For over twenty five years, I've been 14 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 2: on a journey to prove the existence of life after death. 15 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 2: On each episode, we'll discuss the reasons we now know 16 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 2: that our loved ones have survived physical death and so 17 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 2: will we. Welcome to Shades of the Afterlife. It's natural 18 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 2: for us human beings to want the truth, the truth 19 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 2: about life, the truth about death, the truth about the afterlife, 20 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 2: the good news and The bad news is there is 21 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 2: no one truth. There is your truth. And on every 22 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 2: episode I share different stories and I want you to 23 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 2: find that truth that helps you have a good life. Today, 24 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 2: I want to share some of the remarkable words of 25 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: Edgar Casey, as it has been requested by some listeners, 26 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 2: and then towards the end of our time together, I'll 27 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 2: share about the near death experience of Professor Dean Brinson 28 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 2: now Edgar Casey. Many have heard his name, but who 29 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 2: was he. He was a humble man from Kentucky, and 30 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 2: he would enter the trance state and provide astonishing, detailed 31 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 2: information about health, spirituality, the afterlife, and more. He seemed 32 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 2: to bridge Eastern spiritual concepts with Western religious traditions. Casey 33 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 2: was referred to as the Sleeping Prophet, an American clairvoyant 34 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 2: who only had an eighth grade education, but he gained 35 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 2: recognition for his ability to enter a self induced trance 36 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:30,239 Speaker 2: state and provide extremely interesting readings from a young age. 37 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 2: Case he demonstrated unusual psychic abilities, but it was his 38 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:39,079 Speaker 2: work providing medical diagnoses and remedies while he was in 39 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 2: that trance state that first brought him prominence. As his 40 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 2: readings expanded so did his exploration of spiritual concepts, particularly 41 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 2: the journey of the soul and the continuity of consciousness 42 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 2: beyond our physical death. His legacy continues to influence many 43 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 2: people interested in holistic health, spiritual growth, and the mysteries 44 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 2: of life after death. Edgar Casey lived from eighteen seventy 45 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 2: seven to nineteen forty five. He spent most of his 46 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 2: life in the state of Kentucky. Later he moved to 47 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 2: Virginia Beach, Virginia, and in nineteen twenty five he established 48 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 2: the Association for Research and Enlightenment, which still continues today. Now. 49 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: Although Edgar Casey didn't write any books himself, there are 50 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 2: hundreds of books attributed to him or based on his readings. 51 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 2: Amazon lists over one hundred and fifty unique titles. These 52 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 2: books cover a vast range of topics like health, remedies, spirituality, dreams, 53 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 2: the afterlife, and much more. I'd like to read now 54 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 2: some of his teachings, but they have been updated for 55 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 2: words we use today. The physical body ceases its earthly function, 56 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 2: a magnificent journey begins for the soul, one that few 57 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 2: fully comprehend during their time in the material world. The 58 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 2: first moments after physical death are not of darkness or void, 59 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: but of profound awakening. The soul, released from its temporary vessel, 60 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 2: experiences a sensation that many who have had a near 61 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 2: death experience describe as an extraordinary lightness, a freedom from 62 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 2: the constraints that once bound consciousness to matter. In those 63 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 2: initial moments, there's often confusion. As awareness expands beyond the 64 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 2: limitations of physical perception, the soul finds itself in what 65 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 2: we might call a transitional state, neither fully detached from 66 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 2: the earthly plane nor completely integrated into the spiritual realms. 67 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 2: This is where the first phase of the soul's journey begins. 68 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 2: Many spiritual traditions speak of a silver cord that connects 69 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 2: the soul to the physical body throughout life, and it's 70 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 2: the severing of this energetic connection that completes the transition. 71 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 2: Once this occurs, the soul begins to perceive reality through 72 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 2: different faculties, not through physical eyes or ears, but through 73 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 2: pure consciousness. Colors become more vibrant, sounds more harmonic, and 74 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 2: a profound sense of remembering occurs. The soul recognizes and 75 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 2: remembers its true nature. This recognition brings varied responses for souls, 76 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 2: deeply attached to material existence, there can be resistance, confusion, 77 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 2: or even denial. These souls may linger near their physical 78 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 2: remains or loved ones for a short while. Others, particularly 79 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 2: those who have cultivated spiritual understanding during life transition, with 80 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 2: greater ease, embracing the expanded awareness with gratitude and wonder. 81 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 2: During these early days after transition, the soul often witnesses 82 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 2: its own funeral proceedings, observes the grief of loved ones, 83 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 2: and attempts to communicate with them. This is when so 84 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 2: many of the reported after death communications occur. When the 85 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 2: newly transitioned soul, still learning to navigate its new existence, 86 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 2: reaches across the veil and attempts to reassure those left behind. 