To All,

Exploring the Afterlife develops perceptual skills that can be used to explore many, maybe any, areas of Consciousness.  I am working on a new workshop and I need some help from forum members. 

As part of a sort of "let's pretend" exercise:

If you could watch a TV program where a real news reporter is doing a real interview with a real space alien, what would you want the news reporter to ask them or have them tell about?

And then, the same type of news interview with an animal, like a dolphin, cat, dog, a Killer Whale in captivity, a zoo animal, or take your pick of animal.

Probably sounds like an odd request, well, I guess it is  ::) 

Thanks,

Bruce 

Hello Bruce:

Here are some possible questions.

For an alien I’d ask, “Do your antennae ever itch?

Seriously, if it was a race that existed for much longer than the human race, and if such race had its negative period like human beings have been having for years, how long did this race of Aliens have to exist before it reached the point where it lived according to love?

What enabled such changes to take place?

If such a race lives according to love, how does it deal with unfriendly races?

Are there any alien races that have existed for much longer than the human race yet it still hasn’t evolved to the point where it is able to live according to love?

If a race lives according to love, is there a point to incarnating physically?

When a race lives mostly according to love, is it still possible to exist in a physical way or does such a race ascend to a higher energy level?

Regarding animals, for a bunny rabbit I would ask, “Do your whiskers ever itch?” :)

Some obvious questions:

Does your planet have what we call religions.  If so, what are the main ones and what do they believe?  Do any of your religions have belief in one or many Gods, and are any similar to the religions on earth especially the Jesus story?

What is the view of life after death?  If you (or your religions) believe in that, has there ever been proof of survival?

Do you believe in reincarnation and if so have you been able to establish proof?

How do you communicate?  Do you use some form of speech or do you communicate non-verbally?

Have you or any other civilizations interfered with earthly matters, such as preventing major wars (i.e. Cuban missile crisis)?

Have you been able to prevent aging and/or prevent disease?

Is there crime in your civilization?  How is it handled?

Is the string theory correct, and are there multiple earths along with probable lives?

Are thoughts really things?

Question for an alien: what is YOUR view of individuality?

Statement and eventually a question for another alien: billions of years of experience, memory of each incarnation intact, countless masquerades as gods on conquered worlds, flooding those worlds teachings specifically designed for your path, desperately looking for short cuts out of the game -  what's taking you so long to finally commit to the goal your Disks came here for?

Question for cats: how would you describe your relationships with the human becomings?

Question for a caged animal: what is the cage syndrome from your perspective, and why the repeated manouevers?

Question for the chicken: bugs, lizards and small mice. Yuck. Have you considered becoming a veggie, or are you too much of a chicken?

Question for a plant: do you enjoy being eaten as much as some of us enjoy eating your succulent vehicles which in turn nourish our vehicles?

Question for a whale: some humans think you're special. Can you tell them about your speciality?

Question for an owl: what's your relationship with wisdom?

Question for the reporter: what's this let's pretend exercise about?

For aliens, I would probably ask the following:

1. Do you share our curiosity about the nature of reality? If so, what insights have you gained through your perspective?

2. How can humans adjust our scientific models and technology to better our understanding of the universe?

For animals, specifically those in captivity:

1. How can humans help to reverse the damage done to your natural survival ability as a result of your captivity?

2. What effect does captivity have on your pride?

3. Would you give up your easy yet restricted lifestyle for a chance to be a subject to your natural habitat?

I'm seeing some good questions, thanks and keep them coming!

This pretend interview exercise is one of the ways I am gathering material for a new workshop I'm creating.  It will be taught for the first time anywhere on planet Earth during August 2014 in Japan.

Some of the questions folks submit will be used by participants in their "interviews" of nonhuman forms of consciousness, like animals and aliens.

Wow!..Unfortunately, I wont be participating in your new workshop program...But, I wish you every success! I just hope that you'll not financially charge this new program-revelation-workshop, of yours, that is out of the financial reach of most members and lurkers here...Blessings and Love in Christ..Carl

Carl,

Thanks for your kind comments.  I'm looking forward to teaching this new one and observing participants experience and the effects.

BTW, I don't set the price for workshops.  The host does that, setting the price to cover all the expenses and some profit for them.  (Hauling my old carcass from Florida to and from Japan by air is pretty expensive, as well as housing and feeding, venue, etc.)

Some day I hope to teach this new workshop here in the States.  We just need enough folks who have completed the prerequisites, completing my first and second workshops. 

Thanks again, Carl.

Bruce

Bruce, will you be attempting to contact the living or the dead in this workshop? That would affect the nature of any question I might ask.

