Phone Conference Call 5/3/12

Posted in: Channeling

The small group channeling conference call held by Jamie and Erik is probably the most economic way of addressing questions, many of them life changing:. You can ask questions related to health, spiritual mission, past lives and more. You can also have Erik bring forth deceased relatives and friends. Quite amazing. I really suggest you reserve a spot, although they do tend to fill up quickly. You can do so by visiting this link on Jamie’s website: https://withloveandlight.com/shop/category/personal-growth/. The next call is 5/24.

I urge you to listen to this conference call which took place on May 3rd before you reserve a spot so you can determine whether it’s right for you. If you click on the following link it will download to your desktop: http://www.mediafire.com/?setvba54lbbbts5 Be sure you give it time to download. It seems to take a while for some reason.

Also, my daughter’s wedding is coming up on Saturday the 12th. Because the days before that date are beyond hectic, I won’t be able to post anything from 5/9 to 5/13. That’ll also give the newcomers a chance to catch up as they go through the archives! Hope that’s okay.

Much love to you all!

Channeling Quentin Crisp, Part Three

Posted in: Celebrities, Channeling

Enjoy the final part of the wisdom of Mr. Crisp.

Me: Now, back to work. Do you have any messages or advice for us, Quentin?

Jamie: Oh, here it is. Are you ready?

Me: Ready as I’ll every be.

Quentin: Gay, gay, gay. Bi, bi, bi. Lesbian, lesbian, lesbian. Transsexual, transsexual, transsexual.

Me: Embrace all sorts of love?

Quentin: We’re all stuck in a human body.

Jamie: He says it so flippantly.

Me: You’re saying love is love is love?

Quentin: Love is love is love.

Me: Okay. Erik, do you have any questions to ask Mr. Crisp?

Erik: Yeah. Do you have any regrets?

Quentin: Son, I have none. Anything that I had before has clearly been beaten out of me.

Jamie: Oh, I think he means physically. Being beaten.

Me (horrified): Physically beaten!

Jamie: It’s not metaphorically.

Me: Oh, no! You were beaten, Quentin?

Quentin: My love, on several occasions.

Me: Oh, I’m so sorry.

Quentin: Well, we should feel sorry for the ones who felt they had to. They used brute instead of understanding.

Me: Oh, gosh. I am so sorry. I wish I had been there to defend you.

Quentin: Thank you for the chivalrous attempt, but I think that you’re too small.

Me: Maybe, but what I lack in brute strength I make up for in passion so I’d at least give them a run for their money.

Quentin: Yes, in passion and in voice.

Me: Yeah. I would scream and nag them to a bloody pulp.

Quentin: You can definitely put pen to paper and create a lot of blood and tears.

Me: Oh yes. For sure.

Jamie: Oh, wow. What a comment.

Me: So Quentin, do you feel like you accomplished all that you came here to do?

Quentin: Yes, and I came here to accomplish all that I came here not to do.

Me: Good! Very good! Well, thank you so much, Mr. Crisp.

Quentin: Thank you, my love.

Me: This has been such a wonderful interview.

Jamie: Oh, he has—oh, I don’t know what they’re called—lace around the edge of the sleeve.

Me: Oh, yes.

Jamie: Isn’t there a name for that?

Me: I don’t know. Quentin, is there a name for that?

Quentin: Fashion!

Jamie and I laugh!

Me: Awesome.

Jamie: Oh, he’s walking away.

Me: Bye!

Jamie: Bye!

Jamie continues to laugh.

Me: A grand exit, of course!

Jamie: That was awesome.

You MUST watch this YouTube to fully understand the man behind the interview.

Channeling Quentin Crisp, Part Two

Posted in: Celebrities, Channeling

As you will soon see, I had more fun interviewing Quentin Crisp than jut about any other celebrity. George Carlin was a close second though.

Me: And did you gather a lot of insight as you wrote?

Quentin: I did! I did! And it was very insightful, though it was never a philosophy or psych major. I find that in the end of my life, I was really self-taught. This is what fascinated me so much about my entire life.

