was not 122 00:06:14,490 --> 00:06:11,530 practicing psychology as such any longer 123 00:06:17,790 --> 00:06:14,500 what I was learning from Jared was 124 00:06:20,159 --> 00:06:17,800 layered in a

in the beginning I worked as a 128 00:06:31,620 --> 00:06:28,470 hypnotherapist mainly focused on 129 00:06:33,060 --> 00:06:31,630 dissociative kind of disorders but I 130 00:06:35,130 -->

questions and for me those questions 145 00:07:09,740 --> 00:07:08,100 were answered but I'd like you to kind 146 00:07:12,500 --> 00:07:09,750 of answer him again what are your 147 00:07:15,650 --> 00:07:12,510 professional credentials well I did my 148 00:07:19,700 --> 00:07:15,660 undergraduate work at the University of 149 00:07:22,310 --> 00:07:19,710 Notre Dame and that was and basically 150 00:07:26,270 --> 00:07:22,320 was called the great books program a 151 00:07:28,850 --> 00:07:26,280 very broad field humanities but then I 152 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:28,860 went on afterwards to get my master's 153 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:31,170 degree with an emotionally disturbed 154 00:07:38,510 --> 00:07:35,970 children and after a gain my master's in 155 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:38,520 teaching for a year I went on for my 156 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:42,210 doctoral studies at Texas A&M in 157 00:07:49,370 --> 00:07:46,410 counseling psychology so I think my 158 00:07:53,290 --> 00:07:49,380 dissertation and began practice as an 159 00:07:56,350 --> 00:07:53,300 intern here in Grand Rapids in 1975 and 160 00:07:59,360 --> 00:07:56,360 then worked at the psychiatric hospital 161 00:08:02,900 --> 00:07:59,370 for several years before and in private 162 00:08:06,950 --> 00:08:02,910 practice and some private practice that 163 00:08:09,020 --> 00:08:06,960 I really practiced hypnosis and really 164 00:08:11,750 --> 00:08:09,030 attempting to work with people who had 165 00:08:15,380 --> 00:08:11,760 been traumatized whether a childhood or 166 00:08:17,210 --> 00:08:15,390 adolescence or even later and then that 167 00:08:20,870 --> 00:08:17,220 led you as you just mentioned a little 168 00:08:23,540 --> 00:08:20,880 bit ago into this work with dissociative 169 00:08:28,100 --> 00:08:23,550 disorders which is in and of itself 170 00:08:30,730 --> 00:08:28,110 highly controversial I kind of gleaned 171 00:08:32,930 --> 00:08:30,740 from your book that it wasn't quite as 172 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:32,940 controversial when you first started 173 00:08:37,370 --> 00:08:35,130 it's not like you were jumping into some 174 00:08:40,430 --> 00:08:37,380 trend you had just kind of discovered it 175 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:40,440 on your own so dissociative disorder so 176 00:08:45,230 --> 00:08:43,170 people know split personality or 177 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:45,240 multiple personality as its portrayed in 178 00:08:49,930 --> 00:08:47,490 the movies is how it's been popularized 179 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:49,940 but from a kind of strain on 180 00:08:53,630 --> 00:08:51,450 psychological 181 00:08:56,650 --> 00:08:53,640 Nicolle perspective it's now recognised 182 00:08:59,540 --> 00:08:56,660 that people do have different kinds of 183 00:09:01,940 --> 00:08:59,550 disassociative disorders that lead to 184 00:09:04,070 --> 00:09:01,950 stress in their life so do you want to 185 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:04,080 kind of help people understand that 186 00:09:10,910 --> 00:09:08,250 whole thing when I began I learned about 187 00:09:13,550 --> 00:09:10,920 an approach to therapy called ego-state 188 00:09:16,450 --> 00:09:13,560 therapy and this is an approach that 189 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:16,460 recognizes that we all have 190 00:09:22,610 --> 00:09:19,970 subpersonalities the multiple 191 00:09:26,860 --> 00:09:22,620 personality which was the term back then 192 00:09:29,990 --> 00:09:26,870 in a sense is an extreme case of 193 00:09:33,410 --> 00:09:30,000 subpersonalities so the issue was 194 00:09:37,010 --> 00:09:33,420 treating people through hypnosis making 195 00:09:40,510 --> 00:09:37,020 contact with these sub personalities and 196 00:09:44,210 --> 00:09:40,520 helping these sub personalities to 197 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:44,220 relieve the pain or hurt or distress or 198 00:09:49,580 --> 00:09:47,370 fear that they carry and it's these 199 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:49,590 personalities that we were bringing back 200 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:54,210 to integrate with the self so multiple 201 00:09:59,570 --> 00:09:56,370 personality is an extreme but it's 202 00:10:03,170 --> 00:09:59,580 basically saying we all have sub 203 00:10:04,730 --> 00:10:03,180 personalities created I kind of gleaned 204 00:10:07,250 --> 00:10:04,740 from the book that there was this kind 205 00:10:08,570 --> 00:10:07,260 of continuum we all love you go Sates we 206 00:10:10,310 --> 00:10:08,580 all love the gatekeeper we all have the 207 00:10:14,180 --> 00:10:10,320 protector we all have that it just 208 00:10:16,490 --> 00:10:14,190 hasn't gone to the extent that it has or 209 00:10:18,260 --> 00:10:16,500 is that not really a good way to look at 210 00:10:20,690 --> 00:10:18,270 it is it really something come 211 00:10:23,810 --> 00:10:20,700 completely different when it becomes a 212 00:10:27,410 --> 00:10:23,820 problem for people no we are talking 213 00:10:30,350 --> 00:10:27,420 about a continuum and most of the 214 00:10:32,300 --> 00:10:30,360 peoples that I work with as clients they 215 00:10:34,310 --> 00:10:32,310 were not multiple personality or 216 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:34,320 dissociative identities of disorder as 217 00:10:42,050 --> 00:10:38,250 we thought today they were what we talk 218 00:10:44,620 --> 00:10:42,060 about normal everyday but as in 219 00:10:47,930 --> 00:10:44,630 childhood and in adolescents especially 220 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:47,940 the ego self the identity is not well 221 00:10:53,690 --> 00:10:50,730 formed and those are very vulnerable 222 00:10:57,260 --> 00:10:53,700 times and so when a child or an 223 00:10:59,750 --> 00:10:57,270 adolescent is overwhelmed but just say 224 00:11:01,700 --> 00:10:59,760 they got embarrassed or humiliated at 225 00:11:04,199 --> 00:11:01,710 some point at eight years older or 226 00:11:07,509 --> 00:11:04,209 they've had an accident 227 00:11:11,230 --> 00:11:07,519 just normal traumas but if they are 228 00:11:13,750 --> 00:11:11,240 overwhelmed then a part may be created 229 00:11:17,680 --> 00:11:13,760 to take over until things can be 230 00:11:21,340 --> 00:11:17,690 stabilized and so the I think that one 231 00:11:25,509 --> 00:11:21,350 of the questions you're implying Alex we 232 00:11:28,870 --> 00:11:25,519 cannot predict what subpersonality will 233 00:11:31,900 --> 00:11:28,880 be created for a person it is a unique 234 00:11:35,889 --> 00:11:31,910 creation out of that person's own mind 235 00:11:40,509 --> 00:11:35,899 the situation what kind of distress is 236 00:11:44,980 --> 00:11:40,519 involved it just can't predict what you 237 00:11:47,829 --> 00:11:44,990 can predict someone is in trauma when 238 00:11:51,220 --> 00:11:47,839 overwhelmed the sub personality will be 239 00:11:53,650 --> 00:11:51,230 created in a way even that part of the 240 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:53,660 book was very empowering to me in terms 241 00:11:59,259 --> 00:11:56,450 of understanding just general psychology 242 00:12:02,519 --> 00:11:59,269 why I get angry when my chrome doesn't 243 00:12:05,050 --> 00:12:02,529 refresh is I think that's rather 244 00:12:07,090 --> 00:12:05,060 irrational or why I think the weather 245 00:12:09,250 --> 00:12:07,100 should be the way that I need it to be 246 00:12:10,810 --> 00:12:09,260 and I look at the irrationality of that 247 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:10,820 and I step back oh wow what was that 248 00:12:16,210 --> 00:12:13,850 reaction and I think your your book and 249 00:12:19,060 --> 00:12:16,220 even just because I wasn't familiar with 250 00:12:22,660 --> 00:12:19,070 this kind of egocentric kind of approach 251 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:22,670 it just it kind of clicked for me in a 252 00:12:27,550 --> 00:12:25,010 very normal way that didn't scare me or 253 00:12:29,230 --> 00:12:27,560 make me feel like I was strange in any 254 00:12:31,420 --> 00:12:29,240 way but just that this was kind of a 255 00:12:33,639 --> 00:12:31,430 normal process that consciousness does 256 00:12:36,130 --> 00:12:33,649 to deal with things that come up so 257 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:36,140 that's I don't want to make too big of a 258 00:12:39,190 --> 00:12:37,850 deal out of it but I guess I we want to 259 00:12:41,699 --> 00:12:39,200 make kind of a big deal out of it 260 00:12:44,410 --> 00:12:41,709 because I think it is the foundation for 261 00:12:47,230 --> 00:12:44,420 this clinical work that you do and again 262 00:12:48,910 --> 00:12:47,240 folks I can't stress enough you know dr. 263 00:12:51,430 --> 00:12:48,920 Zinser is doing clinical work he's 264 00:12:53,560 --> 00:12:51,440 trying to make these patients more 265 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:53,570 effective in their life and what I love 266 00:12:57,910 --> 00:12:55,370 about this guy is he's constantly 267 00:13:00,819 --> 00:12:57,920 looking for new protocols and he's 268 00:13:02,530 --> 00:13:00,829 testing those in an appropriate way with 269 00:13:05,500 --> 00:13:02,540 his clients to see if it's more 270 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:05,510 efficacious than the last so I don't 271 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:06,890 know I think we do need to get all that 272 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:10,370 out there well I would agree with you 273 00:13:15,020 --> 00:13:13,850 completely subpersonalities I think is 274 00:13:16,850 --> 00:13:15,030 an extreme 275 00:13:21,430 --> 00:13:16,860 important concept for understanding 276 00:13:23,690 --> 00:13:21,440 ourselves but I would emphasize that 277 00:13:27,230 --> 00:13:23,700 subpersonalities whether what we might 278 00:13:30,170 --> 00:13:27,240 call ego stage limited all the way to 279 00:13:33,620 --> 00:13:30,180 multiple personality where you have 280 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:33,630 extreme alter personality that whole 281 00:13:42,070 --> 00:13:37,650 continuum it is not necessarily accepted 282 00:13:44,540 --> 00:13:42,080 fully by all of psychology or psychiatry 283 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:44,550 hold on right there I want you to speak 284 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:46,410 to that because part of what you're 285 00:13:52,820 --> 00:13:49,530 saying completely flies in the face of 286 00:13:55,130 --> 00:13:52,830 what a lot of people in the 287 00:13:57,290 --> 00:13:55,140 quote-unquote psychology community 288 00:13:59,720 --> 00:13:57,300 psychiatry community mental health 289 00:14:02,180 --> 00:13:59,730 community they are not on board with 290 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:02,190 this and and you really braise this 291 00:14:08,710 --> 00:14:05,250 point very powerfully in your book and 292 00:14:10,930 --> 00:14:08,720 that is this what I always slam on as 293 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:10,940 don't even have a meaningful 294 00:14:14,930 --> 00:14:13,290 understanding of consciousness and I'm 295 00:14:17,690 --> 00:14:14,940 not just throwing stones I'm saying it 296 00:14:20,150 --> 00:14:17,700 isn't coherent of my inside of their own 297 00:14:22,310 --> 00:14:20,160 framework so here you are doing 298 00:14:25,310 --> 00:14:22,320 hypnotherapy there we don't have any 299 00:14:27,470 --> 00:14:25,320 model for how or why hypnotherapy should 300 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:27,480 work so we let that into the tent and 301 00:14:31,550 --> 00:14:29,490 then at the same time we go yeah but 302 00:14:33,890 --> 00:14:31,560 it's all brain based biological robot 303 00:14:37,130 --> 00:14:33,900 meaningless universe stuff it's not 304 00:14:39,020 --> 00:14:37,140 really coherent well I would make the 305 00:14:42,770 --> 00:14:39,030 distinction first between the clinician 306 00:14:45,970 --> 00:14:42,780 and the acronym issue there are a number 307 00:14:48,620 --> 00:14:45,980 of therapies that are that accept 308 00:14:50,690 --> 00:14:48,630 subpersonalities and they call it parts 309 00:14:54,130 --> 00:14:50,700 therapy they call a transactional 310 00:14:57,230 --> 00:14:54,140 therapy asaji all are called it psycho 311 00:14:58,990 --> 00:14:57,240 synthesis there are a number of 312 00:15:01,700 --> 00:14:59,000 approaches that have recognized 313 00:15:04,100 --> 00:15:01,710 subpersonalities but almost all of them 314 00:15:06,110 --> 00:15:04,110 or maybe all of them cannot come out of 315 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:06,120 the clinical tradition when you're 316 00:15:11,390 --> 00:15:09,210 actually working with people and in in 317 00:15:16,820 --> 00:15:11,400 the work you see these people kind of 318 00:15:20,780 --> 00:15:16,830 split the the academic and the empirical 319 00:15:23,390 --> 00:15:20,790 scientist side of psychology they can't 320 00:15:26,870 --> 00:15:23,400 get a handle on this unless they want to 321 00:15:28,510 --> 00:15:26,880 come into the clinical and so you're not 322 00:15:31,030 --> 00:15:28,520 you're going to find less 323 00:15:33,940 --> 00:15:31,040 acceptance in the academic and in the 324 00:15:37,540 --> 00:15:33,950 empirical science schools then you're 325 00:15:40,180 --> 00:15:37,550 going to find in the clinical so that's 326 00:15:42,270 --> 00:15:40,190 one big distinction this the clinical 327 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:42,280 area of psychology you're gonna see 328 00:15:47,530 --> 00:15:45,530 subpersonality be a more accepted 329 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:47,540 concept I'm glad you made that 330 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:49,250 distinction between the clinical and the 331 00:15:55,900 --> 00:15:52,210 academic the boots on the ground folks 332 00:15:58,240 --> 00:15:55,910 see it they're not inclined to 333 00:15:59,980 --> 00:15:58,250 completely deny it and pretend like 334 00:16:01,990 --> 00:15:59,990 their experience does it matter so 335 