Seagull,

During the communication exercises in this workshop will be no instructions given regarding "dead or alive". In the first two workshops of my soon to be four-workshop series exploration focuses on human consciousness, and the distinction is made between physically living and nonphysically living. Since the new workshop explores beyond human consciousness, for some of those we may communicate with, they may or may not have the same form of consciousness as we humans. And so to suggest in my instructions they were going to explore and communicate with, say, dead aliens might frontload the participants experience with the expectation that such a division within the alien consciousness exists. By avoiding such frontloading explorers are better equipped to perceive information through fewer belief-based or expectation based assumptions.

Thank you for your question, Seagul,

Bruce

   Would just make a suggestion re: the interview with the space alien.  A little front loading or direction might be wise in so much as saying something like, "you are interviewing an E.T. with positive, holistically helpful intentions to humans". 

  One will get more helpful, more accurate, expanded etc. info.  This might be "pretend" but you know that real connections very well be made.  What you may not know, is that some direct connections would be best left alone.

  Once that's said, here are some questions i would ask: 

  Do you have what we call a physical body? 

  If so,  how do new bodies get created?

  Do you eat any kind of physical food?

  How long, from our perspective, does your kind typically stay connected to one body?   

  If you and your spaceships have a physical aspect or level to them, do you travel super long distances very quickly?

  If so, how does that work, what is the technology behind it? 

   Are you aware of any unfriendly or E.T.'s with limiting/negative intentions towards humanity? 

  If so, are any involved with humanity and earth at this time? 

  If they are, how much and in what ways are they involved with humanity?

  (If so), do any of these have what we would call physical bodies?

  (If so) What do these look like?

  (If so) What are the best/most helpful ways to deal with these?

  (If answers to the affirmative are given, then ask)  Is Rosalind McKights guidance session correct when she saw probable futures and that a probable war could develop after an unfriendly group attacked humanity? 

  If so, what is the probable time line in human A.D. terms at this point?

  If so, are these beings the same as what some call the "reptilians"?

  If so, are there some Reptilian individuals which do have positive and holistically helpful intentions towards humanity and other beings? 

  If so, are these in or out of the body? 


I'll address animals later.  I realize most of my questions are contingent on prior questions, and that they build on each other (and so, theoretically they might not get asked).  However, these latter questions may be some of the most important for humanity to ask and get info about.

  Oh, and if one is to ask such questions, it might be wise to ask for help from the Divine, fully PUL attuned forces to protect and shield the group both during and after these sessions.

   

Hi Bruce,

As you've mentioned, it's best to try to eliminate any beliefs and expectations so when I explore and encounter other beings I'll usually start out asking only one question:

Can you help me understand what your life/world/realm of consciousness is like?

Of course I can only interpret from my own experience base and understanding, but I've had some really interesting experiences doing this.

Kathy

Maybe, to alien, do you have a body?

How do you appear to yourself?

How do you appear to others of your own kind?

What are your surroundings like?

Do you feel emotions such as happy or sad or angry?

Do you laugh? Is anything funny to you?

Do you sleep? Do you dream?

Maybe, to an animal, what is your favorite color?

How do you appear to yourself?

What are your surroundings like?

What is your favorite thing to do?

What do you dream about?

Sort of along the lines of what Kathy wrote.  One of the more helpful methods that I have used to receive information is to make a request/prayer/affirmation intention of, "please bring to my conscious awareness that which would be most helpful for me and/or the Whole to become aware of now."

Not only does it avoid front loading, its the exploring equivalent of one of the highest teachings on the Earth, "Not my will, but the will of Source/purely Creative Forces be done."

I raise an objection to the continuous preaching on this site.  It is a stated objective of at least one person who posts regularly that he views himself as on a mission, and that is clearly not the purpose of this site nor is it allowed. Of course people must speak to their beliefs at times, which is not what I am talking about.

I will leave permenently then.  I have a lot of packing and dehydrating to do anyways.  Fare thee well.

Oh, don't leave in a huff. Just, could you tone it down a little? I won't mention it again.

  I really do have a lot to do, need to get my butt into gear, and shouldn't be wasting my time here posting and reading.  Guess i needed a catalyst to get my butt into gear. 

  Thank you for being a needed catalyst for me.

aChannel,

That's a great statement of intent!  Avoids front loading, states your desire, very good!

There's your front loading.  "Not my will . . . " places a limit on what you allow yourself to believe.  That limit is what you "believe" Source, etc. will allow.  I feel you are negating the first part of your intent statement.  You might experiment with eliminating or changing the second part beginning with "Not my will".

