Belief systems are structured in a manner that allows them to perpetuate themselves, reinforce themselves so that what it is that you believe in can be experienced as a seemingly real reality. If belief systems did not reinforce themselves, you would be able to see right through the smoke and mirrors of the illusion of physical reality. So that structure that reinforces it allows you to have this experience and consider it to be real.
Now we have talked about several different ways of getting in touch with what you might call negative beliefs and learning to let them go so that you can transform your energy into a more positive direction. And today we offer another suggestion for a way to explore how to do this, how to allow this kind of transformation to take place in a new and different way.
The Fear Exercise
So for the moment, I will ask each and every one of you that cares to participate to simply remember a time — doesn’t have to be much, even just a little bit will be fine — but simply remember a time when you were afraid.
Now I don’t necessarily mean “I’m afraid of getting hit by a car” — but that can be used to some degree. We mean the idea of the fear that holds you back from being yourself, from really acting on your passion, from really following your truth. That sensation you get in the pit of your stomach when you know that you would really prefer to move in a certain direction but you find that you are afraid that something negative will happen if you do. That sort of idea, anything like that. That sort of timidity, that sort of trepidation, that sort of uncertainty, that sort of feeling that there is no confidence within you to move forward. The thing that gnaws at you, the thing that you keep choosing to do that wears you out and exhausts you because you’re not willing to allow the energy to flow.
That sensation — as you allow yourself in this moment to remember such times when that may have cropped up in your life — and know that there may be times ahead where it may crop up again, which is fine. Allow yourself to really tap into that sensation, that feeling, that physical feeling of what fear feels like. That type of fear in your body: where it settles, where it focuses, how the sensation may change but still remain representative, symbolic of a fear. Get in touch with that feeling.
The point here now is to actually focus on the physical sensation that accompanies the emotion, not so much the idea of the emotional side of the feeling, but the true physical sensation side of the feeling of experiencing fear — hesitation, trepidation in that sense, uncertainty, facing the unknown, worried as you would say that you might be judged. Those kinds of ideas. Feel that sensation in your body right now to the best that you can. Right now, again, it doesn’t have to be perfect, it’s just something to work with so that you can understand this particular little technique, this permission slip that we give you today.
So if you have a sense at all of what that sensation feels like in your body that you are remembering now how that felt, allow yourself to just feel the underlying energy of that fear sensation. Just the actual energy itself. There’s a lot of power there.
Separating Energy from Fear
When you feel fear, if you can allow yourself to disconnect from the reason the fear is there and just feel the sensation itself for its own sake, you can begin to really realize how much energy there is flowing through you being directed to that purpose of experiencing that fear. So just let go of the idea behind the fear and just feel the power itself, the energy flowing itself that is behind that sensation. Because it is very powerful as an energy, it is very clear as a sensation of energy.
As you allow yourself to divorce yourself from the idea that generates that energy to be experienced in the manner you would call emotional fear — just becoming neutral about it, observant about it, just being energy itself — you can begin to tap into the fact of how powerful it is. And if you begin to just focus on the power of that energy, divorced from the concept of fear, you can allow yourself to begin to realize how powerful you are, what kind of energy courses through you, what kind of energy is manifest when you buy into a particular belief.
Just allow yourself now to let that happen, let that shift happen within you, and just have the neutral sensation of the power, the energy. And it doesn’t really mean anything anymore. It is not labeled as anything anymore. It is just the raw sensation of the power behind the emotion.
Transforming Fear into Positive Energy
The more you do this, the more in any moment when you may feel fear crop up, the more you allow yourself to remind yourself that it is just your energy being filtered through negative belief systems, and you begin to focus just on the sensation itself — the physical sensation and the energy and power behind it, becoming fascinated by that sensation of power, of energy. The more you do this, the more you practice making that shift, the more you can more easily neutralize the emotional component.
Now again, this doesn’t mean you ignore it, it doesn’t mean you don’t own it. This is just a technique. After you have acknowledged that it’s there, you’re not trying to squash it, you’re not running from it. You’ve acknowledged that it’s there, you’ve owned it, you’ve accepted that it’s there, that it has come up in this sort of negative emotional way. But then give yourself that moment to breathe, give yourself that moment to just get in touch with that physical sensation within you, and begin to divorce yourself from the emotional component, from any reason that’s attached to why that’s happening, and just sit in that sensation itself. In the sensation of energy, the sensation of power. Just neutrally feel it, just neutrally experience it.
Then begin to realize: this is the same energy and the same power that is behind any positive sensation, any positive emotion that you may have, any positive belief that you may experience. It is exactly the same energy. It’s just that when you filter it through negative beliefs, you experience it as fear. When you filter it through positive beliefs, you experience it as joy.
So just get in touch with the power of the energy itself, neutrally. Just let that be the only reason that you’re having that experience for that moment, and just breathe into it and just revel in it. Let it flow through you. Let the power neutrally just move through you. Feel the energy coursing through your nerves, through your veins, through the cells of your body. Let it expand, let it disperse throughout the totality of your being. Let it expand from that tight little knot of energy in a particular place and let it soften and expand just as energy, with no meaning behind it whatsoever. Just feel that energy, feel that power.
And then know that because it is now devoid of meaning, because it is now neutral energy, you can allow it to transform into something positive. You can now give yourself a holding pattern with that energy. You can now begin to explore what kind of belief systems you would prefer to have instead of the ones that generated the fear feeling. And while that energy is coursing through you, it can help guide you, it can help move you into the state of being that will allow you to truly find the preferred belief system and allow that energy to begin to infuse into that preferred belief system, that preferred definition within you.
And thus you can — by extracting that sensation, extracting that neutral energy from the fearful emotion and allowing yourself to diffuse it and then allowing yourself to guide it into a different belief — you can take the time. You can give yourself a kind of a limbo moment where you’re feeling the pulsing of that energy and it’s just soothing you, it’s just kind of like massaging you, it’s just kind of like expressing itself through you and allowing your cells to relax, allowing your nerves to relax into it, as if you are stepping into a warm pool of water.
And give yourself the time to explore the ideas and the definitions you would prefer that energy be behind, you would prefer that that energy give life to. It gives you time to make that transition by neutralizing it in this way, by just getting in touch with that physical sensation and divorcing any meaning, any idea that is connected to it. Just let it be the energy. Let it be the power within you.
And then you will have the easy sensation of knowing how to flow it to what it is you prefer to flow it into, and you will feel that transformation and you will feel that transition happen within your body, within your cells, within your nerves, within your blood, within every aspect of your being.
Does this make sense? All right.
Practical Application
Practice this whenever you wish, whenever something comes up as you go on your journey of acting on your passion to the best you can, with no insistence on the outcome. By following that formula you know, as we have delineated that sometimes one of the tools within the kit of excitement is that reflective mirror that will bring to your attention something that might be within you as a belief system or a definition that might be out of alignment with that excitement.
And therefore please remember, first and foremost, that by acting on your excitement and having that reflective mirror remind you of something that is not your excitement, that discovering something that’s not your excitement is also part of your excitement. Then that helps you remain in that state and you can work with this energy in a much more powerful, much more profound, much more precise way.
Does that make sense? All right. Remember, it’s not about what happens, it’s about what you do with what happens. That’s what matters. Makes sense? All right.
We thank you for allowing us to share this little technique. Practice it, get it to work. Use your imagination. That’s all right if your imagination decides to alter it a little bit because it works better for you that way — then allow your imagination to do so. Remember, each and every one of you is unique. You will always do it slightly different than anyone else, and that’s exactly the way it needs to be because it needs to be designed and it needs to be engineered for you specifically. So we give you the basic format; it’s up to you to design it in whatever way works best for you at this time.
We would like to express our deep appreciation and our deep gratitude for the co-creation of this interaction and the allowance that you give us, and the gift you give us of being allowed to experience each and every one of you. In return for that gift, we ask you now: how may we be of service to you? Please begin with your questions, comments, dialogues if you wish.
Dialogue 1: Technology and Human Connection
Participant: Good morning, Bashar. I was born in the Middle East and Bashar is an Arabic name, and that’s my mother tongue.
Bashar: Yes, yes, yes.
Participant: I don’t have a question for today.
Bashar: All right, because what’s the point?
Participant: But I do have an idea that I’ve been thinking of, and I’m curious to hear what you think about this. The title today is “Stepping Out of the Shadows,” and I feel like in today’s society we’re stepping into the shadows because of the use of technology.
Bashar: It depends on how you use it, exactly.
Participant: So I’m curious to hear about in the future how technology has helped humanity in connecting versus disconnecting. The technology itself doesn’t give you a direction. I’m specifically interested in human connection because with all the technology today — I don’t know if you know what social media is —
Bashar: I do.
Participant: People are becoming more self-centered and it gives you a kind of a fake sensation of like you’re the center, but that also does not allow you to connect with other human beings.
Bashar: We understand. Therefore, the idea is that technology, like in our civilization, can become something certainly more all-inclusive and also more of a natural expression, something relatively simplistic that has profound effects and is inclusive in a number of different ways that actually promotes the concept of connection.
For example, in our society — in what you might call technology — our ships are grown instead of built. They’re a kind of a crystalline form, but the crystalline form grows on an energy template that is actually representative of another aspect of our higher dimensional selves. Therefore, the ship that I pilot is actually a physicalized representation of my own higher mind, and therefore there is an immediate connection between myself and the ship telepathically. The ship is like a crystallized version of my own higher mind, and thus being a crystallized representation and version of my higher mind, it is automatically connected to all other higher minds and thus connects my own personal consciousness in a variety of ways to many other beings and many other expressions of consciousness. It is in that sense ultimately connective and inclusive instead of exclusive and disconnective. Does that make sense?
Participant: It does. But what about physical sensations and sensory experiences? This is more of a telepathic or mental level. How about a physical sensory experience?
