COMMENTARY: NDE LIFE REVIEWS SHOW WHAT IS IMPORTANT There are several amazing things about the life reviews that many people have during a near-death experience.
If these experiences were just the random firing of neurons throwing up fragments of a life, the images would have to be things that are already contained within the brain. A bit like random photos popping up on your phone.
But the strange thing is that the memories that come up are often totally different from the memories that are stored in the brain. They provide insight into how THE OTHER person involved in an incident felt about the experience, and how the OTHER person carried it forward to people whom they later met.
Another odd thing is that the accomplishments we value most often do not figure in our life review. Instead, the deeds that are considered to be "greatest" on the Other Side are small acts of kindness toward others or expressions of pure gratefulness and love often done without anyone knowing. Read more about what has happened to other NDEers in their life reviews.
MODERN PHYSICS CHANGES THE PARADIGM
Materialists who believe that only matter is real are living with an outdated view of science. Max Planck, a pioneer of quantum physics concluded in 1944: “There is no matter as such. All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force that brings the particle of an atom to vibration and holds this most minute solar system of the atom together. We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind. This mind is the matrix of all matter.” Lecture, 'Das Wesen der Materie' [The Essence/Nature/Character of Matter], Florence, Italy (1944)
A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY OF AFTER-DEATH COMMUNICATIONS
Between 1984 and 2009 researchers published over 35 studies of after-death communication (ADC) involving thousands of people. In her 2011 Ph.D. dissertation, Jenny Streit-Horn analysed this data to find the most definitive estimates of various ADC phenomena, beginning with their prevalence. She aimed to provide healthcare providers with data and resources to help their clients. Below is a presentation that Dr. Jan Holden did on Jenny's data.
THE AMAZING ESTELLE ROBERTS (May 10, 1889 - May 30, 1970)
She was a down-to-earth and humble woman who was regarded by many of her peers (including Maurice Barbanell, medium for Silver Birch) as one of the greatest mediums of her time. She consulted royal families from numerous countries, major British movie personalities, and military and political leaders. She helped police to find missing persons and made national front page news with her successes. For many years she was a direct voice medium like Leslie Flint and also produced apports and materialisations. She held sold-out demonstrations of trance mediumship in the Royal Albert Hall for up to 6,000 people at a time. One of the high points of her career was when she gave a demonstration of mediumship in the British House of Commons. Just before her eightieth birthday, she was given a celebratory dinner by Psychic News and Two Worlds, Britain’s leading Spiritualist publications where more than six hundred guests attended. Read this overview of her mediumship.

DO NOT RELY ON WIKIPEDIA FOR INFORMATION ON ANYTHING PARANORMAL
The entry on Estelle Roberts in Wikipedia is typical of the treatment given by Wikipedia to ALL mediums and psychic researchers by closed-minded skeptical authors.
The medium Estelle Roberts is dismissed in a couple of short paragraphs with the following statements:
* She toured the UK giving mediumship demonstrations for money.
* Her autobiography was described in a review by journalist Tom Greenwell as non-scientific and was questioned how anyone apart from the author could take it seriously.
* Roberts claimed to materialize an Indian spirit guide called "Red Cloud". Researcher Melvin Harris who examined some photographs of Red Cloud suggested that the face was the same as Roberts and she had dressed up in a feathered war-bonnet.

