I'm Sanders Champlain. For almost twenty 11 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 1: five years, I've been on a journey to prove the 12 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: existence of life after death. On each episode will discuss 13 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: the reasons we now know that our loved ones have 14 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:04,320 Speaker 1: survived physical and so will we. Welcome to Shades of 15 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: the Afterlife. So. I don't know why this is, but 16 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: we often think of people who believe in the afterlife 17 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: as wearing long flowing gowns, gypsies, fortune tellers, and some 18 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: of the New age weirdos. Can I say, and I 19 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 1: feel very strongly about dispelling that because it's just not true. 20 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: There's some mainstream people who believe in the afterlife just 21 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: as much as anyone. So I want to introduce you 22 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: today to Suzanne Geeseman, who has retired at US Navy commander. 23 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: She's the author of eleven books. She's an inspirational speaker 24 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: and an evidence based medium. She has been recognized by 25 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: Dr Wayne Dyer and afterlife researcher Dr Gary Schwartz. While 26 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: she was in the U. S. Navy, Suzanne served as 27 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: a commanding officer, as a special Assistant to the Chief 28 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: of Naval Operations, and as an aid to the Chairman 29 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on nine eleven. In 30 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 1: addition to earning the Defense Distinguished Service Medal, she has 31 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: a master's degree in National Security affairs and taught political 32 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:20,959 Speaker 1: science at the US Naval Academy. Suzanne, welcome, Thanks Sandra. 33 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: Great to be here, Oh great to have you. I 34 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 1: spent the morning looking at your website and I'm thinking, oh, 35 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: you're just a gold mine in a good way. When 36 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: you can read and watch the short film that you 37 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 1: have on your on your website and to get filled 38 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: with goose bums, I know it'll be a good conversation. Yeah, 39 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 1: So if you don't mind if we can just start 40 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 1: off just finding out a little bit about you, and 41 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: how does a gal end up being a US naval 42 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: commander and then turn into a medium. I mean, that's 43 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: quite a jump. Yeah you were reading that bio. When 44 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: I wanted to sit up straight in my chair and 45 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 1: salute you, I just went right into the navy mode. 46 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: Derek's very much a part of me and people that 47 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:05,679 Speaker 1: see me. I stand up straight to though, and I 48 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 1: can go into commander motive I need to, but I've 49 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 1: swung the other way now from left brain to right brain, 50 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,119 Speaker 1: and then when I work now as a medium, trying 51 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,399 Speaker 1: to balance the two and it's it's it's working out 52 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: pretty well. But to answer your question, unfortunately, like many 53 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: people who have a spiritual awakening or a big transition 54 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: in their life, mind came about after the death of 55 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 1: my stepdaughters. That was a huge wake up call for me. 56 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: Yeah when was that? That was ten years ago? Already 57 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: time fly so fast, but so much has changed in 58 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: those ten years. And the beautiful part is, just like 59 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: you're titled, we don't die. That's what I learned from 60 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: Susan's passing, because I didn't know that when she passed 61 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: I didn't have any idea there was an afterlife when 62 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: I was in the Navy on nine eleven, when so 63 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: many people in the building where I worked that we're 64 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: to the Pentagon, so many were killed, and flying over 65 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: the World Trade Center on the last plane in the 66 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: airspace on that day, and looking down on that thinking, 67 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: you know, why are some people in the wrong place 68 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: at the wrong time. I had no idea at that 69 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: point that we don't die. But as a result of 70 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: nine eleven and Susan's death, I know that that is 71 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,160 Speaker 1: the greatest truth of all of it that changes lives. 72 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: When we realized that after Susanne, our Susan passed, was 73 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 1: that when you just started looking for answers? And how 74 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: did you begin that journey? Well, it was nine eleven. 75 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: It started me asking to the answers because I was 76 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: really up close and personal there, and I took the 77 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: traditional path of looking turning to organized religion, and because 78 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,359 Speaker 1: I had been raised with no religion, and that it 79 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: just didn't resonate with me. And so I put my 80 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: searching to the side. And as I tell people, the 81 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: universe has a way of making sure we learned the 82 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: lessons we came here to learn, and there were many 83 00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 1: cats to get to truth, and the truth being that 84 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 1: we don't die. And so then when Susan passed, that's 85 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: when I remember looking down at her body and the 86 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 1: confidence saying, that's not Susan, that's not Susan. So if 87 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: it's not, and who is she? Who who are we in? 88 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: And where is the spirit that enlivened that body? It 89 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: has to still survive. So I took my husband, I 90 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: retired maybe Destroyer Captain to a medium that session. Yeah, 91 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 1: that just changed our life, because, thank you God, we 92 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: were led to an evidence based medium who brought through 93 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: irrefutable evidence that our Susan was right there in the 94 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: room with us. I remember it took me at least 95 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: three days to process that. I walked around in the 96 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 1: day is thinking, wait a minute, you mean she really 97 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: is still with us? That's what I wanted to know. 98 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: But she she really is. It was life changing And 99 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 1: now you and I do that for other people. Can 100 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: you give us an example of one of one of those? Yeah, 101 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: well as I know for myself too. When I first 102 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: heard things that like, there's no other way any human 103 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 1: being can notice unless like after death is true well being? 104 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: The skeptic that I was, and learning to ensure that 105 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: my husband also knew this was real. If it was real, 106 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: I didn't give the medium my last name, so I 107 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: knew she couldn't google the tribute that we had this 108 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: Susan online, so she knew nothing about our loss. And 109 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: she brought through a young woman who died in her twenties, 110 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 1: who showed up in a brown uniform. Susan was a marine, 111 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: a sergeant in the Marines, killed on active duty. And 112 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: Susan was struck by lightning. That's how she died. And 113 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: the medium said, I suddenly have the headache of Zeus 114 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: and Athena, and Zeus is the god with lightning boats, 115 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: and she said, I have this electrical tingly feeling all 116 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: over me. Now there's a several pieces of evidence right there, 117 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: but I would think one of the most stunning pieces 118 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: besides young woman twenties around uniform, was when she said, 119 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 1: this young woman is bringing with her a little baby 120 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: boy who she wants to introduce to you, but he's 121 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: hanging back shyly, as if he doesn't know you well. 122 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: That medium had no way of knowing that when Susan 123 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: was struck by lightning, she was six months pregnant with 124 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: a little boy. Who so I mean, what is the 125 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: other There's no other explanation for that. And Susan has 126 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: been around ever since and helping me in this work 127 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: now and kicking me in the button sometimes because that's 128 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: the way she is, and it's it's a blessing. And 129 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: so from there, Susanne, there's a big jump from going 130 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: to a medium and becoming yes, yes, you're right. So 131 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: I had always had a fascination with metaphysics and the 132 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: afterlife and even reading about mediums, but I never had 133 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: a reason to go to one, and I was already 134 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,679 Speaker 1: this author at the time we went to that medium, 135 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: and now I knew I had to share with people 136 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: that this is real, that mediumship is not ru wu stuff. 