Bashar: So, an earthquake and a hurricane—you really know how to tell a story. Very exciting, very good. We want to hang with you.
So then, in what you have absorbed in our initial transmission, we would now like to ask you a question. Anyone may choose to answer it—it is up to you.
What is the single most important archetypal element that makes the hero interesting?
The villain. The antagonist is responsible for the level of interest you have in the protagonist. Think about that. Think about some of your favorite books and films. Many times you’ll actually be surprised when you think back and remember to realize that one of the more interesting characters was actually the villain. Many times you actually can’t even really remember the hero as strongly as you remember the villain.
The villain defines the hero. Without the idea of the negative side, the hero has nothing to be heroic about. Thus then, in many ways, you can say it is the negative side that allows the positive side to be so memorable, because it is only in the overcoming and the transformation of the challenges posed to the hero that allow you to truly go on the hero’s journey with him or her. For that, you have the villain to thank.
This is why it is so important to not so much push the negative ideas away but incorporate them in a manner that allows you as the hero of your own story to become that much more interesting, that much more well-defined. As we have said many times in these transmissions to many of you, many of you will find that the easiest way to find out what you are is to experience more clearly what you are not.
Thus then, by giving yourself the opportunity to interact with those challenging negative scenarios, by giving yourself the opportunity to let rise to the surface of your consciousness those negative beliefs and to become aware of them, you give yourself the opportunity to have something to transform. You give yourself the opportunity to become an active, heroic individual in your own story.
This doesn’t mean you have to get a big ego—that might be another antagonist that you can write a story around. But the idea is that as you become more heroic, you become truly more of yourself. But the way you get there—the path to being that legendary hero—is the true understanding and the true relationship that you form between the hero and the villain, and allowing that to be in perfect harmony and perfect balance, and knowing that the choice is always there to succumb to the negative side.
But once you validate that the negative side has a reason for being, that it is an equal choice and a valid choice to any other choice you could make, then you go from being the villain in your own story to being the hero because you incorporate both in a balanced way and thus are capable of simply choosing what you prefer without invalidating the negative side that brought you to that realization, that brought you to that understanding, that allowed you to become the hero you prefer to be.
Action & Surrender
Asker: When you are making a movie, what starts the story rolling?
Bashar: The word “action.” So important in living your story is to incorporate all the ideas, all the energy, all the beliefs into actual physical action. Not holding back, because you have chosen to be physically experiential beings. It is very important for you to ground your energy, ground what you prefer, ground your excitement into physical reality, to attract physical manifestation and shifting to the reality you prefer through the completion of the circuit called physical action.
You have decided to act who you are. Do not hold back. Very good.
Asker: The dichotomy of that is I came here to New Jersey this weekend to also surrender. Yes, I came here. I have used my mind for 55 years to try and understand life and existence and reality, and my mind must be tired. It’s been 55 years of intense aerobic exercise, and I’m tired of doing that. I want to surrender to my heart, but yet… I would like to be who I know myself to be—which is bold.
Bashar: So you are willing to act on your excitement, which if you do in the purest form will actually be experienced as surrendering to your total self, and thus will be experienced in a joyful and effortless way even as you act. Is that what you mean?
Asker: I would like to integrate the two so that they’re…
Bashar: That’s what we just said. The idea of surrender doesn’t mean you take no action. The idea of surrender is to start to go with the flow of your true self so that all the action you take will not be struggle but will be joy, will be play, will be effortless. You will still take action, but by surrendering to yourself, all the action will be exciting, will be joyful, will be pleasurable. That doesn’t mean to surrender that you take no action—absolutely not.
Asker: I don’t have the next chapter planned.
Bashar: You’re not necessarily supposed to completely plan it out. Remember that your physical mind has no capacity to know what’s going to happen or how it’s going to happen—only your higher mind does. The physical mind can form just a sufficient enough framework to know exactly where the hallway is you need to walk down. You can let your higher mind surprise you with exactly how you will be walking down that hallway. You don’t need to plan the whole thing out physically.
The idea of excitement leading to excitement will simply be that once you have some degree of understanding of the framework or the structure, then you can simply get on about the business of acting to the best of your ability at every given moment on whatever opportunity has presented itself to you at that moment that contains the highest amount of excitement. And if you act on it without any expectation of what kind of manifestation or fruition it needs to come to, and you simply go forward to the best of your ability, taking it as far as you possibly can, as far as you are able, without that expectation, then that will always put you in the proper place at the proper time with the proper people to know exactly synchronistically what the next thing is that you need to take action on.
Asker: It’s not just about spontaneity—what about the fear that when this little episode of what I’m doing right now comes to an end, what’s going to move on next?
Bashar: Let me ask you a question. What you’re actually saying is—and in conjunction with the idea that you say you are volunteering for your church—you are lacking faith. The idea really is to go beyond faith into knowingness. If you really understand the principles and the concepts of what we’re talking about, if you really understand the structure of existence and how reality works, you won’t have to actually have faith—you can know. Know that whatever it is that is the next thing that happens will be exactly what needs to happen. When you respond to whatever happens with that knowledge, with that certainty, with that attitude and in that energy, then you will see how whatever it is that has happened next will serve you as the stepping stone you actually needed at that moment.
You don’t need to know what it is before you take the step. In fact, you can’t know what it is until you take the step.
So the idea is actually going beyond faith into knowingness. You actually don’t need faith—you need to know, you need to understand how reality works.
