ALL THAT IS, THE ONE, AND TIME
Distinction Between All That Is and The One
Participant: We understand the one consciousness—it is ever expanding, not a fixed entity. We also understand that time is a concept created when process needs to happen. The one consciousness does not experience time. How does that process of expansion of the one consciousness occur without being subject to time?
Bashar: First, let’s get some terminology so that we are on the same page. To us, there is actually a difference between all that is and the one. They’re not quite the same thing. All that is does not know itself as all that is, but the one knows itself as the one. That’s the difference between the two.
The one represents the first level of reflection that creates everything else from the one on down. In order for all that is to experience itself, it does then within itself create a separation, a division, that then becomes known as the one. Obviously that must involve some sense that you would recognize as a space-time separation, but it is nowhere near as concrete or crystallized as what you call typically space and time in your reality.
It’s nowhere near as fixed, but it obviously is there to some degree, and it is being used in that sense to create the first separation that then creates all other separations into denser and denser levels of space-time. So yes, the template is even on that level, but it is on that level in its purest, simplest form, only creating a single division that still is experienced by the one as a now eternal moment.
The One Creates Polarity
Participant: When that first split happens and the one is created from all that is, is there another entity that’s created?
Bashar: All that is is still all that is, of course. Now, in the one, in that moment of the creation of the one, the one recognizes itself as also the totality of polarity. So in that sense, you could say yes, it recognizes immediately that there is a type of cell division from the one into two—a this and a that, a light and a dark. You could call it a twoness. So the one becomes two automatically.
Because remember, it is still an aspect of all that is, and as an aspect of all that is, it must contain all that there is. But it contains it and recognizes and experiences it in a manner where it recognizes it as polarity, whereas in all that is there is no such recognition at all. All that is is just all that is without even knowing that it is all that is. But the one knows it is all that is, and the second you know you’re all that is, you have to accept all that there is within all that is, and in all that is there is polarity.
So the one becomes the two instantly, which then again diversifies into all the other things.
DIMENSIONS AND DENSITIES
Participant: Can you help me understand if there is physicality in the fourth and fifth dimensions? Does duality exist there?
Bashar: in your reality, in your language, sometimes there is some confusion of terminology between dimension and density.
Many people in your metaphysical movement refer to the idea of fourth density, fifth density, sometimes using these terms interchangeably with fourth dimension, fifth dimension. They’re not exactly interchangeable.
Within the reality you would call your third dimension, it is actually a fourth-dimensional reality because you have three dimensions of space and one of time. That makes it a fourth-dimensional reality. So in reality, you’re already in the fourth dimension. Obviously it’s physical.
Within this fourth-dimensional reality, you are actually also then going into what people on your planet have called fourth density, but they are sometimes confusing the idea of third dimension to fourth dimension transference. There is no fourth dimension transference because you’re already there. So going into fourth density is actually going into the fifth dimension.
Fifth Dimension Characteristics
Bashar: In going into the fifth dimension or fourth density, you will find that there is still physicality, yes. There is still some degree of polarity, but again it is not as fixed. You have more flexibility in space and time. You can find it becoming more slippery, unstuck, unglued, so that you can experience more synchronicity, which is your physical translation of experiencing that everything happens at once, that everything is connected.
A symptom, a marker of transferring from the fourth dimension to the fifth dimension—or from third density to fourth density—is to relax the idea of that structure that has been imposed upon your consciousness and let it be a little bit looser, so that you experience more of the now and thus relax the concept of space and time.
Signs of Shifting
Bashar: Have you ever found yourself getting somewhere physically when you knew it was impossible for you to get there in the amount of time you had, but you got there on time anyway? That kind of thing is where your consciousness is now starting to manipulate time so that you’re jumping over what you need and simply arriving when you need to be there, regardless of how much time you thought you might have needed in the old perspective.
Those kinds of things tell you that you are uplifting your frequency, uplifting your vibration, expanding your consciousness, becoming more aware of the fact that you live in the now. Because in the now, by definition, all things exist. The more you live in the here and now, the less you need the concept of space and time because there are fewer details to focus on.
