For those who want to book a guided meditation with me...
Finally I have some free time during the week for one or two people per week to do a guided meditation.
For those fans of "Divine Councils in the Afterlife" or "Architecture of the Afterlife" it will be a bit like that. We will do a zoom call, takes at least an hour, maybe two - and there is no guarantee that one will "get anywhere."
TO BOOK A SESSION, SEND ME AN EMAIL AT MARTINIPRODS@GMAIL.COM
I recommend doing this kind of thing only if you've already done "guided meditation" in the past. Could be with a yoga teachers, could be in a classroom setting - but basically it's the idea of doing a "meditation" where one speaks aloud what what they are imagining, what they are seeing.
If one has done hypnotherapy or had a hypnosis session it will be easier.
If one has not done any hypnotherapy and has done no meditation in the past, it will be more difficult (but not impossible.) The idea is to "close one's eyes" and imagine some nice place on the planet, picture that place, and then speak aloud what one sees.
"I'm sitting in a park in England - it's a place I used to like to go." And then describe the trees, the people walking by, etc. The idea is to free associate, and get used to speaking aloud about what one sees.
And then I can pick up from there and start to ask specific questions.
If one has read "Divine Councils in the Afterlife" or listened to it on Audible they have a fairly good idea of what to expect.
If someone wants to "speak to their loved one" who is no longer on the planet, I recommend booking a session with Jennifer Shaffer (JenniferShaffer.com) or someone like Kimberly Babcock. Both are friends and are highly adept at mediumship. Needless to say, Jennifer and I work together weekly on the podcast Hacking The Afterlife.
If someone wants to know about their previous lifetimes and access other details, I recommend Scott De Tamble in Los Angeles, LightBetweenLives.com - or Paul Aurand in NYC. There are many very talented hypnotherapists, and I would suggest that taking the time to do a four to six hour session may result in the most benefits.
However, I am skilled at this shorter version - a guided meditation where people can speak to one or two individuals that are related to them, their guides, their teachers, sometimes their council members. I tend to ask the same questions to people, but it is off the top of my head, so there's no set script to follow.
If you're interested in booking a session, I suggest it will take one to two hours, and since I use zoom, I will be able to provide an MP4 of the session afterwards. For those interested in signing up for this, or for more information, you can reach me at MartiniProds@gmail.com - and we will figure out a fee, as well as a time frame where we can have this adventure together.
Thanks!
(Price will be based upon time required, other factors, something I haven't pinned down yet.)
Put it this way; if someone on the flipside is insisting that you book a session with me - as some have told me that is the case, then shoot me an email at

What was left out of the book AFTER by Dr. Greyson
A fascinating talk at IANDS from Dr. Greyson in August of 2023 discussing the research that he had to leave out of his book AFTER about his career and work at the University of Virginia, focusing on 5 topics that were left out of the book. "LOVE IS EVERY THING."

Talking about why it's hard for people to accept the flipside exists
Talking about why it’s hard for people to accept the flipside exists
I moderate a forum on Quora called “Hacking the Afterlife.” There have been over 50 million views. Here was a post about why it’s so hard for people to accept there might be an afterlife we don’t comprehend.
Well, think about it.
If what the studies from UVA Medical school DOPS show — that consciousness is not confined to the brain, then the model of how we navigate the planet is flawed.
Start with something obvious. A crime is committed. Perhaps someone dies from the event. The person is put on trial. They were drunk, or unaware of what they were doing. But then, before they are sentenced, the person who was killed comes to them and says “You weren’t at fault. Don’t blame yourself. This was something I worked out in advance. I’m okay, I’m home. I know you’re suffering from what happened, but you don’t need to. I’m okay.”
This is the kind of thing that would upend law enforcement, how we function as a society. And it’s justifiable to say “That’s insane! That cannot be! That’s not how things work!” If someone stood up in court and claimed that their victim came to them and told them “I’m okay, I’m home” they’d be laughed out of court.
Wouldn’t they?
Well, as noted in the book ITS A WONDERFUL AFTERLIFE, I was approached by an attorney in a Western state who told me the following. In her practice as a lawyer defending second degree murderers (drunk driving mostly, but other accidents, mayhem) her clients were frequently “visited by their victims and told that everything was okay.”