87 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 2: As noted by Edgar in his Remarkable Readings, the soul 88 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 2: during this phase reviews its most recent life experience, not 89 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 2: as judgment, but as a process of understanding. This life 90 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 2: review differs from what many imagine. It's not simply watching 91 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 2: events unfold as they happen chronologically, but experiencing them with 92 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 2: a profound empathy that transcends time and perspective. The soul 93 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 2: feels not only its own emotions, but those of everyone 94 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 2: impacted by its actions throughout life. Consider the story of Michael, 95 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 2: a businessman who transitioned unexpectedly at the age of fifty eight. 96 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 2: In communications received through mediumship, he described experiencing his life 97 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 2: from multiple perspectives, simultaneously feeling the hurt he caused through 98 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 2: his thoughtless words or actions which happened decades earlier, also 99 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 2: the joy he brought through acts of kindness that he'd forgotten, 100 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 2: and the ripple effects of both his largest decisions and 101 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 2: seemingly insignificant choices. This review process is not punishment, but education, 102 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 2: the soul's opportunity to fully comprehend the meaning and impact 103 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 2: of its earthly journey. It represents the beginning of integration, 104 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 2: where lessons from physical experience are absorbed at the soul level. 105 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 2: As the days extend into weeks, the soul gradually adapts 106 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 2: to existence without a physical body. Those who maintain spiritual 107 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 2: practices during life often report this adaptation occurs more smoothly, 108 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 2: as if they had been preparing for this transition all along. 109 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 2: Those who lived primarily focused on material concerns typically require 110 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 2: more adjustment, sometimes experiencing what we might metaphorically describe as 111 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 2: a kind of spiritual therapy to help them release attachments 112 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 2: and expand awareness. During this period, souls begin to recognize 113 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 2: that thoughts create reality. In the spiritual dimensions. What once 114 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 2: was dismissed as imagination is now understood as creative force. 115 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 2: The soul learns that consciousness shapes experience far more directly 116 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 2: than it did in the physical realm. This realization brings 117 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 2: both freedom and responsibility, as the soul recognizes its power 118 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 2: to create its experience through focused intention. By the end 119 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 2: of the first month after transition, most souls have completed 120 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 2: their initial adjustment and have begun to explore the vastness 121 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 2: of their new existence. They encounter other souls, both those 122 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 2: they knew in physical life and spiritual guides who assist 123 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 2: in this acclamation process. Communication occurs not through words, but 124 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:36,079 Speaker 2: through direct transfer of thought and feeling, a form of 125 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 2: communion more intimate and complete than any earthly dialogue. As 126 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 2: the soul enters the second phase of its journey, typically 127 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 2: between the second and fourth months after this physical transition, 128 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 2: it experiences what many spiritual traditions call the realm of recognition. 129 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 2: This is a profound period where the greater spiritual res 130 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 2: reality becomes increasingly apparent, and the soul begins to understand 131 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 2: its place within the cosmic tapestry. During this phase, the 132 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:14,959 Speaker 2: soul encounters what we might describe as soul groups, collections 133 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 2: of kindred spirits with whom it has traveled across many lifetimes. 134 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 2: These reunions bring indescribable joy and a sense of homecoming 135 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 2: that transcends our earthly understanding of relationships. Imagine meeting beings 136 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 2: who you know love you completely, unconditionally, and you share 137 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 2: a spiritual history spanning eons with This is the nature 138 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 2: of these reunions. One particularly moving account comes from Elena, 139 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 2: whose husband communicated several months after his transition. He described 140 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 2: encountering not only his parents and grandparents, but souls he 141 00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 2: instantly recognized despite having no conscious mens memory of them 142 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 2: during his recent incarnation. It's like remembering something you never 143 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 2: knew you forgot, he explained. This phase brings a deepening 144 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 2: of the life review that began in the first months. Now, 145 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 2: with greater spiritual clarity and distance from physical existence, the 146 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 2: soul examines its recent life within the context of its 147 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 2: entire soul journey. Patterns become evident. Lessons attempted across multiple lifetimes, 148 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 2: spiritual contracts with other souls, and the higher purpose behind 149 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 2: circumstances that seemed random or even cruel during physical existence. 150 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 2: As noted in the remarkable psychic readings of Edgar Casey, 151 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 2: the soul doesn't experience time as we do. What we 152 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 2: might constitute as a month in our earthly measurement could 153 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 2: feel entirely different in spiritual realms. The soul exists in 154 00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 2: what might be described as an eternal leernal now, where past, present, 155 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 2: and future are accessible simultaneously. Yet there does seem to 156 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,319 Speaker 2: be a progression of experience that, for our understanding, can 157 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 2: be mapped somewhat to earthly time. During this period, souls 158 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 2: often report a sort of spiritual education tailored to their 159 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 2: unique developmental needs. Some describe vast libraries containing the wisdom 160 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 2: of the ages. Others speak of learning centers where advanced 161 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 2: souls share knowledge through direct transmission of consciousness. This education 162 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 2: is an intellectual in nature, but transformative, changing the very 163 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:45,839 Speaker 2: essence of the soul's understanding rather than simply adding information. 