One word you will never hear the staff in an Emergency Room utter is the word "Quiet." It is thought this single word will open the gates and induce s flood of customers. It was so quiet someone actually said the word, and perhaps of our collective belief, it happened.

We got five cardiac arrests in within 15 minutes. We have three crash carts, but two of the codes were "called" within minutes of arrival and there were enough to go around, though the staff was a bit thin.

Now to the point. I participated in the care of one who was not recussitated successfully. He was a huge man, only 42 and spilling over even our extra wide stretcher, over 400 pounds. With all the commotion around the others, I had been left to complete the paperwork, and I was still in the trauma room after the nurses had cleaned him up so his family could come back to see him, a very important thing, I think to grieving and completion. In any case, I saw a flash of light and movement out of the  corner of my eye, and I turned my head to look at his unmoving hulk, hands folded on his clean white sheet, and a look of peace on his face. It was as if he sat up, and I have to admit it startled me a bit. I could still also see his physical body thorugh his hazy light form, and I thought this must be what people see when they say they see a ghost. The hair on the back of my neck stood up and chills literally ran down my spine........

As I watched it was like his light body formed into a ball which seemed to wink out and disappear right there in the room (that is, it did not shoot out througthe wall or ceiling). I did not see any guides, but took a few breaths (now that my heart was not pounding) and followed through the so-called Tunnel of Light at the end of which loved ones await. When I "caught up" he had guides on either side and was arriving in a room which look very much like a hospital room, but holographic (non-physical). He looked like his physical form, though much thinner and much younger, and was on a bed, under the same white sheet, just awakening to the room around him. He recognized the people standing around his bed and grinned as they embraced. It was a wonderful opportunity to bask in that Pure Unconditional Love vibe.

I have seen many photos of orbs and energetic balls of light, and that is what my Interpretor applied to it, made it look like to me. I think most people get to where they are supposed to/intend to be and never need retrieving. I have also wondered if the only retrievals we do are those associated with our Me-There group cluster and the process is one of re-assembling your Home Group so you can, as a collective, move on, even through The Aperature Bruce and Monroe talk about (my experience is a bit different).

Anyhow-- like A Course In Miracles says, "God's angels hover near, and all about."

Thanks for posting this.

on the question of who needs retrievals and who doesn't...that's an interesting question. Isn't there some thinking about aspects of the same person. Perhaps one aspect needs retrieving and another aspect doesn't. Jane Roberts wrote a book about what she called aspect psychology. I thought the Monroe folks had some thinking about aspects also.

I don't doubt your experiences but at the same time I would be interested in verifiable information.

Maybe there are different levels of retrieval. Most of us don't become earthbound spirits when we pass. Earthbound spirits would be one level of entities needing retrieval.

Then sometimes when people pass over very unexpectedly or in a violent situation, they get confused. All the situations that happened around 9/11 would be like that. I don't think this was just people in one soul group cluster.

Some people seem to hang around because they have unfinished business. This is what is portrayed on Ghost Whisperer.

I sometimes wonder if some of us pass over easily enough but then enter a BST. Then maybe we would be retrievable from the BST. This would be yet another level of retrieval.

Or maybe different aspects of one entity could participate in all of the above.

In a sense I find when "out" exploring that there are aspects of me already existing on those levels when I get there. This makes some sense when I realized that all of these areas are beyond linear time, and I AM in that same moment of simultaneous now in which I appear (to my Intertprtor) to be exploring...

In the greatest sense all retrivals are retrievals of aspects of your greatest Self, the One of Us that is.

Oddly there are thousands of examples of verifiable and verified information with assisted retrievals (Bruce wrote about many, and there are many posted here in this section with dog's names, details of the passing, physical descriptions, all verified). Perhaps the passage of many if not most without getting stuck reflects the general spiritual awakening and quickening which is happening around us, but I think most do transit through the BST areas without being sucked in to the BSTS, to The Park and the reception areas or similar culturally appropriate area. Several have noticed the BST areas thinning and dissolving as they are less populated, and it almost seems like the exit off the Interstate to that area has been closed. The pathways between what has been called Focus 27 and C-1 consciousness (3D reality now) are well marked and rather easy to follow. And there seems to be a much more concerted effort from that side to reach the stragglers and those stuck or left behind.

There is also great movement beyond those areas as well, out where the I-There clusters exist. But this is the subject for other threads...

Hi Thomas,

So much sorrow and grief would evaporate in this world if family and friends of the deceased could do what you did. The passing of anyone is heart-breaking, but to Know they are okay, to Know where they've gone, to be able to visit with them...it would change everything. It's a lot easier to accept that a loved one has cashed in their final ticket, especially when you Know you can decide to make the same trip one day, to wherever they may be.

What has come to me from all my travels is that ultimately, we are all related. In the big, big picture, yes...it's a 'win win situation' for all, in the choices we make, the actions we take, our experiences and knowledge gathered. I know that many of the retrievals I've participated in dealt with aspects or other personalities of the Ultimate Me, my I There disk. Many were not. A lot of them remain question marks. But a couple of things I know for sure from retrieving---people were helped out of stagnant situations, and somewhere along the line the fear of death left my life permanently, and I can't thank enough the retrievees for that gift.

Thanks and much love,

Ginny

Thomas, hi,
always enjoy your posts and this is no exception.  The points you make below intrigue me and I would like to comment further.
"Aspects of you already there when you arrive"  ...yes, I found that too, and some years back went through a mini-crisis trying to understand it.  With help from Jeff Williams "samhain" entity I understood that Higher Self can "project" several versions of "one individual"  onto the planes with only one of them being born in the physical.  And can also do the same after you are "born".  Seems to be all about how adventurous you are in planning your trip.
I attempt to explore this in my second book.

The BST's thinning:  have seen this notion expressed by several obe explorers, mostly Monroe trained.
Can't say I've noticed.  Darn areas are so jammed packed with millions of souls I'm not even sure how you can tell.
Are you seriously telling me that catholic heaven and muslim heaven (for example) are losing population to focus 27?  Or are you suggesting  that focus 27 is providing another heaven world for catholics who aren't comfortable in the old one but are still essentially catholics?
Would love to hear you expand on this point Thomas.
Especially if you've met evangelical christians or muslims living happily in focus 27 while retaining the essentials of their faith.  The ones I recall meeting are firmly within their BST's, although that, of course, is heaven to them.

love and thanks, gordon
