Expressing Your Beliefs

All belief systems carry along with them their own built-in set of logic, their own built-in set of evidence and support.

For all beliefs are a complete kit. They bring along with them the reality that would seem to correspond with that belief.

Beliefs are a filtering system through which you both express and receive your reality.

Therefore, you:

• create according to your beliefs
• perceive according to your beliefs

This is because of that self-perpetuating system of logic and evidence that all belief systems contain within them.

Your beliefs lead to your emotions. Your emotions lead to your thinking or thought patterns.

The triad of belief, emotion, and thought are a prism which is the underlying foundation for your actions.

In a physical universe, your actions ultimately create physically the reality.

So though the actions are the prime movers of the reality itself, the foundational belief system sets up the tone of those actions, those thoughts, those emotions.

This is quite useful because you can always trace backward from your actions, thoughts, or feelings, what you must believe in any given moment in order to feel, think, and act that way. Therefore, your beliefs or your belief systems are always right at your disposal, are always right there for your examination. Now that you understand the feedback that you can use to trace back to those beliefs, we have also shared the idea that you can only change a belief once you first will own that belief, once you first will fully acknowledge that that is the belief that you are expressing.

Now perhaps this brings us very nicely to the point, perhaps you can say, of this particular introduction this evening. Now that you do foundationally understand in whatever version you have created what I have just shared, I am now allowed by you, by your society, to expand this a bit further and perhaps you can say add a very simple fact, but in its simplicity and therefore its accessibility, it provides an understanding to allow you once again a bit more effectively to create the life according to the beliefs that you prefer rather than the beliefs that perhaps you have bought into, perhaps you can say on faith or trust that everyone knows that’s the way it is. For that is one of the ways that you buy into beliefs in your reality: you get a sense that, oh, everyone knows that, and then you, not wishing to be left out, will then express that, not looking at is it really rational, but that is what everyone seems to believe. And this is how societally, consensually, many of you co-create agreements and therefore have similar experience due to, shall I say, your alignment of beliefs with each other.

However, you are always the only creator of your reality, and therefore your beliefs are always an expression of who you are being in any given moment. Now here is, perhaps you can say, the expansion that we wish to share. First of all, understand that what you refer to as God, we refer to as All-That-Is. That is simply an all-inclusive term; it leaves nothing out. It is therefore from our perspective quite accurate. You are an expression of All-That-Is, and therefore in being a facet of All-That-Is, you contain it all. Nothing is left out of who you are. Now you may choose to not be aware of many things as a physical being, but as a soul, as an oversoul, you are consciously aware of the fact that you contain it all. Not that you are within a reality, but that literally the reality is within you. Perhaps you can say similar to what you call a dream, though it is quite real by your own definitions.

Understanding that you are an expression of All-That-Is leads to the understanding that there is no outside; everything is within you, not one exception. Therefore, when you talk about “I have this particular belief,” no matter what that belief is, it is not completely accurate to say “I have this belief and the opposite belief I do not have.” Now, quite technically speaking, you contain everything, and therefore you contain every belief and its reciprocal. If you say, for instance, “I believe I deserve a life of joy,” it is also accurate to say that you believe that you do not deserve a life of joy. To say you simply only believe one experientially in your life is simply not accurate or honest. Now perhaps you may have a propensity of expressing one of those beliefs more, shall I say, linearly, more, shall I say, constantly, but in order for you to even understand or perceive something, you must already contain it. So whatever belief you state that you have, to even understand that there is an opposite belief, to even have any concept of any belief, you must also contain that belief as well, though you may not be expressing it.

And this is perhaps, again, one of the points. When you say, “I believe this and I get this effect in my life,” you also contain the reciprocal belief. The reason you are getting the effect of any belief is that you are expressing that belief, and again, as physical beings, ultimately through the actions of your life, you are acting like a person with that particular belief. When you act like a person with a particular belief, you still contain the opposite belief; otherwise, you would have an inability to even be conscious that another belief even exists.

