Although you perceive yourself as distinct single beings separate from your surroundings and within a reality, we again remind you that this is a self-created apparency.

Perhaps you can say, in fact, the reality exists within you. Although there is the apparency of all these separate ideas, everything fundamentally, foundationally, is all one thing—many facets of one expression, many aspects of one event. By the immutable nature and fact that this is one unbroken, continuous, singular event, everything within that one event that you call all your reality is interwoven. In that sense, what you call coincidence is not accident or accidental, but it is all of the various incidences occurring at the same time—same co-incidence, incidences, coincidence.

Everything is all one expression, everything is related to everything else.

From your point of view, there may be varying degrees of significance to you of any particular meaning; however, from the overall point of view, everything is all one thing. Because the definition of synchronicity is that everything is all one thing and interwoven expression, everything is synchronicity itself—everything, no matter what. Therefore, synchronicity, the interwovenness of all creation, is in a sense you may say the rule, not the exception, within it.

Your experience of this synchronicity—of everything as belonging, of everything as having a reason, of everything as reinforcing your point of view—will depend solely on your particular choice of interpretation. The only thing that you need to do to realize positive synchronicity, which is a positive outcome and perhaps an outcome you say you wish in that sense to experience, is very simply to allow yourself to be aware that everything is synchronicity. When you allow yourself access to this awareness, then you allow yourself a tool of realignment in any given moment. For if in a moment you say, “Why is this happening to me?” you are in that sense affirming that your reality is a series of broken events rather than one expression, and therefore you get that effect.

When you say, “Why is this happening to me?” it continues to seem as though it is happening to you. But when you remind yourself that it is happening from you, it is you, and ask yourself how it is of service to you, you then take the synchronicity and, in interpreting it in a positive way, give yourself the opportunities that synchronicity brings. For in every given moment, there is a reason for absolutely everything within your perception—no exceptions, down to the dust on the leaf on the tree. In terms of you needing to be consciously aware of each and every meaning, this is not always so, and this is what I mean by relative degree of significance. Things which may not seem to have a direct, obvious meaning to you do have a direct, obvious meaning to someone else who is also creating through synchronicity the similar circumstance and the similar proximity to the event that you are beholding.

  1. Step 1: Realize that Everything is synchronicity.

So everything fits, everything has a reason, everything is there to be of service.

That will align you to the positive synchronicity in the situation.

  1. Step 2: Act that way.

If you truly say, “I understand that this is synchronicity,” then look at what actions that you can take with integrity because of the circumstance that the synchronicity has delivered to you. Take the very event that you may have before said, “Why is this happening to me?” and now, understanding that it is happening from you, realize that there is something you can do because that circumstance has showed up. There is some action that you can take that you would not have been able to take without that particular circumstance popping up. That is in the same exact instance giving you the opportunity to either get a negative effect with the negative interpretation or a positive effect from the positive interpretation and subsequent positive actions. Therefore, everything is synchronicity. When you interpret that synchronicity through negative means, as though it is happening to you, your experience of that synchronicity will be negative synchronicity. And sometimes, perhaps you can say, one of the ways your society will define the perpetuation of negative synchronicity in your life is with the nomenclature you seem to refer to as “bad luck,” which there is no such thing as. But when you accept synchronicity in that way and in fact then imbue it as a momentum—imbuing it also predicting that perhaps this is what you may continue to expect—you create that negative synchronicity; you create the synchronicity that already exists and experience it through negative terminology. However, you can always turn this around quite simply with a simple reminder that everything is synchronicity; it is there for a reason. Now, when you look for the reason, either it will be immediately obvious because you have given yourself the opportunity to look at it, or it may in that sense not be that obvious. That in and of itself tells you whether the meaning in that moment is relatively significant to you. If you say, “All right, this would seem like a bummer, and I understand it to be synchronicity—what is its positive meaning? What does it mean to me in a positive way?” and that meaning comes along, then you needed to know the specific meaning. But if it does not, that as well is an indication that tells you in that moment that you need not know that specific reason, and perhaps it will become apparent later if you need to know it at all. But the point is, if there is not a meaning forthcoming in a given moment, you need not fixate upon obtaining one. You may understand that is the answer to the question—that the specific meaning of that symbol is not at that moment important to you, or it will be completely obvious. Is this clear? So therefore, you need not struggle with these meanings. They will either be completely apparent and then be of service through you through that apparency, or it will not be that apparent, but you can still align with a positive action to take in that moment, understanding that you know that it has a meaning. Because you create yourself in linear terms whereby you do unroll your knowingness rather than having it all at once; it seems as though you unroll it according to a timeline, according to the particular coincidences current in that moment. There are certain things which simply would not behoove you to know the meaning of, and knowing the meaning of it in that moment would actually be a distraction rather than an aid. So allow that feedback to be complete: completely obvious—is there a meaning? Yes. All right, is there a meaning? No. All right, no meaning—I will keep my eye out in case a meaning pops up, but I will not fixate upon that meaning, for that then locks you into a loop whereby you can create the apparency of negative synchronicity from fixating upon something and again assuming it to be extraneous. Not knowing something is just as meaningful as knowing it. It is not: if I know it, it is perfect; if I do not, I’m flubbing it up, it’s extraneous. No. Your reality is so obvious that if you do not need to know something, that will be completely obvious. And this is not always well understood. If again you feel, “Well, it is something I would wish to know the meaning of,” then maintain as a clear intention, “I intend to discover that meaning,” and move on. Move on meaning: act in that moment from what is available.

