Have you ever wondered about the mysteries that lie beyond the realms of our physical world? Have you pondered on the nature of the soul, the concept of reincarnation, or the realities of near-death experiences? Today, we're joined by the extraordinary Venia Hill, an Air Force veteran with a tale that will snare your curiosity and challenge your existing beliefs.

Venia profoundly shares her near-death experience during a visit to Italy at the tender age of 17. She recounts a chilling out-of-body encounter that revealed the existence of the energy fields we emit and the limitations of energy within her own body. The conversation deepens as Vena explores her spiritual journey, reflecting on the lessons she's learned and how they connect to spirituality. She enlightens us on the idea that race and gender are mere physical coverings, and our true form transcends these worldly labels. 

Not only does Vena touch on her astral traveling experiences, but she also reveals her encounters with otherworldly dimensions during her near-death experience. We delve into intriguing concepts such as reincarnation, the soul's connection to other lives, and the nature of time and space on the other side. The conversation takes a fascinating turn as we discuss the existence of souls in animals and how they differ from human souls. As we wrap up, Venia sheds light on her understanding of God's nature, dispelling common misconceptions surrounding it.

00:00:00.541 --> 00:00:01.042
Hey everybody.

00:00:01.042 --> 00:00:04.091
This is Brian, back with another episode of Brief to Growth.

00:00:04.091 --> 00:00:05.464
I've got a very special guest today.

00:00:05.464 --> 00:00:07.285
Her name is Vena Hill.

00:00:07.285 --> 00:00:09.705
She's born and raised in Philadelphia.

00:00:09.705 --> 00:00:11.164
She's an Air Force veteran.

00:00:11.164 --> 00:00:14.028
She's traveled and resided in several countries.

00:00:14.028 --> 00:00:18.291
She had a profound NDE in their late teens while she was visiting Italy.

00:00:18.291 --> 00:00:19.966
She's going to tell us about that.

00:00:19.966 --> 00:00:22.547
Then she had a visit through the void years later.

00:00:22.547 --> 00:00:29.788
She's had several extraordinary experiences in her life and they all combine to solidify the messages she's here to share with us today.

00:00:29.788 --> 00:00:33.289
She's going to start off by telling us about her experience.

00:00:33.289 --> 00:00:37.731
What we really want to do is get to the messages that she's got for all of us.

00:00:37.731 --> 00:00:39.686
I think you're going to find them to be fascinating.

00:00:39.686 --> 00:00:42.246
With that, I want to introduce everybody to Vena Hill.

00:00:43.685 --> 00:00:44.551
Hello hello Vena.

00:00:44.551 --> 00:00:45.679
I'm sorry, Vena, that's all right.

00:00:45.679 --> 00:00:49.371
Vena, thanks for being here.

00:00:49.371 --> 00:00:51.567
I've seen some of your other interviews.

00:00:51.567 --> 00:00:53.988
I know you've got a really interesting story.

00:00:53.988 --> 00:00:56.387
I'm going to start off with your experience.

00:00:56.387 --> 00:00:58.807
Of course, we also want to get into the lessons that you learned.

00:01:00.061 --> 00:01:03.421
Well, first, thank you for having me, as I expressed.

00:01:03.421 --> 00:01:08.152
I think what you're doing is very important work for a lot of people.

00:01:08.152 --> 00:01:11.186
I think it helps a lot.

00:01:11.186 --> 00:01:14.905
I've actually checked your channel out too.

00:01:14.905 --> 00:01:19.965
You're doing some very good work.

00:01:19.965 --> 00:01:23.399
Thank you for that.

00:01:23.438 --> 00:01:27.847
Yes, I've had several experiences in my lifetime.

00:01:27.847 --> 00:01:46.212
Some sound unbelievable and yet I've had people tell me that, as unbelievable as they sound and as fantastic as they sound, they believed every word of it.

00:01:46.212 --> 00:01:50.870
I guess, probably because you just can't make it up.

00:01:50.870 --> 00:01:55.289
Some of the stuff I went through you really can't make it up.

00:01:55.289 --> 00:02:07.347
But anyway, I was 17 when I really had my first major experience and that was the near death experience where I literally died.

00:02:08.500 --> 00:02:14.311
I was on a trip to Italy and I was on the bus.

00:02:14.311 --> 00:02:29.569
After we got off the airport, I was on the bus, had loaded all our luggage up and prior to getting on the bus, I had taken some caffeine pills, and I took way too many.

00:02:29.569 --> 00:02:37.983
By the time I was getting on the bus the caffeine was just like I could almost come out of my skin.

00:02:37.983 --> 00:02:43.228
That's how much it was just going through my system.

00:02:43.228 --> 00:02:51.844
Of course, back then they were called, I believe, no-dos, and I don't think they put any kind of warnings on whatever to.

00:02:53.479 --> 00:03:05.305
But I started to feel my heart race and it raised so much to the point where I could hear it in my ears.

00:03:05.305 --> 00:03:28.913
I don't know if anyone has ever experienced that, but it's a very scary feeling because you're literally hearing your heart in your ears and it was going like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom and at one point it reached a peak and I felt something in my chest, obviously my heart.

00:03:28.913 --> 00:03:31.263
It did something really strange.

00:03:31.263 --> 00:03:47.405
And then the sound in my ear, my heartbeat started slowing down, slowing down, slowing down, and it actually just came to a stop, complete stop, and at that moment I opened my mouth to scream.

00:03:47.925 --> 00:03:50.711
But I had lost complete sensation in my body.

00:03:50.711 --> 00:04:24.685
I was not attached to my body anymore, physically, on a physiological level, and right at that moment my spirit just popped and literally popped out of my body and I was looking at my fleshly self on this bus, and not only myself, but I could just see everything around me and I didn't even know I had died.

00:04:24.685 --> 00:04:32.124
At that point that's the funny thing, brian it didn't really occur to me that I was dead, I just knew something had happened.

00:04:32.124 --> 00:04:45.115
And that's where things just really got really interesting and the start of the near-death experience.

00:04:46.302 --> 00:04:49.269
Well, I'm sure at 17, you probably had.

00:04:49.269 --> 00:04:58.110
I would guess you had no concept of like I could die, no absolutely not, and you probably had heard much about it or anything but near-death experience is at that point.

00:04:58.110 --> 00:05:02.110
So being outside of your body, I'm sure had to be disorienting.

00:05:03.302 --> 00:05:06.428
Oh, it was disorienting, but you feel so.

00:05:06.428 --> 00:05:22.269
First of all, when I first popped out of my body, I did eventually take what you would call a spiritual form, but immediately after I was pure consciousness.

00:05:22.269 --> 00:05:28.228
There was no breakdown in a barrier there on the bus.

00:05:28.228 --> 00:05:30.903
So you feel so alive.

00:05:30.903 --> 00:05:40.045
Death doesn't even occur to you because you're so alive and you're so hyper-aware of everything.

00:05:40.045 --> 00:05:50.846
There's an awareness that I joked with someone one time.

00:05:50.846 --> 00:06:02.168
I said if I could have this same awareness at the casino, I'd be like a millionaire, because you could just see everything, like through everything, everything.

00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:18.545
And I remember one of the very first things that I became conscious of when I did pop out of my body was everything is energy, everything has energy.

00:06:18.545 --> 00:06:27.646
Everything on that bus had energy, and not just the bus, but I was conscious of things outside of the bus, the cars.

00:06:27.646 --> 00:06:30.533
There were mountains there.

00:06:30.533 --> 00:06:32.627
Italy is a very mountainous country.

00:06:32.627 --> 00:06:37.230
I don't know if a lot of people are aware of that, but we were passing by some.

00:06:37.230 --> 00:06:40.163
They were emitting energy.

00:06:40.163 --> 00:06:50.925
The people on the bus they had different energy fields around them, which I'd known now as the auric field.

00:06:50.925 --> 00:06:55.290
Back then I had no clue what an aura was none whatsoever.

00:06:55.290 --> 00:07:10.927
So I'm seeing these beautiful Some of them were beautiful, some of them not but these streams of energy around people and I didn't know what it was.

00:07:10.927 --> 00:07:17.687
But yeah, so at 17, there's so much you're not aware of.

00:07:17.687 --> 00:07:27.785
You're feeling great, you don't think you can die, but I was very dead and looking.

00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:45.283
It's funny you say that because looking at my body on the bus, like I said, everyone else's auric field was so expressive or colorful I mean, they weren't all the same, they were different.

00:07:45.283 --> 00:07:53.951
But mine, my body, hardly had any energy coming from it.

00:07:53.951 --> 00:08:15.687
It was so little and I remember not doing a double take, but I twice looked at people, their lights, and then I looked at my body and it's like there's like nothing, there's none of that coming from it.

00:08:15.687 --> 00:08:18.761
Hardly you know so.

