"Green Peace" A Message from Nelson Mandela on the Flipside to Sting, Bono, Oprah and Lin-Manuel Miranda

As fans of my Flipside books know, I've been continuing to interview folks on the flipside each week. Jennifer Shaffer and I have two books "Backstage Pass to the Flipside: Talking to the Afterlife with Jennifer Shaffer" and two more coming out soon.

Occasionally, someone comes through with a message that he or she asks us to pass along.



A couple of weeks ago, I filmed a session with someone whose husband had killed himself some years ago.  I invited his widow to a session, did not tell the medium (Jennifer Shaffer) who was coming to the session, so there was no possible way for her to know who we were going to be speaking with.

His widow came to her office, and we began filming what her husband wanted to say to her.  He spoke of their children (Jennifer knew they had three) knew she had objects in her purse she had brought of his, knew there was an old photo of the two of them on her cellphone, knew that she had "spoken" with him on the drive up to the office, knew many specific details about his private life, had specific instructions for his children and his parents, as well as other key details that he's observed since he "crossed over."

It was thrilling as well as touching to hear him apologize profusely for leaving her side, when he had promised he would not.  

But he had a brain disease, an issue that he described in detail that came from his professional career, and we spoke to him extensively about that (and passed along messages to those he wanted us to).  

I'll be reporting more of that conversation in the future, but for now, just want to point out - "You can speak to your loved ones that are no longer here."  It takes some patience, but this event proved to his wife that he still exists. (It might not prove it to anyone else, but that's not the point, is it?)

But the other day, as I was filming Jennifer in a session, she suddenly said "Nelson Mandela is here."



I pointed out to her that he had "stopped by briefly before" (she had forgotten) in another session years earlier. 

I thought it a bit unusual, as he wasn't a topic of conversation, and he wasn't someone we had "asked to come forward." (When I do that, Jennifer has the uncanny ability to say "So and so is here" when an hour earlier, prior to meeting with her, I had asked for "so and so" to appear.) I never met the President of South Africa, and don't know anyone personally who did that I'm aware of.

I asked him what he wanted to tell us and why he was showing up in a restaurant in Manhattan Beach to do so.



She said "He's showing me you in my mind's eye, and he's saying that "You are correct in your writing when you say that it's important to save the planet."  

(Note: I have been writing "One of the reasons I focus on this flipside research is that it proves we still exist after death, and people on the flipside claim we choose to incarnate.  If it's true we choose to come back, then doesn't it make sense to leave behind fresh air, water and earth, if not for our children, but our own return?")

He told us "There is an imbalance." 

He showed Jennifer the Amazon rainforest, she said she could see its vast lush, beauty and see animals in it - and he said "when there is an imbalance there, there is an imbalance here as well."  Meaning that when all of the lives and plants and trees are destroyed here, they are disrupted from their cycles, from their journeys, and people "on the flipside" can feel it, are concerned about it as well.


Bono and pal Nelson
I said "Well, how can we help sir?  If it is possible for us to help, how can we do so?"  

He said "Your books.  They show people that it is possible to speak to their loved ones no longer on the planet, and by doing so, you're influencing us over here - to see that it is possible to continue the conversation with you."

(Note: I've written about how our "class" - that is people who are no longer on the planet show up to "speak to us" and they have to go through a process of "lowering their consciousness" or "lowering their frequency" in order to speak with us, and we have to go through a process of "raising our frequency" in order to speak with them - and meet them "in the middle." And when he says "Your books" I know he doesn't mean "me" Rich - he means what's in them, that people consistently demonstrate our loved ones are "not gone. They're just not here.")

That has been a topic we've often discussed, and I've heard it from a variety of sources, not just Jennifer, but others who "access" this same kind of information (sometimes under hypnosis, and often not under hypnosis at all.)

I asked him for some concept that I could pass along on his behalf.  

He said "Green. Peace."  

I asked "You mean the entitity, Greenpeace, or do you mean the concept?"  He said "The concept. Green. Peace." (Note: That doesn't mean he didn't mean the organization - perhaps he did, but this is what Jennifer got from him).

