Channeling Erik

  • November30th

    I've often wondered how Erik chooses which blog members to visit, haven't you? Many months ago, he seem to pop in on readers randomly just for the thrill of their reaction. Look back on his visit to Damien in Ireland. (Erik Travels Abroad, posted July 23rd) As you may remember, more highly evolved spiritual beings encouraged him to find more purpose for each visit. Aside from the fun and games he has with members of his soul group (Jason, Robert and perhaps others,) he has risen to the challenge. His visits seem to comfort those who doubt, those who miss loved ones, and those who have temporarily lost their way. If you fit the description of someone he'll visit, prepare for the hyper energy, the pranks, and the smells. When he comes to call, please give him a hug from me. 

    Channeling Transcript

    Me: Okay, I had one gentleman email me today. His name is Don. I really don’t know anything about him other than he lives in the Austin area. Anyway, he read that we were in the Lake Travis area near Austin that one time I blogged about.

    Kim: Yes.

    Me: Remember that? I wrote about the two dragonflies that kept hanging around us no matter where we boated in the lake?

    Kim: Uh huh.

    Me: So, Don got really big goosebumps at that same time, and he was thinking, “Gosh, I wonder if that was Erik.” Then a couple of days ago, he got this really strong stinky sock aroma, and he’s just wondering if it was really Erik or if it was his imagination.

    Kim laughs really hard for a long time.

    Kim (still laughing): That is one of the funniest things I have ever heard! Stinky socks? Must be Erik! Oh, Elisa, that is so funny!

    Me: It’s true though. That’s his calling card—obnoxious smells. Yummy.

    Kim continues to belly laugh.

    Kim: Well, you see, I haven’t had that bit of enjoyment yet, and Erik, that’s okay! That's okay! You can just communicate with me telepathically! That’s so funny.

    Erik (chuckling): Absolutely. Absolutely.

    Me: So Erik, how do you choose which blog members to visit? I mean, how do you make your choices?

    Erik: I go to the ones that need me most, but I also go to the ones who will receive me. Some people who really need communication can’t perceive me. Their vibration is just too dense for me to get through.

    Me: Ah, okay.

    Erik; Yeah, it doesn’t have that much to do with who I’ve been with in past life times, although that’s a minor part of it. I go by two criteria.

    Kim: I like the word, “criteria.”

    Erik: Number one, they have to muster up the courage and take the time to email you, Mom. Number two, they have to need my help the most. Now, I’m the one that determines that, because the other readers will say, “Well, um, helloooo,  am I chopped liver? Look at the stuff I got going on!”

    Kim: It’s the ones that need him most and the ones that Erik feels he’s going to be able to help. If these other bloggers, these emailers, are getting the help they need from another source, whether they realize it or not, he is not going to step in.

    Me: Yes, I understand.

    Kim: Wow, that makes very good sense!

    Me: Yes it does! Okay, now, what about—

    Kim: Oh, Elisa, he has a message for you.

    Me: Oh really? Okay, what is it O’ Wise One?

    Kim: He says he likes the TV. You guys have a big TV.

    Me: Well, it’s not super big, but…

    Kim: He’s going to be turning it off and on, changing the channels—

    Me: Oh, good!

    Erik: Yeah, Mom. You’ve been asking me for more tangible demonstrations of my presence, so here’s what I’m going to do. You guys are going to be watching TV, and I’ll change the channel, and nobody will be touching it, and, uh, you know, right before I do it, I’m gonna telepathically say, “Okay Mom, I’m going to change it now!

    Me: Oh, okay.

    Erik: And “boom,” it’s gonna change.

    Kim: Elisa, it’s the most amazing thing, because I bet you a quarter your brain will say for a minute, “Okay, wait, wait, who’s got the clicker, how did that happen?” And he’ll say, “Mom, it’s me!”

    (Kim and I chuckle.)

    Kim: So he’s going to start giving you tangible evidence in ways that he tells you about first, and then he’ll do it.

    Me: How do you do that, Erik? How do you do that?

    Erik: It’s moving, um, manipulating energy, manipulating material and electrical energy.

    Kim: Oh, and he’s going to be giving you a head’s up about evidence you’re going to get, Elisa, in ways that you can’t create inside your own head.

    Me: Oh, yeah, of course.

    Kim: So, in other words, he’s not going to say, “Oh, I’m going to be a bird outside,” when you can look and there’s a million freaking birds outside.

    Me: Oh, sure, no.

    Kim: So it’ll be stuff you can’t create with your own—

    Me: Yes, I understand.

    Kim: Okay, okay.

    Shortly after this session, our TV did indeed change channels and turn off by itself several times. Men sure do have a hard time letting go of that remote control! Even death is no match for their lust for the mighty clicker! Little sneak. I love him so much.

    Kerry’s Questions

    Elisa,

    Thank you so much for getting back to me so quickly.  I agree, I worry that the e-mail I previously sent would have too much identifying information.  So, in interest of anonymity, here are the basic facts:

    Me: Kerry; from Tyler, TX; I was 16 when Brian and I met, 23 when he passed

    Brandon: from Waco, TX; he was 17 when we met, 24 when he passed; a 1st Lieutenant in the Army

    Questions:

    1. Do you love me to the extent that I love you?

    2. Do you feel I am making the right decision regarding where my life is going and who I am choosing to spend it with?  Do you approve?

    3. Did we know each other in a different lifetime or realm or whatever there is out there?  Will we somehow reunite and be close down the road?

    4. Will I beat this depression?  Can you help me?

    In regards to Kim, Jeannie and Jamie, is connecting to him as effective if I am working with them over the phone?  That would be my only hesitation, otherwise I would love to at least try speaking to him directly.

    Thank you again Elisa.

    Kerry

    Channeling Transcript

    Kim: Okay, Elisa, what’s on the agenda for today?

    Me: Well, I’d like to ask one more “Ask Erik” question for someone. I’m pretty sure this will be the last one until I get all the questions answered for the book.

    Kim: Oh, okay.

