1:35
Speaker 1: It's been a few years since you last joined me
1:37
Speaker 1: on Destination Unlimited. You were discussing your New York Times bestseller,
1:41
Speaker 1: The Power of Love, and today we will be sharing
1:45
Speaker 1: your seven week online program starting on March eighteenth with
1:48
Speaker 1: the Shift Network. It's entitled Next Level Mediumship. Now, before
1:53
Speaker 1: we discuss this exciting new program, let's do a little
1:55
Speaker 1: bit of a catching up. Okay, please share with our
1:59
Speaker 1: listeners your early path and how Mediumship came into your life.
2:03
Speaker 2: Wow, you know that's a very funny victory. I'm right
2:05
Speaker 2: now writing my autobiography because and it's a really good
2:09
Speaker 2: exercise and take your memory back. It's great. So I
2:11
Speaker 2: get back to the childhood, and in that space, I
2:14
Speaker 2: can tell exactly when I was a baby, when I
2:16
Speaker 2: was a toddler, I'd say I used to my parents
2:19
Speaker 2: and I'm just literally literally writing this chapter right now,
2:23
Speaker 2: and my parents would be in the bedroom on the
2:25
Speaker 2: crib when it was very nine thirty eight night, and
2:28
Speaker 2: they were in the living room, and I wanted to
2:29
Speaker 2: be with them. So I cried my eyes up every
2:31
Speaker 2: single night. And I remember that I calmed down because
2:35
Speaker 2: there was always a I saw these blue eyes in
2:37
Speaker 2: a corner of the room, and it was a man
2:39
Speaker 2: with white hair and blue eyes. And he used to
2:41
Speaker 2: come over to the crib I believe it was a crib,
2:43
Speaker 2: and he used to play with this mobile wooden mobile
2:46
Speaker 2: thing above me, and it fascinated me. It was probab
2:50
Speaker 2: when I was probably two years old than most, i'd say.
2:52
Speaker 2: And I remember years after that, my grandmother was going
2:54
Speaker 2: through a photograph album and she came to this photo.
2:57
Speaker 2: I said, wait a minute, who is that? Said, well,
2:59
Speaker 2: that's your grandfather, who died before you were born. So
3:02
Speaker 2: that was my very first awareness of a spirit. And
3:06
Speaker 2: as a child, I used to see spirits quite a bit.
3:08
Speaker 2: My mother used to say when I say prayers at
3:11
Speaker 2: night were very Catholic, and I say, Mommy, who are
3:14
Speaker 2: those people around the bed? But the lights around them said, oh,
3:16
Speaker 2: those are God's angels. You see them too. I used
3:19
Speaker 2: to see them a little girl. It runs on both
3:21
Speaker 2: sides of our family, so it's very normal. And I said, okay.
3:24
Speaker 2: So that was my reference was it was very normal.
3:26
Speaker 2: It didn't think anything strange to it, and it really
3:29
Speaker 2: just built and built, and I could see ours, colors
3:32
Speaker 2: and I know a new thing about people. As soon
3:34
Speaker 2: as they met too, I felt who they were. And
3:36
Speaker 2: then in my around puberty thirteen fourteen, w whatever that was,
3:40
Speaker 2: it stopped. And that ability came back to me in
3:43
Speaker 2: my early twenties when I went through a meditation and
3:46
Speaker 2: sot of meditation, and it came back full force, and
3:49
Speaker 2: there they were clearer. I could hear them very clearly
3:52
Speaker 2: and see them very clearly. That's my backgrounds.
3:56
Speaker 1: That's a blessing. And the fact that your mother is
4:00
Speaker 1: sort of gave you the permission to go ahead and
4:02
Speaker 1: share what you were experiencing is so wonderful. And it's
4:05
Speaker 1: a rare gift because many people, as children report things
4:08
Speaker 1: and their parents tell them they're imagining things. And to
4:11
Speaker 1: have someone really support you through that process, what a
4:13
Speaker 1: gift that was.
4:14
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think, of course, because she was that way.
4:17
Speaker 2: I think it's funny writing this whole thing about imagination
4:19
Speaker 2: right now. I think if children could keep their imagination
4:23
Speaker 2: going and at the age of six, seven, eight, when
4:25
Speaker 2: they become programmed by teachers and parents and doing this
4:29
Speaker 2: and doing that, and you know, I often say that
4:31
Speaker 2: teacher will say get an AA, do this, and in
4:33
Speaker 2: some way I think the child interprets said as, oh,
4:36
Speaker 2: that will give you more love. If I please this
4:38
Speaker 2: person and they approve of me and do the right thing,
4:41
Speaker 2: I get more love. And I think that we keep
4:44
Speaker 2: that sometimes a lot of people keep that sense of
4:47
Speaker 2: trying to get approval from others through through a major
4:50
Speaker 2: part of their life. And I have found in my
4:52
Speaker 2: experience and up in mid thirties, I work with people
4:55
Speaker 2: and so when pointing in their mid thirties, they say,
4:57
Speaker 2: wait a minute, my life isn't working for me. I
5:00
Speaker 2: don't feel connected. And the reason why is because they're
5:04
Speaker 2: living somebody else's life, not their own life, and a
5:07
Speaker 2: lot of become dormats and trying to get approval, and
5:10
Speaker 2: once they take back their power, they begin to live
5:13
Speaker 2: their own life and so much more happy and fulfilled.
5:16
Speaker 1: Very interesting that you share that, because one of the
5:19
Speaker 1: things that happened to me is a child. When I
5:20
Speaker 1: was eight years old, my father took ill and prior
5:23
Speaker 1: to that time, I never felt loved by him. And
5:26
Speaker 1: I became part of his caretaking team with my mother,
5:28
Speaker 1: and I started feeling loved by him, and that programmed
5:31
Speaker 1: in my young mind if you care for others you
5:33
Speaker 1: will be loved. And of course, becoming a people pleaser
5:37
Speaker 1: and running around and taking care of everyone else until
5:39
Speaker 1: my mid to late thirties, well, was just not the
5:43
Speaker 1: best thing because it affected my health. It affected my
5:45
Speaker 1: emotional and physical health. And I finally learned to use
5:48
Speaker 1: the N word to say no when appropriate, and that
5:52
Speaker 1: changed my life. That really changed my life.
5:54
Speaker 2: So I say most people, most people haven't do that,
5:57
Speaker 2: and I'm part of my work now with past ten
6:00
Speaker 2: years is reminding people who they are, that they have
6:03
Speaker 2: the power within their own soul. What other people think
6:06
Speaker 2: of you as none of your business. Because everybody is
6:08
Speaker 2: unique and different in their own distinct way. And if
6:12
Speaker 2: we are our own selves in a distinct way, that
6:14
Speaker 2: is really important because we can teach others, you know,
6:17
Speaker 2: I guess I could say the vibration that we are
6:19
Speaker 2: and not. It's so funny when you try to be
6:22
Speaker 2: somebody that you're not, it never works, that works. So
6:25
Speaker 2: it's true.
6:26
Speaker 1: Yeah, you are a fact based medium. What does that mean?
6:32
Speaker 2: A fact or based or in evidential medium, which means
6:36
Speaker 2: my job, my job, my mediumship has always been it's
6:41
Speaker 2: called evidential mediumship, which I am for the past forty years.
6:46
Speaker 2: The way I work as a medium is I'm able
6:49
Speaker 2: to bring through evidential details such as names, addresses, places, memories, relationships,
6:58
Speaker 2: even going down so far as the might say, you
7:01
Speaker 2: know you have my gold bracelet, and the person might say, well,
7:03
Speaker 2: I don't have the great gold bracelet, so well, you
7:06
Speaker 2: know this lady here is telling me your mother tell
7:08
Speaker 2: me you have a gold bracelet. So let me let
7:10
Speaker 2: her show me. And if you're very very interesting victor
7:13
Speaker 2: that the mother will. And every spirit is different with
7:15
Speaker 2: their communication, but then Mother will take my mind's eye,
7:19
Speaker 2: the third eye, and she'll bring me on a journey.
7:21
Speaker 2: I've got up staircases, gone down the hallway and say,
7:24
Speaker 2: it's a second bedroom on the right. We walk in there,
7:27
Speaker 2: and I just Mother's giving this this vision. So I'm
7:29
Speaker 2: describing the hallway, I'm describing the carpet, and they go
7:32
Speaker 2: into the room and said, there's a dresser room on
7:34
Speaker 2: the right side against the wall. The bed is of
7:36
Speaker 2: the left. I want to go to the second drawer.
