The Cleansing Flame

The Cleansing Flame and Deliberateness

The cleansing flame is a reference to the idea of the deep emotionality that many of you feel many times which manifests as anger.

your anger can be used in a positive way as a cleansing flame to align you, to orient you, to strengthen you, and allow you to begin to learn to act with true deliberateness in your life. For this is a very strong key and a critical key in terms of creating the realities that you want, the realities that you prefer.

The act of deliberateness utilizing this cleansing flame is to allow you the opportunity to see where you stand relative to all the different kinds of events, all the different kinds of realities that you perceive all around you in your daily life, your daily world, your daily civilizational experiences. These ideas, these perspectives… you’re seeing what other people are doing, you relating to them, you deciding from what you see in them as to who you are, what you are. And sometimes most importantly, in seeing what they are, seeing what you are not, can help you really align the idea of deliberateness in your life to truly act out—as we discussed last week of your time—truly act out the reality that you prefer to be.

We cannot in your terminology stress enough the whole notion, as we discussed last week of your time, of acting out your imagination, acting out your dreams physically. Physicalizing, acting out, setting up the props, creating a physical picture, seeing yourself in that reality, setting up the props, going through the motions, playing it out, saying the lines, doing the part, acting it out to really lock in the physical reality, to acquire the new habitual rituals that are more representative of the realities you prefer. This acting out is critical to allow you to take your imagination, your non-physical imagination, and truly physicalize it—as you say—bring it down to earth, to lock it in to your neurological system so that you now act differently than you used to. So that in acting differently you will attract different things, things that are more representative of the new you that you prefer to be rather than the old you you no longer prefer to be.

This is a true physics equation, a true mechanical act, and it is something that will allow you to really transform from one style of living to another style of living. And in changing that attitude, in changing that approach, you change everything you experience in life. Because as we have said many times, all circumstances and situations come into your life fundamentally neutral and can go either way, positive or negative, depending upon the type of person you create yourself to be. Utterly determines the type of effect you get out of those neutral situations and circumstances that you attract in your life.

The cleansing flame, the act of alignment, the act of self-awareness, self-recognition… who you are, what you prefer to be. Sometimes because your society has been used to exhibiting its emotionality in negative terms, that does not mean you cannot turn it around in a very simple way, in a very easy way, and allow it to work for you in a positive sense. You do not have to feel victimized by your negative emotions. You can turn them around. They are in that sense also simply props. They are only reactions to things you believe to be true. That is what emotions are: reactions to things you already buy into, definitions you have bought into for your entire lifespan, and sometimes for many lifespans.

You can use your emotions. If you find them coming up in a negative way, you can still use them. You can give them vent, you can give them free reign—not in a way that damages you, not in a way that damages other individuals—but in a truly creative way. As a brush, as an artistic implement, as a device to paint the picture you truly desire. To burn with conviction, to burn with resolution, to burn with deliberateness, and see very clearly in your mind’s eye, in your imagination, the you you prefer to be.

If you find yourself in circumstances and situations in your life where you feel angry that you do not have what you really believe you deserve to have, use that anger. Clarify yourself with it. Let it burn through you. Allow yourself to take that anger and allow yourself perhaps in what you may call a remote location, so you may not perhaps disturb other individuals, yell it out at the top of your lungs. Give voice, give vent. It is similar to the idea of acting out your dreams. Take it and give it voice. Stand on a cliff top perhaps overlooking one of your oceans and allow yourself to build up all the anger, all the frustration, all the guilt, all the rage that you have bought into for your life, and give it voice. Give it vent. Air it in that sense. Give it to the universe. Acknowledge that it is yours. Acknowledge that you own it. And in acknowledging it, give it voice so that the universe may see that you are owning it, that you are willing to display it in that sense, that you are willing to know it is a part of you. It is a valid piece of you, a valid portion of your overall energy expressed in a certain way. And it is a statement, as you say, a manifesto. Giving vent just in a long idea, a long noise, a long scream, a cry. Let it release in tears, for that in many ways is a prayer.

The idea of letting it come out in a full and strong voice in the same manner that you did as a child when you screamed the idea of what it is you needed, when you announced your presence in that way with the full conviction of your lungs. Let it come out and be a child in the hands of the universe. That way you are not giving up control by doing that, but you are in a sense allowing yourself to truly ride the ways of universal creation so that control in your life will then be effortless from that point forward.

Remember we have talked about the idea many times that the only reason many of you feel that quote-unquote “surrendering to the flow” of your life is losing control is because most of you are used to the idea of control coming with resistance. And therefore when things flow effortlessly in your life, you don’t think you’re in control. But in fact, when you go with that flow, when you really be who you are and give it voice and conviction, your life becomes effortless in that way. When you express yourself to the fullest idea, your life becomes effortless in that way. And it may feel as if you no longer have control. It may feel as if the universe is doing it for you. But in fact, you are doing it. You are fully in control, just so effortlessly that you do not necessarily equate it to the idea of control.

Give voice to that cleansing flame. Let it burn through you. Let it unite everything within you. Because you see, when you do that, when you create that tonality, when you in that sense cry to the heavens, cry out loud, reverberate to the Earth, you are creating a tonal pattern, a true acceleration of the electromagnetic energy out of which your physical form is made. And as you ring with that tone, as you cry out in that way, as you give full voice to the heavens and the Earth, you create a pattern, a vibratory pattern that aligns your entire cellular structure, your entire molecular structure. You vibrate with the idea of who you are. You are willing to express the conviction of who you are. You are willing to announce yourself to the universe and take full responsibility for the you you chose supposed to be. You are in that sense willing to take responsibility for being the fullest you you possibly can be.

And when you do that, when you release in that way that cleansing flame, you will know yourself as lighter. You will in that sense allow everything that could come to you in your reality to be lighter and to come to you faster, more quickly, in a more accelerated manner. You are turning on your own inner light. You are shining. You are being willing to shine as the beacon that you are, as the reflective mirror that you are, as the love light out of which you were created.

