ADCRF is part of a triad of websites that is designed to collect information on all aspects of consciousness.  The main website is www.nderf.org which studies near-death experiences (NDE).  The other website is www.oberf.org and studies all other aspects of consciousness that are
                          not an NDE or ADC.

Hello Hollywood & Media Writers! - Check this out!

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Soul to Soulmate comes at a time when the world desperately needs more love.  This book tells you how to find your soulmate or if you already have a mate, this book tells you how to transform the relationship into one of ultimate love and respect.  As with all relationships, nothing is simple.  There are three portions in the book to understand the basis of human consciousness and behavior, the psychology of relationships and love, and then how to find your soulmate.  The chapter that I was most excited about was the study of soulmates.  In the beginning, I didn’t put a lot of credence to the “love at first sight” and thought it was really “lust at first sight.”  Just as research on this generally accepted concept proved me wrong – there are many other discoveries waiting for you to learn in Soul to Soulmates!  I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Evidence of The Afterlife

NEWS ALERT: Evidence of the Afterlife became a New York Times bestseller eight days after its release!  There are only 16 books on the bestseller list.  This is the book that is already changing the world! 

Order your copy today!

Dr. Jeffrey Long, Jody Long, and Paul Perry have teamed up to write this blockbuster book that became an instant Amazon bestseller after Dr. Long's appearance on NBC's Today Show.  You can see Dr. Long's interview by clicking here.

"Evidence of the Afterlife" is by far the largest scientific study of NDE ever presented, and is based on researching over 1300 NDEs shared with NDERF. This book is scientific in content, yet easy and a delight to read.  The people whose stories are presented span all age groups, races, and religious affiliations and come from all over the world, yet the similarities in their experiences are as awe-inspiring as they are inexplicable.  Using this treasure trove of data, Dr. Long explains how medical evidence fails to explain these reports and why there is only one plausible explanation—that people have survived death and traveled to another dimension.

"Evidence of the Afterlife" is so compelling that it will either validate your existing knowledge or it will heartily challenge your current belief system with nine lines of irrefutable evidence of the afterlife.  There are no explanations, medical or otherwise, that one can reasonably conclude after reading this book except that there is an afterlife!

4-26-11 Hello, it is finally time!  

After 10 years of research and sharing astounding experiences, Experience Research Foundation (ERF) goes to the next level.  In about 4 weeks, we launch the new websites that moves you from reading about spirituality, to compassion in action.  As I wrote about in my book From Soul to Soulmates, the lessons of the NDE are using those choices that bring more love into the world.  We start as individuals, then form soulmate relationships and ultimately, these foundations allow those of like spiritual mind to come together to heal the world. Soul2soulmate.org is a spiritual meeting place and relationship research website.  WebPeace.org is the website where volunteers from around the world can create and choose dynamic and inspirational projects, enjoy community, and share in whatever project they are interested in that helps others and the earth.  There will be newsletters, a bulletin board, and an annual conference.  So, stay tuned!

RESEARCH:

 “The Exclusive, Universal, and Multiple Experiences of ADC” By James A. Houck, Ph.D. 10/09/04  “Please don’t think I’m crazy, but…” is how most conversations typically begin around the subject of After Death Communication (ADC).  Most of the research in this area has been done from a qualitative (e.g., structured interviews) approach, which is an excellent way for people to begin telling their stories and comparing similar experiences with other bereft people.  Yet, are there others ways to statistically measure the frequency and uniqueness of such experiences?  In other words, are ADC’s random or purposeful to specific types of populations or bereavement groups? 
INTERESTING FAQ:

We analyzed 238 contributions to our ADC website form exploring the relationship between the deceased and the person reporting the ADC. We found that 46 (19%)of the contacts occurred within 24 hours or less. Interestingly, 35 (76%) of the 46 contacts occurred between blood relatives. Only 5 (14%) occurred between significant others. 
A BIG THANKS goes out to those who submitted their experiences on the website so that we can gain important insights into the ADC phenomena!

 


 
IMPORTANT FAQ:

COLLEEN S:  So does the "research" show that other people have these dreams?  What other thoughts do you have on these death dream scenarios?

JODY:  I, personally, think that being in an altered state of consciousness (the dream) makes it easier for loved ones who have passed to communicate with us on earth.  Far from being non-evidential, I would argue to the contrary.  The way that we process our reality is that before our subconscious will alert our conscious mind, the input must pass a threshold test.  If it is important then the subconscious will allow the input to move into our rational, or conscious level of mind.  In the dream state, this threshold may well be less since we do not have the waking overload of input from the 5 senses.  Therefore, communication that may normally be able to occur in a dream or drowsy state, would reach us easier than in the waking state of consciousness.

