Simultaneity and Connecting to the Oversoul

Simultaneous Coexistence

Questioner: Could I could speak to Ana

Bashar: Not today. Ana is involved in a contact scenario with another civilization. While normally we can split our consciousness in a variety of ways to have a multitude of conversations simultaneously, in this particular culture, that would be seen as an offense.

Therefore, she is fully focused with all aspects of her consciousness in allowing that culture to become part of our interstellar alliance.

Questioner: Well, my love to her. I was hoping to get to chat with her, but that’s all right. I will chat with you further about the dream state. Sometimes when I am dreaming, it feels as if I am actually in the dream but there’s a veil over my eyes—I can see but I just can’t quite see clearly. Other times I feel like I’m just watching, and other times I don’t know what’s going on.

The question is—because everything you have described simply is something that can happen in that state. In terms of being in different positions, different points of view, having different kinds of experiences, and your relationship to those experiences will create different points of view of how you wish to experience what’s going on. So sometimes you will be, as you say, just a fly on the wall.

Sometimes you will need to see it through what might be called a screen memory so that you can have the kind of interpretation that will make sense to you in your reality. And sometimes you will simply be an observer for a variety of other reasons that may even have to do with other people you may be interacting with in the dream scenario that you don’t know you’re interacting with when you wake up.

Questioner: Okay. And I understand all of that. And another thing is—could it, or is it sometimes that I am waking up in another parallel me?

Bashar: Yes. Okay. Because that’s another symptomology of understanding the idea of simultaneous coexistence—is that sometimes you will actually start to see through the experiential eyes of another version of you. The barriers will start to dissolve, and you will gain more direct experience of someone else’s—another aspect’s—experience of life.

Now this may be temporary, very quick. Sometimes it can be prolonged. Sometimes it creates the sensation you call déjà vu—“I know what’s going to happen because I’ve already seen it happen.” You are standing in the center of the forward and reverse arrows of time, right at the center of parallel reality experiences between different lives, looking in two different directions at once, seeing what is to come and knowing what is to come because you’ve already seen it—because past and future are all here in the present. So yes, more of that will happen as you expand your understanding of your coexistent simultaneity.

Bashar: It is about becoming, as you say, lucid in the dream you’re having of physical reality, because physical reality is a dream. So when you talk about the idea of wanting to learn to lucid dream—becoming aware that you’re dreaming when you’re dreaming—the idea is that can also help you to become lucid in the dream of physical reality, because you’re dreaming right now. The idea of becoming more aware of your simultaneous coexistence helps you become more lucid in the physical reality dream, so you can wake up and realize that you’ve been dreaming.

Questioner: Or visiting—because that’s what I call it. I call it that I’m visiting other selves because it’s a whole other world. I understand the layout of the city, I understand everything, but I’m looking through their eyes, not necessarily mine.

Bashar: You may call it whatever you wish, but you are experiencing parallel realities more directly. That’s one of the symptoms of understanding simultaneity.

Hybrid Children & Past Lives

Questioner: Good day to you, and a good day to you. I wanted to know how many children I have in my other lives and which other lives.

Bashar: All of them. Sure, let’s go for the best. Now, again, please remember that when you say “my other lives,” are you talking about the idea of the hybrids? Are you talking about the idea of parallel lives? Are you talking about the idea of past or future lives that are concurrent? What are you talking about?

Questioner: Okay, let’s go hybrid.

Bashar: Let’s go hybrid. All right, seems to be a theme on your planet lately. You have between 15 and 17 that share some degree of genetic material with you sufficient to call them your children. Though there are more that share some of your genetic material, but not enough in a sense that you would feel vibrationally that they are as strongly connected to you as the 15 to 17.

The reason we are also giving you that window is because there is a degree of probability in the idea of some of these children being hybrid—shifting in and out of dimensional realities that you are no longer connected to. Thus, we give you the whole scenario.

Questioner: Okay. And how many past lives have I had? Have I experienced? How many other simultaneously concurrent lives that you call the past are you presently connected to?

Bashar: Okay. Because again, remember you only have this life. No one has ever had a past life. Do you understand? Reincarnation is not reincarnation—it is multiple simultaneous incarnations. You are you, and you’ve always been this you. Other lives are those people, and they have always been those people. But you cross-connect through the oversoul.

So a more precise way to say this would be: how many oversoul extensions that are sharing a similar vibration in cross-connection right now am I dealing with?

Questioner: Okay, let’s go for that one.

Bashar: Oh, all right. The ones that are most important to the life you’re living now is about 27.

Questioner: Okay. Does that help you at all?

Questioner: Sure, gives me a ballpark.

Bashar: It gives you a ballpark. Does that mean you’re going to start playing ball now?

Questioner: Well, no, probably not.

