For almost twenty five years, I've been 8 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,479 Speaker 1: on a journey to prove the existence of life after death. 9 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 1: On each episode will discuss the reasons we now know 10 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 1: that our loved ones have survived physical death and so 11 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:43,239 Speaker 1: will we Welcome to Shades of the Afterlife. Death is 12 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: no more than passing from one room to another. But 13 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: there's a difference for me, you know, because in that 14 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 1: other room I shall be able to see Helen Keller. 15 00:00:55,880 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: We humans share three main fears. One is the fear 16 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 1: of being alone, another is the fear of failure, and 17 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,839 Speaker 1: the last the fear of dying. One of the big 18 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,400 Speaker 1: reasons I created this podcast is so that we can 19 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: wipe fear out of our lives. One of the ways 20 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 1: to do that is to destroy the fear of dying 21 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 1: if we could see the invisible group of souls that 22 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,959 Speaker 1: constantly surround us and cheer us on, and learn to 23 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: feel what they are communicating to us, we would not 24 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: feel so alone. And if life truly is an education 25 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 1: for our soul, which I believe it is, there is 26 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 1: no such thing as failure, as everything is learning experience. 27 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: So on this episode, let's take a look at what 28 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: happens when we die. We're going to talk with the 29 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 1: author of the book The Fun of Dying what happens next. 30 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: She also wrote The Fun of Staying in Touch, How 31 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: our loved ones contact us and how we can contact them. 32 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 1: Roberta Grimes is a business attorney and a dear friend 33 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 1: of mine who has spent most of her life studying 34 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: and writing about death and the afterlife realities. She is 35 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: the author of many great books and hosts her own 36 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: radio show called Seek Reality. I first found out about 37 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 1: Roberta through the book Your Eternal Self by Dr R 38 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: Craig Hogan. One of his recommended books was the Fun 39 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: of Dying, And quite honestly, my father had just died 40 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:37,119 Speaker 1: and the title really angered me, and I felt compelled 41 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: to order this book. Both books did bring me a 42 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: lot of comfort, and I want to share with you 43 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 1: a conversation I had with Roberta about the dying process 44 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 1: from a spiritual point of view. If you listen to 45 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: our last show, we met a deep trance medium who 46 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: can bring through messages from the afterlife. We have a 47 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:04,519 Speaker 1: great of original data about the afterlife. Most of it 48 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: was received through deep trans mediums, and it came in 49 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: the late very end of the nineteenth century and about 50 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: the first forty years of the twentieth century. So I 51 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,639 Speaker 1: spent a long time just reading every book I could 52 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: find that and there are quite a few that were 53 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: put together about these um these communications. Most of them 54 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: were just communications to people who were grieving and you know, 55 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: Mom or Dad or someone here back. But the difference 56 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: is with a deep trans medium, the medium has withdrawn 57 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: from her body, and her control is talking, and her 58 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: control is is has people right next to him or 59 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: her that are your loved ones. So there's the what 60 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: they say to us is much more detailed. And I 61 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: figured I would start to see some similarities among these 62 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: and I'd be able to sort of construct some notion 63 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 1: about what it's like where they are. But what's still 64 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: astonishes me and to me is one of the two 65 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: best um pieces of evidence that this is real is 66 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,839 Speaker 1: the fact that when you read hundreds of them, they 67 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: all are talking about the same place. I never found 68 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: an outlier. Always the same physics, the same process, the 69 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: same pastimes, the same geography, the same everything. And that's 70 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: not possible that I mean somewhere were received in Great Britain, 71 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: some were received in the United States, or even if 72 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 1: you from other places, they all went to the same place. Sandrad, 73 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: that's not possible if it's not real, I agree. So 74 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: let me ask you what happens in the dying process 75 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: for most people, Roberta. As you know, there's a lot 76 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 1: of fear, a lot of things left undone or unsaid, 77 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: and we are scared of dying. Could you walk us 78 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,679 Speaker 1: through what happens when we close our eyes the last 79 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 1: time here on earth and what we will find when 80 00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 1: we open them in the afterlife. Well, it's actually all 81 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: the fears that people have here are instilled in them 82 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 1: by our culture. They either come from science, which says 83 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: you're going to blink out like a light, or they 84 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: come from religions which teach you that unless you happen 85 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: to thread the right needle, you're going to go to hell. 86 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: So all of the fears that we have are instilled 87 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,679 Speaker 1: by our cultural institutions. And when we when we educate 88 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 1: ourselves as you and I have about what actually goes on, 89 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,919 Speaker 1: the fear of death disappears. It's not natural. And not 90 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: only that fear disappears, but so does every other fear. 91 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: So if people are wondering whether they should bother to 92 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: look into all of this, that the biggest reason to 93 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: do it is that it takes away all fear. It 94 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: transforms your life for the better in ways that it's 95 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: hard for me even to describe. But here we are, 96 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 1: we're approaching death um where where the sort of between 97 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 1: twenty four hours and and maybe thirty six hours before death, 98 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: there's usually a burst of energy. We wake up, we 99 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 1: talk to people, We seem much more normal. It sounds 100 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: seems like we're getting better. That's a sign that we 101 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: are in the last stages of death. We are we're 102 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 1: in our deathbed. We may be surrounded by loved ones 103 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: sometime in the period. Usually it's within twenty four hours, 104 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: but sometimes it's only a few hours before we actually 105 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: leave our bodies. We start to see people in the 106 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: room that we used to think we're dead. They usually 107 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: appear in the upper corners of the room, and they 108 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: look young, they look healthy and happy, and it could 109 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: be one person or even one pet, or it could 110 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 1: be a crowd. It's very individual. Whatever is going to 111 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: be best for you is what your guides make sure 112 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: that you have. In terms of deathbed visitors, usually the 113 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 1: people around the bed will notice that we stopped communicating 114 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: with them because usually we don't even tell them what 115 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: we see. Once in a while we do, or once 116 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 1: in a while we have hints, such as Steve Jobs 117 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,599 Speaker 1: saying oh wow three times suddenly, just as he was 118 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: very close to death, and then he never spoke to 119 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: his family again. Those were his last words. So the 120 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: minute you see your mom looking young and healthy, or 121 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: your cat that you had in childhood, or whoever comes, 122 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: you know you're going to be fine. So any residual 123 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: uneasy eating this you had just disappears and you feel happy, 124 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: but you're still enclosed in this boat anchor basically this 125 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: dying body, and you need to get out of it. 126 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 1: So what happens is where we're built like a matroika doll, 127 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 1: energy nested energy bodies the outer body or a couple 128 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: of bodies are going to stay. The physical body is staying. 