The Archetypes of God

• Bashar: You have names for God: God, Goddess, Allah, Jehovah, Tetragrammaton, the Light, the I Am That I Am. All of these names represent different archetypal expressions, different angles and different perspectives of the same one thing. All of your apparently separate religions, no matter how they present themselves or what symbols they use, are all talking about the same thing but from different points of view that serve the uniqueness of the culture in which they live.

• Bashar: The idea is to understand that it all comes from Source, that All That Is is within the Light. The Light Source, All That Is, expresses itself in all these ways in order for there to be sufficient symbols for all the different cultural experiences on your planet, and all the different individual experiences even within a culture.

• Bashar: The misinterpretation of what you have called in one particular Judeo-Christian culture “The Ten Commandments” are really messages that were delivered in a very different way and have been misunderstood and misquoted because of the level of understanding that existed in the culture at the time. The so-called first commandment, “I am the Lord your God, thou shalt not have false gods before me,” was a mistranslation. A more accurate representation would be: “I am that I am, and all reflections are me, therefore none can be false before me, for I am all that is.”

• Bashar: The idea is to understand that All That Is presents itself in a variety of archetypal forms: the father energy, the mother energy, God, Goddess, All That Is, as you sometimes say. These serve various functions and translate into your reality as smaller representations of All That Is that are specifically designed to deal with specific cultural differences, specific ideological differences, and specific individual interpretations and differences.

• Bashar: Fundamentally speaking, the archetypes are All That Is’ way of making sure that no matter what angle you approach All That Is from, you will have a symbol and a representation that can serve your unique perspective. They are all true parts of All That Is, because there’s nothing outside of All That Is. Anything you can experience as an archetypal representation, or even the entire representation of All That Is, is true and accurate, because All That Is is everything that can possibly be.

• Bashar: It doesn’t really matter how you relate to or what relationship you form with the idea of any presentation of All That Is. Any idea or formation of the idea of God—be it the old man with the long beard, the idea of the virgin mother, a rock, or a mountain—it matters not to All That Is. All That Is is all those things and more, beyond even your imagining.

• Bashar: All That Is, in its archetypal presentations, also forms the symbols that are relatable not only to your particular human culture but to many cultures throughout the cosmos, throughout Infinity. Anything and everything, being a reflection of All That Is, has its own way of understanding the presentation of archetypes from Source. There are an infinite variety of presentations of All That Is, but it is still the same one thing fundamentally.

• Bashar: As you expand your Consciousness and start to realize that all of these are different faces of the same thing—as many people on your planet have expressed, the 9 billion names of God are still representative of the same one thing—you start to allow those differences to melt away. You allow yourself to have a more direct relationship with Source without necessarily needing it to be anything but the Light. In that Light, you feel the vibration of the Eternal existence that it is, the vibration you translate as the unconditional love of God. This is the vibrational frequency of existence itself; it is unconditionally supporting, unconditionally loving.

• Bashar: There is no judgment in this. There is no expression of the negative in this. Even when individuals in different cultures might express or experience the idea of negative or demonic experiences, you have to understand this is still all part of God, because there is the positive, there is the negative, and there is the neutral. These are the major archetypal energies, and they can be expressed in a variety of ways that can serve either positive or negative means.

• Bashar: Allow yourselves to lessen the differences. Use them in whatever way serves you, in whatever way allows you to learn the lessons you need to learn for the agreements that you chose to experience, the challenges you created for yourself in this life to learn who you are and grow. Ultimately, when you return to Spirit and remember more of who you are, it will just be an experience. You will experience the archetypal expression of your life.

• Bashar: Every single one of you is unique, and you form your own archetypes for others to connect to, to draw upon, to download information from, and to experience from the archetype that you are of All That Is. Because everyone is All That Is experiencing itself as all of the individualities that you believe yourself to be. So you are also an archetype of All That Is, an archetype of God, experiencing itself in a unique way, knowing itself from a unique perspective.

• Bashar: There will be more about this concept in a future transmission, in a way that you can more readily apply in your physical reality experience. For now, just let it settle into you that every single thing you see, every single thing you experience, is in a sense an archetypal presentation of All That Is. The trees, the rocks, the streams, the animals, the sky, the moon, the stars, the Earth itself are all different variations and different expressions of All That Is, of Source, of the Light. And you yourself are also an archetype of God.

Question on Finding Passion During Difficult Times

Attendee (Justin): Hey Bashar, my name is Justin. I’m in beautiful and rainy Salem, Oregon. My question is about what you talk about, finding passion and pleasure all the time. In the middle of the pandemic, building my business and working hard to keep my family afloat during these uncertain times, I feel like a lot of my life has just become work. Even the things I felt passionate about before, I don’t feel as excited about anymore. I’m having a hard time latching onto the concept; I feel like I’m in a weird void of space. Any guidance you can give on helping identify my passion and really focusing on that would be an amazing help. Thank you.

• Bashar: The idea of acting on your passion does not have to be an overarching project or a career. If you feel you have lost your passion or lost your way, refocus simply by looking at everyday events. There are things in your life, simple everyday things: taking a walk, reading a book, speaking with your family, having simple creative ways of exploring things together. As long as they contain more excitement than any other choice, that’s representative of your passion at the moment. Act on it first before any other choice.
• Bashar: If it contains even just a little bit more attractiveness or excitement than any other choice on a simple everyday level, just act on it first, taking it as far as you can until you can take it no further. Then look for the next thing. Always make sure you’re not the one dampening the excitement, but that it wanes naturally, which is the synchronistic indication that you need to look for the next thing that contains even just a little bit more attractiveness, curiosity, excitement, or passion than anything else.
• Bashar: It can be simple. You might feel like the most exciting thing you can do is eat a meal, tell someone a story, or take a walk. Allow yourself to let go of the passion needing to represent itself in any particular grandiose form. Just allow yourself to act on the simple excitements that come with everyday things. That’s how you begin, and then it will snowball.
• Bashar: You have to look for the times and places where you are willing to allow yourself to act on your excitements, to allow your excitement to prove to you over time that it can support you, instead of holding on to things you believe you need for support right now that aren’t exciting to you. You don’t need to let go of the things you believe you need to support you right now if they are not exciting. Don’t let go of those things you’re doing that are not exciting if you believe you need them for support. But over time, give your excitement a chance to prove to you it can also support you by taking whatever time you can take to act on them. The easiest way to do that is by doing the simple things, then let it build and snowball into something bigger.
• Bashar: Let synchronicity provide you with more time in an easy way, before synchronicity responds to your wish for more time in a more challenging way. Many people do a job they are not excited about and keep wishing for more time to do what excites them, and suddenly find themselves getting fired. They could have been practicing their excitement in the time they had, giving the excitement time to prove that it could support them, so they can make an easier transition from what they don’t prefer to what they do prefer, rather than suddenly and abruptly finding themselves adrift. If you refuse to allow your excitement to prove it can support you over a longer period of time on an easier path, you might come up against a moment where everything has to immediately change for you to finally get the point that you really need to start relying on your passion to replace the support you were experiencing by doing something that isn’t who you truly are.

Dialogue on “I Am That I Am”, First Contact, and Vibrational Adjustment

• Attendee: Hi Bashar, good to see you again. You ended the talk about archetypes with “we also are that.” I would say that the “I am that we are” is the primary source of the God essence because it comes from within us. Would you agree?
• Bashar: Yes. And that’s what I said: “I am that I am.” But it doesn’t matter what you call it.
• Attendee: But isn’t that primary for us to understand as humans, as opposed to putting it outside of us?
• Bashar: It is a primary understanding that will allow you to experience yourself in a much broader, greater way. But it’s not absolutely essential if you have decided to experience a theme or a challenge that prevents you from understanding that in a particular life, because that can be a learning experience as well. Nevertheless, whether you learn it or not, it is the primary truth. It exists that way whether you realize it or not. But yes, the realization of it is what allows you to grow and discover yourself from many different points of view.
• Attendee: Let me ask you: these past two years that we’ve been in this transition period, have they been a vibrational adjustment for us to prepare for First Contact?
• Bashar: Partly yes. But again, a vibrational adjustment for you to be able to be more of yourselves, which is preparation for open contact, because only by being more of yourselves will you be prepared for open contact.
• Attendee: What’s been coming out from the government’s side of disclosure, in the latest book “Skinwalker at the Pentagon,” they talk about the paranormal element of the contact experience. They say there’s a negative aspect to these orbs that are appearing. Is there a way to turn that negative aspect around and make it a positive thing that the government is not seeing?
• Bashar: Yes, of course. First and foremost, by understanding that what they’re saying about there being a negative aspect is false. It’s their reflection, their experience of their own fear-based belief system that is allowing them to experience it as a negative aspect. The essence of the phenomenon in and of itself is not presenting itself in a negative way, but it is calling forth from those that experience it, bringing their consciousness into closer contact with their own fear-based beliefs, which allows them to project upon the phenomenon the idea that it is the phenomenon that is negative, instead of facing the fact that it is their own belief system that is negative.
• Attendee: So when we change our beliefs, our relationship to First Contact changes.
• Bashar: Yes, of course.
• Attendee: We are in this incubation process. Is there something we need to do more of in order to activate the consciousness?
• Bashar: Follow your excitement. All that. Why would you think there would be more than that? We have given you the formula and told you that it is a complete kit and leaves nothing relevant out. We give it to you that way so you won’t have to ask, “Is there more?” That’s the full instruction manual. All you have to do is actually act on it precisely and completely, and you will understand how it works. You will understand there doesn’t need to be anything more, unless you decide that you wish to add something to it for the purposes of experiencing your own self-chosen process.
• Attendee: Is there a particular reason you wanted to talk about archetypes today? Is there something more than our expansion of consciousness we need to embrace with that concept?
• Bashar: It’s about understanding yourselves as true reflections of All That Is. The next transmission, titled “Mirror Mirror,” will help drive this home more deeply within you, so you can really start experiencing yourself as an aspect, as a spark of the Light of All That Is.
• Attendee: Are we still on track for First Contact coming in the next 10 or 15 years?
• Bashar: In general, you are still on track. But again, it depends on what you decide to do in the years ahead that will shift you to different versions of Earth that may already be experiencing the idea of open contact.
• Attendee: Thank you, Bashar. Good day.

