If you have ever wondered about what advantage LED Shop Lights can provide and the best light, here’s everything you will find out.
Energy Efficiency and cost-effective
Many people called the LED light an energy-efficient bulb because of the fluorescent and halogen options. It saves substantial energy costs.
Interestingly, the LED aim light in a specific direction, unlike conventional bulbs, which transmit the light heat all movement. That is why the LED can reduce wasted light and energy.
Luckily, it’s a cost-effective light. If you worry about how much can cost LED, I would say a shop light can cost less than 20 dollars.
Durability
Durability is crucial when it comes to lighting. I love the durability, you may find too. That is why I like the LED shop light because of its durability.
They are mounted on a circuit board and connected with soldered leads which help to be vulnerable to direct impact. The LED Light light made by the durable polycarbonate plastic and even they break does not lead hazardous substance.
Simple to install and Instant-on
If you worry about complex wiring, shop light is for you. Why? Because it’s comfortable and don’t have to complicated wiring. You don’t need to comprehend electrical knowledge.
Interestingly, the LED come on at 100% brightness almost instantly without over delay. Most of the fluorescent HID lamps do not provide full brightness immediately. The traditional and regular lights take to full brightness at least two to three minute. But, if you choose the LED Lights , you don’t have to worry about it.

The Revolution of Consciousness

We live in a world of ever-changing rules and consequences .
A world that is asking us to push logic aside and put our trust in a system that serves but a few .

The Great Awakening is now upon us. Forever prophesied and now finally ready to be seen, in all of its glory and all of its greatness. For how can a world that has been so full of mistruths and misunderstandings ever be undone without coming to a complete standstill? How could we ever hope to see through the lies without being so deeply impacted by them? How could we ever hope to see all that we must do to change this world without such destruction compounding the very days which are usually filled so cleverly with the lies that our lives have been built on?
It may seem, to many, as the end of the world is upon us. That we are now seeing the revocation of our freedom and liberty as well as the undermining of our basic human rights. It may seem like we are being backed into corners that are impossible to get out of and that no matter which way we turn we are trapped – trapped in this system that seeks to control, divide and conquer. That seeks to keep us chained to our misery and chained to our pain. It may seem like there is no way out, for we have put our trust into this external system for so long that many of us can not see another way, but what we now must start to remember is the power that we hold inside of us.
The power that we have given away to those who would take it but which is now swirling away inside of us, asking to be recognized, begging to be seen. For this is The Revolution of Consciousness, the revolution of our hearts and minds. This is The Great Awakening that has been forever prophesied and is now finally ready to be seen. This IS the end of the world – the end of the world as we know it as we now have the opportunity to create a world that is fair for all.
In order for this to be achieved, we must first start to see the dark, ugly truth that swirls away in the underbelly of our society. The truth that we have been blinded by for so long as it stares us straight in the eyes but alas our eyes have been closed. Closed to the torture, closed to the pain, closed to everything that we are able to be, if only we could set ourselves free from the chains of everything that we are not.

A force that holds such might, as we shine our beautiful light, that nothing will be able to hold us in the darkness that we now have the opportunity to release ourselves from.
When we shine our light on the darkness, the darkness can no longer hide. It is forced to come up from the shadows so that we can shine our light of love upon it and start to heal all that that darkness has created.
We have now entered a merry dance, as we witness the energy of the dark and light, dancing with each other, all in line with the divine.

With every power play that comes from those who so desperately try to hold onto their power, the light will be there, healing all that needs to be healed, for everything that is coming to the surface now is all that we need to see in order to heal it.
Humanity is now being asked to go through an almighty purge. We must purge all that has held us captive and all that has kept us separate from the source and separate from each other. We must release ourselves from the shackles of darkness that stop us from being all that we can be.

We are divine beings having a human experience and that experience, up until now, has been an experience disconnected from the source and disconnected from self.

consciouslifenews--2020-09-17--Thoughts On Life After Death – Does ‘Consciousness’ Survive When We Die?