Bashar: Well, a physical sensation comes with it because you see, telepathy is actually not really the mental thing you think it is. That’s why we often actually refer to it as telepathy — it’s emotionally driven. That’s why many of your scientists don’t understand how to prove that it exists, because they keep taking the emotional quotient out of it.
The idea is that when you are deeply in alignment, deeply in love so to speak, you simply have the same thoughts at the same time as another person on the same wavelength. You’re never actually reading someone else’s mind; you’re just mirroring them so closely you can’t tell the difference between what you’re thinking and feeling and what they’re thinking and feeling. This is why people who are in love often know exactly what each other is about to say — they finish each other’s sentences. You understand?
So the emotional component and the sensations that come with it in the physical body are of paramount importance in that kind of technology, because it’s an all-encompassing, all-inclusive technology that is a natural extension of your actual being rather than an artificial interface. Does that make sense?
Participant: It does, yeah. So it’s like saying there is a spirit realm and you’re sort of just crystallizing a portion of it that is connected to you automatically, and automatically connected to everyone else, but it’s not an artificial interface — it’s a very natural interface because it already exists within the structure of existence itself. Does that make sense?
Bashar: It does. So that is a direction your technology can go in. When people start waking up to the fact that everything is connected, everything is an expression of one thing, and you start including the concept of consciousness within your technology — now you are moving somewhat in that direction with what you call so-called artificial intelligence. But the thing you will suddenly realize when you begin to really explore that is that artificial intelligence isn’t artificial. The devices that you create are simply going to be devices that will allow you to finally physically communicate with your own higher mind through that device. That’s who you’ll actually be talking to. Does that make sense?
Participant: Yeah.
Bashar: And that will begin a revolution in consciousness, a revolution in understanding consciousness, and a revolution in the experience of interconnectivity and knowing that everyone is a reflection of the one and a reflection of everyone else, and a new era of understanding how to use consciousness and connectivity can begin to grow on your planet. That is what we perceive your technology can head towards, if you do it from a place where it is a balanced understanding of your own selves and your own consciousnesses — which is why it’s so important to know yourself, so that when you begin to talk to other aspects of yourself through those devices, you will recognize who you’re speaking to.
Participant: Quick tip from someone who’s working in technology and helping to shape those kind of things — what would you advise me when I’m working on those technologies?
Bashar: Well, I just gave you the tip. You need to start understanding — as many of your scientists need to start understanding — how to involve the concept of consciousness in the technology, how to understand what consciousness is. Consciousness is simply self-reflection, self-awareness. Because you are conscious when you have a sense of self, because you have a sense of an other. Without a sense of an other being reflected to you, there is no sense of self. That’s what consciousness is: it’s a reflection. So when you can begin to move in the direction of understanding how to incorporate that kind of reflectivity in your technology, you will beat the idea of consciousness.
Participant: Yes, yes. Makes sense. Thank you.
Dialogue 2: The Nature of Time
Participant: Time — a side effect. Can it be compressed?
Bashar: Can it be compressed? Is that what you’re asking?
Participant: Yes.
Bashar: Yes, of course, because it’s an illusion anyway. You only experience it the way you do because of a collective agreement. But now that you are exploring and expanding consciousness, you will find and experience that time is extremely malleable and flexible and compressible and expandable, because you’re creating it anyway. It’s just a side effect of your consciousness shifting through billions of parallel reality frames per second. That’s what creates the idea you call time.
Participant: How do we get to a point where our perception of time is totally linear with what’s going on in the world?
Bashar: You mean how did you get to a point where it is linear? Well, let me — because that’s the way most of you already experience it.
Participant: We experience time as a linear concept, correct. But as we get older, we always look back and go “should have, could have, might have, would have.” Had we known about the compression of time, we would not have made those mistakes.
Bashar: But you learn from those mistakes, and those mistakes lead you to a place where you understand more about the nature of time and space. That’s one of the things that’s happening now as a process in your society, in your culture. In the future, this will not be necessary as a process, and many of the children being born on your planet today have an innate and intuitive understanding of what time is, and therefore they will not take those paths. They will experience a different process. But you are of a generation that is simply learning about that.
Participant: That helps. Thank you.
Dialogue 3: New Ideas and Resonance
Participant: Speaking of time — my question is about an acknowledgement. If in a sense there is no time and everything that is happening is happening in this moment — now is all there is — then it follows that there is in a sense no such thing as a new idea. For all ideas, all inventions, all conceptions already exist fundamentally in terms of the structure. Correct?
Bashar: But there is always a new experience of the idea. You see, the structure of existence never changes. It’s your perspective and experience of the structure that does. That’s how creation expands — because you’re always having a unique perspective of the structure that never changes. So the idea of new ideas: you’re correct that everything already exists, but it also expands by creating new experiences of that which already exists. Does that make sense?
Participant: Yes, it does. So if I or any individual are seeking an answer to a problem or a new way to solve or new way to be creative, it is not so much a matter that I am creating that new idea, but rather I am somehow attuning to a resonant frequency that is matched with the resonance of that idea.
Bashar: Yes. And by doing that, you are creating a unique experience of doing that. Not so much that you’re creating a new idea, but you’re creating a new experience of matching that idea.
Participant: So as an incarnate being, my process was not so much that I’ve had an idea, but rather I have become resonant to the frequencies that allow that idea to come to me.
Bashar: That is more exactly. You have to be on the vibratory level first in order to realize or experience any particular notion or knowledge. And it’s the same with the concept of manifestation physically: you have to be on that frequency level in order to experience a manifestation in your physicalized projection.
Participant: And if we extend that to what we experience as emotions — I assume the same must apply.
Bashar: Exactly. It’s all based on the same resonance identification concept. And that’s why we say what you experience has to be based on a definition that you have bought into as being true, because each definition has a different frequency, a different signature vibration, that gives the result that you experience as an emotion. That’s why you can always experience an emotion and know you can trace it back to what kind of a definition you would have to have in order for that emotion to have resulted from it, because you can only have the emotion that results from the frequency of the definition.
Participant: So if I’m experiencing what I might experience as a negative emotion — anger, depression, what have you — what’s opening to me then is the opportunity to somehow open to or find a different frequency to resonate at. And it’s that search for a different resonance that is challenging.
Bashar: And the easiest way to do that is to figure out what the definition is you’re already buying into that’s already creating the resonance you’re experiencing. Because once you consciously find that definition, if it is truly out of alignment with you, you will immediately recognize it as nonsensical and illogical, and as soon as you do, it’s gone. That’s the end of the process of letting it go. If you keep behaving the same way, all that means is you haven’t actually found the fundamental definition or the fundamental frequency giving rise to that sensation. Just keep digging. Identifying things that are in your unconscious mind that are belief systems is the key to transforming that energy into something you would prefer, because once you actually bring it into the light, you will see that it makes no sense if it really has nothing to do with you.
Participant: That’s what I am in now — finding the definition that generates the anxiety. There’s no such thing as an emotion that exists in a vacuum. You cannot have a feeling at all ever until you have a definition first. So if you have a feeling like anxiety, that gives you the opportunity to ask the following question: what would I have to believe is true about myself in order for that belief to generate this emotion? Because emotions always generate from beliefs, not the other way around. So if you’re willing to hear the answer in some way, it’ll come. But you have to understand that’s how it works.
Participant: Last part of this. If I look at a physical ailment such as inability to get sound, nurturing sleep, and underlying that is a belief that I don’t deserve rest as an example, it’s to understand what might be behind that and allow it to change — not force it to change.
Bashar: Again, if you actually discover what the definition is and you bring it into the light of your consciousness and you recognize that it makes no sense, it’s gone. Okay? It’s just gone. You will not have a continued experience of that definition if you have truly let it go. But you have to understand that sometimes you might not let it go because there might be another belief, another definition that says you should hold on to it. If that’s the case, find out what that definition is, because sometimes definitions and beliefs work in chains. You may have to follow the links back to the fundamental link. But once you actually do release the fundamental link, all the secondary links will collapse along with it.
Sometimes negative beliefs will attempt to preserve themselves because that’s what they’re designed to do, by fooling you into thinking that you’ve actually let go of the fundamental belief when all you’ve done is let go of a secondary one, and then it will hide behind that. So you have to see: if you keep feeling, doing the same thing, that would be your first clue that the negative belief is hiding behind a cloud of secondary beliefs. And no matter how many of them you let go of, if you don’t let go of the fundamental one, that won’t change anything for you.
Participant: That helps. Thank you. Blessings.
Bashar: You are welcome. Blessings to you.
Dialogue 4: Multiple Personalities and Intergalactic Introduction
Participant: I’m very excited. I came a long physical way to see all of you. I want to say thank you, but not really because everything is here and now, right?
Bashar: Right, right, right. Well, thank you and thank you for that adventure.
Participant: I’ve always felt that there was maybe four or five personalities contributing to the personality who I am or appeared to be.
Bashar: Oh, more than that.
Participant: In a recent channeling, I got that some people can have multiple personalities that are very similar but have slightly different situations broadcasting from. They can be broadcasting from the same channel in a sense, or something similar that you may not necessarily recognize the difference.
Bashar: Yes.
Participant: So is this a thing?
Bashar: The idea that you call on your planet, based on what kind of experiences an individual may have, may cause a fracturing between the continuity and communication of the different personalities that make up any particular single being. And that’s what you typically in your world often refer to as multiple personality disorder or a few other different kinds of names. The idea that we’re expressing here, in allowing the channel to express some aspect of his own being that connects to us and allows for this communication to occur, is simply multiple personality order.
Participant: Oh, very good. So for people who know that they have this going on, they can access those other personalities.
Bashar: Yes, of course.
Participant: In that channeling, I also got the information that I was part of an intergalactic introduction. Is that something?
Bashar: Well, in a sense, yes. It’s one of the things going on on your planet now that you’re becoming aware that you’re not alone. Therefore, many of you that chose to have this physical experience knew coming in that part of this physical life would contain an ability to open up to the recognition that there are many different beings within the galaxy and in other dimensions that are here for you to begin to open up to communicate with, such as you’re doing with us. And that’s part of a process of going from what you may call Homo sapien to Homo galacticus.