129 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: And I think also that what we think of as 130 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: the aura, which is an energy body that protects us. 131 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: It's like a spiritual immune system that seems also to stay. 132 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: But all the inner bodies leave, and they tend to gather. 133 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: People who have been awake while this was happening, say, 134 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: it feels funny, but it doesn't hurt. They all sort 135 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: of unveil prow from our extremities and yeah, in our 136 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: chest area, and then they leave. If you're beside someone 137 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: who is dying, you sometimes will see a gray mist 138 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: above the body that is actually the spirit leaving. It 139 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: has been photographed, and the reason that it seems to 140 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: disappear is that you once you're out of your body, 141 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: you are very rapidly raising your vibratory rate to the 142 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: point where people usually aren't able to perceive it. Some 143 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: more sensitive people still can, but that energy sort of 144 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 1: missed reforms into a semblance of a body that is 145 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: still attached to the the body that's lying there that 146 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 1: vote anchor on the bed by a silver cord. People 147 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: who have done this and been awake at the time 148 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: saying it's an immensely pleasurable experience. My title The Fun 149 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 1: of Dying came from what the dead tell us about 150 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: the process. It's really fun. You feel young, you feel healthy, happy, vigorous, powerful, thrilled. 151 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: Some people say it's an orgas mcfeeling to leave the body. 152 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: It's just the best. You're still attached to the body 153 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: by by that with the Bible calls of silver cord. 154 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 1: It's an energy chord that you can sometimes perceive, but 155 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: that's getting frayed now. It's been tough enough that you've 156 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: been able to leave that body. Most nights we leave 157 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,959 Speaker 1: our bodies in astral travel. We have you been able 158 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 1: to go to the other end of the universe and 159 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: still stay attached to that boat anchor. But now it's 160 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: time for you to leave. So that energy chord phrase 161 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: and disintegrates, and your loved ones around you are urging 162 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: you to come with them. So Sandra, we're heading off. 163 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: We rapidly raise our vibratory rate as to the people 164 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: around us, and it seems for many people it seems 165 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: like a fog. It sort of is between the energy 166 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: of areas, and for some people it just feels like 167 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: it when in one edge, disappears in another begins. It's 168 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: just a very personal thing. But whatever it is that 169 00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,319 Speaker 1: you'll there'll be people around you all the time. It 170 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: won't be scared ry. And what happens is that you 171 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: find a whole new, solid, beautiful, amazing earth like extraordinary 172 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 1: reality exactly where you are right now. It's in the 173 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: same place. How you say, is that possible? That possible 174 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 1: if you think of your mind as a TV set. Okay, 175 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: right now you're tuned to this level of reality and 176 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: to that body. On this level of reality. You think 177 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 1: you're in the body, but you're nowhere near it. It's 178 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,839 Speaker 1: your your blind is like it is picking up an 179 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 1: energy signal that makes you think you're in this body. 180 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: When you die, all it happens is that your mind 181 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 1: tunes to a slightly higher vibratrary rate or frequency or channel, 182 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: and you pick up a whole new, different reality just 183 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: as easily as you pick up a TV channel, Which 184 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: means your mind is not in your brain, doesn't it 185 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 1: you your mind, No, it's nowhere near your brain. Your 186 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: mind is in connection with your brain only energetically. But 187 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: your mind remain means where it always has been, and 188 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: always will be part of the eternal capital and mind 189 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 1: that Max Plump found and that we have found as well. 190 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: It's nothing like God, although that's really what it is. Uh, 191 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 1: And well, the only way it's similar to God is 192 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: that it has only one really one vibratory rate, and 193 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 1: that's perfect love. But it's not human. This is God 194 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 1: is not a human being. God. All the human gods 195 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: were created in men's image, and it's time to get 196 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: rid of them, because the real God really is perfect. 197 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 1: So I'm interested in knowing. Is the afterlife of place 198 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: where we have bodies and we can eat, and we 199 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: can see our loved ones and our pets, and there's flowers, ROBERTA. 200 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 1: Is it a reality like that? Yes? In fact, the 201 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: people who are there tell us that that's reality. Where 202 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: we are now is the illusion. That's how real it 203 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 1: is to them. It's solid um. There, there's beautiful foliage, 204 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: beautiful flowers that there are colors we have never seen 205 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: because they're beyond the visible light spectrum. We have much 206 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 1: better sensory abilities there than we have here, because here 207 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,199 Speaker 1: we're stuck with what our bodies can pick up. There, 208 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 1: we have what's called mind site, which is panoramic. We 209 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 1: can see behind ourselves as well, and it's so sharp. 210 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,079 Speaker 1: There's one fellow in the early part of the twentieth 211 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,599 Speaker 1: century community communicating through one of these deep trance mediums, 212 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 1: and he had been almost blind in life, and his 213 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 1: one of his children said, well, Dad, can you see now? 214 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: He said, let me tell you how well I could 215 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: see about what looks like about fifty miles from here. 216 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: There's a mountain range and it has foothills. The mountains 217 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: are beautiful, by the way, they're much much more beautiful 218 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: than here it has. There are foothills, they're covered with trees. 219 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: I can see from here, every leaf on every tree, 220 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 1: on every foothill in front of those mountains. That's how 221 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: well I can see here. I thought, wow, that's pretty graphic. 222 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: But tell us and our ears are much we can 223 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: hear things. They're much more beautifully. They say, we have 224 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: not heard music on this level at all. We don't 225 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,680 Speaker 1: even know what music is till we get there. I 226 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: know you've written that although we can eat if we 227 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 1: want to, we don't have bodies and we don't need to. 228 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: What about hugs? Can we hug in the afterlife? A 229 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: hug there is a hundred times better than any hug 230 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,679 Speaker 1: you've ever had here. Wow. What the dead have told 231 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: us consistently for the almost two hundred years we've been 232 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: getting good communications from them, like they told us consistently, 233 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: is that there there's really no sex there because although 234 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: we could do it, there's no sex drives. So there's 235 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,319 Speaker 1: just you don't want to bother. But what there is 236 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: is something better. There is a merging of our energy 237 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: bodies that we can do, which is like a whole 238 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: body orgasm. It is the best feeling you can possibly imagine, 239 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: has no morality attached to it, and that's quite a hug. 240 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 1: I bet it is. And our loved ones are there. Yes. 241 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: How about a life review? We often hear that when 242 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,559 Speaker 1: we die we have to review our lives. There is 243 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,839 Speaker 1: a life review, but nobody ever judges us other than ourselves. 