I was a therapist for 30 years. I look upon the table as a place of healing. The stories I could tell..I will say that we are, very much, multi dimensional beings. I constantly work on my soul's laundry and my dreams give me information to use on this journey.
Sometimes the consciousness of one of my ancestors come through my dreams with information. Sometimes old friends, who have passed on. One came through, reminding me that the heart is the chief motivator in this physical life.
It was very real with a Native American chief's headress surrounding the heart and lighted up Las Vegas style. You would have loved it and I drew it out. Last night I dreamt I was back in a classroom, again. So there will be a learning situation coming up, this week.
I am so glad I found you on substack..I can understand most of your scientific writings yet not all of them however I do resonate with all of your spiritual insights. Thank you for posting this one.
I’ve followed you since the earliest days of the “Scamdemic.” Your scientific expertise in so many disciplines has been an irreplaceable benefit. I fall short of understanding much of it. But, I try every time I open your posts. I’ve long thought your extraordinary intelligence is a divine gift from God.
This post is unlike anything I’ve read from any source. It reveals a level of spirituality free from traditional Christianity and its well meaning disciples. It should read by all of them for a remedial course in non-denominational objectivity.
The your trips abroad for conferences give your insights real cred. The off-duty pictures make them travelogue-worthy.
Never stop sharing hobbies like surfing. The images bring joy to us all. Blessings to you.
Jessica, you are truly the most advanced soul in the realm! You understand it all and probably will not come back through reincarnation again 💗. You have learned and experienced everything a soul seeks. I hope I get to meet you in this lifetime.....you are my hero🙂
Oh.....I believe reincarnation is a fact. When my three year old son told me ( in GREAT detail) about his other life. He included details of where he lived that a 3 year old child could not have known much less comprehend. It started with him telling me " my other mom made better dinner than you Mom". That lead me to ask more questions which turned into a 30 min conversation about his past life in India. He didn't even know the name of the country which he was currently born in ( Canada) but he knew his past life country. So for me? Reincarnation is a FACT.
“I do not yet claim to fully understand the relationship between soul and consciousness.”
I can give you a hint. Whether or not you see it is up to you.
The soul *is* the relationship between the mind (consciousness) and the Divine Gift — that spirit of God that is lovingly and universally bestowed by the Creator on his children.
Your mind, your consciousness, as you know it now, is on loan to you while your soul develops.
Another way of expressing the same idea is that your soul is the (spiritual consequence of the) *pattern* of your life of moral and spiritual decision making.
The truly liberating thing to understand is that the soul, your living relationship with the Creator, is of eternal potential and survives the dissolution of the material body and the termination of the material mind mechanism that hosts your consciousness and identity.
The challenge is to transfer the locus of your identity to the soul, thus ensuring continuity of identity. This takes sincere and sustained effort.
Powerful article - darkness is not the opposite of Light, it is the Absence of Light - our Creator Creates - evil destroys. Grateful to be walking in the Light ...
"I believe that we are souls (or energy with unique conscious signatures, if you wish) - wrapped in warm squishy human suits - able to sense the world around us in “real” ways wherein these sensations translate into feelings and emotions - a sense of self (see: the Id (the ego))- that oftentimes supersedes scientific explanation."
I was disquieted last week to see somebody assert that you might basically be a Mossad disinformation operative, an extremist view from somebody who has earned my respect in other endeavors.
It's just not plausible that somebody with a mind to work in a mechanical-world sort of perspective, which being part of that machine essentially requires, would generate the deep, existential musings along these lines, which are the antithesis of that mechanistic worldview.
Just wanted to let you know that, Soul-Sister. ;-}
My favorite subject, The Soul. I imagine your Soul Jesica has been around the block a few times 😉. When I read anything you write and I see your photographs, I always get the sense you live in absolute wonder of life and how precious it is. Thank you for all your work. I don’t always understand the Science, but am grateful for your teachings. I’m curious. Have you read, The Journey of Souls by Dr. Newton?
If we're all immortal souls, why does the population (of humans) keep expanding? Are new souls being created? because I don't think there were 8 or 9 billion people in ancient history. Do trees and bugs have a soul? What about the tiniest lifeforms and viruses?
Thanks for the article Jessica, you really got me thinking and wondering.
Thank you, Jessica. It is a joy to read your articulation of your journey toward truth. The idea that infinity means having no beginning and having no end strikes me as an inherent characteristic of God, and of God alone. That very thought expands my understanding of God because the reality of “time” was created at Creation when He not only set the dimensions of time and space, but the potential for relationship with his creation. For this relationship I am eternally grateful [eternity forward, but not rearward]. “Let us make mankind in our own image”. Quite challenging to grasp the depths of this statement.
