Note: If you already know the following information scroll down to the article title in maroon below the seven asterisks.  However, I strongly recommend reading this introduction until you really ‘own’ it.  In addition, post The Great News where you’ll see it every day.  

Over the last 15 years, and especially during 2019 – 2024, data from a series of experiments at the University of Arizona have definitively demonstrated scientifically that life continues after physical death.  This research was conducted by Gary E. Schwartz PhD, former professor at Harvard and Yale, and pioneer in the fields of behavioral medicine and energy healing.  

Dr. Schwartz is assisted in this work by a team of electrical engineers, software developers, research assistants, evidential mediums, and postmaterial luminaries at the Laboratory for Advances in Consciousness and Health.  (To learn more about the SoulPhone Project and lab, visit LACH.Arizona.edu.  To learn about postmaterial luminaries, see article #31 at SoulProof.com) 

The Demo SoulSwitch is a binary (Yes / No) SoulSwitch device that postmaterial persons (the so-called ‘deceased’) can use to answer questions, verify their identity, and begin providing information to help many people and our planet.  This device should be ready for beta testing by the summer of 2024.  After sessions with project volunteers and larger donors, we will share data that scientifically demonstrates life continues after bodily death.  However, this ‘reveal’ will initially occur as an ‘incremental trickle’ versus a ‘sudden splash’.   Over time and under optimal conditions, we will gradually amplify how widely this news is shared. 

Likewise, demonstrations of this technology will occur in a stepwise fashion.  We anticipate, but cannot guarantee, that full announcements and demonstrations will occur by spring 2025.  These decisions were made in April 2024 after many strategic planning discussions with core project team members.  The many factors involved are much more complex than you might imagine. 

See articles #1, 60, and 115 for an overview of the scientific, clinical, and experiential evidence that indicates – with 99.9% certainty – that consciousness survives bodily death.  This collective evidence also shows – with very high degrees of certainty – The Great News that you and everyone else:

  1. continue to live after your earthly body dies. 
  2. can interact with ‘departed’ loved ones now and after you pass on. 
  3. are integral, infinite, eternal, and beloved parts of Source Energy now and always. 
  4. receive guidance and support from angels, guides, master teachers, etc. 
  5. are sacredly interconnected with all people, animals, and nature. 
  6. have special purposes for having this earthly experience now. 
  7. may manifest in other simultaneous time / space realities now and after bodily death. 
  8. have everything you need to enjoy an optimal earthly experience – no matter what your past or current circumstances. 
  9. can find meaning, as well as opportunities for growth and service, amidst your toughest changes and challenges. 
  10. co-create how heavenly your life feels – whether living on earth or elsewhere – by your predominant thoughts, words and actions. 
  11. can likely use SoulPhone technology in the future to communicate with postmaterial loved ones and access wisdom from luminaries who can help us heal our world.  

Statements #1, 2, and 11 are based on definitive scientific research.  The other statements are based on: (a) clinical research: near-death experiences, past life memories and regressions, perinatal experiences, life between lives sessions, shared crossings, terminal lucidity cases, and deathbed visions; and (b) evidencefrom firsthand experiences: after-death communications, out-of-body experiences, spiritually transformative experiences, electronic voice projection / instrumental transcommunication, and other ways of knowing.

This is, obviously, a new and exciting era for humanity.  When understood and internalized – even just a bit – The Great News can help you make the shift:         

  • FROM thinking, believing, and acting as if your time on earth is unfair, meaningless, cruel, and ends with cessation of consciousness or the possibility of endless suffering. 
  • TO thinking, believing, and acting as if this earthly experience is a totally meaningful, safe, and magnificent adventure amidst forever.