00:08:18.761 --> 00:08:29.564
And, by the way, we look totally different outside of our bodies than we do when we're looking in a mirror.

00:08:29.564 --> 00:08:39.309
Our bodies are not the same, because you're seeing things the whole, I guess, in a mirror it's what one or two dimensions.

00:08:39.309 --> 00:08:50.423
Well, when you're looking at yourself from outside of yourself, it's, you're seeing the whole slab of which is what it is meat.

00:08:50.865 --> 00:08:51.147
Yeah.

00:08:51.799 --> 00:08:53.245
I don't know, for lack of a better word.

00:08:55.635 --> 00:08:56.918
Yeah, so was there.

00:08:56.918 --> 00:09:01.611
I've heard some people have NDE say, well, there was like really no attachment to my body.

00:09:01.611 --> 00:09:03.644
How did you feel about your body at that point?

00:09:04.145 --> 00:09:06.951
There was no, there is, there was no attachment.

00:09:06.951 --> 00:09:09.745
I just felt like I knew it was me.

00:09:09.745 --> 00:09:31.846
But you're so, you're so alive, brian, and you're so In that consciousness that it's like looking at this laptop right now, almost the attachment you feel towards it.

00:09:31.846 --> 00:09:44.293
It's like, okay, subjectively, yeah, I know, this is like my body, but I don't feel attached to it in that sense.

00:09:44.293 --> 00:10:13.511
But there was a moment, though, I did have some type of compassion for myself when I was looking down at myself, because things were running through my mind about the vener that was laying there and the life that she had lived up to that point, and so there was a very detached compassion towards me.

00:10:13.511 --> 00:10:30.625
Okay, but along with that, you have like an understanding and awareness more of she was just going through the motions of life.

00:10:30.625 --> 00:10:32.361
Does that make sense?

00:10:32.361 --> 00:10:41.245
Nothing really affected her truly, she was just going through the emotions of life.

00:10:41.245 --> 00:10:54.710
But I did have a sense of compassion for me, yeah, even though I was very detached from me, from the body.

00:10:54.710 --> 00:10:55.672
I hope I'm making sense.

00:10:56.212 --> 00:11:02.149
Yeah, well, I think so, and because we a lot of times we identify with our bodies, will say this is me.

00:11:02.149 --> 00:11:08.066
And I think, you know, for people like myself who have been doing this as long as I have, I will say this is my body.

00:11:08.066 --> 00:11:09.404
Suppose this is me.

00:11:09.404 --> 00:11:15.182
So I think when people come outside of it, it's like, well, no, I'm not dead, because this is me.

00:11:15.182 --> 00:11:18.969
Right, the essence of you is now removed from the body.

00:11:18.969 --> 00:11:22.427
So the body is just like I've heard, it's like taking off old clothes.

00:11:23.349 --> 00:11:23.669
It is.

00:11:23.669 --> 00:11:28.186
It seriously is, and that's one of the reasons from a bird.

00:11:28.186 --> 00:11:38.346
From that point forward, race took on a whole different meaning from for me, and especially when we will talk about this.

00:11:38.346 --> 00:11:54.096
But when I, when I did go into the actual spiritual realm and made connection with my actual soul, you realize how race is literally nothing.

00:11:54.096 --> 00:11:59.052
I mean it's, it's, it is just a cover and that is it.

00:11:59.052 --> 00:12:16.947
I mean that's not to take away from having racial pride or recognizing ourselves, our species, because we are racial here, okay, but our true essence there's no race.

00:12:16.947 --> 00:12:21.341
There's no race, no gender.

00:12:21.341 --> 00:12:25.384
So none of that.

00:12:25.384 --> 00:12:28.270
This is literally a covering.

00:12:28.270 --> 00:12:37.513
And when you see yourself in true spiritual form, you realize you are purely spiritual.

00:12:37.513 --> 00:12:39.535
Yeah, Wow.

00:12:39.679 --> 00:12:41.086
It's really, really interesting.

00:12:41.086 --> 00:12:41.528
You bring it up.

00:12:41.528 --> 00:12:42.804
I just want to interject this here.

00:12:42.804 --> 00:12:52.388
When you said that, because for me I resisted the idea of race for the first 20 plus years of my life, I'm like I'm not a black.

00:12:52.388 --> 00:12:58.571
I mean I am black, but like everybody keeps telling me, you're black, you're black, you have to be black.

00:12:58.571 --> 00:13:02.102
I'm like no, I'm just, I'm human, I'm a person and you know.

00:13:02.102 --> 00:13:08.684
But then eventually you take on that identity when you're here, because you're starting and that's what you are here.

00:13:08.960 --> 00:13:10.083
And there's nothing wrong with that.

00:13:10.083 --> 00:13:11.107
I'm a black woman.

00:13:11.107 --> 00:13:11.991
Right, right.

00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:22.114
I'm a black woman here, yeah, but what I'm trying to say is I have had the privilege of seeing my true form.

00:13:22.114 --> 00:13:30.812
And my true form is spiritual and it has nothing to do with race, sex, creed, none of that.

00:13:30.812 --> 00:13:37.270
And so, while we're here, I totally get racial pride.

00:13:37.270 --> 00:13:39.143
I get all that.

00:13:39.143 --> 00:13:52.033
I have racial pride, okay, but, like I said, our true spiritual form we have to understand is none of that.

00:13:52.033 --> 00:13:54.745
It involves none of that.

00:13:54.745 --> 00:14:02.913
As a matter of fact, it never even came up when I was on the other side.

00:14:03.232 --> 00:14:06.006
Yeah, so let's talk about your experiences on the other side.

00:14:06.006 --> 00:14:08.245
So now you're out of your body and you're on the bus.

00:14:08.245 --> 00:14:09.086
Yes, yeah.

00:14:09.648 --> 00:14:35.905
Yes, I had some more experiences on the bus and then, eventually, this being kind of, I'll say, niggled or touched my consciousness with its consciousness.

00:14:35.905 --> 00:14:55.566
There was no speaking, but it was like a major thought transference of we're going to go now, like it was identified as my guide and we're out of here, and so we left the bus.

00:14:55.566 --> 00:15:08.394
It took me out of the bus, we went out of the bus and we landed in this white realm, which is the only.

00:15:08.394 --> 00:15:13.110
It wasn't a tunnel, did not go through a tunnel, none of that.

00:15:13.110 --> 00:15:26.673
We landed right in this white, pure, loving realm, the most reverent place.

00:15:29.720 --> 00:15:55.227
I just cannot describe it fully, but I will say that imagine a room that is all white and you're just completely, 100% at peace there.

00:15:55.227 --> 00:16:04.160
Okay, you're infused with so much love, so much divinity.

00:16:04.160 --> 00:16:12.238
You couldn't and can't think a negative thought, and it just this.

00:16:12.238 --> 00:16:19.788
The energies of this room just permeate through your entire being and even deeper.

00:16:19.788 --> 00:16:27.086
And imagine that in this room, you just feel like you finally have come home.

00:16:27.086 --> 00:16:30.621
That's what this realm felt like to me.

00:16:30.621 --> 00:16:35.465
I'm actually sort of experiencing it again and I can tell.

00:16:35.905 --> 00:16:48.448
Yeah, and when I close my eyes I'm literally like trying to relive it again so that I could explain it and express it in the most clearest way that I can.

00:16:48.448 --> 00:16:59.057
But I can tell you and I'm just right at this moment I'm getting goosebumps.

00:16:59.057 --> 00:17:30.910
But I'll just say that this realm was not a necessarily like a place, but it was the atmosphere of the spiritual world that permeates throughout it all Harmonious, divine, loving, pure, pure, pure love.

00:17:30.910 --> 00:18:16.288
Yeah, and in this realm and the being that that took me there, I knew that they were still there, but I was so at peace and so aware of the spiritual world through this white realm that I knew that the being was there, my guy, that they identified themselves to me as my guy and that they were so stand, not standoffish, but so in the background and just allowing me to experience this wonderful, beautiful realm.

00:18:16.288 --> 00:18:19.921
And in this realm I saw.

00:18:19.921 --> 00:18:22.605
I saw many different souls.

00:18:22.605 --> 00:18:25.339
They were just streaming through.

00:18:25.339 --> 00:18:38.044
I sense them, but they weren't Intrusive on my, on my piece there or none of that.

00:18:38.044 --> 00:18:43.115
I just knew that they were there, they were experiencing it, but we were just.

00:18:43.115 --> 00:18:50.067
We just left each other alone because we were just absorbing an experience in this realm.

00:18:54.159 --> 00:19:02.490
I saw so much, but one of the things that I did see was, or did experience, was, my soul.

00:19:02.490 --> 00:19:21.371
So I, when I first went into the realm, I was just conscious basically of of me and this guy, and then I started experiencing other souls in this realm.