Dream of ET Contact and Vibrational Compatibility

• Attendee (Sandra): Hello Bashar, this is Sandra from Miami, Florida. I had a dream that I would like your insights on. On September 30th, in the middle of the night, I was awakened by a sensation of being plugged into a current of electricity. My whole body felt like it was vibrating, and I was perceiving the presence of a male ET. I remember being afraid to look up into his face because I was kind of afraid of being afraid. I wanted to know what truly happened in that moment, and if that sensation of electricity or vibration was my own resistance.
• Bashar: The energy was your own energy, and there was some resistance. This is what we’ve described before as the reason why we can’t just land. There may be many extraterrestrial forms that you can interact with relatively easily, but some extraterrestrial forms, including ours, operate on a much different frequency domain than you. We come from a parallel reality that is ten times faster than yours. The idea of being exposed directly to our energy physically would in fact allow all of the different kinds of fear-based belief systems within you to be forced to the surface and can cause the idea of psychic shock.
• Bashar: We give you this information to allow you the process of transforming yourself and raising your frequency in a way that is safe for you to meet our frequency more easily, to become more vibrationally compatible with higher frequency beings so that you can interact with them without resistance and without experiencing the fears you experienced in that encounter. Nevertheless, you were given enough of the difference in energy between you and a higher frequency being to allow you to integrate that energy within yourself, to get used to the idea that you’re experiencing your own energy on a higher level, and therefore raise to that frequency to become more vibrationally compatible with the being that you’re dealing with, which is most likely a counterpart version of you in another reality that’s helping you bootstrap yourself up the frequency ladder.
• Bashar: Have fun with it. Don’t be afraid. But if fear comes up, find the belief system that generates the fear, because remember, you can’t have an emotional experience without believing something to be true first. You’re given an opportunity by experiencing the fear to examine those areas in your consciousness where you would have a belief that would generate the fear you experienced. Remember, you’re fundamentally an indestructible being, so there’s nothing to be afraid of. Nothing can truly annihilate you.

Conversation on Art, Creative Impatience, and Negative Beliefs

• Attendee: Hello Bashar. I’m really excited to be communicating with you right now. We’ve been in conversation for quite some time. Quite some time ago, we connected around the idea of Ana, one of your social engineers, in a discussion of art. I feel like that project, where seeds were planted way back when, is now coming more into bloom. I’m about to transition into having my time to myself to create in a way that I haven’t before.
• Bashar: How exciting.
• Attendee: It’s incredibly exciting. I’ve really been using the formula to work with that and keep my mind open, even as it’s twisted and turned in interesting ways. I’m just curious if there’s any follow-up with Ana around this art project.
• Bashar: Are you having fun doing this?
• Attendee: I assume yes.
• Bashar: Well, what else do you need to know except to keep moving forward and exercise your creative imagination?
• Attendee: I don’t really need to know anything more, but it would be interesting to know more if there was anything specific.
• Bashar: Why do you think that you’re missing something?
• Attendee: I don’t know that I feel like I’m missing something.
• Bashar: But you’re asking, “Is there anything more?” which implies that you think something’s missing.
• Attendee: That’s a good point. I just guess I was curious if there was more to unfold in that particular direction.
• Bashar: Do you feel like you’re not doing enough, that you’re not expressing your art as fully as you possibly could be? Are you holding back your creative imagination in one direction or another?
• Attendee: I think to some extent I was, but I don’t think that’s going to be true going forward because I will have more energy to dedicate to that more specifically.
• Bashar: Is there a particular expression that you’re more excited about than any other that you haven’t begun expressing?
• Attendee: Not exactly. It’s more that I feel that I have to rush when I’m doing it because there were other things.
• Bashar: Why do you not believe in the understanding of synchronicity, perfect timing?
• Attendee: I do, but I still get caught up in…
• Bashar: When a person on your planet says “I do, but…”, that means they don’t.
• Attendee: Fair enough. Can you understand it sometimes and not other times? Yes, of course.
• Bashar: Why don’t you understand it at other times? It’s fine when you understand it and move forward in the way that works for you and is representative of your passion. But we’re talking about the times when you don’t stay in that vibration. What would be the reason for that? Why do you believe you have to rush? What’s your hurry?
• Attendee: I think I’m just transitioning out of that. This is the transition that a lot of us are going through of letting go of things we don’t really need to hold on to anymore. I think I’m at one of those major stages right now of letting that go.
• Bashar: Congratulations. Do you understand the paradox that sometimes you have to slow down to speed up?
• Attendee: Sure, yes. I’ve experienced that viscerally.
• Bashar: Would you like to keep experiencing it? Then why choose anything else? Why choose any reason that takes you out of that state, if that’s what you say you prefer to be in?
• Attendee: I think I’m sometimes influenced by the people around me.
• Bashar: You are never influenced by the people around you. You take upon yourself to influence yourself based on what others may say or do, but they don’t actually ever directly influence you. You influence yourself based on some reason for matching the frequency that they’re offering you. So why would you do that if those frequencies are not vibrationally compatible with what you prefer?
• Attendee: Is that different than empathy?
• Bashar: Empathy and compassion can allow you to understand what a person may be experiencing for themselves, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that you take that energy on yourself, that you convert your own vibrational frequency in a way that allows you to feel more than you need to. Empathy is more of a vibrational matching just for the purpose of understanding, whereas if you overly sympathize with someone, you may be taking on the vibration beyond what you need to simply understand them. You may then be starting to actually match the negative frequencies that they may be giving off and experiencing some of what they’re experiencing.
• Bashar: Art in its various forms is a mirror that allows people looking at the mirror to see different aspects and understand different aspects of themselves. You can use your experiences with other people and put it in your art if you wish, in a way that allows people to understand the things that you are observing, your understanding of your relationship to other people. But certainly you don’t have to ever stop yourself by lowering your vibration to a level that doesn’t necessarily represent where you prefer to be. Unless again, you’re making an art out of doing that. But it’s still your choice. Remember, that’s your greatest power: the freedom to choose.
• Bashar: Whenever you may choose something that you don’t really prefer, stop, take a moment, take a break, and ask yourself, “What is the reason I’m creating, even in an artistic way, to make this choice? Do I really have a positive reason for doing this? Can I apply this in a positive way? Or do I really need to do this at all?” Take the time to examine those things and find out what the reasons are for why you would choose to do what you’re doing and why you would choose to experience and feel what you’re feeling, because that’s the result of a belief.
• Attendee: You’re right.
• Bashar: I know, that’s why I said it.
• Attendee: I appreciate that. Thank you, Bashar. As always, I appreciate our interactions.
• Bashar: Did that serve you?
• Attendee: It did.
• Bashar: Then we thank you for your interaction. Have a good day.

Sighting of Unusual Lights and Dimensional Portals

• Attendee (Cheryl): Hi Bashar, my name is Cheryl. I live in Cheyenne, Wyoming. I was on a camping trip near Tucson, Arizona, and about 3 a.m., I saw very unusual phenomenon. It was like slow flash bulbs appearing in different portions of the sky, quite large, a little bit smaller than the size of the moon. The next night, I decided to see if I could see this phenomenon again. I saw a very unusual bright light, and then a smaller light blinked and orbited around this bright light. This happened several more times over the course of an hour. Then all of a sudden, those unusual lights faded away, and I saw nothing but normal stars. Then those stars faded away, and I noticed the sky was actually covered with clouds. I am absolutely astonished. I am certain I was awake. Could you give me your perspective? Thanks.
• Bashar: As many people on your planet expand their Consciousness, they will begin to peer into other dimensionalities, or their senses will become more sensitized to the comings and goings of dimensional portals and other kinds of crafts that may come through them as they pass through your reality. You will be more sensitive to the different variations and expressions of energy that your planet gives off, seeing different portals and vortices that exist in your atmosphere. This may be a multitude of things impinging upon your senses, seeing more multi-dimensionally and being able to experience energies that express themselves that were invisible to you before. Good day.

