Dorothy Motto plays "Love is a Many Splendored Thing" on Technics Ensemble
for "Play Like a Band" Demonstration

[MP3] [MP4] [Other formats]

Dorothy Motto demonstrates the PLAY LIKE A BAND idea with "Love is a Many Splendored Thing" on the Technics SX-PR903 piano ensemble in 2012.... just after our Golden Buddha gig that lasted six years. Today, I get the distinct impression that she's in realtime contact with me from the other side and that she's directing me to this demo. It feels like that that's true because I've been letting her know that her playing that I'm reviewing inspires me and that this idea of play like a band was a major effort on her part. It's as if she's saying "take a look at this performance".

HE SPOKE TO THE DEAD FOR 26 YEARS! Professor’s Shocking Evidence Of the Afterlife Stunned the World

"The Soviet Scientist Who Proved the Afterlife Exists: The Shocking Evidence That Will Change Your Perspective"

Death has always been a mystery that haunts us all. What happens to our consciousness after we take our last breath? Does it simply cease to exist or is there something more beyond the realm of the living? These questions have fascinated humanity for generations, and for decades, scientists have searched for evidence that could finally provide answers. But what if I told you that a renowned Soviet scientist had dedicated 30 years of his life to uncovering irrefutable evidence of the afterlife?

Meet Professor Vsevolod Zaporozhets, a Doctor of Technical Sciences who was once a firm atheist and materialist. But after the death of his beloved wife, he found himself questioning his beliefs and set out on a journey to explore the spiritual world. What he discovered would challenge everything we thought we knew about life after death.

Zaporozhets's research was not based on mere speculation or belief, but rather on scientific methodology and over 500 séances. He delved into the mysterious realm of the afterlife and uncovered shocking revelations about what awaits us beyond the physical world.

His findings were compiled in his book "Contours of the Universe: Mysteries of Death with a Brief History of Spiritualism," which not only offers an explanation of basic spiritualistic terms but also outlines a methodology for proving the existence of the afterlife. Let's take a closer look at some of the mind-boggling discoveries made by this esteemed scientist. [spiritism]

The existence of consciousness after death

One of the most compelling pieces of evidence discovered by Zaporozhets is that consciousness does indeed continue after death. This is a concept that has long been debated, with skeptics arguing that without a functioning brain, there can be no consciousness. But Zaporozhets's research proves otherwise.

Through his communication with mediums, he received messages from the departed that confirmed their continued consciousness. This challenges the notion of death being the end, and opens up a whole new world of possibilities.

Life beyond death: a peaceful and joyful existence

According to Zaporozhets, the afterlife is a realm of peace and joy. He uncovered that there are no wars, violence, diseases, or old age in the next world. And everyone remains young and beautiful. The departed do not need to eat to sustain their existence, but fruits are abundant for those who wish to indulge.

Perhaps one of the most heartwarming discoveries was that lovers are reunited in the afterlife. If spouses did not have a strong emotional connection in their earthly life, they do not have to spend eternity together in the next world. However, those who were deeply in love during their time on earth will be reunited in death.

And for those who didn't find their soulmate in their lifetime, there is still a chance to find love in the afterlife.

Activities in the afterlife

One commonly asked question is: what do souls do in the afterlife? Zaporozhets discovered that they do not need sleep or work, but they can engage in activities if they desire. For example, his wife, who was a ballerina, continues to dance in the afterlife. This suggests that our passions and talents are still part of us even after we depart from this world.

Sorting before entering the other world

Before entering the afterlife, Zaporozhets's research suggests that there is a sorting process based on one's beliefs and actions during their lifetime. For instance, an atheist will simply cease to exist while someone of a Buddhist belief will go through reincarnation. A Christian who expects punishment for their sins will face it before joining the peaceful and joyful existence of the afterlife.

Zaporozhets's work has inspired many and challenged the beliefs of even the most skeptical minds. Through his rigorous research and documentation of messages from the departed, he has provided a glimpse into the mysterious world beyond our physical existence. His findings give hope that our consciousness lives on beyond this life and that death is not the end.

In conclusion, Professor Vsevolod Zaporozhets's groundbreaking work has shed light on one of the most debated topics in human history. His book "Contours of the Universe" is a testament to his dedication and unwavering pursuit of knowledge. It challenges us to reconsider our perspectives on life after death and opens up a world of endless possibilities. Perhaps one day, science will be able to provide irrefutable proof of the afterlife, but until then, Zaporozhets's work remains a significant milestone in the search for answers.

