​When my former father-in-law died, I could feel his presence around me for several days. His presence and essence was of such a nature that it seemed like he was physically right beside me. I could not physically see him, but I did feel and hear him. I could hear his wonder and amazement of what was going on now that he did not have a physical body. He even came to one of my Qigong medical treatments, saying, "I want to see what this Qigong thing is all about. I've heard about it, but now want to see it."  And so he watched and observed a treatment I gave a patient. But then, at the end of the treatment, he secretly delivered a message to my patient and asked her to tell me what he had shared.

My patient then said to me, "There was someone here during my treatment and he asked me to give you a message. He said he was sorry. Does that make sense?"  I said yes, and thanked her for the message and we wrapped up the treatment and I my former father-in-law smiled and then left.

I later experienced another death. My  Qigong teacher, who had been battling lung cancer, died. I felt immediately when she died. I was awakened with that news, got out of bed, being rather upset, and prepared to do a meditation to calm my feelings. But then, while sitting in the dark on my couch, preparing to meditate, I suddenly felt Suzanne's presence in the room. I looked up and saw her. I then heard her voice asking me, “So this is where you live, huh?”  “Is that green tea you’re drinking? Aren’t you going to offer me any?" She then laughed as if she just told a funny joke.  It was if she was physically right there in my room and was exploring my living room, decor, and chatting with me and being so pleased and excited to be free of the pain and difficulty breathing. She was filled with joy and laughter. It was actually rather wonderful. 

I could sense Suzanne. I could see her. I could see her, and I could hear her. I knew she was not physically present, but she felt VERY present and VERY alive. She seemed very much the same as how I knew her. 

For a few days, Suzanne would come and visit and then disappear for awhile, then come again. Her behavior and visits were very similar to what happened with my former father-in-law. I also noticed that with both of these experiences with close friends or family who had just died, the essence of their physical self is still very much a part of who they are and they are able to visit and be present for a couple of days. After that time, their presence or projection changes and they becomes more like a "soft whisper" and more "translucent". It doesn't feel physical anymore - it feels like their presence faded a bit. Finally, after a few more days, I no longer felt their presence. It was as if their essence had changed and transformed. Their spiritual selves were now  fully back on the astral plane.

I received news that a friend of the family was in hospice care and getting ready to die. Carolyn was in her eighties and had failing health, so it was not necessarily a surprise she was near death. Because I have developed the skill oof remote Qigong treatments, I am able to project my energetic self out of my physical body and go to their location. I decided I would see if I could assist Carolyn with this transition and ease her suffering in some way.

I projected my energetic self to Carolyn's bedside in Kansas and when I arrived, I could see Carolyn standing outside her body, which was laying face up in a hospital bed. She greeted me and then resume looking down at her body, just observing it and waiting for it to die so her spiritual self could be released. I told her I was here to see if I cold help in any way and she asked if I knew of a way to speed up this process of a slow lingering death.

I told her I was aware there was something in her chest that would look like a little sliver of white "rice" and that acts kind of like a plug. It will slowly fall out on its own, or you, the owner of your body, can pull it out. She said, "is that all?"  I said "yes, as far as I know".  

She laughed and then yanked it out. IMMEDIATELY the light in the room changed and we were now both standing in a different dimension. We had not "physically moved" but were now somewhere else and it happened in less than a second.

Carolyn's friend, Ruth, who had died the prior month, was standing in this new space, along with several others I didn't know any of them, but they were all friends or family of Carolyn who were there to greet her. I could see what looked like balloons and welcome signs - like the beginnings of a party.

Carolyn and I then flickered back and forth between the physical Kansas world of her hospice room and this new "after life realm" located in a different dimension. This seemed to happen with Carolyn's thoughts. She would have a thought like “I wonder what is happening to my body” and IMMEDIATELY we were flipped back to the bedside of hospice looking down at her physical body.  The nurses were there doing what they needed to do with her physical body and we were both just standing over that now dead body. Carolyn’s thought would then change and IMMEDIATELY we would be back standing in that other realm with Ruth and her other friends who were deceased who were all thrilled to have Carolyn back home.

I told Carolyn she could go back and forth between these realms very easily for a few days, but that ease would fade and change as her earthly essence in the physical world diminishes. From my experience, it is usually a few days. Carolyn was rather tickled and excited about this new information.

What I learned from this experience was how IMMEDIATE and seamless the transition is from our physical dimension to the "post physical life" dimension. No movement was required. It was rather remarkable.