164 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 2: It's time for the break. But did you know that 165 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 2: While Edgar Casey didn't write any books, over fourteen thousand 166 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 2: of His documented readings are meticulously preserved and cataloged at 167 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 2: his ar Lie Library. We'll be right back. You're listening 168 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 2: to Shades of the Afterlife on the iHeartRadio and Coast 169 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 2: to Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network. Welcome back to Shades 170 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 2: of the Afterlife. I'm Sandra Champlain, and I've got a 171 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 2: couple of bits of trivia about Edgar Casey. First, despite 172 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 2: offering intricate medical readings that often included pharmaceutical compounds, dietary advice, 173 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 2: and therapies, Casey himself only had an eighth grade education. 174 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 2: He claimed to remember nothing of the readings upon waking. Also, 175 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 2: Edgar Casey's work laid the foundation for or much of 176 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 2: today's holistic health movement. He's often called the father of 177 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 2: holistic medicine because he continually emphasized the interconnectedness of body, mind, 178 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 2: and spirit for true healing long before it became mainstream. 179 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 2: Let's continue with what he says about education in the afterlife. 180 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 2: Some describe vast libraries containing the wisdom of the ages. 181 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 2: Others speak of learning centers where advanced souls share knowledge 182 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: through direct transmission of consciousness. This education is an intellectual 183 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 2: in nature, but transformative, changing the very essence of the 184 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 2: soul's understanding, rather than simply adding information. For souls who 185 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 2: departed with unresolved trauma or attachment, this period often involves 186 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 2: healing work of profound depth. Spiritual guides, some of whom 187 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 2: may have been known to during physical life, and others 188 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 2: who operate primarily in spiritual dimensions, assist in this healing process. 189 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 2: Through what might be described as a vibrational therapy, these 190 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 2: wounded aspects of consciousness are gradually restored to wholeness. This 191 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 2: is also when many souls begin to comprehend the purpose 192 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 2: behind suffering that they experienced or witnessed during physical existence. 193 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 2: From this elevated perspective, they see how challenges served as 194 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 2: catalysts for growth, how relationships provided opportunity for balancing karmic energies, 195 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 2: and how even the most difficult circumstances offered precious gifts 196 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 2: of spiritual evolution. Consider the testimony shared through deep meditation 197 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 2: channels about Thomas, a young man who transitioned after years 198 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 2: of battling addiction. From his new perspective, he could see 199 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 2: see how his struggles had created opportunities for compassion in 200 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 2: those around him. How his journey had prompted others to 201 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 2: examine their own relationships with attachment and escape, and how 202 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 2: even his most destructive choices contain seeds of profound spiritual teaching, 203 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 2: both for himself and others. During this phase, the soul 204 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 2: begins to understand that the purpose of incarnation isn't happiness 205 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 2: as we conceive it in human terms, but growth, service, 206 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 2: and the expansion of consciousness. Many souls report a kind 207 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 2: of cosmic perspective shift, where earthly concerns that once seemed 208 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 2: all important are recognized as temporary conditions in an eternal journey. 209 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 2: As this period progresses, many souls develop the ability to 210 00:16:54,800 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 2: more consciously connect with loved ones still in physical formanes 211 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 2: why many grieving individuals report sensing the presence of their 212 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 2: departed loved ones, and, most strongly, several months after the transition, 213 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 2: the soul has gained sufficient mastery of its new state 214 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 2: of being to intentionally direct love and healing energy across 215 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 2: dimensional boundaries. The relationship with time and space transforms dramatically. 216 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,360 Speaker 2: During this phase, the soul discovers it can move through 217 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 2: different spiritual dimensions through intention rather than physical movement. Some 218 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 2: describe this as thinking yourself to a destination or state 219 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 2: of being. This freedom from physical limitations allows for exploration 220 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 2: of realms that defy earthly description, landscapes of living light, 221 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:56,160 Speaker 2: geometric patterns encoding cosmic wisdom, or states of pure vibrational harmony. 222 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 2: By the end of this phase, approximately four months after 223 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 2: physical transition, the soul has generally adjusted to its new 224 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 2: state and gained significant understanding of its recent life experience 225 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:14,120 Speaker 2: with the greater context of its eternal journey. It stands 226 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 2: at the threshold of deeper spiritual integration, prepared to embrace 227 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 2: the next stage of its after death experience with growing 228 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:27,719 Speaker 2: wisdom and expanding awareness. As the soul moves into the 229 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 2: fifth through eighth months of its journey beyond physical existence, 230 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 2: it enters what mystic traditions often call the period of integration. 231 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:42,880 Speaker 2: During this crucial phase, the soul begins to synthesize all 232 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 2: that it has learned and experienced, both from its most 233 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 2: recent incarnation and from the profound insights gained during the 234 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 2: early months of transition. This integration occurs at a level 235 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:03,400 Speaker 2: far deeper than intellectual on goderstanding. It's a vibrational assimilation 236 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 2: where wisdom becomes part of the soul's very essence. Imagine 237 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 2: the difference between reading about compassion and becoming compassion itself. 