7:38
Speaker 2: I want to open it up into the left side
7:40
Speaker 2: as a little wooden box. And the person would say,
7:42
Speaker 2: that's exactly right. Oh my goodness, I've forgotten that. So
7:46
Speaker 2: it's those details that the spirit people are creating in
7:49
Speaker 2: my mind to prove that consciousness survives, that there is
7:53
Speaker 2: indeed no death whatsoever. And that's the most important part
7:57
Speaker 2: of my work as an evidential medium, that is to
8:00
Speaker 2: bring a proof that the conscious survives. That's the goal
8:03
Speaker 2: for evidential mediumship.
8:05
Speaker 1: You are also a prolific author with many best selling books.
8:10
Speaker 1: In Wisdom from Your Spirit Guides, a handbook to contact
8:13
Speaker 1: your soul's greatest teachers, you share that every soul experiencing
8:18
Speaker 1: a physical incarnation is in constant although subconscious contact with
8:23
Speaker 1: their spirit guides. How may we develop a more direct
8:26
Speaker 1: and conscious relationship with our guides?
8:29
Speaker 2: Well, you know, I've put into this new course as
8:31
Speaker 2: part of it and because as part of my development
8:34
Speaker 2: as a medium was to become mindful, to become aware
8:38
Speaker 2: of the space around us. So the space is around us,
8:41
Speaker 2: and in the course is going to talk about a
8:43
Speaker 2: little bit, but in my own development there's a sense
8:46
Speaker 2: of being very open and aware to the subtleness of energy.
8:51
Speaker 2: So I could describe it, and I have people sit
8:53
Speaker 2: in the quiet, and they sit in the quiet or
8:55
Speaker 2: the stillness of their soul, and it's very interesting when
8:58
Speaker 2: one does that and they go from the head to
9:01
Speaker 2: the heart that bring their sense down to their heart
9:03
Speaker 2: self and they begin to have no warners to who
9:05
Speaker 2: they are as a soul being right, and it's really
9:08
Speaker 2: a soul where here are souls having you an experience,
9:11
Speaker 2: not the other way around. And I really talk about
9:14
Speaker 2: as you become aware of that soul self and that
9:17
Speaker 2: space within you and then around you, you become aware
9:21
Speaker 2: of the different subtle energies that are in that space
9:24
Speaker 2: or spaces I should say. Many people call it the
9:26
Speaker 2: oric field or the ore of the oric fields. I
9:29
Speaker 2: want to say, because I sense over and see areas
9:32
Speaker 2: in different levels and colors all around us. And within
9:35
Speaker 2: that space we become aware of loved ones, guides, teachers
9:39
Speaker 2: who have been some have been with us for many lifetimes,
9:42
Speaker 2: some are family members. There are our team, our spiritual team.
9:46
Speaker 2: So the more we sit in the quiet, and by
9:49
Speaker 2: doing that, we're opening up the door to the awareness
9:52
Speaker 2: of the team, the guides and be able to have
9:55
Speaker 2: them influence us, communicate with us. And it's more energetic
9:59
Speaker 2: than than words. Sometimes you get words in your mind,
10:02
Speaker 2: but you first have to become aware of that space
10:04
Speaker 2: in the quiet of yourself, and it's amazing that the
10:10
Speaker 2: silence is very loud, and but one has to have
10:13
Speaker 2: the patience because it's a process. You know, in this
10:16
Speaker 2: age right now, people and things doing very quickly, very fast.
10:19
Speaker 2: They want a spiritual bypass, and that is not worth
10:22
Speaker 2: it because you want to be able to sustain that space,
10:27
Speaker 2: the energy around you and have, if you will, that
10:30
Speaker 2: real connection with your guides, with your teachers. For instance,
10:34
Speaker 2: I'll talk about, you know, what is a healing guide
10:36
Speaker 2: feel like? And I give exercise is about you know,
10:39
Speaker 2: I'm going to sense what that healing vibration is. And
10:42
Speaker 2: you can sense what an inspire is, you can sense
10:46
Speaker 2: what a healing guide is. You can sense what a
10:49
Speaker 2: philosophy guide might feel like. And the more you open
10:53
Speaker 2: yourself up, if you say, open the door to that,
10:55
Speaker 2: the more they will come to you. It will be
10:58
Speaker 2: they'll more be part of your self. And we have
11:01
Speaker 2: to remember that, and this is very important that we
11:04
Speaker 2: have this awareness. The perspective is that and my percentages
11:09
Speaker 2: might be off crypture, but I think I'll appreciate this.
11:11
Speaker 2: So I say, like, thirty percent of your soul is
11:14
Speaker 2: within the confines of the physical body, while seventy percent
11:17
Speaker 2: is outside the physical body, so this is just a
11:20
Speaker 2: big toe to the soul. And if you can get
11:23
Speaker 2: into that space around you that seventy percent, well, your
11:26
Speaker 2: life opens up and your experience right and new beautiful
11:30
Speaker 2: things and become more aware of who you are as
11:32
Speaker 2: a soul.
11:33
Speaker 1: It's interesting that you shared that and talked about the
11:36
Speaker 1: oric field because I shared with you that my wife
11:38
Speaker 1: and I witnessed one of your sessions in the early
11:40
Speaker 1: two thousands at a huge theater in Manhattan, and during
11:44
Speaker 1: the time that you were bringing through the information, there
11:47
Speaker 1: was this beautiful purple aura around you, and as the
11:50
Speaker 1: information was being transferred to you, we saw a flex
11:53
Speaker 1: of golden light and we confirmed this to each other independently,
11:56
Speaker 1: so we were absolutely seeing that. What a beautiful thing
11:59
Speaker 1: to see.
12:00
Speaker 2: You're not the only one to say that to me,
12:01
Speaker 2: So the many many years have been doing this, and
12:03
Speaker 2: it's called the demonstration. I remember that that place that
12:06
Speaker 2: I did that as well, and because I just come
12:09
Speaker 2: from Schenectady and I was very ill, it was sick,
12:12
Speaker 2: and I did a really good demonstration well being sick.
12:14
Speaker 2: I am not forget it. But there are a lot
12:16
Speaker 2: of demonstrations that have been around the world where the
12:19
Speaker 2: people in the audience and I'll come up here, so
12:21
Speaker 2: I have to tell you this. I have to tell you.
12:23
Speaker 2: I said, beautiful purple colors around you when you're communicating
12:26
Speaker 2: and when do I bringing through spiritual awareness or education,
12:30
Speaker 2: there were these gold flex or gold light or rays
12:33
Speaker 2: coming to you. So I've had that quite a bit.
12:36
Speaker 2: So thank you for the confirmation in that.
12:38
Speaker 1: One of the things that you've touched upon in many
12:40
Speaker 1: of your works is how we may create sacred space
12:43
Speaker 1: for these experiences. What are some of the techniques you offer, Well.
12:47
Speaker 2: Some of the things I do with a sacred space,
12:49
Speaker 2: which is really important. I think. I think that's true
12:52
Speaker 2: just in everyday life. I think that we have to
12:53
Speaker 2: have a space where we can rejuvenate and recharge. You know,
12:57
Speaker 2: there's so much going on in the world, and there's
12:58
Speaker 2: so much energy being thrown out there. And I often say,
13:01
Speaker 2: you know, you walk into a sea of thought, because
13:04
Speaker 2: thoughts are things, and everyone sends their thoughts out there,
13:07
Speaker 2: and you know, sensitive people impasted have to be mindful
13:10
Speaker 2: of whose energies around them or they're holding on to.
13:13
Speaker 2: So I think that a space sacred space, a space
13:16
Speaker 2: you create in your house or apartment where you live,
13:18
Speaker 2: and I would just say, reserve that for your spiritual
13:20
Speaker 2: work or for you to get back to yourself. So
13:24
Speaker 2: what I do is, it's funny. I sit in a
13:27
Speaker 2: space of a closet, it's a walking closet, and I
13:30
Speaker 2: sit there and I make sure it's dark, and I
13:34
Speaker 2: just sit down and I become aware of the space,
13:36
Speaker 2: myself and my breath and you know, inhale and exhale,
13:40
Speaker 2: and I really become aware of my soul self. And
13:42
Speaker 2: that's specially earlier about becoming the of the ork field.
13:45
Speaker 2: So that's a space, a reserved for that work if
13:48
Speaker 2: you will. Now, if first people do spiritual work or
13:52
Speaker 2: they want to endeavor and to open up their soul self,
13:55
Speaker 2: I would say reserve a space. You know, a close
13:58
Speaker 2: but I mean a corner in your room is really
14:00
Speaker 2: reserve just for the work of your soul. It looks
14:04
Speaker 2: what your soul space. And within that space, one should
14:07
Speaker 2: put things that enlighten them, that bring them up, that
14:09
Speaker 2: bring higher energy. So things they enjoy, whether it's some flowers,
14:14
Speaker 2: whether it's incense, whether it's gentle music, things that speak
14:17
Speaker 2: to their soul and I think when they sit in
14:20
Speaker 2: that space, whether it's because of your meditation or do
14:23
Speaker 2: spiritual work or a course, if you will, you're it's
14:25
Speaker 2: almost like amplifying your soul self. And one will know
14:29
Speaker 2: then the day of to day that if they go
14:30
Speaker 2: into that one space, that's where it's kind of it
14:32
Speaker 2: opens them up, it becomes amplified. So that's what I
14:35
Speaker 2: would say sacred space is for me.
