Prologue (The
text has been updated 2026-02-19 for greater clarity and with minor
corrections)
Occasionally, you see the following statement in books and magazines: “The
one thing we can’t know anything about is death; no one has ever come back
to tell the tale.” But is this really true? Isn’t history actually abundant
in stories about common and extraordinary individuals who, in a very
concrete manner died but, on a direct appeal from souls on the ‘other side,’
turned back to testify about a life after this? The latter option is, in my
opinion, much more common.
In my former workplace, there was a hospital chaplain that sometimes held
lectures for the personnel. On one occasion, the topic was about end-of-life
care. One phrase in particular stuck out: “Death is a state.” It was a
peculiar statement, and I didn’t understand it at the time. Many years later
the words came back to me, and now the thought of ‘rebirth’ was part of the
equation. This is when I made a decision: I would do a mind trip, a journey
in the intermediate state between death and rebirth. And thus it was!
Another reality
At the age of about 26, I became very ill. During a long and challenging
time, I could hardly eat anything at all, even regular water became an
issue. Needless to say, my life crumbled to pieces. I couldn’t bear
anything, my former interests became impossible, all friends disappeared and
I slipped into a shadow existence. Everything related to a life was lost,
with one exception; I didn’t die but lingered in the physical world like a
faded apparition of flesh and blood.
But during this nightmarish existence, something else happened. Since my
connection to the physical world was very limited, a doorway opened up to
the spiritual world. All this took place gradually and in the course of
several years. The insight that slowly came to me was not of an intellectual
kind, it was knowledge of the heart, a pure and intuitive wisdom. I saw man
in a cosmic perspective, I saw the entire divine plan of life and death. Was
it the hallucinations of a fading body? Perhaps, but I would still like to
describe at least a fragment of what i saw.:
The nature of
the soul
The soul is not material in nature. The soul is pure consciousness, the
imperishable entity. The soul is the one property no one can take away from
us. All shapes and forms is related to something created but this doesn’t
apply to the soul, it is beyond all creation and destruction. The soul has a
fundamental characteristic; contemplation. The soul is: "The one who
observes".
Although the soul is not material, you may still sense its appearance in the
physical world. The soul may be perceived as a small ‘void’ (a tiny black
hole), located at the center of man and at the center of all beings.
Incidentally, all beings are soulful creatures, whether they are material or
organic. The only thing that separates these beings is the nature or
"expression" of consciousness.
The core of the soul (the black hole) emanate concentric waves. These are
longitudinal waves traveling multiple times faster than light. The waves are
connected to the law of nature we call gravitation. The universe is
permeated by these waves in all directions. At a certain distance from the
core of the soul, the waves will fade out in the general noise of waves from
the cosmos. This distance defines, determines the limit of, what is called
the "aura of the soul".
The nature of
the body
The body is like the tool of the soul in external and internal existence.
The soul, in turn, exists beyond all creation. You can compare the body to a
video camera. The lens (eye) captures the light. The light is converted into
electrical signals (brain impulses) and the electrical signals are finally
stored in the camera's magnetic tape (memory). But the video camera itself
only receives the signals, it is the cameraman (soul) who observes the
progress.
Now, unfortunately, it gets complicated. It turns out that the body can
actually be divided into seven bodies of different material density. Each of
these is associated with a sensory function. As if this were not enough, we
must add seven bodies that have to do with the psyche, that is, the realm of
thought. The psychic world is concrete, it is perfectly real but is made up
of "thought forms", matter that obeys completely different laws of nature.
The sensory
body
The sensory body is a name for the seven physical bodies together. Since
these bodies are designated by many different names in esotericism, I have
decided to choose completely independent names.
|
The density body: |
The
heaviest of the human physical bodies which is made up of
electrons, protons and neutrons. The sense function has to do
with taste. |
|
The neurology
body: |
This
body consists of neutrinos (small particles that are considered
neutral but which in practice has a small charge). For example,
the electron is surrounded by two neutrinos that are in
different "energy shells". The mind function for this body is
related to tactility (touch). |
|
The visual body: |
The
third physical body is made up of light particles (photons) that
settle in rosette-shaped orbits around charged particles. The
photons always face the same side (pole) towards the charged
particle. The sense function that has to do with this body is
sight. |
|
The atomic body: |
The
first of man's spiritual bodies. The atomic body consists of
free ‘units of voids’ (nolites and nilites) which in vacuum form
thin shells around charged particles. These shells (etheric
matter) can exist independently of the original particle! The
sense function of the atomic body is smell. |
|
The plasma body: |
A
spiritual body consisting of electric and magnetic fields. The
magnetic fields are an effect of charged, spinning, particles in motion.
