Following Excitement When the Blueprint Runs Out

Charlene: My name is Charlene. For most of my life, and most consciously the last six years, I have been pursuing my highest excitement to the best of my ability with no expectation of the outcome. That’s the formula. The results have been marvelous of course.

I have a question that has the potential and intention to affect every single human on the planet. My question is in regards to this excitement, which consists of a varying assortment of related actions and one very specific unique radical intention. This intention is always run on blueprints, and every direction and next step has always come easily. As of my 33rd birthday, these blueprints have run out, and I have no idea how to proceed with this excitement or intention. I have created a belief for the last 22 months that you will be of some assistance, whether that’s guidance or defragmenting my ego. It would be an honor to receive.

Bashar: The idea that you are unable to act on your excitement is just a matter of perspective. You may have a definition of what that means that is holding you back from taking it in the simplest possible form.

When we talk about the idea of acting on your excitement, because it is in alignment with your true frequency—that’s what excitement is, as well as a communication from your higher mind—the physical translation of the communication from your higher mind translates through your body as the sensation of excitement.

So when you act on your excitement, it doesn’t necessarily have to present itself as a large-scale project, as a life-spanning career. When we talk about acting on your excitement, all we really mean—if you can think of no other way to do it—is look around at every moment for the options that are available to you at that moment, no matter how simple they may seem. If you just pick the one that contains even just a little tiny bit more excitement than any other, and you act on that first, you will then create the accelerated momentum that will build and build and attract to you more and more and bigger and bigger opportunities for more expression of excitement.

We will assume, and you can confirm this if you wish, that you are here today because you were excited to come.

Charlene: Yes, absolutely.

Bashar: Well, that’s as simple as it needs to be. When this dialogue with us is over, you can then look around and say, “All right, what’s available to me now as another option? What can I act on? What are my options?” It can be as simple as taking a walk, reading a book, calling a friend, having a meal. It doesn’t have to be earth-shattering. That’s where many of you get caught up—“Oh, what’s my excitement? It must be something profound.” Well, eventually it might be, but it doesn’t have to start that way. Start small, start simple.

If you don’t know where to go, then you always know what options are available to you, and you will always be able to tell which one contains at least just a little bit more excitement than any other. If you are willing to act on that first, it will lead you through synchronicity to the next place you need to be and the next thing that will excite you, and the next and the next, and it will build from there.

Charlene: May I tell you specifically what the intention is?

Bashar: You may, if you wish. But remember that sometimes when you use the word “intention,” it can be used in a pure way, but don’t confuse it with the idea of insistence on a particular outcome.

Charlene: What you would say to a human such as myself that believes on a physical, mental, spiritual, emotional level, to a chemical, molecular, atomic degree, that they have the ability to inspire and lead a portion of the global populace under the principles of peace, love, unity, and respect, mending race relations using two developed methodologies that create and sustain inner and world peace at the same time, resulting in a reduction of mass suffering.

Bashar: The first thing I would say is create a shorter pitch, so that people will understand in a much simpler and more powerful way what it is you intend to do. And of course, the shortest pitch of all, and the best way to demonstrate that, would be simply the actions that you take in that direction, because then you become a living example of what you’re talking about.

Bashar: Are you taking all the actions you could be taking in that direction? Are you using your imagination sufficiently to come up with what you call “out of the box” thinking, and doing things that would be representative of the example you wish to set for others, so they can see in you that if it’s possible for you to live that life, it might be possible for them too? Is that what you’re doing?

Charlene: Absolutely. Do that every day.

Bashar: Well then, why ask the question?

Charlene: Uh, my people told me you would say that, and I tried to ask something where I wouldn’t end up with that result.

Bashar: Why not?

Charlene: Um, do you think there is something missing? What I’m doing is the most fun and the most challenging thing, and that’s wonderful.

Bashar: Challenges are how you grow in life. Challenges don’t have to be a negative thing. You are here to challenge yourself, you’re here to stretch, you’re here to grow, you’re here to discover a new perspective of yourself. And the way you do that is through challenges, because challenges are representative of the theme you chose to explore in this life. Challenges give you the information that you need to be of assistance to other people by going through an experience that then gives you the information you can share with them so they don’t have to go through it.

So it’s good that you are being challenged—that’s a wonderful thing, not a negative.

Charlene: Absolutely. I, there are very few resources for me to follow in terms of what I’m doing.

Bashar: What does that mean? Very few resources? Can you be specific?

Charlene: Um, I’m not familiar with anybody else that is doing exactly what I am doing.

Bashar: So what? Be the first! All right, what’s wrong with that? Nothing. Create your own resources!

Charlene: Yes, absolutely.

Bashar: Well then, there you go. You’ll have enough resources when you create them.

This is all about being bold enough to take the actions you need to take. If you can’t find what you need, create what you need.

Creating Resources and Speaking to People of Trauma

Asker: I’m going to follow on what you were saying about creating resources, and in a slightly different way. When I speak to people about you as part of my highest excitement—the knowledge and kind of finding out my own truth—I have the great issue with speaking to people of great trauma. They often say something along the lines of, “Well, that sounds like a really privileged philosophy. How do I just create my own resources?” Do you have ways of showing them?

Bashar: Do you understand the principle behind when we talk about acting on your highest excitement to the best of your ability with no insistence on an outcome? Do you understand why that formula works, and can you explain it to others?

Asker: Well, it’s based on it being my highest path, it’s my highest vibration, the path of least resistance, the truth for you. And everyone has the ability to recognize their own truth through the things that excite them the most, that they are most able to do without insisting how the outcome ought to look.

Bashar: So often I would say, where’s the simpler pitch to somebody who says, “Well, why would somebody incarnate themselves in such struggle?” And I’ve heard you speak on autism and maybe other cases.

Bashar: There are as many reasons as there are people. But if you want a basic answer, understand again that sometimes it’s easier to learn what you do prefer by having an experience of what you don’t prefer. The idea is to use the polarities in an instructive way.

I’ll put it to you in a philosophical statement: It’s easier to see the light of a single candle when it’s surrounded by darkness. Do you understand?

Asker: Yes.

Bashar: It’s easier to see your path when there is so much around it that you know is not your path. So many times in physical reality, you will attract certain ideas that are not necessarily representative of your preference—that are representative of darkness and negativity—because it gives you an opportunity by comparison to know the difference between that and what you actually are. So if you use the darkness, the negativity, in a positive way, then you will only get a beneficial effect. But if you’re worried about the idea of the negativity, then all you’re doing is adding more negativity, adding more darkness.

