It is July 2009 and I feel like I am king of the world. I have four days to play at the summer Outdoor Retailers Show in Salt Lake City Utah, and my birthday is just a few days away. To me being the worlds greatest climbing paparazzi, the OR show is a gift! I am high fiving and hugging and shaking hands with hundreds of incredible climbing superstars from around the world, and checking out the newest climbing gear being created for the following year. I have been to dozens of these shows so I know my way around and know how to get the most out

of the show to add to my museum. For this show the manufacturers were very generous donating suitcases full of climbing affiliated trinkets for the museum. I walked away with over 100 photos signed by super mutant climbers young and old, as I shared smiles and laughs with them at the show. The OR show is a business arena, but it is also filled with climbing superstars and company owners, which is the best for a paparazzi. For this summer 2009 show the museum crew was Neo, Robert, Will, Justin and myself, and wow did we have a lot of fun! We were wined and dined by the manufacturers. There was a night at the movies. There was the Mammut super climbing finals that our friend Sierra was competing in. Also there was the citizens comp that us less mutant climbers could compete in with a chance to place on the podium.

This year super climber Chris Sharma was late to get to the show and missed competing in the Mammut super finals. So Chris attended the citizens comp the following day, not to climb but to be support for the climbers. He ended up hanging out with us as our personal coach throughout the comp. I was totally psyched for his support but at the same time I was somewhat intimidated, so I kept asking him to go hang out with the other climbers at the comp since I was climbing up to only V5 ratings, where Chris has hit V15 ratings. Chris said that there was nobody else he would rather hang out with. I was dressed in zebra tights and face paint, and Robert dressed up as “Jim Carrey - The Mask” from the movie “The Mask.” As the comp finished we ended up placing on the podium and Chris gave us a standing ovation in the crowd. It was just amazing!!! Once the show was over, Robert, Will and

I stayed one extra day in Utah to climb some well known boulder problems in Little Cottonwood Canyon. From running around for four days at the show, I was just about out of energy but still really psyched to climb. I was somewhat dehydrated and the day was warm and humid so we mostly climbed in the shade. So climb climb climb and then came the last climb of the day. A easy boulder problem named Double Dyno. I climbed the boulder problem and it was simple and a lot of fun. But then I climbed the boulder problem again and then my world completely turned upside-down. My hands slipped off of the second hold and I fell only five feet to the ground landing into a leaf pile. I remember Robert immediately being there to help me back onto my feet and that is where I discovered that my right leg femur bone was broken in many places.

I wrote a more extensive story of the accident on Mountain Project, which I supplied the link to. For the Mountain Project story I purposely did not include the spiritual visions that I was receiving, but it does go into full detail of the accident. I was afraid that people would think I was crazy, and at that time I was not strong enough to back the truth of what really happened. The first intensity was not necessarily me breaking my leg, but the paramedics telling me that they will not move me until my two feet are equal to each other. Without the femur bone in place, my knee was now located up near my hip. So after six shots of morphine, the paramedics used a come-a-long device and stretched my broken leg to be equal in length with my good leg. I have never screamed so loud in my life. I feel like my screaming woke up all of Utah. Props to Robert and Will being there witnessing the situation! Once I got to the hospital I was given even more morphine and I was basically passed out. The surgery was scheduled for very early the next morning. Robert and Will already had tickets for a early airplane flight back to AZ that morning, so now basically I was all alone in the hospital in Utah.

This next thing that happened is what changed my path of life completely. The spirit world stepped in and took the drivers seat of the Marty vehicle. Even to this day the spirit world is still driving the Marty vehicle. Freedom of choice is a gift that God gives to every human on this earth. But when God personally steps in to the story and starts offering enlightenment to add to a individual, a enlightenment that only God can give, it shows that the story is not set in its entirety, but can be changed while the “Life” movie is already playing. Over the next many years yes I have to do the work, but it is to receive the items I already know that I am to receive. As Glenn mentioned about listening through your inner ears, I will say that once the inner ears can hear, the truth of what this earth is, is not what the mind is making you believe it is.

