Opening to Other Worlds, Other Lives

Presentation by  Katya Walter, PhD

Katya Walter, PhD, will talk about past life regression, the coming age of psychic expansion, accessing universal mind to astral travel in time as well as space beings Katya has encountered in these travels, and learning to access secrets of nature through communication with universal mind. This is an exploratory talk ranging into the last frontier, consciousness itself.

Multidimensional Realities;

Reports and observations from Out-of-Body explorations

with Jurgen Ziewe (live via Skype from England)

Jurgen will provide an account of his observations during his 40 years of out-of-body explorations. He sees these other dimensions of existence as an extension to our natural world.

Jurgen will discuss the challenges faced by OBE explorers when subjective consciousness

interferes with consensus realities of the higher dimensions. He’ll also discuss the mindset required to observe and carefully record “objective” data from those environments.

Leading a highly demanding professional life, Jurgen Ziewe compensated by practicing intensive meditation to gain balance and spiritual inspiration.  He soon discovered there was more to life when he was catapulted out of his body into a parallel universe.  For nearly forty years he kept a secret diary detailing his excursions, which reveal a fascinating alternate reality that awaits us once we leave our mortal bodies.  Jurgen discovered a multidimensional universe into which he could step while maintaining full waking consciousness.  He returned each time with breath-taking accounts of a world which forms not only the natural extension but the foundation of our physical universe.  In his 2008 book, Multidimensional Man, Jurgen chronicles his observations and insights from Out-of-Body experiences into higher dimensional realities, and gives vivid and compelling accounts of meeting his deceased relatives, of interviewing the ‘dead’, and even of accompanying himself in a previous life.  He describes with the zest of a travel journalist some of the mind-bending places he has visited, and recalls the excitement of unearthing the magical powers found there.

These powerful experiences shifted the emphasis of his work away from abstract art, and in the nineties with the help of sophisticated computer programs, Jurgen attempted to recreate the scenes he had encountered during his out-of-body journeys.  Soon his work was noticed by poster publishers who established him as a fantasy artist subsequently selling over two million posters world-wide.  Book publisher Collins & Brown became aware of his work and published a folio biography of the artist, New Territories – The Computer Visions of Jurgen Ziewe, (1997, Suckling, N).  His work has since been featured widely on the covers of best-selling science fiction novels.  Jurgen has also carved out a career as a highly sought-after illustrator and continues to be employed by some of the world’s largest advertising agencies, multinational companies and book publishers.

Jurgen’s website, www.multidimensionalman.com, has steadily grown in content as well as popularity._____________________________________________________________________ Meeting Details:

This meeting will be an experiment for INACS in using Skype video for a 2-way interactive presentation from a remote location.

If successful, this format will open up a large selection of potential worldwide INACS’ speakers to us.

The author will briefly present his work, and conduct most of the event in a Q & A format.

Please view the author’s website (www.multidimensionalman.com) in advance; it includes several videos and numerous writings that will allow you to get familiar with his work, and help you formulate questions for the presentation.

Multidimensional Man

An Authentic Eyewitness Account of the World That Awaits Us After death

by Jurgen Ziewe

This intelligent account takes out-of-body experiences and lucid dreaming to another level while remaining divorced from dogma and the confines of belief systems. This graphic and in-depth record of the afterlife explored through astral travel and lucid dreams invites you to investigate new realms of experience beyond the physical. With each carefully documented journey out of the body, the reader is increasingly assured that death is a journey towards expanded consciousness. Documented in personal journals, this informative first-person account fills gaps in our understanding of ultimate reality and the higher dimensions and serves as a source of inspiration and encouragement. For a book that explores the realms of life after death, Multidimensional Man is a very down-to-earth exploration that will inspire anyone from atheists and skeptics to those with an interest in psychology, metaphysics and the sublime to explore the realms accessible through altered states of awareness.

It’s a little tricky to find the first time, so here are the directions:

If you’re heading northwest on Research/183 from I-35, Mopac or 360, exit 183 at the Oak Knoll exit, pass through the light at Oak Knoll, and stay on the access road heading north.  The next side street off the 183 access road will be Technology Blvd.; do not turn on Technology.  Immediately after you pass Technology, there will be a driveway on your right (the only one in that area)–Exit into that driveway.  There will be a sign overhead for “Forest Plaza.”  After you pull in, you’ll have no choice but to go to the left into Forest Plaza.  Our building is the back left building within the complex–Suite 302.   If you’re heading south on Research/183, you also exit at Oak Knoll, but take the u-turn just before you get to Oak Knoll, get over the right on the northbound access road, and prepare to make the right immediately after Technology Blvd. as in the directions above.

Exploring UFOs and Consciousness with SMiles Lewis

Austin, Texas – Tuesday, October 25th, 7-9pm CST

What can we learn about UFOs from studying such diverse arenas of consciousness exploration as shamanism and drugs like DMT? What about Carl Jung’s collective unconscious and parapsychology? What about near death and out of body experiences? What have human agencies (governmental, corporate, aboriginal and esoteric) discovered about the UFO phenomenon’s effects on consciousness? Has humanity interacted with Alien Others throughout history? Could we be communicating with CryptoTerrestrials or a Gaian Mind? What do we really know about these diverse and exceptional experiences and those who’ve had them? Come discover the fantastic facts about UFOs, Altered States of Consciousness, and Mind-at-Large!