244 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 1: What happens is that we experience all the events of 245 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: our lives, apparently in detail. And I don't know how 246 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: this is possible, but this is what they tell us. 247 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: We very quickly review all the events of our lives 248 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: and then we go to uh or. We have around 249 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: us people that love us, and what we try to 250 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: do then is to uh forgive ourselves and forgive others 251 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: for the things that they did and that we did. Now, 252 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: it's easy to forgive others, they tell us. It doesn't 253 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: matter what that other one ever did to us, But 254 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: we are we forgive them all. It's easy, easy to do. 255 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: But what we have a lot of trouble doing is 256 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: forgiving ourselves.

Grimes. It's just experiencing all the emotions 299 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 1: we felt as part of the events, and also all 300 00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 1: the emotions that other people felt, and in experiencing that, 301 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: we get to the point where we we have well 302 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: we easily forgive them, we get to the point where 303 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: we really have to begin to forgive ourselves. It's not easy. 304 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,679 Speaker 1: There's so many of us that want proof that our 305 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: loved ones are around, and from Heaven's point of view, 306 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: are are our loved ones spending time trying to get 307 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 1: in touch with us that they're Okay, it depends they're 308 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 1: like us. They're very different in what they care about. 309 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 1: There seems to be a process that nearly all of 310 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 1: them go through right after they die. It's part of 311 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: the induction, like the life for view. And also the party. 312 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:42,399 Speaker 1: They do a lot of party in there. This is 313 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: something most people don't know about. But there's always a 314 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 1: party for each of us when we get there. I 315 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 1: love that is no wonderful and and um. But but 316 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 1: one of the things that they do is to the 317 00:18:56,200 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: upper level beings will offer to teach those newly around 318 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: to how to give signs to their to their family. Okay, 319 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,920 Speaker 1: and there are very predictable signs, and I talk about 320 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: them in the fun of staying in touch. Mikey, who 321 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,880 Speaker 1: was this extremely advanced being um and who just as 322 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 1: I say, returned there in two thousand and seven. He 323 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: spends a lot of his effort helping people learn how 324 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: to give these signs, and he gives his family signs 325 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 1: every single day, even though, of course it's been almost 326 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 1: a decade since he left them there. It's just his 327 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: mother says, it's like he never left. He's doing all 328 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 1: these things all the time. But he's unusual most of 329 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 1: our loved ones will give us some signs. We will 330 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 1: ignore them because we don't know what's going on, and 331 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 1: they will shrug and they will go on and have 332 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 1: a nice life there. Even though we might miss them. 333 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 1: They know from their perspective, in a minute, they'll turn 334 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 1: around and we'll be there after having lived another fifty years. 335 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: Time is very different there. It doesn't exist here the 336 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 1: way it does there there the way it does here. 337 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: So they don't miss us. They can check in whenever 338 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 1: they like. It's very different for them than it is 339 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: for us. So I recommend to people that you satisfy 340 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:08,159 Speaker 1: yourself that that that your loved one is fine. Um My, 341 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,679 Speaker 1: I didn't believe in in spiritual mediums because whenever I 342 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,159 Speaker 1: tested them, and that was about fifteen years ago, I 343 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 1: was doing a lot of even very expensive ones, they 344 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: were not doing a good job. It was my fault. 345 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: I now understand. It was my fault because I didn't 346 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: have anybody for whom I was grieving. They were all 347 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: it had been dead awhile and and I was being 348 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: skeptical from the beginning. I was a researcher testing them, 349 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,639 Speaker 1: so it was it was tough for them and I 350 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: am sorry about that. Now, there are some very good 351 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: spiritual mediums, So I recommend that people find a good 352 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: spiritual medium, get in touch with mom and dad, make 353 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 1: sure they're fine or whoever else is missing. Be sure 354 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,400 Speaker 1: they're they're fine, satisfy yourself, and then live your own 355 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,360 Speaker 1: life trying to get as high as you can spiritually. 356 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: That's what it's all about. That's the whole game. Okay, 357 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: One more thing I want to ask is the quantum physics. 358 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I know that's pretty broad thing to get into, 359 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: but there was that I've had. I've had some things 360 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 1: happened to me that are like whole holy Cow moments, 361 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,120 Speaker 1: like so mind blowing. And one of them is something 362 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,440 Speaker 1: called remote viewing um. And it's like an esp technique 363 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: when you can quiet your mind and you can actually 364 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,679 Speaker 1: see what's on somebody's dining room table, or before you 365 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: open a magazine, you can tell what pictures are in 366 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: the magazine, and it's it was it's such a mind 367 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: blowing experience that like that told me that we can't 368 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: possibly just be this body. We can't. So in your book, 369 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: it's the first time that I read that, and I like, 370 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 1: I knew this but it was just really nice to 371 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,880 Speaker 1: read you right from that quantum level. We're all made 372 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,679 Speaker 1: up of energy, and within us we have molecules and 373 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 1: cells and atoms and that power with all that works. 374 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 1: But you were the one who said that if you 375 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: just put a teeny tiny canmera inside one of our atoms, 376 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,199 Speaker 1: you know, because we look like we're made up of 377 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,440 Speaker 1: the skin and bones and hair and whatever else we've 378 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 1: got clothes on. But if we put a tiny little 379 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 1: camera into to one of our atoms, it wouldn't see anything. 380 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: All we really are is made up of vibrating energy. 