What if the veil separating our world from the unseen was thinner than we think? In this episode, Dr. Bernard Beitman explores the mysteries of non-ordinary consciousness with David Brown and Sarah Huntley—two researchers delving into encounters with beings that defy conventional reality. Who are the beings that appear at the edge of sleep, death, or deep meditation? Are they parts of ourselves, messengers, or something else entirely?
