Channeling Audrey Hepburn, Part Three

Posted in: Celebrities

Me: What were you here to teach?

Audrey: Strength. I could really sum it up to that one word.

Me: The strength of the individual to change the world?

Audrey: Yes, especially a woman.

Me: Yes, good. And you had so much strength.

(Pause)

Me: Can you tell us about a past life that most influenced your last one?

(Long pause as she talks to Jamie)

Audrey: I was a boy in Ireland. It was during the years of the Great Starvation.

Jamie: I vaguely remember this from history, but like they didn’t have anything to eat.

Me: Oh, yeah, like the potato famine? I can’t remember if that was in the early 1900s, but that’s okay. It’s not a history book, thank god!

Jamie laughs

Audrey: I was a little boy; I didn’t live long. I maybe lasted to be 1 or 12. I don’t remember. You stop counting. You stop having birthdays. You just, on many occasions, ate dirt—

Me: Oh gosh.

Audrey: —because you wanted something in your belly. You wanted food, and being young, you were the product of what the political society was trying to teach the adults.

Me: Can you elaborate?

Audrey: The adults were so beside themselves with the blight, that they were often away trying to find food, trying to create. The children were often left behind, a bit helpless.

Me: Aw.

Audrey: And a lot of us were abandoned by our parents.

Me: Aw. I guess because they couldn’t feed you.

Audrey: Right. And this could have been easily resolved by getting help from other nations; it was very long and tedious, and through that, I gave up. I remember not wanting to live; I remember stopping eating altogether. I didn’t want it any more.

Me (sadly): Yeah.

Audrey: And it was that act of giving up that encouraged me, as Audrey in the life we’re now discussing, to fight for my own nutritional rights and to fight for—

Jamie: Oh, I get it now!

Audrey: —all the other children’s rights as well.

Me: Yes, and to fight for other countries to pull together, because the other nations didn’t help Ireland. You did that, Audrey. You really pulled charitable support from different nations all over the world and encouraged them to respond to that calling. So yes, that was a very influential life for you.

Audrey: Absolutely.

Me: So, what was your proudest accomplishment? This is probably an easy question for you.

Audrey: I had many external proud moments—being nominated for awards, winning awards, recognition, marriage, children. But privately, my proudest accomplishment—

Jamie (giggling): She’s talking about her last marriage. So she was married more than once!

Audrey: My last husband—

(Pause as Jamie asks for clarification)

Jamie: She considered him a husband. It was the last person that she was with.

Audrey: I had finally met someone with whom I was completely honest without holding back.

Me: I vaguely recall that.

Audrey: It took me long enough in m life to find someone—

(Pause)

Me: Who you could open your heart to?

Audrey: Yes. We were married in our hearts, not formally, because we didn’t need to be.

Me: So after you crossed over and looked at your accomplishments from the perspective of the spiritual realm, which were you proudest of?

Audrey: I hold fast to that one.

Me: Okay, good.

Audrey: It was a personal achievement that I never thought I would find.

Me: Aw. Now, given your powerful perspective in the afterlife, do you have any messages or advice for humanity? Do you have anything else you’d like to share with the world?

(Long pause)

Jamie: She fixes her hair; she’s thinking. Erik asked her what she was doing, and she told him she was trying to put it into one sentence.

Audrey: What I would preach is that emotions from anyone—

Jamie (laughing): Erik’s interrupting!

Me (giggling): Of course!

Jamie: He was inquiring if that meant from animals as well!

Me: Aw!

Jamie: And she agrees that the emotional value from any living being— and she thanked Erik for helping her clarify that—visually may not appear to be much, but it IS what makes the largest impact in our life, and it IS what makes people change overnight.

Me: Oh, yeah. Well said.

Audrey: I beg that every human being cherish the personal strength of their own emotions.

Me: Yeah. What wonderful words. Erik, do you have anything else you’d like to ask Ms. Audrey?

Erik: No. I’ll walk her back.

Me: Okay. Thank you so much, Ms. Hepburn. I’m hoping your words here will continue to have a positive impact on the world.

Jamie giggles.

Me: Ah oh. What’s he doing now?

Jamie: He was doing that—oh darn, what was that musical. Um, Eliza Doolittle.

Me: Oh, My Fair Lady!

Jamie mimics Eliza Doolittle saying, “The rine in Spin falls minly on the pline.” (The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain.) He just blurted it out to her!

Jamie (laughing): It was so funny. It just came out of nowhere! Ay, the rine in spine! And she just laughs!

Me: Oh, Erik, you’re so funny. Jamie, what are we going to do with him?

Jamie (laughing harder): I don’t know!

Erik: That was a complement to her. I was proving that I knew who she was!

Me: There we go! I love that movie; I remember watching it together! Well, thank you so much, Ms. Hepburn. It’s been an honor.

Audrey: Thank you so much.

Jamie (giggling): She does this little curtsey.

Me: Aw. I can just see that.

Audrey: Now that I’m here, I work diligently helping countries find equality.

Me: Good!

Audrey: And the fight for the world, as a whole, to be able to export and import goods and food, to create a balance rather than a monopoly. This monopoly has to fail. We can no longer move forward like this.

Me: Can you describe what surroundings and thoughts you had after the light came to you and you were surrounded by your loved ones?