Let me put it to you in a very simple fashion: whatever it is that happens next, you know that something will happen. How likely is it that nothing will happen? That likelihood is most probably zero. Something’s going to happen next.
This comes from a lack of understanding of the nature of existence itself. It is not possible for you to experience non-existence. By definition, non-existence means there is no experience. You cannot experience non-existence because you already exist. Existence only has one quality: to exist. That which exists doesn’t become that which doesn’t exist. That which doesn’t exist already doesn’t exist, and non-existence is already full of all the things that will never exist. There’s no room in non-existence for that which does exist.
It’s not actually possible—this is one of the few things that is actually truly impossible. It is not possible for that which is to no longer be that which is. That’s its only quality. It’s the first law of creation: you exist. That’s it. You can’t do anything about that. You’ll change—that’s another law. You’ll transform how you exist, but the fact of your existence is woven into the very fabric of existence itself, and that can’t change.
If it actually were possible for that to change, you wouldn’t know that it had changed anyway because there is no experience in non-existence. If you were to become non-existent, you wouldn’t know it. So what’s to be afraid of?
Asker: I understand why I separated myself from myself to the degree that I did because I went deep.
Bashar: If you understand that, and you understand now you are basically choosing to be done with that, then why aren’t you done with it?
The only reason all of you hold on to something you say you don’t is because you still believe that it somehow serves you in a positive way to do so. What’s your belief about that? Do you believe that holding on to this—the thing that prevents you from being yourself—somehow keeps you safer than you might be by being yourself? Is that what you’re getting out of holding on to something you say you don’t want?
The only reason you hold on to something you say you don’t want is because you perceive or have defined that there’s a benefit to do so. As soon as you define there is no benefit to do so, you’ll let it go instantaneously. Believe me.
So the only reason you hold on to something that you say you don’t prefer is because you must have an unconscious belief that there is some benefit to doing so. If you find out what that belief is and identify it, then it gives you more ability to let that go.
Asker: The safety net—that might be part of it.
Bashar: So you feel you need one because you fear that what will happen? What will happen if you just let go? What’s the worst that could happen? Come on, give it voice. Be bold.
Asker: There’s an element of non-acceptance.
Bashar: Who cares? Well, I don’t give a—well obviously you do, but I don’t. You obviously do. This is what you’re not allowing to be obvious. The belief may be unconscious. You may think consciously you don’t care anymore, but your actions show you do.
Without the action, with the idea of still feeling fear—those are the barometers to pay attention to. The fear and the non-action in the direction you prefer tells you there’s a belief you’re unaware of.
Asker: Can you give me a little help besides asking the question?
Bashar: Have you heard us talk about the idea of the two-word sacred mantra? Repeat after me: “So what?”
Very powerful two-word sacred mantra. In other words, should you decide to move forward and should what you fear will happen happen—so what? Pick yourself up, keep moving. It cannot actually ultimately destroy you. It will only make you stronger because you will have discovered more of yourself.
Even if the modality is extremely scary, even if the scenario is extremely frightening, invite yourself to go through it because you will go through it.
Asker: My fear is it’s too big.
Bashar: That’s nonsense. That’s a fear. It cannot by definition be bigger than you are.
Ego vs. Genuine Desires
Asker: How can you help us in trying to distinguish between desires that we think we should follow—the passions that we have in our lives—versus the things that seem to come to us through our ego that don’t really seem as genuine?
Bashar: I will not help you try to do anything. I will help you if you accept it, because you have to help yourself. That’s what we’re trying to do—no, that’s what you’re doing. See how much better that feels?
Obviously if you can frame the question that way, you know you have the ability to discern the difference between the two and recognize the difference and act accordingly.
Some of the areas seem to be gray in between, such as if you had a desire to do something that would help a lot of people but possibly you think it’s tainted by your desire to be the hero in the story. If you have asked yourself that question, then you can deal with that question knowing that if you really, really were being completely negatively egotistical, you probably wouldn’t have thought of the question.
In other words, knowing that you might be doing it out of a negative ego gives you the opportunity to realize whether or not you are, and thus it gives you something to work with. It allows you to know that if you truly had been in your negative ego, it wouldn’t have dawned on you to wonder whether you were in your negative ego.
You automatically can see that you have your own check and balance system and thus then you have the ability to discern the difference between the two. Always ask yourself: “Am I doing this for a positive or a negative idea?” Take a moment and find out what’s going on with you. You have the ability to discern the difference, or you wouldn’t have had the capacity to even ask such a question.
Are there times when there are both mixed together? No, it’s one or the other. We understand that sometimes we say “this and that,” but in that context it doesn’t apply directly to the moment of action. You are employing one belief or another, one state of being or another in any given action. Even if the action seems to be a hybridization of many different qualities, that’s still its own definition and its own state of being and its own action. It’s just being defined as if it’s a blending of other things.
Question 3: Synchronicity & Music
Asker: Thank you for who you are. I have a statement and a question and a request. The statement is: five years ago I had the opportunity to ask you a question, and that happened to be on my dad’s birthday—the 21st of May. Today it happens to be my birthday. What a synchronicity.
Bashar: Happy birthday. Synchronicities in that way are often simply markers that you are creating for yourself to let you know that you’re on your own true path, that you’re staying in the vibration you prefer. Synchronicities are like road signs that let you know you’re on the road you prefer to be on. Often times in your reality this will happen with numbers—it’s quite common. You’ll see certain numbers over and over again. These are synchronous road markers that you’re giving yourself to let you know you’re in the vibration that you prefer.
