A Near Death Experience that mirrors the Flipside reports

I'm a member of IANDS and have been asked to share my research at a number of their chapters. It's the International Association for Near Death Studies, a wonderful organization, created by scientists and others to share, study, examine without prejudice, experiences people have had during a near death experience.  I spoke at their recent convention in Orlando.


I got the following NDE report in my email today and wanted to share it with fans of FlipsideThis NDE was reported to the organization, and is presented here anonymously. All rights to this story, and reproduction is copyrighted by IANDS. 

The person experiencing this event has a number of things happen that exactly mirror what people under deep hypnosis (as pioneered by Michael Newton, and reported on in "Flipside: A Tourist's Guide on How to Navigate the Afterlife.")  Michael Newton had over 7000 clients over the course of his 30 year career say roughly the same things about the journey of souls (as reported in his books "Journey of Souls" "Destiny of Souls" "Live Between Lives" and "Memories of the Afterlife") where they describe this same journey over and over again - it didn't matter what the person's gender or background was, they all had roughly the same experience. 

Dr. Helen Wambach ("Life Before Life") reported the same results from her work about a decade prior to Michael Newton's - a psychologist who used hypnosis to ask people about their journey, and cataloged them. She had over 2000 people say the same things about the journey - choosing our lifetimes (which is reported in this NDE).


Dr. Bruce Greyson (Dean Radin/Youtube)
After meeting Dr. Bruce Greyson, founder of IANDS at the University of Virginia, he pointed out to me that science doesn't consider "hypnosis" to be a valid scientific tool.  I pointed out that it apparently didn't matter who asked the questions, or where on the planet the questions were asked, people had the same replies about their journey.  But as a result of that conversation, I expanded my research in "It's a Wonderful Afterlife" to include people who had near death experiences, and then people who had near death experiences, but also examined them afterwards via hypnosis, to see if they could access new information from them.

That's what led me to "Hacking the Afterlife" - which goes further afield, speaking to mediums who appear to be able to access people no longer on the planet.  But in the case of this report, I wanted to point out that there is a journey to a "library" for this person - which is consistent in the flipside reports; no library is every described precisely the same, just as no rainbow is the same to everyone - we all observe them from our own perspective.

I'd also point out that it "appears" that there is no time on the flipside, this has been a source of discussion in most of my books.  What I'm getting is that time exists over there, just "relatively differently."  What appears to be things happening simultaneously, is also an experience.  It's just that it's so different than what is experienced here, it "feels that way."  What I've learned is that the future is not set - there are likely outcomes, so no one can see or predict the future precisely because it is not locked in stone.  People do have free will - to change their minds - and when they do, the future changes as well.

It also implies that life is predetermined - but it's no more so than a play is pre-determined.  We get on stage with 3 x 5 cards, know what people we're supposed to encounter and what role we want to play - but that can change at any time. We have to improvise to adjust with whatever happens, and that's where the lessons come into play. We may sign up to experience something difficult, or to play the role of someone difficult, but we have the ability to say "No thanks, I'm done playing that role, I'm putting my rifle down, and no longer doing what I was tasked (and agreed) to do."  Free will means just that - we are free to change our minds.

But that's a matter of fine tuning - and also its important to remember that not everyone has this same experience.  They may be similar, but everyone sees or experiences these events differently.  That being said, it's worth repeating.  Here is the anonymous story that I got in my email today from IANDS.

"The following is the Monthly Near-Death Experience (NDE) for October 2016, provided as a service to members of the International Association for Near-Death Studies (IANDS). This selection was taken from accounts submitted to IANDS and is provided here anonymously.

Following an accident, this woman felt she spent 60 years in heaven and learned everything there was to know about the universe. When she was sent back to her body, it was difficult to fit into it, although she had only been gone 30 minutes in Earth time. She shares some of the things she learned; for example, that nothing is right or wrong, and that there is no time. She explains that our brain filters reality while we are in our bodies, and it creates the appearance of linear time. She affirms that we choose our lives and that everything that happens is essential for our learning."

_______________________________________________________________
Sixty Years in Heaven, Thirty Minutes Earth Time – from www.iands.org:

It was a warm, sunny Sunday afternoon of the Labor Day long weekend 1977. My friend and co-worker picked me up to go to a BBQ at a friend’s house. As we were proceeding through an intersection, a sports car ran the light and slammed right into the side of us. 
I remember hearing a crunch of metal and a huge jolt as we skidded towards the curb. Then everything slowed down and I remember watching the windshield shatter in slow motion. It looked like frost forming on glass. I looked out the passenger window and watched as the concrete light pole got closer and closer. I "knew" I wouldn't have a chance of getting out of this alive! As that thought was in my mind, everything stopped, no sound, no movement, everything seemed suspended in mid-air! I "felt" a presence surround me, then a SWOOSHING sound, like helicopter blades were really close.

All of a sudden, I was moving up, really fast. I felt like I was being embraced very gently, someone or something was holding me, and I knew I would be OK. The sound got louder and we went faster. All I could see (or sense) was white light, very bright but I could look at it—no problem.  I remember looking up and seeing white, then looking down and seeing the accident scene; it was surreal.  I felt a huge sense of peace and calmness. I knew everything would be fine. We "arrived" at the foot of a very large cobblestone path. Ahead I could "see" a large city to the left and a beautiful field to the right. A babbling stream ran along the path. The city was constructed of luminescent glass; the buildings shimmered in radiant colors I had never seen before!  I could see children, adults, cats, dogs, birds, butterflies (lots of butterflies), and every kind of animal, playing and singing in the meadow. I wanted to immediately join them!