Asker: Um, because it’s all about changing your perspective and your definitions of things, because your definitions are what create your experience of reality.

Bashar: So when you take the initiative to use your imagination to look at a circumstance and see beyond how it looks on the surface, and create your own definition of why that circumstance is in your life—that’s a positive definition—then regardless of how the situation originally occurred, regardless of anyone else’s opinion in that same situation, you will always only get a beneficial and positive effect out of it. And that can be the living example that shows others how they can also infuse every circumstance in their life with a positive meaning in order to get a positive effect for themselves as well, instead of succumbing to outdated, outmoded, old-fashioned beliefs that say, “This is that, and it can be nothing else.”

Because there are no facts like that in existence—those are all just perspectives and opinions.

Bashar: So what do you do with somebody who’s fairly open and receptive, gets ten minutes in, and…?

Asker: You say, “Thank you very much, I’ll be on my way.”

Bashar: Because why do you need to force anybody to turn anything?

Asker: No, absolutely.

Bashar: Well then, that’s the answer. You share what you are able to share, they will absorb what they’re able to absorb. If they wish to absorb no more, you’ve done your job, move on. Correct? And by being the light, you are showing the path. That’s it. You have perhaps shown them everything they needed from you.

Remember, we are sharing this information with all of you because this is what excites us to do, not because we believe you have to pay attention or listen or understand anything that we’re saying. We would do this anyway. That’s the point. It’s not about whether you believe us, it’s not about whether you apply any of this. We know that you’ll get a beneficial effect if you do, because from our own experience, we know that’s how existence works. These are formulas, this is physics, it’s energy physics—that’s all it is. What you put out is what you get back. But you have to know what you’re putting out. You have to be clear about the definitions that are creating your experience of reality.

It all boils down to an age-old phrase of two words: “Know thyself.” And the more you know yourself really clearly, you will understand what you have bought into as a belief system, as a definition that you say is true, that doesn’t necessarily have to be true for you.

So we know that all of you will take this information or leave this information. It doesn’t really matter, because we leave that in your hands. We have our own lives and we don’t need to control yours. No, thank you. We have more than enough life to live on our own. But we share this with you because we know it can benefit you. But you’re the ones that have to make the decision that it will and apply it. And if you say, “All right, well, that’s enough for now,” then that’s enough for now. We don’t care. We love you unconditionally.

On Washing Dishes and Finding Excitement in Simple Acts

Asker: What’s my highest excitement in doing the dishes?

Bashar: Well, it can be. Many people find it a very meditative act to have their hands in warm water for so long, and it puts them in the proper state where their imagination runs wild—like standing in one of your showers. Many times many of you have said, “Well, when I’m standing in the showers, I get all these ideas.” It’s like a meditation chamber. Washing your dishes can be the same way.

At the same time, do understand we’re not saying it has to be done this way. But sometimes if something is truly not your excitement, truly not your excitement, and you’re just not making it seem like it’s not your excitement with a negative belief system about it, you could also attract someone for whom washing the dishes is exciting to do them for you. It can work that way. I’m not saying it has to, but it can.

If it is truly not your excitement, nevertheless, give it a chance. See where it takes you. You may be surprised when you actually just get into the act of being present with something like that—how it can be extremely transportive and take you places you never imagined you could go. As many of your Zen monks say, “Chop wood, carry water.” In the simple acts of physical life, you can find deep truths if you allow yourself to go to the correct space from which to do those acts.

The Syrian Migration and Spiritual Meaning

Teddy: my name is Teddy. I have a very sensitive subject. Um, we are witnessing lately a huge migration from Syria into Europe—it’s millions of people. what’s the spiritual meaning?

Bashar: There are many different kinds of sociological and political changes going on on your planet. You are getting everything out on the table, mixing things up, to decide what kind of a world you really want.

Putting everything out on the table all at once and saying, “This is what we prefer, this is what we do not prefer.” You’re mixing it all up because there isn’t much time left in the cycle of limitation that you’ve been living for thousands of years.

So you have to get everything out in the open, in front of your face, to deal with it, to change things, to shift things around in a different way. You have to know exactly what’s going on with everyone.

Questions About Channeling, Diet, Flat Earth, and Eternal Beings

Asker: you were introduced as Daryl being able to channel a group of beings, and Daryl referred to you as “he.”

Bashar: We are telepathically connected to many other beings, but I am an individual. I am a male in my society of extraterrestrial beings.

Asker: Awesome, thank you. And is it possible for others to channel you?

Bashar: No. But for other members of my society, yes.

Asker: So when Daryl leaves his body, that’s going to be the last of this information?

Bashar: No. But the point is, this information comes through many different sources in many different ways. And by the time, in that sense, it is time for this channeling not to occur this way anymore. It is quite possible that we will actually be physically among you anyway.

Asker: Is there an ideal diet for humans?

Bashar: Ideal diet? Whatever works best for your body consciousness. Now, we understand that many of you are accelerating your energy, your life, tuning up, and therefore you don’t necessarily need as much sustenance or as dense a sustenance. But if your body consciousness says that right now you do need something to keep your body going, then at the very least make it the most natural, lightest, organic thing you can, and respect the energy and the consciousness in the food that you do consume. Have a relationship with it that is a positive and constructive one, in much the same way that many indigenous societies on your planet used to have.

The idea is that you will naturally find what you need and what you feel the urge to eat, and the things that you no longer need, you will lose the urge to consume. But please also do remember that when you, in looking at it very often from a one-sided perspective, consume something from nature, you’re taking it into yourself and not only making it a part of you, you’re becoming part of it. So as you consume nature, nature is consuming you. It’s a two-way street, not a one-way street. So sometimes it is one way to allow yourself to identify in nature as nature more strongly.

But again, by simply following your natural path, your natural rhythms, you will know exactly what you’re truly attracted to consume and what you no longer need—as long as again, you are truthful within yourself, honest within yourself, clear within yourself, these things will come about naturally. You don’t have to force yourself to be more spiritual. Do you understand?

Asker: Yes, thank you.

Bashar: Go with the flow of your natural rhythms. The synchronicity in your life will work for you in a natural way and allow you to divest yourself of what you truly no longer need, and you can streamline yourself that way through a process over time, quickly or slowly—it doesn’t really matter, it’s whatever is perfect for you. Does that make sense?

Asker: Yes. Does that help you?

Asker: Yes, that’s awesome. Thank you.

Asker: Um, a couple more quick points. Some respected people have been saying lately that the Earth is actually flat. Can you comment?

