Part 1

Higher Self

199 min read

The pope is a symbol of the higher self. And the higher self is the issue we would like to address this day of your time.

Many individuals have discussed this notion of the higher self. Many of you have wondered what is the higher self? Well, let us explain it in the following way.

The higher self is in a sense the idealized self of any particular life you may have. It is what you are aiming for in this life. It is that which is representative of the combination of goals, of themes, of destinies that you have set out for yourself as the person you chose to be in this life. That which you are bit by bit and day by day learning to become.

The idea of communicating with the higher self in any given life—and there is therefore obviously a higher self for each and every different life—but the obvious idea in understanding that it is representative of your ideal self is to recognize that communication with the higher self is in fact the process of becoming the higher self, of acting as the higher self. Not just simply carrying on some separate dialogue with something above you, for it is you.

It is what you have planned to be to become in this life as best as you can. Yes, there is a non-physical higher extension of yourself that you could say is the higher self. At times you feel you can be communicating with it. But remember it is you. And in that sense you are really talking to yourself, talking as yourself, talking with yourself, convincing yourself to be your best self, to move in the direction of the things that give you joy and passion and excitement because that is the vibration of your true self.

As we have discussed many times with many of you, that feeling of excitement, that feeling of passion, that feeling of joy, that vibration, that feeling is the true you, the true state of your natural self. Notice I did not say your normal self, your natural self.

And the higher self is the goal in a sense to attain in this life, following that passion the best you can, being as unconditionally loving as you can be both for yourself and for others. For if you do not start with yourself, how can you give to others?

Knowing that each and every one of you is a facet of the multi-dimensional crystal of All-That-Is, and that the goal and the purpose of any individual life is to be that facet completely. That is your mission. That is your purpose. To be the you you are now. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. You have many lives. But the you you are now only has one life to live. Therefore, the purpose of this life now is to be the best you you can be, the fullest you you can be, the true self, the natural self that you have chosen to be. And your higher self contains all that information.

It is your self-chosen destiny, your self-chosen form of expression of your naturalness, of your truth. And the best way to talk to the higher self as I said is to be the higher self in physical terms.

Remember, remember, remember—your consciousness is not in your body. Your body is in your consciousness.

And the idea therefore is to recognize that the less separation you make, the less barriers you impose between the concept of yourself as a physical being and the concept of yourself as a non-physical being, then the smoother flow you will have, the greater opportunity you will have to act as the higher self.

And then to recognize that physical reality is not something you live in. It is what you are. Physical reality is you. It is an expression of the total consciousness that you are. You do not live in physical reality. It is simply an extension of how you see yourself. It is a reflection.

The very process of evolving spiritually, of becoming the higher self and the higher self becoming the oversoul and the oversoul becoming one with All-That-Is—in how many ever stages you choose to create that event to take place—that process is the process of becoming the realm of becoming, becoming the reality of becoming the dimension itself that you previously thought you existed within.

So it is more a recognition of integration and actions that are representative of integration of those things that you have segregated and separated within yourselves, of those things you have created to be a multitude of fragments within your consciousness instead of a holistic understanding of motion, of intention, of integrity of action.

Integrity really fundamentally is nothing more than an alignment between your intentions and your actions. That is what integrity is. And as such you can certainly see from that simple definition that there can be positive and negative integrity because if your intentions are negative and your actions are negative then you are aligned and you have negative integrity. You are integrated in that sense. Although the concept in and of itself generally of negativity implies a lack of integration overall. We understand that.

But positive integrity brings with it therefore an acceleration in positive ways because positive energy is generally more integrative. Brings things together, connects things to each other, allows you to see the holistic view.

This idea therefore of becoming the higher self will involve your ability to align as strongly as clearly as precisely as you can your intentions with your actions.

So that you are not hiding from yourself, not running from your fears, but facing them, diving through them, learning from them and thus expressing in your life the new person you become through that process.