With over 100 years of research into the nature of death and survival of consciousness , a more sophisticated way of looking at the evidence seems to be emerging .
Based on a number of interviews and wide reading , Lance Butler outlines a new understanding based on science as well as a spiritual experience .
Even Life after Death changes ; like everything else , ideas about Survival have both a history and , if I can put it this way , a future .
Some changes are modestly noticeable if one first looks back to the heyday of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the late nineteenth century and then forward to the late twentieth century .
In that time ouija boards , to put it schematically , were replaced by NDE research .
But there is also a feeling of sameness , even latterly of stagnation , over the period .
During the last twenty or thirty years , too , things have moved forward slowly , but the feeling one still gets reading the main summarising or investigative texts in the field – say Gary Schwartz ’ s of 2003 or David Fontana ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has remained unchanged .
If we put together , for instance , recent examples of mediumship , the NDE material collected since Raymond Moody ’ s of 1975 , the ITC evidence ( by definition modern ) , and Scole we find that although it constitutes evidence , it is roughly the same of evidence as it was thirty-five or , in the case of mediumship , a hundred-and-thirty-five years ago .
Fontana , for instance , is able freely to cite nineteenth-century material , stories from the 1920s and 1940s , research @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of poltergeists from the 1980s , and the Scole material from around 2000 .
It all quite well ; it all adds up to an interesting case for Survival , and it ’ s .
One of the strongest arguments for Survival seems to be the fact that , in spite of modern skepticism and modern analytical and investigative techniques , Life after Death hasn ’ t simply gone away like Phlogiston theory or Geocentrism or Phrenology or bloodletting .
Fontana ’ s evidence is not of a new nature , but it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ A New Paradigm And the evidence has continued to stack up , but it ’ s still apparent at the end of the first decade of the 21st century that the paradigm has not changed much .
More veridical channelings , identifiable voices of the dead on untuned ( sometimes even unplugged ) radios , better NDEs , everything that happened at Scole – these are all useful grist to the Survival mill , but they do not seem to do have done much for a widening of scientific acceptance of any sort @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do not yet seem to have digested quantum physics properly , nor the recent thinking in consciousness studies .
In these circumstances I set out in 2009 to interview a handful of people , all well-known to the SMN , to find out ‘ where they are now ’ on the matter of Life after Death ; I hoped thus to see if there are currently any developments of our Survival paradigm .
The interviewees were Rupert Sheldrake , Bernard Carr , Peter Fenwick , David Lorimer , Iain McGilchrist , Matthew Manning @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ] .
Van Lommel ’ s response to my opening question , which asked directly about the afterlife , was a little startling : ‘ I never talk about life after death , ’ he said .
My heart sank a little .
Had I got hold of the wrong Dutch cardiologist ?
But no , it appeared that what he meant is that ‘ life after death ’ may only temporarily resemble life as we know it here and now ; more importantly the quantum ‘ non-locality ’ of the other side @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and can be considered to ‘ contain ’ past , present , and future simultaneously .
It is ‘ a space or dimension without place or time.
’ The simultaneity of the Life Review during many NDEs is well known and that may give us a hint as to what the ‘ infinite consciousness ’ that apparently awaits us ( while not of course really ‘ awaiting ’ anything ) might be like .
Many people , van Lommel continued , have experienced non-duality , non-locality , greater or ‘ cosmic ’ consciousness @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that is always there , timelessly ; it is the incomprehensible greater ‘ place ’ with which we interface only at very special times .
From the perspective of this quantum zone life and death are irrelevant concepts .
‘ Life ’ in this present world is a species of illusion that we go through , indeed that we actually create .
Life ‘ over there ’ however is certainly not ‘ life as we know it.
’ Interestingly , van Lommel is quite happy to accept that NDE survivors can not find @ @ @ @ @ @ @ adequately .
Of course not .
Our language is a tool for the here-and-now , for space and time .
As is the case with quantum physics , we are able to mouth words about cosmic experiences , but the words have difficulty in demonstrating any significant content .
