For almost twenty five years, 8 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 1: I've been on a journey to prove the existence of 9 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:32,599 Speaker 1: life after death. On each episode will discuss the reasons 10 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,280 Speaker 1: we now know that our loved ones have survived physical 11 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: death and so will we. Welcome to Shades of the Afterlife. 12 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:45,080 Speaker 1: Just today, I was going through some old pictures with 13 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 1: my mom and there were pictures of me growing up 14 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: with my brothers and sisters and going to Disneyland for 15 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 1: the first time, and some really great pictures. And then 16 00:00:56,120 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 1: Mom opened up an envelope and she started to cross. Well, 17 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: when my mom was just in her young twenties, her mother, 18 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: who was fifty one at the time, got into a 19 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:12,320 Speaker 1: car accident. She was hit by a drunk driver and 20 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 1: in those days, they didn't have any seatbelts and my 21 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 1: poor grandmother went through the windshield and ended up on 22 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: the grass by the side of the car, and it 23 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: had killed her. And so my mom ended up raising 24 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: her younger brother and it was a very very difficult time. 25 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,639 Speaker 1: Mom was in the Air Force and she had a 26 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 1: great career in store for her, and her life went 27 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 1: a different direction. There were lots of tears this morning, 28 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: and even seeing the picture of the car, it was awful, 29 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: and in my heart, I wish I could give my 30 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: mom all the information that I have gathered over the 31 00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 1: past twenty five years about the afterlife living in my shoes. 32 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: I would love to give my experience to you too, 33 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: but there's no way to do that. And so with 34 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: this show, I'm really hoping to give the information that 35 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 1: I have to you to help you have a better life, 36 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: to help you have the confidence that our loved ones 37 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,079 Speaker 1: aren't gone and we will see them again. My mom 38 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: loves me dearly. You probably have people in your life 39 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: that love you dearly. Of course you're a fabulous person. 40 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: But when you start talking about things like the afterlife 41 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: or should I go see a medium, some people look 42 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: at us in a very strange way and can tell 43 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: us things like well, it's great if you believe in that, 44 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,920 Speaker 1: but there's no proof of it. All we can do 45 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:51,519 Speaker 1: is respect people from where they are in their journey. 46 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: It's only a matter of time before someone has a 47 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: loved one who passes away, or they get diagnosed with 48 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: an illness. In these times, the world is scary. We 49 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: really don't know what's happening in the future, so people 50 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: start asking those big questions. People need to go on 51 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: this journey for themselves. So as much as I wanted 52 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: to tell my mom, here's all the things I think 53 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 1: and this is what's real, I've tried that in the past. 54 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: Although she loves me and she supports me some of it, 55 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 1: Let's face it sounds quite weird. In my heart, I 56 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: knew that someday Mom will make that trip across to 57 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: the other side. It warmed my heart to think that 58 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: my grandmother, who I never met, is going to be 59 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: right there to meet her. Of course, it's going to 60 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: be tough for me, assuming she goes first. You never know. 61 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: These days I will have that comfort to know that 62 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: my mom gets to be reunited with her parents, with 63 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: her brother and sister, with my dad, with so many 64 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: other people, and so there's nothing really I can say 65 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: now that can convince somebody of these things that I 66 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: know to be true. So I'm not going to try 67 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: to do that. I promise you I won't. I'll just 68 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:23,039 Speaker 1: share with you my experiences. And in all these years, 69 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: there's so many commonalities about things about the afterlife, and 70 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 1: after interviewing over three hundred and fifty people, and like 71 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: I said, twenty five years is a long time of 72 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: studying things like religion and science and interviewing doctors and 73 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: physicists and even psychics and mediums and religious people. There's 74 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: just so many things that I've chosen to investigate as 75 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 1: far as the afterlife goes, electronic voice phenomena and these 76 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: trans image es and so many things that the list 77 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: goes on and on. While I'm not the expert, I 78 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: am a person that started out very skeptical and didn't 79 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: believe in all this, so I had to really investigate 80 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: to have some kind of feeling for myself that this 81 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 1: was all real. At some point, the tipping point occurred 82 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: where there's so much information I just had to share. Now, 83 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: people do look at me strange, yes they do, and 84 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: they will look at you strange if you start talking 85 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: about this, but trust your journey. It's a very private, 86 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: very personal one. As time goes on in your life, 87 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 1: I feel like you're going to have a basket and 88 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 1: you're going to keep filling it with more and more 89 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: information that will take you from a hope and maybe 90 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: a faith that the afterlife is real to finally getting 91 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: to the point where so many things have happened in 92 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: your life and there's been so much information that you 93 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: can't help but believe that it's true. I really hope 94 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 1: and pray for that moment because where I am now 95 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: versus where I was twenty five years ago two different people, absolutely, 96 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: two different people. And I don't think it's going to 97 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: take you twenty five years, because you know, I've been 98 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: working in living life in many of those years as 99 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: well as as researching the afterlife. I thought we could 100 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: do something different with this episode. I thought we could 101 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: do questions and answers with Sandra. I've asked people on 102 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: Facebook what are some of the questions they have about 103 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 1: the afterlife? And I thought when questions come in, I 104 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 1: could see, you know, what are questions that are on 105 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,919 Speaker 1: people's minds, and maybe answer them in the best way. 106 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: I know how from the experiences I've had, am I 107 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: saying this is the truth, the absolute truth, nothing but 108 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: the truth. No, it is the truth that I know, 109 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: and it's the truth that I live my life by. 110 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 1: When you go into a store and you want to 111 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: buy a new shirt, you go in the changing room 112 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 1: and you try it on. If it fits, if you 113 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: like how it looks, if it resonates with you, you 114 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: wear it, you buy it. It's yours, and you can 115 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: live your life loving that shirt. Same thing is like this. 116 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: If you love it, you like it, it seems to work, 117 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: it empowers you in your life, keep it. If it doesn't, 118 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: just like the shirt, you can put it back on 119 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: the rack, say that's not for me. There are currently 120 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: over seven billion people on planet Earth. There have been 121 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: billions of deaths over the course of time, so our 122 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: experience in life and death is unique. But from everything 123 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: I've studied and from all the people that I've interviewed, 124 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: and all the experiences that I've had, I'm going to 125 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: go through this well, not the whole because there's hundreds 126 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: of questions that were asked, but I'm going to start 127 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: at the top and just see what's kind of questions 128 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,559 Speaker 1: have come from people, and I'll answer them the best 129 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: that I can. How does that sound hopefully good? So 130 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: I have not read these questions yet, so I might 131 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: trip over my words a little bit as I read them. 132 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: But let's go through these together. First question comes from Jeff. 133 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: What is it like over there? Now? Over there is 134 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: the afterlife? And I like to say it's here after 135 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: because I say it is an energy realm that we 136 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: can't see it, but it's it's right here, you know, 137 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: it's That's the only way I can imagine that mediums 138 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,719 Speaker 1: can bring in people or blend with the energies of 139 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: a person is if they're right here right now. I 140 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: think our world is in the afterlife. I think there's 141 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: a great quote that our lifetime is a thread in 142 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 1: the fabric of our soul. So I think us living 143 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,320 Speaker 1: here on planet Earth, we're just in the fabric of 144 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: something so much bigger. Over there is very similar to 145 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 1: what we have here. We'll recognize people, people will be 146 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: doing jobs, they'll be doing activities. There are buildings, there's 147 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: places like the Halls of Learning that we can go 148 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: and we can learn. We can learn how to communicate 149 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: with people. Back here on Earth, we can learn about 150 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 1: things that have happened in the past. We can go 151 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: back and experience something virtually. If we like, we are healthy, well, whole, complete, 152 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: if we had ailments, were a whole again. It is 153 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:53,200 Speaker 1: something that reminds us here of being on earth. Have 154 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: you ever had a dream and you've woken up and 155 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: you thought, oh my gosh, that dream was so a real, 156 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 1: but it was just a dream. When we go there, 157 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 1: we will know that we're still us, We're still people. 158 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: There will be people there that we know and that 159 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,200 Speaker 1: we love, but it will be so real. It will 160 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: seem like our lifetime was just a dream. That is 161 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: the real home. That will be that feeling of returning home, 162 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: unconditional love. Many people say the way that we communicate 163 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,679 Speaker 1: is through our thoughts, and it's like having a conversation, 164 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,959 Speaker 1: but we're thinking it. We don't necessarily have to use 165 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,839 Speaker 1: our mouths and speak it. All of our favorite things 166 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 1: are there. Of course, we don't have a human body, 167 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 1: although we can eat, we can drink. We can also create, 168 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: will have homes. You can create the home of your 169 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: dreams if you like, you can visit anywhere from what 170 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,959 Speaker 1: I gather, it is really a miraculous place. There's work, 171 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 1: there's hobbies. And think of it this way. If there's 172 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,839 Speaker 1: something you didn't do while you were here on earth, 173 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: you get an opportunity to do there. Always wanted to sing, 174 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: always wanted to paint, always wanted to go on a trip, 175 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 1: you can do it in the afterlife. If your life 176 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: was cut short here on earth, you can have love, 177 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: you can raise children, you can have your dreams fulfilled. Remember, life, 178 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: both here and in the afterlife is an education for 179 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: your soul, so they'll still be soul enriching things to 180 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: do to accomplish. I do think our souls progress and 181 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: we learn more and we gain more knowledge. Okay, another 182 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 1: question Diane asks, do our past loved ones meet us 183 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: when we pass? Well, I would have to say yes. 184 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,439 Speaker 1: In fact, many times they meet us before we pass. 185 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 1: As we heard just a couple of episodes ago about 186 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 1: deathbed visitations. Many times I loved ones will be right 187 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 1: there those moments just before we go and lead us across. 188 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: And also once we get there, we are surrounded by 189 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: our loved ones, even our pets. As if we are 190 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: crossing the finish line to life, they're they're they're clapping 191 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: they're cheering us on, and one can only imagine the 192 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 1: amount of people that love you that will be right there. 193 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: But yes, Diane, they do meet us when we pass. 194 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: I'll be back in just a minute to answer more 195 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: questions from my grateful friends and listeners on Facebook.