It was then I could "see" my "guide" (for lack of a better word). He was very handsome and about 30/35 years old. He was dressed in a brown/beige robe and I immediately knew that I knew him! 

(Note from RM: In Newton's books he mentions that we all have a "spirit guide" and some have more than one. In the 35 sessions of hypnosis I've filmed, there has always been at least one guide to help us along.)

He smiled and said (actually it was telepathic), "come on, follow me."  I was led to one of the buildings. As we approached, the buildings got higher and higher until they disappeared into the clouds.  We entered into what looked to be a library of sorts; it had multiple levels and it was made of marble and dark wood. All I could see were scrolls, from top to bottom. Most were rolled, some were cloth, some were raspy paper, some were flat and etched in marble. It was the most amazing thing I had ever seen! Lots of "people" were there, bustling around. They ALL looked at me and seemed very happy to see me. Some even cheered!

(Note from RM: Not everyone sees a library of souls during their hypnosis session, or during a near death experience. But I have had people explore these libraries, examine "books" or "scrolls" or "golden cups" or even "video screens" where people explore and examine previous lives.)

I was then led to a room that resembled a conservatory. As soon as I was left alone, the walls came to life! 360 degrees of "movies" all projected at once. I watched the domino effect of what harsh and unkind words and actions would do to people, how it would start with one person and spiral down to 300 people. I "felt" the anger and sadness of everyone! I thought I was going to explode! I was emotionally shaken to the core. That was the only semi-negative thing that happened to me during my visit there. 

(Note from RM: this "past life review" is often reported in NDE's but also in between life hypnosis sessions. We get a chance to "feel" all the joy or negative actions we've done to others. It's a powerful experience.  It also points to the idea that we don't want to harm others - because we will experience the pain they've felt.  It's part of our learning experience in the classroom of life.)

I was asked to return to the "library" as I was to start my studies, as in reading the scrolls (it was more like downloading into my consciousness). I read and studied there for 60 years!!! Most were people’s lives from beginning to end. I was allowed to "feel" the emotions of most people. Some were vibrant, some were sort of boring. A lot that was downloaded was information.

This will be hard to explain, but I'll do my best. We (here on earth) have a role to play. We choose our lives even before we are born...whether we chose a good life or a bad one...it matters not, because there is NO good or bad...it's just your chosen role...and ALL lives lived are essential for our evolution and development. That's why we have memory. WE LEARN AND GROW because we have different lifestyles, beliefs, opinions, etc. Sorry to say this, BUT even the most evil—death, destruction, disease—is essential! Think about it, if everything was ALWAYS good and going your way, if all relationships were good and everyone got what they wanted, over the years it would get pretty boring and stagnant. I know it sounds wonderful, but it wouldn’t let us grow much, would it? 

Also, something else that might be hard to comprehend is that there is no such thing as time! Your life is happening all at once, meaning your past/ present/ future are all one bubble. It's our brain (filter) that makes this so-called time linear. Huh? I know...strange! That might raise questions of "free will." Do we have it? Yes and no. Just because your life is predetermined, you don't know what the outcome will be. Things can change on a dime. Always remember that!  I knew everything about the universe...why/ how/ what's the point of it all? I was there for so long it was hard not to know everything! When I returned, I couldn't remember a lot of information that I had received. I assumed it was intentional.

(Note from RM: As mentioned, "things can change on a dime."  Things change because people can and do change their minds about what they signed up for. Like an actor suddenly shifting gears on stage and saying "I don't like this part I'm playing. I'm going to play someone else now. I learned my lesson, let's switch this up.")

I will never forget when I was told I had to go back. I was stunned. I wanted to stay. I argued. I didn't win. I made a deal though—that when I did return I would stay. But I guess I had said that before, apparently many times! So I had to squeeze my big expanse back into that tiny body that was, by now, half way laying outside that wrecked car. I couldn't fit very well. It took me 6 months to get comfortable. I came to in the ambulance. The EMT was glad to see me he said. My friend that was driving spent 3 months in hospital: broken pelvis/ arm/ femur/ crushed foot. I walked away without a scratch. The insurance adjuster was amazed I got out alive, let alone nothing broken. Huh, imagine that! So now you know time is irrelevant! 60 years in heaven/ 30 minutes earth time! So, that about concludes my experience. Lots of other things happened there, but this is long enough! LOL.

(Note from RM: This time element is repeated in my reports. On this blog there's a discussion of how "two months" feels like a "millisecond" - and in my books, how 25 years here felt like "ten minutes" over there. Of course it's relative - but if 30 minutes here feels like 60 years over there, or 30 years here feels like ten minutes over there - you can see how time exists over there, but just in a really different paradigm.  If 25 years here feels like ten minutes, then 250 years would feel like 100 minutes, and 2500 years would feel like 1000 minutes - or roughly 20 some hours.  So running into someone who lived 2500 years ago, wouldn't seem all that long ago from a Flipside perspective.  I haven't been able to get my mind around how to describe it - perhaps what it looks like from a hummingbird's perspective - but use the example of "it feels like being inside a pool of water" to being "outside the pool of water" - to describe being in these different realms.)

