Now 9 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 1: here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on iHeart 10 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 1: Radio and welcome back to Coast to Coast. Let me 11 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,880 Speaker 1: introduce our guest. He was with us about a year ago. 12 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:42,640 Speaker 1: Dr Robert Davis, PhD internationally recognized scientists of sensory neuroscience 13 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: and served as a professor at the State University of 14 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: New York for more than thirty years. He also serves 15 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,159 Speaker 1: as a member of the Board of Directors and research 16 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: team of the Dr Edgar Mitchell Foundation for Research into 17 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: Extraterrestrial and Extraordinary Experiences. Robert's research and investigation into the 18 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: UFO phenomenon convinced him that the phenomenon remains unsolved. It's 19 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,960 Speaker 1: a source of considerable debate among millions worldwide, of course, 20 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:13,479 Speaker 1: and is a very important concern, unfortunately ignored by the 21 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 1: general scientific community, as you well know by now, Robert, 22 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 1: welcome back to the program. It's a pleasure to be 23 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:23,679 Speaker 1: with you, George. This is uh a remarkable work that 24 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 1: you did, and you have cited some incredible heavy hitters 25 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: in the field of after death experiences. Tell me about 26 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: the evolution for you because you wrote a book called 27 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: the UFO Phenomenon and in this one is equally as fascinating. 28 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:42,400 Speaker 1: How did you get into that? Well, thanks, Uh comes 29 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 1: from my background the neurosciences, my my interest um in 30 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 1: consciousness and more recently my research with the doctor Amicial 31 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: Foundation for a Surgeon Exetressill and Extraordinary Experiences, which will 32 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: refer to as free which was founded by Dr Egan Mitchell, 33 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: the physicists and astronaut who are the sixth person to 34 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: walk on the Moon, and astro physicists Dr Rudy Shield 35 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 1: from Harvard University, Mary Rodwell noted the researcher in the field, 36 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: and Ray Hernandez, an attorney and and this foundation eventually 37 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: conducted research over a two year time period into the 38 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 1: area of consciousness and how advanced physics, in particular the 39 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: quantum hologram theory of physics and consciousness as developed by 40 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: Dr Mitchill can possibly and I emphasize possibly can explain 41 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: or provide some degree of understanding how old diverse phenomena 42 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: such as uphos and energes, out of body experiences uh 43 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: in even e SP and the possibility of life after death, 44 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: implying of course that consciousness is an independent entity or 45 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 1: component from the brain, although of course it is into related. 46 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: But the point is quantum. So now looking at the 47 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: possibility that consciousness may indeed be a separate entity that 48 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 1: possibly could persist at the bodily death. So all these 49 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:15,119 Speaker 1: events that we consider as paranormal may eventually be explained, 50 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: and consciousness may be the unifying factor that that inter 51 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: relates many of these unexplained phenomenon that we are addressing. 52 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: In fact, we see that consciousness is the key components 53 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: and that businessists and mainstream science should focus more heavily 54 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,639 Speaker 1: in this area. And Free again has been involved in 55 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: two year long study of looking at the effects of 56 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: over thirty two individuals who report to have contact experiences 57 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: with non human intelligences, and we conducted quantitative survey using 58 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 1: over firefronted questions with these subjects, and we addressed several 59 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: topic areas um which include the physical, psychological, perceptual, anomalous 60 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: aspects of reported contact experience is and our results reveal 61 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: uh complex interactions with perceived believe it or not young 62 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: human intelligences and involved psycho spiritual transformations, non ordinary states 63 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: of consciousness as well as paranormal experiences. And what's the 64 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 1: most significant aspect of our results because still ongoing, is 65 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: that about this represents over individuals of that population claimed 66 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: that their contact experience changed their life in a positive way. 67 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: And in fact, of that population, I represented about two 68 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: two tho individuals reported that they did not want their 69 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: contact experience to end. And the likely reason for this 70 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: positive response of their contact experiences is that they claim 71 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: to have major positive transformations in the form of greater 72 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: self competent, self love, self wealth, understanding life in a peace, 73 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: extreme reduction and negative thought. And they appear more humane, 74 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: more positive and happy as a results believe it or 75 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: not of their outcome of their contact experience. This is 76 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 1: not uniform across all such acts. Less than on less 77 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: than twenty percent of the subject actually reported have negative 78 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: contact experiences, but this is largely positive and it parallels. 79 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 1: The interesting component here as a relates to consciousness is 80 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 1: that it parallels the the transplemitted outcomes that individuals will have. 81 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: Nd ease and og Ese reports there are unique similarities 82 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: that have been conducted in one research study by Kenneth 83 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: Bring quite a while ago that looked at these two 84 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: phenomena and came to the same conclusion. We are coming 85 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,919 Speaker 1: to that that there is a positive outcome resulting from 86 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: these unique unexplained phenomena like ndees and interactions with non 87 00:05:54,480 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: human intelligence associated with or without unidentified aerial phenomena. Would 88 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: would these people doctor that have changed their personalities dramatically 89 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: these for example, Well, they claim to. The question remains 90 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: whether or not it is a long standing outcome. Believe 91 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: we believe it is because we see this in endy years. 