14:38
Speaker 1: Yeah, in your book The Power of Love, you emphasize
14:41
Speaker 1: the importance of keeping our hearts open in daily life
14:45
Speaker 1: and a world filled with stress and chaos and intolerance.
14:49
Speaker 1: How do we do this?
14:51
Speaker 2: Aren't we being tested right now?
14:54
Speaker 1: Absolutely?
14:55
Speaker 2: I mean, and we've all chosen it, Which is interesting
14:57
Speaker 2: because as souls, we've chosen to come back to this
14:59
Speaker 2: part good time, this particular space, in this particular school earth,
15:03
Speaker 2: to experience a lot of these things and to really
15:07
Speaker 2: I feel, to influence others with love. So I think
15:12
Speaker 2: that one can never forget who they are, and I
15:14
Speaker 2: think it's a wonderful opportunity. I think many things are
15:17
Speaker 2: opportunities for us, and these are rich, rich opportunities to
15:21
Speaker 2: really connect with who you are as a soul and
15:23
Speaker 2: to realize what's important to you, you know, assess what's
15:26
Speaker 2: really important in your life. And I've done this now
15:30
Speaker 2: for years, Victor, but I do it every day. I'm
15:33
Speaker 2: aware of it every day. Is that I'm aware of
15:36
Speaker 2: my interaction with people. So I'm aware of my heart
15:39
Speaker 2: space and I call it my heart light. And I
15:42
Speaker 2: become aware of it before I leave my house, opening
15:44
Speaker 2: up that space, just just being I when we say
15:47
Speaker 2: opening up, being aware of it, so i'mwhare of that.
15:49
Speaker 2: I call it a green light the heart and opening
15:51
Speaker 2: up that space. And I say, live a heart forward.
15:54
Speaker 2: So every place you go to, you know and energetically
15:58
Speaker 2: you're making imprit in this space. I want to bring
16:01
Speaker 2: the highest level of love possible. How do I do that? Well,
16:04
Speaker 2: let's say I'm going to a grocery store or a
16:06
Speaker 2: pet store and there's someone trying to find something. I
16:10
Speaker 2: somebody will help them as it can help you, and
16:13
Speaker 2: that I work you right, more than happy to help you.
16:15
Speaker 2: Or a cash register personal say how are you today?
16:17
Speaker 2: Just giving a little validation, a little bit of an acknowledgment,
16:21
Speaker 2: because every single person needs validation, and it's just reminding
16:25
Speaker 2: them the world connected that we're all heart people. No
16:27
Speaker 2: matter what happens around us, within us, we are our
16:31
Speaker 2: own loving beings. So it's very interesting. I often use
16:34
Speaker 2: the analogy that there could be a tree on a
16:37
Speaker 2: mountain and all the seasons change. The tree will go
16:40
Speaker 2: through changes, but the tree is rooted to the mountain,
16:44
Speaker 2: so you're still there. Same with us. We're always going
16:47
Speaker 2: to be us, but the conditions around us may shift.
16:51
Speaker 2: But it's how we are able to be stable and
16:54
Speaker 2: be ourselves within these conditions and demonstrate that vibration, that
16:58
Speaker 2: frequency of love. And part of doing that is also
17:02
Speaker 2: being patient, right, being patient and having a big compassion
17:06
Speaker 2: with passion and realizing, here's a good one. This opens
17:09
Speaker 2: the doors quite a bit. That non judgment is a
17:12
Speaker 2: way so many humans feel like they have to judge another.
17:16
Speaker 2: And I think they judge another because they want to
17:19
Speaker 2: feel empowered. They want to feel better than that person.
17:22
Speaker 2: So if they put the other person down, they'll feel better.
17:25
Speaker 2: And I just have to realize, you know, I try
17:28
Speaker 2: to tell people, you know that soul is on a
17:31
Speaker 2: certain level. We have souls. Here are many different levels
17:34
Speaker 2: we have. Baby souls are just coming into the world.
17:36
Speaker 2: Will be the money and power and war or whatever
17:39
Speaker 2: is the way it is. We have post graduate souls.
17:42
Speaker 2: I believe that healing, compassion and lights and happiness and
17:47
Speaker 2: you know empowerment is a way and the middle souls
17:50
Speaker 2: which you want to figure out both ways. So because
17:52
Speaker 2: you have those three levels and maybe there are more,
17:55
Speaker 2: it creates scenarios and that particular soul has to go
18:00
Speaker 2: really within themselves to figure out the solution to a situation.
18:04
Speaker 2: And I just say, you know what, everybody comes to
18:06
Speaker 2: a different place. Everybody's theirerent background. Who are we to
18:09
Speaker 2: judge another We don't know what their background is. You know,
18:13
Speaker 2: you don't know another person you walk around their shoes
18:15
Speaker 2: for a while. So we have to bring that sense
18:17
Speaker 2: of love and vibration to them. And I think it's
18:20
Speaker 2: important as we share this space that we help any
18:24
Speaker 2: person we can every day to be the best they
18:27
Speaker 2: can by again bringing some sense of validation to them,
18:32
Speaker 2: assisting them, letting them know that you thank you for
18:36
Speaker 2: meeting me today. The space is enlightened because of you.
18:39
Speaker 2: You know, some imprint. And I always say make the
18:42
Speaker 2: person make sure that when you live your life and
18:46
Speaker 2: that the people that you meet in your life, that
18:47
Speaker 2: everyone you meet their lives are better having that too.
18:51
Speaker 1: Absolutely. I call them the simple gifts, the kindness. Being
18:55
Speaker 1: on a line in a supermarket, a grocery checkout line
18:58
Speaker 1: with about ten people, and this elderly woman walks over
19:02
Speaker 1: carrying her small basket, and she looks and has such
19:06
Speaker 1: distress on her face that the long line that's waiting there,
19:09
Speaker 1: and I get out of that line and make sure
19:11
Speaker 1: everybody can see me do this and say, madam, please
19:13
Speaker 1: take my space. And she thanked me, and she had
19:16
Speaker 1: tears in her eyes, and I clarified that I was
19:19
Speaker 1: giving up my space, and then no one got upset
19:21
Speaker 1: about the fact that I was allowing her to take
19:24
Speaker 1: my space and get into the line.
19:27
Speaker 2: And it's so great that you let people know that
19:29
Speaker 2: that they see you doing that, because by your example
19:32
Speaker 2: you teach others. It's really really important. I was. I'm
19:34
Speaker 2: writing a book right now, and one of the things
19:36
Speaker 2: I'm talking about is my friend Olivia, who I was
19:40
Speaker 2: in development with for a long time with the healerism
19:42
Speaker 2: sitting development circles, and we had an agreement that whoever
19:46
Speaker 2: goes first will come back and tell the other what
19:49
Speaker 2: experience was like. And about seven eight years ago, Olivia
19:52
Speaker 2: passed and she came to right away. I said, what
19:56
Speaker 2: was it like? And she said, oh, it was lovely.
19:58
Speaker 2: She said it was like I moved into a theater,
20:00
Speaker 2: and she goes, I looked, I walked right into this
20:02
Speaker 2: movie screen, and I looked back at the audience and
20:04
Speaker 2: they were over a stoned faces like staring up. And
20:07
Speaker 2: she goes, they weren't alive. They were kind of like
20:09
Speaker 2: just existing. And I walked in the screen and their
20:12
Speaker 2: beautiful flowers blooming as high as it could with these
20:15
Speaker 2: beautiful tones of perfumes, and every time they grew, there's
20:19
Speaker 2: a more beautiful perfume, and so forth. And the people
20:21
Speaker 2: that came to greet me, she said, we're not my
20:24
Speaker 2: family members right away, but these people that I really
20:26
Speaker 2: didn't know, And she goes, this one lady came to
20:29
Speaker 2: me and she looked into my eyes, and I immediately
20:31
Speaker 2: was remembering how I met her. And it was one
20:34
Speaker 2: incident where I opened the door for this woman and
20:37
Speaker 2: helped her with a package, just the little act of kindness.
20:41
Speaker 2: She came back to thank me and to welcome her home.
20:44
Speaker 2: So as you saved her, those little acts of kindness
20:47
Speaker 2: that mean the most, have the most impact.
20:50
Speaker 1: Absolutely can we be loving without having our hearts broken?