The surgery was performed by two ice climbers who are some of the best femur doctors in the country. When I talked to the doctors they both had climbed the boulder problem that I had fallen off of. They mentioned that it does not make sense of how little of a fall I took which created that much damage to the hardest bone to break in the human body. It was written that it was a act of God that did this damage. Listed as “Unexplainable.” As I was in the process of waking up from the surgery, I became conscious that I was in a bed and was moving upward in a tall corridor and was being moved into the center of a beautiful and colorful sphere of eyeball looking objects. A man made of yellow, orange and red (mostly orange) tiny atoms was bringing me into the sphere staying at my side the whole time. He leaned over to me and said that he will be with me the rest of my life. The atoms were so fine that even though I couldn’t see skin on his body, I could see his hair and eyebrows and he looked exactly like a human figure. I was in a laying position and was completely see-through, except I could see my veins and organs. It was like my skin had become clear.

For a moment I was distracted by the hospital male nurse that was walking toward my bed and was in the process of waking me up. He would get within eight feet of me and I would shout at him for him to stop and go away. I told him that “I WAS WITH MY GUARDIAN ANGEL.” My eyes were completely closed but I could see and be in these two places at the same time. I could see perfectly everything in the recovery room while having my eyes closed. So he walked away and gave me more time. He tried to wake me a few times but each time I told him to go away, still seeing him while my eyes were completely closed. In the sphere I could feel a great force of energy. I was told by the orange spirit, ”MARTY, THIS IS THE PLACE WHERE YOU CAN CHANGE ANYTHING ABOUT YOURSELF.” So I reached up with my right arm and moved one eyeball looking object to one place. Then reached up and moved a second eye ball looking object to another place. It was like I totally knew what I was doing!!! I also noticed that the eyeballs all appear like they are the same distance from the center point of the sphere to each eye. But as I reached for the second eye it seemed like it was miles more outward than the previous eye object that I moved. Like 200 miles in distance. I reached up and moved a third eyeball looking object but then gasped, “THAT’S ENOUGH, ITS JUST TOO POWERFUL.” What do the three moved items represent? I believe one is about a reduction of FEAR. Another is about me HAVING spirituality in my life. Maybe for this Marty story I was preset to not be interested in Spirituality. The third item I am not sure about, but I do know that now I have unlimited LOVE that is within me. I laid there in total awe staring at the glowing sphere and the orange spirit which continued to look over me. My energy began to suddenly drain out of my body rapidly, and I awoke with my eyes now being open in the recovery room and said hello to the recovery room nurse. This sphere vision felt like it was more than just a dream. “IT FELT VERY SPIRITUAL AND VERY REAL!” I can remember every moment of it to this day.
I was in the University Of Utah Hospital. The rooms were set up so two patients would be sharing each room. For the first day I was taken off of the morphine drip and they started giving me Percocet pills for the pain. The other patient that was in the room I was having conversations with. So I got in contact with my sister who is a nurse and asked her like how many pills should I be taking etc, which the answer was if I felt pain, take the pill. But the amount of pills the hospital wanted to give me was three times the amount my sister suggested to me. So I only took three Percocet pills per day. I mention this because my roommate patient friend was picked up by his family and then I had the room completely to myself. I was not drugged out and was very awake and conscious. But I became very aware that somebody was still in the room and started talking to me. The talking was just as loud as my roommate was talking to me. I was looking around figuring that the talking I was hearing must be from a nearby room or a TV or something. I asked the nurse about it and she said that I was the only person on the entire floor at the time. Eventually I replied aloud in the room, Is this God who is talking to me? It was totally wild that there was absolutely nobody visible there, but somebody was totally there!!! I was being told that everything is okay, you will get through this, also having conversations about life etc. Its was bizarre!!! Quickly I accepted that I possibly was gifted with a Guide. Glenn talks clearly to five Guides, and this must be what it actually is like to have a Guide. Interesting! I concluded that this must be the orange atom person that I communicated with. This Guide would not tell me his name, so I called him Teacher.
I asked the nurse for some paper and a pen or pencil to write with. The first thing I drew was a image of what me being in the eyeball sphere looked like, then I went back to talking to Teacher. I asked if I was going to walk again. Teacher replied saying, “WE ARE GOING TO MAKE SOME MOVIES.” I found that answer to be very odd especially since I did not even own a camera. So I asked again if I was going to be able to walk again. Teacher said to not worry about that and “LET’S GET ON WITH MAKING THE MOVIES.” I suddenly felt inspired about the possibility of me creating a movie, so I started writing ideas of short silly skits where my friends and I would be the actors within the subject of rock climbing. It suddenly was a lot of fun and I was laughing a lot from the silly ideas I was
|
coming up with. This sudden change occupied my mind and took my thoughts away from the fear I should have been experiencing while laying in the hospital with a new broken leg. Then the recovery room nurse entered my room and asked how I was feeling. We got into a fun conversation, then we started talking about the visions I was having while he was attempting to wake me up. I said to him that “SINCE YOU DO THIS FOR A LIVING, YOU MUST EXPERIENCE THIS ALL OF THE TIME.” He replied back to me, “THIS WAS A FIRST FOR ME, YOU WERE TOTALLY TRIPPING MAN!” It was really cool to see how interested he was with my visions. He then said that he was glad that I was okay and he left the room.