Me: You can draw a lot of insight that comes from self-reflection that comes from writing, can’t you?

Quentin: Yes.

Me: I find that in my own writing. Can you tell us a little about a life that influenced the one as Quentin Crisp?

Quentin: A previous life that influenced my last one?

Me: Yes.

Jamie: He shows me a female Russian female ballerina. The costumes, the jewels, you know, sewn into the fabric.

Me: Yes.

Jamie: Very elaborate, so obviously very well funded. Money is definitely behind it. He is a little grown woman. Very, very petite.

Quentin: In that life, as soon as I was born, I knew that I was meant to be a dancer. I had such drive and such passion. I was very pleased with myself with that life—very satisfied. After I couldn’t dance anymore, I got very ill and died—within 6 to 8 moths after not being able to dance anymore. My life was over. I came in that life to have this purpose, and I now you’re curious to know why, but when I came into this life I had no drive about who I was and what I was going to do. I very much feel that the majority of my life was spent lost and with loose ends. It wasn’t until the end of my life that I realized that that was what I had craved so much—to be lost and full of loose ends. It actually indeed was a direction for me.

Me: What was a direction for you? Can you clarify “being lost”?

Quentin: Yes.

Me: That sounds like an oxymoron. What purpose did that serve?

Quentin: Freedom.

Me: Ah! Freedom from purpose.

Quentin: Freedom from purpose and freedom to get into whatever sticky situation that sought me or that I sought after.

Me: So that uncertainty gave you the gift of opportunity that blinders toward purpose would have denied you.

Quentin: Freedom—

Jamie (giggling): I wish I could mimic him! He’s so elaborate! So awesome! He’s got—he looks, um—oh, I hope I’m not going to insult him—it looks like he has costume makeup on.

Me: Um hm

Jamie: Okay. Like a performance makeup, though he’s not dressed like he’s performing anything.

Jamie and I giggle.

Me: And so that freedom from purpose gave you what?

Quentin: My life.

Me: Yeah.

Quentin: It gave me the opportunity to be the artist, the writer, the socialist, the storyteller—everything.

Me: Did it release a lot of creativity in you?

Quentin: It released more than that.

Jamie (giggling): I think he’s being a little nasty.

Me: Huh?

Jamie (giggling with obvious embarrassment): I think he’s being a little nasty, because Erik is giving me this look like I didn’t catch on.

Me: Uh oh! Quentin! What are we going to do with you!

Quentin: Anything you want!

Jamie and I belly laugh!

Jamie (sniffing back tears): Oh man, I like him!

Me: Me too!

Jamie: He’s like just enough of uncomfortable, you know.

Me: Can we keep you, Quentin?

Quentin: Please. Maybe you need a new editor.

Me: You silly!

Just a reminder for the newcomers to the CE family: Please friend Erik and me on Facebook! Also, join our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ChannelingErik/

Channeling Quentin Crisp, Part One

Posted in: Celebrities, Channeling, Gays in Heaven, Gays in the afterlife, Homosexuality

Although the name sounded familiar, I never really knew much about Mr. Crisp. Now that I’ve interviewed him, I feel like I missed out over the years, because he truly is a sweet man and a insightful philosopher. When he showed up at the Jesus interview sitting as a quiet observer on the couch, I had to promise him that he’d get his turn at the mike. One of the best promises I’ve ever made. I hope you agree.

Me: Let’s pick our next celebrity, Erik.

Erik: Who do wanna go with?

Me: Well, we ignored Quentin Crisp when he waltzed in on the Jesus interview so maybe we should call him in.

Jamie: Oh, is that the one with the—

Me: –with the big hat and makeup and stuff, yeah. You think you could get him, Sweetie?

Erik: Absolutely. That’s not a problem!

Me: Yeah, I bet not! He’s such a ham.

Erik disappears for only a few moments and returns with Mr. Crisp. He must have been waiting anxiously in the wings!

Jamie (giggling): Oh, um, hello! Oh, so he’s British, that’s right.

Me Hi Quentin!

Quentin: Hello, my fair lady!