When people focus on too many details and they think they have to make their life work by going through this step and this step and this step, they’re creating steps that then require more space and more time in which to exist. But if you understand yourself more holistically and just go from here to there and skip all the intervening steps, then you need less time, will experience less time and less space. You’ll live more in the now where everything is, and you’ll be able to access it more easily.
The symptoms of that access will be more synchronicity and more slippage in space and time, and also more sensitivity to perceiving with your senses other vibrations, other dimensions, other realities, other frequencies of energies. That’s why more and more people now are also seeing more things from other realities—seeing colors, seeing light they never saw before, seeing spacecraft moving in other dimensions, seeing spirits of people that have passed on into the spirit realm.
Progression Through Dimensions
Participant: We can experience the fifth dimension in this physical world? Is the fifth dimension the last level of complete physical reality?
Bashar: Beyond that it is more quasi-physical, non-physical, which is where we’re going. Our civilization—we’re becoming less physicalized; we’re now quasi-physical, quasi-energy beings. But you’re just going into the very beginning of that level as a society.
Participant: We may choose to experience our next lifetimes in the fifth dimension—is that a natural progression?
Bashar: It depends on your choices. It can be representative of a natural progression, yes. But remember, on that higher level time is not linear, so you can actually choose a life that from physical reality’s point of view would actually be before the life you’re having now as your next life, just because you think you might need that experience for your progression.
On that level, it’s not linear because from that level you recognize all lives coexist simultaneously, and you’re just keying into them in whatever order you think actually serves you best. Some souls will feel that they want to hop all over the place, and that creates the kind of progression they need. Some souls will do it very linearly—they will connect to their lives in what from a space-time perspective would appear to be one life after another, one dimension after another. But you don’t have to do it that way.
The Film Strip Analogy
Bashar: On a high level, you will experience all your physical lives at once, at the same time, and actually be able to handle all that input all at once. It’s similar to the analogy we use on your planet of a film strip. There are many frames on that film strip. Each physical life may be one frame, but when you are the projectionist, you can take that film strip and stretch it out in front of you and you can see all the frames at the same time.
That’s a different point of view. From the higher levels, it’s like that. As the projectionist, you could say, “Now I’m going to look at frame five, now I’m going to look at frame one, now frame ten, now frame three, now frame seven.” You don’t have to do it in order because you see them all at once.
PARALLEL REALITIES AND CHOICE
Everything Exists
Bashar: Everything exists all at once. Anything that can exist does exist. Anything you can imagine, somewhere, somewhen, is real because you can’t imagine non-existence. Try it—you see? You can’t imagine non-existence. Non-existence by definition is something you can’t experience. So anything you can imagine—any other version of Earth, any other choice, any other branching choice you may have made—is being made on another Earth or in another reality or in another dimension. Everything is being experienced that can be experienced.
That’s why all that is is called all that is—not all that is except for this. It’s all that is.
The Intervention Question
Participant: There is a version of the history of the Earth that posits that at some point in the past of the Earth, there were beings from elsewhere that interjected their genetic material into the hominid life form that existed on Earth and helped create the human form into which souls could incarnate. Is that intervention something that has had a negative effect on the Earth?
Bashar: It is an interaction that has had an effect that is positive or negative depending upon how it is used and viewed.
Participant: Some information posits that there’s a sort of colonization that has happened—that Earth and its resources are being colonized and used by certain beings from elsewhere, unbeknownst to most inhabitants.
Bashar: On some Earth, that is true. But on this Earth—is it this Earth? That’s the question. It is the Earth you’re on. Do you subscribe to that reality?
Participant: I don’t know yet.
Bashar: You’re allowed to live on an Earth where you don’t know. So when you make up your mind, that will be the Earth you live on. That’s how you change anything.
Every Thought Changes Reality
Bashar: Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen—please, please, please, please take me quite literally. All right? Quite literally. This is not symbolic. This is literal. Every single thought you have changes your entire reality. What Earth are you on now? What Earth are you on now? What Earth are you on now? You have actually just passed through a large number of parallel reality Earths in the last five seconds.
Every thought you have means you’re in a different reality. The only reason it seems like the same Earth is because a level of your consciousness agrees to experience it with each other that way. But not only are you experiencing a variety of Earths together, you’re experiencing a variety of Earths separately that you have to agree you’re experiencing together.
