Following his graduation from Ohio State University and earning his degree in Engineering Physics, Dr. Turner continued onto graduate school. About three years into his graduate studies, Dr. Turner received a book on Edgar Cayce called The Sleeping Prophet. The book changed Dr. Turner’s life, and he became excited about the existence of a spiritual world. Dr. Turner then decided to attend Ohio State University College of Medicine where he earned his M.D.

During his career as a surgeon, Dr. Turnerʹs curiosity about the spiritual world prompted him to examine several nontraditional healing modalities that broadened the scope of his patients’ recovery; healing modalities that include the use of Johrei (a Japanese healing art), chanting, meditation, soul travel, astral projection, and precognition/remote viewing. Medicine, Miracles, and Manifestations is a work that examines how metaphysical events like telepathy, remote viewing, and life after death are verifiable manifestations and are events that occur when the human brain interfaces with the universal consciousness.

This evening, Dr. Turner will be joining us for a special 90 minute airing from 6 PM to 7:30 PM ET.

Robert Bauval was born in Alexandria Egypt and later travelled to England to pursue his education in Building Construction and Management at the University of the South Bank in London. In 1989, Bauval published a study which argued that the layout of the three Giza Pyramids and their relative position to the Nile was intended to replicate the layout of the three stars in Orion’s belt and their relative position to the Milky Way. The thesis is known as the Orion Correlation Theory and is the subject of Bauval’s first book: The Orion Mystery, which has been translated into more than twenty languages and has been highlighted on the BBC, ABC, the Discovery Channel, and others.