(From the chapter: I CAN HELP YOU in the book IT’S A WONDERFUL AFTERLIFE BOOK TWO)
I asked her how many clients she was referring to. She replied “Well, all of them. Over the past twenty years, either they had a dream, or a visitation — where they awoke and saw their victim standing in their room saying “I’m okay, I’m home, you don’t need to beat yourself up over my death.” I asked the attorney if the clients believed what they were seeing.
She said “No.” Because that’s not in the lexicon. It’s not reported. They all were completely freaked out by it, some took their own lives, some went into drug use or alcohol, some went into religious conversions. None of them could process it.
Clearly it’s not something one can argue in court. “Your honor, my client says that his victim came through to say he was okay.”
However, it did happen in Seattle. A killer — a murderer of a family was in court, and was convicted of the murder. The jury was deciding the death penalty. When it came time for his statement, he said “I know this will sound crazy. But I had a visitation from my victims. They came to see me in my cell, and told me to tell you that they want me to live out my days in prison, because then at the very least I can try to help other people, try to pay my debt to society. They told me that they were okay, and this was part of a life plan that I wasn’t aware of.”
One juror found the fellow believable, and that juror’s vote gave this fellow life in prison instead of the death penalty.
Which frankly, is a ticket back home. Sending someone home before their time is what we do in our society — we logically feel that justice must include them suffering for their actions — only what the data, research and footage indicate is that “no one dies.” So gassing them, shooting them, electrocuting them may cause temporary pain — but they return home. They have a life review where they experience all the trauma they caused first hand — and future lifetimes may be affected by those actions — but they aren’t suffering. They’re home.
So that’s one reason why people dismiss the data. They don’t want to hear it.
But there’s something more important involved — which is that people sign up for their lifetime to learn or teach lessons. And the lessons they’re going to learn or teach may depend upon the belief that their religion is sacrosanct, that their belief system is unique, or that their disbelief system is accurate. That’s how humans spend years trying to cure illness — after all if they considered that “life goes on” they wouldn’t be in such a rush to save the life of their patient. Because they would be aware that “they may have planned this illness to learn from it, so they could be a doctor in a future lifetime.”
I recommend not trying to convince anyone of anything.
One can say “I’ve read Dr. Greyson’s book AFTER on his decades of near death case studies;” he was a skeptic who realized his bias was blocking his ability to see the data clearly. He’s aware now that consciousness isn’t confined to the brain. Dr. Tucker’s book BEFORE based on fifteen hundred historically accurate reincarnation cases, as Tucker studied with Ian Stevenson who founded the DOPS lab with Xerox money — and Carol Bowman his fellow student who wrote CHILDREN’S PAST LIVES — both are scientists who use the scientific method and protocols to investigate these cases.
Both of them are now aware that consciousness is not confined to the brain.
So one can share these books — and shrug while saying “who knows?”
It’s really not up to anyone, myself included, to change someone’s chosen path.
The reason I created this forum HACKING THE AFTERLIFE is because some people are suffering immeasurably from the loss of loved ones, and I have seen people turn that around using hypnotherapy, mediumship or meditation. Seeing their loved one, or talking to them, or learning new information from them (as documented in DIVINE COUNCILS IN THE AFTERLIFE) is a life changing arena. It’s a place where we can share data, research or personal experiences with the flipside.
I could say “have them watch SURVIVING DEATH on Netflix where they visit the DOPS lab, or watch AFTER DEATH where they examine near death events with scientists, or look at FLIPSIDE, TALKING TO BILL PAXTON or HACKING THE AFTERLIFE on Amazon. All demonstrate methods for people to access loved ones on their own.
But God forbid people would be forced to consider something they don’t want to consider.
Not everyone buys a book and reads the ending first, not everyone buys a ticket for a play and standing in line wants to hear “how it’s going to end.” Part of the joy, the beauty, is in the living it, experiencing it, learning the lessons we’ve signed up for.
We all are walking each other home — whether one wants to believe that or preach that is an individual choice. My advice is; leave some breadcrumbs if needed, but otherwise, enjoy the show.