Audrey: Oh, there is a world here that is similar but yet very unfamiliar to what I knew on earth. The colors are magnificent; the emotions are magnificent. You have this feeling of organization, and yet you don’t see it because it’s effortless.

Me (chuckling): Good, because it takes me great effort to be organized! That’ll be a welcome change!

Jamie laughs.

Me: Do you think it was your destiny to die in the way that you did?

Audrey: I believe it was. In all fairness, my body was never really mine. It was the product of a war with a very poor nutritional environment.

Jamie: Ooo. Just the way that she says it—-

Me: Do you think that’s why you developed colon cancer?

Audrey: Yes.

Me: Okay, because from early on, the proper building materials weren’t there, or was it for spiritual reasons?

Audrey: The building materials weren’t there. I’m quite surprised knowing what I ate and what I did for the first ten years of my life how I was even able to survive.

Me: Oh my gosh.

Jamie (to Audrey): Wait, are you talking about poverty, like starvation?

Audrey: Yes.

Me: Hm. So, that actually explains a lot. You had to go through starvation and abject poverty yourself in order to stand up for and fully help the starving children and adults throughout the world in your humanitarian efforts.

Audrey: Yes. There was so much starvation in Holland at the time of the occupation.

Me: Okay. Mmm. Couldn’t you have just read the memo? Seriously? (My weak attempt at comic relief)

Audrey: It defined who I was so I could embrace it again.

Me: I hate that you had to suffer so much as a child. So, you spent part of your childhood in the Netherlands, then?

Audrey: Yes. My only regret is that I wasn’t a professional dancer. I adored dancing.

Jamie giggles.

Me: Well, you can dance all you want, now!

Audrey (giggling): Very well put, thank you.

Me: Can you tell us what your afterlife environment looks like now?

Audrey: I do have a place of rest, and I’ve duplicated the home that I first purchased for myself as a single woman. I adored that house. It wasn’t large at all.

Me: Okay.

Audrey: I find I rarely rest knowing that there is so much strife that is unspoken and unseen in the world. I often find myself at—

Jamie (to Audrey): What would you call that? Meetings? They look like, uh, political meetings. You know how they have those long tables where everybody has a mike?

Me: Oh, yeah.

Jamie: That’s the image she’s giving me.

Me: Oh, okay! So that’s what you do there, Audrey? That’s what you’re describing?

Audrey: Yes.

Me: Well, we need all the help we can get. And we’ll get there.

Audrey: We will. One day.

Me: But some of the people who are starving do so as part of a spiritual contract, right?

Audrey: Yes, in order to help us, as a whole, understand that we have to have compassion and equality for every living being.

Me: Okay, and not just for the personal aspect: “I need to experience starvation so I’ll understand abundance,” for instance?

Audrey: Yes, that’s correct.

Me: Okay, I see. Now, what insights did you gain when you passed into the spiritual realm?

Audrey: What I understood the most is that one voice is as loud as a chorus of voices.

Me: Mm.

Audrey: And this was something I often doubted when I was living and doing my work. So, I encourage individuals to do the smaller acts of kindness, of love, and stand up for what the world needs as a whole.

Me: Aw, Audrey, what a lovely woman you are!

Audrey: Thank you so much!

Me: What were you here to learn? Anything?

Audrey: I find I was mostly here to teach, but I would also conclude that my hardest lesson was the acceptance of my body.

Me: Okay.

Audrey: Maintaining health. Not the shape of it.

Me: Okay.

Audrey: I had disappointments in pregnancies and often wanted to have more children.

Jamie: Did she have children?

Me: I think so, yes.

Audrey: Yes, but my body was not able to handle pregnancies well.

Me: I wish I had had you over for Thanksgiving. I would have stuffed you all full of home cooking!

Audrey (chuckling): It wasn’t the quality of food that I ate. My body just wouldn’t process it properly.

Me: I know. I was just teasing. I completely understand. I’m just shooting for comic relief. Barely.

Jamie (laughing): She says she enjoys it.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: My daughter, Kristina, just posted the transcript for my channeling session with fashion designer celebrity, Alexander McQueen. She’s a bit nervous about how her blog members will accept it, because, well, they’re not the Channeling Erik Family, so if you’ll please give her comment support, I’d really appreciate it!

Channeling Audrey Hepburn, Part One

Posted in: After Death Communication, Celebrities, Channeling

Me: Okay, Erik, it’s your turn to pick! Let’s play Hollywood Squares!

Jamie and Erik laugh.

Jamie (to Erik): Who? Audrey Hepburn? Okay, then. Run get her.

Me: Oh, okay.

Erik disappears.

Jamie: Audrey Hepburn! She’s on the list?

Me: Yeah.

(Pause)

Jamie: Okay, she’s here.

Me: Oh, good! How does she look?

Jamie: She’s thin!

Me: She was very thin, I know that.

Jamie: I didn’t realize she was that thin. She shows up as being older. She’s very elegant. She’s wearing like a black dress; it’s kind of pinched at the waist, tea length, goes below the knee.

Me: Okay.

Audrey: Good morning.

Me: Good morning! Thank you for coming!

Audrey: How may I help you?

Me: Aw, you’re so sweet. We’d like to ask you some questions, if that’s okay. Erik, do you want to start off and ask the first question?

