Twenty two years ago I had a very peculiar dream. I transcribed it and made a few notes. I’ve thought of this strange dream occasionally over the years:
I dreamed that I was reviewing a past event. In the dream, I was reviewing, minute-by-minute, with total visual recall, a Cake concert that I had seen. The concert was held in some sort of public plaza. I was reviewing the scene, looking over the players and studying them, in minute and nostalgic detail. The concert occurred during a happy time in my life. Some scenes I zoomed in on; I was able to re-run certain scenes. I was interested in finding correspondences between the scenes and other aspects of my life during that time. I decided to do a search on All Music Guide on "Cake" but nothing came up; the group had disbanded. I decided to do a search on the album “Prolonging The Magic.”
I noted that the “feel” of the review was almost identical to that of experiencing an actual event, and that it seemed to allude to an afterlife ability to review physical events in detail. The strange thing about the dream is that I still remember it well to this day; it had a minor impact on me, although ironically it’s not “real”: I’ve never seen the band “Cake” in concert nor bought any of their albums. (Also notable is a constant in my dreams—a total inability to complete a search on any computer or smartphone.) Since I’ve had this dream, I’ve read more about what is sometimes called the “Hall of Records.” Michael Newton discusses it extensively in “Destiny Of Souls.” Seth alludes to it, but does name it:
Perhaps your life span runs for seventy-seven years. After death you may, under certain conditions and if you choose, experience the events of those seventy-seven years at your leisure — but not necessarily in terms of continuity. You may alter the events. You can manipulate within that particular dimension of activity that represented your seventy-seven years. If you find severe errors of judgment, you may then correct them. You may perfect, in other words, but you cannot again enter into that frame of reference as a completely participating consciousness following, say, the historic trends of the time, joining into the mass-hallucinated existence that resulted from the applied consciousness of your self and your “contemporaries.”
You may feel that you want to “relive” certain episodes of your life so that you can understand them better. Your life’s experience, therefore, is your own. Such conditions certainly are not alien. In ordinary living, you often imagine yourself behaving in a different manner than you did, or in your mind reexperiencing events in order to gain greater understanding from them. Your life is your own personal experience- perspective, and when at death you take it out of the mass physical time context, then you can experience it in many ways. (Seth Speaks)
Newton describes the mechanics of this life review process:
When a client uses the word "screen" to describe how they view events, the setting is relevant. Small conference rooms and the library appear to have tables with a variety of TV-size books. These so-called books have three-dimensional illuminated viewing screens. One client echoed the thoughts of most subjects when she said, "These records give the illusion of books with pages, but they are sheets of energy which vibrate and form live picture-patterns of events."
All cosmic viewing screens are multidimensional, with coordinates to record spacetime avenues of occurrence. These are often referred to as timelines and they can be manipulated by thought scanning.
Regardless of screen size, the length, width and depth in each frame allows the soul to become part of a procession of cause and effect sequences. * * * While there are no restrictions for time travel study, most of my subjects appear to use the smaller screens more for observing past events in which they once participated. Souls take a portion of their energy, leaving the rest at the console, and enter the screens in one of two ways:
1. As observers moving as unseen ghosts through scenes on Earth with no influence on events. I see this as working with virtual reality.
2. As participants where they will assume roles in the action of the scene, even to the extent of altering reality from the original by re-creations.
Once reviewed, everything returns to what it was since the constant reality of a past event on a physical world remains the same from the perspective of the soul who took part in the original event.
Events on any screen can be moved forward or backward. They can be placed into fast or slow motion or suspended for study. All possibilities of occurrences involving the viewer are then available for study, as if they were using a movie projector. (Destiny of Souls)
I’ve read both of these books several times to see if spot any solid “memories” that have surfaced in my dream record, but this is the only one I’ve found (so far). This may be due to the fact that I rarely go back and read my dreams. But in recent years I’ve adopted the hobby of collecting evidence of commonality in these scattered accounts—I believe that the afterlife is a real place. In fact, I think it’s a misnomer to label it an “afterlife.” It is an extension of our present reality, and for many, it’s indistinguishable from their physical reality, one that at present we simply can’t see.
