The story is about a woman, named Lindy, who goes to a tarot reader (which I’ve often done and am familiar with tarot cards). Anyway, Lindy is going to Madame LeFarr because she’s in love with a married man, named Daniel and wants to know if he’ll leave his wife, etc. At one point in my life, I, too was in love with a married man named Daniel…and wondered the same thing. Madame LeFarr tells Lindy that she and Daniel had a past life during the Civil War, and lived in Maryland – I thought that too, (before I’d read the book) that (current ) Daniel and I were together during the Civil War, in a border state, probably Maryland. In the story, Daniel goes off to the War and Lindy (or whatever her name was in that life) cheats on him (and I think I even know who I cheated on him with…someone who I had a relationship with in this life) It all has a sort of Gone with the Wind Vibe – me as Scarlett O Hara, Daniel as Ashley Wilkes, and RC (a former boyfriend) as Rhett Butler. Anyway, in this current life, I think the karma has worked itself out … Daniel and I were married in that Civil War life; I cheated on him and he could never understand that or forgive me. In this life, he’s married to someone else and cheated on her! (with me) and so now he’s more able to understand that previous life/my cheating on him. When I read the story in HEART MAGIC I kept thinking it was ME that Dick Sutphen was writing about … somehow he tapped into my life, past and present.” Is there any deeper reason for the seeming coincidences here?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Non-Local Consciousness203 views0 answers0 votesDale Carnegie wrote the multi-million bestseller, How to Win Friends and Influence People. Advocates would say that Carnegie taught a method of manipulating people that created “win-win” scenarios, where both the manipulated and manipulators benefited. The detractors would say Carnegie’s methods can be used to screw people. Any kind of indirect manipulation is problematic, as it arguably violates free will, especially if used to encourage “uninformed” decisions. Hypnotist and Researcher Dick Sutphen wrote of Carnegie in his book, Radical Spirituality, “The Carnegie Course teaches you to say what will work to get what you want. Isn’t that being phony or a hypocrite? Forget sincerity, forget honesty. Forget being real. Carnegie teaches you to be a diplomat and wear a mask. Masks are the fear that who and what you are isn’t adequate, so you pretend to be somebody else.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance216 views0 answers0 votesSutphen, additionally, said this about Carnegie techniques, “If you use Carnegie techniques to win friends, the friendship has to be based upon a two-way manipulation. You pretend to be the mask to attain friendship and they will be your friend as long as you wear it. What happens when your mask slips and they find out who you really are? Do you need any relationship or association so badly that you’re willing to repress your real self in order to attain it?” Many would answer YES – they have a mortgage to pay, and must wear the mask in order to stay employed. Sutphen was an independent businessman and had more freedom in that regard.

His wife never learned of it and was still ignorant of it when he sought Frankl’s advice. Dr. Frankl implored him NOT to tell her. His reason for doing so was because he believed that the man truly loved his wife and had no desire to traumatize her. Based on what he knew of the man’s wife, he was convinced that there was little to no chance of the wife receiving the news without drawing the false conclusion that he did not love her, and consequently would not be able to forgive him. So he attempted to coach the man, that telling her the truth, would be akin to lying, for it would encourage her to believe a lie—that her husband did not ever love her. The man ignored Frankl’s advice, and the result was an ugly divorce with both parties deeply emotionally traumatized. Was Frankl right?

