Books!

Posted by Roberta Grimes • December 07, 2014 • 0 Comment

This year I have published seven books. Three are reissues of books in print, but four are newly out this year. It seems an insane achievement, like the time when I was terrified of heights but still I climbed on an open staircase to the top of St. Paul’s Cathedral dome. I really loved St.... Read More

No Fear

Posted by Roberta Grimes • November 27, 2014 • 2 Comments

There are many glorious fruits to come from finally understanding what we are, but to my mind the greatest benefit is that it frees you from fear altogether. Fear is pervasive in the modern world. We fear natural disasters and terrorism, cancer and accidents and nuclear war, alien invasions, our loved ones’ deaths, job loss,... Read More

Un-Consciousness

Posted by Roberta Grimes • November 18, 2014 • 4 Comments

To watch mainstream scientists flounder in their attempts to understand human consciousness used to be pass-the-popcorn time. You could see that they were missing the Big Picture, but you figured that if they took sufficient wrong turns eventually they would stumble upon the truth. Law of averages. Just made sense. They couldn’t insistent on being... Read More

Two weeks ago I had a wonderful time with Bobby Pickles and his sidekick, Matthew Piazza, doing an interview in freezing weather in a nineteenth-century graveyard near my childhood home.  It was so cold! But I loved being there with my two young friends. And when Bobby told me about his devoted care of his... Read More

Capital Punishment

Posted by Roberta Grimes • October 28, 2014 • 8 Comments

One thing about doing afterlife research and better understanding our greater reality is that what you learn helps you to establish evidence-based opinions on a great many things. At one time, I had little concern about capital punishment. So long as we executed only the guilty, what was the harm? To read of the despicable... Read More

Sex in the Afterlife

Posted by Roberta Grimes • October 21, 2014 • 11 Comments

One of the questions I am asked when I speak about The Fun of Dying and The Fun of Staying in Touch is whether we can have post-death sex. After all, the whole area of sexual relations is so important to our earthly lives. Isn’t it central to who we are?        I think it’s... Read More

Enlightenment!