    Me: This one’s from Kerry. She’s from Tyler, TX. When she was 16, she met her fiancée, Brandon. He was 24 when he died, but I’m not sure where. Uh, it must have been in Iraq or Afghanistan, because he was in the military, but I can’t be certain.

    Kim (sympathetically): Aw, wow!

    Me: Her first question to Brandon is, “Do you love me to the extent that I love you?”

    Kim: Do we know how old Kerry is now?

    Me: Oh, gosh, no. Dang it, I didn’t get that information. She was 23 when he passed away. It seemed like it was pretty recent.

    Kim: Okay, um, and golly, I’m so sorry for her.

    Me: Yeah, it’s rough.

    Kim: You know, he’s with her!

    Me: Oh!

    Kim: Um, he adores her! He cannot believe she’s asking that question. He can—not—believe it! He's laughing real big! He knows she’s not asking because she’s wondering; she’s asking, because she needs to hear him tell her again how much he loves her, how devoted to her he is. She was his only love. He pledged undying love to her, and that’s what it’s going to be. So, in other words, he says it transcends time and space.

    Erik: He says he loves her as much, if not more, as he ever did, and he’s totally aware that she feels the same way. They’re always gonna love each other, and he’s saying they’re gonna be together all the rest of this lifetime, and then when she comes back to heaven, uh, oh, and he says he knows she keeps thinking she’s gonna die young to be with him, but she’s not. She’s gonna be at least into her late 80s when she dies. So he’s going to be with her the whole time she’s there on the earthly plane. She’ll feel his presence. She’s going to have dreams about him. She’s gonna end up marrying someone else and having kids, cuz that’s her destiny, but Brandon will always be with her. She’s always going to feel him, and she’ll know when she does. It won’t make a bit of difference what anyone else says or believes; she’ll know he’s right there with her.

    Me: Wow.

    Erik: Oh, and he’s gonna give her tons of messages, but not just through dreams. Mom, you know how when we need like information or something and a complete stranger will say something to us that we know is a message from either our guides or a deceased loved one?

    Me: Oh, yeah, sure!

    Erik: Yeah, so she’s gonna have lots of that with Brandon. So, she’ll have tangible evidence that he’s with her.

    Me: Oh, how wonderful!

    Erik: And he wants her to know it was his destiny to die the way and when he did. He had a sense that it was going to happen. He was really intuitive, and Kerry knows that. So he had a sense that it was going to happen.

    Me: Okay. She also wants to know if she’s making the right decisions on where her life is going and who she’s choosing to spend it with. In other words, she wants to know if Brandon approves.

    Kim: He says, “Yeah, sure!” Like he’s shrugging his shoulders saying, “Yeah.” Brandon, you sound so casual like she’s just asked you, you know, if it’s okay to have creamed corn for dinner, I mean, do you—Oh, he says that those are just details.

    Erik: Brandon was never a detail person. He’s an idea person. He could handle details, but what he cares about is the big picture: her happiness, contentment, peace of mind, and as long as she’s feeling that, the details don’t matter to him. It’s like, “I don’t care, as long as she’s happy!”

    Me: Did they know each other in a previous—

    Erik: Yes. Well, they’re romantic soulmates, so they have a long history together. They’ve had lots of lifetimes in England during the time of the Crusades with her as a female and Brandon as a male. In every lifetime they’ve had, they’ve been married.

    Me: Oh!

    Kim: That’s a little unusual! Often, we change relationships, so…

    Me: Interesting! Now for the last question: will she ever beat this depression she has, and is there any way Brandon can help her?

    Kim: What’s going to help with the depression is for her to learn how to channel him and her angels where she’s actually going to get answers back and not just her saying, “Brandon, are you there? Are you there?” and not getting replies. Um, she needs to download the free hour-long angel tutorial from my website.

    Me: Oh, yeah! That’d be extremely helpful!

    Kim: That’s what she needs to do. Medication is not going to help, because once she gets off the medication, it’s still going to be there.

    Erik: If Kerry learns what she has to look forward to and if she remembers the fact that Brandon is always with her, that’ll get her over the depression and will allow her to fulfill the destiny she has left there on the earthly plane. I mean, Mom, there’s a big reason she’s supposed to stick around until she’s in her late 80s, early 90s. She’s got a lot to do on behalf of other people, helping them, but also building a life she can love as well.

    Kerry’s Response

    Elisa and Erik,

    I cannot express how much reading this e-mail meant to me.  It has been one of those crazy days where you just feel buried and I needed something to bring my spirits back up. 

    There is so much that he communicated that is classic Brandon.  The laughter when you asked if he loves me, how intuitive he is, his comment about how who I marry and have children with is "minor details", how he knew he would die young, how he will contact me through strangers…it amazes me how much of Brandon's personality came through. 

    It's interesting that contacting me through strangers came up.  My boss of 9 months randomly calls me nicknames Brandon did.  I passed it off as a coincidence, but now I really wonder if it is Brandon speaking through him, just giving me a little "Hey, I'm here."  Our history together fascinates me and is something I desperately want to learn more about.  We are both "old souls," and I had a feeling we had met before, but the multiple lifetimes spent together is…shocking?  Interesting?  I'm not sure what the right word is there.  It certainly makes sense though, we knew and understood each other on such a deep level.  It was like we were written into one another's souls. 

    I am excited to listen to Kim's teleseminar.  I would love to learn how to communicate with him and any others who are open to it.  The feelings surrounding depression are so isolating and all-consuming (as you know).  It would help so much just to know there is a presence there helping me through difficult times.

    I am so in awe of the response you and Erik were able to get from him.  Brandon is right, I don't doubt he is always with me but I needed to hear it so I could know that it wasn't just wishful thinking.  You and Erik have given me so much joy and hope and have made me feel a lot less alone in this world.  I can never thank you enough for those gifts.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you.

    All my love,

    Kerry

    Kerry's Second Response

    Hi Elisa,

    I wanted to let both you and Erik know what a peaceful weekend I had.  For the first time in over a year it felt like a weight was lifted from my shoulders and that I could really KNOW that Brandon was with me.  Thank you, thank you, thank you for that gift.

