Hi, I'm 13 00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: Sanders Samplain. For almost twenty five years, I've been on 14 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 1: a journey to prove the existence of life after death. 15 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: On each episode, will discuss the reasons we now know 16 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 1: that our loved ones have survived physical death and so 17 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: will we Welcome to Shades of the Afterlife. On our 18 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: episode today, we are going to be talking about do 19 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: dead people watch us shower? Now. I know that's a 20 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: funny title, it's a very real question. I know in 21 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: my journey of exploration in the afterlife, that was actually 22 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 1: a question that came up in my mind. There was 23 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: a moment that I had gathered enough evidence that I 24 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:42,479 Speaker 1: believed really wholeheartedly that the afterlife was real, but I 25 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 1: needed to be pushed over the edge and have the 26 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: experience be a little bit more personal. And on a 27 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: previous episode, I talked to you about my experience collecting 28 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: electronic voice phenomena. But on that particular evening, as I 29 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: was sitting in a retreat center and up state in 30 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: New York, rain was falling on the cabin. I was 31 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: in a small cabin all by myself. I held out 32 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: my digital tape recorder. This was over the weekend when 33 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: I was taking a course in e v P, and 34 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: I remember just saying out loud, imagining my grandparents at 35 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 1: the foot of the bed and my aunt and uncle, 36 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: if you guys are real and I'm meant to tell 37 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 1: people about the truth of the afterlife, I said, I 38 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: need you to really try to talk loud, and then 39 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: I'll say good night. And then I let it record 40 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: for just about a minute, just let it record the 41 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: sound of rain drops, and then I said good night. 42 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: And of course when I played back my recording, they're 43 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: about second number forty six. On the counter was a 44 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: man's voice that said good night, Sandra, and two women 45 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: whispered good night, good night, and then a man's voice 46 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: saying good night. So that moment still gives me goose bumps. 47 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: I've got goose bumps right now. In that moment that 48 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: I heard not only the voices but my name being said, 49 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 1: it dawned on me that what we think is heaven 50 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: out there in the clouds somewhere, is actually very much closer. 51 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: So I went to bed that night, yes, excited to 52 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: hear the voices, but on another level, I felt vulnerable 53 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: and a little scared, and it hit me, are people 54 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: all around me all the time and I just can't 55 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: see them? So I was a little bit freaked out. 56 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: I have to be honest with you because, just like 57 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: the book title, do Dead People Watch You Shower? And 58 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: why I say book title is it was after that 59 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: trip that I wanted to get an answer to my question. 60 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: And there's a book called do Dead People Watch You Shower? 61 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: And Other Questions You've been all but dying to ask 62 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: a medium, by a very famous medium or anime is Concetta. 63 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: Burt TOLDI. I was on her website this morning and 64 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: it just brought a smile to my face because since 65 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: she's written that book, of course, she's super famous. She's 66 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: one of these mediums that you wait two years to 67 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 1: get a reading with. But some of her latest books 68 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 1: are do Dead People Walk Their Dogs Inside? The Other Side? 69 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 1: Here's another one, I Kissed a Ghost and I liked it. 70 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: So this lady definitely has a sense of humor, and 71 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: you can check out her website at Conchetta. Burt Toldie 72 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: dot Com. On this episode, I thought we'd like to 73 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: address that question. And also, I've got Concetta's book by 74 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 1: my side. You may never get a chance to talk 75 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: to her and I may not either, so we can 76 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: go through it together. See what she says, see what 77 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 1: I say. And I know we both have a lot 78 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: of experience with answering questions about the afterlife. So I 79 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: hope this episode is already putting a smile on your face, 80 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: because it certainly is with me. All Right, before we 81 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: get started on the big question, I'm just gonna read 82 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: to you from the back of the book. Conchennaber Toldie 83 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: has been communicating with the other sides since childhood. In 84 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 1: Do Dead People Watch You Shower? The first ever book 85 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: of its kind, she exposes the naked truth about the 86 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: fate and happiness of our late loved ones with no 87 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 1: holds barred honesty and delightfully wry humor, answering questions that 88 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 1: range from the practical to the outrageous. In addition, she 89 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: shares with us her own intimate secrets, revealing with refreshing 90 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: candor how her miraculous gift has affected her life, her marriage, 91 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: her friendships, and her career, as well as the myriad 92 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: ways she has used it to help others. Conchedibur Toldie 93 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: is a full time medium and consults regularly with members 94 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 1: of Britain's royal family, American celebrities, politicians, and others. Her 95 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,919 Speaker 1: practice has a two year waiting list. She lives in 96 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 1: New Jersey with her husband. So we're going to start 97 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 1: with the big question, do dead people watch us shower? 98 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: And does Grandma know what I like to do in bed? Oh? My, so, 99 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: Concetta answers, and let me just remind you this is 100 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 1: humor here. Sure they do, and Grandma certainly does know. 101 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: They see us in the bathroom and they see us 102 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 1: in the bedroom, But who cares? They're dead? Who are 103 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: they going to tell? Now? Don't freak out. The only 104 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: thing you need to remember is that they are not 105 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 1: in the flesh. They remember the flesh, but it's not 106 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: of any concern to them anymore. They're not judging us. 107 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: It's not like they're saying, whoa, she's got a big butt, 108 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 1: or if I were him, i'd shave that, or holy moley, 109 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 1: did you see that? Well, you get the point. The 110 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: dead are not peeping tom's. They don't get any special 111 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: thrill out of watching. It's not entertainment to them. That's 112 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 1: thinking in human terms. They just look at it like 113 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: human nature, just like we might see two animals going 114 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: at it and just looking at it as animal nature. 115 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: We might smile or even laugh, but it's not judgment. 