00:19:21.371 --> 00:19:31.086
But then I realized my true highest self, which is the soul.

00:19:31.086 --> 00:19:37.414
Your soul is your highest being, of the you, of you.

00:19:37.414 --> 00:19:38.997
I'll just put it that way.

00:19:39.198 --> 00:19:51.421
I realized that the Vina that was in the white room was not the whole Vina, it was not the ultimate Vina.

00:19:51.421 --> 00:19:56.910
The ultimate Vina was my soul, which I did make a connection with.

00:19:56.910 --> 00:20:01.881
But it was so much more than this.

00:20:01.881 --> 00:20:21.369
That Vina that just went to Italy and died on a bus and I'm laughing because I was such an in that Vina was not insignificant, but such a small part of the overall Vina.

00:20:21.369 --> 00:20:39.414
This, the overall Vina, had been around forever and had experienced so much and had created so much and was completely in tune with these high that, the higher realms of the spiritual world.

00:20:39.414 --> 00:20:50.458
And, believe it or not, I was not in the highest realm of the spiritual world because there's so many layers over there, just so many.

00:20:50.458 --> 00:20:54.603
But my soul, which I did connect with.

00:20:54.603 --> 00:20:58.948
I experienced a lot of that through that connection.

00:20:58.948 --> 00:21:21.171
But that Vina was just one small aspect of the overall soul that we all have and is our, our ultimate, the Brian of Brian, which is not even Brian.

00:21:23.915 --> 00:21:31.431
So yeah, I don't want to interrupt, so it might be confusing some people because we think that I am my soul.

00:21:31.431 --> 00:21:33.414
You know that my soul incarnates in my body.

00:21:33.414 --> 00:21:39.047
You're saying there's something beyond this and this is just a small part of what we ultimately are.

00:21:39.914 --> 00:21:43.939
So the soul never incarnates, ever.

00:21:43.939 --> 00:21:53.488
People, and I know that when I first told people that they were like what?

00:21:53.488 --> 00:21:55.790
No, that's, that's not true.

00:21:55.790 --> 00:22:06.443
I'm here, the soul, the highest aspect of you, me and all of us, which is the soul, never incarnates.

00:22:06.443 --> 00:22:07.444
It cannot.

00:22:07.444 --> 00:22:13.471
It cannot be confined to this 3D.

00:22:13.471 --> 00:22:25.567
However, the soul has, can send spiritual offshoots here and elsewhere, and it does.

00:22:25.567 --> 00:22:30.196
It sends out.

00:22:30.196 --> 00:22:47.903
You know, think of the soul as like the head of an octopus, and the octopus has what like eight legs or something, or maybe some more, but those legs are, are you and me and wherever else.

00:22:47.903 --> 00:23:06.065
The soul wants to experience life, because there's many more, there's many more worlds, there are many more Existences we can live and experience.

00:23:06.065 --> 00:23:07.909
This is just one of them.

00:23:07.909 --> 00:23:18.910
But so, your soul, this is not being a soul, this is an aspect of being a soul.

00:23:18.910 --> 00:23:22.880
And now, mind you, we're always connected.

00:23:22.880 --> 00:23:29.368
You cannot, you know, disconnect that octopus leg from the, its head, or whatever you call it Right?

00:23:29.368 --> 00:23:30.997
Is it ahead?

00:23:30.997 --> 00:23:31.799
I don't know.

00:23:32.454 --> 00:23:33.840
Yeah, I think it's a great analogy.

00:23:33.840 --> 00:23:34.714
Yeah.

00:23:35.135 --> 00:23:38.359
Okay, I just want to make it as clear as possible.

00:23:38.359 --> 00:24:04.797
That is what I saw in the realm and if forever, it just imprinted on my brain and and once I started processing that throughout my life and understanding, I realized just how powerful Our souls are.

00:24:04.797 --> 00:24:12.970
Our souls are immensely powerful, but this is just one aspect of it.

00:24:12.970 --> 00:24:18.227
Like the rays of a sun were just one of those rays.

00:24:19.357 --> 00:24:19.798
Interesting.

00:24:19.798 --> 00:24:23.169
Yeah, that's a really interesting concept and it's something it's.

00:24:23.169 --> 00:24:25.394
I've heard it put it other ways.

00:24:25.394 --> 00:24:44.044
Frankie Francis Key wrote some books called the team books, and the way she describes it, she says when we're incarnated here I think the analogy she uses, like she's like if you're sitting on the bank of a river and your big toes in the water she goes that's, that's what it's like being incarnated as a human, you know, and our soul is the rest of the rest of the body.

00:24:44.434 --> 00:24:47.137
Yes, yes, we are not.

00:24:47.137 --> 00:24:49.540
This is, this is not our soul.

00:24:49.540 --> 00:24:51.284
Trust me, it's not.

00:24:51.284 --> 00:24:52.164
It's not.

00:24:52.164 --> 00:25:00.698
And if you think about it, the soul is so powerful and it's indestructible.

00:25:00.698 --> 00:25:02.160
It cannot be diminished.

00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:07.484
The soul can never be controlled, destroyed, diminished in any way.

00:25:07.484 --> 00:25:12.849
However, aspects of the soul can be like in our human form.

00:25:12.849 --> 00:25:17.414
We can be, or, if we were, we decided to incarnate elsewhere.

00:25:17.414 --> 00:25:23.623
You know, yes, but the soul is very powerful.

00:25:23.623 --> 00:25:29.971
It is literally a part of the source of all.

00:25:31.921 --> 00:25:32.122
Wow.

00:25:32.122 --> 00:25:37.279
So when you experienced your soul, what was that?

00:25:37.279 --> 00:25:37.579
Like?

00:25:37.579 --> 00:25:40.281
I mean, you described it as being powerful.

00:25:40.281 --> 00:25:41.663
Was it like coming home?

00:25:41.663 --> 00:25:44.006
Do you reconnect with your soul?

00:25:45.307 --> 00:25:46.969
Because I think a lot of us are saying well, okay.

00:25:46.989 --> 00:25:47.710
Well then I'd be.

00:25:47.710 --> 00:25:49.070
Am I going to be absorbed?

00:25:49.070 --> 00:25:50.051
Am I going to be lost?

00:25:51.036 --> 00:25:52.919
Oh gosh, no, no, no.

00:25:53.339 --> 00:26:01.417
Like I said, the soul can never be diminished in any way or form, and there was no.

00:26:01.919 --> 00:26:39.723
I still had my complete identity as Vina and but I, it was a connection made to it, but it wasn't an absorption into it, because I would imagine that if I did completely absorb back into my soul, we wouldn't be talking now, right, okay so, but there was a major connection to it and I got to tell you there was a reverence in connecting to it.

00:26:40.263 --> 00:27:15.564
I felt such a not that I, there's no worship on the other side, okay, but I felt such a reverence towards my soul, because the soul, you know, is the highest aspect of any of us and it contains all the divinity and love and pureness of the other side.

00:27:15.564 --> 00:27:39.862
And so when you're face to face with your soul, you are face to face with that divinity, that love, that purity, and it's a beautiful and awe-inspiring moment.

00:27:39.862 --> 00:28:14.692
Not that I wanted to be like this to my soul, but it was just a beautiful connect to a major part of me, or the me of me, like I was allowed to experience the soul, but always I knew that this, I could not merge with it.

00:28:14.692 --> 00:28:19.256
Yet that's just the best way I can describe it.

00:28:19.557 --> 00:28:24.319
Yeah Well, you're describing concepts that I believe are beyond our human understanding.

00:28:24.319 --> 00:28:27.728
So we're trying, we're all trying and I'm trying desperately.

00:28:28.148 --> 00:28:29.394
Yeah, I really am.

00:28:29.394 --> 00:29:02.338
I always want, when I decided finally, after all these years, to really come out with this, I said that I was just going to do it and be as forthcoming as I could be with almost everything I experienced, because it's I would want to know, you know, I would want to know, yeah, and so I really I'm still here.

00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:03.059
I'm still here.

00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:03.902
Okay, okay.

00:29:03.902 --> 00:29:16.586
I really want to bring out as much of it as I can, but unfortunately I'm a tad bit limited by language.

00:29:17.390 --> 00:29:24.163
Yes, well and again, language is only evolved to describe what we can comprehend, right?

00:29:24.163 --> 00:29:30.439
So when you go beyond something we can comprehend, we don't have the language, so you just have to do the best you can, which is what you're doing.

00:29:30.439 --> 00:29:35.740
For anybody that's wondering, my camera just went off for some reason, but I'm still here, so just go ahead.

00:29:36.150 --> 00:29:43.615
Well, and you know, I don't know if you believe in it, but Mercury is retrograde and it that's the kind of stuff that happens with Mercury.

