I’ve been thinking a lot about you all lately. It’s a beautiful thing, the connection we share here. We’re there for one another. There is a unity that is comforting in that it peels back the veil and exposes the wonderful fact that separation is an temporary illusion.
By the way, Shannon reminded me that after you press the code for the conference code, you must press #.
And now for today’s part of the channeling session:
Channeling Transcript
Me: Okay, what about this one: are there different races in the afterlife?
Erik: No.
Me: Really?
Erik: Of course not, Mom. We’re all just spiritual beings. We choose different races for the same reason we choose different socioeconomic backgrounds, different cultural backgrounds and different sexual orientations. That diversity gives us a lot of possible learning experiences.
Me: Yeah, sure. I guess differences between groups help create that illusion of separation and provides all sorts of possible challenges to overcome.
Erik: Yeah, being fearful of other religions or races, uh, discriminating—some are very open, some are closed. That’s where the spiritual melting pot comes in on the earthly plane.
Me: Oh, okay.
Erik: Now Mom, there are alien beings who come from different planets, different solar systems, galaxies, universes.
Kim: He’s scratching his head like he’s wondering about something.
Erik: I don’t know if you would call them a race or not, but they’re very individual.
Me: Okay.
Erik: But the groups or very similar. So like, um—
Kim: I know what he’s saying, but I think it sounds pretty confusing.
Erik: All earthly beings would look similar. We have a male or female gender.
Me: Uh huh.
Erik: So all human beings tend to look similar. Two legs, two arms, um, you know?
Me: Yeah, I get what you’re saying.
Erik: So black or white, Christian or Muslim, rich or poor, a human looks like a human. Souls tend to look pretty similar in heaven—balls and beams of light.
Me: Okay.
Erik: And then you have these alien beings who take on physical form.
Kim: But I know for a fact, Erik, that they can take on a human being form, and some live here on the earthly plane with us.
Me: Whoa, really?
Erik: Well, that’s a whole nuther topic, Kimberly!
Kim (laughing): Oh, he called me Kimberly! Am I in trouble with you, Erik?
Erik: Yes, and you’re going to get a big spanking!
Kim and I laugh hard!
