oh, please don't get caught up in the game of 'this person has studied that, so they know more than me." you have had 20 years of practical experience in the field, your knowledge base would be far greater than mine, and therefore i bow down before thee.
also, you do not have to had time studying in any particular subject to become first rate in a particular field (well, maybe neurosurgery). have you heard of a lass named Suzy Smith? She wrote over 30 books in the field of parapsychology?
a quick bio reads thus:
"Suzy Smith has been vitally interested in ESP, parapsychology and psychic research since the 1950's. In her many popular books she as shared her enthusiasm with investigating and communicating with the spiritual worlds BOTH AS A MEDIUM AND A RESEARCHER. A former resident of Tucson, Arizona, Smith used to oversee the Survival Research Foundation which she established in 1971 to procure scientific evidence for the survival of consciousness beyond physical death."
(cited:http://www.victorzammit.com/hall/index.html)
I think her background was in journalism, which goes to show that the most important quality in this field is a mind that can question and persisitence.
a cynical, agnostic newspaperperson, Susy Smith fought against a belief
in the possibility of spirit communication all during the time she was
studying and researching the subject. Now, after publicaion of all her
books—which include Life Is Forever, ESP and Hypnosis, How to Develop Your ESP, and Confessional of a Psychic, in which she tells of her own gradual psychical development—she admits to having become convinced of the survival of the human soul on the basis of evidence alone.
she also believed that she was in contact with a spirit called (if i recall properly) james, who wrote a book through her via automatic writing called "the book of james". apparently james had been dead for 60 odd years.
i think i read in 'the after life experiments' that she was coming through as a spirit that was assisting researchers in life after death studies/contacts. through my readings, i have read that people, inparticular those in this field of this research, choose to be part of groups that help people in the physical world collate information to advance the knowledge we have of what happens to us when we pass.
certainly what i have researched in regards to NDEs, we do not sit on clouds and strum harps for eternity. the fundamental principles of learning and advancing spiritually through the cultivation of knowledge continues after physical death. that we are all given 'jobs' to undertake to help in spiritually advancing our souls.
and i have heard quite a number of times that the people we meet are destined to cross our paths in a continual role cycle of teacher and learner. that the people in your team are not there by coincidence and that somewhere on your path of advancing your knowledge, these are the souls that have agreed to come together to work towards the common goal of afterlife research.
which, according to many books i have read, i am meant to bother you guys at this precise moment in time.
mwa.
ha.
haaaaaaaaaaaa.
ps: i do not know what is happening with the editing.the writing looks like it is lined up alright prior to posting.
