Does Your Happiness Depend On The Actions of Others?

Recently I received an email from a dear friend. Included in the email was a humorous, or what appeared to be humorous, commentary from a famous comedian. Perhaps I should say "used to be" humorous rather than "appeared to be" humorous because there was a time when I could appreciate a piece like this. But not now. Right now, with how I feel about life and how I hope others feel, or begin to feel, it didn't occur to me as funny at all. It was full of sentiment about how awful life is and talked in turn about all the reasons, all the people, all the groups, responsible for that feeling. The commentary came across to me as depressing and sad, and I was struck with enormous compassion for the person who wrote it, and the many many people that must be feeling the same way, since this piece seemed to be streaking it's way across the internet via attachment from friends like mine.

I responded to my friend that I was glad he found comfort in this piece, but I hoped that he could see the futility in wallowing in thoughts of self-pity and blame. It was - and is - my hope that ALL people be uplifted and invigorated by life, not defeated by it. We create our own reality. We really really really do. On a mass level, we co-create our joint reality through the additive thoughts, beliefs, and actions of each of us individually. Wallowing in blame and pity only brings more experiences that give us cause to blame and feel sorry for ourselves. That's an endless cycle, and the cycle is speeding up. At some point that cycle has to be stopped, and the only one who can stop it is each one of us.

Difficult to do? It can be. Because it means we have to give up trying to get our validation, appreciation, love, and/or energy from other people and other things. Instead we have to find those things within ourselves. It always - always - is available from within. We never need to get it from another. I was reminded of this in reading John Cali's weekly message from Spirit, which turns out to be a re-post of a message they provided two years ago. Yet it's every bit as meaningful today. May YOU be uplifted by life and not defeated by it!

Attachment

In his brilliant best-selling book, Illusions, Richard Bach said "We teach best what we most need to learn." I had a minor, but painful, reminder of this recently.

John Cali

Spirit and I are forever telling people it doesn't matter what other people think or say about you, especially if it's critical or destructive. All that matters is what you think of yourself.

The details of my painful experience don't matter. What does matter is I allowed myself to get upset by a remark about my channelling from someone I love and respect. It threw me into an emotional downward spiral for about half a day.

Then I realized the remark had nothing to do with me. I also realized I had an unhealthy attachment to what this dear person thought of me. Not a good place to be at!

Here's Spirit.

Spirit

We understand how easy it is for humans to become attached to the things of your physical world -- the people, the relationships, the possessions, etc.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with enjoying these things, with taking pleasure in them. But it's far too easy to cross over that line between enjoyment and attachment. This creates huge problems for so many of you. And it often throws you into "an emotional downward spiral," in John's words.

We certainly do not advocate you remove yourselves from the world around you. Nor do we want to see you abandon that world, as some of you try to do in your own particular ways.

There is no need to abandon your physical life and all the people and experiences it holds for you. In fact, you cannot abandon physical life -- it's not an option. Unless, of course, you choose to leave your physical bodies.

Friends, life on Planet Earth was intended by your higher selves to be a joyful experience. Certainly not without its challenges and opportunities for growth. But you, as your higher selves, knew there would be those challenges and opportunities -- that's one of the reasons you chose to reincarnate to begin with.

Life is a big game you've chosen to play. It's supposed to be fun. That's what games are all about -- fun!

When you remember that -- when you remember who you are -- then life becomes easy and almost effortless.

Where you often go astray is when you take life so seriously. You just drag your bodies out of bed in the morning, dreading yet another day of joyless living.

It does not have to be that way. You were never meant to be so attached to this life that it drags you down, as John described in his experience.

If you will take the time to reflect on your attachments (which are always unhealthy), you will start to see them clearly. You will realize they are robbing you of your birthright -- joy.

Joy is what it's all about. When you can find your joy within yourselves in every present moment, and know you are your only true source of joy, you will then feel such an incredible sense of relief and release. You will be free again.

Free to enjoy your lives, your relationships, your possessions. Free to enjoy them fully and passionately. But without depending on them for your happiness. Even if you lost them all, you know your true and only source of happiness is within you.

Attachment to the world around you drags you from your happiness, your joy. When you seek happiness within you will empower yourselves to create and live the most joyous, abundant lives you have ever known.

Dying to Be Me

If you haven't heard about the author of this new book (due out in early 2012) called "Dying to Be Me", it's an amazing story of and by a delightful gal, Anita Moorjani. Anita had end-stage Hodgkin's Lymphoma. She was in the hospital, and in a coma. Her organs were shutting down and her doctors told her family she had, at most, 36 hours to live.

During this time, Anita experienced "going beyond the veil", what many call a "Near Death Experience." Anita's story is a little different than other NDEs though, and as powerful as those other stories are (and they are!), hers is unique. Through this experience she learned so much in such a seemingly short time, and she's been retelling the story ever since. In essence, she had to "die" to discover who she really was. Then she "came back" to live her life that way.

Here, in an interview with Lilou Mace posted to Youtube, is Anita's story in her own words.



Imagine this: Here is a gal who fully recovered - in a very short time - from a disease that had wracked her entire body, and she recovered with no assistance from the medical profession, even though they insisted on continuing to treat her, because, after all, the cancer cells had to be there - they thought - they just couldn't find them! Not only that, but she had this amazing experience in another dimension. Then she remembered enough of that experience to come back and tell the rest of us about it. On top of all that, she is extremely articulate about what she learned, and offers incredibly profound conclusions about all of it. And as if that weren't enough, she is living the very life that she expounds, day by day, moment by moment. If there were a better example of what's possible for human beings, I'd be hard pressed to know who it is!

From another posted interview Anita talks about the concept of unconditional love:

NDERF: Can you tell me, how does one become unconditionally loving in a world that is not always loving?

First of all, remember that I feel that the universe is only a reflection of me. So the unconditional love is not extended out to the world (or universe), it is unconditional love that I extend inwardly, towards myself! Each day, I learn to love myself unconditionally.

Also, let me explain that there is a difference between “being loving” and “being love”.

Being loving means giving love to another whether you have any for yourself or not. It means giving what you yourself may or may not even have to give. This type of giving of love can eventually drain you, because we don't always have a limitless supply. And then we look to the other to replenish our pool of love, and if it is not forthcoming, we stop being loving ourselves, because we are exhausted.

Being love, on the other hand, means loving myself uncondi-tionally so that it overflows, and anyone and everyone around me just becomes an automatic recipient of my love. The more I love myself, the more it flows out to others. It almost feels like being a vessel for love to flow through. When I am being love, I don't need people to behave a certain way in order for them to be a recipient of my love. They are automatically getting my love as a result of me loving myself. So to stop being love, to me, means to stop loving myself. Hence, I will not stop being love on account of another.

NDERF: So how would you suggest someone elevate their own loving energy?

I feel it’s my self-dialogue that either elevates or diminishes the energy I radiate outwards. When my inner dialogue turned against me, over time, it depleted my energy, and caused a downward spiral in my external circumstances. I was always really, really positive on the outside, effervescent, loving, etc. etc. and still my world was crumbling around me, and I was getting depleted, and sicker and sicker.

Sometimes, when we see someone who is really positive and effervescent and kind, yet their lives are crumbling around them we may think “see, this being positive thing doesn’t work”. But see, here’s the thing. WE DON’T KNOW that person’s own inner dialogue. We don¹t know what they are telling themselves, inside their own heads, day in and day out.

Remember, I am not advocating “thinking positive” in a Pollyanna-ish sort of way. “Thinking positive” can be tiring, and to some people it can mean “suppressing” the negative stuff that happens. And it ends up being more draining.

I am talking about my own mental dialogue to myself. What am I telling myself, day in and day out inside my head. I feel it's so very important not to have judgment and fear in my own mental dialogues to myself. When our own inner dialogue is telling us we are safe, unconditionally loved, accepted, we than radiate this energy outwards and change our external world accordingly.
I also think it is very important to see perfection in the moment. The present moment is very powerful. Each moment holds promise, and each moment can be a turning point for the rest of your life.

I am often misunderstood when I say that each moment is perfect. And that everything is perfect. People are afraid of seeing perfection in a situation that is not of their liking, thinking that seeing perfection means not changing it. To me, seeing perfection does not mean keeping the situation static. It means seeing perfection in exactly where you are in your journey right now, no matter where that may be. Seeing perfection in the journey. Seeing perfection in the becoming. Seeing perfection in the value of the mistakes as you are becoming. Seeing perfection in the moment, wherever in the journey that moment might be. That is seeing perfection.

Power of a Fleeting Thought

When I think about some of the amazing miracles and synchronicities in my life, I'm reminded that in most cases I didn't spend a lot of time on what I wanted, I simply decided to have it (be it, or do it) and let it go at that. The Arcturian Circle through Debbie at Our Return Home had some interesting insight into just that perspective of manifestation. A lesson for all of us, to be sure!