 

 

BELOVED PETS:  Some of you may have clients, friends, or colleagues who have lost a dog, cat, horse, bird, or other animal companion--or who are facing end of life choices for a pet.  Some of you may know such experiences first-hand.  The resources include free phone hot lines; bulletin boards; discussion groups; email support lists; help with decisions about euthanasia; information about creating a pet hospice at home; recommended readings; information for adults, children, and families who are losing or have lost a pet; information for veterinarians; ways to memorialize a pet; FAQs; peer support; online articles (e.g., Pet Loss Myths," "Coping with Pet Loss," "If Your Pet Has a Terminal Disease");  and and so on.

Here are our newest experiences: 

Robert L Experience 1/23/11 I was in the upstairs bedroom meditating and asking Danny, my son who died to help regarding his Aunt Diane's dream in which he appeared to her.. My wife was upstairs on the computer in the study.. All of a sudden the smoke detector went off ( no battery, it is connected by electrical wires).. It just kept blasting.. Than I said "ok let me go on the computer and write to Danny".. It just stopped.. I went on the computer using Dragon/program and he wrote to me ( I call it semi-automatic reading) concerning Aunt Diane's medical condition.. I than called Diane on the phone and told her what Daniel said.. She started to cry and said that is almost exactly what her Dr told her this afternoon. The smoke detector has not gone on since.
ADC from deceased son.

Paula F Experience 1/23/11 From the UK I was asleep in bed and my boyfriend woke and went to the toilet and I heard the telephone ring I sat up reached onto his side of the bed and picked the receiver up, my nana's voice said "hello Paula" I scanned my brain and thought how does my Nan know I am here , did I give her this number, I had not long moved in, I said "hello Nan!" she said "hello Paula" again and again and at that point it dawned on me that my Nan was was dead, my boyfriend walked into the room and said what are you doing, I looked down into my hands and realized we did not have a phone in the bedroom, I said My Nan just rang me"
ADC via phone call without a phone.

Bhawna A Experience 1/23/11 From India  I COULDN'T BELIEVE MY EYES AND I CRIED, I HUGGED HIM VERY TIGHTLY, THEN IMMEDIATELY HE WALKED OVER THE BATHROOM AND SAID TO US " WHERE DID U LEFT ME ALONE". AND HE SHUT THE BATHROOM'S DOOR, THEN I REALIZED HE IS NOT IN HIS SHIRT, HE WORE HIS THOSE CLOTHES WHICH HE HAD TAKEN AWAY ON HIS BODY AT THE LAST TIME, (I.E., WHITE JOCKEY AND LONG LOWER) HE HAD A WOUND MARK ON HIS LEFT FRONT HEAD SIDE. WHEN I DISCUSSED ABOUT THIS DREAM TO MY FAMILY MEMBERS THEY TOLD ME THAT HE HAD WOUND MARK ON HIS FOREHEAD IN REALTY. BECAUSE WHEN HE GOT HEART ATTACK HE WAS IN BATHROOM AND MAY BE DUE TO PAIN HE FELL ON THE FLOOR AND CRASH WITH THE WATER TAP. THIS WAS THE REASON OF HIS WOUND.
ADCs Dreams from India from deceased father.

Carolyn G Experiences 1/23/11 I was driving down the street towards town when I began to smell him very very strongly and I knew he was sitting in the car next to me, so I said Hi Will!, I drove straight to the nearest phone and called the nursing home he had been for about a year and asked about his condition and they told me he had passed only moments prior to my call.
ADC from deceased friend. 
I was in the school office, I did attendance first thing in the morning before going to help a teacher, the head secretary took me aside in the back and told me (so and so) had killed himself, I felt a plunge in my soul and heard in my head "It's not your fault" This moved me to tears and I went straight to the file to check the name with a picture to see if it was the child I thought it was, and yes it was he, I began to cry and he put his hand on my shoulder and whispered in my ear "You were right" … I had told him that God never ever gives us any challenge that we are not capable of conquering and that there was always a solution available, help for him, but if he did do something as drastic as killing himself he would only have to face the problem again in his next life and it would be even harder next time. So I knew he had made a special point to come back and let me know I wasn't to blame and was correct in my assessment.
ADC from former student in the school that she worked who died by suicide.

Alan K Experience 1/23/11 My mother died on the ides of March 1988.  She was a very lonely person with varying degrees of visitation from three children.  Her main form of entertainment was her television - she watched it day and night.  My sister stayed at her house for a while before she passed.  My sister did not work - was and is an alcoholic and would sell anything she could to get a drink.  While driving to the funeral home a few days after her death with my brother and sister I heard my mother say to me "make sure you get my television."  Even though I had one it was older and not in good shape but no one had talked about what to do with the little she possessed - her television being I suppose her best friend.  When I heard that I knew immediately what she meant.  She knew my sister would sell it for booze or drugs and I would use it not only to watch but to think of her every time I looked at it.  I expected some resistance from my sister but at that time I said "I want mother' TV."  The words were as if she was in the car with me.
ADC from mother and father.