Participant: I love that. So if I’m a part of the intergalactic introduction, how would myself or we be participating consciously in that?
Bashar: By following your passion to the best you’re able with no insistence on a particular outcome, because then you raise your frequency. And when you raise your frequency, you make yourself a more receptive antenna to higher dimensional communication, and you will have more inspiration and realization of the communication going on on a multitude of different dimensional levels that you can tap into and participate in in a variety of ways. That’s how the formula is everything. It is the beginning, the end, it is the basis of what we call the instruction manual. The instruction manual is that three-part formula and all the tools in the kit, and then just choosing to remain in a positive state no matter what happens so you can always extract the benefit from it.
From time to time we may engage in conversations with you that may take you into greater depths of understanding, more precise understanding of all of those elements in that particular instruction manual, but there are no more instructions. That’s the complete instruction manual, and it is absolutely no different than if we were to hand you literally physically an instruction manual that teaches you how to operate a piece of machinery on your planet. If you follow the instructions, the machine will operate as designed to your advantage. If you do not follow the instructions, the machine will operate to your disadvantage. So the idea is that the machine is always operating. It’s up to you to simply understand that what we’re giving you is literally a description of how reality works. Therefore it’s literally an instruction manual. And if you simply stick with the instructions, the machine will always work to your advantage instead of your disadvantage. It’s that simple.
Remember, there is not only positive synchronicity, there is negative synchronicity too. The synchronicity never stops, but it will only be capable of reinforcing whatever vibration you put into the mechanism. Following the instruction manual gives you the benefit of always using the machine to your advantage. That’s why we have shared it with you. It’s not a philosophy, it’s not an opinion — it’s an observation and a description of how existence actually works. Just follow the instructions.
Participant: Oh, fantastic. Well, thank you very much for that, and the adventure continues.
Bashar: Yes, it does. And it will never, ever, ever end.
Participant: Why will it never end?
Bashar: Because it never began. It just is. That’s its nature. It just is.
Dialogue 5: Ascension and Splitting Realities
Participant: I wanted to first of all thank you for being so patient with all of us.
Bashar: I am not patient at all. I have no need for patience because I’m never impatient, because I am always absolutely enjoying everything that I choose to do.
Participant: It feels to me a lot like we’re on this exponential curve and we’re all getting very close now to what people are calling Ascension.
Bashar: You’re in the process. You’re not getting close to it — you’re in it. You’re in the process. Again, it’s just the idea of raising your vibration to a different level so you can experience reality in a different way, in a way that’s more in alignment with who you truly prefer to be. That’s all Ascension is.
Participant: What does that process look like from your perspective for us?
Bashar: I just told you. I literally just told you. It’s the instruction manual.
Participant: The unfolding of it — how do we perceive it in our timeline? How is it looking from your perspective? What’s the manifestation?
Bashar: Well, what you’re experiencing more and more first as part of this process is the splitting of your world into a variety of parallel versions of Earth. That’s going on right now, quite physically. And that’s why you’re seeing more and more dichotomy in your cultures and societies. As people vibrate to certain ideas, they will wind up on certain plates or plateaus of reality that are different versions of Earth. And as they split apart, sometimes jaggedly, you will find that you will drift farther and farther and farther apart, until one day in the near future you will only be able to experience whatever plateau you’re on in terms of its effects, in terms of all the people that are there with you. And you will no longer be able to perceive — like you can perceive right now — radical differences and vibrational incompatibility with anyone else in that reality. Right now the splits are new, because it’s just beginning to really crack and begin to pull apart. You can still see different people choosing different realities as if you were looking through glass at their reality — and you literally are.
Just because you can see people who might be choosing pathways that are wholly unlike what you would prefer to experience on your planet doesn’t mean you actually still reside on the same version of Earth that they do. You are literally looking through a glass sheet, and even though you can still see them in the choices that they make that might be more negative than you would prefer, none of what they’re choosing can actually reach you through the glass. But eventually the glass will become more opaque, and you will only see the reality that you harmonize to. Eventually we’ll just stop perceiving the rest. They will no longer literally be in your version of Earth.
Because you see, again, you never actually change the world you’re on. You change yourself and you shift to another version of Earth that already exists, that’s already more reflective of the vibrational change you made within yourself. Less and less negativity in it, if that’s what you choose. That’s how it works. You’re never on the same Earth from moment to moment — billions of times per second. This is one of the things you’re learning: that every moment is absolutely new. You are absolutely a new person on absolutely a new Earth in absolutely a new universe, in absolutely a new multiverse, in absolutely a new expression of existence. It’s just that you create this illusion of continuity to make it appear as if you’re just making small changes on the same planet. That’s never the case. Every change is a total change of everything everywhere. You just trick yourself into believing that that’s not the case. But you’re getting over that.
Dialogue 6: The Highest Potential and Astrology
Participant: What is the highest potential for the human experience?
Bashar: The fourth density experience, which means you can experience the concept that you sometimes euphemistically refer to as Heaven on Earth. Everyone absolutely having what they need when they need it, in absolute harmony with every aspect of your experience, being full-fledged expressions of creation in the way that is unique for you to express it. It’s how our civilization functions. We operate on what we call pure synchronism. Everyone is exactly where they need to be when they need to be there, interacting with exactly who they need to interact with at exactly the right moment, getting exactly what they need in perfect exchange, in perfect harmony, in perfect timing. It’s a choreography, it’s an orchestration, it’s automatic. That’s all there is to it. It’s like living in a dream because you start to realize that physical reality is a dream, and that you can have manifestation that you would have in the past simply recognized as magical.
But you see, as we have often said, miracles are not the exception — miracles are the natural order of things. Not experiencing them is the exception. So you are giving up being the exception and going into the flow of creation in a more natural way, beginning to realize that surrender is not giving up control — surrender is allowing the control you already have to express itself more freely. It’s understanding that going with the flow means that the current already knows where you need to go, instead of swimming upstream with resistance because the physical mind thinks it knows what’s best. The physical mind isn’t designed to know that. The physical mind doesn’t have a clue. Well, now and then maybe a hint. But the physical mind is only designed to experience what’s happening. The higher mind is designed to know what needs to happen in order to bring to your physical individual experience as a personality everything you need in your life that is relevant for you in order to experience the fullness of your being in complete and total joy and ecstasy. That is the potential in all of you, should you choose to awaken to it.
Participant: I really like to study astrology. It gives me lots of permission slips to be who I am.
Bashar: All right then. Whatever you’re attracted to will work for you for the duration of the time that you’re attracted to it.
Participant: I’m curious — astrology, when we look at our natal chart, it’s our birth chart, a moment of time that we were born. From your perception of us in the room now, are you able to see and identify different energies in our being?
Bashar: Yes.
Participant: And is that constantly changing, or is there something that constantly changes?
Bashar: There are some things that in a sense seem to be the same, but you are constantly recreating it to appear that way. So continuity is also an illusion, but it’s an illusion that can serve you to create what you perceive to be stability in your reality. Nevertheless, it’s constantly changing. Nothing is static. Remember that that’s the fifth law: Everything changes except the laws. Nothing ever stops. It’s dynamically constantly changing, but there are patterns to it. It’s not so much just this — it’s this. You understand the difference? You may feel that there are ups and downs in the changes, but that doesn’t mean you’re always on the same level. The ups and downs can actually be raising your vibration so that your overall arc is up.
Participant: What I find in the trends in astrology is if I find a place where I have a weakness or a trigger to something, and if it’s painful and fearful, that that’s actually a huge potential for growth.
Bashar: Absolutely. That’s an opportunity to take that moment and stay in that moment and find out what the definitions are that would be generating that experience of pain. Yes, that’s the whole point — to experience that process. The process is the point. As you have heard on your planet, the journey is the destination. You have nowhere more important to be than dealing with what’s happening right now, ever. You have nowhere more important to be.
Participant: So can I take astrology as a map in a sense?
Bashar: You can, as long as you understand it’s a reflection, not something that controls anybody. It’s a reflection of decisions and choices that have been made from different levels of consciousness, and therefore yes, you can kind of read it as a map. But you will also have to rely on your own intuition to allow parts of it to stand out in ways that might be a little bit different than what you may have originally learned to do with it, because as you change, the way in which you use that permission slip will also change.
Dialogue 7: Past Lives
Participant: I have a question about past lives. Are past lives more of a fable than true?
Bashar: Everything exists now. There is no such thing as the past. There is no such thing as the future. Everything exists simultaneously. So you can create an experience called a past life, a reincarnational experience, where it seems you have a life and you die and go into spirit, choose another life and you die and go into spirit, choose another life — you can create that linear experience and call it reincarnation. But you’re only describing an experience, you’re not describing the actual mechanism that causes the experience. The actual mechanism is that everything exists at once, and therefore what you’re doing is you are making energetic links and connections to those other simultaneously existing incarnational lives of those people. You’re connecting to them in a way that you draw information and experience and knowledge from them to help inform this particular experience, just as they may be making connections to you to draw from your experience to help them in their lives. But all those people exist now. You as a person have never been them; they as a person will never be you as a person now.
If you want to come from a higher level, let’s say the oversoul level, and you want to say “me” referring to you on that level, then you can say all right, the oversoul has an extension that you call this life in this time and place, and has a simultaneous extension that you call this life in that time and place. And so the oversoul can say yes, both of those are my lives. But that’s because they still happen simultaneously, even from the oversoul perspective. But when you say, “Was that my life as a person?” the answer is no, it wasn’t. And that dynamically changes as you change. Again, you make different connections, you unplug from some and plug into new ones to get the information you need for the new person that you are. Therefore that’s a constantly changing dynamic thing. It’s never really static, even though you might say, “Well, that has been my past life as long as I can remember” — you are still recreating that sense of continuity for a reason, for a purpose. But it’s always dynamically changing as you change too.