Asker: I see myself like a flicker of consciousness in a sea of consciousness of love. We just pop in and out of our realities all depending on our vibration.
Bashar: That was a statement, not a question.
Asker: My question is about a dream I had about a being who was like a prince, a really powerful flicker that has been traveling the universe for a long time. He was interested in seeing what’s happening on planet Earth. Could you tell me something about him?
Bashar: It’s another aspect of you visiting yourself from a higher level to allow you to understand what your potential is, what you’re capable of, what you can mirror, what you can reflect in your reality in your own way—like looking into a cosmic mirror. So it’s like getting a message directly from your higher self: “This is what you truly are. Be more this, and you will be more in alignment with your true self.”
Asker: Music is my favorite thing. There’s a software called Nexus—just as your ship. Could you channel your ship to tell me something about music?
Bashar: The ship is always part of the channeling in that our consciousnesses are blended. The idea again is that it is simply all about vibration, which you already know. When you experiment and explore the concept of resonant vibrations, especially those that are representative of states of being that you prefer, then from that state, creating music from that state will always allow the music to express that state.
Question 4: The Hurricane & Shifting Realities
Asker: Can we get rid of the hurricane? Can we make it go away?
Bashar: No. But you can shift to a reality where it doesn’t exist. Remember, all change is simply a shift to a parallel reality with different conditions. You don’t ever actually change any one reality—you simply shift out of it.
If you think of it in terms of shifting to avoid danger, you’re actually locking yourself into it because you’re approaching it from a negative vibration of fear, as opposed to simply shifting into a reality that is representative of what you prefer in positive terminology.
At the same time, whatever does happen, respond to it in a positive way. It’s not about whether the outside changes—it’s about whether you change in relation to it. That’s what tells you you’ve actually changed, not that the outside has changed. Very often the outside will not change because all things on the outside are just illusions and can serve double duty.
If you respond to it in a different way than the way in which you used to—that you say you don’t prefer—then you’ve proven to the universe that you’ve actually changed, and then you give the universe the best opportunity to reflect the change in an outward illusionary way. But it isn’t about whether or not the outside changes. It’s about whether or not you respond differently, even if it stays the same. That proves you’ve changed.
Remember, physical reality is just a mirror. If you see the reflection in the mirror frowning, you don’t go over to the mirror and try to change the expression on the reflection’s face—that will never work. When you change the expression on your face, then the mirror’s reflection has no choice but to smile back at you. But if you make it a condition that the reflection has to change first in order to prove that you’re happy, then the mirror reflection will continue to frown because it can’t change before you do.
The paradox is when you allow what is happening to be what needs to happen and have a different attitude and energy toward it, you give it the best opportunity to let you shift to a reality where another reflection can be given to you.
There is no will of God—there’s no such thing. God’s will is your will because you are God. You are all aspects of creation. Whatever you decide is true for you is the will of God for you, because the whole idea is that you were created to be a unique facet, a unique aspect of creation. If you don’t act like the you you were created to be, then in that sense you’re not being true to yourself—you’re not actually being true to the aspect.
The whole idea of the physical life is to experience the process, experience the transformation, experience the story—the unique story you are.
Question 5: Story Structure & Career
Asker: You mentioned the story writing and Joseph Campbell’s hero’s journey came to mind. Is that a good story to follow to write your own story?
Bashar: There was a reason why you thought of that. Whatever you are attracted to is what works for you. Whatever you’re not attracted to doesn’t work for you. Use what you are attracted to. If you change your mind about what attracts you tomorrow, use that. Whatever you’re attracted to, you’re attracted to because that’s what’s working for your vibration right now. You don’t have to ask “will this work?” You can decide “this will work” or it won’t.
All tools, all techniques, all rituals, all objects are just a permission slip. That’s all it is. It’s something that allows you to align that idea, that trigger, that tool with your belief system to allow yourself to give yourself permission to be more of who you are. Those things aren’t doing anything anyway—you’re doing it. But you’re attracting yourself to a permission slip that for some reason, based on how you’ve arranged your beliefs, somehow by incorporating that ritual you have a belief that it will help you, and thus that’s what actually helps you—is that you are willing to give yourself permission to be more of who you are because your beliefs say that’s what will happen if you use that technique.
It’s up to you to decide when you do and don’t need those permission slips. If you understand that everything is a permission slip, then anything can be a permission slip, and you can recognize that whatever you are excited to use, whatever you’re attracted to use, will be the permission slip du jour. If it changes tomorrow, that’s what will work for you that day.
Asker: I’ve been contemplating a new career, helping people create change in their life based on my own story.
Bashar: Whatever excites you the most will attract those who can relate to it. There are no two in that sense. We have said many times the idea of coinage on your planet: you have a coin, it has two sides. There’s no one-sided coin. If you have something to give, there is an audience to receive it, or you would not be excited about giving that thing, because the universe—creation—doesn’t do pointless things. If you exist in a reality where you have something to give, the thing that excites you the most, then there is someone who wants to receive it from you, just that way and no other.
The nervousness tells you you have beliefs that are out of alignment. As soon as you realign them, as soon as you transform them, then the nervousness and the anxiety transforms back into excitement because it’s the same energy. That gives you the opportunity to find out what those beliefs are. The fact that you experience the nervousness is exciting because the nervousness is letting you know you have unconscious beliefs that you don’t prefer, and that’s exciting to discover because now you have something to work with, now you have something that you can use in your story in a conscious way.