238 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 2: This transformation represents the nature of soul integration during this period. 239 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:26,120 Speaker 2: Many teachers have spoken of this phase as one where 240 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 2: the soul begins to perceive its soul blueprint, the higher 241 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:36,959 Speaker 2: design and purpose of its journey across many lifetimes. The 242 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 2: soul now recognizes itself as a part of a greater 243 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 2: cosmic pattern, interwoven with all other souls and an intricate 244 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 2: dance of spiritual evolution. The concept of time continues to 245 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 2: shift dramatically. One might constitute months in our earthly measurement 246 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:06,160 Speaker 2: exists as a quality of experience rather than linear progression 247 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 2: in the spirit world. Each soul progresses through these states 248 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 2: at its own pace, depending on its spiritual development and 249 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 2: the nature of its attachment to physical existence. One profound 250 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 2: aspect of this period involves karmic resolution. With expanded awareness, 251 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 2: the soul perceives the complete tapestry of cause and effect 252 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 2: across multiple lifetimes. It understands how actions in one incarnation 253 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:43,919 Speaker 2: created conditions in another, how relationships served as vehicles for 254 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 2: balancing energetic exchanges, and how challenges provided opportunities for soul growth. 255 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 2: Consider Sarah's experience, accessed through Edgar Casey's deep trance channeling 256 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 2: approximately six months after her transition. She described suddenly understanding 257 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 2: why she had chosen parents who could not meet her 258 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 2: emotional needs. This arrangement had created precisely the conditions needed 259 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 2: to develop her own inner strength and cultivate the compassion 260 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 2: that became her greatest gift to others. What had seemed 261 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 2: like a painful childhood deficiency was revealed as a purposeful 262 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:34,159 Speaker 2: spiritual catalyst. During this phase, many souls also begin conscious 263 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 2: participation in cosmic service. They discover that even without physical form, 264 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:47,719 Speaker 2: they can contribute to spiritual evolution. Some focus on sending 265 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 2: healing energies to those still in physical form, particularly loved 266 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:57,679 Speaker 2: ones struggling with grief. Others assist newly transitioning souls, helping 267 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 2: them navigate the initial confusion with compassion. Edgar's reading suggest 268 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:08,439 Speaker 2: that during this period, the soul also begins preparation for 269 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 2: its next phase of existence. For some, this means laying 270 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 2: groundwork for another physical incarnation. For others, it involves advancement 271 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 2: to higher spiritual dimensions. The soul with greater clarity about 272 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 2: its purpose formulates intentions that will shape its future expression. 273 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 2: This is also when many souls discover their soul specialties, 274 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 2: particular qualities or gifts developed across many lifetimes, like healing, teaching, 275 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:44,360 Speaker 2: or creative expression. These specialties become more and more evident 276 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:49,360 Speaker 2: and accessible informing how the soul will express itself moving forward. 277 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 2: A fascinating aspect involves timeline exploration. Free from physical constraints, 278 00:22:56,480 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 2: the soul can perceive potential futures and alternative versions of 279 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 2: its past lives. This understanding brings a profound appreciation for 280 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 2: free will and its role in cosmic creation. Souls in 281 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 2: this phase often report a cosmic perspective, the ability to 282 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 2: simultaneously hold awareness of both individual experience and universal consciousness. 283 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 2: One soul described it as seeing through my eyes and 284 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 2: God's eyes at the same time. This dual perception brings 285 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 2: extraordinary compassion and understanding. For souls who departed with unresolved 286 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 2: emotional patterns, this period often involves purification. This isn't punishment, 287 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 2: but loving restoration of the soul's natural harmony, occurring within 288 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 2: a field of unconditional love and support from more advanced 289 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 2: spiritual beings. By the eighth month after physical transition, most 290 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 2: souls have achieved significant integration of their recent Earth experience 291 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:12,199 Speaker 2: and gained clarity about their sole purpose. They exist in 292 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 2: a state of expanded awareness, perceiving multiple dimensions and understanding 293 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 2: their connectedness to all of creation. They have moved beyond 294 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 2: initial adjustment into conscious participation with the greater spiritual reality. 295 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 2: As this phase concludes, the soul stands at the threshold 296 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 2: of significant choice regarding its next expression. We're going to 297 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 2: stop there for the reading will continue with what happens 298 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 2: next in our journey in the afterlife after the break, 299 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 2: But a little bit more trivia. You've heard the term 300 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 2: a Kashik records. While the concept of a Kashik records 301 00:24:55,680 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 2: exists in older Eastern spiritual traditions, EDW. Your Case's readings 302 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 2: were instrumental in popularizing this idea in the West, and 303 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 2: his access to them during readings brought this concept into 304 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 2: the modern term we know today. He described the Akashak 305 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 2: records as a vast, non physical archive of all thoughts, deeds, 306 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:26,120 Speaker 2: and experiences. So when you think of the term Akashak records, 307 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 2: you can thank Edgar Casey. It's time for our break, 308 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 2: We'll be back with more of the Sleeping profit You're 309 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 2: listening to Shades of the Afterlife on the iHeartRadio and 310 00:25:37,640 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 2: Coast to Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network. Welcome back to 311 