Beyond The Self ?
I will return to van Lommel at the end of this but for now come with me to visit Peter Fenwick , who also managed to take the feet from under me when I questioned him ; in his case @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hour of explanation of his research into End-of-Life Experiences when he said , with the smaller of his two smiles , ‘ But we do not have a personal self .
We are embedded in the matrix of the universe which is our consciousness.
’ Different words for pretty much what van Lommel was saying , then , and incidentally what Neale Donald Walsch says repeatedly in his series ( ‘ There is only one of us ’ ) .
Fenwick suggests , following Alain Forget , that we can be ‘ awakened @ @ @ @ @ @ @ moments of cosmic consciousness ) and says that the ego ‘ casts a pall over our consciousnesses.
’ We are parts of a whole and need to ‘ crystallize the light body ’ as we do in dreams in similar states .
The ‘ limited ego ’ is a ‘ false self ’ but even a glimpse of universal consciousness ( ‘ available right now !
’ ) shows us a bigger self .
In extreme NDE cases , Peter pointed out , people seem to go very far , ‘ to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about to collapse completely.
’ In this life , we merely make up our stories of life and death .
When we recognize that the real is universal consciousness , questions of Survival become non-questions because there is really no birth and no death , just consciousness .
Religions , seeking vainly to sift the saved from the non-saved , have lost their spiritual nature by not recognizing this universality .
Bernard Carr filled in some of the detail of this radical and rather Buddhist conception of the afterlife .
He suggested a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lead up to or end in ultimate consciousness ( ‘ anatta ’ – the empty center of the onion ) but meanwhile , there are astral levels and reincarnation possibilities as we all head for what must , by definition , be the only possible goal .
For Carr , there are different levels of space to accommodate these dimensions and the mind creates the world both here and hereafter where a species of ‘ dream-world ’ awaits us .
For Rupert Sheldrake , we already know what it will be like to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of possessing a ‘ dream-body ’ at night when we sleep .
And , of course , for a physicist like Carr , everything comes down to energy , that is frequencies .
Already for Sheldrake , there are , famously , morphic fields in which the unknown energies , perhaps those of the ‘ non-local ’ quantum ‘ world , ’ operate .
And all this , to go back to van Lommel ’ s opening remarks , is here as may become apparent after death when we may begin to ‘ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ Sheldrake also observed , as many now would , that , for a while at least , we may get the Life after Death that we expect .
We can move beyond our entrapment in desires and the unreal and come to expect something higher and more real , but then again we may not escape from our present lives all at once .
He approves of imagination in the shape of myths , fairytales , and dreams , and points out that these are fields that are not based on material @ @ @ @ @ @ @ possibilities contained in the infinite quantum field .
Like Carr , Sheldrake is ‘ not dualistic , ’ ‘ not a super-naturalist ’ ; there is no separate realm into which we can ‘ go.
’ Mathew Manning , speaking from the deepest and widest experience of things psychic , spiritual , or , as I would now say , ‘ non-local , ’ stressed that knowledge of Life after Death is not ordinary knowledge .
In his view , we learn what we need to know in this life and then move @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is also more interested in energy than in ‘ life ’ as a metaphor for Survival .
His famous psychic recreation of Durer ’ s drawings , and of many other works of art and texts in languages unknown to him , are not so much , he says , ‘ Durer coming through ’ ( the older version of Life after Death perhaps ) as a psychic picking-up of the energy of the original moment of artistic creation ; it is less a matter of an individual ’ s survival and more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scientists tell us it does .
By this time I felt that some sort of a pattern was building up .
The new paradigm is perhaps only subtly different from the old one but it seemed to be emerging with some new and useful emphases .
The claims now made about Survival are less personal than they used to be , for one thing , and the respect for the ideas of quantum-physics more solid .
David Lorimer , for instance , told me that he sees Life after Death as ‘ another @ @ @ @ @ @ @ may be ‘ a less distinctive personality that is you.
’ He says he is less concerned now with the survival of his own personality as such .
