On the Eve of my Birthday

61 years ago (I'll be 60 tomorrow) I stood in front of my council of elders and talked about my planned journey for this lifetime as Rich Martini. I suggested that I was coming for a variety of reasons, including getting a chance to work with some of my old friends again (Luana, my dad, among others) and I had decided upon the novel idea of using healing arts through work as a filmmaker. 

Paul Tracey and Dave Patlak listen to me opine some years ago.

I know this to be true because I've seen this event, and when I saw it, I remembered it.  So it's no different than any event I remember in this lifetime - it's just there, and I can access it at anytime. I can reflect upon the logic of it - I can remember a number of lifetimes in the healing arts (a "Brahman" Doctor in Boston, a Sioux "Wa'tanka" Holy Man, a Brahman Priest in Kerala, and Dominican Monk in Italy, and yes, even a nun in France who was forced into habit due to a rape that resulted in pregnancy, a even a Priest in Sumeria, a place I'd never been aware of until I described it), and I told my council that I felt that in choosing to be Rich Martini, I could step "outside the box" with this lifetime, and bring healing energy to others through music, writing and film.

I reported this to the hypnotherapist who asked me the question during my first between life hypnosis session: Jimmy asked me "Why did you choose Rich Martini?" (Jimmy Quast of EastonHypnosis.com) 

I said "Look, every thought, word or deed contains energy, and that can be healing energy, so when you write a song, write a screenplay or a book, or make a movie, all the energy that you put into each frame, note or page moves throughout the universe and affects people. And that can be a powerful tonic."  I then said "People who can belly laugh in a movie theater have instantly altered the mindset they were previously on - it's a healing thing to do. That's why you chose comedy as a vehicle.  Tears work in the same manner, but they require catharsis - seeing the tragedy, crying the tears, and then ingesting the lesson.  In the case of comedy, there's no quicker way to change a person's life than to make them laugh."

I also can report that upon accessing this memory, and discussing it again with the elders during a session of deep hypnosis, I said to them "I just wish I'd picked a guy who would be more successful at it." 

I chose well. (from a few xmases ago) Sherry, Olivia, RJ tolerate
my journeys into the Flipside.
I can report to you that got laughs - both from Jimmy who was doing the five hour session, and the "council of elders" that I saw in my mind's eye.  They all laughed, and Jimmy laughed.  The only time I've gotten laughs on two planes.

But - I'm not clear that having more "success" in a field actually helps you in the endeavor to heal others, in fact, it may hinder it. 

If this had been as big a hit as the audience cards
said it would be, I would've missed the Flipside altogether.

I mention this because it's accessible to my mind now, and when I try to think about those lifetimes, more details come into focus.

I could be delusional, that's a given.  And I'm skeptical enough to allow that somehow in some manner that I'm aware of, I'm accessing these "other lives" through some kind of faulty memory - perhaps the Jungian unconscious that so many claim people who remember past lives can access.

But I'm also open to the concept that it is accurate, that I am accessing these memories accurately. That when I hear or experience "new information" from the memory of these events, it's not that I'm accessing someone else's experience or energetic memory - but my own.

Nancy Allen in my fable about trusting our guardian angel.

For example, Dr. Brian Weiss recalled a lifetime where he was a wealthy merchant who met Jesus.  He never told anyone about this past life regression, until a patient who was remembering the lifetime where they saw Jesus walking the Via Dolorosa with his cross, said "And you were there."  And the patient accurately described the unusual robe that Weiss had seen himself wearing with its orange piping along the edges of the cloth.  As I say "new information."  The client could not have been privy to Weiss' past life memory - nor could he have picked it up in some "mind transfer process."  He was there, and Dr. Weiss was there as well.  

So on this eve of my 60th birthday - it's worth reflecting that I would be 61 in Tibet (they count the time in the womb as 9 months being alive.) I'm reflecting on my choice of parents, the concert pianist and the architect, who crafted such a wonderfully musical journey for me.

But I'm not 60 in my higher conscious self - I can't tell you how old that fella is, as I don't have access to an accurate date because they calculate time "differently" over there.  Suffice to say it's been a long time that I've been around.

And a long time for you as well dear reader.

So while I celebrate this last day of my 59 years, please reflect on the fact that you chose to be on the planet, you chose to be who you are, and you chose to come to this page today to reflect upon it.

Thanks for stopping by.

Who called for help in the overturned car?

CNN:  WHO CALLED FOR HELP IN THE OVERTURNED CAR?



"Rescuers are bewildered by the voice they heard calling for help after a car overturned and plunged into an icy river."

These three rescuers heard an "adult voice" saying "Help me." I have some simple questions for them, which Anderson perhaps neglected to ask. 

Was it a male or female voice? When comparing the three accounts, do they all say the same tone of a male or female voice? If it wasn't someone playing a trick (unlikely) then there are two possibilities I can think of. 

Either the mother (who was apparently long dead) or the baby was calling for help. If it was the mother's "spirit" or "consciousness" asking for help, would she have asked for help for herself or her baby? Seems she might have said "Help her" or "Help my baby!" (I'm just saying, it's the logical choice for what to say in such an emergency and you're aware of yourself and a baby.) 

Someone suggested the maternal bonds were so strong that the mother stuck around after death to make sure that her baby was rescued.  That's entirely possible.  But even that would have to be explained, as how does one "stick around" if they're no longer in the body?  Is it, as the research in "Flipside" shows, that we are conscious outside of our bodies?