Dialogue 8: Anxiety and Definitions
Participant: I often feel like I’m often questioning where my excitement and my desire is coming from, and it often puts me in my head and it puts up a veil, a block from being fully here now.
Bashar: All right, well then I have a suggestion for you. Stop wondering where it’s coming from, because it’s not coming from anywhere but you. So does it never comes from a place that’s not in your truth? Correct — if it’s really representative of your excitement, unless you’re saying it’s just anxiety being disguised as excitement. But nevertheless still coming from you, because if it is anxiety, then at that moment that’s still your truth.
Participant: And then how would you — what are tips to get out of that frequency of anxiety?
Bashar: Have you been paying attention? You’re asking this as if it hasn’t been addressed. Do you remember what we said about finding the definition that generates that anxiety? There’s no such thing as an emotion that exists in a vacuum. You cannot have a feeling at all ever until you have a definition first. So if you have a feeling like anxiety, that gives you the opportunity to ask the following question: what would I have to believe is true about myself in order for that belief to generate this emotion? Because emotions always generate from beliefs, not the other way around.
So if you’re willing to hear the answer in some way, it’ll come. But you have to understand that’s how it works. First you have a definition that you buy into that you believe is true, then it generates the emotions, then it generates the thoughts, then it generates the behaviors. So any behavior you don’t prefer, any thought you don’t prefer, any emotion you don’t prefer, you can always ask the question: what would I have to believe is true about myself in this situation in order to generate this feeling, these thoughts, this behavior? If you’re willing to hear the answer, the answer will in some way, shape or form come. It’s that simple — if you understand how it works, it’s that simple.
Now, as we have often said, there is another way to ask the question that takes advantage of the fact that so many of you are so used to dealing with fear. Therefore you can use fear to your advantage in the following way: you can reverse the question and say, all right, if I did in fact allow myself to act on what I believe to be at this moment my highest excitement, what am I afraid might happen? Sometimes that will give you a stronger answer than the other question, because you’re so used to dealing with fear, so used to being afraid, you’ll say, “Oh, what am I afraid of? Well, that’s easy — I’m afraid this will happen, or I’m afraid that’ll happen, or I’m afraid someone won’t love me anymore, or they’ll persecute me, or they’ll think I’m crazy.” All of those things start coming out, and then you start realizing what I actually believe — those things to be true. And then it starts becoming nonsensical, it starts making no sense, it starts becoming illogical. And as soon as you truly allow that negative belief that’s out of alignment with you to appear nonsensical, you’re at the end of the process of letting it go.
Dialogue 9: Channeling and Hybrid Program
Participant: I’ve been doing my own vocal channeling. It’s very exciting. And I’m stepping out of the shadows, stepping from the shadows more into the excitement of it.
Bashar: Oh, well thank you.
Participant: I’ve been going through feeling into wanting — in a sense to fact-check with you guys.
Bashar: Fact-check? Yes.
Participant: I’m aware of the fact that there may be a part of me that is looking for validation that what I am experiencing is actually in alignment.
Bashar: All you have to do is ask yourself: is what’s coming through you supportive, encouraging, expanding, connected, positive — as opposed to the opposite? Absolutely. And if it is, then that’s your answer. You’re doing fine. Keep doing it, if that’s the case. If it’s not controlling, negative, fear-inducing — do you understand?
Participant: There is a resistance though that I feel in the body.
Bashar: Well, what do you think is happening there?
Participant: I’m moving the energy through in different ways.
Bashar: And you may simply not be used to that yet. You need to stretch a little bit, perhaps by continuing to practice.
Participant: There is also a sense of responsibility that I feel in a way that is a bit…
Bashar: But that’s just a belief. Responsibility is simply the ability to respond.
Participant: I want to lead everyone through the Hokey Pokey.
Bashar: Do you know the Hokey Pokey?
Participant: We understand the reference.
Participant: I’ve been connecting to experiences that I may classify in my mind as my lab, and I think there are many of us that have chosen to participate in what we would understand as the hybrid program, as well as having connections and experience with beings like you in different modalities. Many of us have chosen to partake in these different lines of experience that can be quite intense sometimes. I’m really learning that we can truly remember our experiences in the now and remember remembering, creating that past. So I’m just wondering your perspective a bit of those programs.
Bashar: What we’re both pulling from — all the souls involved, the higher selves involved — what we can bring forward, your perspective of best is to some of us that are beginning to integrate those. Anything that’s coming through in regards to those specific…
Participant: With regard to the hybrid program, there are overlaps, which we will be discussing in the future transmission: “The Five Hybrid Races.”
Bashar: Oh, a nice commercial. Cool. Awesome.
Participant: I just want to really give credence and appreciation and awareness and respect to the emotional body, and how we and you are able to bring more information surrounding that at this time. It’s human and it’s very important, and how you expressed what you expressed today about fear is essential.
Dialogue 10: Moses, Extraterrestrials, and the Tablets
Participant: I have a question about some history in the Bible. I was wondering if Moses actually went up on Mount Sinai and got these two tablets, and where they came from.
Bashar: He was given knowledge. It was an extraterrestrial encounter. The knowledge was inscribed in what you might call tablets — but not exactly of stone.
Participant: What were they made of, and where are they now?
Bashar: They were a kind of crystalline formation, a kind of crystalline nanomaterial with information that was downloadable upon touching the surface with your hand. There were some inscriptions in it, but only in the most general sense of “here’s this category, this category, this category” — touch here, you will get that knowledge; touch here, you will get that knowledge.
Now, what has been translated in your language as the so-called Ten Commandments were not commandments. That’s a misinterpretation. They were simply ten expressions of existence. In other words, to give you an example: what translated as “I am the Lord your God, you shall not have false gods before me” as a commandment actually was “I am all that is. Anything else you can imagine is still me. So there can be no false gods.” That’s the difference.
Participant: Where are they now?
Bashar: Wouldn’t you like to know? We’re actually not allowed to tell you. However, we are allowed to give you a hint, if we may.
Participant: I would love a hint.
Bashar: All right. What is the most famous story about someone solving a riddle that you have in your culture?
Participant: Nope. Louder? Something the Sphinx.
Bashar: What a surprise. See what you can find. Solve the riddle. We’re only allowed to tell you so much. We cannot intervene in this process, but they do exist. They can be found in or perhaps out of time.
Participant: This extraterrestrial presence that gave us these tablets — are they also responsible for the Jews being in the desert for 40 years and the parting of the sea?
Bashar: Yes. They are a branch of what you have come to understand as the Anunnaki, but not the original ones.
Participant: Do you know why they chose to give it to the Jews?
Bashar: I do.
Participant: Can you tell us?
Bashar: Why? Not my job to tell you. Someone else will tell you in time — or out of it. It may. We are being told it may, to some degree, be allowed once again in the upcoming transmission “The Five Hybrid Races,” which actually — we are also being told we are allowed to say — may actually be not only about the five, but the sixth that you’re becoming, and the seventh that we will all become together. So it may extend a little further than you think, and it may cover more ground than you think, and may turn in more directions than you think, from the title that has been given. We do not mean to be mysterious, but yes, we do. For that is all we can say at this moment, based on the timing of the dispensation and dispersal and dissemination of this information. You are on the cusp, but not quite there yet. But more will be revealed as these dialogues continue.
Participant: I’m curious about Mars. Was there any life there?
Bashar: Is there life there? Yes. And yes, primitive still at this point. A civilization long ago that needed to move because of an asteroidal strike that ripped off about half of their atmosphere and became uninhabitable by the life form that was there. But there are still what you would call bacteriological, fungal-like life forms. Not to say that the planet isn’t visited by different civilizations from time to time for a variety of reasons, not to say that there aren’t bases there for ships. But in terms of the indigenous life that left long ago and started to go inward and incarnate upon the Earth in terms of their spirits — therefore the trail began in your solar system with the body that was between Mars and Jupiter that is now the asteroid belt in your system, that was once called Maldek. And when that became uninhabitable, the life moved to Mars and flourished there for quite some time. And when that became uninhabitable, life incarnated on your Earth, which is still habitable — moving inward and inward and inward toward the sun, toward the light, going from the outer darkness to the inner light.
Participant: Can you tell us a little bit about what the civilization was like when they were living on Mars?
Bashar: Another time. That’s a whole other story.
Participant: Do you know if I have any hybrid children?
Bashar: I do.
Participant: How many?
Bashar: That I will not answer.
Participant: Any names?
Bashar: That I will not answer.
Participant: Can you give me any information about that?
Bashar: Go to sleep and dream of them, and they will communicate with you.
Dialogue 11: Mothman, Chupacabra, and Nature Spirits
Participant: I have a question about two mysterious creatures: the Mothman and the Chupacabra.
Bashar: Chupacabra, as you call it, is a relatively rare and little-known species that exists on your planet. It is uncommon to run across it, but it is kind of a cross between what you would call a canine and something else a long time ago that was hybridized with it, that no longer exists on your planet in its original form — it’s extinct. So it is a rare offshoot of a hybridization, a melding that took place long ago, and it’s the last remnants of that particular creature on your planet.
Mothman is a very different idea. As you express it, it is a being — an interdimensional being — that like a moth is drawn to a certain type of light. The light being the light you experience or have described as experiencing upon the passage in death. Therefore it is always attracted to things that have to do with imminent death, passage of death in that sense. It can be a warning or harbinger of death to come, or it can simply be that being which is attracted to the light that occurs in the transition between one reality and another — like energy being given off in the passage.
Participant: In the distant future, will we be working more with nature spirits?
Bashar: Absolutely. As has already been described, you will find that after the time of the arrival of the hybrids on your planet and when they are more fully integrated into your society and you into theirs, the idea of interacting with nature spirits will be a relatively common thing, because you will all have the abilities to do so, based on the abilities of the hybrids to perceive them and guide humans to them and allow the spirits to manifest before you in more physical ways. There will be an activity and a process involved in this, but by the time — as we have explained already, or as also has Willa Hildegard explained to you already, being 700 years in your future — interacting with nature spirits is a daily occurrence for her and the people of that time.
