— Intro: When spiritual experiences change reality

Charlie Kelly Medium 0:03

All Salt Sink, I am excited to announce that I am coming to Amsterdam to do a demonstration platform evening of Mediumship with our next guest, Medium Dennis Floor. It's on Thursday, the 6th of August. Find out more, get tickets in the show notes by going to Dennis's website and hope to see you there. Hello and welcome to the Star Wars Think podcast. It's me, Psychic Medium Jason Paul, and it's lovely to have you here. Now, a lot of people say they want to sign from the universe, and I am no exception. I've asked the universe for many signs in my time, and I think I could have been slapped in the face with a 10-ton lorry by the spirit world at some point, and that wouldn't have been enough. So a lot of people they want spirit to show them something. They want proof, they want a spiritual experience. But I'm not sure people always understand what they're asking for. Because what happens when the signs from the universe actually come? Because a lot of people are having experiences that you can't explain. Visions, intense energies, synchronicities, moments that completely change how you understand reality. And what happens when spirituality stops being a nice idea and starts becoming something deeply real? Because awakening isn't always peaceful. Sometimes it's beautiful, sometimes it's healing, and sometimes it's just as confusing as hell. Because even a lot of experiences that people have in haunted kind of house situations, a lot of the time that's them starting to awaken and open up. And I think one of the biggest misconceptions about spirituality is that more experiences automatically mean more growth. I'm not sure that's true. You can have profound spiritual experiences and still feel lost. You can chase signs and still feel disconnected, and you can search everywhere for answers and still end up further away from yourself. And that's something today's guest, Medium Dennis Blore, speaks about with incredible honesty. Dennis has had some truly extraordinary spiritual experiences from intense visions and mystical encounters to deep explorations of healing, shamanism, energy, consciousness, and alignment. Because what I loved most about this phenomena, it was the deeper question underneath it all. How do we stay grounded while exploring the spiritual? How do we remain open without losing ourselves? Dennis,

— Welcoming Dennis Blaauw

Charlie Kelly Medium 2:52

welcome to the Soul Sync. It's lovely to have you on.

SPEAKER_00 2:56

Thank you, Jason.

Charlie Kelly Medium 2:58

Oh, well, I I first met you in a course fairly recently on Mediumship, and I had the best time with you. I absolutely loved it because you kept my attention so much at every dinner time because you've just got such a beautiful mind and a very inquisitive mind. So for everyone listening now, you tell us about you. You work as a software engineer, but there's a lot more to you spiritually, which we're gonna unpack in a moment. Tell us about you.

SPEAKER_00 3:31

Yeah, correctly. So I'm currently not active, but I'm about to springboard launch my practice, and I've been trying to do that for a few times. And this practice is mainly focused on healing, and I really would like to go and to bring in shamanism into this work, or also maybe a little bit of acupuncture. Now, this signs like already going into three different fields, like mediumship, shamanism, and acupuncture. And unfortunately, I've been through all of that and many, many more. But what I connect very well with is nature, so trees, elements, animals, and using mediumistic capabilities, I also feel like spirit can also be present during healings. And unfortunately, I'm not such a big fan of doing it online. I really like to do it in physical context, but nowadays you see that everything goes more and more online, even healing, like energetic healing. So I'm not so sure how I would get that a place yet. But because a big part of healing as I see it is also reconnecting either with your spirit guides, people who passed, or just to define in general. And I think most of us actually get a very good new harmony by reconnecting, and mediumship definitely has the capabilities to offer this, so I'll definitely keep some mediumistic things in there.

Charlie Kelly Medium 5:08

That makes many strings to one's bow, but I like that, and I I think firstly that healing and mediumship go hand in hand, they do, you know, mediumship is healing, isn't it, in itself, and combining, you know, having those three distinct interests is very interesting, even the shamanism and how that sort of ties into things is is is interesting as well.

SPEAKER_00 5:35

Yeah, I agree. And I'm very curious how it will eventually end up, but I'm I'm gonna definitely start with the medium, evidential mediumship,

— Healing, shamanism & energetic alignment

SPEAKER_00 5:45

maybe some trans mediumship, and I'm gonna do the energetic healings. And what I'm currently also doing, especially for myself, is is realigning devices or crystals. So I'm very sensitive, for example, to to electric devices, and I was in the beginning I was just keeping my energy up high, but because I'm I'm running a family too, being a software engineer, it's not really the the nicest spot to keep your energy well refined. So what happened was that the effect of either my phone or the laptop and my tiredness like started to get at me, and instead of being able to keep up, I figured, well, you know what I can do? I can rewrite also the devices and the crystals. And I gave it a go. And so far it seems to work. So I also would like to offer that either as a sort of course or something that people can learn, because it's really not that difficult, it's quite easy to learn, or maybe some extra service that I I offer.

