In your imagination, turn around 180 degrees and behold: 10 feet away from you once again is another being, another body.

However, this body is your identical twin, but your sexual opposite. It is what you would have looked like had you been born sexually opposite to what you are now. It is the other side, the polarity of you.

Look at it. Just look. Let it look at you. Do not fear it. Do not judge it. It will stand perfectly still for you while you go walk all around it. Observe it from every angle. It knows you are watching, but it trusts you implicitly.

When you are through, go back to your starting place and allow it to do the same to you as before: to walk all around you, above and below you, to become familiarized with you as you became familiarized with it, until it is satisfied and goes back to its starting position.

Then, as before, open your heart and send waves of love, of bonding love, of unconditional love. And if you find it is necessary, send forgiveness. And if you find it is necessary, receive forgiveness.

And open your arms in your imagination, even as your opposite opens its arms and walks towards you as you walk toward it, and you meet in the middle and embrace for the first time in a long time. And you just hold and support and nurture and love each other for what you are.

No longer is there any need to express what the other ought to be. It is what it is, and as it is, it is perfect.

Feel your hearts beating against each other’s chests. You are in love.

As you float in the warmth of the energy cocoon that surrounds you, you feel yourself merging, melting, blending as one being, with both energies—male and female, female and male. You are one homogeneous, balanced light.

And as you blend, your light increases, and you are a vibrant, radiant white light that shines to the infinite space far around you, so that all may see the living light that you have chosen to be. Balanced, clear, enlightened, and clean, with your integrity intact and your intentions razor sharp and crystal clear, you are one unified being, awake and alert, conscious—truly conscious—for the first time in a long time.

And it feels good, and it feels expansive, and it feels light and effortless and joyful, and above and beyond all, ecstatic. Ecstasy.

You will never find that there will ever be too much ecstasy for you to handle. Ever. You never receive at any moment more than you can handle, for the universe and creation does not do pointless nor extraneous things. Everything that is, is because it fits, because it belongs where it is as it is. Everything that exists deserves to exist, or it wouldn’t exist.

Treat yourself with the same respect that the infinite treats you by having created you to begin with. If it didn’t believe you deserve to exist, you wouldn’t.

So the you you know yourself to be, the complete and total you, is worthy of all you can conceive. You deserve it because you have conceived of it, because it is representative of you, and you belong. You fit, or you wouldn’t exist.

Three deep breaths and lock it in. And know it with all your knowingness, beyond the shadow of a doubt.

And in your own way, in your own time, open your eyes and greet the new dawn, the new day, the new world around you, and the new—once again new—you. You are not the same. I am not the same. This conversation begins now.

Happy birthday, if you wish.

Stand and stretch and get used to the new you that you are from this moment forward until you change again. And as you are doing so, allow me to remind you: be seated if you wish.

Change is the only stable constant in creation. I ask you simply: how are you truly more stable—by attempting to be static and stand on one foot, or by moving left, right, left, right, left, right? The motion is what gives you balance. The change is what gives you growth, and it is what truly creates stability. Attempting to remain in the same spot creates stagnation. Stability is the product of being willing to change, as you say in your language, to go with the flow, because the flow comes from you. Life does not happen to you; it happens through you. You are the crucible, you are the catalyst, the furnace that melts down all probable realities into one homogeneous energy and crystallizes them into the realities you prefer to be.

Technique

We wll talk about a very straightforward powerful technique.

We guarantee that if you use it, you will find great changes occurring in all levels of your reality, but of course only as fast and only in what ways you prefer them to. It will not run out of control, as you say; it is to be used by you and applied by you where and when you want to, to get the results you desire.

We discussed earlier with you the notion that the critical ideas of the situations that happen to you in life are basically the product of how you define them to be, what your definitions are of the most likely type of atmosphere or circumstance that can occur to you.

Now, sometimes what can be of great assistance, as we have said, is getting in touch with what the definition is you already have, and then redefining it. In other words, you can say, “Well, if I have a reality I don’t prefer, in a meditative state, allow yourself to imagine what kind of a belief would you have to have in order to create the reality that you’re getting.”

Examine it honestly with yourself. Honest communication is necessary. You have to be very clear about why you’re getting what you’re getting and why you’re not getting what you’re not getting. You have to be very clear about what it is you really think about these things, what it is you really believe about these issues.

What would you believe if you did get it? Would you be different in a way you don’t want to be different? Do you have a belief that you have to be different in a way you don’t want to be if you got what you say you want?

Discuss it from every angle with yourself, for many times you will find the only thing keeping you from what you desire is simply your assumption of what it must be if you get it.

Many of you have many issues with abundance. Excitement and abundance are intimately connected. They are effects of the same thing, different sides of the same coin.

But many of you have created so many separations and definitions in your life about what it should be. Those definitions prevent you from experiencing what you want.

Many of you interpret abundance as monetary richness. It is a valid way, but let’s discuss that now, since that’s the way most of you are familiar with. Many of you say, “I’d love to be rich, but I can’t seem to be able to get rich. I see other rich people all the time, they are rich, I’m not, I’m jealous, I’m envious.” All right, fair enough. But remember, jealousy and envy are the result of judgments.

Judgments in the following way: if you are jealous and envious of someone else, what you are saying is, “They contain something I don’t.” Jealousy is when you recognize that someone else has something, but you don’t recognize that in order to be able to see it in them, you must contain it too. Remember, you cannot experience a reality you are not the vibration of. If you see something in them, you must also—in order to be able to see it in them—you must be capable of attaining it as well. Jealousy comes in when you judge that they have it and you don’t. When you understand that you also have the same potential, when you allow them to function as an example to you, then you get the opposite of jealousy: inspiration. Jealousy is when you discount yourself, when you invalidate them, you invalidate yourself, and you feel cut off from what you see. Inspiration is when you feel connected to what you see and use them as a living example of what you can also be if you want to be.