116 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: We don't expect a couple of dogs or squirrels to 117 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: be embarrassed when we see what they're doing. Yes, the 118 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: deads certainly do see us in the shower or love making, 119 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: but it's just like we might witness an ordinary act 120 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: of human kindness. We don't judge it. We just smile 121 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: and think how beautiful they're just happy that you are 122 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: experiencing love or maybe just pleasure. They are happy for you. 123 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: The dead are not nearly as stuffy about sex as 124 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: some of us here can be. And before you even 125 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: ask the question, yes, they see all of our secret 126 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: sneaky behavior. They see as aiding the refrigerator and scarfing 127 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: down the ice cream and the leftover lasagna when we're 128 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: supposed to be on our diets, and they see us 129 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: picking our noses when we can't find a kleenex. Again, 130 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: in their eyes, it's just ordinary human behavior, no judgment. 131 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: They also see us in the operating room and in 132 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 1: the classroom and at our holiday tables. They enjoy with 133 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: us all the events we celebrate in our lives, and 134 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: they also walk us through our sorrows and heartaches. It's 135 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: a really nice way to answer that. From the experience 136 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: I have had, especially with people who have gotten a 137 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 1: glimpse of the other side, there is absolutely no judgment. 138 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 1: You know. Being here on earth is where we have 139 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: that ego. You know, what do people think of us? 140 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: Do they like me? Don't they like me? It's here 141 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 1: on earth where we feel embarrassed when we get there. 142 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: It is pure love. And remember they've had a human 143 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: life and they know what it is to lead it. 144 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: But there's no judgment. There's only love, and that's great news. 145 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: I just want to also add that when we migrate 146 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 1: to the other side, we continue our soul's journey. So 147 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:19,199 Speaker 1: we're busy, we're living our own lives. We're growing, we're experiencing. 148 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,959 Speaker 1: Some people act as greeters, some people have jobs, some 149 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: people are creating music and artwork. They're only a thought 150 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: away from us. So please don't be paranoid that your 151 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 1: loved one has nothing better to do than just to 152 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: watch you and all your intimacy. Okay, here's another question 153 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: from her book, what happens to us when we die? 154 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: Con Chetta answers. People have fears. They've heard about going 155 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: into the light, and they want to know. Does it 156 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: hurt walking into the light? Do we lose our memories? 157 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: Is everything there that we had before? What I've heard 158 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: from souls on the other side is that when we die, 159 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: we either leave through our feet or the top of 160 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 1: our head. On this side, I've heard of the silver 161 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: cord that supposedly attaches to life here, but no one 162 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: over there has ever mentioned this to me. It's hard 163 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,839 Speaker 1: to describe exactly how we are moving. It's a bit 164 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 1: like floating. It's a bit like walking, it's a bit 165 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: like flying. It's like gravitating towards the light. There's a 166 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: feeling of anticipation, maybe a little fear, but more anticipation. 167 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: Nothing at all is forgotten. In fact, whereas now we 168 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: can remember only some highlights of our past, over there, 169 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: we remember every single moment and detail everything we knew, loved, 170 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: or experienced. When we die, within seconds of entering the light, 171 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:49,319 Speaker 1: we experience an all knowing. We get a fast forward 172 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 1: review of our life and see the whole domino effect 173 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: of all of our actions. We feel everything we made 174 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: someone else, feel the joy and the hurt. We see 175 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,199 Speaker 1: and understand the whole domino effect of all of our 176 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 1: actions in every interaction we had with anyone, and we 177 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: know and understand what our purpose was in this lifetime. 178 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: There is a period of transition, a time we get 179 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: to reflect on our lives. I don't feel that this 180 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: is standardized in any way. It's different from individual to individual. 181 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: For many, there may be a necessary period of healing 182 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: any physical or emotional issues, especially for giving ourselves for 183 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: anything we did while living that we don't feel proud of, 184 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 1: or that we may have hurt someone before we are 185 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,199 Speaker 1: able to interact with this side the living again. At 186 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: all times we are given help in healing what we shoulda, 187 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: woulda could have done in our lives. Here sometimes there 188 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 1: is sadness at what we wish we could have done Differently, 189 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: we're encouraged to heal any anger or guilt. But there 190 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: is also what we think of as physical link. Even 191 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: though it's not really physical, it's spiritual. I can't tell 192 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,839 Speaker 1: you how often people who have been sick when they died, 193 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 1: maybe even have had missing parts of their bodies, have 194 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: told me in spirit that they are completely healed and 195 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 1: healthy and completely whole. Someone who may have had great 196 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: difficulty walking or even standing on this side of life 197 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: will be telling me that over there she is dancing. 198 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 1: The true beauty of the light is that it is 199 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 1: total harmony. Here we can spend a lifetime in the dark. 200 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,959 Speaker 1: We don't know what we are doing or the effect 201 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: we are having. But once we get over there, we 202 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: get a clear view of what this side is all about. 203 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: Aren't you looking forward to no aches, no pains? Picked 204 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: the perfect size, height, weight, glasses, no glasses, all those 205 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: good things, and don't be so hard on yourself. And 206 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: if there are things that you can take care of 207 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: here as you're going to have a life review there, Wow, 208 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,680 Speaker 1: we might as well get them taken care of early. 