A Home Studio Recreation of a Typical Golden Buddha 2005-2012 Set @ 70-77
by Dorothy Motto in 2013 @78 as an online audition for new gig @ Mekong Plaza Restaurant

Mekong Plaza Restaurant here in Phoenix had a phenomenal stage for presentations by various Chinese performers during various celebrations that we were invited to by our Chinese piano students. Even though we pitched our program to the management, we did not get a regular gig but we did end up playing for their Chinese New Years celebrations. This is the online pitch I recorded of Dorothy which mirrors a typical 20 minute set at Golden Buddha Chinese Restaurant where we played for six years for seven nights a week.

Dorothy is playing on our Casio PX555R PRIVIA which was our workhorse for most of our gigs, a a unit that continue to use in the my studio today as my preferred instrument. It's a little bit heavier and awkward to move than stage pianos available later but during 2012 to 2020, it did a terrific job for us.

ADDENDUM by Rick68/2025
I've been in a state of shock but getting things done that need to get done and reviewing my 2022 and 2023 rediscovery of quantum physics through Doug Matzke's "Deep Reality" 2018, Edward W. Russel's "Design for Destiny" and "Prospect of Eternity"1972 which is perfectly consistent with Matzke. Russell cites Harold S. Burr's work & Russian research Konstantin Vasilev, both consistent with what can be summarized in this short paragraph as a higher dimension of life which I now favor over a strict reductionism that included cryonics.

I no longer thing cryonics for the human mind will work. It'll work in terms of biological structures and already does to a degre but the mind and personality are not in the brain. The brain is an antenna, of a sort, that transduces the quantum mind which is soul which is eternal in the quantum realm. Dorothy signals me daily, in my current view, via meaningful coincidences, or 'soul-winks' or synchonicities. I notate them. For now, if you're curious about life after death as I've been ever sense I can remember anything, current youtubes about near-death-experiences, shared-death-experiences and related spiritist and spiritualist ideas are exploding along with all other sorts of information. Here is a new youtube channel to me, I discovered today, that seems to be on track with where I'm at.... along with a partial transcription.

What the Soul Sees After DEATH It Will Shock You

Journey to the Other Side: What the Soul Sees After Death

Death has been a subject of fascination and fear for as long as humanity has existed. It is the great unknown, the ultimate mystery that we all must face. But what if death is not the end? What if it is just the beginning of a journey to the other side? Ancient mystics, sacred texts, and hidden traditions have all attempted to shed light on what happens to the soul after death. In this blog, we will explore the journey of the soul after it leaves the physical body, as uncovered through the lens of ancient wisdom and modern near-death experiences.

As we take our final breath, something immense happens. The body may appear lifeless, but the soul awakens. It hovers above the body, still tethered by a thin veil of consciousness. This is not a moment to be feared, but rather a moment to be embraced. It is the beginning of a sacred unraveling of ego and identity. In Tibetan and Egyptian teachings, this moment is known as "the gentle untying." The soul begins to peel back its layers, shedding its attachment to the physical form. It is not a violent experience, but rather a peaceful drifting into a state of pure awareness. As the soul drifts further from its former vessel, it begins to encounter a tunnel of light. This is not just a physical light, but rather a powerful vibration that draws the soul towards it. It is believed that this light is an invitation from something greater than ourselves – an invitation to remember who we truly are.

The soul then enters into a state of presence, where it is able to witness its entire life from an outside perspective. This process is known as the life review and it is described in detail in the Tibetan Book of Dead. In this phase, every action, thought, and feeling is experienced again through the eyes of every person the soul has ever touched. But this is not a judgment or punishment. It is an opportunity for the soul to see the impact it has had on others and to gain a deeper understanding of its own journey. It is also during this time that the soul makes its first choice – to return to Earth or to transcend. If the soul chooses to return, it goes through a process of disintegration of ego and identity. This is the final test of surrender – letting go of all attachments and entering into the realm of echoes. This is where the soul faces its shadow, its deepest fears and struggles, and ultimately finds peace and forgiveness.

For those souls who have completed their earthly journey, they begin their ascent towards the light. They enter into a state of ascension, where they merge with their Oversoul – an eternal consciousness that holds all their experiences and memories. In this state, there is no judgment or punishment, only love and understanding. The journey comes full circle as the soul returns to Source – the infinite energy from which it originated. And for those souls who choose to return, they are armed with new knowledge and understanding to guide others on their own journeys. The journey after death is not a solitary one. It is intertwined with the journeys of all those we have encountered in our lives. We are all connected through the tapestry of existence, and death is merely a doorway to a deeper understanding of this interconnectedness.

So what really happens after death? Through ancient teachings and modern experiences, we can begin to piece together a story that is far more beautiful and profound than anything we could have imagined. Death is not the end – it is merely a transition from one form to another. And in this transition, we are reminded that we are all on this journey together, bound by love and connected through eternity.