But if you also have within you certain definitions, let us say once again about the idea of being rich, then the following scenario happens.

You may not even know you have the following definition, but you may say, “Well, I want to be rich.” You may say this on the surface all the time, but you may focus on other people around you in a particular way. Maybe in the following way: you may have been brought up unconsciously to believe that all the individuals around you that you see that are rich have terrible, terrible habits and manners.

Oh yes, everyone knows rich people are, as you say, very snooty and do not care about anyone else, and they are quite atrocious in their behavior. And well, to sum it up in the English language, they are jerks. All right.

Many of you have these beliefs within you that in order to be rich, you have to act like a jerk. If you have that kind of a belief system within you and you don’t want to be a jerk, then you will also, as long as you make the association between that state and being rich, never be rich either, because you are keeping it away by defining that it will automatically bring you something else you don’t want.

You don’t have to define it that way. That is why it is essential many times to get in touch with what it is you do define, what your definition of the situation is, because once you realize that you may have had that kind of a definition, you can say, “Wait a minute, I don’t have to believe that. I don’t have to be that way. Just because I’m rich doesn’t mean I have to be a jerk. I can be who I want to be and be rich. I can be rich the way I want to be. I don’t have to associate one with the other.”

Therefore, there is no longer any stigma, no longer any taboo in allowing myself to be as rich as I can be, because I know I will be that way in the way I want to be, and I don’t have to follow the example of individuals who have done it outside of their integrity. I can maintain my integrity and be rich.

That is changing the definition. Once you have changed the definition, then nothing—if that definition is precise and clear and conviction exists strongly enough—nothing will stop that reality from flowing in your direction. Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing.

There is nothing to stop it anyway except you. Nothing to stop it. Nothing.

So the other way, another way in conjunction with the idea of finding out what the belief systems are that you already have, is to find the belief system you do want. And this is simply put in the following way: it has to do with excitement.

Excitement—what is it? What is excitement? How many of you really know what excitement actually is? You may know what it feels like, but what is it that you’re feeling when you feel excited about something?

Well, I’ll give you our definition. It may not be your definition, but it is our definition. It may work for you; it may not. Here it is: excitement is, to put it, as you say, simply, excitement—since you are feeling some right now—is the physical, physical, physical translation of the vibrational energy that represents what the path you chose to be.

In other words, whatever it is in life that excites you more than anything else excites you because that’s who you are and what you’re all about. Do it. Why hold back?

I’ll tell you why you hold back. You already know why you hold back. If you are holding back, because your society has taught you many things that contradict what you know you actually are.

Your society says, “Oh, well, yes, this excites you, does it, more than anything else? Well, that’s all well and good, but here it comes—that’s no way to make a living. Oh, don’t be such a child. Oh, grow up. Oh, that’s ridiculous. Oh, that’s silly. Oh, no one takes that seriously. Oh, well, that would make a nice hobby, but as a real job—this is the real reality.”

As you say, all those ideas stop you before you start, stop you from realizing that whatever it is that excites you the most, no matter how fantasy-like it may seem when compared to some of the more quote-unquote “realistic” ideas, on your planet is still nonetheless the thing that excites you the most, and as such is actually your signal and your sign for what it is in your life that will actually support you most abundantly.

Believe it or not, it all comes wrapped in one kit, one unbroken kit.

Whatever it is that excites you the most tells you three things: A, as we have said, this is who you are; B, because it is who you are, it will be one of the easiest things you could ever do; and C, because it is one of the easiest things you could ever do, you will be supported abundantly in whatever way you need to be supported to be allowed to continue to do the thing that you really are, because the universe supports you when you are what you know you are.

It supports you when you’re not, but it also creates resistance, because that is not who you were created as. It supports you negatively; it supports you by giving you the resistance to let you know who you are.

But your society has created so much limitation, so much segregation and separation, that you spend a great degree of time insisting on being who you’re not, and that’s what tires you out and why you are, as you say, wasted by the end of the day very often.

An individual that does what it is that is really apropos and true for them, what is really an expression of their unique creativity, is always overjoyed and energetic all through the day and actually finds that they need very little physical rest. That is why what you call many of your so-called geniuses seem to subsist on extremely little sleep, because they are fully involved in being who they are.

Sometimes you call them eccentric. Fair enough, but that may simply be the way they have to play the game to be who they are, and they are only eccentric when you compare them to the way your society judges that they ought to act. Who is to say how you ought to act to be who you are with integrity? Absolutely.

If you want to maintain who you are in a positive direction, if you are being who you are without integrity, then you usually create a type of resistance that creates all sorts of what you call problems. However, it doesn’t prevent you from being negative; you can be negative because you have free will.

But being negative creates more negativity and more separation and segregation in your life, because that is the way it accelerates in a negative direction. Being a positive and integrated individual always creates more unification and acceleration in the positive direction. That is simple physics. There is nothing mysterious about this at all.

What you put out is what you get back, plain and simple. At some point, one way or another, whether it seems to build up for a time, if nothing is happening right now, it will hit somewhere, somewhen.

Remember, you are infinite and eternal beings. One lifetime does not necessarily give you an indication of exactly the type of momentum you are storing up. You will experience it somewhere.

