Brazilian researcher Sonia Rinaldi has a Mastership Degree in Sciences of Religion. She is an author, lecturer, and internationally recognized as one of the foremost researchers of Instrumental TransCommunications (ITC).

Sonia is the author of 11 books. Some of her books include CDs with paranormal voices. The most recent books are in digital format (e-books) so the reader can listen to audios and see images and video showing the phenomena live. Her group of researchers contains engineers, mathematicians, scientists, and physicists. She is founder and coordinator of IPATI, with over 740 volunteers. The Institute has no members because nothing is charged. The IPATI Facebook page has nearly 3,400 persons.

Sonia started researching ITC in 1988 with the Brazilian scientist Dr. Hernani Guimaraes Andrade in his institute (IBPP - Instituto Brasileiro de Pesquisas Psicobiofisicas). Sonia twice received the international Hedri Prize from the Swiss Foundation for Parapsychology, for innovative research in 1995 and 1997.

In 2000, Sonia took the research to a scientific lab working together with engineers, physicists and scientists. The results of her studies of instrumental transcommunication have been the ability to record voices from people in spirit using a telephone, with incredible voice quality. She has also developed new techniques to record transimages, which are images that appear when an opaque film is waved over a person's face or some other background. The phone calls always follow scientific control parameters. Presently she dedicates her time in improving new techniques, always focusing on the scientific aspect of the research. Her goal is to have the phenomena authenticated by scientists. Her recordings are well documented and verified by witnesses. The format she uses makes possible contact between any person and his/her deceased loved one via her station.

Mission Statement of Sonia's Institute
for Instrumental Transcommunication

Over the almost 27 years of work with the Spirit Communication, specifically in the field of ITC, we've slowly set the path, goals, and areas of research. Today it is clear that our research goal is to collect evidence of survival after death and to do so in a controlled manner so the results can stand the tests of analysis and scientific investigations. We understand that the phenomenon itself is only half the journey. If it is not authenticated, it isn't worth much. So we have two goals:

  1. Assist those who have lost a loved one, without neglecting those on the Other Side who also with their pain and longing.
  2. Add to the proofs of survival and perhaps offer a new understanding of the meaning of Life.

Phone Connections with the Afterlife

Sonia has been helping people by making phone calls to the beyond since March 2001. Most have been for parents who have lost their children. Sonia writes, "With this technology controlled by the Beyond, the call is not from the Beyond. They enter our terrestrial phone calls." Sonia has also obtained clear transimages of deceased ones. In this presentation, she explains her instrumental transcommunication work, plays some recordings of communications, and show images from loved ones who have passed away.

The parents make an appointment with Sonia in advance. She doesn't charge for her work, since the beginning she never involved money with the task of helping people. They are instructed to prepare ten questions. When they call on the appointed day, Sonia has one phone in her hand and leaves an extension phone open for those in the Spirit world to participate. The telephone is connected into the microphone jack of her computer and all conversations are recorded directly into the computer. The questions are asked leaving twenty seconds between each question and the recorded conversation lasts about twelve to fifteen minutes. The entire recording is then listened to by Sonia and the results are sent to the parents. Sometimes, the voice may be identified not only the voice itself, but also for the details and information which only the parents knew. What is remarkable about Sonia's results is the quality achieved in both the voices and the transimages.

This line of research lasted for three years. Presently Sonia records with a sophisticated setting involving a television, two telephone devices, a microphone, and a notebook. Voices are even clearer. Creativity allows her to innovate frequently, so that depending on circumstances all the setup may be reduced to a notebook only, and similar results are obtained. As she said, “The high quality depends on our Spirit Friends and less in our technology."

Example Captured Images

Below are samples of the hundreds of images of deceased people and pets Sonia has recorded. The pictures on the left are pictures taken before the person passed. The images on the right appeared on opaque sheets of varying types.