(Pause)

Jamie: He’s actually not asking her anything important. He said hello to her, and he’s thanking her for coming. She’s being very polite with him. Um, Erik is complementing her on her acting.

Audrey: Acting just happened to be the job I could do to allow me to go into what I was really concerned with in life.

Me: And what was that?

Jamie: She’s showing me visuals, like her as a goodwill ambassador.

Me: Oh yeah. Exactly. She was very involved in humanitarian endeavors.

Jamie: She’s still talking to Erik. She’s telling him how she traveled all over the world and did interviews and radio presentations and all kinds of promotions to help children, dying children, hunger.

Me: I remember that about her and felt such admiration for all that she did.

(Pause)

Me: So, Audrey, what kind of beliefs did you have about the afterlife?

Jamie listens for several seconds.

Jamie (to me): No wait a second! Is she English?

Me: Um, I don’t really know. She had kind of a British accent, so she must be.

Jamie: Good pronunciation! There’s something—it’s not an American kind of English, but it’s not like hardcore British English.

Me: Hm.

Audrey: In traveling the world, it allowed me to adapt my religious beliefs from my childhood into more of a spiritual belief: that God is seen in everything and everyone.

Jamie (to Audrey): Are you associated with one particular church or—

Audrey: No.

Me: Okay. So I suppose your spiritual beliefs didn’t change much after you crossed over?

Audrey: It didn’t, and I was very pleased with myself, without being able to find that bit of expansive magic within the idea of belief.

Me: Um hm.

Audrey: Faith is so intangible. For example, you may never hold it or grab it, but it certainly touches you, just like music.

Me: Oh! I love that thought. How beautiful!

Jamie: It is, isn’t it?

Audrey: I just felt so blessed to be able to see people die. I saw the hardships. I’ve seen things that I believe most people couldn’t endure. I was indeed blessed to be there in that moment in time when their souls passed from their bodies. It comforted me and helped me expand my knowledge of humanity and spirituality.

Jamie: She said she would draw about it. It inspired her to—You’re an artist?

Audrey (chuckling softly): In a lesser sense and in lesser words, yes.

Jamie laughs hard.

Jamie: I don’t think I can say it in lesser words!

Audrey giggles and places a hand over her heart.

Me: Aw! Well, what was your death like?

Audrey: I recall it being very painful. I had a terrible case of cancer.

Jamie: I love how she speaks! “I had a terrible case of cancer.”

(Jamie mimics her elegant diction and accent.)

Jamie: Oh, and she puts her hand over her abdomen as she says it.

Me: Yeah, she had colon cancer.

Jamie: Oh! Oh, I’m sorry!

Audrey: It wreaked havoc on my figure! And once I got past the pain, I remember—it’s quite like the feeling of someone putting on you a belt or a corset that is much too tight. You cannot catch your breath. And so your body starts to feel quite foreign, because you can’t make it do the things that you desire.

Me: Yeah.

Audrey: And then when someone pulls the corset off—ahhh.

(She inhales deeply and with a sense of relief.)

Audrey: The gasp of death; the pain is gone; the body is free. That is how my passing was.

Me: Oh!

Audrey: I didn’t wander off into the light. The light very much came to me. I felt the presence of my dear family. We had such hardships and lost so many of the people we loved when I was younger.

(Jamie listens for a while)

Jamie: The war? From the war?

(Pause)

Jamie: Huh. I was just sort of asking her what war, when? She’s talking about World War II.

Me: Gosh, I don’t know very much about her life. I’ve watched most of her movies, but I don’t know much about her personal life.

Jamie: She’s talking about Adolph Hitler, the Nazis. Is she German?

Me: I don’t know?

Jamie (to Audrey): Where are you from?

Audrey: I was born in Belgium.

Me: Oh, wow! That rings a bell!

Jamie: So Belgium is right next to Germany.

Me: Yep, pretty much in the middle of Europe.

Jamie (to Audrey): Wow, so that was your childhood during the war?

Audrey: Yes.

Me: Oh my goodness.

Audrey: And it was such a dream to be able to be reunited. It didn’t even concern me that I had left my body. I was just so pleased, so happy, full of tears to have the people I love the most around me.

Me: Awww.

Audrey: It was quite an unexpected reunion.

Me: How wonderful!

R.I.P. Whitney Houston

Posted in: Celebrities, Channeling, Michael Jackson

It truly brings me to tears to have to put someone so young and talented on Erik’s interview list. Whitney Houston, dead at the age of 48, had the voice of an angel, but I felt she was also a tortured soul. Like Michael Jackson, she was one of the unicorns that we, the public, slaughtered mercilessly.

Erik, please show her the ropes, and when she gets oriented enough, bring her forth for an interview. Meanwhile, I call upon the Channeling Erik family to send her love and healing.

Channeling John Belushi, Part Three

Posted in: Afterlife, Celebrities, Channeling, Jamie Butler

Congratulations Channeling Erik Family Members! We’re surpassed a million hits! Woo hoo! That’s a lot of clicks!