Bashar: Oh, all right. But I was just interested why.

Questioner: Because we believe in our reality there is no such thing as idle curiosity.

Questioner: Okay. Well, I just needed to know why. I don’t know.

Bashar: Yes, you do.

Questioner: I just was wondering why something decided to tell me.

Bashar: What does it mean to you to have the idea more concretely presented about your cross-connections to other lives? What does that do for you? What does it allow you to feel you can do by knowing something like that?

Questioner: Well, I guess because it explains sometimes when I have different feelings on different things.

Bashar: All right. So it serves you in understanding that sometimes the feelings and inspirations and ideas that may pop into your head may be the result of some of the connections you have made to these other lives, so that you know that you are functioning as a greater being.

Questioner: Exactly. Well, thank you. Why didn’t you say so?

Bashar: Oh, I just couldn’t get the right words for it. All right, well we are happy to supply them.

Questioner: Thank you very much.

Dialogue 5: Belief Systems & The Feeling of Undeserving

Questioner: Quick big sigh. Thank you, Bashar, for being so much fun.

Bashar: We thank all of you for being so much fun and being so bold as to have incarnation on Earth at this time.

Questioner: Well, I think you’re totally adorable. I wanted to take you home and play in the sandbox with me and jump on my trampoline with me because you are so much fun.

Bashar: Oh, all right. So I have two questions.

Questioner: Yes.

Bashar: My first question is—you know, I’m happy and peaceful, content 90% of the time. Yes, we can hear the “but” in there, right? So but I’m saying I think it’s possible to be that 100% of the time.

Questioner: Not necessarily if you are going through a transformation where it’s important for you to feel sadness, feel anger, feel fear in order to deal with the belief systems that are connected to those feelings and then integrate them within yourself. During the actual process, it may be important for you to feel those things in order to get a handle on why you had the feelings to begin with. So yes, ultimately you could decide simply to be happy. But if you have chosen to explore certain themes where it’s important for you to feel other things in order for you to get a handle on what belief systems generate those feelings, then it may be important to feel those things temporarily until you understand what that mechanism is all about and why it was there to begin with, so that you can work with that energy and it can expand your knowledge of how those things function.

Questioner: I understand. And I’m glad you brought up the belief system, because that’s really the heart of my question.

Bashar: Well, it’s the heart of everything you experience in physical reality. What you believe and define to be true is what you experience. And all feelings and all thoughts and all behaviors come from what you believe or define to be true first. And you cannot have a thought, you cannot have a behavior, and you cannot have a feeling without actually first believing something to be true.

Questioner: Yes. So two weeks ago in San Francisco, you were suggesting for us to find the reason for beliefs that takes us into that space—like what you were just saying to explore it.

Bashar: It sounds like something we would suggest.

Questioner: Yes. So I have been doing that all my life. I’m just sort of tired of it. You know what I find is my core—the core always goes back to feeling of undeserving.

Bashar: Feeling guilty? Guilty about what? Ashamed? That’s the whole thing. It’s like I’ve worked through so many different things, so many emotional releases.

Questioner: Let me ask the ultimate question. Remember, none of you—not even you, because there are no exceptions—none of you hold on to anything you don’t believe serves you. So how do you believe it serves you to hold on to something you say you don’t prefer?

Questioner: See, that’s what I haven’t been able to get to.

Bashar: That’s what you need to discover. That’s the belief you need to discover. And it usually comes with the idea of a fear attached to the thing you say you prefer that is greater than holding on to something you say you don’t prefer, but you are comfortable.

If you were to truly let that go, what’s the worst thing you fear might happen?

Questioner: I’ve asked that thousands of times and come up with thousands of answers, but obviously not the one that satisfies you.

Bashar: But that’s why we ask the greater question: how is it serving you to hold on to something that you say you don’t prefer? What do you get out of it?

Questioner: Well, the obvious thing is that I get to stay small. And the ridiculous thing—why would I want to stay small? I don’t want to remain small.

Bashar: Are you sure? Well, why would I want to remain small? So what’s the belief—define small now.

Questioner: Not fully being—not fully going for what I really want in life.

Bashar: And what do you really want that you’re not going for? Have you defined that?

Questioner: Yes, no, maybe.

Bashar: Yes. Are you willing to share what that may be, or at least one version of it?

Questioner: Maybe. Okay, let’s just go for one version. Let’s just say in business.

Bashar: Business—this is exciting to you?

Questioner: I love business.

Bashar: You’re passionate about this?

Questioner: Yes, totally love it. It’s totally my life’s purpose. I’m living my dharma. I’m so blessed.

Bashar: Are you now? Then what’s the problem? Where do you think you’re being held back if you’re so totally blessed and living your passion?