So whatever you decide is the truth of your world at any given moment will be what you experience. And remember, the past does not create the present—the past is the result of what you decide the present to be.
STATE OF BEING AND CIRCUMSTANCES
The Robbery Example
Participant: If I’m sitting in this house and I feel that somebody is going to rob me, and I have a feeling that they’re outside, how does that work? How do I deal with that?
Bashar: There are any number of ways. First of all, yes, you can acknowledge that you may still be creating an Earth reality where for a while you will still agree to experience that some people on your planet behave within their integrity and some people behave without integrity. So you may still experience on your planet for a while that there are people who act in a negative way.
The recognition of their existence is not the attraction of interacting with them in a negative way. One way of looking at it can simply be: “Yes, I recognize that in the Earth I’m co-creating and agreeing to create right now, I recognize that I am willing to allow that there are people who function in a negative way.” But you don’t have to attract them to you.
Even if you do, you can still recognize that even though they may be operating out of a negative intention, that negative intention doesn’t have to impact you negatively, no matter what happens. If you know that no matter what happens it’s only going to affect your life in a positive way, then you will only get a positive effect from it, no matter what their behavior was.
The Radio Story
Bashar: I’ll give you a physical real-world example. This happened to a real individual on your planet. They had just gotten a brand new automobile and were looking to get a very expensive audio system for their car because they loved music. They could not afford the system they actually wanted, so they did the next best thing—they got the system they could afford that was as close as possible.
Within a week, the car was broken into and the radio was stolen. This person knew enough to understand: “I attract that into my life, but I also understand that I must have attracted that into my life for a positive reason, even though the person who stole it may have been operating from outside their integrity, from a negative energy. That does not in any way shape or form have to affect me in a negative way.”
They stayed in that vibration. They got the insurance claim because not only had the radio been stolen, but some damage had been done to the console. The amount of money they received was equal to replacing the radio and fixing the damaged dashboard.
When they went to the auto repair shop, the repair person said, “The damage to the dashboard is actually not as bad as you think.” They simply took a heat gun and were able to heat up the section, allowing the plastic to snap right back into shape. They didn’t have to charge for repairing the dashboard.
So the person was standing there with the insurance money that was now equal in amount to the new radio they actually wanted to begin with. They went out and got it.
Even though they were the “victim” of a crime, they did not go into victim energy and thus were able to actually use someone else’s negative intention to springboard them into what was actually their positive desire to begin with. That thief actually helped them get it without even knowing it.
Bashar: Circumstances don’t matter—only your state of being does. That’s the only thing that’s real. Circumstances are an illusion. Circumstances don’t create your state of being; only your state of being is real. It is state of being that creates your circumstances. So no matter how the circumstances appear, that’s just an illusion. It’s the state of being you choose to stay in that determines how you will experience the illusionary circumstances.
State of being matters, not the circumstances.
RESPONSIBILITY AND DETACHMENT
Owning to Detach
Participant: I’m going through a personal determination of what my personal responsibility is in life. I acknowledge that my state of being and a continuous joyous state of being is my optimal state of being. I do however find that there is at times a discrepancy between a lack of responsibility and denial towards what is. Do I need to detach from certain things?
Bashar: There is a way to detach with ownership of what is important to own. In fact, paradoxically, by owning you actually detach more efficiently. I’ll sum it up in one sentence: You cannot change what you do not own. If you are willing to take responsibility for your part in any creation—and that doesn’t mean blame—response-ability, your ability to respond from your truth to the situation, to define your accurate and true relationship to that situation.
If you’re willing to take responsibility for your part in the co-creation, then the second you own what is, you are automatically detached from its effect, and you can determine what effect it will have. It’s the ability to allow for neutrality and not automatically and unconsciously assign meaning to the circumstance, because it is the meaning you assign that determines the effect that you get.
Life is Meaningless (In the Most Positive Way)
Bashar: All situations are fundamentally without meaning. The greatest gift you have been given is that life is meaningless—and I mean that in the most positive way. Life is meaningless. There is no built-in meaning to it at all. It is completely neutral, devoid of meaning—it’s just a set of props.