209 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,719 Speaker 1: With that, we're going to take our first break. You're 210 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: listening to Shades of the Afterlife on the I Heart 211 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: Radio and Coast to Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network. Welcome 212 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 1: back to Shades of the Afterlife. I'm Sander Champlain and 213 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 1: I am accompanied by the book Do Dead People Watch 214 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: You Shower? By Conchetta br Toldie, And we're answering some 215 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,440 Speaker 1: questions that maybe a little different that you're never thought 216 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: to ask about the afterlife. So here's one from the book. 217 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 1: Do the dead no things about our past that they 218 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: couldn't have known while they were alive? And Conchetta rights, 219 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:58,559 Speaker 1: they know everything. When they cross over, they become omniscient, 220 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 1: all knowing. They know all of our thoughts and impulses, 221 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 1: even things they didn't understand before they now see clearly 222 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: it is revealed to them why things happen exactly the 223 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: way they did. Once we crossed, we completely understand, for example, 224 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: why our mates behaved the way they did, what their 225 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: mission was, how it was related to ours. Everything behind, 226 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: anything that didn't make sense to us. Before any skeletons 227 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: in the family closet that might have been hidden from us, 228 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: we will know about. I recall a reading I was 229 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: doing for a woman and her son came through. I 230 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 1: don't recall if I was told to circumstances, but he 231 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: crossed before his mother. He told his mother that he 232 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 1: knew the person he'd always known here as his uncle 233 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: was really his father. But he wasn't accusing his mom. 234 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: He told her he understood why she couldn't say anything 235 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 1: about it, why she had to keep this hidden, what 236 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: it would have done to their family if anyone had 237 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: known it. Now, I mostly agree with Conchetta, but I'm 238 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: not sure they are like God and know everything. I 239 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: have heard from many sources that they can certainly find 240 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: out what they don't know. There's a place called the 241 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: halls of Learning or the halls of knowledge, where every 242 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: bit of information about the universe is held and we 243 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 1: continue to grow and learn. What I do agree with 244 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: is the compassion they have when they are an active 245 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: player in life with you. And there might have been 246 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: some kind of a disagreement, They're able to see a 247 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: more worldly view or universal view if you will, about 248 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: how you behaved, how they behaved. They will see the 249 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: consequences of their actions. They will see how their words 250 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: made you feel. They will understand your perspective from a 251 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: different angle and have complete compassion. So those days that 252 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: we get to see them again, and we will when 253 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: we cross over, all that will be there is compassion 254 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: and love. You'll understand from each other's perspectives why you 255 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: behaved the way you did, and the relationship will continue. 256 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 1: One more thing I want to say on this. I 257 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: know grief and the death of a loved one, specially 258 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: a parent, can rip apart some relationships that we have. 259 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: And for anyone here listening that maybe no longer has 260 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 1: a relationship with a family member or someone very close 261 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 1: to them, please know that I believe everything will work 262 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: out in the long run. Now does that mean it 263 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 1: will work out here on earth? Oh? My gosh, I hope. So. 264 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: We can certainly send our prayers are positive thoughts. But 265 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: someone very wise once said to me that relationships are 266 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 1: like a circle. At the top of the circle you 267 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 1: may go in opposite directions, but at the bottom of 268 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 1: the circle you come back together again. So while I 269 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: hope personally that our relationships mend and we do everything 270 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: we can do while we're here on the earth plane, 271 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 1: sometimes I think that certain people are certain players in 272 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: our lives so that we learn and that we grow, 273 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 1: and that we have to trust that everything will work 274 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: out in the end from the movie The Marigold Hotel. 275 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,199 Speaker 1: If it hasn't worked out, it isn't the end. So 276 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,399 Speaker 1: if you're going through this, I feel for you because 277 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: I have that going on in my life as well. 278 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,199 Speaker 1: Keep your head held high and do what you know 279 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: in your heart to be right and true. Let's get 280 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 1: onto our next question. How does religion work on the 281 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: other side? And this is what Conchetta says. Once we 282 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: cross over, there are not different religions. You don't get 283 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 1: to the other side and see eighteen desks and a 284 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 1: dispatch or directing you Muslims to the left, Jews to 285 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 1: the right, Catholics down the hall, second door to the right. 286 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: She's funny. We are all the same when we get 287 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: to the other side. We are all one. That's not 288 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: a dozen or two dozen different heaven as we go to. 289 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,919 Speaker 1: It's all the same. Place. If I'm doing a reading 290 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: for Mrs Goldberg, I get an operator. Just a minute, miss, 291 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 1: wait till I connect you with the Jewish heaven. No, 292 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 1: it's the same place for you, for me, for people 293 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 1: of every color, creed, or religion. God created these religions 294 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,439 Speaker 1: and really all of our differences because He wanted to 295 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: show us to love one another despite our differences. And 296 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,440 Speaker 1: that's not how it worked out so far. I'm sure 297 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: God is very sad about that. Do I care if 298 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 1: there's someone of every race, class, sexual orientation at my barbecue? 299 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 1: The only one who would be bothered by that is 300 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 1: someone who would not be invited to my barbecue. Now, 301 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: it's interesting she talks about that. You know, when you 302 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: look into someone's eyes, they are the window to the soul, 303 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: and you see their heart, and what should be there 304 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: is love. We are all the same inside. Looking out 305 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: of these windows are eyes, and we all have our 306 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:06,120 Speaker 1: same fears and worries and doubts. When we are here 307 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: on earth, it's so easy to feel different and separate, 308 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 1: sometimes not smart enough and not good enough. We all 309 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: have our baggage. When we get over there, though, all 310 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: we see is love, And I think wouldn't it be 311 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:24,120 Speaker 1: nice if we could start practicing that right here, right now. 312 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: I had taken a course once and we had to 313 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: partner with a stranger and literally for twenty minutes stand 314 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: very close in the personal zone, looking I too, I 315 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 1: with that person, and at first you start to giggle 316 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,719 Speaker 1: and you feel uncomfortable, and after some time there's just 317 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 1: this peace and you surrender that you really are looking 318 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 1: at another beautiful soul. So anytime you think somebody's a 319 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: little bit different, they're beautiful. They're special, just like you are. 320 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 1: In the afterlife, we will know that. But I think 321 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 1: we can accept here. And the other thing I wanted 322 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 1: to mention about religion, and this is my own perspective, 323 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: is that there can't be one religion for all people 324 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,479 Speaker 1: of the earth were just too different. But like lamps, 325 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: there could be so many different styles of lamps, right, 326 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 1: but the light remains the same. To think about that. Okay, 327 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,959 Speaker 1: next question, who are our guardian angels and do we 328 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: meet them when we die? And Conchetta says, we see 329 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 1: all of our loved ones, and even we'll recognize others 330 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 1: who we didn't even know here on this side, who 331 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 1: have been with us before. And who were helping us 332 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: during our lives from the other side. These are our 333 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 1: guardian angels. Once we heal our lives, we're ready to 334 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: start work again. Whereas before we had guardian angels. When 335 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 1: we cross over, we can become guardian angels. We are 336 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 1: given jobs. Maybe we are even sent to give some guidance. 337 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: We guide souls on this side to make good choices. 338 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: Some of us. When we are there and understand all 339 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,439 Speaker 1: the ripple effects of things we've done, we have a 340 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: hard time for giving our behavior here, so some souls 341 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 1: have the job of helping us forgive ourselves. The next 342 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: question follows right along. What is the difference between angels, spirits, 343 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 1: souls and guardians? These are really false distinctions. Conchetta says, 344 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: a soul, is a spirit, is an angel, and is 345 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 1: a guardian. They are all just different terms for the 346 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: same thing. Even if an angel or soul or spirit 347 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: isn't right at that moment pulling us out of the 348 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: path of an oncoming car, is still a guardian still 349 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: looking out for us. What I find interesting and fascinating 350 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: is to know that there are guardians or spirit friends 351 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 1: or guides that have signed up to be with us 352 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 1: for our entire life. Some have said we have a 353 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 1: main spirit guide who was with us before we came 354 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: into this life and will be one of the first 355 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 1: we see when we transition to the other side, and 356 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 1: then during our life, different guides come and go depending 357 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 1: on what we have need for. So if you start 358 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,919 Speaker 1: a new job, and say you get a job as 359 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 1: an auto mechanic, one of your guides could be giving 360 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: you thoughts and impressions and instructions about how to work. 361 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: So when we go over there, what is it that 362 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,359 Speaker 1: you're passionate about here on earth, Maybe you will be 363 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: a guide for someone else. Our guides are friends there 364 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 1: with us. They hear us, they talk to us. It 365 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: sounds like our own voice. But sometimes, and you do 366 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 1: this listen in if you ask a question and all 367 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 1: of a sudden the answer comes into your mind. They 368 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: do use our own voice, which trick us to make 369 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: us think that it's just us. But this is how 370 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: they communicate. Listen for their love, Listen for new thoughts 371 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: that come into your mind. Pay attention to new ideas 372 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: and gut feelings. It may just be one of these 373 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: divine beings there to help you. Next question, can the 374 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: dead help us find things. Concetta says, if you ask 375 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 1: them to, they will help you. Otherwise, I think they 376 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,360 Speaker 1: may like watching us go crazy, turning the house upside 377 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: down when we misplaced something. My husband John lost his 378 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 1: keys once and he looked everywhere for them. John, being John, 379 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: did not ask for help. After a month, he said 380 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 1: to me again, I still can't find those keys anywhere. 381 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,919 Speaker 1: So I asked his father, who is deceased, Leo, where 382 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: are John's keys here? I should mention that we live 383 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: in the middle of the woods on a very large property, 384 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: and it was the dead of winter when my husband 385 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 1: finally sort of for help. By this time there was 386 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: a layer of dead leaves and a fresh coat of 387 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 1: snow over everything. Leo directed me to the exact spot 388 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 1: on our property and told me to bend down and 389 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:15,639 Speaker 1: clear away the snow and the leaves, and the keys 390 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: were there. As God is my witness, I did exactly that. 391 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 1: I didn't have to try here and there. I didn't 392 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 1: have to brush away a big area. I bent down 393 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 1: one time in one place, and the keys were right there. 394 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 1: I called John at work to tell him that, with 395 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: his father's help, I had found his keys. I said, 396 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 1: now do you believe me. Now, are you impressed? And 397 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 1: he responded in true John fashion, Yes, I'm impressed. But 398 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: I'll be even more impressed when you go out there 399 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,160 Speaker 1: with my father and asked him to show you where 400 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 1: the million dollars is buried. I've got a quick personal 401 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 1: story for you. I have a very favorite set of 402 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 1: gold earrings. In fact, I'm wearing them right now. One 403 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 1: day i'd robbed an earring. I searched everywhere for it 404 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 1: and I couldn't find it, and then I started imagining, 405 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 1: could have lost it in the bathroom. Of course, I 406 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 1: take apart the sink well. The one remaining earring that 407 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 1: I had I put in a little pocket in my suitcase, 408 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: just for safekeeping. The next time I went in that 409 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 1: little pocket of the suitcase, both ear rings were there. 410 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 1: So it happens when you ask for help, because I 411 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 1: certainly did. We'll be back in just a moment. You're 412 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 1: listening to Shades of the Afterlife on the I Heart 413 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 1: Radio and Coast to Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network. Welcome 414 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:57,199 Speaker 1: back to Shades of the Afterlife. I'm Sander Champlaine and 415 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 1: I'm having a little fun today going through the book 416 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: that do did people watch you Shower? By Conchetta BERTOLDI. Now, 417 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 1: it's chock full of questions. I'm probably only going to 418 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: get to a handful of them on our episode, so 419 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 1: I encourage you to find a copy of the book. 420 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 1: It's playful, it's fun, but she's been a medium a 421 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: long time, so she's got some pretty good things to say. 422 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 1: All right, here we go, or on page seventy one, 423 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: what is it like on the other side? Is the 424 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:29,120 Speaker 1: other side actually a place? Conchetta says, well, it isn't physical, 425 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: so to call it a place probably isn't accurate. It's 426 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 1: more like a state or condition. It's paradise. It's like here, 427 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 1: except that it has a completely different quality to it. 428 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,159 Speaker 1: It's difficult to explain, but trying to think of the 429 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: worst thing anyone ever did to you in your whole life, 430 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 1: how bitter are you about that? How you might still 431 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: deep down hate that person who hurt you so badly? 