LIGHT: THE LIFE OF DEATH

Erland Babcock

Some years ago I asked the following question of the inhabitants of the spiritual world: "Where are you? The answer received was 'We are everywhere and nowhere... at the same time.'

How can something be everywhere and nowhere at the same time? You are either here or not here not both at the same time. At least that is what I was thinking. For some months I pondered over that answer. One day, while in work, at not a very busy time, I was sort of looking out the window when it hit me like a ton of bricks. Of course, you idiot, where is the daylight? Is it not everywhere and nowhere at the same time? It is everywhere yet I can not divide it. Radio and TV waves..are they not everywhere yet they are nowhere. I can not pick them up in my hand and say this is a radio wave and this is a TV wave. What is the common denominator... Energy. More about this later.

Around that time (1980) my father passed over. My father, during his lifetime, loved to go deep sea fishing. That was his major enjoyment. He loved to go deep sea fishing. A week after his death I tried to make contact with him (at that time I was a fairly good psychic). I made contact with my spirit friend and asked to speak with my father. Response "He is not here.. he has gone fishing." That broke me up. I laughed out loud. That figured. After I regained my composure I asked the following question: "How does one go fishing in a spiritual world?" Response: "Your father is not really fishing..He thinks he is fishing and it is real to him." That statement is very profound. It brings to question..are we really here or do we just think we are here? What is reality? What are thoughts? How are they generated?

The second experience was different. I had a bad reaction to the anesthesia when I had a cataract operation. I found myself high in the clouds heading for that soft white glow when someone grabbed me by the feet and pulled me back. I imagine the next time it happens I will complete the journey.

The point that I am trying to make and a lot of you are aware of is .there is something very definite that leaves the body at so-called death. What it is and where it goes will be the subject of this paper.

The lowly caterpillar weaves a cocoon around itself and some time later emerges as a butterfly. After we shed our physical bodies we are guided to the other side. One of the first things that happens to us is that we rest for 5-7 days (earth time). This you might consider as the cocoon stage. We then awaken with our new body (the butterfly stage). The new body (of those who died beyond their prime) will appear as though they were in their prime. It is amazing what the mind can do when not restricted by the brain. On the other side of the vale you are a packet of energy. As such you might say you are a source of light. (another statement from my research papers: "We are all lights..some are brighter than others") However, the light on the other side of the vale appears to be different from our type of light. Their's is a soft loving type of light. Whereas our's is a hard physical light. Our light is electromagnetic in nature. What is theirs? I don't think we will ever have that knowledge until we ourselves cross over to experience it. It is my personal opinion as the result of many years of experience that their light can be expressed as an energy form that would be found between the particles of a atom. I am not speaking of the atomic forces.. If you were to blow up an atom to the size of a football field the nucleus would be the football down in the center of the field and the electrons would be running around the top of the grandstand. According to "science" the distance between the nucleus and the electrons is empty space. I personally believe there are forces in that space yet to be discovered. This is the area that would be connected with the other side. Some scientists believe that there is a mirror world out there where everything is the opposite of here. In that case I would ask the following question What is the opposite of the photon? Whether or not you believe in the bible makes no difference to me. The bible sheds quite a bit of "light" on the subject of light. There are many references to light. "I am the light", "Follow the light", etc. Another thing that has convinced me of the light of the other side are the following statements from past research:

1. We are all lights.

2. We have spin.

3. We turn to learn.

4. We are smaller than an atom.

5. You could not see us even with an electron microscope.

What is this light? Let us look at it from another direction. Let us look at the 4th dimension. Imagine you are holding a clear plastic cube in your hand. Floating in the center of this cube is a smaller clear plastic cube. This cube within a cube is called a tesserac or hypercube. This represents two objects occupying the same space at the same instant in time. This hypercube is a 3- dimensional shadow of a four dimensional object. We can not visualize the original 4-D object because we are limited to 3-D. Another way to try and visualize 4-D. Two needles side-by-side- a single thread, without splitting, enters both needles at the same instant in time. We can not visualize this because we live in 3-D.

Take a block in our 3-D world. It has height, width and depth. This is referenced to our world. Be it wooden or steel or some other material. You can hold it in your hand, feel it, move it and play with it. Take that same block and reference it to some other point outside our 3-D system and the block disappears from our reality. The block is still in existence however, we can no longer see it because of its reference. Our reference is based on the speed of light. If you were able to reach the speed of light you would disappear and there would be no time for you from our reference point. Let me see if I can clear that a little better. Two brothers. One is going on a rocket ship that will travel at the speed of light and be gone for two years. A year out and a year back. For the point of demonstration we will ignore acceleration, friction and the like. For the brother in the ship time passes normally. In a year of his time he reaches his destination, does his thing, turns around and heads back to earth. Arriving in 2 years of his time back on earth. He is now two years older. Is his brother there to greet him? Heck no. Many generations have passed on earth since the brother left on his trip. The closer you get to the speed of light the more time slows down.