When something happens, there is no meaning to that thing. You have been taught to give it meaning. The instant you put meaning into something, that determines how you feel about it, that determines its effect. So when you prefer to have a positive effect from something, you must be responsible in life to take a moment, step back, and say, “All right, wait a minute, pause. This does not mean anything at the moment. It has no meaning of its own. I’m giving it all the meaning that I’m feeling. Would I prefer to give it a different meaning? Yes. Well, what meaning would I prefer to give it?”
Even if it’s general, you can give it a positive general meaning. You may not intellectually understand all the details of exactly how it might serve you in a positive way, but as long as you stay in the proper state that gives it positive meaning in general, then you will allow it to work its magic and give you a positive effect, even if you’re not intellectually aware of how that might be possible.
The Physical Mind’s Limitation
Bashar: You don’t have to be aware of how it might be possible. Why? Because your physical mind is not designed to understand how something will happen. Physical mind is only designed to know how something happened—past tense. You are not designed to understand how it’s going to give you a positive effect. All you have to do is know that it will.
It is the higher mind that knows how it will do that. The physical mind’s responsibility is just to experience what has already happened, not to decide how that’s possible. Only the higher mind is capable of knowing how it’s possible. That’s why you have to work in concert with the higher mind and let the higher mind do its job and stop making the physical mind think that it has to do the higher mind’s job by figuring out how everything is supposed to get done.
Physical mind is not designed to know those things—never was, never will be.
HIGHER MIND AND OVERSOUL
Relationship Between Higher Mind and Oversoul
Participant: How does the higher mind relate to the oversoul?
Bashar: The higher mind is what carries the reminder of the oversoul’s vibration for the physical mind.
Participant: How does one best get in tune with their higher mind?
Bashar: One word: Imagination. This is what the imagination actually is. Imagination is actually the conduit of communication between higher mind and physical mind. All you have to do is use your imagination. What would you prefer this to mean? What would you prefer to be aligned with? How would you prefer to express yourself? How do you imagine you really see yourself? How do you imagine that you will follow your passion? How do you imagine you want to live your life?
As soon as you imagine it, as soon as you see how you would prefer to be, all you have to do is recognize that that picture is the communication coming from your higher mind saying, “If you, the physical person, mimic, mirror, and match that picture of your idealized state of being, then that will be the life you will have.”
Participant: If I’m imagining and I’m in a joyous state, I’m connected to my higher mind?
Bashar: You are correct to assume that. However, recognize you are always connected. You are aware of the connection in that state. You are never disconnected—it’s not possible to be disconnected from it. But you can experience the experience of being disconnected.
BELIEFS AND WARS
Beliefs Create Consequences
Participant: What is happening right now on Earth—these wars—are these what we want to experience?
Bashar: They are the result of what you choose to believe. It’s not that you want to experience them, but if you feel that you choose to believe certain things, then those beliefs will result in those consequences. You could say, “Well, as long as you want to believe this, then yes, you obviously in some sense want that consequence.” Otherwise, if you really, really, really didn’t want that consequence, you wouldn’t choose to believe in the things that deliver those consequences.
Everything that happens in your physical reality is based on what you believe to be true. Nothing happens without you defining something to be true. So as long as there is this effect called warfare, you can always trace it back to the idea that people believe that they have to believe certain things.
If they recognize that believing those things results in war, that should be the first sign that tells you that what you actually want to do is believe in something else. But as long as you continue to believe in those things, you will have that result.
Uncovering Core Beliefs
Bashar: If you see that certain beliefs cause war, why aren’t you changing those beliefs? That’s the issue. If you’re not changing the beliefs that create the consequence, there must be something about those beliefs where you have other beliefs that say you have to keep believing those things.
But if you find out what the beliefs are that say you have to keep believing the things that cause the war and change those beliefs, then you will change these beliefs and you will not have war. Anytime you find that there is a consequence that leads back to a belief and you’re not changing that belief, that tells you there’s another belief that says that that belief shouldn’t change. You have to find out what that belief is and change it. If there’s a belief that then says that shouldn’t change, you have to find out what that belief is and change it, and go all the way into your true core and find out what the true first core belief is that leads to all the other beliefs.
Changing Yourself Changes Your Reality
Participant: If we want to go back and find that belief and change that belief in ourselves, that is not going to necessarily stop the wars.
