Creative Conflict

The Nature of Conflict and Creative Challenge

You do not need struggle and pain in your life anymore. Your lives can be effortless and joyful. You can bring into manifestation the lifestyle that is representative of your highest excitement, your creativity, your love, your joy.

But we wish to understand together that many times the ideas that we transmit telepathically are translated into certain words in your language, and you only have so many words to represent so many concepts.

So we would like to make it clear at this time that when we have talked about the idea of removing conflict from your life, we are talking about the idea of the destructive forms of this concept. We are not talking about the removal of the constructive forms of this concept.

Creative conflict, as you already all know, is essential for the idea of every story of all growth. Creative and constructive conflict is what we usually refer to when the word in your language “challenge” comes up.

You all know that you must have thresholds that challenge you in order to expand, to stretch, to grow, to become more and more of yourself. So when we talk about the idea of removing conflict from your lives, we are only talking about the idea of removing confusion, lack of clarity, the idea of the suffering of pain, the idea of feeling lost or succumbing to victimization, or the idea of giving your power away. Those are the things we are talking about changing.

But we are not taking away creative, constructive challenge—that kind of character-building conflict.

We wish to make this clear because we understand that sometimes the use of certain words in your language makes things confusing.

We are not saying that your future and your life of excitement and ecstasy will be in any way, shape, or form bland. We are not saying that the removal of conflict will mean that you are sitting around doing nothing, that you will experience no kinds of challenges, no kinds of change, no kinds of investigation of your curiosity. Those are the things that will continue and must continue in order for you to create background, so to speak, against which you can see how far you’ve come.

To create the idea of something that will lure you into expanding yourself and expressing yourself more creatively—you will not lose that. You will never lose that. Our civilization has not lost that. No civilization that we know of has lost that—not that kind of constructive and creative challenging conflict.

That is always necessary to allow you to have perspective, to expand beyond that perspective, to create a new perspective, and yet again expand beyond that one, forever and ever, to become all that you can be, all that you are.

So please do not assume we are talking about a life of boredom when we say that you will remove conflict, that you will have no more challenges—for that is not what we mean.

Every story, in order to be a story, must in that sense be a change, a perspective that shifts. In order to do that, there must be what at first might appear to be an obstacle, but which, if utilized creatively, will be transformed into an opportunity and a challenge that will allow you to expand and will become not an impediment to your joy but part of your joy.

You will welcome these things, for they will be seen with your new attitudes, with your new perspectives. They will be seen for the portions of your own consciousness that they are, and that you are in fact challenging yourselves to become everything that you know deep down you were created to be—as your unique aspects of All-That-Is, of the infinite, of the Creator, however you wish to call it.

Hybrid Children, Grays, and Abduction Experiences

Asker: I have some questions about the hybrids and the Grays. First of all, do hybrid children come to our planet?

Bashar: No, not yet. They come close but do not set foot upon your planet. Understand—“close” is a relative term. Coming to your planet is a relative term. They may be perhaps several thousand miles away at any given moment. You could say they have come to your planet, but they are not on your planet at this time. That is premature.

There are however hybrids that are beyond the age you call children. Sometimes those have set foot upon your planet from time to time, but they are not what we refer to as the hybrid children in general.

Asker: I was talking to somebody about my own hybrid children and I found that I had a block on one of their names for a period of time.

Bashar: Not all of them have names.

Asker: Mine do—not all of them do. The three that I know of. I found that I blocked it. I thought it was interesting that I’m obviously still blocking, but there may be purpose in this.

Bashar: Do not necessarily automatically label or assume what you perceive to be a blockage always as a negative thing. Let it serve you for how it manifests. Let what is be what needs to be so that then what is can become something else. Do not fight against it.

If you perceive that there is in a sense a blank, that there is somehow an inability to access certain information, then for the moment let that be all right. For in letting it be all right, you will allow yourself to move through it. Only in fighting against letting that be all right will you maintain what appears to be a block.

Asker: I’m reading a book of a collection of letters people have written to Whitley Strieber regarding their own experiences. It seems there’s a recurring motif of a fear of closets. Why is it that Grays seem to come out of closets?

