After a long break, we are finally back. As I type these lines, the world
outside is in constant revolution, and power centers on Earth shift.
Fitting this, the leatest addition to our list of movies delivers thrilling
suspense as well as some truly heavenly images. Enjoy The Lovely Bones
when you can.
Besides this, adapting the books for recording will continue shortly. All else
will fall into place when the time is right.
Whoever is interested in messages from the other side of life regarding
current affairs, may check out Montague Keen’s messages. For a while now,
we have supported them with translations, and while not everybody may
appreciate their urgency, they certainly contain vital information.
June 22nd
While summer made a cold and rainy start, there are still many things to
organize and sort out around here. I keep finding interesting movies to do
with the afterlife and am only too happy to pass on the good news - and
even though they present very different aspects of what may be to come,
they all seem to agree that Justice seems to be a common concept - one that
is equally desirable and hard to find on Earth at the moment.
The current addition to my list of viewing touches on that point in a
humorous way.
While I wouldn’t call it an outstanding movie, it’s good fun from time to
time, certainyl woth viewing - and üresents some very poignant truths about
the afterlife - as well as the current one.
April 19th
After a series of extremely demanding months, I finally find the time to take
care of RJL project again. I am happy to say, that despite little actual
progress, the project preconditions have improved a lot. After undertaking
some necessary changes, like moving the studio to another location, I have
come to the conclusion that financing RJL project may just not go at the
speed I would want it to. Anyway, I haven’t played all my cards yet.
Also, as I am always on the lookout for new movies for that section of the
website, I was able to add Afterwards to the little collection there. It’s not
actually a movie depicting the afterlife, but it surely touches the topic in an
interesting way, putting some aspects of your existence here into much-
needed perspective.
December 22nd
Dear friends, in 2014, we have successfully established RJLproject. For
2015, we are about to set new goals.
A very warm Thank You to all who supported us so far and know this work
is a vital piece of a mosaic soon to fall into place for all of mankind. For
now we wish you a Peaceful Christmas, a Happy New Year, and of course
excellent and educational entertainment with our newest film tip:
The Five People You Meet In Heaven
With a beautiful cast around Jon Voight and Jeff Daniels, this 180 minutes
long epic release from 2004 guides you through various aspects of a
beginning afterlife. Highly recommended - worth every minute!
For this year, RJLproject wishes you all the best, see you around in 2015
with more news and some serious progress.
November 16th
After a prolonged hiatus, here’s a brief news update, in which, frankly, there
is very little for me to report. Donations and all else are very slow these
days. Still, I wish to thank all of you who found it in their hearts to support
the project financially.
I have prepared for some clear and much faster progress in 2015, so I hope
we will see the first artwork(s) and maybe even a brief sample of the first
video book next year - which will then be used to fuel a crowd-funding
campaign, which I hope will really get things moving.
Some of you may be interested in the Near Death website, which explores a
field closely related to RJLproject, though on a much more serious bases.
For now I wish you many revelations in the weeks to come, and best of
health.
September 23rd
First of all, a big thank you to Froilan and all the others who have been
donating since the site was last updated. Your support is much appreciated,
and not a penny of those donations has been spent so far! Once we have
gathered enough for a first painting, we will give this initiative a more
colorful outlook on things to come!
Media-wise, I have decided to stay alert re. movies giving us some kind of
vision of the afterlife. Twitter-followers have received this in our last tweet
already: “Wings of Fame” is worth watching. It may be depicting certain
aspects of karma in just the right way, though it certainly has its odd
touches. Still, a movie with Peter O’Toole and a young Colin Firth, certainly
worth a bit of my time.
August 6th
After a brief summer hiatus, quite some travelling and a lot of thinking,
faced with the lack of incoming donations, I have decided to more actively
move things forward.
Promotions for this website have started yesterday, and if you wish to
participate, but cannot spare, please support RJLproject with your activity:
- Link to our start page on your website
- Talk about RJLproject
- Post it on Facebook
- Get involved in one of the following activities, which are all totally free of
charge, but can earn us some small, automated donations:
- Get a Bicoin wallet (= account), for example with MultiBit.