00:16:04,930 --> 00:16:02,000 they're trying to explain it we see the 336 00:16:06,310 --> 00:16:04,940 same thing with near-death experience 337 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:06,320 where the people are really making 338 00:16:11,410 --> 00:16:09,410 headway is the cardiology sis's I can't 339 00:16:14,170 --> 00:16:11,420 deny the fact that the person was dead 340 00:16:15,790 --> 00:16:14,180 that their heart stopped and then and 341 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:15,800 they I can't deny the fact that they 342 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:17,210 came back and were counted their 343 00:16:19,660 --> 00:16:19,010 resuscitation in a way that doesn't make 344 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:19,670 any sense 345 00:16:24,940 --> 00:16:21,890 so I have to investigate that and then 346 00:16:27,100 --> 00:16:24,950 meanwhile you have the cognitive science 347 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:27,110 people and the other people saying well 348 00:16:32,110 --> 00:16:29,570 that just doesn't fit in our paradigm so 349 00:16:34,090 --> 00:16:32,120 we don't have to deal with it so the 350 00:16:36,790 --> 00:16:34,100 related question of that and this is 351 00:16:39,250 --> 00:16:36,800 something I hammer on all the time I'm 352 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:39,260 skeptical but I really wanted to get 353 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:44,210 your take on it and that is how do they 354 00:16:51,190 --> 00:16:47,570 manage to hold on to such a silly 355 00:16:53,770 --> 00:16:51,200 ridiculous outdated view of 356 00:16:57,610 --> 00:16:53,780 consciousness so I hope you get what I 357 00:16:59,440 --> 00:16:57,620 mean there but tell me I think I clearly 358 00:17:02,020 --> 00:16:59,450 get it because it's one of the things 359 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:02,030 that has really preoccupied me since I 360 00:17:09,940 --> 00:17:04,730 finished my last book is what I would 361 00:17:12,010 --> 00:17:09,950 term this paradigm shift and in response 362 00:17:16,030 --> 00:17:12,020 to your question about what it is about 363 00:17:18,100 --> 00:17:16,040 these folks my sense alex is that when 364 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:18,110 it comes to the psychic a spirit 365 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:21,770 dimensions of self and reality ourselves 366 00:17:30,850 --> 00:17:27,050 as soul it leads to an all-or-none kind 367 00:17:33,790 --> 00:17:30,860 of line you're either all in or you're 368 00:17:36,340 --> 00:17:33,800 still hedging and the empirical 369 00:17:39,430 --> 00:17:36,350 scientist today the cognitive 370 00:17:42,110 --> 00:17:39,440 psychologist the people who really fight 371 00:17:45,260 --> 00:17:42,120 against these kind of other 372 00:17:48,230 --> 00:17:45,270 mansions they're facing that all-or-none 373 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:48,240 line because if you cross it 374 00:17:54,620 --> 00:17:50,850 if you cross it your world is going to 375 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:54,630 turn upside down if you if you consider 376 00:18:00,590 --> 00:17:57,450 yourself to be a soul who has past lives 377 00:18:02,570 --> 00:18:00,600 has lived past lies that is going to 378 00:18:05,900 --> 00:18:02,580 change your way of thinking about who 379 00:18:08,780 --> 00:18:05,910 you are why certain things go on for you 380 00:18:12,230 --> 00:18:08,790 the way they do what you may be about 381 00:18:14,810 --> 00:18:12,240 where you're headed all of that changes 382 00:18:16,490 --> 00:18:14,820 if you cross the line and say you know I 383 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:16,500 think I've been around for more than one 384 00:18:27,919 --> 00:18:22,290 lifetime I really believe that that line 385 00:18:31,010 --> 00:18:27,929 is implicitly known by these folks at an 386 00:18:34,700 --> 00:18:31,020 unconscious level it's known and it 387 00:18:37,310 --> 00:18:34,710 scares them they resisted do you think 388 00:18:41,390 --> 00:18:37,320 it might be known at a conscious level 389 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:41,400 and is not crossed because the 390 00:18:50,419 --> 00:18:45,450 implications for social engineering 391 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:50,429 social control manipulation in either a 392 00:18:56,810 --> 00:18:53,610 positive or negative way yes I believe 393 00:18:59,180 --> 00:18:56,820 that ultimately there is the concern 394 00:19:01,450 --> 00:18:59,190 that if people really began to 395 00:19:05,180 --> 00:19:01,460 understand the power they have as 396 00:19:07,669 --> 00:19:05,190 conscious beings I would believe that 397 00:19:13,580 --> 00:19:07,679 the powers that be would not want that 398 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:13,590 to be given full freedom so Jarrod had 399 00:19:18,220 --> 00:19:16,170 said a long time ago to me thought is 400 00:19:21,020 --> 00:19:18,230 the most powerful force in the universe 401 00:19:23,120 --> 00:19:21,030 so if you can imagine people opening 402 00:19:26,030 --> 00:19:23,130 their thinking to other conscious realms 403 00:19:27,740 --> 00:19:26,040 I would see governments yes being 404 00:19:30,710 --> 00:19:27,750 threatened to somewhat by people 405 00:19:33,530 --> 00:19:30,720 discovering that kind of power and it's 406 00:19:35,330 --> 00:19:33,540 funny I totally hear you and I am 407 00:19:37,850 --> 00:19:35,340 jumping ahead here but I can't resist 408 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:37,860 speak to responsibility that goes with 409 00:19:45,290 --> 00:19:41,450 the power well yeah that's a big jump I 410 00:19:48,380 --> 00:19:45,300 mean the Jerez message is we every one 411 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:48,390 of us each of us is a beam of light in 412 00:19:55,940 --> 00:19:53,490 our soul and that is in itself powerful 413 00:20:00,139 --> 00:19:55,950 that we are powerful 414 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:00,149 this whole Jerez view is that we come 415 00:20:07,190 --> 00:20:02,970 and live our life times in order to 416 00:20:10,399 --> 00:20:07,200 awaken [\h__\h] and by that he's talking 417 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:10,409 about awakening to one's own power he's 418 00:20:15,409 --> 00:20:12,450 talking about the power of light the 419 00:20:19,070 --> 00:20:15,419 power of knowledge not not a power to 420 00:20:22,639 --> 00:20:19,080 use against others but the power to 421 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:22,649 create to be that that pure light that 422 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:26,570 you that we are so yes there is a 423 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:30,210 responsibility I guess I have to 424 00:20:37,100 --> 00:20:32,330 approach it a different way and that is 425 00:20:41,269 --> 00:20:37,110 each of us born created with absolute 426 00:20:45,769 --> 00:20:41,279 free choice our responsibility is to not 427 00:20:48,009 --> 00:20:45,779 violate others free choice we have 428 00:20:50,690 --> 00:20:48,019 refree choice we keep that free choice 429 00:20:54,470 --> 00:20:50,700 so these two in terms of responsibility 430 00:20:58,750 --> 00:20:54,480 is that we not violate others free 431 00:21:01,970 --> 00:20:58,760 choice but Jared will say that is in 432 00:21:03,620 --> 00:21:01,980 incarnations as humans we explore all 433 00:21:04,399 --> 00:21:03,630 kinds of things between the light and 434 00:21:07,159 --> 00:21:04,409 the dark 435 00:21:10,669 --> 00:21:07,169 that's that's what that's what Awakening 436 00:21:14,149 --> 00:21:10,679 is about responsibility isn't not 437 00:21:18,259 --> 00:21:14,159 violating others awesome and we did take 438 00:21:20,299 --> 00:21:18,269 a big jump so let's back up and let's go 439 00:21:23,120 --> 00:21:20,309 right back to the beginning of this 440 00:21:26,330 --> 00:21:23,130 story because I kind of left a little 441 00:21:29,529 --> 00:21:26,340 bit of a cliffhanger there so you're a 442 00:21:32,779 --> 00:21:29,539 practicing clinical psychologist 443 00:21:34,669 --> 00:21:32,789 hypnotherapist and this woman who you 444 00:21:37,100 --> 00:21:34,679 know because she works in your office 445 00:21:38,389 --> 00:21:37,110 but you don't know her that well comes 446 00:21:40,730 --> 00:21:38,399 in to your office 447 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:40,740 because she's overheard because you're 448 00:21:44,149 --> 00:21:42,330 kind of an open-ended guy and you're 449 00:21:45,529 --> 00:21:44,159 exploring hypnotherapy so some of the 450 00:21:47,509 --> 00:21:45,539 guys in the office are talking about 451 00:21:49,370 --> 00:21:47,519 Robert Monroe and out-of-body 452 00:21:51,470 --> 00:21:49,380 experiences you haven't played around 453 00:21:55,639 --> 00:21:51,480 with that and she hears that and she 454 00:21:57,710 --> 00:21:55,649 sees an opening so she comes in and what 455 00:22:01,940 --> 00:21:57,720 does she talk to you about and what 456 00:22:05,149 --> 00:22:01,950 happens next well Katherine offered me 457 00:22:08,830 --> 00:22:05,159 an opportunity to have a session with 458 00:22:11,509 --> 00:22:08,840 the spirit entity that she channeled 459 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:11,519 how does that how does that conversation 460 00:22:16,100 --> 00:22:14,129 go how does somebody sit down with you 461 00:22:19,090 --> 00:22:16,110 and say I've been channeling the spirit 462 00:22:21,889 --> 00:22:19,100 and I he might be willing to talk to you 463 00:22:24,499 --> 00:22:21,899 well but something I never considered 464 00:22:25,730 --> 00:22:24,509 with everything I did but she came in 465 00:22:29,210 --> 00:22:25,740 said she had overheard the conversation 466 00:22:32,330 --> 00:22:29,220 in the lunchroom and it brought back to 467 00:22:35,509 --> 00:22:32,340 her that as a much younger woman she 468 00:22:39,379 --> 00:22:35,519 hadn't experienced where Jared had 469 00:22:43,279 --> 00:22:39,389 approached her mentally and she she had 470 00:22:45,739 --> 00:22:43,289 shut it down and when she heard me 471 00:22:47,570 --> 00:22:45,749 talking about out-of-body experience and 472 00:22:49,909 --> 00:22:47,580 these kinds of things 473 00:22:52,909 --> 00:22:49,919 she said she sat down again with her 474 00:22:55,489 --> 00:22:52,919 husband and went into her trance and 475 00:22:56,749 --> 00:22:55,499 Jared was right there she wasn't quite 476 00:23:00,460 --> 00:22:56,759 sure what to make of it 477 00:23:04,159 --> 00:23:00,470 so she approached me as a way to maybe 478 00:23:06,409 --> 00:23:04,169 validate or help her be clear on what 479 00:23:09,049 --> 00:23:06,419 exactly this Jared thing was and what 480 00:23:11,269 --> 00:23:09,059 happened and meanwhile she was offering 481 00:23:14,810 --> 00:23:11,279 me an experience with one of these 482 00:23:18,519 --> 00:23:14,820 paranormal or anomalous sorts of 483 00:23:21,710 --> 00:23:18,529 experiences so I was open i sat down 484 00:23:24,499 --> 00:23:21,720 what I had to lose you you're open tom 485 00:23:26,570 --> 00:23:24,509 but you know let's let's dive into that 486 00:23:28,879 --> 00:23:26,580 a little bit further because you're a 487 00:23:31,009 --> 00:23:28,889 smart guy you're thinking about a lot of 488 00:23:35,230 --> 00:23:31,019 things you're reading a ton of books so 489 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:35,240 I'm sure at this point you're also leery 490 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:39,090 skeptical careful about channeling 491 00:23:44,210 --> 00:23:41,970 spirits we've all heard this it can lead 492 00:23:47,450 --> 00:23:44,220 to a lot of confusion at the very least 493 00:23:50,930 --> 00:23:47,460 it can lead to just misinformation and 494 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:50,940 being trickster door even worse kind of 495 00:23:57,759 --> 00:23:53,850 thing so as you approach this what kind 496 00:24:00,350 --> 00:23:57,769 of not just safeguards but how are you 497 00:24:04,399 --> 00:24:00,360 thinking you will approach this as a 498 00:24:07,159 --> 00:24:04,409 clinician well let me give an example of 499 00:24:12,289 --> 00:24:07,169 my first conversation with Jared what 500 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:12,299 and the case that came up and that was a 501 00:24:19,450 --> 00:24:14,369 fella I was working with he he was 502 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:19,460 around 40 and in trying to identify his 503 00:24:21,860 --> 00:24:21,210 subpersonalities out they were getting 504 00:24:25,430 --> 00:24:21,870 in the way 505 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:25,440 I was getting communication from the 506 00:24:31,430 --> 00:24:28,970 inner world and as I tried to pin down 507 00:24:32,930 --> 00:24:31,440 can i interject here with it with I want 508 00:24:37,310 --> 00:24:32,940 you to clarify something for me 509 00:24:40,610 --> 00:24:37,320 is it ideomotor signaling right did you 510 00:24:42,799 --> 00:24:40,620 go ahead and explain to people what this 511 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:42,809 particular kind of hypnotherapy 512 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:46,770 technique is the ideomotor response is 513 00:24:52,730 --> 00:24:51,210 an old old hypnotic technique and it is 514 00:24:56,149 --> 00:24:52,740 a way of communicating with the 515 00:24:59,330 --> 00:24:56,159 unconscious through signals rather than 516 00:25:01,669 --> 00:24:59,340 verbal interaction so we want to put 517 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:01,679 people in a deep trance so we can get to 518 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:03,570 that deeper part of the subconscious 519 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:04,890 even though we don't know what any of 520 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:06,450 these terms mean we don't really know 521 00:25:10,039 --> 00:25:08,250 what hypnotherapy is doing we don't know 522 00:25:11,360 --> 00:25:10,049 what deep consciousness would be we 523 00:25:12,860 --> 00:25:11,370 don't know any of that but it were just 524 00:25:15,500 --> 00:25:12,870 as a clinician you're saying hey this is 525 00:25:19,039 --> 00:25:15,510 effective get to a deep trance state get 526 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:19,049 the verbal part of the whole brain thing 527 00:25:25,669 --> 00:25:21,450 out of it and just see if I can get 528 00:25:29,750 --> 00:25:25,679 really simple kind of signals right yes 529 00:25:34,340 --> 