We may come to see that each ‘ personality ’ is ‘ an expression of the universal.
’ He quotes Betty Kovacs : ‘ Birth is a coming into being of the form ( ‘ me ’ ) and death a dissolution of form.
’ Cosmic consciousness would be the ‘ dissolution of all boundaries.
’ We are like blocks of ice floating in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is development , evolution , both here and hereafter , but we all belong to and return to the same sea in the end .
This is not new , of course , it belongs in Hinduism and Buddhism where we become more ‘ ourselves ’ by becoming less our individual selves ; it is also , according to Lorimer , the inevitable direction of consciousness studies as pursued since the founding of the in 1994 .
The most ‘ materialist ’ person I interviewed was Iain McGilchrist .
For him , ‘ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ kind of being we might have ’ ; as he pointed out to me , ‘ the universe has gone to an awful lot of trouble to produce this material world.
’ Surely a useful corrective .
If , to put it bluntly , cosmic consciousness is so terrific , why did it have to add us , messy as we are , not to mention the immense quantum charade of the universe , to what it already had ?
Why bother to Big Bang if you could just go on being perfect @ @ @ @ @ @ @ answers to these questions but McGilchrist ’ s approach reminds us not to fall into the trap of treating spirituality as if our dinners , our doings , and our bodies didn ’ t matter at all .
But McGilchrist too is singing off the same page of our now-slightly-revised hymn book .
As he put it , ‘ the notion that one would be forever oneself is an appalling idea.
’ For him consciousness ‘ pre-exists us and isn ’ t created by our brains ; our brains simply transmit or transduce @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will be an ‘ I ’ – it is ‘ God , ’ we may come to see , who is the ‘ Great I ’ that is all of us .
The publication in 2010 of Pim van Lommel ’ s has been tremendously convenient for this small investigation .
His book , subtitled accurately ‘ The Science of the Near-Death Experience , ’ seems to me to affect the shift in thinking that we have needed .
It is not a huge shift but it should now change the quality of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which I conducted before Pim ’ s book had been translated into English fit very well with its proposals .
After undertaking them and reading Pim ’ s book I begin to discern the outlines of the altered paradigm .
Here are some of its main features : • We shouldn ’ t be naïve about any possible life after death .
The appearance of deceased relatives at the death-bed or during NDEs or channeling , in particular , may not mean that Granny is continuing her old life more or less as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ may be more a matter of thought , of our wishes and , of precisely , appearance .
• The hitherto rather weak connection between Quantum Physics and Survival looks as if it has gained a toe-hold in the intellectually-respectable world .
‘ Non-locality , ’ a term with origins found exclusively in QP , maybe an appropriate replacement for the older term ‘ spiritual.
’ Physics too does not stop and will surely become less and less like its nineteenth-century avatar ; in other words , it will become weirder , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ associated with consciousness , more ‘ non-local , ’ less simply ‘ materialist.
’ • Life after Death is really not either ‘ life ’ as we know it or ‘ after ’ our deaths , for the ‘ non-local ’ , is always with us and underpins our world and our lives all the time ; or perhaps I should use some unthinkable expression such as ‘ all the non-time.
’ • NDEs do definitely occur during periods of negative brain activity .
Whatever else they may mean they constitute clear evidence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whole story when it comes to explaining consciousness .

In Brief The Facts:Some fascinating research has been conducted over the past several years that make the discussion of life after death quite interesting.
Reflect On:Ancient wisdom and teachings have been ‘proven' right with regards to quantum physics, neuroscience, and health in many different ways. Would the same apply to life after death? Can we ever really know?
With over 100 years of research into the nature of death and survival of consciousness, a more sophisticated way of looking at the evidence seems to be emerging. Based on a number of interviews and wide reading, Lance Butler outlines a new understanding based on science as well as a spiritual experience.