We realize at this timing that much of the information we are sharing with you at this particular moment may seem to be coming at an accelerated rate. The idea is to understand that you are absorbing all this information on whatever level you need to. We are not in this sense allowing the information to come through at this accelerated rate because we wish you to miss anything at all. You are missing nothing. We are doing this on purpose at this time because most of you understand this is not our normal rate of delivery, but we are doing it this way at this time so that your analytical mind will not have quite as much to grasp onto, so that you will be listening with your intuitive levels. And with each and every laugh, you open up more doors that allows you to relax into the assurance that each and every one of you is truly a flame of creation, and that each and every one of you is a facet of unconditional love and deservability, and deservingness. Each and every one of you is a light in the eye of the infinite. Each and every one of you is an eye of the infinite.

Acceleration is the key. The infinite acceleration is the key. The conviction that burns within you. No longer do you have to fear to give it voice. No longer do you have to fear to be who you know you are, who you have always known you were. No longer do you have to judge yourself nor accept the judgments of others. In that sense, as long as you know, as long as you know that you are doing the best you can with all the integrity you believe is at your disposal, if you know you are powerful enough to create whatever you want without having to hurt anyone else or yourself in order to do that, then act in whatever manner you find appropriate. For you are not doing harm in that sense. And if for any reason you slip out of your integrity in what you would term an accidental fashion, an unconscious fashion, then know beyond a shadow of a doubt that you will create the individuals or the circumstances to remind you that you have done so. And so you still have a governing system and you don’t have to watch yourself so closely every step you take. You don’t have to. It is not required that you place such a guard upon yourself. You are co-creators with the infinite. You were meant to create in a free-flowing way. Allow yourself that opportunity. Allow yourself to feel that flow. You deserve it. It is what you are made of. You deserve nothing less. And the universe, the infinite, the All-That-Is, at any time never, never was decreed that you must function as less than you are, as less than you can imagine yourselves to be.

Your imagination is the key. What you can conceive, you can be. That’s why you can conceive it. You’re not capable of conceiving something that you cannot be. The universe does not work that way. It would not be so cruel. It would not be so pointless. It would not be so extraneous. It does not work that way. If you can imagine it, that’s who you are. Be it. Act like it. Be the cleansing flame. Be the flame of conviction. Burn as bright as you can. You will never burn out. Never. You will never burn out. You are infinite and eternal, for that is the nature of All-That-Is, and you are extensions of All-That-Is along with every being in creation. You are made of creation itself.

We thank you. We thank you for allowing us to carry on so. But we simply wish to impart to you that once again, no matter what you have chosen, choose now, or will ever choose to think of yourselves, we know you can create the realities you desire. We have absolute faith in you. There isn’t one single shred of doubt in our minds about what you are capable of doing. Not one. We do not stop and think about it for a moment. We know the type of world you can create. We see with the changes that are going on in your civilization the type of world you seem to be headed for in terms of your desire for peace and harmony. It is our perception that you are creating that world, although now you are going through the last vestiges of your old negativity, getting it all out of your system, bringing it all up to the surface, appearing to be more violent, more escalation of negativity, but you are getting it all out of your system. That is our perspective. We choose to believe that you are headed for harmony and peace. If we did not perceive that to be so, if we did not believe that, we would not be interacting with you. In a short time on an equal level as co-creators and harmony and love. In all likelihood, these conversations would not be going on. Your civilization’s vibration would be far too unlike our civilization’s vibrations for us to be able to interact. For you cannot experience what you are not. The vibration of all vibrations attracts the reality of all vibrations. Attract the reality that is indicative and representative of who and what you believe yourself to be.

That is why conviction is so critical. You always have it. You always have trust. You always have conviction. There has never been a second when you have never had it. Remember once again that your civilization defines doubt as a lack of trust. We do not define it that way. We define doubt as a trust in the negative. Allow yourself to remember therefore that you have always trusted in something. It is now up to you to decide whether or not you wish to trust in the positive or continue to trust in the negative. In the negative definitions, those definitions that say it must be so, it has to be this way because that’s the way it is, that’s the way it’s always been. Those are simply beliefs. They are your definitions. You have created them. You can change them. We know you can because you always do when it suits you. Let it suit you to create peace upon your planet now.

There is much acceleration going on. There are many more opportunities coming up for our civilizations to begin to more blatantly interact with your civilizations. But we do not tell you this because it is necessary that we interact with you. We tell you this simply because it is our perception that you are creating the type of world that would make it more conducive for us to be able to interact with you. Your world, for you, is first. Do not run from it. You chose to be born on your planet. You chose to be alive on your world not so that when you recognize the idea of the power of what you call the Heavens to run away from your planet, but to bring that power down to your planet, to create literally your heaven on Earth. That is your service in your transformational age. And that is why each and every one of you is a flame. So as brightly as you burn will you then create a beacon that others can see and reflect back to you in the mirror that each and every one of you is.

We thank you for opening your doorways. We thank you for your invitations. We accept them gladly to interact with you. We thank you for the gift of your sharing, for it is truly a gift to us. We thank you for your conviction for the you you already have chosen to be and for the you you will choose to be in what you may call your future. Our deepest and unconditional love is always sent to you all. Your imagination may make use of that energy in any way, shape, or form it so desires. It is up to you. It is unconditionally sent. Unconditionally. In return for this gift you have given us, in return for functioning as ambassadors and representatives of your society, and for allowing me to function as an ambassador of my respective societies, I ask you now: in what way may I be of service to you?

Conversation 1: Sandy – Dream Experiences and Astral Travel

Sandy: Good day. My name is Sandy. Speak up so that all may share. Okay. Within a period of three months I had three experiences. Can you all hear this individual adequately? And if this was not a dream experience maybe you could shed some light on it for me, is exactly what it may have been. Do share. Okay. One evening I laid down to go to bed and the next thing I know I see a light coming through the window. I get up, go stand in the window. The light enters into the room, the light fills the room and it fills my body, and I never felt so much love in my life as I did at that moment. Then I woke up and no more than 4 minutes had passed time from the time I laid down.

