DESCRIPTION
An Introduction and Overview of Between-Lives Spiritual Regression by Douglas Kinney Between-lives spiritual regression is a fairly new spiritual hypnosis tool for investigating the human soul. Between-lives sessions are much longer and go much deeper into the soul’s experience than can be achieved in past-life sessions. The foremost developer and practitioner of between-lives regression has been Dr. Michael Newton with his Life-between-Lives (LBL) regression methodology. In it, hypnosis subjects experience themselves as spiritual beings leaving the dead body of a past life, traveling into a nonphysical realm, and having experiences in this realm. These are generally the same experiences an NDEr has if their NDE includes the elements that capture the experiences of being in a nonphysical, spiritual realm. In his presentation to the Baltimore IONS group, Doug discussed this important new spiritual exploration tool from that is the subject of his new book, Frontiers of Knowledge. He described its development, Newton’s methodological approach, other key practitioners in this field, and highlights of their findings that he claims provide us with the sociology of souls in the lower dimensions of the spiritual realm. Topics covered include: 1. Soul “family” and soul energy-consciousness levels 2. Organization of the spiritual realm and soul “specializations” (similar to professions) 3. Soul activities in the spiritual realm, including planning next lives and role of a soul’s advisory group 4. Support for the phenomenon of reincarnation (including its purpose and the roles of karma and free will) 5. Soul types Even with the successes he claims, Doug makes the point that between-lives regression is still a relatively new discipline, and extra efforts are needed to establish its credibility. In his book, he illustrates how between-lives regression provides essentially the same experiences as NDEs that include rich spiritual-realm experiences. He believes this establishes between-lives regression as a useful and credible source of information on our spiritual nature in its expressions on Earth and in the spiritual realm. Doug was trained in Newton’s LBL approach by Dr. Allen Chips of the National Association of Transpersonal Hypnotherapy (NATH) in 2009. NATH sponsored Newton’s first LBL training session in 2001 and annually conducts between-lives regressions trainings in Virginia Beach. Doug is available for individual between-lives regression sessions.TRANSCRIPT

Plan
1. Frontiers of Knowledge provides context for a broader treatment of spiritual intelligence Important because of its role in explaining
anomalies
2. Describe between-lives spiritual hypnosis and its discoveries M. Newton’s life-between-lives (LBL) methodology Other contributors Discoveries about souls and the spiritual realm Its similarity of experiences with “rich” NDEs
3. Summary and thoughts on its future
Part 1: Context for Spiritual Intelligence from
Frontiers of Knowledge
Frontiers of Knowledge - What is New Today in Science, Consciousness, and Spirituality
Our mysterious universe 95% of universe’s energy/mass a
mystery Incredibly fine-tuned universe Role of consciousness in quantum mech.
New discoveries in Evolutionary biology, mind, unusual mind-
body effects, subtle-energies in healing, . . . New discoveries from investigations of
soul-related experiences Near-death (NDEs) Reincarnation experiences Between-lives regression
Frontiers Provides First Comprehensive OverviewFrontiers Provides First Comprehensive Overview

Key Cosmology Puzzle: Fine-tuning of Universal Constants
Fine-tuning of 3 dozen parameters or ratios seem designed so that life can emerge and evolve
Two examples• If ratio of EM to gravitational fields was off by one-
billionth, Hot and stable stars would not exist• If the weak nuclear force was much stronger
Giant stars would not have seeded the universe with heavier elements (carbon, etc.)
Is there a Universal designer or designers?Is there a Universal designer or designers?