Charlie Kelly Medium 6:54

When you're talking about rewiring a crystal or a device, what what what do you mean by that?

SPEAKER_00 6:59

Yeah, rewiring is is probably not the right word to use, but so realigning it, it's more like so different kinds of materials are very influential. So I think most of them the silicon chips, for example, they have also some sort of a crystal within it, and a salesium, it's like basically simple, and that's really easy to program also energetically. And by doing that, just very simply connecting to to the earth, connecting to the cosmos, bringing those together, and then bringing it within that either device or crystal, you can start to harmonize it again. It's basically giving and healing, but only instead of using a person or giving the healing on a person, you're now giving it on a device or a crystal. And weirdly enough, it works very well. Why do you believe that is? Why do I believe that is? So now we see we see science shift, right? So we came from a material perspective, but we tend to go more towards the perspective that consciousness is the base of everything. And what you see with spirituality is that you kind of like always start to approach it from this layer already, from this perspective, where consciousness is the base layer of everything. So with that in mind, we are already connected with everything around us, and some things that have a different rhythm, a different vibration than what we have. And if they misalign very or if they misalign very big, like that there's a very poor balance between those twos, then the effect is that you get some sort of disease between those two different kinds of fields. But if you start to bring those fields closer together in sort of harmonization, then eventually this disease will lift itself. So by you using energetic work, in you can do it persons, but you can do it in objects too, it's basically consciousness. So you're reprogramming the consciousness in a way. And but I'm not such a big fan of reprogramming, but it it brings the message across. But the reason why I'm not such a big fan of reprogramming, it kind of puts the ball in the cord of the person who is doing the work, but it's more like giving the availability of the other part to also realign. So you're connecting yourself with the earth and you're connecting yourself with consciousness, and thereby you're connecting a harmonization within your you're creating a harmonization within your own field, and that you give towards the other, either a person or a device, and you try to bring it in such a way that it can start to accept it and start to realign itself through what you offer, and then eventually it starts to realign with the cosmos, and the moment that happens, then it's already easier for you to be with the device, for example.

Charlie Kelly Medium 10:20

Well, it's interesting that you've uh discovered this by kind of the disalignment between your day job, which is surrounded by computers and devices, and you know, obviously the demands of being a parent and being contactable, all you know present their own challenges. And it's interesting that you've been experimenting as such to kind of mitigate against that. One thing that really jumped out to me when I was reading through a lot of the show notes here is how many kind of very interesting and kind of crazy spiritual experiences you've had over a period of time. Now, obviously, I said obviously we are the same age because I'm a right nosy bugger sitting there at the dinner table. The first thing I'm trying to work actually, it wasn't me that was playing that game of guess the age. I think that started from someone else, and I started then dabbling myself.

SPEAKER_00 11:14

You're a bit offended as well.

Charlie Kelly Medium 11:16

Well, well, I feel I was I can't remember why I was offended. I never normally get I never even normally played that game. I normally uh check out immediately and say I'm not going to play it. But I'm very accurate actually. I've got pinpoint precision at guessing people's ages. Um I don't know where it comes from. Well, yeah, something like that. Something like that, thank you, Dennis. Um, but one thing that jumped out

— Dennis’s awakening at 19 years old

Charlie Kelly Medium 11:40

to me was, and I just the reason I wanted to say your age was to put this in the next point into context. But you are when you was 19 years old, you had a very kind of cr crazy um experience, it sounds like tell us a bit about that.