381 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: And you said that in your book, and I remember 382 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: thinking that was one of those aha, holy cow moments 383 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:26,399 Speaker 1: that really convinced me that everything we're looking at is 384 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:32,120 Speaker 1: an illusion. It is. It's a really really good one though, 385 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:36,360 Speaker 1: Oh it sure is. And we actually come into this 386 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: most of our minds are not even accessible to us 387 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 1: while we're in a body, and we come into this 388 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: body basically haven't pledged to agree in the trick we 389 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 1: we've we are pledged to not look behind the curtain, 390 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: and um, so we don't. But in fact, and you know, 391 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 1: it's funny to be talking about quantum physics because proudly 392 00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 1: I'll tell you I never got past to algebra two. 393 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 1: I never took physics even in high school. And that's 394 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: all actually an advantage, because to to think about math 395 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: and to think about which doesn't seem to matter and 396 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: the rest of reality, and to think about um, about 397 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:20,680 Speaker 1: physics as solid is a distraction from the fact that intuitively, 398 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 1: I think we all understand that we are mind. We're 399 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: part of eternal mind. That's what's going on. And Max 400 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 1: Pluck got the Nobel Prize for quantum mechanics. He's the 401 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 1: one who got got the big prize for it. He's 402 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 1: very smart man. He said, the only thing that exists 403 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: is consciousness. We can't get behind consciousness. Everything we talk about, 404 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: everything we regard as existing postulates consciousness. He literally used 405 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: quantum physics right at the start early twentieth century to 406 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 1: realize what they had really found was was God. However, 407 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: because physicists are so invested in the notion that what's 408 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:07,159 Speaker 1: physical must be solid somehow, and even though they have 409 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 1: all the evidence in the world that that's not true, um, 410 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: they've ignored those things, he said, and going on to 411 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: look at physics in a more complicated way. It's really simple. 412 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,919 Speaker 1: Quantum physics is a kind of plug that attaches the 413 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,879 Speaker 1: Newtonian physics, which actually does work in this level of 414 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: reality and is math based to the physics of more 415 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: than of reality, which is entirely consciousness based. It's the plug, 416 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 1: that's all. It's easy. You just said that and lost me. 417 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: But that's okay. I don't need to get it. I know, 418 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't need I don't need to get it. 419 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 1: But here's what I want to say, is you said 420 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: we all kind of came into this life and agreed, 421 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: you know that it's a trick or however you worded it. 422 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 1: And it's just like I think, if we knew seven 423 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: that we are these infinite souls and we're just having 424 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 1: a human experience, there would be no fun of living, right, Like, 425 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: so we had to come in here and really think 426 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:07,679 Speaker 1: that this is it, like we you know. It's just 427 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: it's just making me think, like, yeah, we signed up 428 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 1: for believing this. And I think one of the things 429 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 1: that we all got as a gift and a curse 430 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: sometimes is this internal thinking. That's man, I'm not my 431 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: own best friend. I criticize myself all the time, I 432 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,919 Speaker 1: think I got fear that shows up, and is that 433 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: something that we were given as part of the trick 434 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: to just have us help not remember who we really are. 435 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: It's it's really just that they want us to take 436 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: the gym seriously. We're here too, you know, Yeah you're funny, 437 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 1: but they want us to take seriously these lessons. But 438 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: I can assure anybody who's worried that somehow it won't 439 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 1: be fun once you know this stuff. The fun of 440 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 1: my life really began when I began to understand the truth. 441 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,880 Speaker 1: It's the most amazing thing. Because you're you have fears, 442 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: you have worries of pains. Um, yes, you get to 443 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: taste a burrito, but it's just it's just it's just 444 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 1: that's that's small potatoes compared to understanding that you are 445 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 1: the best beloved child of an infinitely loving God. That 446 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,439 Speaker 1: to me is a lot more important. And when I 447 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 1: really got all of that, Wow, it's just the best 448 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,640 Speaker 1: feeling on earth you can imagine. And I think then 449 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 1: you start taking the even though you can see that 450 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: the machine is just a Marcinat machine, it's a kind 451 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 1: of trick. You no longer feel the grief you felt 452 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 1: before for people who have died, because you understand what's 453 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 1: going on, you can see behind the curtain a little bit, 454 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 1: but it makes you all the harder try to ace 455 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,679 Speaker 1: out the lessons. You know. Yeah, I know it's just 456 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: a lesson, but I still want to get an a. Yeah, definitely, 457 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 1: And I think it's so important everything you're doing to 458 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: share your message, your books. I know you've been on 459 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,680 Speaker 1: over a hundred radio shows this past year. I mean, 460 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 1: you're You're out there. And the thing is for any 461 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 1: one of us, whether it's listening to one of our shows, 462 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 1: whether it's picking up a book, whether it's going to 463 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: a seminar, the more times that we can remind ourselves 464 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: that this is real, like life after death is real, 465 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 1: and we are eternal souls and here in a human 466 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: body that is real. The more times we hear that, 467 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: I think it keeps us in in the game and 468 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,919 Speaker 1: and like looking for opportunities to love and forgive and 469 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: to grow. Because even though ROBERTA. I wrote my book, 470 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: and even though I've had some pretty mind blowing experiences, 471 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 1: I cannot remember them on my own unless I stay engaged. 472 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: And I also know when I stay engaged, I talk 473 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: to somebody like you, or if I read a book 474 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: or something like that, I remember to do things like 475 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 1: quiet my mind, whether you call it meditation or whatever. 476 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: I remember to be in the present moment. And by 477 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 1: doing those kind of things, I think for myself. Anyways, 478 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 1: I've had a whole lot more synchronicities. I will even 479 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: say I've had miracles show up. I've had people come 480 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,919 Speaker 1: into my life that I thought were they here just 481 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: from me. So whether it's raising my vibration or tapping 482 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 1: into something, I don't know, but the quality of life 483 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,360 Speaker 1: seems to be much better when I'm engaged in this conversation. 484 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 1: I would totally absolutely agree with a man it's Ben Sister. Yeah, absolutely, Um. 485 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 1: There is nothing like the kind of feeling you have 486 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,919 Speaker 1: for other people when you really understand what's going on. 487 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:25,360 Speaker 1: You can look at people that you used to think 488 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: we're awful and you can see the God in them 489 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: you be. You're able to begin to really love everybody, 490 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: and it's it's always for all of us. It's just 491 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 1: it's a new set of habits. But it's not something 492 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,959 Speaker 1: that's automatic. We need to work at it, but it works. 493 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: You can find out more about ROBERTA. On ROBERTA. Grimes 494 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: dot Com. In our next segment, I'll tell you some 495 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: things you may or may not know about afterlife research 496 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: that's happening in the world right now. I do believe 497 00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: that to have any significant change, more pep will need 498 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 1: to believe, then not believe, and a tipping point will occur. 