Information Supporting Existence of and Operation of Spiritual Intelligence
1. Quanta—observer required to bring quantum particles into existence Who were the observers in the beginning of our universe?
2. Evolutionary biology and intelligent design Difficult to see how complex organisms can come into being
and evolve with environmental changes
3. NDEr’s consciousness existing in nonphysical form and reincarnation discoveries Is consciousness basically spiritual?
Many frontier scientific and consciousness discoveries require existence of nonphysical, spiritual intelligence
Many frontier scientific and consciousness discoveries require existence of nonphysical, spiritual intelligence
Sources of Knowledge / Information on Spiritual Intelligence
1. Through human systematic investigations NDEs Between-lives regression (NDEs on “demand”)
2. Other non-systematic sources Traditional religions: creation stories, experiences Shamans Channels and mediums General and past-life regression experiences Out-of-body experiences . . .

Development of Spiritual Hypnosis and Newton’s Life Between Life (LBL) Regression
Rapid development of spiritual hypnosis with past-life regression from 1960-80s Some explored “interlife” regression in latter period
In parallel Newton developed his LBL in 1970s LBL process for normal subjects: use 3-4 hour session
Achieve a deep, hypnosis state (>90% success rate) I was trained in Newton’s LBL technique
By Allen Chips of NATH in 2009 Have conducted ~ 15 sessions
Between-lives hypnosis is a young, developing disciplineBetween-lives hypnosis is a young, developing discipline

NDE cases – those with rich experiences of the spiritual realm
Overview of the Soul’s JourneyNewton’s Key Events and Activities 1/2
1. Separating from their dead physical body Past-life death scene; then moving away from earth Meeting & being “escorted” by spiritual guide
2. Entering the spiritual realm through a portal 3. Met by a welcoming soul or a group*
Can be a homecoming when they meet their “soul family” Souls are energy beings - display themselves in human
form for recognition
4. Becoming oriented to new dimension of existence* Having their energy recharged and balanced
5. Having life review of their just completed human life*6. Transitioning to their “place” in this realm
Overview of the Soul’s JourneyNewton’s Key Events and Activities 2/2
7. Meeting with their advisory council of wise-elder Reviewing their just completed life Feedback on current, on-going life
8. Being placed for study and/or training [profession like]
9. Planning for a next life and choosing their new body Coordinating with other participating souls
10. Preparing to leave spiritual realm for next incarnation
11. Being reborn as an infant in a new physical body

Meeting Spiritual Family
Consists of souls you incarnated with in current or previous lives Note: part of soul always remains in spiritual realm
Example from woman’s LBL I conducted (in Frontiers)1. Ex-boyfriend in her current life 2. Female friend in this life 3. Her best friend Jack from the last life4. Her dad in this life 5. Mother in this life and sister in her last life 6. Soul named Bernarr 7. Current boyfriend in this life
Five of the seven are in her current lifeFive of the seven are in her current life
15
Different Soul levels of Energy Consciousness
Beginning Soul: placed in cluster group after “nursery” Young are limited spiritual development Some reincarnating long time (30,000 years) & still “immature”
Intermediate Soul Ready for responsibilities—join “professional” training groups Describes “worlds” for special study / development Can simultaneously live two physical lives
Advanced Soul: knowledgeable of the source (God) Newton describes “sages”, old souls keeping “watch (highest
level of soul advancement) Backman has more information on these
16
Some “Professions” in Spiritual Realm(Newton calls them “Specialties”)
Guides: support each soul in its human life Teachers: guide young soul groups Nursery Teachers: care for new souls Masters of design: designers of physical planets
1. Geology: mountains, rivers, … 2. Life forms: plants, trees, living creatures
Explorers: seek out suitable training sites for souls Harmonizers: smooth out collective human energy Wardens: interactions between human & animal souls Ring of Destiny Controllers: set up & run processes
“Professions” Organized Like Medieval Guilds“Professions” Organized Like Medieval Guilds