Welcome back to Shades of the Afterlife. 210 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: I'm Sandra Champlain and we're having a questions and answers episode, 211 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: I asked friends and people on Facebook what questions they 212 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: have about the afterlife. So here's the next question. Samantha asks, 213 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: do they know all the family secrets or stuff hidden 214 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: from them once they pass? Well, here's the thing. If 215 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: you pass, do you want to know all the family secrets? 216 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: I get the feeling that the ego that we have 217 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: that is that sneaky snoop, the one that likes to gossip, 218 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: the one that likes to get mad at people or 219 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: think we're right. I think that side of us disappears 220 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: while we still have our personalities. We don't become a busybody. 221 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 1: You know, there was a book written Do dead people 222 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 1: watch me in the shower? Do they care? No? There 223 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: is privacy. You can and do what you want here 224 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: and not worry that Aunt Bessie is, you know, watching 225 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 1: your every move. They have their lives, they continue to 226 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: learn and explore and have jobs, and they're busy. So 227 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: will they delve into the family secrets or stuff hidden 228 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 1: from the past. Probably not, I wouldn't think so. I've 229 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 1: heard mediums do readings. There is never that kind of stuff, 230 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: but there's never that kind of hidden secrets that come out. 231 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: I think they have respect. So, and I also don't 232 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: think that when we pass we know all the secrets 233 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: of the universe. I think we're going to get over 234 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,200 Speaker 1: there and it's going to be pretty darn great, but 235 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:47,359 Speaker 1: we're going to realize there's still a lot more to learn. Okay, 236 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: Simone asks, does the version of the afterlife we get 237 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: depend on what we believe? I think so, Simone, I 238 00:15:56,400 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: really do. There are people that have come through, whether 239 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 1: they've had near death experiences or come through during mediumship readings, 240 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: that were atheists and didn't believe in anything, and once 241 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 1: they got over there, they were filled with a feeling 242 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: of love and then that there was something, but it 243 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: took a little while before their loved ones came through. 244 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: So what I'm saying is your belief, whatever that is, 245 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: your main core belief, is what first greets you or 246 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: surrounds you when you are in the afterlife. I think 247 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: it's a place where the intelligence of the universe, God, 248 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: if you want to say, God, will put you someplace 249 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: you're very comfortable, very much at ease, so there's not 250 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: any big surprises. However, in time, you realize the bigger picture, 251 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: You realize that you are a soul that you have 252 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 1: lived on that the afterlife is real. Okay, Mary asks 253 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: can they hear us when we talk to them? That 254 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:07,719 Speaker 1: is a big yes. I've seen medium demonstrations so many 255 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 1: times and they can hear our thoughts and if we 256 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,400 Speaker 1: speak it, they can hear us, which is really really wonderful. 257 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: When we speak to them, just trust that they're getting 258 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 1: the message. Now, unfortunately we can't hear them. Isn't that frustrating? 259 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: It can take years of studying to be a medium 260 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: or something like that to be able to communicate with 261 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 1: other people's loved ones. But for us, our loved ones 262 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: can come through our imagination senses. That's why sometimes if 263 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: you're sitting in the car and all of a sudden 264 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,439 Speaker 1: you feel your dad with you, or your grandmother or something, 265 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: and you think, oh, that was just my imagination. Well 266 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 1: if you felt their love and it felt very real, 267 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,640 Speaker 1: trust that it was them. Like I said, they work 268 00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 1: through your imagination. The more we can train ourselves us 269 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,880 Speaker 1: to quiet our busy mind, the more they can communicate 270 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 1: with us. Let's see, here's a question from tye. Are 271 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: married couple still married after they both pass? Yes? Love 272 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 1: never dies. You guys are together through thick and thin, 273 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:22,160 Speaker 1: and even if you had a second spouse, say one 274 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: person passed, the love is still there. This might sound awful, 275 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 1: but nobody's going to be fighting over each other in 276 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,719 Speaker 1: the afterlife. I was married to her, No, I was 277 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: married to her. Unconditional love is there, so you can 278 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: have your love for both your spouses. So yes, true 279 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 1: love continues on. Debbie says, I want to have a 280 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 1: touch even if it is slight. Now. Debbie, I'm not sure, 281 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: but I'm guessing that that means right now as you're alive, 282 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 1: you want to have a touch and feel someone who 283 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 1: is no longer here, like how people turn on the 284 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 1: lights or who knows. People get different things, different signs 285 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: from their loved ones, So I'm guessing this is a 286 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:13,359 Speaker 1: question about signs. My best advice to you would be 287 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 1: set a time every day or every other day that 288 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: you talk to your loved one. Ask them to come 289 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 1: close and close your eyes and just keep saying, come 290 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: even closer, Come even closer. Try to keep your mind 291 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: as quiet as possible, and then ask them to either 292 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: kiss your cheek or put a hand on your shoulder, 293 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 1: and just pay close attention to how you feel. Once 294 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,360 Speaker 1: we cross over. Like I said, we don't have all 295 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: the powers and the information in the universe to know 296 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 1: how things work. But if it's something you are really 297 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: committed to to have that touch, and your loved one 298 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 1: will do everything they can on their part to work 299 00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 1: at it. But it takes some time. It takes some 300 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 1: time for them to figure out how to manipulate their 301 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 1: energy to be able to do that touch. And then 302 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 1: you say you have to let them know I didn't 303 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: feel that, or maybe you feel at the goose bumps 304 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,880 Speaker 1: and you're just like, oh, you know, trust that that's them. 305 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: And the more that happens and you keep that dialogue open, 306 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: the more it will happen. Kathleen asks where do those 307 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: who commit suicide go, Well, they go to the same place. 