00:25:29,760 asking yes or no questions any signals 530 00:25:37,039 --> 00:25:34,350 yes no stop or I don't know and this 531 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:37,049 technique using signals and I use finger 532 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:41,610 signals it is a very quick way to bypass 533 00:25:47,090 --> 00:25:44,850 the conscious mind get the verbal self 534 00:25:49,250 --> 00:25:47,100 out of the way so that the client 535 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:49,260 consciously is not responsible for 536 00:25:57,169 --> 00:25:53,730 anything I'm asking I am NOT asking them 537 00:25:59,720 --> 00:25:57,179 I'm asking they're unconscious mind so 538 00:26:02,720 --> 00:25:59,730 the ideomotor response is what I'm using 539 00:26:06,620 --> 00:26:02,730 with clients back then so you go to talk 540 00:26:09,830 --> 00:26:06,630 to Jared and how does that go well it 541 00:26:13,370 --> 00:26:09,840 took a while for him Jared and I to 542 00:26:16,010 --> 00:26:13,380 develop a language and understanding but 543 00:26:18,409 --> 00:26:16,020 in that first session I did bring up a 544 00:26:22,700 --> 00:26:18,419 case this one where I kept getting 545 00:26:25,700 --> 00:26:22,710 contradictory answers and he gave me 546 00:26:28,490 --> 00:26:25,710 information and he said that there was a 547 00:26:32,139 --> 00:26:28,500 spirit presence with this client who was 548 00:26:35,049 --> 00:26:32,149 interfering with him and confusing and 549 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:35,059 that was 550 00:26:41,529 --> 00:26:38,570 bit of a shock to me but I did take it 551 00:26:45,100 --> 00:26:41,539 back in the next therapy session with 552 00:26:47,950 --> 00:26:45,110 this man and I started asking questions 553 00:26:50,619 --> 00:26:47,960 as if Jarrod's information were correct 554 00:26:52,869 --> 00:26:50,629 that there was a spirit present hold on 555 00:26:55,090 --> 00:26:52,879 right there time this is a huge leap and 556 00:26:57,879 --> 00:26:55,100 you alluded to this at the very 557 00:26:59,049 --> 00:26:57,889 beginning of this interview that it 558 00:27:00,489 --> 00:26:59,059 almost sounded like you felt a little 559 00:27:03,879 --> 00:27:00,499 bit guilty that you went off reservation 560 00:27:06,659 --> 00:27:03,889 like this in terms of the normal 561 00:27:10,330 --> 00:27:06,669 protocol that's being used but I love 562 00:27:12,940 --> 00:27:10,340 the clinician in you in the way that you 563 00:27:14,980 --> 00:27:12,950 approach this is you are going to take 564 00:27:18,009 --> 00:27:14,990 this information and with all your 565 00:27:20,499 --> 00:27:18,019 training background and experience which 566 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:20,509 is very substantial at this point you 567 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:23,690 are going to test this in a real way did 568 00:27:29,619 --> 00:27:25,730 you worry at all at this point that you 569 00:27:31,629 --> 00:27:29,629 might be leading yourself into a state 570 00:27:34,029 --> 00:27:31,639 of where you might be deluding yourself 571 00:27:35,859 --> 00:27:34,039 when you go talk to your clients as I 572 00:27:38,379 --> 00:27:35,869 said I had been communicating with this 573 00:27:42,249 --> 00:27:38,389 client trying to the unconscious getting 574 00:27:44,379 --> 00:27:42,259 these contradictory responses but when 575 00:27:47,950 --> 00:27:44,389 Jared gave me this information when I 576 00:27:51,489 --> 00:27:47,960 went back to my client I was already in 577 00:27:54,430 --> 00:27:51,499 the habit of a question and working with 578 00:27:57,430 --> 00:27:54,440 him before with all the contradictions I 579 00:28:00,450 --> 00:27:57,440 did not feel I was communicating all of 580 00:28:04,180 --> 00:28:00,460 a sudden with Jerez information 581 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:04,190 reframing it and asking the questions I 582 00:28:10,180 --> 00:28:07,610 began to get responses that made sense 583 00:28:12,580 --> 00:28:10,190 to me now let's make sure we're explicit 584 00:28:14,889 --> 00:28:12,590 about this reframing because as I 585 00:28:16,029 --> 00:28:14,899 understand it and again Tom please 586 00:28:19,749 --> 00:28:16,039 correct me because I might have 587 00:28:21,669 --> 00:28:19,759 misinterpreted things is that your the 588 00:28:25,060 --> 00:28:21,679 hypnotherapy technique that you're using 589 00:28:28,450 --> 00:28:25,070 this signalling you shift now from 590 00:28:32,259 --> 00:28:28,460 talking to the ego part of this person 591 00:28:34,269 --> 00:28:32,269 to a separate spirit entity that is 592 00:28:37,570 --> 00:28:34,279 somehow communicating through this 593 00:28:41,049 --> 00:28:37,580 person and that leads to it leads to 594 00:28:45,490 --> 00:28:41,059 what what does it lead to Wow now we're 595 00:28:48,850 --> 00:28:45,500 talking 32 years ago here I went through 596 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:48,860 communication with this spirit when 597 00:28:54,910 --> 00:28:51,650 klein wasn't trans but he was also 598 00:28:58,690 --> 00:28:54,920 consciously getting things coming to him 599 00:29:03,160 --> 00:28:58,700 and so he would intermittently also be 600 00:29:04,930 --> 00:29:03,170 reporting things to me verbally and he 601 00:29:08,950 --> 00:29:04,940 could feel this he could feel what was 602 00:29:12,039 --> 00:29:08,960 happening and he also had his own sense 603 00:29:15,310 --> 00:29:12,049 that this was not him and so he was he 604 00:29:17,169 --> 00:29:15,320 was shocked as well i mean we both were 605 00:29:20,110 --> 00:29:17,179 shocked by this because he wasn't 606 00:29:23,530 --> 00:29:20,120 expecting it that's for sure so it was 607 00:29:27,130 --> 00:29:23,540 my first attempt to engage and 608 00:29:31,450 --> 00:29:27,140 communicate in a way with what appeared 609 00:29:33,850 --> 00:29:31,460 to be a separate entity and i felt that 610 00:29:35,770 --> 00:29:33,860 i received enough confirmation enough 611 00:29:38,740 --> 00:29:35,780 back-and-forth communication with this 612 00:29:41,500 --> 00:29:38,750 entity and the information we finally 613 00:29:44,789 --> 00:29:41,510 had is that it was willing to leave so 614 00:29:47,919 --> 00:29:44,799 it's not like i came out of that 100% 615 00:29:51,690 --> 00:29:47,929 convinced but but it had talked to me 616 00:29:55,690 --> 00:29:51,700 went for so many sessions it hadn't and 617 00:29:59,590 --> 00:29:55,700 that was a step forward so that begins 618 00:30:02,950 --> 00:29:59,600 this process that you enter into with 619 00:30:07,510 --> 00:30:02,960 jared where you were actually consulting 620 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:07,520 with him about clients and as strange as 621 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:10,250 that might sound and as for some people 622 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:12,770 it might sound unprofessional it might 623 00:30:15,700 --> 00:30:14,090 sound like you have crossed some 624 00:30:18,490 --> 00:30:15,710 boundary there that you're not supposed 625 00:30:20,830 --> 00:30:18,500 to cross although again i would again 626 00:30:23,380 --> 00:30:20,840 take this back folks and say what 627 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:23,390 boundary do we think we're creating if 628 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:25,610 this is the greater reality and we found 629 00:30:32,020 --> 00:30:28,130 a way to access that greater reality and 630 00:30:34,930 --> 00:30:32,030 possibly apply good scientific methods 631 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:34,940 to it why would we want to hold off from 632 00:30:38,230 --> 00:30:36,650 doing that for just some arbitrary 633 00:30:41,169 --> 00:30:38,240 reasons we've said but i don't want to 634 00:30:43,510 --> 00:30:41,179 bury the lead here you as you document 635 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:43,520 in this incredible book that people need 636 00:30:50,250 --> 00:30:45,650 to really really get and and fully 637 00:30:53,289 --> 00:30:50,260 experience what went on here you get 638 00:30:55,799 --> 00:30:53,299 specific information from jared about 639 00:30:58,299 --> 00:30:55,809 clients that you're then able to use 640 00:31:00,070 --> 00:30:58,309 clinically what was that process like 641 00:31:02,060 --> 00:31:00,080 I'm sure it was confirming to you we 642 00:31:04,250 --> 00:31:02,070 just talked about the first case but 643 00:31:08,780 --> 00:31:04,260 hundreds and hundreds of cases right yes 644 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:08,790 yes and I mean basically the after my 645 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:10,650 first session when Jared and my going 646 00:31:16,610 --> 00:31:14,010 taking it back to my clients I was so 647 00:31:18,740 --> 00:31:16,620 intrigued with this possibility I asked 648 00:31:21,410 --> 00:31:18,750 Katherine month later for another 649 00:31:23,990 --> 00:31:21,420 session which he agreed to and I talked 650 00:31:26,060 --> 00:31:24,000 with Jared again this was really done in 651 00:31:27,740 --> 00:31:26,070 automatic writing it wasn't done 652 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:27,750 verbally talking with Kara 653 00:31:32,630 --> 00:31:30,210 well after that second session which 654 00:31:34,430 --> 00:31:32,640 aired a month later I asked Katherine if 655 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:34,440 you would never know that one because 656 00:31:39,230 --> 00:31:36,690 this information was it just was right 657 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:39,240 on so about four months after I met 658 00:31:45,050 --> 00:31:43,410 Jared Effie and I agreed on forming this 659 00:31:48,230 --> 00:31:45,060 collaboration with Jared 660 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:48,240 so I began meeting with Katherine once a 661 00:31:53,420 --> 00:31:50,730 week during the week with clients I kept 662 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:53,430 a list of questions on my legal path so 663 00:31:59,240 --> 00:31:56,010 I would write down questions about where 664 00:32:01,310 --> 00:31:59,250 we got stuck with the client or what was 665 00:32:03,830 --> 00:32:01,320 happening but also wrote down 666 00:32:06,650 --> 00:32:03,840 metaphysical questions on that legal pad 667 00:32:08,990 --> 00:32:06,660 and then at the end of the week I would 668 00:32:13,090 --> 00:32:09,000 meet with Jared with my questions there 669 00:32:16,070 --> 00:32:13,100 go over all of those I would go home and 670 00:32:19,550 --> 00:32:16,080 during the week I would transcribe that 671 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:19,560 session and take that information back 672 00:32:25,550 --> 00:32:23,130 to the sessions with my clients using 673 00:32:28,730 --> 00:32:25,560 that information with each of those 674 00:32:32,390 --> 00:32:28,740 individual clients then I would take 675 00:32:36,500 --> 00:32:32,400 that communication that hypnotherapy 676 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:36,510 work and see if I could engage see if I 677 00:32:42,650 --> 00:32:39,450 could get a communication and it 678 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:42,660 happened over and over and that leads to 679 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:45,090 as we learn in the book it leads to you 680 00:32:50,510 --> 00:32:47,490 developing more of I don't want us to 681 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:50,520 say intuitive but an intuitive sense of 682 00:32:54,980 --> 00:32:53,370 what might be going on so your questions 683 00:32:56,540 --> 00:32:54,990 to Jared as we're reading the book or 684 00:32:58,100 --> 00:32:56,550 more pointed you kind of know hey I 685 00:33:00,320 --> 00:32:58,110 think this is going on and can you 686 00:33:03,500 --> 00:33:00,330 confirm that rather than what the heck 687 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:03,510 is going on let's just stop there 688 00:33:08,900 --> 00:33:05,850 well there's kind of the process of 689 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:08,910 jared identifying something am i going 690 00:33:13,370 --> 00:33:11,130 and testing it out I mean you got people 691 00:33:15,530 --> 00:33:13,380 with past life stuff he got people with 692 00:33:15,940 --> 00:33:15,540 spirit attachments you got people just 693 00:33:18,530 --> 00:33:15,950 there 694 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:18,540 subpersonalities all these different 695 00:33:24,380 --> 00:33:21,650 clients I would follow up with him and 696 00:33:27,100 --> 00:33:24,390 then take that information back in all 697 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:27,110 the different situations and see if I 698 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:31,290 could have ongoing communication but he 699 00:33:37,100 --> 00:33:33,930 would identify something at first and I 700 00:33:39,290 --> 00:33:37,110 feel a need to bring in here that one of 701 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:39,300 the things he identified was that part 702 00:33:45,890 --> 00:33:42,570 of us sell ourselves that he called the 703 00:33:49,490 --> 00:33:45,900 higher self and that higher self 704 00:33:52,070 --> 00:33:49,500 according to Jared knew so much of the 705 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:52,080 person's inner world was aware of their 706 00:33:59,230 --> 00:33:55,530 soul history was able to be a conduit of 707 00:34:02,480 --> 00:33:59,240 light for each of us in our present life 708 00:34:06,650 --> 00:34:02,490 this higher self became more and more a 709 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:06,660 central figure that I worked with when 710 00:34:11,510 --> 00:34:09,210 each client that I would establish 711 00:34:15,649 --> 00:34:11,520 communication with their higher selves 712 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:15,659 now Jared has said when I and I explored 713 00:34:21,050 --> 00:34:17,810 this deeply with him about higher self 714 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:21,060 he pictured the higher self as though 715 00:34:26,990 --> 00:34:24,090 the soul projected a piece of itself 716 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:27,000 into the present life when the person is 717 00:34:32,990 --> 00:34:30,210 born and in projecting that piece of 718 00:34:34,850 --> 00:34:33,000 itself that higher self knew it was part 719 00:34:37,970 --> 00:34:34,860 of the light it knew was part of the 720 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:37,980 soul and it was for this person's 721 