during his physical life, what he believes; he will go on after his
physical body dies.
Survival beyond physical death is not a belief system, therefore, but
a simple fact as natural as being born. There is no dogma related to
the Gateway Program—except that when you begin the session, you
should seriously consider that you are “more than your physical
body.”
It is inevitable that the borders between this and other realityenergy systems are crossed. Many of the results are reported as
reunions with “dead” friends and family as well as encounters with
other forms of intelligent energy not generally recognized or accepted
by mainstream American cultural levels.
Again, if you are aware of the basic effect of the Hemi-Sync
process, that of providing an access to many levels of consciousness
simultaneously, something far different from the usual consciousness
that we use for the most part in our daily lives, you can begin to
grasp some of the potential results.
Through the Gateway Program, we have been able to conduct tests
with the Hemi-Sync process with over 3,000 subjects over the past
ten years. With a minimum of twenty individual test/exercises per
subject participant, that comes out to 60,000-plus individual tests of
the effectiveness of the method and techniques involved. That has
been and is the basic value to us of the Gateway Program—a test base
of 60,000. At the very least, we know that we have been able to put
people to sleep 60,000 times and awaken them. That is a pretty good
statistic for product testing, especially one that is noninvasive in its
physiological impact.
Most significant is the analysis of the Gateway population—those
who have attended the sessions over the past eight years. First, 41
percent are male. This is double the norm for the typical selfawareness workshop. Most researchers agree this is due to the
scientific aspect of the Hemi-Sync process as against more esoteric
origins. Second, 29 percent are what we label professionals—
psychologists, psychiatrists, educators, scientists, engineers, etc. These
attend principally to determine possible applications in their own