STEPHEN SIMON ON HOW OUR LOVED ONES COMMUNICATE WITH US
Stephen Simon, movie producer, author and co-founder of The Spiritual Cinema Circle, speaks with Alex Ferrari about discovering direct afterlife communication. On January 3, 2018, Stephen’s wife and love of his life, Lauren, suddenly passed away in her sleep. She was 54. Six weeks later, Lauren began to communicate with Stephen and in October of 2018 they started writing his self-published e-book "What Dreams Have Come; Loving Through The Veil". He talks about Robin Williams and his friend Neale Donald Walsch. Stephen is asking for people who have had similar experiences to email him at stephen@whatdreamsmaycome.com
THE DOCTOR IN SPIRIT WHO WANTED TO GO ON HEALING Why would a group of leading surgeons in England send their most difficult cases to a trance medium? For sixty years George Chapman (1921-2006) would go into trance and allow Dr. William Lang (1852-1937) - who had been an eye specialist at London's Middlesex Hospital up until 1914 - to conduct "spirit operations" on the etheric bodies of his patients. How was he able to cure cataracts, glaucoma, arthritis, kidney disorders, brain tumors, heart trouble, cancer, and other ailments? And how did Dr. Lang convince his daughter and granddaughter of his identity? Read this incredible story.
I VISITED MY DECEASED DAUGHTER IN THE AFTERLIFE
Anika Schäller (Austria) lost her three-year-old child under tragic circumstances. After-death-contacts and out-of-body experiences convinced her that her daughter is doing well. At one time while meeting her daughter in the spirit world, she was introduced to another little girl and was told that she would soon be born to her, which happened.
AFTER-DEATH CONTACTS BEING COLLECTED
Joanna M. states, "I don't know what woke me up, but I half sat up and turned around to see if someone was coming into the living room. That's when I saw Joe standing in front of the entrance door. He was looking straight at me. The room was dark, but he was bright as if he were lit up. He was dressed in his Barbershop costume, a yellow jacket and dark pants, the same outfit in which he was buried." One of many accounts of an ADC on the ADCRF website.
MEDIUM MATT FRASER REVEALS A SON'S LAST WORDS A very evidential reading from medium Matt Fraser.
UNIDENTIFIED ANOMALOUS PHENOMENA [ previously called UFOs] AND THE AFTERLIFE Increasingly of late, sources inside the sprawling world of the UAP cover-up have sent surprising signals about the true essence of our visitors and their craft, signals that correspond strikingly with discoveries made about consciousness and its role in the physical world.

REMEMBERING ANNE PURYEAR
Thanks to Susanne Wilson for informing us
of the passing of Anne Puryear, D.D., author, minister, therapist, and Vice-President and Co-founder of The Logos Center in Scottsdale, Arizona which has a strong connection with the work of Edgar Cayce. She and her husband, Herb Puryear, Ph.D., incorporated Logos on May 26, 1983, in the State of Arizona. Anne's psychic work earned her international recognition as one of the most helpful, hopeful, motivating, and life-changing spiritual counselors in the country.
Many people know Anne from her book, STEPHEN LIVES! My Son Stephen, His Life, Suicide and Afterlife, about his death and communications with her from the other side, has received outstanding reviews from both professional and lay readers. It has excellent helpful resources on preventing suicide which you can read in book extracts on Amazon (scroll through to the Appendix).

LOOK UP AT THE STARS NOT AT THE MUD
"There will occasionally be setbacks. The tide ebbs and flows. But as sure as the sun sets and rises and the seasons follow one another in a seemingly automatic procession, so will the power of the spirit continue to infiltrate all over your world, bringing great joy, peace, knowledge, and serenity to many who do not now possess it. So, as you say, look up at the stars, not at the mud. Guidance comes from above, not from below."
Silver Birch Lift Up Your Hearts p.138
PRISON ANIMAL PROGRAM SAVES HUNDREDS OF LIVES

FEEDBACK: (4 only)
1)
"What a wonderful collection this week thank you. For some time I have been considering why all the evidence for survival is ignored by nearly everyone in a position to open the topic up to the general population. Particularly in the non Muslim world. I wonder if there is a deeply hidden fear that if the general population understood and considered all the evidence a state of non-fear of death or even a welcoming would prevail? With all the consequences that might bring. Thanks once again for a beautiful newsletter". B.
2) "Thank you for the amazing research you do Wendy and Victor. I have watched every video – last night and this morning". Most enlightening". Shanelle
3) "Thanks so much Victor and Wendy for all your Afterlife sharing! It is particularly sustaining when life is difficult". Louisa

SOMETHING INSPIRATIONAL: BECAUSE YOU LOVED ME
Our thoughts go out to all those who are missing or who feel separated from a loved one who supported them through the hard times and made them who they are today.
There are several amazing things about the life reviews that many people have during a near-death experience.
