Enjoy this thought-provoking guest post by Tammy De Mirza! This is a question that haunts all of humanity and it isn’t answered in the ways we like, but here is the simple truth about it. We come into this realm to experience pain and suffering, good and bad, right and wrong, basically the dichotomies of…
Dealing with Bad Shit
I just finished Part One of my channeling session with Raylene for the February Monthly Q&A. I plan on posting it as a YouTube on Saturday. Then on Tuesday, we’ll finish the other questions, which will probably be published as two YouTubes, Wednesday and Saturday. The problem is that Raylene couldn’t control the number of…
The Joy of Suffering, Part Two
Well, sorry, guys, but I was shot down on making a vlog of my camping trip. Too many camera shy people. 🙁 We did have a great time, though. The weather wasn’t the best, but the company was. I think the highlight of the weekend was our sighting of big cat paw prints near a…
The Joy of Suffering, Part One
Guest host Patrick who did the recent channeling Illuminati 1.1, has a website with more. If you’re a fan of celebrity channelings, please visit The Amendment. You won’t be disappointed! Right now, I’m sitting my semi-retired butt in an RV headed for Castroville, TX for some camping.I have a mobile hotspot, which allows me to have…
Rising Above the Struggle
I’m trying to think of another thing to “vlog” about. If there’s anything you guys want me to film, let me know. This is an old post, but for some reason, I felt compelled to publish it again. Maybe I was nudged to do so to help one of you. Me: Erik, there are so…
Which Road Will You Take
I know I’ve plastered this all over Facebook, but I want to announce here that I found out Jamie isn’t accepting just 13 participants for the Channeling Erik Weekend of F-ing Enlightenment in Denver. (Why in the hell did I pick that number? I don’t know. Senile, I guess.) She’s accepting 30. Even though the event is…
What to do when you Suffer
As promised, here’s a longer post. It’s about how to handle suffering, advice from a young man whose constant companion was the pain that comes from it. From both his life and the insight he gained as a spirit guide, he’s well qualified to give us the guidance we need–probably all of us! And with that…
The Root of Suffering
I’m sorry that their was no post yesterday. I thought I’d take the holiday off. I hope you all took the time to feel thankful for the great Martin Luther King, Jr. He did so much for so many, and I look forward to interviewing him. Today’s post is about suffering. It’s very relevant given…
Struggle
In order to fully grasp and get the most out of our human experience, it’s essential to understand the anatomy of our struggles and of suffering in general. Throughout this book, Erik has helped me understand what I struggle with the most, why I do and what it takes to overcome it. I also came…
It’s All About Perspective
In the beginning of this channeling session, I asked about the hardships one of our family friends had to endure during much of her youth. For obvious reasons, I’ve changed her name to protect her privacy. But I share this with you, because many of us struggle with adversity at some time in our lives,…
The Gift of Human Struggles
I’m reposting this because my blog crashed, and I had to restore it from a backup on the server. Unfortunately, the backup was created before I posted this. Sorry! Many of us have had a life filled with hardships and tragedies. I look back on mine and see a path littered with potholes, some the…
Best of Erik: A Break From Being Human
This repost is about respite. A break from the grief of losing someone we love. A break from being mired in daily struggle. A break from being human. This is the first time Erik spoke to me without the need of a question prompt. He spoke with solemn passion. How timely. Erik: You know, Mom,…
Why Are We Here?, Part Two
One of you guys very astutely brought to my attention that I typed, “What” instead of “Why” in yesterday’s title. Oops. My mind isn’t what it used to be! Also, I have a brief announcement: I’m going to be out of town on a cruise (yay) from this Sunday until the following Saturday, so unless…
How to Recover from the Past
Many of you have stumbled onto the blog from various places, including the Channeling Erik YouTube channel. I invite you to buy a copy of my book, My Son and the Afterlife. It’s available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, other online booksellers and brick and mortar bookstores. Remember that by doing so, you’ll receive an…
The Little Peach Tree
My son, Lukas, planted a peach tree some years back, but in a corner of the yard where the soil is terrible and full of clay. Sunshine there is slim to none, and it hasn’t had leaves on it since I can remember. I figured it was dead and told my self that eventually I would…
Human Experience: The Basics, Part One
Yay, this is the last of the accidentally published posts! Before you read on though, I have some announcements. First, no one guessed Erik’s first set of wheels! 🙁 It’s a baby walker! (although the baby in the photo is not him.) I’d also like to announce that sweet, sweet blog member, Amy Cofeltt,…
Knowing What He Knows Now
We have a winter storm warning here in Houston. Unbelievable. I can only imagine what you Northerners are going through! Bundle up people! It’s a great time to sit in a cozy chair, wrap yourself in a blanket, drink a mug of hot cocoa and read through the archives! Me: If you were to be…
Best of Erik: For Those Who Struggle
Me: Okay, let’s ask some questions that are hopefully going to help our listeners. What advice do you have for those who are struggling? Jamie: Erik’s sits off to my right. Erik: What kind of struggle are we talking about? Me (laughing): Well, I thought you’d be able to help me with that one! They…
Are You Lonely?
Me: Why do some of us feel lonely? Is that along the same lines (as in yesterday’s post) or are there other reasons? Erik: No, you can totally, straight out be human for centuries and have that lonely feeling. That could be that you have such an intense memory or connection to the afterlife, Heaven,…
Do You Feel Like You Don’t Belong?
Me: Here we are for Part Four of the Woo-woo Guru’s session about the human experience. Jamie (smiling and rubbing her nose): Erik loves that title. He’s cracking up. Me: Let’s talk about some of the struggles people have. There are some people who feel like they don’t belong. Can you tell us what that’s…
For Those Who Struggle
Me: Okay, let’s ask some questions that are hopefully going to help our listeners. What advice do you have for those who are struggling? Jamie: Erik’s sits off to my right. Erik: What kind of struggle are we talking about? Me (laughing): Well, I thought you’d be able to help me with that one! They…
The Best of Erik: Stepping in Dog Shit
Me: When things go awful in one’s life, what’s the best way to handle it? Faith? Letting go? How? Erik: Come on! That’s a really broad question, Mom. We first have to know what’s awful, and we have to identify it for each individual. Then we have to go into the same fucking talk we…
A Break From Being Human
As the holidays approach, some of us long for a break. A break from the grief of losing someone we love. A break from being mired in daily struggle. A break from being human. This is the first time Erik spoke to me without the need of a question prompt. He spoke with solemn passion….
Stepping in Dog Shit
Bet you guys are scratching your heads on this one. The title is all Erik, so don’t shoot the messenger. Me: When things go awful in one’s life, what’s the best way to handle it? Faith? Letting go? How? Erik: Come on! That’s a really broad question, Mom. We first have to know what’s awful,…