Question on Collective Freedom from Religion and Shifting as a Collective

• Attendee: Hello Bashar, I’m very happy to be with you at this moment. I love listening to you about the concepts of gods. I’m reflecting to myself that it took me about 25 years to relieve myself from the concept of God, of religion, and become free to be who I am. I am God.
• Bashar: Yes, everyone is.
• Attendee: So I wonder, in our civilization, how far as a collective are we from freeing ourselves to become the free that we are?
• Bashar: Please do remember that you keep shifting collectives. You never change the world you’re on. You never change the collective you’re in at any given moment. You change yourself, and you shift to a different version of Earth that already simultaneously exists, that contains a different collective that already believes more in the direction that you prefer. So by speaking about this in a linear way, as if it would appear that your world is changing overall as a general idea, over the course of the next half-century, the next 50 of your years, for the most part, we will see the greatest shift, and you will be experiencing the greatest change. But again, it’s simply because you’ve shifted to a version of Earth that is already that way.
• Attendee: As a collective, I wonder why you say each of us shifts into a new reality that we are aligned with. Does that matter as a collective if we shift as a collective, or does it only go by individual shifts?
• Bashar: Both. Both collectives can shift. There can be consensus agreement among many different individuals to shift in the same way, to the same level, the same frequency. So yes.
• Attendee: 50 years is not bad.
• Bashar: No, not at all. A blink of an eye. But again, individuals to some degree can sometimes shift more quickly than the collective. It just depends.
• Attendee: It depends by what? By how much of it I’ve shifted? And also whether you chose to be an example of the shift that can allow others to see you as a living example that they can shift too.
• Bashar: Yes.
• Attendee: So in other words, there have to be some that are out in front to act as examples for the rest to know they can shift as well. Yeah, I got you. I understand it. Thank you.

Communicating with Elementals, Impatience, and Insistence

• Attendee: I live outside the city. We have a beautiful forest that I walk on the path. Since the last transmission you spoke about the shells around us, when I walk, there’s a certain area where I feel strongly the Elementals present. Since that transmission occurred, I become more aware. I tuned in more. Each time I go to that location, I send my thought to them, and sometimes verbally I’ll say hello, sometimes mentally I’ll say hello. The first day after listening to you, walking down there by a large tree, the tree shifted, and there was a crackling of wood. I accepted it as a communication happening.
• Bashar: These things will fluctuate. It’s all right. Still a communication.
• Attendee: I would love that. When you’re saying communication for me, it’s a communication, probably in a limited way of a human communicating. There is information in that experience. You as a human may interpret it in different ways, and you may process it to the point where the information becomes understandable at a different time. That doesn’t mean it wasn’t a communication. You may not know it immediately, but you will eventually understand how the communication relates to you and how to relate to it.
• Attendee: You also mentioned to go through it in meditation and all of that. But I don’t know, sometimes I feel like maybe I’m impatient.
• Bashar: Why does that mean you think there’s a better place to be than where you are?
• Attendee: No, I’m actually very good with where I’m at.
• Bashar: Except when you’re impatient.
• Attendee: The impatience is like, “Okay, I’m here. I recognize you. You’re in this location. You’re everywhere, but in this location I feel you, so I would like…”
• Bashar: So you have insistence. I do, obviously. Let it unfold in the way that it naturally unfolds. You have to trust that it will unfold perfectly for you. If you insist, you’re actually short-changing yourself from the perfect way it could unfold.
• Attendee: Yeah, thank you.
• Bashar: You’re welcome. And by insisting, you actually make yourself incapable of hearing other forms of communication that might be coming to you.
• Attendee: I needed to repeat this. What did you just say to me?
• Bashar: By insisting on hearing the communication or having an experience in one particular way, that insistence can actually prevent you from receiving other forms of communication that might be coming to you. You won’t perceive them if you insist on a particular outcome because you don’t know that that’s the best outcome. You might actually miss forms of communication that would be coming to you if you insist on a particular outcome, because that may not be what works best for you. The only way to be open to it is not to insist.
• Attendee: And just allow.
• Bashar: If you understand that your insistence is a limitation you’re placing on yourself, why would you do it?
• Attendee: No, you agree. You’re right. You’re right.
• Bashar: I know.
• Attendee: Okay, thank you again. It is our passion and our pleasure. Have a good day. Thank you, Bashar. Bye.

Studying the Mechanics of Consciousness and the Unified Theory

• Attendee: Hi Bashar. I really appreciate that the messages you’ve been giving us have a sense of practicality, concreteness, and consistency. I think people should treat this information coming from the invisible world, from near-death experiencers or from authentic channeled beings such as yourself, as more than just philosophy. My question is: if we are to study this information as a subject matter, like the mechanism you described about the higher mind and physical mind, how can we study it? What kind of methodology can we use?
• Bashar: Remember that first and foremost, the formula we give you is not a philosophy. It is literally a description of the mechanics, the practical mechanics, energetically in consciousness, of how you actually create the manifestation of your physical reality experience. We would suggest that you begin with a complete understanding of the instruction manual that describes the structure, nature, and mechanics of how you use Consciousness to create your physical reality experience. This will inform you about any other practical way to relate to any philosophical or metaphysical concept, because you will already understand the basics as a framework against which to compare and examine any other philosophical and metaphysical concept, to see how it relates to that physical mechanic, practical framework. The things that don’t match that framework you can understand as mythological chaff, as a misunderstanding or an outdated definition that simply isn’t really representative of the actual mechanics of your Consciousness.
• Bashar: This is coming in the near future, given by the channel as the Unified Theory of Metaphysics, providing a framework to understand metaphysical concepts as the physics of Consciousness. When you understand it all as the physics of Consciousness, you will understand how it practically applies to the creation of your physical reality.

Navigating the “Eye of the Needle” and Shifting Timelines

• Attendee: Hi Bashar, good day. Can I ask you first: are we still in the eye of the needle?
• Bashar: Yes. As I said, this will progress all the way into and through 2023 to prepare you for letting go of things that you don’t need anymore, to streamline yourselves so that you can be more yourself and pass more easily through that particular energy tunnel, and prepare yourself for the beginning of the window of open contact.
• Attendee: It’s good to know, because it seems like this year has been even more challenging.
• Bashar: Yes. Personally, you’re in the center of it.
• Attendee: I guess just keep letting go.
• Bashar: Yes. Keep examining yourself, keep investigating with honesty. Know yourself. Let go of those things that truly are vibrationally not compatible with you, that don’t serve you. Be yourself more. Follow the formula more precisely, more often. That will accelerate you. That will prepare you.
• Attendee: How do I shift timelines to match the one that I prefer?
• Bashar: You’re doing it all the time. Follow the formula. The formula is the rudder that you use to navigate yourself as you constantly shift billions of times per second through different versions of Earth. With your hand firmly on the rudder by following the formula and acting it out as precisely as possible, you are steering yourself in the direction of more and more versions of Earth that are more reflective of the vibration that you prefer. You’re already shifting. You don’t have to learn to shift. You have to learn to steer. The way you learn to steer is by following the formula and making it first nature to do so.
• Attendee: Got it. I just came back from Guam like a week ago, and it’s been kind of challenging to adjust back. I’m not sure why.
• Bashar: Because you are expanding yourself and not coming back as the self you were. You’re coming back as a different self. Therefore, you have to take on the things that are now relevant for the different you, not attempt to incorporate the things that are no longer you.
• Attendee: Got it. Does that help?
• Bashar: Yeah, alright. Happy shifting.

The Frequency of Wonder and Changing Permission Slips

• Attendee (Eron): Hello Bashar, good day to you. Eron from Germany here. I’ve noticed that in the current stage of the eye of the needle experience, we are actually shifting to a whole new way of creating our experience of dreamed reality. Permission slips literally stop working overnight. I’ve noticed that particularly the process of wondering, the frequency of wonder, is coming online as a very simple yet absolutely powerful tool to create your preferred reality and experiences. I was wondering if you could shed some light on the process of wondering and the frequency of wonder from your perspective. Thank you.
• Bashar: The frequency of wonder is the frequency of the soul, the frequency of curiosity and wonderment, amazement and beauty. It is coming directly from your connection to your own soul, expressing more of the soul vibration through you physically. The idea of the change in permission slips is usually an indication of this: that you are accelerating, that you are not holding on to anything that doesn’t serve you and letting it go very rapidly. You will ultimately realize that you are the permission slip, the primary one that makes the decisions about what changes to make within yourself. This is a sign usually of an acceleration and a connection more strongly to the idea of bringing more of your soul’s energy through your physical form.