Power of a Fleeting Thought

You are powerful creators, and we want to help you understand how powerful you are. We also want to assist you in understanding the nuances involved in creating. They seem to be very subtle, but we can assure you they are powerful!

Let us begin.

We would like you to think about a small body of water, a lake or a pool. It really does not matter. Just envision a body of water with two people at opposite ends of this body of water. Each individual is creating powerful waves, the waves are heading for the middle of the pool or lake and will eventually crash into each other. What happens when they crash into each other? They stop. There may be some reverberating waves that occur, but the original waves stop when their power is met by another equal power. If one wave is a little bit stronger then the other wave, it will overcome the other wave and move on, but in a diminished form.

Now imagine the same body of water, and one individual is creating one very small wave at one end of the body of water. You can watch it, and it goes on forever or until it reaches the end of the body of water.

We have asked you to envision this so that we can help you to understand how the power of your thoughts work and why a small, fleeting thought can be more powerful then many larger, repetitive thoughts.

Many of you, when you are concerned about something that is very important to you, will think about it all the time. You have recurring thoughts about it, what it will be like when it happens, how you will react and what you will do when it happens and how you really do not want it to happen. Because you are aware to some extent of the power of your thoughts, you will also remind yourself that you should only be thinking about those things you want to create. So you then begin thinking about what you want from this situation, what you want to happen. This process occupies a great deal of your energy and your time.

Thinking repetitive, opposing thoughts is very similar to the example of the two waves that are coming at each other. When you think about what you want and what you do not want at the same time with equal force and energy, those opposing thoughts will stop each other. If one side has a little bit more force than the other, the energy will begin to materialize but more slowly than one deliberate thought without opposing force.

A very simple, fleeting thought that is not opposed will manifest very rapidly just like the small wave made it to the other side of the body of water. It was a very small wave, but there was nothing in the way to stop it or slow it down.

We feel that this illustration will be very powerful when you apply the underlying truth to your daily life. Many of you expend lots of energy thinking, re-thinking and thinking again about a situation, person or experience. You roll it over and over again in your mind. You think about what you do not want, and you also think about what you do want. You are creating and recreating at the same time. You are thinking about one thing, and then you are thinking opposing thoughts about this one thing. You know you do this, but because it is something that is very important you continue to do it. You have been taught that you must put all your energy and effort into something that is very important to you.

We ask you to re-think that premise. We want you to be more relaxed and to have more energy within your bodies and minds for you. Repetitive thinking is a waste of time and energy. You have much more important things to do than to dwell on the same thought over and over again. We also understand that many of you do this type of repetitive thinking because it has become a habit and is embedded into your cellular memory as a way of doing. We assure you that you can reprogram your cellular memory if you have clear focus and desire to do so.

We ask that you set an intention right now that you will release the need for repetitive thinking. Set one very clear and strong intention and then let it go. We then suggest that you maintain consciousness about your thinking for 33 days. Be aware of your thoughts, and when you find you are thinking repetitively orthinking about things that you do not want in your reality, stop and think one very strong, powerful and focused thought about what you want. Then let it go! We promise you that if you do that for 33 consecutive days, you will have reprogrammed yourself!

It truly is very easy once you understand how powerful the energy of your thoughts are. Another way to think about this is that it is very similar to placing an order. If you place an order for exactly what you want and then let it go, the order will be fulfilled. But if you place an order and then change the order, it takes longer. Or if you place an order and cancel it, then place it again and then cancel it again and so on, it may never get to you or you may get an order that you do not want.

You are a very powerful creator. When you choose your thoughts consciously and clearly, you create with ease. It is our greatest desire that you clear your minds and have more time for relaxation, joy and happiness.

We are grateful for this interaction and connection.

We are complete.

The Movie of Your Life and The Law of Reflection

Your external world is simply the movie screen of your internal journey.

~ The Eloheim through Veronica Torres

I find this a fascinating way to view the concept of the "mirror" that the external world brings to us through our experiences.

The 9th Dimensional Pleiadian Collective through Wendy Kennedy explains this idea using The Law of Reflection (Law of Reflection audio, June 2010). It starts with the understanding that each of us has a unique vibration, a unique signature that all of our thoughts, beliefs, expectations add to. If you know anything about carrier waves, you can think of your personal "base" vibration in the same way.

Paraphrasing the Ps (as Wendy lovingly refers to the Pleiadian Collective), here's what happens:

As we have thoughts, dreams, hopes, expectations, and/or fears, anxieties, upsets, angers, etc., we "pulse out" our unique frequency combined with these other frequencies. As those frequencies pulse out from each of us, the Universe responds back with a reflection that is a vibrational match - that's where the Law of Attraction comes in. It doesn't matter whether those frequencies are generated consciously or unconsciously, we are always generating this energy field and the Universe is always responding to it.

Each experience is a refection, and all the experiences/reflections combined comprise the movie. In essence, as the Eloheim so eloquently remind us, "the movie of your internal life is always playing out on the screen of your external world". That's A Good Thing™ because it allows each of us to see what we're pulsing out by looking at the experiences that we're having. Armed with that information, if we don't like what we see we can change it!

So the goal, if we want to create the kind of personal reality (life) that we individualy wish to create .. and the kind of joint reality (world) that we wish to create together .. is to continue to be conscious of what we're creating by watching what shows up, rather than creating unconsciously or, as Abraham says "by default."

Consciously being aware of what we're experiencing - and if an experience doesn't please us, choosing to experience it in a different way - is what the journey is all about. Through our continued choices we shift the movie internally, and shifting it internally causes the external representation of it to shift as well.

You might think of it this way: You're the writer, director, actor and producer of the movie of your life. You're also the guy in the cutting room, so you can make the movie of your life come together however you like. If you don't like a portion of the movie after you've seen it on the screen, leave that portion on the cutting room floor. It's your movie, and you don't have to continue to "include" anything in the film that you don't choose!

If you want to carry the analogy a bit further, you might think of your Soul (Higher Self / Inner Being if you prefer) as the creative consultant to your movie. Staying in contact with your creative consultant can result in your movie living up to its full and complete potential .. and being a heck of a lot more fun too! ;)

In His Own Words ..

Pamela Kribbe at Jeshua.net has been channeling the energy of Jeshua (sometimes spelled 'Yeshua'), the human incarnation of Jesus, since 2002. In a fascinating interview early in their time together, Jeshua told the story of who he perceives himself to be, why he agreed to incarnate on the earth at the time that he did, and what he hoped to accomplish in that lifetime.

It's not a surprise to many lightworkers and spiritual healers that Jeshua's story differs significantly from the stories that have been told and handed down through the ages about Jesus. As with all things, use your own discernment as you read this very loving and open account of the story of Jesus the Christ from the perspective of his human incarnation, as channeled by Pamela Kribbe.

Conversation with Jeshua, October 2002

Jeshua, who are you?

I am the one who has been among you and who you have come to know as Jesus.

I am not the Jesus of your church tradition or the Jesus of your religious writings.

I am Jeshua-ben-Joseph; I have lived as a man of flesh and blood.

I did reach Christ consciousness before you, but I was supported in this by powers which are beyond your imagination at present. My coming was a cosmic event - I made myself available for this.

It wasn’t easy. I did not succeed in my endeavours to pass on to people the immensity of God’s love. There was much misunderstanding. I came too early, but someone had to come. My coming was like throwing a stone in a large fishpond. All fish flee and the stone sinks into the deep. There are ripples noticeable long after though. One might say that the kind of consciousness I wished to convey, did its work underground after that. At the surface of the pool there were constant ruffles; well-meant but misguided interpretations rose to meet and fight each other in my name. The ones who were touched by my energy, moved by the impulse of Christ energy, could not really integrate it with their psychological and physical reality.

It has taken a long time before Christ consciousness could set foot on earth. But now the time has come. And I have returned and speak through many, through all and to everyone who wants to hear me and who has come to understand me from the quietness of their hearts. I do not preach and I do not judge. My sincerest hope is to speak to you of the vast and unfailing presence of Love, accessible to you at any time.

I am part of a much larger consciousness, a greater entity, but I, Jeshua, am the incarnated part of that entity (or field of consciousness). I do not like the name Jesus much, for it has become so caught up with a distorted version of what I stand for. ‘Jesus’ is owned by the church traditions and authorities. He has been molded to fit the interests of the church patriarchs for centuries, so much so that the prevailing image of Jesus is now so far removed from what I represent, that it would truly please me if you could just let it go and release me from that heritage.

I am Jeshua, man of flesh and blood.
I am your friend and brother.
I am familiar with being human in every way.
I am teacher and friend.
Do not fear me. Embrace me like you’d embrace one of your kin.
We are family.