308 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: We all go to the same place. That's been said 309 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: that some people that have really created these horrific acts 310 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 1: against mankind, you know, some of those really awful, awful, 311 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: awful things, that those people are just absorbed into a 312 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 1: light and don't go where the rest of the general 313 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: population goes. But no one gets punished. We punish ourselves. 314 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,360 Speaker 1: I don't even want to say we punish ourselves. We 315 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: review our own lives and we get to be the 316 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: judge of how well we did it. I have a 317 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 1: huge amount of compassion for those souls who have had 318 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 1: such an awful life in their mind and felt that 319 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 1: the only way out is to end their lives. The 320 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: good news is they are greeted with love. The loved 321 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: ones are there. They will certainly review their lives and 322 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: work through whatever difficulties they had, but they will go 323 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 1: and you will see them again, So no punishment. They 324 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:34,120 Speaker 1: are safe. Okay, let's see. How does Sanders Champlaine organize 325 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 1: all these fantastic events and podcasts? Craig, that's a great question. 326 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 1: I have many clones. No, this is just a passion 327 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,360 Speaker 1: of mine, and I think when anyone finds their passion 328 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 1: they can't help but share. And then also, I know 329 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: personally firsthand how awful grief is, and if I've got 330 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: something that will help someone else live another day and 331 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: help alleviate some of the pain, I'm going to share it. 332 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: So I'll do the best I can. Nora asked if 333 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: I miscarried children on earth, will I be able to 334 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: raise them on the other side. Well, that's a good question. 335 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: It's a great question. Actually, children who go to the 336 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: other side, are raised and loved by relatives and guides 337 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,400 Speaker 1: and people like that. But there's something really special that 338 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 1: we get to do when we're over there. We can 339 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 1: be any age we want. So as far as the 340 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: afterlife goes, our lifetime here is like a blink of 341 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: an eye. Over there, all of a sudden, we're all together, 342 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: you know. So they're not experiencing this lifetime of loss 343 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 1: and missing like we're experiencing it. For children, they will grow, 344 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 1: but when it's your time to go over there, they 345 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: can be back and you can raise them again. It 346 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 1: is a play. Swear. Anything we don't do here on earth, 347 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: we are able to do in the afterlife. Christine asks, 348 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 1: are we just energy or do we have bodies on 349 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 1: the other side. Does it feel like a solid real place. 350 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:19,400 Speaker 1: Are their buildings, etcetera. Yes, it seems like a solid, 351 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: real place. We do have bodies on the other side. 352 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,959 Speaker 1: In fact, we are still us. One of the things 353 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: that irritates me is when people say when we go 354 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: over there, we're just energy, or you go to a 355 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,159 Speaker 1: medium and they say I have a mother energy. No, 356 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 1: you have mom. We're real people. So that's good news. 357 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 1: Someone had said that our invisible right now is the 358 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: world that's visible to them. So when we die, the 359 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 1: invisible becomes visible. If that makes sense, Isabel says, well, 360 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: we get to meet our great grandparents whom we never 361 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: met in the physical world. The answer is yes. In fact, 362 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 1: you can meet a whole lot more people. You can 363 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: also meet your spirit guides, these people that have been 364 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: looking after you since you took your very first breath 365 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 1: and took your very last breath. You get to meet them. 366 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: If you're a fan of music, or poetry or science, 367 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 1: you get to meet your role models. Pretty great. Christine asks, 368 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: will our pets be there? What do they do until 369 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 1: we get there? Ah? Well, I'm assuming our kiddies and 370 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,440 Speaker 1: puppies are chasing butterflies. We do get to see them again. 371 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 1: Those animals that we have loved, that have been our companions, 372 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: have been our pets, they will be there. This might 373 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 1: sound awful, but those animals that we ate, you know, 374 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,719 Speaker 1: they're not They're They're not going to come snuggling up 375 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 1: to us. I do believe that they have their own 376 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,880 Speaker 1: kind of afterlife, but that might not be with us. 377 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: And what do they do until we get there? Well, 378 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: like I said, earlier. There is no time over there, 379 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 1: so it's not like they feel like they've been waiting 380 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,400 Speaker 1: very long. All of a sudden, you'll be there. There's 381 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: a beautiful poem called the Rainbow Bridge about pets in 382 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 1: the afterlife. If you haven't heard it, I recommend that 383 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 1: you look it up on the internet. Paula asks, why 384 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: do some spirits appear to get stuck? Well, that's a 385 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: really good question. First of all, they may appear to 386 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: get stuck, but they don't get stuck. When we die, 387 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 1: we go there. So before death, we're here, we die, 388 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 1: we go there. There's no getting stuck. People who have 389 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: transitioned continue their lives, and those that really feel a 390 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 1: closeness to earth, meaning they have some unfinished business or 391 00:25:55,760 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 1: there's some really tight relationship that they may stay as 392 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:05,160 Speaker 1: close as possible for as long as possible. And that's 393 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: a good thing, it really is, so they're not stuck. 394 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 1: They might have unfinished business. Someone just bought a mega 395 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 1: million dollar home and just as they moved in, suddenly 396 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,879 Speaker 1: they die. Well, they may choose to still enjoy it 397 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: and spend some of their time close to the home, 398 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: if that makes sense. But they're not really stuck. They aren't. 399 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: They just have not continued their soul's progression and they 400 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 1: will in time. And speaking of time, it's time for 401 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: a short break.