Conscious language can help you adopt a greater reality perspective and live based on the second bulleted worldview.  And that, in turn, can help you create the greatest life YOU have envisioned, fulfill your purposes for being on earth, serve others, and enjoy a magnificent journey.  In the pursuit of using more conscious / accurate terms, l:   

  1. Will use the term ‘YOU’ to describe the totality of your energy / being. Your real self may manifest in different spacetime ways simultaneously since only approximately 50% of your consciousness is needed to have an earthly experience. The term ‘YOU’ recognizes both of these possibilities. 
  2. Won’t use the terms ‘die, departed, deceased, or dead’ without single quotation marks since those have strongly entrenched and erroneous meanings indicating an end of life. 
  3. Will use the terms ‘bodily death’ and ‘death of the earthly form’ to remind you that only the earth-suit dies. The rest – all the intelligence, love, personality, memories, preferences, sense of humor, and much more – continues living in other parts of the field of all possibilities. 
  4. Will use the terms changed worlds, passed on, transitioned and others that aptly describe a continuation of consciousness after bodily death. 
  5. Will primarily refer to those who have passed on as postmaterial persons. That term recognizes the points in #3. I also will use soul, consciousness, essence, and awareness. 
  6. Will primarily refer to ‘physical humans living on earth’ as material persons. Why? Because those terms within single quotation marks may apply to postmaterial persons.  That is, they can have physicality, visit earth, and are still human in meaningful ways.
  7. Will use the terms lower versus higher energies, emotions, and ways of being. These descriptors are not critical, judgmental, or subjective; rather, they are based on objective measures by, for example, David Hawkins PhD, MD author of Power Versus Force. He and other researchers found that higher-energy emotions of peace, joy, and love calibrate at 600, 540, and 500 respectively.  Conversely, lower-energy emotions of anger, fear, and guilt calibrate at 150, 100, and 30.  To be clear, energy / consciousness is who and what you really are, not just how you are feeling.  Your predominant energies create the quality of your life and the nature of your earthly or other time-space experience. 
  8. Will use single quotations marks with words such as ‘lose and fail’.  The Great News and collective afterlife evidence can expand your worldview about what seem to be losses and failures.  We can’t accurately judge the big picture of life – what is lost or how we failed – with our limited human senses.   

Note: To recognize and respect different genders and sexual identifications, I will alternate using ‘he’ or ‘she’ and related pronouns.  Depending on a person’s orientation, one, both, or neither of those may apply.

Multilocation / Parallel Realities / Simultaneous Experiences

Could you be having more than one life experience at the same time . . . but not know it? 

This is a very deep subject so stay with me as I share foundational understandings.  To be clear, there is no scientific research to document this; however, there is some clinical and experiential evidence. 

I first heard about the concept of viewing life from multiple perspectives simultaneously from Native American paintings and teachings from three friends who teach indigenous wisdom.  A photo of a Native American warrior in profile caught my attention.  Above him was a bear, pine trees, then an eagle.  Above that was the moon and stars. 

One of the teachers saw me studying the painting and asked what my thoughts were about it. 

‘That he is experiencing life in other ways than just being a human.’ I replied.  A smile and nod told me I was correct. 

In college, I read books by Carlos Castaneda describing personal experiences of Yaqui Indians about this ability.  I found the topic fascinating and made a mental note to learn more.  Over time, I heard the phrases parallel, simultaneous, and alternate realities.  Another term for this is bilocation that describes being in more than one place at a time.  The term ‘multilocation’ describes being in more than two, and perhaps many, places simultaneously. 

David Deutsch PhD, a leading theoretical physicist at the University of Oxford, proposed the existence of parallel universes.  Applying the laws of quantum physics, he argues that you simultaneously live in innumerable parallel existences or states of being.  You live not in a single universe, Dr. Deutsch said, but in a vast and rich multiverse in which other versions of yourself live out other options you’ve encountered.  Even after your current physical body dies, other copies of you may remain alive in other realities.

Michael Newton PhD, founder of Life Between Lives (LBL) therapy, and his team have worked with tens of thousands of people from around the world.  Over decades, these clients provide impressively consistent reports about this source of clinical data. 

One LBL report is that, on average, only about 25% of a person’s total energy is needed during an earthly incarnation.  The rest may experience other slices of life as an animal, plant, or formed or formless nonearthly being.  Clients also reported that part of a person’s consciousness never leaves Home and hence remains merged with Source Energy. 

Most of the descriptions above of multilocation consider that it is an unconscious process.  That is, the person on earth was only consciously aware of their earthly experience despite other simultaneous manifestations of their energy. 

