About the Author

Author’s Note

This book has been written for those looking for answers related to the supernatural, the unseen and unproven. I myself have been on the lookout since early on in life , and with the help of Spirit I eventually came to one realization after the other . Finally, I have come to the point in my life where I can accept my own experiences and spiritual insights as the answer to many of the questions I had before. And I now dare say that no one who has not had that same experience can take my experience away from me. I also feel that my spiritual experiences have been true gifts given to me by Spirit for which I’m very grateful.

The following chapters will take you on a journey of many discoveries through not only what exists around us but particularly within us. I’ll share with you situations and experiences far removed from what we have been made to believe is possible — situations that I can only describe as an alternative reality, all founded on the concept that everything is energy in a constant flow of communication always aiming for a oneness.

There is so much more about us and intuitively we know that this is so. This is the reason why we keep on looking for Something More, not sure of what we are looking for. Many confuse it with materialistic values and personal power over others, which in the end only makes the search even more intense and misleading.

We are not only the physical beings we have been programmed to be but also spiritual beings. Once you get a grip on who you really are, you open your mind further, your energy frequency increases and so does your awareness. With a higher consciousness you see more, hear more, understand more and your world becomes a more interesting world, far from the world of limitation, fear and greed we have been taught to accept.

Unfortunately when we eventually meet the unknown, we doubt our senses and look the other way. The following chapters will introduce you to the many unseen and amazing sides of our reality. I lived through them, one after the other, and they completely changed my life.

Enjoy the following pages and find out about the extended reality that belongs to all of us. It may change your life as well.

Prologue

Everything happened so fast when I fell off the ship that I never understood what had hit me. But suddenly I found myself in the waves of the big ocean and was struggling to stay above water. I was gasping for air, trying to figure out what was up and what was down when the fast-moving waves got me in their grip. The salty water kept on getting into my nose and mouth, and I had trouble breathing. I was quickly getting more and more tired, and my body felt so heavy. If only I could rest just for a moment.

Suddenly I knew I couldn’t make it any longer. My body felt so heavy and it was so hard to breathe. I needed air, much more air. As I felt my strength disappearing, I closed my eyes and I let myself go. Nothing mattered any more. It was of no use, I couldn’t fight the big waves any longer…

At that moment the water calmed down around me and turned completely flat as a big ball of light descended through the sky right in front of me. Moments later I seemed to be completely absorbed into the light and when I looked up, there were two tall angels, one on each side of me. They wore ankle-length white robes and their skin seemed so clear, like see-through white porcelain.

The angels lifted me up and wrapped me in what seemed like a golden coat, and I immediately felt so warm and confident, trusting that everything was going to be all right. They told me they were going to take me to a special place where I would feel safe and I was not to worry. I immediately felt secure and at peace within myself. Without hesitation, I closed my eyes again and relaxed completely, knowing all would be well.

I don’t remember how I got there, but all of a sudden we were in a meadow filled with big, blue flowers, and I heard music coming out from the trees surrounding the meadow. Everything I saw was so shiny and bright, as if it was made of Light.

As soon as I stepped out on the green grass in the meadow, little white and blue birds flew out from the trees around me. The birds sat down on my arms and shoulders and they started to sing. I felt they sang only for me.

I asked the angels if I was in heaven. The angels answered that I was in the Land of In-Between.

I never heard them speak to me in words — nor did I ever hear myself speak to them with words — but I knew we were speaking with each other. Everything was so warm and bright, with a brilliant light shining through all that appeared around us.

As I walked with the angels a few steps farther, they told me I had been given a choice either to come with them and continue together toward the Big Light or go back to the same world I had just left behind.

It felt so good being with the angels. I saw no reason why I shouldn’t go along with them towards the Big Light, and I continued walking with one angel on each side of me.

As we proceeded towards the Light, a sharp pain suddenly went through my heart. And all at once, the world I had created for myself with all my dreams and ideas appeared before me, and I remembered how I deep down enjoyed my life.

As I saw the faces of those I loved pass by in my thoughts, one more sharp pain went through my heart. I was surprised because I didn’t think it would be possible to feel that kind of pain when together with angels. But the angels told me the heart is the only part of our body where feelings may still remain when we are in the Land of In-Between, because the heart is the place where we make our choices, our true choices.

I continued to walk with the angels towards what seemed to be a sunrise, but then my heart started to ache so hard again, making it impossible to continue. I stopped, unable to take one more step, and the angels also stopped walking.

Suddenly I had made a choice: I didn’t want to go with them any farther. In that instant, I felt an urge to do much more with my life and knew there was still a way I could create a new future for myself in a world I still loved so much.

I felt as though a sparkle of Light had lit up my heart telling me what to do. I was more than sure I wanted my life back, and I experienced a heartfelt wish flowing through me: I was ready to start all over again. This time I would do it differently.