However, because this now is your so-called accelerated New Age, you will find many of you that many of the things that it may have previously taken you many lifetimes to live out can all be experienced right now in one life.

So you will find yourself so highly accelerated that now many of the things you do will, in that sense, come to you, will manifest in this life. Many of the things that you focus on are achievable in this life now.

So focus on the idea that excites you the most with integrity.

That is the first step: identifying, above and beyond anything else, the thing in life that really motivates you.

Now I do not necessarily mean that you have to come up right now with the thing that will be the most exciting thing you will ever do, but right now, out of all the things you are consciously aware of that are open and available to you, of all the things that are opportunities for you to act upon, of all the things you are capable of acting upon—that’s a key understanding—of all the things that you have the ability to do something about, pick the one at every given moment that excites you beyond anything else and do it with integrity.

You will always, by doing that, always be completely aligned, flawlessly, fluidly, effortlessly, and abundantly with the path you are. Excitement is the thread. It leads to all other things and circumstances that will excite you, all other growth and acceleration that will continue to excite you and give you the abilities you need to do the next most exciting thing that will come along automatically, synchronistically.

In your society, you say “coincidentally.” There are no accidents. Not one. No matter how small.

We are not saying everything is predetermined, everything is fated.

You create your own destiny, but you are an orchestration. You decide where you will go, what choices you will make, and you get the result of those choices.

If anything is predetermination, it is simply that what you choose will give you a result, and you are predestined to experience the result of your choice. But as soon as that is fulfilled, you’re at the crossroads again, and you make another choice.

You are always capable of choice. You are always capable of choosing. Always. And most importantly, you are always capable of transforming every situation into a positive one if you desire to.

Because, because, because—are you paying attention? Still, oh?—all situations are fundamentally neutral. No situation has built-in meaning. They are all blank, devoid of meaning. They’re all props. The meaning you have been taught to give to them determines the effect you get out of them. It is that simple.

If you give a positive meaning to a neutral situation, you will get a positive effect out of it, no matter what you may have previously been taught to believe the situation must mean, no matter how it looks on the surface.

If you give it for yourself a positive meaning, if you know you will be able to get something positive out of it, even if its original intention was negative, you will only get a positive effect out of it. If, however, you give it a negative meaning, the only thing you can get out of it is a negative effect.

Again, this is simple physics. You get out what you put in. Plain and simple. It is this principle—the only principle that actually exists for every being in creation. It is the only law. It is the structure of existence itself.

Everything else you call laws—whether moral, religious, political, social, economic, or scientific—are all based on the one structural law: what you put out is what you get back. It works for everyone, everywhere, everywhen. It is the only law there is.

Therefore, allow yourself to not be guided by the way things necessarily look. We are not saying to ignore when you know for a fact, through observation, that someone is doing something intentionally to harm in a negative way. We are not saying that you look at this and call it positive.

What we are saying is that you observe what is going on and know that it can be transformed into a positive idea, and the first step in doing so is to see what positive can come out of it, to live as a living example, a shining example of the fact that it can be transformed, and that will allow the other individuals, if they choose to, to see a way to turn it around.

Because every single time an individual does something outside of integrity, every time they do something negative, it is mostly because they don’t believe they have any other choice, because they believe they’re out of control, because they have been taught to believe they’re out of control.

And if they believe they’re out of control, they don’t believe the control exists within. The only way they believe they can gain control over their lives is to interact with what they see outside, and that means they feel that the only way to have control is to dominate what they see outside and who they see outside them.

But that is a downward spiral, which causes them to feel more desperate, more out of control, because the control is not out there; it’s in here already.

And if they feel that they are out of control and attempt to dominate their exterior, they create a sinking spiral of negativity. They feel they are going, as you say, down the drain. They feel alone, cut off. They reach and grasp desperately for whatever they can, and they try to take as many people with them as they possibly can, because they don’t want to be alone.

That is the reason, basically fundamentally, for all of what you would call your negative behavior and criminal activity upon your planet. It is because these people have been brought up to believe they are not in control already.

An individual that knows the control is there, that knows they are an aspect of the infinite, has the infinite power to create anything they want without having to hurt anyone else or themselves in order to create it, because the control is already there.

So: First Step: at any given moment, or as a career, any way you want to identify, what excites you the most, above and beyond anything else. First Step.

Second Step: not only identify what it is, but identify with it in the following way. You are beings of great emotionality. We have discussed that emotions are the activation mechanisms that bring manifestation into physical materiality. Emotion—energy in motion. Use it. It is the activation principle.

The stronger your desire for something, the easier and more quickly it can manifest. Your emotional content and magnitude literally reaches out and grabs it and pulls it in, literally out of all the possible realities you could have. Your emotions determine the vibrational pitch that determines what realities are capable of echoing that pitch, of fitting that mold.

So identify emotionally and physiologically, sensorially, with the thing that excites you in the following way. Now we already discussed the idea that you have seven physical senses and an eighth transcendental one, so when we say “use all your senses,” use all your senses, not just the five.

In the following way: now here’s where your imagination comes in. Your imagination is the single most powerful tool you have. It is everything. Here’s how to use it.

After you have used your imagination to determine what it is that excites you more than anything else, use your imagination to concoct a scenario in your mind’s eye, a picture. Visualize, if you will, see yourself in the scenario you want to be in, as you say, in full living color. Use every sense you have, as you say, to get into it, to become wrapped up in it, to be absorbed by that image.

Because if that image is truly representative of what you say is the most exciting thing you can imagine doing, you will be excited when you see it in your mind. You will lock into it, you will plug into it with all of your heart, all of your soul. You will feel it, you will taste it, you will hear as if you were that person, you will touch as if you were already that person, smell things in the way that you would do it.