Remember, very important. Remember—Fear will never stop you from doing anything. Only if you are afraid to feel fear will you stop yourselves. Feeling the fear will never stop you from doing anything. If you feel it and use it and transform it, then you will achieve anything you wish and you will reintegrate yourselves and become the higher self in physical reality.

And as you do that, obviously you change the vibration of your entire world. Each individual makes a difference. Each individual makes a difference. I cannot possibly stress this enough. Every change, every change—take me absolutely literally—every single change you make within yourself changes the entire universe.

All the gears are connected, big gears, little gears. You know if you have a collection of connected gears where all the teeth are touching, even the smallest gear if it is turned even in the slightest degree will affect all the other gears. It is one thing. You are not isolated in that sense. Every change you make changes everything.

We extend to each and every one of you our deepest gratitude at being allowed to interact with your society in this way at this time. We thank you for functioning as ambassadors of your world and allowing us to function as ambassadors of ours.

The more you choose to function as equals to each other, to yourselves, to us, the more you create the possibility of our direct interaction with you. We thank you for the gift that may one day soon make it possible for us to interact freely with you, to play with you, to join with you, to share with you in ways far bolder than even this interaction today.

Questions

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Nancy

I have chronic fatigue syndrome. I have a lowered immunity, and I knew though this is connected with my mind, my higher self, my spirituality, my physicality. It’s all combined.

I feel that the fatigue that I’m experiencing physically, the symptoms that I get, are brought about by lowering my immunity. I’ve been under so much stress mentally that it becomes such a vicious circle that I’m just swimming upstream and not getting anywhere.

Nancy
Bashar
Bashar
Let go and let yourself float downstream. Why do you think you have to go upstream?
Nancy
My father pointed me in that direction. He always felt I should be doing something, and floating is not doing something. You must swim.
Nancy
Bashar
Bashar
Tiring, isn’t it?
Nancy
Very extremely.
Nancy
Bashar
Bashar

You as a non-physical being basically laid out the general direction and definition and destiny and theme of your life before you became physical. This is not to say you do not have free will about how you go about playing that theme out.

As a physical being, you do have free choice as to how to experience that general theme you laid out as the higher self before you were physical.

Destiny is like a stream, and the stream knows where it’s going. If you don’t float along with it, you will never arrive at the places you really need to arrive at to get done what you really need to get done. If you fight that flow, you are actually really fighting your natural self.

You see the dichotomy, the paradox, the contradiction that exists in your society’s ethic is that it doesn’t understand how to know it is doing something unless it feels that it is struggling to do something. When you are really going with the flow and really getting the real things done, it doesn’t feel like you’re doing anything. That’s the point. Life is effortless.

And when life is effortless, it doesn’t mean you’re lazy. It doesn’t mean you’re not doing anything. Well, it could mean those things, but in fact, if you really are being lazy and you’re really procrastinating and really not facing the issues, life is still not effortless, not truly effortless. It is simply an avoidance, and that eventually will come back to well haunt you.

But the point is life is truly effortless when you go with the flow and don’t struggle. You then really get done what you need to get done.

Nancy
I don’t know what I need to get done.
Nancy
Bashar
Bashar
You should reverse your course in the stream of your life instead of believing and continuing to buy into the tiring belief that you have to fight that flow. For all you’re doing is resisting your natural self, and that will break you down. That will lower your resistance. That’s exactly what has happened.
Nancy
Too much stress.
Nancy
Bashar
Bashar
Let go. Letting go is actually taking true control because then you are aligning with the path laid out by your higher self. It will feel like an effortless flow that will take you exactly to the places in the river that you need to be taken to do what you need to do, and you will generally see what they are when you allow yourself to get there. Use whatever condition you’re in in a positive way. So reverse your attitude and reverse your understanding of the condition you are in. Look at it from your positive imagination so that it will change. Ask yourself, what positive things can I do in the condition I’m in right now? What does being in the condition I’m in allow me to do as I am that perhaps I would not be able to do if I were in some other condition? What does being the way you are allow you to do positively?
Nancy
Since I have been so fatigued, I’ve been in bed unable to do the things that I usually do. It has given me the opportunity to explore other avenues and paths. The more that I follow, the more synchronicity comes into it, the more I realize what’s going on. I don’t really know where I’m going, but I’m having a better time getting there.
Nancy
Bashar
Bashar

You don’t need to know where it is. The structure is created as you move along, not before you get there.