Asker: I always feel that my daughter is a very evolved individual—more so than myself.
Bashar: Many of the children that have been being born on your planet in recent times within the last few decades are not just a new generation—they are a new species, really. You will find that many of them are not forgetting as much of who they are. That’s what you’re picking up on. You sense the connection that they know who they are, and thus they become the teachers of the parents.
Question 6: Ascension & Energetic Body
Asker: I’ve been consciously creating merkabas and expanding my light body, working on integrating light and dark, with the intention to ascend.
Bashar: The best and simplest way to do that is to experience it and act on your excitement every moment that you can. That is the simplest way to do all of that all at once. Instead of piecing it out, detailing it out, having to focus on so many components, why not let it all simply happen automatically, synchronistically, and effortlessly by simply allowing yourself to act on the thing that excites you the most, which is always going to be representative of the vibration of your true highest self at any moment?
Asker: I was hoping you could see my energetic body and if I’ve expanded to the Fifth Dimension.
Bashar: If you were truly completely in the Fifth Dimension, you would not be in physical reality. The idea is that all of you have counterpart selves—versions of yourselves that are on all different dimensional levels. It’s not really about you expanding to the Fifth Dimension. It’s about you connecting to yourself already there so that you can bring that energy down to earth and express it in a way that will allow you to shift to a parallel reality that is more representative of the vibration you prefer to experience as a physical being.
Asker: I had a vision of gold specks in the sky that turned into a spaceship, and a beam of light came into my forehead. A friend levitated to my window and placed a baby in my hands. Could you interpret this?
Bashar: It is from the race we call the Shalaya or Yahyel—the first hybrids who will interact openly with your world. Many of you have chosen to be part of the program of generating hybrid beings. Eventually the hybrid children will be brought to your physical reality.
Asker: That’s pretty exciting.
Bashar: We think so. So in that sense, you could say you may eventually have a hybrid baby in this reality.
Question 7: The Shaman & The Sorcerer
Asker: My story is a beautiful story—filled with peaks and valleys. I have a chapter called “The Shaman and the Sorcerer.” It has to do with understanding my dark side and my light side.
Bashar: We all contain this yin and yang, this male and female polarity. Balancing that polarity has been such a strong force in your story.
Asker: Sorcerers can send energy to people.
Bashar: And if it is accepted, then the person can experience an effect from that, but it has to be accepted. It’s based on the belief system to allow this thing to happen. If you had it happen to you, you obviously have chosen to or it couldn’t have. You obviously had an unconscious understanding that this was going to be, and thus then it has served you to be able to tell a story.
In most indigenous cultures on your planet, one of the greatest transformational experiences for shamans and sorcerers is to actually pass through death. You’re just living that particular storyline. You learned a lot about the metaphysical, symbolic death—knowing that what you just said—and then the actual reality of what was happening to you.
Asker: I created to be healed by this, that there was no way to heal it except through the Christ energy.
Bashar: Which you provided for yourself.
Asker: I knew these answers.
Bashar: And now I’m fascinated by it. It took the wind out of me this last year.
Bashar: Well, now there’s a wind coming—you can put back in. Let’s set that hurricane—Hurricane Irene—to bring that beautiful cleansing to me.
Asker: What about a protection?
Bashar: Again, it’s all about what you believe. If you believe you need protection, that should tell you something about what you’re willing to accept as true. You are indestructible. You are eternal. You are infinite. You are whatever you choose to experience yourself to be as well.
The only way you could actually create an experience of needing protection is if you actually didn’t need it—because you have to be an indestructible, eternal, infinite being in order to be able to create the kind of experience that you’re not. You have to have unlimited power in order to create the illusion that you’re powerless.
Having the experience of being powerless is actually the proof that you are unlimited in power—because you can create anything, even an experience of being disempowered. That should tell you something about how powerful you are.
Do you understand the paradox in what we’re saying here?
Asker: I do. I’m just dealing with thousands of years of humanity’s belief.
Bashar: You’re not actually dealing with that unless you think you are. Everything exists at once, and what you call history changes when you change yourself. The present is not a result of the past. The past changes with the present because there is only here, there is only now. Whoever you define yourself to be now determines any so-called history that you’ve set up.
Question 8: Following Your Excitement
Asker: My question was essentially answered earlier, but I’m here rather unexpectedly. I’m sensing something energetically that I’m finding difficult to articulate. It’s personal but also collective because it’s occurring with a lot of energetics weather-wise.
Bashar: How would you like it to express itself creatively in your particular life?
Asker: Dolphins at the moment.
Bashar: In what way would you like to interact with dolphin energy?
Asker: Being with them in the sea, swimming with them, being around them.
Bashar: When will you do that?
Asker: As soon as possible.
Bashar: When will you start to take the steps in that direction?
Asker: As soon as you possibly can.
Bashar: No. Hesitation. In this moment, hesitation means fear, which means no.
Asker: I’m afraid it’s not possible for me to do this.
Bashar: What reasons have you invented for yourself? That’s what you’re actually describing. If it truly is representative of your highest joy, what reasons have you invented to block yourself from expressing your highest joy? What circumstances have you created to represent those reasons that you’ve given yourself?
There is no such thing as lack. When you are experiencing lack, you’re experiencing an abundance of lack. You’re always abundant. The question is not whether you are abundant or not—it’s what are you abundant in? If you’re having an abundance of lack, that’s what you will experience. But if that’s not what you prefer, you can allow your abundance to express something else. You don’t have to learn to be abundant—you just have to change what kind of abundance you’re choosing to experience.
