As much as I hesitate to post anything remotely political, I know the Universe put it out there for me to ask for a reason so here goes. Note that Erik includes himself as a United States citizen still, so you’ll see him use “we” rather than “you all” or “you.” I don’t know why, but that surprised me a little, perhaps because he really doesn’t “live” in the U.S. anymore. Anyway, here goes. Please be gentle and don’t shoot the messenger (gulp).
Channeling Transcript
Me: Will the U.S. retain its superpower status or will it collapse financially or otherwise? A lot of people want to know that.
Jamie: Will what?
Me: The United States, uh—
Jamie: —Keep its, I’m sorry, he keeps interrupting!
Me: Well, here, I’ll let him talk! What do you want to say, Sweetie?
Jamie (laughing): Oh, he’s just harassing me.
We both giggle.
Me: Will the U.S. retain its superpower status and its ability to help others or will it eventually collapse?
Erik: It’ll eventually collapse.
Me: Oh, wow. Timeframe?
Erik: It’s not an overnight thing and it’s not a rumbling thing. It’ll just gently lose power. We’re always seen as the place to gain more freedom. It’s always going to do its best to focus on the people.
Me: Okay.
Erik: But you’ll find that, uh, it’s a financial thing, because we’ll find ourselves so in debt that we can’t keep up. Where it’s going to fall apart is as we give away our resources to allow other people to do this work or that work. Outsourcing. One day we’ll wake up and we don’t have anything left to supply ourselves and the other countries will realize they have us paralyzed.
Me: Oh, no!
Erik: Yeah, and we won’t be financially able to back it up. Some of it has already happened. The Depression—
Jamie: And he puts up his finger.
Erik: NOT the recession. That was a Depression and it was greater than the one in the 1920s.
Me: Wow!
Erik: But the goddamn marketing likes to treat us like babies; they put blindfolds on us just to try to make us be happy.
Me: So will this all create some sort of national security problem? Will we be taken over by another country? Will there be chaos and panic in the streets?
(Long pause)
Erik: Nope. No takeover.
Pretty short answer for such a long pause!
Me: So, maybe some good will come out of it! Maybe we’ll lose some of our arrogance, at least on the part of our government.
Erik: Yes! And our love for material possessions at the expense of the spiritual. Material stuff isn’t bad unless it displaces love and compassion and other spiritual things.
Me: Okay, good!
Erik: But the one thing that will continue is the entertainment business. The U.S. will still be king of the hill there.
Jamie listens to Erik for a while, then asks him: I wonder. Are we really?
Erik: Yeah, especially in movies.
Me: Well, will we still have our freedoms? Will we still be “The Land of the Free?”
Erik: We’ll still have freedom, but not all of the resources that we’ve grown used to. So, the choices will be narrowed, but we’ll still have choice.
Me: Okay. So no more questions like “paper or plastic?” Oh, I have this one concern from a blog member who’s heard rumors that scores of Americans will be rounded up in vans and boxcars and then will be killed. There’s some government involvement of some sort. Something about the government. Supposedly, there are already a whole bunch of federal detention centers all over the country poised and waiting to be filled. Will that happen (gulp)?
Erik: Mom, you can’t do that to a whole country!
Me: No, not ALL Americans! Stanley, the blog member who’s been a part of the channeling Erik family from the very beginning, voices considerable concern that some groups will be rounded up, kind of like an American Holocaust.
Erik (giggling): I LOVE Stanley, but sometimes he gets a little too worried. It’s like when we put our finger on something, it triggers him to be more alert. He gets triggered to get alert about certain things. But what’ll happen is just the financial breakdown. We’re ants. No person in power wants to take the time to smash ants. We’re the worker bees, and there’s not that kind of life or death war happening on our territory. It’s all about resources. The scariest thing coming is—
Jamie (chuckling): He’s kind of backtracking.
Erik (with sarcasm): Damn, this is just a conversation of JOY!!