The idea that by being green, or ecologically aware, brings peace.   

Well, allow me to let him speak in his own "words" (as repeated by Jennifer Shaffer, a renowned medium  who works with law enforcement nationwide on missing person cases):


Jennifer Shaffer
Jennifer's replies are in bold, my questions are in italics.

Rich: So Nelson Mandela is here? Okay. Why has he shown up?

Jennifer: He’s showing me you – in my mind’s eye, saying “You’re correct about the planet. There’s layers of it." I see layers (gestures with her hand) going down at once (from above to below).


What do you mean by that, sir?

"They’re helping the planet from up there like we’re trying to help it from (down) here."

So the layers are - you guys helping from above and trying to help us from below?

He’s showing me like a room full of people on cell phones not paying attention.

What’s a way for us to break through that? How do we get them to pay attention?

“Your books.”

What can I say to them that will help?

“Science.”

(Note: Not sure if he means the science behind consciousness studies done at UVA, how the brain is more like a receiver than a creator of content, how the brain has filters that prevent us from accessing etheric or energetic information... or if he means "it's science dummy" as in "climate science.")

What can we say on your behalf, in your words, that will convince people this is you speaking?

Jennifer aside: I hope I’m getting this right; “Peace is when the Amazon forest is full of life.”

Okay.

He says it again; “Full of life.” He’s showing me all the trees, all the animals. “When we take away the Amazon we take away the peace of the two different kingdoms – (gestures up and below) between man and nature - and it makes it so unbalanced that things start happening (natural disasters) like a shark attack, things getting disrupted.”

What can we do to get people to pay attention to the planet in a different fashion?

He’s showing me you on a picket line with a sign.

What’s the sign say?

Green peace.

Two words or one word? Greenpeace is an entity.

“No. Two.”


So two words “Green Peace.” We need your help reaching out to people; who should we reach out to? which of your friends would be receptive to your message?

(Jennifer aside) This is so weird. I’m not going to judge it. He’s showing me Puerto Rico.  I’m thinking “Why Puerto Rico?” I don’t know.

Hold on – let’s break it down – I asked “Which of your friends.. and you showed her Puerto Rico; does that mean Lin-Manuel Miranda?

“Yes.”


I get it.

(Jennifer aside:) I don’t know how.

He put it your head, it went to my head; Lin is from Puerto Rico, he was recently there with "Hamilton." I asked who, and he showed you the place, and he's the first person that came to mind. May I ask, are you saying he should do a play about you?

He says “It’s already in the works.”

(Note: Perhaps it is, perhaps Lin is not aware of it at this moment and later will be.  We hear these answers often, that don't seem true at the time, then turn out to be accurate later on. Only Lin-Manuel Miranda will know if this is accurate or whoever is writing a musical about Mandela and wants Lin-Manuel to participate.)

Okay, that’s someone we should reach out to... so you want me to tell him “We were speaking to Nelson Mandela and he told me to reach out to you and tell you there’s a play you’re going to do about him?” Will that convince him that this is actually you speaking...? And the message you want us to pass along is that you wan him to help save the planet through Green Peace.”

“Yes.”

(Note: I've been doing this a lot with Jennifer, about four years now. I know when someone asks us to do something, that doesn't mean the person that is supposed to hear it actually will - or even comprehend. It may be a year from now, someone passes this post on to them - "Did you know some nutball said Nelson Mandela had a message for you?"  My job here isn't to parse what she's getting - she repeatedly says it may be misinterpretation - that happens - but our job is to pass it along. Saving the planet is important information wherever it comes from.)

Okay,  who else?

“Sting.”

Do you know Sting, Mr. Mandela? Did you meet him? 

He showed me Sting and Bono – I think he’s saying “They’ve thought about what’s going on in terms of the Amazon.”

(Note: In 1988 Sting did a concert that is credited with helping Free Nelson Mandela. http://www.cnn.com/2013/12/06/showbiz/south-africa-mandela-protest-song/index.html - Bono and Nelson were friends as well. I met Sting when I reviewed one of his shows for Variety, and he couldn't have been more gracious.)