I was in the hospital for seven days total. The third day in the hospital was my birthday so the nurses surprised me with a cake in celebration. It was really cool. But over the next few days I began to notice that I could not lock myself in on having a common figure to rely on. The hospital was a university school where every day I had different staff people watching over me. I just went from being at the OR show where I personally knew over a thousand people there, into a bad leg breaking situation where suddenly everybody, I mean everybody was a complete stranger. I could feel that my mind wanted to travel into darkness but each time that was about to happen, Teacher started talking to me assuring me that all is totally fine. My focus became an act of gathering strength so I could create enough energy for myself to get back home in Arizona. Each day the nurses would attempt to get me onto crutches for a short time giving me a challenge to at least walk over to the door, and then down the hallway etc. But every time I was brought into the upright position I felt totally green and dizzy and wanted to puke my guts out. I quickly realized that me getting back home was not going to be a easy task. It was going to totally suck.
On day five in the hospital, a climbing gear collector friend that lived in Salt Lake City totally surprised me with a visit to see how I was doing. It was Brian and he brought along a historic Chouinard ice axe for me to check out. On the ice axe wood handle was a signature from Tom Frost. Brian to me was like a angel at that moment!!! Seeing him gave me a energy surge to force myself no matter what to get onto my feet so I could get home. Thanks Brian!!! Meanwhile in Arizona, Robert was arranging plans with everybody from the Phoenix Rock Gym where I worked, with Randi who now was watching over the kids while I was away, talking to my parents and everybody.

Big HUG Robert!!! I felt like Hannibal Smith with the A-Team saying, “I love it when a plan comes together!” In the evening of my hospital stay being day 6, I asked the nurse for some more paper so I could continue writing. She came back saying that all she could find was blank typing paper which was totally great with me. So Teacher said, “MAYBE YOU CAN HELP YOUR FRIENDS OUT WITH STUFF.” I took the paper and thought of a friends name, and then was writing notes to help them with direction in their present life. It was like I didn’t even have to think, the pen would just write. Once I filled a few pages with writings the nurse walked into my room and asked, “What are you doing?” I told her that I was writing cool notes to my friends. She then said that, “How are you doing that?” “IT IS 2:00 IN THE MORNING AND THE ROOM IS COMPLETELY DARK.” The nurse turned on the light and I was in a upright sitting position staring forward with tears running down my face and my shirt that I was wearing was soaked from the tears. I wasn’t even blinking, but just staring forward and the pen was moving across the paper as it was writing. We both looked at the paper and the writing was perfectly written like there were lines to follow on the paper. There were no scribbled out mistakes or anything. The nurse then helped me change my wet shirt to a dry shirt, and then asked me to get some sleep since I was heading back to Arizona in the morning.