432 00:26:56,520 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 1: On that other side, that intense feeling of bitterness is 433 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 1: completely gone. I have heard this over and over and 434 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:09,639 Speaker 1: over again from spirits. It's really unbelievable. It just doesn't exist. 435 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 1: All is forgiveness, all is love. The other side of course, 436 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,959 Speaker 1: is not physical, but it does have many attributes that 437 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: can seem physical. From what I have heard, anything we 438 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 1: want to have is also they're only more beautiful, more pure, 439 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:31,120 Speaker 1: more vibrant, somehow more real than we know as reality, 440 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: even though our assumption would be that when comparing physical 441 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:38,880 Speaker 1: versus spiritual, physical world would be more real. I've heard 442 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: that there are plants and gardens just like here, only 443 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: the colors are more intense. Our pets run around free 444 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 1: and we never have to worry about them being hit 445 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: by a car. I've never seen one, but I've heard 446 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 1: about grand cathedrals of crystal and light. I know that 447 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: there are many levels, and since we do retain our personalities, 448 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: we will naturally gravitate to one area or another, and 449 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 1: likely our experiences will be different. The first time my 450 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: father came to me after he crossed over, I asked 451 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 1: him what it is like on the other side. He 452 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: told me that he and my brother Harold went for 453 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: long rides of the mountains. This implies to me that 454 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: he sees the mountains and he feels the mountains. There 455 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: is no question in my mind that they have the 456 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: ability to do that. I don't know how because I 457 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 1: am limited, but I do know that God is so 458 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,199 Speaker 1: great and so grand that it would not surprise me 459 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 1: that he would give the souls that crossed back home 460 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 1: the rewards they deserve. Well, I've done a lot of 461 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: research on what they do in the afterlife. And when 462 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 1: we first arrive, it is a land of familiarity. It 463 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: is comfortable. It's something we recognize. We don't go to 464 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: some far off place that we wouldn't feel comfortable. It's 465 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: made to feel very comfortable like we have right here. 466 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: Hopefully not the bugs, but our loved ones are there 467 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:06,239 Speaker 1: to join us. We see them, we feel them, we 468 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 1: can hug them. Although we don't have physical bodies, we 469 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: do have spiritual bodies. We can change these bodies. Like 470 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: I said before, we can be in our best health 471 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: or best age, but we can create through thought where 472 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: we want to live, what we want to have. There's 473 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: some really joyful stories of some of the businesses people create. There. 474 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 1: A lot of people want to get to work on 475 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 1: things that they have not accomplished while they were on 476 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 1: the earth. So someone single like myself, who may never 477 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: get married, I don't know, we'll have the opportunity for 478 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: true love living happily ever after, or if you've always 479 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:50,959 Speaker 1: wanted to write poetry or paint or learn to fly airplanes, 480 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: you get the opportunity to do that over there. Next question, 481 00:29:56,120 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: is there any color on the other side. Conchetta says, yes, 482 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: there certainly is color, and it is brilliant. They say, 483 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: we have true beauty on this side of creation, but 484 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: this is nothing compared to what's on the other side. 485 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 1: To understand what that might be, just remember we have 486 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 1: had a hand in things on this side. God creates 487 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: it and we destroy it. We polluted, we literate, we 488 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: bulldoze forests, or we ruin rich farmland, and then we 489 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: have climate changes and dust bowls and floods. We have 490 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 1: the loss of entire species of creatures, and all sorts 491 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: of other consequences that destroy the original perfection. We do 492 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 1: have heaven on earth here if we just let it 493 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: be that, but we don't. Just imagine if we could 494 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: see the world as is from above without people messing 495 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 1: it up, and you might have some sense of the 496 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 1: brilliance of the other side. I think this may not 497 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 1: have answered your question, but I feel better getting it 498 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 1: off my chest. She says, I have heard that there 499 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 1: are colors that we have never seen with our eyes. 500 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 1: And that's hard to believe, because of course we have 501 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 1: the roy G. BIV color spectrum. When you think of 502 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 1: there's things that animals can see and insects can see 503 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: that we cannot. Why not have other colors that are 504 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 1: foreign to our earthly eyes? But we will see over there. 505 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 1: There's also music that we've never perceived in so many 506 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: other things. It will be joyful once we get there, 507 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: for sure. But let's stay here and use up everything 508 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: we can as a human being, because I do believe 509 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: with all my heart being here on earth, we're supposed 510 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 1: to go after new things and new experiences and meet 511 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: new people. And so when we all meet back up 512 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 1: on the other side, we can share our vast knowledge 513 00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 1: of experiences and stories. Here's a cute question. Is it 514 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 1: crowded on the other side? Do we have to wait 515 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: in line? Concenta says no, there's never a space problem 516 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: over there. It's paradise. It's perfection, plenty of parking for everyone. 