When Worlds Overlap: Telepathy, Heaven, and the Boundaries of Our Reality
For decades, parents of non-speaking individuals have claimed that their children have the capacity to read minds, foretell events, and even perceive realms that transcend what we call “the physical world.” While mainstream science has been slow—or outright reluctant—to validate these phenomena, a growing number of families, teachers, and therapists are encountering experiences that defy typical explanations.

In Episode 9 of The Telepathy Tapes, host Kai Dickens weaves together two deeply profound stories. They involve non-speaking individuals who have seemingly tapped into knowledge beyond Earthly confines—some call it Heaven or the Realms, while others describe it simply as “the place they go when they sleep.” These accounts stir questions about life after death, the nature of time, and whether telepathy is merely “the tip of the iceberg” of a broader array of spiritual or “psi” abilities. Perhaps most strikingly, the stories show how the death of a loved one, especially a young non-speaker named John Paul, can be a passage that reveals unexpected links between earthly and “heavenly” spheres.
Why should you pay attention? Because if the families in this episode are right—if our reality overlaps with unseen realms that non-speakers can access—then we might be on the brink of rethinking everything we take for granted about consciousness, time, and our place in the cosmos. Whether you’re a skeptic, a curious listener, or deeply spiritual yourself, these accounts challenge us to expand our worldview.

From Mind-Reading to Messages Beyond Earth
The Mystery of Non-Speakers’ Spiritual Gifts
Over the previous episodes, we’ve seen that many non-speaking individuals (often diagnosed with autism) demonstrate telepathy—mind-to-mind communication that transcends distance. Yet families report that telepathy isn’t the only phenomenon; many children describe “going somewhere” or “seeing Heaven” in dreams or quiet moments. They type or spell profound messages about angels, departed souls, and entire classrooms of knowledge “beyond the veil.”
Episode 9 dives deeper. It opens with a simple question: If mind-to-mind contact is possible across continents, could it reach further—across dimensions or even from the afterlife? Two stories take center stage.
A Series of “Impossible” Insights in Minnesota and Louisiana
T and Josiah: Beyond Simple Telepathy
The first story belongs to T, a mother from Minnesota. Her son Josiah began spelling at seven. Like many parents, T expected him to type basic words or short sentences. Instead, he typed his first sentence:
“God is a good gift-giver.”
This seemingly innocuous statement heralded an explosion of spiritual and prophetic messages. Josiah spoke of angels, described places and events he’d never witnessed, and wrote with poetic language that far exceeded a typical seven-year-old’s vocabulary. From day one, his typed communication addressed deep spiritual themes, leaving T stunned. As she puts it:
“He would write in proverbs and poetry…some of the highest language I’ve ever read.”
But the real shock came when Josiah started offering intricate messages for total strangers, including a man named Max living in Louisiana—someone T had never met. Over the next five years, Josiah dictated 23 pages’ worth of insights about Max’s private life, from the noise of construction at his house (“popping, popping, popping”) to details of his farmland (“Are you a barn man?”). Though Max initially dismissed it as nonsense, he became convinced when Josiah typed references to specific prayer sessions Max held in remote woods and solitary motel rooms—events no one else knew about. In one instance:
- Max prayed alone in the woods, seeking direction.
- Next day, T relayed a typed message: “He heard your prayers, in the wood last night…”
Time after time, Josiah’s knowledge was too direct and intimate to be guesswork or mind-reading from T. Max calls it God working through Josiah—proof that spiritual connections can transcend hundreds of miles.
Opening a Door to the “Bigger Reality”
For T, the revelations were life-changing. She’d previously assumed Josiah’s “spiritual talk” was a personal quirk. Now she saw consistent patterns of advanced cognition and detailed messages about people, places, and events that neither Josiah nor T herself could have learned by typical means.
Josiah eventually revealed that he doesn’t simply “read minds.” Instead, he frequently references “the place in the skies”—a realm he visits for knowledge. This extends the notion that telepathy might just be one facet of a broader spiritual or “savant-like” capacity, echoing the theories introduced by neuroscientist Dr. Diane Powell in earlier episodes.
A Life Well Lived: The Passing of John Paul
The Gentle Giant of Atlanta
Our second story focuses on John Paul—a 6’8″ non-speaker in Atlanta, introduced in Episode 4. He spelled out advanced poetry, communicated telepathically with his mother Libby, and regularly visited a mental “chat room” known as the Hill, where non-speakers gather telepathically.
John Paul’s friends included Houston and Lily, who share his telepathic gifts. The trio often hung out in real life or on the Hill, talking about everything from everyday teen interests to spiritual matters. While John Paul had a robust spiritual side, he still navigated typical teenage joys, like joking around in the hot tub.
The Day Everything Changed
On a sunny, seemingly perfect day in September 2023, John Paul decided to sit in the hot tub while his mother took a nap. Something went horribly wrong—John Paul seized and ended up face down in the water, unable to move. By the time Libby discovered him, he was unresponsive. Despite frantic attempts to save him, John Paul died that afternoon.