The second experience was I had gone to bed again and the next thing I know I’m getting into an elevator. Yes. And when I get into the elevator I panic. I hit the elevator doors very hard and say, “This is too real to be a dream.” The elevator comes back down. Who says that dreams are not real? That that was it. After that I realized I wanted to go back. After I panicked it brought me back down, let me out, and no more than two minutes had gone by.

The next experience… um… I was lying in bed to go to sleep again. I raised… I got up out of bed. My feet were about 6 inches off the floor. I levitated through the bedroom, through the bedroom door, down the hallway, out the front door. Guys, my body turned upward towards the sky. As I got upward, I lay there and I wondered if I was going to go any further. The next thing I know I’m getting up off an operating table. I’m talking to people in this room. Lights seem to be coming from behind the wall. Yes. And um… I don’t remember what people look like. I felt friendly towards them. Yes. I had gauze on my ears. It’s like I had some type of surgery in a sense. Next thing I know I’m back in bed and no more than 12 minutes [had] passed the time I close my eyes. Was this a dream experience or well…

Bashar: Do understand now we are discussing the idea and the whole issue and have been for quite some time that as you blend your physical and non-physical reality into what we call a dream time, you will understand that your dream realities have always been real. Not that what you remember as a dream is always exactly literal to the experience you had, but it was real. A real experience nonetheless, which sometimes you interpret or symbolize when you come back into physical focus. However, all you are describing are excursions into what you call the astral state, which operates on a higher time frequency than your physical state. So many things can happen there much more quickly than they happen on your physiological level. You can experience in many ways entire lifetimes in certain levels of the astral or ethereal or aerial states and come back to find that only a few minutes have passed in the physical terminology because you’re so highly accelerated in the astral non-physical state.

Now the idea is that as you loosen up and disconnect from the idea of the physical reality, are not so tightly locked down to this solid dense physical reality, as you begin to take more excursions in the lighter, more ethereal physical realms, you find that you are far more malleable, far more able to travel what you call distances. Because truly you are creating those distances anyway with your consciousness, and you can go as you say hither, thither, and yon in the wink of an eye. And you can visit many different states, many different beings who operate almost exclusively in what you would call the ethereal vibratory realms, which by the way is almost exclusively where we, the civilizations of the association, operate. What you call the ethereal realms, the ethereal levels. That is our frequency, our vibratory frequency, being that much more accelerated than what you typically call physical dense matter.

That is why, contrary to what your world considers to be popular opinion, it is actually easier for us to interact with you in your dream state than to materialize in what you call your physical reality. Which is one of the reasons why there have not really been mass landings yet. The idea is that we operate on that higher frequency, and when you are in your dream state and you detach, so to speak, or shall I say expand into your non-physical realms, there you are truly meeting us in what you might call our home turf, our home vibration. You are meeting us halfway and it is much easier to interact with you.

Now the idea of the so-called operation is that yes, you interact with many different of these ethereal beings. Many of you call us etherians, extraterrestrials. The nomenclature does not really matter. But you interact and with your agreement go through, shall we say, energy adjustments that you interpret as physiological operations. Sometimes these energy adjustments on the astral body will actually leave physiological scarring on your physical body because you will have such a strong impression of the reality of the situation—because it is real—that you will transfer that impression to your physiological form when you reconnect with it. Not all… the majority of the idea of the so-called abduction—what we prefer to call detainments temporarily involving your species and other species—involve true physiological operations or interactions. Many of them take place on the astral levels. And because it is real to you, you interpret it as a physiological experience in your physical dimension. So yes, adjustments were made upon you, operations were performed with your agreement to allow you to be more representative of the level of energy in your physical plane that you wish to operate on. You would have given assistance in that sense.

Eric – Ascension and the Body

Eric: is it true in absolute reality… absolute reality? That in order for me to make my ascension that I must first accelerate my physical body to such extent that if I so chose I could sustain it in the physical eternally instead of dying?

Bashar: Yes. The idea once again is similar to what we are already talking about as existing in what you may call an etheric state. For we, many of us, have a type of physicality, but it is not the physicality you are used to. It is more what you would call the ascended state of physicality. Now you may not remain there in that sense forever per se—although of course, shall we say (parenthesis: everyone always exists eternally on every level there is to exist upon simultaneously, close parenthesis)—but speaking about it linearly, you may not choose to remain there forever. But the idea is basically yes, that as you allow more acceleration to take place, as you live more in the moment, more spontaneously, you uplift your vibratory awareness. You take quote-unquote “your body with you” and you exist in a more refined physiological state which we have called fourth density, which you may call the etherion state.

Now do understand once again that the idea isn’t really that you quote-unquote “take your body with you.” The idea is not that your spirit and your body are two separate things. Your physical body is your spirit in physical terminology. Your spirit does not inhabit your body literally. Your body is not hollow in that sense spiritually speaking. So simply, the more you allow your natural spirituality to accelerate, then your body form can ascend with it by stepping up its vibratory experience.

Perhaps to illustrate this most simply and most clearly, there is a saying that exists upon your planet that goes as follows: “You are not human beings having a spiritual experience. You are spiritual beings having a human experience.” You are spirit expressing yourself in human expression, just as we are the same type of spirit expressing ourselves in E.T. expression. Therefore, as you live more fully in the now, as you live more fully vitally in the now, as you express the rest of yourself, everything you are, every expression of yourself can accelerate along with that living in the moment. You understand?

Eric: Yes, I understand what you’re saying. And what provoked that question is that some say… some schools have thought that in order… or they say that when the time for ascension has come that a person would not even be able to sustain the physical body, that there would be an automatic ascension. And to me it seems like that would take away a person’s choice. Which you’ve taken away the choice, taking away the God…

Bashar: Not really. The idea is simply a matter of semantics again. It is an acceleration which doesn’t necessarily have to be perceived as having the same body you used to. Okay? You will in the astral level, in the etheric level, still be able to perceive yourself as having a body expression, but in no way, shape, or form is it actually the same type of expression you call a body now. So in one sense you can still keep it with you, and in another sense you really don’t have it any longer at all. It takes away nothing. It is your choice. You simply go to whatever level is most appropriate to the vibration you are, and that simply makes sense to you at the time, because wherever you go you feel that you fit. So you do not feel like you have lost your choice because you will simply go to whatever level is appropriate for the vibration you are, and it will feel correct. When you are there, in whatever manner you choose to express yourself, that will also feel correct.