The sense function associated with this body is hearing. |
|
The tonal body: |
A
spiritual body consisting of "G-waves," standing gravitational
waves. Waves, of the same kind that radiate from the core of the
soul, interfere when they meet particles and settle into shell
formations (wave patterns) around matter. This energy is in
itself conscious. The sense function is balance/orientation. |
|
The memory body: |
The
seventh body is completely immaterial and formless but still
counts among the sensory-conditioned bodies. This body shines,
not with physical light but light of a different, elevated
nature. The function of the body is associated with man's
objective memory of his worldly life path. You must also
understand this body as connected with the heaviest physical
body, the density body. |
The sensory-soul and the thought-soul
To obtain a full understanding of the world of thought, we must first go
deeper into the realm of the soul. You can say that the soul sends out waves
(contemplation) from its center, its core. Then the waves reflected from the
body's sense centers (sensation) are recorded. It now turns out to be two
different but cooperating souls that exist in parallel, they overlap. The
sensory-soul sends out energy, the thought-soul receives. Both soul entities
are conscious but one soul is verbal and logical, the other is wordless and
intuitive in nature.
The thought-soul is the soul that records the information reflected from the
body's various sense centers. Unlike the sensory-soul, the thought-soul is
deeply involved in an assessment of how different impressions are
experienced, whether something is good or bad, pleasant or unpleasant. The
sensory-soul, on the other hand, is the bearer of our identity, what we
perceive as the "self". The sensory-soul is constantly filled with an inner
dialogue: "Should I do this or that". The thought-soul does not speak, but
its measure seems to be: "This is how we usually do it" (routine-based). The
thought-soul is identical with what is called our conscience.
The thought-body
The thought-body is the collective name for the seven psychic bodies.
Psychic bodies consist of thought matter. This matter becomes visible when
the sensory-soul emits waves in the ‘other direction’ (inwards) than
normally occurs in the waking state. What happens is that the radiance of
the sensory-soul withdraws (such as when falling asleep, for example). The
sensory-soul then no longer has access to signals from the body's
soul-centers and consciousness ceases temporarily.
The soul radiance is activated again, but this time it is the psychic bodies
of the thought-soul that are in focus. These are experienced as one body
(the body we have in the dream world) just as we experience our physical
body as one and undivided. In the world of thought, the physical sense
functions of the bodies are matched by various psychic functions. Here, too,
I have chosen to use established esoteric terms as little as possible.
|
The craving body: |
This
psychic body carries all our ideas about food and drink. The
desire body includes all our knowledge of what is worthy or
unworthy to consume. The negative thought patterns gathered here
deal with specific bad or harmful habits in the food sector, for
example the two extremes of gluttony and self-starvation. |
|
The passion body: |
In
the passion body we find all our thoughts and experiences in the
area of sexuality. Here are our inclinations, desires and
fantasies, usually concerning the opposite sex. Examples of
negative thought patterns here could be the use of sexuality as
a drug, but it could just as well be about repressed sexual
needs. |
|
The rationality
body: |
This sublime mind body carries the experiences we have gathered
in the intellectual realm. Here is everything we know in
science, language and mathematics. Here we learn to distinguish
between good and bad, usefulness and uselessness. The negative
thought patterns usually revolve around the concepts of egoism,
greed and power perfection. The knowledge here is of an
elementary nature.. |
|
The cultural body: |
In
this body, all our knowledge and experiences that have to do
with art and culture are collected. This is where our
imagination and our creative power can be found. Much is about
learning to control the thought matter in order to translate
one's inner visions into concrete forms of expression. The
wisdom of the cultural body also supports various methods of
developing and utilizing nature's resources. |
|
The emotional
body: |
The emotional body is the psychic body that includes our entire
emotional life. This is a hotbed of conflicting emotions such as
hope and despair, hate and love, joy and sadness. Finding a
balance between extremes is important for optimal well-being and
good function. |
|
The emphatic body: |
This
sublime body contains our ability to live in and to practice
unconditional love. Here we find all our ability to help and
support our fellow humans and all other beings. The body
collects the knowledge we have about the inherent dynamics of
nature. The law of cause and effect. |
|
The visionary body: |
The
seventh body is completely immaterial but still belongs to the
thought-controlled bodies. This body is formless but can assume
a form at the command of the will. Here are all the memories we
have stored up regarding the world of thought (more specifically
the subjective and introspective life path). The visionary body
should be seen as connected to the heaviest psychic body. This
is because a feedback takes place here that deals with planning
and dreams for future periods of life. |
Where is the thought world?
The thought world is completely subjective; it does not have an actual
location (in time and space. There are, however, connections between the
thought bodies and their counterparts in the sensory body. The first three
thought bodies relate to the heavier sensory bodies. Likewise, thought body
4-6 relates to the lighter sensory bodies. To sum up; thought bodies are
real but solely occupy the psychic space, or the 'dream world.'.
