Excitement and Music

Excitement and Music

Andre: I feel like my highest excitement is well, to be excited about music. But I mean, well, and the thing is like, I know that I… I can get into this state of being where it’s like I… I’m just fully there in the immediate experience of the moment.

Bashar: Do you mean fully here? Fully here in the immediate experience of the moment? Fully there? Here? Fully here?

Andre: In the immediate experience of the moment. And in this state… yes. I, in the process of my… of my creating music, for example, if it’s learning a new skill, yes, and it’s like learning like how to make electronic music, for example, using a computer. Yes. As I’m in this particular State of Consciousness, yes, every aspect of this… of the process that I’m exploring, I’m really just… it’s sinking into me deeply and I’m really experiencing it fully.

Bashar: And well, that’s the channeling State indeed. You understand that you all do have the ability to channel. That’s the channeling State.

Andre: And I find that I don’t want to take action in direction of my excitement of making this music unless I’m fully in this state of being.

Bashar: Well, all right. Then why not simply choose to be fully in the state of being so you will always be able to take action?

Andre: I like that. Uh, I’m wondering…

Bashar: All right. Well, I’m happy you like it. So if you like it, why not do it? Not that you have to. Just asking.

Andre: Because I noticed that I’m not there.

Bashar: And I think that… yes, I know you’re not there. You said you were here.

Andre: Well, I will do that. It’s up… I’m doing it right now.

Bashar: Yes. And I am looking forward to exploring that more. Please. All of you, don’t assume that just because the sensation of the state changes that that means you’re not still in the same general state of excitement. Excitement doesn’t mean you have to be jumping up and down. Excitement can be a sense of meditative balanced peace as well. Excitement can be expressed in a number of ways. When we use your word “excitement,” we simply mean the body’s physical translation of the vibration that’s in alignment with your true core being. It can be expressed in any number of ways. So don’t misunderstand and think that just because the energy level changes or the energy expression changes that that’s not necessarily an expression of your excitement.

Andre: it feels like my highest excitement then is to allow myself to be in that state.

Bashar: All right. And then you can act from that state on whatever opportunity presents itself to you at any given moment that contains the highest amount of excitement by reflection. Because when you say the highest excitement, there can be many expressions of your highest excitement that arrive in your life, and often there have to be. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have any motion, you wouldn’t have any movement, you wouldn’t have a path to take if you didn’t have multiple expressions of your highest excitement. Doesn’t have to just be one thing. Coming here tonight, I’m assuming, was an act of excitement for you?

Andre: Yes.

Bashar: Well, there you see. Didn’t really have anything to do with your music, true. But you acted on it because it was the most exciting thing I’ll assume that you were able to act on at that particular moment.

Andre: Yes.

Bashar: Yes. Well, then there you go. It’s simple as that. Whatever presents itself to you as an option out of all the options you have available to you at any given moment, just act on the one that you can act on best that contains the highest excitement out of all the options, and act on it with absolutely no assumption, insistence, or expectation as to what the outcome ought to be. That’s the whole formula. That’s all you have to keep doing. That’s it.

Unless of course you would like to complicate it and make it more difficult, which I won’t prevent you from doing because I know that many of you love to complicate things. But you don’t have to.

Andre: Um, in addition, I have a question. I’m wondering if there’s any… uh, any thing that through you can be reflected to me from my higher mind about what do you think I’m doing right now?

Bashar: Well, exactly that. Well, then I am reflecting to you from your higher mind, and anything that you need to know I’ll tell you. Anything I don’t tell you, you don’t need to know.

Andre: H. Is there any way to induce lucid dreaming without technology?

Bashar: I’m sure there is. A way? Of course, there are many ways. You have many books and many people that have done it. You could go talk to them. You could go read one of those books. You could use your imagination. You can do many number of kinds of things to induce lucid dreaming. We’ve already given you a few ideas. Go and find some more ideas on your own.

Go forth lucidly to find out information on how to lucid dream.

Bashar: And when you start doing that, before you know it, while you’re looking for that information, you’ll suddenly realize that you are lucidly dreaming.

Andre: I’m wondering if you could just give me any kind of cool thing about the Santa Barbara area. Just like something I can go adventuring for, exploring. Or if there’s nothing else…

Bashar: A nearby area is called Galita. Go there. Or not.