Me (in mock placation): I know, Baby, but well get to some fun stuff in a minute! Wait for it…wait for it…
Erik: If you really want to talk about scary stuff, let’s talk about how fragile we are as a human race. We’ve relied so much on Internet, on food being in the grocery stores, and that all you have to have is money to get your food.
Me: Uh huh.
Erik: Well that exchange is gonna break down. It’s not gonna break down for years and years—
Jamie (to Erik): Wait. (pause) Do you— Okay, okay.
Erik: It WILL break down like within the next two to three years, but it won’t break down for years at a time.
(At this point, I’m making a huge mental grocery list. Best to be prepared.)
Erik: One month, even just one month of not being able to do that is scary for a lot of people. Just think of the people who’ll starve!
Me: Oh no!
Erik: There’ll be mass suffering. Even if the Internet goes down, think of the companies that’ll be paralyzed, people who can’t function. What we have to tell people is, yeah, this is nice, but you need to learn how to run your company, access your money, run your household and do everything else without a computer, without electricity—
Me: Learn how to survive off the grid!?
Erik: Off the grid. That’s where people need to be.
Jamie listens to Erik for a long time, then says: He tells me he’s so sure about it, not because of internal wars or because of 2012—
Me: Um hm.
Erik: No, the magnetic poles in the earth combined with the solar flare-ups—these can easily shift; these subtle electromagnetic frequencies can damage our equipment, cause headaches, stomachaches and misery, and the solar flares can heat up and damage our satellite systems, and there we are, simple as that! Paralyzed as a world.
Me: Wow. So what resources are going to be scarcer? Everything? Food, money, that sort of thing?
Erik: Yeah.
Me: So maybe this will help us become empowered as individuals and as communities. Maybe this will be a wonderful lesson to learn that scarcity is an illusion and that together, we can break down that fictitious wall for ourselves and others in the spirit of love, cooperation and compassion. That’ll be a huge test for us, huh? No more “paper or plastic?” The real choice will be “Love or fear?”
Erik: Bingo.
Me: Well, I guess there’ll be some down time for the blog. Oh, sadness. I just hope humanity chooses the path of Love and abundance.
Erik: Yep, it’ll all work out. It’ll all be okay.
A quick announcement: Today, I finished asking all of the questions intended for the first book and will start cutting, pasting, sorting, compiling and, well, basically untangling it into a respectable book form.
Oh, and a few hours after the end of the session, I received a (very rare) email from Jamie. Remember that the Erik she knows and sees is the one who comes into her center during the sessions. (Although she also claims he visits to help with the sessions for other clients or just to make a nuisance of himself.) She sees him in an almost-solid form, but she’s never truly known what he looked like in “life.”
when i hung up erik wanted me to look at the blog. i have only been there three times. i have read it twice. i feel the more i distance myself from it the better the readings will be. maybe that is just me:) but there is a link you have called media gallery. i feel like i have seen a ghost…….. that video of erik singing….. OMG that is so how his mouth moves. the sound of his voice etc…. wow i am actually a little freaked out how “real” he is.
and the other photos…. how sweet you have shared this with everyone.
Erik is here again…..
he says he wanted me to see photos of him.
i guess he trusts me now huh?:)
i am so touched he made me sit down and look.
thanks you elisa for all you do.
With Love and Light,
Jamie Butler
An hour or two later, she sends a second email:
i just saw there are more videos and photos..
i am in tears.
wow
With Love and Light,
Jamie Butler
It must give a psychic medium such a sense of acknowledgement and confirmation that the spirit they channel is actually the same one that inhabited a body on earth. Pretty cool!
I brought up the idea of her offering email readings. This would entail you submitting questions by email to her. Generally, this is much less expensive and would be more convenient for our members who live outside of the United States. Would that interest any of you?
Now, for those of you who haven’t done so yet, please browse through the Media Gallery. If you memorize the sound of Erik’s voice, you can channel him pretty easily, being that he’s such a chatterbox! (Sorry Erik, but you are.) It just takes a little practice every night. If any of you HAVE successfully channeled Erik, share your secrets with the rest of the class!