499 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,719 Speaker 1: I can tell you I am really looking forward to 500 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: that day. Sometimes it seems crazy that more people don't 501 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: believe in the afterlife when there are some things equally 502 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: as hard to grasp. Earlier, we talked about the quantum 503 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: mechanics and putting a camera into our tiniest little atom 504 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: that makes up us, and we aren't completely invisible beings 505 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: made up of vibrating energy. How about this? Have you 506 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 1: ever looked up at the night sky and thought of 507 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: how big it is? When we do, we're looking at 508 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: the stars that make up our Milky Way galaxy. Scientists 509 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: think in our galaxy alone there are two hundred to 510 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: four hundred billion stars like our Sun. It is believed 511 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 1: that at least ten percent of the stars have planets 512 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 1: in their solar systems, which would mean that there are 513 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: at least twenty billion solar systems just in our Milky 514 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 1: Way galaxy. Now get this. With the Hubble Telescope and 515 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 1: other supercomputers, scientists estimate that there could be one hundred 516 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: to two hundred billion galaxies in the universe, and that 517 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: the universe is ever expanding, ever expanding into what I ask. 518 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: The farthest individual star that has been photographed is a 519 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:44,479 Speaker 1: blue super giant named Icarus, and it would take nine 520 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 1: billion years to reach it from here. How can we 521 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 1: be looking at its light now from nine billion years ago? 522 00:30:56,360 --> 00:31:00,040 Speaker 1: That's something I just can't get my mind around. I 523 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,719 Speaker 1: think we humans think that we should be able to 524 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: figure everything out. I honestly don't think our minds can 525 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 1: comprehend it all, and I don't think we are designed to. 526 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,479 Speaker 1: But the day we leave our body, we'll get a 527 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: whole new perspective on the bigger picture and perhaps understand more. 528 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: Someday I'd like to take a trip to Australia and 529 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 1: New Zealand to meet some of the great people I've 530 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 1: met on the online psychic and medium classes that I host. 531 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: Where would you like to travel to? So here's a 532 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: question for you. How do we know these places are 533 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: real if we've never been there? Because many people before 534 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 1: us say they are real. We trust them and believe them. 535 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 1: With near death experiences and mediums and so much more, 536 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: we know there is an afterlife, and through the works 537 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: of researchers now capturing pictures and voices, we can trust 538 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 1: the afterlife is a real place too. We'll be back 539 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 1: in just a moment to look at some of this research. 540 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 1: You're listening to Shades of the Afterlife on the I 541 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 1: Heart Media and Coast to Coast a m paranormal podcast network.

Welcome back to 563 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: Shades the Afterlife. I'm Sander Champlain, and years ago, when 564 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 1: I was at the peak of being an afterlife skeptic, 565 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 1: I knew that no one could possibly have proof of 566 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 1: the afterlife. I thought when people had near death experiences 567 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:19,520 Speaker 1: and saw a bright light, that was a normal part 568 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 1: of our brain shutting down. Well, after now almost twenty 569 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:28,400 Speaker 1: five years of investigating, I realize I am not alone 570 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 1: on this afterlife investigation, and I want to introduce you 571 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 1: to some of the people and organizations that have been 572 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 1: around for a mighty long time doing some great work 573 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: into afterlife research. First, I'd like to talk a little 574 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: bit about visual instrumental trans communication. On episode number one, 575 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 1: we met Sonya and Aldi, who is the world's leading 576 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 1: researcher who actually gets audios, voices and pictures of people 577 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 1: in the afterlife, cann acting parents with their children, and 578 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: so much more, proving that we live on that we 579 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:09,240 Speaker 1: get to be our best age, healthy and well. There's 580 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,360 Speaker 1: also people like Mark Macy and I met him many 581 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:17,359 Speaker 1: many years ago, and he had a polaroid camera and 582 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 1: he had it somehow devised that he would take a 583 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,280 Speaker 1: picture of someone and when it came out of the camera, 584 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 1: it would develop and have two faces on it. Now, 585 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 1: my skeptical mind didn't quite buy into it. But the 586 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:34,360 Speaker 1: woman I was sitting next to I knew pretty well, 587 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:38,840 Speaker 1: and her daughter had passed and she was deeply grieving 588 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 1: for years. She was right behind me online and we 589 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 1: got our pictures taken, and when we returned to our 590 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:50,839 Speaker 1: seats and we watched our photos develop. Mine was just 591 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 1: looked like a blurry picture of me. But hers, well, 592 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: it was her very narrow face and then on top 593 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:03,239 Speaker 1: of it are a picture of her daughter. Now I've 594 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 1: seen a picture of her daughter, and she had real 595 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:09,839 Speaker 1: curly hair round face, big smile, and that daughter's face 596 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 1: was on there, no doubt about it. There's also people 597 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: that do things like use water and take pictures of 598 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 1: light on the water. Sometimes there are pictures that you 599 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:25,960 Speaker 1: see of deceased loved ones. Electronic voice phenomena, that's something 600 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: we can talk about. That is taking a recording device 601 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 1: capturing the sound of white noise, but it could be 602 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:39,279 Speaker 1: water running or a fan blowing, and when you play 603 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,439 Speaker 1: it back, voices are there. So I have to tell 604 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 1: you we all want to have immediate results, and sometimes 605 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 1: there is what's called beginner's luck, or the spirit world 606 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 1: actually give you a taste of something so that you 607 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:57,800 Speaker 1: will pursue it more. I got recordings right at the 608 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 1: very beginning. However, it took some time to really practice 609 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: and listen in if you can imagine learning a different 610 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: language in the beginning, when you hear the language and 611 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:13,320 Speaker 1: you don't speak it while you can't quite understand the words. 612 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 1: But once you listen for a while and you start 613 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 1: understanding what the words mean, suddenly your ears can pick 614 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 1: up on them. Our loved ones don't have all the 615 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 1: knowledge in the universe when they transition. I do believe 616 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 1: that they have to learn how to do this themselves, 617 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,840 Speaker 1: and so set a time, do your research, get a 618 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 1: good digital recorder, and if this is something you're interested in, 619 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 1: really do the research and practice. It takes having a 620 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:44,840 Speaker 1: commitment to your friend or loved one in the spirit 621 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:48,400 Speaker 1: world to have these things work. Okay, we've also talked 622 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:53,080 Speaker 1: about trance mediumship and physical mediumship on the last episode. 623 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,719 Speaker 1: We're not done with that quite yet, because I've got 624 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,880 Speaker 1: something great to have you listened to in the next segment. 625 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:01,439 Speaker 1: I also want to talk a little bit about near 626 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: death experiences and share death experiences. Our friends at i AMS, 627 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 1: which is i A n d s dot Org, is 628 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 1: the world's largest organization on near death experiences, and I 629 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 1: believe it's something like fourteen million people have had near 630 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:23,439 Speaker 1: death experiences. And this is when their heart stops, they 631 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 1: see the light, they hear sounds very often, they see 632 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 1: their relatives. Many people have been guided and seeing their life, 633 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 1: They've had a life review. Some pretty extraordinary cases out there. 