- Login, watch advertisements or websites, gamble with the free bitcoins you
are awarded for your activities here, here, here or here.
As you do this, RJLproject will be awareded a bonus for your earnings.
While that isn’t much, it’s better than nothing. We have tested and verified
those activities, and they are really all totally free of charge.
Still, you may want to wipe possible cookies off your system afterwards
with CCleaner.
As for the advertisements for RJLproject I mentioned, I paid them out of my
own pocket. Not a single donation to RJLproject will ever be used for this -
they all go straight into the project, and nothing else. Besides, you have my
word that once I come to unforeseen riches, I will happily support RJL with
a generous donation. :)
To put things into some perspective: The overall first phase of the project
(recording of all three books in English, produce them nicely etc.) will cost
around US$ 110,000.-. Donations so far are around US$ 80.- (no mistake).
While I really appreciate all donations and warmly thank you for them, what
we have doesn’t get us very far. This means you will be seeing more activity
to get liftoff in the (hopefully) near future.
Meanwhile, please consider the above Bitcoin options.
Thank you and have a great rest of the summer! :)
P.S.: On a lighter note, this video ...

... may be of some interest to you.
June 19th
More recommended viewing: In case you missed out on a few other movies
regarding the subject of the afterlife, here are some. Descriptions taken
from Amazon. Brief comments added.
Hereafter
The lives of a retired psychic, a French tsunami survivor and a London
schoolboy intersect, forever changed by what they believe might - or must -
exist in the hereafter.
Worth seeing alone for the excellent acting of Matt Damon, also for having
the courage to include the tsunami and London tube bombings in its plot.
Nice to see also, how Clint Eastwood as a director has grown from “Dirty
Harry” to strong, insightful movies.
What Dreams May Come
After Chris Nielsen dies in an accident, he tries to remain close to his
beautiful mortal wife, Annie. With a friendly spirit assigned to guide him, he
begins to adapt to his new state of being in a setting that can only be
described as heavenly.
An impressive cast and likewise impressive special effects make not only
for some nice entertainment, but also include quite a bit of “heavenly”
knowledge. Various tragic and dramatic elements make it a good,
compelling movie, also for people not interested in the afterlife etc. Also
touches the topic of reincarnation and soul-mates. Beautiful, colorful and
touching.
Heaven is For Real
The true story of a small-town father who must find the courage and
conviction to share his son's extraordinary, life-changing experience with the
world. Greg Kinnear (Todd Burpo) and Kelly Reilly (Sonja Burpo) portray the
real-life couple whose son Colton (Connor Corum) claims to have visited
Heaven during a near death experience. Colton recounts the details of his
amazing journey with childlike innocence and speaks matter-of-factly about
things that happened before his birth ... things he couldn't possibly know.
I have yet to see it, will then edit this comment. From the trailer and info, it
seems like it gives some powerful insights in what is to come in a beautiful
way - I also like the cast, so I am looking forward to this a lot.
June 18th
It’s been a while since we last updated - and here we go. After a 10-day visit
to the US, we can happily report that the Bitcoin option is a well-accepted
feature of this wehbsite. Even though we are still far from being able to start
anything, it shows that there is an interest and willingness to support the
subject. Thank you to all donators!
One of the next steps will be to script an record our presentation video -
and launch a first crowdfunding campaign.
Also thanks to numerologist Michelle Arbeau (website) for her interest.
Please remember to subscribe to our mailing list through the envelope on
the left.
Also, if you are interested in a link exchange, please let us know. We are
currently preparing a page for this.
Highly recommended viewing!
The movie “Nosso Lar”, based on the work of Brazilian medium Chico Xavier
is now also available in English and also German, titled “Astral City”. This is
a year-long wish come true! We had contacted the publisher and offered to
dub it into German, but it seems, somehow, this has been taken care of.
Given all the information gathered so far, this seems to he a pretty good
representation of the life that awaits.