From the Wembley concert on Youtube

What message to Sting could I pass along that he would know is coming from you?

"That he spoke to him recently."

Since crossing over?

“Yes.”

In a dream? Or how?

Just like this – us talking. "He was getting a message."

(Note: That could mean Sting was speaking to a medium or a friend who said "I don't know why I'm seeing Nelson Mandela" or it could be that Sting was meditating (hello Tantra!) and heard him directly, the way Jennifer does. I have no clue, but it's the first time anyone on the flipside has said "Just like we are talking. I talked to him." So that's unusual.)

So Sting heard a message from you recently?

He showed me "Everyone getting the same message at the same time..."

Okay, so everyone is getting this same message we are? I’ll do my best to reach out to Bono and Sting.  Hearing a stranger tell you that you got a message from the flipside is an odd confirmation of that detail.

He’s showing me cleaning up the oceans, how dense the salt is in the ocean, we should be cleaning that up. "Making clean energy."

(Note: She said "salt;" perhaps meaning plastic - or perhaps there an over salinization happening that's related: Here's an article about how water (for crops) is becoming too salty. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/earths-soil-getting-too-salty-crops-grow-180953163/.) 

So your top three pals I should reach out to are Bono, Sting and Lin-Manuel Miranda?

Yes. He says “They’re all getting messages, they’re planning it everywhere, they’re all getting the same message.”

With another pal; Oprah.

So what’s the best way for others to participate and help?

“Think tanks. Like minded groups.”

What about President Obama? Should I reach out to him?

(Shakes her head). He’s showing me there’s almost no way to get through.

(Note: If this was some kind of cheerleading message, he would have said "Sure, him too!" but did not. I find it interesting when the answers are contrary to why I might imagine.  "Should we contact President Obama?" was answered "Not possible. But maybe later.")

Well Nelson’s a big name – if we can get the message through to him; he’ll get it. Not from me, but from someone else.

"He’ll come in later."

What about your pal Oprah?

I was shown an image of Oprah and her dogs; super happy... that kind of pure happiness. "Yes, absolutely; reach out to her."


(Note: The people who are aware of this work, aware of Jennifer’s work – the ones who have experienced speaking to their loved ones on the flipside directly know we’re not making this up. And for the ones who will ridicule it, it doesn't matter. I get what he's saying; this is an “all hands on deck, we’re in danger of losing our planet, of losing why we incarnate here in the first place” kind of thing, and he's doing his part to pass that along to anyone who could hear him – to pass along that everyone who loved you still exists, and that it’s important to try and save our planet.) 

May I ask you some of our mundane questions about your journey, Mr. Mandela? Who was there to greet you when you crossed over?

His mother.

Okay, who are you hanging out with now?

He showed me some of the members of our class. He’s showing me Luana, for example.

Luana Anders, our class moderator. Photo by Monte Hellman.

We’ve had quite a gathering of people in our class, from Abe Lincoln to Martin Luther king... What do you think about what we’re doing, this connection to our class on the flipside?

“Amazing.”  He said it again; “Amazing.” He showed me Morton, (Michael Newton) how they’re (on the flipside) learning how to talk to people here and we’re in turn getting people to open up their minds so they can do it.

(Note: One of the first people to “come through” with my conversations with Jennifer was Michael Newton, whom she called “Morton” (and since then refers to himself that way.)  Michael told us he’s helping people “on the other side” to communicate, helping to show them how to do so by “lowering their frequency.” He said he was "helping people over there to communicate with people over here.")

I was thinking of friends of mine who are from South Africa who might help you...

"You should talk to them, definitely."

What do you miss about being on the planet?

He’s showing me tangible (things).. touching – “Holding people. The sand in my toes. The feeling of people – Hugging. Physical touch, water between my feet, sand at the beach, clean water."

I can almost hear you saying “clean water” with your elegant accent.  Are you planning on coming back soon?

He says "Part of him is already (back) here."

Where?

“The Amazon."

As a male or female?

A male – he showed me a guy with a spear –  I asked “Like are you spearing fish?” He said "No."

Do you mean like an indigenous native?

“Yes. That’s it.”

What country?

“Peru.”