SPEAKER_00 12:03

Yeah. So there was a a different ball game going on in spiritual country, I would say. So we were prior to 2012, and there was this this whole vibe of that there would be a window present to humanity to gain easy access to enlightenment, and that it would roll out in waves. So prior to 2009, I was already working towards enlightenment on a pretty intense manner, and not that I would do a lot of meditations or I would do a lot of practices, but it was just constantly on my mind, like everywhere that I went, I went into a conversation, I had it on my mind. I went into school, which I didn't go too often because also I was I was trying to avoid school because I was addicted to gaming, but I was constantly being busy with enlightenment. And so what started to happen around that period is that I started to have very strong visions of of this manifestation as well. What I what I talked about, that there would be a wave of enlightenment and that there would be a lot of people jumping on that boat. And it was not necessarily like if people talk about 2012, I still hear a lot of people say at the exact year 2012, but it wasn't like that. The feeling was that it would start way earlier and it would kind of like end around 2012, and then after that, there would be slowly picking up of more chaos in the world and more chaos in the world, and that's interesting because I still have that same feeling that and I think it's shared. But anyway, so let's continue to around 2009 because I was so busy with that, I had a lot of uh visions, and I had also a lot of visions of what happened in the past, and I had a lot of visions of spiritual teachings being given by teachers and being connected, and I had a lot of deja vues, but besides this, at the same time, parallel to it, I had also a very strong inner emotion, and this inner emotion, I'm quite not sure where it came from, but there was this anger within me, and it was anger towards myself and anger towards the world, and I played with that a lot because this emotion made me reach deeper within myself. It was like this emotion came from a deeper layer, and by accessing that emotion, I was able to also access that deeper layer. Now, mind you, the the world that I was living in was very shallow, of course. I was just doing like my high school, and that was it. I was doing some work. But then with that emotion, I could connect to something deeper, a deeper truth, and I knew that I was on my way of resolving this emotion and eventually expanding into something new, like a new consciousness for myself, a new perspective to life. So high school was about to end, and I team up with three others, and we set out to go to a spiritual journey towards India. Wasn't my choice, I actually wanted to go to China instead. However, I didn't want to travel alone. Somebody else really wanted to go to India, and a very good friend of mine also wanted to join, and he also really liked India. So we sat on India, and prior to that, I remember laying in my bed and still playing with that same emotion, and the anger was so intense that I kind of like had an idea of, yeah, let's just fuck it for a better word. And what I did, I pushed all my energy with willpower and intention through my third eye, and I pushed, I pushed, I pushed, I pushed. And that was my whole meditation. The moment I realized I was floating away, I pushed it back. Eventually I couldn't handle it anymore and just fell asleep. But while I was dreaming, I was dreaming about being in India on the slums, and this woman appeared next to me. It started first with a small child appearing next to me, showing me India and the slums, and then this woman appeared next to me, and she asked me the legendary question,

— The life-changing trip to India

SPEAKER_00 16:53

legendary for my life, but what do you want to do?

Charlie Kelly Medium 16:57

Oh, one of the biggest questions we can ever be asked at a young age, what does one want to do? It's a big question. I'm still asking myself that one at the moment, Dennis.

SPEAKER_00 17:07

I couldn't answer it in the dream. I I understand why many people can't answer it. I also couldn't answer it in the in the dream. And because I couldn't answer it, this same emotion came up, but it overwhelmed me. And instead of being anger, it turned into sadness. And as this feeling was coming up, the dream started to change, and this person turned out to be some sort of goddess because she was starting to show me different kinds of visions of how people were connected to Buddhas, to gods, and how the gods were again connected to people, and how this was a sort of circular environment. And she started to speak to me in very clear words, and she asked me, How do you like the divine? At that moment, it really made me sick. I was getting nauseous, and I said, It makes me nauseous, and I broke free. And as I broke myself free, I heard like angelic voices singing, and I came down and woke up. And that was like I think a few months prior to going to India. Fine. We go to India, and the deja foos were still happening, and they started to be more intense and more frequent. And as we land, I got the feeling like I've been here, I've done this, I've been here, I've been through this spiritual journey as a yogi or something in that corner. And we traveled towards this first meeting place where we would meet up with somebody that one of my friends knew, and he was a Swami, and they were all talking and they were all sitting, and I was kind of like being ignored in that circle as they were catching up. And all of a sudden, this Swami turns to me and asks me the same question like, what are you gonna do? But just a little bit different. What are you gonna do in India? It's a long time being six months here. What are you gonna do? But it primed me, and that same emotion directly arose, and as it did, I cried a few tears, it didn't completely come out, and the world had changed. I walked outside, it was the same world, but different, if that makes sense. I saw things differently, I felt things differently, and it was as if a orc had disappeared.

Charlie Kelly Medium 19:32

It sounds like a moment that sort of changed your life. You kind of felt that, and it sounds like it kind of shifted and brought a lot of things into perspective. You know, like you said, you went from my relationship at school wasn't a great one. I wasn't really turning up much towards the end, to be quite honest with you. I was ready to leave. I could my school, they didn't even tell you when it was the last day because it was so badly run that the the teachers would end up getting it from the pupils. It was a very bad school, very awful. But you know, this just sounds like a moment that kind of changed anything, uh everything for you. And you know, I was reading in as well. You you feels to me that you've kind of been taken into this world by virtue of you know all these different experiences happening to you as a result of your sensitivity because my journey was much more one of you know trying to go and find these these things, yeah. Because when I was reading here, I've met blue beings. I was thinking, what on earth is one of those? I was thinking, why am I not meeting any blue beings? Or such as that.