But to the degree that you are willing to begin to recognize synchronicity, you then begin to be able to marvel in the splendor of your creatorhood. For you literally do create it down to the subatomic particle, and perhaps you can say even further. The complexity through which you create is, in fact, again, the splendor of the life you call your reality. So therefore, nothing within that reality is extraneous; everything has a reason, everything has a meaning. And if you simply realign to that idea and act that way, everything that we have shared with you simply falls into place. Perhaps you can say in many ways that most of what we have ever shared with you boils down to: number one, everything is synchronicity; and number two, act with integrity on the opportunities that synchronicity brings you. Therefore, you can look at the many different interpretations that you have within your life in any given moment. If you are in that sense interpreting through fear, through anger, through jealousy, through hate, then you are interpreting your reality through negative synchronistic terms. If you interpret your reality through excitement, through joy, through unconditional love, through willingness in that sense to be of service and be served, you are then interpreting your reality through positive synchronous terms. And this is the only change or shift in your perspective from your point of view that then allows you to experience one or the other.

Negative does not mean bad, and positive means good—that is one way to look at it, but they are very general terms. And again, from our perspective, negative is simply the energy of separation, and positive is the energy of integration. In order to remain physical beings, you must maintain some degree of separation, so negative energy is part and parcel of what allows you to experience yourself as discrete and separate beings. So there is nothing wrong with negative, and in fact you could only be experiencing the very reality you are creating right now through the use of that type and style of energy. But what gives you negative or positive experience—negative or positive happenings in your life—can in that sense be altered by your action. For you can in that sense perform separative actions, actions which do not in that sense take into consideration that everything is all one thing, and then get the reinforcement of that idea which you will call negative synchronicity. Or you can simply understand again the oneness, the positive idea, and upon assigning the positive label and the positive interpretation, the positive orientation, you will then perform the positive actions. And again, it is the actions that you perform that will determine what you get—the experience in your physical life. So you need not forsake the negative, and you may find in your synchronous explorations that you will find many other individuals who are exploring negativity. What will allow them to enjoy their explorations and you to enjoy yours is your willingness to validate without condoning, through your own actions, their negativity. They have the right, just as much as you have the right, to experience and explore anything you wish. They have the right to explore negativity, and as you expand you will become more aware of both. But if you allow the awareness of negativity to simply be through the experience of others and allow the awareness of positivity to be your direct experience—well, why not? That certainly is an option, and many of you are beginning in that sense to delve into this idea.