Here’s a clue: don’t continue to see, hear, taste, feel, touch, smell, sense in the way the old you that you don’t prefer to be would do it. In other words, do not continue the habit of the old you. Look at the way the new you in that situation is handling things. Look at the difference in attitude, because you know that if you were that you doing that exciting thing, you would be acting differently than you’re acting now, would you not?

Look at the picture. Watch that you being ecstatic, handling things with assurance and conviction, with finesse and creativity, with grace and charm and ecstasy, sharing the joy, savoring the richness and the qualities of all the things that you see you doing that you say are the most exciting things you can think of to do.

Plug into it. Feel as that you would feel. That is a very critical step. Get used to feeling that junction with it. Feel that way.

If there is something going on in your life, some situation you don’t know how to handle as the you you are now, the you you’ve defined yourself to be so far, take that situation, concoct the imaginary you that you want to be, and hand the situation to that you. Sit back in your meditation and watch what that you does. Then, tied into the third step: physical activity. You are beings of physical action. Do physically what you see that you doing with the situation you have handed it, and you’ll get the same result. That’s what your imagination is for. It’s a template. Follow it. Mimic it. Mirror it. Match it. When you have the image of the you you want to be, act like that you, and you’ll get the lifestyle you see that you getting in that picture.

That’s the third step: after identifying what excites you, after identifying with the excitement emotionally, sensorially as you can, and I mean physically—physicalize it.

Make the props. Borrow the props, in that sense, that you feel are the closest representations of the things you would be dealing with, the people you would be interacting with, the places in which you would be interacting.

As closely as you can, surround yourself with the physical symbol, pictures, the props, or the real objects you would actually be having in the actual place, or the closest approximation to it you can concoct.

Literally build a set if you must, and then immerse yourself physically in it, acting as if you are already that person, becoming familiar with using the props, feeling the space around you that would be the space you would live in, you would work in if you were being that exciting person doing that exciting thing.

Create your environment to mimic as closely as you can the environment you want to be in, because then you will train yourself physiologically to react to those stimuli. You will retrain your physical body to react to the things you want to be surrounded with.

And you don’t necessarily have to do it all day long. You can set aside some play time, and you can concoct a special area in which you will go and immerse yourself, and for those ten minutes, purely, you will be nothing in that space but that person you want to be, acting in no other way but the way the person you say you want to be would act.

  1. Step one: identify the thing that excites you the most.
  2. Step two: identify with it emotionally, sensorially—create the image, see it, taste it, feel it.
  3. Step three: physicalize it, act it out literally as if you were an actor on a stage with props, as best as you can.

Do those three steps, and you will be amazed at how quickly the real reality will start flooding in.

You will generally find that when you go at it with this much conviction, almost no scenario you can conceive of will take any longer than between three days to three of your weeks to manifest some symbol that it is started to happen in your life. It doesn’t need to take any longer than that. It can happen in less time sometimes. It may take more time, but generally speaking, that is the average time span required for almost anything you could ever conceive of that has to do with you—if not to the full fruition of what you want, at least within that time span to see a symbol, a sign, an indication that things are starting to move in that direction.

When you see that, don’t stop. Keep going. Accelerate. Let that excite you all the more, give you that much more conviction to act it out even further.

Go and be with the type of people you think you need to be with to do the thing that excites you the most. Talk with them. Make them your colleagues. Now do not wait until the thing starts. Be whatever aspect of that thing you can be now. Do the things you could be doing now to set yourself up, because there are many times many things that you overlook simply because you are not looking for the obvious.

Use all the avenues that are open to you with integrity. Do the obvious and the simple things you could be doing to, as you say, put yourself out there, to advertise yourself as the person you want to be, to let other people know that’s who you are, so you can attract them to assist you.

Remember, assisting other people and being assisted by other people is a part of the sharing that makes it a whole idea. You are still doing it yourself even when you attract someone else to help. You don’t have to feel like if I don’t do it all by myself, every single step, I won’t have done it alone. Attracting the people who have the skills to help you that you have not necessarily been able to acquire is still doing it yourself because you attracted them.

Put it out there who you are. Let people know who you are so you can function as the unit you are, as a society. Stop being an isolated island. Put it out there: who are you? Advertise it. Act like it. Be that person. Do the things that person would do. Do not do the things the person would not do, otherwise all you’re doing is reinforcing who you say you don’t want to be.

Act this way with integrity. I guarantee 100% you will get the result, no exceptions, because it always works this way. You have always gotten what you have identified with, what you have acted as.

All we are doing once again is reminding you: you have a choice in the things that manifest. You are not a victim. You are in control. The only thing that makes life seem to victimize you is the fact that you have created and believe in the creation of your hidden unconscious self.

You are one being. Act like it, and you will have a life that is representative of that oneness. I can’t prove it to you. You, however, can prove it to yourself—easily, effortlessly, and deservedly so.

The most important factor I can now add is this, for this is the thing that most of you have the greatest degree of difficulty with. We have outlined already steps one, two, and three. In a sense, there is a fourth step. It is the simplest of all. Once again: Step One—identify what excites you. Step Two—identify with what excites you. Step Three—act it out. Step Four—are you ready? It is the most critical one of all. Are you sure you’re ready? Are you sure you’re sure? Yes? All right. I’m not—oh yes, I am. It is that easy. I have in no way, shape, or form left anything out. It is that simple.

