Before we launch into today’s post, let’s talk about how we tell people we love them. I noticed that when I love someone, but am afraid of being vulnerable, I’ll say/write things like, “Love you,” “Luv you,” “Love ya,” etc. It seems so superficial to me in a way, and I feel it on a deeper level if I say/write those three powerful words, “I love you.” I don’t know why I’m bringing this up, really. I guess I just want to share my realization. Also, I’m still waiting for Jamie’s assistant to go over the alien interview before I transcribe and post it. Might take a while. 

Lastly, I received an email from a lovely blog member recently in which she expressed disappointment about how my reply to her first email seemed short and kind of generic. I want you all to know that I value every email and take each very seriously. I apologize for any misunderstanding in my communications with you guys. The only reason they may seem sort of short or blunt is because I receive so many of them and some are very long. As I’ve said before, I spend a minimum of 3 hours a day addressing them. That’s pretty overwhelming for me, and I really doing the best I can. So, just remember that every email I send is done so with love and care. 

Me: How exactly does thought create reality, and how can you manifest things energetically. I’m talking in terms of consciousness and energy.

Jamie (pondering): How can thought create reality?

Me: Yeah.

(Pause)

Jamie: Oh, he’s pretending to do some kind of magic trick.

Jamie mimes her getting a rabbit out of a hat, then says, “Voila!”

Erik: Thought creates reality with the use of [intent] and purpose.

Me: Okay.

Erik: Once you create what you want to create, you’ve got the name; you’ve got the language to describe it; you’ve got your heart behind it; you can see it and understand it, then you’re creating an energetic blueprint, and your life will start to unfold within that blueprint and will help manifest what you’re trying to bring into your life. If you’re not thinking about it, you’re not going to be getting it, and what I mean by thinking, remember the whole talk we had earlier that the consciousness is kind of like the veins or the tentacles that come off of the emotional core.

Me: Mm hm.

Erik: This is what’s reaching out and creating what’s in the blueprint. So, we’re powered by the gas in our heart, which is our emotions, then it goes up to the head, which puts it into context, laying it out to fit our human life, which is very linear. Then it pushes it out to the environment with all the tentacles, and this is what manifests what you’re looking for in your life.

Me: Well said.

Jamie: Did that make sense?

Me: It sure does. It’ll make more sense when I listen to it again, though.

Jamie laughs.

Okay, okay, I’ll give you a two-fer. That was was pretty short.

Me: All right, if our sense of self, or our soul, if you will, is separate from our brain, then why do things like being struck in the head influence consciousness?

Jamie: Being struck in the head?

Me: Yeah, like a severe head injury or alcohol, which puts our consciousness into all sorts of states.

Erik: Oh yeah, it does, because it screws up the tool that’s writing the whole thing. It screws up and breaks the luggage that keeps it all together. So any kind of physical or bodily harm like disease and so forth is going to screw up what we’re perceiving around us.

Me: Okay.

Erik: Pay attention, Mom.

Me: It’s hard! I have a grandbaby in my lap.

Jamie: He wants to talk to her so bad!

Me (to Arleen): Erik’s waving to you. Erik’s saying “hi” to you. You want to say “hi” to Erik?

Arleen: Where is Erik?

Jamie (to Arleen): He’s behind my computer.

Me (to Arleen): He’s right behind the computer.

Me: She had a birthday party—well, not a real one—and she set the table, put a bunch of fake food and all that and she set a place for you, Erik!

Erik: And I set down in the chair.

Me: Good!

Erik: But [the food] didn’t taste so good.

Jamie laughs.

Plastic usually isn’t all that tasty.

Me (to Arleen): He went to your party, though!

Me (to Erik): Okay, so anything else on that? Why do we lose consciousness when we have a serious head injury?

Erik: Yeah, because the tool is broken that’s running it. It’s like, um, we’re looking at the computer screen and when the computer screen is struck with something, why do we lose the visual? Why can’t we see the [image on] the computer screen anymore?

Me: I love your analogies!

Erik: Because it’s freaking broken! It’s not working right.

Jamie (to Erik): I know. (To me) He said the other word, but I said, “freaking.”

I chuckle.

Me: All right, is there anything else you want to say about this subject before we close.

Erik: Yeah, just remember how important it is to have physical health. Stop denying yourself physical health. If you know something’s wrong, attend to it! What’s your problem! Go take care of yourself, because when [the physical body] is in top working order, so will your other abilities be.

Me: That sounds wonderful.

Hmm. I need to go to the gym this afternoon. Dammit.

I love you, guys.