The angels said nothing. I knew they were observing me as they waited for my final decision, and I understood that they had come to accompany me for the purpose of serving my wishes. I felt very strongly that they had wanted me to make my own choice all along.

Almost immediately, we were back at the meadow with all the music and the little birds in the trees. The birds were still singing, but they didn’t fly down to greet me as they did before. The angels removed my golden coat and I remember how I immediately became aware of my body again. I felt a slight chill and the comfortable warmth I had so much enjoyed before was now gone. When I turned around to say goodbye to the angels, I noticed everything I had seen around me before — the angels, the birds and the beautiful meadow — were suddenly gone. The whole picture of the Land of In-Between had in an instant completely disappeared.

…and I was slowly waking up.

In my newly awakened state I still experienced everything around me in a white foggy shimmer, but it quickly faded away. I took a deep breath, and it all came back to me:

I had had dental surgery to remove a troubling impacted wisdom tooth, and as I was gradually waking up from my anesthesia in the recovery room, I felt as if I had been away on a long, long journey visiting another world. It might not have been too far-fetched. As I was told later in the day, the anesthesia had taken a stronger hold on me than expected, and there had been some concern, but in the end all was well.

Only a few weeks earlier, my first husband had been killed in a car accident, and I was a young and unprepared widow. From one moment to the next, I had landed in a world where everything had fallen apart for me, and I was worried and uncertain how to deal with my life. Because of the death of my husband, I was convinced that I had failed on my life’s path and that there was nothing more I could do with my life.

In many ways, I felt as if I had been tossed out from the security of a big ship into a stormy ocean where big threatening waves were rolling in over me, overwhelming me, almost choking me to death.

Was the story with the angels really a dream?

Or was it a reality in a different dimension of my inner self?

Officially, I have preferred to call my adventure with the angels a dream. But deep down inside, I knew I had been taken on a journey to a hidden reality residing within the many dimensions of my inner self.

Looking back at the dream with all the knowledge that I have today, I believe I had experienced a different reality within the deepest part of myself, my truest Self, that I have come to see as a shiny core of Light somewhere within me.

With time, my relationship with this inner Light has deepened and has made me look at my world a different way, thus creating a deeper and more extensive reality for me. I know that each one of us has a chance to experience this reality, if only we would give it a try.

Through the dream I had awakened a strong bond with a higher form of understanding for something undefined, which I can only call Something More, and this Something More was so much bigger and more far-reaching than my human reasoning.

I believe we all have the means to find the help we are looking for if we turn within before rushing out into the world, away from ourselves, to look for our good fortune.

And when the urge is strong enough to make our physical dreams come true, this hidden reality will resurface before our physical eyes and create a new truth and real world for us.

Now, many years later, I even believe the dimension of the White Light not only lives within all of us, but we are also surrounded by it. It is the energy of what is around us and we are all part of that same magnitude of energy. We are part of It and It is part of us through eternity — an eternity of which, again, we already are a part.

For most who hear the story, my impressions from my journey to the Land of In-Between will represent an unproven reality. But for me, it is showing me a magnificent part of our multi-dimensional self and how fascinating life can be when we recognize the unlimited greatness within us.

The effect of my dream connected me to something bigger and better, well beyond the faculty of my human understanding, showing me that we are so much greater than just a physical body. And what we call our soul, which we cannot quite define because of the limitation of our human words, is part of a reality well beyond our intellectual comprehension.

But most of all I was given a message of Love. Unconditional Love.

A message that told me that I was to make my choices — without judgment and prejudice — according to the feelings in my heart.

Naturally, I was left with many questions about reality. What is reality and where does it begin and where does it end? Reality is supposed to be what exists around us, what we can see, hear, touch and feel, the existing state of things. But what about experience? What if my experience is different from his or her experience and I see my experience as real — and of course it is. Does someone else have the right to say that this real part of myself is not valid because he or she has not had my experience?

Who decides what is reality? And our reality in particular.

I?

You?

Someone else?

And why someone else?

My reality is based on my own experience stretching through a whole lifetime. No matter what knowledge I had and was taught during my earlier days, my own experience through the years has become the foundation on how I accept and make sense of life around me — and this is what I am going to share with you on the pages that follow.

The Light in Action

"Within me there is a place

That knows all and sees all.

This is my inner Light,

The God Force shining within me,

This is my highest potential —

and my best friend."

It was early Friday morning at the height of rush hour on Interstate 95, and I was driving north from Miami toward Palm Beach. North of Miami, I-95 is a wide stretch of traffic cutting through south Florida like a massive band of energy, six lanes going south and six lanes going north.

I was on my way to Palm Beach, where from time to time I lecture and give private consultations.

The traffic was heavier than usual, but of course it would be on a Friday morning. I had to pay full attention not only to my own driving but also to keep an eye on all the drivers around me.