All of this idea of ascension and taking your body with you or leaving it behind is truly in many ways a third-dimensional matter of semantics and is in a sense overall quite arbitrary. Understand? You are consciousness itself. Remember also in connection with the idea that your spirit isn’t really in your body… remember that your consciousness is not really in your body. Your body—the idea you call your body—is in your consciousness. So no matter where you go, you’re simply going to be the consciousness that you are expressing yourself in whatever way feels correct to you. You will still have attachment in a sense to everything you have ever been, because that’s the idea of ascension: you don’t leave anything behind. You gather everything up and in a sense take it all with you. It is an inclusive idea, not an exclusive idea. You become more than, not less than.

Eric: Uh, would you, as I take leave, would you say anything at all about how to perform the marriage between Heaven and Earth? Seems since that seems to be connected with the whole idea of ascension in the now, you know, as opposed to waiting?

Bashar: Well, live on earth as if it is heaven. Create that expression. Be the gateway through which that energy comes so that all individuals who see you will say, “There goes an angel. We must be in heaven.”

Bashar: Starting before we can continue… remember the whole issue simply comes down to: don’t create a definitional difference between things you don’t want to be separate. See them as one thing.

The Triangle of Troubles

Asker: I’m sort of caught in this triangle of… sort of caught all right, triangle of troubles that all shoot off of one another. My… a triangle of troubles. How poetic. I have been having trouble trusting my instincts on stage, which I don’t understand why I can’t trust my instincts when I have fun doing it. What do you trust? Uh oh. God, is that too insane of a question?

Bashar: Well, that leads onto the other two points of the triangle.

Asker: Oh, all right. Perhaps you should simply define the whole triangle and let’s approach it as a whole rather than a collection of parts. All right. Okay. Uh, I have a relationship with two different men. One being the writer and somewhat producer of my standup, which is where I’m having trouble trusting my instinct. And the other is a friend of mine who I love very much and is very supportive, and I can’t understand why I don’t trust… his… my relationship with him. All right. Time. And the third point… that was the third point. Two and three. The director/writer person is the second, and the other person who is dear to me and supportive is the third.

Bashar: All right. Would you like names? That make it easy? Unnecessary. Okay. Now you obviously, because you do create your own reality, have attracted all of these circumstances and situations. Are you learning about yourself by having done so? What are you now affording yourself an opportunity to see and learn about yourself?

Asker: That… that… my… how do I put this? I know that my… whatever I believe is true is true, and I follow that. And I’ve been changing that way over the past six months or so. It’s very strong in my convictions. That’s why it’s difficult in not trusting my instincts on stage to relate to the audience. There’s like a very thin… May I ask you a question?

Bashar: Yes, thank. It might be another insane one. Is that all right?

Asker: That’s perfect.

Bashar: All right. Are you confusing the issue of trusting your instincts with the notion of making a conscious decision? Are you saying that making conscious and deliberate decisions is not trusting instinct? Because it is, you know. In other words, if you simply decide consciously what is true for you and, as you say, go for it, it is in many ways the same thing as simply trusting your instincts. You are simply making a decision, sticking to it, believing that that is the decision you prefer to make. And in very many ways, that is the same thing as trusting your instincts. Well, because you are having deliberateness in your life, is there some confusion between the idea of making a conscious decision—what may sometimes appear to be analytical—and the idea of allowing your instincts to be in the forefront? Yeah. The being instinct take no time in making a decision. In other words, you allow things to be obvious, yes, and you simply act accordingly on what is obvious. Yes. Right. Yeah.

Bashar: All right. But you see, making a decision can be the same way. You know, in your life, the idea of who and what you are and what excites you the most and what you prefer—decide that that is your life. And if that is your decision, then why not simply trust that the things that are going on, the relationships and circumstances that are going on in your life, are the product of having made that decision and not an interruption in that decision? And therefore extract from the relationships and the situations whatever is there to be extracted, rather than assuming that somehow these relationships do not serve the decision you made to be who you want to be.

Many of you have certain expectations that allow you to disbelieve that the things that happen in your life after you make a certain decision are actually representative of having made that decision. Say, “Oh no, no, how can this possibly be representative of who it is I decided to be?” You don’t have to always have analytical recognition of how it fits. Just trust that it does fit and allow yourself to be in the relationship for what it is rather perhaps than what you think it ought to be. Is this helping it all so far?

Asker: I know that. I mean, what you’re saying I know. I mean, in your terminology, where is the difficulty in… in… uh… because the two… the two men are like diametrically opposed in their opinion.

Bashar: Well, they obviously are in through you.

Asker: Well, yeah.

Bashar: So obviously you must contain something that is a reflection to each and every one of them, to both of them. Therefore, perhaps in you they can learn to integrate their own opposites, their own polarities, through you. Perhaps that is the service you are providing.

Asker: They don’t know each other.

Bashar: Oh, yes, they do. They would not be interacting with the same person if on some level they didn’t understand. Yeah. So whether they physiologically are consciously aware of each other or not is not the point. The point is that you are functioning as a fulcrum, as a go-between them.

Asker: Can you just tell me if this is an ongoing thing, going from different lives and stuff?

Bashar: It is. Okay. You have danced many times with similar individuals of the same spirit. Similar or the same? I mean similar personas, same spirits. Oh, okay. In other words, you have played out many of these kinds of triad reflections before with them, and from time to time with many other individuals.

Asker: Was I schizophrenic then?

Bashar: Only in the sense constructively that you can represent different faces to each of them. The faces they need to see to be served by you, to allow them to integrate the polarities within themselves. In that sense, yes, schizophrenic, but it is a constructive idea in this case. Okay. Well, thank. Is this making some sense to you?

Asker: I think it will eventually.