    - Kerry

    Sweet Kerry, may you have many decades of peaceful weekends to come. You are meant to be here, Brandon by your side, so that you can bring wonderful things to the world. {{{{HUGS TO YOU AND BRANDON}}}}

     

  • November28th

    Parts of this entry may be met with controversy, as you will soon see. No politics, though, I promise. You're advice on whether to edit out those parts will be very much appreciated. Erik was not at all clear about whether or not I should filter some of his volatile comments.

    Channeling Transcript

    Me: Okay, now what do I tell people when you’ve spent a lot of time here talking about how easy death usually is and how wonderful the afterlife can be? What’s to stop them from wanting to go there before it’s their time? I mean, you make a great case for dying. What can I tell them, Sweetie?

    Erik: Well, first, Mom, you gotta define what is “before their time.”

    Me: Oh, yeah, yeah, exactly. I guess what I want to know is what’s to keep people from committing suicide given you’re descriptions about Heaven, uh, when they maybe shouldn’t go that route?

    (Long pause)

    Me: It’s like getting off early from work when you’re not supposed to, you know? “It’s Friday; I’m leaving at two!”

    Jamie (laughing): Sneaking out!

    Me: Yeah.

    Jamie: He has a really different tone when he’s talking right now. (pause) It’s not his, “Hey, I’m telling you a story. I’m chit-chatting.” His tone has kind of dropped a level—more sincere.

    Erik: Mom, if people are at the place of suicide, and they’re romancing that idea—cuz that’s what it’s like; you have to romance it for a while before you test yourself to see if you have the strength to do it or not.

    Me (somberly): Um hm.

    Erik: If you find out you have the strength, I’m going to tell you right then and there, Mom, it’s not a wrong choice. I don’t know if you ever want to write that in a book.

    Me: Well, should I or shouldn’t I?

    Erik: I just don’t want you to catch hell, because people are going to rise up against you—humans need to have the structure and the rules. They have to be told what is right and wrong. But really, we’re supposed to do that internally for ourselves. And yes, Mom, people can be saved from suicide; people can be stopped; uh, a friend can show up and take the gun away; an unexpected person can arrive and pump their stomach of the pills they just took. Those are the moments of salvation that scream: “You have a second chance.”

    Me (sadly): Yeah. How I wish…

    Erik: But if you actually follow through on the suicide, and you achieve it, most of the time—I’ll say 70% of the time—you’re supposed to go. You're supposed to go. But you’re right, there’s the other 30%–that’s a loose number—but there are those few who succeed that really should have had that second chance.

    Me: Oh, yeah.

    Erik: Those are the ones that have such a rough time over here in the afterlife, Mom. They have to retrace their steps as if they were living and help those who were supposed to be a crucial part of their life. You think it’s hard to communicate with someone who won’t listen to you? It’s way more difficult to talk while you’re dead to someone who’s living. It’s a real pain. It’s frustrating! So imagine the hardships that soul has trying to amend and make things smooth after their accidental "success" of suicide.

    Me: You mean in trying to help those they left behind? Those who are grieving, who feel betrayed, abandoned?

    Erik: Yeah. Yeah, cuz maybe it was in five years that the guy was supposed to win the lottery and give twenty thousand to his mom—

    Me: Oh, yeah! I see!

    Erik: —so she could develop a way to cure a toe fungus.

    Me (chuckling): Ah!

    Erik: And now that the guy killed himself, that’s not gonna happen. So now, he has to find ways to get other people in his mom’s life to do that, to give her the money and follow through with the destiny he cut short.

    Me: Okay.

    Erik: There’s that missing link, because they chose that free will option, and they followed through with it instead of allowing the structures of life to teach them.

    Me: But the other ones who have a, um, those for whom it’s okay to commit suicide as their exit point, is that always predetermined between lives?

    Erik: Predetermined? Yes.

    Me: Like, “Okay, I’m finished with my spiritual contract, so…”

    Erik: Yes.

    Me: Okay.

    Erik: Wouldn’t it be great if we could change the term, “commit suicide?” To “be committed,” that’s like jail time.

    Me: Yeah, I guess for those who die at their predestined exit point, death is freeing.

    Erik: Yeah, what's up with that? 

    Me: Well, were you one of the 30% or one of the 70%?

    Erik: Oh, I was one of the 70%.

    Me: So it was your time?

    Erik: Yes.

    Me: Wow. Well, look at all the good you’re doing, so maybe it was. So, was this planned between lives for you, or was it one of many exit points for you?

    Erik: It was planned, but you’re right, it was one of many possible exit points. My other one’s would have soon followed this one. It wasn’t like thirty more years, and there’d be another opportunity. They were all grouped together in my twenties.

    Me: Why was this your designed exit point? What was the reason? It seems like you were just so confused about what you were here to do, so why, uh—

    Erik: Because I have a bigger voice here, Mom.

    Me: Oh, okay.

    Erik: You’re my megaphone. And through your experiences of this, other people around the world have been enlightened and will be enlightened.

    Me: So, in a way, it was your destiny, and the whole purpose was for you to help others with your bigger voice in the afterlife? Is that what you’re saying? I just want to make sure I get this right.

    Erik: Yeah, and to help you find your place, Mom.

    Me: Oh, okay. Like we’ve talked about before, early on, you said it was not your destiny.

    Erik: Well, right after death, you’re more likely to be a little confused. I wasn’t totally oriented to what was going on, what happened and why.

    Me: Yeah, I remember you saying that. It makes so much more sense. Of course, I’d much rather your death be something you designed between lives for a higher purpose, but it also explains why, of all the kids, I could never imagine you getting old, getting married, having kids, and—

    Erik: Yeah, neither could I.

    Me: So, I guess I must have known deep inside.

    (Pause)

    Jamie (in mock offense): No! Erik, that’s just mean! He says women aren’t the best mediums—

    I gasp!

    Jamie: See, isn’t that mean?

    Me (laughing): You are so grounded, Mister!

    Jamie: He says we tend to want to console, and so we put our own feelings within the reading to sugarcoat things. If you were to find a male medium, they’re a little more dry and harsh, less compassionate, so they’d tend to say things straight up.