Bashar’s Preferences

Questioner: What are your preferences when you visit?

Bashar: What I’m doing right now. What I do at any given moment: reflecting energy, balancing energy, interacting, conversing, dreaming lucidly with all of you, taking trips, exploring other realities, exploring other civilizations, interacting with other civilizations, telling them about all of you, telling you about some of them, doing art.

All of these things excite me. I only do what excites me.

Questioner: Did you go swimming when you’re here?

Bashar: I am not physically on the surface of your planet.

Questioner: But do you experience it in another way?

Bashar: Yes.

Questioner: That’s nice.

Bashar: All agree?

Questioner: Have you experienced anything that is not to your liking?

Bashar: No. There are things that are not in my preference, but that has nothing to do with whether I like it or not. Because all things are equal. I can recognize what I don’t prefer without placing any kind of a value judgment on what I don’t prefer.

Questioner: That’s amazing.

Bashar: If you say so, I do say so authoritatively.

the Afterlife and Death

Andre: I’m not excited about the matter. Um, I’m not excited about the subject matter. Um, I just have a few questions. One about a general understanding of the afterlife. What does that look like? What is that if we leave this physical world?

Bashar: there are certain things that generally most of you will experience. First of all, recognize that you are going beyond the normal parameters of linear SpaceTime.

There may still be the ability to create a kind of a sense of time playing out there, but it’s nothing like the kind of time experience you have in physical reality.

In physical reality, when you think a thing, when you believe a thing, you have a time lag of manifestation of experiencing that thing to some degree. In non-physical reality, in the spirit world, you don’t. Whatever you think is instantaneously manifested around you. Okay?

The idea, however, is that the process is, for most of your people, the idea that you will suddenly float out of your body. You may recognize that your body is lying down there.

You may see people gathered around you. You may choose to listen into a few things. You may choose to go to your own funeral. You may choose to visit some people. You may choose to attempt to communicate with them. Sometimes they will perceive it, sometimes they will not. You may experience what is called the tunnel of Light, which is actually just the way of expressing in your reality the idea of a link and a bridge between one dimension and another.

And as you open up into the other dimension of spiritual reality, non-physical reality, most [of] you may experience being greeted by the non-physical Spirit counterparts of people that you have known in Life, or the idea of what you call people from other lives.

You may thus then experience the sensation of unconditional support and love, expansiveness. It will be like waking up from a dream in the way that you wake up from a dream now and go, “Oh, well, no matter how real that dream seemed, this is actually who I am and that was just a dream.” So death will be similar to that as well. “This is who I really am and physical life was just a dream.”

You will have what is generally called a Life review. You will experience every single choice you made, every consequence of every choice you made, and you will actually feel it and everything that anyone else felt as a consequence of the choices you made as if it’s all happening to you, because it is all happening to you. This will happen really in the blink of an eye, even though it may seem to be somewhat stretched out because it’s an entire lifespan in the blink of a moment.

But you can focus on any part of it that you wish, and you can make it seem to last however long you wish it to last. And the ideas that you will use this as a learning experience to balance yourself in recognizing the choices that you made and whether or not you really would have preferred to make a different choice or not.

You will add that perspective to your overall knowledge as a soul.

You will thus usually be greeted by some guide or representation of the idea of All That Is, and you will experience this great envelopment of love. And you will be given more choices: Do you wish to go back to that life in a parallel reality and continue as if you hadn’t died? Do you wish to have the experience you call reincarnation? Do you wish to move on to other dimensions, other civilizations, other realities? What do you wish to explore now?

You can generally assume that most of these things will be experienced by the general majority of you, even though there can be many, many different kinds of things. Okay?

Andre: So with that, if they… or whatever the choice is, will they still be connected to the ones here left?

Bashar: It depends. You’re always connected to everything, but depending on the choice you make, you may not experience necessarily the same kind of connection. It depends.

Andre: What does that mean?

Bashar: Well, in other words, if the choice you’re making means that you can’t experience that choice without having an experience of not remembering anyone else, then you will not remember anyone else. Even though you’re always connected. If the other choice you’re making doesn’t matter whether you maintain a conscious awareness of a connection to other people, you’ll maintain the conscious connection. It depends on what it is you’re attempting to experience as to what you will be capable of doing, in a sense.