00:29:44.056 --> 00:29:50.516
Yeah, yeah, it's really weird because it's just, it's just been offered for absolutely no reason, but it's not important that people see me.

00:29:50.516 --> 00:29:55.359
So what else happened when you were on the other side?

00:29:56.109 --> 00:30:01.122
So I was, oh my goodness.

00:30:01.122 --> 00:30:32.076
I mean, there was a bunch of knowledge that I collected while I was in the white realm and then, eventually, my guide said that we're going to travel and I had a brief, brief moment, I'll say a questioning moment, like, was this okay?

00:30:32.076 --> 00:30:33.539
And that type of thing.

00:30:33.539 --> 00:30:54.377
But you know my soul, since I had made that connection you're back, by the way it said that it was like it just infused me with it's okay, it's okay.

00:30:54.377 --> 00:30:59.921
And I got that from my inner guttural, instinctive level.

00:30:59.921 --> 00:31:05.902
And so I was gained to travel and we went through this.

00:31:05.902 --> 00:31:13.031
It wasn't a tunnel, but it was like a portal of energy, I'll just say.

00:31:13.031 --> 00:31:18.257
And we went out into space.

00:31:18.257 --> 00:31:49.438
And I'll just say this Before I had that near death experience, I had astral travel once in my was laying in bed and I astral traveled, my body zoomed out into space and I think I was there for nanoseconds, brian, and then it was like, oh my God, it was just so overwhelming and I zoomed right back in.

00:31:50.789 --> 00:31:53.692
I just literally, I just couldn't take it, it was too much.

00:31:53.692 --> 00:32:21.318
But this time I was with this being my, my guy, and when we went out there it was still overwhelming and it was still massive and it was still endless and and everywhere and when I say everywhere, I mean front, backside, everywhere, up down, I mean just.

00:32:21.318 --> 00:32:32.059
But I just felt not protected because there wasn't.

00:32:32.059 --> 00:33:02.098
There wasn't like a threat, but I felt energy of them, just kind of like comfort and and calm me, and so I was able to see so much out there and I got to tell you there's some stuff going on out there that a lot of it we don't even see through our telescopes, probably never will.

00:33:02.098 --> 00:33:13.842
Some of what we do see and we've been lied to, there's so many planets out there that we're not, they're not telling us about.

00:33:13.842 --> 00:33:22.194
There's so much space traffic out there, a lot of space traffic.

00:33:23.430 --> 00:33:43.544
I actually saw souls traveling in orb type forms and, by the way, my guide was always an orb, always presented itself as an orb to me, never as a a humanoid type figure, never as a, even a spiritual figure.

00:33:43.544 --> 00:33:46.417
It stayed an orb the entire time.

00:33:46.417 --> 00:33:50.019
I couldn't tell you if they were male or female.

00:33:50.019 --> 00:34:06.883
That was deliberately kept from me and I was never given their name and I understand now why they did tell me kind of partly during the experience.

00:34:07.183 --> 00:34:42.615
You know that names, spiritual names, are very powerful and they, they contain a lot of energy behind them, and so that is why we're not usually giving given spiritual names, like you and I have spiritual names on the other side, but we're rarely giving them here because of the power that they contain and it's symbolic and it's energy and it's it's a lot in that one name and it fits us perfectly.

00:34:42.615 --> 00:35:02.021
But anyway, and sorry for rambling off like that, but so there were orbs that were traveling out in space that I saw, and some of them I knew were humans and some weren't.

00:35:02.021 --> 00:35:35.284
Some were other type species that were in orb form traveling, and some were, like, very determined to get to their destination and some were just kind of hanging out, sort of like we were, because I was in an orb form at that point too, and I gotta tell you, space is literally mind-blowing.

00:35:35.284 --> 00:35:41.452
I don't know if you've ever meditated and went out into space.

00:35:42.945 --> 00:35:44.597
I've never been out of my body that I've been wearing.

00:35:44.744 --> 00:35:45.588
Okay, all right.

00:35:45.588 --> 00:35:50.514
Well, it's mind-blowing.

00:35:50.514 --> 00:35:54.112
It really is, and there's so many dimensions out there.

00:35:56.469 --> 00:36:04.012
I was just gonna ask you to interrupt you for a moment, because there is the space that we know of in our three dimensions, but there's also dimensions beyond this.

00:36:04.012 --> 00:36:08.492
So do you think you were seeing other dimensions, or were these things actually in our dimension as well?

00:36:09.324 --> 00:36:11.932
Absolutely well, somewhere in our dimension.

00:36:11.932 --> 00:36:22.934
For sure, I did see quite a few ships traveling and I knew that they were three dimensional, but I also saw some in other dimensions.

00:36:22.934 --> 00:36:58.786
There's a lot of dimensional traffic and I described in the book that if you there's more traffic out in space than, like, on an Atlanta highway Except it's, you know it's you've got alien species traveling, you've got souls traveling, and summer some of the aliens are three dimensional but a lot of them aren't there.

00:36:58.786 --> 00:37:05.396
You know there's a lot of interdimensional travel going on out there.

00:37:05.965 --> 00:37:10.050
Well, you know, and it's interesting, you bring up what our government you said.

00:37:10.050 --> 00:37:12.831
They're lying to us and typically we go to government.

00:37:12.831 --> 00:37:22.528
You know there is some disclosure now of you know, some admission of UFOs or aliens that we've been in contact with, even though we've known for decades.

00:37:22.528 --> 00:37:28.510
That you know, we've known from anecdotal stories, but the government's starting to finally admit it.

00:37:28.530 --> 00:37:39.474
Yes, and you know I have a YouTube channel and I answer questions and answers and one of the questions was does the government?

00:37:39.474 --> 00:37:50.413
Someone asked does the government, are they deliberately covering up, you know, the alien existence, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

00:37:50.413 --> 00:37:53.369
Absolutely, and they have been forever.

00:37:53.369 --> 00:38:02.693
But people will be surprised, I think, to know that a lot of that is due to the aliens' request.

00:38:02.693 --> 00:38:20.454
In other words, if you think about it, if today we woke up and they said, yes, aliens definitely exist, they're here on Earth and here they are, I think our entire society would probably collapse.

00:38:20.454 --> 00:38:32.634
I think for some it would just be too too much mentally for some, some would have breakdowns, others would be happy.

00:38:32.634 --> 00:38:49.784
But I think it's more done, more for our protection, and a lot of it is because of the aliens want to remain incognito.

00:38:49.784 --> 00:39:00.630
Yes, the government covers up absolutely 100%, but it's not all, because they're doing it just to keep it from us.

00:39:00.630 --> 00:39:07.956
It would have a devastating effect on a lot of the population of the world.

00:39:08.246 --> 00:39:09.610
And this I saw.

00:39:09.610 --> 00:39:22.715
I saw that Because when I was coming up, and especially when I had this experience, they completely were denying the existence of aliens.

00:39:22.715 --> 00:39:25.512
And so for me to actually see them.

00:39:25.512 --> 00:39:30.784
And at one point I saw this humongous sphere out in space.

00:39:30.784 --> 00:39:36.454
That was three-dimensional, by the way, and it was not.

00:39:36.454 --> 00:39:43.976
It was maybe the size of Earth, but a little bit smaller.

00:39:43.976 --> 00:40:01.396
I was told by my guide that it could not show me this particular species of beings because it would just be too much for me to handle.

00:40:01.396 --> 00:40:27.523
Now, mind you, at another point we went to another portion or section of space and I was actually told kind of where it was, but not like in longitude and latitude, because I don't have a scientific type mind, and I know my guide knew that and I still don't.

00:40:28.827 --> 00:40:37.335
But the beings that I saw, brian, I gotta tell you they were.

00:40:37.335 --> 00:40:44.612
If you saw them now, you would probably just, I don't know, pass out.

00:40:44.612 --> 00:40:46.248
They were.

00:40:46.248 --> 00:40:59.034
They just had two vertical slits, no nose, no mouth, just vertical slits, and the slits opened.

00:40:59.034 --> 00:41:12.492
This way they did have ears and they were like a crystalline, a bio crystalline type of entity, and so was their ship.

00:41:12.492 --> 00:41:24.585
Their ship was just about the same type of material as their body, and at 17, it was.

00:41:24.585 --> 00:41:28.644
You just can't make any parallels.

00:41:28.644 --> 00:41:40.492
So, mind you, I came from the government saying there's no aliens, we're in, that's it To seeing this species, and it was just like it was too much.

00:41:40.492 --> 00:41:52.061
It was just, I was so disinterested, it wasn't even funny and but I saw my guide.

00:41:52.061 --> 00:42:05.713
Let me see just enough of these creatures and their ship and how they did their ship to remember and, I guess, to talk about it now.