The small group channeling conference call went well. So, thanks Team Eri-Jam or Jam-ik or Jam-er. Hmm, we’ll have to come up with something good. I recorded the session, but for some reason, when I try to export to Quicktime through iMovie in order to get it into YouTube, the audio cuts out after 7 minutes or so. The file is too big to post directly the only way I know is to add images, create an iMovie project, export as a Quicktime movie and then share to YouTube. But no joy. Any tech geniuses out there with ideas on how to get it on the blog? The file is 105 MB. I know a lot of folks want to listen again to what their loved ones and/or Erik had to say, and I just don’t have the time and resources to burn and send CDs every two weeks to everyone.

And now, enjoy the last segment of John Belushi’s interview!

Me: John, what were you here to learn and teach?

John: I really think I was there to of course make people laugh, but also to teach them not to be like me, that I’ll be the extreme so that you can live vicariously through me and not make the same mistakes.

Me: Oh, interesting! What do you think you were here to learn?

(Pause)

Me: If anything!

John: Chaw! If anything? I was really here to absorb. I was more of a sponge than a human.

Me: So you were here to just experience life, to soak it all in?

John: Yeah, mark me down for that one.

Me: That’s almost like what you’re doing there in the afterlife—just kind of soaking it all in.

(Pause)

Me: So you’re still a sponge!

John: Yay!

Erik, Jamie and I: Yay!

Me: So is that right?

John: Yes.

Me: Okay. Now, what is your biggest regret?

John: That I couldn’t be happy sober.

Me: Aw. Yeah, that’s a big one, John.

John: Yes.

Me: Can you tell me about a past life that had the most impact on this last one?

John: Hmm. Seriously?

Jamie (to John): Yes, seriously. It’s a real question.

Me: Oh no.

Jamie (laughing hard): John, we’re being serious.

John: Okay, I’m being serious. I was a monkey.

Jamie, Erik and I laugh.

Me: A monkey? I love monkeys!

Jamie listens, then laughs.

Jamie (to John): Okay, yes. No, talk to me. I’m saying it.

John: It’s what you have to do, right?

Jamie (chuckling): Yeah, yeah yeah. It’s what I have to do.

Me: Oh, poor Jamie.

Jamie sighs and giggles at the same time.

Jamie: But I can’t tell if he’s really joking or if he’s being serious!

Me: He was like that sometimes, if I remember correctly.

Jamie: He’s driving me crazy!

Me: Oh no!

Jamie: He’s talking about this group of monkeys in Africa that would eat this fruit, this thing that would make them drunk. Maca fruit, Marsa fruit, Marceea fruit. Makella? I can’t make out what he’s saying.

Me (giggling): Is it bigger than a bread box? First syllable? Second syllable?

Jamie: Mar-mar-mar—Argh! Mar-oo-la?

Me: Maroola. We’ll just leave it at that.

John: Anyways, basically I was a mischievous asshole monkey who would just get drunk and pass out. That was my life. I think that influenced my life the most.

Me: Ya think?

Jamie and Erik laugh hard.

Me: Wow, I have never heard that before! That’s got to be a new one for the record books.

John: Thank you. I try.

Me: What was your proudest accomplishment while you were in the physical? What did you think it was from your perspective on Earth?

John: My proudest accomplishment—the fact that I actually got married.

Jamie: You did? I thought he was single!

Me: I don’t know.

John: Yeah, I got married, and I still can say I consider that my proudest accomplishment.

Me: Okay. That’s good!

John: A good achievement.

Me: Do you still watch over your wife? Do you visit her from time to time?

John: I don’t know if she wants me hanging around her much. You know, she’s old and stuff like that. I check in on her sometimes, but I think she’s had enough of me.

Me: Okay. From your newfound perspective, do you have any messages for humanity—anything else you’d like to share with the world?

(Long pause)

Jamie: Make it not sarcastic John!

John: That’s so difficult!

Me: I know!

John: Really, the message I’d like to give is “Of the seven sins, gluttony is the best to have.”

Me: Well, it’s definitely fun!

(Pause)

Me: And? Would you expound on that, please?

John: But do your best to avoid all seven.

Me: Okay. Erik, what would you like to ask Mr. Belushi?

(Pause)

Jamie: Um, they’re just chatting back and forth, talking about stuff.

Erik: What was your favorite thing to do?

John: Animal House.

Me: Oh yeah! I forgot about that one!

John: Because it was one of the first things I was recognized for, and also, in filming it, it was very creative in that they let me kind of do it on my own. It really wasn’t very scripted.

Me: Good, so a lot of improv, huh?

John: Yes.

Me: Okay. Thank you very much, John. I appreciate your time, and I think your words here will open some eyes and minds. It’ll probably open up some mouths to laugh as well!

John: You are very welcome. Thanks so much for having me today. Take care, Beautiful! Erik kind of let me know what was going on, and I just want you to know we’re all pumped about getting a chance to be heard.

Me: Well good. I’ll do my best to give you all a voice in a dignified and respectful way.

Tears dried, check. Wounds licked, check. Feelings mended, check. Laptop opened, check. Ready to rock and roll, check. Thanks for bearing with me, guys. Sometimes I guess I can be kind of a (as Erik would say) p#@%y, especially now that I’m off that wretched fat pad growing, track pad harassing antidepressant, Abilify. Yes, the Bloggies website is a bitch to navigate and even when you’re successful, half the time you don’t know if your vote went through, so by no means do I blame you, my babies. Plus, the universe is a wondrous and perfect thing that behaves in a way that is best for all of us, me included. So, we’ll see what unfolds. I just feel blessed to have been in the finalist last year. We’ll knock their socks off in the 2013 Bloggies and try for the Webbys, too!