FOOTNOTE: I decided to share this after almost 40 years because of an odd series of events that happened to me recently. The main one was I discovered who my "guide" was. He was with me the whole time I was there. When I retired, I returned to my small home town and I happened to walk by a church. I looked toward it and then it hit me (LIKE A TON OF BRICKS), my guide was a friend and school mate that passed when he was 12 years old. It was him, without a doubt in my mind! I knew I knew him.

(Note from RM: This is "new information."  If this person was "creating" or imagining that person as his or her guide, they would have instantly recognized him from their past. But in this case, they did not recognize him, other than the feeling of knowing him for a long time. Dr. Eben Alexander ("Proof of Heaven") had a similar experience, his "spirit guide" was a woman he'd never met before but seemed like he'd known forever. Later, he discovered that she was a sister who died, a sister he wasn't aware of and had never met in this lifetime. But in his near death experience, he recognized her as someone he'd known "forever."  Only afterwards did he discover who she was - "new information" that can't be ascribed to cryptomnesia or hypoxia. My two cents.)

Oracles of Tibet and Manhattan Beach



I met with two Oracles this week.  One is from Manhattan Beach, the other is from Dharamsala.

Here's the Oracle of Manhattan Beach:
The Oracle of Manhattan Beach Jennifer Shaffer
She works with law enforcement agencies nationwide to help people find missing persons.  I've interviewed her extensively for the book "Hacking the Afterlife."  I can vouch for everything that's in the book with regard to observations she's made about the flipside.  I cite the evidence when she talks about things that she couldn't know, but I don't know, but later prove to be accurate.

You can find out more about her at JenniferShaffer.com - but sometimes we get together for lunch and when that happens, you never know who is going to show up.  As I noted here earlier, Michael Newton showed up last week - the man I made my documentary about. (see the post below) 


The reason I'm saying "he" showed up - instead of saying "someone who appeared to be Michael Newton" is because in his messages to me through Jennifer, he dealt with "new information."  That is information I didn't know that he knew, and later had to look up to confirm whether it was accurate. And it was.

A few days ago, I had the opportunity to see my old friend Thubten Ngodup, better known as the Medium of the State Oracle of Tibet, or informally as Kutenla.  I have interviewed him in the past, we met in the 90's and I produced a CD for the Nechung Monastery


Video from the CD "Nechung Monks" in Dharamsala, India

I met Kutenla long before I began this flipside research, but of course, it's all part of the same endeavors. 
 What's the difference between a Tibetan Oracle and a Manhattan Beach one?

Practice, practice, practice.  

Sorry, that's an old joke.

Basically Jennifer sees, hears, senses things as a medium that are related to the person who is sitting in front of her.  They may be relatives coming forth, friends who've passed, or just images coming from her spirit guides to help the person in front of her identify what they are trying to impart, or who they are trying to connect with.  

This can be an emotional experience, especially when someone comes through who has recently died, as my dear friend experienced a few weeks ago, when her brother came through and proved to his sister that not only was he still in existence, he'd been keeping an eye on her the entire time.

But in the case of the Tibetan Oracle - Oracles have a long history in Tibet.  They were typically someone in the village who had the ability to "see" into the future, and was consulted over crops and all kinds of things that people needed to know about.  Typically the Kuten would go into a trance, and then report whatever it was that he saw or heard.  Kutenla is the "chief" Oracle for Tibet - and advises them on any number of things, from his Holiness the Dalai Lama's travel schedule, to what location a hospital might be built, or what might or might not occur.

What's his and her rate of success with predicting the future?  Well, I can tell you that based on my research the future is not set.  So the ability to predict "likely outcomes" depends on a lot of things.  So if you're seeking out an oracle for a glimpse into the future, remember that it is not set, it is not locked down, and they can only tell you what they're feeling sensing or experiencing.

In the case of the Oracle of Tibet, he goes into a trance during his experience. He's completely unaware of what he's saying or doing, and he speaks in a 13th century dialect that only a few monks know, and can translate for him.  If you're familiar with flipside reports, you may consider that the 13th isn't really all that far away from this time and place - and being able to talk to someone who once was on the planet and is still accessible, is the basis of "Hacking the Afterlife."

I know that the previous Oracle saved the Dalai Lama's life when he escaped Tibet while under attack from the Chinese.  That event was reported in the film Kundun. There are many other instances where he has been completely accurate, and from what I've seen of his trance sessions, there is definitely something unusual going on during them.  His physical features change for the most part, his tongue turns black for example, and other abnormalities.  

I'm not making any claims here - my point remains the same - these things should be studied, examined, but when you add them to the work that I've been doing on the architecture of the afterlife, they aren't as odd as they seem.

The Oracle in Action:



So today over lunch, Jennifer and I were visited by a friend who died recently - and his daughter who died this past weekend.  Even though I was close to both of them I was able to ask some pretty specific questions to each of them about their experience.  She said she was experiencing "being like Peter Pan" without any strings, moving around.  In his case he seemed to be hanging out with friends and doing things he always did; golf, ride around in a boat.


Both of them gave me specific details so that I could impart them to their loved ones - in response to the question, "Is there anything you can tell me or show Jennifer that is so unique that your loved ones will know beyond a shadow of doubt that it's a message from you?"  They both gave me specific events, and when I report them to their loved ones, I'll report back here.

