Welcome to the last episode of Season 4! What is an extraordinary experience? In their book, “Convergence: The Interconnection of Extraordinary Experiences,” our guests Barbara Mango, Phd. and Lynn Miller explain: “Extraordinary Experiences are those which occur beyond our five senses, time, and space. Such occurrences include Near-death Experiences, Out-of-Body Experiences, Past-life Memories, Paranormal Encounters, Contact with Non-Human Intelligences, Telepathy, Pre-cognition, etc. Regardless of the type of extraordinary experience, all are utterly transformational. It is only when we open our minds and hearts to embrace experiences which lay beyond our three-dimensional world, that we may begin to explore the very nature of consciousness.”

In this episode, we discuss:

How Barbara & Lynn met by working together in astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell’s research group.

The understanding that consciousness is non-local, which is the basis for all these different types of extraordinary experiences.

Why it was important for them to include the science behind these experiences and provide a balanced approach for experiencer and skeptic.

Which personality types are more prone to having extraordinary experiences?

What are some of the challenges and benefits of how these experiences change a person?

Barbara’s first experience with a non-physical being at 2 years old.

How, as a child, Barbara’s spontaneous remembrance of a past life immediately healed her in this life.

Lynn shares about her spontaneous out-of-body experiences and how she learned controlled OBEs.

Some techniques for OBE.

How the materialist assumption in science has limited the research on consciousness.

Telepathy and quantum entanglement.

The strong evidence for non-local consciousness based on Near Death experiences of the congenitally blind.

Barbara and Lynn’s debut book, “Convergence: The Interconnection of Extraordinary Experiences” is now available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble websites. The authors take readers on extraordinary, life-altering voyages beyond time and space. One that is consistently described by experiencers as “realer than real,” powerfully loving, and forever life-altering. Near-death, out-of-body experiences, contact with non-human intelligent beings, and past-life recall are examples of such journeys. Barbara and Lynn explore each modality from their personal encounters, backed by cutting-edge science. Learn more by visiting their website https://www.extraordinaryexperiences.org/. You can also hear Barbara speak at the upcoming IANS conference in September 2021.