That said, I hope you all vote for Kristina’s Pretty Shiny Sparkly in the MUCH simpler voting process. All it takes it clicking on two grey radio buttons on the lower left hand corner of her icon under best fashion blog and best designed blog. Click on this link and keep scrolling until you get to those two categories:

How ’bout now? Okay fine. Here’s part two of Mister Funny Guy, John Belushi:

Me: So, when you crossed into the afterlife, tell me what you saw and thought?

John: I really didn’t differentiate the two. My life on earth was very fairy tale-created. It was handmade and pampered. A lot of my days I lived high on something.

Me: Are you talking about being high on drugs or life?

John: Oh, on drugs.

Me: Okay, okay.

John: You know, I did the greatest show on earth, Saturday Night Live, and it was through that that I felt so invincible. And when you feel that invincible, it’s a damn scary thing. I had a few years when I was trying to do my own thing, and without that structure of being on Saturday Night Live, I just gently went off the edge. That’s when I had, you know, speed, cocaine, marijuana, Jack Daniels. Whatever I wanted to put in my body, I put in my body. I just felt invincible like I was never going to die. What really sucked is I did die and I didn’t know I died! How ironic is that shit? Here in Heaven, everything is wonderful; I’m visiting people that I know are dead, cuz I’ve always wanted to meet them—the rock stars of the ages, musicians and actors, and I really felt like I went from one Green Room to the next Green Room.

Me: Oh, how funny!

John: By the time I was done being entertained, I realized that was it; I wasn’t going back; it wasn’t some extended dream.

Me: And once you realized that—

John: My funeral was over; everything was done. It was over.

Me: What did you think at that point? Once you realized, “Wow, I’m dead,” what were your thoughts?

John: I thought, ‘Damn, somebody really saved my ass!’

Me: Saved you from yourself?

John: Yeah.

Me: Okay, once you knew you were in Heaven, what did your surroundings look like? Can you describe what you saw?

John: I never really had an idea of what Heaven should be like for me, and so I’m guessing my version of it just imitated what I was familiar with on earth. Grass, homes, different locations, but it definitely came with an emotional palette that I couldn’t have while living on earth.

Me: Mm. Tell me more about that.

God, I kind of sound like Sigmund Freud, don’t I? Next I’ll be asking him how he felt about his mutha.

John: It was very eye-opening, enlightening to realize that I was having these expansive emotions without trying to reach in and get them or try to snuff them out with a little bit of cocaine. It was just a pure feeling of, you know, not to sound like a wacko, but just to be loved.

Me: Aw.

John: Even the hardest of assholes that you look at—everybody is a bit of an M & M. Hard coated shell on the outside, soft chocolate on the inside.

Me: Oh, yeah. Was it your destiny to die when and how you did?

John: One hundred percent, yes.

Me: Why? Was it an exit point for you to learn something from that?

Jamie (giggling): He’s got that look like “Ha ha ha ha wouldn’t you like to know!”

John: Hell, yeah it was an exit point. You know, if I had not croaked then, it was just gonna be the next day or the next. I wasn’t going to stop what I was doing, and I was just doing more and more. That’s like the epitome of a mute person yelling. I was asking for death, but I wasn’t putting any words to it.

Me: Now, why? Were your spiritual contracts over? Why did you die so young? Was your death to teach someone something or to learn something?

John: You know, I think there’s a point where you only go so far by doing good and then you have to switch over and start doing bad. I really think I was reaching that point. So it was, “All right, you’ve had enough with “kick you over so everybody remembers you as the funny, innovative, forward-thinking crazy” rather than the drug addict asshole wife-beater, whatever I was going to turn into, because it wasn’t going to be good.

Me: Yeah.

John: I think you can see that, you know—

Jamie (giggling): I love how he does that snicker. Like he pauses, but sound still comes out like “eh eh eh eh” kind of like the French do.

Jamie, Erik and I laugh.

Jamie: He says they were filming a documentary on him, like almost until he died. It’s weird. He signed onto something and they were filming him.

John: Going back and being able to look at a consciously dying person, you can clearly see it was my time.

Me: Okay. Can you describe your afterlife now? What does it look like, and what do you do there?

John: I don’t know; I guess it symbolizes anything that I want and what was in my world when I was on earth.

Me: Do you have a life’s work over there?

John: Please, I like to say I don’t!

Jamie giggles.

Me: Okay, a life’s play, then? I mean, what do you do all day?

John: Ah, I like to do whatever I want.

Me: Which is?

John: Maybe it’s nothing and maybe it’s everything!

Me: Give me an example. What did you do yesterday?

John: That’s where you got me; what is yesterday?

Me: Oh yeah. I knew that was going to come! That pesky old time thing.

John (with a mock evil tone): Ha ha ha!

Erik and I laugh.

John: I’m just enjoying the whole of the consciousness of the wrapping wrapped up in everything.

Me (sounding confused): Okay. What insights did you gain once you knew you were in the afterlife, once you had that special perspective from the other side of the veil?

John: I learned that I was a loud motherfucker!

Jamie giggles in embarrassment.

