and we are thinking about the good times we spent together playing in the hay on the farm.
    Dr. N: And he is letting you see all this in your mind so you will know who he is?
    S: Yes … as I knew him in my last life … so I won’t be afraid. He knows I am still a little shocked over my death. (subject had died suddenly in an automobile accident)
    Dr. N: Then, right after death, no matter how many deaths we may have experienced in other lives, it is possible to be a little fearful until we get used to the spirit world again?
    S: It’s not really fear-that’s wrong-more like I’m apprehensive, maybe. It varies for me each time. The car crash caught me unprepared. I’m still a little mixed up.
    Dr. N: All right, let’s go forward a bit more. What is Uncle Charlie doing now?
    S: He is taking me to the … place I should go …
    Dr. N: On the count of three, let’s go there. One-two-three! Tell me what is happening.
    S: (long pause) There… are … other people around … and they look… friendly… as I approach … they seem to want me to join them…
    Dr. N: Continue to move towards them. Do you get the impression they might be waiting for you?
    S: (recognition) Yes! In fact, I realize I have been with them before (pause) No, don’t go!
    Dr. N: What’s happening now?
    S: (very upset) Uncle Charlie is leaving me. Why is he going away?
    Dr. N: (I stop the dialogue to use standard calming techniques in these circumstances, and then we continue.) Look deeply with your inner mind. You must realize why Uncle Charlie is leaving you at this point?
    S: (more relaxed but with regret) Yes … he stays in a … different place than I do … he just came to meet me .. to bring me here.
    Dr. N: I think I understand. Uncle Charlie’s job was to be the first person to meet you after your death and see you were okay. I’d like to know if you feel better now, and more at home.
    S: Yes, I do. That’s why Uncle Charlie has left me with the others.
    A curious phenomenon about the spirit world is that important people in our lives are always able to greet us, even though they may already be living another life in a new body. This will be explained in Chapter Six. In Chapter Ten, I will examine the ability of souls to divide their essence so they can be in more than one body at a time on Earth.
    Usually at this juncture in a soul’s passage, the carry-on luggage of Earth’s physical and mental burdens are diminishing for two reasons. First, the evidence of a carefully directed order and harmony in the spirit world has brought back the remembrance of what we left behind before we chose life in physical form. Secondly, there is the overwhelming impact of seeing people we thought we would never meet again after they died on Earth. Here is another example.
    Case 7
    Dr. N: Now that you have had the chance to adjust to your surroundings in the spirit world, tell me what effect this place has on you.
    S: It’s so … warm and comforting. I’m relieved to be away from Earth. I just want to stay here always. There is no tension, or worries, only a sense of well-being. I’m just floating … how beautiful…
    Dr. N: As you continue to float along, what is your next major impression as you pass the spiritual gateway?
    S: (pause) Familiarity.
    Dr. N: What is familiar?
    S: (after some hesitation) Uh mm… people … friends … are here, I think.
    Dr. N: Do you see these people as familiar people on Earth?
    S: I … have a sensation of their presence … people I knew
    Dr. N: All right, keep moving along. What do you see next?
    S: Lights… soft… kind of cloudy-like.
    Dr. N: As you are moving, does this light continue to look the same?
    S: No, they are growing … blobs of energy … and I know they are people!
    Dr. N: Are you moving toward them, or are they coming toward you?
    S: We are drifting toward each other, but I am going slower than they are because … I’m uncertain what to do
    Dr. N: Just relax and continue floating while
