The Kamlak Center


We confront the limitations of the old worldview-the belief that there is nothing but matter, and death is the end of everything we have ever loved and valued. We embrace the new worldview that there is nothing but Life, that birth and death are events in time and space, and that grief is a process that can open us to this new consciousness.

University of Arizona - The Veritas Research Program

As of January of 2008, the post-doctoral fellowship position of VERITAS Research Program Co-Director Julie Beischel, PhD, is completed. Dr. Beischel continues to perform survival and mediumship research as well as medium certification at the Windbridge Institute for Applied Research in Human Potential. Directed by Dr. Beischel, the Windbridge Institute will have more freedom and flexibility in the direction and scope of research than is possible within the University system.

In January of 2008, the VERITAS Research Program, as it existed prior to 2008, was closed and the research was expanded into a broader, more comprehensive, spiritual communication project named the SOPHIA Research Program. In June, 2006, funding was obtained to create the SOPHIA Research Program, directed by Dr. Gary Schwartz.