Did you not attract yourself to this event? In attracting yourself to this event, did you not sit in a room where somebody offered to take people swimming with dolphins? Didn’t you attract that to yourself? So then, aren’t you lying to us? Is it not obvious that you’re capable of attracting that if you’ve attracted someone that can offer that to you?
Let it be obvious. You don’t need to get caught up in all of these concepts and suppositions. Let what is going on be obvious. If you want it to be more complicated, please don’t let me take that away from you. I can even help you make it more complicated if you want.
Question 9: Career Transition & Resources
Asker: There’s been a major scene in my story that’s been at an impasse. My job was downsized, and they gave me a smaller job—doing nothing.
Bashar: This is a sparkling opportunity for you to take action in the direction of what actually excites you instead of forcing yourself to continue to do something that doesn’t.
Asker: I’ve run out of resources.
Bashar: Nonsense. That’s not possible. You may have created the illusion that you’ve run out of resources, but you can’t actually run out of resources. You’re just not allowing your imagination to be as free as it could be about what a resource might be. You may be limiting your definition of what a resource could be.
Asker: What excites me is traveling around the world.
Bashar: Then travel around the world.
Asker: But how do I do that?
Bashar: You need to exercise more imagination as to what you’re defining as a resource.
Let me give you an example. There’s a woman who’s a fantastic photographer. Her passion was going all around your planet and photographing sacred sites. She had no money. She did not allow her definitions to stop her. She allowed herself to stay in the vibration she preferred instead of succumbing to a fearful frequency. By staying in the appropriate vibration of her preference, she was able to receive inspiration for how she could live her dream without necessarily having the resources that in the past she might have thought was necessary.
You cannot perceive what you’re not the vibration of. If you don’t stay in your preferred vibration, you will not be capable of receiving information or opportunities to show you how you might be able to continue. They will be invisible to you. Those doors will be closed to you if you don’t stay in the vibration where they’re open.
She received an inspiration: “I will go to the airlines and ask them to fly me all around the world for free so that I may take these wonderful photographs of these sacred sites. If you will fly me all over the world for free to these sacred sites, the beautiful photos I will take you may also use for your travel brochures to entice more tourists to these places.”
There was a fair exchange of energy—very important in any agreement. Not surprisingly, they said, “Absolutely great idea!” Not only did they fly her all over the world for free to take photos of the sacred sites, they paid her to do it, fed her, put her up in hotels. She lived her dream like a queen and didn’t spend a dime.
The point being: unless you stay in the vibration of your preference, you will never be inspired to take the steps that would actually show you that such things are not only possible but highly likely when you stay in the appropriate frequency.
Do you believe that this principle will work for you as well as it worked for her?
Asker: I believe it can, but…
Bashar: The answer is no. Let me stop you there. I want you to understand something very paradoxically important here. In some senses, I can read some aspect of your being that thinks to answer “you’re not sure” is actually humble. It’s incredibly arrogant. It’s incredibly arrogant to stand there and say that a principle of creation that works for everyone can’t work for just you. You’re singling yourself out out of all of creation that you’re the only one for whom that idea doesn’t work. That’s incredibly arrogant.
The paradox is that while many of you think you’re being humble and saying, “Oh no, I don’t deserve that, that won’t work for me,” that is an incredible place of arrogance. All you need to do is understand that this is the way creation is structured. This mechanism works whether you think it does or not. In fact, it’s working for you all the time anyway, because whatever it is you’re putting out is what you’re getting back. It’s just that what you’re getting back is a result of what you’re putting out. The uncertainty you’re putting out is what you’re getting back—uncertain situations.
Asker: Isn’t it true that sometimes you have to wait? Things don’t just automatically appear.
Bashar: It is true that there is to some degree the experience of what you would call a time lag within the idea of manifestation, to allow you the experience of process that will enrich your appreciation of what it is you do ultimately manifest. Nevertheless, that doesn’t mean that the so-called time lag or process needs to be any less a part of what is representative of your joy. In other words, you’re not waiting for something to happen. Time lags don’t mean you’re waiting. Time lags just mean there’s another part of your excitement going on that you’re not really paying attention to or defining as part of your excitement.
Because you’re not defining the waiting period as part of your excitement, you experience it as a time lag, as a waiting period, instead of another exciting chapter in your story before something else exciting happens.
Understand that whatever it is you’re experiencing can be experienced as a part of your excitement—as a stepping stone in that excitement, a piece of that excitement. It’s not in that sense apart from it. It’s not just something to get you there. It is in and of itself an expression of your overall excitement.
When you stop waiting for something better to happen, it happens—because you’re no longer waiting for it to happen. You’ve taken the waiting out of the equation by loving whatever’s going on so much that you collapse and compress time, and before you know it, something else is happening, and something else is happening, and something else is happening.
There’s no waiting in excitement. Excitement does not contain the component of waiting. There may be other experiences between this experience and that one, but if all experiences in your excitement are equal, then you’re not waiting for any one particular one to come before any other because they’re all so exciting that it doesn’t matter what’s happening. You’re never waiting.
Question 10: Parallel Realities & Ascended Masters
Asker: My wife and I have been married for 22 years. How many other parallel realities do we exist in as a couple?
Bashar: Within a 15% difference margin: 347,993.