He, what god or whose god are we speaking about here. Nice platitudes but lack a sense of reality. Check my commentaries above and see where it takes you. Let us make man in OUR image and likeness but you forgot the most important part, 'And now the man has become one of US, to know good and EVIL etc. read that book from a scholars perspective and it has no religious connotations what so ever. Did the Jews have a control mechanism over us with their versions of god? The answers are in recommended book form in my article above. Good luck to all of us.
As to your "Why?" question, there are (of course unproven) rumors of cloning labs on other remote islands. Difficult to nail down, but not difficult to imagine.
Ms. Jessica. There are two power in the universe. Darkness and 'visible' light. Because Darkness is light too.
This is what you say." Darkness, after all, is simply an absence of light." Darkness is also light. BLACK light. You can even buy black light fluorescent tubes at Home Depot.
In fact black light is destructive ,like laser. Can be 1000 Celsius.. Visible light is life giving. 38 Celsius.
The Sun is BLACK. Only the gases around makes it visible. We can see its body when these gaseous clouds move. These clouds act like a filter against the deadly black light. Call them the Sun Spots.
These are the cause of skin cancer .
Than about Death . The Egyptian were much more knowledgeable then the Epstein's ever.
Look up their God . His name is Sokar. He is the Lord of the Fifth Kingdom of the Night.
He represents the Fifth Dimension. These freaks who are ruling this Third Dimension will have to cope with him. He has the head of Horus. The Eye of Horus is the fixed star Algol . The head of Medusa. Look up when this Algol is punishing someone.
Dr J, this "death" topic could have an entire cyclopedic set edition written on it and it is a topic all of us are aware of. I have some thoughts for you but no time to type them...I have to head for work but will come back later to read your major masterpieces of invective and deposit my own experential perspectives if you so wish on the topic. My words will envelop man to man and man to woman experiences with same. Oddly enough I have known men and women who feared not death and more than a few who welcomed it.
"I do not fear death" (your words) This topic you have addressed could well result in a stampede here if people are watching. From the "horse's mouth there is no better authority than those who faced it in their temporal existence. In my profession I meet many people yearly of every race, color and creed both men and women, and from all spectrums of my humble existence I am still working on.
It was Pascal who said, "We shall die alone." A friend of mine tells me that "Life is a bitch and then we die." That man would give anyone who needed it his own shirt.
Death. What is it? It is the cessation of all bodily functions...no hearing, no seeing, no thinking, no heartbeat, no inner organ functions. What happens at death? As it is written life occurs at conception and God gives that new life a spirit. Some may reject this. By plenary imposition, many decease unnaturally, and others by mishaps.
I have watched two people die quietly. Both told me they were not afraid of dying. My mother said this as did my father and both were lucid/functional up to the last three days and on the end of the third she took one final look at me and the women I had hired to care for her. Then her head slumped and she was gone. Father was in the hospital for a month and deceased there. I was raised by a Salvation Army mother and a Methodist father. That should tell you what I was taught, but somewhere along the line I became rough and rebellious. It was not the rough men I worked with. It was not anything other than my own attitude and hatred of what I saw happening all around me.
But I had close calls, and when witnesses tell me that I should have been killed I started to take it seriously. Traffic mishaps. Rear ended by a truck driver who said he did not see me and the motorcycle written off. That was just one incident but there were many more with more witnesses telling me I must be living right.
The one thing that really got to me was my great aunt who had a cardiac in church on a Sunday collapsing against the foyer entrance into my arms to be placed in a car and taken to hospital immediately. Nobody heard her whispering in my ear by with her head on my shoulder she kept saying in a gentle and even tone, all the way to the car, "Praise God." Three days later she deceased in hospital. Those words haunted me for decades but I came to believe that such a devout women in her late eighties surely had a closeness to God she had worshipped all her life to her end.
There came other close calls...could have drowned...could have been shot...could have fallen 356 feet from a tower I was working on erecting...more motorcycle close calls...and so much more. Scuba diving, skiing, hunting, working in a profession where there were more injuries and fatalities than in fire fighting or police work.
But this all came to finally create within me the belief there was one God, and the circumstances of continuing dangers only fortified my beliefs.
Scriptures state that at death our souls go to the Judgment seat of God and we from there have but one destiny, heaven or hell. Many religions have variations on this process but the scriptures never lie.
I listen to the recordings of the late and great Billy Graham true to his end and his take on dying approximates mine. He states death is like falling asleep. It happens and in a moment as I suggested we are at the Judgment seat to be condemned or to be accorded Heaven. I believe the scriptures on this. I stress that in a moment we will know we are dead in body but alive in the spirit/soul. We are comprised of mind, soul, (spirit) and body. There is but one way unto salvation. It is through Jesus Christ Son of the living God and He alone. That is what Billy Graham always preached and my forays into different religions found that there were many religions that were apostate according to the scriptures.
