Hour 2

Unlocking the Secrets of Existence Beyond Death: A Paradigm-Shifting Revelation by Bryon Ehlmann

In a Natural Afterlife Discovered: The Newfound, Psychological Reality That Awaits Us at Death, Bryon Ehlmann challenges centuries-old beliefs and invites readers to embark on a transformative journey. Contrary to conventional wisdom, this groundbreaking book unveils a profound truth: death is not the end of consciousness nor synonymous with nonexistence. While it may or may not lead to a faith-based, supernatural afterlife, death preserves one's self (or soul) and makes any final moment of pleasure eternal.

Ehlmann's exploration illuminates a mesmerizing reality. Human consciousness is paused at death—imperceptibly suspended in time, as in never waking up from a dream and so, never knowing it's over. Remarkably, such pause may result in a timeless natural afterlife—possibly one of unparalleled happiness, akin to a heaven of profound fulfillment. To see this, Ehlmann invites readers to peer into the depths of their final conscious moments before the onset of eternal timelessness, offering a tantalizing glimpse into previously uncharted territories.

Professor Ehlmann retired from Florida A&M University and Southern Illinois University Edwardsville after 30 years of teaching and research in computer science. A native of St. Charles, Missouri, he earned a BS and MS in Computer Science from Missouri University of Science and Technology and a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Florida State University. For the last ten years, he has refocused his research on the Big Questions about life.