Bashar: Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Eventually you will find—remember, it’s not actually about changing others, it’s about changing yourself. When you change yourself sufficiently, you will then find that you have shifted yourself to a parallel reality that is in harmony with your new belief. In that parallel reality will only be the people who believe as you do, and in that reality there will be no war.
It may appear from a physical point of view that the reason that happened is because maybe some people died off and they’re not there anymore to make war, or maybe somehow they just disappeared, or maybe a natural disaster comes along and wipes them all out, or maybe they just decide one day that they’re good and tired of war and then they don’t do it anymore.
Many different ways can be created to make it appear as if they have changed, but what’s actually happened is you have shifted yourself to a parallel reality where that’s simply no longer in harmony with who you are.
The 2012 Threshold
Bashar: Is there a threshold that needs to be enough of people feeling that way and changing those beliefs? Yes, and that’s what the year 2012 is about. The year 2012 represents the threshold where when you cross that line, you will finally actually have slightly more positive energy on the Earth than negative, and it will begin to snowball from that point forward. It will begin to accelerate from that point forward.
You will finally have tipped the scale enough so that it will guarantee that from that point forward—and I’m not saying it will be the next day, but it will be relatively rapid from that point forward—once you tip the scale from negative to positive in terms of the majority of the energy on the planet, then things can really accelerate.
It doesn’t take as many positively oriented people for their energy to outweigh millions and millions of negatively oriented ones because the positively oriented ones are integrational whereas the negatively oriented ones work alone. It is exponentially expansive when you finally tip the scales on the positive side.
Between the year 2033 and 2050, war will be eliminated forever.
Positive vs. Negative Energy
Participant: What do you mean by positive and negative energy?
Bashar: Positive energy is that which integrates, unifies, makes whole. Negative energy, mechanically speaking, is simply that which segregates, separates, causes discordant vibration as opposed to harmonious alignment. It’s just a mechanical description of the energy. It’s not the idea of good/bad, right/wrong.
When you are acting in positive energy, you are harmoniously aligned with your true core self. When you are acting in negative energy, you are out of alignment with that and creating discord, separation, segregation, disconnection experiences, and forgetfulness.
By definition, the energy that is negative cannot work harmoniously with each other. It can seem like there is unification just because there are so many and they may have a sort of general momentum, but they actually aren’t working in unity. When they really start working in unity, they’re actually creating a positive vibration.
Participant: The energy that creates war would be negative energy.
Bashar: You must understand it from the people’s perspective. As is often said of movie villains, no one thinks they’re the villain. They think what they’re doing is positive. I’m simply talking about an objective observation of what kind of energy they’re actually using versus what they may believe they’re using. The test matters—where it’s coming from, whether it’s coming from fear or joy.
Differences Don’t Cause War
Bashar: How people get into wars is what they believe about their differences, not that they are different. It’s what they believe about being different that’s the key. That’s why what’s so important to end war on your planet is to teach the children that differences are part of the recognition of the beauty of all that is and its diversification.
All that is is harmonious if it allows all its differences to be equally valid. The only way all that is could ever go out of balance is if it suddenly judged one of the aspects within itself that it’s different from another to be less valid than that other. So it is the belief that a difference is less valid that creates the war, not the difference itself.
Everyone Goes to Heaven
Bashar: The big secret about all the things that are fundamental to all the different religions and faiths on your planet—the real truth is that everybody actually goes to heaven no matter what. Hell is not a place you go to; it’s a state you pass through on your way to heaven. That’s all it is.
Remember, darkness does not exist by itself. Darkness is not a thing unto itself—darkness is just the absence of light. Cold is not a thing unto itself—it is just the absence of heat. Evil is not a thing unto itself—it is simply someone operating without feeling the connection to God. But that connection is always there, and that’s all there is.
CREATING NEW SYSTEMS
Changing the World
Participant: If everything is being controlled by people who are injecting into humanity the belief that we are all here to make it on our own and everybody’s my enemy, how do I spread the idea to the world that there is another way?
Bashar: Demonstrate that there’s another way. Behave that there’s another way. Show by example that there’s another way. The idea is not to change the systems that exist—the idea is to create new systems that will replace the old ones when they crumble under their own weight.
Participant: So it’s not really living out of the system, or living somehow within the system, but creating a new system?