137 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: This is real and they will change your life. So 138 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: I ended up writing two biographies of respective mediums, and 139 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 1: in doing so, attended the class of one of them, 140 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: and sitting in the classroom, I learned how mediums work. 141 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: That medium called me to the front of the room 142 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: and said, by the way, you can do this too, 143 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 1: and put me on the spot, and standing there before 144 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: a group of other people, she said, there's a spirit 145 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: standing here. What do you sense? Not only did I 146 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: sense a mail, but that he died of cancer. He 147 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: was an engineer, he had a full head of hair. 148 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: And oh, by the way, he gave me the name 149 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: trinkle Pose. That was his nickname. If you could have 150 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: knocked me over with a feather. Where did that come from? 151 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: How did I know that? Because he was standing right there. 152 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: It's because I had been meditating for two years at 153 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: that point. But day Susan died, I said, if she's 154 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: still alive, I want to know it and started meditating 155 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 1: a little. Did I know that was a training ground 156 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: for me still my mind? So in that moment when 157 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: the teacher said, there's a there's a man. You know, 158 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: there's a spirit standing here. Look to you sense when 159 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: I shut my eyes, I knew how to quiet my mind. 160 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: It just went blank, and that man was able to 161 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: impress himself upon me. It was beautiful and also a 162 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: good reason for all of us to continue quieting the mind. 163 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:34,680 Speaker 1: And it's a hard Yeah, I tell you, there's so 164 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: many miraculous things that happened in that mode when we 165 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:46,599 Speaker 1: can mind. Wow. Yeah. So my teacher had studied with 166 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 1: Janet no Havoc, had studied at the Arthur's Family College 167 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: looks like sciences in England. I heard it where I 168 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 1: know you've been, and I said to her, look, I 169 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: don't want to just take this halfway. I want to 170 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 1: go all the way. I want to thought he was 171 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: some of the best evidence based mediums in the world. 172 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: I'm going there, and that's where you really put your 173 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,079 Speaker 1: money where your mouth is, but the time and and 174 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: put yourself on the line. And I went over there 175 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: with the goal I want to feel these spirits. I 176 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: want to know they're really here. I want to see them. 177 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 1: All of that happened to change my life. I came 178 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: home from there just whispering, trying out the words I 179 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 1: am a medium. It was just, you know, it's like 180 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,959 Speaker 1: the last thing I ever expected. But I came home 181 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: from there with having had such good experiences bringing through 182 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: evidence that I started practicing on family and friends and 183 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: getting incredible evidence, so much so that they started referring 184 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 1: to family and friends, and the referrals, referrals, referrals, and 185 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,319 Speaker 1: and to the point now where I finally had to 186 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: stop taking referrals because I have those three people waiting 187 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: for readings with me. I get it down to a 188 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,199 Speaker 1: reasonable bule amount that I opened the waiting list again. 189 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:56,679 Speaker 1: But it's the evidence that changes life. And I'm so grateful. 190 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 1: I'm grateful. And yeah, what I experienced that are their 191 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 1: friendly college as well was just mind blowing and wonderful. 192 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,599 Speaker 1: So yeah, so now there's the jump from medium to 193 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: great medium because I have writing list that long. I 194 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: give all credits to spirit.

It's it's a 197 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: team effort, total team effort. There really hard to get 198 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 1: through this now here in the mind here in lies 199 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: the problem. You have three people waiting for you. You 200 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 1: can't get to everybody, but you can get to them 201 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: by some of the things you do.

The other 251 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: active ingredient in this is silicates, which are almost like 252 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: a clay, their minerals, and they're making the skin sort 253 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 1: of tighter.

Welcome back to Shades of the Afterlife. 264 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: I'm Sander Champlain and we are here with Suzanne Gieseman, 265 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: retired U S. Navy commander, now medium and teacher. Suzanne, 266 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: you're just saying that meditating, quieting the mind is one 267 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: of the first ways we can get in touch with 268 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: our loved ones, quieting the mind, sitting quietly with the 269 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: intention of connecting. And you know, I want to get 270 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: away from calling it meditation too, because it's you know, 271 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: having studied it at Arthur Findley College. There's another term 272 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 1: that I find more empowering, and that is sitting in 273 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: the power. Love that and we do that when we 274 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 1: sit quietly. And I have a new method that I'm 275 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: teaching now in my courses and in my online course 276 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 1: is called the bless Me Method. Military people like acronyms. 277 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: So I said to myself, when I sit in the power, 278 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: what is it that I do to connect with spirit? 279 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: And this is going to be the real abbreviated version 280 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: because I am in the process of writing a whole 281 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: book about this. But it's seven steps. First the blessed 282 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: me and then B is focused on the breathing to relax, 283 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: and then lift your consciousness. That's the IL in any 284 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: number of ways thinking things. Are grateful for focusing on 285 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: the heart. And then the E is expand your consciousness. 286 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: Lots of visualizations for doing that, and then the S 287 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 1: and S and bless me is surrender your focus on 288 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: this reality to human reality and then shift that's the second. 289 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: Shift your awareness to that part where we're all one, 290 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: to the level of the soul, and then m e 291 00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 1: and merge, merge your consciousness your loved ones to have passed. 292 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 1: You do it with intent, you do it with belief 293 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 1: that it's possible. And then the E is just experience 294 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: what happens. So it's breathe, lift, expand surrender and shift, 295 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: merge and experience. This is the rapid version. But I'm 296 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 1: all kinds of videos I'm going to be putting out 297 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: in the future and doing webinars on this, lots of 298 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 1: tools to just know that that other level is there, 299 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 1: where our loved ones are. You're there now as a soul, 300 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: but you may not know it who you surrender and 301 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:38,120 Speaker 1: shift your focus. It's easy to forget or not even 302 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 1: be aware of the way that we can connect with 303 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: other people is we are souls and we just happen 304 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: to have a human body. So it's not crazy to 305 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: think that we can do this ourselves. We will do 306 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 1: it all the time. Yeah, yeah, you read somebody when 307 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 1: they walk in the room, you're reading their energy. Are 308 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: you either resonate with someone or there's a little dissonance there? 309 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: You know who's calling on the phone before it even ring. 310 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,400 Speaker 1: You read your partners thoughts. Because your energy field intermingle 311 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 1: so often you're just merged without even knowing it. That's 312 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: the soul, the energy aspect of us. M. I love 313 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 1: the Blessed Method. Can you talk a little bit about 314 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,880 Speaker 1: the film. Oh, that was the colest thing in itself. 315 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,400 Speaker 1: I mean, my goal has helped me reach as many 316 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: people as possible with this message that we don't die. 317 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: And I gave a reading to a woman who didn't 318 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 1: even know what medium sip was. Somebody just said, hey, 319 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: you're stuck in your grief, go see this woman, Susanne Eiseman. 320 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:34,920 Speaker 1: So she sat with me and her husband on the 321 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: other side. Came through so clearly, and it was life 322 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: changing for her. What turns out, her son there is 323 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: a filmmaker, and she said, uh, I think he needs 324 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: to do a film about this woman who had had 325 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 1: this incredible transition from maybe commander and aid to the 326 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: chairman to now a medium. And so he did this 327 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: wonderful documentary, really truthful. There was no need to sensationalize 328 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: it at all, and it has played at at least 329 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,920 Speaker 1: a film festivals and done very well, because it goes 330 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: straight to the heart. So I'm very proud of that 331 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: documentary the hope. Would you mind sharing what your website 332 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,359 Speaker 1: is because there's also a link on your website to 333 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 1: watch the film.