I had to say, "I am willing to perceive in whatever ways are possible" before my perception opened,

Seagull,

The Posting Guidelines allow "missions", what not allowed is basically being inconsiderate, offensive or too rude.  It's message is just, please play nice with others.

I'm sorry to see you're leaving, I am enjoying discussion with you.  Sorry one rude comment drove you away?  Sorry to see you go.

Seagull,

Sometimes the Preachers get on my nerves too, but then I remember I'm ALWAYS preaching too, and just let it slide.

<<Seagull,

Hi Bruce-

The problem is that there's a fine line between preaching and proselytizing.  It's rare to find someone who preaches who is not at the same time interested in others accepting his/her beliefs.  Preaching as an end in itself is no doubt rare among us humans!  And proselytizing is, of course, prohibited by the Guidelines.

I can understand Seagull's annoyance, the seemingly endless posts can be annoying. 

For me, as long as they are placed on the Off Topics forum, no harm no foul.  And in all fairness, most of them were.  Other than taking up some bandwidth, no one is forced to read them or to respond.

R
ps- I personally find the drop-down menus to be much more annoying than the poster!  ;D

I believe it is fine to be passionate about sharing information that is helpful to others; however, one needs to be detached with the results. If people are interested in what you say, great. If not, people will find what they need when they want it.

As I'm sure you know, I've written some things that people didn't appreciate it. I didn't do so with the expectation that the people who took part in the conversation had to accept what I said. I wrote it partly for the sake of what I consider to be true and important, and partly for whoever is interested.

It is fine to be helpful, but we need to understand that people don't need us to save them. Sometimes when within our hearts we truly care for others, we can forget about this important point.

Roger, I appreciate it when you say what you believe about a source such as ACIM. I don't believe it is good to have subjects that can't be discussed.

Hi Bruce!

Since I've had at least a couple experiences that I believe were alien being related, what I'd like to know from an alien is how they travel in the physical world.  I'm very interested in inter-dimensional travel, worm holes, M-theory, anything that could explain how they do it.  Or maybe it's so advanced it's just by pure thought alone.  Also, what can they teach us about their technology and engineering?  That's the kinds of topics I'm always curious about.  I've had too many experiences with not enough explanation to feed my curiosity. 

As for animals, I'm curious how aware they are about psychic communication.  I know animals do this easily, more easily than us humans.  But how aware are they of it?  Also, some people believe that animals have group souls, not individual identities.  What can they tell us about animal souls and their soul plan/evolvement on earth?

:)

What do you do?

Hi Bruce,

One of the first things I would ask an alien, is.

1) Do you have/had a Christ like redeemer on your planet?
2) Do you have a concept of sin, especially original sin.

If they say yes or no to these questions it might be the downfall of all religion on our planet.

Bruce, are you aware that the Roman Catholic Church is already making plans for greeting an alien, and the go as far as to suppose that some planet might not have fallen and become sinful as planet earth has.

Thus while we needed a Christ to save us on our planet , on their world this would not have been necessary because they would be beings without a sinful nature!

Blessings

Alan

Hi,
I would like to interview a dog (-:   Maybe one of your workshop participants can find out from canines ---

Do dogs have special intellects regarding spatial arrangements? When they are playing catch with a ball or frisbee how do they figure the arc of the object so they know where to run to catch it? (Border collies anyway.)
My terrier arranges his toys parallel or perpendicular to each other --what's that about? 
Often he puts this arrangement directly in the path of my husband's wheelchair, then sits back and watches them get run over. Is he studying the dynamics (or is he sadistic) ?

I would borrow and amend a question from Alan (above) -- do dogs have a spiritual guide or angel or spiritual goals?

And (with a nod to BobMoenroe, who earlier brought this up,) do dogs stay with us for food and shelter or out of fondness?

I would ask an alien

what do you think of the human race

what is your opinion of our space probes observing your planet

do you feel space probes are an invasion into your privacy

what's your opinion on human intellect

do you beleive that that the spirit survives death

were you human on this earth plain in a past life

do you belive we are all one..connected with the vast universe

do you believe in the quantum theory

did you build the Egyptian pyramids as I don't believe they were designed or built by human hand

do you walk among us on earth at times observing human behaviour

do you believe in the divine spirit..our loving god

just some questions I would ask an alien if I met one bruce...love juditha x

ello,ello,
   The Alien; Well, I would want to ask can you help us save our planet? Can you help us find another planet? And Will you help us build starships to travel the galaxy.
   As for a dog I would ask how he is? How he would like to live? How can we make his life better. Same with a cat? A orca, How bad is the ocean become since your birth?