The shock sent waves through their entire community. Lily—his girlfriend—felt a deep chill. Houston spontaneously typed that John Paul was now “finally free” and “in the presence of God,” even though Katie, Houston’s mom, had not informed him of the tragedy.
But the story doesn’t end there.
Messages from the Other Side
A String of Synchronicities and “Goodbyes”
In the days leading up to his death, John Paul apparently said goodbye on the Hill. As soon as the news spread, parents of non-speakers across the country reported that their children typed messages about John Paul’s departure—before they themselves had learned of it. Friends like Noah spelled:
“He told me he had to leave, that the world couldn’t sustain him anymore.”
Lily typed that John Paul was still with her in “energy form,” offering comfort. Another speller, Zahari, said John Paul was “completely integrated into my energy, like never before.” The repeated messages comforted Libby, reinforcing the sense that John Paul’s presence was bigger and freer than ever.
Becky’s Revelation: A Near-Death Survivor Sees John Paul
Enter Becky, a wounded combat veteran with a near-death experience. She had “died” for several minutes during brain surgery and came back with the ability to see individuals “between dimensions.” She told journalist Jay Watson that, in the days before John Paul’s death, she kept glimpsing a “giant boy” accompanied by her deceased relative—who had his pocket watch out, signaling “it’s almost time.” Becky had no prior knowledge of John Paul, yet recognized him the moment she heard Libby’s story.
To Becky, John Paul conveyed that he passed peacefully, free of pain, and that the life he left behind was no longer big enough to hold his mission. She described, in detail, how he had quietly told everyone farewell, including the angels in his final moments. The synergy of Becky’s account with the non-speakers’ messages sparked awe. For Libby, the reassurance that John Paul thrived in another realm, building a new life, proved deeply healing.
Heaven, The Hill, and the Realms
Are They All the Same Place?
Throughout the series, we’ve heard non-speakers mention “Heaven,” “the Hill,” “the Realms,” or “the library”—a dimension where they absorb knowledge, reconnect with loved ones, or gather telepathically. Some, like Amelia (Episode 7), say they meet spiritual guides, angels, or even “God.” Others, like Asher in England, define it as “the Realms,” describing a cosmic library with infinite knowledge.
So the question arises: Are all these references to one vast place with different vantage points, or are they distinct layers? Jess, Asher’s teacher, shares that Asher describes “the Realms” as a place to retrieve information on any subject ever known—like the famed “Akashic Records” of Eastern mysticism. Meanwhile, Houston calls it “Heaven’s School,” replete with hats representing entire bodies of literature.
The Non-Speakers’ Expansive View of Time
Josiah uses the metaphor of “open visions,” “closed visions,” and “dream downloads.” Another speller, Asher, insists all time is simultaneous—past, present, and future exist at once. Non-speakers observe that angels or spiritual beings “open windows” or “allow glimpses” of future events. This perspective resonates with theories proposed by physicists who argue time is non-linear, that we experience “slices” of reality one by one, but they all exist simultaneously.
The Comfort of Knowing: How These Beliefs Shape Lives
Healing Amid Grief
John Paul’s death illustrates how these spiritual frames of reference offer profound solace. Where typical Western grief might focus on finality, John Paul’s network of family and spellers see him as evolving—continuing to build a house and greet children in Heaven, hugging his mother “through” another friend’s body. Lily declares her beloved is “in energy form, ever with me.”
For parents, this perspective transforms despair into acceptance and even cautious joy. Libby, though still mourning daily, says the illusions of material reality have melted away. “We’re not bodies with souls,” she often repeats. “We’re souls inhabiting bodies.”
Expanded Empathy and Priorities
Parents like T, Katie, and Libby recount that once they trust their child’s bigger worldview, their own perspectives shift radically. Day-to-day annoyances fade; deeper questions of love, purpose, and contribution take center stage. For instance, Katie has worked to spread the word that non-speakers can be “prophets of love,” bridging hearts across physical and spiritual divides.
Another father, Max, credits his life-changing growth to Josiah. Initially cynical, he realized each spelled message about his life came accompanied by an astonishing level of empathy and relevance. Instead of focusing on whether telepathy is “real,” he leans into the message: “Make your whole life about love.”
Analysis and Elaboration
Paradigm Shifts, From Simulation Theory to Spiritual Realms
Dr. Diane Powell on Simulation Theory
In Episode 6, neuroscientist Dr. Diane Powell proposed that the entire physical world might be a “simulation” or “informational field.” She reappears here, expanding on how non-speakers with telepathy or clairvoyance seem “less immersed” in the simulation—allowing them glimpses of a more fundamental reality. Philosophically, this aligns with advanced theories in physics (like the “holographic universe” or “virtual reality” model), as well as mystical traditions that speak of maya (illusion).
Yet even if “simulation” is used metaphorically, parents find it resonates with their children’s descriptions of “Heaven as the real place, Earth as partial.” In effect, the more spiritual vantage point suggests our everyday existence is limited—like Mario in a 2D game—compared to the boundless 3D or 4D world beyond.