Many of you may find from time to time that what you call your analytical mind, your judgmental self, your ego selves, may say, “Oh no, it’s got to be harder than that. That can’t be all there is to it. Can’t be that easy. That’s not complex enough. Life doesn’t work that way. I’ve always been told if I don’t struggle for something, it isn’t worth having. It’s got to be harder than that. Can’t I complicate it just a little bit to make it seem as if I’m doing something more important?”

Well, yes, you can. You can complicate it all you want. However, it doesn’t change the fact that it actually is that easy. It’s up to you. If you allow it to be that easy, it will work that easily. If you want it to be more complex, it will take more time.

Because of the way many of you have created yourselves to be, sometimes you will do over and over and over and over and over and over and over the thing you really don’t want to do, just because you find it hard to believe—until you get good and sick and tired of doing what you don’t want to do, that it is actually truly permissible and all right to do effortlessly what you really want to do.

Some of you just take a long time because you don’t believe there’s any other way until you reach the bottom of the barrel, and then finally, then when you’re at the bottom, do you finally allow yourself to realize every other choice is better than this. Everything is up ‘cause I can’t get any further down.

Sometimes you force yourself into those corners just so you will be absolutely sure there’s not one more thing you could do to complicate your life, just to check it all out, just to be sure I don’t want to miss anything. And then finally you will say, “Okay, it’s that.”

Now, some of you say, “I surrender.” It is all right to say that. But understand, by surrendering, we do not mean that you are giving up control. Some of you have a misunderstanding about that term in your society.

Yes, you do need to surrender, but when you surrender, what you’re actually doing is falling into the control you already effortlessly have. The only reason it doesn’t seem like you’re in control anymore is because you’ve always been taught to measure control through the amount of resistance you get.

When there’s no more resistance, you think, “Oh, it’s out of my hands. Something else must be doing it now. I’ve given it up. I’m not in control anymore. Something else is running my life.” Well, that’s fine. It’s much easier now.

But you are not giving up control; you are actually taking back responsibility—full responsibility—because you’re finally realizing that responsibility doesn’t have to mean blame. Responsibility means I have freedom to choose anything I want and get it, and I always have and I always will.

That’s responsibility. It is simply having the conviction to make a choice and to be responsible for the choice you make. If you find sometimes that you make choices and you don’t prefer them, all right. If you find that you have made choices out of integrity, all right, all right. Get back on track, as you say. Use it in a positive way, because now you can say, “Well, all right, now I know that’s what I don’t want to do, and so that gives me a much clearer idea of what I do want to do.”

Sometimes many of you do that as well. You keep doing things over and over and over again that you really don’t want to do, and by doing that, you ultimately define who you really are by now knowing who you’re really not.

And that’s one way too, and it’s valid. It’s just as valid as anything else, but it takes a long time. Taking time is valid too. But it’s up to you.

Allow yourselves to understand it is as simple as you will allow it to be. Because once again, miracles are the natural order of things. And after all, what this whole New Age is all about on your planet is learning how not so much to be normal, but to be natural. Natural.

Yes, there is still a consensus reality. Yes, there are many similarities in your world that you will continue to share with other individuals and agree must exist in order to play the game. But you have a lot of leeway in that game—a lot more than you think. Learn how much leeway you have now.

Whatever you can conceive of, whatever it is that excites you the most, it wouldn’t excite you if you were incapable of doing it. That would be pointless, wouldn’t it? The universe does not do pointless things. It would not give you something that excites you so much that you desire beyond everything else and then say, “No, I’m sorry, I was just showing it to you. You can’t really have it.”

For your society to assume that the universe works that way—well, that’s a fairy tale, as far as I am concerned. The universe does not work that way. What inspires you inspires you because it is what you are. It is the sign. The excitement itself is the sign.

All of you ask for all the time: “Oh, please, God. Oh, please, universe. Give me a sign. What is my mission? What is my purpose? Why am I here? Who am I?” Tap, tap, tap. “Hey, look at this exciting thing over here.” “Don’t bother me now, I’m looking for my purpose in life. Please give me a sign, please, I beg you.” Tap, tap, tap. “What about this exciting thing?” “I said leave me alone, can’t you see I’m about some very serious business? I’m trying to find out who I am.”

The excitement is telling you who you are. That’s the sign. What else could possibly get your attention so strongly but something that immerses you so completely? It is the sign. Go with it. Act on it with integrity. You will be denied nothing—nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing.

Now here is another little exercise that can help, perhaps. We call it “Mirror, Mirror.” And this is, shall we say, not meaning to put this in a derogatory term, a little bit of a test for you. Once you have decided what it is that excites you, look in a mirror. Look in your eyes. Pretend that the image in the mirror is actually someone else. Tell that “you” about the thing that excites you. Have that “you” ask you questions about it. Give that “you” some answers. And while you’re doing that little dialogue with yourself in the mirror, look into your eyes and see if you believe one word of what you’re saying. When you can trust that the image in the mirror absolutely believes every word it is saying, that’s when you know your definition is clear and when you have the conviction that it takes. Because if you doubt it, why should the universe give you something you say you can’t handle? “Well, this is what it would excite me, but, well, I don’t know, I doubt I can handle it. I don’t really believe I’m capable or worthy of receiving this.” The universe isn’t going to give you what you say you can’t handle. So Mirror, Mirror: see if you look convincing. See if you really believe what you say you believe.

And another little tool that you may find very valuable—we are just, as you say, talk full of them—it is called the Threshold of Believability. It is, if we have preferences at all, one of our favorites, because it works so very quickly, very quickly.