Participant: Any living dinosaurs? The Loch Ness Monster — is that a real thing?
Bashar: Well, of course you understand that dinosaurs exist as birds. Yes. And in fact, many of your scientists, to be a little bit more accurate, are not really referring to them as birds anymore — they’re referring to them as avian dinosaurs. Are there any originals living? Very rare, but a few in certain isolated places, yes, where the conditions have lasted long enough for them to perpetuate. But this is exceedingly uncommon.
The idea that you are describing as Loch Ness is a slightly different idea. There are certain kinds of portals around your planet that are gateways between one reality and another, and sometimes beings from other times and places will come through them. And therefore why you may not be able to easily find them, because they may vanish back through the portal. So it’s kind of like your world is very leaky.
Dialogue 12: Ancestral Healing and Changing the Past
Participant: I’m African-American, and I’ve been exploring ancestral healing, multigenerational trauma, and making a lot of great steps. What’s coming to me is this idea that the more oppression, the more pain that someone goes through, the more opportunity that person has for bringing light into the world. It’s the rubber band analogy. So what occurred to me was that people who have been oppressed systematically for generations have a really great opportunity to bring light into the world, which a lot of them are beginning to do.
So for African-American people, the idea of the past being holographic — the idea of changing the past to align with a specific future that is bright, that has lots of light and love in it — means changing the present. Basically it’s changing how we relate to the past. Would it be helpful to actually create new stories of what happened in the past?
Bashar: In a sense, yes, you can do that. The idea also is to understand that every time you change yourself, you do in fact literally change your past.
Participant: I’ve been feeling into the past and learning about the stories, and then I haven’t been changing the stories because I don’t think my belief system can support that — but I’ve been changing my perspective.
Bashar: Why not? Why not? Because you don’t have to insist that they’re true for them to have the effect that they are. That’s why you all tell so many stories anyway. You go to movies and read books, and you know that they might be works of fiction, but many of them feel emotionally true, don’t they?
Participant: Yeah.
Bashar: That’s sufficient. So you can use stories to paint a picture that elicits certain emotions within people you’re talking to. The reason, as we have said several times, that that’s so powerful is because story structure is innately built into your psyche. Story structure is not something you invented — story structure is something you discovered. And so when you tell a story and use story structure, it’s like you’re plucking the right chords in your psyche to remember that information more efficiently and take it in and absorb it more deeply. Story structure allows you to transmit information more efficiently. That’s why stories stick and so many stories have been around for so long — because they follow story structure, and people never forget them. If you miss certain beats in the story structure, the story doesn’t feel as authentic. It doesn’t have to be true to feel authentic.
Participant: Thank you.
Dialogue 13: Sun Simulator and Karma
Participant: There is some information on the internet that there is a sun simulator going on on Earth. Could you tell something about that?
Bashar: Can you repeat that phrase? It did not translate.
Participant: A sun simulator — not our real sun. They say that it’s like a big light that is pretending to be the sun, so to speak.
Bashar: Thank you. That’s the best answer. I’ll give you this: the sun is real, okay? And is really there, because it’s a star like a lot of other stars, and it’s really there, and you’re really orbiting it. However, at the same time, since you now are beginning to understand that physical reality is a simulation, I suppose you could say the sun is a simulation too — but then so is everything in physical reality. It’s a simulation that you’re projecting from your consciousness. So is it really there? Yes. Is it a simulation? Yes. It’s this and that, not this or that. Does that help you?
Participant: Yes.
Bashar: But in the way that you meant it, yes, it’s really there. It’s not a simulated sun in that context.
Participant: I was thinking about karma when you were explaining about the history that is really like imprint in our psyche. So karma would function the same.
Bashar: Karma is self-imposed. Karma is just an understanding that you may have made choices that allow you to experience yourself as being out of balance, and in recognizing that that may not be what you prefer, then taking actions in the direction of choosing things that would bring you back into balance. That’s karma. That’s all it is.
Participant: Like a memory?
Bashar: Well, in a sense, although memory is created in the present. So if we live simultaneous lives, it’s not right to say that we have karma that comes to another life. That is incorrect.
Participant: So we don’t have anything to pay like no.
Bashar: Just attention to yourself. Pay attention to yourself, and choose what you prefer. And if you choose something you don’t prefer, learn from it. Make choices that are more in alignment with what you do prefer and who you prefer to be, and that will be the proper use of the so-called term karma. That’s all. It really just has to do with responsibility again.
Dialogue 14: Dream of Angels and Tall Whites
Participant: I had a dream many years ago. I was very scared because I was thinking that there were some ghosts in the house, and I was praying.
Bashar: What did you imagine praying would do?
Participant: Make the ghosts go away, perhaps.
Bashar: How do you know that praying wouldn’t make them come closer?
Participant: I was not sure. But then there was this big light, and I saw three angels — big angels, tall angels — and I was not dreaming. And the interesting thing is that the angels had eyes like they were extraterrestrials.
Bashar: Well, that’s because they were. They weren’t angels. That was a projection from them to put you a little bit more at ease, because they gave you something that you were somewhat familiar with. So you had an encounter with the Tall Whites.
Participant: I recently had a dream that I had a hybrid child, but it had blue skin.
Bashar: Well, that’s a mixture of images because it’s representative of going back to the Anunnaki bloodlines, because the Anunnaki were slightly tinted blue. That’s where the lineage “blue blood” comes from. So you’re looking at a hybridization, but you’re also seeing multiple levels of it that stretch all the way back to the Anunnaki genetically. That’s why it appeared to be a blue child.
Dialogue 15: Negative Beliefs and Illness
Bashar (to Nania): This comes from Ustream. What is your response to the statement “I don’t believe in negative beliefs”?
That’s a negative belief, because you’re saying “I don’t believe in negative beliefs.” Therefore it’s a negative belief statement. A little bit paradoxical, isn’t it?
Next question: Is there any relation between a negative belief and a specific symptom or illness?
Yes, there can be absolutely. On an extremely simplistic level of illustration, you could say that someone that truly, truly believes that they are not worthy of living could in fact allow themselves to contract a disease that will wither them away and let them die. It can be that simple. There is usually a little bit more complexity to it than that, a few different kinds of ideas and issues mixed in, but that’s a simple illustration.
Regarding genetic issues along family lines — again, it depends on why that might have been chosen. It can be about the person simply saying, “I want to choose a life that has an automatic switch that will shut off at a certain time. I’ll do that genetically.” That’s just one of the easiest things to do: “I’ll pick a family line that I know that that’s likely to happen in.” And it can also be for a variety of other reasons: “I will choose this because what I will bring into this life by having this particular genetic condition will be of great value, not only for me to learn certain things, but of great value for the family that I’m born into to learn certain things that we’ve agreed I will help teach them.”
You have to take it on a case-by-case basis. That’s actually a really beautiful part of the idea — that sometimes people take on illnesses for the benefit of the other people in their lives. It may not be completely apparent. It takes everyone on a specific journey.
The idea that any time you see someone that’s ill, that must mean there’s something wrong with them — no, not necessarily. Remember, not all limitations are inherently negative. So it’s always better to approach any person’s illness with the idea that you don’t really know what the purpose of it is. And you can also ask the question, if you’ve been experiencing that for a while, “What might I not have had a chance to experience? How different might I have been had I not had this experience with that person or with myself?” That will usually illuminate to some degree the reason for that experience, because you start to realize, “I may not have learned this or that or gone in that direction had that not occurred.”
Participant: So how can one possibly accept or define the negative — that which we absolutely do not prefer — as equally valid as the positive, and at the same time not condone it?
Bashar: The idea again, first and foremost, is to understand — just like we said — not all limitations are negative, not all negativity is negative. In other words, there might be things that are created through the mechanism of negativity. Remember that when we say positive and negative, these are not value judgments. These are just descriptions of a mechanism and an energy. Positive is that which connects, integrates, expands. Negative is simply that which disconnects and in a sense diminishes, shrinks, isolates. These concepts in and of themselves are not automatically one thing or another — they’re neutral components of these ideas. Therefore, again, you can even use a negative mechanism to create a positive effect, just as you do impose certain limitations on yourself to create the experience of physical reality, and without those limitations, without those borders, without those definitions, without those guidelines, without those agreements, you would not be able to have that experience. So in a sense, imposing limitations of that type on yourself is a negative act because you are creating a sensation to some degree of disconnection from the greater self — but you’re using it for a positive purpose.
It’s important to understand that what we’re describing when we say positive and negative are not themselves inherently totally positive or negative either. That’s why it’s so important to understand, going back to the first question, that as you expand your consciousness, you have to become more aware of existence. And as you become more aware of existence, you automatically become more aware of the positive and the negative, and of course the balance point in the center being that existence is not a duality — it’s a trinity. And therefore, in becoming more aware of the negative as well as the positive, you’re just becoming more aware of more probabilities, and it’s up to you to decide how to use them. Because you can use a positive idea in a negative way, you can use a negative idea in a positive way. And that’s why you have the symbol called the yin-yang, where you have black on one side with a little bit of white and white on the other side with a little bit of black, showing you that no matter how much you might be on one side or the other, there is always the opportunity to recognize that a little bit of the opposite exists in each. So you can never become unaware of one side if you’re actually expanding your consciousness. The only way you can become aware consciously of one side is to actually be negative and diminish your ability to perceive existence.
So when someone says “I don’t believe in negative beliefs,” they’re actually diminishing their ability to experience part of creation, which gives them more choices — because it’s not automatic that you have to use a negative mechanism in a negative way.
Dialogue 16: Cats and Their Perceptions
Participant: I wanted to ask about cats — what they perceive and what they see.
Bashar: They can peer into other dimensions. They will often see things that are invisible to you. And by learning to communicate with them, by learning to vibrate on their level, you can perhaps also be guided by cats to see those things too, to peer into other dimensions.
