Ray Stanford is known for his work in UFOlogy and paleontology. He has also had a career as a trance channel and psychic reader. With his identical twin brother, parapsychologist Rex Stanford, he co-authored a book about their early UFO experiences titled Look Up. He is also author of The Spirit Unto the Churches, Speak Shining Stranger, Socorro Saucer, and Fatima Prophecy.

Here he describes a sequence of events that transpired over many years that began in 1961 with a mysterious pronouncement that came through Ray while in trance. Because of this, he developed a close relationship with the renowned Guatemalan artist, Carlos Merida, who became the godfather of Ray’s three children that he might, otherwise, never have had.

New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in “parapsychology” ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is also the Grand Prize winner of the 2021 Bigelow Institute essay competition regarding the best evidence for survival of human consciousness after permanent bodily death.