Even Life after Death changes; like everything else, ideas about Survival have both a history and, if I can put it this way, a future. Some changes are modestly noticeable if one first looks back to the heyday of Spiritualism and the founding of the SPR in the late nineteenth century and then forward to the late twentieth century. In that time ouija boards, to put it schematically, were replaced by NDE research. But there is also a feeling of sameness, even latterly of stagnation, over the period.
During the last twenty or thirty years, too, things have moved forward slowly, but the feeling one still gets reading the main summarising or investigative texts in the field – say Gary Schwartz’s The Afterlife Experiments of 2003 or David Fontana’s Is There An Afterlife? of 2005 – is that the paradigm has remained unchanged. If we put together, for instance, recent examples of mediumship, the NDE material collected since Raymond Moody’s Life after Life of 1975, the ITC evidence (by definition modern), and Scole we find that although it constitutes more evidence, it is roughly the same kind of evidence as it was thirty-five or, in the case of mediumship, a hundred-and-thirty-five years ago.
Fontana, for instance, is able freely to cite nineteenth-century material, stories from the 1920s and 1940s, research from the 1960s, his own experience of poltergeists from the 1980s, and the Scole material from around 2000. It all fits quite well; it all adds up to an interesting case for Survival, and it’s still there. One of the strongest arguments for Survival seems to be the fact that, in spite of modern skepticism and modern analytical and investigative techniques, Life after Death hasn’t simply gone away like Phlogiston theory or Geocentrism or Phrenology or bloodletting. Fontana’s evidence is not of a new nature, but it is increasingly solid.
The Need For A New Paradigm
And the evidence has continued to stack up, but it’s still apparent at the end of the first decade of the 21st century that the paradigm has not changed much. More veridical channelings, identifiable voices of the dead on untuned (sometimes even unplugged) radios, better NDEs, everything that happened at Scole – these are all useful grist to the Survival mill, but they do not seem to do have done much for a widening of scientific acceptance of any sort of afterlife. In particular, we do not yet seem to have digested quantum physics properly, nor the recent thinking in consciousness studies.
In these circumstances I set out in 2009 to interview a handful of people, all well-known to the SMN, to find out ‘where they are now’ on the matter of Life after Death; I hoped thus to see if there are currently any developments of our Survival paradigm. The interviewees were Rupert Sheldrake, Bernard Carr, Peter Fenwick, David Lorimer, Iain McGilchrist, Matthew Manning, and Pim van Lommel[1].
Van Lommel’s response to my opening question, which asked directly about the afterlife, was a little startling: ‘I never talk about life after death,’ he said. My heart sank a little. Had I got hold of the wrong Dutch cardiologist? But no, it appeared that what he meant is that ‘life after death’ may only temporarily resemble life as we know it here and now; more importantly the quantum ‘non-locality’ of the other side means that it is without the time and can be considered to ‘contain’ past, present, and future simultaneously. It is ‘a space or dimension without place or time.’ The simultaneity of the Life Review during many NDEs is well known and that may give us a hint as to what the ‘infinite consciousness’ that apparently awaits us (while not of course really ‘awaiting’ anything) might be like.
Many people, van Lommel continued, have experienced non-duality, non-locality, greater or ‘cosmic’ consciousness. That is the ‘thing’ that is always there, timelessly; it is the incomprehensible greater ‘place’ with which we interface only at very special times. From the perspective of this quantum zone life and death are irrelevant concepts. ‘Life’ in this present world is a species of illusion that we go through, indeed that we actually create. Life ‘over there’ however is certainly not ‘life as we know it.’
Interestingly, van Lommel is quite happy to accept that NDE survivors cannot find the right language to describe their experiences adequately. Of course not. Our language is a tool for the here-and-now, for space and time. As is the case with quantum physics, we are able to mouth words about cosmic experiences, but the words have difficulty in demonstrating any significant content.
Beyond The Self?
I will return to van Lommel at the end of this but for now come with me to visit Peter Fenwick, who also managed to take the feet from under me when I questioned him; in his case, the moment came after a good hour of explanation of his research into End-of-Life Experiences when he said, with the smaller of his two smiles, ‘But we do not have a personal self. We are embedded in the matrix of the universe which is our consciousness.’ Different words for pretty much what van Lommel was saying, then, and incidentally what Neale Donald Walsch says repeatedly in his Conversations with God series (‘There is only one of us’).