00:34:44,210 --> 00:34:40,530 lifetime living innocence a beacon of 722 00:34:47,119 --> 00:34:44,220 light an inner guide and I began to work 723 00:34:51,110 --> 00:34:47,129 with that higher self to be a part that 724 00:34:53,740 --> 00:34:51,120 could explore and identify parts of the 725 00:34:56,990 --> 00:34:53,750 self that were in trouble grad problems 726 00:35:00,020 --> 00:34:57,000 to make it Eve to me even more 727 00:35:02,870 --> 00:35:00,030 impressive the higher self could 728 00:35:05,660 --> 00:35:02,880 communicate directly to the ego space 729 00:35:08,240 --> 00:35:05,670 the sub personality it's as if the 730 00:35:11,630 --> 00:35:08,250 higher self could go to where the sub 731 00:35:14,420 --> 00:35:11,640 personality was and communicate to it 732 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:14,430 directly and higher self could also 733 00:35:20,540 --> 00:35:17,130 bring that subpersonality the divine 734 00:35:23,420 --> 00:35:20,550 light from the soul and from the Creator 735 00:35:26,030 --> 00:35:23,430 could bring the light to the sub 736 00:35:28,010 --> 00:35:26,040 personality and this is another one of 737 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:28,020 those confirmation things and I would 738 00:35:31,849 --> 00:35:29,130 tell you it's one of the most 739 00:35:36,859 --> 00:35:31,859 powerful I have worked with thousands 740 00:35:40,609 --> 00:35:36,869 and thousands with subpersonalities 99% 741 00:35:44,240 --> 00:35:40,619 of the time once higher-self brought the 742 00:35:46,759 --> 00:35:44,250 light to a subpersonality it changed his 743 00:35:49,579 --> 00:35:46,769 attitude and his perception almost 744 00:35:52,789 --> 00:35:49,589 immediately it became agreeable with the 745 00:35:55,849 --> 00:35:52,799 healing process it became agreeable with 746 00:36:00,049 --> 00:35:55,859 heal sharing its trauma even though that 747 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:00,059 was painful when you see something like 748 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:03,690 that happened 99% of the power to me 749 00:36:08,900 --> 00:36:06,450 that's a scientific finding it's a 750 00:36:12,019 --> 00:36:08,910 consistent finding the significance is 751 00:36:14,720 --> 00:36:12,029 out of the ballpark and but that still 752 00:36:17,029 --> 00:36:14,730 happens today now we have a bunch of 753 00:36:19,609 --> 00:36:17,039 skeptical questions that you just kind 754 00:36:22,930 --> 00:36:19,619 of raised let's get to code drill here 755 00:36:26,089 --> 00:36:22,940 so nothing nothing to be surprised about 756 00:36:27,890 --> 00:36:26,099 well one thing is you're gonna trigger a 757 00:36:29,089 --> 00:36:27,900 lot of people I hate that word but it's 758 00:36:31,809 --> 00:36:29,099 the right word you're gonna trigger a 759 00:36:36,289 --> 00:36:31,819 lot of people with certainly with divine 760 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:36,299 with God with Creator with even higher 761 00:36:43,299 --> 00:36:39,690 self these are all words that are highly 762 00:36:45,829 --> 00:36:43,309 charged in our society and our culture 763 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:45,839 particularly because of the religious 764 00:36:52,519 --> 00:36:49,410 connotations to them so Kent but as part 765 00:36:55,910 --> 00:36:52,529 of the way to dive into that talk to me 766 00:37:00,049 --> 00:36:55,920 about religion and how you understand 767 00:37:02,390 --> 00:37:00,059 religion fitting into what became your 768 00:37:04,549 --> 00:37:02,400 larger worldview your larger 769 00:37:07,609 --> 00:37:04,559 understanding of the extended 770 00:37:10,519 --> 00:37:07,619 consciousness realms I basically think 771 00:37:10,940 --> 00:37:10,529 in terms of spirituality in spiritual 772 00:37:15,970 --> 00:37:10,950 realm 773 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:15,980 I look at religions plural as forms 774 00:37:23,029 --> 00:37:20,490 attempting to help humans come to know 775 00:37:26,329 --> 00:37:23,039 and understand their divinity their own 776 00:37:27,829 --> 00:37:26,339 divine light their soul okay but let me 777 00:37:29,799 --> 00:37:27,839 interject a question here cuz I just 778 00:37:32,630 --> 00:37:29,809 talked to a guy maybe two weeks ago 779 00:37:35,390 --> 00:37:32,640 terrific guy's name is David ditch field 780 00:37:36,950 --> 00:37:35,400 he had this increase from the UK he had 781 00:37:39,470 --> 00:37:36,960 this incredible near-death experience 782 00:37:41,749 --> 00:37:39,480 where he was dragged under a train and 783 00:37:42,570 --> 00:37:41,759 you know left his body and he met God 784 00:37:45,300 --> 00:37:42,580 and he saw 785 00:37:48,390 --> 00:37:45,310 Jesus and he came back and he was 786 00:37:52,290 --> 00:37:48,400 meeting with with a person at a 787 00:37:55,230 --> 00:37:52,300 spiritualist Church who had abilities to 788 00:37:57,780 --> 00:37:55,240 see and understand these extended realms 789 00:38:00,390 --> 00:37:57,790 and she said you met Jesus didn't you 790 00:38:02,550 --> 00:38:00,400 and he goes yeah I met Jesus and I was 791 00:38:05,310 --> 00:38:02,560 talking to David and I said what do you 792 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:05,320 think about that how do you understand 793 00:38:09,540 --> 00:38:07,810 that idea that you met quote/unquote 794 00:38:12,780 --> 00:38:09,550 Jesus because if we look for Jesus 795 00:38:14,610 --> 00:38:12,790 historically we don't always find Jesus 796 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:14,620 and if we look at what some people have 797 00:38:20,010 --> 00:38:17,530 done with her with their Jesus we don't 798 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:20,020 really feel so great about that and yet 799 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:22,330 this was he felt very confident that 800 00:38:28,650 --> 00:38:25,570 this was his experience in this extended 801 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:28,660 realm and that experience was mediated 802 00:38:34,590 --> 00:38:32,290 by a higher spirit guide that was 803 00:38:37,230 --> 00:38:34,600 interested in his good and it sounded 804 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:37,240 like it sounded all good he wasn't he 805 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:38,650 didn't come back and do a bunch of evil 806 00:38:43,140 --> 00:38:41,290 stuff to the contrary he came back and 807 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:43,150 seemed to be changed for the positive 808 00:38:49,020 --> 00:38:46,210 how are we to understand for example 809 00:38:52,380 --> 00:38:49,030 that guy's experience or millions of 810 00:38:55,890 --> 00:38:52,390 other people's experience with a Jesus 811 00:38:58,590 --> 00:38:55,900 that may or may not be historical in the 812 00:39:00,870 --> 00:38:58,600 sense that we think about you're asking 813 00:39:05,460 --> 00:39:00,880 big questions Alex see in the spirit 814 00:39:10,340 --> 00:39:05,470 realm of light where Souls exist there 815 00:39:12,810 --> 00:39:10,350 are spirit guides there are those 816 00:39:16,650 --> 00:39:12,820 departed loved ones and all of us have 817 00:39:20,460 --> 00:39:16,660 who have passed on those souls in the 818 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:20,470 light can also be aware of us and Jared 819 00:39:25,500 --> 00:39:22,210 had said that from the beginning the 820 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:25,510 promise and he used the term light or 821 00:39:32,700 --> 00:39:29,770 God that the promise was made that each 822 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:32,710 of us who incarnated every soul who 823 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:36,810 incarnated would have a spirit card and 824 00:39:42,930 --> 00:39:40,810 so my view is we all have at least one 825 00:39:45,780 --> 00:39:42,940 spirit guide we may have different 826 00:39:48,030 --> 00:39:45,790 guides during our lifetime and at times 827 00:39:51,870 --> 00:39:48,040 we may have more than one guide involved 828 00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:51,880 with us so when we talk about in the 829 00:39:56,370 --> 00:39:53,770 near-death experience when we talk about 830 00:39:58,380 --> 00:39:56,380 people who are close to death and 831 00:40:00,900 --> 00:39:58,390 Hospice who are getting ready to make 832 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:00,910 transition they will see the part of 833 00:40:08,339 --> 00:40:03,490 family members come to them that is so 834 00:40:12,150 --> 00:40:08,349 common and thing is in spirit realm and 835 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:12,160 at our unconscious soul level there's 836 00:40:18,410 --> 00:40:14,410 more that's known than we do know 837 00:40:21,359 --> 00:40:18,420 consciously the person who sees Jesus as 838 00:40:24,839 --> 00:40:21,369 opposed to the person who sees Muhammad 839 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:24,849 as opposed to the person who sees 840 00:40:30,839 --> 00:40:27,130 another kind of beam of light that 841 00:40:32,999 --> 00:40:30,849 presentation is for the person who's 842 00:40:35,700 --> 00:40:33,009 having the experience hold on pause 843 00:40:39,140 --> 00:40:35,710 right there and tell me we've heard that 844 00:40:43,470 --> 00:40:39,150 we've heard that so many times tell me 845 00:40:46,950 --> 00:40:43,480 specifically how that fits into what you 846 00:40:49,289 --> 00:40:46,960 learned working with your clients 847 00:40:52,289 --> 00:40:49,299 because there does seem to be a little 848 00:40:58,109 --> 00:40:52,299 bit of a disconnect for me in terms of 849 00:40:59,990 --> 00:40:58,119 if this Jesus figure is because I've 850 00:41:04,829 --> 00:41:00,000 talked to him again a number of 851 00:41:07,019 --> 00:41:04,839 well-meaning spiritual people who have a 852 00:41:09,990 --> 00:41:07,029 direct experience with Jesus which I'm 853 00:41:12,509 --> 00:41:10,000 always okay with but when I try and say 854 00:41:13,859 --> 00:41:12,519 well as I understand it you an 855 00:41:16,859 --> 00:41:13,869 experience with Christ consciousness 856 00:41:19,829 --> 00:41:16,869 they're like no Alex you don't get it I 857 00:41:22,140 --> 00:41:19,839 had an experience with Jesus and it is 858 00:41:26,059 --> 00:41:22,150 Jesus of the Bible and that's just it 859 00:41:29,220 --> 00:41:26,069 and don't tell me otherwise I would say 860 00:41:33,720 --> 00:41:29,230 that these beings who come to meters in 861 00:41:37,559 --> 00:41:33,730 different situations are conditioned by 862 00:41:40,049 --> 00:41:37,569 the person who's having the encounter if 863 00:41:44,490 --> 00:41:40,059 you grew up with Jesus and in your own 864 00:41:46,650 --> 00:41:44,500 mind and heart Jesus becomes a symbolic 865 00:41:50,370 --> 00:41:46,660 figure or not and by that I mean a 866 00:41:53,430 --> 00:41:50,380 sacred symbolic figure for this person 867 00:41:57,569 --> 00:41:53,440 that figure is imbued with energy also 868 00:42:01,109 --> 00:41:57,579 and it makes connection to the spirit 869 00:42:03,390 --> 00:42:01,119 realm and when that person whatever the 870 00:42:05,339 --> 00:42:03,400 situation shouldn't happens that calls 871 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:05,349 for that kind of encounter especially 872 00:42:09,740 --> 00:42:08,170 near death or death itself or an 873 00:42:12,900 --> 00:42:09,750 out-of-body trauma 874 00:42:15,510 --> 00:42:12,910 Jesus may be the one and I'm not even 875 00:42:18,270 --> 00:42:15,520 sure that this figure comes forward and 876 00:42:21,300 --> 00:42:18,280 says on Jesus but it may come forward 877 00:42:25,170 --> 00:42:21,310 and appear to the person with their 878 00:42:27,300 --> 00:42:25,180 symbol is calling for I don't myself 879 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:27,310 working with people I don't need to 880 00:42:34,010 --> 00:42:29,890 answer the question whether this beam of 881 00:42:36,660 --> 00:42:34,020 light is in fact Jesus personally 882 00:42:39,030 --> 00:42:36,670 because there are all kinds of beings of 883 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:39,040 light who have come to meet the people 884 00:42:42,930 --> 00:42:41,050 I've worked with then there's all kinds 885 00:42:45,110 --> 00:42:42,940 of beings of light who came to meet 886 00:42:48,030 --> 00:42:45,120 these people with near-death experience 887 00:42:51,150 --> 00:42:48,040 so I guess I would say it's more 888 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:51,160 conditioned by what the person is ready 889 00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:54,130 for or the way they perceive things or 890 00:43:00,240 --> 00:42:56,770 the way they need to see things in order 891 00:43:02,730 --> 00:43:00,250 to make the the contact but I think 892 00:43:05,340 --> 00:43:02,740 taking from your work and again I want 893 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:05,350 to emphasize this because it's like kind 894 00:43:09,510 --> 00:43:07,450 of one of my main things I put up on the 895 00:43:12,030 --> 00:43:09,520 screen something that you wrote from the 896 00:43:13,890 --> 00:43:12,040 book so you're saying past lives as with 897 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:13,900 near-death experiences there are too 898 00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:15,850 many reports from too many sources in 899 00:43:20,370 --> 00:43:18,490 too many reputable studies to just be 900 00:43:22,410 --> 00:43:20,380 flukes or fantasies we're talking for 901 00:43:24,810 --> 00:43:22,420 example about children who possess very 902 00:43:26,940 --> 00:43:24,820 specific past life memories and details 903 00:43:28,500 --> 00:43:26,950 of people in places and events from 904 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:28,510 previous lifetimes that were 905 00:43:32,490 --> 00:43:30,970 investigated and corroborated in ways 906 00:43:35,670 --> 00:43:32,500 that left no room for doubt 907 00:43:37,710 --> 00:43:35,680 now I shared that earlier on the screen 908 00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:37,720 but I wanted to read that into the show 909 00:43:45,990 --> 00:43:41,050 because here's where I go with that the 910 00:43:48,630 --> 00:43:46,000 level one discussion is is that true can 911 00:43:51,750 --> 00:43:48,640 we rely on the University of Virginia 912 00:43:53,850 --> 00:43:51,760 and Jim Tucker who did the follow-up 913 00:43:56,520 --> 00:43:53,860 work from Ian Stevenson and compiled 914 00:43:58,950 --> 00:43:56,530 thousands of these past life accounts 915 00:44:01,430 --> 00:43:58,960 and published them in an organized 916 