20:54
Speaker 2: Well, I think the experience is learning more about your heart.
20:58
Speaker 2: You're that emotional part of ourselves. I think you know again,
21:02
Speaker 2: if one knows who they are, and really, to me,
21:05
Speaker 2: it's a really good secret in that one should know
21:08
Speaker 2: who they are, you know, be empowered and to the
21:11
Speaker 2: control of their life. More one knows who they are,
21:14
Speaker 2: the more easier it is because you have that relationship
21:17
Speaker 2: with self and not looking outside yourself for someone to
21:20
Speaker 2: fulfill your heart and fulfill your experience because you have
21:24
Speaker 2: who you are. I think part of the human experience
21:27
Speaker 2: is to go through those emotional ups and downs. And
21:29
Speaker 2: I think that you know anything that we go through, right,
21:34
Speaker 2: I think it's all lessons that we learn from. So
21:36
Speaker 2: I think the heart being broken, if you will, I
21:38
Speaker 2: think that's just another way of us knowing more about
21:41
Speaker 2: our own hearts, our emotional selves, how to treat others.
21:45
Speaker 2: And what is it someone said, have broken heart? What
21:48
Speaker 2: is it about that experience? What is it that's broken
21:50
Speaker 2: that you feel broken? Where does that come from within yourself?
21:53
Speaker 2: What aspect of yourself feels broken or not in fullness
21:56
Speaker 2: of being? In order to have that experience so it's
21:59
Speaker 2: all learning.
22:00
Speaker 1: You know, the wisdom of my wonderful guest, James von Prague. James,
22:05
Speaker 1: please tell us about this program you have starting on
22:07
Speaker 1: March eighteenth with the Shift Network.
22:10
Speaker 2: Well, I've done work now for forty years, and one
22:13
Speaker 2: of my favorite things in this lifetime my passions is teaching.
22:18
Speaker 2: I love to teach and I love to share this insights,
22:22
Speaker 2: the wisdom that experiences I've been through in my mediumship development.
22:26
Speaker 2: And the hardest part Victor for me, when I do
22:29
Speaker 2: messages for people, it's not necessarily talking to dead people
22:33
Speaker 2: that I can do, and you teach others about that
22:36
Speaker 2: quite well. The part that I have the hard time
22:39
Speaker 2: with is I see their possibilities for themselves around their
22:43
Speaker 2: org field or their abilities, and they don't see it
22:46
Speaker 2: for themselves. That's really hard. So in this teaching, in
22:50
Speaker 2: this course and in the course they've done, I really
22:52
Speaker 2: want to emphasize once again they get it connected with
22:55
Speaker 2: their soul self and bringing through various exercises meditations where
23:00
Speaker 2: they number one connect with that relationship with their soul
23:03
Speaker 2: and from that space we begin to be aware of
23:05
Speaker 2: the spirit people and how they should let themselves be
23:09
Speaker 2: open to spirit take that journey of the spirit world.
23:12
Speaker 2: Understand the spirit world. Understand that it's really a sense
23:16
Speaker 2: of it's not aggressive, it's subtle. It's a passive activism.
23:22
Speaker 2: So when you connect with the spirit world, which is
23:24
Speaker 2: the course is all about, how do you connect in
23:27
Speaker 2: a very subtle way, very but a very real way,
23:31
Speaker 2: and that you feel your way through to connect with
23:34
Speaker 2: the spirit world. And it's really designed as a mediumship
23:38
Speaker 2: course that really takes you to the next level. So
23:41
Speaker 2: people have done mediumship basics of mediumship. It brings you
23:46
Speaker 2: a little bit further on your path to really amuse
23:48
Speaker 2: exercises and insights that you can use to further your
23:53
Speaker 2: connection with the spirit world. Getting more details like I
23:56
Speaker 2: mentioned earlier about the lady with the bracelet, how do
24:00
Speaker 2: use your clairvoyance with your clarecentience or the clair audience,
24:04
Speaker 2: how do you become aware, how do you go further
24:06
Speaker 2: with it? How do you get further insights? And then
24:09
Speaker 2: we get into a lit of philosophy too, that your
24:12
Speaker 2: soul is here to teach others or be aware, so
24:14
Speaker 2: I get into that too. As a mediumship course. I
24:17
Speaker 2: wanted to do it with Shift Network because they're such
24:19
Speaker 2: a great organization and online because they really care and
24:24
Speaker 2: they really are doing a quality job, and I don't
24:28
Speaker 2: do with everyone, so I just it's a very limited
24:31
Speaker 2: so they have done a great job. It's going to
24:32
Speaker 2: be an advanced Mediumship course, which I have the techniques
24:36
Speaker 2: that I've used over the many years. But it's so
24:38
Speaker 2: funny but there because over my years of teaching, it's
24:41
Speaker 2: so interesting because I noticed basic beginning and then to
24:45
Speaker 2: the next level, and there's such a similarity or commonality
24:49
Speaker 2: to the second level, the advanced medium Ship. So I
24:52
Speaker 2: use those many things I learned over the years. All
24:54
Speaker 2: those students have told me certain things happen, and I'm
24:58
Speaker 2: using those to help with the advanced. So that's really
25:01
Speaker 2: what it is. It's honing in, it's being mindful, it's
25:03
Speaker 2: being aware, and when we begin to work with mediumship
25:07
Speaker 2: and an advanced level, if you will, it really also
25:10
Speaker 2: forces ourselves in a higher level too. And just like
25:13
Speaker 2: we're talking about demonstrating love using love and everything you do,
25:17
Speaker 2: so I go into that further in the course as well.
25:19
Speaker 1: And that can be found at Shift Network, theshiftnetwork dot com,

25:45
Speaker 2: There's a lot in that course, a lot.
25:48
Speaker 1: And we'll be back with more of James after these

26:26
Speaker 4: Hello, I'm Sandy sedgeby a host of Home Times Magazine's
26:30
Speaker 4: flagship radio show What is going On? My passion is
26:34
Speaker 4: sifting through information, research and innovations from new thought teachers,
26:38
Speaker 4: speakers and researchers, pushing back the boundaries of what we
26:41
Speaker 4: know about life, energy, metaphysics, and the universe. I love
26:46
Speaker 4: shifting perceptions about who we are, why we're here, and
26:49
Speaker 4: how quickly impossible becomes normal when we open our minds,
26:53
Speaker 4: expand our awareness, and accept that the only limits that
26:57
Speaker 4: exist are those we place upon ourselves. So if you're
27:00
Speaker 4: the kind of forward thinking, eager investigator of what lies
27:03
Speaker 4: beyond the current reality that most perceive, why not make
27:07
Speaker 4: a date to come play with me in the Field
27:09
Speaker 4: of Possibilities at four pm Pacific time seven pm Eastern
27:13
Speaker 4: time every Thursday, and together we can discover what's really
27:18
Speaker 4: going on.
27:19
Speaker 1: Back on Destination Unlimited, my guest this week, James von Prague.
27:24
Speaker 1: We're going to be talking about the work he's going
27:26
Speaker 1: to be doing at the Shift Network, of course, for
27:29
Speaker 1: seven weeks starting on March eighteenth, and we'll give you
27:32
Speaker 1: more details as the interview ensues. James, how may we
27:35
Speaker 1: attract health, success and happiness through the power of love?
27:41
Speaker 2: Wow, that's a good question, and it's all available to us.
27:45
Speaker 2: We just have to be willing to do the work.
27:48
Speaker 2: When I say the work, it goes back to number one,
27:50
Speaker 2: knowing who we are and understanding our own soul, personality
27:55
Speaker 2: and understanding really what's important to us and what's not
27:58
Speaker 2: important to us, being mindful of what influences us and
28:02
Speaker 2: what doesn't influence us, and and and the power we
28:05
Speaker 2: give to certain things. So again it goes back the
28:09
Speaker 2: sense of loving self. Everything goes back to the love
28:12
Speaker 2: of self. When one has that sense of loving self,
28:15
Speaker 2: it you know, love is the highest frequency, of the
28:17
Speaker 2: highest vibration there is. So when you have that sense
28:20
Speaker 2: of loving yourself and really part of Victor I said
28:23
Speaker 2: earlier too, and I love this mantra. Wayne Dyer used
28:26
Speaker 2: to use it, Terry Cole Whittaker did, and I've used it.
28:29
Speaker 2: What other people think of you is none of your business.
28:32
Speaker 2: And it's really really true because our energy is very different.