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:04,919 Speaker 2: Shades of the Afterlife. I'm Sandra Champlain and this episode 312 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,640 Speaker 2: is dedicated to a few listeners who requested I talk 313 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 2: about the Great Edgar Casey. Edgar Casey was known as 314 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 2: the Sleeping Prophet as he would go into trance and 315 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:24,399 Speaker 2: bring through medical treatments, philosophy, psychic information, and words about 316 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:28,359 Speaker 2: the afterlife. In fact, it was in nineteen ten that 317 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 2: Edgar Casey first gained national attention. He was just thirty 318 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:37,360 Speaker 2: three years old and a New York Times article headlined 319 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 2: illiterate man becomes a doctor when hypnotized. That brought him 320 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 2: his initial fame. He had done over fourteen thousand readings 321 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 2: in this trance state, and there are over one hundred 322 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 2: and fifty books published about these readings. In nineteen forty three, 323 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 2: a magazine called him the miracle Man of Virginia Beach. 324 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 2: He passed away at the age of sixty seven, and 325 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 2: his most significant popularity was when he was in his 326 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 2: mid sixties. Interesting, I'm fifty nine, so maybe my best 327 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 2: years are yet to come. Let's continue with his words 328 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 2: of what happens after death. We're going to move now 329 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:25,439 Speaker 2: into the ninth month. In the final months of the 330 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:30,120 Speaker 2: soul's first year after physical transition, typically the ninth through 331 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 2: twelve months, a profound process unfolds called the period of decision. 332 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 2: The soul reaches a critical juncture where it must determine 333 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 2: the next expression of its journey. This decision emerges from 334 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 2: deep communion with councils of Light or karmic boards, which 335 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 2: are assemblies of highly evolved spiritual beings who assist in 336 00:27:54,920 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 2: reviewing the soul's progress and illuminating potential paths forward. These 337 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 2: councils provide wisdom and perspective, helping the soul align in 338 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 2: its next steps with its highest purpose. Free will remains paramount. 339 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 2: The soul, with its expanded awareness, exercises choice based on 340 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 2: what will best serve its continuing evolution and contribution to 341 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 2: cosmic unfoldment. For some, this means preparation for another physical incarnation, 342 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 2: for others, advancement to different dimensions of spiritual service. During 343 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 2: this final phase, the soul experiences cosmic vision, a profound 344 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 2: revelation of the interconnectedness of all of creation and its 345 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 2: own place within this infinite tapestry. This vision transcends human understanding, 346 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 2: revealing patterns and purposes that remain largely hidden during physical existence. 347 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 2: The sole how seemingly random events and relationships form part 348 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 2: of an exquisite design serving the evolution of consciousness itself. 349 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 2: Consider David's experience shared through spiritual regression, who described this 350 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 2: period as standing at the center point of a vast 351 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 2: web of relationships, seeing how each connection vibrated with purpose 352 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 2: across many lifetimes. He could perceive how his most painful 353 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 2: experiences had often catalyzed his greatest growth, and how his 354 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 2: smallest acts of kindness created ripples affecting countless others. Edgar's 355 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 2: readings suggest that during this phase, the soul also attains 356 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 2: clarity about its sole contract, the specific lessons, relationships, and 357 00:29:54,520 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 2: contributions it has committed to as part of its evolutionary journey. 358 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 2: This clarity brings profound acceptance of both the challenges and 359 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 2: gifts contained within this contract. For souls preparing to reincarnate, 360 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 2: this period involves careful consideration of the circumstances that will 361 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 2: best facilitate their continuing evolution. They select the time period, 362 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 2: geographical location, family dynamics, and key relationships. This selection process 363 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 2: represents profound spiritual strategy, often involving a collaborative creation with 364 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 2: future parents and spiritual guides. Souls make agreements with others 365 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 2: they've known across many lifetimes to reunite in specific relationships 366 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 2: for mutual growth. For souls not immediately returning to physical incarnation, 367 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 2: this phase involves preparation for advancement to higher vibrational dimensions, 368 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 2: where different forms of service and expression become possible, like 369 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 2: cosmic healing or creative expression. During this period, the soul 370 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 2: also completes the release of attachment. The soul recognizes itself 371 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 2: as an eternal consciousness that has experienced countless forms. Many 372 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 2: spiritual communications describe this phase as one of extraordinary peace 373 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 2: and clarity, where the soul experiences divine alignment. Sarah, accessed 374 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 2: through Edgar Casey approximately eleven months after her transition, described 375 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 2: this state as absolute belonging, a complete acceptance of both 376 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 2: her as an individual and her inseparability from the whole 377 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 2: of creation. She communicated, you realize you're both a wave 378 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 2: and the ocean. Simultaneously. As the first year concludes, the 379 00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 2: soul has completed a profound transformation, culminating and expanded awareness, 380 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 2: deeper understanding, and conscious participation in the cosmic process. The 381 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 2: soul that emerges bears little resemblance to the limited identity 382 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 2: it held during physical existence, yet carries forward essential qualities 383 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 2: and wisdom for those still in physical form. Understanding this 384 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 2: journey transforms our relationship with death itself. Rather than an ending, 385 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 2: physical transition, marks a new beginning, a doorway into expanded 386 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 2: consciousness and continuing evolution. The soul never dies, It transforms, integrates, 387 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 2: and continues its eternal journey. This understanding doesn't eliminate grief, 388 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 2: but it can infuse that grief with hope and perspective. 