May 23rd
This week, I heard the good news that, finally, somebody has built a “free
energy” generator and is willing to share it with the world. I hope it’s true.
More information can be found at this address:
http://www.allegedlydave.com/blog.htm?article_id=5.
RJLproject has seen mainly cosmetic changes this week, and a first test
mailing was sent our through a new mailing platform, which gives the
recipients more and easier control. We apologise if you received a mail you
didn’t want. We’re getting better at this. You can now easily unsubscribe or
let us know in an email. You can click on the envelope to the left to
subscribe.
Also, if you are interested in a link exchange, please let us know. We are
currently preparing a page for this.
Other than that, we received our first bitcoin donations! Thanks to you,
wherever you are! :)
May 18th
Another week of slowly increasing public awareness for our project. On my
ways through the internet, I came across many websites, for example that of
Howard David Johnson. Click on the image to the left to take a look at more
of his splendid art.
Also, this week saw our first donation coming in! Thank you very much to
Angela for this welcome boost!
As you have already seen, we now accept Bitcoin donations as well!
Please, also subscribe to our mailing list, spread the word and help
RJLproject to really take off!
May 9th
Time for a (long overdue) update!
As I am working my way through websites of healers, hypnotists, reiki
practitioners, psychics, counsellors, coaches, communities, producers and
salespeople in my search of people to support RJLproject, I get a feeling for
how much society has already transformed, and that spirituality is on the
verge of becoming not only a short-lived “mainstream” phenomenon, but a
common, accepted and naturally required way of life. Good show!
The past weeks have seen some upgrades to my working and living
environment, as well as constant progress in the project and rising access
figures on this website.
Keep it up, everybody! As will we.
P.S.: Accompanying this update is another of Christine’s beautiful pictures.
April 28th
We have first signs that our website is coming to life. As we keep sending
out information about our project, as was to be expected, initial reactions
would be slowish.
Still, we managed to achieve a spike of interest towards the week-end after
the first batch of mails, with visitors from the U.S., Australia and Austria as
well as the usual robots.
Please keep spreading the word, as we will keep informing more people
about what we want to achieve.
April 22nd
Only briefly after I sent out a first batch of emails in order to make RJL
project known, I started receiving answers - and a lot friendlier ones than I
had anticipated!
Christine Dennett even attached pictures she painted, which I found
amazingly beautiful, and one of which you can see to the left. You can visit
one of her websites under kesaralight.weebly.com.
Other than that, I keep sending out emails to find more supporters.
Welcome also to all who started following on Twitter!
More good news hopefully later this week.
April 16th
For those among you who absolutely cannot wait to support us, I have
added a PayPal button to the website.
Other than that, the last two weeks have seen me scouting for addresses to
send a mailing to in the hopes that it will be well-received and we will start
getting some traffic onto this site. Before that isn’t the case, there’s no point
in starting a fundraiser. So, please tell everybody and let’s begin making a
difference!
Also, there is now an additional page on this site, containing a text sample
for those who haven’t read Robert James Lees’ books yet.
Addendum, Apr. 17th: The start page now also contains a “QR code” you
can scan with smartphone etc. It merely contains the website address -
every little bit helps. :)
April 3rd
Everything is proceeding. Made minor updates to this website and another
tweet - well, to three followers. Have received more cost estimates, and have
simplified the structure of production and rewards considerably. This has
required more work than anticipated, but it has definitely moved into the
right direction and is now complete.
Work on the script of “Through the Mists” has also continued, and I am
thinking a lot about the presentation video and the next steps.
I have begun building a mailing list of people and groups I will make the
project known to, hoping they are the right ones to address.
March 29th
We are online! Please check back for updates.
Also, should you find something wrong or not working, please let us know.
March 27th
We now have a Twitter account. If you wish to follow us, please use this
address: @RJL_project.
Other than that, this website is nearing web-readiness. We hope to have it
online on the following week-end.