That's the 337 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: second blessing that comes from doing this work is the 338 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 1: transformation that happens when you tap into who we are. 339 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 1: It's amazing, life changing. We thanks Susanne for being here 340 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 1: and now we're going to stick with the U. S. 341 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: Navy and meet Chief Petty Officer Tony Woody, who has 342 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: a career of twenty two years with honorable service. He 343 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: was a P three Oriyan aircraft flight engineer for over 344 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 1: twenty years. What happened to him, well, his pilot botched 345 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 1: an engine out emergency landing and the plane suddenly departed 346 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: the runway at over a hundred and fifty miles per 347 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: hour and narrowly missed slamming into an emergency response vehicle. 348 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 1: This cause Chief Petty Officer Wouldy to suddenly have a 349 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 1: profound out of body experience. Welcome Tony, Thank you, Sander. 350 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 1: It's very much a pleasure to be here. I'm looking 351 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,199 Speaker 1: forward to working with you. Let's see a little bit 352 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,119 Speaker 1: about you. How did you end up getting involved with 353 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: the Navy to begin with? You grew up in Texas. Yeah, 354 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: small town in Ease, Texas, really small. I mean I 355 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: had the same first grade teacher my dad did. And 356 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: I was the second to the youngest of six kids, 357 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 1: so that should tell you something. Yes, And my dad 358 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 1: had was in World War Two and when he was 359 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: in the service when he was younger, and so not 360 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,679 Speaker 1: a whole lot of opportunities in East Texas where I 361 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 1: grew up. When you graduate high school, couldn't afford to 362 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: go to college at the time. So I followed my 363 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 1: dad footsteps and joined the Navy. Back then, they had 364 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: a commercial on television that said the Navy it's not 365 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: just a job, It's an adventure man. That was a 366 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 1: gross understatement, I have to say. And so I joined 367 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: the Navy, went to boot camp and did a little training. 368 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 1: I was going to be an engine mechanic originally aviation machinists. Mate. 369 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,199 Speaker 1: So what's that called? Is what that is called but 370 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: a jet engine mechanic. And when I got to my 371 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 1: first command, I got sent to a P. Three O'Ryan 372 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: squadron in Jacksonville, Florida. And at eighteen years old, when 373 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 1: you first get to your first command as a junior 374 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 1: and listed, they put you in what's called the first 375 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: lieutenant division where you do these you know, the jobs 376 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 1: nobody else wants to do. And so I was at 377 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: that time put in the squadron snack bar. Each command 378 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: had their own little snack bar, and I was running 379 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 1: the register and the commanding officer came in there. I've 380 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: never met him. He was in his flight suit and 381 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: I asked him what it was like to go flying 382 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: one of those big old birds, and he said, come 383 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 1: with me Son in Australia. And that very day, uh, 384 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 1: he hooked me up with a flight engineer, followed him 385 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 1: around for a couple of hours and he showed me 386 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 1: what he did on a pre flight. And then I'm 387 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 1: in the flight station at the approach into the runway 388 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 1: after we've started the engines and everything, and we're waiting 389 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: for for a taxied and we're waiting to take the 390 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,159 Speaker 1: runway with waiting for another airplane to land. We had 391 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: a bit of a weight and the skipper return of 392 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 1: the engineer and said, what do you think should we 393 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: put him in there? He goes yeah. Next thing I know, 394 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: the engineer gets out of his seat and they tell 395 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: me to get in the chair, and uh, I'm pushing 396 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: power levels now all of a sudden, eighteen years old 397 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,239 Speaker 1: and two hours earlier, I was selling hot dogs, you know, 398 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 1: so where else can you do that? And we get 399 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 1: in the air after the takeoff, the engineer standing up 400 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: behind me doing all of the checklist stuff because I'm 401 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 1: gonna know nothing nugget at that point. And after they 402 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 1: got done with the clown checklist, the skipper smacks me 403 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: on my need and says, by the way, son, you 404 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,159 Speaker 1: know you can do that job. And he knew what 405 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 1: he was doing. He saw a young kid with an interest. 406 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: He set the hook and reeled me in. And that 407 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 1: was all I wanted to do, and so I worked 408 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: at it really hard. After I got done with First 409 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: Lieutenant Division and went straight into the flight engineer shop 410 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: and started on the job training as a flight engineer. 411 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: And by the time I was twenty one years old, 412 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 1: I'd earned my wings and was the youngest man in 413 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: the history of the P three Navy community. Just been 414 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 1: around since nineteen sixty two to earn my wings as 415 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 1: a flight engineer on a P three or on aircraft, 416 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: and that started my career. Wow, really incredible. What does 417 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: the engineer do? Because I know there's different seats up 418 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: there in the cockpit. We called it the center seat 419 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 1: because it's one of the I think it's the only 420 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: airplane with a flight engineer where the engineer doesn't sit 421 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 1: off to the side in the back. You actually sit 422 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 1: facing forward, right between the pilot pilot and so on takeoff, 423 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 1: I would have been forward, and uh, I was the 424 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: one that set power on takeoff. It's also the only 425 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: plane with the flight engineer where the engineer handles the 426 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:48,199 Speaker 1: power levers. So it was very exciting for that that 427 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: first day, and I just kept at it and uh 428 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: loved it, and I was tailor made for that job. Ironically, though, 429 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 1: when I was about ten years old, I've never been 430 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,119 Speaker 1: around airplanes. I've never seen in an airplane up close, 431 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: even a small one. And we went to an air 432 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 1: base one day or a near Dallas area when I 433 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 1: was a kid, and I saw it was a large aircraft, 434 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 