Jeffrey Mishlove distinguishes between spiritual entities and a spiritual realm. He suggests that the reality of spirits is dependent upon the level of reality being discussed. Spirits may possess a dream body or an astral body; however, at a deeper level of reality, individual “selves” are something of an illusion created, according to Buddhist thought, by codependent origination.
New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in “parapsychology” ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980).