    Me: Well, gosh, I find that, in general, women are much better at channeling!

    Jamie: Yeah, we’re more receptive!

    Me (chuckling): That’s right, more receptive! What’s with that, Erik, you male chauvinist!

    Erik (laughing): Pig?

    Me: Yes, yes, yes, that’s what I was going to say, but I didn’t want to diss the pigs!

    Jamie (laughing hard): You didn’t want to hurt the pig’s feelings! He’s laughing so hard!

    Me: So, it was your destiny, right? This is important to me, so I want to clarify it completely.

    Erik: Yep, it was my destiny to check out.

    Me: So, Erik, what’s your advice to those who want to kill themselves?

    Erik: Don’t do it if it’s not 100% your destiny, because your problems won’t go away with death. For instance, if you have a bad self-esteem, it’ll still suck. If you have problems with confidence, with intimacy, with openness, you’ll still have these problems when you cross, plus you’ll just feel so horrible about what you’ve done to those you love. On top of all that, you’ll have to clean up the mess you left behind with your loved ones and the destinies that have been altered by the ripple effect from your death. People who kill themselves are really shocked by that when they cross over. They think it’s a clean release with no more crap to deal with. And cleaning up all this type of shit is much harder to do in the afterlife.

    Me: Well, that should be enough to convince them. Okay, so is there anything else you want to say about anything? You talked about death, what happens afterwards, the life review, the socializing period, and, well, I guess that’s it as far as the sequence of what happens at and shortly after death. So, then what? You go to different classes, you underwent some therapy, you’ve evolved there in the afterlife according to your changing belief system. I remember at the beginning you were in an environment very similar to the earthly plane, because that’s what your belief system seemed to mesh with. And now you’ve graduated out of that, because your belief system opened up to greater possibilities, right? Tell me in your own words for the book.

    Erik: You could say belief systems, but it’s more like—

    Jamie (giggling): Baby birds? Really, Erik?

    Erik: Yeah, it’s like being a baby bird—

    Jamie (after listening to Erik’s explanation for a bit): Oh, that’s right, baby birds are born knowing everything!

    Me: Oh, really? Cool!

    Erik: Yeah, they don’t have to learn anything. They’re born with all their knowing, their lessons, already done. They know how to build a nest; they know how to fly; they know everything.

    Me: Oh, yeah!

    Erik: So when you die, you’re a baby bird, and it just takes time for you to open up. It’s not really about learning things; it’s about remembering what you already know.

    Me: Awesome metaphor, Erik. Okay, Baby, I guess that’s all we have time for. Thank you so much, Jamie.  Alright, Sweetie, until next time.

    Jamie (giggling): He’s blowing you kisses!

    Me: Aw, thank you, Erik. I love you.

     

  • November25th

    Me: Okay, so one thing we didn’t really cover in detail is what happened after you died, Erik. I know you went to see your friend, Valentin, then you went to Norway to see your grandfather and then to see Denise, but can you give me more blow by blow specifics?

    Erik: You mean after I got to see everybody?

    Me: Yeah.

    Erik: Well, it felt like I got to say hello for a long time, and, uh, I guess you could say it calmed me down.

    Me: Okay.

    (Long pause)

    Jamie: Erik, I don’t know how to describe that. (pause) Sometimes he’ll give me a picture, but I’m making him say everything verbally, because I, uh, it’s a really pretty grey—I normally think of grey as being dull, but if you can imagine a pretty grey, almost like a bright, silvery grey—

    Me: Oh, yeah, okay.

    Jamie: —it would be like you were standing in a room with 50-foot ceilings.

    Erik: I know I’m not in a room, but I can’t see far into the distance. It’s like being in a fog, but there’s no fear or worry that something’s going to pop out of the fog.

    Me: Oh, okay.

    Erik: Cuz it sorta seems like you’re in a room and nobody is gonna pop through a wall to get you. (Laughing) That’s what you think if you hold on to those earthly beliefs.

    Me: Exactly.

    Erik: But really, that whole “life flashes before your eyes”…I get it. You get it. Everyone gets it. Sometimes it happens right at the moment of death.

    Me: Uh huh.

    Erik: Commonly if you’re getting it right away, that means you’re going to get right back into your body.

    Me: Oh, really? Wow!

    Erik: Yeah, cuz that’s the whole big, “Wow! Holy shit! Look what just happened! My life flashed before me; now I know how I want to be; now I know who I want to be.”

    Me: Like with near death experiences! I see that same thing happening in those NDE accounts. Yeah, exactly. They immediately go through the life review.

    Erik: Yeah. That’s the real power punch kick in the ass, but if you’re expected, if you know you’re arriving and that this is it, often you’re greeted by family, and then the life review begins to happen. It’s like I am in everybody else’s body looking at me. I feel what the people around me got to feel when I behaved a certain way, when I did something specific.

    Me: Wow!

    Erik: So you feel overwhelming joy, sorrow, regret, but by seeing it from someone else’s perspective, that’s how you know who you are! You experience it from an outside source.

    Me: Yeah, fascinating!

    Erik: Think about it, Mom. That’s how God is learning who She/He is—by learning from outside sources, which is us!

    Me: Wow, that’s interesting. Very interesting. And then what happened?

    Erik: I realized how awful I was.

    Me: Oh no!!! You weren’t awful, Baby!

    Erik: C’mon, Mom, Mom, I know you’re my mom, but I was pretty mean.

    Me: No. I disagree. You got angry sometimes, but 99% of the time you were very kind and sweet. Oh my gosh, Erik. I mean obviously you were troubled and had those moments of anger, but most of the time you were so, uh, I looked at all of your Facebook messages the other day and so many of your friends were so shocked. They never knew you hid any darkness inside. Monica P. was so upset. She said you were always so happy and sweet; you always said hello and always stopped to talk, and—most people did not know you were sad and angry inside. That was the disease talking, not the real Erik. Plus I read your messages to some of your friends who were in pain. You told them you wanted to be there for them, to be a kind ear for them. Who does that? You were very giving and special. I mean, you are
    .
    (Long pause)

    Erik: Wow! Hmm. I’m surprised, cuz I felt like I was an open book.