Jeshua, Jesus and Christ

The Christ energy that I came to offer you stems from a collective energy that has gone beyond the world of duality. This means that it recognizes the opposites of good and bad, light and dark, giving and taking, as the aspects of one and the same energy. Living from the reality of Christ consciousness means that there is no struggle with anything. There is a complete acceptance of reality. This absence of struggle or resistance is its main characteristic. Since Christ (or the Christ energy) recognizes the extremes of all thoughts, feelings and actions as the manifestation of the one divine energy, there can be no duality, no judgment in the way ‘he’ (the christed energy) experiences reality.

Let’s give an example here. When the Christ in you watches an armed conflict between people, her heart weeps for the fate of the beaten one, but she does not judge. She feels the pain and humiliation with each blow, and her heart is filled with compassion, but she does not judge. She watches the offender, the one with the gun, who has power, who inflicts pain, and she feels……..the hatred and bitterness inside of him, and her heart grieves, but she does not judge. The heart of Christ embraces the whole spectacle with deeply felt compassion, but without judgment, for she recognizes all aspects as experiences she has gone through herself. She herself has lived out all of these roles, of offender and victim, of master and slave, and she has come to the understanding that she is neither of them, but that which underlies both.

The Christ energy has passed through all the energies of duality. It identified itself now with the dark, then with the light, but through it all, something remained the same. And when she realized this “sameness” underlying all her experiences, her consciousness obtained a new kind of unity: it was “christed”. The christed energy was the energy I came to offer you.

Who I was is quite difficult to explain. I will try so by distinguishing between three ‘identities’: Jeshua, Jesus, and Christ.

I, the one who is now speaking, am Jeshua. I was the human being who carried the Christ energy in my incarnation on Earth. This energy may also be called Christ.

Jesus - in my terminology - is the name for the Godlike man who was the result of the infusion of Christ energy into the physical and psychological reality of Jeshua.

This Christ energy was poured into Jeshua from spheres of Light which are - from your standpoint - located in your future. Jesus was the man who performed miracles and put forward prophesies. Jesus was an emissary from the spheres of light, incarnated in me. In fact, he was my future self. Jesus was, from my perspective as the man Jeshua living on earth, my future self, who had become one with the Christ energy. Because the Christ in him was clearly present and visible to many people around him, he appeared to them as divine.

I, Jeshua, was a man of flesh and blood. The unique and to some extent artificial aspect of the “Jesus-construction” was that I received his/my Christed self from the future. I did not become christed on the basis of my past and the experiences therein. I did not achieve enlightenment in a natural way, but by means of an intervention from outside so to speak, by an infusion of Christ energy from the future. I had agreed to play this role before I began this lifetime. I agreed to be ‘overshadowed’ by the Jesus presence, as an act of service, and also because of a deeply felt longing to get to know the reality of my deepest potentials.

Jesus, my future self from the spheres of light, had become one with the Christ energy. Yet he did not represent the entire energy of Christ here on earth, for this energy encompasses more than Jesus. He is one part or cell of it.

Christ or the Christ energy (it is more like an energy field than a personal entity) is a collective energy which has many aspects or “cells”, which are cooperating in such a way that they function as one “organism”. All cells make a unique contribution to the whole and experience themselves as individuals while being part of the whole as well. One might call these several aspects of the Christ energy angels or arch-angels. It is the hallmark of angels that they have a sense of individuality as well as a high-degree of selflessness, which allows them to feel one with collective energies and be joyfully in their service. The notion of (arch) angels is elucidated in the last chapter of the Lightworker series ('Your Light Self').

Jesus’ mission on earth

Jesus was an energy from the future who came to earth to bring illumination and knowledge to humanity. He came from another world or even dimension, and he brought with him the elevated energy of this reality. His awareness of his own Greater Self remained intact while he incarnated on earth. Because of his presence in me, Jeshua, I could easily realize the flexibility of material laws and “perform miracles”.

The reason why the Jesus/Jeshua personality came to earth was to create an opening or doorway to a different state of consciousness. I wanted to set an example of the possibilities that are available to each human being.

In the spheres of light where Jesus came from, it was felt that the earth was going into a direction which would end up in great darkness and self-alienation for the souls involved in the earth experiment. It was decided that a powerful impetus for change was going to be given which would clearly show human beings the choices available to them. By sending the energy personality of Jesus, we wanted to hold up a mirror to human beings and remind them of their own divine origin and the dormant potentials they carried within. The potentials for peace, freedom and mastership over yourself.

Every human being is the master of his own reality. You are creating your own reality all the time. You are able to let go of a miserable or unsatisfying reality and allow Light to enter and transform your creation. Man is his own master, but he tends to give his power away to outside authorities who claim to know the truth and to want the best for you. This happens in politics, medicine, education, and etcetera. Also, your “entertainment industry” is full of false images about happiness, success and beauty, which serve no one except the ones who construct them. Have you ever thought about how much money is spent just creating images? In the media, the newspapers, the movies, on radio and television, images are spread all the time. Where do these images come from? Why are they there? Who designs them?

Images are a means of exerting power over people. Images can make people subservient and disconnected from their true needs, without the use of physical force or violence. Images can make people voluntarily give away their own power and self-worth. They delude you in such a way that you need not be violently forced into anything; you will accept the values portrayed by the image as your own and act accordingly. This is what we would call invisible mind-control and it is rampant among your ‘free’ western societies.

The function of Light is primarily to bring clarity, awareness and transparency to the invisible structures of thought and feeling that shape your life. Light is the opposite of mind-control. Where Light enters a reality, it breaks the bonds of mere power and authority and it breaks down the hierarchies based on it. It holds misuse of power up to the light and it frees people of delusions and illusions that take away their power for self-determination.

Jesus was a threat to the ruling order at the time he lived. By what he told people and sheerly by what he radiated, he caused structures of power to be seen for what they truly were. This was unbearable and unacceptable for the existing hierarchy.

The role of Lightworker, which Jesus took upon him, was heavy; especially for me, Jeshua, the human being who agreed to carry this intense, bright energy in my lifetime. I, Jeshua, was almost overshadowed by the force of Jesus’ presence, the presence of my future self! Although it filled me with great insights, love and inspiration, it was quite a challenge physically to carry or “hold” his energy. I could not really integrate his energy into my physical being - the cells in my body were ‘not ready’ for it yet - so on a physical level my body got exhausted from carrying these intense energies of Light.

Apart from the physical aspect, there was also a psychological burden to carrying the Christ energy. I found it very hard to watch the nature of the Christ energy being misunderstood frequently, even by my closest friends or ‘disciples’. As the human being that I was, I sometimes became desperate and doubted the value of the journey I undertook. I felt that the world was not ready for the Christed energy. I felt that its essence was not recognised. Jesus was truly a pioneer in his time.

Results of Jesus’ coming to earth

By the coming of Jesus to earth, a seed was planted. It was the seed of the Christ energy. People were moved by what I said and did, and unconsciously, at the soul-level, they did recognize the Christ energy. Deep within their souls, a memory was stirred. Something was touched and set in motion.

At the surface, on the level of what can be seen and felt in the physical world, my coming created much commotion. In virtue of the law of duality, the powerful infusion of Light creates a powerful reaction from the Dark. This is just a matter of logic. Light is confronting. It wants to break structures of power and set the imprisoned energies free. Darkness is the energy that wants to suppress and control. So these two energies have opposing interests. Where one gains in power, the other will strike back to defend itself and regain balance. Thus, my coming to earth also initiated much struggle and violence, as a counter reaction to the Light I came to spread.

The persecution of my followers, the early Christians, is one example of this violent counter reaction. But the Christians themselves, the founders of the Church, did not shun violence either in their pursuit to spread my teachings. Think of the crusades and the Inquisition. In the name of Christ, the most barbaric deeds of darkness have been performed, by Christians as well as non-Christians.

The masters of Light, who decided to send me as an emissary to earth, were aware of the fact that the intense and unprecedented energy of Jesus might invoke strong reactions of darkness. Jesus penetrated the reality of earth like a comet. It was a kind of emergency measure from the spheres of light, from energies which were deeply concerned with earth and its inhabitants. It was an ultimate attempt to divert the direction in which the earth was heading, a way of interrupting cycles of ignorance and destruction which kept on repeating themselves.

The results were ambiguous. On the one hand, the Light of Jesus invoked much Darkness (by way of counter reaction). On the other hand, the seed of the Christ consciousness was planted in the hearts of a number of people. An important reason for my coming was to awaken the lightworker souls on earth. (See the other channelled material for an explanation of the notion of lightworker). They would be most sensitive and receptive of my energy, although many had become lost in the density and darkness of the earth plane as well. Lightworkers are in fact emissaries of Light with the same mission as Jesus. The difference is that in their incarnation in a physical body, they are less connected to their wider divine Self than I was. They are more subject to the karmic burdens and illusions of the earth plane. They are more bound to the past. With the incarnation of Jesus, something special was occurring. Jesus did not carry any karmic burdens from the past and he could therefore more easily keep in touch with his divinity. He was here in a somewhat artificial way, a presence from the future, being here and there at the same time.