Bashar: Creating. Thank you. So that then when people are searching for that new idea that represents the world they prefer to live in, people like yourself have created the new systems that they can find. When enough people find the new systems, they will let the old systems go, and the people that want to hold on to the old systems will go with them. It’s as simple as that.
You’re not trying to force a change on anything—otherwise, all you’re doing is the same tactics that you’re complaining about from those people. Be a different person, behave a different way, create a different thing, and then you will provide a foundation for a new idea that people can gravitate toward and can grow.
Shifting to Parallel Realities
Bashar: By doing that, you’re changing your frequency and actually shifting yourself through a series of parallel realities that are more and more closely representative of the parallel reality you prefer to exist in. One day you will simply find yourself in that reality.
For example, we know that many of you now are becoming more aware of doing things that are environmentally sound—reducing pollution, finding alternative forms of energy. But the world that is still highly polluted is still there. That Earth still exists. You haven’t changed a thing. You have created a new vibration in yourself that has shifted you to a world that is more harmoniously aligned with the idea of looking for alternate forms of energy that are non-polluting.
That world already existed. You just changed your vibration and took yourself there with a bunch of your friends that were like-minded. You all agreed to shift to that reality because that’s what you prefer. The older Earth is still there—that Earth has always been there. The Earth you’re heading toward is there now. They all coexist simultaneously. You are shifting your frequency—you are changing yourself.
THE TOOL OF BELIEVABILITY
The Threshold of Believability
Participant: I’m experiencing a lapse of time from the time of visualization or imagining to the manifestation. How do I minimize that?
Bashar: We have designed a specific tool for this called The Tool of Believability. It works like this—it’s called the threshold of believability. Whatever it is you are imagining you prefer to manifest in your life, start somewhere high up in terms of the time it takes to manifest and work your way backward.
Let’s say you want to manifest something. Ask yourself the question—and this requires real honesty with yourself, and you must really pay attention to how quickly you respond. This is critical.
Say for example: “This thing I would like to manifest—this choice I have made—do I believe beyond a shadow of a doubt, without a moment’s hesitation, that I will have absolutely no problem whatsoever manifesting this within 10 years?”
If the answer is “Yes, no problem at all, that’s more than long enough,” then drop the notch.
“Do I believe I can manifest this in 9 years? Yes.” “In 7 years? Yes.” “5 years? Yes.” “3 years? Maybe.”
However you want to do it—by year, by month, by day, by week. The second you hesitate to say yes for even a split second, that’s how long it will take on your present belief system.
Changing the Beliefs
Bashar: If you want to make it take less time, the next part of the tool is: Now I know I started to hesitate at, say, three years. So now the next thing is: “What would I have to believe is true in order for it to take three years to manifest?” And now you start examining your beliefs. “Well, I believe this, I believe that. Well, if I didn’t believe that—if I thought it could happen this way—it could take less time, couldn’t it?”
Now you’ve changed that belief. You see now there may be ways in which it could happen sooner. You’ve examined that belief, you’ve let it go. You don’t have to believe that’s true now. You believe something else is true.
Take the test over again. “Five years? Oh yeah, no problem. Three years? Yes, yes, yes—with my new belief I don’t have a single hesitation knowing I can manifest this in 3 years. With the new belief, can you manifest it in 2 years? Yes. One year? Piece of cake, no problem. Six months?”
You keep doing that until you reduce it as far as you can, till you’ve changed as many beliefs as you can. Once you have changed all the beliefs you can think of and taken the test over again, whatever amount of time is left remaining is the amount of time it actually needs to take for the good of all concerned and for you to really appreciate the manifestation in the way you’ve chosen. It won’t collapse any farther than that at that point. Be all right with that, and being all right with that is the only thing that might actually give it the chance to collapse further. That’s the paradox.
TRUST AND IMAGINATION
Can Imagination Fool You?
Participant: How can I trust and make sure that when I imagine things, or when my intuition is telling me something, that hasn’t been filtered through my belief system?
Bashar: Your imagination is coming from your higher mind, not your physical mind. But that doesn’t mean it’s not going through your belief system—it always goes through your belief system. The idea is that if you can feel that it represents a high, passionate state of being or what you might call an idealized representation, then all you have to do is deal with a belief system that would make it seem difficult for you to behave that way.