Sunset Santa Monica

Then someone I knew briefly showed up and had some specific messages for a close family member about her friend.  I don't know the friend, I know of the friend, but the details were pretty specific, and I've passed them along.  I have no idea how they'll be taken upon hearing, because after all, when you've been a skeptic of all of things for so long, unless you experience them for yourself, it's very hard to accept or even hear them.



Kathleen Bird York's Cub Pic. Cool.


This fellow who spoke to Jennifer was a Cubs fan - and he said "We're all enjoying what's going on with the Cubs up here too."  Meaning that the success of our favorite teams doesn't die with us - it continues on.  How cool is that?

In response to Neil deGrasse Tyson's view of the afterlife...

Came across this interview yesterday: (actually the part on the afterlife begins at 2:22)




As my old Harvard/Oxford trained professor Julian Baird used to say "I'd agree with you but then we'd both be wrong."  Neil says "No one remembers what it was like before they were born."  That's not accurate.  

Michael Newton ("Journey of Souls") had over 7000 cases where people remembered not only "before they were born" by why they were born.  Dr. Helen Wambach ("Life Before Life") had over 2000 cases where people remember the same thing - why they chose to come here, why they chose their lifetimes.  Usually it's to "help someone else" or to "fulfill some kind of an agreement."  These memories are accessible to people, if only they look for them.  

 Just because someone doesn't "remember before they came to the planet" doesn't mean they can't remember it - nor does it mean that there isn't an experience prior to it. As Neil points out - everyone experiences a rainbow differently, why wouldn't everyone experience the afterlife in a different fashion? 

 Perhaps Neil might look to Giordano Bruno, and actually consider what Bruno experienced that caused him to be burned at the stake. Bruno claimed he'd had an "out of body experience" where he saw other galaxies.  His consciousness left his body and went for a trip around the galaxy - which he reported on, and was later killed for not denying it. 

 Just because others haven't had the same experience doesn't mean that others can't or don't have that experience. Insects can see UV light, humans cannot, but that doesn't mean that it's not there. 

People have near death experiencies where there is no oxygen to the brain, and yet they are fully conscious - for example, the man who came back to tease his doctor about the surgeon's "orange tennis shoes." 

 Why was that so unusual? The man had been blind from birth. Had never seen "the color orange" in this lifetime. If Dr. Tyson examines Dr. Sam Parnia's work, or Dr. Bruce Greyson's work at UVA, (or Mario Beauregard PhD, or Gary Schwartz PhD) he'll see that these scientists are arguing that consciousness is not confined to the brain.  (I refer to Dr Greyson's youtube talk "Is Consciousness Produced by the brain?")

 And if it is NOT confined to the brain, and if thousands of people can remember verifiable previous lifetimes, or in the case of my latest book "Hacking the Afterlife" are able to learn "new information" from people no longer on the planet - that is, information that cannot by cryptomnesia, hypoxia or any other reason - information that they could only have gotten from someone clearly not on the planet, but who can answer questions or give new details about their lives --- then it behooves us to examine this information as a scientist would.  Without prejudice.

At some point thousands of people saying the same things about the afterlife becomes a dataset from which to examine why that might be happening. It's not a belief, or a philsophy, or a religion - it's data. What does the data say? Well the data says consistently, and can be replicated, that we choose to come to the planet. And that when we're done with the play that we've performed, or the task we've accomplished, we make a conscious choice to "go home" (as all 35 people I've filmed under deep hypnosis have claimed.)

It behooves us to try to examine the research not with a preconception about the nature of what we want reality to be - but for what it is.  And when you examine these cases, people generally don't find themselves lying in bed thinking "oh gee, why do I need to get out of bed? What's the point if I've lived many lifetimes, and I'll experience many more?" In the research, we find people eager, anxious, happy to get up and help others. Anxious and excited and happy to come to this planet to experience life as we know it. And now that they're aware of it, have no fear about leaving it.

 So #LarryKing, #NeildeGrasseTyson if you want to end your fear of death, or actually examine reports from the flipside, check out this research: "Flipside: A Tourist's Guide on How to Navigate the Afterlife" "It's a Wonderful Afterlife" and "Hacking the Afterlife." Or my documentary "Flipside: A Journey into the Afterlife" where I film people under deep hypnosis talking about past lives, and their life between lives - and included Michael Newton's last filmed interview.

I'll be on Coast to Coast with George Noory on Nov 4, 2016 to discuss these topics. I invite y'all to tune in.

A conversation from the flipside with the recently departed Michael Newton

With Jennifer Shaffer (.com) and Scott De Tamble (lightbetweenlives.com)

For fans of my work, you know that as of late, I've been actively reaching out to the flipside to hear any messages, especially ones that contain new information.  That is something I could not have known, or whomever I'm talking to could not have known prior to our speaking.  Information that cannot be ascribed to cryptomnesia (hearing it somewhere else subconsciously) or hypoxia (lack of oxygen caused hallucinations).

The point is to demonstrate that people who used to be on the planet have not disappeared, are not "ended" but continue to be accessible on the flipside, albeit in a different format.  That's the premise of "Hacking the Afterlife."