SPEAKER_00 20:41

Yeah, so the story actually didn't end there as as I uh as I stopped. Please do tell me. Actually, like if I can finish it, it makes sense why I went to the city. Please do, yes, please do. So that change, that shift in perspective didn't last so long. So it faded away. And I tried to get back to it because I thought that's where I need to be. But I didn't succeed within those six months. And as I got back home, I I had this constant push of energy going through

— Fear, resistance & spiritual overwhelm

SPEAKER_00 21:15

my system, and this push of energy always came with very strong visions and very strong feelings, and it would just bubble up through my energetic system towards my head, and instead of embracing it, I started resisting it, and I really don't know why. Until today, I don't know why, and that's something weird because I loved it, I loved the feeling, but I kind of had an idea that it is like if I accept this, then I really go through that door, the door gets shut behind me, and there's no way back. And although it was maybe everything that I thought I wanted, I said no. No. And from that moment on, I started fighting it. And that created a lot of confusion within myself, confusion externally, socially. It was very, very awkward. Many people didn't know what was going on. I didn't know what was going on. I was getting advice. I was following that advice. At the same time, I was thinking, this is not right. This is not correct. And I went to some different people who were supposedly helping me. I'm saying supposedly not because I feel like they they didn't, but I to today I just don't know whether it was the right move or whether they were correctly in what they saw. However, I turned eventually the nut down and the energy stopped flowing and leaving all the burnt bridges behind me would bigger confusion inside of myself, but still a very strong push to develop spiritually. But now I was kind of afraid of yoga, I was afraid of Reiki, which I picked up, and I didn't know what to do.

Charlie Kelly Medium 23:10

What do you feel it was that was making you so afraid of it? Because it feels to me that you had this experience, it was so life-changing and felt so much love and clarity from it. Then having sort of almost chased it in a way to then have gone complete full circle back to you know a place of fear from it. But it was almost because it was you know making me really closely have to look at myself, probably in so many regards. But you know, what do you feel that was?

SPEAKER_00 23:47

Yeah, good question. I I wish I really knew. And even till today, I I sometimes have the idea of like, gosh, I wish it would present itself again and that we could have a normal talk and then maybe go through it or not. But it's it's not happening anymore, though.

Charlie Kelly Medium 24:11

And it but that then led you on to have a lot of other experiences, hasn't it? Because it feels to me, okay, that's stopped, but then you know, Pandora's box has opened here, looking at some of what you've experienced.

SPEAKER_00 24:28

It did. I think around the first thing that I started picking up was okay, I wanted to go to China, okay, let's do something Chinese. So I went to follow an acupuncture course and started to do more qi Kong. Also, I started to do more shamanism because that was around, and people that I knew were working with it. And I know it's not the right correct term because it was Native American tradition and then the energetic

— Spirit animals and extraordinary synchronicities

SPEAKER_00 24:55

healing aspects of it. Well, we called it shamanism, and I think many people still call it shamanism. And the story kind of like bubbled through through these different traditions that I was picking up. For example, in shamanism, you have this, or in the in especially in Native American tradition, you have this concept of a spirit animal. And I as I was sitting there going in a trans meditation, and then somebody would guide you to a guided trans meditation, going through yeah, it's it's very regular, like everybody does it. It's it's like you go through this meditation where you go either underground or upwards, and then when you're deep enough, you're you open up a door, and then you just let your mind explore what is there and let the animal come to you, and that's your power animal, right? So as I was sitting there, I was going through that, and I first met one animal, and I'm like, no, no, no, I'm not there yet. The meditation is not done. And I started continuing and forcing myself to continue up the ladder, and then eventually the the meditation was there to see the animal, and as I saw it, the same animal came to sit on the roof as we were meditating, and just this pillar of lights and energy dropped down from above, and it was definitely not me just imagining it because the I believe you the shaman doing this also was like, Yeah, yeah, that just happened. Of course, that happened, and for him it was like the normal thing in the world. And I was like, Yeah, okay, awesome, that just happened, and from there on I saw this animal appear more often as I was still struggling, for example, whether or not I should have this energy because I it didn't directly close, right? So it went in faces and slowly eventually everything closed off, but this energy was still kind of sometimes coming up in me. I went to the beach to have like a session with myself to make up my mind what to do. And as I'm walking towards the beach, four of my power animals are sitting just before the entrance of the beach, and they call at me as I go up and I start meditating. I get this rush of energy again, and I'm sitting on a carpet that I brought in India, and people must think I'm crazy, but like I took it, and as symbolically, I was like, okay, I'm done with this, and I threw it in the sea. Luckily, there was wind, and it threw right back uh at me. The wind threw it right back at me. I picked it up and then I threw it again in the sea, and I walked away. And as I walked away, and these four crows came over the dunes and they encircled me and they started cawing at me. So I stopped. And then they took off and they circled around that same cloth that I was sitting on, and they started again wanting me to pick it up, or at least that's how I interpreted it. And I came there, I picked it up, and then they flew off.