00:42:07.231 --> 00:42:30.717
Yeah, well, you know, as you're saying this, I think I wonder how much of this comes through in our fiction, in our movies and stuff, because you think about movies like Star Wars with the different aliens and Star Trek, gene Rydenberry back in the 60s showing all the different species and most recently James Cameron with Avatar, and I've understood that James Cameron had an NDE.

00:42:30.717 --> 00:42:31.963
So I wonder.

00:42:31.983 --> 00:42:32.605
I didn't know that.

00:42:33.628 --> 00:42:34.369
I believe that.

00:42:34.369 --> 00:42:35.673
But I believe that's true yeah.

00:42:35.813 --> 00:42:36.235
Oh, wow.

00:42:37.472 --> 00:42:45.668
You know, our government has told us on the one hand there's nothing else out there, but meanwhile we've got all kinds of imagination, at least of what is out there.

00:42:47.813 --> 00:43:01.233
Yeah, yes, and a lot of people are fed that information when they're either sleeping and they're traveling to the other side and getting these downloads.

00:43:01.873 --> 00:43:02.795
Right, right.

00:43:04.427 --> 00:43:12.974
And a lot of times our guides will give us this information if it's time for stuff, certain things to get out.

00:43:12.974 --> 00:43:18.657
You know so those Gene Rydenberries and James Cameron's.

00:43:18.657 --> 00:43:20.900
You said he had a near-death experience.

00:43:20.960 --> 00:43:21.664
I believe that's true, yeah.

00:43:22.025 --> 00:43:30.150
Maybe he did, yes, but yeah, we're fed that information or it's just through our travels, because we do a lot of traveling.

00:43:30.570 --> 00:43:30.891
Right.

00:43:31.704 --> 00:43:32.728
You know when we're asleep.

00:43:33.349 --> 00:43:36.568
Right, a lot of traveling, the pictures behind you.

00:43:36.568 --> 00:43:38.313
Did you pay those?

00:43:38.353 --> 00:43:38.853
Yeah, I did.

00:43:39.744 --> 00:43:43.009
Okay, so those are representations of some of your experiences, I assume.

00:43:44.724 --> 00:43:46.010
From the near-death experience.

00:43:46.010 --> 00:43:47.586
So this one here.

00:43:47.586 --> 00:43:53.369
While out in space I saw one of these.

00:43:53.369 --> 00:43:57.769
This looks like a nebula and you think, yeah, that's a nebula, right.

00:43:58.010 --> 00:43:58.190
Mm-hmm.

00:43:58.692 --> 00:44:15.617
Okay, Except I experienced that out in space there was an actual living being that was very intelligent and it was moving with purpose out there, Wow, Okay.

00:44:15.617 --> 00:44:29.434
And so I've never been able to look at a nebula the same again, I'm not saying that they're all alive like that, but this, the one that I experienced, was very much alive.

00:44:29.434 --> 00:44:31.967
There was a.

00:44:31.967 --> 00:44:38.893
I was allowed to see an asteroid moving, and on this asteroid was this creature.

00:44:38.893 --> 00:44:53.114
It was huge and it looked like a sort of like a hippopotamus, but a huge hippopotamus out on this asteroid.

00:44:53.114 --> 00:44:54.927
And, mind you, it was.

00:44:54.927 --> 00:45:02.664
It wasn't enclosed in anything, there was nothing housing it, it was just on this asteroid.

00:45:02.664 --> 00:45:10.856
And back then I had no clue what I know you've heard of a tardigrade.

00:45:10.876 --> 00:45:12.664
I'm not familiar with that now.

00:45:13.367 --> 00:45:21.262
Okay, good, because I wasn't, so that's good, back then I wasn't, but they are beings.

00:45:21.262 --> 00:45:33.664
They're microscopic beings that can withstand nuclear energy, okay, and they're basically indestructible.

00:45:33.664 --> 00:45:48.664
And when I saw this a few years ago, this being through a microscope because that's how tiny it is it looked exactly like this huge being I saw on this asteroid.

00:45:48.664 --> 00:45:59.644
Okay, and putting two and two together, I'm like, oh, my goodness, this is just a bigger, larger version of the tardigrade.

00:45:59.644 --> 00:46:07.664
And it made sense because, like I said, the tardigrade, you can't even destroy it with nuclear energy.

00:46:07.664 --> 00:46:17.625
So what's out in space, nuclear type of energy, right, and this being was on this asteroid and it was fine.

00:46:17.625 --> 00:46:23.664
So it was just, like I said, a bigger version of the tardigrade.

00:46:24.045 --> 00:46:59.378
But, yeah, so that was one of the creatures, this sun one of the last places I was taking to during the near-death experience was a water planet and the planet had a blue sun, beautiful, beautiful blue sun, and so I tried to capture that here and it was just a full water planet.

00:46:59.378 --> 00:47:24.311
There was very little landmass on this planet and there were creatures on this planet Marine life creatures, mer creatures and let me tell you they don't look like our sweet little mermaid cartoons or in our movies here.

00:47:24.311 --> 00:47:27.072
They're quite frightening.

00:47:27.072 --> 00:47:28.175
Looking some of them.

00:47:29.347 --> 00:47:29.809
Interesting.

00:47:30.684 --> 00:47:32.271
Yes, but yes, both of these.

00:47:32.271 --> 00:47:34.550
I've done several more, but yes.

00:47:37.936 --> 00:47:39.664
So you had to expect you did some traveling.

00:47:39.664 --> 00:47:55.992
Sounds like there's several places and I want to tell people you're going to have to get the book to really, I think, a full aspect of this, because it sounds like there's a lot more than we can cover in an hour or so yeah absolutely, but how did you eventually come back into your body?

00:48:02.088 --> 00:48:26.335
So my guide after we come from the water world, we went back into the white realm and I was taught quite a few things and I was also taken to a lovely, beautiful garden meadow, whatever you want to call it.

00:48:26.335 --> 00:48:38.715
But to answer your question, do you mean the physiological, like how I was put back in?

00:48:39.302 --> 00:48:40.931
Well, was there because it's interesting.

00:48:40.931 --> 00:48:43.282
I've heard some people say just like, suddenly I was back.

00:48:43.282 --> 00:48:46.188
Some people said there was a conversation, are you going back?

00:48:46.188 --> 00:48:48.704
So was that process like?

00:48:49.699 --> 00:48:50.905
It was definitely a process.

00:48:50.905 --> 00:48:53.365
It wasn't a phew, you're back.

00:48:53.365 --> 00:49:11.864
No, okay, sometimes when I, when I've heard people say, yeah, boom, I was just right back in, I'm like wow, because mine was such a process and it wasn't instantaneous.

00:49:11.864 --> 00:49:30.791
You, literally, you can feel your spiritual aspect trying to fit back into your body and you're, you're not connected to your body right away.

00:49:30.791 --> 00:49:36.590
Your body has to reconnect to those sensations of the physical form.

00:49:36.590 --> 00:49:51.610
So it's, it's, it's like a, a sucking type motion or process, and it's it's not instantaneous.

00:49:52.559 --> 00:49:53.983
Was there a conversation about?

00:49:53.983 --> 00:49:56.329
I meant to ask was there a conversation about coming back?

00:49:56.329 --> 00:49:58.650
Was it like, were you given a choice?

00:49:59.059 --> 00:50:01.681
No, no choice it was.

00:50:01.681 --> 00:50:03.987
It was basically understood.

00:50:03.987 --> 00:50:06.442
There was abs.

00:50:06.442 --> 00:50:06.842
I didn't.

00:50:06.842 --> 00:50:20.291
I didn't want to stay as much as I loved it and felt that it was home, but during the near death experience I saw why I was here.

00:50:20.931 --> 00:50:21.594
Yeah, okay.

00:50:22.400 --> 00:50:26.048
So I understood that I still had more time here.

00:50:26.489 --> 00:50:26.731
Okay.

00:50:27.400 --> 00:50:35.885
So it wasn't like a no, I'm not going back, I'm staying, no, and it was no forcing, none of that.

00:50:35.885 --> 00:50:38.586
It was, it was understood.

00:50:39.409 --> 00:50:40.050
Why were you here?

00:50:40.050 --> 00:50:40.641
What did?

00:50:40.641 --> 00:50:42.445
Do you remember what they told you about why you were here?

00:50:43.760 --> 00:50:45.804
It wasn't what I was told, but what I saw.

00:50:46.206 --> 00:50:46.507
Okay.

00:50:47.028 --> 00:50:47.449
I saw.

00:50:47.449 --> 00:50:59.447
I saw the purpose and the reason, you know, for me being here in, you know, this time, and there was quite a few reasons for it.

00:50:59.447 --> 00:51:05.731
I did have some, some karmic obligations with some family.

00:51:05.731 --> 00:51:15.686
I also agreed to help certain people and a few other extremely personal reasons.

00:51:15.686 --> 00:51:16.027
Why?