Asker: All the ascended masters said that where we are now, we can do what they did and more. How do you get into that vibration?
Bashar: When you are aligned with the idea of doing what excites you the most every single moment that you can, and acting on it every single moment that you can, you are like a compass needle pointing to your true north—aligned with your true vibration, your signature frequency that is uniquely the frequency, the vibration of you as an energy, as a consciousness.
The idea of being a reflection of an ascended master is simply being the being who always acts first on the thing that is most representative of their highest frequency, their highest excitement, their true vibration.
Asker: Is that possible in our lifetimes right now?
Bashar: Yes. In being capable of conceiving it, the answer is yes—or you wouldn’t have been capable of conceiving the question. Many times the questions that you ask are the answers in disguise. You’ve taken the exclamation point and bent it over into a question. If you straighten it back out into an exclamation point, you will know you have the answer. Your ability to ask the question means that the answer is there.
One caveat: should you be musing in your imagination that you could be 12 feet tall and purple with 50 arms—yes, it’s possible because anything is possible. But is there a high degree of probable relevance to that in your reality? No. You can do anything, but what you will most likely do is what is more highly probable or relevant to your life. You have agreed to a certain degree to abide by certain frameworks of physical reality in the experience you are having.
Question 11: Question for Everyone
Asker: Would it be probable that all of us that are here—if we have a question—that it be answered?
Bashar: Many people have already had many of their questions answered without speaking directly to us. Those that need to have their questions answered will create the synchronicity to have them answered, unless they have chosen for them not to be. We simply trust the process. No other additional invitation is actually required.
We are always—along with your guides and many other kinds of teachers and mentors and spirit beings and beings on other levels and other dimensions that are connected to your world—we are always sending everything that we can. The invitation has already been accepted. We hold nothing back. Anything that is not received by you is not received by your choices. It’s up to all of you to simply open yourself up to be better receivers of what it is you wish to understand. Nothing is being held back from us.
Question 12: Beings on Bashar’s Planet
Asker: What beings on your planet are learning right now? Do they have any consciousness-raising tools and techniques?
Bashar: We simply act on our highest joy—it’s the only tool we need at this point. We are learning many things right now, all the time, constantly. We are learning right now how you will transform whatever situations and circumstances you have created for yourself. We are learning many different things about many other civilizations at the same time. We are learning many things about ourselves simultaneously.
Asker: What are some things that you teach and share with beings that are more evolved than humans?
Bashar: By sharing with them how you have chosen to experience the idea of limitation and also simultaneously chosen to transform it, they recognize—they learn—that such limitation can be transformed. They find that your planet is a very good teaching tool because the great degree of limitation that you have placed upon yourselves and yet been capable of transforming makes you a graduating class of masters. They can see that if you can do that, then anything that they desire to transform would be child’s play by comparison.
Asker: What are you learning from beings that we consider more evolved?
Bashar: We are learning more of who and what we are as consciousnesses, as beings that can transcend a multitude of dimensions—as beings that actually are a multitude of dimensions. That is our true state. We are learning more about ourselves as aspects of the Creator.
We have guides, teachers. Many of our guides are connected to the non-physical consciousness of the star system you call Sirius. They are sixth-density beings, and we learn a great deal from them.
We have learned from another civilization called the Thuk. They had the natural ability to seem relatively normal, but as soon as you turned away, you completely forgot that the interaction happened. We learned that technique from them because many contacts on your planet have already actually occurred between our civilization and members of your society, but you have forgotten.
We use that as a technique, as a barometer, to find out that when you begin to remember that you’ve already had contact, gives us an understanding of how soon many of you will be ready for more contact.
We have learned from another civilization called the Refract how to access all the information stored directly in the event horizon of a black hole. When you can access the information in that way in concentrated form, you have access to all the information in creation, but in a specific kind of frequency that’s very interesting and unusual.
Asker: Would it be possible in the future for humans to visit your planet?
Bashar: Many of you do so in the dream state. If you mean physiologically, yes. It will be possible in the future. There will be the likelihood of open interaction between Earth and extraterrestrial beings sometime between most likely the years of 2025 and 2033. The beginnings of those kinds of experiences can be laid down then, and perhaps within that time frame or shortly thereafter, such visitations can occur in the flesh—once you have learned how to make the shift to our dimensional frequency, which is 10 times faster than yours. We don’t want you to burn out and get lost in the transition.
Question 13: “Shawshank Redemption Syndrome”
Asker: I had what I loosely termed “Shawshank Redemption syndrome”—when a prisoner has been in prison all his life and is suddenly faced with the prospect of freedom and cannot really handle it.
Bashar: You’re saying you’ve been mentally institutionalized by belief systems. This new freedom scares you.
Asker: At the beginning it did, because I began to see the scope of my experience, the full picture about who I really was. I began to get courageous about that image and act on it. Now I experience a white wash—I cannot tell the horizon line, the sky. It’s like being in a storm where you can’t tell the sky from the ocean.
Bashar: In what way are you acting on your excitement?
Asker: I’m excited by a lot of things and I can’t identify the one.
Bashar: When we talk about acting on your highest excitement, if you can’t tell the difference between one and the other, then it doesn’t matter which one you act on. All of those things may be different expressions under the umbrella of a larger definition of that which excites you.
If you can find a definition that allows them all to be covered within one overarching definition, then maybe you will minimize your confusion. If they really all seem to be equal expressions of your excitement, you don’t have to single them out as being “the” excitement. They can simply all be different expressions of a higher excitement.