Fenwick suggests, following Alain Forget, that we can be ‘awakened’ here in this life (to moments of cosmic consciousness) and says that the ego ‘casts a pall over our consciousnesses.’ We are parts of a whole and need to ‘crystallize the light body’ as we do in dreams in similar states. The ‘limited ego’ is a ‘false self’ but even a glimpse of universal consciousness (‘available right now!’) shows us a bigger self.
In extreme NDE cases, Peter pointed out, people seem to go very far, ‘to the point where the illusion of separateness is about to collapse completely.’ In this life, we merely make up our stories of life and death. When we recognize that the real is universal consciousness, questions of Survival become non-questions because there is really no birth and no death, just consciousness. Religions, seeking vainly to sift the saved from the non-saved, have lost their spiritual nature by not recognizing this universality.
Bernard Carr filled in some of the detail of this radical and rather Buddhist conception of the afterlife. He suggested a ‘hierarchy of dimensions’ that may lead up to or end in ultimate consciousness (‘anatta’ – the empty center of the onion) but meanwhile, there are astral levels and reincarnation possibilities as we all head for what must, by definition, be the only possible goal. For Carr, there are different levels of space to accommodate these dimensions and the mind creates the world both here and hereafter where a species of ‘dream-world’ awaits us.
New Metaphors
For Rupert Sheldrake, we already know what it will be like to be disembodied because we have the experience of possessing a ‘dream-body’ at night when we sleep. And, of course, for a physicist like Carr, everything comes down to energy, that is frequencies. Already for Sheldrake, there are, famously, morphic fields in which the unknown energies, perhaps those of the ‘non-local’ quantum ‘world,’ operate. And all this, to go back to van Lommel’s opening remarks, is here as may become apparent after death when we may begin to ‘know the place for the first time.’
Sheldrake also observed, as many now would, that, for a while at least, we may get the Life after Death that we expect. We can move beyond our entrapment in desires and the unreal and come to expect something higher and more real, but then again we may not escape from our present lives all at once. He approves of imagination in the shape of myths, fairytales, and dreams, and points out that these are fields that are not based on material reality. They enact some of the possibilities contained in the infinite quantum field. Like Carr, Sheldrake is ‘not dualistic,’ ‘not a super-naturalist’; there is no separate realm into which we can ‘go.’
Mathew Manning, speaking from the deepest and widest experience of things psychic, spiritual, or, as I would now say, ‘non-local,’ stressed that knowledge of Life after Death is not ordinary knowledge. In his view, we learn what we need to know in this life and then move on to less knowable realms. He is also more interested in energy than in ‘life’ as a metaphor for Survival. His famous psychic recreation of Durer’s drawings, and of many other works of art and texts in languages unknown to him, are not so much, he says, ‘Durer coming through’ (the older version of Life after Death perhaps) as a psychic picking-up of the energy of the original moment of artistic creation; it is less a matter of an individual’s survival and more a matter of energy circulating as the scientists tell us it does.
Personality & Beyond
By this time I felt that some sort of a pattern was building up. The new paradigm is perhaps only subtly different from the old one but it seemed to be emerging with some new and useful emphases. The claims now made about Survival are less personal than they used to be, for one thing, and the respect for the ideas of quantum-physics more solid. David Lorimer, for instance, told me that he sees Life after Death as ‘another state of consciousness’ in which it may be ‘a less distinctive personality that is you.’ He says he is less concerned now with the survival of his own personality as such. We may come to see that each ‘personality’ is ‘an expression of the universal.’ He quotes Betty Kovacs: ‘Birth is a coming into being of the form (‘me’) and death a dissolution of form.’ Cosmic consciousness would be the ‘dissolution of all boundaries.’ We are like blocks of ice floating in the Arctic Ocean of universal consciousness; there is development, evolution, both here and hereafter, but we all belong to and return to the same sea in the end. This is not new, of course, it belongs in Hinduism and Buddhism where we become more ‘ourselves’ by becoming less our individual selves; it is also, according to Lorimer, the inevitable direction of consciousness studies as pursued since the founding of the Journal of Consciousness Studies in 1994.
