Vol 5 - A GREATER REALITY: The New Paradigm of Nonlocal Consciousness, the Paranormal and the Contact Modalities: VOLUME 5: Experiencers Chapters

My name is Reinerio (Rey) Hernandez and I was a Ph.D. Candidate at the University of California at Berkeley where I was the recipient of a National Science Foundation Ph.D. Fellowship. I am also an “Experiencer” of the paranormal Contact Modalities.I am currently the Director of the Consciousness and Contact Research Institute, or CCRI, an academic research institute comprised of more than 25 Ph.D. academics, medical doctors, and researchers whose mission is to explore the findings of consciousness research and the phenomenology of “paranormal experiences”, what CCRI calls “The Contact Modalities, a term I coined in 2013. The term “Contact Modalities” is defined as “all of the diverse ways that humans are ‘piercing the veil’ of our physical reality and having perceived contact with consciousness-based Higher Forms of Intelligence”, also called “Non-Human Intelligence”. Examples of the Contact Modalities are as follows: Near-Death Experiences (NDEs), Out of Body Experiences (OBEs), Astral Travel Experiences (ATE), (which are very different from OBEs), Conscious Aerial Phenomena (CAP-UFOs), (commonly called UFOs or UAPs), contact experiences with perceived deceased humans (commonly called Ghosts or Spirits), contact experiences via Hallucinogenic Journeys (via entheogens such as DMT, Psilocybin, LSD, etc.), contact experiences via Remote Viewing or other forms of clairvoyance, contact experiences via Channeling or Mediumship, contact via the many forms of Post Death Communications, contact experiences via Lucid Dreams, contact via perceived Poltergeists experiences or spiritual attachments, and many other types of “paranormal” contact experiences with tens of thousands of diverse forms of Non-Human Intelligence, whether they be perceived as physical or non-physical.The researchers, Ph.D. academics, and Medical Doctors of the CCRI organization propose two major hypotheses:1) That Consciousness, our Greater Multidimensional Reality, is “Fundamental” and not our perceived physical reality; and2) That all of the paranormal Contact Modalities, need to be perceived as ONE integrated phenomenon under Consciousness, and not as separate and distinct phenomena.My most recent project is the publication of a 6-volume book series (800 pages for each volume) titled “A GREATER REALITY: The New Paradigm of Nonlocal Consciousness, the Paranormal and the Contact Modalities”. These 6 volumes are co-edited by myself, Dr. Rudy Schild (retired professor of Astrophysics at Harvard University), Dr. Jon Klimo, (retired professor of Psychology), Dr. Michael Grosso (retired professor of Philosophy) Dr. Joseph Burkes (retired MD ER Physician), and Dr. Jeffrey Long, an MD Oncologist and one of the world’s leading researchers on the NDE phenomenon. Volumes 1 and 2 are theoretical and academic and contain articles by more than 30 Ph.D. academics, professors at medical schools, medical doctors, and lay researchers. These scholars argue that Consciousness (Our Greater Reality) is Fundamental and not our perceived physical reality. Secondly, they argue that all of the paranormal Contact Modalities, are ONE integrated phenomenon. Volumes 3 – 6, also 800 pages each, contain articles written by major “Experiencers” of the Contact Modalities. Each of these Experiencers has had more than 3 different types of Contact Modalities experiences. For example, Dr. Melinda Greer is a recently retired MD Pediatrician. Melinda has had 2 NDEs, has seen many deceased spirits, has seen 14 different UFOs in various forms, has had 3 up-close Big Foot experiences, has had various OBEs, and many other experiences via the Contact Modalities. Volumes 3 – 6 contain many similar experiencer-written chapters. The CCRI website is: AGreaterReality.ComThe CCRI email is: Info@AGreaterReality.Com Read more