If you actually find that you have equal ability at any given moment to act on more than one of them to the best of your ability, without expectation, then all you need to do is choose one—maybe even flip a coin. If you are going down the one that doesn’t actually serve you, the synchronicities in that event will show you you need to go in the other direction and choose the other thing.
Excitement functions like a complete kit. It’s the organizing principle and the driving engine of your life.
Asker: I’ve gotten lost in trying to identify the root cause of what I’m scared to do. I’m scared to do it wrong.
Bashar: When we talk about the idea of acting on your highest joy, you have to be honest enough with yourself to know that if your belief system won’t support that, it does you no good to jump off a cliff if you don’t believe you have a parachute. You must honor whatever belief system you have while at the same time taking whatever action you are willing to take on your excitement, until such time as taking action on your excitement to whatever degree you’re willing to teaches you that you can believe in it more, trust it more, expand it more.
You can do it at whatever rate you wish, but always honor whatever belief system you have. If you’re holding on to a belief that you will die if you jump, then don’t jump. Express some wisdom.
Asker: I thought the purpose of acting on your highest joy was to be parachute-less.
Bashar: It’s to have a different kind of parachute. The idea is that yes, there is a version of acting on your excitement that requires no parachute, but there’s also no expectation that you have to get there tomorrow.
That’s why we always say you must understand the importance of the entire phrase: “Act on your highest excitement to whatever degree you are able with no expectation on anything or yourself.” If you find you still have a belief system you’re holding on to even if you don’t prefer that belief system, but it’s making you go at a pace and at a rate that you know may not be your ideal preference, that’s the best you are able to do at the moment. Please don’t add negativity to it by judging yourself as coming up short just because you’re not changing faster.
If you have belief systems that you haven’t yet let go of, that’s as far as you’re able to act—period. Fair enough for that moment. The paradox is as soon as you accept that that’s all right, you’ll probably break through them very quickly. The reason you may be stumped or limited to a certain point may only be because you think you should be farther along. As soon as you are kinder to yourself for whatever beliefs you have, for whatever limitations you still have, as soon as it’s all right to have those limitations for the moment, you will probably let them go. The only lesson you may be learning is to be all right with whatever limitations you may have. Once you learn the lesson, the limitations are gone.
Asker: If you get caught in a catch-22—you’re expecting the reflection to smile first, you get a negative feedback loop.
Bashar: Spiraling down to the depths of despair is a very good time to remember the sacred mantra: “So what?” Lighten up on yourself. Even when you’re in the depths of despair, laugh about it. It’s a funny place to be.
What actually breaks the momentum of that downward spiral? It can. Unless of course you want to heap more negativity on it. The point is you’re in control at every stage, even though you may have created the illusion that you’re not. If you know it’s an illusion, then you can remember to break the illusion at every stage. There’s no catch-up to do. No change is instantaneous. Climbing up—change is instantaneous. All change is immediate, automatic, and instantaneous and total.
The only reason you don’t notice that change is instantaneous and automatic and total and immediate is because you keep changing to things that are so similar looking to the last thing you hardly notice a change has been made. But when you create enough difference between the changes, then the difference will show you that you’ve always changed immediately, automatically, and totally. The rate of change never changes.
Asker: What is the force that slowly, imperceptibly pulls you from a good direction?
Bashar: The idea you’re talking about has to do with your motivational mechanisms and the belief systems you have attached to them, and the things that you have bought into growing up on your planet as true. You have created with certain negative beliefs a kind of inertia. Any belief by definition must make itself seem to be exclusive of all other beliefs, otherwise that belief cannot be experienced as a reality. By definition, beliefs will make it seem as if no other belief is possible except the belief that other beliefs are possible.
When you have bought into a belief and that belief doesn’t allow for other beliefs to be possible, you will feel the tug of that belief attempting to frame you in the idea that that’s the only belief there is.
The higher mind never wants you to get beaten, never wants you to suffer. The higher mind is attempting to tell you that the physical mind has the prerogative to change its beliefs in such a manner that whatever transformations it needs to experience for the soul’s growth do not have to be experienced in a suffering manner. You just need to allow yourself to believe that that’s the relationship you actually have with your higher mind, so that you don’t have to keep beating yourself up by buying into belief systems you don’t prefer.
All pain is the result of resisting the natural self. All of the beatings you’re experiencing are because you have negative definitions that are resisting the natural self. Find those definitions, identify them, and let them go. Anytime you truly identify a negative belief that’s out of alignment with your true self, you will see once you’ve identified it consciously that because it is out of alignment with your true self, it will appear nonsensical and illogical, and you’ll let it go.
The beliefs that are out of alignment with your true self don’t belong to you. You pick them up from other people—your parents, your society, your friends. When you realize you’re carrying around beliefs that belong to other people, you’ll realize that you are behaving as a belief thief. You’re stealing beliefs from other people. You don’t want to be a thief. Let them go. They don’t belong to you. Drop them. They’re not yours.
CLOSING & HOLOT MEDITATION
Bashar: We have reached our timing for the Holot. You may take a short break. We will resume transmission with the Holot meditation.
April: Bashar will be guiding us on a meditation, and this Holot technology developed by Kirby Seed is extraordinary. It’s interdimensional. It will anchor everything that you’ve learned today deeply within your consciousness if you decide to give it permission to do so.
I just want to thank everybody for being here and thank all the volunteers and wish everyone Godspeed on the way home. Let’s see what happens next.