Bashar: Well, in your physical reality, I think most of you know it is a sphere. It doesn’t mean that there aren’t other dimensional forms of the Earth on different planes. And certainly on one-dimensional form, the Earth is flat—but only a portion of your consciousness is focused there. The consciousness that I’m communicating with right now does have a piece of themselves in that dimension where the Earth is perceived to be flat. But for the most part, as you are evolving and becoming more aware that you are higher dimensional beings, you are experiencing the reality more in a three or four-dimensional, and eventually fifth-dimensional way. So in that sense, your focus is not really on the flat Earth—your focus is on a multi-dimensional one, which represents itself in your reality as a sphere.

You can see the truth of this—the example of this anytime any of your astronauts go into space and release a bubble of water. Anything free-floating in space in zero gravity will automatically form a sphere, not a disk.

Asker: Final part: are we each eternal beings?

Bashar: You are all indestructible, infinite, eternal beings, even though you are creating the illusion right now that you are finite.

Elaboration: Why You Know You Are Eternal

Bashar: To elaborate: The reason you know that is true is because if you understand the nature of existence, and obviously you exist—existence only has one quality: to be. That’s it. That’s its nature. It’s only “is-ness.” That’s all it is. So if you exist, you are part of that is-ness, and you cannot become nonexistent.

Non-existence is already full of all the things that will never exist. There is no room in non-existence for the things that do exist. And again, looking at it another way: you know you will never become non-existent because, by definition, non-existence doesn’t exist. So how can you go into something that doesn’t exist? You will always exist, even though you may change your form, your perspective, your experience of yourself. The fundamental perspective of all that is—that you are the unique point of view that you are—can never cease to exist.

So no matter what level of creation you’re experiencing, you always experience it from your point of view. Even the idea that many of you talk about—blending with the infinite, becoming one with all that is—will be experienced from your point of view. You will become all that is. You will not disappear. You will be all that’s left.

Life Purpose: One Purpose or Many?

Brandy: My name is Brandy, and I have a question about life purpose. The life purpose question is: do we have one life purpose, or do we have many life purposes?

Bashar: Yes. Well, you see, I was going to answer your question. So would you like me to go ahead and answer it?

Brandy: Yes, please. Thank you.

Bashar: First of all, the fundamental purpose for all of you is the same—absolutely the same. It is to be you as fully as you possibly can. That’s it. That’s your purpose.

Now, how you go about expressing that purpose—that’s a different issue. You can express your purpose in a number of different ways. Whatever excites you the most at that moment will be the highest expression of your purpose of being yourself as fully as you can. And obviously, as you know, your excitement and the expression of your excitement can change throughout your lifetime. So while there are many different ways you can express your purpose, your purpose is the same as everyone’s: to be you as fully as you possibly can.

Brandy: Yes. There’s another part to it. All right. My purpose keeps on shifting.

Bashar: I just told you it would. As it’s not that your purpose is shifting—the expression of your purpose is shifting, and that’s natural because your excitement will shift, your expression of it will shift as you change, as you grow, as you become a different person. You’ll express your purpose differently. The purpose hasn’t shifted—the purpose is still to be you, whatever that means, as fully as you can be.

Brandy: Okay, so I have a family now, and then I’m also a career woman, and so that shift—the focus from a download that I had about creating new systems and being a bridge from the higher frequencies into the third-dimensional frequencies, allowing our planet—what we know here as Earth—to shift the economic system. So as a parent, I haven’t been able to find the balance in time with family and being that.

Bashar: Then you may not actually be acting on your highest excitement to the best of your ability, or doing the things that excite you in the most exciting way you could be doing them. Because any resistance, any difficulty that you may experience in things arranging themselves in the proper timing, would be the result of not necessarily having a clear definition or a clear expression of your excitement. So you may have old, outdated definitions that are holding you back, making it appear as if you cannot do these things in proper timing or in the proper order or have time to do them. That would be a sign that there is some definition within you that is not allowing you to experience your excitement in the purest possible way.

Because excitement is a complete kit. By definition, it contains every single thing you need that’s relevant in your life, and it leaves absolutely nothing out that needs to be in your life as a representation of your excitement. So when you talk about the idea of being excited to have a career, you talk about the idea of being excited to have a family, you talk about the idea of being excited to bring information into the Earth that can help with the transformation—all these things can work together when you have a purer approach, a clearer approach, a cleaner approach to the very idea of what it means to act on your excitement.

The excitement kit—when you follow the formula, acting on your highest excitement every moment that you can to the best that you are able, taking it as far as you can till you can take it no further, with absolutely zero insistence on what the outcome ought to look like—the most important factor—you activate the kit of excitement. The kit of excitement contains the following tools, automatically activated:

  1. It becomes the driving engine of your life, moving you through the life.
  2. It becomes the organizing principle, presenting to you through synchronicity the things you need to do and in what order you need to do them.
  3. It becomes the path of least resistance in your life, so that you experience these things in the most effortless way possible.
  4. It becomes the path that connects you to all other expressions of your excitement, no matter what form they may come in.
  5. It becomes the reflective mirror that reveals to you anything within you that might be out of alignment with your excitement, so that you can identify it and let it go and add its energy to your excitement and grow in that way.

And it absolutely, as we said, leaves nothing relevant out of your life that needs to be there as an expression of your excitement, because excitement is the thread that leads to all other excitement that connects to all other excitement.

So the thing to do is examine your belief that you’ve been taught about your relationship to these ideas, and understand them as different expressions of your purpose—your overall excitement of being yourself. Allow yourself to develop more streamlined, more modern definitions of how to go about relating to these different circumstances, so that you can clear away the chaff, get down to the kernel of each thing, and then see that there is more than enough automatic time and timing in which everything that you actually need to do that is representative of your excitement can happen in the proper order. That’s how it works.

Is this making some sense to you?

Brandy: I’m excited. All right. Thank you. Thank you.


Physics vs. Philosophy: The Nature of Reality

Bashar: Please again remember—we are not dealing with philosophy here. We are dealing with physics. We are describing energy physics. We are describing equations of how the mechanism of existence actually works, what the structure actually is, so that you can understand how to use it as a toolkit. Because it works. It automatically works. You don’t have to make it work. You just have to allow it to work. That’s all you need to do—back off the idea of having to make it happen, and let the things happen that need to happen in your life.

Because your higher mind already knows what those things are, even if your physical mind doesn’t. Your physical mind isn’t designed to know how everything is going to happen. It’s only designed to know what’s happening right now—that’s its purpose, to give you an experience of what’s happening right now as a physical being. The idea of how something is going to come about is the purview of the higher mind. So let it do its job. Don’t try to do its job for it. Your physical mind isn’t equipped to do so. It’s not designed to do so, and it doesn’t need to be.