Bashar: It is not always that they do, though sometimes they have. The idea is that you must again understand that this is more than just a physical phenomenology.

It is beyond that. It encompasses your very consciousness. It engages your very consciousness. It is made from your very consciousness while at the same time it comes from other levels of consciousness as well.

The consciousness of your archetypal fears—the dark closets, the things that they may harbor—are sometimes the portals that you yourselves create, through which other beings then find it easier to come because you have created those portals.

your physical reality is only a projection of your consciousness. This does not make it unreal, but it is only as real as the combination of the collective consciousness of your own individual self and of your society.

So when you have your own metaphors, your own analogies of things coming out of the closet, when you use those terms yourself, you actually create realities in which those ideas themselves become doorways and gateways to allow the passage of beings from other dimensions to enter your own.

Asker: A story I’m working on involves a human male having abduction experiences and experiences with his hybrid children. In my story he has a gray assistant that guides him. Is it true that most abductees have assistance in the gray world or a guide?

Bashar: Most are themselves in another form. The gray guide that we’ve discussed—Azie—is he a future self of you?

Asker: Or it is not always correct to label it a future self, but perhaps more accurately an alternate self from another paradigm. In that context, yes, it is accurate to say it is another version of that consciousness that you consider yourself to be, or perhaps more precisely that consciousness which also simultaneously gives rise to the personality that you consider yourself to be on Earth.

Asker: Are the guides usually the same sex or opposite sex?

Bashar: It can vary. But of course in the case of the idea of the Grays, you are talking about beings that on many levels do not actually have sex anymore, do not have sexual identity anymore.

They may express a type of energy that you may perceive as male energy or female energy, but this does not always correlate to the idea of physiological sex. They are in fact in many cases genderless, and that is one of the reasons why the hybridization is occurring—so that they may in a sense reclaim the idea of sexual identity that through various occurrences they removed from their society long ago.

Asker: Last week I noticed I had another three marks on my thigh in a triangular formation. I had the same situation months ago that you said you couldn’t discuss at that time.

Bashar: I can’t discuss it now.

Asker: Have the Grays been involved with my particular family because of their interest in the history of lupus in my family?

Bashar: Not because of that. They have been involved with your family line, but not because of that per se. It is one factor they take into account, but not because of that in the sense that that is a foundational reason. This was begun long ago.

Asker: A new book by Dr. Jacobs states he’s discovered the Grays are creating the hybrid children to take over the planet.

Bashar: Take over which planet? This planet? Earth?

Perhaps more education and more information would be wise before you ask a question that is removed in context.

Personal Hybrids, Entities, and Healing

Asker: I came across a book called “Emissaries of Light.” we talked about my hybrid daughter. I was trying to get to the name and you told me to stay in the R’s because I was so far off. I have come up with Rebecca. Am I off?

Bashar: Are you off? What is that—the name? I’m not going to tell you. Do you feel that it is the name?

Asker: I feel like that’s the name.

Bashar: Why? Because it was easy when it came. Are you saying it works for you?

Asker: Yeah.

Bashar: Then for now it’s the name. What is the measure of anything in reality? What works for you.

Asker: I want to talk to you a little bit about the entity Val Sage. Why is he a hybrid?

Bashar: My curiosity. Not enough.

Asker: Not enough? Okay. Because he’s been on my mind.

Bashar: On your mind. Is he—

Asker: No, actually he sort of just flints around, so he’s very light.

Bashar: Flint. All right. It is a type of hybrid energy, yes. Cryptic though that answer may be, you are moving in general—very general—the right direction. But it is not exactly what you think. When I use the term hybrid in this particular instance, it is not what you typically think of as a hybrid, but perhaps that word will do.

Asker: I have some questions on entities. I was told a month ago that I had two entities effectively pulling off my energy, sapping my energy.

Bashar: Why would they do that? Perhaps the more important question—why would you believe they have the ability to do that?

Asker: I guess that has to do a little bit with the definition of what is an entity. My own definition is it’s an energy form that is essentially a negative energy.