Bashar: All right. You can begin by trusting first of all that you did in fact attract yourself into the relationships and that you are being of service and that they are serving you. Allow yourself to learn more and more about who you are by being in contact with such diametrically opposite individuals, because it allows you to see that you contain both of these sides. So that you, in being shown those opposites, can function more as a whole integrated being. And by functioning as an integrated being, can reflect back to each of them the polarities they need to integrate to allow them to understand who they are, to serve them in that way. That is a large portion of the reason you are having these relationships: to be of service in that way.

When you allow what you are receiving from them to be reflected to you in a way that allows you to integrate them into one being and blend those polarities, you will then begin to act like more of that whole being. And in acting like more of that whole being, there will be much more obviousness to your instincts and your decisions with everything else in your life. Do not pull yourself apart when you see different pieces of yourself reflected in both those individuals. Do not think of yourself as schizophrenic. That word… using that word is a very strong clue to the fact that you think of yourself as composed of separate ideas. Ideas start to realize that all the seemingly separate ideas that are reflected to you in your life means that you are one whole thing that can manifest in all of those ways. That you are that multi-dimensional. Bring it all home. Own it all. Own all the reflections you attract in your life, and you will have your instincts very clear in front of your face. Own it all.

Now, that doesn’t necessarily mean that when you attract someone in your life that’s doing a certain thing, acting a certain way, that they are necessarily a one-to-one reflection of what you are doing or what you need to work on directly. But still nonetheless, if you attract them, they do reflect a portion of you. They do reflect an idea. Own it all. Own that you attracted them. Own that you are learning more of who you are. Integrate. Be the fuller being, and then your instincts will come naturally. They will be very obvious because you’ll be operating on what you may call a higher level of perception. Understand? Because you will contain, once again remember, you will contain all the interactions within you, and that will give you a source of information to draw from to be whoever it is you wish to be at any given moment. And it will be obvious. You will be inspired.

Dollar Devaluation

Asker: Jonathan May says the American dollar will devalue. The restructuring of the whole idea of the restructuring of the whole idea of abundance in your society. Yes. Right. I guess it was… was I haven’t heard anything about it before, and I was given a tape and it was… it was kind of shocking to hear.

Bashar: There are many changes going on in the tools that your society uses, and your society is beginning to realize that you can simplify many of these tools. That is all. What for now in many ways on the surface, because of your old ways of looking at things, seems like the destruction of all you have known is simply the destructuration of many of the old tools so that they can become simpler in your society. So that you can recognize that the whole issue of exchange can be a more direct idea without necessarily needing as much of a middle symbol to represent the exchange as your society has had in the past. Our society does not have money at all. Doesn’t need it. We interact directly in that way.

So all of the signs you are seeing now in some senses are simply representative of the fact that you are destructuring yourself so that you don’t need to put your faith in as many tools and can put the faith back in yourselves, back in creation itself, that it works to begin with. And you don’t necessarily have to feel so cut off from creation that you need all these different tools to hook into the idea that it works to make it work. It works just fine if you let it.

Asker: Ah, I guess. Well, the… the thing he was saying was that it was going to bring mass devastation upon us.

Bashar: Well, that depends on how you approach it. The idea is that if you believe, if you buy into the idea that you will not be able to have what you need, that other individuals will not be able to get what they need because of what you call the devaluation of that symbol in your society, then that may be the reality you experience: one of want and destruction and panic and frustration. But if you understand that it is simply phasing out as a symbol and that there are other ideas, other ways that can take its place, other methodologies of approach, other methods of interaction, and you begin to look for them and begin to believe in them and begin to use them, then you will find that the entire change will probably take place without so much as a notice by those individuals using those new methodologies. “Oh, money? Oh yes. Well, it was here a moment ago. Well, I didn’t really notice its passage.” You see? Didn’t mean to miss the funeral. I’ll send flowers. But you see, I’ve been so busy. I have been so focused on the idea of direct exchange or any other methodology that I found did work well, the old symbol simply faded out and I didn’t really pay much attention.

It can go both ways. It really depends upon attitude. It really depends upon approach. Really depends upon the individual and the belief systems they have bought into. For you see, that is the foundational currency of your society: what you believe.

Anything you read, anything you find out, anything you hear can always be taken in a positive or a negative way. And whatever way you take it is the way you will experience it in your reality. Because all situations are fundamentally neutral and do not have a built-in meaning. They are neutral props. The meaning you supply determines the effect you get out of it. This is simple mechanics and it always works that way.

Community, Rage, and Integration

Asker: Hello Bashar, and you good day. Okay. I want to… I want to thank you first of all for starting the evening out with a talk about the sort of the… the blade of rage, because I wasn’t here last week because that’s what I was doing. I was raging away at the universe. So it felt I felt at home here.

I wanted to talk to you a little bit about what was making me at rage. All right. I think it has to do with something uh with a polarity dealing with… with the individual me being me, okay, and yet my desire to be blended with All-That-Is. And in the physical world that I live on here on Earth, I want to represent that in community. And so I have been drawing into my life since last summer… um, well, not just since last summer, it’s been an interest of me. And when I talk to my friends about it, it’s like, you know, they’re really going to sleep on me and I can’t… I can’t communicate to anybody what… how essential this is and and how it really means something to me.

Bashar: But before you go on that many individuals, because they are not used to functioning in a fully conscious manner, will need to become unconscious before they can really hear you. Because that’s where they listen. Okay.

Asker: Well, see, that that’s what was going on. Okay. I’ve been drawing all this into myself and I… I had a real beautiful experience of finding out what it means to be in community with a whole bunch of people. They’re actually 44. Okay. 22 men and 22 women by accident. Okay. There are no leaders. There are no… there are no belief systems. There are… we… there are belief systems, yes, there are, but I mean we can do anything we want and and we can make community any way we want. And it was a very powerful experience for me because I got in contact with the fact that I didn’t have to do anything. I just had to be in that particular moment.

Bashar: All right. One of the things you understand that doing is critical, but the idea is that when you are doing what you are, it is an effortless flow that simply allows you to feel as if you are simply being. But it doesn’t stop doing. As long as you are projecting yourself as a physical reality, doing is a critical way to express your beingness. Okay.

