The Here After

Over the past few years I've been fascinated by the development of the spiritual science movement, and the life-changing potential it is bringing to the ongoing evolution of the human race. Scientific research is now collaborating with timeless spiritual wisdom to assist in the demystification of our existence. It's now an accepted fact that all things are made of energy, and energy never dies - it just changes forms. There is now a great deal of scientific research that is focused on the age old question of: Is there life after death?

Last Tuesday I interviewed Dr. John L. Turner on my Urbanology radio program on WHCR 90.3 FM (www.whcr.org). Dr. Turner is a neurosurgeon, now living in Hawaii, who's the author the best selling book Medicine, Miracles, and Manifestations: A Doctor’s Journey Through the Worlds of Divine Intervention, Near –Death Experiences, and Universal Energy. Dr. Turner is one of many scientific researchers who are developing evidence that consciousness persists after the death of the physical body. A great deal of this research will be the subject of a 2011 television series called Proof.

After my interview with Dr. Turner I did a little research on my own and was surprised at how much research has been done on the subject of consciousness functioning independently of the body. Dr. Raymond Moody has two books that are case studies on near-death-experiences (NDE’s) and shared death experiences (SDE’s). The first book, Life After Death, gives a great deal of information and research on NDE’s, and the second book, Glimpses of Eternity: Sharing A Loved One’s Passage From This Life to The Next, focuses on interviews of families who experienced the mysterious phenomenon of shared death experiences. Experiences that allowed more that one person to see things such as beautiful lights, or hear music upon the death of a loved one.

We have been programmed to fear death. Books, movies, and perhaps even religion, has developed a mindset that may very well change in the near future. This may not be easy for many to digest, but it is something to think about. If a TV is broken the TV signal is still alive. If humans are but a solid form of energy, who is to say that after the body is gone the consciousness signal cannot continue to exist?

I find this subject interesting because I understand the healing power of energy. I also know that love is the highest form of healing energy that humans possess. You must have an open mind and faith in something greater than yourself to utilize this energy.

This is why I believe it is possible to communicate with a loved one who is no longer with you if you truly believe that you can. Do not allow fear of the unknown to prevent you from exploring the possibilities of life after life. I suggest you visit Dr. Turner’s website, www.johnlturner.com. It could open a new world to explore here - and the here after.