00:51:16.027 --> 00:51:17.601
Um?

00:51:17.601 --> 00:51:30.101
But yeah, I, I knew why I was here, so it was no question of me coming back and I I have no problem living life Like I.

00:51:30.101 --> 00:51:33.893
I want to finish out this time, yeah.

00:51:34.860 --> 00:51:39.425
I think I deal with a lot of people that have been through tragedies, you know, people that lost children, et cetera.

00:51:39.425 --> 00:51:50.820
And so when we hear about realms where there's peace and love and comfort and we think about all, the, all the chaos that we go through on earth, people sometimes struggle with like why?

00:51:50.820 --> 00:51:52.103
Why am I still here?

00:51:52.686 --> 00:51:55.081
Absolutely, absolutely Um.

00:51:55.081 --> 00:52:14.967
You know you'd be surprised, brian, how much we choose um during our life, the situations we go through um, and why we put ourselves through those situations and believe it or not, there is.

00:52:14.967 --> 00:52:17.512
There are reasons for them.

00:52:17.512 --> 00:52:23.159
Some of them are karmic, but not all of them are Um.

00:52:23.159 --> 00:52:28.152
Some of them are to help others with their karma.

00:52:28.152 --> 00:52:30.021
Um.

00:52:30.021 --> 00:52:37.637
There there's so many reasons, um for why we go through certain things Um.

00:52:40.443 --> 00:52:44.972
So how much of life is planned and how much of life is is just random luck.

00:52:46.679 --> 00:52:48.746
There's almost no randomness, believe it or not.

00:52:48.746 --> 00:52:57.873
And and you know people don't like when I say that, um, but almost everything is planned.

00:52:57.873 --> 00:53:22.224
Um, you know love, which is the, the, the foundation of everything, okay, whether in this world or the spiritual world, it is perfect and it's harmonious, okay, and that never changes, the never changes.

00:53:22.224 --> 00:53:37.413
However, in this world, in this realm, this 3D human existence, we don't always see it that way because of of how we need to learn certain things.

00:53:37.413 --> 00:53:47.146
So certain things are presented to us in a way that we can understand and they don't always seem perfect or sweet or loving.

00:53:47.146 --> 00:53:53.324
But that's just love, fitting the experience to our understanding.

00:53:53.324 --> 00:54:21.286
So, for instance, here's a good example of that If I'm, if I'm walking and the ground suddenly drops off, but I don't see that the ground is going to drop off, so does love be its sweet, loving, beautiful self and say hey, be careful, because the grounds are getting ready to drop off?

00:54:21.286 --> 00:54:30.565
Or does love say yo, watch out, be careful, which one is going to get my attention.

00:54:31.882 --> 00:54:32.766
But the second one, yeah.

00:54:33.800 --> 00:54:37.909
Love is loving, because that's how I need to understand it.

00:54:37.909 --> 00:54:40.346
So that's how love works.

00:54:40.346 --> 00:54:45.690
It doesn't always seem loving, but it always is.

00:54:45.690 --> 00:55:00.889
It's just in ways that we have to understand and some things we make hard for ourselves, you know, depending on where we're at mentally, emotionally, et cetera.

00:55:00.889 --> 00:55:15.596
But so most of what we go through, believe it or not, is planned, and you'd be, you'd be amazed that even the little experiences that happen to us are planned.

00:55:15.596 --> 00:55:16.719
Yeah.

00:55:17.581 --> 00:55:23.916
That's the conclusion I'm starting to come to, and I know again people will say well, why would well?

00:55:23.916 --> 00:55:26.226
First of all, I guess the first question is who's planning it?

00:55:26.226 --> 00:55:28.246
And the second question is why would I plan it?

00:55:29.523 --> 00:55:31.902
And it is you, it is you, it is me.

00:55:31.902 --> 00:55:36.510
We have a lot of say in what goes on in our lives.

00:55:36.510 --> 00:55:39.065
Our soul does put it that way.

00:55:39.065 --> 00:55:45.447
When we're planning it, we have tremendous amount of say.

00:55:45.447 --> 00:56:19.355
Now there is a thing called divine wisdom and in other words, that divine wisdom, or that love will kind of step in sometimes and tailor situations in ways that we really need it and maybe that we didn't see fit to make ourselves experience.

00:56:19.355 --> 00:56:35.056
But that divine love, that divine wisdom will step in and tailor things for us in ways that we need to understand.

00:56:38.706 --> 00:56:43.163
Well, you know, you just made a couple of really important distinctions there, because you know the thing about.

00:56:43.163 --> 00:56:49.108
You said I think that our soul plans a lot for us, and so sometimes people say, well, why would I plan this?

00:56:49.108 --> 00:57:01.467
I think the way I've always put people is like I think you're planning it from your higher self, you're looking at from your higher, the higher perspective that this is good for me, almost kind of like a parent would to a child.

00:57:01.467 --> 00:57:13.942
You know, sometimes the parent will tell a child to do this or do that and the child's like, yeah, that's not really what I want to do, but the parents knows better and then tells the child out of love, this is the better thing for you.

00:57:15.144 --> 00:57:16.889
Absolutely, absolutely.

00:57:16.889 --> 00:57:31.288
And you have to remember something, brian when you're, when you are on the other side, you're seeing this much, everything, okay, but here you're only seeing this much.

00:57:31.288 --> 00:57:51.382
So when you're on that other side, when you're on the other side and looking at things through a 360 degree perspective, shall we say, you see the short and long term on everything, you see all sides.

00:57:51.382 --> 00:58:09.264
Here you're only seeing it basically from one side and that's kind of it, and so naturally, you know, since we're not getting the bigger picture here, things seem unfair, it doesn't?

00:58:09.264 --> 00:58:09.467
You know?

00:58:09.467 --> 00:58:13.588
Bad luck, no luck has very little to do with anything.

00:58:13.588 --> 00:58:16.686
The luck factor doesn't even play.

00:58:16.686 --> 00:58:26.672
It is, like I said, that divine wisdom that is seeing the whole bigger picture.

00:58:26.672 --> 00:58:35.391
You know, I talk about one of the one of the things I was shown.

00:58:35.391 --> 00:58:40.005
My guide showed me a couple of my lives and one of my lives.

00:58:40.065 --> 00:59:21.429
I was a very cruel teenager and fortunately I didn't live past being a teenager in one of these lives and I was in one of the Nordic countries, like Norway or Sweden, one of those type countries, but anyway, I loved inflicting pain and I did it to a lot of kids, my so-called friends, and it was very disheartening seeing that, but it was just something I just got such pleasure from doing.

00:59:21.429 --> 00:59:39.907
And in this life, I've had some very painful operations and I have a lot of scars, different scars, and a lot of them are permanent.

00:59:39.907 --> 00:59:46.108
Most of them are permanent, more so than your average person, shall we say.

00:59:46.108 --> 00:59:49.447
And let me tell you something, brian I earned those scars.

00:59:49.447 --> 00:59:51.565
I mean the pain that went behind them.

00:59:51.565 --> 01:00:10.804
I earned them and there was a connection, there's definitely a connection, between that teen that I was and this pain and these scars that I have in this life.

01:00:10.804 --> 01:00:17.248
Now, to your average one looker, you're saying, my God, you've been terribly unlucky.

01:00:17.248 --> 01:00:29.012
But no, the bigger picture is that this was something that really needed to be flushed out.

01:00:30.152 --> 01:00:30.594
Interesting.

01:00:30.594 --> 01:00:42.251
Okay, so when we talk about reincarnation, obviously you believe that reincarnation is true, but I've heard it also described that there is no time on the other side.

01:00:42.251 --> 01:00:44.405
So how to pass lives for them?

01:00:44.405 --> 01:00:44.887
To that.

01:00:45.800 --> 01:00:47.222
And they're not necessarily.

01:00:47.222 --> 01:00:58.186
We say past lives, but they're like concurrent, they are concurrent and they're in the now.

01:00:58.186 --> 01:01:10.523
So although we're saying past and I guess earth time, it would have been a past life in earth wise.

01:01:10.523 --> 01:01:26.681
But when I was on the other side seeing this, I experienced it almost as right next to the life that I was living.

01:01:26.681 --> 01:01:30.568
You get that?

01:01:30.748 --> 01:01:31.670
That's my understanding.

01:01:31.670 --> 01:01:32.753
Yeah, that's my understanding.

01:01:32.753 --> 01:01:43.864
That's why I wanted to see if you shared that, because we do talk about past lives and people say, well, this is happening because this happened before my understanding and this is from the Seth material.

01:01:43.864 --> 01:01:50.989
It kind of all overlaps and this life that we're living now also influences our other lives simultaneously.

01:01:51.510 --> 01:01:53.233
It does, it does.

01:01:53.233 --> 01:02:02.972
And off, that same exact point, but just slightly different the soul.