Andre: So if someone leaves this physical Life currently and I’m still in the physical world now, and they have the choice to possibly not be connected…

Bashar: Well, no. There’s always connected. But the idea is that they may be choosing something that makes their experience not need to necessarily consciously connect with you. But they’re always connected. And more often than not, when someone awakens into spirit and experiences the idea of their true unconditional self, they will more or less always be around for you in some way, shape, or form. Now, they do have lives. They are still busy. They’re not just hovering around, “What does she want now?”

Andre: Can I call upon?

Bashar: Of course. You always can. And generally speaking, often when you go about your day and suddenly, for no apparent reason, they may cross your mind. That may actually be them communicating with you. They may be connecting with you in that way. But they will always hear you. Yeah, they will always hear you because it’s easier for them to hear you than it is for you to hear them in the way you have structured your belief system. Doesn’t mean that it can’t be as easy for you to hear them, but just because of your belief system, you usually prevent yourself from experiencing them in the way that they can experience you. Now that the blinders are off. Yeah. Because time, again, for them is not what it is for you. And generally also, they are seeing more clearly the scope of what it is as a higher mind, as a soul, you chose for yourself. So sometimes when it may seem like they’re not connecting to you, they may, in a sense, have a little bit of a hands-off policy because your own higher mind is saying, “Hands off. Don’t intervene right now. I’m going through a process.” Do you understand?

Andre: Yeah, I do.

Bashar: So they actually know, in some senses, better than your physical mind when to connect and when to sort of Leave You by your own devices. But they’re always there. And many times, even what you may think is your own thought or some synchronous thing that just occurs on your planet may actually have been the result of guidance from them, even though you may not have actually heard it at the time. They may have just needed to whisper one little thing in your mind to get you to think, “Oh, you know, to… I’ll just take this path. I don’t know why, I just feel like it.” And then suddenly you run into someone you haven’t seen in 10 years that gives you exactly what you need at that moment. “Go, what an amazing synchronicity!” But that may have come from guidance from the spirit world. But it will be unobtrusive because their first job is to make sure you are your own best guide and to remain in the background. They can’t live your life for you. Make sense?

Andre: Yes, absolutely. Is this helping illuminate this idea a little bit?

Bashar: Actually, yeah. Anything else?

Andre: Can I ask one more? I don’t know, you just asked the question there. Okay, I’m going. Sorry.

Bashar: So you don’t have to ask if you can ask.

Andre: Um, so speaking of dreams, if there is that connection that feels different than just a dream, just something thought…

Bashar: It usually is representative of an actual communication, of a real connection, of a real conversation. And most of you can tell the difference. It does have a sense of Lucidity, a sense of solidity to it. It also has a sense of consistency to it. Whereas most of what you typically call a dream, in a sense from your perspective, is sort of nonsensical, right? You can be here, you can be there, things can happen that you go, “Yeah, that makes sense that he has 12 eyes. Sure, I accept it. Nothing strange there.” You understand?

Andre: I do.

Bashar: And in fact, to go back to another question, one of the ways you can actually trick yourself into becoming Lucid in the dream is to actually train yourself to start recognizing when things are not the way they are in physical reality, instead of just accepting that that’s normal.

Andre: One last question. I’m sorry. A see?

Bashar: Yes, I know.

Andre: Do we choose to leave this physical world always?

Bashar: Now, it can be done with Precision or it can be done with a general window. But generally, you choose to explore certain themes, and when the exploration of those themes is up—well, unless you change your mind and say, “Well, there are some other things I really would like to explore”—you usually just leave in some way, shape, or form. Wow. Because you are done with that exploration. You’re done with that perspective. It’s really analogous to the idea of saying, “You know what? I’m going to go coral reef diving for a while here. I am on the boat above the water and I’m going to put on the mask, I’m going to put on the wet suit, going to put on the fins, going to put on the tanks, and I’m going to dive into the water. And I’m wearing this mask, the ego structure, so that I can see clearly under the water to have the experience I really want to have. But after I go around through the coral reefs and I’ve looked at all the pretty fish, and I finally get to the point where you go, ‘Well, you know what? That was the experience of the day. That’s what I wanted to do. I have done it and now I’m done with this experience.’ You go back up to the boat, you take off the mask, take off the wetsuit, take off the fins, take off the tanks. You’re back in spirit.” Understand?