00:44:04,140 --> 00:44:01,440 systematic way and we're totally open to 917 00:44:07,650 --> 00:44:04,150 review and criticism and withstood all 918 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:07,660 that that's level one and you just stand 919 00:44:11,010 --> 00:44:09,130 up to anyone go well if you don't 920 00:44:12,510 --> 00:44:11,020 understand that I does nothing I can do 921 00:44:16,110 --> 00:44:12,520 there's the data yeah there have to deal 922 00:44:21,420 --> 00:44:16,120 with it or not and then level two is why 923 00:44:23,310 --> 00:44:21,430 are we conditioned and kind of led to 924 00:44:25,860 --> 00:44:23,320 look away from that 925 00:44:29,820 --> 00:44:25,870 if it is that salad as we said in level 926 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:29,830 1 but level 3 is what really gets me 927 00:44:34,980 --> 00:44:32,170 excited and it's the reason why your 928 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:34,990 book and the possibilities of your work 929 00:44:41,340 --> 00:44:38,770 get me so excited cuz level 3 says okay 930 00:44:43,260 --> 00:44:41,350 I'm really not gonna worry about just 931 00:44:45,780 --> 00:44:43,270 proving whether there's an extended 932 00:44:47,850 --> 00:44:45,790 realm which in your case is like hey you 933 00:44:50,130 --> 00:44:47,860 read mark Robert Monroe you did your own 934 00:44:51,660 --> 00:44:50,140 out-of-body experience you worked with 935 00:44:53,580 --> 00:44:51,670 all these clients it's like okay that's 936 00:44:55,890 --> 00:44:53,590 really an answered question I don't need 937 00:44:58,980 --> 00:44:55,900 to spend all my time just trying to 938 00:45:00,510 --> 00:44:58,990 debate with someone and then question to 939 00:45:02,580 --> 00:45:00,520 you kind of said well I don't really 940 00:45:04,980 --> 00:45:02,590 worry about if what other people in the 941 00:45:07,590 --> 00:45:04,990 community are kind of thinking or what 942 00:45:10,980 --> 00:45:07,600 academics are publishing what she did is 943 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:10,990 said how can I develop a protocol that 944 00:45:17,820 --> 00:45:15,010 might be efficacious for helping my 945 00:45:21,270 --> 00:45:17,830 clients move forward I think that is so 946 00:45:24,180 --> 00:45:21,280 awesome and so important and so unique 947 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:24,190 so I want to move into talking about 948 00:45:29,220 --> 00:45:27,130 your protocol because you have some very 949 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:29,230 specific things that you developed over 950 00:45:35,450 --> 00:45:32,290 time in terms of how to deal with people 951 00:45:38,130 --> 00:45:35,460 who are experiencing this trauma how to 952 00:45:40,710 --> 00:45:38,140 deal with these different entities 953 00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:40,720 however we want to understand them or 954 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:43,210 identify them and then in particular how 955 00:45:48,630 --> 00:45:46,450 to deal with the evil darkness thing 956 00:45:51,420 --> 00:45:48,640 which is the original reason I contacted 957 00:45:53,510 --> 00:45:51,430 you and you have a very very important 958 00:45:59,370 --> 00:45:53,520 distinction that you make between 959 00:46:01,680 --> 00:45:59,380 darkness and evil and that's what I want 960 00:46:05,100 --> 00:46:01,690 to get to next but I want to start out 961 00:46:07,260 --> 00:46:05,110 by talking about your protocol that you 962 00:46:10,170 --> 00:46:07,270 developed and why you developed it the 963 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:10,180 way that you did well I have to go back 964 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:13,410 again and emphasize the clinical nature 965 00:46:20,670 --> 00:46:16,210 because all of these start with the 966 00:46:24,090 --> 00:46:20,680 clients own story I look at my work and 967 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:24,100 with Jared is basically identifying 968 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:27,130 those things within or about a person 969 00:46:34,810 --> 00:46:32,050 that blocks the light from them and ego 970 00:46:37,240 --> 00:46:34,820 states sub personalities are often 971 00:46:41,860 --> 00:46:37,250 [\h__\h] the light because they carry 972 00:46:44,500 --> 00:46:41,870 pain or hurt or fear or distress if you 973 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:44,510 bring them light they can refuse it 974 00:46:51,060 --> 00:46:47,090 because they are part of the soul and 975 00:46:54,370 --> 00:46:51,070 therefore they have some level of choice 976 00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:54,380 well they often refuse this light love 977 00:46:59,890 --> 00:46:57,170 energy because it brings up their pain 978 00:47:01,690 --> 00:46:59,900 and if you're going to bring up their 979 00:47:04,630 --> 00:47:01,700 pain you're going to have to be able to 980 00:47:07,150 --> 00:47:04,640 offer them relief or else forget it 981 00:47:10,900 --> 00:47:07,160 don't bring up their pain just to have 982 00:47:13,660 --> 00:47:10,910 them be in pain so the protocol 983 00:47:16,720 --> 00:47:13,670 developed for the ego states is make the 984 00:47:19,180 --> 00:47:16,730 contact communicate with them make it 985 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:19,190 safe for them to receive this light love 986 00:47:26,410 --> 00:47:22,330 energy once they receive it as I said 987 00:47:29,590 --> 00:47:26,420 99% say whippy I love this I don't want 988 00:47:31,930 --> 00:47:29,600 to be without it and then they will move 989 00:47:35,490 --> 00:47:31,940 through the sharing and release of what 990 00:47:38,430 --> 00:47:35,500 happened to them for a spirit attachment 991 00:47:41,590 --> 00:47:38,440 outside entity it's a different protocol 992 00:47:44,950 --> 00:47:41,600 they don't belong with the person they 993 00:47:47,140 --> 00:47:44,960 need to leave and so again and working 994 00:47:51,220 --> 00:47:47,150 with Jared it was understanding how to 995 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:51,230 approach these spirits to gain their 996 00:47:59,290 --> 00:47:55,610 cooperation to leave my client and in 997 00:48:00,670 --> 00:47:59,300 the worst cases protocols designed to 998 00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:00,680 get to a point where they could be 999 00:48:08,230 --> 00:48:04,370 removed forcibly so that's a different 1000 00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:08,240 protocol a Tom can you help me and help 1001 00:48:13,750 --> 00:48:11,450 folks link those two because I think 1002 00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:13,760 those two are also related in some 1003 00:48:19,150 --> 00:48:15,530 important ways that you talked about in 1004 00:48:22,390 --> 00:48:19,160 the book in terms of trauma frustration 1005 00:48:26,980 --> 00:48:22,400 anxiety and this separation that we feel 1006 00:48:29,980 --> 00:48:26,990 can be an entry point for some of these 1007 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:29,990 other entities that come in and hang 1008 00:48:33,390 --> 00:48:32,210 around its disrupt people do you want to 1009 00:48:36,430 --> 00:48:33,400 speak to that at all 1010 00:48:39,310 --> 00:48:36,440 well there are there are a number of 1011 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:39,320 ways people might be vulnerable to 1012 00:48:46,660 --> 00:48:43,010 external intrusion or attachment or 1013 00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:46,670 interference but one of the primary ways 1014 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:48,290 is through 1015 00:48:55,420 --> 00:48:51,930 personalities because subpersonalities 1016 00:48:59,720 --> 00:48:55,430 carry pain and stay away from the light 1017 00:49:03,980 --> 00:48:59,730 these outside entities can connect with 1018 00:49:06,890 --> 00:49:03,990 them through their pain as I said guides 1019 00:49:09,470 --> 00:49:06,900 the Higher Self can communicate ages or 1020 00:49:12,470 --> 00:49:09,480 personalities well these spirits can 1021 00:49:14,720 --> 00:49:12,480 communicate to them also and if they 1022 00:49:18,620 --> 00:49:14,730 find a subpersonality that they can 1023 00:49:23,359 --> 00:49:18,630 threaten or intimidate or trick offer 1024 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:23,369 them something that is an entree into 1025 00:49:28,849 --> 00:49:25,770 this person's energy through the sub 1026 00:49:30,559 --> 00:49:28,859 personality my head's one I think I 1027 00:49:32,690 --> 00:49:30,569 wrote about in the book one young kid 1028 00:49:37,130 --> 00:49:32,700 maybe twelve years old was offered a 1029 00:49:40,460 --> 00:49:37,140 knife a pocketknife by a spirit he took 1030 00:49:43,819 --> 00:49:40,470 that knife and felt now he could protect 1031 00:49:46,190 --> 00:49:43,829 himself and he was kind of stronger now 1032 00:49:50,569 --> 00:49:46,200 with its knife but it turned out that 1033 00:49:53,599 --> 00:49:50,579 the knife was a device used to keep the 1034 00:49:56,539 --> 00:49:53,609 door open as long as that child kept the 1035 00:50:01,760 --> 00:49:56,549 knife he had connection to the external 1036 00:50:05,030 --> 00:50:01,770 one so we had convinced him to give up 1037 00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:05,040 the knife before we could break the 1038 00:50:09,829 --> 00:50:08,130 connection with that spirit because as 1039 00:50:11,809 --> 00:50:09,839 long as the kid kept the knife he was 1040 00:50:15,980 --> 00:50:11,819 given permission for the spirit to stay 1041 00:50:18,650 --> 00:50:15,990 connected Wow I mean we could go into a 1042 00:50:22,549 --> 00:50:18,660 full discussion on that for at least an 1043 00:50:26,569 --> 00:50:22,559 hour because it one it launches us right 1044 00:50:30,260 --> 00:50:26,579 into a Netflix streaming horror series 1045 00:50:32,630 --> 00:50:30,270 that we all hear about and that's okay 1046 00:50:35,569 --> 00:50:32,640 because it suggests that fiction is 1047 00:50:38,359 --> 00:50:35,579 imitating reality in ways that are even 1048 00:50:41,270 --> 00:50:38,369 more real than we dare to even think 1049 00:50:44,450 --> 00:50:41,280 about you have to read the book folks to 1050 00:50:47,319 --> 00:50:44,460 understand the process that dr. Zinser 1051 00:50:50,329 --> 00:50:47,329 went through here but it was kind of 1052 00:50:53,770 --> 00:50:50,339 painstakingly step by step as he talked 1053 00:50:56,660 --> 00:50:53,780 about meeting with a client taking notes 1054 00:50:59,569 --> 00:50:56,670 transcribing thinking about it deeply 1055 00:51:01,190 --> 00:50:59,579 then quote-unquote channeling this 1056 00:51:01,819 --> 00:51:01,200 spirit however you want to feel about 1057 00:51:04,459 --> 00:51:01,829 that 1058 00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:04,469 and then going back and doing the hard 1059 00:51:09,019 --> 00:51:07,410 work with the client one of the things 1060 00:51:12,199 --> 00:51:09,029 that really came through in this book 1061 00:51:14,539 --> 00:51:12,209 that made me feel more confident of what 1062 00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:14,549 you're talking about is you emphasized 1063 00:51:20,299 --> 00:51:16,650 over and over again that this is not a 1064 00:51:23,630 --> 00:51:20,309 quick fix 30 minute exorcism walk out 1065 00:51:26,630 --> 00:51:23,640 like a new person it's more about the 1066 00:51:29,209 --> 00:51:26,640 journey that you are on your soul 1067 00:51:32,569 --> 00:51:29,219 journey if you want to use that corny 1068 00:51:35,059 --> 00:51:32,579 phrase and it's it's a process and you 1069 00:51:36,529 --> 00:51:35,069 engage in it and you keep moving forward 1070 00:51:39,229 --> 00:51:36,539 and you realize decisions that you've 1071 00:51:42,709 --> 00:51:39,239 made and you remake decisions and and 1072 00:51:44,959 --> 00:51:42,719 talk about the work if you would that is 1073 00:51:48,079 --> 00:51:44,969 involved in this process both on your 1074 00:51:50,449 --> 00:51:48,089 part and on the part of your client I'd 1075 00:51:53,870 --> 00:51:50,459 have to say in terms of the healing 1076 00:51:55,099 --> 00:51:53,880 method itself it begins with basically 1077 00:51:57,410 --> 00:51:55,109 hearing from the client where their 1078 00:52:01,039 --> 00:51:57,420 difficulties are what the symptoms are 1079 00:52:04,069 --> 00:52:01,049 what the struggles are the first thing I 1080 00:52:06,620 --> 00:52:04,079 do and I learned this from Jared is to 1081 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:06,630 contact what I calls the protective part 1082 00:52:13,099 --> 00:52:09,930 of the mind the protective part of the 1083 00:52:16,370 --> 00:52:13,109 mind is a part of ourselves that is 1084 00:52:18,529 --> 00:52:16,380 conscious in the present we think of our 1085 00:52:22,130 --> 00:52:18,539 conscious self as able think forward and 1086 00:52:25,279 --> 00:52:22,140 backward past future the protective part 1087 00:52:28,539 --> 00:52:25,289 of ourselves is a consciousness but it's 1088 00:52:30,739 --> 00:52:28,549 consciousness is limited to the present 1089 00:52:32,449 --> 00:52:30,749 it's not thinking about what we're gonna 1090 00:52:36,589 --> 00:52:32,459 do tonight or what we did yesterday 1091 00:52:39,439 --> 00:52:36,599 it's focuses in the present that's where 1092 00:52:43,039 --> 00:52:39,449 it's consciousness is when I work with 1093 00:52:45,380 --> 00:52:43,049 somebody I learned to connect contact 1094 00:52:48,799 --> 00:52:45,390 the protective part first to get 1095 00:52:51,739 --> 00:52:48,809 permission to go forward and work with 1096 00:52:54,289 --> 00:52:51,749 trauma I found out that the protective 1097 00:52:57,680 --> 00:52:54,299 part was often the part blocking me 1098 00:52:59,689 --> 00:52:57,690 before I met Jared because the 1099 00:53:00,670 --> 00:52:59,699 protective part saw me as a bull in a 1100 00:53:04,459 --> 00:53:00,680 china shop 1101 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:04,469 bringing up trauma bringing up pain so 1102 00:53:09,140 --> 00:53:07,410 the protective part finally agrees then 1103 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:09,150 I will make contact with higher self 1104 00:53:13,069 --> 00:53:11,729 when I make contact with higher self 1105 00:53:15,900 --> 00:53:13,079 there's a number of things in the 1106 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:15,910 protocol to make sure that you 1107 00:53:22,430 --> 00:53:18,490 is with her yourself and that it is free 1108 00:53:24,870 --> 00:53:22,440 ourself is free to communicate when I'm 1109 00:53:25,260 --> 00:53:24,880 