Let us say now you have an idea of what it is that excites you the most, but for some reason there’s some definition, some belief within you that says, “Well, I believe that I can be that me, but I believe it’s going to take me ten years.” All right, fair enough. Here’s how you can reduce the amount of time very simply: Threshold of Believability.

Have the image, plug into it, see it for all its worth, and then ask yourself a series of questions. Be honest once again. Honesty within your own dialogue is essential. Be honest with yourself. There’s nothing to fear. You don’t have to cheat. Everything will work out just fine.

Ask yourself this: all right, here’s the image, here’s the thing, this is what I want to be, this is what excites me the most. Now, beyond a shadow of a doubt—and I mean no hesitation whatsoever—do I believe that in twenty years I will be able to be that thing by then? Will twenty years be more than enough time for me to be what I say I want to be?

Twenty years, no problem. Not a shadow of doubt. That’s more than enough time. No problem. I have more than enough time in twenty years to become what I say I want to be.

Ten years? No problem. That’s a lot of time. I’ll be what I want to be well before that. Oh, yeah. Well, how much before that? Five years? No problem. Three years? Well, three… I don’t… that’s not enough. Four years? No. Five years? Well, yes, yes, five years is enough time.

Why is three years not enough time? I don’t know. Find out what beliefs you would have to have within you that say it would have to take five years and not three. Go back into your internal dialogue, find out what your definitions are. Discover what the definitions are that make it take five instead of three years. Change those definitions into what you prefer them to be.

Just use your imagination. Rewrite it. See it in a book. The old definition, if you want, stamp it out, rip it up, tear it up, throw it away. Get a new page, write the new definition in, close the book. Any way your imagination feels most excited doing it. Whatever way you can, as you say, get into it most with all your senses, do it. You have to chisel it into the side of a cliff—do that in your imagination. But somehow, erase the old definition that you have discovered and replace it with the new definition.

Once you have replaced the new definition, take the test over again. Ten years—yes, that was no problem before, it’s still no problem. Five years—absolutely, five years is more than enough time to be what I want to be. Three years—with the new definition, I know that three years is more than enough time, is easily enough time to be what excites me the most. Two years? Yes. One year? No problem. Six months? Ah, well… maybe.

All right. Do the process over and over and over again. Every time, the second—the moment—you find that at any level, the slightest hesitation, that is the spot, that amount of time at that moment is exactly what it will take to be what you say excites you. Change it, however you want to, by redefining it and allowing it to take less time if you want to. Once you get it down to something you feel is truly comfortable, then leave it there and assume that is the answer: that’s how long it will take. Absolutely.

But bring up all the fears, bring up all the definitions, bring up all the doubts. Process it. Go through it. Don’t deny them. Denial is your single most critical factor for preventing what you want. Denial. Don’t deny anything. Don’t even deny the denial. Do not judge yourself. If you have judged, fine. Change your mind about doing it, and don’t spend time judging yourself for having judged; it only adds more to the negativity.

Be clear of negativity. Be clear of intention. Be clear of your own purpose. Know that what you are doing you are doing out of integrity, out of love, out of service for everyone else. Because as soon as you allow yourself to be the fullest possible being you can be, doing what excites you the most—which is, after all, your purpose in life, to be the fullest being you can be—then you are a fulfilled person that all other people can avail themselves of, can be served by, and then can serve you in turn.

Only when you act in a complete manner do you connect yourself to everything and avail yourself of everything. Only when you support the whole can you be supported by the whole.

So use those tools: the three steps of imagination as we discussed—identification and emotionality and acting; the Mirror, Mirror technique; and the Threshold of Believability. From all these different angles, if you use these tools, you will have a sharp, cutting-edge clarity and precision and awareness, and you will be the authors and the artists, consciously, of your reality.

You already are the authors of your reality. You might as well be conscious of it, and you might as well have the reality you prefer, because you’re going to create one anyway, because you are a creator, because you were made that way.

So you might as well have the one you prefer, knowing that the one you really prefer is the one that will be of best service to everyone else, because you fit then. It’s no accident that you are where you are when you are there. Be a fully realized being in that moment, and you will be a connective link for everyone else.

You all follow along. Very simple, and very exciting because it is so simple. Guaranteed 100%. There are no exceptions. Not you, not you, not you. No exemptions. As you said, the universe works the same way for everyone: what you put out, what you get back. It is completely unbiased, and it gives you what you say you want.

Now, I have one more suggestion as a meditation on this particular subject of excitement and abundance. Remember that you already contain everything. Abundance is not an issue of getting what you don’t have; it’s an issue of understanding that you already contain it. Definition—another one: abundance is the ability to do what you want to do when you want to do it. It comes in any number of forms. Money is one way in your society. It doesn’t exist in ours, but it’s valid. But it isn’t the only way. Sometimes someone will trade you, sometimes someone will simply give you, sometimes you will exchange in a various number of ways for something. If you insist that it must be represented by money, you are closing all the other doors through which abundance might come more easily. Let it take the path of least resistance by allowing all the ways it could come to be equal. Don’t put such a heavy burden on it having to be one way, and you will allow it to come to you in whatever way is the quickest way. Because if you can still do what you want to do when you want to do it, you have all the abundance you need. Let it be that definition.

Therefore, here is a tool. Now, some of you may find that you want to use this; some of you may find that you don’t. It’s a suggestion. It has had profound impact for some individuals. Some individuals find it scary, but that’s all right. Examine why you find it scary, and you’ll learn a lot about yourself in the process. And here it is: whatever you do not specifically forbid will happen. See if that works for you. Some of you may say, “All of it? Everything? What if I forget to forbid something?” Assume that you will choose what you really prefer, and that anything else will simply not be capable of manifesting in your reality. But everything else will. Everything else will.