I'm Sandra Champlaine. Thinking of 426 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: questions and investigating the answers to those questions will give 427 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 1: you the foundation that the afterlife is real, a strong 428 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: enough foundation, and there isn't a skeptic alive who will 429 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: be able to sway you from your beliefs. However, a 430 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: word to the wise, don't push your beliefs on anyone. 431 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: I've tried it. Oh, you can gently hint about what 432 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: you're researching, or even that you're listening to this podcast 433 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 1: about the afterlife and see what people say. I think 434 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 1: you'll be surprised that more people secretly believe in the 435 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 1: afterlife and have had signs from their loved ones and 436 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 1: unique experiences than haven't. You'll know immediately if someone is 437 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 1: not interested, and you can easily just change the subject. 438 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: Let's get back to questions and answers. Laura asks to 439 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: our loved ones on the other side, know when we 440 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 1: are thinking about them? Absolutely they do. They love us, 441 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 1: love never dies, and they're only a thought away. As 442 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,959 Speaker 1: busy as they are living their life, they know when 443 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: you're thinking about them. Pamela asks, do we come back 444 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 1: to Earth to live another life? I just did an 445 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: episode about this. Listen to the episode about Children and 446 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 1: the Afterlife. So I'm going to refer you back to that. 447 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: There's a debate whether reincarnation is real or if those 448 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: people that say they're reincarnated or having a memory of 449 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 1: someone mediumistically personally. I like the idea of recycling cans 450 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 1: and bottles, and so it may very well be possible. 451 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: I did a lot of research on reincarnation and it's 452 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: not something where I can give you the absolute answer. 453 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: But I'm going to give you the argument on both 454 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 1: sides and see what your soul says. So if you 455 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: haven't heard it, go check out Children and the Afterlife 456 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 1: episode and hear a lot more about reincarnation. Here's a 457 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: question from Mariah. Are my loved ones happy? Yes, they are. 458 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 1: Life continues on they do love you. They know that 459 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 1: you're going through a tough time. They may have some 460 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: regrets or things left unsaid, but they know in a 461 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 1: blink of an eye you'll be together again. So happiness. Yes. 462 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: Remember they're living their life with most of their favorite 463 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: people and doing their favorite things and exploring the universe. 464 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 1: Karen asks, are there different seasons? Do they live in houses? 465 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 1: Do they celebrate holidays? Do they get ill? Different seasons? 466 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: I hear it's just eternal sunshine, kind of like a 467 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 1: most Beautiful Day. If you haven't seen the movie yet 468 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 1: Defending Your Life with Meryl Streep and Albert Brooks, It's 469 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: really good and that kind of gives you an idea 470 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 1: of the perfect sunshine. Do they live in houses? Yes? Absolutely. 471 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 1: Do they celebrate holidays? Um, I would think so. There's 472 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: many that have said that they return here to be 473 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: with loved ones when we celebrate. And do they get ill? Nope, 474 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: no need to. Jordan's asks are they aware of our 475 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: depression and anxiety? Do they know when we're in it? 476 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: And do they try to tune in? I do think 477 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 1: that they love us dearly, and I do think that 478 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 1: they know the power of prayer and healing. So I 479 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 1: do think they're listening and from their point of view, 480 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:16,480 Speaker 1: sending all kinds of thoughts and prayers and love. And 481 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: it's really tough being a human being. It really is, 482 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: and the byproduct of being a human can sometimes be 483 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 1: some awful, awful suffering. We won't have it when we transition. However, 484 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: some of our darkest times here on earth can lead 485 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: to us going on a spiritual adventure, a journey that 486 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 1: we get to know our own spirituality, and it's really 487 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 1: a great opportunity for our souls to go through it. 488 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:52,959 Speaker 1: So depression and anxiety are absolutely awful, but I do 489 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 1: really believe that they are in it with you, and 490 00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 1: they will pray for you, or however I can send 491 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: energy to try to alleviate the pain. Melanie asks, when 492 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 1: did you know that life is eternal? Do you remember 493 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: that moment that you were convinced that we don't die? 494 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 1: For me, The biggest moment was when I did electronic 495 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: voice phenomena, and that is recording sounds of nothing and 496 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 1: playing them back and having voices on them. Although I've 497 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 1: had many other experiences, that very first groundbreaking one is 498 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 1: when I held out my tape recorder recording the sounds 499 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 1: of rain drops and started talking to the invisible space 500 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 1: around me, asking my loved ones if this is real 501 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 1: and I should help people believe in the afterlife to 502 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: speak now, and then I'll say good night. And when 503 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 1: I played it back, I hear good night, Sandra, goodnight, 504 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: good night, good night. So that was a moment. Another 505 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: moment is when I had a medium reading by a 506 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: spirit artist who not only told me the most specific 507 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 1: things about a conversation that I had had with my 508 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: dad that no one else knew, but she drew a 509 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,359 Speaker 1: picture of him and not how he looked when he 510 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 1: was in the seventies and hooked up to machinery and 511 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:24,279 Speaker 1: looking old and frail, but looking young and healthy when 512 00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:27,880 Speaker 1: he was in his twenties in the Air Force. And 513 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 1: that's when she told me we get to be our 514 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: favorite age when we transition. And then the other big, 515 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: big aha moment I had is when afterlife researchers so 516 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 1: Near and Aldi sent me a group of pictures. She 517 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:47,280 Speaker 1: has been capturing images of people in the afterlife using 518 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 1: technology which is rather mind blowing. Taking a picture of 519 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: like static energy and it will transform into pictures. And 520 00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:00,720 Speaker 1: so she very routinely sent me pictures of unknown people, 521 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 1: and one of the people ended up being my father. 522 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,719 Speaker 1: And it's not a picture that he had taken as 523 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:10,760 Speaker 1: he was alive. It is him. There is absolutely no doubt. 524 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 1: And I got the video of the static energy morphing 525 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: into an actual photograph of my father. I'm beyond convincing. 526 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 1: There's nothing anybody can do to convince me otherwise. The 527 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 1: afterlife is real. We may not understand it, and we 528 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: may not understand it when we get over there, but 529 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 1: I do know it is real. Rona asks, how is 530 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:45,280 Speaker 1: euthanasia viewed well? Again, like suicide, there is no judgment 531 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 1: from other people about us. It is our soul judging ourselves. Only. 532 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:56,479 Speaker 1: We know the pain we have and the life we lead. 533 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: So when it is our time to go, there is 534 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,839 Speaker 1: a life review. But it is you yourself that is, 535 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 1: I don't want to say judging your actions, but reviewing 536 00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:11,840 Speaker 1: your life and where could you have done better? What 537 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 1: have you done great? What else is there to learn? 538 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 1: So no judgment. Julie asks, was my father's memory restored 539 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 1: after he passed? Yes, people are whole, complete and perfect 540 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:29,279 Speaker 1: after they pass, even if they've had any kind of 541 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 1: injury or ailment. Or dementia or Alzheimer's or disability. They 542 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 1: are completely perfect and restored. Jason asks, can you please 543 00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 1: explain how karma works? Well, unfortunately I can't. That's the 544 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 1: truth I do think, and this is how I live 545 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,720 Speaker 1: my life, that what we put out we get back. 546 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:56,359 Speaker 1: So Jason, be a good person, do the best job 547 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: you can, and it'll come back. I'm sorry I can't 548 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 1: give you a more direct answer, but that's how I feel. 549 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 1: Fiona asks, do they miss us? Are they sad they 550 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:10,319 Speaker 1: passed and their lives were cut short? I think initially 551 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 1: when they cross over it comes as a shock, But again, 552 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 1: if time really is different over there, actually there's no time, 553 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 1: then there is not this feeling of sadness. You'll be 554 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 1: back with them and just a blink of an eye, 555 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: so they will love and support us and see a 556 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 1: much bigger picture and they can still love you from 557 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:38,439 Speaker 1: where they are. Pammy asks, can some souls be earth 558 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,719 Speaker 1: bound until they are rescued? Well, this is kind of 559 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,840 Speaker 1: like the people being stuck. You don't need to rescue 560 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 1: any soul. If your gut instinct tells you you need 561 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 1: to rescue someone, it doesn't hurt to pray for people 562 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 1: whatever side there on, prayers are always used. That energy, 563 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 1: that prayer energy is used towards someone somewhere. But as 564 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 1: far as people needing to be rescued, no, they're safe. 565 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:09,840 Speaker 1: Monique asks, do those in the afterlife eat? And if so, 566 00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,399 Speaker 1: what is that that is eaten and consumed and what 567 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 1: purpose does it serve. Well, here's the thing, Monique, we 568 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:20,880 Speaker 1: don't need to eat. People will eat and they will drink, 569 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 1: and it will be more of a sensation of a 570 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:27,719 Speaker 1: memory that you had. If your favorite food is chocolate, 571 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,879 Speaker 1: like mine, you get to the afterlife, you will have 572 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,360 Speaker 1: the experience of eating chocolate, but it won't be the 573 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:38,360 Speaker 1: same as on Earth because we don't have a human body. 574 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,279 Speaker 1: So there's absolutely no need to eat. But people find 575 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 1: it comforting to eat and drink because it's something they're 576 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,560 Speaker 1: used to. But again, it's something more that they have 577 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 1: the memory of it, and that's how they have the 578 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:54,359 Speaker 1: experience of it. Erika asks, on the anniversary of their 579 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: death on Earth, do they return and go through that 580 00:38:56,960 --> 00:39:02,600 Speaker 1: process again, for example suicide, No, they don't, Erika. In fact, 581 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: when they pass, all memory of their death, as far 582 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:11,839 Speaker 1: as the emotions and pain and all that stuff, that disappears, 583 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 1: they're able to verbalize it sometimes through mediums. You want 584 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,319 Speaker 1: to know that that's your loved one, so they'll be 585 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 1: able to talk about what happened, but their pain is 586 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,880 Speaker 1: not there. In fact, it's also said that just prior 587 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,880 Speaker 1: to someone's passing, very often the soul leaves the body 588 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: so they don't feel the pain when they pass. Terry asks, 589 00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 1: besides watching over us on earth, what else do our 590 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 1: loved ones do? For instance, after many years, do they 591 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 1: no longer watch us because they've moved down to higher consciousness. Well, 592 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:46,760 Speaker 1: here's the good thing. They can have the higher consciousness 593 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:51,080 Speaker 1: and still watch us on earth. Just like when you 594 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:54,359 Speaker 1: were a kid. There was a lot to learn for 595 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 1: you to be where you are now, but you're still 596 00:39:57,040 --> 00:40:01,239 Speaker 1: that kid at heart. Well, there's still people and their 597 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 1: souls will become more enlightened, but they still have that 598 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,839 Speaker 1: power to be with you, and they'll still be right 599 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 1: there to meet you when you cross over. Before we continue, 600 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 1: I'd like to give you some great resources where you 601 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 1: can find answers to your questions.