Why did you choose that lifetime?

“I wanted to feel the dirt.” What he’s saying is that he can feel all what this person is feeling, so he’s understanding first hand that there’s no fish (anymore), the animals are dying in the forest.

What percentage of your energy is in this guy?

“Thirty.”

(Note: Michael Newton would ask people “how much or your conscious energy was in your lifetime?” as they recalled a previous lifetime.  I noticed that the number was usually between 20 and 40% or “about a third” or our conscious energy.  In the 50 sessions I've filmed, people say "about a third" and that two thirds of their conscious energy is always "back home.")

He’s showing me “It feels like 100% of his energy to the person that he is incarnated in, but that person is not aware of it.. maybe like 10% is aware."

Is he aware in his dreams? Does he sometimes recall your life?

“Yes.”

Which does he remember more of; the pain or the later adulation?

He showed me a flag – he’s telling me "That’s a symbol of being free."

So in a dream he might remember being you?

“No, he doesn’t see him, but he comes through in a different way...” (Jennifer aside) I just saw something... I was just shown that in the dream state we get to go within our soul group to experience other versions of ourselves; we get to see through their eyes what they’re doing.

Actually, I was writing about this morning.

(Jennifer, shocked but not shocked) Really?

I was writing about how we spend a third of our lives asleep – and it occurred me that cats sleep 14 to 18 hours a day – nature doesn’t make mistakes, so why would nature create a creature that sleeps 2/3rds of its life? Unless somehow we have it reversed; that while we are asleep, our etheric bodies are doing all kinds of things.

“Correct.”

We sleep a third of our lives, we have other activities while we are asleep. Is that what you’re saying?

“Yes. Nature doesn’t make mistakes; we do.”

Any last words for us?

(Holds up two fingers.)

Peace?

"Green peace." 

Thank you sir.

Filmed June 20th, 2019

The more and more the sessions that we do, either with Jennifer or while speaking to someone directly who is accessing the flipside, they say the same things about "altering consciousness so that we can speak to our loved ones."

Apparently it's not for nostalgia's sake - it's to let us know that the path we are on is unsustainable.  That if we don't want to come back to the planet, fine, eat all the meat you want - but if you can realize that you chose to come to the planet, that you chose to be here, then you're taking away that choice in the future if we don't fix the planet now.

Now you know.

Happy Father's Day - "Things I've Heard My Father Say Since He Left the Planet."

The architect sitting in his living room filled with light.

Something I posted today on the Book of Faces:



Image may contain: 1 person, text

Things I've heard my father say since he crossed over: 

"Tell your mother I love her. It's beautiful here. I'm experiencing indescribable joy. I'm with Harry, Kitty, mama, papa, Rig, Vey" (and 6 others I didn't know but mom did.) When I asked "why are you telling me?" He said "Because you can hear me." 

Years later I asked him "Should we move into the home you designed and built?" He answered "This was my path." 
Jennifer trying to keep me from interrupting her.

I was in a doctor's office having a routine "procedure" (If it's so routine why was I required to be knocked out by anesthesia?) I saw him sitting across a river from me on grass. He looked about 40 years old (roughly when I arrived on the planet) and we were having a casual conversation about life.  I can remember pulling blades of grass up and tossing them.

I started to hear the sounds of the doctor's office intruding, and said to him "Well, that's my cue." And he said "I'll see you later."  I said "When?"  (As if asking when I was going to be crossing over) and he laughed.

I was swimming in a pool of ice water at the top of the world.  It was 4 in the morning, I had taken my clothes off and gone out into the icy waters of Lake Mansarovar.  I was a moonless night, it was darker than I could see, and it was colder than anything I've ever experienced.  I was knee deep in the water, so I sat down in my skivvies and splashed water over me, until I heard my father's voice, clear as a bell say "Basta."  (Italian for "that's enough!")

I got up and headed out of the cold water and into the rest of my life.
Anthy Sherry Dad

When Olivia was 2 she ran into the living room of our apt. "Grandpa is in the kitchen!" she said excitedly three years after his passing. I asked quietly "Did he say why he is here?" She said "To see the new baby!" (Her 6 month old brother RJ) When I asked "What else does he want to tell us?" 