FLIPSIDE CLIP OF DUANE VISIT ON ALL SAINTS DAY - COURTESY THE DEDMORE FAMILY
I moderate a forum on Quora called "Hacking the Afterlife." Sometimes people send a private message about something that has occurred. A few days ago, I got an email about some unusual footage that was on a security camera above the garage, or what appeared to be a "visitation" from a beloved father who had just passed away. I looked over the footage, and having been in court as an expert witness to security cam footage, in my opinion, it's genuine.
I've seen other footage from the same camera later in the evening with no light in it - based on how the shadows appear, and how the light creates no shadow of its own, how one of the boys appears to see it, the way it was presented to me, seeing other cars pass normally in the background with no reflective surfaces - I would offer my "expert" opinion that it is genuine security cam footage.
As fans of the Hacking the Afterlife podcast know, sometimes I seek assistance from medium/intuitive Jennifer Shaffer who works with law enforcement agencies nationwide. Jennifer and I have been recording our conversations with the flipside for 8 years (four books, BACKSTAGE PASS TO THE FLIPSIDE 1, 2 and 3, and TUNING INTO THE AFTERLIFE) a 2 years as a podcast. During the podcast I brought it up.
In our New Year's day podcast (2024) we spoke to a number of people offstage, but as an experiment, I invited "Duane" to chat with us. I have never met him or his family - and I had just viewed the footage the night before and asked his wife what his first name was.
I asked if he wanted to chat with us. Jennifer reported "He says it is him in the video." (She has not seen the video, and had not seen it when we recorded the podcast.) She then mentions his two children - as well as "his family of six." (Which I learned later was accurate.)
His wife has confirmed Jennifer's accuracy and wrote; "Jennifer has a real gift and I am so grateful that I was directed somehow to reach out to you. To be honest with you I had never watched or listened to your podcast until you responded to my email."
There are fifteen hours of footage of this light disc moving in the front yard, and is apparently seen by one of the boys. This is a 5 minute version if someone wants further info, license the footage, or write a story about this event, the email for inquiries is dedmoremichelle@gmail.com
This is not something she expected, had not sent it to me to publicize the loss of her husband and the boys father in any way. After discussing it with her, the main idea of posting it is that it might help someone who is suffering over the loss of a loved one, "to allow for the possibility they might still exist and be able to communicate with them" Something I've been doing for fifteen years, and was startled to hear directly from Duane that he had created the light, and how he discusses how he did so. It's one thing to see footage of something like this, and another to hear from the source how they crafted it.
This was filmed three days before his funeral, on "All Saints Day."
Ironic and very touching. (We do have loved ones who keep an eye on us.)
If one wants to share data, research or experiences with the flipside, they can do so on our forum Hacking the Afterlife on Quora. https://hackingtheafterlife.quora.com/
Thanks for tuning in.

I absolutely loved this book. I am actually going to be reading it again. It is amazing, it is astounding it is eye-opening to your core... As a young girl my parents took me to church, and I never necessarily believed in what the Bible had to say, it sounded too corny, too fairy tale like for me.. I have never been one to believe what I've been Told unless I've done the research myself... Whether you believe in Jesus Christ or not I urge you to read this book. It was remarkable but chapter 10 by far was my favorite.. I can honestly say that I'm a believer now of Jesus and I do believe by reading this book it has changed my life in a short period of time..

A compelling read worth opening your mind and heart to the possibility of its truth filling its pages. As Issa reminds those who find their way to this story that it isn't about correcting history, it is about remembering what the original message has always been... LOVE and the way to the path is within each of us to find by going into our hearts. Rich does a fabulous job researching what is shared through past life regression hypnosis sessions and through mediums to find the treasured gems of validations pointing to a truth that has always been present to find. Thank you for being the storyteller needed in today's world to remind us!

Panthers’ Hayden Hurst diagnosed with form of amnesia amid concussion protocol, father says
Carolina Panthers tight end Hayden Hurst — who entered concussion protocol nearly one month ago — was diagnosed with post-traumatic amnesia by an independent neurologist, Hurst’s father, Jerry, said Wednesday. Hayden Hurst said Thursday that the concussion isn’t career ending and hopes he’ll be back on the field this season.
Post-traumatic amnesia is a condition that develops after an injury and can involve multiple forms of amnesia, according to the Cleveland Clinic.
“(Hayden Hurst) has been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Amnesia by an independent neurologist as a result of the hit he took in Chicago November 9,” Jerry Hurst wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter. “Slow recovery, don’t know when he’ll be back. Prayers appreciated!”
