#211 P1 – What Is A Soul & Are We All God? Good Vibrations, Meditation, Spirituality & Experiencing Past Lives With Thomas Rochester

This week brings a deep, existential conversation with actor, podcaster and deep-thinker; Thomas Rochester, talking about the concept of the soul & God, before & after death, prophetic dreams and so much more!

This episode is part 1 of the conversation, where Mike & Thomas begin by loosely explaining their theories on life and their respective relationships with religion, before delving deep into existentialism, self-care, the idea that we are all God (& if such a being exists) and Thomas talks about some literature that delves into these sorts of concepts (details below). The duo also discuss meditation, anchor points and more!

Next week is part 2 (but if you want to hear it now, support Mike on Patreon), where the conversation on deep thought continues; Mike & Thomas delve into prophetic dreams and talk about their own experiences, discuss past memories and alternate perspectives. Thomas then talks about communicating with one’s soul and how our physical forms limit certain knowledge which leads into a few of Thomas’ anecdotes. As their conversation draws to a close, the duo discuss how science & spirituality can work in tandem, an anecdote about vibrations and more – these podcasts are definitely for the deep/philosophical thinkers among you!

Thomas mentioned numerous things in this conversation including;

The Source Field Investigations: https://amzn.to/3Q3Dkhf and Synchronicity Key: https://amzn.to/46AzHXm  books by David Wilcock.

Journey Of Souls by Michael Newton PhD: https://amzn.to/3S6RUHK

#116 Pt 2 – Breaking Down Abstract Ideas: The Causation Of Consciousness & The Fountain Of Existence With Jack Thomas

Jack of the Just Conversations podcast returns for part 2 of the deep dive into the concept of good & evil, consciousness, “the fountain of existence”, identity & more – continuing the very abstract discussion!

So for this week’s part, the conversation on consciousness continues but please be advised on a trigger warning, as rape is mentioned as an example during the discussion. For clarity, the rest of their conversation tackles abtract ideas, the equalisation of the universe, how the universe may have started, the causation of consciousness, the “fountain of existence”, free will & determinism, one’s self and more!

In case you missed it, part 1 of their chat started with the “passive apocalypse” and the polarising political system in America before delving into the main conversation topic; the concept of “good & evil”. Mike & Jack discuss whether “good” or “evil” even exist, as well as the historical retelling of events that alter perception, whether or not intent can affect the “goodness” of an action, religion’s impact of the perception of evil, heaven & hell and consciousness!