All your physical mind needs to do is be in the state that is your preferred state and allow the higher mind to bring you the circumstances, situations, and opportunities that are representative of that state. Then act on them in the most positive way that you possibly can, and enjoy the ride. That’s physical reality.

Asker: Do you know everything?

Bashar: We know what we need to know when we need to know it. We don’t actually function with what you call a memory. We simply know what we need to know when we need to know it. And if we don’t know it, we don’t need to know it. That’s how it works.

So of course, we don’t know everything. We only know what we need to know. But we also know that if we do need to know something, we will know it—not a second later than we need to know it, but also not a second sooner than we need to know it. We perfectly trust the timing and the synchronicity of our lives.

Karma, Past Lives, and Animals

Asker: Can you please talk about karma and past lives related to animals?

Bashar: All right. But first and foremost, we have to again lay out some definitions that are a little bit different than many of the ones that the people on your planet have of these terms.

There is no such thing really as the past or the future. These are alternate parallel realities that exist simultaneously with you. Do you follow me so far? Everything exists here and now, all at once, but it’s separated in a sense experientially by different frequencies—much in the same way that you know your television sets operate. If you’re watching one program and then change the channel, the other program that you were watching a moment ago may still be running. It hasn’t ceased to exist. It’s not really in the past. You’ve just shifted frequencies.

So the idea of past lives, future lives—are actually being lived right now by the people that those lives are. And you from the present are just connecting to them energetically, informationally, to download whatever experience and information you may need from their lives in order to inform your exploration of life here and now in your life. In much the same way that they may be doing the same thing with you, taking experience and information that you’re learning and applying it in their lives.

You as a person have never been them. They as a person will never be you, because you both exist at the same time. Now, you might both be extensions of the same oversoul, and from that level as an oversoul, you might say, “I am both of these lives.” But as a person, you never were any other person. You never will be another person, because everyone already exists and every person is unto themselves unique and exists at the same time that you do.

So the idea of past lives and reincarnation is a perspective from linear space-time. You’re describing an effect rather than the mechanism. Do you understand? You can create an experience absolutely—you can create the experience of having had another life and being another person and then reincarnating as another person. But that’s a space-time perspective that isn’t an accurate description of the mechanism that’s actually in play.

Do you follow me so far?

Asker: Yes, no, maybe… yes, I do. All right. Thank you.

Bashar: So when you ask, “Have I had these other lives?” or “What about reincarnation for humans or animals or what have you?"—you must understand the basic framework is that everything exists all at once, but connections are made. And because you existing right now, or focused right now, in a space-time linear perspective, you perceive that energetic connection that is being made from the present as if it’s something having to do with the past, because that’s how you recognize or frame or order or organize your idea of yourself in a space-time structure.

Does that make sense?

Asker: Yes.

Bashar: And so it’s the same for the animals. They’re all connected to what they need to be connected to. And another thing to understand when you’re talking about these kinds of connections is that they’re dynamic—they’re always changing. Many people on your planet have this idea that a so-called past life is always your past life. No. As you become a different person, you might have different past lives, because you don’t need to connect to that one anymore—you need to connect to something else. So it’s a dynamic, ever-changing system. It’s not static.

Karma is simply a self-imposed state of being that recognizes that you may have been out of alignment, out of balance with your true self, and it’s an urge to go back into alignment, an urge to go back into balance, an urge to realign with creation in a more fundamental way. That’s all karma is. It’s completely self-imposed.

Asker: I meant in relation to, for example, if you kill an animal and then you have to come back as that animal—

Bashar: No. It doesn’t work that way. It does not work that way. You can create the experience as if you’ve done that, but that’s not what’s mechanically actually happening. Okay? Do you understand?

Asker: Yes.

Bashar: You can go to another level of your consciousness, a higher level of your consciousness—an oversoul of an oversoul perhaps, or an oversoul of an oversoul of an oversoul—that contains all of the connections to the human lives you have, all of the connection to the animal lives that are also part of the same oversoul of oversouls. And from that perspective, you can experience the idea of being the animal, but it’s not actually happening as a personality shift. Does that make sense?

Asker: Mhm. Yes, yes.

Bashar: Does that answer your question specifically enough?

Asker: It does. Thank you very much.

Bashar: You’re very welcome. Good day.


Hollow Earth, Human Origins, and Ancient Technologies

Asker: Bashar, Andre, you good day. My first question is: there’s a theory going around that the Earth has no core of substance—it’s hollow.

Bashar: It is not.

Asker: Okay. Thank you. However, many people when they explore certain areas on the earth or sometimes actually in the earth in tunnels and caves, will come across a portal that leads them into another dimension. And being in that dimension, they think they’re still inside the physical earth when they’ve actually shifted to another reality altogether. And that’s what they’re calling the hollow Earth. They think it’s actually physically inside your planet, and it’s not—it’s another dimension of experience altogether. But they don’t even know that they’ve crossed that dimensional line.

Asker: Okay. Thank you. Make sense. Yes.

Asker: All right. Um, what can you tell me about the history of how humans—the humanoid beings—came to Earth and how we became ourselves?

Bashar: All right. Well, many of you perhaps are familiar with some of the ancient stories referred to as the extraterrestrial race of the Anu, or what you call the Annunaki. Yes? Well, in coming to your planet many hundreds of thousands of years ago, they took upon themselves the idea of genetic experimentation with the naturally evolved hominid species that already existed on your planet that evolved naturally on your world. You call this Homo habilis. And they added their own extraterrestrial genetics to it to allow for the creation of Homo sapiens.

Now, if they had not done that, Homo habilis would have continued in its natural evolution. And they didn’t do it to every single branch, which is why the natural evolved hominid on your planet actually did evolve alongside you. It’s called Sasquatch. So if they had not introduced their genetic material into the idea of Homo sapiens, you would actually all be Sasquatch today.

Asker: Okay.

Bashar: And since the Annunaki, there have been many other species that have come. A few, yes. Such as those beings you call the Grays, which are actually not exactly alien beings—they are mutated humans from a parallel Earth that destroyed itself, that had to tunnel into your and other realities where viable human DNA allows them to recreate their civilization and create the hybrids of which our civilization is one group. This is why we engage with all of you—because we are literally genetically family, and we are assisting you with this information to give you an opportunity to not go down the same path that destroyed their version of Earth.

Asker: Okay. Yes, yes. Um, and how did the Incas cut those stones and move them and shape them in such perfect ways?

