Guest Blog, Shelley A. Kaehr, Ph.D. - Are We Coexisting in Parallel Worlds?

“If a coin comes down heads, that means that the possibility of its coming down tails has collapsed. Until that moment the two possibilities were equal. But on another world, it does come down tails. And when that happens, the two worlds split apart.” - Philip Pullman, The Golden Compass, Goodreads.


Are We Coexisting in Parallel Worlds? Shelley A. Kaehr, Ph.D.

After the amazing discussion with Wendy on Wendy’s Coffeehouse, I thought I’d look up and post the excerpt from my book Beyond Reality: Evidence of Parallel Universes where I discuss my otherworldly trip to what I thought at the time to be Dunedin, New Zealand.

Here’s the story. Enjoy!

My interest in the multiverse and the existence of parallel universes began quite suddenly after having a dream one night. I saw a white note card with a word written on it in black ink that read: DUNEDIN.

The card flashed several times until I suddenly found myself driving in a taxi cab down a two lane road with a friend by my side. The topography was quite unusual, like nothing I had ever seen.

I was seated in the rear passenger side of the taxi and looking out my window, I saw the most beautiful mountains and trees and very unusual buildings. I struggled to take it all in as the taxi sped along the highway carrying me to an unknown destination.

Out the left side window where my friend was seated, I saw the ocean. Occasionally, cars would pass us. I wondered where we were going. After some time, the taxi stopped and my friend stepped out. I said goodbye and continued alone down the same road. When I finally arrived at my destination, I found myself in a little town I later identified as Dunedin, New Zealand.

I got a job selling advertising and met several new friends. About the time we were getting ready for an Asian themed festival of some sorts, I remember going to my boss and telling her I was tired of selling advertising and I wanted to become an announcer on the local radio station. She happily agreed to my request saying the cut in pay would be minimal. I was happy.

When I woke up that morning, I was stunned by the vividness of this “dream.” I immediately went to the phone to call my friend. “I had to call you because I have had the most profound and realistic dream,” I said, relaying all the details above. The answer I got was one that shocked me.

“I know,” he said, “because I had the same dream.” There was silence on the phone. “What are you talking about?” I asked. “I was there,” he said. “When you dropped me off, I kept waiting for you to come back and you never did. I got a job as a city manager and had a lot of people working for me.”

“Did you see all of the strange buildings?” I asked. “I remember them vaguely, but I was looking out at the ocean,” he said. Sure enough, in the dream, he was seated in the rear driver’s side – the side nearest the ocean.

This all added up to something. But what? I had no idea, but was curious to explore it further. Since that time, I have interviewed dozens of people who describe to me in great detail their firsthand accounts of what they call parallel realities or alternative universes. This has coincided with numerous articles currently flooding scientific journals about new evidence for parallel universes.

Could it be that scientists and spiritualists are finally about to come to some form of agreement on the way things work in the cosmos? These are interesting times, indeed. The above tale and other strange and unexplainable happenings in my life prompted me to begin investigating this phenomenon with others.

I have collected many interviews from all over the United States and a few from abroad to share with you in this writing. Although at this time, the theories that would prove existence of such things are yet to be discovered, my hope for this writing is to bring the phenomenon into the consciousness of us all as a means to encourage scientists in this work as we attempt to answer what I believe is the most important question of all: why are we here? Perhaps these pages will spur us on to think of this and other perplexing questions from a new perspective.

So there you have it!

Reading this again, I realize I may have relayed details a little differently in my talk with Wendy, as this is something I haven’t thought of in years, other than back in 2017 when I made my attempt to go to New Zealand and my ship went adrift at sea before I could ever make it to the supposedly lovely little town called Dunedin.

All these years since I first published Beyond Reality, I am still left wondering, and perhaps I will never know for sure whether my doppelganger is happily hosting a radio program in Dunedin. These days I feel blessed in my life and realize that I don’t necessarily have to know the answer to everything right now.

One of these days when we ascend into our next heavenly reality, I believe these questions and more will be answered. Until then, a stone is left unturned about my soul’s path and journey. And so, the adventure continues!