Nikki tipped me off to this wonderful lady who will take Erik’s (and of course other’s) o’d t-shirts and makes them into cozy quilts. Imagine wrapping yourself up in that kind of love! And it looks reasonable too–between $150 to $175! Her telephone number is (636)225-1967. I’m hoping Rune gets the hint and gets one made up for my Channeling Erik sanctuary and if we have enough t-shirts, one for my downstairs sofa so I can wrap myself up in his smell and cry from time to time.

*********************

And now of Mr. Samurai, himself, John Belushi:

The more we got into the interview the more I found his answers indirect and confusing. He often didn’t answer the questions in a concise and direct way, but this is the best he could do. As I transcribed this, I wondered if drugs can alter the energy of the soul in an adverse way, although it didn’t seem to have an adverse effect on Chris Farley, Bob Marley and others. Robert? Jason? Anyone else have any ideas? This entry, he was pretty clear, but as the interview progresses, you’ll see what I mean.

Me: Well, Erik, who should we interview next, Jim Morrison, JFK, Jr. or John Belushi?

Erik: The one that’s most eager and easiest to get a hold of is John Belushi.

Me (chuckling): Oh, okay! Go fetch, Boy!

Jamie: Yeah, go get him, Erik!

(Pause)

Jamie: That’s funny; he sort of looks like Marlon Brando.

Me: I don’t remember.

Jamie: Not the shape of his body. Just his face.

Me: I don’t know. I can’t even picture him. Didn’t he do the Samurai skits on Saturday Night Live?

Erik: Yes, Mom! I can’t believe you forgot!

Jamie: He’s here. He’s not as tall as I expected him to be, but he’s solid built, kinda chubby.

Me: Yeah, he had some meat on his bones.

Jamie: And scruffy! Don’t you shave up there, John?

John: Who needs to? Who am I trying to impress?

Me: Yeah, really! Hello John!

John: Hello, beautiful!

Me: Aw, you’re so sweet! Okay, I’d like to ask you some questions; you probably know the drill. Can you tell us what you believed in regarding death and the afterlife before you died?

John: Oh, I was spoon fed what my parents thought was best. What child isn’t? Isn’t that the purpose of having kids, so you can have a few puppets around?

Jamie and I laugh.

Jamie: You didn’t have any children, did you?

John: No, I didn’t get around to it.

Jamie: He’s talking about being orthodox. What do you mean, orthodox? Were you Jewish?

Me: Well, it could be Greek, you know. There are all sorts of orthodox religions. It just means conventional or traditional. They just really stick to the tenets without liberal interpretation.

Jamie: Yeah, he said it was very strict. He’s talking about being eastern orthodox.

Me: Okay.

Jamie: And he said some crazy word that starts with an A. Sounded like a sneeze!

Me: Oh, he was probably an Ashkenazi Jew!

Jamie: Ooo, say that again?

Me: I don’t know if I’m even pronouncing it right. Ashkenazi?

Jamie: No, it sounds like it has more syllables than that.

Me: Ashkenazi-wazi? I give up!

Jamie laughs hard.

Jamie: Oh my god, he loves that! No, it’s like “automobile” and then something else.

John: It wasn’t the most loving place you wanted to find yourself. It’s no surprise that I came out with much more of a dark side than a bright side.

Me (with sympathy): Aw, yeah. You mean because of your religious upbringing?

John: Yes.

Me: Okay, so when you crossed over, how did those beliefs change?

John: I found that maybe humor was the way to really—

Jamie: He rubs his face and his hair when he talks.

John: I found that humor really was the way to celebrate life, and in celebrating life, you are celebrating God.

Me: Mm hm.

John: But I really found out that what I learned was a lot of bullshit.

Me: Ah oh!

(Pause)

Me: Okay, So what was your transition like for you? Was it peaceful, painful—

John: Hmm. Confusing. I really can’t compare peaceful or painful, because I really wasn’t raised in any other family. What my family was is what they were. They were survivors, and my dad always lived in survivor mode. It wasn’t really about loving or caring for your children; it was about teaching them how to survive.

Me: Oh, wow!

John: And when you end up in America, that natural instinct to survive is not as needed. It’s pampered out of you. But yet we didn’t get that nurturing that you see on TV with—

Jamie laughs at what he says before going on.

John: —the fucking Leave it to Beaver and things like that.

Jamie (to John): I always have to giggle when you guys cuss! I will grow out of it, I promise!

Me: Oh, no! Don’t grow up, Jamie!

Erik laughs.

Me: No, what I mean by transition is death. What was your death like?

John: Fireworks!

Me: Fireworks?

John: There was a lot of drugs! Racing heart! Lights in my eyes! It was fireworks!

Me: Okay. What went on in your mind as you were dying and right after you crossed over?

John: Yeah, yeah, I thought that was the greatest high I had ever had! How amazing! I didn’t realize I had gone past the point of no return.

Me: Oh, I can see that happening.

John: I was still going! God, it just kept getting better and better, and then I realized I wasn’t coming off of it. Then I realized I didn’t have my body anymore, and I realized how much I had just been fucked.

Channeling Bob Marley, Part Four

Posted in: Celebrities, Channeling, IADC, Jamie Butler, Past Life Regression, Past lives, Psychic medium

Here’s the final piece of Mr. Marley’s interview.