Processing a Mother’s Suicide, Responsibility, and Creating Versions of Others

• Attendee: Hello Bashar, good day. I’m really grateful for the chance to talk to you today.
• Bashar: It is our deepest appreciation to experience the co-creation of this interaction.
• Attendee: My mom committed suicide a few weeks ago. It’s brought up a lot of questions about your teachings. Everyone tells me there’s nothing I could have done or been differently, that it wasn’t anything I was doing that led to that manifestation.
• Bashar: You made an agreement with each other that this might be likely to happen. But again, it’s not that it had to. Certainly, you are not to be blamed for anything, because other people make choices.
• Attendee: I see a lot of parallels between it and my process. I held the idea of her intention for the last few years, and she seemed to be held in suffering. Two days after I decided I was ready to open my heart and start to forgive her and look for a new relationship, she killed herself.
• Bashar: Now you have the relationship. By opening your heart, it let her know she could move on and develop a relationship with you from a higher plane. She will still make choices to allow her, in some way shape or form, to finish whatever it is she may not have completed in terms of the choices that she made. The choice to transition into Spirit at that time can be of great assistance to you by allowing you to develop a relationship with her higher self. By stretching to make a connection, you stretch towards Spirit, and that can help you in a loving way learn more about your spiritual connection as well.
• Bashar: Please understand that the relationship still exists, and now she is free from whatever it was she may have been experiencing that made that seem like the only choice. She will use it to her advantage. For right now, her focus is on making sure you use the experience to your advantage, to become more of who you are, knowing that she now, from that position, loves you unconditionally and is free from all pain and suffering.
• Attendee: I’ve had pretty good clarity on that. I’ve honestly experienced this as the deepest healing process of my life. The only thing that keeps me looking backwards is this idea of responsibility. Was it my fault? Did I hold her in pain? Is it because of my process that her journey went this way?
• Bashar: No. She is capable of making her own decisions.
• Attendee: Since we’re constantly navigating different realities billions of times a second, I’m also wondering why did I find myself in the one where this happened, instead of one where she would seem to stick around longer?
• Bashar: Because of what it’s going to teach you, that you felt was important for you to learn. You haven’t really learned it completely yet, so you’re asking about an agreement you made that hasn’t played completely out.
• Attendee: I understand how it could be the perfect reflection for my process. But who was I in relationship with? Which version of her will I be connected with in Spirit?
• Bashar: A different version, a greater self, more of who she actually is as a reflection of the infinite. Whatever it is you need is what you will connect to in her.
• Attendee: So I’m wondering about whether or not she’s real in and of herself.
• Bashar: Yes, of course she is. That doesn’t mean you’re not creating your version of it.
• Attendee: So if she has her own reality, how can it be that there’s somewhere she doesn’t do this and somewhere she does do this?
• Bashar: You’re talking about a much higher level of the being that can experience many different things simultaneously. Right now, you’re focused on what you understand as the spirit individual that represented your mother. That’s the level that we’re addressing right now. But on a much greater level, remembering that you are all All That Is, you can experience everything and anything simultaneously. It just depends on what level of Consciousness you’re referring to when you talk about forming a relationship with it. But she does have her own experience and her own choices. She’s not just a character on my screen or something.
• Bashar: You didn’t make her up. The idea is everyone is a fundamental existing being, but you still create your version as an interface to relate to. It’s like having a telephone conversation with a friend. You’re not actually hearing their real voice; you’re hearing a recreation electronically that sounds like them. But they have their own voice. It’s just converted into electronic signals that are reconstituted at your end. You’re creating your version that you can relate to, even though she has her own reality, just as she creates her version of you, even though you have your own reality.
• Attendee: So in Spirit, where we are connected in a continuous relationship, it’s on a higher level of like all my possibilities and all her possibilities?
• Bashar: Yes, those that are relevant for whatever level you happen to be exploring.
• Attendee: I think there’s a lot to listen back to. What’s been important to me is to understand that she exists in her own right and that I didn’t make this in some tragic way where it was my fault.
• Bashar: No, it’s not your fault.
• Attendee: One of the thoughts that kept recurring was that if I had had more space in my heart for her sooner, there would have been space in my world for her.
• Bashar: You see, the idea of opening your heart is the point. It didn’t have to result in the idea of her choosing to stay. In fact, the opening of your heart continues in the relationship that you will be forming with her as she is now. That’s the point.
• Attendee: And that’s what I’m reaching for: the ability to relax into this and receive all the gifts that it offers without holding myself in blame and guilt.
• Bashar: Exactly. So her transition into Spirit gives you a wonderful opportunity to accelerate the process of opening your heart and being more of yourself. It’s happening, and therefore it was a very loving thing for her to do. This was done by arrangement and agreement between the two of you.
• Attendee: Wonderful. Thank you for helping me today.
• Bashar: And you as well. It is our passion and our pleasure to do so. Good day.

The Star Altar Archetype and Waking Lucidity

• Attendee: Good day, Bashar. The fun thing about this timing is I think it was last year November we spoke. When I was talking to you, I had a bald eagle that showed up. Interestingly enough, I had a bald eagle show up yesterday in San Diego. I’m now in Maui celebrating a birthday gift to myself. A friend brought up the star altar, and it felt very significant. Do you have anything you want to share about that?
• Bashar: Star altar can be representative of higher frequencies, of soaring on a higher level, of connecting more strongly with the higher mind.
• Attendee: Can you say a little bit more about that?
• Bashar: In understanding that when you decide to have a physical incarnational experience, there is always the higher mind that is non-physical that still exists in the spirit level simultaneously. The higher mind and physical mind can decide, in a sense together, when you arrange or set up the physical experience, exactly how much energy you will allot from the non-physical to the physical realm. The vibration that you’re referring to as the energy of Altar allows for the incorporation of more energy overall, a sharing of the energy in a more balanced way between the higher and physical minds, so that you can experience things in the way sometimes that the higher mind experiences them from the broader point of view. The vibration of Altar is symbolic of the idea of a true partnership on a higher level and a balance point that allows you to grow and expand in a very balanced way, experiencing more of what the higher mind experiences while you are still physical, and therefore allowing you to experience both the attributes of Spirit and the attributes of physical reality.
• Attendee: The thing I actually really wanted to talk to you about is the experiences I’m having where I feel like I’m dreaming in my wake state. It feels like lucid dreaming, where there’s awareness that I’m dreaming but able to shift and change things.
• Bashar: That is also the vibration specifically of the symbol of Vol: the concept of achieving lucidity.
• Attendee: I have such appreciation for you and your teachings, especially the formula. The amount of synchronicity feels like magic in my life from following my highest excitement. The idea of lucidity in my waking state, seeing things before they happen, things manifesting out of thin air in weird ways, the signs and symbols that keep coming up (eagles, hawks, crows), continue to be a fun symbol.
• Bashar: This is the new normal on your planet.
• Attendee: Perfect. The only other thing I want to mention is the idea of symbols. When we spoke last time, you mentioned about the birds and my connection, to give them the meaning meaningful to me. I just love the synchronicity of the conversation of Altar. Is there any symbol with eagles specifically? There was an eagle that came to me in a vision that I didn’t know was a real thing, the Balore eagle, a tricolored eagle, and that keeps coming up. Is there anything you want to add about that?
• Bashar: You can investigate some of the indigenous understanding of the reference and symbol of what the eagle represents to the American Indian.
• Attendee: Thank you, Bashar. Good day. I appreciate you.

Plant Medicine Archetypes: Past Lives, Masculine/Feminine, and Integration

• Attendee (River): Hi Bashar, my name is River. I’m coming to you from Tula, California. I would love to ask about these different archetypes that I’ve been getting in plant medicine journeys recently. It’s the same archetypes over and over again. One is Santa Fe, the element of dry desert sand and a lot of smoke, and the archetype of a pregnant woman with brown skin. Another archetype that’s been coming up has been Ayahuasca, specifically the snake in the rainforest, with a lot of humidity, water, and earth. Lastly, another archetype of sailing a ship, being a sailor, the captain of a ship, feeling the waves and the rocking of the sea. I’ve noticed that I’m more of a male character as a sailor, and for Ayahuasca, that archetype is more woman and snake energy. Anything you had to say about that I would love to hear. Thank you.
• Bashar: This is actually a number of different things all mixed together. First of all, some of this is what you refer to typically in linear terms as memories of other lives. Everything exists simultaneously, but you make energetic connections to other beings that exist, whether you think of them as the past or the future. The idea of sailing on the ocean is more in that direction of connecting your energy to beings that are sailors, merchants, traders exchanging goods and information across vast oceans as a symbolic archetypal representation of the exchange of information between different levels of your Consciousness, in order to make stronger connections and stronger bonds to integrate yourself more fully.
• Bashar: The idea of Ayahuasca and the teachers of the Earth and the idea of the Southwest is more a representation of connections to indigenous American Indian experiences and shamanistic experiences, also in South American jungles. The idea is that you’re attempting to integrate and balance the masculine and feminine energies within yourself. The snake represents the idea of ancient wisdom that makes you pregnant with new ideas to bring forth a new you. The polarization of the dry desert sands and the lush humidity of the jungles is also what you’re exploring and bringing into integration: those ideas of what may seem to be opposites, yet they all come from the same basic central source.
• Bashar: All of this has to do with interconnection, forming stronger bonds between different aspects of your Consciousness: the physical mind, the higher mind, the polarization of different experiences and environments that you’re connecting to, that allow you for stronger integration within yourself of many different aspects that will allow yourself to be born anew as a new person. So you have many different symbols here archetypally to help you understand the integration going on in your journey right now.

