I’ve studied the subject of consciousness, including the primacy of consciousness, continuity of consciousness (life after death) and interconnectedness of all instances of consciousness. I’ve also learned about the nature of reality through other consciousness-raising activities, e.g. dream analysis, meditation, creative activities, and observing nature.

Learning points

1. We live in a world of mind (consciousness) — the ‘physical’ world as we experience it does not exist outside our mind.
2. Consciousness arises from a realm beyond space and time that is known by names such as God and quantum vacuum.
3. The brain does not produce consciousness. The brain is involved in processing consciousness but consciousness originates from outside the brain.
4. Expressions of God in the visible universe (e.g. in the lives of you, me, everyone and everything else) are necessary for the evolution of God — God learns through us.
5. All worldly instances of consciousness are in a transactional relationship with God.
6. We cannot exist without God and God cannot evolve without His/Her expressions in us.
7. When our worldly expression ceases upon physical death, our mind continues in the realm beyond space and time (a realm of infinite beauty, love and knowledge).
8. We live in that heavenly realm during our worldly lives and we occasionally experience that level of our being in altered states of consciousness such as heavenly dreams and visions.
9. The heavenly realm varies in levels of awareness, from levels that are close to the Light (God) to those that are far from the Light, i.e. yang (light) and yin (dark), the positive and negative principles of cosmic processes.
10. During worldly life we stream consciousness from our spiritual home, and we continue life in our spiritual home after leaving the worldly realm.
11. Our deceased loved ones returned to their spiritual home, from where aspects of their worldly presence radiated.
12. Heaven is being in our spiritual home. Therefore, people who habitually expressed ignorance (darkness, evil) in this world go home to Heaven in a low realm of the afterlife.
13. There is no evidence (e.g. studies of resuscitated people who remember their experiences of continued consciousness while clinically dead) of what Christianity teaches about “Hell.” Even resuscitated psychopaths report a heavenly afterlife.
14. Like their lives in this world, our deceased loved ones’ lives in Heaven are of mind (spirit / consciousness). Heaven is an infinitely richer experience of our limited experience of the Divine in this world.
15. We will see our loved ones again. Our reunion will be in a realm that is more ‘real’ than this one, where we are all in our prime, and where our life and suffering in the present realm is no more than a hazy dream.