Me: Can you talk about a past life that may have influenced your last one? These are always fun!

Jamie: They are, aren’t they?

Bob: Der are so many!

(Pause as he considers the question)

Bob: I liked being an old mon.

Jamie (to Bob): Asia? So, where in Asia? (pause) Chinese. You’re trying to tell me you’re a Chinese old man?

Jamie laughs.

Jamie: That was his visual.

Bob: I was an old Chinese mon. I made wooden instruments. I carved dem.

Me: Uh huh.

Bob: And when you would strike de different part of de wooden box or—

Jamie; He’s showing me them to be long and thin, and when you hit or tap different parts of the box or the tongues that are carved into the box, it would make sounds.

Me: Hm!

Jamie: It’s very , um, I mean, I can see it so clearly.

Me; I can see it too. Cool.

Bob: I remember being too old dat I couldn’t carve any more. So, I would sit with my two sons, and we would talk about de movement of de grain in de wood. If you wanted de wood to work with you and your design dat you see—it’s not about controlling de wood and cutting and carving. It’s about following de grain of de wood and allowing de sound de wood wants to make to come up. You’ll always get de sound dat you wish. You use a piece of wood, and sometimes der were plenty of mistakes and a lot of time was spent. My life was dat way; it was very understated. I spent most of my time sitting and standing and working with tools. I never had de chance to perform. Dat wasn’t what I was known for. I was seen as de—

Me: The craftsman?

Bob: Yes. And dis led me to have a deep desire to learn to play and to teach to other people what de wood had taught me—what de wood had taught my fingers and my ears. And dat lesson was dat you can’t control nature or use design as an ultimate plan. You must be open from de heart and see with your fingers to be able to know what can be given to you. And den, from der, you create what you want. You create from de heart, de soul.

Me: Wow. Very profound!

Bob: Force is never needed in life.

Me: Yeah, go with the flow! Exactly.

Bob: I cherished dat lifetime. Very understated. Very simple.

Me: Yeah. So, you are such a wise man. Do you have any messages or advice for humanity? Then, I’ll give the mike to Erik!

Bob: I’ve said it before: You must live life with your heart and not with your eyes.

Me: Okay. Well, you can’t top that! Erik, any questions?

Erik: Yeah. Why?

Bob (turning to Erik): Your eyes are your biggest liars; dey will only see what dey know to see, what dey want to see, and dey will manipulate what’s around you.

Me: Ah!

Bob: Sometimes, out of de goodness of itself, it will not give you de true perspective of what is around you. Know dat you must move forward with your heart.

Me; Yes, but how do we do that?

Bob (laughing really hard): It’s not about everybody going blind!

We all laugh.

Bob: But it is about everybody closing der eyes and opening der hearts.

Me: And listening to their intuition, being guided by their intuition? Is that what you’re saying?

Bob: Yes, it’s about knowing how you feel. And if you cannot give love to a person or a situation, it is your responsibility to be authentic to yourself to know why you can’t. Dat’s de lesson inside of you dat you do not like! Dat’s de lesson dat you often refuse to do. You need to know why.

Me: Hmm. And the lessons from Bob Marley go on. Well, thank you, Bob, for coming back and letting me interview you again! Consider it your curtain call, your encore.

Bob (laughing): You’re very good people, good people.

Me: Aw, you’re good people, too, as we say here in Texas. Bye!

Bob: Peace.

Soon, Jamie will post the link for the hotel reservations for the Channeling Erik event in Austin. She and I are cooking up some big surprises for you guys! We also hope to have two people discuss and perhaps demonstrate past life regression and IADC (induced afterlife communication)aside from the already full agenda. So, it should be a very fulfilling three day event. We can only accommodate 50 attendees and the deadline will be three days before March 2nd so be sure to sign up as soon as you can. Please let us know via a comment if you you’d like to share a room with someone! It’s a good way to save on costs and make a new friend for life.

Also, Jamie will soon be announcing the next of her phone conferences. She’s decided to host them every two weeks. She wants to keep them small and short: no more than 10 to 13 people, one hour long, but every two weeks. Should be fun!

Love you all! Happy jammin’ this weekend!

Channeling Bob Marley, Part Three

Posted in: Afterlife, Celebrities, Channeling, Death

Great news, everyone. Jamie has agreed to channel Erik every two weeks for one hour phone sessions. She wants to keep the groups to a maximum of 10 so that everyone gets a chance to ask questions and we’ll assign and refer to each person by number rather than name so that the recording can be posted. That way, everyone can learn from the answers to those questions. She requests that no guides be brought forth because that drains her energy considerably. Erik is quite easy to channel, so sure has no problem with that, but some guides can be very taking. SHe also has no problem channeling deceased, because Erik helps her with that as well.

Last but not least, I received a bid for a Channeling Erik smart phone app. It will contain functions that will not be available in the web version, but is costly for me to construct. How important would this be to you and would any of you be willing to pay 1 to 5 bucks to help defray my costs? Is that too tacky to ask? Know that I don’t make any money from Channeling Erik and in fact spend over a thousand a month, but I consider that Erik’s college tuition, room and board, wedding, etc. (hee hee).

Here’s the third part of our interview with the great Bob Marley!

Me: What insights did you gain once you crossed over and had that broader perspective as a free soul in Heaven?