Therefore, you may understand that doing what excites you the most from what is available in any given moment and acting on that excitement with integrity is, in one sense, you may say, the ultimate acknowledgment of positive synchronicity and the ultimate acknowledgment of your willingness to act on that synchronicity. And nice touch—have a good time along the way. For do understand that you do not have, from this moment forward, to continue to experience misery in your life. That also, being an emotion, is the result of a belief that you hold. And your willingness to use your emotions—not deny them, not attempt to escape them, which is impossible as you stand right now—but use them to trace back the belief will allow you in that sense to transform that same belief and therefore the effect of that belief, the so-called misery. Now understand also that what you call misery, many times, also is simply the choice, perhaps unconsciously but no less a choice, of in that moment negative interpretation. And you may experience what you call sadness or misery simply by, in a given moment, interpreting according to negative means—interpreting things through, in that sense, a negative perspective. That belief that a negative thing can manifest in your life can, in and of itself, bring along the feeling that you call misery. But your willingness to realign in a given moment, reassign that everything is synchronicity and perhaps this is not the one exception in the universe, will allow you in that moment to do something different. It is when in the similar situation you do the same thing that that similar situation has the same effect or you have the same experience from it. But the moment you do one thing differently, even if you’ve already interpreted it negatively, you cannot—can not—get the same effect. It is impossible. It is not the interpretation that gives you the experiential effect in your life; the interpretation may give you the emotion, but what gives you the experience in your life is the perspective that you act from—is the perspective that you move or do from. So even if you initially, through perhaps old habits if you will, interpret something as negative, if you do not act in that moment—if you allow yourself to remind yourself, “Everything is synchronicity again. Perhaps this is not the only exception. Perhaps this is synchronicity too. Initially I had assigned it a negative label, and I can see how I was about to do something that would definitely yield a negative effect. However, I am now, in reminding myself that this is also synchronicity, searching other options before I act. What can I do that would be positive? In my imagination, what would the preferred me do—not the me who just negatively interpreted this and was then about to react from that negative interpretation, but the preferred me who did not even interpret it that way to begin with?” Use your imagination along with the concept of synchronicity. Bring forth the referential preferential you—the preferred you in your imagination—and hand the situation over. Understanding that that preferred you, that new you so to speak, is looking at it as synchronicity, watch what that you does. Do that new thing rather than the quote-unquote old approach, and you cannot help—no matter what—but get a positive result across the board. Simply, there is no such thing as an accident, which is something that was not meant to be. There may be the idea of having a particular intention and having that intention not quite play out the way that you would have perceived that it would, and then you label it accidental. But ultimately, everything is coincidence—incidences occurring at the same time, interwoven—and one thing has absolutely everything to do with everything else; nothing is unrelated. So therefore, it is no accident in that way that you are here this evening of your time interacting with us in this way. It is no accident whatever it is that you will do next when you leave this interaction. Everything has a reason. Allow yourself to begin to be aware of the reasons where and when they present themselves. And again, if it is not completely obvious, do not create paralysis, but continue to move. Continue to move with excitement; continue to move with the knowledge that even though I do not know the meaning, I am reminded that this is synchronicity, and therefore it is an opportunity—a blessing in disguise.

Question

Asker

You were just talking about blessings in disguise, I’ve been having a really hard time the last couple of months, peeling away a lot of layers of hurt and anger, and I’ve had a lot of physical difficulties. I’ve had headaches, I’ve had intestinal gripes, and I’ve been getting really annoyed at this whole process, but I’m beginning to see how it served me.

And it’s come all the way back to two words, and one of them—one time you said the opposite of love is not hate but guilt. Yes, total self-invalidation. What about shame? Does shame similar—a similar expression?