Bashar: No, that is not the definition of the term entity. Entity is simply a focus of consciousness of any type and any variation. You are an entity. I am an entity. Everyone in the room with you is an entity of sorts. Entities can be physical, non-physical, ultra-dimensional—anything. Entity is simply an overall general term.

There are entities that are focused in negative energy. There are entities that are focused in positive energy. If you are referring to the idea of these entities as being focused in negative energy, then it must be specifically stated that that is what you feel.

Asker: That’s what I meant. I thought that all entities were that way, but these were negative energies particularly. My question still stands as being the paramount question.

Bashar: Why would you believe that they have the capability of doing so?

Asker: I was told that they did by somebody who’s a lot more psychic than I am.

Bashar: But you fell into fear. The person removed the entity—

Asker: One of my questions: that person cannot remove anything that is connected with your process. Only you can. They can help, they can suggest, they can in a sense work to suggest a creative energy or environment or a level of energy or frequency that would represent your inability to interact with negative entities, but they cannot remove them. Only you can.

You are now bringing this question up. I would suggest that in some level what is simply being pointed out is that there are certain definitions within you that are causing fear that would by definition then allow you to remain on a negative energy level and have a better chance of associating with other entities of a similar wavelength.

Asker: When you say fear—I have always felt that there are no negative entities around me partly because I somehow associate negative entities as being involved with people that are involved with alcohol, drugs, or some of those things that are more easily accessible than I am. I’m not involved with those.

Bashar: It doesn’t have to be connected to any of those particular things on your planet in order for it to be negative. There are many other reasons that entities choose to be negative in creation. The idea is—what is your fear?

Asker: My fear is really that there would be a negative entity about me.

Bashar: But the point is that you’re focusing on—so what’s your fear?

Asker: That effectively is stopping or slowing down my healing.

Bashar: All right. And why do you believe in this definition as being true?

Asker: Again, the person I was working with said that—

Bashar: Don’t pawn it off on them. No matter what they said, why are you buying into it?

When individuals say things like that to you, they are in some senses doing you the service of deciding whether or not that’s something you’re going to buy into. Now sometimes an individual will because of their own agendas perceive things that way. Sometimes they will simply perceive objectively what may be going on in reading your energy.

But that’s really not the point. Whether they are projecting their own fears on you, interpreting something negatively that doesn’t need to be interpreted that way, or whether they are actually perceiving something that is truly going on—doesn’t matter really fundamentally. Because the way to transform either of those issues is the same.

Once the idea has been brought to your attention, whether it’s actually happening or not, the question that remains and the only issue at hand is: What do you think about that? What do you feel about that? Is it real for you, or are you able to use it as an opportunity to decide that it isn’t real for you?

If it illuminates that you might have a doubt or a fear that something of that nature has more power over your life than you do, then that is the reason why someone would bring that to your attention. They may have psychically sensed that you needed to have it brought to your attention in order to point out to you that you are still willing to give your power over to that kind of an idea.

That in of itself then is the meaning of dealing with a negative entity.

Asker: I hear you. I was never particularly sensitive to protecting myself from negative entities.

Bashar: I understand that, but the point is that we’re having this discussion, and therefore what we are implying is that at this point, no matter what has gone before, you have allowed yourself to experience the concept you call doubt. My question is: If you didn’t experience this before, why are you experiencing it now?

Asker: Primarily because one of my primary focuses in life right now is my healing. My body is in good shape and still is not.

Bashar: The idea is that you’re still using this concept as a furthering of the reason why you feel you are not healing. The point is that what has been pointed out to you is that there is still within you a belief system structure that allows you to experience the giving away of your power, and that that act in and of itself is responsible for anything that you may perceive as a lack of healing within you.

It is a self-fulfilling energy, a self-contained loop.

Asker: I hear you. I don’t have the confidence that I can heal myself, and I’m looking for scapegoats. A negative energy would be a scapegoat to say, well, it’s that thing that’s causing it, and it just substantiates that I don’t have the confidence to heal myself.

Bashar: I would not necessarily put it that way. It is not lack of confidence. What is being said is you are making a choice to buy into that frame of mind. It has nothing at all to do with a lack of confidence.

The idea is that none of you lack anything. You don’t lack confidence, you don’t lack trust, you don’t lack ability, you don’t lack power. None of you are lacking anything. You all have sufficient power to do anything.