So understanding that you contain all beliefs may at first seem to make things more confusing, but ultimately what it does is hand you back your power to choose. For you need not acquire a new preferred belief; you already contain all beliefs. Why you have been getting the effect from an unpreferred belief is because you have been acting like a person with the unpreferred belief, expressing the unpreferred belief through your actions. This does not mean you do not contain the preferred belief; your ability to even state a preferred belief tells you you must contain it. You can make sense of nothing unless you first contain it. So it is not a matter of getting rid of beliefs that no longer serve you and acquiring ones that do; no, that is not accurate, and that invalidates your connection to All-That-Is and your role as Creator. It is that you contain all beliefs, and in a given moment, you are expressing one of those beliefs.

Now why this gives you back your power is because if you are expressing a belief you no longer prefer, you can choose in that sense to allow it to seem to overwhelm you and do nothing about it, or an understanding: wait a minute, you may say to yourself, I am expressing a belief that I do not prefer; however, I can conceive of the belief that I do prefer. I contain both beliefs; they are both equally accessible. I am about to perform an action that is consistent with the old unpreferred belief. So if I am to choose the new preferred belief, what would a person with that new preferred belief do in this exact same situation? Your willingness to dialogue and be honest with yourself and remind yourself that you contain both beliefs, and then your willingness to extrapolate what one would do with the preferred belief, hands you a new set of actions. Actions are the prime movers, and when you compare the actions of what a person with the unpreferred belief would do to the actions of what a person with a preferred belief would do, it will not be too difficult to choose the actions of the preferred belief.

Now that you are allowing yourself to be privy to the fact that there are alternatives, the only thing that makes your life automatic is the assumption, is the belief that it is automatic. Is the belief that you exist within a reality and are helpless in that sense to move that reality? You are the reality; the reality is within you. One of the reasons, one of the purposes for expressing yourself in this way, is to experience what it feels like to seem that you are within a reality. But ultimately, as you in that sense expand and grow, and ultimately when you transform physically as you say die, it will be quite evident that the reality that you used to believe that you existed within exists within you. So does all what you’d consider to be the props, all the ideologies, all the thoughts, the emotions, all the beliefs—you contain them all. You already create through the aforementioned mechanism: belief, emotion, thought, and action. Therefore, to change your life according to preference is simply a matter of doing what you already have become expert at, though not automatically.

What you call habit in your society is generally defined by individuals to be an action that you repetitively perform unknowingly, unconsciously, automatically. But what this definition allows is to understand that the moment you know you have a habit, you no longer have it. If you know you have a habit, then it is no longer automatic; then it is no longer something you are doing unknowingly. The moment you acknowledge that you know you have it, from that point forward, it is a choice and no longer a habit. What you call habits are not as automatic as you might assume; you perpetuate through choice what you call habitual ritual. Therefore, you can cease to do so; you can choose a new, and you can express beliefs that you just as well contain. Therefore, there is nothing to acquire, there is no effort to be had, there is nothing to struggle for, and again, reciprocally, nothing to get rid of. It is a matter of what you will emphasize. Since you contain all beliefs, which beliefs you are expressing in any given moment are the ones that you are emphasizing. When you emphasize one belief, when you express that belief, its reciprocal, its opposite belief, no longer seems to have any relevance to who you are, but it still exists within you; it is just that you are expressing that particular belief in that particular moment.

So therefore, if you say “I deserve” and that is a belief of mine, and you understand well, from time to time perhaps I do express the fact that I do not deserve, you can take the pressure off of yourself to say, well I believe I deserve and therefore I do not contain the belief that I do not, or I believe that I do not deserve and therefore do not contain the belief that I do. You contain both beliefs, and in any given moment are expressing one or the other. Therefore, since that is an active action on your part, always in any given moment, can you choose something else? And do not need effort to simply do what you are already doing, now according to preference. Therefore, be mindful of which belief in any given moment you are expressing.

And when you experience an emotion you label negative, remember, emotions are always a response to a belief. You do not just feel that way; you may say that that is not completely being honest and accurate. Therefore, when you feel a negative emotion, the simple inquisitive line of questioning: what must I, or any person in this moment, believe, with what is in place in my life, to feel this negative way? Your willingness to ask these questions rather than accept the negativity of your reality at face value will allow you to nail down the belief that you are expressing in that moment, and then you can remind yourself that you may now choose to express any other belief by simply extrapolating what you, or a person with a preferred belief, would do in the same situation. Whenever you give yourself the alternative, the actions of the preferred belief will always be far more compelling to choose. For having given yourself the opportunity to see that that is even an option allows you to be who you truly wish to be in any given moment.