28:35
Speaker 2: It's very distinct and individualized. So when we have that
28:40
Speaker 2: relationship of self and love self, what happens is we
28:44
Speaker 2: are magnetic beings. We're constant magnetic and the natural law
28:48
Speaker 2: of like attracts like, and you will attract in your
28:51
Speaker 2: in your sphere of influence that it's around you that
28:55
Speaker 2: higher vibration of love, and and really it's it's it's
28:59
Speaker 2: so funny because the human has to get out of
29:01
Speaker 2: the way. I talk about this a lot in my
29:03
Speaker 2: course too. It's always about the human part of us
29:05
Speaker 2: getting out of the way, stop critiquing, stop being so
29:08
Speaker 2: left brain, stop analyzing, and just be. And that takes
29:11
Speaker 2: a little bit of a process and a little bit
29:13
Speaker 2: of a discipline, but there's so much freedom in that
29:17
Speaker 2: when you let go and let God. There's many ways
29:19
Speaker 2: of saying it, and God to me is pure love.
29:21
Speaker 2: Let go and let God and you will attract you
29:23
Speaker 2: in your life that which is important that you need,
29:27
Speaker 2: and it may not come to you the way you
29:29
Speaker 2: expect it. Don't try to control it, but it's almost
29:32
Speaker 2: like universal ordering. Put it out there and put it
29:35
Speaker 2: out to what you would like, and you just put
29:38
Speaker 2: it out there and let the universe take care of
29:40
Speaker 2: that and then relax and let it happen. But we
29:43
Speaker 2: humans try so hard to control things. Control, that's the
29:48
Speaker 2: hard one. Control, and really we have no control. You know,
29:51
Speaker 2: you can't control another person, you can't control a situation. Well,
29:56
Speaker 2: you control how you respond to someone, and really work
29:59
Speaker 2: on your own self, your own awareness of things. And
30:02
Speaker 2: since it's really very very true, things will come to
30:06
Speaker 2: you if you're clear and and your pro cure of
30:10
Speaker 2: heart and it'll come to a way you don't expect.
30:13
Speaker 2: It's like the spirit world will take care of you.
30:15
Speaker 2: They pull strings. Listen. I'm someone forty years doing this work,
30:19
Speaker 2: and I first came to the Los Angeles in the
30:21
Speaker 2: early nineties to be a sitcom writer. I know nothing
30:24
Speaker 2: about mediumship, and I always do. It'd be well known,
30:26
Speaker 2: and I thought it'd be through sitcom writing or the
30:28
Speaker 2: writer or that, and the twists and turns and tons
30:32
Speaker 2: of temporary jobs, not knowing anybody in Los Angeles. Things
30:35
Speaker 2: fell apart, and you know, it's all those little curves,
30:38
Speaker 2: ups and downs all rounds that bring us to where
30:40
Speaker 2: we're meant to be. And I just think having a
30:43
Speaker 2: sense of you know, someone's you know, someone else is
30:46
Speaker 2: at the wheel. We're just following up and that's how
30:49
Speaker 2: we do it. It's it's very interesting, and I think
30:52
Speaker 2: if one can stop and go back and observe, I
30:56
Speaker 2: think observation is really important. How this worked, how this
30:59
Speaker 2: came about. Person meant that to happen, so all this connection,
31:02
Speaker 2: but it never happens the way we want think it's
31:05
Speaker 2: going to. It's not linear, right, So it's all these
31:08
Speaker 2: different ways that it comes to us. We have to
31:10
Speaker 2: have that faith that once we put it out there
31:12
Speaker 2: and we keep up with that sense of let's say
31:15
Speaker 2: I want a new job or I got to keep
31:17
Speaker 2: that I want that job and you can describe what
31:19
Speaker 2: it is. Or I want love in my life. Now
31:22
Speaker 2: I would say, keep loving your life. Bring love to you.
31:24
Speaker 2: What does it mean to you? You have to it's
31:26
Speaker 2: all in a way. You've got to write up the
31:28
Speaker 2: description of it and send it to the universe. But
31:30
Speaker 2: everything is available to us if we're willing to open
31:33
Speaker 2: up and be there for in the right way.
31:35
Speaker 1: And you call this moving from ego to soul. What
31:40
Speaker 1: do we do with those demanding egos exactly?
31:43
Speaker 2: So ego yes or fear? I often talk about it.
31:46
Speaker 2: We've talked this before, Victor that I always think life
31:48
Speaker 2: is a series of choices, and choices are either in
31:50
Speaker 2: throughout life when we're born today we leave the body.
31:54
Speaker 2: It's a series of choices. So you choose, you know
31:56
Speaker 2: what school you went to, someone he really ship with college,
32:01
Speaker 2: whatever jobs you are, and it's either based on love,
32:04
Speaker 2: You'll love to do it and it feels great, it's
32:05
Speaker 2: a fulfillment or fear which is inadequacy. Fear fe a
32:11
Speaker 2: r false ego appearing real, and we've got to be
32:15
Speaker 2: able to separate the two. And if you'll just tune
32:18
Speaker 2: into that limited consciousness, which is fear, things won't come
32:22
Speaker 2: to the way you'd like them to and they'll be
32:24
Speaker 2: I guess we would say half baked. So that's why
32:27
Speaker 2: I look at it absolutely.
32:29
Speaker 1: You've shared that death is an illusion. Please explain.
32:34
Speaker 2: Yeah, so death is an illusion. And my brother recently
32:37
Speaker 2: just passed over three weeks ago, and he came and
32:40
Speaker 2: it was just he was young. And I think that
32:43
Speaker 2: we have first understand that the soul is temporarily in
32:47
Speaker 2: this physical vessel or we called the meat suit, if
32:50
Speaker 2: you will. It is just a covering for our soul.
32:53
Speaker 2: You know, it's not real. It's a covering. We need
32:55
Speaker 2: this vessel vehicle to get around this three dimensional phys world.
33:00
Speaker 2: But as a soul, we come in out of the
33:02
Speaker 2: body all the time and it's not a big deal.
33:05
Speaker 2: It's just we do it all the time. Every night
33:08
Speaker 2: we go to sleep, the soul leaves the body through
33:10
Speaker 2: the crown shop grow at the top of the head
33:12
Speaker 2: and it just very natural goes out and we visit
33:14
Speaker 2: the astral world. We see our loved ones and guides,
33:17
Speaker 2: and we work on things that we're going to experience
33:19
Speaker 2: in the physical in the future. So we really spend
33:23
Speaker 2: most of our time in the spirit levels. So when
33:26
Speaker 2: we at the end the physical death, when the time
33:29
Speaker 2: is for us, everything is moving, you know. The one
33:32
Speaker 2: constant is change, and we're changing every day. We're moving
33:35
Speaker 2: every day. But when it's our time to be finished
33:38
Speaker 2: a school here, when time to graduate, and by the way,
33:41
Speaker 2: time to graduate. Sometimes there are souls that choose to
33:44
Speaker 2: be ill and have others take care of them, and
33:48
Speaker 2: they're they're limited, like my brother was. And many times
33:50
Speaker 2: we could say that that soul is it's a final
33:53
Speaker 2: lesson to teach others about compassion or to really feel
33:57
Speaker 2: receive from others maybe their life th we receive, this
34:00
Speaker 2: is the way they're receiving. So it's interesting because my
34:04
Speaker 2: brother said to me, he goes It was funny because
34:06
Speaker 2: as his soul, you know, we come in and out
34:08
Speaker 2: of that body all the time. When he was ill
34:10
Speaker 2: and a terminal, he would come to me. He lives
34:13
Speaker 2: in New York and I'm in California, and we came
34:15
Speaker 2: right to me. He says, you need to cut the cords.
34:17
Speaker 2: I need to go. I need to go. I say, well,
34:19
Speaker 2: we got to let things be natural as it's going
34:21
Speaker 2: to be. But I'm sending up good thoughts. And finally,
34:24
Speaker 2: probably about a month later, he was able to leave. Well,
34:27
Speaker 2: this is very funny. His ex wife came from I
34:29
Speaker 2: think it was a Seattle and can you see him?
34:32
Speaker 2: And he didn't really care for her, but she felt
34:34
Speaker 2: obligated to sit there with him. Now, I didn't know
34:36
Speaker 2: this the night that he passed, but he came to
34:39
Speaker 2: me the next day, right before I heard boy passed,
34:42
Speaker 2: and he said, James, and he has such a New
34:44
Speaker 2: York personality, because what are you doing my ex wife?
34:47
Speaker 2: I see my ex wife there? What do you think
34:49
Speaker 2: pushed me over the edge? So it was very funny,
34:52
Speaker 2: and I said, well, he goes, Yeah, I just popped
34:54
Speaker 2: out of the body. And I love that expression. I
34:56
Speaker 2: just popping out because it's just the shift of conscious
35:00
Speaker 2: you know, you let go of the heaviness of this
35:03
Speaker 2: physical vibration, this unnatural if you will place this body,
35:07
Speaker 2: this physical world, and you go back home and it's
35:11
Speaker 2: all available to us. And again we do it every day.