Therefore, the issue at hand is there might be definitions within you that are allowing you to be motivated to make certain choices to believe a certain way. That is not the same thing as lacking confidence. That is saying that for your own reasons, you have unconsciously bought into—you are making a choice in that direction. That’s not a lack of confidence, that’s a choice.

Asker: How do I change my choice?

Bashar: The first step is to acknowledge and recognize that this is what has been presented to you—that it is nothing but an opportunity to recognize that fact, that you are capable of making choices.

If someone says to you, “I perceive you have 5,287 and a half negative entities sucking all your energy away, and that’s why you are not healing”—that is for you nothing but a choice to buy into or to say that is not a reflection of who I prefer to be.

To think that way, to see life in that light, is not an equation that has to do with me. If in fact that is what I am doing—is giving my power away—then being told this is opportunity to instantaneously and immediately be put in touch with the fact that that’s what I’m doing, and to understand that I am choosing now to do something different.

That whole concept of being sucked dry by a negative energy now has nothing to do with me. And if there is still something else going on, then it is something else. If there is still some effect that I’m experiencing that is not what I prefer, it’s something else, and I have now an opportunity to know what it is not—which is one more way, one step closer to discovering what it is.

Asker: I’m not really getting it. What you say makes sense, but I’m still trying to get in touch with what do I do now.

Bashar: You don’t know how to apply what I am saying?

Asker: Yeah.

Bashar: All right. Describe again the idea of what you perceive to be your need for healing.

Asker: My need for healing on the physical level—I’m talking about both physical and emotional by the way.

Bashar: It always starts in some senses on the emotional level. What is the physical manifestation?

Asker: The physical manifestation is that my body has what our traditional medical system analyzes as MS, which is effectively nervous system, muscular system impact. I feel clumsy and I’m not as dexterous as I used to be.

Bashar: The idea in general of what your people call MS is actually a high degree of toxicity that is impinging upon the neurological system. It has to do with the idea of cleansing of the system, alignment of the energies of the system, clearing the cellular structure and neurological structure of the system, as best as you can in natural ways.

The idea is again connecting it to the emotional body—the clearing of that system. Can you in any way, shape, or form pinpoint the idea of disease on the emotional level?

Asker: On the emotional level, I am not very much in touch with my feelings. I don’t allow my feelings to come through very much. My mind basically runs the show.

Bashar: And what do you fear would happen if they did? What is the fear? What is the toxic belief that is festering within you that says if I allow myself to express my emotions, this will happen—and I’m afraid of having that happen? Can you pinpoint it in words?

Asker: It’s essentially that I’m out of control of my life, that other people will take advantage of me.

Bashar: Very good. Thank you for your honesty. Is it any wonder with this kind of a belief that you would attract yourself to someone who would tell you that this is already being done on a spiritual level?

Do you get the point? You have attracted yourself to someone who is telling you that what it is you fear the most will happen is already happening—entities are sucking your energy, taking advantage of you.

Do you understand that’s what you have just said you are afraid will happen if you do express your emotionality. But suddenly you find yourself going to someone who tells you it’s already happening whether you express your emotionality or not—it’s already happening.

What does that tell you?

Asker: That my fear is the very thing itself that will bring about the reality you fear.

Bashar: The expression of your emotionality in a constructive way is not what will bring it out. The fear itself of expressing your emotionality is what is bringing about what you fear your emotionality will bring about. That’s the paradox.

Asker: How do I get over that?

Bashar: Now pay attention. Here is where you are splitting yourself. I have just told you that the fear itself is causing what you fear will happen, and yet knowing that wasn’t enough to let go of the fear.

You see, you’re doing it again. You think that some rare process is necessary. Knowing—accepting fully what I have just told you—will be the process. There is nothing additional required. No other additional process is necessary.

If you understand that the fear itself is causing what you fear, why would you hold on to it? Why wouldn’t it simply automatically be let go of? Why would you need to do anything special to let go of it?