Over the last four years, I’ve had many conversations with Gary E. Schwartz PhD about the nature of reality.  He is a systems theory expert, co-founder of behavioral medicine, premiere researcher in the field of consciousness survival, two-time near death experiencer, Harvard PhD, and more.  We agree that cyclical life events may be best viewed as a series of virtual reality experiences.  While living on earth, many people enjoy reading different books, watching movies, and visiting interesting locales.  We infer that postmaterial persons – those who are no longer living on earth – may want to do the same. 

Eternity is a very long time; it makes sense that forever beings would want to experience different parts of reality by having what seem to be actual visits.  However, these excursions may actually be more like virtual reality programs: the person / consciousness is one with the One and, at the same time, can pretend to be a separate being who can really die.  This latter perspective is extraordinarily useful for immersing oneself in a variety of settings to learn, grow, and understand.  It’s a cosmic and open-ended way to walk a mile in the shoes of others.    

To review, two simultaneous views of reality are perhaps the best way to envision Life:

  1. From a dualistic perspective, you appear to be a separate physical being who suffers, changes, and dies. After this earthly experience, you can choose to have other seemingly separate experiences in distinct times as, for example, a Viking in the 15th century and a peasant women in the 18th 

  2. At the same time, your consciousness is always one with the One and part of Source. It may choose to play different roles and explore with part of that awareness.  Seeing this perspective, even a little, can greatly lighten your struggles and suffering while on earth.  Knowing who you are also helps you realize that these various experiences are brief adventures that can aid growth, learning, service, and enjoyment. 

In 2018, as described in our book Greater Reality Living, I asked several questions of the A-Team with Dr. Schwartz and a top evidential medium present.  These postmaterial luminaries have provided SoulPhone Project team members snippets of information delivered by research mediums.  To learn more about this fascinating topic, visit Hypothesized Collaborators at SoulPhone.org.  We aren’t saying much about who is on the A-Team these days but, rather, will let them speak for themselves when reliable ‘spirit’ communication technology exists.  However, we shared in our book that Albert Einstein, David Bohm, Nikola Tesla and three other very well known luminaries were present. 

One of the questions I asked was about their ability to experience life from more than one vantage point at the same time.  (I asked this because we didn’t want to detract from their current goals by asking them to assist the SoulPhone R & D.  We wouldn’t feel so badly if, however, they could indeed multilocate.)   

I asked the big question: ‘Can you be in more than one place at the same time?’  Several of the attending A-Team members purportedly said: ‘Yes, easily.’  I replied, ‘Are you saying that you can be in more than two places simultaneously?’  They readily agreed as if that were child’s play.  My curious nature then had to ask: ‘What is the limit? Five, ten, twenty, fifty?’  (I felt like an auctioneer: ‘Do I hear 60?)  The luminaries present agreed that they could, on average, be in 50 or more places at the same time doing different tasks with various people. 

I’m not ready to leave earth, but I am really looking forward to consciously multilocating after I change worlds.  Finally, we will be able to learn, enjoy, and achieve all that is on our lists.  It would be like having fifty clones in different forms.   

When I work with bereaved parents and family members, I share the possibility of parallel realities.  It’s an immense potential comfort since grieving persons may actually be together right now in another time / space possibility with their beloved ‘departed’ ones.  My mind envisions the grieving persons – with their obstructed views of life – mourning deeply.  However, at the same time, they are sitting with their child and watching it from another vantage point. 

This model is especially sensible if, indeed, we choose major life events with soul mates who play the roles of family, friends, and enemies.  For example, souls pretending to just be grieving parents are watching the drama unfold with the soul pretending to just be ‘the dead child.’  Everyone is rooting for the grieving persons, encouraging them to remember the big picture of life, and let go of fear and misinformation. 

The possibility of multilocation is also a big relief to those who struggled about which fork in the road to take.  If Dr. Deutsch is correct, parts of their consciousness explore both paths and the resultant outcomes. 

And, as mentioned, there is the prospect of having more time to enjoy and explore the vastness and richness of life. 

I hope this article helps you experience more peace, joy, love, gratitude, enthusiasm, and other higher energy emotions now and always.