The consciousness of the beings of Light which jointly decided to ‘insert’ the energy of Jesus into earth reality at the time was not perfect and all-knowing. Every conscious being is in the process of developing and understanding itself all the time. Among humans, there is a persistent belief that everything is predestined by some divine plan; behind this belief is the notion of a dominant, omniscient God. This notion is false. There is no predestination by an outside force. There are only probabilities which are the result from inner choices you yourself make. My coming to earth was based on a decision made by a collective energy of light, which Jesus was a part of. It was a choice that involved risks and an unpredictable outcome.

The collective energy of light I am speaking of is an angelic realm that is deeply connected to humanity and earth because it helped to create man and earth. Actually, you are part of them and not separate from them at all, but we are now speaking multidimensionally, i.e. on a level of consciousness that is outside of your linear framework of time. In another dimension or framework of time, you are these angels that make up the spheres of light, from which Jesus descended to earth. (See the last chapter of the Lightworker series ('Your Light Self') for an in-depth explanation of multidimensionality and your angelic nature).You – lightworkers - are much more interconnected with ‘the Jesus event’, this infusion of Christ energy on earth, than you suppose. It was to some extent a collective endeavour, to which you all contributed, and from which I, Jeshua, was the visible, physical representative.

My message was that the Christ energy is present in all human beings as a seed. When you look up to me as some kind of authority, you have misunderstood my message.

I wished and still wish to invite you to believe in yourself, to find the truth within your own heart, and not to believe in any authority outside of you.

Ironically, the official Christian religion has placed me outside of your reality as an authority to worship and obey. This is quite the opposite of what I intended. I intended to show you that you can be a living Christ yourself.

I now ask you to recognize the Christ within, and to return to me my humanness.

I am Jeshua, man of flesh and blood, and truly a friend and brother to you all.

7 Questions That Can Change Your Life

The following "7 Questions That Can Change Your Life" comes from Sarah Biermann at ImagiCreation. The list is quite a good compilation of ways to break out of the automaticity or "programming" that we created for ourselves as a way to navigate the third density environment and protect ourselves from its pain, be that pain physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual. May using these tools help you gain and maintain access to your true Self, a connection that gets stronger and closer with every breath.

THE SEVEN QUESTIONS THAT CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE!

By Sarah Biermann at ImagiCreation

These seven questions are designed to break free from the limitations of 3D Reality so you can create your life as YOU choose.

Quantum Physics tells us that the universe exists as an infinite number of possible futures until it is observed. These possibilities follow a wave function. It's like each possibility is represented by a hump in the wave. Once a choice is made, the wave collapses. A question creates a wave of possibilities. Once the possibilities exist, then all you need to do is choose.

These questions are particularly expansive and empowering. When you ask the question, do not expect an immediate answer though it might happen. Sometimes just the act of asking the question creates the change. Pay attention to your dreams and notice what jumps out at you in your environment. It could be words in a book, a picture, a memory, etc. However, just asking the question shifts the energy. Keep asking until you feel like the question is no longer useful.

1) IS THIS ENERGY MINE?
During the transition to the New Energy the frequencies here are fluctuating dramatically and rapidly. When the planetary vibration is higher you feel expansive and blissful. At these times you feel like you are really "getting it". You feel calm and content, as if everything is going to turn out well.

When the planet fluctuates into the lower frequencies you start to struggle. Old limiting patterns that you thought you had cleared come back. These can be mental, emotional and physical. At these times you feel like you are not "getting it". You can feel tense and/or exhausted. It can seem like things just aren't right and you can slip into old habits. You might say, "On no, I thought I was over that, but I guess I was wrong…again." Does this sound familiar?

You are more psychic than you even realize. Not only do you sense the frequency shifts of the planet, you also pick-up the thoughts, emotions and physical sensations of other people. It is a wonderful ability, and part of the nature of your New Energy being. The problem is that you are unconsciously aware of the energy and you translate it to fit the pattern you expressed in the past that matched that frequency! The old patterns can be negative emotions, limiting thoughts, pain or illness, or old habits that do not serve you anymore. You perceive the energy and you think that it is yours.

The way this worked for me is that I got back pain. That is an old pattern for me. For a whole lot of my life I was limited by my back problems, particularly sciatica. Recently, that problem went away. OK, it didn't just go away. I worked hard, clearing the programming and learning to be in harmony with my body. When the pain returned, at first I went into judgment of myself, "Oh no, Why am I creating this again?" Then I stopped and I chose instead to look at it from the place of my expanded being. That was when I realized that I was translating the energies that I perceived into an old pattern. In my inner vision it looked like there was a wind blowing through me. Only I wasn't letting it just blow through, I had hooks that were catching the wind and locking it into my body. There was a familiarity to the energy and because it was familiar I thought that it was mine.

Another example is when I found myself obsessing over memories of all the horrible (I thought) things that my ex-husband did before and during our divorce. I was well into the maze of troubling thoughts before I caught myself. "Whoa! I am so over that story. How did I get into that loop?" I understood then that I was perceiving thoughts and emotions that weren't mine. That energy pattern matched what I had experienced when I was in the thick of the drama and story of divorce. That energy was familiar and it triggered the familiar reactions in me. My mind created thoughts to match the energy.

You do not have to take on all these outside energies. By being conscious of what is going on, you will be able to disconnect from reacting to the energy and stop the symptoms of that reaction. Stay aware and question everything you feel and think. Ask yourself, "Is this mine?" Your inner knowing will give you the answer. You might get the answer, or you can muscle test or use cards to get your answer.

If the energy is not yours then it will lighten up just by asking the question. Say the words, "Thank you for the awareness but this is not mine. Let it pass through." Use your imagination, breathe and let it go. Dissolve the hook(s) and "let it pass through”. Relief may not be instant. Give it some time. Continue to breathe and release.

Here is an exercise that is excellent practice for this process.

Go for a walk in a neighborhood where people live. As you walk, notice every thought, emotion or sensation and ask, "Is this mine?" I was amazed when I did this. At one point I started to feel sad, immediately my mind found something in my life that I could feel sad about. But I caught it and asked, "Is this mine?” The answer was "No". "Let it pass through", I said and the sadness went away, just like that. Later my hips started to ache, also not mine. Within a few minutes the pain went away. This type of thing happened over and over and none of it was mine!

With consistent awareness of this process I think you will be surprised to find how few of your thoughts, emotions and physical sensations are truly yours!

2) WHAT WOULD IT BE LIKE IF (______)?
Everything that has ever been created has first been imagined. When you ask the question, “What would it be like if ____?”, imagine what it would feel like. When you use your feeling sense to perceive a potential reality, it activates the part of you that can create that reality. Focus your imagination to create a new sensation. This starts a flow or wave of energy to manifest the desired effect. Focusing on the physical manifestation creates a limitation to only that option. You want to keep all your options open, even the ones that you can’t imagine right now.

Here are some examples:

What would it be like…
* if I always had plenty of money?
* if my body looked like I wish it did?
* (or better yet)if I loved the way my body looked?
* if I was brilliantly successful?
* if I knew what to do in this situation?
* if I didn’t have to worry about my son (daughter, mother, etc.)?

If you are having difficulty imagining the feeling, don’t give up. Keep asking the question. You could ask, “What would it be like if I could imagine _____?” The more time you spend in the feeling of the desired effect the better.

3) WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE FOR _____ TO HAPPEN WITH EASE?
In the New Energy we create without effort. When you want something to happen and you are not sure how to go about it, ask this question. Do not ask, "What do I need to do?' or "What are the next steps?" Do you feel the difference in the energy between those questions. If you ask what to do you are setting yourself up to create in a linear way and with effort. "What is it going to take?" is an invitation for it to appear without struggle or effort and it allows for possibilities that you haven’t thought of. This question invites the universe to support you in your creation.

4) WHAT'S RIGHT ABOUT THIS THAT I'M NOT GETTING?
So often we focus on what is wrong or bad about a situation. Then we start judging ourselves and/or others as being wrong for letting it happen. What you focus your energy on is what gets bigger. So asking, "What's right about this that I'm not getting?" focuses your energy on what's right and off of judging.

Think of how many times things have happened that you have judged as being bad, like losing a job. When you look back at it (perhaps after you get a better job) you realize that losing the job was actually a good thing. Asking this question shifts your perception, and that shifts your experience.

5) HOW DID I CREATE THIS?
When you ask, "How did I create this?" you are asking for awareness of that moment of unconsciousness when you made the decision that led you to a less than expansive outcome. My daughter was ill with an ear infection. One afternoon I started to feel bad, really exhausted and achy. I asked, "How did I create this?" I remembered that my ear had started to hurt earlier in the day. At the time, I realized that I was taking on my daughter's pain and suffering. I thought that my body would be able to clear the illness faster and easier than my daughter would. She was not getting better after six days. Then I went unconscious. I just thought about something else. Within a couple of hours I was feeling sick. Asking the question, "How did I create this?" led me to the awareness of that moment of unconsciousness. From there I was able to un-create it. The good news is that we both got better, fast.