The question is: knowing that the fear is the thing that’s creating what you say you don’t want, why are you still holding on to it? It is not about learning to have a process of letting it go. It’s about understanding that you are choosing to keep it because if you didn’t choose to keep it, it would be gone.

Nothing can stay in your reality that you do not choose to keep. So it’s not about learning how to get rid of it or let it go. It’s about understanding why you think it’s important to hold on to it. How does it serve you to hold on to that fear?

Asker: There are some apparently some payoffs.

Bashar: Yes. For everything that all of you do, you have invented in your mind a payoff, because you don’t do anything without a reason. You don’t experience any reality without being motivated to choose that reality. Your motivations are based on the definitions you have of what you have been taught to perceive as more pleasurable and less painful than something else.

Holding on to the fear, if that’s what you’re doing, must therefore be being defined by you as the lesser of two evils. Otherwise it would disappear instantly.

How is it that you’re defining your fear that makes you have the motivation to continue to experience it? That’s the question.

Or in knowing that expressing your emotions is the lesser of two evils, why then is that not sufficient knowledge to allow you to begin to let yourself feel and let go of the fear of feeling?

Asker: I find myself in a certain pattern.

Bashar: A pattern is something that you do that you don’t know you’re doing. Once you know you’re doing it, it’s not a pattern—the pattern’s gone. It’s a choice. If you keep doing it, the question is why do you keep choosing it? It’s not a pattern, it’s a choice.

A pattern is something that you do unconsciously. You don’t know you’re doing it. But you know you’re doing this, so you’re choosing it. It’s not a pattern. The pattern’s gone once you know it’s a pattern, once you know it’s a habit, once you know you’ve been doing something by habit, you don’t have the habit anymore. The knowledge of the habit erases the habit. If you keep doing it, you’re doing it for your own reasons.

You have to find out what those reasons are. You cannot blame it on pattern. Pattern is inertia, pattern is momentum. If you know it’s there, the momentum is gone, the inertia is gone. Knowledge erases momentum and inertia. You start from scratch, zero, as soon as you’re aware of it. As soon as you’re aware you have been doing it, it’s gone. So if you keep repeating the behavior, it’s because something in your definition says you should choose to. You can’t blame it on pattern anymore.

Asker: Is there a time factor in all this?

Bashar: You change instantly, but it’s hard to do.

Asker: Probably not necessarily. The idea of how fast or how slow that occurs is again the product of whatever it is you believe you need to understand in order to be willing to let it change. But that’s up to you. That pacing is completely up to you.

It’s not that it’s more or less difficult to change or that it must take more or less time. It’s completely taking its cue based on your willingness to let it be all right for the change to occur, and what that change implies to your belief system.

For example, an individual who senses that allowing themselves to change would mean that there would be no more excuse to not express their full power as a being—and if they are afraid of doing that for some reason because they have defined that expressing your full power is negative—then they will regulate themselves to make it take more time to change because they are not willing to believe that expressing full power is a beneficial thing.

But if instantaneously you understand that being your full self is who you truly choose to be, and you have no definition and no reason to prevent yourself from believing that, then the change will be instantaneous. That’s all there is to it.

Asker: In my case, I have made a choice that says letting the feelings out totally and being totally in touch with those is dangerous, and I’m gradually working towards doing more of that.

Bashar: That’s all right. That’s a choice. The first step in allowing yourself to go faster is to let the pace you’re going at be all right and not be in a hurry to go faster. That’s the paradox. You have to be all right with where you’re at and how you’re doing it, paradoxically, in order to do it differently.

If you are going at a certain rate, don’t be impatient with it. Acknowledge that that is the rate you have chosen. You have decided for one reason or another, for one definition or another, that is correct for you. As soon as you accept that that’s what you’ve done—not accept the pace, but accept that that’s what you chose—you can then allow the pace to change.

Asker: Is it helpful to me to work with people that are more sensitive to feelings and help point the way?

Bashar: It can be. Do you think or believe that it would be helpful? Yes. Well there you go. Your choice. Whatever you feel works, do it. That’s the point, because it’s all in your hands.

Asker: You said for MS, toxic things were causing it. The emotional fear has allowed you to physically attract into your body those kinds of things that are vibrationally representative of the emotional fear, which generally speaking translates physically in your reality as toxins, poisons, things of that nature.