389 00:32:55,120 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 2: The connections formed between souls transcend physical existence. Love, the 390 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 2: most powerful force in creation, continues to bind souls together 391 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 2: across dimensions, beyond time, and through all transformations of consciousness. 392 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 2: In contemplating this magnificent journey of the soul, we glimpse 393 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 2: our own eternal nature and the profound purpose underlying our 394 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 2: temporary physical existence. We are, as Edgar Casey so often emphasized, 395 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 2: spiritual beings having a human experience, not for punishment or 396 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 2: by random chance, but as part of an extraordinary journey 397 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 2: of consciousness unfolding across eternity. How popular are Edgar Casey's 398 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 2: teachings today? Pretty popular. The global reach of the AAR 399 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 2: his Association for Research and Enlightenment, has centers in twenty 400 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 2: five countries and representation in another thirty seven countries. I 401 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 2: was curious to find what Casey teaches about animals in 402 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:14,800 Speaker 2: the afterlife. What I could find is Edgar casey readings 403 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 2: suggest that animals have a spirit or a life essence, 404 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 2: but not a soul in the same complex, individualistic, and 405 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 2: evolving sense that humans possess. The human soul, according to Casey, 406 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,840 Speaker 2: is imbued with free will and the capacity for growth 407 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 2: back to oneness with the creator. Animals, while having a 408 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 2: life force, do not have the same kind of individual 409 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 2: soul journey or karmic progression as humans. Animals, particularly pets, 410 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 2: are often seen as serving a purpose in the human journey. 411 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 2: They contribute to our emotional and spiritual development, teaching us 412 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 2: about unconditional love, responsible ability, and compassion. There are suggestions 413 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 2: in his readings and interpretations that pets can be present 414 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:14,840 Speaker 2: in afterlife experiences of their human companions. This aligns with 415 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 2: the idea that heaven or Heaven's we experience are co 416 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 2: created on a soul level and include meaningful relationships with animals. 417 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 2: If a pet was deeply loved and significant to a 418 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 2: person's life, that connection will persist and be experienced in 419 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:40,280 Speaker 2: the afterlife. One interpretation of Casey's work mentions that souls 420 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:45,799 Speaker 2: travel together through many lifetimes, even with our pets. While 421 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:51,400 Speaker 2: Casey emphasized human reincarnation, he generally did not teach that 422 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 2: human souls transmigrate into animal forms. Consistent with the law 423 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 2: of conservation of energy, Casey's broader philosophy suggests that no 424 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:09,040 Speaker 2: energy or life force is ever truly destroyed, only transformed. 425 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 2: While not specifying an individual afterlife journey for every animal, 426 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 2: Casey suggests the essence of life continues for all. In 427 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 2: our next segment together, I'll share about Professor Dean Brinson's 428 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 2: near death experience, but just some final words about Edgar Casey, 429 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 2: the Sleeping Profit, and his profound perspective on the afterlife, 430 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 2: reminding us all that death is not an end, but 431 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:43,000 Speaker 2: a transition, a new beginning for the soul. He taught 432 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 2: that our earthly lives are simply a classroom, a temporary 433 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:51,840 Speaker 2: experience designed for our spiritual growth. From his vast readings, 434 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 2: we learn that when the physical body passes the soul, 435 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:59,800 Speaker 2: our true essence is released into realms of expanded awareness. 436 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 2: It is a journey of remembering our true nature, a 437 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 2: place where consciousness continues its evolution, guided by divine love. 438 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 2: He emphasized that the connections we forge hear, especially through love, 439 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:18,240 Speaker 2: transcend physical boundaries. Our loved ones are not truly lost. 440 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 2: They continue their own journey, maintaining bonds of affection with 441 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 2: us and our present in ways our physical senses may 442 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 2: not always perceive. His message was one of immense hope. 443 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 2: We are spiritual beings having a human experience here to learn, 444 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 2: to grow, and to express love. The afterlife is simply 445 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 2: the next step in our eternal journey back to the 446 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 2: heart of the Creator, a journey where every experience, every challenge, 447 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:53,800 Speaker 2: and every act of love holds profound purpose. Life truly 448 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:58,319 Speaker 2: is continuous and love is the thread that binds us 449 00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:02,879 Speaker 2: across all dementias. We'll be right back with an extraordinary 450 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 2: near death experience. You're listening to Shades of the Afterlife 451 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:26,440 Speaker 2: on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast am Paranormal Podcast Network. 