Hayden Hurst made his first public remarks about the concussion Thursday.
“I appreciate everyone reaching out (and) checking on me,” the Panthers tight end posted. “I suffered a pretty nasty concussion against the Bears a few weeks ago (and) don’t remember up to (four) hours after the game. Scary situation but the Panthers have been incredible walking me through this process.”
In a second post, the tight end added, “While it was scary, it is NOT career ending. I’m starting my return to play this week, so fingers crossed I make it back for the last few weeks! God Bless & Keep Pounding !!!!”

FROM BACKSTAGE PASS TO THE FLIPSIDE BOOK THREE
(Chapter Ten, Part two)
“ABLE WAS I ERE I SAW ELBA”
NAPOLEON STANLEY KUBRICK
Another day, another trip to the fieldhouse on the flipside. In this session, I decided to see if I could call upon a historical person, someone I knew that I had no possible connection to. The questions I asked him were related to questions posed to me by an Oscar award winning screenwriter. My questions are in italics, Jennifer Shaffer’s replies are in bold.
Rich: I talked to somebody yesterday who we interviewed in your office. My old boss, the screenwriter Robert Towne; friend of Luana’s.
Jennifer: He came to mind.
I told him what we were doing and I said if you could talk to anyone on the flipside who would you like to talk to?
His dad just came through but I know that’s not who he wanted to talk to.
I told him “You can talk to anybody.” I’ll tell you this, it’s a historical figure.
The first person that showed up was Abraham Lincoln, but I don’t think it was him.
Well perhaps Abraham can help us. Luana knows who this is, because it was who I was talking to.
Was he a soldier during the Civil War?
He was a soldier but not during our Civil War. I’ll tell you that he wasn’t from this country.
Winston Churchill?
No, longer ago. If I give you a hint, you’ll get it. 200 years ago my dear. I have to think about this — we normally have someone in our class who knows someone who knows someone. Luana has to ask her friend.
(Jennifer aside) When was Napoleon?
That’s it. (Ding!) He was around 1820.
Napoleon! How many tries did that take?
It doesn’t matter. (For those keeping score, it was five.)
It’s frustrating. Finally they showed me Napoleon.
Who showed you Napoleon?
Luana.
Can we talk to him directly?
Um… He’s a little bit of a shit. Give me a second. Yeah, I guess we can. Mmm-hmm.
What do you see in your minds’ eye?
He’s actually kind of handsome.
Can you see his face?
I see his lashes — he’s actually quite handsome.
Can you touch his hand?
There’s something on his hand, felt like there’s a wound on his hand.
Let’s ask him — how did you get this wound my friend?
It feels like psoriasis — everything was cracking.
Look around the class; is this unusual for you to be here?
He says, “Yes it is.” He says he was here like 3 times before.
So you recognize a few people in this group?
He said, “Yes.”
So you guys in our class that know him, can you help?
(Jennifer aside) They are.
Mr. Napoleon — I apologize for having to take time out of your day, but I have some questions for you.
I keep getting … based upon the paintings I’ve seen of him — he had lighter eyes.
Let’s ask him — what color are your eyes?
They’re blue.
(Note: He had fine white teeth, which he was proud. His nose was slightly curved, with a “sharp and delicate modelling, [but] was less prominent than one is inclined to suppose from the evidence of his portraits.” His eyes, deep-set, were reportedly gray or gray-blue.” Wikipedia.)
They’re dark on the outer iris and blue inside.
Who was there to greet you when crossed over?
He says, “His mother.” He showed me there were 2 days he was going in and out of consciousness.
What were you ill from?
I want to say it was something around here (gestures) in the stomach.
Was that natural issue, or was that something given to you that you died from?
I felt like it was… transmitted. I also got an image of the plague. I don’t know what that means.
Who transmitted that into your body?
Felt like it was in the water.
So let’s talk about that — did someone administer that stuff in the water, or was it natural from the place you were?
“It was not natural,” he says.
So somebody put it in your water or food?
He says, “Yes; felt like a drink.”
Tell Jennifer what it was.
He says, “It was poison.”
Someone in class, can you put it in her mind what kind of poison that was and who administered it?