    Me: Hm. Maybe people just didn’t bother really seeing.

    Erik: But during the life review, you see it, you experience it, and you judge yourself. No one is there to judge you but you. You think there’s this guy on a golden throne with a staff pointed at your heart, you know, telling you to do twenty push-ups.

    Me (laughing): I SMITE YOU!!!

    Erik (laughing): Yes! But that’s not it. When it’s over, you’re left with yourself. You’re left to think for yourself. I don’t know if I sat with my head in my hands for days or hours. All I know is that’s the only place I was. (pause) And when it was all over, when I was done understanding who I was and what I did, then I could go back and engage with—well, I didn’t really go back. It’s just like this silvery grey fog went away, and I found myself in a different place. I didn’t feel like I was in control or like I was asking for certain things. I was just witnessing a process. I was just part of a process.

    Me: What was that other place you found yourself in?

    Erik: That’s when it turned into gardens and paths and my family was there. That’s when it became social, like, “Let me show you around.”

    Me: Oh, yeah!

    Erik: And they’re like, “Let me show you what you’re capable of doing. Let me help you.”

    Me: Wow! Who’s the one that helped you the most? Was it somebody we know, or was it a guide, or—

    Erik: There were a few, and it’s hard to say who helped me most.

    Jamie: He’s talking about an aunt.

    Me: Yeah, that’d be my younger sister, Denise.

    Jamie: A grandmother.

    Me: Bestemor, Rune’s mom.

    Jamie: And a man who’s not related to him.

    Me: Okay.

    (Long pause)

    Jamie: Tell me about that man, Erik. (pause as she listens to Erik) The man. (pause) I keep hearing a name like Simon. It sounds so simple.

    Me (laughing): Simple Simon!

    Erik: That’s when I was able to make new friends, where I was able to understand the dynamics of the place where I was.

    Me: And all during that, you felt very comfortable, I guess?

    Erik: Yeah, Mom. It was weird. If that would have been happening on earth, I would have felt like I was being kidnapped.

    Me: Oh my God, yeah!

    Erik: I would have been freaked out.

    Me: Um hm.

    Erik: But it was like, I felt warm all over. I couldn’t cry. I couldn’t cry if I wanted to. There was so much joy, silent joy around me.

    Me: Wow.

    Erik: And when you feel that, you definitely don’t wanna go jump back into your body!

    Me: Yeah. Do you have spirit guides over there? Do you have your own personal guides, like guardian angels that take care of you over there too?

    Erik: Sure, but they’re more like teachers.

    Me: Oh, okay.

    Erik: You know, because they do want you to learn for yourself, take care of yourself. We’re not seen as helpless, but on earth, we are.

    Here’s a fantastic story a blog reader shared with me. Her experience was occurring while she typed the text below in an email she then sent to me. After you read this, perhaps you can offer her your insight. Personally, I think she was surrounded by spiritual boarders, but your input would be great!

    Hi Elisa,

    Sorry it’s been so long since I’ve checked in with you. But….I’m having a bizarre experience right now as I am typing. Let me preface this with I am not on any illegal drugs or mind altering drugs. I have also not had any alcohol at all today. I do not suffer from any psychological disorders either. This is occuring in a room that I sit in every day and the activity just picked up a notch…out of nowhere! Normally if I felt an unknown human hand grab the side of my head and cup my chin to push and angle my face to the computer- I would scream call the police, but this particular hand (which is still holding my head -not hurting me in any way though) is still here but invisible. Also when I was typing messages to my mother (not about death or afterlife) out of the corner of my eye was a man sitting in a chair. He was a tall man in white clothes, like he was going to sunday church. I don’t know his ethnicity but I know he was very tall. OK, this hand on my head has moved from the side of my head to the very top. I don’t know what this means. The man is gone, and for all I know it’s him holding my head now. There are shadows walking back and forth behind me. I do not look becuase I’m afraid of what I’ll see or I’ll see everything normal again because it’s not out of the corner of my eye. The walking/talking they seem to be doing are barely audible, but the energy is very noticable. The are definitely shadows and the shadows are crossing over my hands and computer screen as well. VERY clearly visible. I don’t see my grandmother here, but I’m trying to stay as calm as possible. I don’t want to upset anyone. I’m happy they’re. I think they know that now.

    OK Now there is a apparition of a small child, very petite, she is right next to me. She’s nervous and has her hand in her mouth. This apparition even blocks out light but dissapears when I turn to quick to look. Her energy is sweet and timid. Very sweet young girl. I get the sense that she is misguided right now. Maybe she just crossed and has gotten lost? This is by far the most bizarre experience I’ve ever ever had. And now I understand how hard it is to behave “normally” and to try to use your own resources (church, police, media, etc) to help these people and to even be helped. I turned to look at the girl, and she silently left. She went out my front door, silently, shyly, quickly. At that moment, my mother (who has no idea of any of this) is posting comments on one of my photos on facebook and my phone alerted the message; “Lisa is on the front porch.” OK CONFIRMED! haha. Wow.

    There is now someone new next to me. Not the tall man. I think he took my head to guide and assure me I need to be typing. This is a teenager, I think a girl, but could be wrong. Whoever it is, they are depressed. They’ve died. Long hair, can’t tell if it’s a boy or girl yet. They are depressed and I may not be able to help them. They thought I could but I didn’t. Gosh. Everyone is gone, in an instant. They are on my back porch and I see them silently casting shadows and conversing. They’re not mad, they’re frustrated and I think the fact I couldn’t help.

    I’m pausing now. I have never in my life had apparitions in front of me (that I knew of) butI am looking right now at two small people, one may be a dog. Looking at me, directly at me from the sliding glass window to our sunroom. The are moving, they have the ability to communicate. I am not letting them in; They’lll manage.. There are still whispers, but those are slight. I’m ok with that. If whispers ever become loud or seem to be commands, I’m taking my ass to a psychiatrist and priest!