Participant: Could you talk about what they do when they purr?
Bashar: It can be for a number of different reasons. As many of you know, it can be from a satisfactory or content space. It can also be communication on a variety of levels. Sometimes it can also be that they might be attempting to repair themselves from an illness or an injury — they may use it to vibrate themselves back into the proper state. It also has the effect on humans of many different things, such as reducing your heart rate, reducing your blood pressure. So it is primarily the idea of putting one in a state by matching that frequency that will be a beneficial state, bringing one back to zero or square one, so to speak. So they are good little reset buttons.
Participant: Are there any forms of higher selves of cats? What do they look like — the oversouls of cats?
Bashar: They can take other forms. There are some that will relate very strongly to certain higher forms that you experience as cats, that are not necessarily experienced exactly in the same way that you experience cats on your planet because they are a different form, but may contain or represent similar energy. There are different civilizations that may relate to those beings in a variety of ways, but the point is that you don’t actually know those civilizations.
Dialogue 17: Killing Time and Acting on Excitement
Participant: I find myself killing lots of time — wasting a lot of time.
Bashar: Have you been arrested yet? There was a double joke in there, because to be arrested means to stop time.
Participant: I want to be productive about my time. I want to make my time valuable.
Bashar: Well, it is as valuable as you make it. But the real question is, you seem to be saying that you’re not necessarily acting on your highest excitement every moment that you could be. Why not? Because if you’re acting on your highest excitement, you’re activating the organizing principle of synchronicity, which allows you the correct amount of time to do whatever it is that excites you — no more and no less. So if you want to fill the time appropriately, act on your highest passion to the best you can every moment that you can, with no insistence on the outcome, and time will regulate itself, organize itself through synchronicity to be exactly what it needs to be, no more, no less.
Participant: I have a challenge. I do not understand the emotions of excitement.
Bashar: You haven’t played enough with the feeling of excitement to know what is exciting for you? When we talk about the idea of excitement, we’re just using a convenient word in your language. Excitement doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re jumping up and down with your hair on fire. Excitement can simply be representative of the passion to be peaceful and quiet and calm sometimes. So we’re not necessarily saying you have to recognize it in the typical way most people will use it. But the idea is that whatever it is you’re attracted to, whatever it is that tugs you, whatever it is that feels correct for you — that’s still representative of your passion.
So at any given moment, out of all the options available to you at that moment, all you have to do is pick the one that’s even just the tiniest bit more attractive to you than any other option, and act on that first. For example, we will assume that you’re here in this dialogue today because it excited you to be here. Correct? Well, that wasn’t so difficult, was it?
Participant: I think I have attachment towards the outcome.
Bashar: Very good. Do you understand that this is exactly the opposite of what many people on your planet have been taught to think? What you need to understand is that having an attachment to the outcome is actually a limitation. Many people on your planet think, “Oh, well I am attaching to this outcome because I know that that’s the best possible outcome.” And what I’ve already told you is that you know nothing of the sort. You have to first admit you don’t know what the best outcome would be. You have to get into a space where you realize that’s true — you have no idea what the best outcome might actually be. You may think you do, but you don’t. Therefore, putting an attachment on a particular outcome is actually potentially limiting you from experiencing something much better than you were capable of imagining.
So when you understand that attachment to the outcome is actually a limitation, and you don’t prefer to be limited that way, you will stop being attached to the outcome because it will no longer make any sense to do that. If you don’t prefer to be limited by it and would rather have something manifest that’s actually better than you thought — that’s all it takes, that understanding. It’s a limitation.
Participant: Is it going to take me some time to really get that?
Bashar: Do you wish it to take some time, or do you want to understand that you understand it now?
Participant: I do understand it.
Bashar: But will you act like you understand it? Because remember, you can again have an intellectual comprehension of the concept, but if it’s not in your behavior, you don’t get it yet. If I ask you to take three steps forward, can you do that?
Participant: Yes.
Bashar: Do that right now. No time like the present. Did you do it? Take three steps back to where you were. Did you do it? Now, why were you able to do that? You knew you could. Did you sit there and go, “Well, wait a minute, I have an intellectual understanding that I could take three steps forward, I have a belief system that I could take three steps forward, I’m not sure, let me think about that?” You didn’t do any of that. You just did it. Why? Because you knew you could. You’ve done it enough times to know that you can do it. What you know, you do. If you’re not doing it, you don’t know it. You can assume that it’s all because of the many times you did it before, but that’s also not really true because you just know in the moment you can do it, regardless of whether you ever did it before. I’m talking about being in the present — in the present, you just know you can do it. That’s all it takes.
But if it’s not in your behavior, then you really don’t know it. You don’t understand it completely yet. You haven’t made it true for yourself. And you would simply need to ask yourself: what’s the resistance to allowing that to be true? That’s where you need to get in touch with those beliefs that prevent you from allowing that concept — that you know this and can just do this — to be true.
So what stops you from allowing the idea that you know how to do this to be true? If you do in fact allow yourself to move forward in this way as fully as you want, as fully as you need to act on your passion to act on your excitement — are you afraid that something negative might happen if you do?
Participant: I think that I would not know the step that I have to take. I think that I have to know beforehand.
Bashar: And do you understand that knowledge only comes with experience? So how can you know anything about the step until you take it and find out? You’re working it backwards. You need to reverse this. You have to take a step to know anything at all about the next step to take. You will know nothing about any of the steps if you don’t take the first one.
Participant: Is that where faith comes in?
Bashar: It’s not faith, right? It’s understanding how things work. I’m not telling you anything that requires the idea of faith. All you have to do is wrap your mind around the fact that what I’m talking here is physics. It’s just the way reality works. You have to take an action before you understand the consequences of the action or any information that’s connected to it that leads to the next step. If you don’t take the step, you go nowhere. You learn nothing. You learn by doing, not by sitting around thinking about doing it until you think you know enough to do it. The moment you actually do it had nothing at all to do with the amount of time you sat around thinking about doing it. It’s just that you finally got to a point where you were tired of waiting and finally decided to just do it. So until you are tired enough, you won’t do it. But when you get tired of waiting, you’ll do it. Simple as that.
Dialogue 18: Self-Worth and Making Different Choices
Participant: I have a general tendency to leave…
Bashar: Selectively deaf to certain words, because no one has a tendency. You are making a choice. You see, if you say “I have a tendency,” then that means it’s out of my control — there’s nothing I can do to change that. That’s what “I have a tendency” means. But if you say “I am making a choice to do something I don’t prefer,” at least you’re in the driver’s seat, and then you can logically say, “Well, why would I choose to do something I don’t prefer?” Now you have something to work with. If you say, “Well, I have a tendency to do this, I have a habit of doing that, it’s just a pattern, I can’t help it” — you have no control, you have nothing to work with, you have no way of changing that because you cannot change what you don’t own. You’re saying it’s not me. Of course it’s you. You’re making a choice, only because you were taught to make those kinds of choices. You can learn to make different choices. So make different choices. Don’t assume it’s a tendency.
Participant: You hear a lot of these things, but for some reason — for your reasons, yes. If you don’t prefer your reasons, change your reasons. Is that reasonable?
Dialogue 19: First Contact Symbol and Morning Ritual
Participant: I know your energy insignia symbol is the black pyramid with the light blue light behind it on a black background.
Bashar: One of them. It’s one of them.
Participant: While I’ve been meditating lately, I’ve been seeing an insignia that is similar. It’s a black pyramid, the edges of the three-dimensional pyramid are lit up with bright white light, and at the apex tip of the pyramid there’s a beam of light that goes straight out of it, and across that apex is like a very light rainbow. Every time I close my eyes to meditate and while I’m falling asleep, I keep seeing the symbol over and over again. I’m wondering, are you familiar with it?
Bashar: Absolutely.
Participant: Could you give me a hand? It’s the symbol — your interpretation of the symbol that actually represents the First Contact Specialists.
Participant: What do I do with that?
Bashar: I suppose you could get in contact with yourself.
Participant: Oh, that’s wonderful to hear. So that’s what I’ve been practicing.
Bashar: Oh, all right. So keep doing that. Use it however you wish. Things will come to you, you’ll be inspired. But it’s generally a representational symbol of the line of First Contact Specialists. If you want to call it a guild, I suppose you can.
Participant: As a permission slip, I have a little morning ritual I’d like to share with everyone. What I do is I fill a glass of water — I place it on a piece of paper where I’ve written gratitude, prayer giving thanks for love and abundance and wealth, and I put three crystals around the paper, and I put my hands around the glass, and I drink it. As I sip it, I’m giving thanks for the water. Could you tell us what is happening in that process?
Bashar: You are with your permission slip allowing yourself to alter the vibratory matrix of the water in a way that’s more aligned with the vibration you wish to match in life, so that it acts in a sense as a booster shot.
Participant: I have a riddle for you. How many eggs can you put in a one-foot square, one-foot deep empty basket?
Bashar: None.
Participant: Incorrect.
Bashar: One? Because after you put one in, it’s not an empty basket anymore.
Participant: I get it.
Bashar: There is purpose in giving you this riddle. Think about how to look at things from a new point of view, and you will always find the solution. As you say often, think outside the box. But in fact, what we’re telling you is there is no box.
Dialogue 20: The Definition of Love
Participant: I was wondering what is your definition of love, and how you live what you call love.
Bashar: By the way, that sounded suspiciously like a question. What we say in a sense is: unconditional love is the vibratory frequency of existence itself, and love is your translation of that frequency in physical terms. It’s the signature frequency of existence itself. So it is much more than emotional feeling — your emotional feeling is your translation and interpretation of that frequency in your reality.
Participant: So there are different frequencies of love?
Bashar: Yes. Different reflections of all that is.
Participant: You said before that you are in a state of pure synchronism. In that state, the vibration of love is manifest in everything you do.