Religious, Scientific, and Cross-Cultural Overlaps
Non-speakers hail from various faiths and backgrounds—Christian, Jewish, agnostic—yet their messages share common motifs: timelessness, continual learning, unity of souls, and a sense that “love is the final measure.” Lily’s statement, “God’s love unites all faith traditions,” resonates with universalist ideals found in mysticism worldwide. Meanwhile, an Army veteran like Becky, who survived a near-fatal brain injury, experiences cross-dimensional “visits” reminiscent of shamanic or mediumistic encounters documented cross-culturally.
Such parallels underscore the possibility that the “new paradigm” the children speak of might unify science and spirituality. These phenomena challenge materialism and invite an open-minded approach to what consciousness can achieve.
Telepathy, Death, and the Power of Shared Experience
Validating One Another’s Testimonies
Crucial to these stories is the synergy among multiple witnesses. Becky, who had no link to John Paul, described seeing him in the days before his death—a vision confirmed by the friend’s account that John Paul was indeed “telling people goodbye.” Meanwhile, Josiah and Max share proof-laden episodes (e.g., knowledge of secret prayer sessions, building-site noises) that anchor intangible experiences in measurable reality.
Among non-speakers themselves, the phenomenon of the Hill—a telepathic chat room—verifies how they share communal gatherings across space and even beyond “time.” Everyone in that circle knows John Paul “left Earth” days in advance, which lines up with Becky’s near-death vantage point.
Grief as a Portal to Mystery
One might argue that these experiences could be by-products of grief—wishful illusions to cope with loss. However, the specificity and synchronicity of details challenge that explanation. Lily, Noah, and Zahari typed consistent statements about John Paul’s post-life activities without conferring with each other. Becky’s immaculate recall of John Paul’s final day, including the “brown wooden cabin” she couldn’t have known about, further complicates the “coincidence” narrative.
Conclusion
Key Takeaways from Episode 9
- Telepathy Across Dimensions?
- If telepathy can span continents, can it also bridge the afterlife? Families of non-speakers say “yes,” citing tangible examples where their children gain knowledge from or about souls beyond Earthly confines.
- Heaven, The Hill, and the Realms
- Different terms describe a place of spiritual knowledge or congregation. Whether it’s Heaven, a cosmic library, or simply “the Realms,” non-speakers depict it as more “real” and “spacious” than Earth’s illusions.
- Comfort in Times of Loss
- The tragic death of 17-year-old John Paul reveals how these spiritual insights can ease grief. Even in sorrow, families find solace in typed messages indicating that love and communication persist beyond bodily limits.
- Evidence Over Coincidence
- Repeatedly, families record cross-verification between non-speakers’ typed statements and real events or hidden information. Messages from strangers (like Becky) align with the children’s accounts, hinting at a phenomenon beyond mere imagination.
- Impact on Belief Systems
- Such experiences challenge the “materialist paradigm.” Parents often shift to postmaterialist or spiritual worldviews, concluding their children’s telepathy, clairvoyance, and knowledge of the afterlife must be taken seriously.
Final Thought: A Call to Open Hearts
Throughout The Telepathy Tapes, one central theme emerges: non-speaking individuals often show us that love, empathy, and consciousness are far deeper than our usual frames allow. They upend assumptions about physical boundaries and even mortality. John Paul’s passing, while heartbreaking, stands as a testament that perhaps we never truly say goodbye—we simply transform, continuing our learning and connections in realms unseen.
What can you do with these stories?
- Reflect: Consider that telepathy, far from being a fleeting novelty, might be embedded in a grander tapestry of spiritual possibilities.
- Support: If you know a non-speaker or family exploring “beyond-limits” experiences, show openness rather than dismissal.
- Document: Parents, record details of your child’s experiences. Notice how often they share knowledge or messages you never taught them.
- Embrace Wonder: Whether you call it Heaven, the Realms, or something else, stay curious. Even scientists now propose time is not linear; consciousness may be non-local, and love might be the fundamental “language” uniting all dimensions.
These glimpses into unknown territory can unsettle or comfort us. The non-speakers, however, speak with clarity: love doesn’t end, knowledge grows eternally, and the spirit moves beyond bodily constraints. If their testimonies ring true, our next step is to trust and explore—opening both mind and heart to a universe richer than we ever dreamed.
Beyond Cancer: How Wireless Radiation May Undermine Our Cellular “Language” and Amplify Diverse Health Risks
When most people think about the health effects of wireless radiation, they focus on cancer risk. But what if that’s just a single piece of a much larger puzzle? Emerging evidence suggests that electromagnetic fields (EMFs)—including those from cellphones, Wi-Fi, and other wireless technologies—may create what you could call “low-fidelity environments” for cellular information processing.
Beyond Vaccines: Re-Examining the Rise in Neurological Disorders and the Role of EMFs
In recent years, the conversation around neurological disorders—especially autism spectrum disorder (ASD)—has taken center stage. High-profile voices, including political figures and health advocates, have debated whether vaccines are to blame for the surge in autism diagnoses. This focus on vaccines often stems from understandable parental concerns and the fear that some environmental factor could be