    Wow. This is incredible. I keep looking at what I saw and turning away and relooking and -yep I saw it, because I still see them.
    Now the tone is not as comfortable for me because I heard someone breathe and walk behind me, I would think they would show up in my peripheral, they did not, when I turned, they showed themselves to me IN FRONT ME in plain sight, about 1 inch from my face. IT stopped after that and when I turned away it was gone.

    I’ve just ordered all of them to leave for now (that’s what I’ve seen you’re suppose to do) and am just doing cleansing breaths. So they weren’t happy about that.

    So, what do you think??? Am I crazy??
    Wow, I need another sensitive in here with me! Never in a million years did I think this could happen before my very eyes. Wow.
    Well, that’s it for now. And, unfortunately, nothing that specifically mentions Erik, but we’re left with clues. Perhaps time will tell.

  • November24th

    Before I share this post, I’d like to tell you all how much I love you. I hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving. And to those of you who, like me, will be missing the presence of a loved one tomorrow, know that they are and will be with you forever. We must try to be thankful for the time we had them in the physical. In sorrow, one can always find joy.

    Me: Okay, now, Erik. What about children? What is there experience after death, since they really don’t have a belief system indoctrinated into them? (pause) Can you tell me more about that?

    Erik: Well, most of the time, with children, they know they’re going to die in advance.

    Me: Oh, okay.

    Erik: There’s not fear around it, so their perspective of death is very clear.

    Me: That’s good.

    Erik: Think about it, Mom. Fear is part of a belief system and it clouds our perspective a lot. Fear comes from an expectation of what it should be like and it doesn’t happen according those expectations. That’s why some grownups are afraid when they first cross over.

    (I’ll share more on why people are afraid of death while they’re alive in recent channeling session.)

    Erik: But with little kids, there is no fear. Fear is the underbelly of belief, Mom.

    Jamie: Oh, he gave me a cool visual with that. It was like, I guess an animal belly, like a big fat cow belly, but it was red, like on fire. And like that was the fear, like the underbelly of belief.

    Me: Wow.

    Jamie: It was just a quick cool image.

    Erik: So, kids don’t have that. They cross, no fear, feeling completely safe.

    Me: Oh that’s so good.

    Erik: Yeah, I know. So they’re wide-eyed; they’re looking around.

    Me: Uh huh.

    Erik: And the Light is present, and God is felt in everything, everywhere. Who the hell would be afraid of that?

    Me: Yeah.

    Erik: And then commonly, if they know or recognize a family member, that person will be there.

    Me: Good.

    Erik: If they’re young enough, Mom, they remember the spirits that were there to greet them off, uh, send them off, when they were about to go into the belly.

    Me: Oh, yeah!

    Erik: And if they’re going by miscarriage or abortion, that’s a very hard lesson to learn, so that baby spirit gets a heads up. They’re doing it strictly to get the lesson themselves—

    Me: Okay.

    Erik: —on, you know, not being able to complete the process, or they’re really making a true sacrifice. They go through it so that the mother other family members can have the lesson. In that case, it’s often to learn about loss. It’s just so different every time. But I promise you that in every case of miscarriage, stillbirths and abortion, that baby knows. You can’t murder someone who already knows it’s going to have a short life. It’s just part of the plan.

    Me: Makes sense.

    This entry is all Jason and Erik. I found it so heartwarming and timely just before Thanksgiving. Enjoy!

    Elisa!  Guess what!  I got an Erik manifestation I’ve not experienced before last night!

    Here’s the story. So, Erik and Robert and one of my Teachers has been helping me with an emotional issue I’d been having off and on for a while. (yea, right I know – another one) :) — and so it’s been working and so I emailed Robert, Erik and Jill, just saying thank you and how much I loved them and what not. That was yesterday.

    Also, I’ve got to tell you, And I am sure you know the feeling. I tend to be a needy baby when it comes to affection. Especially as I go through more and more spiritual stuff and remember things and experience the emotions of it all. I am constantly badgering Erik for Hugs of late. I was joking with Robert about that on the phone and Erik said, “Well you wouldn’t be you if it weren’t the case…”.  ha!  In fact, I’ve caught myself thinking, I don’t give a crap about visions, I want a hug. And what I mean by that is those energy warm buzz hugs he gives. *on a side note if you ever channel a higher level being, the feeling is like Erik hugs but all over and like your drunk on energy.  So I had that in mind when I thought hug…

    Well, like I said, I wrote that email to them and I was awfully emotional about it, because it was a big milestone in my life. Then I woke up at around 1:30am this morning thinking ‘oh, I should check my email’.  So I whip out my phone and sure enough shortly after I had gone to bed Robert, Erik and Jil had replied with their love and affection. Each had their own sweet little message for me. I was just super happy about that and fell back asleep.

    Well, then I suddenly woke up between 3 and 3:30 or so. The room was still. Then all of a sudden I felt like what I can only describe as arms going around my shoulders. But it felt like it came from out and down, the opposite direction I was laying in bed. I was facing the center of the bed. My left side exposed. The side Erik told me to face before. Anyway; The arms felt like they were outside of and under my sheets. No hands, just arms. And they moved my sheets and pressed against me. I mean there was pressure there, but it didn’t have weight to it. Hard to describe. It had mass and moved and moved stuff, but no weight. So these arms then wrapped me up in a hug about the shoulders and then slowly rocked me back and forth 2 times. I / my torso actually moved back to the left with the arms! It was sooo gentle. And it was just like if I was standing, someone came up behind me and put there arms around me in a bear hug and put their chin on my shoulder!  And at that moment woosh!-Goosh! there was this intense emotion of love.

    It was so amazing.

    Then from far back in the room I heard a little weird voice say in my mind, “I heard the house is haunted?”.
    And for a moment I was startled and scared that I was having another scary out of body experience.

    Then! Erik and at this point I KNEW the hug was him. Threw off the arms and gave this HUGE gawffing joyous laughter that just reverberated really loud in my head!

    And I found I wasn’t afraid any more!!!   I then proceeded to chase him in my minds eye until he tackled me and started tickling me. Jill watching on said, we love you!