Charlie Kelly Medium 28:09

What do you believe it when these experiences are happening? What do you why do you feel they're happening to you on reflection now?

SPEAKER_00 28:21

Because you're not listening and they want to make it.

Charlie Kelly Medium 28:23

Yeah, okay. I thought you were gonna say that like a suck in the face from a spirit world. It almost makes me laugh because it it's when the spirit world wants to grab my attention, they know the ultimate way to do it is to use buckets of humour because it's the only way to really grab my attention is to make something really ridiculously funny. But it's funny the things that the spirit worlds have to do to make us get attention, you know, even the fact that you've had to have four power animals circling you in such a way in order to get your attention in that moment, you know. It does make it does make me, you know, it's very interesting, isn't it?

SPEAKER_00 29:02

Yeah, it is. But what I really wanted to do is. Go on. What I really wanted was just a normal conversation to have like an understanding of what's going on. But yeah.

Charlie Kelly Medium 29:16

You it was the sort of experience where you were left with more questions than answers at the end.

SPEAKER_00 29:21

Yeah, yeah. And they say I'm intelligent, and I'm like, yeah, they got that wrong, at least.

Charlie Kelly Medium 29:27

I just think it's fascinating that all these things have, you know, happened to you. And when you've been telling me about some of them in recent times, you know, the ego obviously chips in thinking, why am I not having these experiences? But some of them sound, you know, quite scary at the time and very life-changing. And, you know, to be having these when you're sort of trying to figure things out, trying to live a normal life, trying to juggle the challenges of life anyway, and then be having these kind of experiences is interesting. But it's we hear a lot about them on the soul sink, you know. A lot of people find that they're having these experiences in order to grab their attention in one way or another.

SPEAKER_00 30:07

Yeah, I really didn't have the idea that and um necessarily most of these experiences were really changing me. Because what you see is like you kind of get a high, like a spiritual high, and then eventually you drop down into being your normal self. And yes, you you gain a new understanding, and then yes, you can start working with it. And I think that's probably the best thing you can do, because with this new understanding, you can approach the world differently and start giving attention to other details, or maybe you can let things go because you found new meaning, new understanding, or some healing in these experiences. But it had been it happened a lot though, and I think at some times it's also that I don't know how to say it, but many or oftentimes we hear people say, like, I wish the universe gave me a sign and they gave me a sign, but maybe something else is going on too, and that is when you align yourself to a certain rhythm of energy, to a certain vibration, then automatically certain things start swallowing up. And I especially saw this happening because I delve into many traditions and and things. For example, and I think this is super interesting because it's it sets everything apart, especially for for the community that we live in, because most of this, most of us are doing stuff like shamanism, yoga,

— When spiritual seeking pulls you off course

SPEAKER_00 31:40

qikong, mediumship. But at one point, and and don't ask me why, please, but I can't make any promises, I'm afraid, but carry on. I I picked up the Quran, and I thought, like, okay, you know it every sign has been I should pick up the Quran and become Muslim. And I was really devoted to it, which caused a major social disbalance in my environment. And what started happening is that at some point my mind was wired in such a way that I couldn't normally access the train without looking around me and thinking, oh, you guys are going to hell, you guys are going to hell because you're not following the Islam, you guys are going to hell. And there was this inner conflict going on within my perception of daily life because I knew where I came from, but my mind was already shifting towards this new perspective. At the same time, I had from my mediumistic capabilities, I had felt energetic spirits coming closer to me, which I was unfamiliar with, but I immediately recognized them to be part of the energy of the Islam and fitting that. And eventually I also started to hear whispers. And I don't know if you heard anything about it. And I'm also not so sure if many people know about that, but for some reason in the in the mono religion, they talk about whispers, and it's it's not the same as sitting for medium shift and then doing evidential and then hearing clear clear audience, like what is going through, but it's kind of like a negative entity or something whispering something in your ear, and it's very intense and disturbing, actually. And I bet it is. No, it was predictive things. For example, I would hear them sing the song that would pop up on the radio, and I didn't even know somebody would turn on the radio. And it was really weird, but I got out of that. So eventually all those things left me again as my mind just automatically cleans it. One good thing is like we have an automatic cleaning system, it's in our body, so the moment we harmonize it, like our body heals, but it also goes for mental capacities. The moment we harmonize our mental capacities, it starts flushing out stuff we don't need anymore. And what you don't use, you lose. So when I stopped it and I started to let it go, it just almost immediately also dissipated from my mind, and I started to see the world as I was before. Probably also because it really didn't fit with me. So it was easier for my own being to go into a different vibration than I was in there. So it was also you know not really gluing to I feel like I want to ask the question you just asked me not to ask at the beginning, which is why I won't ask it, but actually, I think it's good because I was looking for a sign, and I've heard I felt that's what you were gonna say. Yeah, and I've heard others say this too. What sign was you looking for? What path should I walk? And I've heard this from others too, like they were asking, for example, there was this this podcast series which I watched recently about a cult, and somebody there said, I was just looking for friends, and I was praying for friends, and eventually I ended up with this cult. But because I was praying for friends and I really wanted to have a group where where I felt like a cohesion, and this presented itself, I thought my wishes were granted, and then I dove in.