DO NOT ASK, “WHY DID I DO THAT?” When you ask “why” it takes you back into a loop of your own failures, to all the times in the past when you did something like this and all the emotions and judgments that went with that. WHY brings up all the stuff that you believe makes you do stupid things, like your abusive parent or two-timing ex-spouse. This solidifies that limiting reality into your current situation. Instead I asked how it started, what was the point of creation of this experience.

6) WHAT WOULD THIS BE IF IT WASN'T PAIN?
Use this question after you ask, “Is this mine?” if it doesn’t go away. The experience of pain is an interpretation of sensory input. This question gives you the option of interpreting it in a different way. If there is something that your being is trying to communicate to you and you are not listening, sometimes it comes out as pain. Emotion can be translated into pain also.

7) HOW DOES IT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS?
Say this when anything happens that you like. If you find some money… "How does it get any better then this?" If the waiter brings you a delicious dessert for free…"How does it get any better than this?"

A woman found a penny on the ground. She asked, "How does it get any better than this?" Shortly after that she found a ten-dollar bill in the back of a taxi and asked, "How does it get any better than this?" A shiny object in the rain drain caught her eye. It was a diamond bracelet. Unfortunately, she said, "It can't get any better than this!" and it didn't.

Say "How does it get any better then this?" when anything happens that you that you don't like. If your car gets a flat tire…"How does it get any better than this?" If your child gets in trouble in school… "How does it get any better than this?"

It is an invitation to the universe to show you how it can get better.

If you can't think of what question to ask...try:

WHAT WOULD I ASK IF I KNEW WHAT TO ASK?

This may sound silly, but it is probably the best question of them all!

Consistent use of these questions will change your reality. Here’s the big secret. “We’re making it all up!” We created this game of life on Earth. We continue to create it every day. Why not do it the way we wish? Why not have fun and play with it?

What would it be like if you could make it up however you wish?

After reading through the examples you may come up with terminology for the questions that resonates better for you than what is given, but the concept is the same. By all means use whatever words feel comfortable for you, and trust that the process works. Because it does. Enjoy!

You Are Not A Victim

If you've been following my comments for very long, either here or elsewhere, you'll know that I continually insist that no one is a victim. Not ever. Not under any circumstance. You can generate all the potential victim circumstances that you like and I will still insist that no, the people involved in whatever circumstances you can describe, whether it's you or someone else, whether that someone is old or young, barely born or never completed being born, or whether the experience involved one person or a thousand people, none of the people involved were victims. You may never understand or ever be able to accept this concept, but that doesn't make it not true. :p

However, there's a vast - unlimited really - amount of power in realizing that you are the architect of your own experiences, and so is everyone else. A vast amount of power - and freedom - in realizing that whatever circumstance you find yourself in, you either created it for your own reasons, or you agreed to participate in it for your own reasons. And so with everyone else. What those reasons are seems mostly unknowable to us, and that's where we tend to get off track. The reasons aren't really unknowable, but they may be well hidden. You may have compassion for the circumstances that you or others are caught up in, whatever they are, and that is as it should be. Compassion moves us toward higher frequencies. But none of that makes the concept of no victims untrue.

In an attempt to drive home this concept, here's a quote from Ramshi, 12th Dimensional Master Geneticist / Universal Architect, as channeled by Wendy Kennedy.

As a Creator Being you manifest [an] experience to encounter [a] fear, observe it and release it. You are not a victim. As you see yourself in the driver’s seat, attracting the vibrationally appropriate people into your life, you breathe deeper as you no longer see yourself in the victim role.

~ Ramshi

What Ramshi is alluding to is the idea that you can't clear a fear that you aren't aware of. A part of your current mission is to clear your fears (an absolute must if one wants to shift into higher frequencies). How can you clear something that you don't know is there? How can you stop tripping on a stone hidden under the rug if you never pull back the rug to find what you're tripping on? It's the same idea with fear. Unless and until you are confronted with a fear, you may not even be aware that it's sitting around, just under the surface of conscious awareness, causing you all sorts of grief.

So bless those who are responsible for putting fear right in your face .. for the opportunity they have offered you is profound. Whether you take the opportunity to work with the fear or not is always up to you, and there is no judgement - ever - on the part of Spirit whether you do or whether you do not. But the opportunity is there, and it's far more powerful to realize that you set it up that way than to continue to wallow in self pity insisting that someone or some thing did something to you.

The most beautiful part of this process is that once you realize how it works and take advantage of the opportunities to experience and release your fear, moving through life with fluidity becomes far easier. Once confronted, integrated and released, a fear will never haunt you again. And it will make confronting and releasing other fears far easier.

But don't worry, if you don't confront your fear this time, you'll get the opportunity to do so again. Until it's released it's not going anywhere. But that's a good thing. :)

About Our New Crystalline Structure

Most of us who've been actively involved in assisting the ascension process of both Earth and Humanity are aware that, over time and as we evolve into the higher frequencies, we're being "rewired". Our DNA is changing back to include the properties that were removed at different times in our (mostly unknown) history, from the two physical strands that science is aware of back to the original 12 strands, the vast majority of which are multi-dimensional in nature. As we integrate the divine male and divine female into one, and as the "veil" between the dimensions becomes more transparent, we are aware that our brain is evolving back to a single unit, rather than continuing to operate as two separate halves.

We're also aware that while we've been a carbon-based lifeform up to this point, we're becoming a crystalline-based lifeform. And we are aware that all this is happening without having to leave the body. Quite an amazing feat if you think about it. Mind-boggling really, assuming we can even begin to wrap our rational minds around such a concept. But what does all that really mean?

There are answers in many books written over the past dozen years, and information all over the web, including much information given on this site. For a little bit different take on the crystalline aspect of this evolution, here's a small section taken from a series of questions found in "Conversations with Nomar, May 2006". Nomar is an Arcturian embassador channeled by Wendy Kennedy, well-respected channel for the 9th Dimensional Pleiadian Collective.

Question: Could you comment on the crystalline circuitry?

Nomar: Yes, what would you like to know about it?

Question: How you can describe it in our bodies?

Nomar: You have markers within your DNA. When those markers have been flipped "on" the crystalline structure appears in your energetic body. There are connecting points within your physical structure that anchor just as your chakras are anchored between your physical and etheric body. So, it is not necessarily your physical body that is changing completely to the crystalline structure. It is your energetic body which is aligning.

Think of it as laying cable for your phone line. It is the crystalline cable that will accept the new energies that are being offered. And your physical body will be plugged in through certain power points. These points lie within the meridians. Primarily on your pineal gland, your thymus, your pituitary, all on the glandular system.

Question: Is there anything we can do to enhance this?

Nomar: It is automatic as you raise your vibration, as you are working within the frequency of love. The human coding at this time is such that the points are activated when you are working through compassion, through the frequency of love.

This is why you'll find so many energy workers and healers doing DNA activations, pineal activations, and similar. For those who want to move along faster - help lead the way, lay the groundwork, open the pathways, etc - these activations are important. For anyone else, the activations will simply be a part of the process of our mass evolution into the higher frequencies. If you're interested enough in the topic to seek out these activations there are many reputable sources. Just remember to use your intuition and discernment in finding an appropriate source to work with.

Thriving through Chaos

There have been a number of sources recently - Steve Rother and 'the group', Jim Self at Mastering Alchemy, Kyron through Lee Carroll, Adamus through Geoff Hoppe, the Hathors through Tom Kenyon to name just a few - who've been telling us in similar but different ways that things are heating up on the planet, both literally and figuratively. The space in which we live is getting more chaotic, and will continue to do so for the next 18 months or so.

Effects of this chaos include such diverse physical things as shifting weather patterns, and more planetary upheaval in the form of storms, eruptions, earthquakes, floods, and other “natural” disasters. On a societal level, there will be the continued breakdown and reworking of systems like banking, government, schools, and industries. The ramifications on our way of life, and our emotions in particular, will be severely impacted. Areas where we have counted on agriculture to sustain us may shift and no longer be areas where we can grow things. We are going to be pressed upon to make changes in nearly every area of life. The impact of all this chaos on human beings is going to continue to be intense, resulting in more upset, and in more dissociative and mental health disorders globally.

Yet despite how it all sounds, this is not a cause for panic, nor even upset. What it is cause for is standing back and seeing things from a different, higher vibrational viewpoint. Look at it as the final wake up call, the one that we can no longer ignore if we are to create the kind of world that we wish to create. This is the point at which - if we haven't already - we'd be wise to pay attention to what our responsibility is, both to ourselves and to the planet. Kind of a spiritual "hey! listen up here! your beliefs, thoughts, and attitude matter!"

But why is this happening?