634 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 1: Not everyone that flatlines has a near death experience, or 635 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:42,760 Speaker 1: maybe they do and they just don't remember it. They're 636 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 1: all different, as different as there's over seven billion people 637 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 1: on planet Earth, and if you were to ask somebody 638 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:53,480 Speaker 1: what's life about, what's it like? We'd all give a 639 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 1: different answer. So I do think because that if their 640 00:38:56,280 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 1: cord Roberta spoke about isn't yet completely severed, we don't 641 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:04,400 Speaker 1: transition completely to the other side. So some of it 642 00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:07,600 Speaker 1: could be our belief, some of it could be our 643 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:10,880 Speaker 1: memories what we experienced. But I do believe this is 644 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:15,440 Speaker 1: a really great example that life does go on after death. 645 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 1: Dr Raymond Moody coined the phrase near death experience back 646 00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:25,399 Speaker 1: in the seventies. Kenneth Ring took the research a little 647 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 1: bit further and he worked with blind people, people who 648 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,440 Speaker 1: had never had sight having a near death experience. They 649 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: could see and they could accurately tell things that were 650 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,440 Speaker 1: going on in the room around them, outside of the 651 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 1: room around them. And even more, William Peters runs Shared 652 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 1: Crossing Project and he actually trains people how to be 653 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 1: with your loved one at the time of passing. And 654 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:56,040 Speaker 1: there's many examples of people that have witnessed spiritually in 655 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:59,360 Speaker 1: their mind's eye, that same passing, that same moving to 656 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,840 Speaker 1: the light and what happens in the dying process. Spirit 657 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 1: Artists are a form of a medium. They're people that 658 00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 1: are gifted with drawing, and they have artistic abilities, and 659 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: they're also mediums. I know in my dad past as 660 00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 1: much as I believed in the afterlife, I was suffering 661 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 1: something so greatly from grief that there was a spirit 662 00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 1: artist near where I lived, and she not only drew 663 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,880 Speaker 1: a picture of my dad very similar to what he 664 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:32,840 Speaker 1: would look like in his twenties, she told a story 665 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 1: of a very private conversation I had with my dad 666 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 1: that no one could have known, no one, so I 667 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 1: know she was talking to my dad. Reincarnation is a 668 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,880 Speaker 1: subject that some people believe in and some people don't. 669 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 1: Some people believe that when we die, we come back 670 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,399 Speaker 1: over and over and over again, kind of like our 671 00:40:56,440 --> 00:41:01,520 Speaker 1: souls are being recycled to try life another time. There 672 00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 1: are countless stories of children that had memories of being 673 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:13,319 Speaker 1: someone else and the now past researcher Dr Ian Stevenson 674 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:18,160 Speaker 1: actually documented three thousand cases of these children that had 675 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 1: memories of someone else from a previous lifetime. On the 676 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 1: flip side of that, there are people that believe that 677 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 1: someone's soul is around you, someone who has passed, and 678 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:34,440 Speaker 1: the person who thinks they're reincarnated, they actually have that 679 00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 1: soul as maybe a spirit guide, or they're communicating telepathically 680 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:42,240 Speaker 1: with them, kind of like a medium would. So whichever 681 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 1: side of the coin you're on with reincarnation, it's a 682 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:51,440 Speaker 1: really good reason to believe that we go on. There 683 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 1: is what's called induced after death communication and grief reattachment therapy. 684 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:04,839 Speaker 1: The are very similar, almost hypnotic techniques to bring them 685 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:08,840 Speaker 1: to a zone where it's almost an altered reality where 686 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 1: you can actually see and reconnect with your loved one. 687 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 1: Dr Alan Botkin was one of the first to figure 688 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,840 Speaker 1: this out. He was a doctor for the Veterans Administration 689 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:24,239 Speaker 1: in the United States, and so many of the soldiers 690 00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:28,720 Speaker 1: had post traumatic stress. He did something with their eyes 691 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:33,920 Speaker 1: called e M d R. Eye Movement Desensitization Routine I 692 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:37,239 Speaker 1: think it's called, and he did a series of left right, 693 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 1: left right eye movements and the idea it would be 694 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:45,799 Speaker 1: to dislodge the emotion from a memory of something very 695 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:49,439 Speaker 1: very traumatic that would happen with the soldiers. But one 696 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 1: point he gave a little too many left right, left 697 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 1: right eye movements and he found it brought the patient 698 00:42:56,280 --> 00:43:00,560 Speaker 1: into this altered reality where they would see their loved one. 699 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 1: Very fascinating research. If you look up Dr Alan Botkin 700 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:11,600 Speaker 1: and I a d C induced after death communication, Rochelle 701 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:15,480 Speaker 1: write does something not similar but different. This is something 702 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 1: where you can spend several days and several hours with 703 00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 1: the therapist for the deeply grieving, but it's got well 704 00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 1: over success rate at connecting people with their deceased loved ones. 705 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 1: Deathbed visitations are another reason to believe in the afterlife. 706 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: There are so many stories, especially talking to many hospice 707 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:42,720 Speaker 1: workers hospice volunteers. Just before someone takes their last breath, 708 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:47,320 Speaker 1: very often they tell stories of who's there to greet them. 709 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 1: They can spring to life again, even if they were 710 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:54,600 Speaker 1: lying rather comatose. They get a burst of energy, they 711 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 1: can have mental clarity, and so often they talk about 712 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:01,799 Speaker 1: whether it's angels, were loved ones that are there to 713 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:07,880 Speaker 1: bring them home. We've spoken about mediums before. There are 714 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:12,560 Speaker 1: evidential mediums, their trance mediums, their physical mediums. There's some 715 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 1: people that do some pretty incredible things. Once on my travels, 716 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:23,240 Speaker 1: I actually witnessed a trance medium who closed their eyes 717 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 1: and was sitting in front of another person and they 718 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:31,359 Speaker 1: brought themselves down into that deep state and through their 719 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:35,880 Speaker 1: mouth the loved one was able to step in and 720 00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:39,759 Speaker 1: actually have a conversation again with their loved one who 721 00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:43,800 Speaker 1: was left here on earth. It was something that really 722 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:47,320 Speaker 1: challenged my brain, but I knew both parties, and I 723 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 1: knew that this was not fake. And to have witnessed 724 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 1: a parent apologizing to his son for specifics, or a 725 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:59,800 Speaker 1: mother talking to her daughter reliving the time they baked 726 00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 1: us certain kind of cake was just amazing. Again, the 727 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:07,520 Speaker 1: medium could not have known these kind of details. And 728 00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:10,400 Speaker 1: with my own training and development and the things that 729 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:14,319 Speaker 1: have come from my own mind that have been accurate 730 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 1: about people's loved ones that I have never met, it's 731 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 1: an amazing experience.