This is very important because this is what your father kept telling you. Plan, create that structure, follow the path, follow the rules, make that structure, and stick to it. When you move in a natural way, you create the structure in the moment as you go spontaneously. No effort. You become the structure itself.

Again, there is that very general path laid out by your higher self. Not very much structure to it. Not very much at all. Very free flowing, just like a river. As you allow yourself to flow with it, you are the structure at any given moment through which the flow of the river crystallizes itself into the expression you desire to be.

You are not attempting to crystallize or freeze the river before you get there. It flows through you. Life does not happen to you. It happens through you. You are the valve, the gate, the door through which you express your higher aspirations.

You determine at any given moment in the moment what the structure of your life is based on who you prefer to be at that moment. At that moment when you make a choice, the structure that is the result of what you choose will automatically bring to you the things that you need by being that person because you will have structured your life to bring you those things in that moment.

And when you change, you change the whole structure, the entire structure. So this idea of attempting to follow a rigid structure that never changes is defeating you, is wearing you down, is forcing you into a mold that is not your natural self.

In your mind right now, see that heavy steel structure laid out before you from now until the end of your life. See its confining nature. Now see that structure blown to smithereens. You are free to be who you are. Free to be who you are.

Let it go. Whatever gives you joy in the moment, follow it. Follow the flow. It will not be tiring if you follow the flow and let the structure go. The structure that needs to be there at any given moment will be there. And it will not be one stick more than needs to be there at that moment. And I guarantee it will not be one stick less. It will be precise.

How do you feel about music, by the way?

Nancy
Oh, it’s very important to me.
Nancy
Bashar
Bashar
When you play certain pieces, the notes are exactly where they need to be. You are following a kind of path. But it isn’t really realized. It isn’t really there until you play it. It’s just a suggestion. It’s just an idea. But the point is it’s also exactly precisely what it needs to be. Not one note more and not one note less. You know when you hit the right chord. That’s all you need to know at any given moment when you play. What is the right chord at that moment? You don’t even really need to know that. You need to be the piece. If you wish to turn this around, you could say that you actually can allow yourself to be the structure and just flow as the structure rather than feeling like you are in the structure. Be the structure and then you can change whatever you want to change because you are the structure.
Nancy
I have a question about the third law… Getting back what you put out. And intention and service. I feel that I have put out the very best I had in me with the best of intentions. But I got nothing positive in return.
Nancy
Bashar
Bashar
You must rearrange the way you understand this. If your fear is stronger than your intention, then it is your fear that’s creating the reality. It is the strongest vibration you put out that creates the reality. No matter what your intention is, if your fear is stronger, that’s what’s creating the reality. So if you are trying really hard, then it’s because you don’t believe it’s easy. And therefore, trying really hard says it must be difficult. So give that back to me because that’s what I’m putting out. And that’s what you’re getting. That’s very positive because you are getting precisely back what you have really been putting out, which then makes it easier for you to really know what you’ve really been putting out as opposed to what you think you’re putting out.
Nancy
That’s the one that gets me.
Nancy
Bashar
Bashar

But that’s what makes it easy because when you’re honest with yourself and you realize, wait a minute, wait a minute. If I am getting what I perceive to be a difficult time, then I am putting out the belief in difficulty, not what I think I’m putting out. I’m putting out the belief in difficulty.

If you really pay attention to yourself, you will hear how very easily you are doing that. Because someone who believes they have to really try really hard to have a good life is saying they don’t believe that a good life is easy. And that’s the real belief. Therefore, that’s the reflection.

But again, at any moment, in every moment, if you change the definition of what you do get back from the negative to the positive and continue to act that way, you will get a positive effect from it.