Me: We’re going to ask a few questions of you.

Jamie: He just pointed at you and asked, “Is that all?”

Jamie giggles.

Me: Yes, but it’s an honor to meet you again. How did you enjoy the Jesus interview?

Quentin: Oh, just as lovely as I thought it would be. It’s always nice to see a man in a dress who doesn’t wear stockings.

Jamie and I laugh.

Me: Quentin you crack me up! Now, the first question I’d like to ask you is this: What was your spiritual mission while you were here on Earth this last lifetime as Quentin Crisp including what you were here to learn and to teach?

Quentin: My spiritual mission obviously had to be the value of love.

Me: Oh! That’s a noble mission!

Quentin: Especially in my day and age. There was a lot of war about me everywhere I went. I tried my best to fit in and be a part of society, but no one would have me for who I was. So, when I felt like no one would have me, I decided it would be the best thing to just remain exactly who I was.

Me (sympathetically): Mmm.

Jamie: He’s so spot on and on target.

Quentin: What was I here to learn? I really believe I was here to learn that there’s pain in people and that people are ugly and that we should not, by any means, measure who they are by their level of pain, because it’s just a mask.

Me (sadly): Yeah.

Quentin: There have been many people in my life who shunned me to begin with, but then after, I’m sure, observing me from afar, could understand that who I was was exactly who I meant to be, and then they could accept me. Then it was my greater spiritual understanding that I was to accept them—

Erik (butting in):–oh, rather than ticking them off, because they were dicks to you begin with?

I chuckle at his typical candor.

Quentin: Precisely. I don’t feel that I was here to teach much though I would have rather loved being the center of attention.

Me (giggling): So I noticed!

Quentin: I never set out to be the shock factor of the century. All I did was set out to be me. So, maybe I was teaching myself not to obey the rules but to obey inner rules—inner spirituality.

Jamie: He likes that. (in a dramatic hushed voice) “inner spirituality!”

Me: Now, did you come to these understandings before you passed?

Jamie: Oh, ho ho! He’s laughing! No!

Jamie giggles hard.

Quentin: Maybe in my older years after I had a chance to put some words on paper.

Jamie (to Quentin): Oh, like write a book?)

Jamie (to me): He wrote a book!

Numerology

Posted in: Channeling, Numerology

Just a reminder: For those of you who have signed up for the phone channeling session tomorrow, you should have received an email with instructions, the telephone number and access code. Let me know if you haven’t! Also, thanks to all of you for all of the grief-related advice and words of comfort. I’ve started to put into play many of the things I learned from you and it seems to be helping! Now, Erik explains (as only Erik can do) how numerology plays a part in our lives.

Me: Does numerology play a part in our lives?

Erik: If you understand them and know how to read them, then hell yes.

Me: Okay.

Erik: But most people throw it out like it’s some sort of child’s game.

Me: But is it true? Is there something to it?

Erik: Numerology has a lot of value to it, but I’ll tell you what. Our language and how we communicate as humans in ENGLISH not numbers—

Jamie (to Erik): Don’t do that!

Jamie (to me): He’s talking like we’re dumb! “Our language is eeennngggliish.”

Erik: Yeah, so we’re not going to communicate in the form of numbers, cuz you’re not going to understand it. Where’s the clarity in it unless you know numerology. If they know numerology and they can pick up the signs, then yeah, we can drop off those signs: on a clock, a phone, a billboard, a license plate. But to the mass majority, it’s just gonna mean shit.

Me: Well, what about numerology based on your name? Is that predetermined? So we decide on our names based on what’s going to make sense in those numerology calculations?

Erik: If I recall right, it was my parents who decided on my name!

Me: Oh, I don’t know. You probably had a lot to do with it. Or maybe we did knowing that on a subconscious level, um, maybe it’s based in part on math. Maybe we’re mathematical beings of some sort too—besides being emotional beings. In other words, the set numerology of the names and all that kind of stuff.