But the question I have with that scenario is one of sentence construction.  Why say "Help me" instead of "Help my baby."  Certainly the second sentence is more powerful than the first, and more accurate if that was the case.

There is a third possibility, and the likeliest as odd as it may appear, is that the baby was speaking in an adult voice asking for help. The baby was passed out in the back of the car, and had been there for some time. So how could a baby speak in an adult voice? 

Well, if you have read "Flipside: A Tourist's Guide On How To Navigate the Afterlife" or "It's a Wonderful Afterlife: Further Adventures in the Flipside Vol 1 you'd be aware of accounts of people being in touch with their previous lifetimes. But it's not easy to adjust the speed and tone and energy of yourself over there to communicate with people over here - otherwise people would do it all the time (outside of the ghost hunter shows). In this particular instance, a baby's higher self, that higher conscious self that is always with us, always part of our journey, made an effort to speak out loud to these three people, and they all heard that person speak. "Help me." (Not "Help mom," or "Help the baby" - "Help Me.") 

If you're looking for something the proves there is an afterlife or reincarnation, it's hard to try to put together all the wires required to make this theory fly. 

But if you're of a mind that we don't die, (which is what the research shows) and that we do incarnate consciously, that we do have a higher self keeping an eye over us, and can step in to help in times of need - well, then Bob's your Uncle, there's no mystery here. My two cents.

Reviews are in!

Some wonderful reviews for the books.  I've learned quite clearly that the reviews are not about ME, but about the research inside of them.  So I take no bows, break no legs (the Elizabethan version of bowing, one leg behind the other, hence the term "Break a leg") because it's not about my path, or my journey to this material.

It's about your path, your journey to this material. 

I believe sincerely that those who are supposed to see your work will find it.  Of course, you have to actually hit the "publish" key, and you have to talk to folks about the material, and you have to make it accessible to people.  So a sincere "thanks" to those who have taken the time to write reviews of the books, or to share in some small way their experience reading them.

I have a reader in another country who says they can't go to sleep unless they're listening to one of my "book talks."

 

I found that amusing, and just a little bit odd.  But it points to why I'm writing this post - it's not about me.  It's about you.  And in this person's case, they felt that somehow my voice in their ear was "reprogramming" their brain, or helping them to access "higher levels of consciousness."  

I have no idea if that's the case.  But it's clear to me when I'm filming these sessions of people under deep hypnosis, or reporting on near death experiences, and sharing the salient points that are common in all "altered states" - whether speaking to "spirit guides" or consulting with our "elders" or "soul groups" - that I'm helping to facilitate this information to those who need to hear it.

I'm helping to facilitate this information to those who need to hear it.

That may not be you.  That's okay.  That may be someone you know who is suffering from the loss of a loved one, who can't seem to come back to the planet to continue on the path they've chosen.  Perhaps you've found this material so you can pass it along to someone else, or to meditate on it.

I've found a unique phenomenon in the reporting of these "afterlife" accounts.  That when someone has the access to the spirit world, just like those who access the planet Earth from outer space have reported "the overview effect" - people who have visited or been to the spirit realm no longer see the Earth and their path here the same, and further, it's like they've lessened or alleviated the filters that keep them from accessing information back there.

When I ask people direct questions about their travels into the spirit realm, and I take the time to really listen to their account, and tailor the questions to what they saw or heard or experienced - they're able to access the event again in real time. That's amazing.  That's like having a car accident when you're five, and then 50 years later, through a series of questions, while fully conscious, you can access all of the information again.

That's kind of mind boggling.

Anyways, enough about me, how about some reviews of me?  (Old Hollywood joke). 

THANK YOU TO THOSE WHO TOOK THE TIME TO NOT ONLY READ THIS INFORMATION, BUT TO COMMENT ON IT!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book!February 18, 2015
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Rich Martini has written the perfect follow-up to Dr. Newton's books. Martini's humor and enthusiasm in pursuit of a first-person exploration into the existence and nature of the "afterlife" is spellbinding. If you've never heard of "Past Life Regression" or "Life Between Lives" or if you're a skeptic about reincarnation, by all means get this and read it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating for both the seasoned spiritual seeker and the skepticFebruary 16, 2015
I have researched and read about reincarnation for many years including most of the titles that Mr Martini recommends at the end of this book. Thank you for a fresh take on a fascinating subject. Doesn't the author sound like like a wonderful guy to have as a friend? Such sweet remembrances of his friends both living and those who have crossed over. Love to all, Pamela.

5.0 out of 5 stars Such a Spiritual Book - Loved Every Bit of It!February 3, 2015
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: FlipSide: A Tourist's Guide on How to Navigate the Afterlife (Paperback)
WOW. Just finished Flipside. Such a spiritual book! Loved every bit of it. I'm a licensed therapist and hypnotherapist and I've been reading everything I can get my hands on about life-between-lives hypnosis. What I loved most about Flipside is that Rich Martini is a natural story teller. He includes personal stories about himself and his hollywood pals and their connection to the afterlife. But, best of all -- he shares his own life-between-lives hypnosis sessions. You get to experience the sessions through his eyes and you get a sense of what it might be like to have a session -- to connect with your immortal soul and your reason for being who you are on the planet today. Life-changing. Inspiring. Brave. Thank-you Rich Martini.