My work has brought me into the world of mediumship - it's not something that I sought out, but at some point realized that while most people seek out psychics or mediums to "predict their future," mediums or "intuitives" are also conduits to the flipside.  Or to put it more succinctly, their energetic structure is more aligned with the frequencies on the flipside, and therefore have a better capacity for communicating with people there.

An intuitive may see or feel or sense the answer to a question - may be given a visual, or may imagine a visual that answers the question.  One can argue that it doesn't matter "where" the answer comes from - if it's new information, then it proves that the information isn't coming from this realm.

Certainly there are people who can and should be taken with a grain of salt in this field - you don't have to put on a pyramid hat in order to examine the data - meaning that as long as the questions don't devolve into predictions or love interest, depending upon the person being asked the questions, they can gather verifiable information. (The reasons I mention the above caveats, is because by and large psychics are asked the two questions; "who is my soul mate?" or "what's going to happen to me?")  

My research shows that your soul mate will or won't show up in your lifetime based on an agreement you've already made with them (so no need to hunt them out) and that the future is not set (There appear to be "likely outcomes" that a medium may be able to accurately predict given a certain time frame, but since we have free will, anyone can screw up that likely outcome by changing their mind or plan at any time.)  So as long as we are asking "real time questions" to a medium, we can get answers from people who are currently no longer on the planet.

This past week I was on the Beyond Belief show with George Noory. Just prior I had lunch with Jennifer Shaffer, who appears in a number of chapters of Hacking the Afterlife.  

We were talking about a mundane topic when she said suddenly “Your friend, Michael Newton just showed up over your shoulder.”  I asked how he was doing on the other side and she said “He’s telling me that he came to visit you in a dream.” 


Michael Newton
At the moment, I didn't remember him showing up in a dream, but later my wife reminded me that the night after he died, she'd asked if he'd "shown up" and I had said "Yes, I asked him what his experience was like, and he said "different."  I didn't know if he meant different than he'd reported, or "just different" than it was before.

Taking the opportunity to ask someone questions who has shown up - even though we were in a noisy restaurant, I took out my cell phone and recorded the following conversation.

I asked him directly; "Hi Michael.  Tell me if your are encountering the “27 different realms that he had told me about.”  (During our interview in 2009, off camera, I'd asked him if during his own between life sessions, he's been to visit the five of six different realms I'd heard about, and he said "Oh, I've been to at least 27.")

She said; “He’s showing me five realms… and two underneath this one.” Then she said “He’s showing me that he’s taking notes.”

I turned my camera on.  It was a noisy restaurant, the transcript as close as I can muster:

RM: “Our question to Michael was… he just showed up spontaneously at our lunch in Manhattan Beach, “You’re taking notes on how to make it easier to communicate from over there to here, or from over here to there?”

Jennifer: “From where I am." He’s taking notes from there, as to help people here… to be able to communicate here…  it’s to help everyone here, work with their conscious mind. He showed me, like a veil, lifting.

"A veil lifting. So is your work helping them communicate better to us over here? Is that what you’re saying? Your life’s work?"

"Yes." He’s talking there, “Because we have everything here,” he says.

Rich: "So we have the ability to talk to them, he’s helping them to have the ability to communicate with us?"

"Right."

"On an energetic level?"

"Yes. A matching level."

After a couple of personal questions about friends in the Newton Institute, I asked:

Rich: "So why did you show up today? Did you show up to tell us (just) that?"

Jennifer: He says “No, I’m here because I’m taking notes.”

"On our conversation?"

“I’m in communication mode.” Yes. “It’s like noetic science but from the other side.”

(Note: “The Institute of Noetic Sciences describes noetic sciences as "how beliefs, thoughts, and intentions affect the physical world" (wiki) This is not a term or concept that I nor Jennifer was familiar with. I have heard of Noetic sciences, most likely through Dan Brown’s novel, but have never used them in a sentence before. So this concept is new information, both to me and Jennifer. Never heard of them, didn't know about them, not a clue. NEW INFORMATION.)

Rich: "Interesting. If there is any way I can help your work, let me know. I’m going on George Noory’s show this weekend “Beyond Belief.” I’m sure your name will come up. Anything you want me to pass along?"
With George Noory

Jennifer: (He says) Tell Richard everything he’s set out to do; he’s done, and then some - he’s surpassed what he planned or signed up for… and beyond that.

Rich: Oh. (flattered, trying to think of something funny, like “will I get an Oscar for that?”) Will I get a lottery number soon?"

Jennifer: "What good would that do?"

Rich: I understand. Very good. (laughter.)

Jennifer: (Laughs). I said to him “So help us along, (with a lottery ticket) and he said, “No, you just have to be and things will come to you.”

Rich: Michael, remind me; what was it that we talked about in my dream?

(Note: When I got home and told my wife Sherry about this conversation, she reminded me that the night after he died, I had a “conversation” with him in a semi-conscious state. Jennifer’s reminding me of it didn’t jog my memory until I spoke to my wife, who said “Remember? You said you spoke to him.”)

Rich: Let me ask you my friend, is there anything you want me to say on the show when your name comes up? Family, friends or people?

Jennifer: (He says) “Everybody can speak to the other side. And that no one does not - not have the capability to do so. Everyone should start, they should start bringing them in closer. He showed me like both of these dimensions, of which there are a gazillion, but he showed me the dimensions of it -- being like at a dinner table where you’re translucent to each other…  yet you still have the energy of other people (that are) with you (but you’re not consciously aware of).