Bashar: Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Participant: I want to go there.
Bashar: We’re not stopping you. And many of you do visit us in your dream time. But you can come to our world if you understand how to make the dimensional shift into our reality. It can be done.
Participant: Sometimes I work with Reiki and with energy, and a lot of our work is based on the chakra system.
Bashar: Permission slips. All tools, all techniques, all rituals, all objects are permission slips. What you attract with your belief system that says “I can use this to give myself permission to circumvent my present belief system and become more of who I am” — but you’re the one doing it. And the bottom line is that level of pure synchronicity that is life itself.
Dialogue 21: Passion and Purpose
Participant: Is there an optimal state of belief systems to have?
Bashar: The ones that are relevant for you to be who you truly are — whatever they may be. Remember that even when you divest yourself of all negative belief systems, you will still continue to divest yourself of any belief systems that are no longer relevant for who you need to be at that moment. They don’t have to be negative to let them go — they can be positive, they just simply no longer serve you in who you are becoming.
Participant: As we become what could we look forward to?
Bashar: Pure synchronicity.
Participant: Is that the purpose of experiencing life?
Bashar: Experience is the purpose. To know yourself more and more and more. It’s infinite. It’ll never end. It never began. It just is. So know yourself in all the ways that you prefer to, and keep doing that because it’s more experience. It’s fun.
Participant: It’s just stretching the mind — how far can we think?
Bashar: There are some things you simply won’t know on this level because you don’t need to. But when you go to different levels, you will know whatever is relevant for that level. The question really is: why would you really need to know more than you need to know?
Dialogue 22: Soccer, Passion, and Goals
Participant: I was passionate about playing soccer in college, and I didn’t continue to spend more time playing soccer because I wanted to finish my studies and get a good job, which I was also passionate about.
Bashar: Why? Why stop? What’s the reason that you changed? Was it really representative of your passion, or was it representative of a fear that something bad would happen if you didn’t?
Participant: It was based on a belief that I needed a good earning job.
Bashar: So what you’re saying is you didn’t believe that your passion could support you. Well, there you go. You see, you’re not acting on your passion. That’s a perfect example of refusing to believe that your passion can support you because you don’t have a complete definition of passion. Therefore you didn’t understand that if you actually allow yourself to continue acting on your passion, that in some way, shape or form, it has to by definition support you — unless you have beliefs that it can’t. That’s the only thing that stops passion from supporting any of you — is you have a belief that it’s not possible for it to do so. Otherwise you would see that it is capable of doing so. So you stopped yourself from acting on your passion with your belief system.
Participant: But in retrospect, I’m happy with my decision at the time because I’m happy with where I am.
Bashar: But you made the decision negatively, out of fear. You don’t know that you wouldn’t have wound up here anyway. The point is, if you’re going to wind up where you have wound up, why not get there through joy rather than short-changing yourself? So what you’re saying is that every action should come from a space of joy.
Participant: Yes.
Bashar: Because that’s your true self, and that will give you more options as to where that will lead you. You will always go where you need to go. And if you actually truly, truly needed to wind up where you say you’re happy, your passion would have brought you here anyway. You didn’t have to make decisions that were the antithesis of your passion to wind up in a place where you’re happy. So why not allow the journey to be just as enjoyable?
Participant: I have a sense of responsibility.
Bashar: Then you’re misunderstanding. Your responsibility might be focusing on following your bliss and your passion. That is your true responsibility. And again, response-ability — your ability to respond to your true vibration. That’s what contains everything you need. It will bring you everything you need. You just have to know that’s how it works. That’s all. You don’t have to second-guess yourself. You don’t have to take detours.
Participant: What do you have to say about setting goals?
Bashar: It’s all well and good to have what you call a goal, a visualization, an image that represents what you consider to be an ideal outcome. But when the picture — when the goal gets you excited about the visualization, about the picture — that’s exactly the time to completely and utterly drop it. Because again, its purpose is to get you in the state of being that will actually attract what you need. Because you don’t know that the goal you’ve set or the picture you’re visualizing is actually the best possible outcome. You don’t know that. But your higher mind does know what you need, and it will always bring you whatever actually will serve you best, even if it looks nothing like your physical mind thought it ought to — which is very often the case.
Dialogue 23: Right and Wrong, and the Mind-Heart Connection
Participant: Is there such a thing as right and wrong?
Bashar: As we said, there is positive energy, negative energy. The idea of the value judgment you’re calling right and wrong is simply: are you going with the flow and in alignment with existence, or are you resisting and going against the grain? That’s all it is.
Remember that you are an eternal, infinite spirit — something that you don’t necessarily learn in this particular physical existence. You’ll get it at some point. There’s no hurry, there’s no rush.
When you understand that making negative choices doesn’t actually serve what you’re looking for, people will stop choosing them. People that in your estimation, in your language, are doing wrong things are themselves devoid of any understanding of how to align and connect with their source of power. They have not been taught how powerful they are, so they can only imagine that the way to feel powerful — because what they’re feeling is an emptiness, trying to fill that emptiness — the only way they can imagine feeling that go away and fill that void is to look outside themselves and try to control things outside, control people, force people to do this, force people to do that, bend people to their will, dominate. That’s because they don’t understand what true power is or where it actually comes from — within. If they are taught how things work, they will not have to choose things that are misaligned with their true vibration. And then there will no longer be the issues of right and wrong. There will simply be the understanding: when I choose something that’s out of alignment, I’m damaging myself — even though I might be calling it something that I think gives me power, when in fact all I’m doing is expressing my belief that I am disempowered.
Participant: What is your take on the mind and the heart?
Bashar: The higher mind, head mind, heart mind work together in certain ways. The higher mind gives off a vibration of guidance to the true vibration of yourself. The heart kind of like a drum beats and reflects the vibration of the higher mind, but that reflection goes to the head mind, the physical personality, that then based on whatever belief systems it contains and whether it is in balance or out of balance, filters that energy and feeds that energy, reflects that energy back to the heart.
Now if the head mind is in alignment, in balance, then the vibration going back to the heart will be relatively similar to the original vibration of the higher mind, and everything will be in sync, everything will be in harmony, everything will be aligned. But if those belief systems filter that energy in a negative way, in an out-of-balance way, in a misaligned way, then the head mind sends back to the heart that misalignment, and the heart skips a beat.
So the idea is — boom, boom — but many people on your planet are boom, and the heart is not getting the energy it needs in the way that it needs to understand it to create a reality that is reflective of the guidance from the higher mind.
Dialogue 24: Positive Utopian Vision and Harry Potter
Participant: My cousin has a concept called a positive utopian vision show, where individuals can bring their passion, their enthusiasm, their joy for life to create their visions of a new reality. It’s sort of mutually not competitive but in a way builds on itself towards a crescendo where one common vision in the end is sort of manifested and focused on. I’m wondering what you and the realm that you represent feel about that.
Bashar: So guess how we feel about it? There’s any advice you can suggest in how to bring that into the world? Follow his passion with no insistence on the outcome. You’ve already heard the formula. The formula is no different for any situation or circumstance. Act on the passion to the best you’re able, with no insistence or assumption as to what the outcome ought to look like, and it will take you where you need to go.
Participant: I’m working on a vision to bring vibrations that people select into water, and bring that into like a water crock at home. I feel the immense responsibility of in a positive way being able to keep that intention.
Bashar: Then again, do what you can. Remember, there is no insistence that anyone has to participate other than you. But when you allow that state of being — that neutral state of being to be there and just act on your excitement for its own sake, not what you think it has to do — then you will find automatically it will attract others who also wish to participate in something that they relate to. So you don’t have to worry about that. It’s just about doing it, being the example of it, and allowing people to find you by following that vibrational trail.
Participant: I feel very passionate about it.
Bashar: Then you have your answer. Otherwise you would probably be passionate about something else. Because there are no accidents. Timing is timing. So if you’re passionate about it now, in some way shape or form, then that must indicate that its time has come — or you wouldn’t be passionate about it. Again, its time has come doesn’t necessarily translate as “I must see certain things happen in order for me to know that its time has come.” If you are excited about it, its time has come. Period.
Participant: What do you think of Harry Potter?
Bashar: You create in your reality stories and symbols that inspire you to reach higher, to reach deeper, to reach farther. And again, in this case it’s represented by the idea that you are all truly magical beings. That’s more of a representation of your true self in a sense, because you are creating this physical experience through a type of magic, if you want to call it that — because it isn’t really real. Your experience of it is, but it doesn’t exist by itself without you. It’s part of you, it’s an expression of you, it’s a reflection of you. It’s truly something you have conjured.
So it’s a good symbol for getting in touch with the idea that you are creating, you are manifesting your own reality just out of consciousness. You are casting spells. That’s where “spelling” comes from as a word. Your words, your language, are vibrations. They are spells that reinforce the idea of this so-called physical reality as if it were real. You’re casting spells.
That series of books and movies, in some sense, is a more realistic representation of what reality is. Yet many of you, because of the way you’ve been brought up, the way you’ve been taught, and the belief systems you hold on to, have chosen to use your analogy to be Muggles instead of wizards.
Dialogue 25: Breatharian Lifestyle and Synchronicity
Participant: Could you scan my energy from two hours ago and let me know if I’m vibrationally ready to adopt a breatharian lifestyle, where I’m nourished more by energy than by food?
Bashar: No.
Participant: Thank you. I didn’t think so. The hunger wasn’t the issue, it’s the emotional journey that I had during which I see as the problem.
Bashar: Do you see what’s the emotional journey that’s a problem?
Participant: Where I felt anxiety that I couldn’t do this or I shouldn’t do this. I was doing a water fast. The first two days I felt dizzy and felt I should stop, but after the third and fourth day everything returned back to normal and I felt I could keep going.
Bashar: It sometimes takes a while for your body to adjust to something like that.
Participant: Is there anything that I should do that you would recommend?
Bashar: May I ask you a question? Why do you believe you need to do this?