Asker
Elan
Elan
It is, in that sense, in general, not the idea that you are aware that you have done something that you no longer prefer only, but that you have done something that you no longer prefer and are in full judgment of yourself about it. So in a sense, for this purpose, they are interchangeable terms. But the idea is this: once you have done something, understood and realized it is not something that you any longer wish to do, that can be, in and of itself, the end of the process. Your resolve—“I will no longer do this,” particularly knowing how it then has you feeling—will give you at some point perhaps an opportunity to create similar circumstances whereby you will have the opportunity to do that thing again and then the opportunity to subsequently choose not to do it. Proceed.
Asker
I have one more question. We’re planning to take a trip from Calgary, Canada, down to San Francisco from July 8th to about the 24th. Are there going to be any earthquakes? I’ve been listening to a lot of predictions lately coming up for this summer. Will there be anything from Canada down to San Francisco and the California coast within that time period that we should not go?
Asker
Elan
Elan
From our particular understanding right now—and do understand that this can change—that will be a relatively quiet period.
Asker
And I have one more question. A while back, it’s taken me a long time to ask you about this because I wasn’t sure. Well, do understand it is the perfect time, but do proceed. About three months ago, back before Christmas, I woke up in the middle of the night, and there was this bright white light in the room with me. I felt like I remembered what you said about anytime I hear something or see something to open my eyes this time and see what I saw. The white light just stayed there; it didn’t have any particular form. It was about three feet long and about a foot wide, and I felt very safe with the light. But from my waist down, it felt like I was totally paralyzed—tingling and electrified—and I couldn’t move at all. Was there a reason to be needing to move?
Asker
Elan
Elan
No.
Asker
Oh. Well, maybe I was trying to stay in the situation and run away at the same time. That’s what it felt like. And so I watched it—it had to be for about ten minutes—and I thought, “Well, I’ll shut my eyes and see if it’s still there.” And when I shut my eyes, I could see Zeta faces with the black eyes, all in front of my face. And when I opened them, it’s like all these little heads were looking at me, right in my face, about six inches away, but very friendly. I mean, they seemed like I had invited them there or something. And which I would like—I intend to do someday—I would really like to be able to reach out and invite them instead of just being so scared and hoping they won’t show up when I can’t handle it kind of thing. Was that something that I just created in my higher self to test my own self to see if I was ready yet?
Asker
Elan
Elan
Well, it was a co-creation between you and them. Therefore, it would be perhaps you can say inaccurate to say that they were not involved. But in many ways, perhaps you would define it as being more of a mental projection than a physical presence. So in that sense, that is their form of allowing you to get your little toe wet.
Asker
How did they know that this was the time to do this? When I’m dreaming, I remember in my dream I was concentrating on doing something very hard, and there was a huge head of a dog right next to me snarling and growling. And I remember thinking to myself, “I can’t do this if you’re watching me; I have to be by myself.” And that’s when I woke up and I saw the white light and all the little faces. So I just wondered, how am I attracting them to me?
Asker
Elan
Elan
Well, it is a co-creation of timing. It is subsequently yours and their timing at the same time that it occurs. The dog in the dream, which is very strongly the symbol of service itself, in a sense was nudging you in that direction—a wakeup call of sorts.
Asker
Okay, thank you very much.
Asker
Elan
Elan
And to you, cave dweller, thank you. Happy birthday.
Asker
Oh, on some level, and you all as well.
Asker
Asker
Okay, all right. Um, I have some—a small example of positive-negative synchronicity.
Asker
Elan
Elan
Oh, no example too small.
Asker
Yeah, right. But it’s interesting because I got in my truck tonight and I turned the lights on and they didn’t come on. I’ve been driving around with a single headlight for the past week or so, you know, and I thought, “Oh God, I’m not supposed to go tonight, or this is some sort of message to me that I should stay at home.” But as I turned the high beams on, one single light would come on as a high beam. So I continued to drive here, and I decided to change it into more of a positive idea—that I’m a single bright light, and I’ll take it at that and I’ll get it fixed.
Asker
Elan
Elan
So perhaps your perseverance was part of the point as well. Not allowing your external reality to talk you out of it, and remaining at all times enlightened.
Asker
Yeah.
Asker
Asker
Um, I have a few question comments—allow us to confine it to one or two and then we will return. Okay, proceed. Well, um, it’s about the birth experience that I’ve experienced in the past few weeks.
Asker
Elan
Elan
Oh, and it was a rebirth.
Asker
Rebirth, thank you. And I’m—the sharing is, of course, too much to share at this point right now, but it was a beautiful experience, and I was blown away by the Christ-like spirit that was there.
Asker
Elan
Elan
Well, so to speak, you are an expression—each and every one of you—of that life. I know therefore its brilliance cannot overcome you; it simply illuminates more of yourself. And again, I remind you that that individual did not come down and say anything about “Follow me and everyone else is in the garbage.” No, he said, “You are all sons and daughters of God as well. I am simply a living example, and should you choose to embody that, so will you be.” Do proceed.
Asker
That’s exactly what I got. Well, thank you. Did not mean to rain on the parade.
Asker
Elan
Elan
No, no.
Asker
That’s what I definitely read, you know. As I was saying, I am Christ, you know, basically. I don’t live in Waco, Texas, but I am—I was saying that.
Asker
Elan
Elan