We will give a story from an actual incident that occurred. A man had a great excitement, a great excitement to buy what you call a very expensive stereo system for his automobile. Very excited about it because this person loved music and knew that this system would give the best sound, was very excited about it but could not afford it.

So this individual, knowing the principles we were talking about about doing the best you can, picking the thing that excites you the most and acting on that to the best of your ability, chose the next most exciting thing he was capable of purchasing, the next most exciting system. Put that in his car, drove around very happy, but still knew that it was the more expensive system that was the most exciting thing, but also knew couldn’t do anything immediately about it.

Therefore, did not judge what he did to be any less. Just did it because it was the next most exciting thing he was capable of doing. A week later, stereo was stolen out of the automobile.

This person now has an opportunity. Choice number one, this is a terrible thing. I am giving this a negative meaning. Choice number two, I don’t know how this is a positive thing. But since I know I’ve only chosen to give positive meaning to the things that happen in my life, no matter what anyone else’s intentions are toward me, then I know that by giving this a positive meaning, I will only get a positive effect out of it.

Choice number two is what he took and therefore went through the process that exists on your planet of filing the claim and was given by the insurance company an amount of money equal to the old stereo system that was stolen and an amount of money equal to the estimate for the damage repair.

This individual still trusting that everything was positive went to the damage repair place and happened to pick one that took one look at the damage and said you know it may look bad but it’s really quite simple to fix. They fixed it instantly at no charge.

Now he’s standing there with enough money to buy the old system and the money he was supposed to use for the repairs, which of course collectively then was enough to buy the system he originally wanted to begin with.

That’s how you create a positive effect out of a situation that could have had a negative effect if the person had chosen to believe and react to it in a negative way instead of to believe and respond in a positive way.

Because if he had chosen the negative path, he probably would have attracted himself to someone who would have repaired the car and taken the money anyway. But because he chose the positive, his sights were open, his attractions were open to joining him up synchronistically to exactly what he needed to know that the theft actually served him.

Even if it was the other person’s intention to be negative, the theft actually served him because he only chose to know that the things that happen in his life, no matter what anyone else’s intentions are, are there for a positive reason, whether he understands it intellectually or not. That’s how life works when you let it. That’s how life works. When you assign a positive meaning to the things that occur.

Accepting What Is vs. Denying It

Man
My question is related to Nancy’s. If I live totally in the moment, or if I had a—if I didn’t fight the way my present is now that that would not be acceptable.
Man
Bashar
Bashar

There’s some confusion in the terminology. The idea of accepting what is going on in your life now doesn’t mean that you have to prefer it.

If you accept it for what it is, accepting it for what it is teaches you how to change it into what you prefer, whereas denying what is in your life does not give you the ability to change it into what you prefer.

Because you see, you can only use the energy that’s in your life to create something else. You’re 100% energy. The things that you have in life that you don’t prefer, you don’t get rid of them and replace them with something else. Literally, you have to change that thing into what you prefer.

So, if you don’t cherish and use it for what it is, you won’t find out how to use it and transform it into what you want it to be. That’s what we are saying.

Most people deny the idea that what’s going on in their life has anything to do with them. They just run from it. They don’t understand that it’s their co-creation. They don’t own it. And if you don’t own it, you can’t change it. You can’t change what you don’t own.

So the idea is not that you have to accept it in the sense of living with it. The idea is that you have to accept that it is your creation and let it reflect to you what it is you believe because you know that your beliefs create your reality.

And if you don’t prefer what you believe, then decide what belief you would rather have. And in changing that belief, you will then change that scenario into what you prefer. But what’s there shows you what you already are so that you can change it if you don’t like it.

Man

Yes. I’d like to ask you one other question relating to this though. I mean what I’m specifically—I’m dealing with like AIDS and I’m thinking that I accept the fact that it’s my creation.

But there’s also like a very strong thing that I don’t want it to be part of my creation anymore. And yet I seem to feel that I spend a great deal of energy like trying to get rid of it. Not trying to learn from it or you know but just to plain old get rid of it and that’s like the goal.

