The van they were traveling in encountered an obstacle in the form of a large, brightly lit, saucer-shaped object resting on the road ahead of them.

He shares the transcripts of several regressive hypnosis sessions he underwent during the investigation of his case and describes his struggle to integrate the recovered memories of the experiences into his perception of reality and how it forever changed his life.He explains how the experiences altered his spiritual beliefs and led him on an explorative journey into religion, Gnosticism, reincarnation, interdimensional portals, quantum mechanics, the simulated holographic universe hypothesis, multidimensional realities, mysticism, spirituality and eventually consciousness itself.
