MISC. QUESTIONS & ANSWERS Channeled from Michael by Shepherd Hoodwin
March, 1998
Q. Shepherd wrote, "A body can actually exist for a time with no soul, like a car idling. However, after a while, it will die if no soul takes it."
I've heard this before. Can you give an approximate time frame? Are we talking hours, days, weeks, months?
A. A body can live for several weeks without a soul residing in it provided that the body is well cared for. However, for this to occur, there must be souls sending the body energy. This can be from a loving person; however, usually there are discarnate souls involved who are keeping the engine running, so to speak, while a soul is lined up to come in. In the case of a severely damaged body that no soul wishes to inhabit, once those around it lose interest, it will die in a couple days.
Q. I noticed that in the sample chapter "Working with Spirit Guides" in the upcoming book Growing Through Joy, there is no mention of the fact that one's essence twin is often the primary spirit guide when the essence twin is discarnate. Was that an oversight?
A. No, because the essence twin relationship is usually different from that of spirit guide. It is more intimate, almost a shared experience of the body. In rare cases the essence twin stays separate enough to be a guide, who must be an objective "coach."
Q. When the multiple manifestations of the Infinite Soul occur, will they all be from one plane or from multiple planes? Which one(s)?
A. We expect that there will be representations of each of the three high planes in the next manifestation.
Q. In Michael's People is the quote:
"As the Infinite Soul, being the embodiment of seven, displaces only final-level Old Kings..."
In Michael's Cast of Characters, Emily Baumbach reports that Buddha was a Priest. Can you clarify?
A. The man Buddha, before the manifestation, was a king but with strong priest essence twin bleedthrough and casting.
Q. What effects, if any, do earthquakes and underwater volcanoes have on cetaceans?
A. Not much, really. They find them entertaining, similar to the way you find shooting stars entertaining.