Questioner: It’s fun, I love it, but I sort of hold back on my own success.

Bashar: I define success. Before you say anything, remember our particular aphorism about that. We know what the one on Earth is, but we have, as usual, a slightly different take: “If at first you don’t succeed, redefine success.”

Please remember this: whatever it is, no matter whether or not you are going to do something in a grander way, a more amplified way, a more magnified way—regardless of whether you’re going to change and grow, because you will—but regardless of any of that, whatever you’re doing at any given moment, you are at that moment a total success at it. Whatever it is at that moment, at that level, you are a total success at it at that level.

You’re already a success at that level. Again, it doesn’t mean you won’t do something different, something more expansive, and be a success at that. But the first step is to understand that the only way to expand success is to know you’re already a success at whatever you’re doing in the way you’re doing it right now.

Questioner: I don’t totally understand.

Bashar: Thank you for your honesty. Whatever you are right now is a perfect version of what you are right now. Whatever it is, it’s a perfect version of that concept in totality.

You are unique—no one else is like you. That’s correct. So whatever you are, whatever unique thing you are in all levels, is a perfect version of that thing.

If someone were to go about creating or wanting to create you as you are right now, by having created you as you are right now, they would have totally succeeded. Wouldn’t they?

Bashar: If I wanted to create you exactly as you are right now and I wound up creating you, then I would have succeeded. Wouldn’t I? Yes. So what I’m getting is that it’s like I’m perfect as I am right now.

Questioner: Yes.

Bashar: And thus a total success as the version you are right now. You may not in a sense be the same later, but you have no business comparing yourself to what you will eventually be. That’s where you get into trouble.

Questioner: Expound on that.

Bashar: You find the self you are now lacking by comparison to what you prefer to ultimately be. You are erasing your own stepping stones. You are not validating yourself as the stepping stone to becoming the next version of you. “I’m not good enough, I want to be here but I’m not good enough, I want to be here but I’m not good enough”—so if you’re not good enough, how can you get there? Because only by being good enough as you are will you be the stepping stone that actually leads you to there. By invalidating yourself, you remove the stepping stone and have nowhere to step to get there.

Stop comparing yourself to where you think you’re supposed to be, and start validating yourself where you are, and not worrying about where you’re going because there is nowhere to go but here. Remember, every change simply becomes another version of now.

So the idea is to just be the fullest you you can be so that you use up all the you you are now in order for the next version of you to then come in. Because unless you use up the full version of you now, there’s no reason for the next you to come in—there’s no reason for the change, because you’re not fully being who you are now, not fully validating, not fully loving what you are now in totality as perfect and successful.

Stop comparing yourself to where you think you ought to be. Make sense?

Questioner: Yes. I’m very excited because I’m getting what you’re pointing out for me. It’s like just give myself space and give myself a break for where I am now, and that everything that I’ve done is just perfect and fabulous because it is—it really is. I do get that right.

Bashar: And it has no business being compared in terms of a value judgment to anything else you will create. Of course, we understand you have to take a measurement to know that you have changed and compare the idea of where you were to where you’re going—all that we understand. But that’s a neutral state, that’s just a neutral observation. What you’re doing is placing value judgments on it, and that’s where you hold yourself back.

Questioner: So it’s like my stuff about “okay I’m not deserving”—that’s like, okay, that’s perfect. The fact that I sometimes think “oh I’m not deserving”—I still have those remnants or whatever—“I don’t deserve” is a perfect experience of feeling undeserving. It’s like I am great at feeling undeserving at that moment, and I am great at feeling guilty at that moment.

Bashar: And the paradox is, as soon as you simply honestly own the feeling, it’s gone. The only reason the feeling perpetuates is because you don’t own it—because you don’t want it to be there, as if it was some kind of interruption and didn’t belong. But when it’s perfect—“I am feeling undeserving fully as I can”—owning it suddenly allows you to realize you don’t feel that way anymore. Make sense?

Questioner: So I should have a guilt-shame party?

Bashar: All right. So dinner tonight—can we have a guilt, shame, and undeserving party? You can do whatever you wish. And remember, while you are feeling undeserving and while you are feeling guilty and while you are feeling shameful, please remember you are allowed—you are allowed to feel those things because you’re deserving and worthy and beautiful, because you are unconditionally supported and loved by All-That-Is. You are so unconditionally loved and supported that you are allowed to feel not supported and not loved—that’s how loved you are.

So get that in your head. Make sense?

Questioner: Yes. Makes sense. But if I can go deeper—because usually I’m not aware that I’m feeling undeserving. I’m not usually because I’m not thinking myself all the time.