1: an airplane, and I just fell in love with it. 435 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,399 Speaker 1: And I told my dad that day that one day 436 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: I was going to fly on a plane like that. 437 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 1: I knew at that moment, at ten years old, I 438 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: just knew it. And eight years later that's what I 439 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 1: was doing. Well. My dad worked at a little airport 440 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 1: when he was sixteen, and he ended up going into 441 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 1: the Air Force, and plenty of stories from him and 442 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 1: went off to being captain with American Airlines, and uh, 443 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: you know, I always hear the stories of him flying, 444 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: whether whatever seat he was in the cockpit, you know, 445 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 1: I'd hear the stories and eventually made captain and yeah, 446 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,119 Speaker 1: the rest is history. Yeah, I'm sure he's got his 447 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 1: stories too. Is there's an aviation, there's a aviators will 448 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 1: tell you the definition of aviation is hours and hours 449 00:24:54,800 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 1: and hours of bordom interspersed with moments of start ter Yes, yes, 450 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 1: no question. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, So that's all great, And 451 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 1: before I forget, thank you for your service and you're 452 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: really your commitment to our country. It takes a lot, 453 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 1: and I speak for all of us college to have 454 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: all that fun, yeah, but I speak for all of 455 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 1: us for protecting our country and and doing all of that. 456 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 1: So where does the story go on to? Because I 457 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: know that you've had some incredible experiences in your career. Well, 458 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 1: I was okay. I was in Florida when I started out, 459 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 1: and so by the time I left Jacksonville, Florida, my 460 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: next set of orders, this was about six years into it, 461 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 1: almost thought and a half years, and I already had 462 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,959 Speaker 1: I don't know, probably two thousand hours light experience by 463 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: then transferred to Barber's Point Naval Air Station, Hawaii. Got 464 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: there one in the night every even year number they 465 00:25:56,320 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: have the Impact military exercise. There's a remembered the Pacific 466 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 1: is what it's called. UM. It's the largest military exercise 467 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 1: on the planet that involves numerous different countries. And so 468 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: it was my cruise turn to go flying on one 469 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 1: of the missions, and we go out for flight. So 470 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 1: we took off and we're fully loaded. Now this is 471 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 1: a seventy ton airplane, so you carry sixty two tho 472 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: pounds of fuel. So we we took off, climb, started 473 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 1: to climb out, got to about ten thousand feet and 474 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 1: had an engine malfunction on number one and we had 475 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 1: to shut it down. And you can't dump all the fuels. 476 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,919 Speaker 1: So we dumped what we could and then we had 477 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: to fly around to We got to max allow the 478 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: land weight because you don't want to run too heavy 479 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: for fear of damaging the structural intended. And we come back, 480 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: came back into land and we did the emergency brief 481 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 1: and declared an emergency and all that, and when you 482 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 1: do that, they literally put the emergency response vehicles big 483 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 1: fire trucks really is what they are. On each side 484 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 1: of the runway. You have two of a certain place, 485 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: two more further down, and two more further out, and 486 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 1: as you go past them on landing, they pull in 487 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 1: behind you and chase you, so they're right there in 488 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 1: case anything goes wrong. That's typically a good thing, but 489 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: that day it wasn't um. Unfortunately, we landed on it 490 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 1: was parallel runways. The heading was zero four zero, and 491 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: we landed on the left runway. Had we landed on 492 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: the right one, I would not be here talking to 493 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 1: you today, Tony. I think this is a good time 494 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 1: to take our break, and when we come back, we'll 495 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: let you finish the story.

What causes the skin to break down with 504 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 1: age changes that we start to look on our skin 505 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 1: starts actually in our twenties, where we get sun damage 506 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 1: and the effects of pollution and our environment start to 507 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: cause our skin to age, and we start to break 508 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: down the collagen they lasting and we get glacation, which 509 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,439 Speaker 1: is a sugar that we eat get stuck within the 510 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 1: collagen fibers and makes our skin inflexible. The Lumines skin 511 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,959 Speaker 1: caroline does two things.

Welcome back to Shades of the Afterlife. 545 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 1: I'm Sandra Champlain and we are with US Navy's Chief 546 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 1: Petty Officer, Tony Woody. Now, Tony, you were just talking 547 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 1: about coming in with the emergency landing. When we came 548 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,719 Speaker 1: in and landed, we have to go a lot faster 549 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 1: because we're heavy, and instead of landing with the normal 550 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: fuel load of about eight thousand pounds left on top 551 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 1: of your airfield when we get done with a mission, 552 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 1: we still had forty pounds a few on board, so 553 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 1: you have to fly a lot faster to keep the 554 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 1: plane in the air. So at those speeds things go 555 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 1: wrong and hurry. So we landed at about hundred and 556 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 1: thirty five knots, which is around just over a hundred 557 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: and fifty five and main mounts touched the ground. Everything 558 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 1: seemed okay. The nose gear came down and we started 559 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: to swerve to the right, and we briefed that you 560 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: expect to swork to the right because you have two 561 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 1: engines on that side giving you reverse thrus with one 562 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 1: on the other side. But the pilot put in incorrect 563 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: rudder for some reason, thinking he was putting in proper correction, 564 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: and then he jammed in more because it kept swerving 565 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: to the right, and the next thing we know, all 566 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 1: of a sudden, we're headed directly at one of the 567 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 1: fire trucks sitting on the side of the runway, and 568 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, had death coming at me over 569 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty miles an hour, and there was 570 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: absolutely nothing I could do about it. It was the 571 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: most helpless, hopeless feeling I've ever felt. And I had 572 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: a three year old son at the time, you know, 573 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: I could think about these I has a few seconds 574 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: which I was never gonna see my son again, or 575 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:24,479 Speaker 1: holding my son again, or to see my family. And uh, 576 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 1: we came so close to that fire truck that the 577 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 1: right wing tip went over the top of the fire truck, 578 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 1: and I could see the guy on the top of 579 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 1: the fire truck with the water tan and he's in 580 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: his silver fire suit. I couldn't hear him, but I 581 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: could see him screaming at the top of his lungs 582 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 1: in terror because he probably thought he was dead too, 583 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: just like, it's not what you think. You're gonna die. 584 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 1: You know it, you know it, it's coming, you know it, 585 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: and I'm dead. There's nothing I can do here it comes. 