By then, more work on the script of “Through the Mists” has been done, too.
mid-march, 2014
After speaking with post-production, recording studio and “my guys” here
at the studio, I have set out again - and found an illustrator I find entirely
suited to do the title design and “video book” imagery. His name is Michael
Meier, and you can visit his website. The image seen on the left I am
particularly fond of, and I am 100% certain, after a lengthy phone
conversation with him, that he is the right person for the job.
On the side, I have begun spending the evenings reading “Through the
Mists” again, and marking it up a) for turning it into a useable audio script
and b) for finding descriptions that Michael can turn into his magnificent
drawings.
I hope to hear back soon from the studio in London, so I can finalize my
plannings, and pass on to the next big step: the presentation and video for
the main fundraiser.
A big thank-you to all the good souls who so far crossed my way and
helped, not the least of which is Stephen Butt of www.rjlees.co.uk/.
Hamburg, Germany, early March, 2014
I have now started preparing for the project itself, i.e. clarify what it is we
want to do, started doing spreadsheets for different parts of the project.
Am still waiting for external estimates to make things clearer.
Since it will require some money to do everything I have in mind, I have
decided to slice it up. The very basic goal will be to record “Through the
Mists” with a single narrator.
Should people find it in their hearts to give us more support, we will do all
three books, maybe even “The Heretic”, then what I call “video books”, then
actual new print version with all the imagery to be created for the video
book version - and all of this intertwined with rewards for our supporters.
This work is advanced, still it needs some tweaking.
Dominican Republic, February 2014
Among all the troubles I experience as member of a group that just doesn’t
work the way this old world would like us to, I have both been cursed and
blessed.
Blessed, for I have the conciousness to realize the change required, and at
the same moment cursed, for what can a single man do?
Unlike the heroes of many tales and movies, all one can do is try to live a
decent life, follow one’s inspiration, let the heart decide what to do.
For the second time in the last years, I feel that I want to use the talents I
have been blessed with to spread the good word - in this case produce
recordings of Robert James Lees’ trilogy of books describing the afterlife.
I wonder why that has not been done before ...
After my considerations, and despite the critical situation there, I decide to
leave my island home, family and friends, to live as a hermit in Hamburg,
Germany, deal with my aspirations, sort out a number of things and begin
working on RJL project.
Latest News
For those of you who may not be familiar to the works of
Robert James Lees, here is a samples for you to read, right
out of Book 1, “Through the Mists”:
“For this reason the poor always had my sympathy. When I
thought upon the subject, I often felt as if I should be glad to
find the pearly gates shut upon me, if by that means I could be
some little consolation to the multitudes in hell.
It was wicked - blasphemous - to feel so, so the vicar once told
me; but it was constitutional - part of my unfortunate malady,
and he found it useless to attempt to change my mind.
I never could understand the righteousness of poverty here
and damnation there; or the logical sequence of riches here
and salvation there. It was not according to my reading of the
Bible, or the teaching of Jesus in the parable of Dives and
Lazarus, as I understood the English language. It may have
been a defect in my power of analogy, but if so I held to the
delusion.
It was one evening, when on my way to visit some of these
uncared-for people, that the great change overtook me. I was
walking along a crowded footpath, engaged in the
contemplation of the lights and shadows visible on the faces
of passers-by, when I heard a scream, and saw a child in
deadly peril among the horses in the road. He was not far
away, so bounding forward - with no thought but for his safety
- I reached and dragged him from his hazardous position, then
turned, and… Something touched me. I clasped the boy more
firmly and stepped forward.
The noise ceased, vehicles and street faded away, as if some
great magician had waved his wand, the darkness disappeared,
and I was lying upon a grassy slope in an enchanted land.
Neither did all the changes lie in our surroundings. Few people
would have been enamoured of the ragged child I rushed to
save, with his shoeless feet, matted hair, and unwashed face;
but the angel I found lying upon my breast would have driven
an artist into raptures.
For myself, in that instant, I had changed my morning suit for
a loosely flowing robe which somehow seemed to be a part of
myself; and though I was fully assured of my own
individuality.