Automatic behavior presupposes there are not other options. And when you break down what you must believe to be acting in any given way, and then state the preferred belief, having acknowledged the old unpreferred belief, your imagination is always an expert tool at providing what a person with the preferred belief would do in that situation. Therefore, you always have your model, you always have your blueprint, you always have your template right there with you. By simply asking: all right, I am expressing this unpreferred belief, and I acknowledge that, for understand that that acknowledgement is the only thing that will equalize that belief to all other beliefs. Now I am stating the preferred belief. Now in my imagination, I am projecting what I would do if I really believed the preferred belief. Well, look at that, I would hold my head higher; I would perhaps be a bit kinder; I would perhaps in this situation understand that nothing can harm me, and therefore I have chosen to interact with this circumstance. You will see through your imagination’s eye that the mere posture of the preferred you in your imagination will be different, and your imagination will provide rich, illustrious examples of what you would do in any given situation if you allow it to function in that way rather than in the more typical use your society has employed your imagination for: worst-case scenarios.

Understand your imagination, although it has been perhaps used as a fantasy escape many times, and again as a projector of worst scenario so that you can prepare for the worst, it is also as expert at laying down a blueprint for positive action. You can always extrapolate what a person with a belief would do if you are quiet and honest with yourself. And the more details you are willing to imbue into it, the more you will have a pattern to mimic, and the more you can notice, again, the nuances down to the posture of the preferred you or of a person with that preferred belief. Therefore, understanding that you already contain it all makes your reality simply a matter of conscious choice. You get to choose; it’s up to you. If you choose to do nothing and allow your reality to remain the same, you have made a choice, and you are living that choice, and that is just as valid a choice as anything else.

When you choose a new belief, you need not do so and then forsake the old belief. Forsaking the old belief has the paradoxical result of adding more weight to the old belief by placing attention and judgment upon it. It simply no longer serves you; it obviously has the right and reason to exist for anyone else who might wish to explore it, and furthermore, it allowed you to get to this point, so it was of positive service to you. Your willingness to not forsake your old beliefs and simply choose and act according to your new beliefs, in acknowledgment of the old belief, equalizes all your beliefs and allows you equal access to choose the effects of any belief. When you deny a belief, you give it more weight; you give it more attention; you give yourself more of a propensity to choose the very thing you say you deny. But when you acknowledge it, you equalize everything; you put everything, as you say, on equal footing. Acknowledge your old beliefs, validate them, and choose the new preferred belief. Project and extrapolate what a person with a new belief would do, and in any given situation, hand over that situation to the new preferred you. You will always come up with a positive set of actions, and again, allowing yourself to be privy to any alternative will provide something very compelling and attractive to choose. That now that you have given yourself the advantage of being aware of, will in that sense be obviously more beneficial in its effect and in its outcome. Therefore, take back your power.

No matter what you are doing in your life, you are expressing that power, and if you are assigning importance to external symbols, external people, external relationships in your life, you are simply assigning your power bit by bit to external symbols. That is a belief that has the seeming effect of giving back the evidence of that belief. All beliefs are valid; therefore, it now becomes a matter of what do you want, what do you desire, what do you choose? Acting upon that which excites you, which brings you passion, which brings you joy, with integrity, always can only have a positive outcome for yourself and for everyone else around you. That recognition of integrity is the underlying understanding that everything is an integrated whole; though it may appear to be parts, it is all one expression of an integrated whole, and treating your reality with that respect, treating it with that integrity accordingly, can only, only, only result in beneficial effects for yourself and those around you. Therefore, allowing your excitement to be your gauge, your barometer, and acting upon that with integrity, is in that sense a replacement mode that allows you to express who you are in no uncertain terms immediately.