The library analogy: you can go into one of your libraries, and on the shelves there are many books. There are joyful books, delightful books, there are scary books. You can sit there in that library all day, all night. You can read every book on the shelf. You can be overjoyed at some stories, and you can scare yourself silly with other ones. The only stories you will take home with you are the ones you decide to check out on purpose. All the rest stay on the shelves. Just because you have thought about it doesn’t mean it will manifest if you don’t give it the power by assuming it has the power on its own. It will not develop in your life until you choose it. Fearing something above and beyond anything else is giving it the power, because you are saying by your fear that you believe that this is the most likely reality above and beyond all the realities, and that’s what draws it in. Remember, we said the strongest emotion—fear is an emotion. So choose, and understand that your choices stick. Why? Because you say so. It’s that simple. It’s that.

And now, let us go a little bit beyond the idea of physiological reality, so that you can incorporate the non-physical reality as well, so that you can blend an understanding of physical and non-physical reality into one experience that we will call Dreamtime. We do not necessarily refer to the idea when you are asleep. We are talking about understanding that you are dreaming right now. Right now, you are dreaming. Right now, yes. Right now, you are literally dreaming right now.

All dreams—not always literally, sometimes symbolically, but nonetheless—all dreams are real experiences on a real level of reality. Sometimes you interpret them symbolically because that’s the best your conscious mind can do with what it has to work with in physical language.

So your dreams are not always literal, but they are always real. Real experiences. And you are living a dream right now.

The only major difference between what you call solid physical reality and ethereal, airy dreams is because you define this dream as being more solid than those. There is no difference other than that.

That’s why you can change physical reality so quickly—because it is only what you dream it to be. That’s the power you have. That’s all it takes: the absolute conviction and the assumption that something is real, and it is so.

Remember, every system of belief brings with it its own self-fulfilling structure to reinforce its validity, so that that system for that moment seems to be the only valid one. Otherwise, if that were not so, you couldn’t experience it as an isolated system.

That’s why you have all these wars upon your planet, saying, “This is the real belief, this is the real truth, mine works, that’s why I know it’s real. Mine works, that’s why I know it’s real.” They all work. They’re all real. They’re all true.

When you believe in it, it reinforces its own validity and makes it seem as if it’s the only one around, because that’s the nature of focus. But anytime you change your focus, the new reality becomes just as valid, just as solid, just as immutable as the last one. They’re all real.

That’s the act of creation.

But let’s look into a few more realities right now. Let’s dissolve the barriers a little bit. Astral expansion. You know how many breaths to take—three big ones. Close your eyes if you wish, and take yourself back to your place of perfect peace, where in all reality you have never actually left. Remember, you are always at the center. You just change the way it looks.

And now, the way this time your place of perfect peace will look is as follows. Our suggestion: imagine yourself on a bright and beautiful day or night—doesn’t matter—sitting on a bench, a comfortable bench, on the side of a stream, on the side of a street, on the side of a path—doesn’t matter. But across the stream, across the street, is a building, a structure of some sort. It has many windows. There are many people inside doing interesting, curious, fascinating things, discovering many things. Your curiosity is attracted to find out what’s going on in that building. Yet at the same time, you are so comfortable on the bench you don’t want to move.

How to solve this? Ah, your imagination says, “I have a way.” And instantly, in front of you materializes a telescope, or binoculars, or a magnifying glass of some sort, so that when you hold it up to your eyes, lo and behold, it is as if you are in that building, in any room you want to be in. So close is the image in front of your eyes that it is as if you are truly there. You say, “How wonderful, how marvelous, how clever! I can be on the bench where I want to be, and yet at the same time I can extend my senses into that building, my vision into that building, through the use of this magnification glass.” How wonderful.

And just to be sure you’re still on the bench—so real the image is in front of you—you lower the glass, and yes, there’s the building over there. Here you are on the bench. Just checking.

Raising the glass again, you notice anything at all you want to notice. You are looking through the glass, and everything that you want to draw your attention to is as if it is inches in front of your eyes: any person, any wall. You are like a spirit, like a specter, peering over their shoulders, looking at their books, looking at their machines, walking through doors, going upstairs, downstairs. You even discover that you can go through the walls, through the ceiling, through the floor. You can look at anything you want.

And your fascination and your curiosity knows no bounds, and you go up and down and all over, around, following people, watching them, listening to their conversations. You notice that your hearing is with you as well, and your vision is independent. Anywhere you want it to be.

And all of a sudden, something dawns upon you, and you decide that you will do a little experiment. And you take your vision and you turn it 180 degrees around, and look out the window of the building, and yes, lo and behold, there you are on the bench across the stream, across the street, holding up the magnifying glass. But your vision is now over here in the building. And you realize with a snap that you are released from any prior conceptions that your senses and your body must coexist in the same focus.

You have begun now to realize that your consciousness is as a bubble that expands to any diameter, and as it expands, wherever the skin of that bubble is, that’s where your consciousness is. That’s the illusion of leaving your body: it is expanding the bubble of your consciousness so that your body is simply at the center. But anywhere on that skin, you can open an eye, open an ear, no matter what the diameter. You can be anywhere, anywhen.

And with that realization, you snap back to your body, back to your focus, and you take down the glass. And you feel so invigorated, so different, so new. And all of a sudden, all the scenery around you undergoes a startling transformation. It is as if the building, the trees, the day—everything around you except for the bench and except for yourself—begins to shimmer and waver like a mirage of heat, turning transparent, becoming illusionary. Everything becoming ghost-like, wavering, wavering, wavering, illusionary.