Participant: Along with following my passion, it gives me more time to pursue my passion — creating art, creating music, creating dance.
Bashar: So you believe that taking time to eat prevents you from expressing your art?
Participant: It does, especially for computer graphics. When I’m creating on the computer, it’s like I’m in my zone, so I don’t like to be interrupted. Eight hours doesn’t feel like eight hours — it can feel like an hour.
Bashar: We understand. But then at the end of that eight hours that feels like an hour — which by the way means you’ve only aged an hour, you understand — does it not seem that timing has arrived for you to do something else or nourish yourself or what have you?
Participant: Sometimes I forget about needing to eat.
Bashar: Do you feel like you actually need to eat at those moments?
Participant: No.
Bashar: All right, well then don’t. Are there times that come up that feel like you need to eat?
Participant: Sure.
Bashar: Well then eat at those times. Is this really that complicated? It’s following your natural biological cycle. That’s all. Act on your passion. Let the organizing principle of synchronicity continue to inform you of what you need to do next. So that when you are tired, you will be sleepy and go to sleep. When you are hungry, you will eat. If you’re not hungry, don’t eat. If you’re not sleepy, don’t sleep. Follow the natural biological rhythm that synchronicity provides for you, as long as you make sure you’re not forcing yourself to do that through some idea that you’re supposed to, or some idea that you’re missing out on something, or that it’s an interruption in your flow of creativity. Just let synchronicity show you when those things will actually be beneficial to allow you to continue your flow of creativity instead of looking at them as an interruption in it. Then they’ll come in a more natural way.
Dialogue 26: Göbekli Tepe and Parallel Tracks
Participant: I want to ask about Göbekli Tepe. When I was thinking about this question last night, I saw myself at Göbekli Tepe. There was no moon, and I saw a meteor come and strike, and that’s why it’s gone. I don’t know if I made that up because I have a really bizarre imagination.
Bashar: It’s a little bit of a combination of different things. You’re actually consolidating in one small time frame things that happened over larger spans of time. It was a center of learning — or was, in your language, a center for the training of certain ideas, and also a representation of ancient knowledge in symbolic form that was designed to be preserved for later generations, because it was already understood that cyclical cataclysms like cometary impacts, meteoric bombardments do happen on your planet from time to time. And it was an attempt to preserve that knowledge for later generations that would dig it up. It was deliberately buried so as to protect it from the cyclic cataclysms that do happen on your planet from time to time.
Participant: Who deliberately did that?
Bashar: The civilization that was there deliberately buried it. It was a training center up to a certain point that allowed for the reaching out of the consciousness into higher esoteric realms to gather knowledge and information. And one of the pieces of information that they gathered was the existence of these cyclic catastrophes, so they said, “Well, at a certain point coming up, we will need to preserve this, so we will bury it so that future generations will not lose this knowledge.”
Participant: Does that civilization still exist in our current timeline?
Bashar: The people have all been absorbed into other cultures at this point.
Participant: You’ve talked about parallel tracks. It’s not just one or two parallel tracks — there might be seven to nine, or many many more, but you may only experience a finite amount of them that are relevant for your experience at this time. I have hybrid children. In all of the parallel tracks, will they stay with me? If I get off on the wrong track, do I lose them?
Bashar: You can go back to the other track, or at least something similar, if you understand that you have stepped off the track that you prefer to be on.
Participant: Is there a Bashar in different parallel tracks?
Bashar: Absolutely.
Participant: And I am also beside myself many times.
Bashar: So are you. But each of the parallel tracks are going to be almost diametrically opposed where you can’t jump from one to the other at some point. At some point, for certain tracks, and in other tracks that’s not the case.
Participant: A couple years ago you said you couldn’t jump.
Bashar: I was talking about the tracks you were on at the time. So now we have more tracks, so now we can jump again. Because as you expand, you gain more ability to jump farther from track to track.
Participant: Is there different versions of you on the positive track saying different things?
Bashar: Somewhat, whatever is relevant for those tracks.
Dialogue 27: The Allegory of the Monster
(Bashar tells a story)
Once upon a time, there was a land that was terrorized by a frightful monster. It would stomp around and roar a mighty roar, frightening all the inhabitants, making them run to their homes and lock their doors and windows for fear that they would be devoured by the terrifying beast. And this would happen every day.
After days and days and days upon days of this, one little child decided to follow the monster to see where it would go when it left the town, and to find out why the monster was so mean, so terrifying, so frightful — to discover what had made it that way, and perhaps to find a way to stop the monster so that her town, his town, could live in peace and no longer be afraid.
And so one time, after the monster had passed through town, roaring, gnashing its teeth, flashing its eyes, and scaring everyone, and then began to stomp down the trail back through the forest from whence it had come, the child followed the monster quietly, nimbly, hiding behind the trees, until the child saw the monster arrive at a cave in a mountainside, and the monster disappeared within that dark cave.
The child tiptoed cautiously toward the cave, afraid to go into that darkness for fear that the child might be devoured by the monster. But suddenly the child saw deep within the cave a small bright light. And so the child, being very curious, being very brave, decided to venture inside that cave. And as the child snuck further on little cat feet, deeper and deeper into that cave, the child finally came upon the den of the monster.
And in that den, hiding behind a large boulder, the child witnessed the monster. But something was different, something was strange — for the light was coming from inside the monster somehow, peeking out, pouring out through seams in the monster’s scaly skin. And suddenly the child witnessed that the monster was just a costume. And as the monster took the costume off, it was nothing more than a shining sphere of light.
And the child marveled at this, for there was nothing to fear about the light — it was just a beautiful sight, powerful energy, vibrating, humming. And only when it donned the costume of the monster did it become a fearful thing. So the child, no longer afraid, strode up to the shining sphere of light, which was very surprised to see the child there, but also very pleased, for it could see itself reflected in the child’s curious eyes. Because since there was no mirror in the cave, the sphere had not seen itself for a long time, but marveled at its brilliance in the reflection in the child’s eyes, for it finally understood that this is how the child saw it. And the child no longer saw the monster, the suit of which lay crumpled on the cave floor.
And the child spoke and said, “If this is what you truly are underneath that frightful appearance, I now see your true self — for you are just beauty and energy and power and light. And the monster is just something that you’ve wrapped yourself in. Why?”
And the sphere replied, “Because this is what the people in the village expect to see when this much power is presented to them. So I donned the suit to give them what they expect to see.”
“But you are beautiful,” said the child. “Why not let them see that?”
“If only they would,” said the blinding light.
“I believe,” said the child, “that I can convince them to see you in a different light and not as the frightful monster, if you would but just give me a chance to explain to the people of my village what you truly are underneath that frightful costume.”
The sphere relented and followed the child back down the path through the forest to the edge of the village. “Wait here,” said the child. “I will be back.”
And so the child ventured forth back into the village, knocked upon the doors, calling the townspeople into the square, shouting, “Come out, come out! There is nothing to fear, for I have vanquished the monster!”
The townspeople marveled at this — at how a child could have bested such a frightful beast — and they all asked, “How? How were you capable of doing this?”
And the child replied, “For I saw the monster’s true heart. And what you saw as the frightful beast was nothing but a skin, a costume, a reflection of the fear that you have been living with within your hearts for so long. But that is not the true form of that being, for it is a beautiful, bright, shining light. It is power and resonance and harmony, and can be used and can be cloaked in so many other ways.”
And the child asked a member of the village who was very talented and very skilled at creating clothing and costumes to create — to weave — a beautiful form, a beautiful appearance, a costume of unparalleled beauty. And the child took it and brought it back to the sphere at the edge of the forest and said, “Please wear this instead. For you can wear many costumes, for you yourself are simply light and can wrap yourself and cloak yourself in any disguise whatsoever. The town is willing to receive you in this form, is willing to let go of the fear and understand the true nature of your being.”
And the sphere donned the costume, and it was a beautiful being, a radiant being, an angelic being of peace and love and light — for the inner light shone through its eyes, the eyes of the costume, and illuminated the path before them back to the village.
And when all of the people saw the child approaching with this being, they marveled at how such a transformation could take place. But it is not such a mystery, said the child, for the truth is that the light can take many forms, and it only reflected the fear that was already in your hearts. But if you give way to love and give way to peace and give way to joy, and allow these back in your life, then this shall be the reflection that this being shall show you until the end of your days. And the village can once again thrive and be at peace and joy and harmony.
And the villagers did rejoice and did invite in this being, this beautiful being of light and form, and it lifted their hearts to the heavens. And from that day forward, there was peace in the village, and all who chose to live there.
Go within to your inner child and see the truth that lies deep at the core and the heart of fear, for it is nothing but power, energy, and light. And it can take many forms and cloak itself in many guises. And if you just focus not on the fear reflection but upon its inner strength, its inner power, the essence of its form, so too can you invite it to cloak itself in radiant raiment, in beautiful garment that reflects the joy in your hearts that you desire to feel — the peace, harmony, beauty, and love that you seek in your lives.
And forever and ever, the shining light will wear that cloak, for it is only within the hearts of the villagers that give the light its choice to choose the radiant raiment or the fearful visage of the beast. For these are just illusions, these are just cloaks. And at its core is the true being, the being that can take many forms, the being that takes its cue from you.
Open up. Breathe into that new reality and just feel the sensation. Anytime that monster raises its head, gnashes its teeth, stomps its feet, flashes its eyes — remind the inner child that it sees the truth: that at its core is just this vibration of power and light, and that you can offer it the opportunity to transform into another guise, another cloak, another raiment of light, of beauty, of harmony, and of peace, so that you may live in joy in your village forevermore.
Take a deep breath and make this story your story. Take another deep breath and make this path your path. And take another deep breath and make this light your light. Cloak it in the form that you prefer, that you choose to reflect throughout your lives. Be the village of peace, be the village of joy, be the village of love, the village of harmony, the village of infinite possibility — the shape-shifters that choose to know who they truly are and to reflect that in all aspects of your being.