    Then I fell back asleep happy.

    This morning when I woke up I wondered about that experience. And then I felt the two near me, and Erik said that weird little voice was my latent fear trying to manifest and we laughed it away together. Then,… I started mulling over whether or not to tell you. I mean. Cause if it wasn’t real, I don’t want you to go expecting some hug. I mean. That’s just mean. BUT. . Then Erik starts in… He said,   “It’s real, It’s real, It’s real… Tell MOM, Tell Robert, It was real! Tell mom to brush the lint out of her teeth cause it was me. Tell her cause I want my mom and I don’t want her to think it was a fucking dream!!!”

    At that point I was just practically dancing around the house with happy joy. I was tearing up and everything. No doubts only happy.

    So, there you have it.

    Hope you have a great Thanksgiving.
    On that note., Elisa, I just want to say how thankful I am for you. I really look up to you as an example on how to live life with purpose and your overall out look has really inspired me. Especially how you deal with hardship, and your work ethic. If I had this life to do all over again, I wish I could have had you as a parent. I can really feel that you would have loved me no matter what. I know that’s probably not fair to my own parents as they did the best they could under their own circumstances. But I just wanted to say thank you to you and Rune, and well everyone there for giving what they could. It enabled a chain reaction of changed lives. Not just me, but in other blog members I’ve talked to and in fact people around me.

    So, Well. um, Happy Thanksgiving. It’s the quiet still moments of the night that the para—not scratch that… That Spiri— no scratch that…. That Love comes knocking… :)

    Lots of love,

    Jason

    After you read this, you’ll never feel like a lazy slob for sleeping in!

    Channeling Transcript

    Me: Erik, are you aware of people who are sleeping coming over to visit in the afterlife? In other words, when people are sleeping in bed, can they travel to the afterlife so that they’re physical bodies are like in suspended animation or some sort of “rest period” during which their guides watch over them?

    Erik: Yeah, there is that, but it’s not like some “sleeping hospital.” It’s not like the soul body floats themselves into Heaven and they line up in little rows. It’s like—

    Jamie: How do you explain what you’re showing me, Erik?

    (Long pause)

    Erik: There are certain types of sleep where the soul is out of the body, like an out of body experience—

    Me: Uh huh.

    Erik: During that moment, the soul could be “conscious awake” or “conscious asleep.”

    Me: Okay.

    Erik: When it’s conscious asleep, it’s as if the soul floats right above the body.

    (Pause)

    Me: Um hm.

    Erik: But it has that moment of outward experience, which is very freeing. It’s a wonderful, healing experience to have—a break from being in the body.

    Me: Oh yeah.  Does only a part of the soul leave the body?

    Jamie: The image he shows me is almost like a double. Like if you were sleeping on your back, there would be double of you sleeping just a few inches above it.

    Me: Oh, okay!

    Jamie: Like double vision in a way.

    Me: Hmm, cool.

    Jamie: And what’s interesting is he shows me as the person moves on the bed, then the sol body moves above it. So it’s still mimicking how the body’s reacting, but it’s a sense of freedom.

    Me: Under what circumstances do they project part or all of their consciousness into the afterlife? Do they ever do that? Or do they every project their consciousness into other dimensions of any sort?

    Erik: Let me finish, Mom.

    Me: Oops, okay. My bad.

    Jamie and Erik both laugh.

    Erik: When they’re asleep like that, what we can do is download information.

    Me: Oh, okay.

    Erik: Yeah, we can get up next to them; we can heal their energetic body; we can put more information in it, like upload stuff, uh; we can alter a lot of shit in a positive way.

    Me: Wow.

    Erik: But we can’t screw around in a negative way.

    Me: Okay, that’s comforting.

    Erik: Yeah, it’s just not possible. That couldn’t happen if the being had negative intent.  No one can fuck you up like that while you’re asleep.

    Me: Alright.

    Erik: Call it a safety mechanism.

    Me: Oh, okay.

    Erik: But if that soul was “conscious awake” and out of the body, then that body can project into Heaven, the afterlife—whatever you wanna call it—across space and time.

    Me: Uh huh.

    Erik: Hell, there can be full-on conversational lessons, uh, you know, teachings. I’ve done a little bit of that, but not a lot.

    Me: Okay.

    (Long pause)

    Jamie (laughing): He—you still find that funny, Erik?—he still finds it funny when people come out of or wake up physically in their bodies like coming out of an out of body experience, where they kinda jerk into it.

    Me: Yeah, some call it a crash landing.

    Jamie: Yeah, he still thinks that’s funny.

    Me: Well, can a human being, the consciousness, leave and help others, uh, you know, the other way around from what you’ve said?

    Erik: Yes! Humans can willingly kinda sit back or lay down and leave their bodies—

    Me: Uh huh.

    Erik: –I have seen—

    Jamie: Erik, use different terms so I know what you mean, like just to clarify “alive” or “dead.”

    (Pause as she listens to Erik)

    Jamie (insistently): Use alive or dead!

    (Long pause)

    Jamie: Oh, okay. So he’s saying he has seen an alive person leave their body and help somebody who has just died–

    Me: Oh, okay! Wow!

    Jamie: –so a “dead soul.” And the “alive soul” is escorting the “dead soul” to Heaven, to Home.

    Me: Um hm.

    Erik: There are “alive” people on Earth who are just like the messengers. They do the work of escorting.

    Me: How fascinating. Do they have any other roles in that regard?

    (Pause)

    Me: Like, do they ever just go visit another, uh, like a deceased relative or anything? I mean, well of course I know they do that in lucid dreams, that’s right.

    Erik: They can, but an alive person can completely be invoked without “knowing.” They could be—You had this, Mom. You had this! You’re completely awake  and doing some routine thing like washing the dishes and all of a sudden you feel really, really tired.

    Me: Sure.

    Erik: And you’re just so tired, you have to lie down. It’s like there’s no two ways about it, you’re gonna to go to sleep. You just don’t know if you’re gonna sleep on the floor, the couch or the bed. So you go for it, and you lie down. Those intense moments of needing to sleep—

    Me: Yeah?