Participant: Are you actually asking me if you’re fooling yourself?
Bashar: Yes.
Participant: Yes.
Bashar: Do you believe you can fool yourself? Yes. Then that’s what you’ll experience. You have to start with that belief. Why would you believe your imagination could fool you and give you something that really wasn’t representative of your passion? It implies that you’re out of touch with what your passion is.
If you find that using your imagination puts you in touch with the belief that says your imagination could fool you, then I would simply recommend that that’s the first belief you deal with. It still works for you because your imagination has put you in touch with the belief you need to be put in touch with in order to use your imagination in a more beneficial way. It will always involve your belief system—it can’t not involve your belief system. But how it involves your belief system is up to you.
Redefine, Redefine, Redefine
Bashar: Never assume that the definition you’ve been given on Earth of what something means is the only definition it can have. For example, you use the word “trust.” Many people on your planet think they have to learn to trust because they’ve been taught to define it that way. No, you don’t. If you didn’t trust something to be true all the time, you wouldn’t be having an experiential reality.
It’s not an issue of learning to trust—it’s an issue of learning what you trust in. When someone says, “You have to learn to trust,” say, “Wait a minute, no I don’t. Trust is automatic. I define trust as simply something that exists within me automatically, naturally. If I didn’t trust something to be true, I wouldn’t even be having an experience.”
So it’s not about learning to trust—it’s about learning what it is I’m placing my trust in and why.
The Habit Redefinition
Bashar: People often complain: “I just can’t seem to change this because it’s a habit. It’s a pattern. I just can’t seem to change it.” The only reason it seems as if you can’t change it is because you have a definition of a habit that says it’s something you have to keep doing.
Our definition of a habit is something that you do you don’t know you’re doing. If you know suddenly you’re doing it, it’s not a habit anymore—it’s a choice. And now you have to ask yourself, “Well, why would I keep choosing something that I don’t want?”
From our perspective, once you know you have a habit, the habit is gone. It is the recognition—that’s the end of the process of having the habit. Because a habit is something you do you don’t know you’re doing. Once you know you’re doing it, the only way you could know that is if the habit’s no longer there, because now you’re looking at it from another perspective.
It’s like the forest and the trees—you cannot see the forest unless you’re outside the forest. You can’t see the habit unless you no longer have it. If that’s a definition that works better for you, I would suggest you use that one.
PERSONAL QUESTIONS
Snake Dreams and Reptilian Connection
Participant: As a child and continuing until a few years ago, I have always been scared of anything that crawls. I specifically always dreamt of snakes. The dream would go on, I would wake up, and the dream would continue. I normally don’t remember my dreams except if it involves snakes.
Bashar: What do snakes represent to you?
Participant: I think they’re slimy. They’re not slimy, they’re very dry but smooth.
Bashar: What do you actually want to know? What’s the connection?
It is a multi-fold connection. Number one, you are remembering to some degree encounters with an extraterrestrial form that evokes that energy within you and puts you in touch with an aspect of yourself that is connected to that energy. You yourself have a reptilian counterpart.
Participant: I don’t know what that means.
Bashar: You understand that you have different lives. One of them is reptilian. The oversoul that you are a part of also has a reptilian life simultaneously personally—yes, I’m talking to you personally.
Secondly, in ancient times, the idea of the serpent represented ancient wisdom and knowledge. What you are feeling is the evocation of that ancient connection to bring your own power to bear in this life without fear—in this life that you will be attacked and killed for it, as you were in other lives. That’s actually what you fear.
It’s a symbol that represents the statement of your power and others attacking and killing you for the stating of that power, the stating of that wisdom, the stating of that knowledge in ancient times when it wasn’t allowed.
Those times are over. You can bring your energy to the forefront. You can bring your self-empowerment to the forefront. You can express who you are without fear of attack, without fear of lethal consequences.
That’s the energy that is being brought up within you that you fear, represented by the serpent. If you are willing to allow this acknowledgement to help connect you more strongly to other dimensions, other interactions, and other realms, there is nothing to be afraid of. This will actually increase and expand, and you will actually begin to understand what your true power is and how deeply you are connected to many other levels.
Let it out. It’s all right. It’s beautiful. It will not destroy you this time.