I hate 660 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:39,000 Speaker 1: to say this, but we live in a society where 661 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 1: people watch negative stuff before they watch positive stuff. And 662 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:47,400 Speaker 1: you can tell this. There's a lot of reality TV 663 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 1: which deals with the drama. As far as the afterlife goes, 664 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:56,359 Speaker 1: you really want to look to see what resonates with you. 665 00:44:57,239 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 1: There's people that have had your death experiences that claim 666 00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:10,040 Speaker 1: negative experiences. There's people that do lucid dreaming and they 667 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:15,319 Speaker 1: believe that their experiences are really the afterlife. The thing 668 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 1: is when a piece of us still is connected to 669 00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:23,239 Speaker 1: our body, some people call it the silver cord. We 670 00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:28,479 Speaker 1: have not yet transitioned really into the afterlife, so our 671 00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:34,880 Speaker 1: conscious and our subconscious mind are still involved. Henry Ford says, 672 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,840 Speaker 1: if we think we can or we think we can't, 673 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:42,480 Speaker 1: we're right. If we think something negative is going to 674 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 1: happen to us, our subconscious mind can create that as 675 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 1: an illusion. So you really want to check in with 676 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:54,279 Speaker 1: your own soul to see if it resonates truth. Just 677 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,680 Speaker 1: because somebody says it doesn't mean it's the truth. Even 678 00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:00,560 Speaker 1: if I say it, ask your soul and if it 679 00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:03,720 Speaker 1: feels right, go with it, and if it doesn't, throw 680 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 1: it away. But absolutely I don't think that is true 681 00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:11,520 Speaker 1: at all. Debbie asks, Hi, Sandra, I would like to 682 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 1: know why some people get messages from their recently past 683 00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 1: loved ones right away and some never do. That's a 684 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:22,640 Speaker 1: great question, Debbie, and it's frustrating because we all want 685 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:27,320 Speaker 1: to have messages right away. We retain our same personalities, 686 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 1: and if we're someone who is quiet and shy, we 687 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:36,800 Speaker 1: may not be so verbal in the afterlife. Your life 688 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,840 Speaker 1: here is meant to be lived. They may be someone 689 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:44,920 Speaker 1: who doesn't want to interfere. They could also be busy 690 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:48,439 Speaker 1: on the other side and living their life and enjoying it. 691 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 1: The problem could also be on our point of view 692 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:56,680 Speaker 1: that we have not quieted our minds enough to be 693 00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 1: able to pick up on them. You know, they could 694 00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 1: be right in front of us, yelling as loud as 695 00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 1: they can, but we can't hear them. So that's a 696 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:08,400 Speaker 1: that's a really tough question because we all want to 697 00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:12,720 Speaker 1: get that sign. Do they sleep in the afterlife? Margie asks, 698 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,880 Speaker 1: you can if it's something you're used to, but you 699 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:20,440 Speaker 1: don't have to. Angie asks, do our spouses wait for 700 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,480 Speaker 1: us on the other side? Absolutely, all those people that 701 00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:26,280 Speaker 1: love us, they'll be right there to greet us. Someone 702 00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:31,359 Speaker 1: Anonymous asks is existence multidimensional? Can there be spirit in 703 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 1: many places, times, including lifetimes at once. How does that look? Well, 704 00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:38,840 Speaker 1: I hate to say this, but I don't know the 705 00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:41,040 Speaker 1: answer to that. I do think we can be in 706 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:44,840 Speaker 1: different places at once. Though two sisters go to a 707 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:47,800 Speaker 1: medium at the same time on opposite sides of the globe, 708 00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:51,799 Speaker 1: the mother has been with both mediums and sisters at 709 00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:54,680 Speaker 1: the same exact time. So I do think spirit can 710 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:58,160 Speaker 1: be in many places at once. In fact, back to 711 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:02,239 Speaker 1: the reincarnation question, is it possible that we can be 712 00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:05,279 Speaker 1: back here on earth but also a part of us 713 00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:08,600 Speaker 1: in the afterlife. So these are big questions I don't 714 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:11,440 Speaker 1: have the answer to, but it's a great question. Becky 715 00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:15,120 Speaker 1: asks why some people see God and like myself, my 716 00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:19,640 Speaker 1: grandma came for me as a younger, healthier version. As 717 00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:23,759 Speaker 1: far as God goes, whatever it is we believe in, 718 00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:27,360 Speaker 1: we're going to see an experience when we first go 719 00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 1: over there. And then also your grandma happy to say 720 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:37,959 Speaker 1: she's probably happier as a younger, healthier version. John asks, apparently, 721 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:41,680 Speaker 1: when you transition, you and your loved ones are part 722 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:44,719 Speaker 1: of a soul group, and therefore they all wait for 723 00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:47,600 Speaker 1: you to return home, and once the soul group is 724 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:52,520 Speaker 1: reunited on the other side. Then you all decide what's next. John, 725 00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:56,040 Speaker 1: I've heard this many many times, and I actually like 726 00:48:56,280 --> 00:49:00,399 Speaker 1: that idea. It makes sense that the loved one that 727 00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:03,520 Speaker 1: play different roles in our life really help to have 728 00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 1: our soul grow even negative experiences. Did you know that 729 00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 1: a pearl is created because a piece of sand is 730 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 1: irritating the oyster, and a perfect pearl is produced. People 731 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:19,440 Speaker 1: can be the same way in our life and they 732 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:23,160 Speaker 1: can turn us into the pearl or perfect diamond. So 733 00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:27,279 Speaker 1: it does make sense that in the hereafter we stick 734 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:31,120 Speaker 1: together and maybe we play different roles, or maybe we 735 00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 1: continue on. But I do like the soul group idea. 736 00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:40,080 Speaker 1: Diana asks, can we ask our past family member for help? 737 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:44,920 Speaker 