Charlie Kelly Medium 35:44

You can

— Cults, belonging & the search for meaning

Charlie Kelly Medium 35:45

understand how people get sucked into sort of cults for that very reason. You know, I'm looking for love, I'm looking for acceptance, I'm looking to be part of something. You know, I'll never forget actually, one of the early episodes of the Soul Sync I did was about someone, a lady who'd uh who sort of got sucked into a cult with her child at the time. And I've heard some crazy stories over a period of time about people who've uh you you only need to look on Netflix, don't you? And there's so many of these uh crazy cult type stories.

SPEAKER_00 36:13

It's insane, and like what we said prior to this, like there are so many, and they're so captive too. Like they really draw in a lot of people who are searching, and they draw in a lot of people who really want to make something spiritually, and when you see them on the service, they seem right, but when you go in, then all of a sudden you realize, oh where am I in now?

Charlie Kelly Medium 36:43

And then Yeah, this doesn't look like what I thought it thought it was, and you know, your reality starts becoming uh distorted. So I wanted to ask you about something else you put interesting down on your form, which I was reading, which was all about your views on Dharma and Karma. To some people listening to this, they're gonna straight away wonder what I'm what I'm on about, Dharma and Karma.

SPEAKER_00 37:08

Right. Yeah, so karma is is probably mostly known in the sense that uh do good, receive good, do bad, receive bad. And dharma is kind of like an extension of that, but it is sort of your live mission and where you should propel towards and what is propelling towards you. And a big part of Dharma is probably based on your karma. This is probably how most people know it. What I think with karma, it's also

— Karma, dharma & life purpose

SPEAKER_00 37:54

not necessarily the universe giving you back what you put in, but sometimes we don't realize what we're doing to ourselves, to our own mind, to our own energetic field. So if you take the concept that everything is consciousness, we come from the the ultimate source, which is love, light, which is all-knowing, and then eventually we started to be us separate individual, but still this connection is within us. So the more we heal, the more we eventually return back to that reality, all-loving and all encompassing, etc. So that means that there is already a quote unquote correct path for us, which means like if we if we obtain wisdom, if we obtain compassion and stuff like that, then we align more with the ultimate consciousness, with the ultimate truth. So this path is kind of like already set out to for us. Now, if we deviate from it, so if we don't follow these things, we automatically, by nature and by design, we start to pull our field into a direction which is not helpful for it. So thereby creating a sort of disease. And this disease, this creates some friction, creates some vibrational activities within ourselves too, and that eventually starts interacting with things around us, and therefore our reality can shift according to our own actions. So if you take this a little bit from a different perspective, what I'm trying to say is that if, for example, or let's let's first give another which will make the transition a little bit easier. If, for example, we have a very strong rage, and we really take that rage and we we make fists, we scream, we leave an impression on our body. So even though our mind stops being angry, our body still has that impression, and it still needs to let that go. So that is an action, right? So we embrace that rage, and with that, we just kind of like jump our energy into a certain vibration. And when we are we stop it with our mind or with our heart, it doesn't mean that the field that we are living in directly embraces our nature that we are. No, it needs to kind of like settle back. And meanwhile, our field is still interacting with other fields that are around us. Does that make sense so far? It does make sense, yes, it does make sense.

Charlie Kelly Medium 40:37

So um yeah, yes, yeah. So I'm with you. I don't know if anyone else is, I'm sure they are, but in the nature of the soul scene, we go down many rabbit holes. But please, Dennis, continue.

