I had a great Easter Sunday yesterday. We had Arleen hunt for her basket, and she found it pretty much right away with none of the usual, “You’re getting cold. Oh, now you’re getting hot. HOT LAVA!” Then she searched for confetti-filled Easter eggs in the backyard and cracked them all on our heads. Yay. Meanwhile, Lukas cooked his world famous brisket in the oven for 10 hours. It was melt-in-your-mouth tender and so delicious. Michelle and her hubby, Nick, did a crawfish boil for us, and those little guys were nice and spicy. I felt sorry for them, though, being tossed into boiling water while alive. I’m not sure how to feel about that. I kept telling myself it was their spiritual contract to die and be eaten that way, but who am I kidding? Frankly, I wouldn’t have done it, but I hold little sway over my adults children. Probably no sway, actually.
Then, after we ate and cleaned up, I hosted an adults only Easter hunt for my kids. I miss when they were little. First, it was the hardboiled, dyed eggs. Then, because little kids don’t usually like hardboiled eggs, we graduated to plastic eggs filled with candy. Eventually, when they were old enough to yawn at that, one of those eggs would have a 20 dollar bill in it. So the other day, I thought, why can’t they still hunt for something and tap into their inner child? So I got a bunch of six packs of a wide variety of beers, especially the IPA ones, then hid those beers everywhere in the front yard. I presented them with the empty cartons filled with Easter grass and told them to hunt away. They scrambled from bush to bush like eager little kids. It was so cute. So, a new tradition is born! Here are some videos and images.

Now, finally, today’s post.
Me: Here’s another one from a person.
Erik: Oh, really? A real person?
Me: A real person. A blog member. “When Erik goes to the other dimensions, do the “people” he meets appear in the form of their particular dimension and does he appear to them as “Erik” or do they all appear as some generic being of light?” Do they all just appear as beings of light?
Erik: Earlier in our conversation, I was talking about how things are about perspective. So if I encounter a being from another dimension, my perspective is to see them in the way that I need to see them. Then I will see them that way. It depends on my mood. If I’m feeling like Erik, and I want to see a hot girl with big tits –
Robert laughs.
Me: Of course.
Erik: Well, then I might want to see it that way. That individual will understand where my perspective is coming from, and we’ll work collaboratively together to give me what I want and to give them what they want.
Me: Okay.
Erik: Sometimes that happens, but what usually happens is a mix of the two. So I might see them partially from my perspective and partially from theirs. It happens in so many different ways. Sometimes they can show themselves as how they would have appeared in their version of the physical world, but really, when you’re over here, you kind of become uniform. A lot of times, it’ll just show up that way.
Me: So like a beam or ball of light? That sort of thing?
Erik: Yeah, how can I describe it? Sometimes it can be a beam or ball of light. There’s not just one way to say how it happens, really.
Me: Well, what do you usually appear as around your spirit buddies? What do you look like to them?
Robert (To Erik): Be serious!
Me: Him? No!
Robert: No, he can’t be serious!
Me: No.
Robert: Because he said, “I show myself as a chicken in a red uniform.”
Apparently this visual came with come clucking and chicken strutting.
Erik: What’s the thing I’m most seen as? I guess if I had to lump it all together and think about the most common way I’d say wisps of energy.
Me: Okay.
Erik: And it’s all multi-colored and shit like that.
Me: Wow.
Erik: Psychedelic shit.
Me: What do some of the people, these beings from other dimensions, look like. Can you describe a couple of them?
Erik: I have to think about that one because if I describe it, I’m going to have to put it in human terms, and the beings I see aren’t human.
Me: Yeah. Well you can just describe one, one that you think would fascinate us the most?
Robert: He’s showing me visuals. He told me that’s going to be the easiest way to describe it.
Me: Okay. Then you can describe what he’s giving you.
Robert: It’s very, very pretty. They have a silvery, shimmery—they’re silver and gold, white and other colors that I can’t even describe. They have an iridescence to them.
Me: Like opalescent?
Robert: Yeah, but that’s not the only thing. There are all these other different colors, too. It’s shimmery and wispy and smoky. How can I describe it? It’s like silver was in a cloud.
Me: Ah. Interesting.
Robert: But then there are crystalline structures that go out that appear to be solid but they’re not.
(Pause)
Robert: Okay, that’s a good analogy. Erik says the movie, Abyss—remember that creature that could take different shapes, and it was made out of water and looked solid?
Me: Mm hm.
Erik: And it looked kind of silvery. Image that form but around it is all this silver, gold and other colors are in a cloud with this iridescence interspersed within the cloud. Those are the coolest ones I’ve encountered. I like those the best.
Me: That’s awesome. Are they nice?
Erik: Yeah, they’re really cool, and they’re totally into getting high.
Robert (chuckling): Well you would say that!
Me: Yeah, of course. Is their afterlife different, or do all beings have the same afterlife?
Erik: No, no being has the same afterlife, Mom.
Me: Okay. So beings from Planet X don’t die and go to the same dimension you’re in?
Erik: We all go to the same dimension, but—
Me: Oh, okay. That’s what I meant. You have an afterlife based on what kind of beliefs you have about it and the reality to create for yourself there—
Erik: And what you need.
Me: And what you need. But it’s all the same dimension. Everybody in every universe goes to the same dimension when they die?
Erik: Yeah, but like in the physical world, there is a collective experience everybody can participate in, but everybody’s going through their own Heaven. You have your own version of Heaven, and you can get a sense of isolation with that.
Me: Sure.
Erik: It’s just you in your own little Heaven. You can have that, and in fact that’s what a lot of people do when they want to separate themselves and do their own self-examination, but there’s a collective experience, too.
Me: Okay.
Erik: And in that collective experience, we all agree on what forms to use, and we show ourselves as our universal form, which most humans would call light.
Me: Okay.
