Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2: And welcome back to Coast to Coast George Nori with
Speaker 2: you along with Mark Anthony.
Speaker 3: Our psychic lawyer, Mark. Is there a divide between our
Speaker 3: world and the other side?
Speaker 4: There is in a lot of people, George, they say
Speaker 4: that this time of the year the veil is closer,
Speaker 4: and that would assume that not just the universe, but
Speaker 4: the multiverses and the various dimensions within each universe are
Speaker 4: somehow dependent on a Northern European agricultural festival from the
Speaker 4: Dark Ages. I think it's just because when people are
Speaker 4: more aware or they're looking for something, they're going to
Speaker 4: be more likely to see it. The truth is, George,
Speaker 4: there is always connection between our world and the other side.
Speaker 4: And as I explained in my books, particularly the afterlife
Speaker 4: frequency that think of our world as AM radio and
Speaker 4: the other side the afterlife is FM radio. So you
Speaker 4: have two energetic systems, you know, involving not only energy
Speaker 4: but frequency, and there are times when the vibrational frequency
Speaker 4: between these two different dimensions will overlap. And that's what
Speaker 4: spirit communication is. I mean, that's a very simplistic way
Speaker 4: of describing spirit communication. But in my work, and we've
Speaker 4: discussed this number of times on coast to coast, you
Speaker 4: and I have, and on beyond. Belief is that all
Speaker 4: of this is based on quantum physics. And obviously people
Speaker 4: centuries ago didn't understand. They didn't have quantum physics, they
Speaker 4: didn't have an understanding of frequency and radio waves and
Speaker 4: the different forms of energy in the electromagnetic spectrum. But
Speaker 4: they did understand when they were making contact with spirits
Speaker 4: from you know, of their loved ones and of the
Speaker 4: sea these people. So yes, there is a divide, But
Speaker 4: the thing is it's here all the time, and we're
Speaker 4: all capable of communicating or sensing the presence of spirits,
Speaker 4: just you know, to varying degrees.
Speaker 3: Is it easy or difficult for you to contact the
Speaker 3: other side.
Speaker 4: It's been part of my DNA, if you will. I mean,
Speaker 4: from pretty much from from the time I can remember,
Speaker 4: I've sensed the presence of spirits. I don't look at
Speaker 4: it as negative or evil. I approach it as a
Speaker 4: sacrament and with reverence. I always pray before spirit communication sessions.
Speaker 4: I asked God to send forth spirits for the highest
Speaker 4: of purposes, to bring messages of love, healing, and resolution
Speaker 4: for the recipients. So for me, it's it's just part
Speaker 4: of who I am.
Speaker 2: I had a guest on last night. I talked about
Speaker 2: demons and I wanted to ask you, have you ever
Speaker 2: witnessed an exorcism?
Speaker 4: I have. I was in the Amazon on I was
Speaker 4: part of a photographic expedition and we're in the Urubamba River,
Speaker 4: which is a tributary of the Amazon in the Peruvian
Speaker 4: part of the Amazon. And there was about maybe thirteen
Speaker 4: passengers and about a dozen crew on this clinkity old
Speaker 4: It was kind of like it was kind of like
Speaker 4: a big version of the African Queen. It was this
Speaker 4: clankity old research vessel and we're in the middle of
Speaker 4: literally nowhere. No all the villages that we visited, there
Speaker 4: was no electricity, no running water. It was as you know,
Speaker 4: there were thatched, you know, thatch roof huts, and all
Speaker 4: of a sudden, all these canoes came up to the
Speaker 4: boat and they were speaking Amara, which is the language
Speaker 4: of the people in that part of Peru. And our
Speaker 4: interpreter said that the brew Ho which is the witch doctor,
Speaker 4: was in this village just just up the river, and
Speaker 4: that he the brew Hoo wanted to invite us because
Speaker 4: he heard that Talks with Ghosts was on the boat.
Speaker 4: And everyone starts looking at me, and apparently George gossip
Speaker 4: in the Amazon spreads like it does everywhere else because
Speaker 4: a few villages before that, the locals there heard through
Speaker 4: our interpreter that I was a medium. So when we
Speaker 4: got to the village and the sun was starting to set,
Speaker 4: there was about one hundred villagers there, and we walked
Speaker 4: up to the hut. And I'm expecting a guy like
Speaker 4: with chicken bones and his nose and feathers.
Speaker 3: And bones in his hands.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and all that.
Speaker 4: Instead is the guy wearing a T shirt and in
Speaker 4: shorts and he was wearing a baseball cap, which I was,
Speaker 4: you know, it was cool, but he was he was
Speaker 4: the brujo, the witch doctor, the shaman, and and he
Speaker 4: was treated with great respect. And he brought us into
Speaker 4: this hut and there was a woman laying on the
Speaker 4: floor looked like her husband next to her her mother.