“Someone very close to him — first I got a female, then I got someone who was trying to overrule him. Felt like somebody he trusted, like a captain or something.”
A man?
Yes, but maybe it was the nurse that administered it.
I’m going to ask you about a woman who was there when you died.
He’s telling me Serafina. Sounds like Serafina.
I’d like to ask you about Betsy Balcombe.
She was a child. It felt like there were three kids. It felt like there were three kids associated with Betsy. She was like 9 when she met him.
That’s about right.
(Note: This was a question that Robert Towne the screenwriter asked me. He said “If you talk to Napoleon, ask him about Betsy Balcombe. I’m asking this question on my old boss’ behalf. From the historical record, Betsy was 12. She lived on St. Helena with her two siblings and befriended Napoleon at age 12.)
(Jennifer aside) She could actually “see” — she was clairvoyant.
What makes you say that?
I saw information coming from the heavens (waves her hand)
Napoleon, was Betsy giving you messages from the flipside? Or were you friends?
“Yes,” he’s saying he protected her. He was like a mom to a child, brother and sister, he protected her.
It’s reported your last words were you reporting for duty.
Yes. He saw his horse.
(Note: Reportedly, Napoleon’s last words were, “France. L’armée. Tête d’armée. Joséphine (“France, the army, head of the army, Joséphine”). I noted in “Flipside” that it sounds like he’s reporting for duty, and then sees the love of his life.)
There was a woman you had a long relationship with.
16… like 16 years…
(Note: Napoleon married Josephine, the widow of a man killed during the reign of terror, they were together as lovers and then married for 16 years. She died in 1814, he died 7 years later in 1821.)
They said you called out her name. Her name was Josephine.
Sara Josephine — which is my sister’s name — Serafina. That’s why I was hearing Serafina.
Let’s talk about your journey — have you incarnated since?
No. I saw a picture of (current President) and started freaking out, then a picture of Hitler.
I suspect you are talking about these individuals in terms of the negative energy they represent. Were you part of that energy?
He said, “Yes.”
What was up with you and Russia? Is that the Trump connection?
He says, “Yes.”
Millions died while you tried to conquer Russia, what were you doing?
He said, “I was trying to take over the world.”
What could you possibly gain?
He says “In his demented mind he thought it would bring more peace under one rule.” He made a poof sound.
(Note: A very French sound to make. The Italians say “Boh” and the French say “Beouf.” Means “what can I say?”)
That’s very French. He did have a lot of ego, is he still carrying that around?
He says “No more than Prince.”
(Note: Hilarious comment. Prince shows up often in our sessions. Always very helpful.)
Touche’ — okay, what actor might represent you on the planet?
Joe Pesci.
(Note: Would have been great if he said Joaquin Phoenix, but I think he’s closer to accuracy here in terms of height and demeanor.)
Were you Etruscan? Like Danny DeVito, they were notoriously short.
He says, “They were well bred. No; it was like his father’s father that was short. Somebody ruined the gene pool,” he said. Why is Joe Pesci showing up? He’s showing me he had Joe Pesci’s attitude as depicted in movies; killing people. Now he’s showing me a screenwriter, how they try to take over the world with movies. He says “I had a lot of blood (that was) shed, more people died. It’s easier to make movies where people die and they don’t bleed.”
I’m aware a couple of filmmakers have tried to make a film about you.
He knows that. Who was the guy that was in the “Ten Commandments?”
Cecil B Demille?
He said, “He’s over here.”
Have we talked to Stanley Kubrick yet?
I don’t know who that is. We’re not done with Napoleon!
It’s okay, is Stanley around?
Yeah, he is. He says “He’s a step ahead of you.”
Stanley; this is Napoleon. You wrote a long movie about this fellow.
(Jennifer aside) I asked him “Did you get the story right?” and he said “No… the ending was wrong. That’s why there were blocks about getting it made.”
The ending was wrong? You mean the truth about Napoleon being poisoned?
“Yes. They always wanted it to be an enemy but it was his best friend.”
Okay, I think I know who that is — the guy who invited him to St. Helena.
He said, “Yes.”
Here you are talking to Stanley who wanted to make a movie about you — and Luana’s friend Jack wanted to make a film about you…
Jack Nicholson.
(Ding!) That is correct. And yet Jack appeared in another one of Stanley’s films.