The morning came and I was already very concerned on me having the strength to get home. The taxi cab driver was getting upset since the hospital was slow at discharging me, and the time it was going to take to get me to the airport so I could be on the plane was running thin. It was a fiasco! The taxi driver called the airport while we were in route and there was a wheelchair in place ready to take me to the plane. The airport was packed and I was suddenly sitting in within of hundreds of people moving around as they waited to get onto the plane. I was feeling very green seeing all of this movement and feeling like a sardine that was crammed tightly into a can. I could also feel all of the negative energy from the crowd who were anxious to be on the plane. A seat in the very front isle of the plane was saved for me and it was the window seat, Thank You God!!!! But when I went to get onto the plane the stewardesses and even the plane captain backed away from me and did not assist me to get onto the plane. They all said that it was a liability issue and I was not to be touched. That totally sucked since I had to grab the plane walls and seat handles and shuffle myself somehow to get into my seat. My next major problem was that in the hospital I was laying flat and now I had to let my broken leg somehow hang down to the floor. I just wanted to puke my guts out big time. It really was a suckie situation. I asked the stewardess for some blankets or a pillow that I could use to support my leg with so it wasn’t just dangling down from the seat, and they once again couldn’t help me. What saved me was a stuffed animal that my kids purchased via a phone call to the hospital, and gave me as a gift while I was in the hospital. I supported my leg using the stuffed animal under my foot.

The plane trip only took one and a half hours, but it was the longest one and a half hours of my life. I kept my eyes closed the entire trip chanting to God to give me strength not to suddenly puke my guts out. I was really green! The plane landed and a airport worker that had a wheelchair waiting for me entered the plane and helped me to the wheelchair. This guy was a total angel and I tipped him greatly. I made it to Arizona!!! Outside of the airport Michelle from the rock gym was waiting for me with her car running. When I arrived to my house, Dief the owner of the rock gym was prepping my house so I could get around and even had a wheelchair for me to use. Randi was there with the kids and they were filling the pantry with food and coming up with a schedule of where do we go from here. I was so thrilled to be so well taken care of by so many friends.

Michelle stayed with me for a few days, then Sandy (Marty’s Angel) helped me for a few days, then my mom and dad arrived and stayed with me for two weeks. During this time I kept seeing the vision of the eyeball sphere, and could clearly hear Teachers voice, but now I could hear many other voices as well. It was really freaking me out!!! I called Glenn and the first thing I said to him was for him to get out of my head. Glenn answered back, “WHY DO YOU BELIEVE THAT IT IS ME WHO IS TALKING TO YOU?” I answered saying because he is the only person that I knew that was truly talking to the other side. Glenn was thrilled that I was seeing this great eyeball sphere vision. He said that he only knew it as Marty’s Love. The sphere was part of Marty. My mind had to get used to the sphere being real so my mind eventually concluded that the sphere was not just settings in this one present Marty story, but actually settings of Marty entirely. Settings of thousands of my lifetimes. Glenn came to my house and the first thing he said to me in the front doorway was “WOW, YOU HAVE A NEW GUIDE! Glenn then visited my house a few times talking to Randi and my kids and my mom and dad. My dad especially thought Glenn was some kind of magician or something where he told stuff to my dad of my dads past and my dads future. My dad took me to the side and said,” I don’t know how Glenn does what he does, but think first before he starts selling you something. I replied to my dad that Glenn didn’t want anything from me. He truly was my earth coach.

Every morning I sat in the wheelchair with my eyes flowing in tears as I looked out of the front door at the sun that was touching my front yard. I wondered if I was going to be able to walk again. I contemplated the question of, “IS THIS WHAT A PERSON HAS TO GO THROUGH TO HEAR GODS WORDS?” This leg break was deemed a act of God by the doctors. Did God really plan this so I could be completely shut down in my life, which gave me nothing but time to have a conversation with God? I started asking myself “WHAT AM I SEARCHING FOR?” This was a big question that popped up constantly in my soul. Why was I even needing to talk to God? Who is God to me anyways? Sure I can say that there possibly is a God, I mean so many other people believe in God, but what makes them believe in God? Is it Hope alone that makes people Hope there is a God so this makes a person feel better about life? Believing there is a God gives a person energy to continue on so why not believe there is a God? For me the thing that I really needed in my life is for me to truly believe that God definitely exists. I feel like all of my life I was put into situations that gave me the impression that God does exist, and put into situations that God doesn’t exist. I want to know God is there at all times regardless if something feels good or feels bad. I do not need people to convince me that God exists. I need you God! “I NEED YOU GOD TO BE IN MY LIFE AND I DON’T KNOW HOW TO FIND YOU.”