Erik: You can boil it down also to the numerology of the birthdate. What about all those people who were screwed because they went and got a caesarean? That isn’t your natural birthday, but your parents decided, “This is when you’re gonna be born. This is when you’re gonna take your first breath, and therefore this is what your astrological sign and everything is going to be based on.” That’s a little screwy. Astrologers need to ask, “Were you cesarean? When was your due date.” That way they can compare the cesarean date to the due date, cuz often it can be weeks different.

Me: Yeah, I guess even one day can make a huge difference. Some babies aren’t even born in a natural way on their due date for whatever reason.

Erik: What about timing: morning, noon or night. Those tentacles during pregnancy hit the baby, and it triggers them to actually behave in a certain pattern during the day.

Me: Yeah. So, why do we have numerology?

Erik: When it’s done like a path numerology where it’s not just based on your name but on your birth date and time, it can be a huge insight into who you are. It helps define you.

Me: So, our name and birth date are predetermined by whomever, and with that there’s a reconciliation with whatever life path you and others decided between lives?

Erik: Yeah and I would enjoy it, but not write it in stone.

Me: Okay. I guess because of free will.

Erik: Yeah, plus your name changes throughout life like when you get married.

The End of the World as We Know It!

Posted in: Channeling, Multiple dimensions, Parallel Dimensions, Reincarnation

Don’t let the title scare you. I found this question, posed by Tony, fascinating.

Me: Here’s a question from blog member, Tony: Seeing as how this earth will some day no longer exist, what will become of us in the afterlife. Do or will we reincarnate to other planets or worlds? In other words, what ties do we have to the planet Earth?

Erik (yelling and laughing at the same time): We already reincarnate on other planets and dimensions. Just remind him of that.

Me: Okay.

Erik: And tell him we’re not earthbound spirits. We’re multi-dimensional beings that can survive on other planets and in other places.

Me: So, what kind of ties do we have to planet Earth? Is there something special about it compared to other planets? Is there something unique about it? I guess each planet can have something unique about it, but what makes the earthly plane so unique for us?

Erik: Well, it just sustains the human life form. It’s like asking why a snowy mountain so special to skiing?

Me: Okay. So, being in the human body is important to our spirit because why? Does it better allow us to play our roles—to be in costume to play our roles?

Erik: To play our roles, to learn the definition of love, to feel the extremes of—

Jamie (to Erik): I know, I know.

Erik: —pain and suffering.

Me: So, we couldn’t just do that as discarnate spirits on Earth, I guess.

Erik: Right.

Me: Interesting. Why not?

Erik: That vibrational energy doesn’t exist, doesn’t grow.

Me: Oh, I see. So, you have to have that lower vibrational energy in order experience that duality.

Erik: Yep.

Remember when I asked everyone to write something about what Erik means to us? I’d like to continue to share this from time to time. Here’s a lovely tribute from Mommazee. I can just see Erik selling with pride. Wait, as I type this, I actually feel goosebumps on my left calf, so yes, that’s Erik saying,”Thank you, Mommazee!” Aw!! Wow, those goosebumps continue to get stronger! He must really be tickled pink!

Elisa,

First of all, I’d like to say thank you for all that you do. You give up so much of your own time and money and energy, to change people’s lives for the better, and the world too!

About Erik,

I’m not sure when it was exactly that I came upon your blog, it was by accident. I think it was September/October of 2011. It occurred right after my son told me he was seeing purple orbs in his room at night, and I had been searching online for what it could be. I had seen some things about it being spirits, then I got into the afterlife stuff, and eventually found your blog when another celebrity interview on thestir.cafemom.com lead me to your blog (someone commented that you do better celebrity channeling).

I had been heavy into this church called the Church Of God (World Mission Society, Christ Ahn Sahnghong is their Jesus)–I have asked you earlier to add him to your list) since early 2011, and after reading here and there about the afterlife and spirits, I was feeling pretty conflicted. I always had this doubt in my heart that this religion could not possibly be true, nor could any of them, it just never sat right with me, in my heart. They told me that whoever is not saved, will go to hell, and the Rapture is coming soon because we are in the End Times. I always wondered in my head how ALL these people were going to hell, even good people. How could God be so unfair? I worried for all my family and friends. It was truly depressing, and I didn’t want to believe it. I started to withdraw myself and family from them, because I started to see that it was kind of cult-ish, in that the people there were so devoted, they spent their entire lives there when they were not at work, on a daily basis. I wanted to have a life, but they were making me feel bad about it.