586 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 1: And all of a sudden, I found myself out of 587 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: the airplane, literally above and to the right of the airplane, 588 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: and I'm still seeing the perspective from my flight engineer 589 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: seat too. I'm in two places at once, and I'm 590 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 1: very confused. I don't understand what's going on. But the 591 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: for me that was out of the airplane, I call 592 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,440 Speaker 1: it fractured consciousness. I don't know what else to call it. 593 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: The part of me that was outside the airplane could 594 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: see the propellers spinning, and everything was in super slow motion. 595 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 1: It was like a time distortion thing. And I literally 596 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 1: watched the propeller, which is thirteen feet from tip to tip, 597 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: weighs pounds, spends it a thousand and twenty rounds a minute, 598 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 1: and it's moving forward at a hundred and fifty plus 599 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 1: miles an hour. I watched it gap the front left 600 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 1: corner of the fire truck as the blades were spending. 601 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 1: They just went over the fire truck, but they gapped 602 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 1: it and went past it. Or a split second one 603 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 1: way or the other, that propeller would have slammed into 604 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 1: that fire truck. It was literally like, I bet you 605 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: couldn't have gotten a piece of paper between those the 606 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 1: fire truck and the and the propeller blade when it 607 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:17,720 Speaker 1: went through. Yeah, and that really was amazing to see 608 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 1: that from that perspective. And then the plane is now 609 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 1: leaving the runway at about thirty five degree angle across 610 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 1: the asphalt between the runways, and it's throwing up all 611 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:32,400 Speaker 1: this dust and debris and all of us. I started 612 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 1: seeing that, and then the next thing I know, my 613 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:38,280 Speaker 1: consciousness is fracturing into to where all these other anything 614 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,760 Speaker 1: that was floating in the air, any piece of debris, 615 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 1: didn't matter what it was. I was in that location 616 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: to all these perspectives, is all the debris flying around, 617 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,279 Speaker 1: I'm flying around with each one of them. You would 618 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 1: think it would seem very chaotic, but it had this 619 00:34:54,320 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 1: feeling of sublime perfection where I knew every a piece 620 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,240 Speaker 1: of debris was exactly where it was supposed to be 621 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: be doing what it was supposed to be doing when 622 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 1: it was supposed to be doing it, and there was 623 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: this absolute calm effect going on, which I didn't know 624 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:14,839 Speaker 1: if I was dead, I didn't know what was going on. 625 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 1: I was just totally confused trying to understand what was 626 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 1: happening to me, and I still had the perspective of 627 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 1: me being in the flight engineer seat as well, and 628 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: we ended up going all the way across the asphalt 629 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 1: between the two runways. I could see the fire trucks 630 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 1: chasing us all of that. It was just totally strange. 631 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 1: We finally came to a stop half on, half off 632 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 1: the other runway. We literally went all the way across 633 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 1: to the other runway runway for right, and by the 634 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 1: time we realized plane was okay, fire trucks caught up 635 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: to us and we ended up adding power and finishing 636 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 1: the rollout on another runway. So I literally did a 637 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:54,280 Speaker 1: three inchine emergency landing and a four engine heavyweight aircraft 638 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: and used did one approach and one landing and used 639 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 1: two entirely different runways to do that with, so I 640 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 1: didn't know what to say or anything. I looked at 641 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 1: the co pilot. I watched him when he came off 642 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,200 Speaker 1: his adrenaline rush, and he looks at me, and I 643 00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 1: look at him and I'm like, did you see that? 644 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 1: He said hell, yeah, But I don't think he understood 645 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 1: what I was really talking about. And I didn't know 646 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:23,240 Speaker 1: how to express it at the time, and it was just, Uh. 647 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: I just did my job at that point. I didn't 648 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 1: know what else to do, but it confused me, So 649 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,320 Speaker 1: I didn't say anything to anybody that day. The next day, 650 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 1: they wouldn't do this these days. But the next day 651 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:36,319 Speaker 1: we did a refly and the commanding officer took the 652 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 1: pilot and myself back out this shoote touch and goes, 653 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 1: and I started having post traumatic stress on the first approach, 654 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 1: and I didn't even think about it might affect me 655 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,399 Speaker 1: that way I had looked at that term wasn't even 656 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: developed yet. Post traumatic stress disorder didn't even exist back then, 657 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: you know, back then they put you back on the 658 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,439 Speaker 1: horse and see if he could ride. So I bent 659 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,319 Speaker 1: forward because I didn't want to skip or to see 660 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 1: my face, and I couldn't look outside on the first 661 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 1: few approaches, and I had to because of the terror 662 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 1: that I was experiencing. So I got through that day 663 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 1: and that flight. After several landings, I was finally had 664 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,360 Speaker 1: convinced myself I could do the job. And it's probably 665 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:17,480 Speaker 1: the only time that I'll ever run off the runway 666 00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 1: and get your head back in the game. But I 667 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,200 Speaker 1: knew if the commanding officer saw my face, you'd realized 668 00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:25,240 Speaker 1: I wasn't able to do that job at that point. 