My friends stopped at my house and checked up on me to say hello which was awesome. The friends that I wrote the hospital notes to I had them read and many of them stated, how did you know that? The writings were all written in a very unique way. The written note to Robert’s wife Simona said, “You have the voice of a angel, let the world hear your song.” At that time Simona was producing a CD with many of her songs that she was having second thoughts on finalizing. All I knew of Simona is that she sung the Star Spangled Banner at our 2009 climbing comp at the rock gym. Robert was having trouble finding a new job and had over one hundred resumes sent with no acceptance, and Robert was getting frustrated. Robert’s written note said, “Robert is fisherman but reluctant to change his position.” “The streams water has already run dry and Robert remains with his fishing line cast into the dry mud.” “Best to move downstream like the others already have.” Robert sent out a reworded resume and was accepted for a job within the week. I don’t believe I had anything to do with Robert suddenly getting a new job. Nevertheless it was coincidental. After all of my friends read the notes on the hospital pages, I got rid of the notes. I figured the written words were for them and nobody else so there was no need to keep them.

Glenn visited me at my house and mentioned that he would like to use me as a guinea pig. He said that he was practicing healing touch and wanted to try it on me. I was totally intrigued by the whole process so I said “Yes” aloud and with a big smile. Afterwards I wrote about the experience which I added a link to. While Glenn was with me I asked him about how do I find God. Glenn mentioned that the quest I was about to begin is a personal quest which he could not answer for me. But he did mention that for him he started with the church and went from there. He included that after years of personal reverence he gave to the church, he was honestly no happier than when he first started. But the path before me was mine to figure out. Glenn brought along with him another copy of his Awakening book since I told him with regret, that I never even opened the cover of the first book he gave me. He laughed and thought no big deal of it but also included that there may be a few answers in his book that will help me with my quest. Glenn took a sharpie marker and wrote on the cover of the book, “Marty’s Route.” Which Marty "(P)" perceives it is difficult like 5.12, but in "(R)" reality it is more easy like rating 5.5. Glenn used the climbing ratings since he knew I was very aware of the meaning within the rating scale of difficulties. Glenn also presented me with a refrigerator magnet that is titled, “Right Now I Feel….” The magnet has four columns of single word feelings and has a secondary magnet that has a open box within it. The magnet set is to assist a person on understanding the true essence of the feeling that a person is going through at the time in their life. As Glenn

So I didn’t waste any time and I sat at the front kitchen table with my parents and talked in honesty about feelings I had with my early childhood life all the way up to present. No matter what pain it would cause, I told them the reasons why I went into the direction I did in my life. I will say that my dads escalated voice was dominating the room. I believe the words “How dare you” were used a few times in that domination. After the talk there was a immediate change. My parents and I now knew each other and love filled our relationship. I was the kid that left home directly after high school and took the hard road of pride. I saw my parents only once a year and rarely called them. After this conversation happened, I now talked to my parents probably twice a week…..for years!!! Looking back at this I wish I had this talk with my parents when I was 18. My parents did no wrong to me and wanted me to have the best I could in life. To me however it felt like they were forming me to become what they wanted out of me, but my soul was wild and wanted to get going in life and experience everything. So off into the world I went!
Previous to the leg breaking accident I was going full speed in life. I can’t believe how much I was carrying on my shoulders each day. Raising two kids in a divorce schedule, having a full time job, owning a climbing store that had $75,000 in product within it besides employees etc, developing climbing routes in the mountains and writing guides to be sold in stores, owning and building my house, girlfriends…..OMG!!!!!!! I don’t know where I ever had time to sleep. Earth provides so many opportunities to chase after and I felt like I was trying to keep up with all of the demands that were being thrown at me. I for sure didn’t have time for God, and my mind did a great job of keeping me in blinders in case faith was ever offered to me. The mind is a necessary tool, but at the same time it can be the devil!
Physical therapy started and that kept me busy and kept me moving on a forward path of healing. Even in the process of getting to and from Physical Therapy, helpers suddenly were available and I never missed a session. Sandy continued to be there for me and also Erica! My friend Jeremy lined me up with a Physical Therapist named Vincent. Wow Vincent kept pushing me to the limit and I will admit that physical therapy was not fun at all, but many props to Vincent for making me a stronger climber than I ever was before. I wrote this about the therapy August 2009: “Therapy started 19 days after the surgery and I am amazed at how strong my leg actually was. I was babying the leg through the pain, and the Physical Therapist wasted no time bending my leg around past the point of my personal fear and pain. On my first visit to the therapist I felt I needed a stretcher to get me back to my ride home. I am going to