Anyway, this is around the time Erik came into my life and showed me the truth! I remember after finding out through your blog, how it felt–total shock, amazement, and awe…and just KNOWING. Erik must have been so happy to see the light go off in my head, and making fun of me, all at the same time, because it kind of freaked me out that we are never alone, and that he/any spirit could be in the room with me at any given time and they could hear my thoughts! I had read about the pranks and it terrified me that it could happen to me at night (I am 99% sure Erik pranked me by twisting my curtains and tucking them behind the TV stand, thank God he did it during the day while I was not home!). Every night I spent so much time thinking about it all before bed, and had crazy dreams during this time. I do believe that a few times, I had some contact with spirit (I remember seeing a purple orb myself, which contained Jesus, in my dream, but when I opened my eyes, it was still there and I watched it move across the room). I read the blog from the beginning and took it all in, and started reading other websites, blogs and books to do more research. It was a very profound time in my life that I will never forget!

From then, I started to feel like part of the CE family, and I noticed that I talk to Erik like he’s right next to me, quite often, without even realizing it at first! I always feel like I’m being watched, and I’m never alone, now that I know we have guides LOL I see life totally different now that I know the truth, and it’s so comforting to know there is an afterlife and that nobody really dies. This is huge for me, because my only fear in life was death of a loved one, as I have yet to experience that. I’ve been so fortunate to have my loved ones stay with me here so far. I thank Erik for giving me clarity, and the realization of my gift for being open minded, and able to distance myself emotionally from everything and see things for what they truly are. I now know that all of my life experiences have led me to be this way for a reason, so that when the truth came along, I would see it (I was not raised religiously, and was exposed to Islam and Christianity only once I was old enough to think for myself). I’ve always felt the connection to God, I knew there was more, and I knew that God sees me for who I am and doesn’t judge me. I’m not sure how I knew this, but it was always there. I’m thankful that I was open enough to delve into this afterlife business and learn more, and that I was not a skeptic. I would like to one day be able to channel and communicate freely with spirit, but I feel that just knowing what I know is enough for me right now. He has taught us all so much about the nature of the human experience and the afterlife, and how we’re all connected. I now live life happy and free, and no longer have the burden of doubt and fear.

Thank you Erik for changing my life for the better and putting me on to the truth! I love you so much and am truly grateful for you and your mom He is my ‘main man’ in the afterlife, since I don’t have any loved ones on the other side yet (I never knew my grandparents on either side, only met them as a child a handful of times, and while I’m sure they love me and watch over me, I don’t feel a connection there, to talk to them like I do Erik.

Erik’s Visit to Sachi and Donna

Posted in: After Death Communication, Channeling, Communication from the dead, Messages from the dead, Pranks from spirits, Spirits and electrical appliances

Two Erik stories today! The first is story about an Erik visit to Sachi is so amazing. It’s so typical of him to prank when we’re connected in some way to the blog, when he’s delivering on a promise to visit, or when we need him most. You’re really, really going to enjoy this one! (Thanks for sharing, sweet Sachi!)

Elisa -

I got my visit!! It wasn’t scary at all – it was wonderful. I’ll try to explain it to you… Last week I was listening to the audio of the last channeling session. As I was listening, I was also perusing a website, observando.net which is a site that has all kinds of pictures and signs (thousands). I was sitting at my computer with my left hand on my face – and my legs kind of twisted around each other with my both legs AND feet crossed over each other – off to the side of the chair (think kind of ladylike). During the part where the guy is talking about the prank with the phone app… this sign comes up on the website. Let me know if you can’t see this sign. If it didn’t work, you’ll only see a grey box.

