Shruti and Alison asked that I share some things about the wildly successful Channeling Erik event in the U.K. I hope she has another one soon, but Shruti is going to wait until after she has her baby. Congratulations, Shruti!
Short Summary of the Event.
All CE peeps stayed together with Shruti and Alison in a cozy bungalow in the scenic of setting of Peak District. Everyone arrived a day before the event on the 26th of August and greeted each other like long lost family. There was laughter and tears, all were very emotional. Some people knew each other via Facebookand some were meeting for the very first time. People flew in from all over the world USA, France, Germany, Luxemborough and all over the UK.
First day of the event started early morning with an opening meditation and light language by Kari Meena. She did a wonderful job perking everyone up, grounding and protecting everyone to start the first channeling Erik session of the event. After this Shruti Kamble Transchchannled Erik for more than an hour in which Erik gave everyone the famous Erik hugs making everyone teary eyed and then talked about Enlightenment, time travel, soul contracts, conflicts and many other things that are now available on YouTube . This session was followed with a lunch break consisting of yummy sandwiches prepared in-house. The second session of the day consisted of opening up CE peeps up their own channeling abilities though various intuitive exercises. Many people discovered how easy it is to channel information through intuition. Erik was able to pop in during these activities and sneak in on peeps channeling. He was an important part of all these activities and helped everyone find their clairs. First day of the weekend ended with a closing off meditation and gratitude for Erik. Everyone was pretty tired after all that channeling.
Second day of the event started the same way with the opening mediation and light language by Kari Mena which was followed by a the second channeling Erik session of the event. Alison Ailfinn Allan channeled Erik for more than an hour. This session was so much fun and enlightening. There were lot of jokes and giggles. Erik was at his funny best and at the same time answered some very important questions about good, bad, separation, positivity and higher selves. The highlight of the session was when he connected all CE peeps via past life. This session was followed by a lunch break where we all enjoyed a vegan soup made in-house. The second session of the day consisted of learning to use tools to help intuition. With Erik’s guidance we talked about the importance of setting clear intentions, grounding and protecting when using tools like dowsing rods, pendulums and E-boards. We took advantage of the awesome British summer weather and took the dowsing rods and E-boards outside in the green fields attached to the bungalow. We tried to find Erik’s energy and each others energy. We had 3 E-boards on which we talked to Erik and asked some very interesting question, people invited their loved ones and celebrity spirits like Gandhi to talk to them via E-boards. The E-boards were a big success and people didn’t want to get off the E-boards till the day ended. We ended the second day feeling sad that our Erik weekend was now over. We made promising of meeting again and carrying on the tradition of CE event in UK.
All CE peeps now keep in touch via a WhatsApp chat group and have forged life long friendships.
Here are the videos, including the trance channeling:
Now for Part Two on boredom.
Erik: If a person is chronically bored, it may be that they’re not aware that it’s a sign that they need to get going. Then they get stuck in this place that’s like a precursor to depression. It’s a pattern they keep repeating. They’re like, “I’m bored; I’m bored; I’m bored,” and that’s all they focus on. They give it a lot of attention. They’ve forgotten to look at, “Well, what do I like?” Then when they try to think of it, they go, “Well, I can’t think of anything because I’m too bored.”
Me: Maybe they don’t know themselves well enough.
Erik: That’s what I was getting to. They don’t. For some reason, somewhere along the way, they got into a habit of believing they were just bored, and they get into a rut. You’ve got to fucking realize that. You’ve got to get your ass up, get out and do something. For some people, when they’re in a rut and they try to break that habit—say this chronically bored person gets out into the world, and everything still seems so boring. For some, once the brain tries to break those old habits, it still tries to hold on to those old patterns, those old connections. Then they’ll have these behaviors that try to pull them back into boredom. So they might sit there, and they’re out at a bar, which is something new for them, or maybe they’re hanging out with friends—
Me: Okay.
Erik: –and they start judging everybody. “This is why I’m bored. These people are boring.”
Me: So they rationalize their boredom?
Erik: Right. That just reinforces the habit and gets you to stay in boredom. You have to stop overanalyzing everything. This isn’t true for everyone. It’s just an example of what can hold a person in that place.
Me: Well, I think fear may be one thing that holds people in chronic boredom. They fear approaching and exploring the unknown.
Erik: Yes, for some people, but it usually wouldn’t be experienced as boredom. It’d be experienced as anxiety. Boredom is a form of apathy. It’s indifference. The world has lost its sense of wonder. They need to figure out how to reconnect to that. For some it’s a matter of going back and remembering what it was like when they were little like 5, 6, 10 years old when the world still seemed new. That can help them reconnect to that sense of awe at everything.
Me: Easier said than done, though.
Erik: Yes, but in one of the other sessions, we talked about play and how important that is.
Me: Yeah.
Erik: A lot of people who are bored don’t know how to play, or they do but they don’t engage in play. They’ve become apathetic, and play, itself, has become routine.
Me: So how does one play?
Erik: When it gets to be routine, you have to change it up. It’s all about change. If there’s a lesson—and there is a lesson in everything—boredom is about getting you to embrace change, to realize that things always change. Even if you repeat the same behaviors over and over again, your brain craves change so will no longer give you that charge anymore. A lot of what I’m saying here specifically applies to those who are very young. As some people get older, they don’t get bored with their routine. To them, it’s new every day.
Me: That’s dementia talking.
Robert laughs.
Robert: I knew you were going to say that because Erik said it in my head! That’s why I laughed.
Me: It’s like Groundhog Day every day!
Erik: I’m going to see a goldfish.
Robert (laughing): You’re terrible! Don’t make me say those things!
I have no idea what he’s talking about.
Erik: That’s just a testament to how everything is about perspective. So when the routine starts to wear you down, you have to change shit up.
Me: Okay. Any specific advice on how to change—
Erik: Get that shit, and throw it out the window!
Me: Any specific guide on how to—
Erik: Mom, I’ve been pretty specific, haven’t I?
Me: I guess so, but find a new friend? I mean, there are a lot of things. You can figure out a new hobby to explore.
Erik: All of these things are leading you to find out who you are. That’s where the specificity comes in because every person is very different. This is why you have to figure out what you like and don’t like.
Me: All right. Anything else about boredom before we go on?
Erik: Nah, I’m bored with this topic.
Robert and I laugh.
Me: I knew you were going to say that! I kind of am, too, but thank you. That was very helpful. Thank you, Robert, for being his voice, and thank you, guys, for watching!
Now that all of the cells in my body have stopped bleeding, I’m going to have my 2nd kickboxing session today. Wish me luck!