Bashar: There are a variety of technologies that have been lost to your civilization. A lot of it has to do with sound frequencies. A lot of it has to do with understanding certain kinds of plant chemistries that can actually soften rock. There are many different things that have been lost to your knowledge.

Asker: Did it have to do with extraterrestrial assistance in certain cases?

Bashar: Yes, but not necessarily as often as you think. Many of the ancient races also had the ability to do what you call out-of-body travel, and thus they learned things on higher dimensions and simply brought the knowledge back and applied it. You can do this too, and many of you do.

Asker: Mhm. Does that help?

Asker: Yes.

Asker: And one more. Um, can you give us any prediction, um, any information about the future of ascension for humanity in the near future?

Bashar: All right. Well, first and foremost, again, another caveat, another explanation of the idea of prediction: there’s no such thing as a prediction of the future. A prediction is a sensing of the energy that exists at the moment the prediction is made. Now, if that energy has momentum behind it, has a lot of inertia behind it, and is unlikely to change, then it can perhaps manifest or come to pass. But if the energy changes, then the prediction is rendered obsolete. And in fact, sometimes hearing a prediction—which is a sensing of the energy that exists at that moment that seems most probable, most likely—hearing the prediction can actually change the energy, because now you know what the probability is, and if you don’t prefer that outcome, you can actually change it and render the prediction obsolete.

Okay? Because you have many probable parallel reality futures to pick from. Some of them have a lot of momentum behind them because your collective consciousness has agreed that this is the direction you will go in in general. You definitely are heading in the direction and are in the process of ascending, which again is just raising your frequency to be more in alignment with your true self—which is why it’s so important to act on your highest excitement, because that’s what it does for you. And if you were not ascending, it is very improbable we would be having these conversations.

So we, in a sense, are a marker that your frequency is shifting, because now it’s probable that you can have conversations with beings from other dimensions, other realms, other realities. This is becoming more natural in your society, and it can continue if that’s the path you have set yourself on.

In terms of the idea of open extraterrestrial contact, the most likely probability for this to begin—and being representative of having arrived at an ascension point that is sufficient for open contact to occur—as we read the energy now, is most likely between your years of 2025 and 2033. Beyond that, absolutely no later than 2050, as we read the energy now.

You can accelerate it, you can stretch it out. Each person also may experience this in a slightly different way, because each and every one of you is a different reality. You’re just agreeing to create what appears to be a similar reality, but it’s not the same one. As many people are here, that’s how many realities are actually here.

So the idea also is to remember that you actually never change the earth that you’re on. You change yourself, and you shift to another version—another parallel reality version of earth that is already more reflective of the change you’ve made within yourself. That’s how it works. You never change the Earth you’re on. That Earth still exists. The Earth that you were on five minutes ago still exists somewhere else, and you’re not on it anymore—you’re not focused on it anymore. As this you, a version of you is still there perhaps, but not this version. You’re now on a different Earth because you’re a different person moment to moment to moment.

You’re constantly shifting through billions of parallel realities with your consciousness every second. That’s what creates the experience you call time. Time is a side effect of your consciousness shifting through different frames of parallel realities, creating the continuity illusion of time and space—just like the frames on a film strip that you project on a screen to create the illusion of movement in a movie. Each frame is its own reality and has absolutely no movement, no experience whatsoever in it. But when you shine your consciousness through that frame and another and another and another, like a projector light, you then are shifting billions of times a second to create an illusion of change and movement in space and time. And that’s how you experience the idea of discovery and growth.

But it’s your consciousness experience. Okay? Does that help?

Asker: Yes.

Asker: And would you say that by this time between 2025 and 2033, the majority of the western world, for example, would be consciously aware of the reality of our spiritual nature?

Bashar: Not necessarily. But enough of you will. Please understand—it takes far fewer people in alignment with their true self to outweigh all the people not in alignment, because being not in alignment is not a cohesive effect. It takes very few people being in alignment to create the idea of a collective momentum that overpowers or outweighs the idea of everyone acting separately.

Does that make sense? So it doesn’t require that the majority of your population is aligned that way in order for the effect to be experienced by those people. The other people that don’t wish to experience that will shift to a parallel Earth where they don’t experience that. You understand?

Asker: Yes.

Bashar: Are you sure?

Asker: Yes.

Bashar: All right. Will that do?

Asker: Yes. Thank you. Thank you.


Near-Death Experience and Connecting to Others’ Emotions

Asker: Okay. Hello, Bashar. And you good day. Um, so you touched on a lot of themes that my questions about. Over the last decade, I’ve died and left my body and I was struck by lightning.

Bashar: No? All right. How exciting.

Asker: And for a while it was really confusing, because I started to channel different people’s repressed emotions and even started to connect to this idea that you’re talking about where these parallel reality, so it’s sort of like connecting to the oversoul in a number of different pieces. And I started seeing how certain alignments could exist on our planet and locally and in people’s sort of ideology. And because I’ve witnessed this, I feel somewhat responsible for the witnessing of this.

Bashar: That’s all right. But just please remember—the definition of responsibility is simply the ability to respond. Okay? That’s all right.

Asker: And I guess in some of the responses, I see some people in pain or in turmoil. And to me, being able to have this extra sense of—yes, yeah, just this extra sense—

Bashar: Connecting to the sensation at the foundation of sense perception gives you an opportunity to understand their perspective so that you can be of assistance to them when and where they choose to allow you to assist.

Asker: Yes. Right. And so what I’m trying to understand is the discernment between these different parallel dimensions, because sometimes it’s quite conflicting. I feel like there’s an aspect that’s sort of like, “Help, I need assistance,” and this other aspect that’s sort of fighting against the assistance. And so sometimes I feel like, am I just not supposed to do anything? Should I just keep my mouth shut?

Bashar: No, no, no, no, no. Let the synchronicity of your life show you where you can be of assistance by sharing whatever it is you are moved through your excitement to share. But be aware that some people may still at a certain point—as we said earlier in this conversation—resist any additional sharing or information or assistance. When you reach that point, back off. Give them their due. Let them show you what path they’re on, because they may need to sit within whatever they’re experiencing for a while. You can never be the determiner of how they need to go through their process. But you can know that if synchronicity has brought you into their lives and them into your life, there is some reason for it. And you can simply give whatever it is you are able to give as a sharing, as an assistance, as a help—but not beyond the point where you start receiving reflections that they no longer request it.

Right? It’s that simple. Does that help?

Asker: That does. Keep it simple, keep it clear. There is no need to be confused about it.

Asker: Right. And then just see what’s going on in the reality, see what’s going on in them. There’s no reason to push. There’s no reason to force. Remember, everyone is an eternal, indestructible being. What’s your hurry?

