Close Encounters of the Flipside Kind

For the past fifteen years, Richard has been filming, recording interviews with people talking to people offstage via hypnotherapy, mediumship or via guided meditation. In this book, Richard interviews people offstage about Aliens - including physicists who have left the stage (Stephen Hawking, Carl Sagan) as well as psychiatrists and scientists on the Flipside, (John E Mack, J Allen Hynek) peppering these interviews with personal accounts from people who were "visited by aliens" or who had an experience seeing them on their "council" or seeing them during a guided meditation or via hypnosis. People report the same things - that "we are all aliens" because "we all choose to come here from elsewhere" Mind bending reports.

In this book, Richard explores what people report from the afterlife about the process. There are interviews with scientists like J. Allen Hynek (who was Richard's science mentor in grade school) with Paul Hynek, his son, and there is a guided meditation where Paul access his father and hears the same information that his father gives via a medium (Jennifer Shaffer, from the Hacking the Afterlife podcast). There are interviews in the book with different types of "aliens" - beings that appear on people's "Divine Councils" as well as a grey alien who reports that he is a manufactured being, created by AI. When asked why they are gathering genetic material from people during abductions, he suggests "It's like donating blood to the Red Cross. The people who are visited by us to gather genetic material agreed to this process before they incarnated on earth." He claims the material is used to supply life to distant worlds where reproduction no longer functions.

As Gary Schwartz PhD wrote in the foreword to his first book FLIPSIDE, "this is the kind of book where one you've read it, you'll never see the world in the same way again."