therapy three times a week and I enjoy it in a sadistic way I guess. "How are you doing?” “Get on the table, owie, owie, owie, damn! ouch, okay you are done for the day..........heres the money..........see you tomorrow." Interesting process paying for pain, but I like the results!” It was a Blessing to be with Vincent since he was just beginning his business and I had his assistance since not many other patients were present. Months later Vincent became very busy assisting other patients during my sessions. At the end of the therapy Vincent told me that he was impressed of how I forced myself to fully complete the individual tasks that he presented to me. So far no other patient that he was helping pushed themselves with the want to heal as much as I showed him. The last day of therapy I brought along devil horns and had Vincent wear them for a fun photo.

Also at this time the climbing community created a few fund raiser events for me to raise monies to help with my house bills etc. The first event was at Climbmax Gym which was a Marty fund raising event followed by a slide show presented by Jim Waugh. Nick with Klimb Clothing created a bunch of fun “Marty K is Broke-N’ t-shirts for the event. The second event Robert organized which was at the Phoenix Rock Gym named “Climb For Karabin.” For me it was really exciting to be back amongst friends and also being further along in the healing process. Big thanks once again to the climbing community for helping me!!!

My first task for my new quest was to reorganize many items I was already involved with, starting with my climbing store. The recession of 2008 made owning a small business next to impossible, especially since the business was being run on credit cards. Pre 2008 I could easily manage the credit card debt. But after the recession started the credit card companies capped off the limits to their cards since people couldn’t keep up with paying off their increased debt. My credit cards shot from 8.9% to 22% just overnight. On top of that I did not have health insurance and the hospital charged me the absolute top limit they could for my seven day stay. I used the climbing store credit cards to keep up with with the hospital billing until it drained me down to zero, and then I was forced into bankruptcy. I placed Glenn’s second book on my bookshelf and still did not even open the front cover. It was not time yet to start the new when the old was still over toppling me. AZ Cliff Hanger, my climbing store, closed in June 2010. My first feeling I had with this was….relief! Yes relief! Even as I went through the bankruptcy I was totally calm. It was very noticeable how I never felt like I had failed, and everything was only a experience. Maybe Teacher was having something to do with this but I was completely calm and lost no sleep at night. I felt a great shift happening with me.

Once the store had closed and the bankruptcy was completed I sat down and began to read Glenn’s book. I was unaware that the book was a workbook that personal tasks had to be completed before continuing on with the book. I wanted to be with Glenn’s book being absolutely honest with myself and I cringed when I reached certain pages that stopped the forward reading until I completed my tasks. For example: one task was to contact all of my past girlfriends to make sure I caused them no hurt in their life. It took me over a year to complete Glenn’s book. After I completed it I really learned a lot about myself and was carrying less mental weight that I carried through most of my life. It felt like I took off a backpack full of bricks that I no longer had to carry. I didn’t have to remember any lies that I created that through personal perception made my identity shine that much greater. And then going forward in life it gave me a foundation on how to remain in balance. Fantastic book Glenn!!! Of course once I completed the book I was hoping that Glenn included within it a secret of life wordage or something, but he did not. Maybe my ego felt like I did good so I was to receive a pet treat or something for being good. Big laugh!!!

I mentioned to Glenn that I always felt like one of my relatives was my guide always watching over me but never speaking. He is my Fathers father named Michael. Glenn in this story did mention that I have a new guide, which is the orange atom Teacher, but that did not mean that the new guide is my first guide. Now that the spirit world is inviting me to see, Michael appears to be blue in color and is rather tall in the spirit world. When he was here on earth he was rather short in height. Michael still remains silent but I have a more growing sense that he is with me. My quest continues and I still seek to have a personal meeting with the creator. It is great to have a guide that speaks, but to me that is not fulfilling my need to be with God. Now the homework begins through a desperate search of finding portals that lead directly to God which are here on earth, and are mentioned in the Bible and in other great writings as well. The eyeball sphere still drives me and seeks an answer of what it is.