Traffic was fast moving, yet almost bumper-to-bumper. Not a good situation at high speed, but this was the regular pattern on this part of the Interstate, a stretch of road that is considered one of the most dangerous in the whole western world. As several large trucks were passing by me at high speed, I was convinced it would be too hard to move into the far left lane for a while, so I calmly placed myself in the second lane between a truck and a sports utility vehicle, waiting for the next opportunity to proceed to the other lanes.

I felt good about my day, driving along contentedly, listening to contemporary Latin music from my favorite Miami station and humming along with the songs.

I don’t know what triggered it, probably a news flash on the radio, as usual bringing up the latest scandals and wrongdoings. As one thought led to another, suddenly I was reminded of a court case I had heard about a few days earlier: An older woman had wrongfully taken over a property from a much younger woman, a single mother who was the rightful owner. But, the older woman had hired a legal team to represent her from a law firm that earlier in the year had donated a large sum of money to the re-election campaign for the presiding judge. Naturally, as I saw it, the judge therefore sided with the lawyers who had supported him in the election and made a judgment against the younger woman, who lost her property.

It shouldn’t be that way — the younger woman was the rightful owner of the property. It seemed obvious that a lawsuit shouldn’t even have happened. The twist of the case was so unfair and so against any concept of spiritual honor that a wave of genuine anger went through my body. It was not my problem, but I have never handled unfair actions well, and an explosion of emotions began to rush through my mind, take over my thoughts and flow through my whole body. I still remember my anger, not only at the judge, the lawyers and the older woman who had made her frivolous claims in the first place, but I was genuinely angry at the whole legal system that made this possible.

And all the energy I usually bring into action as love to help and heal others changed dramatically and came out into the open as a very negative and destructive energy. I couldn’t let go. I had trouble accepting that yet again the defenseless and innocent should be so helpless in this system of power and favors, and that we have to accept that this happens time after time. I almost trembled as I was holding the steering wheel, and I didn’t react soon enough to the sudden pling, a sound I had never heard before while driving. I still remember that pling coming from somewhere within the dashboard in front of me…

I was so absorbed in paying attention to the heavy traffic all around me, but moments later I realized that my dashboard was all lit up with red lights. I had never seen anything like that happen before while driving, so I didn’t understand that something was terribly, terribly wrong with the car. A few more seconds went by and the car continued to roll forward at the same high speed as before. Even a little too fast for the traffic closing in on me, so I tried to slow down and stepped on the brake. But nothing happened. This couldn’t be possible, so I tried yet one more time. Again, nothing happened. I couldn’t even push the brake pedal down. In an instant, I understood that the brakes were locked, not working, completely out of commission… A chill came over me. I was in the middle of heavy traffic on an overloaded expressway, and I couldn’t slow down the car I was driving.

I panicked. What had happened? What was wrong? What could I do?

Panic stricken, I pushed all buttons I could think of. And I got even more nervous when I realized that the steering wheel did not work either. The steering wheel was locked, too. I could not open the windows to signal to others that I had a problem, nor did the blinkers or anything else work. The red lights on the dashboard were only warning lights telling me that, although the system was connected, it was not working. And what good did they do me, when there was nothing I could do to make anything work?

Nothing responded to my actions. All kinds of thoughts were running through my mind… Had the motor disconnected itself? But the start key wouldn’t turn — it was stuck like everything else in the car. I tried both the automatic and manual mode to switch gears, back to park, to neutral, to anything. Unfortunately, the gear box was also locked and the car remained firmly stuck in gear.

The car lost a little speed, causing traffic to slow down behind me, already creating an unsafe condition.

Images of my whole life were flashing by, as thoughts were racing through my mind now even faster. Panic is an incredible mechanism to speed up our senses. Everything I had gone through in my life seemed to rapidly pass through my mind. I was lost and helpless, looking for something to hang on to, but I was desperately on my own.

Traffic was getting denser around me, more trucks with even less space between vehicles — an unsafe bumper-to-bumper situation with no room for another car in between anywhere.

The road had been fairly straight so far, but it now began to curve toward the right. I had to stay in the lane to follow traffic. But how? Was there anything I could do?

I had to face the horrible truth: I was in a runaway car in the middle of a six-lane expressway during the most intense rush hour traffic of the week on one of the worst roads in the world. The car I was driving was a leased, brand new car of a solid and respectable make and made to last for a long time. Nothing had gone wrong before, and nothing was supposed to go wrong. I realized the whole computer system was knocked out, and everything had come to a standstill inside the car, although the wheels were still spinning forward at high speed.

The car started cutting into the lane to my left. I couldn’t help it, it was just happening. There was no way all the cars would be able to stop at a second’s notice.

At that moment I just knew I was going to cause a horrendous traffic accident. I was going to die and many others were going to be hurt, maybe killed…. All traffic was going to come to a standstill for hours to come. I was to be blamed for reckless driving, and no one would know what really happened. My family would be told I had been the cause of a gruesome accident, and they would have to live with that regret until the end of their days. Even at this moment of despair, this was unacceptable for me.

No, no, no! I yelled out.