She said "He says "I love you... And you guys need a bigger house." 



Not gone. Just not here. Happy Father's Day.

Tom Petty and the Flipside

For fans of the book "Backstage Pass to the Flipside: Talking to the Afterlife with Jennifer Shaffer" they're aware that Tom Petty was the person who suggested the title for the book.

Jennifer Shaffer
When he showed up during a session I was filming with Jennifer Shaffer, talking to people no longer on the planet, I hadn't asked for him to come forward, but he was suddenly there.  When I asked him about his experience "over there" he said "Talking to you guys is like trying to get into the VIP room.  Your friend Luana here has the clipboard with the list of VIPs who get a backstage pass."

So the book was named by that conversation.

Luana Anders; keeper of the clipboard.
I noticed in the trades today, that there is a dispuit over Tom's estate.

From Barron's:

Breakdown Over Tom Petty’s Estate Offers a Lesson
May 24, 2019 

File:Tom Petty Live in Horsens.jpg
Tom Petty. Faengslet, Horsens, Denmark June 2012
"A disagreement among family members of late singer-songwriter Tom Petty that spilled into the courts underlines the importance of precise language in trust and estate documents.

So reports WealthManagement.com, which notes that Adria Petty and Annakim Violette, Petty’s daughter’s from his first marriage, recently sued his widow, Dana York Petty, and are seeking at least $5 million in damages.

The daughters accuse Dana of setting up a company, Tom Petty Legacy, LLC, as a vehicle to deprive them of assets. This company is separate from Petty Unlimited, LLC, established in 2018 to manage the singer’s assets after he died.

The daughters claim the terms of Petty’s trust give them “equal participation” in making decisions about handling the estate. Dana has claimed in court documents the daughters are attempting to “rule by majority.” She also has said that as sole trustee for the estate, she gets the final word on decisions.

Both interpretations are plausible, Carrie Harrington, a trusts and estates attorney at Levenfeld Pearlstein in Chicago, tells WealthManagement.com: “Equal participation” could mean Petty wanted each of the three to have an equal vote, which would give the daughters a 2-1 majority. It could also mean the daughters have the right to participate in the decision-making process but can be overruled by Dana. The attorney who drafted legal documents for Petty could provide clarity on his intentions.

The lesson here for financial planners seems to be to make sure the language in trust and estate documents is crystal clear, preventing multiple interpretations.

--Ross Snel



Well, here's Tom addressing that SAME issue on October 26th, 2017: 

(an excerpt from "BACKSTAGE PASS TO THE FLIPSIDE: TALKING TO THE AFTERLIFE WITH JENNIFER SHAFFER" Homina Publishing 2018. All Rights Reserved, used with permission.)


Jennifer: Luana is telling the classroom to “be quiet.” They’re doing an experiment is what I’m getting... Tom Petty is in the back of the classroom.

Rich: Cool. So how does the class bell work? How do they know when it’s “time for class?”

It’s a frequency, they know a certain time - it’s a frequency that’s sent out to everybody...

How many are in the class? Is it whoever shows up with the frequency?

There are some people with her, but it goes out to hundreds of thousands that are connected. They don’t need to be physically here to be present.

Like a virtual class for the ethernet. Set the classroom visual for me – how is our professor attired?

(Jennifer fans herself) She is mentioning how hot it is. Hold on – it’s interesting to hear they feel the heat...

How does she look to you?

It’s down - she’s wearing white – I think I always see her in white. She’s changed her lipstick to an orange, like a summer color.

Okay, Luana, what’s up? You’re here, we’re here; let’s talk.

She just touched my shoulders. (Jennifer listens) So I’m getting... She’s saying, “Tom Petty wants to know something about his death.” I’m saying to her “But he’s with you – wouldn’t he know about his own death?”

How can we help him?

He shows me like a computer, googling the answer.

(Note: I did not “ask for Tom” to come to our class today. This was an example of him passing on, and “showing up spontaneously in the class.” In terms of his passing, the results of his autopsy, which showed that he had a massive amount of pain killers in his body from a broken hip, had not been released by this recording.)