convinced to that when I'm assured of 1110 00:53:27,270 --> 00:53:25,270 that 1111 00:53:30,390 --> 00:53:27,280 then I will start with higher self 1112 00:53:33,390 --> 00:53:30,400 looking inside and start to review these 1113 00:53:36,150 --> 00:53:33,400 issues or problems or symptoms that the 1114 00:53:37,620 --> 00:53:36,160 client has talked about and it's through 1115 00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:37,630 Higher Self then that we will identify 1116 00:53:44,579 --> 00:53:41,410 and see if higher self can identify a 1117 00:53:47,030 --> 00:53:44,589 source so if a person let's say has 1118 00:53:49,980 --> 00:53:47,040 intense anxiety panic attacks 1119 00:53:53,099 --> 00:53:49,990 we will ask higher self to look inside 1120 00:53:57,000 --> 00:53:53,109 and see if it is able to locate the 1121 00:54:01,190 --> 00:53:57,010 source of the panic attacks you may find 1122 00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:01,200 by the time it's done six or seven 1123 00:54:06,210 --> 00:54:03,970 subpersonalities that are involved in an 1124 00:54:09,210 --> 00:54:06,220 anxiety pattern but from different 1125 00:54:12,030 --> 00:54:09,220 experiences you might find that there is 1126 00:54:14,550 --> 00:54:12,040 also a spirit present who kind of gets 1127 00:54:17,700 --> 00:54:14,560 all these sub personalities afraid and 1128 00:54:19,319 --> 00:54:17,710 upset you just don't know though this is 1129 00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:19,329 gonna freak people out a little bit 1130 00:54:23,910 --> 00:54:21,970 right I'm sure you go to conferences and 1131 00:54:26,339 --> 00:54:23,920 meet with colleagues and they think it 1132 00:54:28,859 --> 00:54:26,349 sounds flaky I'm sure well I'm afraid 1133 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:28,869 this is part of that issue if you cross 1134 00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:30,970 the line you're looking at a whole 1135 00:54:38,460 --> 00:54:34,210 different kind of reality and this goes 1136 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:38,470 back to so personalities also I came to 1137 00:54:43,050 --> 00:54:40,690 the point and work in my work with Jared 1138 00:54:46,230 --> 00:54:43,060 where I came to understand the sub 1139 00:54:49,859 --> 00:54:46,240 personalities at least in my mind I best 1140 00:54:52,829 --> 00:54:49,869 understand them as psyche beings they're 1141 00:54:55,530 --> 00:54:52,839 not just memories they're not just kind 1142 00:54:58,230 --> 00:54:55,540 of associated States they are actually 1143 00:55:00,210 --> 00:54:58,240 psychic beings they're able to 1144 00:55:02,819 --> 00:55:00,220 communicate they're able to receive 1145 00:55:05,849 --> 00:55:02,829 light you're able to make a choice when 1146 00:55:09,270 --> 00:55:05,859 you tell them they have a choice they do 1147 00:55:12,390 --> 00:55:09,280 have feelings they're beans and the 1148 00:55:15,210 --> 00:55:12,400 issue is helping this B be relieved of 1149 00:55:18,329 --> 00:55:15,220 whatever pain or distress it has so that 1150 00:55:20,910 --> 00:55:18,339 it can join and integrate with the 1151 00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:20,920 conscious self I know this challenges 1152 00:55:24,720 --> 00:55:23,170 people because I mean talking about the 1153 00:55:26,660 --> 00:55:24,730 protective part is a different 1154 00:55:28,260 --> 00:55:26,670 consciousness talking about 1155 00:55:29,220 --> 00:55:28,270 subpersonalities as different 1156 00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:29,230 consciousness 1157 00:55:33,210 --> 00:55:31,810 is of ourselves the higher-self is a 1158 00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:33,220 different consciousness of ourselves 1159 00:55:38,850 --> 00:55:35,290 you've all different levels of 1160 00:55:41,850 --> 00:55:38,860 consciousness and our modern psychology 1161 00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:41,860 wants a unified identity it is an 1162 00:55:48,570 --> 00:55:45,490 egocentric paradigm and when you get 1163 00:55:51,780 --> 00:55:48,580 past the ego they they just want to 1164 00:55:54,150 --> 00:55:51,790 reject that so with that let's talk 1165 00:55:55,140 --> 00:55:54,160 about something really controversial 1166 00:56:00,500 --> 00:55:55,150 because we haven't talked about anything 1167 00:56:05,250 --> 00:56:00,510 controversy let's talk about evil and 1168 00:56:09,750 --> 00:56:05,260 the darkness and this is a huge topic to 1169 00:56:13,140 --> 00:56:09,760 explore your book is very systematic you 1170 00:56:15,630 --> 00:56:13,150 methodically go through the protocol you 1171 00:56:18,210 --> 00:56:15,640 go through your experiences and how one 1172 00:56:21,420 --> 00:56:18,220 leads to another but one of the things 1173 00:56:25,100 --> 00:56:21,430 that comes up in your work is that there 1174 00:56:27,660 --> 00:56:25,110 are some spirit attachments that are 1175 00:56:30,450 --> 00:56:27,670 basically based with confusion 1176 00:56:34,350 --> 00:56:30,460 the Spirit is attached and is harassing 1177 00:56:36,240 --> 00:56:34,360 this person but it isn't benevolent in 1178 00:56:38,130 --> 00:56:36,250 the way that like you're saying if you 1179 00:56:39,810 --> 00:56:38,140 were able to connect with that spirit 1180 00:56:41,790 --> 00:56:39,820 and communicate with that spirit and 1181 00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:41,800 offer them a better option which is to 1182 00:56:46,890 --> 00:56:44,530 go for the the light which is always 1183 00:56:49,260 --> 00:56:46,900 shining and and willing to accept that 1184 00:56:51,570 --> 00:56:49,270 spirit they go wow that really is better 1185 00:56:54,720 --> 00:56:51,580 I'm sorry I was confused and stuck here 1186 00:56:58,440 --> 00:56:54,730 I'm ready to move on but then you 1187 00:57:01,020 --> 00:56:58,450 experienced some that were not you say 1188 00:57:02,730 --> 00:57:01,030 go to the light and they don't know I'm 1189 00:57:03,890 --> 00:57:02,740 like I know the lights there I'm not 1190 00:57:07,500 --> 00:57:03,900 going there 1191 00:57:10,380 --> 00:57:07,510 we're distort about darkness really the 1192 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:10,390 reason I sent you the email I did 1193 00:57:16,770 --> 00:57:13,210 originally was about the distinction 1194 00:57:19,950 --> 00:57:16,780 between darkness and evil and we all 1195 00:57:22,650 --> 00:57:19,960 have to deal with darkness and Jared's 1196 00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:22,660 information to me was that this physical 1197 00:57:28,500 --> 00:57:26,530 reality created by the light by the 1198 00:57:30,780 --> 00:57:28,510 Creator whatever you want to call it 1199 00:57:33,180 --> 00:57:30,790 made a level playing field between the 1200 00:57:36,890 --> 00:57:33,190 light in the dark and that level playing 1201 00:57:40,340 --> 00:57:36,900 field is what gives souls free choice 1202 00:57:42,180 --> 00:57:40,350 your understanding of evil though is 1203 00:57:45,510 --> 00:57:42,190 truly you 1204 00:57:47,220 --> 00:57:45,520 and for me was truly revolutionary in 1205 00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:47,230 terms of understanding some of the 1206 00:57:54,390 --> 00:57:50,530 subtle ways that evil comes into play 1207 00:57:56,789 --> 00:57:54,400 and interacts with that darkness going 1208 00:57:58,859 --> 00:57:56,799 from darkness to these spirits who have 1209 00:58:02,640 --> 00:57:58,869 entered darkness and operate from 1210 00:58:05,819 --> 00:58:02,650 darkness and have become evil in the 1211 00:58:10,049 --> 00:58:05,829 sense that it is their intention to 1212 00:58:12,900 --> 00:58:10,059 violate Souls and they can violate souls 1213 00:58:16,950 --> 00:58:12,910 here in the physical who have incarnated 1214 00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:16,960 and as Jared pointed out every soul in 1215 00:58:23,609 --> 00:58:20,770 darkness is a soul of light that light 1216 00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:23,619 may have become very covered over very 1217 00:58:29,670 --> 00:58:27,690 buried but every soul is a soul of light 1218 00:58:31,380 --> 00:58:29,680 let's really try and think of a case 1219 00:58:34,500 --> 00:58:31,390 because like when you talk about the 1220 00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:34,510 case of the boy with the knife the 12 1221 00:58:39,390 --> 00:58:37,450 year old boy with the knife we get that 1222 00:58:41,700 --> 00:58:39,400 we like that's terrible 1223 00:58:44,010 --> 00:58:41,710 why would you do that why would you 1224 00:58:45,809 --> 00:58:44,020 create this false contract with someone 1225 00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:45,819 which we've heard over and over again 1226 00:58:51,059 --> 00:58:48,010 people are convinced that they've made 1227 00:58:53,130 --> 00:58:51,069 some deal with Satan which again 1228 00:58:55,620 --> 00:58:53,140 historically there is no Satan but it's 1229 00:58:58,859 --> 00:58:55,630 free on some level we have made some 1230 00:59:00,180 --> 00:58:58,869 deal I've sold my soul and what Jared 1231 00:59:02,039 --> 00:59:00,190 tells us very importantly and it's a 1232 00:59:04,529 --> 00:59:02,049 very important part he says now there is 1233 00:59:06,930 --> 00:59:04,539 no such you can't sell your soul it's 1234 00:59:09,150 --> 00:59:06,940 just another form of deception that a 1235 00:59:11,789 --> 00:59:09,160 being that is attracted to the darkness 1236 00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:11,799 likes deception likes to screw with 1237 00:59:16,559 --> 00:59:12,250 people 1238 00:59:18,089 --> 00:59:16,569 create these ideas that you have this 1239 00:59:20,549 --> 00:59:18,099 obligation but you don't have this 1240 00:59:23,250 --> 00:59:20,559 obligation it's a very important point 1241 00:59:26,490 --> 00:59:23,260 from your work so speak to that but then 1242 00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:26,500 also speak more broadly to why why there 1243 00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:29,650 is this connection to the darkness well 1244 00:59:35,370 --> 00:59:33,010 first of all as souls of light even when 1245 00:59:39,089 --> 00:59:35,380 they're in darkness these souls need 1246 00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:39,099 light they need the light and they do 1247 00:59:43,079 --> 00:59:41,410 not want to go to the spirit realm of 1248 00:59:45,599 --> 00:59:43,089 light to receive it for a number of 1249 00:59:46,829 --> 00:59:45,609 different reasons explain some of those 1250 00:59:49,109 --> 00:59:46,839 reasons because I think that'll help 1251 00:59:52,529 --> 00:59:49,119 people lock in what you're talking about 1252 00:59:54,660 --> 00:59:52,539 well there are souls that have died with 1253 00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:54,670 tremendous feelings of guilt whether 1254 00:59:58,380 --> 00:59:55,810 it's because they've murdered 1255 01:00:01,890 --> 00:59:58,390 people where they've laid waste to 1256 01:00:04,620 --> 01:00:01,900 people betrayed loved ones there's 1257 01:00:08,460 --> 01:00:04,630 different reasons like that they were in 1258 01:00:12,900 --> 01:00:08,470 war and became enraged and violent then 1259 01:00:16,380 --> 01:00:12,910 when they died in that state they may be 1260 01:00:19,260 --> 01:00:16,390 afraid of being judged afraid of being 1261 01:00:22,650 --> 01:00:19,270 condemned by this God they believed in 1262 01:00:25,230 --> 01:00:22,660 they may be angry at this God for for 1263 01:00:27,900 --> 01:00:25,240 what God allowed to happen so there's 1264 01:00:30,180 --> 01:00:27,910 something that originally separates them 1265 01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:30,190 from the light their anger their hurt 1266 01:00:36,270 --> 01:00:32,890 their confusion but the issue here is 1267 01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:36,280 that there are souls in in a hierarchy 1268 01:00:41,700 --> 01:00:39,370 of darkness they've been in darkness a 1269 01:00:42,690 --> 01:00:41,710 long time and they've learned to operate 1270 01:00:45,870 --> 01:00:42,700 that way 1271 01:00:48,180 --> 01:00:45,880 and in that operation they gather to 1272 01:00:49,740 --> 01:00:48,190 themselves these souls that have gotten 1273 01:00:52,560 --> 01:00:49,750 into the dark and kind of confused 1274 01:00:55,530 --> 01:00:52,570 they're kind of floating around or not 1275 01:00:58,020 --> 01:00:55,540 sure what's going on these dark souls 1276 01:01:00,870 --> 01:00:58,030 that no more will in one way or another 1277 01:01:03,330 --> 01:01:00,880 attempt to untangle them and this is 1278 01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:03,340 where what we would call the higher 1279 01:01:08,580 --> 01:01:04,810 level Dark One's 1280 01:01:12,150 --> 01:01:08,590 are able to almost it is like a mafia 1281 01:01:16,290 --> 01:01:12,160 the Mafia is a very very good analogy as 1282 01:01:16,920 --> 01:01:16,300 below so above I mean yeah yeah as above 1283 01:01:20,820 --> 01:01:16,930 so below 1284 01:01:23,430 --> 01:01:20,830 but as below so above I just I struggle 1285 01:01:25,020 --> 01:01:23,440 with people who are like in the occult 1286 01:01:26,670 --> 01:01:25,030 communities or esoteric community and 1287 01:01:30,420 --> 01:01:26,680 have a problem with this or want to 1288 01:01:33,900 --> 01:01:30,430 explain it away or minimize it it's like 1289 01:01:36,350 --> 01:01:33,910 are you kidding just look on look on our 1290 01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:36,360 planet look in the worst parts of our 1291 01:01:42,030 --> 01:01:39,010 existence as it is we see the same thing 1292 01:01:44,340 --> 01:01:42,040 we see hierarchies of evil we see people 1293 01:01:47,730 --> 01:01:44,350 to do horrible things and that grow 1294 01:01:50,490 --> 01:01:47,740 comfortable with that so that they don't 1295 01:01:54,450 --> 01:01:50,500 feel comfortable being normal and 1296 01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:54,460 ordinary so to me you're incredible 1297 01:01:58,800 --> 01:01:57,010 exploration just was confirming that 1298 01:02:00,780 --> 01:01:58,810 yeah that's what I see here that makes 1299 01:02:03,960 --> 01:02:00,790 total sense that that would be what's 1300 01:02:06,150 --> 01:02:03,970 going on in these extended realms well I 1301 01:02:08,780 --> 01:02:06,160 would say in working with clients where 1302 01:02:12,230 --> 01:02:08,790 these kind of dark spirits were present 1303 01:02:14,690 --> 01:02:12,240 it wasn't trying to remove them or get 1304 01:02:18,290 --> 01:02:14,700 their cooperation to leave that we found 1305 