SPEAKER_00 40:49

And this concept you can basically apply to everything that you do. So may it be like I'm gonna talk to Jason, I'm gonna be very friendly, and then your field is gonna change in a certain way, and then you're move to another field, and the way you have structured your field due to that contact is gonna be the base from where you start out to interact with the other field that you're connected to or your other experiences. So anything that you do leaves an impression upon your own field, which then forms the basis for new interactions that you have. And therefore, you can have impressions that make your life easier, or you can have impressions that make your life worse. And especially when you're choosing like poorly, you're choosing very selfish, it kind of leaves a very big imprint on your heart because in in reality you are pure, you're loving, and that's where you need to go. But now you're choosing to disregard this nature that you are, and that is basically action what you're doing, and that is the imprint that you're leaving on your field. And now when it starts interacting with other fields, it per definition gives you an impression like yeah, the world is shit, and the world is doing this to you. So this is this is quickly laid out, right? But this is kind of like the concept what what I feel also plays a very big part in karma and dynamite.

Charlie Kelly Medium 42:16

It's very interesting. I think um what you're saying there about your energy, and at the end of the day, everything is energy, isn't it? And if you're allowing yourself to be in situations or you're absorbing someone else's energy or whatever, that is all going to carry with you. And you know, I've even started recently being so much more aware of the thoughts I have, which again are energy, because you know, it's like that whole thing, isn't it? You stub your toe when you get out of bed in the morning and the rest of the day is an absolute nightmare because you've allowed that, you've taken that on board energetically. But you know, I do believe that you know we carry these things with us. And if we're doing if we're doing love-based actions, things that are kind, you know, trying to to to to show you know everyone that we come into contact with some level of kindness, I believe that is what puts us in the right vibration energetically. So, you know, I I totally get what you're saying there. You know, in your time as well, it sounds like you've had a lot of shifts in perspectives as well, because one thing that jumped out at me was even we've talked quite a lot on this show about ayahuasca, I've never done it. I would love to do to maybe try it one day. But it sounds like you've um at times sort of had

— Why boundaries matter in spirituality

Charlie Kelly Medium 43:30

experiences where you haven't wanted them, other times you've gone and sort of sought them out, but other times you've tried to close the door shut. It sounds like it's, you know, it's but it's been a long, you know, journey for you for you. And I think like a lot of us it is. It's you know, we we sort of come into it with curiosity and then find ourselves getting drawn back in again and again to whatever it might be.

SPEAKER_00 43:51

Yeah, I don't necessarily recommend it though to go to so many different things. Mia was really because my foothold, I lost my foothold to speak. spirituality and I was trying to find a new one. Maybe for many people that's the reason that they they jump around but so everything in life in our physical worlds showcases with a border, right? And traditions are actually also sort of borders. So if we are in a spiritual tradition, it actually means it protects life in a sense. And we tend to quickly jump to some sort of thought of padanta saying everything is one and everything is fine and everything and law is law. No, it's it really isn't like that all the way through. We are here we are having borders and we're having them for a reason. Even if our childs are growing up we give them borders because they cannot handle everything. And if you think about it we have a veil around us and that starts happening when we are very young right most of us drop in the veil at the age of one or two or something like that. Maybe even earlier and some are have a very thick veil and others have a very thin fail. That's also a boundary. So it also like even though we we want to pop it but what if it's also some sort of protection for us but anyway so what but the traditions you you see that they they provide a certain structure and a certain boundary and because of that you're able to actually accelerate your growth if you understand how to use it. And because you're in that framework you can grow to a certain point and then you feel like okay now I'm not getting anywhere I'm ready for the next step. And I think that should be the moment where you start switching traditions or you start opening other things. But if you constantly switch your energetic field that we just talked about never can really start to vibrate differently that makes sense.

Charlie Kelly Medium 45:51

Well yes I'm terrible for that I'm always going from one thing to the next thing to another thing and it's like you know you need to stick to one thing to really make progress. But you know I think we all have our different paths don't we and some some of us like to take the more scenic route to get to an end destination and some of us like to take the bullet train yeah yeah I agree I agree. And eventually we have time enough right I mean what's time right well exact and well what is time time doesn't even bloody exist and I'm becoming

— Final reflections on healing & alignment

Charlie Kelly Medium 46:20

more to uh realize as as I go down this journey you because you you're starting to dedicate ever more of your life and existence to sort of helping other people because I know you've recently opened up hours in your week to be pursuing that of healing others which I love Dennis I love I think you'll be really good at it. Yeah I I think you will I was talking about you not me you're also very talkative and that's also a good skill that you can help other people with well yes it is I was more talking about you though having read on the show notes that you've opened up more week to treat others but yes I'm also trying to pursue that as well myself at the moment do you know what I knew it would be a fascinating conversation because you are a very curious soul and you're like me you've got you know many questions and I've got myself I'm always sort of bouncing from one thing to the next thing but it's it's interesting because you've just had so many you know crazy experiences over a period of time. And then we both arrive at this place of trying to develop our mediumship which is beautiful which is a whole nother path in itself.