669 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:28,200 Speaker 1: But I got through it. And then on Wednesday that 670 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 1: happened on the Monday that the incident. Did the original 671 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: haircraft incident the refly happened on a Tuesday. Then on 672 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 1: Wednesday there was this television show. I know this kind 673 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:42,240 Speaker 1: of sounds unrelated, but for some reason, uh, something happened 674 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 1: on that Monday that opened a gateway. Somehow, I don't 675 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 1: understand it. I went to bed that night after my 676 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 1: wife and I had watched the television show that came 677 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: on back then called That's Incredible, and they had this 678 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 1: man on their name, Leslie limp Key Illiam Katie. I 679 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 1: think you can still look him up on you too, 680 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,240 Speaker 1: so I'm not gonna go into any details about his story. 681 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:06,280 Speaker 1: But what I felt was I was seeing my first miracle, 682 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,240 Speaker 1: and I now understand everything is a miracle. I didn't 683 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,440 Speaker 1: understand that at twenty four years old. But I went 684 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 1: to bed that night and said just a simple prayer 685 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 1: of genuine gratitude, really short prayer, I'll never forget it, 686 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 1: just thanking God for allowing me to see my first miracle. 687 00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 1: And then I added the words, and it would be 688 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,760 Speaker 1: nice if you could do something like that for me someday. 689 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 1: And you make that statement in your head and you 690 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 1: don't really expect anything, you know of it, right, Why 691 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,759 Speaker 1: would you? But that's what I said in my head, 692 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 1: and I never forgot that. And I went to sleep. 693 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 1: And then sometime in the middle of the night I 694 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 1: used to call old dark thirty in the military. I 695 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 1: don't know three thirty or so, or four in the morning, 696 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 1: I don't know what it was, but it was still 697 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 1: very dark and very early. There was this instantaneous shift 698 00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 1: and location of my consciousness. I didn't go through a tunnel, 699 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:05,399 Speaker 1: I didn't physically get injured or physically die, but all 700 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 1: of a sudden, I'm in this black void, and I'm 701 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 1: seeing this absolutely beautiful golden white liquid molten christianan white 702 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:20,920 Speaker 1: light that was pouring out energy in all directions of 703 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 1: just profound unconditional love. And I instantly knew I was 704 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 1: in the presence of my Creator. You can't not know, 705 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: because the energy from I call it the heart of 706 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: God was pouring right through me, expressing to me on 707 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 1: a extremely intimate level what God felt about me as 708 00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 1: an individual and as a as one of God's children. 709 00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,880 Speaker 1: That's the way I do it now. I was being 710 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:52,759 Speaker 1: flooded with profound, unconditional love on a cosmic scale that 711 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 1: cannot be expressed in human words. And I said the 712 00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 1: three words and just shared, dumbfounded all of my what 713 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 1: I was seeing, feeling, and experiencing. I said, oh, my goodness, 714 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 1: And the instant I said the word goodness, the essence 715 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 1: of goodness on a cosmic scale poured through me, and 716 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,399 Speaker 1: I could feel the difference between goodness and love, and 717 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,799 Speaker 1: the love was by far the most power I could 718 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 1: I was one with the infinite power too. I've felt it. 719 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:34,160 Speaker 1: It was this unbelievably infinite feeling of infinite power that 720 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:39,479 Speaker 1: was under absolute, perfect control, and it was equally as 721 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:43,319 Speaker 1: powerful as it was, it was also equally benevolent on 722 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: the same level. And I knew anybody will know that 723 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:50,520 Speaker 1: if that being didn't want you to exist anymore, you 724 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 1: would be wiped out in an instant. But I also 725 00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:56,879 Speaker 1: knew how precious I would was. This individual, this being 726 00:40:56,880 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 1: of life creator I call my God, was expressing to 727 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:06,959 Speaker 1: me with energy how deeply loved I am, unconditionally and 728 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 1: by the way, I grew up in East Texas Southern 729 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:13,400 Speaker 1: Baptist fundamentalist perspective, and so after that happened to me, 730 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:15,840 Speaker 1: I had to change my whole way of thinking because 731 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,800 Speaker 1: I did fit with what I experience, and I'm an engineer, 732 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,480 Speaker 1: so I kind of need need all the details to 733 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:25,880 Speaker 1: be to fit, you know. So the love was there, 734 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:30,080 Speaker 1: the power was immense. It was under absolute, complete control 735 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 1: and perfect control. That was in a place of perfection, 736 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 1: and I knew it. I mean you just feel it. 737 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:40,760 Speaker 1: The whole environment itself is like air dominates this area 738 00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:44,759 Speaker 1: here earth. Well, imagine the air doesn't just dominate your 739 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,680 Speaker 1: outside of you, it dominates your very cells and energy 740 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:52,640 Speaker 1: and you're in you. So there's this immutable spiritual law 741 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 1: that I call it on the other side. That prevents 742 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:57,919 Speaker 1: any negative expression of any kind from being expressed while 743 00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:00,759 Speaker 1: in the presence of that being. That's how it works there. 744 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,399 Speaker 1: I don't know how that can happen, but God, that's 745 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 1: why God's God. Not not right. So I said the 746 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:11,400 Speaker 1: three words, Oh, my Goodness, and the goodness blasted through me. 747 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:16,799 Speaker 1: Joy came next, bliss, peace, ecstasy. I was home and 748 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 1: I knew it. I was finally home, and I had 749 00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 1: this I call it this moment. I call it the 750 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:28,800 Speaker 1: urge to merge. You have this instinctive, deep desire to 751 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 1: go deeper into the light. That's all you care about. 752 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,400 Speaker 1: I was You're attracted to that light, just like a 753 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 1: moth to a flame. You can't do that. And the 754 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,840 Speaker 1: next thing I realized, I saw through the peripheral vision. 755 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,760 Speaker 1: I could see these the backs of a pair of hands. 756 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 1: We need to take a quick break in Tony. When 757 00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 1: we get back, we want to find out who's at 758 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 1: the end of these hands.

