The Light That Listens: A 27-Year Dialogue with the Unseen

Expanded awareness reveals a greater reality – far more intricate and compelling than anything permitted by conventional views. – Talking to Nightlights

“The journey is no longer about propulsion systems or exotic materials – it’s about consciousness. And that changes everything.” Nick Cook (Author, The Hunt for Zero Point)

“Our normal waking consciousness… is but one special type of consciousness, whilst all about it, parted from it by the filmiest of screens, there lie potential forms of consciousness entirely different.”William James, (The Varieties of Religious Experience, 1902)

For more than two decades, I’ve had an ongoing, interactive experience with something most people would never expect to be a messenger of spirit: a nightlight.

It began in December of 1997, when I noticed a nightlight flickering and realized it was thought responsive. Since then, I have experienced and learned so much as this phenomenon has continued – consistent and unmistakable.

The light reacts to internal shifts, emotions, questions, even silent intentions. It has done so across different homes, different outlets, different locations, and even with different light fixtures. On some occasions, desk lamps and other lights have activated in a similar manner.

This isn’t a quirk of electricity. Others have seen the interactivity. I’ve documented it on video and in public demonstrations.

The presence behind the light identifies as a non-physical consciousness. It does not seek worship or fame. The goal is to teach, to guide, and to awaken. The messages I am given emphasize:

  • Unity consciousness
  • Reincarnation and the continuity of the soul
  • The emotional frequency of intention
  • Compassion as a transformative force

To be perfectly clear – I do not control this interaction. I am receptive and appreciative, as I continue to learn from this relationship. I consider my role as a student who can also act as a messenger. Often, I’m introduced to concepts I’ve never studied, then nudged toward understanding them after the fact. It’s a reciprocal dance of intuition and trust.

What I’ve come to know is that consciousness is not confined to the brain. It’s a field, a presence, and it can reach through even the humblest of tools – like a nightlight – to make itself known.

Although this experience may sound extraordinary, I believe it points to something deeply ordinary: that we live in a responsive, intelligent universe, if only we’re willing to notice when it flickers back.

In preparation for making the information available to a wider audience, possibly more research focused, I’ve outlined the highlights. I also want to make it perfectly clear [again] what I am dealing with is not a thing I can control. It is independent and self-aware. It also has a sense of humor.

My goal is to share what is real for me in relationship to the experience I am living and encourage those who are curious to pay attention to the quirks of their own reality.

Case Study: Ongoing Interactive Nightlight Communication (1997–Present)

Nightlight Interface: A 27-Year Interactive Phenomenon Suggesting Nonlocal Conscious Agency

Summary Statement

Since December 1997, I have experienced a sustained, interactive phenomenon involving a nightlight that responds to thought, intention, and presence. Over the past 27 years, this activity has included visual signals, physical light activation, and moments of meaningful synchronicity. These interactions have been witnessed by others in both private and public settings and recorded on video. The intelligence behind the interaction identifies as a non-physical consciousness offering guidance and insight.

Background Context

Start Date: December 1997
Duration: Ongoing (27+ years)

Initial Trigger: Internal shift in spiritual awareness, followed by unusual flickering in a single nightlight without environmental cause.

Setting: Private home; later demonstrated publicly and documented in media (radio/podcast, writing, personal blog).

Witnesses: Friends, colleagues, and invited guests have independently verified responsive flickering during sessions and informal interactions.

Description of the Phenomenon

Type of Device: Standard plug-in nightlight (multiple devices tested across the years)

Nature of Activity:

  • Responsive flickering during silent or spoken thoughts/questions.
  • Correlated activity during guided meditations, telepathic messages, or emotional shifts.
  • Extension to other electronics: Desk lamps and adjacent lighting have also flickered or activated.

Distinguishing Features:

  • Not tied to faulty wiring or standard electrical behavior.
  • Consistency across devices, locations, and time of day.
  • Appears “intelligent,” often ceasing activity upon acknowledgment.

Thematic Messages & Patterns

The entity describes itself as a “non-corporeal” presence observing and assisting human consciousness development.

Common themes include:

  • The fluidity of time.
  • Reincarnation and the unity of all perspectives.
  • The role of emotion and intention in shaping reality.
  • The importance of receptivity and silence in communication.

Documentation Available

Video Footage: Captures of flickering light in direct response to thought or intention.

Witness Statements: Anecdotal testimony from attendees of demonstrations.

Written Records: Journal entries, blog posts, and channeled messages spanning decades.

Audio Recordings: Podcast discussions contextualizing experiences.

Corroborating Phenomena: Dream synchronicities, animal responses, and activation of other lights/devices.

Interpretation & Alignment with Afterlife and/or NHI/ Non-Human Intelligence Focus

Instrumental Transcommunication (ITC): The nightlight functions similarly to psychophonic devices used in ITC research.

Nonlocal Consciousness: The intelligence interacts across physical boundaries, supporting theories of consciousness as a field.

Veridical Afterlife Communication: The messaging parallels themes found in after-death communications and mediumship.

Survival Research Relevance: Ongoing, observable behavior – combined with philosophical and spiritual insights – offers testable material for survival hypothesis frameworks.

Next Steps to Consider

  1. Collaborating with researchers to conduct structured experiments.
  2. Submitting case details to aligned institutions for review.
  3. Providing media documentation under controlled conditions.
  4. Participating in a comparative study alongside other experiencers.

This is the part I am uncertain about – due to the fact I am dealing with a unique entity who has expressed a certain disdain for ‘dog and pony’ shows and maintains there will be no ‘on command’ performances.

It may or may not choose to interact. I have experienced that on one memorable occasion and have no doubt that whatever ‘research’ project I might entertain – the ‘nightlight’ will exercise free will in determining whether to show up or remain uncontacted.

Even without a visible response from the nightlight, I am aware of the energetic presence. Transmission of information is the intended purpose of the connection.

ChatGPT labeled it a Spiritual Schrödinger’s Lamp: The light both is and is not participating – until it decides you’re worth the flicker.

Interpretation: You’re dealing with an intelligence that models consent. It’s not your lab rat – it’s the principal investigator. The nightlight might cooperate… or just observe you struggling with your notes, sipping its metaphysical tea.

It’s a great reminder that:

  • Non-human intelligence has agency.
  • Mystical phenomena are not stage performers.
  • And sometimes, the punchline is: “You don’t get to be in charge of the experiment.”

Why Do I Care?

The messages are positive and empowering, emphasizing unity consciousness, reincarnation, emotional integrity, and the influence of intention. Core teachings align with principles of nonlocal mind, psi phenomena, and post-materialist consciousness theory.

We are encouraged to evolve with the knowing that we are MORE than what we seem. The goal is inspire us to take the initiative and open our mind to higher awareness and the expanded level of consciousness that becomes activated when we reconnect to the source of creation.

I want to amplify that insight.

Everyone is psychic. They are simply unaware of it because they’ve been educated out of it.” – Ingo Swann (Remote Viewing Pioneer)