SPEAKER_00 47:30

Yeah it is you you said you also have different kinds of experiences so I only know you from the classical English mediumship tradition. Then what else did you do?

Charlie Kelly Medium 47:41

I've I meant I've had experiences in terms of feelings from the other world feelings from the spirit I wouldn't say I've gone into doing kind of other modalities I did do some Reiki and I still do do that from time to time. You know I do feel at some point I'd love to try ayahuasca but I don't feel like my time is right now to be called towards that I feel that my time to do that is later. And um you know I'm trying to go by only these days exactly what I feel not what I think. But I've had a lot of experiences of the other world and then making themselves known to me and like we said earlier on in the conversation being slapped in the face by the spirit world you know that seems to be at times the only way the spirit world can get through to me. So I've had many experiences where they've made themselves known with the most wonderful sense of humor that they know grabs my attention. Not joking well I think you've got a wonderful sense of humor I think you've got a wonderful sense of humor. So I'm going to ask you Dennis in true soul sink style to leave us on a theme for this conversation today a final thought a final thought we're already at the end we do it goes very quickly doesn't it yes yeah I think like we haven't touched on many other things too I heard you say blue beings for example that was one of the things so what us about blue beings then leave us on a final thought because I didn't want to hear about those because I've never heard about that.

SPEAKER_00 49:15

I never heard about them either but when our son was born I was doing a lot of practicing trans mediumship and I was receiving a mantra for myself and I was also a little bit experiencing with some other things and then I realized there were two beings present during a meditation that wanted to come close because with trans I also developed a little bit of a sensation of what is around me since that I can understand what wants to merge with me or blend with me. And I never saw these beings before so I asked them to come close and it was the moment I did that and it kind of like my spirit team opened the door for them like it wasn't that they directly could come but they opened the door for them and they could come closer to my field and they started connecting intensely with my energetic system so with my my nervous system and it was almost similar to how the encounter with the angel previously was where they would just merge themselves in my field and through that you would kind of like start to get like being able to have like a telepathic conversation and I was like oh wow so this is this is cool but the moment they started mentioning our son's name and drawing attention to him I was kind of like oh let's not go there and I cut out the connection yeah and I could imagine now what turns out after that I started looking into blue beings and a friend of mine actually noted noted me to a YouTube video where somebody explicitly is call is talking about blue beings and supposedly blue beings come along when there are children and they tend to be very healing and they tend to be very guiding but normally only when there are small ch kids around or small children or babies.

Charlie Kelly Medium 51:18

So it's kind of like an interdimensional being spirit it's definitely not an angel but it has a very high love and a high sense of purpose and it comes on these occasions isn't that funny maybe it's something to do with children in themselves to this world we just don't know is there is so much if you would elaborate on that how do you mean like it has to do maybe something with being the child in themselves or I just wonder if it if the blue beings were only coming through at the point of childhood do you feel that they're you know maybe something to connect to just children because I've never heard of what a blue being is you see yeah it might also be that their mission is to make sure that souls connect towards earth and our son had difficult problems. So there was a reason maybe in that line that why they would come and make themselves known and they maybe thought like well if the parent is open to communication why not use this channel instead of before we all were coming down here to do a bit of screening just to see sort of the family set up oh we got here a father that looks slightly open we got a ma not so open over here but we can definitely do something with him yes for sure and we see he's be experiences with his portal whilst 19 we'll push some of his buttons again over there yeah so so the final thought I would say like you would be surprised that so many things go but what is important I believe and going through all these experiences is that if you find yourself then eventually you will attract the things that connect with you and you can stay true to your own core values especially when dealing for example with spiritual highs and you think oh that's a diamond I want to get that and I think we kind of set the wrong example because we're showing all these spiritual experiences and how people might be like want to get that so they might go into different directions which actually doesn't align with themselves and I think that's not proper make sure you you really align with yourself and through that alignment things start opening up and that's how it did for me.

SPEAKER_00 53:50

Like the Blue Beings for example there was true alignment with myself and my spirit team and it was not because I was looking for it but because I was kind of ready for it to receive so trust your own values trust your own core and make sure you stand by your own values and your compassion and your own wisdom and then eventually you see that oh things start clicking I think that's a lovely way to close the episode Dennis thank you for coming onto the SoulSync thank you very much Jason it was too short it was indeed I'll be getting you back on before we know it so don't worry about that.

Charlie Kelly Medium 54:31