Asker: Right, yes. So I feel like one of the things I’ve experienced in this is that we kind of inhabit our own limitations, of course. And there’s a greater aspect I think maybe of probably all of us where we are these eternal beings. And it seems like—I sort of say death is a ritual that most believe in, so it occurs.

Bashar: All right. Well, may I let you in on a little secret?

Asker: Yeah, please.

Bashar: Oh, all right. Just you, though? No one else? Plug your ears! Just kidding.

Here’s the truth: All of you right now are still in spirit. That’s your natural state. You’re dreaming that you’re not. But you’re in spirit, having this dream of physical reality. But you’re still in spirit. You never leave spirit—never. It’s not possible. You’re just dreaming that you have.

Asker: So in that sense, is it possible for us to create a dream where we stop going through cycles of birth and death and pain and pleasure?

Bashar: Yes. And that’s called waking up—right into more of yourself. It doesn’t mean you won’t still have challenges, but that doesn’t have to include the idea of suffering. That’s an outmoded idea. Now’s the time for you to let go of the need to have to suffer in order to deserve freedom. Do you understand? You deserve it anyway, by your nature. So by all means, challenge yourselves—but that’s exciting, that’s fun. You don’t need to suffer in order to do it. You can let go of that outmoded definition.

Asker: Yes. So what would you say is maybe a fundamental thing that all of us could do to be less limited?

Bashar: I already have told you. The formula is as simple as one, two, three: act every moment that you can on the thing that contains more excitement than anything else. Do it to the best you are able to do it within the context of the parameters of your society, and do it with absolutely zero—and I mean zero—insistence or assumption as to what the outcome has to look like.

Even the idea of assuming that what excites you has to come to fruition is an expectation you need to drop. Because many times, the thing that excites you—the form the excitement comes in—doesn’t mean that that thing has to come to fruition. It may only be exciting you just to get you to move into a different state of being, and then the thing that you really need to do is more easily presented to you. So never assume that the thing that excites you has to be the thing that comes to fruition. It might, but you don’t know that. So never assume that you know that, because you don’t know that. There might actually be something better to come along, and very often there is.

When you understand that your visualization of what you believe to be the ideal outcome is actually a limitation on what could happen, you will start to drop the need for that outcome to happen in the way your physical mind has seen it. By all means, you can use visualization as a symbol of the energy state of the ideal outcome. Seeing an ideal outcome in your mind’s eye gets you excited about the probability that that might happen. But don’t become insistent that it must happen the way your physical mind sees it. Just maintain the state of excitement it put you in, and drop the picture utterly.

When you surrender the picture, you are surrendering to the higher mind, to all that is, to source—and you’re allowing it to then fill the space with the manifestation that is actually representative of the state of being that the visualization put you in. So the visualization is a tool. It’s a tool. It’s a symbol. It’s a representation. And quite often, it is actually far more limited than what your higher mind could actually bring you, which might be far, far grander. So don’t limit yourself by assuming that the tool is the end-all-be-all. It’s just a tool to get you in the proper state to allow what really needs to happen to happen.

Asker: Makes sense. Total.

Bashar: Does this help?

Asker: Yes. Why? Thank you. Thank you.


Stuck in Patterns of Fear

Asker: Bashar, are you good day? Good day. Speak up. Speak up. Sorry, I wasn’t close enough. I have a question for individuals and societies that are stuck in patterns of fear.

Bashar: No one is stuck. The answer is to understand that it’s all about how you define yourself. And the idea of being stuck is not a fact—it’s a belief. So if you can get in touch with the belief about why you believe you’re stuck and recognize that it is just a nonsensical, illogical belief that has nothing to do with your true self, then you will drop that belief and you will no longer feel stuck. That’s how it works.

Every single experience you have, every single experience you can ever have in physical reality, is the result of something you believe to be true. Yes? So when you get in touch with what those definitional beliefs are, then once you make them conscious instead of leaving them in the unconscious mind, it will make sense why you’re experiencing things the way you’re experiencing them. Because everything you experience—every emotion you have, every circumstance you experience, every thought you have, and every behavior you have—stems from something you believe to be true first.

So you can always trace your behaviors, your thoughts, your emotions, your experiences back to what you must believe to be true in order for you to be experiencing the situation this way. And it doesn’t even mean that the situation has to look any different on the surface. The true measure of change is not whether the outside world changes—it’s whether or not you respond differently to it, even if it still looks the same. That’s the proof you’ve changed. And when you truly have changed, then the outside, more often than not, will change to reflect that.

But if you need the outside to change in order to prove to yourself that you’ve changed, you’re working it backwards, because you’re still making the change conditional on what happens on the outside instead of just making a statement of what is true for you. Because it doesn’t matter how the circumstance may look—you can still get a beneficial effect from any circumstance if you give it a positive meaning for yourself. So who cares how it looks? If all circumstances can give you a positive outcome, that’s why the outside doesn’t have to change in order for you to experience a very different reality, even in the very same circumstance that might have felt negative a moment ago.

Does that make sense?

Asker: It does.

Bashar: Does this help?

Asker: It does.

Bashar: So look to the definitions anytime you feel stuck. Remember that you can’t have a feeling in a vacuum. The feeling must be coming from something you believe to be true—some definition within you that you’re unaware of. Ask the question: “What would I have to believe is true about myself in relation to this circumstance that allows me to feel the way I do?” If you’re willing to hear the answer in some way, shape, or form—whether in dreams and synchronicity, what have you—the answer will come, and the definition will present itself to you if you’re willing to hear it.

And once you identify it, you will usually find, more often than not, that any definition that is negative in that way, out of alignment with your true self, doesn’t even belong to you. It probably came from your parents, from your schooling, from your society, from your friends—and you’ve just bought into it as if it’s a fact. But when you realize that it’s just an opinion, it’s just a belief, it’s just a perspective, and that it really belongs to someone else’s process, then you can let it go.

The facts—in the sense, the definitional facts that belong to you—weigh nothing. If you feel like you’re dragging baggage around, it’s because the bags belong to someone else. You understand? Your own bags weigh nothing. So that’s how you can tell the difference.

Does that make sense?

Asker: It does. Thank you.

Bashar: Does that help you?

Asker: It does.

Asker: I have one second question. Yes. When somebody is in a fear vibration, how can they in a sense quantum leap from that into what they know is their true selves?