92 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: They firmly I don't believe that that once the physical 93 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: body dies, the hard drive crashes on the screen, phase 94 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: the black forever. They firmly believe that that there is 95 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: an alternate reality and they come to that realization it's 96 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 1: real in their minds. Whether or not it is actually true. 97 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: Is it's certainly subject speculation. Um. But the findings in 98 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: our study we you know, show that over actually report 99 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: having been contacted in a non physical way and not 100 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: physically abducted. And this goes against the traditionally help believed 101 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: by by ufologists, those who claimed that people are quickly 102 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 1: taken on board the UFO and and experimental biologic procedures 103 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: are are conducted for a variety of different reasons. Well, 104 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: we do see that, but but it only occurs at 105 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: least a coin to their reports. In less than one 106 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: quarter of the populations of the majority again report to 107 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: have uh not have that is, conscious memories. They don't 108 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: have conscious memories of being on board and craft. It's 109 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: more of a non physical conscious like experience. Although there 110 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: is indeed a physical component associated apparently with this phenomena, 111 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: so it seems to be both a physical aspect as 112 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: well as a non physical one. And and then the 113 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 1: key is that three quarters of those who claim to 114 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: have these non human intelligence contact experiences considerate consider themselves 115 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: as contact ease and more in the lords um, it's 116 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: more of an egalitarian they're being treated as more of 117 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: an equal as part of their so called abduction experience, 118 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: which is not a good term, of course, but nevertheless, 119 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: one quarter or sold do consider it to be an 120 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: abduction like UH experience, but it's done with permission and compassion, 121 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: although again of a small descent do say it's the 122 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: negative effect. But what is uniquely interesting is that our 123 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: outcomes suggests that suggests both a physical and non physical 124 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: type of contact experience that probably involves some type of 125 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 1: thought of body experience. It's similar to conclusion is made 126 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: by the astrophysicist Alan Heynek, who who as the audience, 127 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: has led many UFO experiments undertaken by the US there 128 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 1: for Blue Book, and he concluded that that this phenomena 129 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,439 Speaker 1: encompasses the physical and the psychic, the material and the mental. 130 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 1: And Jacques Valet also noted, you follow just as we're 131 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: dealing with something again that it's both technical, technological and 132 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: psychic UH, and that there's some aspect of manipulation of 133 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: dimensions going on here whatever that whatever that means. But 134 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: you know, but what's key here is that our study 135 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 1: again over three thousand individuals are supporting what they have said. 136 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 1: Yet you followed this generally focus on the nuts and 137 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: boats and that's fine. I commend them. We learned, we 138 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 1: learned a great deal of at the kinematic behavior of 139 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: this phenomena, but we have not advanced. I will understand 140 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:32,079 Speaker 1: any great degree over many decades by focusing continually unresurspected 141 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 1: events like Rosweil and Rendel shimp Uh. It's fine, let's 142 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: study it. I enjoy listening to it. It's entertainment, its business, 143 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: and you know, go for it. But but science, mainstream 144 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: science has become more involved in looking at these phenomena 145 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: because the aspect of consciousness it seems to be a 146 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: critical component of it. And we may be able to 147 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: better understand the aspect of consciousness and possibly even reality 148 00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: itself by looking at various phenomena like in the easy 149 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 1: e SP remote viewing for instance, telepathy uh, near death 150 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: and not about the experience of course, as well as 151 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:12,439 Speaker 1: UFO like related contact experiences, and it seems that there 152 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: is an underlying common component to each that is consciousness. 153 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: That's why I wrote my book Life After Death Analysis 154 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,839 Speaker 1: of the evidence and your listeners can go to my 155 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: website to UFO phenomenon dot com to get more information 156 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: about articles written by members of Free that Talk about 157 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: the possible explanations, and Free does not content at any 158 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,599 Speaker 1: firm conclusions based on our results. We're just presenting the 159 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 1: result hoping that other scientists UH may continue to build 160 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: upon the foundation that we're attempting to establish here UH 161 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: we are we simply want to lay that groundwork for 162 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: others to to incorporate, debate UH and consider as as 163 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 1: a possible line of research to better understand an aspect 164 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 1: of consciousness, which if is independent of the brain, then 165 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 1: you can make an argument that there possibly could be 166 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 1: continuity of consciousness after bodily death or in other words, 167 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: a form of life after death, whatever that means. So 168 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 1: that the is the enigma is is consciousness an emergent 169 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: property of the brain, uh, which ends when the brain 170 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: dies so to speak? Or or or it is an 171 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: epi phenomenon of reality yourself.