Holot Meditation
Bashar: I say good day once again. Allow us to continue the transmission in the following way. All of you, please take a deep deep breath in and let it out. Take another deep deep breath in and let it out. Take another deep deep breath in and hold it—hold it—hold it—and blow it out.
Allow yourselves to continue to breathe easily, softly, deeply in a very relaxed way, and allow your eyes to focus on the center of the Holot before you. You will keep your eyes open in this guided meditation.
As you do so, you will allow the patterns, the colors, the light, the geometry in this structure to be representative of a reflection—a reflection of your true self. This is a mirror of your energy patterns. You are looking into the eye of creation, a reflection of the aspect of all that is that you uniquely are.
Each and every one of you will see different frequencies, different patterns, different ideas within this overall reflection. Allow yourself to easily and gently drift as you remain focused on this field. As your music plays and as your lights change, allow yourself the opportunity to continue to be relaxed and allow all the imagery to come in that your imagination provides for you.
Let your imagination be your guide. Just relax, let go, and enjoy.
Allow yourselves to continue to breathe, and with every breath, remind yourself—allow yourself to picture the story that you prefer to be in your mind’s eye. See that symbol, see that representation, see that depiction of the ideal story with all of its challenges, all of its excitement. Allow yourself to paint that picture in your mind’s eye. Allow yourself to watch that movie unfold.
As it unfolds, allow yourself to identify with the new you in that image, in that picture, in that film, in that story, in that book—in whatever way you choose to represent this illustration. See the vibration. Feel the vibration of that version of you—the ideal version of who you know yourself to be, your preferred being, your signature frequency.
Allow yourself to imagine and envision all of the things that are in that life, in that story. Even though from time to time as you are envisioning this story you may find that there will be challenges that arise, unexpected twists and turns, you will now know that it is all right to ride that wave, that flow.
Allow yourself the opportunity now to simply drift with that flow, to feel that frequency, to vibrate, to harmonize, to hum with that energy. Allow all other voices to be quiet. Be quiet. Be still. Be at ease. Be at peace.
This vision, though it may only be a symbol, is still vibrationally representative of your true story. Any journey that you choose to begin is a part of your story. Any experience you choose to attract is a part of your story. Any challenge you choose to face is a part of your story—your unique story. A beautiful story. A colorful story. A vibrant story. Just for you. Your own unique story.
Breathe deep in and out. Allow yourself to float peacefully on those waves. Take a deep breath in and let it out. Take a deep breath in and let it out. Take a deep breath in and hold it—and hold it—and hold it—and blow. With every breath out, that story builds a new. The old is swept away and the new, sparkling, glistening spring of a new story comes into being. Fresh. Alive.
Drift now. Drift now in the endless infinite unknown, which contains more and more of your yet untold story. Let it in. The unknown is a part of every story, and how you fill it and what you discover within it—all a part of your story.
Learn to not only see that story. Learn to not only envision that story. Learn to live that story. Be willing. Be willing. For it will just add more beauty to your story as it unfolds, page by page, frame by frame, play by play.
You are on the stage of creation. Spotlight by the light of all that is shining in your unique story. Wrapped audience listening to you, sharing with you, hearts beating together as one. Pulsing. Pulsing. Pulsing. Sending out wave after wave after wave after wave of story, of energy, of being, of love, of light.
Let the patterns sink in. Let yourself discover new patterns. Find your story in this pattern, for this pattern is all stories blending, merging, dancing, singing, harmonizing together—forming the greater whole, and yet at the same time strengthening each individual story line. Each being a thread in a beautiful tapestry of infinite probability, of infinite beauty, of infinite experience.
Just breathe it in and allow the other voices to be quiet. Tell yourself that perfect bedtime story. You are once again a child listening to your parents read the perfect bedtime story. You know that as you drift off to sleep, you will dream a new story of your being, a new story of yourself. When you wake with excitement and anticipation, it will be as Christmas day, as any holiday, when you unwrap presents and surprise yourself with a new chapter in your story—fresh and new and bright, full of promise, full of potential, full of more and more of you.
Beautiful gem, the multifaceted crystal of creation that you are. Your story. Our story. All stories together woven as well. Breathe deep and make it your own. Cherish your story. You are the hero journeying on the path of your life, with twists and turns, ups and downs, hills and valleys, meeting all sorts of remarkable beings, experiencing all types of remarkable challenges, expanding in all directions at once. Going home. Going home.
For all stories, no matter how far afield they may seem to be, all stories lead home. And home is always within you. You take it with you wherever you go, for you are always here and now.
Paint the story. Write the story. Sing the story that is your story. Breathe it in. Make it your own. Accept yourself. Love yourself. Love your true self and all aspects of yourself, for they are all part of your story—a beautiful, beautiful, creative story. Infinite story. Infinite, indestructible, eternal spirit story of high adventure and deep, deep mystery and great discovery and profound revelation. Satisfying to the depths of your soul.
The experience that you are—shimmering, glistening, vibrant, enlightening, beautiful to behold, magical. Shifting constantly. Shifting constantly. Story after story after story, all playing out at the same time—the story of all that is, the story of creation, and your unique perspective of that story.
Breathe in and breathe out. Your story will carry you through your life. Your story is your life. Your life is your story. Read your story every night you go to sleep. Awaken to a new story every morning, still part of the same story overall, but fresh and new. The same but different. Unique from beginning to end. Without end.