The most ‘materialist’ person I interviewed was Iain McGilchrist. For him, ‘materiality is an important part of any kind of being we might have’; as he pointed out to me, ‘the universe has gone to an awful lot of trouble to produce this material world.’ Surely a useful corrective. If, to put it bluntly, cosmic consciousness is so terrific, why did it have to add us, messy as we are, not to mention the immense quantum charade of the universe, to what it already had? Why bother to Big Bang if you could just go on being perfect? I know that there are good answers to these questions but McGilchrist’s approach reminds us not to fall into the trap of treating spirituality as if our dinners, our doings, and our bodies didn’t matter at all.
But McGilchrist too is singing off the same page of our now-slightly-revised hymn book. As he put it, ‘the notion that one would be forever oneself is an appalling idea.’ For him consciousness ‘pre-exists us and isn’t created by our brains; our brains simply transmit or transduce it.’ But there is and always will be an ‘I’ – it is ‘God,’ we may come to see, who is the ‘Great I’ that is all of us.
New Directions
The publication in 2010 of Pim van Lommel’s Consciousness Beyond Life has been tremendously convenient for this small investigation. His book, subtitled accurately ‘The Science of the Near-Death Experience,’ seems to me to affect the shift in thinking that we have needed. It is not a huge shift but it should now change the quality of the debate.
Encouragingly, the interviews which I conducted before Pim’s book had been translated into English fit very well with its proposals. After undertaking them and reading Pim’s book I begin to discern the outlines of the altered paradigm. Here are some of its main features:
We shouldn’t be naïve about any possible life after death. The appearance of deceased relatives at the death-bed or during NDEs or channeling, in particular, may not mean that Granny is continuing her old life more or less as before. Life in another ‘dimension’ may be more a matter of thought, of our wishes and, of precisely, appearance.
The hitherto rather weak connection between Quantum Physics and Survival looks as if it has gained a toe-hold in the intellectually-respectable world. ‘Non-locality,’ a term with origins found exclusively in QP, maybe an appropriate replacement for the older term ‘spiritual.’ Physics too does not stop and will surely become less and less like its nineteenth-century avatar; in other words, it will become weirder, looser, more improbable, more closely associated with consciousness, more ‘non-local,’ less simply ‘materialist.’
Life after Death is really not either ‘life’ as we know it or ‘after’ our deaths, for the ‘non-local’, is always with us and underpins our world and our lives all the time; or perhaps I should use some unthinkable expression such as ‘all the non-time.’
NDEs do definitely occur during periods of negative brain activity. Whatever else they may mean they constitute clear evidence that the brain cannot be the whole story when it comes to explaining consciousness. Van Lommel’s research has changed things a little, and it is only the beginning of a long process whose end seems, at the very least, less and less likely to be straightforward materialism as we have known it.
In the matter of Survival, we should expect both everything and not too much. By ‘everything’ I mean that Survival is connected with the universal or ‘infinite’ consciousness from the perspective of which all other things are apparently in some way illusory. By ‘not too much’ I mean that one of the main things one may see-through, as consciousness is liberated from the material, is one’s ‘own’ personality.
‘Energy’ is perhaps the metaphor that best connects the world of the non-local (or transpersonal or spiritual) with the world of physics. We do not yet know how energy can exist in the non-local where the energetic, involving movement by definition, should be absent because in that ‘dimension’ there is no time or space. But that there is some energy there – in Dark Matter or as Dark Energy perhaps – is evident from the fact that we are here at all; it was some sort of energy that brought about the Big Bang and before that there was no locality by definition.