01:02:02.972 --> 01:02:08.628
The soul can and does send out offshoots into other lives.

01:02:08.628 --> 01:02:22.211
Now, like while I'm here I'm existing elsewhere and experiencing other stuff, and not just necessarily in a life.

01:02:22.211 --> 01:02:36.753
But there's all different types of worlds, ryan, it's not just human type worlds, there's all different types of worlds, existences, and our soul is experienced in those.

01:02:36.753 --> 01:02:43.563
So, yeah, yeah, it's all concurrent.

01:02:43.563 --> 01:02:47.152
All now, all now.

01:02:48.201 --> 01:02:58.527
That's a hard thing for us to grasp, and I keep coming across that concept that there is no time or even space on the other side, that it's all now and it's all here.

01:02:58.527 --> 01:03:02.347
It is, and our brains make up time while we're here.

01:03:03.000 --> 01:03:04.304
We're linear thinkers.

01:03:04.304 --> 01:03:07.726
We have to think linearly.

01:03:07.726 --> 01:03:21.188
That's a word, but in reality it is all at one, all at one, all right, it's all a constant now.

01:03:21.188 --> 01:03:30.001
And you know, when I went through the void, that was even impressed upon me even more it was.

01:03:30.001 --> 01:03:31.764
I saw.

01:03:31.764 --> 01:03:41.400
The information I got while I went through the void would literally blow your mind.

01:03:41.400 --> 01:03:53.882
But I experienced it all simultaneously and understood every bit of it during my time in the void.

01:03:53.882 --> 01:04:11.353
But when I came back from the void, it was like Like it was mind blowing because you know, I'm a linear thinker and I had to take this and put it here.

01:04:11.353 --> 01:04:13.983
You know, thinking wise, put this here.

01:04:13.983 --> 01:04:23.318
You know, I even had to write down things because it was just all on top of each other, but I had no problem while I was in it.

01:04:23.318 --> 01:04:25.094
Yeah, I think it was.

01:04:25.094 --> 01:04:25.737
I mean spiritually.

01:04:26.710 --> 01:04:30.411
I think it was I and Simon that said it's like time is what keeps everything from happening all at once.

01:04:31.175 --> 01:04:34.577
So right, I'm just saying it isn't our human experience.

01:04:34.769 --> 01:04:36.456
We have this experience linearly.

01:04:36.456 --> 01:04:39.097
So we so we learned cause and effect.

01:04:39.097 --> 01:04:45.956
So we learned that this causes this, causes this, but on the other side it's kind of all kind of jumbled together.

01:04:47.449 --> 01:04:47.751
It is.

01:04:47.751 --> 01:04:55.175
You know, I had an experience also once and this is definitely in the book but my guide stopped time.

01:04:55.175 --> 01:05:08.864
I really stopped time on a visit and everything around me just froze during their visit.

01:05:08.864 --> 01:05:18.384
And you know, at the time, while I was elated at seeing my guide again and and what had happened.

01:05:18.384 --> 01:05:30.186
But afterwards I kind of understood did they freeze time or just put me in the now?

01:05:30.186 --> 01:05:32.556
Do you know what I'm saying?

01:05:32.757 --> 01:05:32.958
Yes.

01:05:33.889 --> 01:05:35.836
So maybe they didn't really freeze time.

01:05:35.836 --> 01:05:40.579
They just took me out of my sense of time and I was in the now.

01:05:41.099 --> 01:05:44.416
Right, right, yeah, I'd like to.

01:05:44.416 --> 01:05:58.702
We're running short on time but there's several questions on asking, because you cover some really interesting topics in your book and I want to just ask you real quickly if you could answer about, like, connection with our pets, because people are really have strong connections with our pets.

01:05:58.702 --> 01:05:59.873
What is, what's that about?

01:06:00.809 --> 01:06:04.219
Listen real quick, you're, you can edit all this correct.

01:06:04.929 --> 01:06:05.231
I can.

01:06:06.730 --> 01:06:07.713
Is it easy for you to do.

01:06:07.713 --> 01:06:10.275
I don't typically edit, but I can.

01:06:10.275 --> 01:06:13.105
Okay, yeah, that's fine.

01:06:13.105 --> 01:06:17.315
That's fine, because I did have to need to step away for about three minutes.

01:06:17.315 --> 01:06:19.840
Oh sure, yeah, do you mind that?

01:06:19.920 --> 01:06:21.483
No, I no, let me just pause the recording.

01:06:22.090 --> 01:06:22.932
Oh, and did you start?

01:06:22.952 --> 01:06:24.838
it All right great, there we go.

01:06:25.990 --> 01:06:26.291
So yeah.

01:06:26.855 --> 01:06:40.054
I wanted to ask you about, like, our connection with our pets, because a lot of us we have very, very special connection with our pets and you know, I know there's some debate like do animals have souls, which I think is a silly debate, but some people do, so what are your thoughts on that?

01:06:41.331 --> 01:06:54.501
Yes, they do, they definitely do, but their souls are different, you know, and there's and what people don't understand is, you know, how can I say this?

01:06:54.501 --> 01:06:58.416
The human soul is not the only type of soul.

01:06:58.416 --> 01:07:02.496
There's all different kind of souls.

01:07:02.496 --> 01:07:10.554
There is an animal kingdom and there's animal souls.

01:07:10.554 --> 01:07:22.996
So I don't know if you, if you do, believe that they have souls, but I got to tell you they do and they're not like ours.

01:07:22.996 --> 01:07:26.496
But yes, they do have souls.

01:07:26.496 --> 01:07:28.875
And will we see our pets again?

01:07:28.875 --> 01:07:29.978
Absolutely.

01:07:31.181 --> 01:07:34.458
Yeah Well, I've had three dogs and I know that.

01:07:34.458 --> 01:07:35.541
I know they have souls.

01:07:35.541 --> 01:07:39.119
Just if you've ever had a dog, you don't believe dogs have souls.

01:07:39.119 --> 01:07:39.592
I don't know.

01:07:39.592 --> 01:07:41.934
I don't know what kind of a person that you are.

01:07:42.355 --> 01:07:43.157
They're just different.

01:07:43.157 --> 01:07:47.545
That's all they're just different types, but they do have souls.

01:07:47.806 --> 01:07:48.570
Yeah, Absolutely you.

01:07:48.570 --> 01:07:50.617
I think you have an answer to what autism is.

01:07:50.617 --> 01:07:52.313
So what is autism?

01:07:53.969 --> 01:08:04.016
So I don't discuss autism, mainly because we don't have really time to go into it and I never want to treat it casually.

01:08:04.016 --> 01:08:05.510
Okay, but I will.

01:08:05.510 --> 01:08:32.255
I will just say this Autism and I do cover it much, much more in the book, but autism is, let's just say that autistic people look through a different lens than you and I and it's a.

01:08:32.255 --> 01:08:44.878
It's a different spiritual type of lens and at times it's a extremely beautiful type of lens.

01:08:44.878 --> 01:08:54.019
But just like you know these glasses, I see one way.

01:08:54.019 --> 01:08:57.283
If I take them all, I can hardly see.

01:08:57.283 --> 01:09:01.841
No, but that's not comparable to autism.

01:09:01.841 --> 01:09:09.546
But in other words, they're just looking through a different spiritual perspective.

01:09:10.186 --> 01:09:14.336
Yeah, that makes perfect sense to me, and I refer people to the books.

01:09:14.336 --> 01:09:15.234
I know you do cover it.

01:09:15.234 --> 01:09:16.573
You do cover it in the book.

01:09:17.095 --> 01:09:24.698
Yeah, I just don't talk about it casually or briefly, because out of respect.

01:09:26.180 --> 01:09:28.083
Yeah, yeah, that's, that's perfectly fine.

01:09:28.083 --> 01:09:28.904
That's a great answer.

01:09:28.904 --> 01:09:30.194
What is?

01:09:30.194 --> 01:09:31.417
What are your thoughts on God?

01:09:34.975 --> 01:09:41.431
There is no one God guy, it's.

01:09:41.431 --> 01:09:48.050
It's God, is of all, all in all, the.

01:09:48.050 --> 01:10:19.697
I call it the source, because that's what I saw the source of all, and to break it, try to break it down and confine it to like one being, so to speak, we are all part of the source, we are all God, we are all a part of the fabric of love, yeah, which, and love is all in all you know.

01:10:19.697 --> 01:10:24.278
So that's, that's my take.

01:10:25.332 --> 01:10:30.774
Yeah, you know it's interesting because I've been around for a while and everybody's you know, trying to define God.

01:10:30.774 --> 01:10:40.061
And we go grow up in Sunday school and God says, you know, old white guy in the sky, and then we go to the point where people said, well, god is, there is no God, or you know.