I really have experienced too much, heard too much, seen too much and felt too much to disbelieve what I am saying now. Reverting to the reality that we are comprised of a few different minerals and water had a sobbering effect on me. It made sense. Many books I read on death and dying mentioned the "silver cord" that many had claimed that attached to them held fast to their spirit and all knew if it broke they would be dead. Examples were given of people on the operating table who actually heard and repeated the words of the doctors, I have read books on dying and this one factor was front row center. The "silver cord" is referred to in Chapter 12 of Ecclesiastes. The "silver cord" is referred to in verses 6 and 7. Verse 7 states if the silver cord is broken then the dust shall return to the earth as it was AND THE SPIRIT WILL RETURN TO GOD WHO GAVE IT.
What I find interesting is that many who have researched this theme have been unbelievers but turn to believing as I did years ago. The whole chapter 12 advises that the fear (respect) of God must be the chief concern of man especially in his/her youth. Verse 13 states two things we should do. Fear God (respect Him) and KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS because He shall bring our life doings into judgment and also EVERY SECRET THING whether it is good or evil.
Now there will be mockers and unbelievers of all this but it is the Truth and if you do not take my word for it then you will be but the way I was years ago. I came to the Light after much time had passed.
So death is not avoidable with exceptions of Elijah and Enoch who were "Translated" to Heaven and identified in REVELATION as being killed in the end times but resurrected and ascending unto Heaven.
Death is the threshold we must all cross as it is written and all my years I have mulled this over and over. Eventually I embraced the Truth. None of us knows the day and hour when we shall cease from living. I have seen many die and I know that few will be chosen.
All my studies over years have brought me here and now I am also unafraid of dying. Dr. J. You have a fine and deep mind. Your elevated status is in the genius level.
I was in my late twenties and always wondered how I could prove to myself if God existed. I mulled this over and over but it happened. My son was an avid hunter as was I and on a Friday it was the day before duck hunting opened.
I had driven into a location through a deep woods on a rough road and finally crossed an open field to park at the edge of it just about a one thousand feet distance away from the pond where my uncles and father and grandfather had hunted all their lives.
I readied a meal in my camper and then watched the sun set. Darkness set in but it was one of those nights where the sky was filled with stars that seemed to crowd each the other. It was magnificent. I laid in the top bed and looked out the hatch window. I will never forget it. It was the moment I decided I had been created by Him who was the Epitome of all that was good, and as well being omniscient.
The darkness became eerie but the stars were the most beautiful sight I had ever seen in my life and to this day I will never forget it. It was then in the midst of this I tried to fully comprehend how these stars were light years away but clear to my naked eyes. I then attempted to comprehend "infinity" as a never ending entity. I focused on that alone and in attempting to get a deeper meaning of never endingness it happened. I can only describe it as my mind short ciruiting for that is what it did until I refocused and the same thing happened again. And again, and again. I kept trying and trying but to no avail. Only a shallow definable definition could I muster but not an in depth comprehensiveness that I failed over and over again. I had pushed my mind to its evident end and ability of comprehensiveness but could not fully exert my mind to understand. It was much as a kindergarten child trying to do university level algebra.
Next day my wife brought my son in after school for the night and for the next day 's hunt. I am fully convinced I will at death be able to fully comprehend what I could never before. But yet the servant is never above the master.
Death brings immortality to the soul. It is never ending. It is forever. Try to define "forever" in a format of complete mental vigor. And many will never know or believe that separation can and will occur. One destiny is eternal punishment, the other is eternal reward. One is regret, the other is happiness. Eternally.
Make your choice. It is your right. There is no standing on the fence. "You are either for me or against me." Thus the words of Jesus Christ. Immediately upon our death.
Awesome post. "I love this life and I do not fear death and this life I am experiencing now is for me to love and learn from. It is a mere chapter in my process of remembering myself as what I am - not merely who." I feel the same. I've experimented with deep meditation (decades), pure NN-DMT, and Ayahuasca a few times and those experiences strongly support your sentiment. One of the biggest lessons I got from those experiments is, "choose where you put your attention wisely!"
Intention as the “inner compass” - the direction of our attention and energy
-the true purpose beneath behaviour
Two people can do the same thing—say, help someone—but:
one acts from genuine care
the other acts for approval, image, or control
Outwardly identical. Internally very different. It can be painfully revealing when you pay attention to intention sometimes. There are things we don't like to admit to ourselves.
A Major YES..to this article. I was a bit upset to see how the massage table has been used in their ritual as