Already you always choose according to some rationale; in general, it is a self-imposed set of obligation. But if you understand that moving with your passion, joy, and excitement benefits you and benefits the world around you through your creative experience and through the statement of who you are, you will understand that everyone can, as you say, win. Everyone can get, in that sense, what they want. You need not step upon each other in order to get what you want; then it is that not that much fun to relish anyway, having stomped the person in front of you to get there. So you may understand that there is enough to go around. That is a belief, and when you express that belief, you get the evidence. When you express the belief that there is not enough to go around, needless to say, you get that evidence as well. Look, be mindful of the beliefs that you are expressing, and remind yourself, if they are beliefs that you no longer prefer, that you contain the preferred beliefs. No huge effort need be made; simply open and honest dialogue with yourself and who you are and what it is you desire and what it is you wish to create in your life. That is now taking back the power that you have incrementally assigned to your external reality and acting as source, acting already complete, which you are. No matter what, so complete are you that you have the absolute ability to seem completely incomplete. I understand that this is a paradox; it is no less true. And the more helpless you feel in any given moment, the more you are expressing your great power to even be able to feel that disconnected, so inherently connected are you. That, again, what you generally assign to be the negative feeling of loneliness and isolation, is the complete implementation of your great power. You no longer need to express this power in a way that would seem to have a negative effect in your life when you begin to understand that All-That-Is is unconditionally loving. Unconditionally means you cannot lose that love; there are no conditions imposed upon that love. That degree of complete unconditional love is what allows the universe to exist and be whatever it wants to be. If All-That-Is had conditions, there would be very narrow parameters through which creation could express itself, and it is the unconditional love of All-That-Is that allows the infinite multiplicity that you are experiencing. Therefore, afford yourself that same unconditional love.

When you feel judgment, All-That-Is is not judging you; you are. When you feel judgment, others are not having an effect on you with their judgment; you are matching their judgment. You can only feel your version of what anyone else is sharing. That is the degree of your power that always allows you to trace which belief you are expressing, understanding once again that you contain them all. I thank you for your willingness to interact with me in this way; it brings me and members of my society great joy to, in an unconditionally loving way, interact and co-create interactions of this nature with you. For we also then learn, in learning much about you, that much more about ourselves, for we no longer draw such a separation and understand experientially that the reality exists within each of us as well. One of the, perhaps you can say, paradoxes of reality is that this is true for every single individual. Every individual creates their own reality, and in their particular growth, would seem that all the rest of reality is merging onto you. Each and every individual, it seems in a sense like this would not be possible, but this type of paradox where it is not this or that, but ultimately to be accurate it is this and that, both, is an expression of beginning to expand your thinking. You will find more and more of this idea to arise in your reality, where things which formerly have seemed mutually exclusive—well, it’s got to be this or that; it can’t be both—you will begin to understand it is both, and you get to choose.

QA

Asker

What I had seen in the sky on several different occasions? What were they?

Elan

What is your impression if you, in that sense, will be bold and in that sense share with me your understandings? Then perhaps I can go a bit further. I believe I saw extraterrestrial spaceships. Describe one. One was triangular in shape, triangular in that from my vantage point the lights looked like a boomerang that was coming towards me, the lights from the left to the right. There were no blinking lights, no red light, no green light, and it was flying along the coast. I live in New London, so I was walking the beach and I saw it overhead.

How many times in that sense that particular one? Once? Another time I saw a perpendicular like a column of light in the sky in the evening sky, again no flashing lights, there were just lights. I will share is the following: there are, shall I say, many craft that will find themselves, shall I say, in your proximity. Now crafts can literally be in front of your eyes, but because again your beliefs define your perception, may not be completely visible. Therefore, again, there is perhaps you will understand more activity in your sky than has heretofore been imagined. This will also in that sense apply to your instruments as well, as they will only be able to perceive certain craft when those craft are aligned vibrationally to your particular flow of time stream within your reality. What you have perceived at least on one occasion, and this is all I can share right now, would in that sense correspond to one of these craft, is that of assistance.

Asker

Yes, thank you very much.

Elan

And to you.

Asker

Shing, Elon, greetings and to you. A number of us have heard from a number of different sources of some very serious Earth changes predicted and coming along, and I want to ask you about the huge floods that are going on right now in the Midwest of our country and the large earthquake in Japan, oh a week or two ago. Are those I assume tied into the Earth changes, the Earth healing itself?