452 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:34,800 Speaker 2: Welcome back to Shades of the Afterlife. I'm Sandra Champlain. Next, 453 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 2: I'd like to share with you the near death experience 454 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:42,760 Speaker 2: of Professor Dean Brinson. I'll share the basics with you now, 455 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 2: but you can find his full story on YouTube. It's 456 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 2: about two hours long. Here's how Professor Dean got exposed 457 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 2: to the truth about heaven, and he said it changed 458 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 2: everything he thought he knew. It began like any other day, 459 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 2: Dean a routine hospital checkup, nothing serious, no emergencies, just 460 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 2: a standard appointment. He sat in a wheelchair in the 461 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:12,240 Speaker 2: waiting area, lost in thought, surrounded by the quiet hum 462 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 2: of hospital life. And then, without warning, everything changed. One moment, 463 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 2: he was sitting in the wheelchair, grounded to his body 464 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:25,120 Speaker 2: in the hospital. Next he was rising above it, watching 465 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 2: the scene unfold below with eerie clarity. He saw his 466 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,759 Speaker 2: wife speaking softly beside him. He saw nurses moving with 467 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:37,080 Speaker 2: practiced urgency. He saw doctors and white coats focused on 468 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 2: charts and machines. At first, it all felt distant, like 469 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,760 Speaker 2: a vivid, surreal dream, but deep within he sensed the truth. 470 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:49,040 Speaker 2: This wasn't a dream. It was real, more real than 471 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,920 Speaker 2: anything he had ever known. When his wife realized he 472 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 2: wasn't responding when she was talking to him, she started 473 00:39:56,600 --> 00:40:01,560 Speaker 2: shouting for help. Nurses and doctors rushed over. They tried everything, 474 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 2: but nothing could bring him back because he wasn't there anymore. 475 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 2: But by then Dean was already somewhere else, somewhere beyond imagination. 476 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:15,240 Speaker 2: And then, right when he needed him, his teacher appeared. 477 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 2: Years ago, he had promised he would be there when 478 00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:24,919 Speaker 2: Dean died, and there he was, smiling, calm, filled with light. 479 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,840 Speaker 2: He reached out, and Dean knew everything was going to 480 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 2: be okay. They moved together, side by side. They didn't walk, 481 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 2: they floated. They rose through the hospital ceiling like it 482 00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:41,880 Speaker 2: wasn't even there. Gravity didn't matter anymore. The world of doctors, 483 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 2: machines and hospitals faded away behind Dean. Something new was 484 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 2: calling him. As they traveled. Dean asked to see the sun. 485 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,919 Speaker 2: He didn't know why. Maybe he thought seeing it from 486 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:58,840 Speaker 2: this side would be different. His teacher laughed and said, 487 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 2: you see the sun every day, it's nothing special here. 488 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,800 Speaker 2: He let him look at it, and what Dean saw 489 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 2: was not what he expected. The sun wasn't gold and 490 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 2: warm like it looks from Earth. It was a massive 491 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:17,920 Speaker 2: ball of exploding energy, roaring louder than any thunderstorm. They 492 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:22,360 Speaker 2: continued on and traveled faster than light, faster than anything 493 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 2: Dean could describe. Stars and galaxies flew past them like 494 00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 2: little specks. It felt like traveling across forever in just 495 00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 2: a moment. After what felt like an instant and eternity 496 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:41,360 Speaker 2: at the same time, they reached something unexpected, a tunnel, 497 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 2: but not like the tunnel from other stories. It wasn't dark, 498 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:51,080 Speaker 2: it wasn't scary. In fact, it radiated warmth, like an invitation. 499 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 2: As they moved closer, soft light poured from within, and 500 00:41:56,120 --> 00:42:02,000 Speaker 2: figures began to emerge. Familiar faces smile, familiar eyes that 501 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 2: shimmered with kindness. At first, he couldn't quite place them. 502 00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 2: There was a flicker of recognition, just out of reach, 503 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:14,160 Speaker 2: like waking up from a dream. He remembered, but those 504 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:18,919 Speaker 2: weren't strangers. These souls he had known before, long ago, 505 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 2: in other lives, across other times, lives he had completely 506 00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:28,360 Speaker 2: forgotten while living on Earth. The memories came rushing back, 507 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 2: like a river breaking through a damn. Suddenly, Dean wasn't 508 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,520 Speaker 2: just the person he thought he was. He was much 509 00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 2: much more. But just as he thought he understood everything, 510 00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:46,319 Speaker 2: another truth surfaced. Each face, each soul that crossed his 511 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:51,320 Speaker 2: path carried a special connection to him, a bond that 512 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:57,040 Speaker 2: had survived time itself. Some had been friends, others teachers, 513 00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,960 Speaker 2: and a few had even been family members from lives 514 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 2: long past. The love and recognition between them were instant, loving, 515 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 2: and overwhelming. At that moment, Dean understood that true relationships 516 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 2: never die, They just sleep deep inside the soul until 517 00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:22,719 Speaker 2: souls meet again. In that moment, this understanding didn't just 518 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:26,440 Speaker 2: comfort him, it filled his heart in a way he 519 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 2: had never known before. He wasn't alone, and he had 520 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:35,720 Speaker 2: never truly been alone. Every soul he had loved walked 521 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:41,040 Speaker 2: with him lifetime after lifetime. This is something most humans 522 00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 2: forget on earth, but it's something the soul never forgets. 