517 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 1: Everyone has a big apartment or house. No lines in 518 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 1: the grocery store or waiting to get a lane at 519 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: the bowling alley. How could it be paradise. Otherwise nobody 520 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 1: has to leave to make room for anyone else. We 521 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 1: are all pure energy. The other side is a dimension 522 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: of pure energy space in the terms of we think 523 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 1: of it is virtually meaningless there. And it's interesting because 524 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 1: energy cannot be destroyed, right We've heard that before. If 525 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 1: you take a puddle and it evaporates, well, it just 526 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 1: changes form into vapor and maybe into a cloud, and 527 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 1: maybe it'll come down as rain on another day. Just 528 00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 1: like a log can burn, it turns into fire, flame, heat, 529 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 1: and offices. We cannot be destroyed either. And something that 530 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 1: I find really interesting is more than one form of 531 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,239 Speaker 1: energy can be in one place at one time. So 532 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: wherever you are right now, chances are there's lots of 533 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 1: other energy going on around you. There could be a 534 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: microwave of a network. There could be radio waves and 535 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: television signals and GPS signals, and could be air or 536 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: wind and music and light. These are all different forms 537 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 1: of energy. And I love the term here after because 538 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 1: I totally believe that we living on Earth are part 539 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: of their world. It is right here just after our 540 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,239 Speaker 1: human life. So I would agree we do not have 541 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 1: to wait in line when we're over there, there's plenty 542 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 1: of room for all. Next question, are there souls who 543 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: get stuck in limbo? How can a soul get out 544 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 1: of limbo? Concetta says, as I understand it, limbo is 545 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 1: a state of frustration due to not understanding. The soul 546 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: does not understand what is expected of it, what it 547 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: has done wrong, and cannot go forward and can't get 548 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:17,800 Speaker 1: to the next level in its spiritual development. To escape limbo, 549 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 1: the soul must be willing to listen to and heed 550 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: this spirit master or guide like guidance counselor. For example, 551 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 1: maybe a kid thought it would be a good joke 552 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 1: to get all the students out of class by setting 553 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: off the fire alarm. He's reported and he's expelled from school, 554 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: But he just thought it would be funny, no big deal. 555 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: He doesn't understand why he's in trouble, so the guidance 556 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: counselor maybe gives him an example of why his actions 557 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 1: weren't quite right. Then the kid gets it. He has 558 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: an understanding, realizes what he did was wrong, even if 559 00:34:56,120 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 1: he didn't intend anything bad by it. He can apologize 560 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 1: us and get back into class. But if he doesn't 561 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 1: get the understanding and he's let back into class. He 562 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,280 Speaker 1: may do the same thing over again or something worse, 563 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: but with understanding he's able to move on. And spiritual terms, 564 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 1: it's the same thing. We can't get to the next 565 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: level without gaining the understanding of the level we're on. 566 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 1: Once we do, we're given a new chance, a new 567 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 1: mission that can set us off with improved attitude. Well, 568 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,359 Speaker 1: I may tend to disagree just a little bit with 569 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 1: Conchetta on this one. I've studied at the great Arthur 570 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: Finlay College where really mediumship was born way back in 571 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 1: the day, and all the best in all the ancient 572 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:47,160 Speaker 1: medium said, you're either here or you're over there. You 573 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 1: are not stuck. Now. Where the disagreement might come in 574 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,719 Speaker 1: is say we hold true to a belief that there 575 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:58,319 Speaker 1: is no afterlife, or that we're atheist, and then all 576 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 1: of a sudden we're dead. Maybe people come to greet us, 577 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:06,280 Speaker 1: maybe there's a light in a tunnel. We can actually 578 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 1: put our foot down, so to speak, and not believe it. 579 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:14,280 Speaker 1: We can choose to create the reality we want temporarily 580 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,879 Speaker 1: while we adjust to the other side. Fear not. There 581 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 1: are loving beings, your family members just waiting and giving 582 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 1: you the little nudge to say, you know what, come 583 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 1: out and play with us. It's safe. You are alive 584 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 1: and you're okay. So I don't really believe there's much healing, 585 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 1: if any, to be done like that. You are welcomed 586 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:41,799 Speaker 1: with open arms and loved all right. Next question, quick 587 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 1: and easy? Can the dead talk with one another? Concenta 588 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 1: says yes, definitely, not talk exactly. Language is irrelevant. They 589 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 1: communicate by thought telepathically. Thought is universal. If you are 590 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,439 Speaker 1: thinking I'm hungry, that thought is the same no matter 591 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 1: what language you speak. Over there, spirits talk and heavenly 592 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,880 Speaker 1: instant messages and so funny because I think we have 593 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,719 Speaker 1: that power here. You ever know what somebody's going to 594 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,239 Speaker 1: say just before they say it. I also took a 595 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 1: class in remote viewing and we did this amazing project. 596 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: In fact, I brought it home and share it with 597 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 1: my sister and my niece Julia. We asked my sister 598 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 1: to put a picture in her mind of what she's 599 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: thinking and really concentrate on it. So my sister was 600 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 1: driving the car, she was thinking of this picture, and 601 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 1: at the exact same time, my niece Julia and I said, 602 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:41,280 Speaker 1: a bouquet of a dozen red roses. Well, my sister 603 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 1: was so shocked that she had to pull over the 604 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 1: car and stop, and she's like, how did you guys 605 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 1: do that? And we really have no idea. There is 606 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 1: telepathic communication and we've got it right now. So we'll 607 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:56,359 Speaker 1: take our next break and then we'll see what other 608 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 1: questions we can come up with. You're listening to Shades 609 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 1: at the Life on the I Heart Radio and Coast 610 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 1: to Coast, a paranormal podcast network. Welcome back to Shades 611 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 1: of the Afterlife. We are here asking some unique questions 612 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,640 Speaker 1: from the book that do dead people watch you? Shower? 