01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:18,300 that as they got closer to maybe 1306 01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:20,490 agreeing to take delight they were 1307 01:02:24,770 --> 01:02:22,530 starting to be threatened and that's 1308 01:02:27,650 --> 01:02:24,780 when I would ask them are you being 1309 01:02:29,390 --> 01:02:27,660 threatened I would get a yes and what 1310 01:02:32,390 --> 01:02:29,400 turns out is they're being threatened by 1311 01:02:37,370 --> 01:02:32,400 those up above who want them to stay in 1312 01:02:39,710 --> 01:02:37,380 line or Ferguson oh yeah yeah and so 1313 01:02:42,860 --> 01:02:39,720 they're threatening them to keep them in 1314 01:02:44,870 --> 01:02:42,870 line and I have to work with those 1315 01:02:47,300 --> 01:02:44,880 Spears to let them know that that's all 1316 01:02:47,900 --> 01:02:47,310 a ruse they don't have the power to keep 1317 01:02:50,330 --> 01:02:47,910 them in line 1318 01:02:51,980 --> 01:02:50,340 if these ones I'm working with want to 1319 01:02:54,260 --> 01:02:51,990 go to the light they have every power 1320 01:02:57,650 --> 01:02:54,270 and right to do that so you're kind of 1321 01:03:00,650 --> 01:02:57,660 breaking breaking the chain could you 1322 01:03:04,220 --> 01:03:00,660 think of a case when when that came came 1323 01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:04,230 about I think we want to know what it 1324 01:03:09,020 --> 01:03:06,330 was like that that process of 1325 01:03:11,990 --> 01:03:09,030 encountering someone was nasty 1326 01:03:13,790 --> 01:03:12,000 monovalent was completely destroying 1327 01:03:15,980 --> 01:03:13,800 someone's life or trying to destroy 1328 01:03:19,490 --> 01:03:15,990 someone's life but then you were able to 1329 01:03:22,100 --> 01:03:19,500 move through the process of moving them 1330 01:03:24,770 --> 01:03:22,110 to the light and maybe even in ways that 1331 01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:24,780 that wasn't easy because again your 1332 01:03:27,770 --> 01:03:26,370 protocol is the first safe do you see 1333 01:03:29,450 --> 01:03:27,780 the light and then the next part of your 1334 01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:29,460 protocol is say well you can't see the 1335 01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:31,290 light okay do you see the light within 1336 01:03:35,690 --> 01:03:33,450 you and that's sometimes that worked and 1337 01:03:38,420 --> 01:03:35,700 then sometimes you bring spirit guides 1338 01:03:40,130 --> 01:03:38,430 or loved ones and say here would you be 1339 01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:40,140 willing to talk to one of your loved 1340 01:03:43,190 --> 01:03:41,370 ones and they'll help you see the light 1341 01:03:45,350 --> 01:03:43,200 and then you keep going down the 1342 01:03:48,020 --> 01:03:45,360 protocol which is just get so awesome 1343 01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:48,030 give us a case that kind of brings that 1344 01:03:55,340 --> 01:03:51,090 to life well I mean the clearest 1345 01:04:00,200 --> 01:03:55,350 examples for me Alex have been my work 1346 01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:00,210 with cult victims call victims who have 1347 01:04:08,830 --> 01:04:04,050 been intentionally and in an organized 1348 01:04:13,220 --> 01:04:08,840 way abused for specific purposes and 1349 01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:13,230 that abused is the intentional creation 1350 01:04:18,570 --> 01:04:16,410 of a dissociative personality when I 1351 01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:18,580 worked with cult victims 1352 01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:20,770 these kind of person many of these 1353 01:04:26,609 --> 01:04:23,650 personalities were created and many of 1354 01:04:29,990 --> 01:04:26,619 these personalities were entangled with 1355 01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:30,000 dark spirits and I could basically 1356 01:04:37,710 --> 01:04:34,210 understand exactly they cult active to 1357 01:04:39,900 --> 01:04:37,720 damage these children to create trauma 1358 01:04:43,230 --> 01:04:39,910 for these children to dissociate them 1359 01:04:46,260 --> 01:04:43,240 create a fragment so that these spirits 1360 01:04:49,290 --> 01:04:46,270 these dark spirits would have an open 1361 01:04:51,870 --> 01:04:49,300 door into these children and they're so 1362 01:04:55,410 --> 01:04:51,880 so you're saying what I've heard over 1363 01:04:59,550 --> 01:04:55,420 and over again both on this show and in 1364 01:05:02,730 --> 01:04:59,560 reading that some people in these cult 1365 01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:02,740 groups and in these satanic cult groups 1366 01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:04,450 where they label themselves as satanic 1367 01:05:09,150 --> 01:05:06,730 again whatever that means because it's 1368 01:05:11,070 --> 01:05:09,160 kind of a tricky word historically but 1369 01:05:14,180 --> 01:05:11,080 they've actually have a systematic way 1370 01:05:16,740 --> 01:05:14,190 where they say gee if we can create this 1371 01:05:21,630 --> 01:05:16,750 disassociation that is going to serve 1372 01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:21,640 our goals at this extended consciousness 1373 01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:23,290 level now I had never made that 1374 01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:26,410 connection I had heard about it but I 1375 01:05:30,870 --> 01:05:28,810 had never made that connection until I 1376 01:05:32,970 --> 01:05:30,880 read your book and you're offering 1377 01:05:34,730 --> 01:05:32,980 confirmation about that that there would 1378 01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:34,740 be a reason for them to do that 1379 01:05:40,410 --> 01:05:38,530 absolutely and some of them do know 1380 01:05:43,470 --> 01:05:40,420 consciously what they're doing and why 1381 01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:43,480 they're doing it and they're kind of 1382 01:05:48,780 --> 01:05:46,450 allegiance to these Dark Souls there are 1383 01:05:51,420 --> 01:05:48,790 others who don't know they carry out 1384 01:05:54,359 --> 01:05:51,430 this kind of dissociative trauma for the 1385 01:05:56,250 --> 01:05:54,369 child in the belief Ren and for the 1386 01:05:58,920 --> 01:05:56,260 purpose of bringing that child under 1387 01:06:02,480 --> 01:05:58,930 their control so that in the future 1388 01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:02,490 these abusers can control a 1389 01:06:09,720 --> 01:06:06,930 subpersonality and and they have these 1390 01:06:13,200 --> 01:06:09,730 techniques and methods developed to 1391 01:06:15,359 --> 01:06:13,210 control people in that way through their 1392 01:06:18,180 --> 01:06:15,369 sub personalities they're not 1393 01:06:20,849 --> 01:06:18,190 necessarily aware of the other level 1394 01:06:22,950 --> 01:06:20,859 where there are Dark Souls very involved 1395 01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:22,960 but some people are some of these 1396 01:06:28,950 --> 01:06:27,010 abusers are aware of that level what is 1397 01:06:30,820 --> 01:06:28,960 the process been like in terms of 1398 01:06:32,650 --> 01:06:30,830 working with these people 1399 01:06:33,850 --> 01:06:32,660 and again I really appreciate that you 1400 01:06:36,190 --> 01:06:33,860 can look at this from a broader 1401 01:06:38,260 --> 01:06:36,200 perspective everyone is of the light 1402 01:06:41,770 --> 01:06:38,270 everyone has the ability to return to 1403 01:06:43,420 --> 01:06:41,780 the light people can get off the path we 1404 01:06:45,550 --> 01:06:43,430 have the whole past life thing to work 1405 01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:45,560 into sometimes children are entering 1406 01:06:50,170 --> 01:06:48,410 into this because of some stuff they're 1407 01:06:51,940 --> 01:06:50,180 bringing from the past life again 1408 01:06:54,850 --> 01:06:51,950 complicating things can't ask a 1409 01:06:57,550 --> 01:06:54,860 straightforward simple question but I'll 1410 01:07:00,070 --> 01:06:57,560 go back to that first question then how 1411 01:07:02,470 --> 01:07:00,080 effective have you been able to be in 1412 01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:02,480 terms of helping people overcome this 1413 01:07:09,310 --> 01:07:06,530 kind of really severe spiritual 1414 01:07:12,220 --> 01:07:09,320 interference spiritual disruption I 1415 01:07:15,850 --> 01:07:12,230 would say it's been very successful 1416 01:07:18,430 --> 01:07:15,860 it is very methodical and it's been very 1417 01:07:20,890 --> 01:07:18,440 successful because basically what you're 1418 01:07:25,210 --> 01:07:20,900 doing is working the higher self to find 1419 01:07:28,870 --> 01:07:25,220 any obstructions or interference of the 1420 01:07:32,140 --> 01:07:28,880 light that's the process have you had 1421 01:07:35,350 --> 01:07:32,150 clients in particular cult victims who 1422 01:07:37,870 --> 01:07:35,360 you've been able to effectively treat 1423 01:07:40,500 --> 01:07:37,880 and have told you gee I've been trying 1424 01:07:43,510 --> 01:07:40,510 to work with this with therapists that 1425 01:07:45,670 --> 01:07:43,520 aren't looking at this from a deeper 1426 01:07:48,250 --> 01:07:45,680 extended consciousness realm and I 1427 01:07:51,010 --> 01:07:48,260 haven't had any any luck is is that your 1428 01:07:55,030 --> 01:07:51,020 your understanding or what do you think 1429 01:07:57,100 --> 01:07:55,040 about that yes I feel like again 1430 01:08:00,430 --> 01:07:57,110 learning from Daron and going through 1431 01:08:03,730 --> 01:08:00,440 this which Aaron was able to learn the 1432 01:08:07,060 --> 01:08:03,740 the kind of ins and outs of dealing with 1433 01:08:10,150 --> 01:08:07,070 this kind of trauma and entanglement so 1434 01:08:13,030 --> 01:08:10,160 yes I believe been successful helping 1435 01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:13,040 these cult victims basically break the 1436 01:08:18,730 --> 01:08:16,010 ties break the chains and connections to 1437 01:08:21,220 --> 01:08:18,740 these Dark Souls one of the things you 1438 01:08:24,040 --> 01:08:21,230 have to say about the darkness that I 1439 01:08:27,220 --> 01:08:24,050 think is very important is that it is 1440 01:08:29,110 --> 01:08:27,230 there for a reason it is a part of our 1441 01:08:31,410 --> 01:08:29,120 growth and the way you describe it in 1442 01:08:33,280 --> 01:08:31,420 the book is that all your clients 1443 01:08:36,280 --> 01:08:33,290 regardless of the level of trauma 1444 01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:36,290 they've experienced are moving into and 1445 01:08:42,329 --> 01:08:39,770 out of the darkness and the trick I 1446 01:08:45,479 --> 01:08:42,339 guess is to maybe not get too 1447 01:08:48,089 --> 01:08:45,489 drawn into it or what would you say with 1448 01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:48,099 regard I would and this is again one of 1449 01:08:53,189 --> 01:08:49,810 these things about the distinction 1450 01:08:57,180 --> 01:08:53,199 between darkness and evil souls that are 1451 01:09:00,450 --> 01:08:57,190 evil do intend to violate us the 1452 01:09:03,689 --> 01:09:00,460 darkness itself would like to destroy 1453 01:09:07,109 --> 01:09:03,699 the light it would like to do that but 1454 01:09:10,399 --> 01:09:07,119 the darkness has to in a sense of Bay's 1455 01:09:14,669 --> 01:09:10,409 of boundaries and it will not violate 1456 01:09:18,149 --> 01:09:14,679 those boundaries or else the light will 1457 01:09:21,599 --> 01:09:18,159 have recourse so the darkness in some 1458 01:09:24,689 --> 01:09:21,609 sense it might want to seduce you or 1459 01:09:26,700 --> 01:09:24,699 convince you or draw you in or or you 1460 01:09:30,180 --> 01:09:26,710 may want to make a deal with darkness 1461 01:09:32,490 --> 01:09:30,190 which will cost you but it won't come in 1462 01:09:35,879 --> 01:09:32,500 and violate because of the tries to 1463 01:09:39,599 --> 01:09:35,889 violate the light which is also a soul 1464 01:09:44,879 --> 01:09:39,609 it will have repercussions and and it is 1465 01:09:46,890 --> 01:09:44,889 aware of that unlike souls who do intend 1466 01:09:49,620 --> 01:09:46,900 to violate they are trying to take 1467 01:09:53,700 --> 01:09:49,630 another and take other souls energies 1468 01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:53,710 and harness other Souls and use them so 1469 01:09:59,790 --> 01:09:56,050 the darkness won't do that it will 1470 01:10:01,800 --> 01:09:59,800 shelter the evil ones and it will draw 1471 01:10:04,169 --> 01:10:01,810 those evil one and this is probably part 1472 01:10:07,020 --> 01:10:04,179 of the problem it will draw all those 1473 01:10:10,620 --> 01:10:07,030 evil ones in darker deeper and deeper 1474 01:10:13,260 --> 01:10:10,630 until those dark ones really have no 1475 01:10:16,290 --> 01:10:13,270 sense of themselves as a light as a soul 1476 01:10:18,959 --> 01:10:16,300 they forgotten who they are the darkness 1477 01:10:22,050 --> 01:10:18,969 is more than happy to do that but the 1478 01:10:25,520 --> 01:10:22,060 darkness is not an angry violent kind of 1479 01:10:29,220 --> 01:10:25,530 force it's just it just is what it is 1480 01:10:31,800 --> 01:10:29,230 here's what Jared had to say from your 1481 01:10:35,070 --> 01:10:31,810 book so this is communicated to you 1482 01:10:36,629 --> 01:10:35,080 about the dark spot in all of us and 1483 01:10:38,700 --> 01:10:36,639 he's talking about suicide he said 1484 01:10:41,700 --> 01:10:38,710 people who are prone to suicide or 1485 01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:41,710 contemplating suicide are usually locked 1486 01:10:47,250 --> 01:10:44,650 into that dark side they're not moving 1487 01:10:49,350 --> 01:10:47,260 well enough towards the light they have 1488 01:10:51,540 --> 01:10:49,360 stopped so much in that dark place that 1489 01:10:54,390 --> 01:10:51,550 they can't get out it doesn't mean 1490 01:10:55,340 --> 01:10:54,400 they're evil it doesn't mean that they 1491 01:10:58,250 --> 01:10:55,350 are bad 1492 01:11:01,580 --> 01:10:58,260 it oftentimes means they have abandoned 1493 01:11:04,460 --> 01:11:01,590 hope and they'd let go of the idea that 1494 01:11:08,300 --> 01:11:04,470 they are purposeful and that they have 1495 01:11:12,380 --> 01:11:08,310 meaning do you want to speak to that at 1496 01:11:14,660 --> 01:11:12,390 all I think when we look today just to 1497 01:11:18,230 --> 01:11:14,670 somebody who has suffered a long-term 1498 01:11:20,260 --> 01:11:18,240 depression when you when you live in 1499 