When he said "I'm lonely" I felt that in my soul. So many people aren't on this wavelength and it's tiresome trying to make conversation with people who aren't paying attention to what's happening.

When my son was 3 we were watching a doc where Inuit people were going under the sea ice when the tide was out and collecting food. Before the narrator said anything about food or mussels, my son said “They’re going down there to get mussels.” I didn’t know he even knew that word so I assumed he meant muscles. I was like “yeah they’re gonna get strong hunting down there.” And he said “No, I mean mussels that you eat. They’re gonna fill their buckets up with mussels.” One minute later that’s exactly what they were doing. I looked at him and said “How did you know they were gonna find mussels?” And he said “Cause I’ve done that before. I used to go under the ice too.” I got chills and asked him what he meant by that. And he repeated “I was a man and I would go under the ice and fill my basket with mussels.” I tried to ask more questions but he turned toddler on me and got disinterested and ran away to play lol. I didn’t want to pry because I was afraid I would ask leading questions and make him say something he didn’t mean. He’s never mentioned it again, he’s 8 now and I remember it vividly!

These type of podcasts are why I am here on YouTube. Otherwise this platform would serve no purpose for me. Danny is the shit and this is an epic conversation. Thanks to you both 🙏😊

My cousin told me a story about him being hit by a car when he was younger. He recalls seeing himself in the road with my uncle holding his head together. I'm not religious but this sort of stuff shows we are more than our physical selves

Dr. Ian Stevenson established the Division of Perceptual Studies (DOPS) at UVA Virginia which studies children who remember past lives. They have YouTube videos that talk about their research, it’s fascinating. Also, the book Many Lives Many Masters by Dr Brian Weiss is a mind blowing, relatively quick and easy read written by the chair of Mt Sinai Miami Dept of Psychiatry that explores the therapy sessions he provided for a woman who could vividly remember all of her past lives under hypnosis. I think there were about 10 and she was a man and a woman in mostly really tough life situations and experienced tragic, horrific deaths. All her current life’s irrational fears were being manifested by unresolved trauma from her past lives.

"I think we die into our imaginations" That is the best explanation for the hereafter I have ever heard.

There’s so much we don’t understand about our human experience. This needs at least a second episode.