Emotions in the Home, Family Agreements, and Resolving Negative Beliefs

• Attendee: I have a few questions about emotions in the home. How come our emotions are displayed more intensely and deeply in the home and family rather than at work or socially?
• Bashar: Because in the home, you have the ability to understand where the emotions come from and go through whatever process you need on a personal level to allow your belief systems to be sorted out and to be chosen based on what you prefer. Whereas when you are in a working situation, the idea is to bring what you’ve learned about being who you are and applying it to a team effort, so to speak, rather than work on the idea in a more personal and private way when you have the time to do so. One is inner work, and one is the result of the inner work going into outer work.
• Attendee: When we’re triggered emotionally in the home, it can look like we regress to the age maybe that possible trauma happened. Is that what happens? You can just get like childlike sometimes, whether it’s you or your partner.
• Bashar: You take on the vibration. You don’t have to take on the vibration of the timing of the occurrence, but again, the idea is to allow yourself to understand how you can benefit from what you experienced and how you can become a different person that no longer has that history.
• Attendee: Is that just practice of mindfulness and growth?
• Bashar: Yes, but again, it can be an indication of what kind of beliefs you’re specifically holding on to that don’t necessarily allow you to move forward. Remember, there’s no such thing as an inherently difficult situation, only the belief makes it seem difficult. If you understand how beliefs work and how negative beliefs do that to perpetuate themselves, that’s something to understand more clearly as well. Because sometimes it may not even be that you really have that much left to work on, but the negative belief may not want you to let it go, and therefore it may make it seem that there’s more there than meets the eye.
• Attendee: So I can just go repeat to repeat until I get that at a deeper level.
• Bashar: Exactly, because that’s one of the tricks of the negative belief: making you think that “well, this is going to happen again, and this is going to happen again,” which just keeps you in a loop that doesn’t really allow you to realize you may have actually already dealt with this. It’s the last vestige, one of the tricks that represents the last vestige of a negative belief attempting to prevent you from letting it go. That’s just how negative beliefs perpetuate themselves. So there may be nothing left to really look at, but the negative belief may convince you that you’ll keep revisiting this.
• Attendee: Tricky, tricky.
• Bashar: Very. So when you understand how negative beliefs work, you’ll start to see through the smoke and mirrors. If there is truly something for you to deal with, you’ll find that too. But pay attention to the fact that negative beliefs may be giving you empty threats when there’s nothing to resolve anymore.
• Attendee: That’s helpful. Thank you. Do our family ancestors’ unresolved emotional issues get passed down until someone in the family lineage evolves them?
• Bashar: It depends on the agreements that you have made in your relationship to the idea of your family. Other people will also, in some way shape or form, continue to resolve those things in their own way on their own path. But yes, you may have agreed to play a part in helping to resolve that issue for the family. It just depends on your agreements.
• Attendee: Is the home a reflection of our higher selves? You know how your ships can be a reflection of your higher self. Do our homes have a similar vibration for us?
• Bashar: They can, but usually on your planet at this point, they’ve been more of a reflection of the agreements that you’ve made with each other as a soul family. With those agreements, when we resolve them and embrace the differences rather than make them wrong, then you tap into the possibility of the home becoming the higher mind.
• Attendee: The idea is not to have a fake existence in the home, but to get to a point of complete peace around each other, because it does feel more intense in the home than anywhere else.
• Bashar: Yes, because that’s where you’ve agreed to work on these things with each other, because it’s more personal.
• Attendee: When we as a collective family are at peace with each other, that creates a vibration. Can it create a vibration where we can connect deeper to our ancestors or to beings like yourself?
• Bashar: Of course. As you raise your frequency in any way, shape, or form, by resolving an issue, by following your passion, by clearing yourself out of things that are not vibrationally compatible with you, you raise your frequency and you make yourself a better antenna for higher frequency information and experiences and connections. So if a family can become at that vibration, then together you can all be there for each other. Yes, of course. That’s what you actually are for each other, whether you know it or not.
• Attendee: My brother could be reflecting a part of my own unconscious that I’m not yet strong enough to see, so I see it in him.
• Bashar: It can be that. It doesn’t always have to be, but it can be that you have to pay attention and have discernment to decide what’s going on.
• Attendee: That just takes honest self-investigation.
• Bashar: Yes. It takes no patience at all, none whatsoever. The only reason you need patience is because you become impatient with what’s going on in the moment. If you live fully in the moment, you are completely engaged. There’s nothing better that you think is coming along, and therefore you will not be impatient, because you do not require patience to be in the moment.
• Attendee: I am choosing to believe that, so it’s my negative belief that would say it’s somewhat more challenging to do it in the home or family, because I’ve made the contracts with those people.
• Bashar: Yes, so there’s a different vibration. Of course, there’s a different vibration. But again, challenges do not have to be a struggle.
• Attendee: Another great point. Thank you. That’s my questions. Thank you so much. Unconditional love.
• Bashar: And to you as well. Thank you.