When we shed our physical body it is much like taking that rocket trip. The speed of light in our reality is 186,282+ miles per second. If you were able to reach this speed you would not age because time would cease for you.

We do not die... we change life styles. Everything on the other side of the vale is based on a certain type of light. Light is the life of death. The light on the other side is referenced to the God head (some call the source) at infinity. The light is infinite. We can not fathom infinity. Therefore, we can not fathom the inner workings of the other side. The souls on the other side have vibratory frequencies. This frequency is not related to time. In our world all frequencies are related to time. We say the heart beats so many time per minute. The radio station is on a frequency of so many hertz per second. All relating to time. Now try and think of those frequencies without relating to time. Remember.. on the other side of the vale there is no time and no space (from our reference).

In order to communicate there must be a interface between their side and ours in order to change from no time - no space to some time - some space. I chose to work with light and video. I have developed a video system based on the fact that you can only photograph something as long as there is light on it. The basic system was first developed by Schriber(a German experimenter now deceased. see fig. 1). Schriber used a TV camera to look at a monitor. The monitor displayed what the camera was looking at. If you were to do this at home you would get a picture within a picture within a picture within a picture ad nauseum. A video tape was made during the process. He was able to get a picture of his dead daughter. Part of the process is to get the camera closer to the set and focus on the back of the picture tube. In other words you are going out of focus a very short bit.

With a standard lens on the camera, the camera should be about a foot away from the TV. (I use a monitor and use the video output of the camera) In this way there is no interference from regular programing. Record a few minutes and play back the tape using the pause or single frame advance on the remote to look at one frame at a time. This is where a VCR with a variable speed control comes in handy. Look for anything unusual. It takes practice. If using an enhancer (an inexpensive model is available from the Radio Shack for around $100.00). You will have to balance the controls. You are looking to slow down the clouds. If your system is balanced correctly you will see what appears to be clouds running rather rapidly around the screen. This is what is going to be recorded.

A number of non-believers claim they can see the same images in real clouds. That may be true for some people. I had an aunt who was very good at reading tea leaves and she made a very good bit of change doing it. She could tell your future by looking at the leaves after you had your tea. How much could be related to the leaves and how much could be related to psychic ability is anyone's guess. I would liken it to those psychics whom use a crystal ball to conjure images. How much is the crystal ball and- how much the mind? Having worked with video for a number of years (see my background) and doing all possible to eliminate any possible form of interference, I am convinced these video "clouds" can not be related to any weather system. By all common reasoning the system should only produce noise, yet here are pictures from a system that has no contact with the outside world with the exception of a one foot open space. From this open space we get recognizable pictures of people, places and things.

Somewhere along the line pictures are being generated within the system. I will go out on a limb and propose the following relating to the equipment I use and the results that I receive. I may not be correct but at least it is better than what I heard so far. Again, I base this on the fact that one can only photograph something as long as there is light on it. I must now explain the term "effective shutter speed" as related to photographic cameras. As we all know professional cameras have variable shutter speeds (some TV cameras have this feature also).

As part of a college 3 credit course in scientific photography I had to make a presentation of a project that I had done. This project involved photographing (and freezing the action) of the explosion of a electric light bulb. It involved the use of a sound activated strobe light' The sound of the explosion triggered the strobe light. The experiment was set up in a room that could be made dark. The camera (35nmm) was set on a tripod as was the strobe light. The room was darkened, the shutter of the camera was held open, the bulb was broken which fired the strobe then the shutter was closed and the film advanced for the next shot. What was the shutter speed of the camera? If you said the amount to time the shutter was open you are wrong. Remember, you can only photograph something when there is light on it. No light..no picture. The strobe light, in this case, operated at a millionth of a second so therefore the effective shutter speed is a millionth of a second.

Back to the TV system. Remember..at the speed of light - no time and no space. We have a foot of space between the TV camera and the monitor. (some space) The speed of light is 186,282 plus miles per second. At this rate how long does it take to go one foot? A very short time indeed. Now add in the delay of the electronics and you still end up with pico seconds. That very famous scientist Dr. Albert Einstein says when one gets very close to the speed of light strange things start to happen. Time slows down. Time, itself, has no physical atributes. Now if time is an arrow of infinite direction then there is no reason why there can not be infinite arrows and by slowing the time arrow we should be able to sample other arrows or time units of other dimensions not referenced to our world. Time in our world is based on the constant speed of light. Can you imagine a world where speed of light is different for each person? Is this why they say each is light but some are brighter than others?

Yes light is the answer. Light is the life of death.