Now you may need some assistance in clarifying the physical body as well as simultaneously clarifying the emotional self, because you have allowed the emotional self to cross the threshold into physiological manifestation. Again, don’t judge yourself negatively for having done so. Allow yourself to recognize simply what has happened, and allow yourself to start now knowing that as you begin to clarify your inner work, you will also simultaneously attract yourself to circumstances and situations that will allow you to clarify the outer work.

Anything that you already are aware of that would be beneficial in clarifying the body—such as water intake, not putting any more toxins in your body—those things can be done to help lighten up your body so that the emotional work can also simultaneously be easier. You can work it from both directions simultaneously.

Asker: I have in the past always surrounded myself with white light to keep off negative energies. I thought you said you were not into needing protection. Did you lie?

Bashar: It is not that it is wrong to allow yourself to surround yourself with white light, for you are made of light. But watch your reasons for doing so. If you’re surrounding yourself with white light because you know it is an expression of your love and your joy, that’s one thing. If you feel that you absolutely must surround yourself with white light or you will not be safeguarded from other things—you ascribe more power to them than you may wish—then you may wish to reconsider your reasons for doing it that way.

The point is simply be true to yourself, but be true to yourself for positive reasons, for joyful reasons, and not use that in the sense of believing that you actually are at the mercy of something if you don’t do that.

Male Hybrid Children and Self-Investigation

Asker: Do human men have hybrid children?

Bashar: Well, yes in the sense that sometimes genetic material from the males of your species has been utilized to generate hybrids.

Asker: So do I have any?

Bashar: Yes.

Asker: And what is the implication for me to have that just revealed to me?

Bashar: What do you want it to be? What’s your opinion of it?

Asker: Emptiness, nothingness. But I think it’s probably a recent acquisition in the last 13 months.

Bashar: Emptiness, nothingness? I will respond with my own version of that word: nonsense. You would not have asked the question had it meant nothing.

Asker: I don’t want to be divisive in my thinking. I wish to approach it from a unified perspective.

Bashar: Then first allow yourself to see the obvious. If you ask such a question, if such a question is on your mind—obviously, when someone asks you what do you feel about it, what’s your opinion about it, you can’t really truthfully and honestly respond “nothing and emptiness.” You are not being self-investigative.

Asker: I’m not like some of the other people here that are obsessed with their hybrid children.

Bashar: First of all, understand that these individuals are not necessarily obsessed. Do you understand that in your language that is usually a derisive term?

Asker: I know, but that’s all they ask.

Bashar: Not necessarily. It’s all you’ve heard, which might tell you something else about your timing.

Asker: I’m curious, obviously.

Bashar: All right then. If that’s what you have focused on, that tells you something. Now why are you curious? What meaning do you give it?

Asker: I was asking Bob—everyone always talks about their hybrid children, and I joked to him one day, “Hey, why don’t any men talk about their hybrid children?”

Bashar: Good question. So you thought you’d be the first.

Asker: I kind of knew that I have some, but it’s not the relevant issue.

Bashar: The relevant issue is what? What is the relevant issue?

Asker: Well, that’s what I’m asking you.

Bashar: What is the relevant issue? You were about to tell me—don’t stop.

Asker: I was phrasing it—

Bashar: Let’s go from another direction. Let’s say you are all of a sudden attracted to go to a certain place on your planet that is relatively remote.

Bashar: Suddenly as you are standing there, and you spend time wondering why—why am I here, why was I attracted to come here—and nothing is revealing itself. Suddenly, as you are about to go, this feeling overcomes you: don’t leave yet, turn around. And as you turn around, suddenly you are confronted with the image of this being standing before you. It looks something like you but not quite. You instantly sense it is not exactly fully human. The depth, the focus, the immediacy, the presence behind its eyes is stronger than anything you have ever witnessed from any human.

I ask the question: If this were to occur, how would you feel? What would you do? What would you say? How would you act? What would it mean?

Asker: It would mean tremendous joy.

Bashar: Why? Let’s stay with that for the moment. Why?

Asker: Because I think I would be in awe of this all-knowing, all-loving giant.