Rich: So people should have a meditation on bringing your friends in, or at a dinner party, imagine your loved ones who are gone, are with you?

Jennifer: I suggested to him, like my idea of having a group called “wine and spirits” (Jennifer’s idea of bringing mediums together over wine and conversation) and he said (laughs) “Not with your group.”

Rich: So an example might be; at Thanksgiving, why not add other people to your table, those are the loved ones you’ve lost you’ve known or would like to know… 


Start talking to folks no longer on the planet. They can hear you.
Jennifer: (He says) "Yes." He just gave the best “Yes!”

Rich: A little bit like Elijah and the Jewish tradition. Put out a chair in case Elijah shows up.

Jennifer: "Yes."

Then Michael had a personal message for me about one of my kids and school.  It was not something that he was aware of while he was on the planet, I hadn't spoken to him via email in years, so how he might have been able to comment on that detail is beyond me. But the comment was very specific, as well as touching, and incredibly rewarding.  He spoke as if it was something he was completely aware of on the flipside, details that I had not shared with Jennifer. 

Another piece of "new information." He specifically told me how to deal with it, and his suggestion was brilliant. Again, he knew nothing of this while he was on the planet - he could only have observed it from his new place and time frame.

Then, as the check came:

Jennifer: (aside) Prince showed up at the end.

(Note: Prince, the musician, showed up at this same restaurant a few months prior, during another lunch. That conversation I filmed and included in “Hacking the Afterlife.”  We were just about to leave, but I said “We can’t not speak to Prince!” JENNIFER HAS NO RECOLLECTION OF THE FOLLOWING.)

Rich: Let’s talk to him. Hello Mr. Prince Rogers Nelson. Does Prince have anything he wants to say on the “Beyond Belief” show?

Jennifer: (He says) Tell him that it’s a “sound note...” he showed me the matrix… tell him “It’s a sound note.” 

(Note: Funny word play as well.  A musician giving us a “sound note.”  It’s a note, just the way Michael was taking notes, but it’s also a musical note, and a spiritual one as well.)

Rich: What’s that mean?

Jennifer: I don’t know. Hang on. (He says) “It’s not how you look, (I think he’s referring to my concern I had about how I “looked on the show” which I did not express to Jennifer, but was on my mind) It’s not what you say, (meaning it’s not the content of what I’m saying on the show) it’s how you vibrate in your awareness. Awareness of one another. In order… In your awareness of the accumulation… So like, he’s showing me that in your awareness, it’s a note – so if your frequency is clear, that’s how you attract someone."  

"Because when you’re in the consciousness of the higher level, where there is no hierarchy… and if you’re bouncing (broadcasting) on a certain level, then that gets through with more potency. When you’re bouncing on a lower level, its fragmented. If it’s fragmented, you’re not able to connect, which logically, you can’t connect -- he’s showing me “You don’t connect well when you’re out of mode of vibration” -- but when you’re not afraid of vibration, (and are able to resonate at a certain pitch) you’re able to then send it out and then receive that higher vibration… 

Rich: A bit like we were saying earlier, when you strike a chord, and all the guitars in a room start to vibrate at that same tone? You hit a note and all the guitars resonate on that same string?

Jennifer: (He says) "Yes."

Rich: So the idea being not higher or lower, but stronger?

Jennifer: (He says) "But not all the same – high frequencies can sound low."
  
Rich: I think he means, higher frequencies meaning from a higher place? Or stronger?

Jennifer: He just showed me this song I listen to “Every rose has its thorns.”

Rich: Higher meaning the place they’re coming from?

Jennifer: (He says) "Right. You can… but if you have a higher (stronger) frequency, you’ll still connect with the people that will come. It’s a matrix."

Rich: My question for you (Prince) .. since we last spoke in this same restaurant two months ago, what does that feel like to you in terms of time, comparatively?

Jennifer: He says “A millisecond – even less than that…” He just told me, “even less than that; it’s continuous.” So like he was here and it’s a continuous dialog. "It’s a continuous dialog with God. Like it’s one.. obviously…"-- He just showed me a goddess, but (it feels like) he’s kidding around with that. (looks at her watch)  I gotta go.

Rich: Prince, thanks for stopping by, we’ll have to get back to you!

In the book "Hacking the Afterlife" Prince makes the observation that he liked the fact that I tend to print verbatim what is said in a conversation.  I've left out the personal references in this missive, but all I can tell you is that we did not set out to "talk to" anyone - we were just hanging out at a local eatery when she noted that someone had shown up in our lunch.



Robin Williams and Prince both appeared during our previous lunch - we did not ask for them to appear - Robin makes an appearance in my book "It's a Wonderful Afterlife" and Prince made an appearance in "Hacking the Afterlife" - but at this point, I had not shown the book to Jennifer, nor mentioned that he was going to appear in the book.  So when he showed up during our conversation and spoke about his chapter in the book, it was "new information" for Jennifer.

The point is - we live in a multi-dimensional reality.  There's much more going on than we can possible imagine.  But we should take the time to look around and perceive it.

As a final note; last night I was talking to someone about a group he's associated with.  He said "They focus on healing the soul so that we no longer have to reincarnate."  I said "Why would we no longer want to incarnate?"  He said "Well, because it's difficult here."

