My next few questions for Erik mirrored my penchant for understanding the underpinnings of life and reality. Consider me like a devout car enthusiast who spends hours under the hood of a ’57 Mustang marveling at its cylinder arrangement. Whatever, I don’t know enough about auto mechanics to put together a believable sentence here, but I know Mr. Auto Genius Erik is getting a big laugh, and I aim to entertain. Anyway, like the auto enthusiast, I yearn to know all I can about my own passion. Who are we. Why are we? How do we operate? What makes us tick? So I plow ahead with:
‘Erik, what are we, really?’
“I don’t know.”
Great, all that pent up excitement about uncovering the wonders of the universe and the secrets of the spiritual world is met with a big fat “Access Denied.”
“But I can get someone else to answer,” he adds, lifting my spirits a bit (no pun intended.)
Kim channels a soul with all the answers:
“We’re part of a big field of energy, of consciousness which is made of energy. And we’re individual segments of that consciousness, but we’re also the whole, kind of like a hologram which can be both the whole and parts of the whole at the same time.”
‘What is our purpose as parts and wholes of that field of consciousness?’ I ask.
“We try to seek lower entropy, both as separate units and as part of the whole. We project to the whole what we do individually. We are here to evolve to a higher level,” Mr. Know-It-All replies.
‘So what is that, actually? I know lower entropy means lower disorder or chaos, but what does that mean in practical terms? What’s the endpoint?’
“To remain in Heaven working with others who are still on the earthly plane striving to evolved, themselves.”
“Okay, I can see that as the endpoint for us as individual souls, but what about the whole? What’s our goal as the entire field of consciousness, as all the souls put together?”
“We seek love, unconditional love, as individuals and for the universe as a whole for each soul to embrace. That’s the lowest entropy. That’s the endpoint.”
Wow, that’s going to take some time to digest. I find this whole love equals energy thing fascinating, because when I unconditionally love someone, I feel this strange vibration, a sense that my soul is expanding beyond all limits. It feels electrical and invigorating, like I’m plugged in to some huge, benevolent energy source.
After a brief pause for reflection, I ask my next mind-bending question:
‘How does thought create reality?’
Erik answers this time, totally redeeming himself: “Though energy. One plus one equals two. So you have thoughts plus energy making a new reality.”
After an empty pause, I push for details: ‘Can you explain more?’
“Thoughts are projections of your electrical energy so when you’re thinking you are also channeling. You’re building your store of electrical energy and determining how much of it you can move through your body,” he replies, as though any moron should understand. I, of course, am totally in the dark, but I gather that he means thoughts, projected as intentions, are forms of energy that create matter and therefore reality, in accordance to Einstein’s E=mc2
‘Well how do you create realities together with other souls?’ I ask. ‘There must be some sort of cooperation, then, to have many souls living in the same thought-created environment, for example.’
“We agree to cooperate telepathically” Erik explains. “But there’s a caveat. You can turn into reality only that which dovetails with your destiny. If it doesn’t agree with your destiny, you can’t create it.”
‘I can’t imagine that people would want to create something that’s not part of their destiny,’ I say.
“Oh, a lot of people do!” he exclaims.
‘Well why wouldn’t it work? Why can’t you create your reality regardless of your destiny?’
“When we come to the earthly plane, we have a spiritual blueprint. Our thoughts and our actions must work toward accomplishing what’s on that spiritual blueprint. If we finish that, we can accomplish more. Say, for example, a woman is married to a rich dude and she’s miserable and wants out. But she knows she has to work full time if she divorces him. She might think, ‘I don’t want to. Can’t I just win the lottery?’ That’s not going to happen because no matter how much time, energy and passion she puts toward winning the lottery, she won’t, because it would derail her spiritual forward movement which includes developing independence and empowerment by getting a full time job and letting go of Mr. Sugar Daddy.”
Okay, I get it. Makes sense. But surely the rules of the game are different in the afterlife. I ask for clarification: ‘What about people who are on the other side, like you, Erik. You can pretty much create whatever reality you want, right?’
“Yep, no caveat there,” he confirms.
So now I know who we are, what our purpose is, how we create reality to ensure our spiritual evolution toward love all both individually and as a collective. I’ll sleep better tonight, won’t you? Thanks, Erik and Mr. Smarty Pants.