Elan

Interestingly enough, these types of phenomena have occurred fairly regularly throughout your known history. Now that there has been so much talk of predictions of negative changes, the very same things which have been occurring again somewhat regularly are now interpreted as having new meaning. But you may understand that your Earth is a very dynamic, living Consciousness structure and will express always what you call complete balance. That balance in that sense may require certain releases of energy in various forms, and this is generally what you are perceiving as these phenomena. Now how you interpret these phenomena are again part and parcel and telltale of what you must believe. As we have shared many times, there is no such thing as a prediction of the future, for there is not one future; there is an infinite number of probable futures. And within that plethora of possibilities, there are certain, shall I say, outcomes that are more likely in the energy of a given moment. But the moment an individual is aware of a prediction of one of those possibilities having more momentum, that in and of itself can be enough in that sense to change the outcome of the prediction. Awareness of an idea can always be All-That-Is necessary to transform it. So perhaps I can turn this around in a question to you, and that is: will you accept what you are perceiving as tumultuous climactic phenomena as evidence of a negative transformation? I prefer to believe one moment be a Creator, yes or no?

Asker

Do you mind asking the question again?

Elan

Do you prefer to use your tumultuous climatic phenomena as evidence of negative prediction?

Asker

No.

Elan

Then it has nothing to do with it for you. And again, historical perspective, a little bit of research, you will see that these phenomena are, relatively speaking, cyclical. Now there are symbolic reasons for such occurrences at this distinct, discreet moment, and in general, understanding that specifically there are as many reasons as there are individuals. But in general, you are beginning to see individuals in one form or another to let go of what you would call material objects that keep them anchored in a particular past. For individuals will, in that sense, very often use a past as an excuse to not do what they wish in the present. Now the past may seem through a series of events to lead to the present, but the only time you ever exist is in the present, in the now, and the past has no effect on the now until you say so and act that way and get that effect. So because objects and materiality are one of the ways through what you call mementos and so forth that individuals will anchor themselves to their pasts, many times you will see a collective purging of many of these objects that then allow individuals to, in a more unencumbered way, be here now. Does that make sense?

Asker

Yes, I understand what you’re saying, and I’d like to switch to another question.

Elan

Oh, switch away, okay.

Asker

All of my life, this life, I have been fascinated with the entertainment business. Okay, and I guess the reason I’m bringing this up is I’m wondering, can you give me any comment as to why this is? In some past life, did I for example know Shakespeare or something?

Elan

Well, to some degree you may understand that in what you would call past lives, you have been involved in such arts, and through this attraction, allow that to simply be obvious. But in this life, this is simply not that uncommon that your society will create various folia areas of focus of individuals, and in that sense perhaps you can say in many ways live vicariously through what they symbolically represent to you. Is there something specific through the inspiration that you derive from this that you feel you can do within your reality now?

Asker

Well yes, back to my favorite subject, the water fuel cell. Whenever that comes to reality and to the marketplace, I would hope that interest would help me introduce that new science and technology to this planet and get the benefits thereof.

Elan

Then take, as you say, very seriously. I do not mean that you will not be light about it, that you have made this connection, and when the next step or opportunity to do something comes along, remember this connection that you have made. For one thing can enhance the other, perhaps through what you generally refer to as publicity, but you will find many applications for this besides simply that.

Asker

Okay, one last question. Since Tony isn’t here, let me ask you, where are you exactly right now?

Elan

I am, as you would say, in the general neighborhood upon my scoutcraft, which is about 60 foot in diameter, approximately 40, as you say, feet per side. It is equilateral triangular in nature. What you would call the interior would appear to be a six-sided, for the corners are so to speak walled off. I am in that sense with two other beings which I will not now discuss.

Asker

Okay, that was the question I was going to ask you. Okay, thank you very much.

Elan

And you as well.

Asker

Shing, fale than male. I’m half owner of a two family house, and we’ve been trying to get rid of, sell the house for a number of years. I moved out and it has created a lot of tension in the family because the other owners are my sister and brother-in-law. Just recently I begun to realize, or have realized, how much in a sense benefit I have gained from being the owner of, or half owner of, the house. And what I would like to know is, is there more that I need to learn from that, because I still would like to be free of any legal entanglements to that house?

