COMMENTARY: THE BATTLE FOR YOUR MIND! We are constantly being bombarded with all kinds of aggressive and subtle propaganda. Materialists encourage us to be unhappy and dissatisfied with what we are and what we have, and to spend money to overcome our "deficiencies". We are constantly getting the message that we are not enough unless we buy their products.
And if we don't have the money, we can buy now and pay later. Materialism is all about the here and now - there is no thought for the future at all. And "influencers" know the buttons of envy and insecurity to push.
Against this 24/7 avalanche of consumerism our inner voice reminds us that life on earth is short and, since we all have to cross over to the afterlife, we need to be long-term planners. We can use our intelligence to ensure that we develop the skills, habits, and qualities that will help us to make a happy adjustment when we cross over. Some of those habits include mindfulness, gratitude, generosity, forgiveness of self and others, cheerfulness, and the ability to appreciate beauty.
Our minds need the time and space to integrate spiritual information which will ultimately guarantee us a safe, easy, peaceful, and a most wonderful transition to a beautiful afterlife! Yes, it's time to slow down, and be a long term planner!
NON-LOCAL AWARENESS AND NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCES Cardiologist Dr. Pim van Lommel claims that the latest findings in brain research show that consciousness can not be located in the body, and does not cease to exist after death. Van Lommel's findings are based on international long-term scientific research and reports from thousands of patients who had near-death experiences.
ATHEISM: AN OBSOLETE WORLDVIEW
"The deniers and debunkers tend to be militant atheists who are motivated by allegiance to an obsolete worldview, by ignorance of the implications of the new physics, and by a hatred of religion and superstition. If they admitted to the reality of psychic abilities, such as telepathy, and of near-death experiences as involving genuine separation of mind from body, then the materialistic foundation of their worldview would collapse." (From Chris Carter's "Science and the Afterlife Experience")
STEPHANIE ARNOLD'S INCREDIBLE PREMONITION AND NDE Throughout her pregnancy, Stephanie Arnold was haunted by a premonition that she would die in childbirth. She told everyone. To placate her, the obstetrician made sure that extra units of blood were on hand. Soon after the delivery Stephanie unexpectedly flatlined and was only saved by the blood that her doctor had stored in readiness. Stephanie tells Megyn Kelly that, during the time she was dead, she could see what was happening in the operating room and elsewhere.
"THE SCIENCE OF CHANNELING"
Helané Wahbeh, director of research at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS), uses the word "channeling" as an umbrella term to encompass all types of intuition and psychic awareness. Her background as a child is fascinating and she had channelers in her family and was a natural psychic herself. She provides a wealth of physiological studies that provide evidence that channeling is a real phenomenon and insights into how it works and how you can use it yourself to improve your life. She also advises discernment as not all information gained through channeling can be trusted, let alone verified." Read more.

BEGINNERS' INTRODUCTION TO AFTERLIFE
WISDOM
In the video below, Professor John Finnemore offers a brief glimpse into
the afterlife and shares information on some of the sources of information
that are available about it. He also
introduces the Universal Spiritual Brother & Sisterhood (USB) and
the main purpose of its afterlife wisdom.
The spiritual teachings of the USB have been compiled in the book
'Spiritual Light' (published by USB Vision Press) and, given their
wide scope, they can be a good starting point for seekers of
truth.
THE WAY OF WAKING UP Alan Wilson Watts
(1915–1973) was a British philosopher, writer, and speaker, best known as an interpreter and populariser of Eastern philosophy for a Western audience. He studied Zen Buddhism and for a time was an Episcopal minister.

FEEDBACK:
(Three only).
1) "I'm really happy that spontaneous, uninduced prebirth/pre-existence experiences are slowly but surely getting more attention. They're the missing link that is often being overlooked". Titus Rivas
2)
"I love this newsletter. It's filled with interesting goodies about Heaven, Earth, and Everything in between. I read the parts that resonate with me, and leave the rest for others to enjoy. I was a legal secretary for a good portion of my life. Attorneys are all about the "evidence", which is what draws me to these postings!" Mary
3)
"I look forward to your posts so much, they are always uplifting. Bless you from the other side of the world. Wales GB. Eileen.
HIGHLY INSPIRATIONAL MUSICPURE MAGIC!! A VERY SPECIAL PRESENTATION BY TWO OF THE BIGGEST NAMES IN SHOW BUSINESS The legendary ELVIS PRESLEY and the great CELINE DION join together in If I Can Dream. Celine Dione was born in 1968. Elvis sang that very same song in the same venue in 1968 to a huge crowd. Camera clever editing shows Celine next to Elvis (who died in 1977) in the same 1968 performance. Very clever, very interesting, very emotionally moving. This brilliant song has deep meaning, as relevant for today as it was back then.
If I Can Dream
There must be lights burning brighter somewhere
Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue
If I can dream of a better land
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand
Tell me why, oh why, oh why can't my dream come true
oh why
There must be peace and understanding sometime
Strong winds of promise that will blow away the doubt and fear
If I can dream of a warmer sun
Where hope keeps shining on everyone
Tell me why, oh why, oh why won't that sun appear We're lost in a cloud
With too much rain
We're trapped in a world
That's troubled with pain
But as long as a man
Has the strength to dream
He can redeem his soul and fly
Deep in my heart there's a trembling question
Still I am sure that the answer gonna come somehow
Out there in the dark, there's a beckoning candle And while I can think, while I can talk
While I can stand, while I can walk
While I can dream, please let my dream
Come true, right now
Let it come true right now.