Bashar: When they’re in fear, redefine fear. What is fear? Fear is a messenger knocking on your door saying, “Hey, I’m attempting to get your attention to let you know you’re holding on to a belief that doesn’t serve you.” That’s what fear is. Redefine it, and then you can go, “Oh, thank you, fear. You’re a good friend for letting me know something I need to know about myself. Thank you for doing your job so well. Now you can go on your way, because you’ve delivered your message.”

Now pay attention to this—I’ll be a little bit more precise about it. Every single belief system has one common trait, and that is it does everything in its power to perpetuate itself. So the negative beliefs will use fear to perpetuate themselves. And the barometer is actually paradoxical: the greater the fear, the closer you are to freedom. Because that means the negative belief is using every trick in the book to get you to be afraid to change. And so the greater the fear means it’s having to work that much harder because you’re that much closer to letting that negative belief go.

So don’t be duped by the fact that the fear escalates. It’s just the negative belief using every single trick in its book, every single smoke and mirror, every single lie that it can, to convince you of the reality of the negative belief so you won’t let it go—because that’s what it’s designed to do. But if you know that and you know it’s just smoke and mirrors, you know it’s just a trick, then you can see behind the curtain and say, “Oh, good one. Thank you. You almost had me there. But I know it’s just a belief, and what I really know is any belief can be changed. So your tricks can’t work on me.”

You see, this quality, this trait of negative beliefs, is actually the origin of the ancient biblical phrase “the father of lies.” Do you understand? Negative beliefs have to lie to you to convince you that they’re real—whereas positive ones don’t, because they are the truth. But the negative ones—no, they’re not. So they have to give you falsehoods about yourself: “You’re not worthy. You’re not deserving. Don’t try. You’ll fail, and won’t that feel terrible. Stay here in this safe little dark corner where you never have to worry that you’ll fail.” It has to give you all of these falsehoods to convince you to stay there, because it’s not the truth. So it has to work that much harder. And the way it works harder is by amping up the fear.

But that’s how you know you’re really close to freedom. As you say on your planet: darkest before the dawn. Most fearful before the breakthrough. So laugh at the fear. “Haha! Good one! Nice try! You’re doing your job well done, but I’m not buying it anymore.” You understand?

Asker: I do.

Bashar: Does that help?

Asker: That helps tremendously. Well, thank you. Thank you.


Old Soul, Spiritual Guides, and Connection to Sirius

Asker: Hello, I’m Shia. All right. Good day to you. Um, I’ve had a couple of questions. Yes. First of all, for as long as I can remember, I’ve always had this voice in my head that’s always been leading me when I had fears, or has told me something when I’m stuck in a place. Yes. And in that line, there are things that happened to me—I can recall things from as far back as when I was two, like what I was wearing, to what day it was. And sometimes when I dream, I can imagine this one moment, and it normally does happen to me a while after, while I’m awake.

Bashar: And you’re simply tapping into what we call the template level reality, where you lay out the blueprint of your physical experience. And therefore, by tapping into it and being aware of it, you can see what you’ve already set up for your physical life coming to pass and recognize it when it happens.

Asker: Well, that’s very helpful. Thank you. And um, I would just like to know what all these things mean—like if I have a spiritual guide?

Bashar: Yes, of course. You all have guides. What you’re hearing is your own higher mind and some of your spirit guides, and maybe a few other beings here and there that tap in when they need to. You all have a big support system. You know, you’re never alone—not really.

Asker: Thank you. Another question I have is, almost every person I’ve met has said that I’ve had an old soul. An old soul?

Bashar: Old soul idea. Really? Since you’re all eternal and infinite anyway, it’s simply a perspective that a particular being may have connections—many, many connections of experience into a particular reality. So an old soul is someone who has a lot of experience in a particular reality. It doesn’t mean you’re actually older than any other soul on that level.

Asker: Yeah, yeah, for sure. So it would mean that I would have like another soul in a different—

Bashar: It means you are making connections to many other lives that are having different experiences that all inform you in this life. And you may be connecting to more than average. Many people might be connecting to, oh let’s say, several hundred other lives simultaneously. Maybe old souls will be connecting to several thousand lives simultaneously. And from the linear space-time perspective, that’s what makes them seem old—because the physical human mind can’t quite imagine how all that experience could happen if you weren’t old. But it’s just because you’re tapping into so many sources of information.

Asker: Thank you. Does that help?

Asker: Yes. I have another question. I’m sorry.

Bashar: Why are you apologizing?

Asker: Because I think I’m wasting a lot of time.

Bashar: You are not wasting anything. Everyone has the ability to learn something from what you’re sharing. Okay.

Asker: Thank you. Um, I’ve always had a connection with water. Like every time I go to a beach, I would just want to live in the ocean forever.

Bashar: Well, you have a very strong connection to Sirius and the dolphin energies. Do you go and play with the dolphins?

Asker: I actually have—I’ve gone diving with dolphins, and I have like a connection.

Bashar: So you’re exemplifying a recognition that you have a very strong connection to the star system of Sirius, to whom the dolphins are also telepathically connected. And it’s one of the strong connections that you have that you’re playing out in this life.

Asker: Thank you. I also have the same—

Bashar: Nothing to do with it. I have.

Asker: I also have the same connection with nature in that sort—what does that mean?

Bashar: What do you mean, “What does it mean?” It means you have a strong connection to nature. No, so that you can use that connection to inform your life, to apply that energy, that state of being. To act from the state of being you find yourself in in nature, and act from that state of being in everything that you do will allow you to act in the most aligned way to your true frequency. You’re using nature as a reflection to understand your true state of being, your true essence. So act from that state of being, and you’ll always be in alignment with yourself. That’s what nature is showing you—that you are a part of nature too. So use your nature, your true nature, in life.

Asker: My last question is, when you were talking about how everyone has a spirit and that you’re dreaming and that reality is just a dream—is it in the sense that when you die, you actually wake up from that dream?

Bashar: Very much so.

Asker: And when you wake up, what area? Like, what place would you be in?

Bashar: Whatever you want. There’s no real time lag in spirit. Wherever you imagine yourself to be is where you will be. Remember, you’re dreaming right now, so wherever you imagine yourself to be right now is a projection of consciousness—it’s a dream. But there is a time factor in it. It seems to take time for you to shift the idea of location. In spirit, that won’t happen. As soon as you think it, as soon as you imagine it, you’re there. Wherever that may be.

Asker: Yes, yes.

Bashar: And I thought you said that was your last question.

Asker: Well, well, no, I was just—it made me think of it. On track of that question—

Bashar: Do you believe in like heaven and hell?