Welcome back to Shades of the Afterlife. 791 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:11,440 Speaker 1: I'm Sander Champlain, and I'd like to tell you about 792 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:16,480 Speaker 1: a man named Maurice Barbanel. Maurice spent fifty years as 793 00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:21,360 Speaker 1: founder and editor of the weekly spiritualist newspaper Psychic News, 794 00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:26,120 Speaker 1: devoted to sharing spiritual knowledge and evidence of the afterlife. 795 00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:30,160 Speaker 1: But he wasn't always spiritual. Born to a Jewish mother 796 00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:33,880 Speaker 1: and atheist father, Maurice adopted the views of his father 797 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 1: and then turned to agnosticism, Not knowing whether God existed 798 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:43,239 Speaker 1: or not. He heard about spiritualism from a speaker at 799 00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:46,560 Speaker 1: a social and literary club of which he was secretary, 800 00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:50,120 Speaker 1: but refused to debate the subject because he had made 801 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:55,000 Speaker 1: no personal investigation. Maurice was invited to attend a seance 802 00:50:55,320 --> 00:51:00,560 Speaker 1: but thought he fell asleep. Upon waking, he apologized believed 803 00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:05,040 Speaker 1: that either boredom or tiredness had been responsible, but the 804 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:08,880 Speaker 1: circle members informed him that he had not been asleep, 805 00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:12,040 Speaker 1: but had been in a trance and a Native American 806 00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:16,680 Speaker 1: had spoken through him. Over the years, thousands of hours 807 00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:20,960 Speaker 1: of wisdom from Silver Birch came through the mouthpiece of 808 00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:26,000 Speaker 1: trance medium Maurice Barbanell. The Spiritual Truth Foundation was formed 809 00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:31,880 Speaker 1: by Barbanel on the fifteenth of February nine. It's charitable 810 00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:36,840 Speaker 1: purposes include the promotion of religious philosophy of spiritualism, the 811 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:42,279 Speaker 1: promotion and advancement of spiritual healing, and making grants available 812 00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:46,840 Speaker 1: to spiritualists who are experiencing financial hardship. You can find 813 00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 1: many books on the wisdom of Silver Birch on Spiritual 814 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:56,239 Speaker 1: Truth Foundation dot org and books by Maurice and Sylvia Barbonel, 815 00:51:56,800 --> 00:52:00,600 Speaker 1: as well as the history of Spiritualism by Sir Arthur 816 00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:04,600 Speaker 1: Conan Doyle. I'd like to read to you some words 817 00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:08,680 Speaker 1: from What Happens When You Die, written by Maurice Barbonnel 818 00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:13,040 Speaker 1: through the Wisdom of Silver Birch in his book They 819 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:18,760 Speaker 1: Shall be Comforted from ninety six. One day after death, 820 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,839 Speaker 1: you will be the same individual as you were one 821 00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:25,359 Speaker 1: day before it, except that you will have discarded your 822 00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:29,520 Speaker 1: physical body. You will express yourself through your etheric body, 823 00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:33,480 Speaker 1: which is a replica of your physical one. It does not, however, 824 00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:38,520 Speaker 1: reproduce any of its imperfections. All disease and infirmities will 825 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:42,800 Speaker 1: be left behind. The death will hear, the dumb will speak, 826 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:46,320 Speaker 1: the blind will see, the cripple will be a cripple 827 00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:50,279 Speaker 1: no longer. You must try and understand that life in 828 00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:54,239 Speaker 1: the spirit world is not dreamy or nebulous. It is 829 00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:57,640 Speaker 1: full of activity. It is just as real as the 830 00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:00,640 Speaker 1: life that each one of us lives here. We are 831 00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 1: accustomed to think of the material world as being real 832 00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:08,160 Speaker 1: and solid, although actually this is not so, as the 833 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:12,120 Speaker 1: science of physics proves, the things of the mind or 834 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 1: the spirit seem to us shadowy and vague. But to 835 00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:19,640 Speaker 1: those who live on the other side, the mental is 836 00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:23,799 Speaker 1: the real and the physical is the shadow. This may 837 00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,320 Speaker 1: be hard for you to grasp, but you will find 838 00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 1: a perfect analogy. If you think of your dreams. When 839 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:32,640 Speaker 1: you dream, all the things that you encounter are real 840 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:36,120 Speaker 1: at the time of their happening, then only become dreams 841 00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:39,040 Speaker 1: when you wake up. If you never woke up, then 842 00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:43,360 Speaker 1: that state would become your reality. The spirit world is 843 00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:47,160 Speaker 1: around and about us. Some people see it and hear 844 00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:50,719 Speaker 1: it because they can tune into its vibrations. It is 845 00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:54,200 Speaker 1: not situated in some far off continent. It is part 846 00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:58,400 Speaker 1: of the universe, blending and intermingling with the physical world. 847 00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:02,400 Speaker 1: You must dis this from your mind. The old fashioned 848 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 1: theological idea that after death there is an undisturbed eternal sleep. 849 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,960 Speaker 1: There may be at first a short time of rest 850 00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:14,600 Speaker 1: to enable the newly arrived spirit to adjust himself to 851 00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 1: his new life. This usually takes a little time. Then 852 00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:21,319 Speaker 1: he meets those who have preceded him. Families are reunited, 853 00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:26,960 Speaker 1: old associations are reestablished, friendships are renewed. I know the 854 00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:30,239 Speaker 1: question you will ask is how will I be able 855 00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:33,640 Speaker 1: to recognize those who have gone before? This is not 856 00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 1: a real difficulty. They will know you, having watched over 857 00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:41,400 Speaker 1: you and kept in constant touch with you. Then, because 858 00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:44,719 Speaker 1: the spirit world is a place where thought is the reality. 859 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:47,960 Speaker 1: They will be able to show themselves to you as 860 00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:52,240 Speaker 1: you knew them. There is, however, one great factor always 861 00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:56,839 Speaker 1: operating in the spirit world, the unalterable law of attraction. 862 00:54:57,239 --> 00:55:00,880 Speaker 1: Only those of like spiritual qualities can meet on the 863 00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:03,760 Speaker 1: same plane in the new life. The husband and wife, 864 00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:07,120 Speaker 1: who were only held together on earth by a legal tie, 865 00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 1: and between whom no real love existed, will not be 866 00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:14,800 Speaker 1: together in the spirit life. Sometimes people are puzzled because 867 00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:17,400 Speaker 1: they learn that there are houses on the other side. 868 00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:20,680 Speaker 1: You must remember, though, these are not houses made of 869 00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:24,640 Speaker 1: bricks and mortar, but constructed out of thought. This applies 870 00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:27,960 Speaker 1: also to the clothing that is worn. The instinct to 871 00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:32,400 Speaker 1: clothe oneself is deeply rooted and has become habitual. No 872 00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:36,000 Speaker 1: one would dream of walking through the streets unclothed. This 873 00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:39,879 Speaker 1: habit is part of our mental makeup. That is why 874 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:43,000 Speaker 1: it persists on the other side, where mental states are 875 00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:46,680 Speaker 1: the reality. What about food, You may ask, do they eat? 876 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:50,399 Speaker 1: As long as there is a desire for food, This 877 00:55:50,560 --> 00:55:55,120 Speaker 1: mental desire is mentally satisfied. In the spirit world. There 878 00:55:55,120 --> 00:56:00,200 Speaker 1: are no language difficulties. All people of all nations can 879 00:56:00,280 --> 00:56:05,160 Speaker 1: the same language thought. There are no words to be mouthed, 880 00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:11,200 Speaker 1: for ideas are conveyed telepathically from one person to another. Words, 881 00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:16,080 Speaker 1: after all, are but clumsy substitutions for thoughts. They are 882 00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:20,120 Speaker 1: artificial means by which we communicate our ideas to one another. 883 00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:24,759 Speaker 1: But words can never adequately express the thoughts one is 884 00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:28,719 Speaker 1: trying to convey. One day, when the human race has evolved, 885 00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:32,400 Speaker 1: language will be abolished. We will have learned how to 886 00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:37,040 Speaker 1: send our ideas to each other telepathically. Then many of 887 00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:41,959 Speaker 1: our international difficulties will disappear. In the spirit world, each 888 00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:45,560 Speaker 1: person's thoughts are known and cannot be hidden. There can 889 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:49,880 Speaker 1: be no deception or pretense. Every individual is known for 890 00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:54,440 Speaker 1: what he is. He cannot deceive anybody, for lying is impossible. 891 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:58,720 Speaker 1: What about age, you may ask, what happens to old people? 892 00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:02,440 Speaker 1: Who pass on? Physical age and mental growth do not 893 00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:06,480 Speaker 1: proceed at the same rate. We rashly judge a man's 894 00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:10,279 Speaker 1: mentality by the age of his physical body. Here on 895 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:13,960 Speaker 1: the other side of life, it is the mind which survives, 896 00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:19,320 Speaker 1: and mental growth consists of progress towards maturity. Little children 897 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:23,520 Speaker 1: will grow older, the older people will grow young in spirit. 