A Light That Still Shines

Autobiography of

Justin Bodhi

A Bright Soul on a Sacred Journey

Many have talked about Justin Bodhi as an advanced soul who came to Earth to help humanity. From a young age, he carried a radiant light and had insight and wisdom far beyond his years. Justin was extraordinary—a child whose presence uplifted everyone around him. By the age of fifteen, he had already become a Taekwondo teacher and state champion, known for his humble, sweet, and gentle nature. He was highly creative and joyful.  Friends described him as “holy,” and his teachers often said he had “a magic about him.”

Discovering His True Self

At just thirteen, Justin began writing about his life—reflecting on what it meant to grow up outside of a toxic system and within a loving family. He shared his journey from Montessori education to public school, and finally to homeschooling, where he found the freedom to truly be himself. From 2018 to 2023, Justin’s homeschooling years became a time of deep discovery and adventure. As part of his studies, he wrote an autobiography, a heartfelt project created with the loving guidance of his mother and writing tutor. 

 

The Awareness of a Short but Meaningful Life​

In the months before his passing, Justin and his parents began to sense that death was approaching. Through dreams and quiet intuitions, the inevitable fate was becoming conscious. Justin himself was becoming aware and after his transition, his parents discovered writings, artwork, and messages that revealed Justin had long felt a connection to his mortality. Through his stories, art, and poetry, it became clear that Justin's soul knew his time on Earth would be brief.

Signs from the Afterlife

of Justin Bodhi

After Justin Bodhi’s passing, countless signs began to appear—each one a reminder that love endures beyond this world.

Whenever his mother, Melanie Ryan, felt sorrow, something extraordinary would happen: a sign would appear in the most magical and unmistakable way, assuring her that Justin was still with her. These moments of connection extended to his father, his friends, and many who loved him, offering comfort and proof that we never truly die.

I AM HERE, Signs from the Afterlife of Justin Bodhi is a record of the miracles, synchronicities, and messages that Melanie has experienced and documented since her son’s transition. His story reminds us that our loved ones remain near, that there is no need to fear death, and that we can continue to nurture a new kind of relationship with those who have crossed over.