Marlene B Experience 1/23/11 My mother had been in Hospice at home for her stage IV Lung Cancer and for almost a week all four of her children had been in her home taking care of her as her health declined when we moved her to this skilled nursing facility.  She got there at 6pm.  By the next day, she was in a bed by a window on an unusually warm January day with 10 of her loved ones gathered around her when she passed away.  Approximately thirty minutes after she passed away I smelled a very sweet, very pretty, smell of roses and asked out loud if any one else smelled any thing, and others said yes, roses.  My mother's favorite flower was a rose.
ADC involving the fragrance of roses, witnessed by others, shortly after her mother died.

Ulrich J Experience 1/23/11  I went to the back of the yard and was feeling rather blue over losing Holly...started crying somewhat and then stood up and looked to my right and I saw a cat strangely the same color as my holly...red and white hair. Holly was a golden retriever...the cat took an instant attraction to me and followed me as if it was a dog...I threw a ball and it chased it...it snuggled up to me and let me be affectionate to it many times...it was very cute. I actually wanted to take it home but it looked like someone owned it...and I also have sever allergies to it...so I thought either God sent the cat to comfort me or holly came to tell me in her own way she's ok...sounds crazy I know but that's what I got out of it.  That cat appeared out of nowhere, very peculiar.
ADC after pet dog died.

Lori Experience 1/18/11 I was lying in bed reading, and I fell into a very light sleep, the kind of sleep where you're halfway between sleep and wakefulness. I started dreaming, in which I was in my parents home. I wandered upstairs to their bedroom, where I saw my brother and dad on the bed playing cards. Even in the dream state I knew my father was not alive. I remember thinking "my dad is here". I came over to the bed behind him to give him a hug, and at that moment I woke from the dream. At that exact moment I simultaneously felt him hugging me. I could feel the hug and the warmth. I also heard VERY clear and distinctly in my right ear him say "I love you". I didn't say it out loud but thought "I love you too dad". The hug lasted about a minute or so and slowly the pressure of the hug released.
ADC Dream from father.

Jennifer B Experiences 1/18/11  A few days after that, I was walking out of the grocery store and saw a very clearly defined, bright rainbow that was in a complete arc from one end of the horizon to the other. There was a fainter one behind it. I could not help but notice, but did not think anything more of it. A couple days after that, my dad asked me if I had ever read any of my brother's poetry. I said "no". He then showed me one of his poems. In the poem it said "when you enter into the brightness, send me a rainbow to shine through the bleakness (of this life)" He wrote it to a very close friend of his that passed away several years ago.
ADCs from deceased brother.

Jean F Experience 1/18/11  I was laying there in bed crying silently to myself because I was not sure what I should do, it was dark in my room but plain as day I seen some sort of form, it was not a body but it was like smoke or cloud but you could see thru it and I heard my brother say in his voice its OK and at the very time I was thinking I was going to trade and from that moment on I never had another ill feeling about the issue and I feel still today I done the right thing… I have heard of ghosts and spirits and I thought I would be afraid but when my brother came to me I was overjoyed and it did not scare me at all and I am so glad it happened I would never be afraid again.
ADC from deceased brother with information that was helpful.

Jessica D Experience 1/16/11 Three weeks later I had a dream of my father.  I have always been a fairly vivid dreamer--I dream in color, I have many and varied adventures--but I cannot stress enough that this was the most unique dream of my life.  In the dream I met my father in the kitchen of my childhood home.  He was standing before me, smiling.  I told him I knew that this was a dream, and that he was dead.  I became very angry at him, asking him why he was coming to see me.  I screamed and cried, I asked him why he had to smoke (which led to his cancer), why he left us.  He listened to me very carefully, nodding.  Then he gathered me into a hug and said "Don't worry, I'll love you forever."  The hug felt like a physical reality.  And every detail of the dream--every sensation, every movement--was absolutely crystal clear reality.  I really did not feel like I was dreaming.  I felt only partially connected to my body.  Instead, I felt like I was traveling. 
ADC from father.

Gail Experiences 1/16/11 My Mother visited me a few weeks after she passed ( she had had cancer and incoherent the last 5 years of her life and had been sick since I was 5), I was 21 and staying the night at the hotel I had been working at and had just gotten ready for bed and just got into bed and my mother appeared before me, young and beautiful and said "Gail be good and kind to all and all good things will come to you", I felt so much love and I was the only one she visited out of 5 children and I felt that it was important to her and me, since she had not had the chance to raise me.
Several ADCs and other experiences.

Jennie T Experience 1/8/11  I instantly felt this calmness and then felt like someone was embracing me. I stood there for about 5 minutes with that same feeling then it finally loosened up so I walked back into the kitchen and sat down at the table again. I looked up and just said Thank You Mom