Jamie: He just smiles so big at me! You know, his face isn’t really shaven, but it’s not like a full beard or anything. Kinda scraggly. When he smiles, you see a full set of teeth.

Bob (talking through his smile): I was just thinking about dis de other day!

Me: Oh!

Jamie giggles.

Bob: My focus and my life was more for community, for unity—to pull people together— to learn to live with each other. I wanted it so bad dat I created my family. My family is large. I have many children with different mothers—

Jamie (to Bob): What is that word?

(Pause)

Jamie (giggling): Use a different word, because I don’t know it.

Jamie (to me) Probably some Rasta word! It means like wonderful or delicious.

Bob: It’s delicious to be in love. So, I found love with so many women and created families with dem and children. I felt dis was a calling for me. And what I recognized here where I am—blessed to be here—I focused so much on community dat I unknowingly didn’t focus on de individual enough. I missed knowing more about my children as dey grew, because I saw dem as part of a whole instead of as an individual.

Me: Fascinating. What do you think you were here to learn?

Bob: I was here to learn how to rise a nation—to motivate, to speak from de heart and belly of de soul and not from de eyes and de mouth.

Me: And that is a perfect segue into the next question: what were you here to teach? That must be exactly what you were hear to teach, right?

Bob: Yes. I was here to teach de people to live from de heart.

Me: Any regrets?

Bob: Dat goes back to my children and seeing dem as individuals.

Me: Okay. What was your proudest—

Bob (laughing): And because I died so young, not being able to fall in love with more women!

Me: Oh, boy! What a womanizer! You have plenty of women over there, I’m sure! Right?

Bob: Oh, yes! Love is everywhere!

Me: Now, while you were in the physical, what did you feel was your proudest accomplishment.

Bob: Every song that went on a record.

Me: Good! And now that you’re in heaven, do you still consider that your highest achievement?

Jamie: Um, he’s kind of tugging at his black headband with his fingers.

Me: Okay.

Jamie: He adjusts his hair a lot!

Bob: Looking back with dis new perspective, I can see my proudest accomplishment is de changes people made when dey listened to my music. When I was on earth, my proudest accomplishment was creating de music. Now, as an observer, I can see de reaction to my music. (Pause for effect) Now DAT is my proudest accomplishment!

Me: Ah, of course!

Channeling Bob Marley, Part Two

Posted in: Afterlife, Cancer Cure, Celebrities, Channeling, Death, God, Heaven, Love

Here’s part two of the great Mr. Marley!:

Me: What was your transition like for you?

Jamie: He takes a deep breath, then kind of squints his eyes. He moves his hair back. Funky hair! (She giggles.)

Bob: My transition was a blessing. It pulled me away from my music, which nurtured me while I was alive. It was my time; it was my contract; I knew. I knew I would not live trough what I was going trough.

Me: Yeah. Did you suffer a great deal?

Jamie: Weird kind of question.

Bob: It took me a long time to let go and pass away.

Me: You had skin cancer, didn’t you? Melanoma?

Bob: That’s right. And yes I did suffer, but mostly it’s dat I had a hard time letting go. It went to my lungs, my brain, so der was pain.

Me: So, when you transitioned, tell me what you saw and what thoughts you had once you realized you had passed on.

Bob: I rejoiced! I called God to come to my side! I called everyone I knew to come to my side.

Jamie: He sounds like he was very much in control!

Me: Yeah!

Bob: We sang; we embraced; I knew my pain was over.

Jamie: He’s saying he had a short life.

(Pause)

Jamie (to Bob): How old were you?

(Pause)

Jamie: Thirty-Six! Really? I thought you were older than that!

Me: Aw. Can you describe what you saw when you first crossed over?

Bob: I saw light. I think what resonated mostly with me is dat I heard light and I saw music.

Me: You probably thought that was one hell of a trip!

Bob (chuckling): I really tot dis was de nicest way to go.

Me: Yeah. Now, was it your destiny to die when and how you did? You were awfully young.

Bob: Yes.

Me: Why is that? Why did you have to die the way you did and so young.

Bob: God blessed me with de chance to heal myself if I would pay attention to myself and give up de stage. If I would give up de people, and serve myself, then I would live, but dis is not something I was willing to do. I know it was de test and I was de sacrifice. I did not give it up, so I was very comfortable knowing dis was de end.

Me: Okay. Why cancer?

Bob: I don’t know why cancer. Maybe you should ask de Mon.

Me (laughing): I’ll get right on it, sir.

Jamie and I giggle.

Me: Well, can you describe your afterlife right now—the one you’re in? And what all do you do there?

Jamie (laughing hard): God I just wanna imitate him!!

Bob: It is beautiful, mon, beautiful.

Jamie giggles.

Me: That’s good, Jamie! Keep it rolling.

Jamie (giggling): I keep feeling like it might offend him if I keep imitating him. But you just want to do it so bad! He talks about the beautiful buildings and the colors that rest on them.

Bob: De colors of gold, de embrace dat your heart feels when you’re in dis place. Dis is truly de, heaven among heavens and earth is truly de hell among hells.

Me: Tell me about it! What do you do there, Bob?

Bob: I help what little light shines on earth shine bigger—mostly through music and inspiration.

Me: So, you are a muse working with other musicians?

Bob: Yes.