(Jennifer aside” Was that the “redrum” movie?
Very good.
He just showed me Jack’s head. “The Shining.”
Who was there to greet you when you crossed over Stanley?
When did he pass?
Like ten years ago. After the Tom Cruise movie came out.
“Eyes Wide Shut” Stanley?
Yes, Clockwork Orange, The Shining… Who was there to greet you when you crossed over?
He’s showing me his dog. Kind of grayish… first I saw something blond…
A hound?
It’s bigger… really big. I’m not sure of the name — I don’t know breeds.
(Note: This is accurate in terms of Stanley’s affection for his dogs. According to a recent documentary, he moved to a larger home specifically to make room for his dogs and left detailed instructions about each one and how they should be fed. “At home, children and animals would frequently come in and out of the room as he worked on a script or met with an actor. Kubrick’s many dogs and cats, toward which he showed an extraordinary affection, were often brought onto film sets or editing rooms.” Wikipedia)
What do you miss about being on the planet?
“The smells, the tastes, the frequency — I have to tell you more about that too.”
You were famous for not flying… was that OCD?
He showed me having panic attacks, but now he knows it was a past life thing. Now he does.
You were famous for calling people up and talking on the phone for hours and hours.
He’s showing me how his mind works.
Who do you wish you could talk to?
Everyone’s laughing because he said “Luana.”
Why?
He says, “Because it’s like you have to take a number to talk to her. You have to take a number.”
Who do you want me to reach out to?
He said, “Jack.”
And say what?
He said, “Stanley wants Jack to know that he’s okay.”
Well, Jennifer’s got to run. Napoleon thanks for coming in to see us…
He says “He’ll haunt you in your dreams.”

JFK and the Flipside
In honor of JFK:
I was in 3rd grade when the nuns in my grade school were weeping. They told us that JFK had been killed in Dallas.
I replied “but if he’s in heaven, isn’t that a good thing?” I was just following their logic — if he was a good person, then clearly he was back home in heaven. So… despite it being a sad day for those who missed him, for him, not so sad.
And here we are decades later with a podcast called HACKING THE AFTERLIFE.
JFK has shown up many times. I asked him all the questions I could think of — including if there was any documents that pointed to what happened. He replied that the book BROTHERS by David Talbot told the story accurately.
Since then RFK has shown up, as well as Nixon and LBJ. All of them said relatively the same things.
I’m reporting.
In honor of his passing, here are three podcasts we did where he showed up to add his two cents.
Each has a link, and each has a commentary about what he and other said during the podcast.
Enjoy.

Another mind bending
podcast. As noted, Jennifer Shaffer and I have been doing these weekly meetings
for 8 years. It was not long after John McCain's passing that I was
upstairs in my apt. and heard his voice say "I understand you're the guy to
get a message to my family." I was startled - I didn't know him, met his
chief of staff while researching "Three for the Road" in DC, but had
no connection to him.
Yet I could tell it was
his voice. I said to him what I say to everyone "I'm not in charge of that
- but if you can get on Luana Ander's guest list we're happy to chat with
you." He had a private message for his daughter, which I passed along through
a radio producer we both know - and I have no idea what she thought of someone
claiming to "hear her father." I know I would be dubious about
it.
But I said I would and
I did. And as noted, when RFK's voice showed up one day in my apt - clear as a
bell, I was startled to hear it. Again - I said "Well, if you want
to pass a message to your family, you need to speak to Luana." And we did
pass a message along to his family, and as noted, that family member thanked me
for doing so. It's not up to us whether people take these messages
seriously - however if I can figure out a way to pass along a message I will do
so.
In today's podcast,
John appeared in a dream I had last night, talking about opening up a
"McCain's Pub" or "McCain's joint" - a place where people
from both sides of the political spectrum could meet - talk about politics
without the fervor. Perhaps do karaoke - maybe a folk singer - and people could
listen and perhaps not argue.
Doesn't mean they're
going to change their opinions about anything - but it would be more civil.
It's not something I've ever thought of - and like Jennifer notes, politics is
the last thing we want to stir people up about. But he pointed this out in
the dream - and talked about it on the podcast.
Was surprised to hear
JFK and RFK stopped by - as they did not previously. When we first
interviewed Maverick - LBJ stopped by, and later Nixon, then Lincoln, then Mary
Todd Lincoln.