898 00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:27,640 Speaker 1: What work do they do in this earthly life of ours? 899 00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:31,520 Speaker 1: There are thousands of singers who have never sung, actors 900 00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:35,480 Speaker 1: who have never acted, painters who have never painted, poets 901 00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:38,920 Speaker 1: who have never written, musicians who have never composed a 902 00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:42,880 Speaker 1: note of music. All these talents have never had an 903 00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:48,520 Speaker 1: opportunity of being expressed, because, through economic circumstances, usually the 904 00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:52,240 Speaker 1: owners had to follow some other occupation to secure their 905 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:55,920 Speaker 1: bread and butter. On the other side, they can express 906 00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 1: their talents. There are no square pegs in round holes 907 00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:03,919 Speaker 1: in that world. For them, life is one continuous road 908 00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:08,240 Speaker 1: of progress, each person striving to eliminate the dross from 909 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 1: his nature and perfecting his own being, and that striving 910 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:16,680 Speaker 1: for perfection. There is no limit. It goes on for eternity. 911 00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:20,520 Speaker 1: The spirit world will not be so unfamiliar as we think, 912 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:25,480 Speaker 1: because most of us visit it in our sleep state. Unfortunately, 913 00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:30,120 Speaker 1: few of us remember what transpires when however, we pass 914 00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:34,640 Speaker 1: on the law of association of ideas, will recall how 915 00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:39,320 Speaker 1: our nocturnal experiences. Of course, it takes some time for 916 00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 1: the newly arrived spirit to acclimate himself to the conditions 917 00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:46,560 Speaker 1: of life. On the other side. This process of awakening 918 00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:50,160 Speaker 1: differs according to the knowledge of spirit life that the 919 00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:54,240 Speaker 1: dead man had before his passing. The more ignorant he was, 920 00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:57,840 Speaker 1: the longer it will take him to familiarize himself with 921 00:58:57,920 --> 00:59:01,520 Speaker 1: his new conditions. Then, to those who are trained in 922 00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:07,600 Speaker 1: very orthodox ideas with rigid conceptions of after death states, 923 00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:12,360 Speaker 1: experience a great difficulty because the next stage of life 924 00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:16,120 Speaker 1: being a mental one, they live in the mental world 925 00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:20,560 Speaker 1: they have created until they have evolved sufficiently to dispel 926 00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:24,040 Speaker 1: this illusion. When we pass on, we do not enter 927 00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:28,280 Speaker 1: through Heaven's pearly gates. Neither do we descend to Hell 928 00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:33,440 Speaker 1: through lakes of fire and brimstone. We do not sleep forever. 929 00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:38,320 Speaker 1: Each one of us naturally gravitates to the spiritual sphere 930 00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:40,880 Speaker 1: for which we are fitted, according to the life we 931 00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:44,920 Speaker 1: have lived and the character we have evolved. Here. We 932 00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:48,960 Speaker 1: cannot occupy a higher sphere than the spiritual status we 933 00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:54,200 Speaker 1: have received, nor will we desire to occupy a lower one. Automatically, 934 00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 1: we shall go to that plane of spirit life for 935 00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:00,160 Speaker 1: which we are fitted. We shall not be able to 936 01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:03,400 Speaker 1: pretend we are better or worse. For stripped of our 937 01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:06,680 Speaker 1: physical body, we shall be revealed and known for what 938 01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:09,760 Speaker 1: we are. People who have lived normal lives will not 939 01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:12,880 Speaker 1: find anything to disappoint them when they arrived to the 940 01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:16,200 Speaker 1: spirit world. It is the selfish man who has to 941 01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:20,440 Speaker 1: face great difficulties due to his earthly habits, which act 942 01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:24,360 Speaker 1: as a barrier to be overcome by progress before he 943 01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:28,360 Speaker 1: is fitted to associate with those he loves. If by 944 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:31,919 Speaker 1: virtue of life he has lived upon earth, he has 945 01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:35,080 Speaker 1: cut himself off from those who love him, that will 946 01:00:35,160 --> 01:00:38,640 Speaker 1: be his hell. What is heaven? It is the reward 947 01:00:38,720 --> 01:00:41,960 Speaker 1: of a life wisely spent on earth, for it will 948 01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:46,400 Speaker 1: mean that automatically we reach those who we love. Heaven 949 01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:49,800 Speaker 1: and hell are mental states. Of course, those who dwell 950 01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:54,000 Speaker 1: on higher planes can, if they desire, visit spirits on 951 01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:58,080 Speaker 1: relatively lower spheres. This they often do, but it is 952 01:00:58,160 --> 01:01:01,479 Speaker 1: impossible for those on lower or planes to visit those 953 01:01:01,600 --> 01:01:05,000 Speaker 1: un higher. In many cases, those who die go through 954 01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:08,120 Speaker 1: a difficult period of stress due to the fact they 955 01:01:08,120 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 1: cannot reach the ones they love on earth. When they 956 01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:14,320 Speaker 1: have awakened to an understanding of their new life, they 957 01:01:14,440 --> 01:01:17,439 Speaker 1: naturally return to their loved ones and try to tell 958 01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:20,880 Speaker 1: them of their survival. They find it hard to understand 959 01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:24,640 Speaker 1: that while they can see the earthly members of their families, 960 01:01:24,880 --> 01:01:28,240 Speaker 1: the bereaved are unable to sense the presence of those 961 01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:31,440 Speaker 1: for whom they are mourning. This is a very poignant 962 01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:35,600 Speaker 1: sorrow that thousands of spirits experience. They do all they 963 01:01:35,680 --> 01:01:39,320 Speaker 1: can to attract the attention of earthly friends, but too 964 01:01:39,360 --> 01:01:43,320 Speaker 1: often they fail and cannot console them by some law 965 01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:46,400 Speaker 1: which we do not understand. Those on the other side 966 01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:50,160 Speaker 1: know a little beforehand when someone is going to pass 967 01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:54,080 Speaker 1: from this world. They make the necessary preparations to greet 968 01:01:54,160 --> 01:01:57,720 Speaker 1: them and to help them with their passing. This explains 969 01:01:57,760 --> 01:02:01,440 Speaker 1: the fact that on hundreds of occasion, people before they 970 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:05,680 Speaker 1: die have named dead relatives they said could see them 971 01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:09,600 Speaker 1: in the room. Sometimes these spirit relatives have been seen 972 01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:14,480 Speaker 1: by those in attendance on the dying person. Clairvoyance who 973 01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:17,840 Speaker 1: have witnessed the death of an individual tell us that 974 01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:21,440 Speaker 1: they can see a replica of the physical body gradually rise, 975 01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:25,000 Speaker 1: connected for a while by a thread. It is what 976 01:02:25,080 --> 01:02:28,960 Speaker 1: the Bible describes as a silver cord which is attached 977 01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:32,600 Speaker 1: to the vicinity near the brain. When the thread is snapped, 978 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:37,800 Speaker 1: death takes place. This etheric body is then seen to 979 01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:42,200 Speaker 1: rise upwards until it disappears from view. The one thing 980 01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:45,640 Speaker 1: that brings the greatest sorrow to those who have passed 981 01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:50,840 Speaker 1: on is our excessive grief. This, curiously enough, acts as 982 01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:54,480 Speaker 1: a deterrent to them getting close to us. They do 983 01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:57,919 Speaker 1: not like the constant visits to the graveyard, as they 984 01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:02,600 Speaker 1: know they are not there. Most spiritualists make a habit 985 01:03:02,640 --> 01:03:05,680 Speaker 1: of placing flowers near the photograph of the one who 986 01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:11,520 Speaker 1: has passed on, particularly remembering anniversaries. This serves to perpetuate 987 01:03:11,560 --> 01:03:14,919 Speaker 1: the idea that the spirit is constantly in the home. 988 01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:20,360 Speaker 1: Spiritualists also indulge in the habit of mentally communicating with 989 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:23,880 Speaker 1: those who have passed on by sending them messages and 990 01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:27,520 Speaker 1: treating them as if they were actually present in the room. 991 01:03:27,560 --> 01:03:31,120 Speaker 1: I know that these messages are received, for again and 992 01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:35,760 Speaker 1: again I have heard Spirit return thanks for this communion. 993 01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:42,240 Speaker 1: Apart from labor, there is opportunity for recreation and enjoyment. 994 01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:46,840 Speaker 1: There are means of education and instruction in all branches 995 01:03:46,880 --> 01:03:50,960 Speaker 1: of life, in just that particular form of knowledge which 996 01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:55,280 Speaker 1: the spirit desires. Of course, many of them are engaged 997 01:03:55,360 --> 01:03:59,600 Speaker 1: on tasks which mean cooperation with people in this world. 998 01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:02,080 Speaker 1: Some of them are hard at work helping to make 999 01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:07,040 Speaker 1: communication between the two worlds easier. Others attracted by people 1000 01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:11,800 Speaker 1: in our world who are following similar lines of research, industry, art, 1001 01:04:11,920 --> 01:04:17,160 Speaker 1: or reform naturally returned to inspire those efforts. Although often 1002 01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:22,880 Speaker 1: people in this world are unconscious of spirit interest, I 1003 01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:27,320 Speaker 1: wholeheartedly recommend you study the philosophy of Silver Birch and 1004 01:04:27,400 --> 01:04:32,280 Speaker 1: visit Spiritual Truth Foundation dot org.