Man
Bashar
Bashar

That’s the paradox.

There is now a parallel going on in the physical reality of the channel to help in the timing of assisting you with this. And now it is understood within the consciousness of the channel why this timing has occurred in this way.

The idea of that which is artificial being extracted from the body. The idea that you are aligning with your natural self. And in the aligning of your natural self, that there will be things that have been imposed upon you that are not of you. And that these things that are not of you will make it seem while you are extracting them from yourself that everything is coming apart.

But there is a new integration taking place wherein only that which is your natural self will be left at the core. And when you arrive at that core of your natural self, all the things that you have bonded to yourself will then be seen to be extraneous.

But these things now in having formed such a shell, having become such a part of your overall personality must begin to break down. This breakdown in general is what this whole idea of AIDS in your society is representative of in that you have taken upon yourselves many negative belief systems and built them up around yourselves as a barrier similar to the idea of the barrier that is presented by your immunological system.

And as this barrier of your old negative beliefs breaks down, so too does the representative corresponding barrier of your immunological system because it has contained for many thousands of years ideas and beliefs which do not serve you. It has been used in that sense to keep things from you as a society.

This breakdown is a stripping away of all those things that are artificial to your natural self, to your natural core. If you can learn to go back to the natural core, be the natural self and be in that centered state which is only that which is truly you, you can then allow all the things which are attempting to break away from you and all the things which are breaking down in you to break down without affecting the real you, to go their way, to dissolve, to disperse, to disseminate without affecting the core of you.

And the core of you can come back and expand and grow strong. But you must arrive at that core.

This timing of the idea of allowing things to drop away that are not part of the natural you is also reflected in the timing. Now reflected to you physiologically by the channel’s body. And that you being the one that we are conversing with now will have allowed the timing to be absolutely perfect for the seeing of the breaking away of artificial things as represented now by that which is in the channel’s mouth. Do you see?

Man
Yes.
Man
Bashar
Bashar

This will be repaired. But the idea is that the timing was for a reflection of you. The timing was for a reflection of allowing you to understand that this is the time in your whole society when it is time to allow the artificial things, the artificial beliefs, the things that are really not part of your natural self to drop away.

And if you do this in joy, if you do this in trust, if you do this in faith, your core will be left and your core will expand. It is only the fear that allows this artificial barrier to eat away at the core and to allow the core to go along with it.

Oxygen is the key. Oxygen and life and breath is the key to the core of your being in physical reality. If you will learn to oxygenate your system through breath of life, through yogic practices and/or also the oxygenation of your body through systems now recognized as a substance of hydrogen peroxide in proper formulation, you will energize and oxygenate your cellular structure.

You will allow your core to derive the sustenance that it needs to allow the rest to drop away that does not need to be there. This is one thing you could do. It will be up to you and it will depend upon exactly how much you can allow yourself to align with the true core of your being.

But you must understand at the same time you are fulfilling an obligation and a purpose to your society. You are fulfilling a reflection to them to allow them to face things and issues that they have not faced within themselves. You are reflection of many of the fears that your society has about the blending of energies and polarities within themselves that they have been afraid to blend. You are reflection of many of the barriers that they have imposed upon themselves that they now no longer need. And you are performing a service in this sense.

Allow the artificiality to go. Allow the artificiality to go. You will rebuild the structure in a new way and it will be more representative of your natural self. You must trust the timing. You must trust the timing and you must be at your center.

Do not worry. You really have not bitten off more than you can chew.

Now, you will receive help with this. You’ll receive assistance but you must have faith and you must go to the center of yourself and you must go to the center of life itself which is breath. The secret is in the breath, is in oxygen itself.