Breadth of Newton’s Information: Some of the Chapters Contents in “Journey of Souls”
Live Selection: collaborative effort with group & counselors Decide: specific lessons and location Use Ring of Destiny to preview potential lives (later slide)
Some have “filler” life: short life supporting experiences of others
Choosing a New Body: one providing best opportunity Handicaps are attractive—provide challenges
Preparation for Embarkation [Newton’s example, p 260] Souls involved together go to the “place of recognition” Set up recognition signals for their human meetings
Rebirth: time soul joins with brain of baby varies Describes process of “merging” with the human brain (mind?)
To occur brain has to have a holographic form or interface
19
Relationships Major: Parents, mate,
siblings, best friends Secondary family/friends Other key roles: teacher,
boss, etc Major events
Meeting mate “Planned Meetings” for
assistance or helping Setting up recognitions

Description of the “Birthing” of a New Soul(Account from one of my LBL Subjects)
Subject: There is this orange colored cauldron that looks “boiling and hot.” Out of it come “drops” of energy that drop onto a conveyer-like belt. This occurs when the “temperature” is right. . . . They are caught as they come out by those supporting the process. Each drop has an essence. As each one develops in the nursery, the pure light changes into a unique color. Each one is a pure light that reflects the individual’s different color. The process is guided by nursery helpers. I see this individuation in terms of a metaphor of beautiful vases.
DK: How many different colors? Subject: Red and orange, silver orange. It is like each has a spark
in them. It is their own essence that attracts their color. DK: Where does it come from? Subject: The God Source provides the energy that creates the
young souls.Source: Frontiers of Knowledge, 248-49Also see Newton in Destiny of Souls, 339
Other Fascinating Between-Lives Topics Covered in Frontiers of Knowledge
Souls first incarnating on other worlds Soul having more than one simultaneous human life Different types of souls—not all souls incarnate on
physical worlds such as earth Examples of soul planning and rehearsing: first
meeting spouse-to-be: Katherine Graham’s parents
and Michael Newton Planning human death Participating in mass disasters Parallel lives
23
Technology in the Spiritual Realm
Transportation technology: moves soul Automatic guidance & control based on soul’s energy signal
Life books: holographic screen with emotions Shows live pictures; allows playing out of alternative choices
Ring of Destiny: provides preview of potential lives Soul surrounded by bank of screens (run by “controllers”) Soul mentally operates: select city, potential lives Displays scenes from this life, including major turning points
4 “Worlds” for soul development, training & recreation World w/o ego: learning to be; new souls gets ego & character World of knowing: mental place of planning and design World of altered time: simulation training (alter events), recreation World of creation & non-creation: physical to practice creation
Spiritual Realm Highly Organized for Soul Development Spiritual Realm Highly Organized for Soul Development
Part 3: Summary and Future of Between-Lives Regression
25
What I Would Like You to Take AwaySuggest 3 Items
1. Between-lives regression is a new development Reflects our access to more spiritual information Can expect to see new information over time
2. Between-lives regression provides another source of spiritual information similar to what rich NDEs provide Descriptions of soul’s journey in the spiritual realm Information on the society of souls in lower realms
3. Unique aspect compared to NDEs: You can experience yourself as a soul in the spiritual realm w/o “dying”
Between-Lives RegressionMore Information / Corroboration Needed on
Birthing of new souls Is there an evolutionary path for animals? Backman’s concept of core soul unit (soul mates?) Higher spiritual-realm dimensions & governing
councils Parallel lives accounts by Cannon Creation activities by more advanced souls
27
End with Quote from Newton [Destiny of Souls, p 401]
Coming to Earth is about traveling away from our home to a foreign land. Some things seem familiar but most are strange until we get used to them, especially conditions which are unforgiving. Our real home is a place of absolute peace, total acceptance and complete love. As souls separated from our home we can no longer assume these beautiful features will be present around us.
On earth we must learn to cope with intolerance, anger and sadness while searching for joy and love. We must not lose our integrity along the way, sacrificing goodness for survival and acquiring attitudes either superior or inferior to those around us.
We know that living in an imperfect world will help us to appreciate the true meaning of perfection. We ask for courage and humility before our journey into another life. As we grow in awareness so will the quality of our existence. This is how we are tested. Passing this test is our destiny.