I was curious to know what had taken place, and by what
means, in the interval of one solitary step, a transformation of
such completeness had been effected.
The lad, though evidently conscious of the alteration, looked
into my face with calm laughing eyes, void of any trace of fear;
perhaps he expected me to give some explanation, but I
needed that myself. Then he buried his head in my shoulder
and fell asleep. I sat and nursed him, trying to answer the only
question which occupied my mind – “Where are we?”
I was reclining upon the grass of what can only be described
as the auditorium of an immense but natural amphitheatre,
with the arena occupied by a multitude who appeared to be
engaged in the reception of strangers, whom they were
welcoming and congratulating.
If only I could have understood it, the scene would have been
as pleasing as it was brilliant, but, under the circumstances,
my feelings were more of curiosity than of appreciation.
It resembled the performance of an elaborate tableau of which
I held no descriptive programme, being alike ignorant of the
place, the players and the purpose. This was all that I could
understand: - There were two classes of persons represented -
the one, evidently residents, attired in garments embracing
almost every shade of colour with which I was familiar, and
some the like of which I had never seen before, and therefore
have no means to make you understand.
The other, by far the smaller of the two, gave me the idea of
strangers, who, having just arrived, stood in need of the help
and assistance so freely proffered. Where did they come from,
I asked myself?
To this I was enabled to find a somewhat satisfactory reply.
Before me lay a plain, across which numbers were continually
coming and going; at its further side I saw a heavy bank of fog
lying, the outlinesof which were boldly portrayed as if
confined within certain limitations. The atmosphere was so
unusually clear, that although the fog was perhaps some two
miles distant from where I lay, I could easily discern that they
entered the plain from that direction.
I now became intensely interested in something which baffled
my powers to determine whether it was real or an optical
illusion. I noticed that the variegated colour of the dresses
worn bythose who went from us towards the mists gradually
faded, until in the distance but one uniform tone of grey was
visible; on the contrary, as they, returned the original hues
were as mysteriously restored. It seemed to me, at length, as if
some magical influence was exerted by that vapour or that the
plain was one which might legitimately, be called enchanted.
The moment I saw the fog I was conscious of a cold chill
running through me, not due to any change of temperature,
which was warm and genial, but such as one experiences at the
thought of leaving a cosy fire to become enveloped in the
piercing mist of autumn or early winter.
What caused this is more than I can say - perhaps it was
sympathy with those I saw emerging from such surroundings;
for many were so overcome they scarcely had the strength to
reach the open plain; while for some the watchers plunged
into the mists and carried them through; others being borne
all the way across the plain before they had the power to stand
upon their feet.
How long I was thus employed I cannot tell, but suddenly my
attention was attracted to someone standing beside me and I
arose, for the first time becoming aware that the slope
whereon I had been sitting was occupied by many, evidently
strangers, like myself.
This, however, did not interest me so much just then as it
would previously have done; all my mind being centred upon
the person who stood beside me, in the hope that he would be
able to solve the problem so perplexing to me.”

Project Details
Millions of words could be
written to explain why we are
doing this project - but is
that really necessary?
The modern vision of death
and the afterlife - despite
thousands proving it wrong -
still is one of uncertainty, for
some even fear and despair.
Robert James Lees, noted spiritist of his time, wrote down messages and
entire books, which were given to him from the realm some of us call
“Heaven”. His descriptions are clear, his explanations logical, and his
message one of trust and joy - giving positive meaning to our lives and
the great beyond.
So vibrant and powerful are his messages, that sitting on a cloud playing
the harp seems dull in comparison. ;)
Yet very few people seem to be listening.
Thus we have made it our goal to produce audio versions (and hopefully
more) of some of his work and make them available and accessible to a
much wider audience - free of any cost to the consumer.
Our goal is clear: Reform the general view of “death” and the afterlife,
make way for a positive vision of why we are here, and what change we
are going through when we depart.
For this, we ask your support. Spread the word, join us, support us. For
only together, we will shape a better world.
