ABOUT THE EVENT


Author and award winning filmmaker Richard Martini has written and/or directed 9 films. A former free lance journalist for Variety, Inc.Com, Premiere and other magazines, Richard will talk about the findings of his extensive research for his best selling book "Flipside: A Tourist's Guide on How to Navigate the Afterlife" (#1 at Amazon in its genre twice) his debut non-fiction book on a topic that's been haunting him since the death of a soul mate, upon which his 90 minute documentary of the same name is based. The new book "It's A Wonderful Afterlife" examines near death experiences, between life sessions and includes a chapter from Robert Thurman on the "Death of Death."

After a dream vision of visiting his friend in the Great Beyond, Martini went on a literary quest to find out what the prevailing science and philosophical opinions on the Afterlife are. He journeyed into Tibetan Philosophy, made documentaries in Tibet and India,  and eventually was introduced to the work of the Newton Institute, founded by renowned author and hypnotherapist Dr. Michael Newton ("Journey of Souls"). The new book includes interviews with post materialist scientists Gary Schwartz, Bruce Greyson, Mario Beauregard and examines a number of NDE's and LBLs that have remarkably similar stories about the afterlife.

Martini’s first documentary "Special Olympians" won the Mexico City International Film Festival. He then made his feature film directorial debut "You Can't Hurry Love,”with Bridget Fonda. He wrote and/or directed "Limit Up," "Point of Betrayal" "My Bollywood Bride" and "Cannes Man." He worked on the films "Amelia" and "Salt" as a digital media curator, pioneering a method of previsualizing a film online, film director Phillip Noyce hired him to work on both films.  

He's also directed documentaries; "Tibetan Refugee"explores the Tibetan community in Dharamsala, "White City/Windy City" explores the relationship between Chicago and Casablanca in the Eisenhower "Sister Cities" program, and "Journey Into Tibet", follows Buddhist scholar and author Robert Thurman on a sacred journey around Mt. Kailash in Western Tibet. COPIES OF THE BOOK AND 90 MINUTE DOCUMENTARY "FLIPSIDE" WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE.

Created by Rich Martini on September 20, 2013

Need your help to get these two books into the world.  There are two volumes, first one includes interviews with Gary Schwartz PhD (The Sacred Promise) Dr. Bruce Greyson (UVA) Prof. Robert Thurman, (TibetHouse.US) and analysis of near death experiences (Dr. Eben Alexander, David Bennett, Jeremy Kagan, Colton Burpo and others) out of body experiences, and transcripts of between life sessions where thousands say the same things about the afterlife.  The hypnosis technique was pioneered by Michael Newton, and the books include Interviews with Newton trained Hypnotherapists Scott De Tamble, Chaplain Savarna Wiley and President of the Newton Institute Pete Smith. Volume one is more science oriented (the nature of consciousness) while volume two leans to discussions with people reported from the afterlife (Galen Stoller, Erik Medhus and others). I've been invited to speak at Tibet House in NYC and need some help to get there (and back!). If you're in the neighborhood the book talk "It's a Wonderful Afterlife" is FREE on Aug 8th from 7-9 pm - you need to go to TibetHouse.US to register (free) http://tibethouse.us/programs/full-calendar/view/706604/114 - it promises to be an unusual and entertaining evening talking about something that should be on everyone's mind - the science of the afterlife.

If you can make any donation, it's much appreciated, and guarantees your name in the book - and there are other items for various price points - but it's really about getting me to the finish line.  So thank you if you have donated, and if you can donate, please do!




The new cover. Nice, huh?