35:13
Speaker 2: We go to the side. I was getting a massage
35:17
Speaker 2: and massage once a week, and the other night I
35:19
Speaker 2: had one and it was quite incredible, and I think
35:21
Speaker 2: maybe because of my brother's entrance to that level. But
35:25
Speaker 2: around me, I was just surrendering and I didn't expect anything,
35:28
Speaker 2: but I was immediately brought into the circle of light
35:31
Speaker 2: above me and all old friends and my family were there,
35:34
Speaker 2: and I didn't expect it. But it's like, oh, this
35:37
Speaker 2: is all very natural. I feel very natural about it.
35:39
Speaker 2: And that's how I described when we pass out of
35:41
Speaker 2: the physical vibration, that's a natural. We go back home.
35:45
Speaker 2: That's our home, this is only our school.
35:48
Speaker 1: Beautiful. What would you offer to those who are grieving
35:51
Speaker 1: right now?
35:53
Speaker 2: Number one, that there is no death. So I realized
35:56
Speaker 2: there was no death whatsoever, and that their loved ones
35:59
Speaker 2: are indeed around them. And there are many different you know,
36:03
Speaker 2: there are manyferent types of grief. I wrote a book
36:05
Speaker 2: years ago, book called Healing Grief, and it's all the
36:07
Speaker 2: different situations of grieving. Whether it's moving to a new house,
36:11
Speaker 2: whether it's empty nest syndrome, whether it's getting a new job,
36:14
Speaker 2: and whether it's losing a loved one, whether it's a
36:17
Speaker 2: child or a partner, or a family member. Grief is real.
36:21
Speaker 2: It's part of the human experience, and we really have
36:24
Speaker 2: to go through that. If you will again a lesson,
36:27
Speaker 2: if you will, And I just say that number one,
36:30
Speaker 2: they're always arounds it. It's a grief that's what passes over.
36:33
Speaker 2: That there is no death there around you. And I
36:36
Speaker 2: often say to people to help them with their grief,
36:39
Speaker 2: I say, number one, keep a journal and write down
36:42
Speaker 2: ways that they influenced your life. How have they made
36:45
Speaker 2: your life better? And because of their influence in your life,
36:49
Speaker 2: how would you now move forward and bring that positive
36:53
Speaker 2: energy or those aspects to another person? Right? And another
36:57
Speaker 2: page week What did they teach you? Which is a
36:59
Speaker 2: really good one. What do they teach you? And the
37:01
Speaker 2: importance of it. And they'll get caught up in the
37:04
Speaker 2: sense that you know, not there anymore, because they're more
37:07
Speaker 2: there than they were when they are physically around there.
37:09
Speaker 2: They're more there in your mind. The mind is the
37:12
Speaker 2: soul's mind, so you can communicate with them in your mind.
37:16
Speaker 2: And I often say, do it a certain time of day,
37:18
Speaker 2: So keep a little journal a pad and it will
37:22
Speaker 2: say seven o'clock at night, sit down and open your
37:25
Speaker 2: mind up in meditative, in a meditative state, in all state,
37:28
Speaker 2: and just be still and ask them come close to
37:31
Speaker 2: you and let them and feel them in your heart,
37:34
Speaker 2: on your head, in your heart, and that will be
37:37
Speaker 2: the way they'll come in. And it's really those things work.
37:41
Speaker 2: And another technique which works extremely well also is to
37:44
Speaker 2: write a letter to them. Write them a letter and
37:48
Speaker 2: everything you want to say to them, and I say it.
37:51
Speaker 2: Two weeks later, write down to your calendar. I'm right
37:54
Speaker 2: back writing another letter. Back, what did you write? This letter?
37:57
Speaker 2: You fold it up to your way, and then two
37:59
Speaker 2: weeks later you look in your calendar and there's another
38:01
Speaker 2: time to write a letter. So same thing, seven o'clock
38:05
Speaker 2: at night. Whatever, gets an altered state, all the piece
38:09
Speaker 2: of paper, a pen, and now it's going to be
38:11
Speaker 2: a letter from them to you. So they're responding to
38:14
Speaker 2: a original letter. And I've done this for years with
38:17
Speaker 2: clients and it really works. It's really wonderful. It brings
38:20
Speaker 2: them back their life and it helps them with their healing.
38:23
Speaker 1: Beautiful, beautiful. In many of your books and programs, you
38:28
Speaker 1: share the importance of a meditation practice. Why is this
38:32
Speaker 1: so important?
38:33
Speaker 2: Well, so, as I was just saying, a meditation is
38:36
Speaker 2: really is number one, giving you a sense of a
38:39
Speaker 2: new direction, a different perspective, and I think it really
38:42
Speaker 2: assists us and having that sense of self, it brings
38:45
Speaker 2: us to an altered state of consciousness, and in that
38:48
Speaker 2: altered state of consciousness, you're kind of away from the physical.
38:51
Speaker 2: You get more into the mind or at different levels
38:53
Speaker 2: of awareness if you will. And I think if we
38:56
Speaker 2: hear in a regular basis of training our mind to
38:59
Speaker 2: be in a space which is not a human but
39:02
Speaker 2: aware of everything, it just opens us up. It opens
39:05
Speaker 2: us up to all the experience we have, the meaning
39:08
Speaker 2: behind these experiences. It helps us to have, if you want,
39:11
Speaker 2: an awareness of our soul, of our soul self and
39:14
Speaker 2: the choices that we make. And it really is, gosh,
39:18
Speaker 2: it's just so much there when we open ourselves up
39:20
Speaker 2: to those altered states of consciousness, because we begin to
39:24
Speaker 2: it also helps you to begin to feel energy and
39:28
Speaker 2: sense energy. And you know, the more one is dedicated
39:33
Speaker 2: and disciplined to it, you really will begin to on
39:36
Speaker 2: those levels be able to sense energy, and not those
39:40
Speaker 2: are passed over, but those living the living world. And
39:43
Speaker 2: when you go out, you'll give the sense the energy
39:44
Speaker 2: of a person. We do it anyway we go into
39:47
Speaker 2: like it meets someone, we feel a certain way the
39:49
Speaker 2: meditation or altered state, but enhance the energy. It enhances
39:53
Speaker 2: that connection. And one thing too, Victor, which is really important.
39:56
Speaker 2: Through I've noticed the meditative practice that brings in that
40:00
Speaker 2: sense of oneness, that we're all connected and that whatever
40:03
Speaker 2: that means. You have a sense of oneness of life
40:07
Speaker 2: force in all things, and you become appreciative if you will,
40:12
Speaker 2: and all yourself, all life forms. And I can just
40:16
Speaker 2: tell you from my experiences that's what it's about for
40:18
Speaker 2: me and for others that I've taught. And it's really
40:21
Speaker 2: interesting because my teaching is such a passionate person about it.
40:25
Speaker 2: I love to see others progress. I love to see
40:28
Speaker 2: them have that sense again of themselves. Many of my
40:30
Speaker 2: students say, wow, I can't believe I'm doing this is
40:33
Speaker 2: so great. I forgot who I was, and I've taken
40:36
Speaker 2: your courses and I remember now who I am. Oh wow,
40:40
Speaker 2: I've taken a lot of courses, but you really nailed
40:42
Speaker 2: it for me. And that's true. You know, every teacher
40:45
Speaker 2: is different, I say to students, you know, everybody is different,
40:49
Speaker 2: a speaker, an author, someone you see you know, if
40:54
Speaker 2: what happens, if they give you information that resonates to
40:57
Speaker 2: your soul, take it, use it. They're feeding your soul.
41:00
Speaker 2: And if it doesn't, it's not ready for you, it's
41:02
Speaker 2: not right for you. So I've had a lot of people,
41:05
Speaker 2: not everyone, but a lot of people have said, Wow,
41:07
Speaker 2: that really speaks to my soul what you've said in
41:09
Speaker 2: your courses and your meditation practices.
41:12
Speaker 4: Though.
41:12
Speaker 2: That's that's why I think it's important.
41:16
Speaker 1: We are so excited about this seven week program you
41:19
Speaker 1: have coming up on the Shift network next level medium Ship.
41:23
Speaker 1: Is every person capable of developing their mediumship skills?
41:27
Speaker 2: That's a great question, great question. So I'm going to
41:30
Speaker 2: answer that by saying, everybody is a soul, right, So
41:34
Speaker 2: we have a physical world, we're a soul incarnate. We
41:37
Speaker 2: have soul with a physical vessel around us, but we're
41:40
Speaker 2: still a soul, and those souls that leave the physical
41:43
Speaker 2: they're still a soul. So the only difference is we're
41:46
Speaker 2: in the physical vibration, the physical skin, and they're outside
41:49
Speaker 2: of that. So how do we do that? Well, we
41:52
Speaker 2: have to open up our minds and be more aware
41:55
Speaker 2: of that subtle energies around us. So every single person
41:58
Speaker 2: is a medium for one point to an other, and
42:00
Speaker 2: it can be developed and the skill set can increase. Now,
42:04
Speaker 2: I will say often the analogy I like to use
42:08
Speaker 2: is that it's like a concert pianist. Everybody has the
42:10
Speaker 2: ability to play the piano, but not everybody's a concert pianist.