Ye, welcome back 792 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:18,600 Speaker 1: to Shades of the Afterlife. I'm Sandra Champlain and we 793 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:23,520 Speaker 1: are with US Navy Chief Petty Officer Tony Woody. And Tony, 794 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 1: you were describing this what seems like a near death experience, 795 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:33,080 Speaker 1: but it happened after your close call in the aircraft 796 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:37,479 Speaker 1: and now you are lying in your bedroom having this 797 00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 1: wild experience. So you were talking about the hands, kind 798 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 1: of curious, what are these hands doing there? Uh? And 799 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,880 Speaker 1: then the rest of the bedroom started coming into my 800 00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 1: bedroom that I was and started coming into a view 801 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:52,920 Speaker 1: peripherally That's when I realized that those were my hands 802 00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:54,880 Speaker 1: were up in the air. I had set up in 803 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:58,400 Speaker 1: bed and I had my hands up, and then I 804 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:01,040 Speaker 1: could see the rest of the room come back in 805 00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:04,800 Speaker 1: and at the foot of the bed, across the room, 806 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 1: there was no wall anymore, and the room was lit 807 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,960 Speaker 1: up like a billion stars, and I realized I had 808 00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 1: set up in bed and I was looking at my hands, 809 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,400 Speaker 1: and I think God did this for a reason because 810 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:17,319 Speaker 1: he knew I was I'm an engineer, and if I 811 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,360 Speaker 1: had not happened this way, I would have simply written 812 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:24,440 Speaker 1: this office some sort of exotic dream later. But I 813 00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:27,239 Speaker 1: couldn't do that because of the way it happened. So 814 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 1: I'm now sitting up in bed. I've got tears going 815 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:33,359 Speaker 1: down my face, and my hands were up in the air, 816 00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:36,720 Speaker 1: and I could see my wife's feet through my peripheral vision, 817 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:38,600 Speaker 1: and I could tell that her back was to me, 818 00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:42,359 Speaker 1: and I'm thinking, how can she sleep through all this? 819 00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:45,560 Speaker 1: You know, it's like a billion stars in the bedroom 820 00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:48,359 Speaker 1: and all this energy, and the wall is gone at 821 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,919 Speaker 1: the end of the room, and I literally had got 822 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:54,160 Speaker 1: in my bedroom and my I couldn't understand how she 823 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 1: could sleep through all of this, and then I went, oh, 824 00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:01,480 Speaker 1: I'm really away, this is really hapening to me. At 825 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:04,479 Speaker 1: the moment God realized that I flat out and knew 826 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:08,920 Speaker 1: I wasn't dreaming, and I was awake. The hole it 827 00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:11,360 Speaker 1: was about a ten ft circle of the wall and 828 00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:13,959 Speaker 1: ceiling in my bedroom. At the foot of the bed 829 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:18,800 Speaker 1: across the room was the light. And it all shrunk down, 830 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,920 Speaker 1: not instantly, but just over about a second or two, 831 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:25,759 Speaker 1: shrunk down to the center and went away. And I 832 00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:30,360 Speaker 1: just I'll never forget how that felt, because I just 833 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:35,320 Speaker 1: had the most the greatest love I'll ever know, ripped 834 00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:39,319 Speaker 1: away from me. And I just sat there the rest 835 00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:42,360 Speaker 1: of the night staring at the wall because there was 836 00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:48,799 Speaker 1: this residual spiritual energy still fluctuating through the wall, uh, 837 00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 1: in the wall or and I just kept praying and 838 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:55,880 Speaker 1: asking that the light, hoping that light would come back, 839 00:47:56,800 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 1: until the sun gradually started coming up. And as that happened, 840 00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,120 Speaker 1: as the room got brighter, the energy faded away in 841 00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:05,959 Speaker 1: the wall. And then my wife woke up and she says, 842 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:09,840 Speaker 1: what's wrong with you? And I had no idea it 843 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:14,799 Speaker 1: explain any of that. And uh. The following Sunday, I 844 00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 1: went to the church looking for help because I didn't 845 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:21,280 Speaker 1: know what to do with that. I needed an answer, 846 00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:25,000 Speaker 1: I needed a lot of answers, and I had no 847 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 1: understanding of what happened to me, or how that could happen, 848 00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 1: or what am I supposed to do with it. At 849 00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:32,640 Speaker 1: that point, I wasn't even considering what that meant as 850 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:34,560 Speaker 1: far as who and what I am. I'm just trying 851 00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,720 Speaker 1: to figure out, you know, what to do next? And uh, 852 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:40,600 Speaker 1: I went to a church and why and I we 853 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,799 Speaker 1: had been going to they have guests pasture there that day, 854 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 1: and he looked at me kind of oddly, And after 855 00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,279 Speaker 1: I expressed it to him, I was able to get 856 00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 1: it out. But every time I brought it up for 857 00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 1: the first few years, I started crying because it was 858 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:58,360 Speaker 1: just so overwhelming. But I was able to express to 859 00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:00,840 Speaker 1: him the story and what happened, and he turned his 860 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:02,840 Speaker 1: kind of tilted his head and looked at me a 861 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:04,759 Speaker 1: little oddly and then turned his back on me and 862 00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:08,480 Speaker 1: walked away and never said a word. And so ARE 863 00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 1: kind of got angry after that because I felt like 864 00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:13,719 Speaker 1: I got kicked out of heaven with no answers, because 865 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:15,360 Speaker 1: there were no words spoken to me when I was 866 00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:21,279 Speaker 1: in the light, just all energy of from God expressing 867 00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:25,200 Speaker 1: to me how deeply precious I am and important as 868 00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:27,759 Speaker 1: an individual. And it's the same for everybody. I'm not 869 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:31,160 Speaker 1: claiming any special status here or anything at all. I'm 870 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,960 Speaker 1: just I knew that that love and that depth of 871 00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:38,759 Speaker 1: love was for everyone, not just me. But God makes 872 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:43,680 Speaker 1: you feel so personally important and precious, and so my 873 00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:48,320 Speaker 1: best analogy what the love felt like is this, after 874 00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:51,880 Speaker 1: over thirty five years of thinking about it, and they 875 00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:54,080 Speaker 1: believe me, there's not a day that went by that 876 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:56,799 Speaker 1: I haven't thought about it since it happened. But the 877 00:49:56,920 --> 00:50:00,640 Speaker 1: love felt like I was that precious to God because 878 00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:04,279 Speaker 1: I was going to be the last newborn baby at 879 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 1: the end of the history of the life of the 880 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:09,720 Speaker 1: entire universe, and I was being loved, held and cradled 881 00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:12,160 Speaker 1: by all the mothers in all the galaxies and all 882 00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:17,000 Speaker 1: the previous history of the universe all at once. That's 883 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 1: the best analogy I've been able to come up with. 884 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:27,080 Speaker 1: That's beautiful, Tony. Does that? Does it this memory stay 885 00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:32,200 Speaker 1: in your mind better than any dream or any other memory? 