In 1974, Philip K. Dick said a pink light beam warned him his infant son had a life-threatening hernia. Doctors confirmed it; surgery saved the boy's life. Dick spent decades documenting these transmissions from what he called VALIS in an 8,000-page journal, eventually concluding it was his own higher self communicating across time.

The year is 1974. Science fiction author Philip K. Dick has been receiving what he describes as transmissions from a higher intelligence for months. He calls the source VALIS, an acronym for Vast Active Living Intelligence System. One afternoon, Dick is overwhelmed by what he later described as a beam of pink light entering his mind. The beam tells him that his infant son Christopher has an undiagnosed hernia that is about to become life-threatening. Dick rushes his son to the hospital. Doctors initially dismiss his concern. Dick insists, as examination reveals an inguinal hernia that was indeed about to strangulate. The surgery saves the child's life. The attending physician admitted on record that had Dick delayed the visit by a day, His son would have died. Dick spent the rest of his life trying to understand the source of what had contacted him. His 8,000-page private journal, published after his death as The Exegesis, documents his search. At the end, he arrived at a conclusion that resonates with every case we've examined. The intelligence was his own higher self speaking across time. 7 centuries of evidence. Thousands of documented cases, letters written before events unfolded, dreams logged in journals, newspaper archives preserved, court testimony entered into the record, university laboratories producing replicable results.