Here, and hereafter, we seem to create our own worlds through our personal consciousnesses. The great or universal consciousness may be what creates the universe. We may do the smaller job of creating our own ‘worlds’ and ‘lives.’ Language makes all, but it cannot describe adequately the process by which it does this.
Buddhists, Hindus, and mystics of all stripes have the right approach. We need to read Angelus Silesius rather than too much academic philosophy. We, or parts of us, maybe temporarily reincarnated. For a while, after death, we may perhaps need to ‘live’ in a place that we recognize (we won’t find that too hard to create presumably) but there would then be moving on, into realms literally indescribable.
The body is a particle and consciousness is a wave. Our particles at death undergo what they have always undergone, change into something else. The waves of consciousness persist just as the scientists tell us all energy forms persist, forever. But we do not infinitely persist as the ‘us’ we currently think we are; ‘we’ will persist, if we do, as something endlessly ‘greater’.
This is all embarrassingly similar to the propositions of many religions. But it is not, in itself, religion at all.
Inverted commas are needed in this area passim. ‘Life’ ‘after’ ‘death?’ We do not, and cannot, really ‘know’ about all this. Not even with the sensible and modest knowledge of science. Especially not with that.

A comprehensive report released Wednesday shines a spotlight on the “pro-corporate, anti-worker agenda” that has defined President Donald Trump's first term by detailing 50 ways his administration has made life harder for working people with repeated attacks on labor rights and protections.
“The Trump administration's mishandling of the Covid-19 pandemic marks the administration's most glaring failure of leadership, but it is in no way distinct from its approach to governing since President Trump's first day on the job.”
—Celine McNicholas, EPI
The Economic Policy Institute (EPI) report features his “most egregious attacks on working people” since the president took office in 2017 after campaigning as their champion. The review comes as the country endures the coronavirus pandemic and resulting economic crisis—and as Trump prepares to face off against Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden in November.
While the country's Covid-19 death toll and caseload—now more than 196,000 and 6.6 million, respectively—have mounted in recent months, Biden has taken aim at the president's mismanagement of the pandemic, tweeting Tuesday that “Donald Trump is not responsible Covid-19, but he is responsible for his failed response and for lying to the American people.”
EPI director of government affairs and labor counsel Celine McNicholas, who co-authored the new report, said in a statement Wednesday that “the Trump administration's mishandling of the Covid-19 pandemic marks the administration's most glaring failure of leadership, but it is in no way distinct from its approach to governing since President Trump's first day on the job.”
Throughout Trump's tenure as president, McNicholas added, “the administration has systematically promoted the interests of corporate executives and shareholders over those of working people and failed to protect workers' safety, wages, and rights.”
During the pandemic, the Trump administration has failed to “support adequate fiscal stimulus” or “act to protect the health of workers,” the report notes, but even before the current crisis began, the administration “engaged in persistent efforts to take away workers' healthcare.”
While the administration—despite the risk to workers amid the pandemic—allowed poultry plants to boost line speeds and the president used executive power to keep meat-processing plants open, Trump made his position on workplace safety clear long before the coronavirus hit.
Under Trump, Occupational Safety and Health Administration “workplace inspection activity has fallen relative to the previous two administrations,” according to EPI. “OSHA also currently has the lowest number of inspectors in the history of the agency. Further, more complex health-related inspections are occurring less frequently.”
Since the pandemic struck the U.S., the agency “has refused to issue any required measures—via an emergency temporary infectious disease standard—to protect workers from the virus,” the report notes. “OSHA even rejected a petition by unions representing affected workers and by the AFL-CIO for mandatory rules to protect workers from exposure to the coronavirus on the job.”
As report co-author and EPI policy associate Margaret Poydock put it: “The pandemic has merely provided the administration another opportunity to continue its attacks on workers' rights. Instead of instituting policies to protect the nation's essential workers, the administration has undermined workplace safety standards.”
With a nod to a potential Biden victory in this year's general election, Poydock added “it is critical that a new administration works with the same diligence to reverse Trump's anti-worker policies and also advance a workers' agenda that provides working people with the rights and protections they need and deserve.”