1: And can they help? Well, we can certainly ask. We 738 00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:48,399 Speaker 1: all have free will and we all have choices to make. 739 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:54,759 Speaker 1: They can't interfere with our own choices. Certainly they can 740 00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:58,960 Speaker 1: give their opinion. Just because they've traveled to the afterlife 741 00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:03,080 Speaker 1: doesn't mean they have the correct answers. So once again, 742 00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:06,480 Speaker 1: we really have to follow our own instinct and let 743 00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:10,120 Speaker 1: our soul guide us. But certainly we can ask, and 744 00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:13,560 Speaker 1: they can send prayers, and I'm sure if they can 745 00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:16,520 Speaker 1: put a thought into your mind with an idea they 746 00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:21,000 Speaker 1: would do so. Debbie asks, I often wonder what those 747 00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:26,400 Speaker 1: in spirit think when they see their loved ones murdered 748 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:30,440 Speaker 1: or attacked or treated badly, and if they feel upset 749 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:34,799 Speaker 1: and powerless. Debbie, that is a great question. I'm not 750 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:38,160 Speaker 1: sure I have the answer to that. If we could 751 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:42,080 Speaker 1: put ourselves in the spirit world for a minute, and 752 00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:45,160 Speaker 1: if we could see the bigger picture, and if we 753 00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:48,960 Speaker 1: could know that our souls are eternal and our life 754 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:52,120 Speaker 1: on earth is short, and if we're looking at our 755 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:55,960 Speaker 1: loved one experiencing that, I can't help but think that 756 00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:59,360 Speaker 1: there would be some sadness there. At the same time, 757 00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:04,640 Speaker 1: realizing that there is a much bigger picture, can't understand 758 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:08,160 Speaker 1: how much the soul is going to grow or learn. 759 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:13,080 Speaker 1: I don't believe that we came to this earth and 760 00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:17,160 Speaker 1: shows bad things to happen to us for our soul growth. 761 00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:20,239 Speaker 1: I don't believe that. I do believe that we come 762 00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:22,840 Speaker 1: into this life with certain things we want to learn 763 00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:28,719 Speaker 1: and experience, but there are terrible things that happen. We 764 00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 1: can take every experience that we have and use it 765 00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:37,040 Speaker 1: for strength, use it to make a difference for other people, 766 00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:41,040 Speaker 1: Like the woman who started Mothers Against Drunk Driving. She 767 00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:45,520 Speaker 1: went through a horrific experience of her child dying and 768 00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:51,879 Speaker 1: started a worldwide organization making a difference. Sam asks, if 769 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:56,720 Speaker 1: someone who does not believe, will they still cross over 770 00:51:56,880 --> 00:52:00,840 Speaker 1: and be at peace? I'm not sure there at peace. 771 00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:05,560 Speaker 1: I think there's joy and happiness, and they're busy and 772 00:52:05,560 --> 00:52:09,359 Speaker 1: they're doing things, and yes, of course there's some peace. 773 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,520 Speaker 1: I don't think they're like resting in peace. I think 774 00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:16,279 Speaker 1: they're active. It doesn't matter if they believe or if 775 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 1: they don't. There are so many stories of people that 776 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:23,480 Speaker 1: don't believe, who have come back through mediums or have 777 00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:29,120 Speaker 1: had near death experiences that now do believe. Craig asks, 778 00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:33,560 Speaker 1: what is the other side? Is the Eastern concept of 779 00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:38,840 Speaker 1: Bardo the correct one? Craig, I actually haven't studied Bardo 780 00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:42,759 Speaker 1: in a long long time to know the answer to that. 781 00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:46,600 Speaker 1: As far as what is the other side, I do 782 00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:52,319 Speaker 1: believe is a field of energy that encompasses this one. 783 00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:57,040 Speaker 1: Science has proven that two or more different kinds of 784 00:52:57,160 --> 00:53:00,640 Speaker 1: energy can coexist at the very same time time in 785 00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:04,720 Speaker 1: the same place. So for me, right now, I'm sitting 786 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:09,400 Speaker 1: in a home. There are wireless radio signals around. There 787 00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 1: is the wireless Internet, there's television signals, there's the satellites 788 00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:20,320 Speaker 1: with the GPS signals. There's light energy, there's sound. There's 789 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,840 Speaker 1: so many different kinds of energy, all existing in the 790 00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:30,799 Speaker 1: same exact place. Julie asks, do any religions frown on mediumship? 791 00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:35,759 Speaker 1: Absolutely they do, and that's why again it's important to 792 00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:42,040 Speaker 1: not push this on anyone. The Bible was written by men, 793 00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:48,160 Speaker 1: and it was changed throughout history. There's many biblical scholars 794 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:52,879 Speaker 1: that are also very tightly interwoven with the reality of 795 00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:58,279 Speaker 1: the afterlife who have found many, many areas where the 796 00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:03,239 Speaker 1: Bible talks about me mediumship and the miracles that Jesus did, 797 00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:07,719 Speaker 1: and a whole bunch of other great information. Many of 798 00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:12,239 Speaker 1: the religions are fear based, sorry to say so, they 799 00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:16,400 Speaker 1: do frown upon mediumship. One of the things that I 800 00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:19,719 Speaker 1: feel is very very important is when we believe in 801 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 1: the afterlife, we live a better life. Now. Even if 802 00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:29,800 Speaker 1: those religions frown upon mediumship, many of them form great 803 00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:34,440 Speaker 1: communities and people belong, people are able to be in service, 804 00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:38,480 Speaker 1: and they're living a good life. So again, we just 805 00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:42,759 Speaker 1: don't push our beliefs on anyone else. Ernie asks what 806 00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:47,880 Speaker 1: can we do here before going over there? Well? I 807 00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:51,160 Speaker 1: take that as how can we be a better person 808 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 1: here before moving on to the afterlife? Before we depart 809 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:58,279 Speaker 1: this earth, there is that last time we close our 810 00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:01,880 Speaker 1: eyes and we do look back on our life. And 811 00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:05,839 Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but I'd rather go over 812 00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:11,280 Speaker 1: there not having any regrets, not having things left undone, 813 00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:17,520 Speaker 1: having been courageous in my life. So my best advice is, 814 00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:24,720 Speaker 1: your soul is yearning for experience and knowledge and emotions, 815 00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:28,200 Speaker 1: So do the most that you can hear. Be loving, 816 00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:35,240 Speaker 1: be forgiving, help other people, be of service, go after 817 00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:40,520 Speaker 1: your dreams, be self expressed, say what's in your heart, 818 00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:44,960 Speaker 1: be courageous.