886 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 1: I mean, does it stay alive? It's it's every day, 887 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:40,280 Speaker 1: It's is seared into my consciousness. There's no way anyone 888 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:43,120 Speaker 1: can ever forget anything like that. Yeah. The reason I 889 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:46,200 Speaker 1: asked that is I've interviewed many people have had near 890 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:49,480 Speaker 1: death experiences and some that have had out of body experiences, 891 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:55,719 Speaker 1: and the level of memory is as if it just happened, 892 00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:59,720 Speaker 1: and even if it's seventy years ago, it is clearer 893 00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:02,719 Speaker 1: than anything that just happened yesterday. It's more real than 894 00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:05,759 Speaker 1: anything I've ever experienced here by far. Yeah, And that, 895 00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 1: to me is just one of those signs that this 896 00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:13,399 Speaker 1: is a really divine occurrence. I've never had one, but 897 00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:17,640 Speaker 1: that is a commonality. And also that feeling of that 898 00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:21,520 Speaker 1: unconditional love that can't be put into words. Um and 899 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:26,160 Speaker 1: the light, And I feel really grateful myself that you're 900 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:29,480 Speaker 1: sharing this well, that I was one of the speakers 901 00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:32,840 Speaker 1: there at the International Association for Near Death Studies because 902 00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:35,480 Speaker 1: we're trying to get this information out to help other veterans. 903 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:40,239 Speaker 1: So I'm not a captain. It's active duty in the 904 00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:43,080 Speaker 1: Navy back when when I was there. She's a psychiatrist 905 00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:46,799 Speaker 1: or psychologist or something I can't remember which she has 906 00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:49,919 Speaker 1: done some studies and I can't remember her name because 907 00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:52,600 Speaker 1: it's a long, hard name to pronounce. She's from an 908 00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:55,760 Speaker 1: India descent. The first name is Mina, but I can't 909 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:59,319 Speaker 1: I can't say her last name is too complicated. She 910 00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:02,880 Speaker 1: told me that the statistics that they have that about 911 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:08,279 Speaker 1: fifty of veterans combat veterans are having these experiences in 912 00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:11,800 Speaker 1: the military. It's not accepted very well if you start 913 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:16,399 Speaker 1: talking about these kind of things. And so we threw 914 00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:19,319 Speaker 1: IRONS and I got involved with the International Association in 915 00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:21,600 Speaker 1: their death studies about four or five years ago when 916 00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:24,400 Speaker 1: I first heard about them. I have since been working 917 00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:28,240 Speaker 1: with Diane Corcoran, who was the former president of Iron's 918 00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 1: and she's a retired Army colonel and was a nurse 919 00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:33,560 Speaker 1: in Vietnam. And that's what Pete curR interest was when 920 00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:36,640 Speaker 1: the soldiers there were in their recovery room after surgery 921 00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:40,480 Speaker 1: were telling her that about their experiences. And she's been 922 00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:42,880 Speaker 1: pushing to try for over forty years to try and 923 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:47,239 Speaker 1: get something done about this so that the veterans or 924 00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:51,040 Speaker 1: active duty military have the ability to freely speak about 925 00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:54,040 Speaker 1: these kind of things because it is outside the military 926 00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 1: box by far. You don't talk about it because you 927 00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:58,359 Speaker 1: don't want to when you're active duty because you don't 928 00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:00,719 Speaker 1: want to be labeled crazy. I knew if I did, 929 00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 1: I would never be able to fly again, and I 930 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:06,319 Speaker 1: love being a flight engineer. So I clammed up. I 931 00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:09,760 Speaker 1: just didn't talk about it. But that doesn't work either, 932 00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:14,440 Speaker 1: And because I got angry, remember at the chaplain of 933 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:19,120 Speaker 1: the pastor, of course, and kind of got angry at 934 00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:22,520 Speaker 1: God too, because I wasn't given any answers, no words 935 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:25,360 Speaker 1: were spoken to me. It was just the energy of 936 00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:28,680 Speaker 1: all of that, and and then it was just over. 937 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:33,400 Speaker 1: And so I didn't even understand that for probably for 938 00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:36,880 Speaker 1: the first ten or fifteen years that I was experiencing 939 00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:40,400 Speaker 1: grief as well, because I had lost the greatest level 940 00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:45,520 Speaker 1: ever know And uh so it's been a very interesting ride. 941 00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:49,800 Speaker 1: So what we did with the Irons community is created 942 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:56,359 Speaker 1: a video called Understanding Veterans Near Death Experiences and it's 943 00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:59,040 Speaker 1: been very professionally done. It's about thirty six minutes long. 944 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:01,399 Speaker 1: I just want to help the the veterans, and uh 945 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,960 Speaker 1: so myself, a couple other veterans Shallow Harris and Glenn 946 00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:09,720 Speaker 1: cannot remember Glen's last name right now, um and also 947 00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:12,400 Speaker 1: a family member of a veteran that's passed already She 948 00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:18,320 Speaker 1: discusses her name's Alma how because her father was labeled 949 00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:24,000 Speaker 1: as having psychological problems because of his spiritual experience. It 950 00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:28,320 Speaker 1: had a very negative effect on his family over the decades, 951 00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:32,120 Speaker 1: as did did in mind when it ended up costing 952 00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:34,759 Speaker 1: me a marriage and they were I just had a 953 00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:38,439 Speaker 1: lot of problems adapting, readapting to this place after having 954 00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 1: had a taste of perfection. It's really hard coming back here. 955 00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:44,840 Speaker 1: The purpose of the video is to help other veterans 956 00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:51,320 Speaker 1: and to train medical professionals, whether they're military veterans, administration 957 00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:54,680 Speaker 1: or civilians. It doesn't matter because you don't have to 958 00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:58,120 Speaker 1: be in the military to have a near death experience. Uh. 959 00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:01,120 Speaker 1: And there's these type of problems are happening to everyone 960 00:55:01,480 --> 00:55:04,760 Speaker 1: that have had a spiritual experience. If they don't understand 961 00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:07,680 Speaker 1: what happened to them, it's very It changes you forever. 962 00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:11,000 Speaker 1: And so we're just trying to get this information out 963 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:14,520 Speaker 1: there to let people know there are other options, and 964 00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:17,040 Speaker 1: there are other there's a lot more information out there, 965 00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:19,120 Speaker 1: and here's where you can come get the answers. And 966 00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:22,839 Speaker 1: for the medical community, here's how to deal with it. 967 00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:26,640 Speaker 1: Here's how to help these people talk about it and 968 00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:30,360 Speaker 1: all we ever really needed was validation. I want to 969 00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:34,120 Speaker 1: thank Tony for sharing his story today because so often 970 00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:37,360 Speaker 1: we hear about these near death experiences and people have 971 00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:42,000 Speaker 1: amazing experiences, they come back with light and love and 972 00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,840 Speaker 1: psychic abilities. But there's another side of it as well. 973 00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:50,640 Speaker 1: When you get a taste of something that is so perfect, 974 00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:54,960 Speaker 1: so beautiful, this feeling of unconditional love, and then you're 975 00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:58,759 Speaker 1: transported back to earth, it's like, wait a minute, I 976 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:02,200 Speaker 1: want to be back there. What happened? And there isn't 977 00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:06,080 Speaker 1: a world that openly accepts it yet. Now there's a 978 00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:09,239 Speaker 1: great group called I am S i A n d 979 00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:13,759 Speaker 1: S dot org and it's the International Association for Near 980 00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:16,799 Speaker 1: Death Studies And if you go to their website and 981 00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:21,319 Speaker 1: you click on resources and Educational training Videos, you can 982 00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:25,239 Speaker 1: find that video that Tony was talking about.

I was going to say something else, 987 00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:44,720 Speaker 1: but I'm going to say a bear. When we lose 988 00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:49,080 Speaker 1: something and we're back to reality, it makes us feel awful. 989 00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:52,640 Speaker 1: I have a ton of free grief resources that we 990 00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:55,640 Speaker 1: Don't Die dot com.