I said, "Think about that for a moment.  What's here? People you love, things you love, trees, sunlight, cappuccinos.  This is heaven. This is the most wonderful place to be.  Back home - back on the flipside, that's a place of unconditional love. But it's all a mental energetic construct - as it is here, of course - but back there trees are not solid. They're squishy because they're focused energy.  Here, you can actually go out and hug a tree, taste a real cappuccino, have a really good slice of pizza."

I said "It reminds me of two instances where avatars showed their devotees the nature of reality. One was Buddha, the other Jesus - Buddha's monks asked "What's nirvana like?" and he put his finger to the Earth and "showed them."  The other was Jesus on the cross, and the two thieves said "What's heaven like?" and Jesus showed them.  

I suggest that both showed them what you're looking at right now. This screen. Your desk. Your handheld cell phone. 

Look up for a moment. Look around you. There's sunlight, you're sitting, you're laughing, you're looking around you. Look at all those happy people walking around you. They're here. They're actually on the planet with you. They're smiling because they know what you know.  This is paradise. This place. This is heaven.

Oh sure, there's a lot about heaven that's problematic - those people who choose to play difficult roles on stage, those people who choose to experience tragedy, or cause pain in others to help them, or help themselves experience the energy of it.. but aside from that... 

At some point all of us got a glimpse of heaven. Woke up and saw the sun shining in through a curtain, the warmth of its rays bringing us out of our slumber. We've breathed fresh air after a spring rain. Experienced the wet smell of leaves in a leaf pile. Felt the rush of diving into a clear pool of water. Experience the smell of mom's cooking luring us to a table, the feel of a dog's nose under your hand, insisting on getting some love. The purr of a cat lying on your chest, it's eyes closed. The song of a child's laughter.

Yes, we already are in heaven. 

We just can't see it.

(I'll be on Coast to Coast AM november 4th. yay!)

Sunday

Back on Coast to Coast on Nov 4th!!!!

Avail at Amazon, Kindle, Audible.com
Had a great time with George Noory on his "Beyond Belief" show.  If you'd like to view it, you need to subscribe to the Gaia TV site.  It's always a delight to talk to George, because he's so conversant with any topic.  We really can roam around a topic.


 I try to point out that I'm not selling a philosophy or a point of view - I'm not trying to join the ranks of New Age authors, nor am I trying to debunk any particular version of reality.  I have chosen an unusual topic of inquiry, which is what people say under deep hypnosis about the afterlife.
The Awakened Prophet Edgar Cayce

I've had a number of people write to me that it upsets them that I'm writing about this material.  I mean it's not ME that upsets them, but what I claim that people are saying consistently under deep hypnosis that upsets them.  I don't really have anything to say about that - because it's not ME doing the talking.  I'm doing the reporting.

So the first book; "Flipside: A Tourist's Guide on How to Navigate the Afterlife" is transcripts of what people say under deep hypnosis, as pioneered by the late Michael Newton.  I interview Michael, his last interview on the topic, and I have transcripts of a number of "between life" hypnotherapy sessions.  I filmed them and then transcribed them verbatim - so people could see for themselves whether or not the hypnotist was "leading" or "guiding" the people under hypnosis in any way.
NDE by H Bosch

I've filmed about 35 of these sessions so far, and have filmed myself doing five of them.  I found that filming myself doing a session was a way of being able to "prove or disprove" what people were saying.  My own experiences are unique to me - yet, there were a number of hallmarks that I experienced that others also report experiencing.  

You can see or read about those in the film "Flipside: A Journey into the Afterlife" and read about it in the book.


Michael Newton's last interview is in Flipside
Which brings me to the second and third books in this series; "It's a Wonderful Afterlife: Further Adventures in the Flipside" Volumes One and Two.  I approached scientists to discuss the research, and when they pointed out that "hypnosis" wasn't considered science, I examined accounts that were considered science - those of near death experiencers.  
Further, I invited these people who'd had a near death experience to explore their event more fully via "between life hypnosis" and reported those in the second and third books.  

I also spoke to PhD's in the forefront of consciousness research, from Gary Schwartz PhD, Mario Beauregard PhD, to Dr. Bruce Greyson (UVA) and other scientists who are out front in the idea that consciousness is not only created by the brain, it may also exist outside of the brain. Again, not my philosophy, not my argument - it's theirs.  I'm just reporting it, and show how consistent these reports are with the others from the Flipside.


Good news: most beloved Prez. Bad news,
you don't get to see the end of the play. Are you in?


And finally we have "Hacking the Afterlife."  My latest book, which is about trying to ask questions to people on the Flipside, either through a medium, or through a fully conscious interview with someone who has experienced a mind altered event, or just by asking simple questions to people who have had no experience with the flipside - and yet they seem to be able to access past lives and a number of other issues.

The second and third part of the book is the research i've been doing for 30 years about the life and death of Amelia Earhart - I focused on the testimony of three different mediums who basically gave me the same information and answers from "Amelia" herself - all information that has never been published and is not part of the official or unofficial record of her life. All I can say is that in the book, she proves that she "still exists" on the Flipside.


Mod squad. With Jennifer Shaffer and Scott De Tamble
And finally, the last third of the book is about Jesus.  Not the Catholic brain freeze religious person that makes us all sit up and take notice (or take offense) but someone on the Flipside who was consistently showing up in my interviews and research.  I ignored his appearing for the past 8 years or so - writing it off the oddness of the research, but at some point realized, he too was trying to communicate from the Flipside.  