The thought world becomes tangible the moment the thought-soul perceives its
own psychic bodies. But there is also another possibility and that is that
the thought-soul perceives the psychic bodies of other beings. We can call
these two options our private thought world (dream world) and the collective
thought world. For us, the latter is about the planet Earth and its thought
world.
The natural laws
of the thought world
The thought world is often a copy of the sensory world, but in this psychic
realm there are completely different laws of nature than those we are used
to. We experience them in our dreams but when we wake up we forget most of
the sequence of events. We also have a tendency to dismiss dreams as
nonsense because we are constantly comparing them to the rational physical
world.
By looking more systematically at the thought world and how it works, you
can discern a number of conditions that are very clearly different from our
experiences in the sensory world. Let us first examine the collective
thought world (the psychic sphere of the Earth), we can then compare
different individuals and see how they interact.
|
Coordination: |
In
the collective thought world, no objective sequence of events
exists. Instead, the scene is characterized by many subjective
(parallel) processes. These are coordinated and do not
counteract each other. |
|
Centering: |
The individual in the collective thought world is not just a
part of an event, but experiences himself as the center of the
entire event. |
|
Time variability: |
The experience of time is completely subjective, there is no
permanent matter on which to base an objective time calculation.
However, there is a synchronization in the relationship between
the thought world and the sensory world. A dreaming person often
finds himself getting on a bus, boat or perhaps a plane at the
exact moment it is time to wake up. |
|
Thought power: |
The
matter of the collective thought world takes shape according to
the individual's inner images. Objects are manifested out of
nothingness through thought power. A person who is in this
sphere may have an inner dialogue with himself: "Hmm, what if it
rains." The next moment, of course, the rain pours down. |
|
Location change: |
A
person can instantly change their place of residence. This
happens by the person changing their "focusing" (point of view).
The person may say to himself: "I wish I was at Aunt Martha's".
He doesn't have time to think the thought through until he sees
the gate to her house. |
|
Communication: |
An
actual "ether-borne communication" (speech) does not take place
in the thought world. The exchange of information comes about
through "verbal telepathy". People perceive other people's
messages as spoken sentences. |
|
Compatibility: |
In
our familiar physical world (especially when it comes to
relationships) it is an undeniable fact that opposites attract.
In the collective thought world, it is the other way around;
like attracts like. This can concretely result in entire
villages or cities where all people are on a similar cultural
and intellectual level. |
In
the vicinity of death
Outside the body
Some people experience what is called sleep paralysis, they wake up during
the night completely stiff in the body and cannot move. This state, which
can be terrifying, is a preliminary stage in the experience of being outside
one's physical body. My experience of the phenomenon (it has happened on
several occasions) is that it is completely harmless. The strong fear you
may still feel (when the soul is about to leave the body) is probably a
bodily protection mechanism. It is said that shamans can control this state
completely unhindered and travel in the physical or psychic world to obtain
information or cure a particular ailment.
A similar phenomenon is waking up (becoming fully aware) even though you are
dreaming. On these occasions, one may experience that one possesses
different psychic bodies with different characteristics. One body
corresponds to the physical body, another one flies unimpeded among known
and unknown dreamscapes. If anybody wants to visit the collective thought
world, one must first become conscious in the dream. Often one is inside a
house (a symbolic image of one's own body). You then resolutely throw
yourself through a window in the house*, or seek out a balcony on the upper
floor. The passage through the window may offer some resistance, but if you
succeed, you are "out".
* By all means, do not try this if you have difficulty distinguishing the
reality of the dream from waking reality!
The dark tunnel
Having an out-of-body experience (OBE) does not necessarily mean that you
are going to die, but it is the same phenomenon that occurs in both cases.
Many people describe how they travel through a dark tunnel when leaving the
body. You can sometimes get a picture of the entrance to the tunnel which
appears as a roaring vortex formation. Sometimes booming or ringing sounds
are heard and some people also hear voices during this phase.
The tunnel formation itself has to do with the awareness of the soul. In
humans, the soul's "attachment point" is in the head (the pineal gland), you
can say that the soul's core "lands" there. When the radiation (soul aura)
is activated, however, the soul core moves. This is because the soul aura
swells and conforms to the physical body. In doing so, the soul core will
move down towards the center of the body (solar plexus) and take its
residence there.
Now we can understand the tunnel experience. During an OBE, the soul aura
begins to withdraw and shrink. The soul core (the small black hole) then
moves up towards the attachment point in the head. During the short time
that the soul aura withdraws, the soul receives no information from either
its physical or psychic bodies. The soul can then see "outside itself" and
the result is a sometimes lightning-fast "tunnel journey" from the solar
plexus to the exit point in the head.