Andre: I do. Simple. And then you can go diving again whenever you wish to have that experience. It’s up to you. So is it possible that you could be resist… like, is there a part, a deeper soul that knows or has chosen to leave, but then the ego part of you is resisting that?

Bashar: Oh, that happens all the time on your planet. Many of you die Kicking and Screaming. Okay. Because again, you’ve trained the ego part to think of that as an actual annihilation of identity, and it’s not. So as long as the ego thinks that when you die you actually cease to exist, it’s going to go into survival mode and it’s going to panic and it’s going to kick and scream and resist all the way. But the idea is that if it starts to learn—if you start to train the ego to understand that you are a part of me, my identity will always be a part of me, but in the physical ego I don’t need the diving mask right now. I use the diving mask when I go diving. I don’t need the diving mask on the boat. But I’ll always have you at my side. I will never abandon you and you will always be there with me. You will always be all right. So in that, then the ego can relax and can understand that you’re not discarding it. It’s not going to cease to exist. It has a place within your total Consciousness. And it can relax. And then you won’t panic and you won’t resist the idea of going into Spirit.

Andre: Amazing. Which is just another phase of life, in a sense.

Bashar: Truly, there is no afterlife. There’s just life in different forms. That’s all. There is no afterlife. You will always be alive forever. Wow. You’re an eternal being. You may change your form, you may change your dimension, you may change your experience, but there is no afterlife, not really.

Andre: Would you say it’s possible if you’re one still sitting in your own physical body, could you experience to… to see with physical eyes the physical particles or um, of that person that’s left or that Soul that’s…

Bashar: Okay. You can train your senses to expand a bit to be able to perceive things that are now at this point invisible to you. And simultaneously, what often happens is that spirit, in a sense, will lower its vibrational frequency to make itself a little bit easier to see in your sensory range. Yeah. But yes, you can train yourself to see more clearly the idea of the higher frequencies. And many people do, and they see spirits around them all the time.

Andre: We do. We interact with Spirits all the time. It’s not like they are really gone to us. Us, our world is populated by them. Really. As we have said, physiologically we only have about 250 million individuals on our planet physically, but we really actually come and go with billions of individuals non-physically. Okay. So we interact with them all the time.

Andre: And so as I walk away from this microphone, you’re saying that if there’s anyone departed from me in this physical life, they’re with me now?

Bashar: Of course they are. Especially because you’re talking about them. So their non-physical ears are burning.

Andre: That’s all I needed to know.

Bashar: One Moment. Y, is there something special for you about Patunas or purple?

Y (Questioner): Purple is my favorite color.

Bashar: Yeah. All right. Then that’s a sign that there is somebody with you right now because they gave us that information to give to you.

Languages, Parallel Realities, and Radiation

Questioner: I speak languages in my sleep. Yes, some of them are from Earth and some are not.

Bashar: Well, again, as you expand your senses and make connections more consciously to other Realms and other civilizations, you have connections to. You may start to translate some of that information out in that way.

It doesn’t always have to remain silent. If you have a natural penchant to work with vibrations and words and sounds, you may, in a sense, Channel some of the languages of other civilizations in some way, shape, or form into your reality. It may be your way of incorporating and integrating those vibrational ideas a little bit more concretely in your physical world for you.

Questioner: Are uh, any of the languages I’m speaking from Sirius?

Bashar: Yes.

Questioner: How do we shift through parallel realities. And the way we create memory from the present.

Bashar: you don’t experience time at all if you’re not shifting through these parallel realities. Again, the analogy is very similar to the idea of your film strip with its multiple frames.

In any one single frame, there’s no movement, no time, no experience. As you run the film strip past the projector light, you’ll create the illusion of movement, of space, of change on the screen as a movie. It’s a similar idea. Every single parallel reality is literally a frozen frame. No time, no experience. You shift your Consciousness through the various parallel reality frames like a projector light and create the experience of continuity, the illusion of time, space, change, movement.

But you’re doing that automatically, billions of times a second. Billions of parallel realities a second. The increment, if you wish, the tick of the clock, is what you have in your Sciences called the Planck time and Planck length. That’s why the frames are billions of times per second.

So smooth, so rapid, you don’t even know you’re doing it. But you’re doing it all the time. It’s never the same reality, never the same parallel experience from moment to moment to moment to moment. That’s automatic. Can’t help it. Can’t stop it unless you go to another dimension where it’s unnecessary.

you thus then create that linear idea of time, then you have to order the information you’re getting from other realities, other simultaneously coexisting experiences.