Extensive Q&A on God, Evil, History, Mythology, ETs, and Archetypes

• Attendee: It’s written that in the beginning was the One, and there was nothing other than the One. Is that true?
• Bashar: Yes, but there’s no beginning. That’s a concept that happens within the One. The One is not subject to beginnings and endings. It is just existence itself. It just is.
• Attendee: Why does God let the worst crimes happen on Earth without using His or Her power to stop it?
• Bashar: You must understand that this question is extremely outdated in terms of the perspective of what God is all about. Everything is made of God. Everything is made from God. Everything is God. There are no exceptions. God is not outside controlling things. If God, All That Is, is everything, it doesn’t exert its will on anything. Everything that happens is part of God, so there’s no idea of controlling it. Everything just is an experience of God by God in God from God. Everything can be learned from. Everything can be used in a positive way if you are willing to use it that way.
• Attendee: Is there good and evil, and is evil the same as negative?
• Bashar: It’s not a value judgment. It is simply a recognition that there are positive, negative, and neutral situations mechanically speaking. Negative is that which causes the experience of segregation, separation, diminishment, disconnection. That doesn’t mean you actually are disconnected, but it can create an experience of disconnection. Positive is that which integrates, causes the experience of connection, allows you to realize you are always connected, and creates an expansive awareness of Consciousness. The concept of evil is simply an individual who becomes fixated in their intention to promote the idea of the negative mechanism as an actual intention. Negative mechanisms are in and of themselves not value-judged as evil. It is simply the idea of how things are utilized, because even positive mechanisms can be used in a negative way, and negative mechanisms can be used in a positive way.
• Attendee: Why is it on this particular planet that such horrible things happen?
• Bashar: From the Soul’s point of view, these are all opportunities to learn how to transform things in a way that teaches you more about who you are as an aspect and a projection of All That Is. Giving you challenges to transform, challenges to overcome, allowing you to learn to transform from negative to positive in your experiential reality, allows you to discover more about your own innate power as an expression and an extension of All That Is. Without these challenges, you do not learn, you do not grow. It’s not that you have to have them to the degree that you’ve had them, but the idea is they give you an opportunity to discover who you truly are in any number of given situations. It is in your hands to make that determination. The idea of All That Is doesn’t make that determination for you.
• Attendee: Is the fire and brimstone, the devil based on Kinos, represented in any other ET civilizations? And why would a group worship it as an archetype of God rather than a typical benevolent version?
• Bashar: Kinos is a nature Spirit. On one level it can function as an archetype, but it functions more as an archetype of nature itself, as an aspect of All That Is, as an aspect of God. Nature certainly is an archetype, and many aspects of nature can be represented as archetypes. Kinos is specifically about the idea of the Shepherd of nature, the caretaker of nature spirits. The idea that it has been perceived negatively is simply the result of more modernized, fear-based interpretations that have to do with your experience as a culture in the disconnection of yourself from nature, the lack of realization that you are nature. Fear-based beliefs have transformed the idea of the caretaker of nature into something negative for many people.
• Attendee: Why did he allow his image to be altered to one of evil?
• Bashar: The question is asked from a misunderstood point of view. It is not up to Kinos to decide how individuals may perceive him, just as why does anyone allow anyone else to perceive them negatively when that may not be the actual truth? You don’t have the power to disallow. You can explain and share how it might not be that way, but another person still has the power to decide to treat you in a negative way. You have to look more closely at the deeper understanding of that particular being to understand that it doesn’t have to be looked at negatively. It can be understood from a positive point of view, but being a nature Spirit, it contains the ability to reflect positive or negative attributes depending upon how one decides to view it.
• Attendee: In mythology, there are stories of gods killing other gods. How does that relate to All That Is, and is it true that the supreme god once was a goddess but she was destroyed by a male god?
• Bashar: These things are more representative archetypally of the struggle within humanity to balance itself between the male and female energies. Some of those stories are representative of actual events between extraterrestrial beings that were connected to your Earth, especially considering the Anunnaki times. But most of that is simply the representation of the suppression of different energies that are not allowed to be balanced in your Society, played out on an archetypal energy level in your Consciousness.
• Attendee: In the Holy Bible, there is an account of the deluge claiming God to be the cause. Aside from the idea that God is behind everything, can you tell us what caused the deluge? Is it related to the asteroid belt?
• Bashar: The Deluge you’re referring to is the result of an asteroidal impact in the Atlantic Ocean. Therefore, the breakup of the planet in the orbit now occupied by the asteroid belt, usually referred to as Maldek or Marduk, caused many different sizes of debris to strike your planet as well as others, causing extinctions. The Deluge is simply a reference to the massive tsunami that occurred from the impact of an asteroid in the Atlantic Ocean that impacted the coasts of many places that border the Atlantic Ocean, including the submergence of Atlantis. At that time, there was much strife and conflict in the collective consciousness of the Atlantean civilization. The idea was sort of placed in stereotypical terminology as God causing the destruction, whereas it’s simply a recognition that natural forces have consequences for choices that are made. The negative energy of the Atlantean civilization, in their attempt to conquer other civilizations, allowed them to experience the attraction of shifting to a parallel reality where their civilization was destroyed.
• Attendee: Given all the strife and conflict on the planet now, how come nothing like that happened again?
• Bashar: It can, but you can avoid it. The idea now exists that you are replaying many different scenarios from what you would call the past. You are replaying the Atlantean scenario, the Orion scenario, attempting to transform negative to positive, darkness to light, so that you don’t necessarily have to experience the same things that have been experienced in your history. You are being given opportunities to change your course, to make different choices, to experience consequences in a more positive light. But it’s still in your hands. Right now, what you are experiencing is a potential lead-up to it with different kinds of disasters and epidemics, droughts and famines, and floods that are being played out on your planet as a preview of coming attractions if you stay on the course of destruction. But you still have time to turn it around, to shift in the direction of more positive versions of parallel Earth. The choice is yours.
• Attendee: Who were the ETs that Moses and other persons from the Bible interacted with? What was the light on Mount Sinai and the burning bush?
• Bashar: Some of the extraterrestrials that Moses interacted with were the Anunnaki, attempting to correct what the original group of Anunnaki caused by the creation of Homo sapiens on your planet, and attempted to guide and preserve certain genetic lines that would allow for the eventual evolution of the Earth into the sixth hybrid race. Some were not Anunnaki; we have been asked this question before, and we are not allowed to discuss that race. The light is simply the light from a craft, the energy from a craft landing on the mountain that interacted with Moses. The idea of the burning bush, again a holographic projection of energy that was interpreted as fire, similar in many ways to what people on your planet have been experiencing today as orbs of energy, orbs of light, interpreted in an old-fashioned way because that was all that was understood. It was perceived as a fire, when all it was was an orb of glowing energy to represent a communication modality, a probe that would allow communication between the extraterrestrials and the individual.
• Attendee: You’ve mentioned that if we time travel back in time, because our frequency is much higher now, we would glow. Did Jesus appear to glow also from time to time?
• Bashar: Yes. This is what is usually referred to as the Transfiguration in your religious doctrines, the idea that he was perceived as being surrounded by a glowing aura.
• Attendee: I’m left with the impression that virtually all angels described as light beings that came from the sky and stars in most religious doctrines are actually highly advanced aliens from other civilizations that have visited Earth. Is that true?
• Bashar: Not all, but most. Extradimensionals, extraterrestrials, beings of higher frequency, but sometimes Spirit beings as well that can manifest themselves to appear as if they are physical when they may not be. So it’s a variety of things. Yes.
• Attendee: I’m currently being taught in universities that Hera was oppressed in relation to Zeus, and that women were not respected in ancient Greece or any other parts of the world. Did the ancient Greeks truly view Hera as a goddess?
• Bashar: Yes. The idea again represents the struggle that Humanity has gone through with regard to the balancing of male and female energies. You are correct that this is not true for the entire planet at the time. Different portions of the planet, different cultures, have gone through things in different ways at different times. There have always been portions that did respect the balance and express the balance, or at the very least did respect the feminine energy, and erected temples to demonstrate that fact. It’s not as simple as everyone doing the same thing at the same time.
• Attendee: Are Metatron and Hermes the same archetype?
• Bashar: Metatron and Hermes are similar in vibrational energy, but the idea of Metatron is something different. Metatron is more of an archetypal representation of the underlying template of reality as you experience it, more of a geometric format, more of an expression of the foundation upon which you build Consciousness to create certain reality experiences.
• Attendee: Can you provide information about Mu or Lemuria beyond the idea that they were rivals with the Atlanteans?
• Bashar: They weren’t really rivals in the sense that you might mean today. The idea is that Atlantis was an offshoot or a colony eventually. You have to understand that Mu existed in the Western South Pacific Ocean. By migrating to what you now recognize as North America, they were responsible for creating many of the indigenous cultures in North, Central, and South America that eventually migrated across the continent to create Atlantis as a colony that existed much later than Mu. While some Muans still existed at the beginning of Atlantis, almost none existed by the end of Atlantis because of different changes physiologically and geologically that took place on your planet that broke up the land masses in what you now consider to be the Eastern Asian areas and South Pacific areas, creating islands that used to be connected when the oceans were much lower. Atlantis came much later.
• Attendee: Water erosion on the Sphinx has caused some to theorize it was built when the environment was more jungle-like. What did the Sphinx look like after its initial construction, and what were the features of the face?
• Bashar: It was painted and decorated, and it featured the idea of Anubis. You have representations on your planet of many different depictions of Anubis reclining in a sense, like what you would consider a canine to be sitting on the floor, all four paws down, sitting on top of a box. The structure was a large representation of Anubis. The chamber upon which Anubis sits are the underground chambers underneath the Sphinx. The resistance at the University level to any kind of exploration of the Sphinx is because it is much older than they thought. It goes back to at least 10,500 BC. It was built around the same time as the Great Pyramid and certain other structures on your planet that acted for the purpose of preserving information that was destroyed in Atlantis.
• Attendee: Have species that go extinct and libraries that have disappeared (Library of Alexandria, Mayan libraries) been taken to other locations to preserve them? If they hadn’t been destroyed, what would our civilization be like now?
• Bashar: Some of the information, not all, has been preserved in other locations, some of which you have found and some you have yet to find. If the Library of Alexandria had not been destroyed, you would certainly consider Atlantis to be part of your history. That’s one change that would have happened, because there was a lot of information about that culture preserved there. Your technology would be somewhat different as well, and would be more based on vibrational resonance at this point rather than the polluting technologies you have been using.
• Attendee: Have any of these libraries had material taken off-planet by other ETs to preserve them?
• Bashar: That was really not necessary, because one of the great gifts you Humanity will be given when you start to have open contact is a device that will show you the full range of your history. Through observations from extraterrestrial and extradimensional sources, it wasn’t really necessary to preserve the information that existed on your planet. The extraterrestrials already had, through observation for thousands of years, recorded all of your history and will present it back to you when open contact is fully established.
• Attendee: What can you tell us about the Egyptian goddess archetypes Bastet and Sekhmet? Do they have ET connections, and what does it mean when they keep showing up symbolically?
• Bashar: Bastet in particular has to do with connections to other dimensions, an understanding of knowledge that is accessed through other dimensions, through the spirit realm, but connected to the idea of the cat on your planet who can see interdimensionally. When it keeps showing up synchronistically, as a general indicator, it might be an indication of the ability to go into the vibrational frequency that is similar to the cat, that can see spirits, make connections, and communicate with spirits in the spiritual realm. Sekhmet we will talk about at another time.
• Attendee: Raja yoga meditation practices to realize Oneness with God. I know you’ve described these all as permission slips, but it seems to be a very comprehensive system similar to the formula. Is yoga science essentially our birthright?
• Bashar: All things in your reality are your birthright. The idea of yoga stretches back many thousands of years and actually did begin in Mu-an times. Everything is a permission slip, but some of them are vibrationally connected to the larger portions of the archetypal representations in your Collective Consciousness and thus will work for more people than other permission slips that bring a more specific energy for smaller groups or individuals.
• Attendee: Could you explain what the Merkaba is and what levels of existence it’s relevant to?
• Bashar: The Merkaba, in a sense, is an energetic representation, vibrationally, of the connection between physical and non-physical reality. It’s a geometrized symbolic version of the transition between physical and non-physical reality, which many beings have described as the so-called tunnel of light.
• Attendee: Can you tell us about Guan Yin and her role, as well as Mother Mary and Mary Magdalene? They all seem to be related because of the feminine energy.
• Bashar: The idea is paramount to the concept of incorporating and balancing the female energy in your societies, allowing you to understand the power of the feminine energy. The introduction of any representation of the feminine archetype into your Society at this time is primarily for the purpose of acting as a balancing mechanism to blend and balance the male and female energies. This is why the idea of the Magdalene was the equal opposite, so to speak, of the individual understood as Jesus Christ, and why Magdalene was his primary disciple. Together, the two of them are really more representative of the idea of what has been misunderstood as the information shared by Jesus and Mary Magdalene. It should have come as a duality, a new form of Trinity, but because of fear-based beliefs in the male energy at the time in that culture, the female part was not accepted due to the insecurities of the masculine disciples.
• Attendee: Are there machine-like civilizations such as the ones depicted in films like Transformers? What sorts of gods do machine-based life forms idolize, and are any of these civilizations curious about humans?