01:11:23,450 --> 01:11:20,270 depression you're living in darkness and 1500 01:11:28,370 --> 01:11:23,460 Jared defined darkness is the place that 1501 01:11:29,930 --> 01:11:28,380 lacks light love and knowledge he's 1502 01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:29,940 sitting in the darkness there is no 1503 01:11:35,540 --> 01:11:32,610 trust these dark spirits don't trust 1504 01:11:40,070 --> 01:11:35,550 each other it's it's a network based on 1505 01:11:41,780 --> 01:11:40,080 power so living in depression can be 1506 01:11:44,210 --> 01:11:41,790 living in darkness it's not that you're 1507 01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:44,220 bad and evil but you've lacked that 1508 01:11:49,220 --> 01:11:46,370 feeling of love maybe or that lack of 1509 01:11:52,550 --> 01:11:49,230 connection or that lack of connection to 1510 01:11:55,220 --> 01:11:52,560 a higher power or you've become you've 1511 01:11:57,590 --> 01:11:55,230 lost a hope about things you take a 1512 01:12:00,500 --> 01:11:57,600 young kid has grown up in a family that 1513 01:12:03,620 --> 01:12:00,510 we're one of the parents where both are 1514 01:12:05,450 --> 01:12:03,630 abusive and that child everyday has to 1515 01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:05,460 be afraid whether it's going to come out 1516 01:12:11,630 --> 01:12:08,370 of that's living that's living in a dark 1517 01:12:13,700 --> 01:12:11,640 place so darkness is that place where 1518 01:12:17,660 --> 01:12:13,710 you don't have love and light and 1519 01:12:20,170 --> 01:12:17,670 knowledge living in ignorance living in 1520 01:12:24,680 --> 01:12:20,180 ignorance that there's a darkness there 1521 01:12:27,320 --> 01:12:24,690 when we learn we're gaining light so 1522 01:12:30,500 --> 01:12:27,330 darkness understood is the place that 1523 01:12:32,300 --> 01:12:30,510 lacks light love and knowledge we know 1524 01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:32,310 there are a lot of people who live in 1525 01:12:38,570 --> 01:12:35,850 such a place for different reasons but a 1526 01:12:41,240 --> 01:12:38,580 lot of it is trauma the result of trauma 1527 01:12:44,300 --> 01:12:41,250 Thomas we talked about earlier before we 1528 01:12:47,560 --> 01:12:44,310 first started recording you've retired 1529 01:12:50,090 --> 01:12:47,570 from clinical practice you obviously put 1530 01:12:53,720 --> 01:12:50,100 everything you had into it you worked 1531 01:12:55,490 --> 01:12:53,730 really hard at it you were very it just 1532 01:12:57,320 --> 01:12:55,500 sounds like a great therapist for your 1533 01:12:59,630 --> 01:12:57,330 clients doing everything you can to help 1534 01:13:03,230 --> 01:12:59,640 them but that can be draining I don't 1535 01:13:05,270 --> 01:13:03,240 know I know it's there's a high dropout 1536 01:13:07,340 --> 01:13:05,280 rate and I think you went longer than a 1537 01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:07,350 lot of people can in terms of helping 1538 01:13:10,310 --> 01:13:08,010 that many 1539 01:13:13,339 --> 01:13:10,320 people what do you want to do in the 1540 01:13:16,879 --> 01:13:13,349 future with what you've learned well for 1541 01:13:19,580 --> 01:13:16,889 me the main issue in learning all of 1542 01:13:22,069 --> 01:13:19,590 this and developing this method is that 1543 01:13:25,879 --> 01:13:22,079 it's the clinical method and so I would 1544 01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:25,889 like to see it able to be practiced but 1545 01:13:32,089 --> 01:13:29,250 at the same time it is complex it does 1546 01:13:34,970 --> 01:13:32,099 go very very deep depending on where the 1547 01:13:38,359 --> 01:13:34,980 client is but I would like to do some 1548 01:13:42,470 --> 01:13:38,369 training and it would be in a kind of an 1549 01:13:46,069 --> 01:13:42,480 in-depth training I'd also probably like 1550 01:13:49,189 --> 01:13:46,079 to do more speaking I do believe this 1551 01:13:51,830 --> 01:13:49,199 issue of accepting the spiritual 1552 01:13:55,160 --> 01:13:51,840 dimension is of the utmost importance 1553 01:13:56,830 --> 01:13:55,170 today Tom one final question and it may 1554 01:13:58,790 --> 01:13:56,840 take a little while to sort this out I 1555 01:14:00,859 --> 01:13:58,800 hadn't really thought of it but I think 1556 01:14:03,819 --> 01:14:00,869 it's really important to my project to 1557 01:14:06,830 --> 01:14:03,829 the skeptical kind of thing and that's 1558 01:14:10,339 --> 01:14:06,840 where do you see clinical psychology 1559 01:14:13,160 --> 01:14:10,349 fitting into this transformation that 1560 01:14:15,140 --> 01:14:13,170 people might go through in connecting 1561 01:14:16,970 --> 01:14:15,150 with extended consciousness because when 1562 01:14:21,049 --> 01:14:16,980 we step back we say well this has always 1563 01:14:23,629 --> 01:14:21,059 been the domain of churches very cultish 1564 01:14:24,770 --> 01:14:23,639 churches mainly what we experienced that 1565 01:14:26,930 --> 01:14:24,780 are more interested in controlling 1566 01:14:29,029 --> 01:14:26,940 people and manipulating people than 1567 01:14:31,580 --> 01:14:29,039 doing much else but it's always been in 1568 01:14:34,399 --> 01:14:31,590 their domain or now we have a kind of a 1569 01:14:35,270 --> 01:14:34,409 shamanistic kind of thing or the magic 1570 01:14:36,859 --> 01:14:35,280 and occult realm 1571 01:14:40,009 --> 01:14:36,869 they'll tell you how to deal with these 1572 01:14:43,060 --> 01:14:40,019 extended consciousness realms do you 1573 01:14:47,029 --> 01:14:43,070 think there's something unique that 1574 01:14:50,959 --> 01:14:47,039 clinical psychology can bring to that my 1575 01:14:53,029 --> 01:14:50,969 feeling is clinical psychology is in the 1576 01:14:55,580 --> 01:14:53,039 same dilemma we talked about with others 1577 01:15:00,140 --> 01:14:55,590 and that is they're facing this line 1578 01:15:02,680 --> 01:15:00,150 also and crossing this fly as I said 1579 01:15:06,080 --> 01:15:02,690 earlier we have a very egocentric 1580 01:15:08,359 --> 01:15:06,090 psychology and psychiatry and we're 1581 01:15:11,149 --> 01:15:08,369 talking about something that transcends 1582 01:15:14,839 --> 01:15:11,159 the ego and when you start threatening 1583 01:15:18,529 --> 01:15:14,849 the ego like that with the loss of power 1584 01:15:20,570 --> 01:15:18,539 that it's not the end all and be all the 1585 01:15:23,120 --> 01:15:20,580 ego gets pretty threatened 1586 01:15:25,280 --> 01:15:23,130 so the soul centered approach is saying 1587 01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:25,290 to the ego you've got a place you've got 1588 01:15:31,010 --> 01:15:27,570 a very important place in this 1589 01:15:36,350 --> 01:15:31,020 incarnation but soul from the soul level 1590 01:15:39,770 --> 01:15:36,360 you you are playing a part and when we 1591 01:15:42,620 --> 01:15:39,780 cross over if I were to say one of the 1592 01:15:45,550 --> 01:15:42,630 most important things today is for 1593 01:15:49,730 --> 01:15:45,560 people to understand there is no death 1594 01:15:52,910 --> 01:15:49,740 that when the body dies we basically 1595 01:15:58,010 --> 01:15:52,920 walk through a door into another level 1596 01:16:00,940 --> 01:15:58,020 of consciousness now the

accidental 1641 01:18:07,570 --> 01:18:04,250 your email coming at the time that it 1642 01:18:10,780 --> 01:18:07,580 does publishing a book and the title of 1643 01:18:13,780 --> 01:18:10,790 the book is why evil matters how science 1644 01:18:16,870 --> 01:18:13,790 and religion fumbled a big one so this 1645 01:18:19,240 --> 01:18:16,880 has gone right in the book well I do 1646 01:18:23,340 --> 01:18:19,250 think that is probably the bottom-line 1647 01:18:27,070 --> 01:18:23,350 issue is as Souls we have the choice and 1648 01:18:29,710 --> 01:18:27,080 evil does not run our life evil does not 1649 01:18:32,410 --> 01:18:29,720 have power over us evil cannot just 1650 01:18:36,400 --> 01:18:32,420 waltz into our life without an access 1651 01:18:40,950 --> 01:18:36,410 and so as souls we do have that power to 1652 01:18:43,210 --> 01:18:40,960 deal with evil to stop it to refuse it 1653 01:18:45,190 --> 01:18:43,220 it's one of the reasons I said that 1654 01:18:47,770 --> 01:18:45,200 distinction between darkness and evil is 1655 01:18:49,690 --> 01:18:47,780 so important because people don't make 1656 01:18:52,870 --> 01:18:49,700 the distinction and then it gets all 1657 01:18:54,370 --> 01:18:52,880 confused I love that and I love in the 1658 01:18:58,270 --> 01:18:54,380 way in the book it really comes across 1659 01:19:00,790 --> 01:18:58,280 as not a kind of macho aggressive way of 1660 01:19:02,800 --> 01:19:00,800 saying that because what I hear you say 1661 01:19:06,130 --> 01:19:02,810 that I think is so central and so 1662 01:19:09,220 --> 01:19:06,140 important is ok folks here's the basic 1663 01:19:12,040 --> 01:19:09,230 structure it's light we're all part of 1664 01:19:17,230 --> 01:19:12,050 the divine spark it's in within all of 1665 01:19:20,830 --> 01:19:17,240 us so our natural state is to have likes 1666 01:19:23,470 --> 01:19:20,840 and dislikes that inadvertently not our 1667 01:19:25,540 --> 01:19:23,480 fault but it happens we block that light 1668 01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:25,550 in one way or another and sometimes we 1669 01:19:29,350 --> 01:19:28,010 connect with those blockages more than 1670 01:19:32,260 --> 01:19:29,360 we connect with the light and it all 1671 01:19:34,810 --> 01:19:32,270 becomes a confused state but it's an 1672 01:19:37,270 --> 01:19:34,820 addition by subtraction thing removing 1673 01:19:41,140 --> 01:19:37,280 the blockages releases the light and 1674 01:19:42,250 --> 01:19:41,150 that's all we really want so what I hear 1675 01:19:45,570 --> 01:19:42,260 you saying then 1676 01:19:51,790 --> 01:19:45,580 is that now we can begin talking about 1677 01:19:54,190 --> 01:19:51,800 evil darkness as just blockages of the 1678 01:19:57,130 --> 01:19:54,200 light that of course you have the power 1679 01:19:59,080 --> 01:19:57,140 you always had the power to remove those 1680 01:20:01,690 --> 01:19:59,090 it makes them a lot less scary 1681 01:20:04,450 --> 01:20:01,700 put some in proportion not that we 1682 01:20:07,720 --> 01:20:04,460 shouldn't be concerned but just puts 1683 01:20:10,750 --> 01:20:07,730 them in the proper perspective and and 1684 01:20:12,490 --> 01:20:10,760 we do need that we've grown up in our 1685 01:20:14,770 --> 01:20:12,500 Western culture to be frightened of 1686 01:20:17,830 --> 01:20:14,780 darkness and evil to think of it as so 1687 01:20:22,270 --> 01:20:17,840 powerful to stay away from that topic 1688 01:20:24,820 --> 01:20:22,280 for fear that it's gonna get us and that 1689 01:20:27,310 --> 01:20:24,830 only only gives it power for that kind 1690 01:20:29,590 --> 01:20:27,320 of thinking and people need to know it 1691 01:20:31,090 --> 01:20:29,600 doesn't have that power and I think 1692 01:20:32,470 --> 01:20:31,100 what's particularly powerful and I hope 1693 01:20:36,790 --> 01:20:32,480 this came through in the interview is 1694 01:20:39,100 --> 01:20:36,800 this idea of the contract because that 1695 01:20:41,080 --> 01:20:39,110 is not only a method of deception here 1696 01:20:44,140 --> 01:20:41,090 that seems to be in play but it's been 1697 01:20:47,229 --> 01:20:44,150 enshrined in our culture through books 1698 01:20:49,090 --> 01:20:47,239 movies as being you know don't make that 1699 01:20:51,550 --> 01:20:49,100 contract with the with the devil you 1700 01:20:53,710 --> 01:20:51,560 could never break it and what Jared says 1701 01:20:56,890 --> 01:20:53,720 and you proved in your work is that oh 1702 01:20:59,430 --> 01:20:56,900 no there's there's no such contract it's 1703 01:21:02,590 --> 01:20:59,440 null and void there it's unenforceable 1704 01:21:04,570 --> 01:21:02,600 just all we have to say I choose to go 1705 01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:04,580 to the light and it's all over 1706 01:21:09,610 --> 01:21:07,610 that's right yes thanks again to Tom 1707 01:21:12,910 --> 01:21:09,620 Zinser for joining me today on skeptic 1708 01:21:15,370 --> 01:21:12,920 oh you know I could talk for a long long 1709 01:21:17,830 --> 01:21:15,380 time about this interview and if you 1710 01:21:19,810 --> 01:21:17,840 listened further to these shows I'm sure 1711 01:21:23,110 --> 01:21:19,820 I will I'm gonna be playing clips from 1712 01:21:27,160 --> 01:21:23,120 this guy for the next hundred shows this 1713 01:21:30,479 --> 01:21:27,170 is everything that I'm about everything 1714 01:21:34,270 --> 01:21:30,489 and I'm after right now is some kind of 1715 01:21:36,880 --> 01:21:34,280 reasonably complete model for how these 1716 01:21:41,229 --> 01:21:36,890 extended consciousness realms might work 1717 01:21:44,680 --> 01:21:41,239 and a suggestion a hint for how we might 1718 01:21:48,220 --> 01:21:44,690 actually I don't know test some of those 1719 01:21:49,990 --> 01:21:48,230 ideas out don't get me started but do 1720 01:21:52,900 --> 01:21:50,000 get me started with one question that I 1721 01:21:55,690 --> 01:21:52,910 hope you'll join me in trying to wrestle 1722 01:21:57,730 --> 01:21:55,700 to the ground and that is 1723 01:22:00,790 --> 01:21:57,740 what are we to do with channeled 1724 01:22:02,740 --> 01:22:00,800 material that's used in this way highly 1725 01:22:04,540 --> 01:22:02,750 controversial right I mean here's a guy 1726 01:22:07,510 --> 01:22:04,550 professionally trained psychologist 1727 01:22:09,460 --> 01:22:07,520 completely goes off reservation says hey 1728 01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:09,470 I'm getting such amazing information 1729 01:22:15,310 --> 01:22:13,010 from this channelled spirit that I'm 1730 01:22:19,000 --> 01:22:15,320 going to start using it in a methodical 1731 01:22:21,550 --> 01:22:19,010 way just as I would talking to some 1732 01:22:25,600 --> 01:22:21,560 colleague I'm gonna use that in these 1733 01:22:28,600 --> 01:22:25,610 clinical sessions what are your feelings 1734 01:22:30,520 --> 01:22:28,610 about that is that's so out of bounds I 1735 01:22:32,230 --> 01:22:30,530 mean what are we to make it out what do 1736 01:22:34,330 --> 01:22:32,240 you make of that and I'm saying how I 1737 01:22:36,430 --> 01:22:34,340 think that's a tremendous leap forward 1738 01:22:39,010 --> 01:22:36,440 and maybe trying to understand this 1739 01:22:42,550 --> 01:22:39,020 thing is it a tremendous leap backwards 1740 01:22:44,590 --> 01:22:42,560 I don't know you tell me join me in the 1741 01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:44,600 skeptical forum or otherwise drop me an 1742 01:22:49,570 --> 01:22:47,290 email and let me know your thoughts