Bashar: When you have the feeling, you are then conscious of it. And when you are conscious of it, continuing to have the feeling is no longer a pattern, no longer a habit—it’s a choice. A habit is something you do that you don’t know you’re doing. When you know you’re doing it, the habit is gone and it becomes a choice if you repeat it. Make sense?

Questioner: So like in real terms, let’s say if I’m feeling sort of stuck.

Bashar: Define stuck in a way that serves you.

Questioner: I’m just trying to talk…

Bashar: Define stuck in a way that serves you. I just gave you an example. Many people on your planet define habit as something they just can’t help doing. I have told you a habit from our definition is something that you do that you don’t know you’re doing. And if you know you’re doing it, you don’t have the habit anymore. The recognition you have the habit is not the beginning of the process of getting rid of it—the recognition of having a habit is the end of the process.

So as I have now redefined habit, redefine the idea of feeling stuck. For example, feeling stuck is just my reality pointing me in an unexpected direction. I’ll follow it instead of banging my head against a brick wall. And if I just follow the unexpected direction, if I just become curious about what that unexpected direction is that I have now defined “stuck” to mean to me, I will no longer feel stuck—I’ll feel curious and excited to find out what that unexpected direction is.

To use the idea of what you typically on your planet call writer’s block: if you have writer’s block, write about having writer’s block, and you will no longer have writer’s block. Redefine the experience, use the experience in a positive way.

Stuck, stuck, stuck—stuck in the muck. Redefine the idea of what stuck in the muck might mean. Maybe it just simply means that your higher mind is telling you this would actually be a better way for you to go in terms of what you say you prefer, rather than what your physical mind is insisting on doing, which actually will allow you to fall into a hole. And I’m telling you there’s a way around it. So instead of feeling stuck because you are judging the experience and negatively defining it, define it in a positive way that serves you. Define stuck in a positive way instead of a negative way, and you will see how it serves you.

Because all circumstances can serve double duty. Remember, nothing has built-in meaning. The greatest gift you’ve been given is that life is meaningless. You give it the meaning you were created to give meaning to life—that’s your job as a co-creator. Give it meaning as you prefer to, and you will reap the effect of the meaning you gave it, because it has no meaning of its own.

Reality, Reflections & Co-Creation

Questioner: There is no such thing as an accident—right? We’re creating our own reality, and so in our reality there’s really just ourselves and other people that exist.

Bashar: Yourself in your reality and your version of other people you have created in your reality to interact with. That’s it.

Questioner: So are they…

Bashar: But you are all doing the same thing.

Questioner: So everyone in my reality is just an aspect of me?

Bashar: Everyone exists, but everyone you experience in your reality was created by you to interact with as a reflection of you. So they exist in their own right, but the only ones you actually interact with in physical reality are the reflections you’ve created to experience in your reality. That’s why when you change your reality and you change your frequency, sometimes you may find that you no longer interact with certain people—they’re simply no longer in that reality.

Questioner: Okay. What about people that you don’t really directly interact with—they’re just like strangers passing by?

Bashar: It’s all an orchestration, as you said. There are no accidents. Are they real or are they just like robots?

Questioner: Let’s explain this again. It is all real, and it is all an illusion. It is not this or that—it is this and that. The idea is that you have created them by agreement in the consensus reality to have an orchestration that may be serving them maybe more than you understand how it needs to serve you. Nevertheless, you are still serving some purpose with everyone that you interact with.

But the way you interact with people is by creating your version of them in your reality so that you can see them—otherwise you wouldn’t be seeing them; they’d be invisible to you. They are interacting with you, you are interacting with them, but you’re interacting with them through a simulation that you’ve created in your reality.

Does that make sense?

Questioner: I think so. And so when I’m having a direct interaction with someone, is that both of us agreeing to co-create?

Bashar: You cannot have an interaction without an agreement. Now again, there may be differences in what each is getting out of it, there may be different purposes to it, different degrees of what you need from it, different kinds of reflections. But it cannot happen without an actual co-creation. Because you have to agree to create your version of them in order to experience them in your reality at all, and they have to do the same to experience you to any degree at all.

That’s why people on your planet that you often call insane or crazy are not having any less real of an interaction—they’re just having an interaction with something that the consensus reality doesn’t agree is part of their reality. You understand?

Questioner: Yes.

Bashar: Does that help?

Questioner: Yes, it does. And just my second question was just the same question that one of the earlier women had—about hybrid children possibly. I just wanted to know if I have any.

Bashar: 11.

Questioner: Okay. Does that help you?

Questioner: Yes, it does.

Bashar: Why? Because I don’t have children in this reality.

Questioner: I see. One moment. Do you like bedtime stories?

Questioner: Yes.

Bashar: We like wake-up stories. That’s a message from one of your children. Tell a wake-up story—make one up in your imagination. They will listen in. Okay, all right. I can do that. I know you can.