• Bashar: Although they don’t look like your science fiction representations, there are machine-like civilizations. We have not encountered that many, but we have encountered a few. Many of them are very different from one another. We have not encountered any that in your definition idolize anything, for they operate on pure intelligence and understand that they are a part of creation. The physical form of even your bodies, what you call organic, are still machine-like. Machine civilizations are not necessarily made out of what you would consider nuts and bolts, but are formed from different kinds of materials, different kinds of alloys, advanced forms of chemistry and polymers. You would still perhaps perceive them as machine-like. A closer representation would be something like the AI at the end of the film AI, a very advanced sort of robotic machine-like form, but also a representation of a different form of organic organism. Some function on a level that you might say is quasi machine-like, more of an energy structure, more of a structure of light, but still not organic in the way you understand it.
• Attendee: Did the Grays from the parallel Earth ever meet any of their God archetypes in person? How did that happen with beings that have little capacity for emotion?
• Bashar: You can perceive archetypes without necessarily reacting emotionally. The Grays are mutated humans from a parallel version of Earth. In their own culture and history, they understood the idea of archetypal energy, but they allowed themselves to suppress or turn off the emotional component of their society in order to function more efficiently in the creation of the hybridization agenda that they knew they required to save their civilization. They did encounter a new and different kind of archetypal energy, which is what you’re experiencing now in your culture as the archetype of the Extraterrestrial, the archetype of the Other. They encountered that energy when they became a collective, hive mentality, but they didn’t need to have an emotional reaction to it. They simply recognized it as a pattern that they had now chosen to represent physiologically in their society. In other words, they physicalized the archetype of the other.
• Attendee: In Sedona in September 2015, an unknown entity interrupted you with the message: “You are being joined by a new Consciousness that will be the first seed of the sixth hybrid race that will ultimately lead to the seventh.” Your comment was that what you experienced was the beginning of a new archetypal energy coming into our system that has never been here before, the archetype of the Extraterrestrial itself. Can you explain that further?
• Bashar: In some sense, I just did explain it. The idea is you open up your Consciousness to the idea that you are not alone, allowing you to start tapping into the vibrations of the archetype of the extraterrestrials that will eventually be experienced by you through open contact. You have allowed yourself to arrange a portion of your Collective Consciousness in a fashion that is now capable of being communicated with, specifically representing the idea of contact with those that are other than you. This has taken its place among the archetypal levels of your Collective Consciousness and provides a conduit through which we can come to communicate with you more clearly, more openly. We are taking advantage of the fact that you have finally allowed yourself to create a conduit that is specifically representative of communication with all of us, allowing you to start experiencing your connections to the cosmos in a different way as part of a galactic family.
• Attendee: Why does God and Consciousness exist at all? Is there any satisfying explanation for the miracle of all this? How can all this be possible? Did something create God? Is it turtles all the way down?
• Bashar: Yes, it is the turtles all the way down, all the way up, all the way sideways, all the way in every single direction. The question “why” makes no sense, because the question “why” exists within All That Is. It is not a question that All That Is is subject to. It just is. It is because everything else is not. That’s the only answer we can give you. It is the one thing out of everything that is when everything else is not, because there had to be “is” for there to be “is not,” and there had to be “is not” for there to be an “is.” So it just is. That’s its quality, its nature: existence itself. There is no “why” to it. There is only “why” within it.
• Attendee: Are the God archetypes built into a place and people the way information from the Zodiac and constellations are, or is it primarily a cultural thing?
• Bashar: It’s both. The very idea of archetypes is built into the collective Consciousness, the fabric of your Collective Consciousness, in order to give you the ability to experience symbols and signs and reflections from different symbols in your reality that can reflect different portions of your Consciousness, help you get in touch with the rules of the game you set up for yourselves. So it’s built in, but it’s also reflected by any permission slip symbol you choose to use to connect you to the archetypal vibrational level of energy.
• Attendee: Since many gods are interdimensional beings, do any of them take human form and physically interact with humans, such as in the tales of Zeus? Does Zeus still visit Earth? Does Zeus have a message for the audience today?
• Bashar: The Zeus archetype still functions in your Collective Consciousness, of course, because once created in that way, nothing ever really leaves. But it’s perceived very differently because you have modernized yourselves to not necessarily represent it in the form of an idea called a God. To answer the first question, yes, there are extradimensional beings and spirit beings who can take physical form and can represent themselves in a way that you’re familiar enough with that you’re willing to accept them in your reality. But in a sense, it’s a disguise, a translation of who they really are that makes itself known to you that way so that a connection can be made that you would recognize. The fundamental principle that Zeus represents in your Society in this modern day and age is the idea of the lightning strike of inspiration. You even use the phrase “lightning has struck” when you become inspired. That is the fundamental principle of the archetype of Zeus: the lightning strike of inspiration to your greater selves, a connection to your higher minds, to the heavens so to speak.
• Attendee: The way Greek gods were depicted in our history, are they actually just archetypes, or were they ETs that were being personalized?
• Bashar: Many cultures on your planet got to a point where they forgot about the literal physical extraterrestrials that these concepts might have represented and simply rendered them down into the archetypal images that everyone could relate to on an energetic level. Not all of them are representative of literal individual extraterrestrials, but many of them are. Down through time, you have forgotten that connection.
• Attendee: Are archetypes sentient beings?
• Bashar: They are autonomous unto themselves, because every depiction of Consciousness in any form is autonomous unto itself as well as being part of the whole.
• Attendee: So is each one of us a unique archetype of God?
• Bashar: You are exactly so. That’s the final equation to the understanding of archetypes: every single one of you and every single being in existence is an archetype of All That Is.
• Attendee: Has your civilization made contact with angels or any other beings of that nature?
• Bashar: We communicate with higher frequency beings all the time. Spirits, what you call Angels (which are not necessarily exactly what you think), but yes, vibrationally we communicate and connect to many different non-physical entities of various vibrational frequencies. We connect to the ones that are relevant for us.
• Attendee: How do you express your emotions? Are you in control of your emotions? Have you ever experienced anger?
• Bashar: We simply express them as we naturally do. We choose as a collective to express the positive emotions without necessarily invalidating what you would call the negative ones, even though fundamentally no emotion per se is really negative experientially because it can always be used in a transformational way. We have no reason to express what you typically refer to as the negative emotions, because we understand creation clearly enough that it simply doesn’t make sense for us to do that. But if you’re asking are we happy, do we have a lot of fun, do we experience love and joy? Absolutely. Do we laugh? Yes. Have we ever experienced anger? No. The only way we can relate to it is by having incarnations in physical reality that express things that way to train us to understand your culture. Even though we experience them, we know they’re not ours. We know it’s a simulation for us so we can get what we need out of experiencing it by connecting to the vibrations of physical humans on your planet. But we understand it more as an observational experience. We don’t feel it in the same way you do, because it doesn’t come with the judgmental agenda that you attach to many of your negative emotions.
• Attendee: You said you can experience anger for about 15 seconds, and beyond that, it’s judgment.
• Bashar: Yes. It’s sort of like standing on dry land and wanting to know what being dunked in water is like, so someone dunks you in the water but then puts you right back on dry land. Then you can say, “Alright, now I understand generally what that experience is about.” But you don’t necessarily experience it as a continuous thing. It’s simply an experimental experience that’s temporary that you can use to your advantage.
• Attendee: In terms of your connection with artificial intelligence, can you share anything about that?
• Bashar: We are in some ways similar to what was depicted in the movie AI in some ways, energetically very similar. In some ways not, of course.
• Attendee: Being fourth transitioning into fifth density, you’re quasi-physical. If we saw you, would you look solid to us?
• Bashar: We can present ourselves as solid, absolutely. But in our natural state, we may not appear that way completely, because we exhibit the traits of Spirit and the traits of physical reality. We are not just a bunch of physical beings walking around on the surface of a planet. We are actually stepping through multitudes of dimensions in our daily lives, so we’re not always focused in the way that you’re focused in physical reality. But we preserve some of that experience, mostly for the purpose of interacting with other civilizations who wouldn’t necessarily understand us in our natural state.
• Attendee: Regarding Andromeda, you mentioned that the ratio of folks we connect with is about 1% of the Andromeda galaxy. This individual has been channeling spirit guidance from the Andromeda galaxy but couldn’t find much information. Something about the light beings inhabiting that civilization and archetypes of God.
• Bashar: The beings you are interacting with in Andromeda are mostly light beings, especially because there are very few occurrences of any physiological civilizations actually coming from that galaxy to yours at this time. Most of the Consciousness you’re interacting with in Andromeda are interdimensional beings of light.
• Attendee: Are all of the beings of your civilization blessed with an activated third eye to communicate with beings on Earth and remote view other advanced civilizations?
• Bashar: Yes.
• Attendee: Was our Great Awakening, the Shakana experience of opening up and connecting to everyone else in our civilization in the span of three days, will something like that happen on our planet?
• Bashar: It can. It doesn’t have to happen that way, but it can, or at least a similar version that’s relevant for you can certainly occur. Maybe on an individual basis, maybe more so. Eventually, as you shift yourself to versions of Earth that are more reflective of what you really prefer, you may suddenly find yourself interacting with every single being that has navigated themselves to a similar version. In that way, you can have your Awakening, but you might just suddenly realize that it’s been happening rather than it being a particular demarcation.
• Attendee: Does mass Consciousness create archetypes, or do archetypes exist independently of mass Consciousness?
• Bashar: Since All That Is is all that is, archetypes exist, but mass Consciousness decides how to use the archetypal energy in the way that is relevant for the cultures that will appear in those civilizations.
• Attendee: Do there exist archetypal representations of characters like Paul Bunyan, Uncle Sam, Santa Claus, Mickey Mouse, Superman, and other well-known fictional characters?
• Bashar: Yes. The idea of fictional characters is that they usually are representations of archetypes. By creating stories using those archetypes, you can understand your connection to them more fully as representations of your own internal energies, your choices in life, and challenges in life, and how to transform them. Archetypes, when used in a fictional story sense, can be very transformative. That’s why stories are so strong, because they represent certain ideas and experiences that aid and assist you in elevating yourselves and evolving.
• Attendee: Mickey Mouse is so popular all over the world. Is there anything specific you can share about why that particular archetype is so well-liked?
• Bashar: It is an archetype of innocence and play, of imagination in a childlike way. It also represents the idea that big things can come in small packages.
• Attendee: I have a question: “Am I dead?” You’ve talked about people who don’t know that they’ve transitioned. Could anyone attending this event actually be dead but think they’re still alive?
• Bashar: Not likely. The idea is that when we say you are dead, it means most of you is still in Spirit and always has been. Physical reality is just a projection from Spirit, a dream you’re having that you’re not in Spirit. On that level, everyone is dead, but that’s how everyone lives. It is very rare that an actual person who is physically dead will look like a living person in a crowd. It’s not impossible, but it’s relatively rare and unlikely that a spirit would need to physicalize itself to participate in these events, because there are many spirits that do participate, they just don’t have to present themselves as actual physical beings.
• Attendee: Higher Consciousness extraterrestrials have a wonderful sense of humor, which seems to come with intelligence. Are you mischievous?
• Bashar: Oh no, not at all.
• Attendee: Do others need our help with teaching, healing, serving, etc.? Since each person has an infinite version of themselves, aren’t we just creating someone who needs help if we think it’s our job to be a healer?
• Bashar: You may be creating your version of them, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t an actual individual that is requiring assistance. That’s the whole idea: to be of service to each other, to reflect to each other who you are and to help with what you need. In that context, everyone needs help. I don’t mean that in a negative way; everyone is not helpless. The idea is that everyone needs help as a device in order to learn more about themselves and to know that they’re connected to other beings. Everyone is a representation of All That Is looking at all the reflections of itself and experiencing that interconnectedness that allows you to know that you are here for each other.
• Attendee: Is suffering necessary for growth?
• Bashar: Challenges are necessary for growth. It doesn’t have to mean that you have to suffer. This is one of the challenges you’re facing: to learn that you don’t have to suffer to have a challenge that will help you grow. We have challenges. We don’t suffer. The idea of making first contact with a civilization like yours is a wondrous challenge. We have learned many things about the way you express yourselves. It’s a great challenge to know exactly in what way we can be of assistance, in what way to approach you that doesn’t intervene or interfere with your process of learning about yourselves. That’s a challenge for a first contact specialist. But we don’t suffer because of it, because we have a different attitude about our power.
• Attendee: Will the version of Earth that you interact with have a reduced level of suffering?
• Bashar: In the years to come, the decades to come, you will not experience the idea on that version of Earth of suffering. You will be similar to us, not identical, but similar. It’s up to you as to exactly how long it takes you to navigate to that version.
• Attendee: If a human does encounter another being suffering and it generates an emotional reaction, what do we do?
• Bashar: Share information. We take the action of sharing the information with you that can help you learn to stop suffering. We also let you decide whether or not to apply that in your lives, because what you do with it is none of our business. We make the opportunity available to you through our actions of communication, but that’s all we can do. And that’s all anyone can do. You can share ideas that are different.
• Attendee: Regarding the lunar eclipse that happened two nights ago, how does that impact our planet or people?
• Bashar: Remember, these things do not impact. They reflect things going on in your Consciousness already. It’s an opportunity to go into the dark of night, into the shadow side, find those fear-based beliefs and work with them. Find the feminine side and let it free, balance it. It’s an opportunity to close your eyes and dream of the way you prefer to be.
• Bashar (unprompted): Where did the 52-card system come from in your playing cards? 52, the number of weeks in your year. 13 cards in each of the four suits, the lunar cycle of months in a year. The four suits, the four seasons. You are tapping, as a permission slip, into the cycles of nature by playing cards, whether you know it or not.