    Erik: We call it “sleep,” because that’s how it feels to us; that’s what our parents have said, like, “Oh, we have this feeling, and it’s called “sleepy,” but that’s not always the case. Sometimes it’s just feeling the need to leave the body so you can go escort or help someone else.

    Me: Oh!

    Erik: I mean, it could be cuz it’s the connection of a soul friend, a soul family, or somebody you promised or—you had made an agreement with them that you would be there to help them cross over.

    Me: So interesting! So are lucid dreams ones where we actually wake up while asleep in the other dimension, or—wait, I’m reading this reader’s question, and I’m not sure I understand the wording.

    Jamie (laughing): He says he understands it. He understands all the questions you’re gonna ask the second you put them on the list.

    Erik: Yes. Mom, that’s like if, um, okay, you’re asleep.

    Me: Okay.

    Erik: Your soul is out of the body.

    Me: Yeah.

    Erik: And, it starts to have an experience, and it becomes an awake consciousness link to your brain and your body. So the physical body is in the same dream state as the soul body. That’s lucid dreaming.

    Jamie: I like how he separates the two like that. He says the physical body ad the soul body in the same state awake.

    Me: Oh, I see!

    Jamie: Well, while in the same dream state.

    Me: As one reader says, “This actually puts a totally spin on which is the true reality—here or the afterlife. Do we wake up our soul to be in the afterlife, or do we wake up our bodies to be in the physical life? Maybe death is our soul waking up from a bad dream.”

    Erik (laughing): Bingo!

    Channeling Transcript
    Me: Okay, here’s another interesting one, Erik. One reader wants to know if someone, perhaps Jamie, Kim, Jeannie, me or someone else, could prove to skeptics that the afterlife is real, even applying for the Randi Foundation. I think the prize is around a million dollars or so. We could use that to fund the foundation we talk about.

    Jamie (laughing): Erik says that guy is an asshole!

    Me: Oh, really? I just assumed it was a girl, like a girl’s first name. He must be a skeptic, then.

    Jamie (continuing the laugh): I am so shocked! Have you met him, Erik? Have you, uh, what do you know?

    Erik: Here’s what I know. The guy is totally a skeptic. He’s using this in a way, uh, he’s trying to get answers about the spiritual afterlife to fit into a scientific equation.

    Me: Oh!

    Erik: So repeat the process, get the same response; repeat the process, get the same response.

    Me: Yeah, you can’t expect that from the spirit realm, huh?

    Erik: Thank you! That’s what I’m saying! He’s such an ass, because he knows it cannot be replicated, because each person is a different instrument.

    Me: Yes!

    Erik: But he’s totally alienating that kind of proof. Mom, there’s no way to win.

    Me: Well what about doing this: A being in the afterlife who is known to be dead appears in front of a huge audience for that purpose. He or she could materialize and say something like, “See, I’m still around!” Can that be done, Erik? Or perhaps it shouldn’t be done.

    Erik: Of course it can be done, and it’s been done in lots of places around the world.

    Me: Oh, really?

    Erik: Yeah, but what that Randi dude wants is the ability to record it and image it and then the next night, at eight o’clock, have it happen again like HBO or Showtime.

    Me: Oh, I see. Wow, that’s tough.

    Erik: And we just don’t a) function in that kind of time frame and b) care to entertain a jerk like him.

    Me: What about taking him out of the equation. What about doing this for everyone else? Would it be a positive or a negative for our society?

    Erik: Oh, it’d be a positive; that’s for damn sure. We’re going to be coming into more of that, because people are coming out of denser energy and becoming more, you know, fine tuned inside their brains, their bodies. Higher vibrations. So this kind of understanding is going to be common knowledge and common acceptance again like it was before a long, long time ago. So it can happen more easily.

    Me: Oh, good! That’d be so cool!

    Erik: Belief systems are required to raise vibrations, but at the same time, the belief system is what narrows your opportunities.

    Me: Oh, yeah.

    Jamie: And he makes this sort of box shape with his hands, like “shwoomp.”

    Erik: So an open belief system is best. And that’s where we’re headed as a country, as a world.

    Me: Oh, good. I hope so. Here’s another one. I don’t know anything about this, either. A reader wants to know if you’re familiar with the Suzy Smith Afterlife Code Experiment, Erik. Apparently this is another avenue for establishing proof. Everyone wants proof.

    Erik: Now, her deal is a little bit better. But still, it’s looking for repetition.

    Me: Okay.

    Erik: And repetition using different instruments. The fault part here is you’re using what you know, which is science, to explain something non-scientific.

    Me: Wait, there is some science behind spirituality, isn’t there, like quantum physics?

    Erik: Sure, but I’m talking about science in it’s current state. It’s not there yet. Ask any quantum physician—

    Jamie (laughing at her error in translation): uh, I mean physicist.

    Erik (teasingly): Get it together, Jamie!

    Jamie and I both laugh hard.

    Jamie: I stuttered on it! (Pause) Go back, Erik.

    Erik: Ask any quantum physicist to explain what quantum mechanics is; they can only touch the surface. They can’t give you a full explanation. They’re still learning. Give us about 5 or 6 more years, which is not a lot in the big scheme of things. We’re going to have more definition, more grasp, and people, the mass of the people, tend to wait until there’s acceptable knowledge before they allow themselves to consider it a reality.

    Me: Yeah, I can see that.

    Erik: That’s what’s gonna encourage this whole enlightenment movement, Mom.

    Me: So it’s not too far off. Awesome.

    I just heard that Skoshi will no longer be visiting the blog. Apparently her computer acts up every time she does, and she has to reboot. She spent all day trying to fix her laptop, has missed work, has had to take it in the the “computer doctor” etc. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there anyone out there that knows what might be happening? I’m a Mac user, and viruses are never a problem for me.

    I am heartbroken to lose part of our family. It’s like yet another death for me. I feel sad for her and sad for us, because she has always been such a pillar of strength and wisdom for us all. Please send thoughts of love her way. :-(