And all of a sudden, you begin to see more and more objects around; they are also illusionary, wavering, but there are extra trees, extra buildings, extra people, all walking through each other. They are in different realities. You are looking through the veil of different probable realities, different futures, different pasts. They’re all overlapping here and now. They do not see each other, but you see them all, and they do not see you. They are living their own lives with their own focus, not necessarily knowing they can expand beyond to see the other reality. But you have broken through the veil. You see them all, going about their business. Some of them even walk through you. You are a ghost, a specter to them, but you see them all.

And all of a sudden, your attention is caught by something to one side, and something else over there, and again over there. And what you do is you focus a little bit here, a little bit there, and all of a sudden you realize what you’re seeing is a person sitting on a bench like you—there, and there, and there.

Different people, different gender, different types, sitting on a bench. Solid. They seem solid, not ghost-like like all the other people. And you realize why they are solid: because they are all the other versions of you in all those other lives that are realizing right now, at the same moment you are in this one, that you can see all the other realities.

You are watching yourself watch yourself watching All-That-Is. You are seeing the reflections in all the facets of the multi-dimensional crystal—all the reflections, all the versions, all the variations of the vibrational lives you are living simultaneously right now.

And you nod, and they acknowledge with a return nod at the same time. And you realize at that moment that all of your lives in all dimensions and all realities right now, in their own way, whatever way makes the best sense to them, are all realizing that you’re all one being.

You are all one being manifesting in all the multi-dimensional, simultaneous ways you can. You are everywhere, everyone, in all possible configurations.

Everyone is you. You are everyone. Everything is the same one thing manifesting in all the ways it can right now.

With that realization, everything turns into one blinding white light, and then disappears, and you are floating in space. And you see an infinite number of sparkling stars, and you know each and every one of those is not so much a star but a consciousness, a reflection of the light you are. For you are a star as well—an entire universe glowing, one of the many multiverses within All-That-Is. Take three deep breaths and lock it in. You are infinite. You are eternal. You are made in the image of God. You are it, and it is you. Open your eyes once again. You are new beings at a new moment, the very first moment. Every moment, zero, from the beginning, in any way and every way you prefer it to be. It is your choice. Use it.

Watch your dream realities from this moment forward. You will find that your physical reality and your dream reality will begin to blend. Do not fear. You are not losing your identity; you are gaining it. Let the structure go. The structure exists within you anyway. Let it dissolve. You decide the reality that you are, and it is so. It always has been and forever shall be. That easy. One. 100%.

Questions

Dream Reality

Jenny Raven
When we awaken from this dreamlike reality, thought, will we awaken to the dream you wish to live?
Bashar
Bashar
You will awake and live the dream you prefer to be. It is all a dream. It is all real. The idea of calling it a dream, the idea of calling it a reality, are arbitrary and simplified definitions. They are simply labels. It is existence itself. You are life itself. Live and be the life you prefer to be. It will be what you wish it to be.

I’m interested in hearing a little bit about how I integrate the things that institutional religion—which is going to church, enjoying that kind of worship—yes—and how those two things fit together comfortably.
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
They can very simply. Do you believe that you yourself, regardless of what ritual you surround it with—and I do not mean that derogatorily—do you believe that you yourself are the primary relationship to the creation? Then it blends, does it not? Anything that you do in your institutionalized religion is simply whatever tool you feel is necessary to allow you to be in touch as the aspect of creation that you are. Sometimes it may change; sometimes it won’t. All tools are valid. If you simply arrive at a moment where you feel that the tool you’ve been using no longer serves you, change it.

I would like to hear a little bit about the changes that are going on in science now, and how the what they call the shifts in the paradigm of science—how quickly that will be integrated into other aspects of our lives, or whether it will be.

As we perceive your energy now, it will be within what you would call the next 30 to 50 of your years, maximum, completely integrated. And the biggest shift that is now going on in what you call your physical sciences is the understanding, the recognition, that physiological reality does not really empirically exist apart from what you define it to be. In other words, your scientists are beginning, slowly perhaps at first, but beginning to understand that each and every one of you actually do create your own reality.

That will be integrated within what you call the next 30 to 50 of your years, maximum, as we perceive your energy now.

Welcome to Colombia. I have a teenage daughter that I’m very concerned about. I would like to be able to—I’d like to know what is the best way to help her. I have not been the type of role model for her that I would like to have been, and any suggestions you have would be—

Everyone chooses to be with whom they are with? Yes. Do you understand that you choose your children, that you choose your parents? Yes. Then do you understand she chose you?

Yes.

Then do you understand that as long as you are being who you truly believe you need to be, with all the integrity you can muster, the best you can be, that you are being the person that that individual chose to be born to? Yes.

The only thing you really need to teach your children is the following thing? Once again, we shall repeat it: Every individual is already as powerful as he or she needs to be to create any reality they desire, without having to hurt anyone else or themselves in order to create it.

We shall repeat it: Every individual is already as powerful as he or she needs to be to create any reality they desire, without having to hurt anyone else or themselves in order to create it.

If your child has that understanding, really the only other thing you need to say to them is “Go to it, kid.” Everything else is your ballgame.

If you follow that simple understanding, that what you put out is what you get back, there are no other limitations. Understand? Yes.

So if you can share that information with her, then you will be fulfilling, in a sense, your purpose as an adult, as a parent of that child. Give that child the space to understand that they are already powerful enough to achieve anything without struggle, regardless of what the mainstream of your society may seem to say at this time.