Well, the idea is you need not say it and then exclude that everyone else is as well. One of the fullest expressions of understanding the Christ within each and every individual is the willingness to reflect that Christ in each and every individual. One of the—shall I say—part and parcel, telltale signs of any true master is that they are only willing to treat you as a master as well, not take your power. For a master needs no power; they understand they have their own power. So a true master will be the first to reflect back to you that you are a master as well, thereby enabling your headlight to become a beacon as well. So all of us here are the second coming, and that is what we have shared—that it would not be through a single individual but the emergence of that spirit, which was the purpose of what you call the life of Jesus, within each and every individual. And one of the expressions, paradoxically, of this emergence in each and every individual is the willingness to accept every other individual’s pace and timing, which may in that sense also mean accepting those who choose not to express any portion of that and remain completely steeped in negativity. That is their choice. Your job, so to speak, is not to change anyone’s mind; it is to simply live what you know to be true and attract the individuals who will also benefit from that, and then hand them the whole thing—not a withhold, not putting them in a dependent situation.
Asker
And along those lines, I had visions of the Earth and far, far away I saw the Earth. I saw this moving blue veil around the Earth; it was a protective veil.
Asker
Elan
Elan
Well, it is the electromagnetic field of the Earth. It need not be thought of in terms of protection from the perspective that you need to be protected, since there is no outside—there is nothing out there to protect yourself from. And the mentality of setting up a protection is the same thing as setting up the attack. Remember, you are all one thing. There is not a protection in here and an attack out here; everything’s within you. So setting up protection is the same as saying, “I believe an attack is imminent.”
Asker
Yes, yes, I say protection but—it’s understood, choice of word. Yeah, simply utilizing the advantage of bringing that up. And I became aware and concluded that I am the Earth, that I am such a part of Mother Earth, and that we all are, and that Christ Consciousness exists in the embodiment of the Earth.
Asker
Elan
Elan
Absolutely. And it was beautiful. It also will seem to exist enveloping the Earth as well. What you call your mass consciousness will in that sense seem to be both enveloping the Earth and at the same time encompassing it and within it—one expression. Every planetary body, no matter where, no matter when, is in some way linked to consciousness. There is no such thing as a completely unconscious planetary body. They are expressions of consciousness, different definitions than what you define yourself to be. But understand again, from our perspective, everything is consciousness—different densities or densifications, but consciousness no less, down to a rock.
Asker
Right, a rock. And it’s interesting how Kim and I asked for assistance, with many others to be there, and I sensed that there was someone missing, and I had to truly find that missing part, and it dawned on me—it was Christ.
Asker
Elan
Elan
Well, Jesus the man? No, no, no—it is the Christ within you. In a sense, you may say perhaps more appropriately, it is you factor yourself in—then nothing will ever be missing.
Asker
That’s really fun, that’s really interesting. Oh, thank you, it’s beautiful. And then real quick, I—your presence as a son presence there was very moving, and it was a celebration, and I’m still dabbling around as far as answers on how they were coming. They were coming in curiosity to see the newborn, and I’m not real clear about that, but I accepted it as a newborn. I’m not sure, but that’s how I accepted it, and also what according to what happened after that, but that was beautiful—it was very close to being physical to me, and we were flying at that point. And what was happening?
Asker
Elan
Elan
Well, you have just told we were flying. You are in that sense tapping into what you would call probable futures that can become definite futures if you should in that way choose that future. Understand again that there are an infinite number of probable futures, and it is not so much “what is going to happen”—what is the future—but which one will you choose through your interpretations and subsequent actions?
Asker
Okay. Then when Kim left the room and I was there alone, all the beings had left, it was dark, I felt the grounding of Earth again, which was a beautiful experience, and realizing that I had come home. And then all of a sudden I felt a presence come in the room to my lower, towards my feet, and I came up with “Tia,” which are some sort of female essence, and I felt like she was there just to say thank you very quickly for my participation in the birth. So what is that?
Asker
Elan
Elan
The idea that will be in that sense most useful is to understand that conceptually, no matter what you experienced, what you created was a birth within your present physical self. Use that newness, use that reborn freshness in the actions of your life from this point forward, and then you will be creating through your life, through your deeds, the actions that will reflect the vibration that will attract you to that literal future. For now, that will do.
Asker
Okay. Is that on? Yes. All right, I really understand all of it—bring it back home, as you say.
Asker
Elan
Elan
Yeah. Although it is all well and good, perhaps a bit fun, perhaps a bit romantic to explore the heavens through your consciousness, as we have always shared—keep your feet on the ground. Bring it here. Do not theorize about a heaven to go to; create that heaven on the earth with your feet firmly on the ground.
Asker
That’s exactly what has happened, and that is what will continue to happen if you continue to allow it. Yes. And it’s been beautiful. I feel empowered; I feel it’s action—I need action, I want to take action, I’m really ready to go and to move, and it has been so balanced and smooth.
Asker
Elan
Elan
All right. A quick review then. If a circumstance should come along from this point forward which would seem to not jive with the new you, what will be your new attitude based on what you have learned in this interaction?
Asker
Nothing can defeat me, if that’s how I used to look at it. How about everything is synchronicity?
Asker
Elan
Elan
Exactly. “This is perhaps not the only exception, therefore I will act upon this opportunity that synchronicity has brought me.” I don’t see how negative synchronicity can be in my life anymore. All right, then it will not, or it will not have that effect. And any effects that you have gotten from negative actions in the quote-unquote past, now that you are willing to even interpret those effects as positive, changes them—turns them right around. From this point forward, you create a new momentum.