Elan

Perhaps ultimately what would benefit you is a simple perspective, and that is as follows: in any given set of circumstances in your life, you will always have a multiple number of choices of how to respond. Now one general way that individuals will respond, although there are many versions of this, is “why is this happening to me?” And perhaps in this scenario, from time to time you have felt this. Yes? You may understand that when that perspective is assumed, acting per se like a victim in a reality, you do not exercise in that moment the knowledge that the reality is a reflection of who you are. So therefore, an alternate approach in any situation where an individual may have the propensity to say “why is this happening to me” is to simply substitute the approach: “how is this serving me exactly, exactly the way it is?” All situations, all circumstances, all people are reflections, are messages that in your exploration of your own Consciousness, you are sending yourself. When you say “why me,” you are in that sense allowing a messenger to somehow be extraneous and not then therefore getting any message from the situation. When you ask “how it serves me,” you are allowing that situation to deliver to you the specific message. When you allow a situation to deliver its message, it transforms and changes its face; otherwise it would be extraneous. When you do not allow yourself to get the message, it would seem that the symbol hangs around, but its reason for doing so is to give you the intended message. So from this point forward, asking yourself not only how it serves you, but how it serves you in exactly the form that it’s in, can be All-That-Is necessary to turn the entire thing around. For by allowing the situation that you have created to serve you—and anything that you have created can be of service to you once you allow it to give you that service and derive that service—it no longer has a reason to hang around. Is this applicable in your situation?

Asker

Well, yes and no, because I really feel like this past couple of weeks that is exactly what I’ve done, is looked at it, see how it has served me, and I have seen and you have learned many things.

Elan

Yes. If it therefore still hangs around, there is something else. Not that you need reiterate, reiterate, reiterate. If it still hangs around, that may have been one of the messages, but continue to pursue further how else it is of service to you. What I can share with you from my perception of the situation is that it is something very simple, and that it has something to do with what you would call the relationship of those that you are involved in this endeavor through more than the physical location and physical object of what you call the house itself. So begin to explore in that direction how it is serving you, and then make the conscious decision of how you would now prefer to create it. Maintain how you would prefer to create it as an intention—a clear intention. I intend, for instance, to sell this house. And then allow the feedback of your reality to deliver the messages. Do not harbor or harp upon messages that have already been delivered; continue in that sense to glean the positive from your reality. And again, also emphasize the relationship of those involved.

Asker

And what I am and to you, good day. On the subject of cold fusion or fusion in att testud as they call it, would it be appropriate to say that this will become a valid source of power for us, for those that believe it, or would it be more appropriate to say it is or is not a source of power?

Elan

The idea is that in the form that you are assuming, by the time it would be practical in a mass sense, there will be other more efficient ways of doing so. Now as we have always shared, your Earth, your planet, has an electromagnetic field that is, perhaps you can say for all intents and purposes to the linear way that you create your life, unlimited. And therefore the tapping of that will perhaps be one of the first most constructive applications of that technology. But as you have, so shall I say insightfully pointed out, there are particular individuals who, through their beliefs, will choose to utilize a version of that technology.

Asker

Very good, thank you. And also, is there something you could tell us about the coming vacation that Andrew is taking from this work? It would not be Tracy, or would that any constraints on Andrew?

Elan

Very simple. It is now the time for more doing and less talking. As you do, as you apply, as you be, then if there is necessity for clarification, then in that sense that will be the level that we will continue to function upon from, perhaps you can say, after the next interaction forward. In terms of purely instructional, we have simply, shall I say, communicated the chunk of information that will foundationally assist you, should you so choose to use it in a particular way. Then again, the questions that arise from the application, perhaps you can say in many ways the advanced, shall I say, version of what we are sharing, is what we will choose to interact with you and through this channel if it is to be on that level. Therefore, it is now the time for the taking back of your ability to respond—your response-ability—to do, express the beliefs you prefer to embody.

Asker

All right, yes. Lastly, as I’m not sure when I’ll have a chance to speak to you again, I’d like to express my appreciation for perhaps getting at least one toe into the force density. I’m coming to see where the action is bringing the change, and I want to express my love and appreciation for the…

Elan

Well, I thank you and express my unconditional love for your willingness to interact with me. However, I would be remiss in not reminding you that no thanks are necessary. Any changes that have occurred in your life have been made by you, and therefore thank you for allowing me to function as an elaborate reflection or mirror, and thank you for the choices that you have made that then allow you to walk as a conscious Creator and therefore act equal to us. For we always will see you all as equal to us, and when you treat yourself with that same respect, then it will not be necessary to interact in such a once-removed format as this. We thank you for beginning to be such an example.

Asker

Having stated it in such a way that I had been giving away my power, not that you meant that either, but I was glad that we could share the joy of the creation together.