Number 50 was, “Refuse to make choice based upon the expectations of others. Instead, act in ways consistent with your purpose.” Out of the 69 reminders, this one, if followed uncritically, could cause a great deal of trouble for a person in this world. Sometimes, not telling someone, like an authority figure, what they want or expect to hear, could be quite problematic. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance216 views0 answers0 votesThe questions for this show are derived from the life and work of the late hypnotist and prolific metaphysical author Dick Sutphen. Sutphen’s last book published in 2019, one year before his death at age 83, was titled Wisdom Erases Karma. There is no doubt that if Sutphen were to sum up his storied life in just three words, they would be “Wisdom Erases Karma.” These words were engraved on this tombstone, and the final sentence of his final book reads, “From my early days, I recognized that my life was about finding the wisdom to erase my karma.” What is Creator’s perspective on the phrase “Wisdom Erases Karma?”ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma211 views0 answers0 votesSutphen’s last wife before he died, Roberta Sutphen, is a gifted psychic medium. Like many gifted psychics, Roberta can communicate with her spirit guides readily. One day Roberta was frustrated and asked her principal guide, Lily, why she seems to get instant karma while some people they knew seemed to face no consequences at all? Lily told her there is a group of people who do not abide by the Law of Karma as we know it. … that there are two types of karma: those on the Karmic Wheel of Love and those on the Karmic Wheel of Fear. The laws are completely opposite. Every thought, intent, and desire for those on the Karmic Wheel of Love comes from God and shine in the light—the opposite is true for the Wheel of Fear. People on the Karmic Wheel of Fear are a collective mass that are earthbound and controlled by the Kingdom of Darkness. Can Creator tell us if this is true? Are there “two types of karma?”ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma221 views0 answers0 votesSutphen wrote more about Roberta’s guide’s response, ” … (people on the Karmic Wheel of Fear) are the psychopaths, sociopaths and narcissists in your life … They are not individuals.” Dick Sutphen asked, “What does that mean?” Roberta’s guide, Lily, responded, “They don’t reincarnate like we do. They don’t go through the Pre Birth Planning. You might think you are incarnating with the same dark soul, but they are not souls. The individual you think you are going another round with will have the same energetic make-up, but they are not individuals and cannot reincarnate.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma241 views0 answers0 votesSutphen wrote yet more of Roberta’s guide’s response, “We were both curious about how dark souls end up on Earth. Lily said the Kingdom of Darkness believes they control birth and death of the mass, but that’s not entirely true. There is a group called the Master Architects of Reincarnation. Think of these Architects as Air Traffic Controllers. Their work is vital. There’s almost as many of them surrounding the Earth as there are humans. They only interact with spirits, such as your guides and masters. They are in control of the Earth’s balance, or karma, and help direct pre-destined events.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma230 views0 answers0 votesSutphen came up with five basic categories of Karma. 1. Balancing Karma, which is mechanical cause and effect, such as not being able to conceive a child because of child neglect in a past life. 2. Physical Karma, which is the misuse of a body in one life, so the appropriate affliction is created in a later life, such as being overweight because of starvation in a previous life. 3. False Fear Karma is from a traumatic past-life incident that generates fear that is no longer valid in the current context of your current life. 4. False Guilt Karma from taking on responsibility or blame for a past-life incident for which you are truly blameless. 5. Developed Ability or Awareness Karma, such as musical talent. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma213 views0 answers0 votesSutphen was convinced there was a Universal Law: The Law of Fearful Confrontation, “If you fear doing something, and yet have the courage to do it anyway, you will soon do a mental flip-flop and may even become addicted to doing it.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma232 views0 answers0 votesSutphen wrote about hypnotizing a woman with fibromyalgia which caused constant physical pain. He directed her back to the real cause of her pain. She began to describe her hard life as a Christian nun. She resided in a tiny cell and suffered physically. She said, “Christ suffered for us, so we must suffer for him as well.” She then said under hypnosis, “The physical pain began about the time I decided to devote my current hypnosis practice to Christ Consciousness work.” Sutphen explains, “Somehow her unconscious mind ‘connected’ the past-life suffering for Christ to a need to suffer doing similar work today.” Sutphen directed her to release the pain and she was fully recovered upon awakening. Can Creator comment on this?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma232 views0 answers0 votesA friend of mine in the 1980s told me she had learned that Sutphen was kidnapped by federal authorities and flown to an east coast facility for interrogation. They asked him what he thought he was doing, and he said, “Teaching people how to think.” They told him to stop if he knew what was good for him. “We think for them,” he was reputedly told. In his last book, Sutphen said this only, “My heroes were all willing to speak out and act in response to what they believed. They have certainly influenced the way I communicate. They got me into trouble with the establishment on many occasions.” Was he hinting about what my friend shared with me? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma202 views0 answers0 votesSutphen’s last book, his memoir of 80 years, was in fact a summation of every important lesson that he learned in his highly adventurous and creative life. He helped millions of people and certainly earned more good karma than bad. That said, the one thing notably missing from his impressive collection of “lessons learned,” was the concept of “partnership with the divine and Creator.” There were hints here and there of prayer practice, but it appeared more hit and miss, and certainly did not rise to any kind of prominence in his many decades as a noted spiritual teacher and role model. How could he, and so many other advanced souls like him, have not been able to embrace this most important insight?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma193 views0 answers0 votesBoth Sutphen and his good friend, Richard Bach, author of the 1970s surprise bestseller, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, had their life savings and even copyrights on all their intellectual property stolen from them. The two thefts were not otherwise related. Both were left absolutely destitute. Bach’s manager stole his, and in 2011 some hacker drained Sutphen’s bank accounts, transferred his copyrights, and wiped out all the master copies of his life’s work. It took three years of lawsuits just to get his copyrights back, but everything else was gone. Can Creator share if Empowered Prayer and/or the Lightworker Healing Protocol could have prevented these evil attacks and tragedy that neither man fully recovered from?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma203 views0 answers0 votes