Speaker 4: And there was about five or six of us because
Speaker 4: some of the other folks on the boat they didn't
Speaker 4: want to go ashore because you know, they heard about
Speaker 4: an exorcism and the woman was supposedly possessed by demons.
Speaker 4: And one of the people with me, he was an
Speaker 4: orthopedic surgeon and he was with his wife, and the
Speaker 4: person next to me was a botanist. And the orthopedic
Speaker 4: surgeon was looking at the woman. He goes, she's not
Speaker 4: possessed by devils. She has a herniated disc and what
Speaker 4: it is. The people there, they didn't understand. She looked normal,
Speaker 4: but there was this horrible pain in her back, and
Speaker 4: because they couldn't explain it, they believed they were demons.
Speaker 4: So the brujo's going through this ritual and he's pouring
Speaker 4: all these liquids. He had all these little bottles with
Speaker 4: these strange liquids and he was pouring them on her back,
Speaker 4: and then he was slurping them off with his mouth.
Speaker 4: He was like doing this whole slurping thing, and then
Speaker 4: he spits this glob into his hand, explaining to us
Speaker 4: through our interpreter. And it was interesting because he was
Speaker 4: it was like, you know, if we were at Harvard
Speaker 4: Medical School watching a doctor with a teaching class. He
Speaker 4: was explaining step by step what he was doing. He
Speaker 4: was so proud that, you know, these these foreigners these
Speaker 4: gringos were here to it to watch. And when he
Speaker 4: spit his glob out, and I'll never forget the orthopedic surgeons. Why,
Speaker 4: she goes, she was like totly grass, you know, it's
Speaker 4: kind of gross. But he was saying that these were
Speaker 4: the demons. And then he threw the glob into this
Speaker 4: fire and started chanting, and he was saying that he
Speaker 4: was casting them into the fire to send them back
Speaker 4: to the darkness. And then all of a sudden he
Speaker 4: said something to me, and the interpreter translated it, and
Speaker 4: and he said, are the demons gone? And everyone's looking
Speaker 4: at me, you know, and and you know, this hut's
Speaker 4: around abile by at least one hundred villagers, and they're
Speaker 4: all straining to listen. I'll never forget the bottles. She's smiling,
Speaker 4: and she said under her teeth, and I'll keep it
Speaker 4: g rated. She goes, Mark, don't screw this up. Screw
Speaker 4: is not the word that she is, because this was
Speaker 4: about as delicate a situation as it could be. And
Speaker 4: what I said was, there are no demons here. Then
Speaker 4: he takes out from this bag that he was carrying,
Speaker 4: this bundle of looks like a weed and then the
Speaker 4: botanist goes, oh, no, he's not. It was the Amazonian
Speaker 4: version of poison ivy, and he starts whipping this woman's
Speaker 4: back and the welts are actually forming, and he's explaining
Speaker 4: that this will keep the demons from going away and
Speaker 4: then she'll feel better in a week, and the surgeon's going,
Speaker 4: my god, yes she'll feel better in a week, because
Speaker 4: you couldn't possibly feel worse than she does now. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: so so. But as far as they were concerned, he
Speaker 4: was exercising demons from her. And it's easy for us
Speaker 4: to walk into a situation with our you know, quote
Speaker 4: unquote modern medical and scientific understanding and past judgment. But
Speaker 4: in their world, demons are very real things. They are
Speaker 4: something you don't understand it. They exist because people are afraid,
Speaker 4: and I think a lot of people that are constantly,
Speaker 4: you know, trying to see and locate demons. We have
Speaker 4: to realize that when dealing with spirits, there are a
Speaker 4: lot of non human spiritual intelligence. I refer to a
Speaker 4: lot of them as elementals. I'm going to be in
Speaker 4: an upcoming episode of a new series on Discovery Channel,
Speaker 4: Destinations of the Dann with Zach Beggins, and in the
Speaker 4: episode that I'm in, it takes place in Indiana, and
Speaker 4: I won't you know, I won't give a spoiler alert,
Speaker 4: but I believe that elementals, non human spiritual intelligence were
Speaker 4: very present in that location. And the thing is, George,
Speaker 4: it's very easy when encountering a spiritual entity that is
Speaker 4: not human or was not human, to immediately assume that
Speaker 4: it's negative, and through that fear, the way we fear
Speaker 4: the unknown, we interpret it as being somehow demonic or evil.
Speaker 4: And that's why in the approach that I take to
Speaker 4: paranormal investigations and supernatural phenomenon is that we have to
Speaker 4: apply the scientific method of objective observation and avoid jumping
Speaker 4: to conclusions, collect the data, analyze it, observe it, and
Speaker 4: then in the aftermath of the investigation, then we can
Speaker 4: start to hypothesize and come up with theories as opposed to, oh,
Speaker 4: i'm feeling a spirit I don't understand it, it must
Speaker 4: be a demon. So that I think is where a
Speaker 4: lot of my colleagues, and most the colleagues that I
Speaker 4: work with, don't do things like that, but I think
Speaker 4: the less experienced ones tend to want to demonize everything
Speaker 4: if you will.