SMiles Lewis has had a lifelong interest in all things anomalous. An early age proclivity at recalling his nightly dreams as well as several personal experiences with ESP, precognition and dream switching bolstered his interest in the paranormal. Shortly after high-school he joined the local MUFON chapter in Austin, Texas. He would later become a MUFON State Section Director for that group as well as leader of the local UFO Experiencer Support and Study Group. A lover of books, SMiles collected over 1000 titles before founding the non-profit Anomaly Archives that serves as the lending library of the Scientific Anomaly Institute (501c3). For over twenty years he has worked with digital audio, video and other bleeding edge internet technologies. He has published his own print journal (E.L.F. Infested Spaces), edited a local paranormal newspaper (Austin Para Times), maintained a large network of websites (ELFIS.net), organized a national UFO conference (NUFOC-38), spoken to anthropologists about UFOs and parapsychology (Encounters with the Fantastic), hosted (and been a guest on) both terrestrial and webradio talk shows and has been podcasting since before the phrase existed. All these efforts and more have led radio talk show host Robert Larson to describe Miles as a “Gonzo Alt-Media Proprietor and Informationalist.” He is also the LOWFI-Texas State Bureau Chief of The League of Western Fortean Intermediatists.

SMiles’ current projects include co-hosting PsiOp-Radio with Mack White as part of the many unique shows airing daily on his ANOMALY RADIO Network.

He is active with several local non-profits which includes his service on the board of directors for the Institute for Neuroscience And Consciousness Studies (INACS) and the Scientific Anomaly Institute‘s lending library, the Anomaly Archives.

His writings can be found within the Archives of his print journal ELFIS and ANOMALY Magazine.

In his day job with the Texas State Library and Archives Commission‘s Talking Book Program he manages a Volunteer Recording Studio and audio duplication department and has been a consultant on two digital audio development documents for the Library of Congress‘ National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped.

A quantum-physics experiment to see if “Human Intention” can reverse the spin of a single electron

A Presentation by Ronald Bryan, Ph.D.

In considering the wave function of an electron, I realized in 2000 that this entity resembles human consciousness in several ways, so I hypothesized that the wave function is conscious (and a human consciousness is a wave function).  Now if an electron’s wave function is indeed conscious, then it might respond to a command from a human consciousness, perhaps as one human can communicate with another human through mental telepathy.  With the help of atomic experimentalists, I have conceived of an experiment to look for such an effect, in particular, can human intention reverse the spin of a single electron.  I describe the experiment and some applications.

The original paper in this research is entitled “Consciousness and quantum-mechanical wave functions” and can be downloaded from my website http://faculty.physics.tamu.edu/bryan

Many other papers on the subject also appear there.

Ronald Bryan, Ph. D., recently retired from the Physics Department of Texas A&M University but continues of carry out research there.  He has made contributions in the fields of nuclear and particle physics, and recently turned his attention to atomic physics.  He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society.

How You Can Achieve Peak Brain Performance

Presentation By:

Laurie Romig, Optimal Performance Brain Coach

Dr. Dennis Romig, Psychologist

 
 
Presentation Objectives

The last ten years have seen an explosion of new research on how our brains achieve peak and optimal performance.  A tool for directly promoting these levels of performance is brain wave biofeedback.  At this INACS presentation you will:

• Learn and observe how brain wave biofeedback can improve both low and high functioning areas of work and life performance;
• Understand how brain wave biofeedback can increase receptivity to spirituality and deeper life insights (feelings, body awareness, interpersonal relationship systems); and
• Identify optimal brain performance practices you can use to achieve more successes in your life. 

Presentation Outline:

1. Achieve optimal performance by balancing brain waves in desired areas of improvement: Calmer, Sleep Better, Improve Decision-Making, Improve Memory
2. Complete Optimal Performance Self –Assessment: Short Form
3. Obtain peak performance in Sports, Arts, and Cognitive abilities through brain wave biofeedback like Sean Casey, major league baseball player 
4. Achieve greater receptivity to Spirituality and deeper life insights
5. Identify optimal brain performance practices you can use to achieve more successes in your life on your own
    

Presenters:

Laurie Romig has been doing neurofeedback coaching for optimal brain performance since 2005.  She has provided executive coaching for twenty years.  Laurie completed the four day BCIA Neurofeedback certification course and has a Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of Texas in Education and Sociology.

Dr. Dennis Romig is a psychologist and CEO of Side by Side, Inc., a multidisciplinary “Think and Do Tank” in Austin, Texas. He received his Ph. D. from the University of Texas at Austin and did post-graduate studies in neuroscience and brain wave biofeedback from 1999 to 2009 in Washington, DC.  Romig, his wife Laurie and his colleague Dr. Angelo Bolea are co-authoring a book, How the Brain Heals Itself.

Part One: Bill Meacham on Consciousness and Human Excellence

The study of consciousness can be approached from a first-person point of view that is analagous to objective scientific study in its rigor and methodology. Phenomenology is the attempt to examine one’s own experience exactly as it is experienced, without bias or presupposition, and to report one’s findings to a community of practitioners. Phenomenological investigation reveals structures of experience that are corroborated by neuroscience and that have a certain unassailable impact on the investigator him- or herself. Having originary evidence of the workings of one’s own mind gives one great assurance — we might almost say certain knowledge — of the deep anatomy of one’s very being. Each of us is constituted as Being-in-the-World. We are ineluctably co-present with the objects of our experience and cannot help but participate in their formation as experienced. In doing so we constitute our own self as well. Knowledge of the nature of that self is the ultimate goal of the philosophical quest. Both the method and the findings of phenomenology yield important insights into the nature of human beings and how we can live a fulfilling life.