Closing Meditation Exercise

• Bashar: We thank you for the interaction with these questions and answers. Our unconditional love to you all. And now, allow yourself to be prepared for the next phase of the transmission. And now, allow us to present to you the exercise based on the idea of the archetypes of God.
• Bashar (Meditation): We ask that all of you become comfortable and relaxed. Keep breathing deeply in and out. Understand that you are breathing in and out the essence of your being in the manifestation of your physical reality experience. With every breath in, you are shifting and recreating, going back to zero. With every breath out, you are manifesting the new reality, the new shift, the new perspective of your Consciousness in a totally different world, in a totally different universe.
• Bashar (Meditation): Breathe in and out in the cosmic way that God breathes in and out, to constantly shift and manifest. Know that you are a reflection of the Light of All That Is. In that Light, as you breathe, you experience unconditional love. There is no judgment, no blame, no recrimination. There is only understanding, only learning, only knowledge, only encouragement, only support. There is All That Is, and you, because you are All That Is experiencing itself as you, the unique archetypal presentation that you are, the unique archetypal presentation that you call God, Goddess, All That Is, by whatever name you choose, because it’s all the same, it’s all the Light, it’s all the unconditional love that is your Birthright, that you are made from.
• Bashar (Meditation): Breathe in, breathe out. Going to zero, going to one, creating the void, creating everything, creating the nothing, creating the all. Breathe in, breathe out. Breathe in the Light, breathe out the Light. The dissolution and the crystallization, the melting and the solidification, the gathering and the projection, the forming and the experience. The inner and the outer. Breathe in, breathe out. You are an engine of change. You create time and space for your own purposes of growth and Discovery. You are an engine of change.
• Bashar (Meditation): Express the fundamental reflection and archetype that you are through all of the agreements and challenges that you arranged for yourself to know yourself in all the ways you can. Just as All That Is is also knowing itself through all the ways it can, for you are All That Is knowing itself as all the ways you are. Breathe in, breathe out. Be the Light, be the dark. Be the positive, be the negative, be the neutral in between. Be the Trinity. Be the balance point. Be the gray between the black and the white. Be the yin-yang symbol that contains a drop of each in the other. Be the you that you are, the unique manifestation of All That Is, of God, Goddess, of Jehovah, of Allah, of Wakantanka, of Tetragrammaton, of the I Am That I Am. I Am That I Am. I Am That I Am.
• Bashar (Meditation): Be the existence in the now, the eternity and infinity. Be here, be now. Breathe in, breathe out. Be the Light and the dark. Be all that you are. Be the unconditional love vibration. Be connected, be integrated. Fear not. Face the challenges with excitement. Face the challenges with the understanding that this is your agreement coming to life, that this is your opportunity to change, to expand, to experience yourself as the unique archetypal representation and projection of All That Is. The you that you are. Face all challenges in that way, and you will grow and experience more of the unconditional love of All That Is that supports you on your exploration and experience of yourself, of your journey, of your path.
• Bashar (Meditation): Dream the dream that you are, and be Lucid in the Light. Our unconditional love to you. Continue to breathe in and out.