Speaker 2: Sometimes as ago when you were on the program Mark,
Speaker 2: we talked about curses of King UT's tomb.
Speaker 3: Anything new there.
Speaker 4: Well, yes, Perhaps the greatest pharaoh, or at least he
Speaker 4: thought so, of all time was Ramses the Second And
Speaker 4: anyone that seen the movie The Ten Commandments, No, Yule
Speaker 4: Brenner was born to play the role of Ramses, and
Speaker 4: Ramsey's the Great ruled for roughly seventy years. He ruled
Speaker 4: about on twelve fifty BC. Well, long story short, He
Speaker 4: and other kings in the eighteenth and nineteenth dynasty, like
Speaker 4: King Tut, were buried in the Valley of the Kings,
Speaker 4: But those ancient tombs were plundered by grave robbers back
Speaker 4: in those days. So like, within about two hundred years
Speaker 4: of Ramses being buried, his tomb and several others were plundered,
Speaker 4: and the ancient Egyptian priests found the desecrated tombs and
Speaker 4: the desecrated mummies, and they rewrapped them and they hid
Speaker 4: them in a cave in a location near Dir l Bahrai.
Speaker 4: And in eighteen seventy this cave was discovered and within
Speaker 4: it were over fifty mummies, including some of Egypt's most
Speaker 4: powerful pharaohs, Yeah, including Ramseys the second and what it was.
Speaker 4: They were placed in wooden coffins, and you know, very
Speaker 4: ornate and certainly not like the golden coffin of King
Speaker 4: tud because all those had been you know, ransacked and
Speaker 4: destroyed and melted down centuries before. Well, the mummies were
Speaker 4: loaded on ships and brought up the Nile River north
Speaker 4: to Cairo. Thousands of people George lined the banks of
Speaker 4: the Nile River to pay homage to Egypt's greatest kings.
Speaker 4: I mean that must have just been a site to behold. Well.
Speaker 4: About thirty years later, in nineteen oh two, a group
Speaker 4: of Egyptologists were examining the mummy of Ramsey's the Great.
Speaker 4: I mean we're talking Ramsy's the Great. I mean, he
Speaker 4: built temples everywhere, ruled for seventy years. He was in
Speaker 4: his nineties when he died, you know, and he was
Speaker 4: thought of as God and a God incarnate on earth.
Speaker 4: And so he was placed in this glass case and suddenly,
Speaker 4: in front of dozens of people, the mummy raised one
Speaker 4: of its hands and it slapped the glass cover of
Speaker 4: the case. Everybody was horrified. Some of the people ran
Speaker 4: for the doors, thinking we've evoked a curse.
Speaker 3: How does that happen?
Speaker 4: Well, as it turned out, the Pharaoh's mummy was not
Speaker 4: in a controlled environment, and the sudden change in temperature
Speaker 4: caused the tendons of the arm to contract spontaneously, so
Speaker 4: his arm lurched. And and can you imagine, though, You're
Speaker 4: sitting there looking at this, and you know there's there's
Speaker 4: circulating rumors that there's a curse, and all of a sudden,
Speaker 4: the mummy moves its arm and slaps the case. And
Speaker 4: to this day, the hand that raised has not contracted fully.
Speaker 4: It's still raises, you know, still just a little bit
Speaker 4: above above his body. So if but the thing is,
Speaker 4: Ramses was considered the living incarnation of a god, and
Speaker 4: if any mummy could come back to life, I'm pretty
Speaker 4: sure it would have been Ramsey's.
Speaker 3: The second what does that tell you about the other side? Mark?
Speaker 4: It tells us that we the Egyptians focused on preservation
Speaker 4: of the body. And you know, because I've always wondered,
Speaker 4: you know, they wrap up these bodies, they put them
Speaker 4: in these coffins, not just one, but three, then in
Speaker 4: a sarcophagus and buried them underground. Did they expect these
Speaker 4: bodies to resurrect, and actually what they expected was a
Speaker 4: spiritual resurrection. And the Egyptian believe that the preservation of
Speaker 4: the body had a direct relationship to the preservation of
Speaker 4: the soul. Now that was their belief, and other religions
Speaker 4: believe that. But whereas like the Romans, and to an extent,
Speaker 4: the Greeks, used to burn the bodies of their heroes,
Speaker 4: which the Egyptians were mortified by. But the truth is
Speaker 4: that our soul is not created by the brain or
Speaker 4: by the body. It pre exists. The body comes into
Speaker 4: the body, moves on after the body dies, and so
Speaker 4: we have all these different rituals to honor that, and
Speaker 4: I think that's really a good thing. George.