42:14
Speaker 2: So you can maximize, if you will, that energy, that
42:18
Speaker 2: sense of your soul self, that aspect of yourself. But
42:22
Speaker 2: you know, some people have more of it in they're
42:24
Speaker 2: born that way, you know, because they're born like I
42:26
Speaker 2: wasn't a kid. I was born that way. But there's
42:28
Speaker 2: certainly because we're souls in the physical we can communicate
42:32
Speaker 2: with other souls. That is definitely possible.
42:35
Speaker 1: My guest is the amazing James von Prague. Will be
42:38
Speaker 1: back with more of James after these words on the
42:41
Speaker 1: Old Times Radio Network.
42:44
Speaker 5: Humanity Healing International is a small nonprofit with a big dream.
42:49
Speaker 5: Since two thousand and seven, HHI has been working tirelessly
42:53
Speaker 5: to bring help to communities with little or no oh.
42:56
Speaker 5: Our projects are not broad mandates, nor are they overnight solutions,
43:01
Speaker 5: but they bring the reassurance then no one is alone
43:04
Speaker 5: and that someone cares to learn more. Please visit Humanity
43:09
Speaker 5: Healing dot org. Humanity Healing is where your heart is.
43:13
Speaker 2: Hi, this is Belle mar.
43:14
Speaker 6: I can find humor in almost anything, but one thing
43:17
Speaker 6: I never laugh about is cruelty to animals. If you
43:20
Speaker 6: don't get the joke either, right, People for the Ethical
43:23
Speaker 6: Treatment of Animals five on one Front Street in Norfolk, Virginia,
43:26
Speaker 6: two three five one oh Back.
43:28
Speaker 1: On Destination Unlimited. My wonderful guest this week, James von Prague.
43:33
Speaker 1: We're talking about his program coming up on March eighteenth
43:36
Speaker 1: on the Shift Network, where he'd be teaching regular folks
43:39
Speaker 1: like you how to connect with the spirit world and
43:42
Speaker 1: deliver healing messages to others. We'll be talking a little
43:44
Speaker 1: bit more about the offerings during the show. You say
43:48
Speaker 1: that mediums receive and psychics perceive. Please explain.
43:53
Speaker 2: Yeah, So, so everybody is psychic from another and what
43:56
Speaker 2: is psychic, Well, that is a part of your soul.
43:59
Speaker 2: So it's a language. Intuition means into the soul. So
44:02
Speaker 2: the language of soul's intuition, it's that sense of knowingness.
44:05
Speaker 2: So we perceived, we perceive, we look in, we feel
44:10
Speaker 2: sense energy of another right and if they're right there
44:13
Speaker 2: at that time and let's say we're working on someone
44:16
Speaker 2: or with a person, we really sense or perceive what
44:19
Speaker 2: the energy feels like, uh, for around that person or
44:23
Speaker 2: and we can say that past person, future or if
44:26
Speaker 2: you will, if you have an awareness about a certain situation,
44:30
Speaker 2: you perceive it, you become aware of it, you observe it.
44:33
Speaker 2: In other words, it's really an observation. But how this
44:36
Speaker 2: is going to work out, how that feels to you,
44:37
Speaker 2: How that you sense that, sometimes clairvoyantly, sometimes clear oudiently.
44:41
Speaker 2: So everybody is psychic, every medium is psychic. That every
44:45
Speaker 2: medium not every medium is a psychic. That every psychic
44:47
Speaker 2: is a medium. So everybody senses that's that's perceiving things
44:52
Speaker 2: and the medium which is in the of course we're
44:55
Speaker 2: talking about a lot of this is learning how to
44:58
Speaker 2: receive and you bring yourself to a space of surrendering.
45:02
Speaker 2: That's really important in mediumship. One has to learn to
45:05
Speaker 2: just surrender and receive impressions from the spirit people where
45:10
Speaker 2: they will transmit thoughts and feelings and memories and emotion
45:14
Speaker 2: from their mind to your mind. Because the mind is
45:17
Speaker 2: the soul is a mind. So when we're in a
45:20
Speaker 2: state of receptivity and you just sit to receive and
45:25
Speaker 2: not push it. Right, there's an opening and you're able
45:28
Speaker 2: to pick up, if you will, transmissions from the spirit
45:31
Speaker 2: world as you receive them. It's so funny because if
45:35
Speaker 2: one pushes it and tries to get it, it will
45:37
Speaker 2: never happen. And the analogy I always use, which I love, is,
45:41
Speaker 2: let's say there's a feather floating down from the sky.
45:44
Speaker 2: If you try to receive that feather, you go after
45:46
Speaker 2: it and push it to you know, trying to grab it.
45:49
Speaker 2: Trying to grab it, it won't happen. But if you
45:51
Speaker 2: just put your hand out, it's more likely to come
45:53
Speaker 2: on your hand than it would be if you try
45:55
Speaker 2: to try it. So far it's being receptive. So that's
45:58
Speaker 2: the difference between the two.
46:00
Speaker 1: What do you share with those studying with you about
46:02
Speaker 1: delivering perhaps difficult messages with compassion.
46:06
Speaker 2: Oh, it's a good one. So I love that questions.
46:09
Speaker 2: It's very important in mediumship, and I talk a lot
46:12
Speaker 2: about ethics and responsibility and as a medium, one has
46:16
Speaker 2: life of another in their hands. I hope it describes
46:19
Speaker 2: a sheet of thin glass and you can destroy someone's
46:22
Speaker 2: life or you can empower someone's life, and you as
46:25
Speaker 2: the medium, that's your responsibility, so it might be a
46:29
Speaker 2: very hard subject. For instance, reading I once did in
46:33
Speaker 2: New York was a lady whose son came through and
46:37
Speaker 2: he died of a drunk driver hit him and killed him.
46:40
Speaker 2: And the driver lived and he died, and the mother
46:43
Speaker 2: and the father and the audience and they the son said,
46:46
Speaker 2: you know, Mom, you need to forgive him. And she
46:48
Speaker 2: was furious, how could you say that. I'm just saying
46:52
Speaker 2: what he said. And you really have to get to
46:55
Speaker 2: the heart of the matter. And I teach that a
46:57
Speaker 2: lot gives the heart of the matter. Your job as
47:00
Speaker 2: a medium is to heal that person, bring them to
47:05
Speaker 2: a fullness of being in their heart. So there may
47:08
Speaker 2: be reasons why that person can't forgive. The son said,
47:12
Speaker 2: right away, Mom and dad, I've forgiven him. You need
47:15
Speaker 2: to forgive him. And part of the reason you're saying
47:18
Speaker 2: that because energetically it's really important, he said. If you
47:21
Speaker 2: don't forgive him, you're putting up a block. You're putting
47:24
Speaker 2: up a wall and it'll block life. And it's like,
47:27
Speaker 2: what does that mean? He said, Well, he said, certain
47:30
Speaker 2: life experiences can I happen to you because you're blocked
47:32
Speaker 2: off because you won't forgive. This's blocking off a part
47:35
Speaker 2: of yourself and every experience in your life. You're limiting it,
47:39
Speaker 2: you're limiting God, you're limiting the energy. The right thing
47:42
Speaker 2: to do is to forgive. And also because we don't
47:44
Speaker 2: know what the higher lessons are here to learn between
47:48
Speaker 2: those two souls, between a soul group, so one has
47:52
Speaker 2: to be from what I do Victor is I have
47:54
Speaker 2: a point of view of love, that everything is whole
47:57
Speaker 2: and healthy and a whole and oneness of life. Love.