523 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 2: Dean had lived hundreds, even thousands of years before, and 524 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:54,279 Speaker 2: now he remembered it all. Leaving the tunnel, they entered 525 00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 2: a world that words can barely describe. Imagine the most 526 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:04,000 Speaker 2: beautiful place you've ever seen, a beach, a mountain, a forest, 527 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:09,280 Speaker 2: then make it a thousand times more colorful, Make everything 528 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 2: glow with light, make every tree, river and mountain alive 529 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 2: singing a song you can feel inside your heart. That's 530 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 2: what it was like. This was the astral world, a 531 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 2: place more real than Earth, more full of life, more 532 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:30,759 Speaker 2: full of love. You didn't talk with your mouth, you 533 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:33,879 Speaker 2: talked with your mind. You didn't need to move your 534 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 2: eyes to see. You could see everything around you all 535 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:43,319 Speaker 2: at once, and everyone was there. Everyone was beautiful, not 536 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:47,479 Speaker 2: just on the outside but inside too. There was no hate, 537 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:52,760 Speaker 2: no anger, only peace. Another amazing thing about this world 538 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 2: was how you learned things. On Earth, you had to 539 00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 2: work hard to learn, reading, studying, and practicing. In the 540 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 2: ass world, you simply just knew. Look at a flower 541 00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:07,360 Speaker 2: and suddenly you understand everything about it. Look at a 542 00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 2: star and you know how it was born. Knowledge wasn't hidden, 543 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:16,319 Speaker 2: it was everywhere ready to be absorbed. It felt like 544 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:19,840 Speaker 2: all the mysteries of the universe were open to anyone 545 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:24,240 Speaker 2: willing to look. Even the smallest blade of grass held 546 00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:28,360 Speaker 2: the wisdom of the ages. You didn't have to ask questions, 547 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 2: you just had to listen with your soul. Everything spoke 548 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:37,200 Speaker 2: to you, not in words, but in feelings and energy. 549 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:41,560 Speaker 2: The answers were already there, waiting patiently for you to 550 00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 2: notice them. In that world, curiosity wasn't a struggle. It 551 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 2: was as natural as breathing and learning. It felt like 552 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 2: coming home to a truth you already knew deep inside. 553 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:58,560 Speaker 2: And then Dean realized something even crazier. Many of the 554 00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:04,800 Speaker 2: great inventions on Earth, airplanes, rockets, computers, were not really 555 00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 2: invented here. The ideas came from this higher world. Some 556 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 2: souls remembered tiny pieces of what they had seen before birth, 557 00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:19,880 Speaker 2: and with great effort, they brought those ideas into our world. 558 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 2: Music filled this entire world, not just from instruments or voices, 559 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 2: but from everything. The trees sang, the flowers hummed, even 560 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 2: the mountains made deep, peaceful sounds. It wasn't like any 561 00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 2: music on earth. It was the music of life itself, 562 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:44,400 Speaker 2: the music of existence. Dean could feel it in every 563 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,960 Speaker 2: part of him. It was like being wrapped in the warmest, 564 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 2: kindest hug you could ever imagine. And then he understood 565 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:56,359 Speaker 2: this music wasn't just for beauty. It was the very 566 00:46:56,440 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 2: heartbeat of creation. As they traveled further, his teacher explained 567 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:06,040 Speaker 2: something important. Our souls are trapped. We are stuck inside 568 00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:09,400 Speaker 2: three bodies, the physical body you see in the mirror, 569 00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 2: the astral body you enter when you dream or die, 570 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:17,840 Speaker 2: and the causal body, which holds your mind and thoughts. 571 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:21,879 Speaker 2: Each body is like a prison, keeping us from remembering 572 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:25,200 Speaker 2: who we truly are. The real journey is to break 573 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:28,920 Speaker 2: free from these prisons. When you break free, you return 574 00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:31,879 Speaker 2: to your true home, which is a place of pure light, 575 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:36,759 Speaker 2: pure love, pure joy. Dean wanted to go further, he 576 00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:39,759 Speaker 2: wanted to see it all, but his teacher said no, 577 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 2: not yet. He told him he had to go back. 578 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:46,720 Speaker 2: He had a job to do, he had to share 579 00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:50,399 Speaker 2: what he had seen. And just like that, Dean woke 580 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 2: up back in the hospital. Doctors were working over him, 581 00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:58,160 Speaker 2: thinking their machines had saved him. But Professor Dean knew 582 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:02,080 Speaker 2: the truth. He had seen heaven, and it was more beautiful, 583 00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 2: more real, and more filled with love than anything he 584 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:10,560 Speaker 2: could have ever imagined. Heaven isn't a fantasy, it isn't 585 00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:14,720 Speaker 2: just a nice story. It's real. It's alive, and every 586 00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,480 Speaker 2: single one of us is meant to find it. We 587 00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:21,319 Speaker 2: are not just bodies walking around. We are souls on 588 00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:26,160 Speaker 2: a long, beautiful journey back home, and once you see 589 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 2: the truth, you can never forget it. Powerful words. I 590 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 2: hope you've enjoyed our episode today. Certainly common threads between 591 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 2: Edgar Casey's words and Professor Dean's words. Remember doctor Raymond 592 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:45,160 Speaker 2: Moody who coined the term near death experience, Well, that 593 00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:49,560 Speaker 2: was back in nineteen seventy five, and now we're celebrating 594 00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 2: fifty years of having that term n DEE. He originally 595 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:59,919 Speaker 2: documented over a thousand cases of people clinically dead before resuscitation, 596 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:04,799 Speaker 2: and many described floating above their bodies, just like Professor Dean, 597 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:11,319 Speaker 2: moving through tunnels of light and encountering beings, especially deceased relatives. 598 00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:14,920 Speaker 2: Of course, we know just before we pass away, decease 599 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 2: relatives and loved ones come to be by our bedside, 600 00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 2: carrying us back home. There is something so curious about 601 00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:26,239 Speaker 2: those three bodies that the teacher of Professor Dean's showed him. 602 00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:29,439 Speaker 2: And what do we need to do to escape those 603 00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:33,080 Speaker 2: bodies and connect with this greater reality. I have a 604 00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:37,520 Speaker 2: sneaky suspicion that it is learning to quiet the busy mind, 605 00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:41,120 Speaker 2: to have love in our hearts, to trust, and we 606 00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:45,319 Speaker 2: can be reconnected with all that is one thing's for sure, 607 00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:50,600 Speaker 2: A great and wonderful adventure awaits us all.