There is good reason for all this chaos. As we move toward ascension (recall that ascension here means raising our vibration while remaining in the physical body) there are many patterns of energy, ways of being, that cannot exist in the higher vibrations. Any and all thoughts, beliefs, actions, or emotions that are fear-based will be brought to the surface for healing. Healing here meaning integration and clearing. It's pretty easy to see this happening in our personal lives, as upsets and issues we thought we'd put to rest are once again right in our face. No one is immune from this need for integration and clearing, the energies bombarding us are just too intense. But that’s A Good Thing™.

Since the planet is affected by our mass consciousness, fear-based beliefs held in mass consciousness are coming to the surface to be cleared and integrated as well. And what affects large numbers of the population, especially for those unaware of the deeper meaning of what’s going on, will only add to and exacerbate the issues. As within our own personal lives, the process of clearing and integration for the planet can be gentle or it can be severe, and the degree to which it is one or the other is - believe it or not - under our (humanity's) control.

It can be a bit (or a lot) daunting to think that we humans have the ability to affect not only ourselves but the world around us. Are we really responsible for the seemingly horrific things that happen in the world? The answer is an emphatic "yes". But keep in mind, we're also responsible for the miracles .. of which there are many! The problem - if you want to look at it that way - is that we've been gliding along for thousands of years blissfully unaware that what we think, what we believe, what we say, and the actions that we take don't simply disappear into the ether, they have an impact on ourselves and the world around us. Indeed, those things create the world around us.

The beauty in recognizing this is that we have the power to change it. As Kryon likes to say, it takes only one half of one percent of the population to change the outcome of any given scenario on the planet. That's good news, yes? But what about the other 99.5 percent? The answer to that is simple too: Focus on living life as you wish it to be no matter what is happening around you, and not only will others notice and want the same for themselves, they’ll be impacted in ways that we, in our humanness, cannot even imagine. Through you living an empowered life, others' vibration will rise, and as it does, so does the vibration of mass consciousness.

And how do we accomplish that?

It's a far simpler process than one might imagine. If you've been paying attention, you'll note that huge numbers of sources of ascension information over the last 10 years or more have been offering us one very simple (not necessarily easy) and very powerful concept by which to make miracles happen in our individual lives, and by extension, globally.

It goes something like this: Be in your joy. Develop an on-going attitude of appreciation and gratitude. Notice what's happening around you, but refuse to focus on it or participate in it energetically. Focus your attention on what you want to see, and not on what you don't want to see. If you aren’t happy with your current experience change your perspective.

This is, after all, a planet of "free choice". What that means is that we are spirit incarnate in human flesh. We might look like ordinary animal matter but we are not. We are children of god and god also. We have the inherent gift of our own unique and individual abilities to create the experiences that we call “our life”. We can change our vibration through our will. These are abilities that no other consciousness (plant, animal, mineral) on Earth has. Yet every human being alive today has those inherent abilities, whether they are aware of it or not, whether they consciously use their abilities or not. We are all the stewards for this planet and everything upon her. We are partners with Gaia/Earth, finally becoming aware enough of our own ability that we can take on our true role to support her needs, and that of others, without compromising our own.

In other words, our choices matter. Our thoughts matter. Our beliefs matter. Our actions mirror our thoughts and beliefs, and in that way our actions also matter. You might be tempted to think I got that backwards, that the most important quality is our actions, our “doing”. But backwards it is not. Why? Because our actions always mirror our thoughts and beliefs, and not the other way around. Manage the thoughts and beliefs, and the actions take care of themselves.

It is an honor to be a part of this world at this time, and with that honor comes responsibility. The responsibility to manage the power that comes with being spirit incarnate as human. I'm reminded of a comment made by Spirt through John Cali: "Use your power wisely, as you imagine God would. For you also are God." Powerful, meaningful words.

The Specifics

Each source of ascension information has given - and continues to give - their own version of how to shift energy. All are helpful, useful, and indeed powerful in their own right, and each speaks to different people at different times and in different ways. Seek out the one(s) that speak to you intuitively, but keep in mind how very simple it really is. As Jim Self at Mastering Alchemy continually reminds us, don’t confuse “simple” with “ineffective.”

That said, the Hathors through Tom Kenyon, in their message “The Emergence of Multiple Chaotic Nodes” offer what I see as a most simple and meaningful process to change the reality in which we live. I have used - and am using - this very simple technique to great advantage. May it assist you and guide you to an ever-more increasing love and appreciation of the life and opportunities that you have given yourself.

The Basic Technique - The Hathors Speak

… simply reside in the feelings of appreciation or gratitude, without any reason to do so. In other words, you are not looking to something in your environment or your life to feel appreciation or gratitude for. You simply enter into this vibratory state for no other reason other than choosing to do so.

This vibratory state creates a coherency in your body and mind, and it is a type of mental/emotional upliftment that acts as a counter-balance to the downward spiral many humans will be experiencing.

We recommend that you enter this emotional state several times a day. Just a minute or two is all that is needed, but by entering into this vibratory state throughout the day, you train your brain/mind/body to enter into a coherent state at will. And this will be a very helpful and important mind-skill as you enter further into this planetary transition state (i.e. the emergence of multiple Chaotic Nodes).

One reason we say that this mind-skill will be helpful to you is due to the inherent effects of multiple Chaotic Nodes.

Many of you will find greater opportunities for frustration in your daily life. This is because actions taken will increasingly not lead to the result anticipated. Even those of you who are intellectually gifted and masters of manifestation may find blocks and unanticipated hindrances, due to no causation on your part, but rather due to the actions or inactions of others, as well as unanticipated problems caused by the increase of chaotic events in the world around you. Thus, when you find yourself at your wit’s end, so to speak, if you have cultivated the positive attractor of appreciation or gratitude you can use it to intervene into your own emotional turmoil, for if you succumb to your own emotional stress the contagion of mass hysteria is more likely to reach you.

Think of this simple technique as a lifesaver. It’s something passive, you just rest in it, and it creates a vibratory field that by its very nature protects your emotional and spiritual essence.

~ The Hathors

Here is Tom’s explanation of The Hathors' very simple and straight-forward process.

The Basic Technique - Tom’s explanation and expansion
 
The idea here is to enter into the emotion, or feeling-state, of appreciation or gratitude. And you enter this state of body and mind for no reason other than choosing to experience it.

In other words, you don’t look to something in your life that you feel appreciation or gratitude for. You enter into this feeling-state through an act of will.

According to the Hathors, when you reside in this state of body and mind, you create what they call a positive attractor. It positively affects your mood, your thinking, and your behavior and, they would say, your vibrational energy-field as well.

The Hathors are suggesting that we enter into this feeling-state of appreciation or gratitude several times a day—so that we become masters of it—meaning that we can enter it anytime of day or night at will.

They say that this ability will serve us greatly as we, and the other nearly 7 billion people on this planet, enter more deeply into the consequences of so many Chaotic Nodes. In other words—the feeling state of appreciation or gratitude is an antidote, a mental/emotional protection, against chaotically induced stress responses.

The more often you practice this flipping of your mental/emotional state into the feelings of appreciation or gratitude, the better you will become at it. This type of emotional brain skill is just that—a skill. And like all skills, mastery is gained through repetition. We have to build the neuro-circuits in our brains before we can count on the response to be there when we most need it.

If you are the type of person with a well-developed neural network that gives you access to your emotions, you can probably just recall the feeling of appreciation or gratitude. And as you do so, you will notice the quality of your emotions changing into the coherent and positive feeling of appreciation or gratitude. Now all you need to do is choose to enter into this feeling-state several times a day. Do it as a type of mental experiment. Do it in situations when it is easy and do it in situations when it is difficult to do, like when you are annoyed, impatient or angry. See what happens when you intervene into your own mental/emotional experience with this coherent emotional state (i.e. appreciation or gratitude).  And remember, the more you practice this, the more adept and masterful you will become.

If you are the type of person who does not have direct access to your emotions, you might try the memory recall method. The idea, here, is that when you remember an event or a situation in which you experienced an emotion, the emotion tends to come back into your awareness when you access the memory.

Thus, the first step is to recall something in your past that you felt appreciation or gratitude for. It does not matter what the reason was. It could have been something big, or it could have been something small. It really doesn’t matter so long as you felt some degree of appreciation or gratitude.

The next step is to recall the actual memory. Remember the situation, the details of where you were. Bring all your senses into this experience. Imagine yourself actually physically being there. See it; hear it; feel the physical sensations. As you fine tune your memory of what it was that made you feel appreciation, you will find yourself feeling that emotion again.

The final step is to let the memory drop away so that what you have left is the feeling-state itself. As you rest in this coherent emotion of appreciation or gratitude, familiarize yourself with its quality. Eventually you will be able to recall the feeling-state of appreciation or gratitude without having to go to the memory. At this point, you are ready to enter into the coherent feeling-state of appreciation or gratitude several times a day. And remember… practice makes perfect.