Asker: What… what happened there was I tend to, in a group, you know, like I’ll see I… okay, in the colloquial term, I’m a high school English teacher in an inner city and I am confronted daily with a lot of human pain. All right. And so when I’m in a community I’m aware of a lot of this stuff and like there’s this little part of me that would like to fix people’s lives. And a little part of it… yeah, great big part anyway. I really got to get in touch with that and not have to do that because it puts a big strain on me. Okay. So I… taking responsibility for other individuals is a strain. Being fully responsible to them is not. And that’s what I meant by that being. I was with them. Okay. It… it was really exciting.

Then I challenged myself a little bit more and I thought, this is what I want to do in my classroom. Okay. Yes. Okay. I talked to you a year ago about teaching and anyway. So I, you know, and I… I got into this and I… I drew a support team. It has to do with like pure communicators and it mean… it was… it was beautiful and all this. So then I gave myself a challenge of really being with teenagers and adults and administrators and building a community. And they had this little workshop. Okay. It was guys anyway. So I went and I really wanted to do this and it was horrible.

Bashar: In what sense?

Asker: I was raging the whole time. I mean… and I was…

Bashar: Well, good. You were bringing up things you needed to look at.

Asker: Yes. That was happening. And I know that. But why is that horrible? Well, no. One of the things that I was doing is like I would say things and I wasn’t communicating. I mean, I would say something and then somebody else would like try to mirror it back to me and it’s like, “Well no, that’s not what it’s all about.” And it wasn’t just then. When I got back, you know, to the… my… after the weekend with the people that I was working with and I was sharing with them things I couldn’t… they… there was nothing. I feel like I wasn’t talking like… they’re not hearing me. And I felt while I was there like I didn’t want to be there and yet I wanted to be there. Was really bringing in all this polarity stuff.

Bashar: Yes. Give you more of an opportunity to really learn to communicate with yourself and to also learn that the strongest form of communication is not in the talking but in the doing.

Asker: No. No. No. No. I… that’s what… that’s… that’s the part that I see in real life. Okay. It’s like my… what I do. Yes. I mean, what I’m doing in my classroom, what I’m doing right here, it isn’t so much what we’re saying that we’re communicating. Yes. But what I felt there is like this total isolation. Here I’m with all these people and I want to be with these people and I’m feeling totally disconnected. I don’t know why I create that.

Bashar: Can be for many reasons. Can be as simple as learning the difference between the reality you now are as opposed to the reality you used to be. Simply could have been a very graphic demonstration of old ideas that you no longer buy into and so simply are no longer connected to. Could be that. Could be, once again, the idea of learning to communicate with new parts of yourself that you hadn’t necessarily allowed yourself to see, and now that you are seeing them you can integrate them so you can do more as the individual you really choose to be. And that will be the communication that you will be doing. Can be that. Can be many things. First suggestion would be to not label it as being horrible.

Asker: Yeah. Okay. I knew you’d say that. But I… I… I felt like being honest. Okay. That’s what it…

Bashar: Oh, yes. Absolutely. Do own it. If that is what you created, by all means.

Asker: And the rage and the disconnection that I felt made me like… last… and I mean this went on the weekend before and by Thursday I was in such a rage about the whole thing that I really didn’t even want to be here and you… I mean, I know that’s hysterical and extremely dramatic, but that was what I was feeling. My raging at the universe. I mean, I… if I could have like disconnected not just from this lifetime but from all being because I had made… I… I feel like I was really… I’m really trying with all of my integrity to be here and and…

Bashar: Integrity does not require trying.

Asker: No, I know. But I mean I was being real there. I mean, I knew I was and I wasn’t there and it bothered me.

Bashar: Where were you?

Asker: I don’t know. I mean, I… I will… I mean, I… I like… I… I could feel myself saying… I mean, I mean, I’ve been here and I hear this and I… and it’s like I want to, you know, live my life in the present. And I could see myself every moment escaping and I keep bringing myself back.

Bashar: May I ask you a question? Sure. I would like it. Well, thank you. When you went into that gathering, did you bring a number of expectations in with you?

Asker: Well, that’s what a lot of people are asking me. I didn’t. I just went there. Okay. I… I… I… I didn’t seem to think of anything that I was expecting except the reactions you wanted from them. And I got a lot of… well, I got a lot of reactions within me that maybe surprised me.

Bashar: Why did you expect any particular types of reactions from them? Why did you necessarily assume that when you went into the group and said what you wanted to say…

Asker: Oh, I didn’t do a lot of talking. You know, the only times I did talk is when they really made me do that.

Bashar: You… well, I mean, if I were going to cooperate in this and so I did want to cooperate. And so like they’d go around, they’d say, “How’s everybody feeling?” You know, and I wasn’t feeling raw. Raw. All right. Stop. Back up. All right. Your rage, according to what we have understood in our translation of your language, began when you, according to what you have explained to us, did not receive the feedback you thought you should. Okay.

Asker: Yes. I don’t know. I… I… the feed… the feedback that I thought I should… I don’t know. From them?

Bashar: You were saying you felt cut off but there was no communication going on, but you were expressing certain ideas and they were not responding in the way you thought.

Asker: Later on, when I left during the weekend, I felt like I was doing that. Like I didn’t… I thought, “What am I doing here with these people?” You know, I… I didn’t feel connected to them.

Bashar: All right. Then once again, backtracking to what we have already said, does that give you some understanding of the fact that you do not necessarily need to place yourself in circumstances that are no longer representative of who you really are?

Asker: Okay. That’s what I probably… I… I… why can’t we be in community with every being?

Bashar: Oh, you can. But do remember that right now on your planet, because it is a time of transition, you are still exhibiting in your society a multitude of very diverse and sometimes diametrically opposite belief systems. Yes.

Asker: I know. I’m living it every day.

Bashar: Yes. Your civilization has not yet learned en masse to express validity and true equality to the infinite diversity within your civilization. The idea therefore is that you can be aware of all the different variances in belief, yes. And the way to experience an equality with that is to simply listen to what another individual has to say without the expectation that it has to make any connective sense at all to what you believe. Yeah. Okay.