What would you like to know, Tom? Can Tom come forward?

“Yes.”

I didn’t know you Tom, but I likely have friends who knew you.

Luana touches her nose. “That’s why he’s here.”

What would you like to know about your passing?

Does Tom have a daughter?

I think so. Yeah.

It’s about someone getting the paperwork. Like whatever help you can give them – they or she - needs to find the paperwork or whatever it was that’s necessary for her estate.

But people will handle that, right Tom?

Yeah.”

(Note: If it’s someone we know and they ask “get a message to their loved one;” I’m happy to do so. In this case, I don’t know anyone close enough to Tom to say “Hey, your pal asked me to pass this along.”  That’s why I say, “But there are people who will handle that?” - meaning, their connection must be better.)

Who greeted you when you crossed over?

His father.

(Note: I didn’t know Tom was physically abused by his father, which led to his heroin addiction. For those who might balk at this answer, as I’ve reported in “Flipside” people claim that those who abused or molested them may have asked or been asked to participate in a difficult lifetime to teach or learn the hard lessons that come from that difficult choice. Suffice to say, everyone who knew Tom’s dad will reject this concept, but I can only report what people consistently say about the journey; once we “return home” we drop the negative aspects of personality – no matter how cruel or bad – and appear as we exist between lives.  People report consistently that “everyone agrees” on what role they’re going to play in a future “performance” including the ones who play “the bad guys.”)[1]

What was your experience crossing over? Were you startled to cross over?

“Wouldn’t you be?”

Were you at home?

He said, “A couple weeks before; his energy was drained,” he said he kind of... He said he “felt he knew.”

I read an article about you being exhausted. How exhausted were you?

That’s what he’s saying; he kind of knew. He said, “He told one person that he had a dream about it.” It’s like he saw it before hand, and told someone about it... he saw a face, from the place where he is now... but it was not the way he dreamt it.

Did Luana invite you to class to help process this?

“Yes.” He looks at Luana.  “It (this class) helps both here and there. It gives it a sort of process... we eventually process everything. An eyewitness.”

What was your experience crossing over, did you see hear or sense anything?

He’s showing me smells... of the concert... whatever is in the concert... smoke...

From pot smoke?

He says, “He quit drinking... 25 years ago.”

(Note: He thought I meant him smoking pot, when I meant the usual aroma from a concert. However, this is accurate. In his biography, it’s noted he went into rehab for heroin addiction in the late 90’s, was saved by his wife Dana.)

What point did you realize you were in the afterlife?

“I saw my dad; he wasn’t saying anything, but I could hear his thoughts.”

How did he appear? Younger?

The age he last saw him.

Tom, when you look around this group that Luana has assembled, are there other people that you know or a fan of, or surprised to see?

“Yes, really surprised.” He’s showing me the heart, he was showing me that he knew something was out there (on the flipside) because of the information he was getting from his songs... he was connected back to the place (on the flipside) where he “downloaded” the songs.

Beethoven talked about that as well... he credited his music as coming from another universe, or a space beyond time.[2]

I’ve never heard that.

So there's a new gig for me - taking legal notes from those on the flipside that have passed on.

I wasn't being flippant by saying "They'll sort that out, won't they?"  I was just offering that it's beyond my capacity to reach out to his daughters, his widow, convince them that Tom is still here, still exists, and they he does not want them to fight over money.  

I can point them to a number of things in these books that prove beyond a shadow of doubt that our lives continue on.  That both sides need to realize he's still around and he can advise them on what they should do. He's not gone. He's just not here.

I recommend giving JenniferShaffer.com a call - you don't have to tell her who you are, you just have to let her know that you want to speak to a friend/relative named "Tom" who is off the planet - and she'll take it from there. At some point she'll likely say "Are we talking to Tom Petty?"  

I recommend speaking the truth to her, and speaking from the heart.  He wants to do the same with you. Wouldn't you like to know what he says about how it should be handled? Ask him.

Thanks for the title for the book Tom; message delivered. Hope someone forwards this on to them.

All Flipside all the Time