One of my favorite passages from spiritual literature is this:
"There never was a time when I was not, nor you, nor these rulers of men. And there never will be a time when we cease to be."
I’ve followed you since the earliest days of the “Scamdemic.” Your scientific expertise in so many disciplines has been an irreplaceable benefit. I fall short of understanding much of it.

Dude. Wow. Not sure it's true but thank you for the vote of confidence. :)
Its all good except for re-incarnation which is an idea not a fact. All energy and matter has a soul if you dig deep enough into the quantum world.
Oh.....I believe reincarnation is a fact. When my three year old son told me ( in GREAT detail) about his other life. He included details of where he lived that a 3 year old child could not have known much less comprehend. It started with him telling me " my other mom made better dinner than you Mom".

Just wanted to let you know that, Soul-Sister. ;-}
Can you name them by the way? Pretty sure I know who it is. There's one right now launching incessant attacks against me. Bad egg.
I'd rather not, but I stood up for you on her blog and she did not further reply.
Thanks Soul Brother!
People who say that about me are either retarded or operatives. :) How's that for an enlightened thought. lol
It may be a defense mechanism to brand broad swaths of reality as being corrupted, and to eliminate further detailed investigation thereof.
I see a fair amount of this going on, I'm sorry to say.
People are bandwidth limited and choose what to cut out.
We are all "Mossad".
Don't try to make me paranoid, Monsieur LePew!
My favorite subject, The Soul. I imagine your Soul Jesica has been around the block a few times 😉.

I don’t always understand the Science, but am grateful for your teachings. I’m curious. Have you read, The Journey of Souls by Dr. Newton?
Nope. But I will put it on my list. Thank you, by the way for the kind words. :) It means a lot.
If we're all immortal souls, why does the population (of humans) keep expanding? Are new souls being created? because I don't think there were 8 or 9 billion people in ancient history. Do trees and bugs have a soul? What about the tiniest lifeforms and viruses?
Thanks for the article Jessica, you really got me thinking and wondering.
Wonderful. :)
On conception YOU the radio will receive the signal .. The signal ( consciousness ) is shared by everything living including plants
How we interact with the signal is down to our “hardware” another vital component everyone seems to neglect is water or Hydrogen thats the antenna.
Thank you, Jessica. It is a joy to read your articulation of your journey toward truth. The idea that infinity means having no beginning and having no end strikes me as an inherent characteristic of God, and of God alone. That very thought expands my understanding of God because the reality of “time” was created at Creation when He not only set the dimensions of time and space, but the potential for relationship with his creation. For this relationship I am eternally grateful [eternity forward, but not rearward]. “Let us make mankind in our own image”. Quite challenging to grasp the depths of this statement.
He, what god or whose god are we speaking about here. Nice platitudes but lack a sense of reality. Check my commentaries above and see where it takes you.

Ms. Jessica. There are two power in the universe. Darkness and 'visible' light. Because Darkness is light too.

Death brings immortality to the soul. It is never ending. It is forever. Try to define "forever" in a format of complete mental vigor. And many will never know or believe that separation can and will occur. One destiny is eternal punishment, the other is eternal reward. One is regret, the other is happiness. Eternally.
Make your choice. It is your right. There is no standing on the fence. "You are either for me or against me." Thus the words of Jesus Christ. Immediately upon our death.
This is beautiful, Jessica. I did not know that we shared this deep understanding. Thank you.

Human Cloning at Harvard
One of the most disturbing finds in the Epstein Emails... cloning at Harvard.

Awesome post. "I love this life and I do not fear death and this life I am experiencing now is for me to love and learn from. It is a mere chapter in my process of remembering myself as what I am - not merely who." I feel the same. I've experimented with deep meditation (decades), pure NN-DMT, and Ayahuasca a few times and those experiences strongly support your sentiment. One of the biggest lessons I got from those experiments is, "choose where you put your attention wisely!"
and intention...
good one - so important
Intention as the “inner compass” - the direction of our attention and energy
-the true purpose beneath behaviour
Two people can do the same thing—say, help someone—but:
one acts from genuine care
the other acts for approval, image, or control
Outwardly identical. Internally very different. It can be painfully revealing when you pay attention to intention sometimes. There are things we don't like to admit to ourselves.