01:10:40.061 --> 01:10:51.962
Then Star Wars, again going back to fiction, you know you've got the force and we talk about source and stuff like that and I'm coming to the conclusion there's no being God.

01:10:51.962 --> 01:10:56.314
And I was reading something the other day and they said you keep looking for an object and God is not an object.

01:10:56.314 --> 01:11:04.420
So God is everything, it's the source, it's the, it's the, it's the potential that we all, we all come from.

01:11:04.420 --> 01:11:05.975
So I think that makes sense.

01:11:05.975 --> 01:11:10.140
And you say there's no politics or religion on the other side.

01:11:10.140 --> 01:11:17.756
And I was looking at your Amazon page and I was looking through the reviews and some some one was like who?

01:11:17.756 --> 01:11:19.301
Everybody gave us book five stars.

01:11:19.301 --> 01:11:24.782
I don't give a five stars because there's a bunch of liberal, progressive utopia stuff in here.

01:11:25.650 --> 01:11:26.997
And I thought that was really interesting.

01:11:26.997 --> 01:11:27.992
So how?

01:11:27.992 --> 01:11:30.578
How would you react to that comment?

01:11:32.229 --> 01:11:33.716
Just like a reacting male.

01:11:33.716 --> 01:11:41.610
Oh yeah, I, you know, when I first read that I had to read it again because I was like what the?

01:11:41.610 --> 01:11:46.722
You know this person, um, I don't know how.

01:11:46.722 --> 01:11:59.456
You literally, um, you know, you can say a near death experience is a liberal experience, but fine, because that's how they interpreted it.

01:12:02.032 --> 01:12:21.957
Um, when you're on the other side and like I say, um, you know, there there's no politics on the other sides in the spiritual realm, because there's no opposing sides, okay, so, so, literally, there's no opposition to anything, everything is harmonious, all one.

01:12:22.810 --> 01:12:26.300
So there is no politics and there's no religion.

01:12:26.300 --> 01:13:06.024
And I, that, I guess, is the liberal, whatever, uh, that they're talking about, um, but if you think that you can confine the realm of love, spiritual, al spiritual spirituality, harmony, perfection, peace, uh, purity, if you think you can confine that into one religion, um, no, it just can't be done when you're talking about all in all.

01:13:06.024 --> 01:13:32.618
So, no, there's, you know, but, but I have major respect for religions because I saw they're necessary and I put that in the book, and so for that person to actually, um, you know, say all that stuff and then still read the chapter on religion where I give major props to religion, uh, because a lot of people need religion and it helps them.

01:13:32.618 --> 01:13:45.341
It helps that a lot of people I can't ascribe to any, um, just because of what I saw but a lot of people do and it has helped them tremendously, made them better people.

01:13:45.341 --> 01:13:49.640
So, yeah, that was, that was, uh, I don't know.

01:13:50.350 --> 01:13:50.891
I thought that was.

01:13:50.891 --> 01:13:52.117
I thought it was funny too.

01:13:52.117 --> 01:13:54.618
I thought it was really interesting.

01:13:54.618 --> 01:14:00.251
But as you were talking, it reminded me of the song by John Lennon, the song Imagine, which you know.

01:14:00.251 --> 01:14:01.414
Imagine there's no heaven.

01:14:01.414 --> 01:14:02.738
Imagine there's no religion.

01:14:02.738 --> 01:14:04.172
Imagine, you know there's no.

01:14:04.172 --> 01:14:06.784
You know all the things that divide us here.

01:14:06.784 --> 01:14:10.341
And people misinterpret that song because what do you so?

01:14:10.341 --> 01:14:13.092
He, you know, john Lennon, was an atheist because he said there's no heaven.

01:14:13.092 --> 01:14:14.074
And what do you mean?

01:14:14.074 --> 01:14:15.319
There's no religion, you know.

01:14:15.319 --> 01:14:17.534
And he's like these are things that divide us here.

01:14:17.534 --> 01:14:18.912
And you and I talked.

01:14:18.912 --> 01:14:21.559
We started off talking about race earlier on.

01:14:21.779 --> 01:14:22.060
Yes.

01:14:22.890 --> 01:14:23.954
And there's two different levels.

01:14:23.954 --> 01:14:26.376
On the other side, there's there's no race.

01:14:26.376 --> 01:14:32.581
On this side, we have divided by race, and so I've accepted that I am perceived as a black person.

01:14:32.581 --> 01:14:49.737
I do have racial pride and I think our people have been through a lot which has made us resilient people, strong people, and I'm I'm proud of that, you know, while I'm here, because that's part of being a human being on this planet, you know, at this time, but ultimately, that's not who any of us are.

01:14:51.332 --> 01:15:11.154
Hey, absolutely, you know, and that person who is very bigoted here will typically choose to come back as a race that they're not crazy about now, you know they'll, you know.

01:15:11.154 --> 01:15:31.390
So I mean, you got to be careful of your hatred because you know that's, and if you hate on the LGBTQ, you might find yourself back as as a person who loves the same sex, you know.

01:15:31.390 --> 01:15:51.770
So I mean, and that's another thing I do have a section in the book on LGBTQ and I know that was another criticism that that person wrote, yeah, about the liberal agenda, because I can't, I'm not going to lie and I'm.

01:15:51.770 --> 01:15:57.121
You know, there is none of that hatred or division over there.

01:15:57.121 --> 01:15:57.882
There isn't.

01:15:57.882 --> 01:16:02.434
So, yes, it's here, but it's not over there, and that's not what I saw.

01:16:02.434 --> 01:16:08.082
So if you want to say that's a liberal agenda, fine, but you know.

01:16:09.011 --> 01:16:27.061
Well, it's interesting once you start to believe in reincarnation and there's a, there's a song by Logic, the rapper, and I've ever heard this and he does a little piece with Neil deGrasse Tyson and this guy is killed and he's talking to God and he's going through his life and everything and he says, well, I'm going to send you back and you're going to be.

01:16:27.061 --> 01:16:31.296
You know, you're going to be this big shot, you're going to have all this land and blah, blah, blah.

01:16:31.296 --> 01:16:34.234
And there's a black guy and he goes and you're going to own slaves.

01:16:34.234 --> 01:16:34.515
He goes.

01:16:34.515 --> 01:16:35.470
What I'm going to own?

01:16:35.470 --> 01:16:37.377
You know, it's like no, no, I can't do that.

01:16:38.130 --> 01:16:49.020
So it's a, it's a comical play on this idea that you know, once you really see that we're all, we all can reincarnate as anything, then you have to be very careful about what you do.

01:16:49.020 --> 01:16:56.194
And you did mention karma and I do want to come back to that maybe as we wrap up, because what's your, what's your perception of karma?

01:16:56.194 --> 01:16:59.047
You said you might find yourself back as an LGBTQ person.

01:16:59.047 --> 01:17:04.001
Does that mean someone's going to send you back as an L, as like a punishment, or how does that work?

01:17:04.970 --> 01:17:16.755
No, you, you, basically you and your guide will basically kind of do your life itinerary and you'll decide that.

01:17:16.755 --> 01:17:22.317
But here's the thing with karma Karma is not necessarily bad or good.

01:17:22.317 --> 01:17:30.435
It's just that you have to understand the, the universe, love, whatever you want to call it, god, the source, whatever.

01:17:30.435 --> 01:17:34.752
There's perfection, okay.

01:17:34.752 --> 01:17:42.222
And so when we and everything you know is is perfect, balance, okay.

01:17:43.029 --> 01:18:09.971
So when we kind of have an imbalance in an area, you're going to have to balance that out and so say, for instance, I just can't stand, I don't know whoever or whatever, and I have an unhealthy imbalance towards a certain group of people, okay, you have to balance that out.

01:18:09.971 --> 01:18:19.338
So, whether you come back as one of them, or or have a child, that's one of them, okay.

01:18:19.338 --> 01:18:30.439
However it meant, however you choose to manifest it, you'll do that in order to balance out, right, that imbalance, right, okay.

01:18:30.439 --> 01:18:32.042
So that is basically karma.

01:18:32.042 --> 01:18:39.259
So it's not necessarily good or bad, it's just everything will balance eventually.

01:18:39.259 --> 01:18:58.275
Yeah, our soul, our soul, is perfect, balance perfect, and so in all its experiences and all its um existences, it will seek to keep that balance, however it does it, you know.

01:18:58.275 --> 01:19:05.502
So that's, that's basically what karma is balance.

01:19:06.912 --> 01:19:11.042
So I do appreciate you being so generous with your time today and doing this.

01:19:11.042 --> 01:19:12.939
It's been great getting to know you.

01:19:12.939 --> 01:19:14.850
Can people reach out to you?

01:19:14.850 --> 01:19:16.274
I know you have a YouTube channel.

01:19:16.274 --> 01:19:18.033