Again, I didn't approach this information from the aspect of trying to promote a philosophy, or a way of thinking, or a way of behaving.  I reported it verbatim, as it happened, and allowed "him" or whatever version of him, or whoever this person showing up in different sessions could actually be.  I fully acknowledge I have no physical proof that it is him showing up in these sessions, however the consistency of the reports, and the consistency of reporting about events that may or may not have occurred 2000 years ago, many of which are not widely known, or have never been published or recounted before, forced me to include it in the book.



I did so with a certain amount of trepidation.  There are other people who show up in the book; Edgar Cayce, Robin Williams, Prince and a few friends of mine.  Again, I don't offer these conversations as "proof" of an afterlife, but I do offer them as a jumping off place for people to do their own research, do their own investigation, and come to their own conclusions.

And that's why George is having me on the show again - this time on November 4th.  Coast to Coast AM radio can be found across the US and globe, and we'll be talking about things that aren't normally talked about in the media.  I'm not selling my point of view, nor am I trying to convince anyone to accept what these people are saying consistently about the afterlife, or from the afterlife - all I can do is present them in the most honest way that I can, and report as best I can, all that I've seen or heard. It's up to everyone else to form their own conclusions.
You have been ...invited.
See you on the radio!

Hacking the Afterlife on "Beyond Belief"

I'm going to be on "Beyond Belief" next weekend with George Noory. (Oct 9th) That's his show on GaiaTV.


Hacking the Flipside

It should be another fun adventure - George is one of the greatest interviewers of all time, I haven't a clue as to what he wants to talk about, but he's invited me onto his show.


Couple of dudes talking Flipside.

As I've tried to tell him and his staff - I'm not selling or promoting the idea that people should read or buy "Hacking the Afterlife."  In fact I'm warning people NOT TO BUY THE BOOK.

Why?

Because it's not for everyone.  It's going to be disturbing to some people who don't want to hear what people say about the flipside.  It goes down paths that I've never gone down before, and it is what it is.

What's in the book?
Edgar Cayce
Oh, an interviewer with a channeler who claims to channel Edgar Cayce.  Why is this interesting? Because I ask Edgar why he was so wrong in his predictions of the future.  I also ask him who was supplying the information for his trance sessions - and his answers dovetail completely with the research in "Flipside" and "It's a Wonderful Afterlife."


No caption needed.
I include interviews with three different mediums who claim to be able to access Amelia Earhart.  The first one came to me out of the blue - and told me information about her that I could not find in my extensive research into her life (for my own films, and later for the Fox film "Amelia") - the medium Pattie Canova gave me tips about secrets in her life that were not public.

Some years later, I supplied the questions to a medium who was going to interview her - and that was interesting, because neither the medium or the woman asking the questions (Dr. Medhus and Jamie Butler of "Channeling Erik" fame) knew anything about Earhart's life and death.  But I did.

During that interview, Amelia confirmed a number of the secrets about her - gave new information about them, but refused to answer a question about how she died.  She actually said "If the person who supplied these questions wants to ask me privately I'll tell him."  I missed that detail when I heard the session, but it wasn't until I transcribed it for the book that I became aware of the offer.


Me, Jennifer Shaffer and Scott De Tamble (all in the book)
Out of the blue, medium Jennifer Shaffer (.com) who works with law enforcement on missing person cases (including the FBI and others that I've verified) called me, and on a lark I said "how'd you like to be involved with the most famous missing person case in history?"  Her interview with Amelia confirmed details I knew, but also gave me new information - which has proven to be accurate AFTER the session.  So Amelia gave me clues about her that no one on the planet knew... until now.

Finally, the last third of the book is examining the many reports I've gotten about Jesus still existing on the Flipside, still helping people during a near death experience, and showing up in all kinds of random places.  I decided to let that be part of this book because who am I to hide this information?

So that's why it's a controversial book.  That and I include interviews on the Flipside with Prince Rogers Nelson and Robin Williams.

Again....

I'm not talking to the dead.  I DON'T CLAIM TO SPEAK TO THE DEAD. Jennifer talks to Prince and Robin, but I supplied some of the questions.

I have no abilities in this area. I'm not a hypnotist. I'm not a medium. I'm not a scientist. But I know a few who are.  

I film and report all of these interviews.  So that's what we're talking about next weekened (Oct. 9th - Gaia TV) on George Noory's BEYOND BELIEF.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Giordano Bruno. Warning you. (George was burned at the stake for reporting his out of body experience where he saw the earth going around the sun, and other solar systems)

Wednesday

Robert Lanza on theory of Biocentrism





"We're still operating in an outdated paradigm." Lanza's book "Biocentrism" is groundbreaking, his theory underlines how consciousness is not confined to the brain. 



He doesn't explore the nature of non-reality (existing outside this realm or paradigm, which folks do in "Hacking the Afterlife") but he examines the "nature of reality" from a scientist's pov using quantum logic (which echoes Buddhist philosophy) 



Worth watching if you have 20 minutes to examine the nature of reality. He argues convincingly how the old model of how the universe works is outdated, how "something" outside our realm directs life ("Consciousness" or "God" or "The Enthropic Principal"). Part two appears next to it on youtube...