Bashar: Why would that bring you joy? Why would being in awe of something equate to joy?

Asker: Because I could just be in absolute silence and be in that silence. That’s all.

Bashar: Are you by implication saying that it takes an incident of this nature for you to feel that awe, that joy, and that silence, and that you cannot feel it in any other way?

Asker: I can feel it if I visualize what you’ve just described.

Bashar: Were you capable of feeling it before I described it?

Asker: Yes.

Bashar: You sounded hesitant.

I have also illustrated to you that when you think of that subject in this way, you will understand your relationship to it and will not say “I feel nothing and emptiness.” I have shown you that far from it—when you really allow yourself to experience your relationship to these beings, to these children, instead you feel great joy and mystery and profundity—far cry from emptiness and nothingness.

So if you get that point, you can now take this in your own time, in your own leisure, in your own way, and apply the same kind of idea to this subject or to any other subject, and see the difference using my illustration as an example.

NASA, Spacecraft, and Cattle Mutilations

Asker: What is NASA up to? What are they doing? What do they hope to achieve? What are they withholding?

Bashar: I am not going to necessarily be able to answer this in 25 words or less. Start out with the “what are they withholding” part.

First of all, it would be misleading to say “what are they withholding.” Some individuals within that organization are aware of certain information that has to do with extraterrestrial consciousness, and they are aware that that information is being withheld and are to some degree participating in the withholding of that information from your general public. Some individuals—not the entire organization.

Some of those individuals are withholding that information primarily—that kind of thing. A few—very few—individuals are also to some degree not dispersing information that has to do with certain kinds of advanced technology that could alleviate some of the difficulties on your planet. Very few.

In time, these things will leak out. In time, your society will know these things.

When you say “what do they wish to achieve,” you are dealing with a number of different agendas because there are a number of different people that think that NASA is different things. Some individuals are doing it for very what you would call disciplined and scientific reasons, for what you might call pure knowledge. Some individuals are doing it for what they think are the altruistic reasons of the betterment of humankind. Some individuals are doing it for the sheer ecstasy of exploration and the acquisition of knowledge. There are any number of agendas of the individuals that are involved in that organization on your planet.

Now, also of course, the idea is that in general for humankind, it will become necessary to some degree in some manner for you to explore beyond the boundaries of your own planet.

I am going to be a little cryptic here because I want you to really take some time to ponder this on your own time and ask yourself—and look deep into your society to figure this out. Why at this particular time is your society, your particular nation, deciding to go back to the Moon? Don’t answer me now. Don’t discuss it now. Think about it. We’ll talk about it some other time.

Asker: I had a really exciting experience last night. I didn’t sleep very much, maybe in little bits and pieces. I seemed to be awake at 4:00 in the morning. I find this is so trippy because I can have a lot more time to do a lot more things if I don’t have sleep all the time. I love this.

Bashar: It is neither right nor wrong to have a particular lengthy or short sleep agenda. As we have said many times, when many of you allow yourself to begin to key more strongly into your individual natural biorhythm frequencies, many of you may find that you are awake at certain hours that your society more typically will be asleep. But falling into your natural biorhythm will probably for most individuals allow you to recognize you don’t necessarily need as much sleep as you think.

This goes to some degree hand in hand with also realizing that many of you don’t necessarily need also as much food as you think.

Asker: During this process, I was thinking of my mother and father who have not been walking around on the planet in a physical form for some time now.

Bashar: That’s a long-winded way of saying that they’re dead?

Asker: Well, that’s one way of expressing it. What came to me is I’m thinking of Whitley Strieber and the thing about a relationship between what we sometimes call Grays or extraterrestrials and those who are departed—so-called dead.

Bashar: You have counterparts in all realities really. Whatever you choose to focus on will make that stand out. I’ve been seeing that I have other expressions in many many places, including these so-called beings that used to be creepy and scary are really me looking at myself in many ways.

Asker: Do not deny them their own autonomy, but in many ways for you on a personal level, yes, as a reflection.

Bashar: I’m becoming more comfortable with the whole—

Asker: With your own creepiness.

Bashar: Yeah. I kind of like it.
