That’s very interesting, Sherry. I’ve been re-thinking a lot of words lately: “afterlife”, “life”, “death”. I’m reading Frank’s book and in order to wrap my head around it, (because honestly it is really, really strange), I’ve started to put quotations around the above words when I think of them, since it seems I need to expand their meaning. My father’s body ceased to function this past June. I know this to be true because I felt his body grow cold to the touch, and a few days later, I watched as it was put in the fire, and I now have ashes to prove it. But I don’t have proof that he has completely ceased to exist. If there was more to him than his body, where has it gone? Well, now I wonder if it/he hasn’t gone anywhere, and I’m determined to find the proof. Maybe the word “afterlife” isn’t useful anymore. Maybe we are all here and there at the same time. Maybe we are sometimes working inside of matter, and sometimes working outside of matter. It feels to me like that “cloud of witnesses” holds some of the answers, and I’d like to shake it out of them. But they seem to be talking easily to Frank, and not to me.

This is probably more stupid than profound, but if we experience the afterlife is it really afterlife. If it is not afterlife, but really a different dimension of experiencing this life…..is it really the afterlife we are then experiencing or is the afterlife still something we have to take on faith or disregard altogether. Is this clear? Is what you are talking about really”afterlife” as described in scripture or just a diferent dimension of this life? I believe there is a whole other realm happening here “with a cloud of witnesses” encouraging us.

Hi Frank,

I’m emotionally reactive to past and present moment stories. I feel everything. I find it difficult to watch media that’s about disaster, war or loss. My response draws spirit to me and my guide waits for me to offer to talk to them. The energy of the moment in history/time is present around/within me and needs healing.

Everything we do/think remains in our energetic environment. This maybe a collective consciousness, but I’m only using words to describe something that has no space, time, matter, or conscious presence. It simply is, much like the address, ‘I am.’ We always want to understand it and if we do we run the risk of harnessing it. Will we use it for good? If history (habit) is the guide, I’d think not.

As a healer I see the presence of what has come before. I follow energetic threads into ancestral spirit and turn shadows into light. The individual is healed because I heal the world. How I see it, or what I perceive it to be, is not important. I see and perceive because I’m the physical embodiment* of what is, the, I am. The part of us that records and desires the answer is the smallest particle (?) of all, and yet it is the creator and the created.

*Again physical embodiment is not accurate. We’re a vessel for unlimited potential and the physical is the restrictive/reactive (the habit) part of us. Everything has an individual vibration and is a singular vibration. The singular is nothing. Don’t try to name it, its not peace, bliss, consciousness, God, question, or answer. If enlightenment (pure and unqualified knowledge) can be recorded/experienced, then by definition it’s not enlightenment.

My guys upstairs are working me. This is not what I thought I was going to say.

In my world spirit coexist with me. They’re present. I agree there’s no them or us. I also believe as a singular vibration we’ve lived every life. I could say I’ve lived fifty past lives, but I’ve been present for every life, so I have that knowledge present somewhere now. It’s in my tea cup, its in consciousness, it is: here, there, where?

The problem with life is that we’re living habit. Spirit is present to make us aware of that. The choices we make are already pre programmed. We don’t have free will, we have no will. We are creating the future now. The future is present observing and evolving.

Thanks Frank. I may have wandered of course a little, but I love these moments.