Some people are unable to access the feeling-state of appreciation or gratitude either directly or through the memory recall method. This is usually due to many different factors such as neural networking in the brain and especially past history. In other words, when these persons go searching for something in the past they felt appreciation or gratitude for, they come up empty. They simply cannot recall any positive experience that would generate these types of feelings.

If you happen to be this type of individual, you can create a new neural network in your brain that will allow you to experience the coherent feeling-state of appreciation or gratitude even though you have never actually experienced it in your life.

To do this, you will be engaging something called creative fantasy. And as odd as it may sound, in certain situations the body/mind cannot tell the difference between a real and an imagined event.

When you create a healing fantasy, you release powerful healing responses in your body/mind even though the source for these healing responses is your imagination! 

The first step in this particular method is to think of something that would make you feel appreciation or gratitude. It doesn’t matter what this imaginary something is. It could be something really big, or something simple. It just needs to be something that would make you feel appreciation or gratitude.

Next, you start to build the fantasy by imagining yourself in the situation and receiving whatever it is that would make you feel appreciation or gratitude. Imagine yourself fully and completely in this situation, as if it were actually happening. See it; feel the physical sensations; hear the sounds.

As you fill in your senses, the fantasy will seem more and more real to you. When you feel the emotion of appreciation or gratitude rising up within you, let the fantasy drop away so that you are left with the feeling.

Sometimes people have a secondary response to the fantasy in addition to the feeling of appreciation or gratitude. These secondary responses can include such feelings as sadness, regret, or anger that they never had anything in their life that made them feel either appreciation or gratitude.

If this happens for you, allow yourself to experience the secondary responses. The idea here is not to cover anything up, especially authentic emotional responses to situations in your life. The idea is to introduce a new feeling-state that you can work with.

If you let yourself feel the secondary responses long enough, they will eventually fade in their intensity. At this point, return to the fantasy and let the feeling-state of appreciation or gratitude rise up again. Then rest in this coherent feeling-state as long as you are comfortable with it so that you begin to recognize its quality.

Some people with a lot of secondary responses may have to go through this creative fantasy method several times. Stick with it, as both it and you are worth the effort.

When you sense the feeling-state of appreciation or gratitude arising from your fantasy work without secondary responses, you are ready to start experimenting with the coherent feeling-state as described above. Experiment with it. Try it in all types of situations. The more you practice entering into appreciation or gratitude at will, the more masterful you will become.

There is another, often unexpected benefit from doing this practice. As you enter into this coherent feeling-state of appreciation or gratitude over and over again at will, you create a positive attractor. And you will eventually attract to you situations, people and opportunities that will make you feel appreciation or gratitude in your real life.

~ Tom Kenyon

I'm reminded of these two quotes from Abraham:

Appreciation is the secret to life. Become a person who appreciates and you will thrive; you will fulfill your reason for being.

And

The greatest gift that you could ever give to another is your own happiness, for when you are in a state of joy, happiness, or appreciation, you are fully connected to the Stream of pure, positive Source Energy that is truly who you are. And when you are in that state of connection, anything or anyone that you are holding as your object of attention benefits from your attention.

With love, appreciation, and gratitude for who you be and all that you do!

Kryon on Dreams

The following information from Kryon (through Lee Carroll) offers some insight into what's going on with us physically, psychologically, and spiritually when we dream. It was given during a Question and Answer session in April, 2003. Fascinating stuff that I enjoyed reading and pondering. Hope you enjoy it too!

First, let's give you, as best we can, the reasons for dreams, and the process involved. This Human dream function is extremely complex. Even after our explanation, you may not fully understand.

Biological: From a biological aspect, dreams are actually a memory release and rewrite. They are a form of mental clearing that the body must perform in order to actually reorganize the brain during the sleep state. It moves things around and prioritizes the places where memory is stored. In the process, you often get flashes of what it's doing. So this is the clinical truth, not yet seen or accepted by science. Soon, however, as you're able to map the energies of the brain in real time, this will be shown. Remember where you read it first!

Psychological: The memories that are moved from place to place are often done in a priority that's driven by your fears, loves, passions, and even your addictions. This is a hierarchy that remains very telling in analysis, and hasn't changed much through the centuries of Human existence. The nonlinear attributes... seeing people in places they never were, or couldn't be within a real 4D time line, are common, since the brain is moving these things in a nonlinear way. Think of it this way: You're carrying a box of photos of all your life experiences. Suddenly you drop the box, and the photos go everywhere. As you pick them up, they're not in any order. The past and present are all mixed up. As you hold the photos in your hand, your Aunt Sally is next to a home that she never saw, visiting your children whom she's never met. In addition, you pick up certain photos first that have more energy for you than the others, since they're going to be filed in a specific place that needs to be more available to the brain for remembrance. So the brain actually prioritizes the memories in an order that's telling. This is where psychological analysis has been so valuable in the past.

Spiritual: With the coming of the new energy, Lightworker and ascension status has changed all the potentials, and a brand new piece of the dream puzzle emerges. Your newfound awareness is suddenly part of this memory rearrangement. In addition, if you're working at it (being a Lightworker), the dream process has changed its purpose. It's now actually a rewrite of the past within your DNA (in addition to the biological sorting of neuron storage, as seen above)! This is very difficult to describe. Think of it this way: Return to the photos on the floor. Now, as you pick up each photo, you get to rewrite the emotions and energies around them with a new, enlightened mind. The father that abused you is now the "partner in karma," and an entity who did a good job of stirring your life up. The brother who committed suicide and shamed the family is now the one who gave you a gift... a kick in the pants to find out more about spiritual things. The partner who loves you, who may be lying next to you, is becoming more precious with your new divine eyes. So you're not just rearranging the memories. The brain is rewriting them. This is a powerful new attribute that shows a new enablement for Humans, and is primal to the teachings of Kryon and the other channellers of the New Age. Now, the photos you pick up first are the ones that you're rewriting and are thereby changing your very time line in this place called Earth.

The biological and psychological aspects cooperate fully with your enlightened state. They're subservient to the divine plan in your body, and have rearranged the priorities to help you fulfill a change in your DNA.

How to interpret the dreams? Well, those other channellers were correct - if you're working on your enlightenment. For the old interpretations discount the new spiritual aspects of the process. Now you may look at the interpretations completely in a spiritual light. Did you dream of Aunt Sally? Why? Perhaps you're rewriting how you felt about her and bringing her into a new light? Perhaps she's visiting you in an interdimensional way to help you process and rewrite her history within the scope of your life? This is very, very common. Parents return; those you lost during your 4D time line show up. You see, it's very complex, but it has indeed changed. Look for far more nonlinear things in the dream state.

Finally, a hint: If some of you have dreams that repeat and repeat a process or a song or an action seemingly all night (although dreams are actually happening in just a few seconds), it doesn't mean anything. Don't try to read into it. Instead, it's a smokescreen to let the brain and the divinity unify. The brain creates a feedback loop that runs while it does things that are beautiful, out of sight, and filled with new abilities for your consciousness.

The Future - Getting Prepared

I'd been pondering the terms "action" and "reaction", terms that indicate whether we are consciously aware of how we are responding to a situation and "acting", or consciously unaware and (unconsciously) "reacting". I decided to create an article that talks about these two distinctly different states of being.

Then, as fate .. or law of attraction ;) .. would have it, I came across a post I made almost a year ago entitled "Cleaning Up After Ourselves - Emotions and Empowerment". That was a pretty long post, and the concept of action vs reaction and the ramifications on our future of these two concepts, while addressed, got rather buried in the rest of the message. But in re-reading that old article, I realized that it addresses what I'd been thinking about pretty well, and is worth reposting the last portion of it .. though slightly edited for clarity.

The Future

In times past, that is, in those thousands of years before humanity (at the higher self level) decided to attempt to move (back) into a higher vibration as a race along with Earth/Gaia - in other words before "the Shift" - humans were given help in cleaning up their emotional "messes". Protections were in place, and other entities worked with us, to transmute much of the strong emotional energy that we released unawares. While "bad things" did happen as a result of our "negative" thoughts and desires, as bad as some things were, there was not nearly as much havoc created as there might have been, due to the help provided and our buffer of time.

For most of us alive on the planet today, that kind of help is either no longer available or in the process of being removed. We are at the point in our evolution where we each have to be responsible for our own thoughts, beliefs, words, and actions. We must learn how to manage our energy ourselves. If we cannot, we will not be able to move into the higher vibrations. Not because we wouldn't be "allowed to", but because we'd self destruct from the attempt.

In the higher vibrations, manifestation is instantaneous. Can you imagine the havoc we could create if we were to instantaneously manifest "I hate you! I'm going to kill you!"? We say things like that, but usually we don't mean them. All something like that generally means is that we are so enraged in the moment that we don't know how to respond to our rage, we don't know what to do with it. So we say things like that. It releases the energy that has built up, energy that is so strong it cannot continue to be contained in the human vessel. We think such explosions of energy are harmless.