48:01
Speaker 2: And again, as a medium, we have to find that
48:04
Speaker 2: the heart in every person, and we got to do
48:07
Speaker 2: it sometimes in a very sensitive, compassionate way because we
48:11
Speaker 2: don't know their background. We don't know they're abused or
48:14
Speaker 2: hurt or something. We just don't know. And so we
48:18
Speaker 2: have to be that instrument, that example of compassion and
48:23
Speaker 2: understanding and love to that person, the recipient that's getting
48:27
Speaker 2: the message. So I often say as a medium, we're
48:30
Speaker 2: ambassadors to the other side, and for me, the other
48:34
Speaker 2: side is on conditional love and joy. Now there are
48:36
Speaker 2: other mediums that are out there who don't know that
48:39
Speaker 2: they can be great technicians but not be spiritual, and
48:43
Speaker 2: that happened quite a bit. So for me when I
48:46
Speaker 2: took on this position, this job, but over my career,
48:49
Speaker 2: I knew I had to be responsible. I knew I
48:52
Speaker 2: had to have integrity because I knew I had people's
48:55
Speaker 2: lives in their hands, and I'm to change people for
48:57
Speaker 2: the better and for me. I don't and say to everybody,
49:00
Speaker 2: all my students, I say, listen, if you look at
49:03
Speaker 2: your life one of the most successful aspects of your life,
49:06
Speaker 2: if you will, when you leave this world and you
49:09
Speaker 2: go to other side and you have it's called a
49:11
Speaker 2: life review, and you see everything you've done. If you
49:14
Speaker 2: go a where every energy you've sent out of your thought,
49:16
Speaker 2: you've sent out of your word, if you can make
49:19
Speaker 2: the world a better place than when you found it,
49:23
Speaker 2: life is successful. And that's why I tell everybody that's my.
49:26
Speaker 1: Goal as an ambassador of love. Do you need a passport?
49:34
Speaker 2: I just think I think you know. The funny thing
49:35
Speaker 2: with that is that we're all so connected, and this
49:38
Speaker 2: human vibration, there's such that took meest illusions. We have.
49:42
Speaker 2: Number one, there's death, there is no such thing as death.
49:45
Speaker 2: And number two, this sense of separativeness when really we're
49:48
Speaker 2: not separate. We're all quite together. We're all one. These
49:52
Speaker 2: are What does one meanings that one love? Love is one?
49:55
Speaker 2: To me, love is one, one is loved? What does
49:57
Speaker 2: that mean? Change?
49:58
Speaker 5: Love?
49:59
Speaker 2: O n e omnipresent nurturing energy.
50:04
Speaker 1: I've met people for the first time and immediately since
50:08
Speaker 1: a familial connection. Do we have soul families?
50:11
Speaker 2: We have sol families, we have sol groups. We've lived many,
50:14
Speaker 2: many lifetimes and other souls who may pop into a
50:17
Speaker 2: life at a different time, maybe your midlife, in childhood. Yes,
50:21
Speaker 2: we have very much so. And I don't believe those
50:24
Speaker 2: things just spontaneously happen. I think it's a divine plan
50:27
Speaker 2: that come on tropath at a particular time and they
50:30
Speaker 2: influence us, so we influence them. And I think that
50:33
Speaker 2: exactly what happens. Yeah, for sure, one hundred percent.
50:37
Speaker 1: For seven weeks, starting on March eighteenth, with the Shift Network,
50:41
Speaker 1: James will be teaching regular folks how to connect with
50:44
Speaker 1: the spirit world and deliver healing messages to others. It's
50:47
Speaker 1: going to be Tuesdays at five pm Pacific a pm Eastern,
50:51
Speaker 1: and James, you're going to be giving your pro level
50:54
Speaker 1: mediumship toolbox that you'll share during the course. Tell us
50:57
Speaker 1: about that gift.
50:58
Speaker 2: Well, it's just you know, over the years and many
51:01
Speaker 2: years of teaching, I've become aware of a certain aspects, insights,
51:06
Speaker 2: exercises that people relate to and that people it's easy
51:10
Speaker 2: for people to understand and attain and it's like the
51:14
Speaker 2: aha moments. So in this I go a toolbox with
51:17
Speaker 2: all these different exercises and mind journeys, if you will,
51:20
Speaker 2: are ways of people to getting into the sense of
51:23
Speaker 2: mediumship and the sense it's hard to say because some
51:27
Speaker 2: of the things well mediums by just talking to dead people.
51:29
Speaker 2: Now there's more of a sense of your own soul
51:31
Speaker 2: self and your soul changing and being open, and that's
51:34
Speaker 2: part of this toolbox. As far as course is having
51:38
Speaker 2: the relationship with your soul self. That's really important. So
51:40
Speaker 2: a different exercises, different ways I have people tune into
51:44
Speaker 2: their own souls and then turn tune into their loved ones.
51:48
Speaker 2: So funny with a lot of the students, we'd say,
51:50
Speaker 2: you know, I got so much out of this course
51:52
Speaker 2: in a different way than I expected. I never expected this,
51:55
Speaker 2: I expect just this. So that's really what happens. So
51:58
Speaker 2: in that tool box, different extras sizes, different mind journeys,
52:02
Speaker 2: different ways in and really a sense of attitude atmosphere.
52:08
Speaker 2: It's all in there. So you know, as I said earlier,
52:11
Speaker 2: I'm so passionate what I do. I don't want to
52:13
Speaker 2: waste time. I think time is really precious, It's a
52:16
Speaker 2: gift we have. So I made sure I put included
52:18
Speaker 2: in this those moments as exercises, those insights that are
52:23
Speaker 2: really been successful in many years to get people out
52:27
Speaker 2: of their way and get into the heart of the matter.
52:30
Speaker 1: Do you share techniques for both personal and group readings?
52:34
Speaker 2: I do, I certainly do. Personal is you know, one
52:37
Speaker 2: on one readings if you will, and then groups also,
52:39
Speaker 2: like how would you handle many people in one space?
52:42
Speaker 2: And there are many different energies, so how would you
52:44
Speaker 2: work for a larger group of technical demonstration? Then you
52:48
Speaker 2: went from one on one that's really important. So yes,
52:51
Speaker 2: I just I work. I cover that as well, and
52:55
Speaker 2: it's very interesting because the energy is a little bit
52:57
Speaker 2: different than dnamica is a little different. Again, remember that
53:01
Speaker 2: we are the heart, we are the heart of the matter.
53:03
Speaker 2: And again I'm repeated that you know, when you come
53:07
Speaker 2: to someone's life, you have to make a difference. And
53:10
Speaker 2: so if you start having that relationship that you're a
53:12
Speaker 2: soul here as an ambassador of the spirit world, and
53:15
Speaker 2: I'm just tuning the energies around me. There's a different
53:18
Speaker 2: dynamic from a group that is a one on one. Yeah,
53:20
Speaker 2: and I cover that.
53:21
Speaker 1: I understand that those enrolled in the next level Mediumship
53:24
Speaker 1: also get access to many extras, including the core teachings
53:28
Speaker 1: from the seven module program. Cultivate your Mediumship skills. That's
53:32
Speaker 1: your foundation program, right.
53:34
Speaker 2: That's correct, That is exactly right. I have a school
53:36
Speaker 2: online for that four or five maybe six years now,
53:40
Speaker 2: the JVD School Mystical Arts. And what I've done is
53:42
Speaker 2: I've taken the most successful actions that those the course
53:46
Speaker 2: they have there brought them into this. So that's exactly
53:49
Speaker 2: tried and true.
53:49
Speaker 1: If you will and anything else you'd like to share
53:52
Speaker 1: about the program.
53:54
Speaker 2: It's going to change your life. It'll change people's lives
53:57
Speaker 2: if they're willing to and if they're willing to take
54:01
Speaker 2: the time and develop properly and really begin to understand
54:07
Speaker 2: their soul self, it will change their lives and change
54:10
Speaker 2: their perspective. It'll change the way they're living, it'll change
54:14
Speaker 2: the changes in their lives. So all of that is
54:17
Speaker 2: really really important and that's what they will experience when
54:20
Speaker 2: they step into that.
54:22
Speaker 1: Space, and they're going to have fun too, right, Oh.
54:24
Speaker 2: My god, me, you know me, I'm all about the fun.
54:28
Speaker 2: You've got to have fun, You've got to have joy
54:30
Speaker 2: is part of the journey, jay o you or any why.
54:33
Speaker 2: Joy is part of the journey, and I make it.
54:34
Speaker 2: One of the things about mediumship which I teach a lot,
54:37
Speaker 2: is don't take it so seriously. Stop. You know, you
54:39
Speaker 2: have to have fun when you realize that there's no death,
54:43
Speaker 2: that makes you fat and fun and enjoy, fun, happy.
54:46
Speaker 2: So let's bring that into this mediumship. And also when
54:49
Speaker 2: the spirit people come close to you, they certainly don't
54:52
Speaker 2: want to go to a depressed down person. They want
54:54
Speaker 2: to have fun. They come through because of that higher
54:56
Speaker 2: vibration of love. So I often say, let's have a part.
55:00
Speaker 2: Pretend you're having a party with them as you invite
55:02
Speaker 2: them in, because that's the vibration and frequency they want
55:05
Speaker 2: to come to. They want to be in that space.
55:07
Speaker 2: So part of the safe that's sacred space also is
55:10
Speaker 2: opening up that to a higher vibration of fun, love
55:13
Speaker 2: and joy. That's what's about.
55:15
Speaker 1: So you can learn and party with James von Photograph