Yep – wild huh, I was so happy! When I tell people of the experience it’s interesting how some people try to rationalize the “coincidence”. Then towards the end of the audio – as I’m still scrolling through that same site, a woman is listening to Jamie and says, Oh. OK. JUST as she says that, this comes up:

How wonderful! Life has been tumultuous at best this year so far, perverse yet full of grace. I have been so blessed and hope I can reciprocate the love and gifts I’ve received! I am so grateful.

xoxo

Sachi

The second story is from Donna and is equally amazing! He’s getting better and better with his pranks! Here’s the story:

As long as we are sharing our Erik visits I will share mine. I think it was Erik.
I was sitting in my recliner watching TV. I smelled a terrible smell, like a bad cat litter box smell. But we don’t have a cat or litter box. I asked my husband if he smelled it but he didn’t. The smell just faded away. Later I went in the kitchen by the sink and I smelled it again and again it just faded away. I lost my cat about six weeks ago and I had asked the spirits for proof she is still around me, so maybe that was my proof.
This past Thursday night three of our grandchildren had a sleep over. I had loaded the dishwasher and added the dishwasher soap and got distracted and forgot to turn it on to wash. We were all in the living room watching TV. and I heard the door on the dishwasher close and someone loudly pushing buttons on the dishwasher, Then the dishwasher started to wash the dishes. I immediately got up and went to the kitchen and nobody was in the kitchen and the buttons on the wash cycle wasn’t even lite up. I opened the door and closed the door again but still none of the cycle buttons lite up. The dished did run through a cycle and wash. This is kind of far fetched for a spirit to do , Don’t you think? But I can’t explain it.

Erik’s Visit to Mike

Posted in: Channeling, Pranks from spirits, Spiritual presence

Patience paid off for blog member, Mike M, when last week, Erik made himself quite clear. According to Robert, Mike’s nephew was also part of the prank.

Elisa,

I just have to tell you about Erik’s visit. I’ve been working on my heavy, dense, slow self. Maybe I should get serious about this meditating thing, I’m thinking. So, last night, after my 20 minute meditation stint, I just went to my bed, closed my eyes and relaxed, sort of floating, dreamy. After some time this extremely loud sound, like a fire cracker or a cherry bomb, maybe, just this loud bang right in front of my face went off. I let out this sort of yelp. Even my 12-year-old deaf Springer Spaniel, Emily, heard it. I opened my eyes the second I heard it and a little, round puff of smoke of some kind-not exactly smoke but a zillion tiny, little dots all in a circle, was there and it slowly retreated across the room. I asked Robert for a favor – if he would ask Erik if it was his handiwork. Yep, it was, along with my nephew who passed not too long ago. It so syncs that those two boys are messing around. Mark (the nephew) is a high-energy guy who loves life and lots of stimulation. They had to rent the Humble Convention Center for his funeral – there were over 5,000 people present. So, here I sit, trying to process this incredible thing and this amazing knowledge that this is real, not wishful thinking. You’re responsible for all of this and you ask nothing in return. At some other time, I’m going to talk to you about what all of us can do to contribute to this effort, financially and otherwise. Right now, I’m just going to try to wrap my head around it. To say I love you is really lame. but I do. mike m

I think I know why Erik created the cherry bomb sound. He used to love to come up to us, asleep or awake, and loudly clap his hands together inches from our face. So, for those of you who haven’t received an Erik visit, sometimes it takes patience, awareness and a quieter mind (which, in Mike’s case, was not quiet for long!)

Typical Goofball

One more thing: Robert and our family were enjoying the nice weather during our usually Friday night cook out when Robert saw Erik standing around a small tree in our backyard with three other spirits. One of them was Landon, Lisa’s son. (Apparently they’ve become tight buds.) I asked Robert what they were doing, and Robert said he didn’t know. Erik was just explaining something to the. Funny thing is I had just replaced the orange tree that we planted in honor of Erik after his death with a new, hardier and more vibrant species. He was probably telling them all of this plus how silly I looked planting it: squealing in horror at the touch of grub worms, carefully skirting around dog poop, pounding the new soil in to make sure there were no air pockets around the root ball, dirt covering all extremities, wiping my face or itching my nose from time to time for that extra special Al Jolson look. Nothing provides better fodder for jokes that a mom!