Asker: We believe in them. Well, no—we know that they are states of being. It is possible for you to choose to experience, but you’re the one creating the state of being. Now, yes, there are archetypal levels to it because your collective consciousness says there can be such experiences, and so you can create places that may seem to be outside of you that you can go to, like heaven and hell. But you’re still creating it—whether from a collective level or an individual level, you’re still creating it within your consciousness.

And by the way, even if most individuals believe in the idea on your planet that they might go to hell, trust me—if they actually have that experience when they die, because they believe so strongly, they would. The very second they don’t like it, they’re out of it. Do you understand?

Asker: Yes.

Bashar: Because it is a real experience, but it’s still happening within your consciousness. And the second you think you would rather be somewhere else, you are. Thank you. Does that help?

Asker: Yes. Thank you.


Releasing and Letting Go of What No Longer Serves

Asker: Good day, Bashar. And to you good day. I was wondering if you might offer some advice on releasing and letting go that I could use for myself and also express to others—releasing from things that no longer serve.

Bashar: Well, what keeps you holding on to them if you know they don’t serve you? That would be the question.

Remember that you all have a motivational mechanism. The motivational mechanism works like this: you always—and I mean without fail, here without fail, and I mean automatically and I mean immediately—always without fail will always move in the direction of what you believe benefits you. You will always move away instantly from what you believe does not.

So if you find that you are holding on to things that you know don’t benefit you, yet you’re still holding on to them, there must be a definition that says that for some reason that thing is actually more beneficial being held on to than being let go of. You have to find the definition that makes it appear to be the better choice and find the contradiction in that definition.

For example—an example we often give because many of you relate to the idea of money on your planet—is that many people on your planet are brought up with this idea that if you don’t make a lot of money, you’re not successful. At the same time, they’re also brought up with the idea that the love of money is the root of all evil, and if you are hoarding money, you become a bad, greedy person.

If you grow up with this conflicting belief system, you have to decide what’s more important to you. Well, “I’d rather be a good person”—which according to this conflicting belief means I can’t attract any money. Now, when you dive down and you realize that that actually is the belief that if you attract money you’re a bad person, you can say, “Wait a minute, wait a minute—that doesn’t make sense. There are many people who are very wealthy who are very good people. The idea of simply having a lot of abundance, in whatever form it may come—a lot of wealth—does not automatically mean you’re a greedy, bad, corrupt person.”

So that is a fallacy. It’s a contradictory definition. And once you know that, you can then say, “Well, I understand that I can be a good person and still attract whatever form of abundance I need. I don’t have to believe that it automatically makes me bad or greedy or any of those things. I have seen the falsehood in that contradictory definition.”

And once you see that it’s illogical and nonsensical, it’s automatically gone. You have automatically released it. But it has to appear nonsensical before you will release it. As long as it makes sense—as we said earlier, the negative belief saying, “Please don’t try, you may fail, and then you’ll be even worse off than you are now. Stay here where it’s safe. I know you don’t prefer this, but it’s safer, isn’t it? Warm and comfy. Stay here because it’s familiar. It’s the devil you know as opposed to the devil you don’t—oooh, scary out there.”

When you understand that that’s just a belief, you can say it doesn’t have to be so. It’s not a fact—it’s just a point of view. And now it makes no sense to hold on to that, and so you have let it go.

Bashar: Are you motivated to find the beliefs that don’t work for you and let them go?

Asker: I am.

Bashar: And remember, the process of your life will always be about letting something go. It doesn’t mean you will always have negative beliefs, but at some point, if you have divested yourself in this lifetime of all the negative beliefs you need to divest yourself of, you will still be letting go of things—it’s just that they won’t be negative beliefs. They will from that point forward simply be things that are no longer relevant for you. You will streamline yourself continuously until you have, in your own estimation, served the purpose of the theme in this life, and you will move on. It’s as simple as that.

But again, remember—even if you don’t, you are still eternal. You still have many, many, many options. You can still look at things from another point of view when you go into spirit. Even if you feel the life was not exactly what you would have preferred, it doesn’t matter, because the spirit and the soul always knows how to use whatever experience you had in life in a way that serves the growth of the soul.

So do not fear. Do not fret. Just do your best. That’s all you need to do. You’re fine. Don’t worry so much. Lighten up a bit. Remember, don’t take things so seriously. And the first step toward true enlightenment is to lighten up on yourself.

When You Can’t Find the Excitement

Asker: Hi, Bashar. And to you good day. Have a good day. Um, so you’ve talked a lot today about excitement, sort of using excitement as a compass for your life. What do you say to if you can’t find the excitement in your life?

Bashar: I already answered that. That’s not possible. That takes a real will to not find it. Because as we said, it’s very simple. You are here today because this excited you more than another choice. When you leave this conversation today, stop, take stock, and go, “What are my options? Taking a walk, reading a book, having lunch with a friend, seeing a movie, writing something, painting something, whatever it is.” Just pick the one that contains even just a little bit more attractiveness, a little bit more excitement in it than any other option, and do that first.

That’s all you need to do. It’s that simple. It’s not a big mystery. That’s why it’s very easy to act on your excitement and doesn’t need to be confusing. If you really don’t know what your excitement is in any options that you have, then that takes a concerted effort to ignore what would be exciting you.

Asker: Because I think I’m—it’s difficult to find.

Bashar: That’s a belief. Right? It’s not a fact. That’s a belief. So what would help you would be to spend some time finding out why you think that belief is true when it doesn’t have to be so. That’s one step you could do to clear the way to recognize your excitement more easily. Let go of beliefs that make it appear to be difficult to do so. There is no such thing as an inherently difficult circumstance—no such thing. There is only your belief that makes it appear difficult.

Never assume that what comes out of your mouth is a fact. It’s just a point of view. It’s just an opinion. There are only five facts that we have ever discovered in existence. We call them the Five Laws:

  1. You exist. Nothing you can do about that.
  2. Everything is here and now. There’s nothing you can do about that.
  3. The one is the all, the all are the one. There is absolutely nothing you can do about that.
  4. What you put out is what you get back. No way you can change that.
  5. Everything changes except the Five Laws.

That’s it. Those are the only five facts we have ever discovered in existence. Everything else—and I mean everything else—is an opinion.

So when you hear yourself saying, “Well, that’s very difficult,” stop yourself. Wait a minute—that’s not a fact. It’s a point of view. It’s a belief. And I now know a belief can be changed. So change it to the belief you prefer: “This may be challenging, but challenges are fun. It’s easy because it’s just the challenge, and that’s what I’m here to experience anyway. Oh, joy!” And then it won’t be difficult anymore. It’ll be something else, because you’ve redefined the experience.