In a protected third-density reality we had a time lag that protected us from thoughts like those. (We had, in fact, and unbeknownst to us, teams of entities who could transmute some of that energy for us). In the time lag we had an opportunity to reconsider, to move off of an unwanted intent ("come to our senses"), and thereby not manifest it. As time collapses, the buffer of time - and the protection it brings - diminishes. Soon it will be completely gone. Will you have mastered your thoughts by then? Will you be ready to see your every whim and upset manifest in your reality instantly?

You can be. Simply by beginning now to be aware of the impact that your thoughts and words and actions have. These are fantastic times. More fantastic than most people can even begin to grasp. Teeming with opportunity! But with the opportunity comes responsibility - the responsibility to manage our own thoughts, our own energy.

We have lots of help. An unbelievable amount of help. Our helpers come from places, and help arrives in ways, that most of us aren't even remotely aware of. In some cases wouldn't be able to comprehend - or accept - even if we were aware of it. Suffice it to say that we are under a kind of Divine Dispensation, given in part to help us learn how to manage our thoughts and emotions - our energy so that we can create "heaven on Earth". Extraordinary help is being provided so that humanity, as a race, can move into the higher dimensions, so that we can aid and follow Earth on her journey there, join her in her adventure.

Take advantage of the fact that this help exists, and ask for it. Tell the Universe, your Higher Self, your guides, your angels, the Ascended Masters, whatever beings you trust or whatever terms you use, that you wish to master your thoughts and ask for help. Use whatever words or methods feel right to you, but ask. Then listen for the guidance. You can use ceremony, you can use meditation, you can get quiet in your own mind, or you can just .. ask. Your thoughts are no secret to those dedicated to helping you. But this is a planet of free choice, and that means that help cannot be imposed on you, you must ask for it, consciously and with purpose.

Begin now learning how to manage your thoughts, to ground energy, to empower others, and to find joy in everything you do. Leave judgement, guilt, resentment, and retribution in the past. Move forward consciously, as if the past never existed - for to create the future that you wish to create, truly the past does not matter.

There are thousands, if not millions, of human teachers/mentors/healers available to help you, if you want help. Like anything, managing our thoughts - acting instead of reacting - takes practice, but as you practice you will gain confidence - and pride! - in your ability. Then, when the time comes and you find yourself in a realty in which your every thought is manifest almost before you think it, you will be confident in the knowledge that you are ready.

As with all things, look to your heart for guidance in who to seek out for assistance in managing thoughts and managing energy. For those of you looking for aid and not knowing where to turn, I suggest - and highly recommend - Jim Self and Roxane Burnett at Mastering Alchemy. They offer a lot of free information and "webinars", as well as pay-for classes, but you do have to register on their website to gain access.

No matter how you proceed or with whom - even if that 'whom' is yourself and your own guides - know that we are all on this journey together. I wish you good fortune, immense joy, and grand mastery. May you truly be In Joy on your adventure!

Grounding the Light

The following comes from Steve Rother's Beacons of Light channel for July 2011 called "Don't Wait". I think it's a terrific insight into what's happening with energy right now and why just being YOU, doing what you love and what excites you, and letting everyone else be THEM, doing what they love and what excites them, is so very important .. and profoundly satisfying. For the rest of the channel, go here.

You have been reaching up into different vibrational levels never experienced before and, we tell you, you are actually stepping into these now. It was not supposed to happen until 2012. However, you have moved everything forward so quickly that we are hoping 2012 will not be a disappointment for you because of the expectations you have.

Everything that you were expecting, except for the final pieces of the cosmos aligning, are being experienced right now. Do not wait! That is our message to you. If you are uncomfortable with where you are, change direction. Do not wait. If you are worried about it being the right direction, that is not the connection for there is no right or wrong direction. There is a motion of forward movement, or a lack of motion.

Once you are moving forward, you can change course or steer in the direction of your passion with no problem. But standing there waiting to move forward until you see the correct dimension or direction is what is causing many of these challenges. Until now it has worked very well for most of you to wait until all the cards are on the table, so to speak, and then make your best deal or choose your preferred direction. But in the higher vibrations these rules are now starting to change. Dear ones, we still do not like that word, “rules.”

So, this is the way you have been playing the game. Now what is taking place is that there is a need for grounding the light the moment it comes in. You are not accustomed to this either, but it is what we are bringing you this year. This is a piece that we want to work with you on from many different levels.

Before we have called it light grounding. There is a technique we have given the Keeper [the channeler, Steve] that he will begin to show you. But re-member that it is not about the technique. Instead, it is about the overall idea of what is happening.  So let us explain this to you, because it is a piece that each and every one of you can embrace today and begin using in your life.

Unplugging from the Universal Subconscious Mind

You walk around all day long experiencing light. We tell you this because it is not possible to be conscious without having ideas. Just for the sake of argument, we will put your ideas just above your head. They do not belong there because they are everywhere. But let us just say that there is a universal subconscious mind that each one of you are a part of. Many times you get lost and unplug from that subconscious mind.

Why do you unplug from the subconscious – from the universal piece that connects all of you? Because many of you are not comfortable with having strange ideas go through your head. First of all, understand that you are like a radio station. You are picking up other people’s thoughts all the time. It is not about trying to keep negative thoughts from coming into your mind, because that is a trap of its own. You try to block negative thoughts from coming into your mind and think only positive thoughts. Yet by doing so, you will build up such a vacuum that you experience all the negativity at once to maintain the necessary balance of pretending to live in a world of duality.

Now you are stepping out of the world of duality. You are stepping out of the black and white world into a world of triality where you have a new connection. You have always seen the black on one end and the white on the other. Now there is a third point that we are calling the higher self, which gives you a new view of the line. You can start to see that it is not black and white after all, for those are only the end pieces that tend to stick out the most. Then new point is actually where all the differences blend; the truth is really in the middle, and not necessarily at the ends where you have always believed it to be.

Light Grounding

Now here is the situation. Even in a field of triality you are experiencing connections and feeling other people’s emotions and thoughts, but you can bring these to a level where they simply go right over your head and do not attach themselves to you. It is not the negative thoughts that drain you, but it is their attachment to you that does. You reach up and grab those thoughts that add to you, and then you ground them. This is very common because you have been doing this from the very beginning of your existence on planet Earth.

But you have been waiting, because that is what happens: You try on an idea. You bring it in and if it works, you think about doing something with it. It adds to you, it helps you raise your own vibration, and after a while you think about maybe sharing that with someone else. After a few months it will happen and after a couple of years, you may actually write a book about what you are working with. You may even start to teach other people about a secret of life. Now everything is starting to shift because of your own connection to the planet, which is mostly water. Yes, we are going to get to that. This is the piece that connects everyone very quickly. What is now taking place is that there is an immediate need for the grounding of these light pieces when you experience them.

Most people will bring in a new idea, then wrestle and fight with it to make it their own. Finally, if they can justify it, they will write it down and ground it. We are asking you to start grounding things quickly. Stop waiting and do it now! Find a way to write something down. “Oh!, I cannot write! I cannot say anything that has not been said before,” you think. Yes, we have heard them all.

We tell you, dear ones, that you have a message from Home that nobody else can carry. It is the reason you are here. Whether that message becomes a painting, book, piece of music, or even a smile or kind words that you pass on to someone else. Any of these can be your trigger, but we start asking you to ground the energy now.

Figure out a way—whether it is something you hear, a thought, an idea, the sound of music, whatever it is. How can you anchor that in your life in some way? Most of the time we just ask you to write it down and express it in your own words in some way. Does writing it down ground the energy? Yes, because it is taken out of the ethers and brought down for you to express that piece from Home. That is the part that each one of you has been hesitant to do, for you have wanted to perfect yourself first. No, because the light is coming in so fast, now it is about grounding each piece as best and quickly as you can, letting it flow through you.

Sometimes when the Keeper [Steve] is speaking to someone in what he calls a channel, as he is getting ready to say something we will slip in a little idea. Every once in a while he stops to think about what we are sharing, and he might even stutter, lose his place or stop. That is because he is taking that idea and thinking too much. It is about being able to speak about the idea very clearly and if he is worried about that, he can simply say, “I do not know what I am getting right now, but I am supposed to tell you this. Take it for whatever it is worth.” That is grounding the energy. That is bringing something out of the ethers, bringing it into the Earth and anchoring it in some way in your life.

You do this all the time with everything you are passionate about. We tell you not to wait for the big picture. Do not wait until you become an author, or until your book hits the New York Times best seller list. Anchor the energy at smaller and more regular intervals. When you find something that excites you, bring it Home. Anchor it in some way to make it a third dimensional reality, and all five dimensions start acting accordingly very quickly.

It is about finding practical uses for everything you are experiencing and anchoring the energy. It is not necessarily that you have to build on that one piece. Because you will be anchoring so many points of light, you will have many more choices about which ones you choose to build on and which ones you choose to go forward.
