Don’t let the title scare you. I found this question, posed by Tony, fascinating.

Me: Here’s a question from blog member, Tony: Seeing as how this earth will some day no longer exist, what will become of us in the afterlife. Do or will we reincarnate to other planets or worlds? In other words, what ties do we have to the planet Earth?

Erik (yelling and laughing at the same time): We already reincarnate on other planets and dimensions. Just remind him of that.

Me: Okay.

Erik: And tell him we’re not earthbound spirits. We’re multi-dimensional beings that can survive on other planets and in other places.

Me: So, what kind of ties do we have to planet Earth? Is there something special about it compared to other planets? Is there something unique about it? I guess each planet can have something unique about it, but what makes the earthly plane so unique for us?

Erik: Well, it just sustains the human life form. It’s like asking why a snowy mountain so special to skiing?

Me: Okay. So, being in the human body is important to our spirit because why? Does it better allow us to play our roles—to be in costume to play our roles?

Erik: To play our roles, to learn the definition of love, to feel the extremes of—

Jamie (to Erik): I know, I know.

Erik: —pain and suffering.

Me: So, we couldn’t just do that as discarnate spirits on Earth, I guess.

Erik: Right.

Me: Interesting. Why not?

Erik: That vibrational energy doesn’t exist, doesn’t grow.

Me: Oh, I see. So, you have to have that lower vibrational energy in order experience that duality.

Erik: Yep.

Remember when I asked everyone to write something about what Erik means to us? I’d like to continue to share this from time to time. Here’s a lovely tribute from Mommazee. I can just see Erik selling with pride. Wait, as I type this, I actually feel goosebumps on my left calf, so yes, that’s Erik saying,”Thank you, Mommazee!” Aw!! Wow, those goosebumps continue to get stronger! He must really be tickled pink!

Elisa,

First of all, I’d like to say thank you for all that you do.  You give up so much of your own time and money and energy, to change people’s lives for the better, and the world too!

About Erik,

I’m not sure when it was exactly that I came upon your blog, it was by accident.  I think it was September/October of 2011.  It occurred right after my son told me he was seeing purple orbs in his room at night, and I had been searching online for what it could be.  I had seen some things about it being spirits, then I got into the afterlife stuff, and eventually found your blog when another celebrity interview on thestir.cafemom.com lead me to your blog (someone commented that you do better celebrity channeling).

I had been heavy into this church called the Church Of God (World Mission Society, Christ Ahn Sahnghong is their Jesus)–I have asked you earlier to add him to your list) since early 2011, and after reading here and there about the afterlife and spirits, I was feeling pretty conflicted.  I always had this doubt in my heart that this religion could not possibly be true, nor could any of them, it just never sat right with me, in my heart.  They told me that whoever is not saved, will go to hell, and the Rapture is coming soon because we are in the End Times.  I always wondered in my head how ALL these people were going to hell, even good people.  How could God be so unfair?  I worried for all my family and friends.  It was truly depressing, and I didn’t want to believe it.  I started to withdraw myself and family from them, because I started to see that it was kind of cult-ish, in that the people there were so devoted, they spent their entire lives there when they were not at work, on a daily basis.  I wanted to have a life, but they were making me feel bad about it.

Anyway, this is around the time Erik came into my life and showed me the truth!  I remember after finding out through your blog, how it felt–total shock, amazement, and awe…and just KNOWING.  Erik must have been so happy to see the light go off in my head, and making fun of me, all at the same time, because it kind of freaked me out that we are never alone, and that he/any spirit could be in the room with me at any given time and they could hear my thoughts!  I had read about the pranks and it terrified me that it could happen to me at night (I am 99% sure Erik pranked me by twisting my curtains and tucking them behind the TV stand, thank God he did it during the day while I was not home!).  Every night I spent so much time thinking about it all before bed, and had crazy dreams during this time.  I do believe that a few times, I had some contact with spirit (I remember seeing a purple orb myself, which contained Jesus, in my dream, but when I opened my eyes, it was still there and I watched it move across the room).  I read the blog from the beginning and took it all in, and started reading other websites, blogs and books to do more research.  It was a very profound time in my life that I will never forget!

From then, I started to feel like part of the CE family, and I noticed that I talk to Erik like he’s right next to me, quite often, without even realizing it at first!  I always feel like I’m being watched, and I’m never alone, now that I know we have guides LOL  I see life totally different now that I know the truth, and it’s so comforting to know there is an afterlife and that nobody really dies.  This is huge for me, because my only fear in life was death of a loved one, as I have yet to experience that.  I’ve been so fortunate to have my loved ones stay with me here so far.  I thank Erik for giving me clarity, and the realization of my gift for being open minded, and able to distance myself emotionally from everything and see things for what they truly are.  I now know that all of my life experiences have led me to be this way for a reason, so that when the truth came along, I would see it (I was not raised religiously, and was exposed to Islam and Christianity only once I was old enough to think for myself).  I’ve always felt the connection to God, I knew there was more, and I knew that God sees me for who I am and doesn’t judge me.  I’m not sure how I knew this, but it was always there.  I’m thankful that I was open enough to delve into this afterlife business and learn more, and that I was not a skeptic. I would like to one day be able to channel and communicate freely with spirit, but I feel that just knowing what I know is enough for me right now.  He has taught us all so much about the nature of the human experience and the afterlife, and how we’re all connected.  I now live life happy and free, and no longer have the burden of doubt and fear.

Thank you Erik for changing my life for the better and putting me on to the truth!  I love you so much and am truly grateful for you and your mom 🙂   He is my ‘main man’ in the afterlife, since I don’t have any loved ones on the other side yet (I never knew my grandparents on either side, only met them as a child a handful of times, and while I’m sure they love me and watch over me, I don’t feel a connection there, to talk to them like I do Erik.