You also said one other thing which to some degree is a vital clue about your expectation, because you said that what you have to share is essential for everyone to know. Why?

Asker: Oh. Okay. Why?

Bashar: No, it isn’t. Correct. Right. So don’t bring that expectation in and you will not get the idea thrown back at you. Okay. Understand?

Asker: Yes. Thank you. That is true unconditional sharing. And that’s when the real community starts: when you share because you are that person, regardless of what they share back with you. What they share back with you is just as much of a sharing as you gave to them. Expecting that it must make logical connective sense to what you already shared is to some degree an expectation, okay, that says that they should involve themselves in the same level of perception that you have initiated, which they don’t have to do.

Asker: All right. One thing that you said… see, it bothers me. This bothers me about what bothers this New Age stuff. Okay. New Age stuff. Okay. It’s like what you said to me. Okay. So you’re getting a reflection. We have all this diversity and maybe you’re not there. And I’m thinking, you know, why are we so high and mighty from everybody?

Bashar: You don’t have to be. That’s a judgment. Hear?

Asker: Okay. I’m hearing that. I’m hearing that. Well, because in many cases, once again, even the New Age thought going on on your planet takes its format from any old age definitions.

Bashar: No, no. I was hearing it in a sense from something that you were saying about such as I was getting a reflection of maybe where I’m not of where I have been. And maybe what I’m… why… why am I putting myself in something that’s not for me? Am I hearing… but I was… I hearing you right?

Bashar: To some degree. But perhaps a more precise way to formulate that question is: why are you defining that where you put yourself has nothing to do with who you are?

Asker: I’m not…

Bashar: All right. Then you will not have the reaction that you have had. You could not have the reaction that you described to us that you had right without the idea of the definition that you somehow in that sense did not fit or they did not fit. The idea is that you can go and experience that community feeling you want to, but if you want to experience that community feeling, then let them be a diversified community.

Asker: Yes. And that’s what I want. I mean, that… that… that’s what this is. Then why did you react to their differences in a negative way?

Asker: Well, this was what was upsetting to me because I asked for what I wanted and I got it. Yes. And I don’t want to be a part of it.

Bashar: You do not want to be a part of the definition you created to… yes. Create another definition. Right. Create the definition you prefer and live it that way.

Asker: And this will help me with a lot of the things…

Bashar: Not if you let it. Yeah. It doesn’t have to. It has no mind of its own. It cannot force you in that sense to accept the principle. You must use the tool consciously in that sense. Now you can recognize again that other individuals may for now have belief systems that do not have much to do with the belief systems you prefer. Let them have their belief systems. And in letting them have their belief systems, that’s actually the quickest way to allow them the opportunity to align with yours.

Asker: Yes. But I think that what I became aware of too was the terrible loneliness I felt there. But why? I didn’t have… I didn’t share with anyone else. Like, why do I always feel so different? I mean, like I don’t really feel like I fit here either. But everyone is different, right? That’s what I was dealing with: the differences in the individual and our ability to be together and flow together. Like that energy that came through for me anyway, yes, two weeks ago when Galactic… that’s the name, the Galactic… there was this feeling of really flowing with all of this energy.

Bashar: But that is because the energy of the Galactic recognizes that recognition of differences is what connects you together, not the other way around. Okay.

Asker: I… I really truly believe that that… that is what I do. Then act like it. You cannot have a reaction as you had if you did believe that. To have that kind of reaction, you have to believe something else. To feel lonely by recognizing differences… have a… all right. Well, then you allowed yourself to realize that you may have still bought into that belief system and now you don’t have to anymore. Okay. You gave yourself the opportunity to discover that aspect of yourself that perhaps you did not know you created. Now you do. Now you don’t have to choose it anymore. So that is a very wondrous thing, not a horrible thing.

Bashar: This evening, ask when you are going into your dream state for the next at least three of your nights in a row for assistance from your guides, and specifically also for the assistance of dolphin energy to aid you in taking you on what might be called a little astral tour, so that you can understand and recognize the whole idea of the interconnectedness of differences from another level. To see it from another perspective in that sense, to see the unifying factors so that you will be able to truly know it has infused itself within you, not just as an analytical principle but as a true mode of life expression. They will help you blend this idea and accelerate this idea within you. They will in that sense assist you in homogenizing.

Lilith, Birth Control, and Warrior Energy

Asker: Uh, there’s been an… an aspect of… I imagine it’s a… a myth that exists. Um, I would assume it’s a myth. It could have been real. I have no idea. But it keeps recurring in my life, and that is the Lilith aspect of femininity. Yes. And I was wondering if you could tell me a little bit about it. I seem to have uh sort of been drawn to…

Bashar: Um, it is an archetypal substream collective consciousness that you have expressed in more blatant ways in several of the lives you have lived more than you are expressing it directly now. You are expressing other ideas now, other archetypal consciousnesses now through this particular life stream aspect. But the Lilith aspect you have been in touch with in many other lives in many different ways. It simply is now that you are integrating the idea of the boldness and the warrior aspect in with the idea of masculinity and femininity. You are simply recalling some of the attachments you have had to that energy so that you have a, shall we say, reference point of the feminine idea you have expressed in a very strong way in the past, so you can bring that up to the present and integrate the idea of the masculine aspect and the feminine aspect in one life now, making it autonomous. Sort of yes.

Asker: And that whole idea once again of having a very sharp blade in a velvet sheath. You… you recognize me?

Bashar: Oh, yes. You are unmistakable vibration. Fairly screams it.

Asker: It’s true. It’s true. Um, I have just one other short question.

Bashar: All right.

Asker: And it’s for everyone. We need the perfect birth control method on this planet. Yes. Can you help us out?

Bashar: Absolutely. Conscious communication with the individuals that can be your children so you know what the timing is, so you know when you will and won’t get pregnant.

Asker: So I can just say no? No? No spirits welcome the no? No. No. No.