Erik's Orange Tree

Last but not least: Be sure you don’t miss out on the May and June small group channeling conference calls with Erik and Jamie. Just go to Jamie’s site (which is on my list links as “Jamie Butler”) click on “Classes and Products” at the top of her page. There you’ll see “Personal Growth” in the blue drop down window, and there you have it: the calendar with all the conference calls.

A Machine to Detect Your Deceased Loved One

Posted in: After Death Communication, Channeling, Communication from the dead, Contact with the dead, Messages from the dead

We’ve gotten lots of wonderful tributes for Jamie, and I thank you all so much. Imagine her surprise when I send it to her after we get more. I bet she’ll tear up with joy. I love you all!

Check this out and see what you think.Thanks Todd for email me this about a week ago! Sorry it took so long to post!

By JANICE PODSADA, of CNN affiliate CTNow/WTIC

GRANBY, Conn. — In 2004, 17-year-old Melissa Galka, a senior at Granby Memorial High School, died several days after being seriously hurt when the car she was driving hit a tree on Silver Street in Granby.
Within days of her death, she began communicating with her family, her father Gary Galka told The Courant Monday. “She started doing things like ringing the doorbell, changing TV channels, turning lights on and off,” Galka said.
“Then one time she came into my room and I felt her sit on the edge of the bed,” said Galka “I felt her lay her head on my chest.”

Galka’s wife, Cindy, and his two daughters, Jennifer and Heather, have also experienced similar phenomenon, either seeing Melissa or hearing her voice.

“I’ve never seen Melissa,” said Galka, “but my younger daughter Heather has seen her three times.”
This past weekend the family was featured on “Ghost Adventures,” a Travel Channel television program that explores paranormal phenomenon.

Soon after his daughter’s death, Galka, a test instrument engineer, began developing hand-held devices that purportedly can detect unusual vibrations in a room, temperature variations — “hot and cold spots,” and other activities associated with the paranormal. Galka also created a voice recorder, the “spirit box,” that he claims can record responses from any “spirits” that might be present.

“I’ve created over 30 different products for paranormal research. No one was making products for these people,” Galka said.

The crew of “Ghost Adventures” uses several of Galka’s devices: the Mel-Meter, the SB7 Spirit Box and other devices to detect paranormal activity when they film each episode.

The death of Galka’s daughter “caused him to develop equipment for the paranormal,” said the show’s host Zak Bagans. “With his devices he’s captured voices of her. His family, even people that aren’t related to him, have seen her at the house.”
“Gary is a very, very talented electrical engineer and he’s helped companies, massive companies, in that aspect in order to do things better,” Bagans added.

The paranormal devices are sold through Galka’s company, D.A.S. Distribution Inc., in East Granby. The company sells sound meters, humidity and temperature meters and lasers to medical and aerospace companies. The paranormal devices are a small portion of the business, although Galka said he has sold thousands of the devices.

Galka donates one-third of the profits from the sale of paranormal devices to bereavement groups, including The Cove Center for Grieving Children in Wallingford and Mary’s Place A Center For Grieving Children in Windsor, which both help children deal with the death of a brother or sister.

Galka’s most recent invention is a device that he says can detect shadows in the dark.
According to the D.A.S. website, http://www.pro-measure.com, the Mel meters, which can pick up electromagnetic field activity, are specifically designed for paranormal investigators.

As for skeptics, Galka says he hopes that his family’s experiences and the devices he has created will help people who don’t believe in the afterlife to “take a better position.”
“I feel compelled to help other bereaved parents … to show these parents that they can live beyond the grief and be comforted knowing their child is in a good place — to show them they can have hope.”
Melissa Galka was a member of the school’s gymnastics team and was preparing to study interior design and business management when she got to college. Students at Granby Memorial High School erected a permanent memorial on the school’s campus after her death.

“They built a beautiful memorial,” Galka said. “It was donated by the graduating seniors of 2005.”