You have to put it in some kind of logical order that your physical mind can process. So you’ve created the idea of beginning, middle, end, past, present, future. And whatever type of information you’re cross-connecting to, you will place in whatever order it serves you best. So if the idea of downloading information from another experience serves you to explore your theme by placing it seemingly in the past, so that by placing it in the past you can say, “Oh, well, because it’s in the past, I have already learned from it,” and thus you thus then know what you need to know because you’re assuming that if it’s in the past, well, you must have learned something by now from it.

Oh, yeah. You understand? But that memory is created in the present, and you’re just placing it where you think it will actually make the most sense for your journey experience.

This is why we have talked about the idea of the 13th Step: that every change is a total change. And when you actually make any change, you are literally a different person.

if you are literally a different person, then that means you actually have a different history than the person that was here a moment ago. Literally a different history.

that’s why, just to use the example of addiction, if someone actually suddenly realizes that they really actually are a different person, they will no longer feel the urge for the addiction. Not because they have lost the urge, but because they never had it. It’s not in their history. If they have become a different enough person with a definition that has nothing to do with the definition of the person that was there a moment ago, so it’s not like you lose the urge; it’s that you never had the urge.

that’s why it’s not there now.

Every change is a total change.

When you truly begin to wrap your understanding into that, you will understand how free you are to Define who you are at every single given moment.

Questioner: So how does it work with a friend that you haven’t seen in five years and you meet up with them and you both share the same memories from way back?

Bashar: Well, again, as we say, there are cross connections energetically, and you have agreed that for some reason it serves you to have similar memories to play the roles you need to play. It’s All by agreement. It’s all an orchestration. It’s all a play. You all have your scripts, you all have your parts. You can improvise, but nevertheless, it’s a play. Cool?

Questioner: Thank you. Does this help you?

Bashar: Yeah. I have one more question.

Questioner: Yes. Um, I’d really appreciate some guidance from you on um, what to do or what to think about all the radiation that’s pouring out of Japan. I don’t want to reinforce a negative world, and yet you brought up the question. I did. I can’t… I can’t seem to get away from the information. It’s like… so what’s the fear-based belief that makes you anchor to that idea?

Questioner: Exactly. It’s probably that I’ll get sick.

Bashar: And why do you believe that that’s necessary for you?

Questioner: I don’t want to believe that.

Bashar: Well, why are you afraid that that’s necessary for you?

Questioner: I don’t know. Sure you do.

Bashar: That that’s necessary for me? Well, the idea obviously must be based on some belief system that you’re sharing with someone, maybe the mass consensus, that such things must be detrimental. Now, it’s true that the general Mass consensus may buy into that, and therefore for the majority of people that may be true. But it doesn’t mean that you have to circumvent radioactivity in order to Simply know that your synchronicity will put you where you need to and give you what you need in life to ensure that you will be all right. In other words, if you have created the exploration of a theme in your life that doesn’t necessitate the idea of having the experience you’re talking about, then no matter, no matter whether that exists in the overall general population or not, you simply won’t come into contact with that particular effect. And if you do, then there’s a reason for it. Even if the reason is only to realize that you’ve attracted yourself to it with a belief system that you don’t prefer, to give you the opportunity to change it. So anything you use in a positive way will have a positive effect in your life, even if it seemingly starts out to be a negative experience. You need to learn to redefine things in the way that you prefer to and trust that your life will unfold in the way that it needs to.

Questioner: Got it. Yeah. So give it a positive definition. Yes. Believe that it can’t hurt me.

Bashar: Yeah. It’s not about believing that it can’t hurt you. Okay? Because again, you’re using, in a sense, a negative to create a positive. Okay? It simply has nothing to do with you. You can observe, you can recognize other people may be utilizing negative belief systems. What’s that got to do with you? Nothing. Now, the degree to which you believe or know that that’s true is the degree to which you will have a shared experience or not. And remember, knowing is synonymous with action, with behavior.

Bashar: Yeah. What you know to be true, you just do. You just behave as if you know it’s true. You don’t question it, you don’t think about it, you don’t wonder if you believe it. You just do it because you know it to be true. It’s ingrained in you. Make sense?