It's all in BACKSTAGE
PASS TO THE FLIPSIDE. I try to ask the same questions to all of them. If they
can add some kind of insight into our world, I'm happy to share it. I do
have conservatives in my family tree - and hopefully we survive the upcoming
election. But either way - I love the concept of "before you respond, calm
yourself, think a peaceful thought before you respond."
This past week I
attended the "Contact in the Desert" conference run by Ron Janix
("Captain Ron") in Indian Wells. It was a lot of fun and had a great
time hearing Paul Hynek, Matthew James Bailey and others. I wanted to
meet Paul Hynek because when I was in grade school in Northbrook Illinois, my
Catholic nun science teacher Sister Delfine (later Sister Anne) got me to do a
State Science fair project.
Her friend at
Northwestern was roped into being my mentor, and that happened to be the famous
J. Allen Hynek, who in 1969 was working on Project Blue Book. (The Air Force
book about UFO's.) Later his book about "Close Encounters" was the
genesis of the title of the feature film, and he appears on the film as
well. So when Jennifer sees an image of Richard Dreyfus, I knew why.
It's a mind bending
podcast - again - as I've been scheduled to appear on Coast to Coast with
George Noory next Wednesday 6-14-23 at 10 pm to midnight west coast time.
So Luana Anders (our moderator on the flipside) suggested we talk about that -
and Jennifer had no idea I was going to be on the show, and no idea that I had
met J. Allen Hynek's son Paul. There is a podcast on the page with J. Allen
Hynek - mentioned before - so it's possible we're revisiting information I've
already mentioned.
But I didn't know how
many kids he had (Jennifer did) and asked him questions that he might have
considered on the flipside since departing in the 1980's. Anyways, then
Charles Darwin stopped by - and as noted in the podcast, one of his great grandchildren
is one of Jennifer's clients. I ask him the same questions I ask
everyone, and we asked him before about what it was like to find oneself on the
flipside. He passed in the 1880's.
Finally, JFK Jr. stopped by - as noted because a friend of Jennifer's is making a documentary, but I took the opportunity to ask him a few simple questions about his journey. For the record, he left the planet with his wife in a plane crash back in 1999. But if someone is going to show up while we're on the air, I ask them the same questions. Hope this helps someone.
"The Election
Edition." Jennifer and I left our "request list" open to anyone
who wanted to pop in. From Sargent Shriver, to John McCain ("sweet
revenge" was his reply to "what's your opinion of the result?")
JFK's response to "Why was the Texas delegation celebrating on the 2nd
plane home from Dallas?" is one for the ages. Sargent Shriver had a
message for his daughter Maria.
I must report that I
was wrong about the number of children he had... there are only 5 children.
When he "stood up" at St. Monica's it may have been in reference to
children and grandchildren. Jennifer refers "he's telling me there are 9"
he mentions - it may be that he has 19 grandchildren. My error. Had only 5
children, but 19 grandchildren. We had no idea who might appear, and I did my
best to ask questions I thought others might want to hear (based on the
flipside research.)
Their advice (in a
nutshell) "Stop looking at each other as red and blue cars - we're all on
the same highway." Abe Lincoln weighed in the with the most powerful
advice: "Our democracy is worth LOVING FOR." (His words. Not
"fighting for" but "loving for." Not something Jennifer
made up (and asks him to clarify in the podcast.)
It's mind bending. But
the clouds have parted, time to gather up our neighbors and focus on how much
we are alike than different. It's wild! Enjoy. Someone transcribed some of the
comments during this video (thank you, so I don't have to) and sent them
to me with a note today on Quora:
"Don’t
fight over things you cannot control. Find the things that you are grateful
for. Love the fact that you live in a free country. Over here there is no time.
We still feel the pain of lies, betrayal, etc. Our country should have learned
and they feel grief and frustration. Answer: pray, meditate, get silent. Put
out what you are willing to come back to you. Do you want fear? Do you want
hate? Ask for what you should feel; what you can do to raise your own
vibration. Practice making contact to become more comfortable. Honest Abe:
“(your country) is worth loving for.” Love your neighbor. Loving is the new
fighting. Everything will be okay."
The
transcriber wrote: "I find this so deeply moving. It moves me to tears.
Peace."