613 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 1: By Conchetta bar Toldy. Next question, do the dead still 614 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 1: retain their five senses? Concetta says no, Our five senses 615 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: are of the body, and of course the dead are 616 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 1: of the spirit. They can't smell or taste anything, but 617 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 1: they don't eat anything anymore, so it's not like it's 618 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 1: really a loss. It's no big deal. They can't feel 619 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:58,400 Speaker 1: anything themselves, but they can touch us. It's not a 620 00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 1: physical touch, like a finger, it's energy, so it feels 621 00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 1: like a small electric shock, not strong enough to hurt anyone, 622 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:10,800 Speaker 1: but enough to startle you. So what's interesting about this 623 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: is I've been told by some great sources that they use, 624 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 1: or we will use, our memory of certain things. Now, 625 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,320 Speaker 1: if I were to ask you right now to close 626 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:26,399 Speaker 1: your eyes and imagine you take a big lemon out 627 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 1: of the refrigerator, and you can feel how cold it is. 628 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,280 Speaker 1: And if you see yourself putting it on a cutting 629 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:36,720 Speaker 1: board and slicing into it and having a wedge of lemon, 630 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 1: and you can see all the juices kind of squirting 631 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 1: out of it. And if you were to imagine bringing 632 00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: that lemon right to your lips and right to your 633 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 1: mouth and taking a big bite, what happens. Chances are 634 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 1: you're listening right now and you're salivating because you can 635 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 1: taste that lemon, and you can see it, and you 636 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 1: remember how it feels. The same thing holds true in 637 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:02,839 Speaker 1: the afterlife. You can eat and drink if you like to, 638 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:09,399 Speaker 1: but again you're remembering the experiences. So while you may 639 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:12,359 Speaker 1: want to have a dinner party, you don't technically have 640 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:15,920 Speaker 1: to eat, you don't technically have to sleep, but it 641 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:19,279 Speaker 1: may be something you're accustomed to doing, so you can 642 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,319 Speaker 1: do it. And as far as the touch goes, I 643 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 1: was doing a great meditation yesterday, and we have regular 644 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 1: events that we do online. As you may know, I 645 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 1: was sitting with my eyes closed as Scott Milligan was 646 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 1: leading us through, and it was to be in touch 647 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:41,239 Speaker 1: with our loved ones. Now, our loved ones can see us, 648 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:45,319 Speaker 1: touch us, hear us, witness what we're doing, but from 649 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 1: our point of view, it's very difficult to sense them. 650 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 1: So on this specific meditation, we closed our eyes, we relaxed, 651 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,400 Speaker 1: and quite as some time passed that we were just 652 00:40:56,640 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 1: in the moment, and we called out to our loved 653 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:04,360 Speaker 1: one and we imagined them and I imagine my grandmother 654 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 1: stepping close. And it was so interesting because I was 655 00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:12,319 Speaker 1: flooded with goose bumps, not all over. It started on 656 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 1: my right arm, slowly moved into my torso and over 657 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 1: to my left arm, almost like she walked right through me. 658 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:26,680 Speaker 1: Really interesting. I felt her love. I had memories of 659 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,800 Speaker 1: things we did together that just appeared out of nowhere. 660 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:33,879 Speaker 1: And these are the subtle communications that they give us 661 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 1: to let us know that they're right here with us. 662 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 1: Right now. You can listen to the recording of what 663 00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 1: I'm talking about if you go to We Don't Die 664 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:46,439 Speaker 1: dot Com, click on the store and just scroll down. 665 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:50,320 Speaker 1: There's a purple box that says many intensive with Scott Milligan, 666 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:55,839 Speaker 1: it's a great experience to bring in the love from 667 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,479 Speaker 1: your guides, bring in the love from your loved ones, 668 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:02,960 Speaker 1: sit for feeling, and also sit for your own personal development. 669 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,120 Speaker 1: So that's what that course was about. I think you'd 670 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:09,759 Speaker 1: enjoy it. Next question, do we still experience depression when 671 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 1: we are dead? Concetta says not as such, but I 672 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 1: do think that even on that side, there can be 673 00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 1: an experience of sorrow in the soul, at least when 674 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,840 Speaker 1: we first get there, which can come from realizing that 675 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:27,880 Speaker 1: we had a chance and screwed it up. Other souls 676 00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 1: will try to help a given soul get over that. 677 00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 1: Someone who was an alcoholic on this side and maybe 678 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 1: ruined his life and made other people miserable, will realize 679 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 1: his past mistakes when he crosses over, and maybe extremely 680 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 1: upset about how he lived his life. He'll see all 681 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,320 Speaker 1: of his errors and all of the pain he caused, 682 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 1: and it may take him a little while to get 683 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:53,319 Speaker 1: over this. At one of my big shows, I did 684 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,560 Speaker 1: a reading for a woman who wanted to know whether 685 00:42:55,600 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 1: her ex husband had even made it to the other side. Clearly. 686 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 1: She had thought he might have been relegated to some 687 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:07,360 Speaker 1: other place. He did come through. She was pretty surprised 688 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 1: when I told her that, in fact, he actually was there, 689 00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:14,839 Speaker 1: and he was apologizing like crazy, saying that she had 690 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:17,719 Speaker 1: been right. I didn't know what he was talking about, 691 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:21,400 Speaker 1: although she said she knew. I had the sense that 692 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,319 Speaker 1: maybe he took bad advice from someone he trusted. It 693 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:27,439 Speaker 1: seemed like a family thing. But the understanding I got 694 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:30,439 Speaker 1: was that he had treated her very badly, really put 695 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:34,200 Speaker 1: her through hell. Over there, he realized the error of 696 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:37,360 Speaker 1: what he had done and wanted her to know how 697 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 1: sorry he was, So I completely agree. I think once 698 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 1: we get over there, we do a review of our 699 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,760 Speaker 1: life and we see the impact we had on other people, 700 00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:51,279 Speaker 1: and we can experience it from their perspective, good, bad, 701 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,960 Speaker 1: and the ugly. So yes, we go through and we 702 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:57,480 Speaker 1: see how we treated people and how we made them feel, 703 00:43:57,719 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: but we also get to see the ripple effect of 704 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,399 Speaker 1: the good things that we do. No one judges us. 705 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 1: We just look at our own life, and if we 706 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,360 Speaker 1: have an opportunity to come through a medium, I'm sure 707 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 1: we would all say I'm sorry if we needed to, 708 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,399 Speaker 1: And let's not forget our pets. Here's a question, are 709 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:20,160 Speaker 1: our pets waiting for us on the other side, Concenta says, 710 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 1: of course they are. Animals are gifts from God. They 711 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:27,719 Speaker 1: give us comfort and joy, They sustain us and all honesty. 