Bashar: No. The idea is to be in conscious touch with the agreements you have made already so that you are aware of your timing. I mean, yes, in a sense you can make an agreement “this is not for me,” but the idea is to be in conscious awareness with the agreements you have made so you recognize the whys and the wherefores of what the timing is for having decided or not decided to bear physical children, and what the spirits are, what the consciousness is that you would be in touch with in having made that agreement with them, and why it would be playing out, why they may need to be born to you, what you have agreed with them. Being aware of all these levels of agreement will simply allow you to understand that when that agreement is not time, you cannot possibly get pregnant. And when it is time, you cannot possibly do anything but… um… but being in touch with the timing, knowing that inner sense of communication with that spirit—which of course at this point is not really a child in your vernacular—being in communication with that spirit will simply put you squarely in intuitive touch with what your timing is.

You may not have made an agreement to have children in that way. It is up to you. You may have made agreements to have what you may call temporary physiological lives, because sometimes there are consciousnesses that do not necessarily need to experience what you call a full lifespan. But the idea of being in touch with that consciousness and feeling that recognition and feeling that communication intuitively will simply allow you to understand beyond the shadow of a doubt when your timing is and when it is not. Also, being in touch in that way can also regulate in many ways for many of your feminine beings the whole issue of what you call your periodicity. You know, you do not need to experience it at all if you can flow the periodicity in terms of the idea of a full blending of your masculine and feminine side into one expressiveness. You will find that there are times when it may speed up at first, but then it will begin to slow down and slow down and slow down and slow down, and you may find that you rarely experience it when you are in touch with your timing, when there is all the conviction of the absolute idea of your timing of the relationships and the agreements you have made.

When you begin to operate on that level, that doesn’t mean you have to have analytical awareness of what all the agreements are, just when you are in the flow of knowing and trusting your intuitive side, then you can realize that those kinds of expressions, those kinds of clearings and cleansings, can be experienced in many other ways and expressed in many other ways. And it does not at any time in any way have to be experienced in pain. Ever. Ever. Ever. Ever. Those ideas are from times in your history when many of you in that sense bought into ideas that were less than you are, when you cut yourself off in many ways from the actual flow of nature, of your blended masculine and feminine cells. When you reclaim that idea, that polarity, and homogenize it into one idea within each and every feminine and masculine being, there will be no pain. There will be no need for that particular type of periodicity.

Well, now. So one moment. The idea also is to align what you have called your sub and unconscious cells into the recognition that you are simply one consciousness, and that the terms subconscious and unconscious are simply in many ways terms of convenience for things that you don’t want to look at. The idea is therefore why it is psychically tied to what you call your lunar cycle. The once-a-month idea is because your moon represents in what you call the nighttime aspect the idea of all the things that are buried within your subconscious. Bringing that to the surface will mean that you have blended the night and the day, and you’ll be able to function in conscious harmony with all the cycles of nature inside such a way that that power can be expressed in creative flows without pain and without the type of biological flow that you experience it as now.

Asker: But the only thing that um has me concerned is that I’m not really totally aware of the agreements that I’ve made.

Bashar: But you do not have to have absolute analytical awareness of what they are to sense the timing. Be intuitively in touch with the timing. Get into a meditative state. Know that you are in communication with all those consciousnesses you are making agreements with or have made agreements with, and just must let them communicate with you on the level where you can feel the timing of the agreement. Get to know it, as you say. Practice with it. Feel the idea. See it play out in your life with regard to certain events that happen so you can cue and key into that feeling when a certain event happens, and it will train you to recognize what that feeling is, to recognize the flow of that feeling, to recognize the flow of that timing, so you’ll get used to what it feels like so you will know when you are on timing and when you are not in that sense. Understand? Treat it as what you all call an extra sense. It is very natural within all of you. It is not extra; it is a part of what you are. You are completely in touch with nature in that way. The actual expression in many cases of what you call your feminine periodicity is actually having cut yourself off from many aspects of nature. That is why it represents itself that way.

Asker: Well, I’ve embraced that. I… you know, I… I’m not really concerned about that aspect. But the thing is I’ve never felt uh a desire to have children, and yet I’ve been on the pill forever because I don’t know what else to do.

Bashar: Stop. When you talk about the idea of children, first of all, many times the lack of desire can in and of itself be indicative of the fact that you may have made an agreement not to have any biologically. Also, when you think about the idea of children, sometimes it may for many individuals—and you are very connected to the type of energy that is common to many individuals who feel the following way—that even when you think of the idea of children, what may seem more natural or feel more natural to you is not the idea of biological presentation but adoption. You may find that you have in many ways the ability to bring into your sphere other individuals who may on some levels be considered your children but who do not necessarily have to interact with you from physical birth. Mh. Who you may run into when they are already a little bit older.

Asker: That would be very nice. Much better. All right. But uh, like I say, I just still don’t know exactly if I’m…

Bashar: All you have to do to find out all these timings is take that sword and put it in the sheath. It’s in there. All right. A velvet sheath. Yes. It is still sharp. It will never get dull. You are still the warrior, but you are in that sense a peaceful one.

Asker: I hope so. What I’m sure I am. Thank you. A warrior says, “I know so.” I know so. I hope so.

Bashar: Remember that a warrior’s first blade is the blade of conviction. Understand?

Asker: I’ve got my hand on it. I know I do. Thank you very much. It’s… it’s just been the most incredible 6 months of my life, and I didn’t think I would be able to go on without you. I feel umbilically tied to you.

Bashar: But we are all connected. But remember, all of you, any energy you feel quote-unquote “from us” is your own energy. We simply put out a vibration that is up to you to match. If you feel the energy, you have matched it. So you can create that energy for yourselves anytime you want because it’s… it’s your energy. You don’t need us in that sense. But we are always all interconnected.

Also, when many of you talk about the idea of going through this process and that process and taking this amount of years and this amount of years to go through these processes, you can change those definitions to perhaps make it seem as if it really hasn’t been all that much time. Think about it in terms of orbits. Oh, well, 10 years it has taken, but it has only taken 10 orbits. Just 10 times around our central sun. That’s not very much. Not very much at all. It makes you all very young.
