  • Though this blog is kaput, its content — appropriately enough — lives on after death!  Recently I published a nonfiction book culled from years of blog posts and also containing a great deal of original work. I call it LIFE & AFTERLIFE, and it's available in a variety of editions, including Kindle, Nook, Kobo, Apple…

  • My one-hour interview with Simon Brown on The Past Lives Podcast is now available online. Stream it here.  The focus, naturally, is my recently released book The Far Horizon. The book deals with reincarnation only in the later chapters. The podcast, despite its name, explores a variety of other topics, as well.

  • This isn't so much a book review as a summary of The Simulation Hypothesis, by Rizwan Virk. I'd highlighted a lot of text in the ebook, so I decided to reproduce many of these highlights as a general indication of what the book is about.  I may do an actual review in the future. For…

  • Let’s consider a series of items, and then look at where they may take us.    Item: During a near-death experience, a man found himself being tormented by demons. Terrified, he reached back into his childhood to the only faith he had ever been taught and prayed to Jesus for salvation. Instantly he found himself lifted…

  • In some earlier blog posts, later collected as an essay, I talked about a diamond as an image of the oversoul or higher self, with each facet of the diamond corresponding to a different incarnate personality. Here I'd like to expand on that idea, taking the purely imaginary case of a particular oversoul and its incarnations.…

  • Here's something that I found interesting in relation to the topic of my last post. I've been reading Dying to be Me, by Anita Moorjani, her account of her powerful NDE and subsequent "miraculous" healing from cancer. The book, though a bit overlong and occasionally repetitious, is clearly a labor of love, and I don't…

  • Update, June 25: I mistakenly attributed quotes from Testimony of Light to a different book by a different author. The error is corrected now. Thanks to Robert McLuhan for noticing the mistake.  — I've often commented on the biggest inconsistency in ostensibly channeled communications about the afterlife — the question of whether or not spirits…

  • As readers of this blog know, I've been puzzled by the divergence between two sets of afterlife reports. One set essentially involves a trip to either a disturbing, hellish limbo or a beautiful paradise (known as Summerland to Spiritualists), while the other set involves an immediate awareness of a higher self that chooses various incarnations…

  • In some of my recent posts I've been looking at the question of a duality in our spiritual nature. The main reason for my interest in this recondite topic is that there are, broadly speaking, two kinds of scenarios spun about life after death. In one scenario, the individual with all his faculties intact (and…

  • Another great case from The Survival Top 40 is the James Leininger reincarnation case. This story is sufficiently well known that I don't think I need to summarize it; anyway, Miles Edward Allen's excellent summary is readily available at this link.* [*Update, 2023: The Survival Top 40 site is gone, but Allen recaps the Leininger…