712 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:30,759 Speaker 1: Our pets give us the nearest thing to unconditional love 713 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,440 Speaker 1: we can know. On this side, we need to treat 714 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 1: them with respect and never take them for granted, just 715 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,880 Speaker 1: like the people who have passed on who are near 716 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:42,839 Speaker 1: to us. You can hear from them. Often when I'm 717 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 1: doing a reading, someone on the other side will tell 718 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 1: me to tell my client your dog is here. Sometimes 719 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:52,000 Speaker 1: a pet doesn't even wait for you to cross, they 720 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:54,839 Speaker 1: come back and visit you. On this side, I've heard 721 00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:58,240 Speaker 1: numerous stories of pets who have been seen and ghoest form, 722 00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:02,360 Speaker 1: or heard barking, or even felt. My friend Ginger and 723 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 1: her partner Wendy, were sleeping one night and Ginger was 724 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 1: wakened by this feeling of her dog Mino Giuseppi jumping 725 00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 1: all over her and licking her face, just like he 726 00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 1: used to do when he was a puppy. She knew 727 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:18,839 Speaker 1: realistically it couldn't be, so the next morning, she said 728 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 1: to Wendy, I had this dream last night that Nino 729 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:23,880 Speaker 1: was in the bed and jumping all over me and 730 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:27,319 Speaker 1: licking my face. And Wendy said, I don't think it 731 00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:31,440 Speaker 1: was a dream because I felt the same thing. All right, 732 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,359 Speaker 1: let's move on to music to the dead. Listen to music. 733 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 1: Concetta says, well, there is a hall of records on 734 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:40,680 Speaker 1: the other side, but it's not what it sounds like. 735 00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:44,240 Speaker 1: It's not some big c D collection, and the angels 736 00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:47,520 Speaker 1: are not jamming or hip hopping up there. But there 737 00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 1: definitely is music. In fact, the other side is the 738 00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:55,239 Speaker 1: source of music. They channel it to us. To those 739 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:59,120 Speaker 1: on this side we think of as composers, they really 740 00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:02,719 Speaker 1: are a rees seeving channel. I'm honestly not sure how 741 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:07,000 Speaker 1: it works. Obviously it comes from God. It doesn't originate 742 00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 1: with a particular soul on the other side as opposed 743 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,440 Speaker 1: to a soul on this side. But I don't know 744 00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:16,399 Speaker 1: what the mechanism is. What I can tell you is that, 745 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:20,840 Speaker 1: believe it or not, all music is intended for healing. 746 00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 1: What can I say? You may hate opera or rap 747 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:27,320 Speaker 1: or reggae. You may grimace a jazz or tango music 748 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:31,720 Speaker 1: or rock and roll, classical music may leave you utterly cold, 749 00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:35,400 Speaker 1: or disco might make you gag, but all souls vibrate 750 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:39,040 Speaker 1: with a different frequency. We're not all tuned into the 751 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:42,360 Speaker 1: same station, and with music, it truly is a case 752 00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:46,320 Speaker 1: of different strokes for different folks. What makes one person 753 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:49,279 Speaker 1: insane will be music to the ears and healing to 754 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 1: the spirit of another. Music has the power to both 755 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:57,239 Speaker 1: calm and invigorate us, and we don't need to translate 756 00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,879 Speaker 1: it into any other language. It can be a pre 757 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:04,440 Speaker 1: she add universally, it's magical medicine, and all of it 758 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:07,920 Speaker 1: comes from over there. Mozart was a child when he 759 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:12,720 Speaker 1: began composing. Beethoven was both blind and deaf, and still 760 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:16,920 Speaker 1: wrote music that has lasted through the ages. Their compositions 761 00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:20,640 Speaker 1: were channeled to them, as all music has been channeled 762 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:25,719 Speaker 1: through all other musicians in this world. I actually love 763 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:30,960 Speaker 1: that response from her. There is a movie called Alive Inside, 764 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:35,640 Speaker 1: and it takes Alzheimer's and dementia patients that are pretty 765 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 1: much out of it, not responsive to this world, and 766 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:42,640 Speaker 1: someone had the idea to put headphones on them and 767 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:46,440 Speaker 1: play music from their generation. If you want a movie 768 00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:48,840 Speaker 1: that will make you cry in a good way, this 769 00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:52,600 Speaker 1: is it By playing that music, it brought them back 770 00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:57,040 Speaker 1: to life again. Music woke up that part of their 771 00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,279 Speaker 1: grain and their soul and brought their memory. He is 772 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:04,360 Speaker 1: flowing back. So as much as you can play music 773 00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 1: if you want to be put in a good mood, 774 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:10,759 Speaker 1: play the music from your favorite years. It really is powerful. 775 00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:14,399 Speaker 1: Let's have another couple of questions together. Do the dead 776 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:17,359 Speaker 1: feel bad if we never visit them at the cemetery? 777 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 1: Conchetta says no, because they are not there. The cemetery 778 00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:23,480 Speaker 1: is purely for the living, so that we have a 779 00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:26,920 Speaker 1: place to associate with our loved ones. They do hear 780 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,759 Speaker 1: our thoughts there, but they also hear our thoughts no 781 00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:32,719 Speaker 1: matter where we are. The funny thing is that they 782 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:35,000 Speaker 1: are just as likely to be in the car with 783 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,920 Speaker 1: us as we are driving to the cemetery. It really 784 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:40,840 Speaker 1: isn't necessary to sit next to the gravestone to talk 785 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:44,279 Speaker 1: to the spirit who has crossed. Really, living flowers and 786 00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:46,960 Speaker 1: gifts at the grave site is meant to provide comfort 787 00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:51,280 Speaker 1: to the grieving friends and family members. For us, things 788 00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:54,120 Speaker 1: we place on a grave our symbols of our love, 789 00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:57,000 Speaker 1: But most likely they would be saying to us, don't 790 00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:00,799 Speaker 1: waste your money on those flowers. Hone and last, do 791 00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:02,960 Speaker 1: the souls of our loved ones ever want to come 792 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:07,240 Speaker 1: back to us? Are they sorry they left? Concetta says, 793 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:09,319 Speaker 1: I have never had a soul tell me they are 794 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:13,040 Speaker 1: sorry they left. Maybe they're not entirely happy about the 795 00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:17,439 Speaker 1: circumstances of their crossing, but that's something different. They don't 796 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 1: want those they've left on this side to be upset 797 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,560 Speaker 1: and grieving their loss so deeply. If they have left 798 00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:27,640 Speaker 1: someone suffering or left someone feeling guilty, they are sorry 799 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:32,400 Speaker 1: for this. Remember, we are not of this physical world. Ultimately, 800 00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:36,040 Speaker 1: we belong to the larger universe, that is God. We 801 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:38,520 Speaker 1: are here in the small part of the universe to 802 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:42,359 Speaker 1: study and learn and have certain experiences that only the 803 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:45,879 Speaker 1: physical world can offer. Dying and being on the other 804 00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 1: side is like summer vacation. It's a rare child who 805 00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:52,280 Speaker 1: will say that she wishes to go back to school 806 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:56,120 Speaker 1: before September. And likewise, I've never heard a soul express 807 00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:58,759 Speaker 1: they wish to go back. Once they are on the 808 00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,880 Speaker 1: other side. They under stay in the journey they've completed. 809 00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:06,279 Speaker 1: They still love us, their love lasts through eternity. But 810 00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:09,680 Speaker 1: on the other side it's paradise and unlimited, so they 811 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:12,080 Speaker 1: don't need to come back into physical form to be 812 00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:16,080 Speaker 1: with us. With that reminder that our home base is 813 00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:20,279 Speaker 1: we don't die dot com so much to do.