Not Used to Being Where You Are

Asker
I’m feeling a little overwhelmed as I’m starting from a point probably behind many of the people that are here.
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
Oh, come come come. Everyone is exactly where they need to be in perfect timing. Do not fear. If you have come now and listen to this information now, this is exactly the perfect timing for you. You are not behind. You are not ahead. You are exactly perfectly where you need to be.
Asker
Okay. I guess possibly I’m thinking that I’m not used to being where I am at the moment. And so this is new for me.
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
Yes, that is true of many of you. You are not used to being where you are. That is what we have been discussing.
Asker
Well, living in the now. Maybe I’m here more than I need to be. Huh. We shall see. What is it you wish to discuss?
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
I think I’d like to discuss opening up of communication because I think I have a need in that respect that I’m too confining to the old rules.
Asker
And which old rules are those?
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
Not being open and honest with yourself and with others.
Asker
Both. And are there particular areas in which this takes place or in general in your life?
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
Possibly in general, but I think that there with one specific person more so.
Asker
And what is it you fear will happen if you are in fact honest?
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
I think that’s part of my problem. I don’t give it any thought at all. I seem to just go along and so I don’t work at it very well I guess.
Asker
Are you then saying that it is not so much an issue that you are delivering falsehoods or keeping information back but simply that you wish more communication in general?
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
I think I have a tendency to keep some communication back and that I would like also to have more communication in general.
Asker
What is it that you feel you must keep back? Can you give an example?
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
I guess basically just not telling everything, not being perfectly honest. In other words, that’s the only thing I can think of.
Asker
Are you afraid that you can’t figure out a way to say it that will not hurt the other person?
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
I think that has something to do with it.
Asker

Being absolutely perfectly honest does not mean that you have to say absolutely everything when you know that it might have a negative impact. That is not necessarily being dishonest.

However, your actions can balance this out by always being willing to be there for someone to help them learn what they need to learn, even if you don’t necessarily communicate everything you’re thinking about them.

Very often the things that you may be thinking about someone are just your perspective and your point of view and isn’t necessarily true for them, but may be actually truer for you.

That is why it isn’t always necessary to say what you may want to say to someone else because the message may actually be stronger for you than for them. But it is in your actions of support that you communicate. Remember this. This is very important especially in this day and age in your planetary society now.

Words—while it would be nice if they aligned with your intentions—very rarely do. Therefore, the only communication that exists in your society at this time is the actions that you do.

So if what you do is supportive, if what you do lets them know that you are a friend, if what you do lets them know that you care for them and that you desire for them to be as happy as they possibly can be in life, that is more important than what you ever might say or not say in general terms.

If you are in a specific situation where you know you are holding back communications about yourself that it would be wise to tell them so they can understand who you are, then that might involve issues of you not really being in touch with who you are or not being comfortable with who you are or not allowing yourself to really want to be fully in the relationship by not allowing them to know who you are.

There may be other issues involved in specific dialogues that are then connected to the idea of holding information back and that may be a completely different issue.

Your actions will be the true communication. It will usually let people really know who they’re dealing with because then if they wish to be in a relationship with you, they will be in a relationship with the real you.

And most of the problems in specific dialogues—speaking now—most of the problems that happen in relationships usually come from what is not said rather than from what is said.

If what is not said is not said out of fear, is not said because you do not want to reveal who you really are. If what is not said is not said because you really are afraid to go fully into the relationship, then what is not said becomes a problem.

But if it is just general ideas, general beliefs, general judgments and attitudes about other people that you don’t share with them but do in fact give them the communication of your actions and your actions say you support them, then in that sense you don’t necessarily have to say everything. It’s what you do that counts.

UFO Experiences and Losing Weight

Asker
Between the ages of 12-16, I had one actual conscious UFO sighting and the rest I used to sleep in my backyard a lot and I had a lot of dreams.
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
Oh, you made it easy for them, did you?
Asker
I guess so.
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
They appreciated it.
Asker
I was well I would wake up and think well did this happen or didn’t it happen? I didn’t know.
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
Many of these kinds of interactions are real on physical and on astral levels. Sometimes just because it happens on an etheric level doesn’t mean it’s not real. You have to redefine what you understand etheric and astral to be. They are real. And very often just because it happens on an astral level doesn’t mean it isn’t real. But it may not have always occurred on a physical level, but sometimes it happens.
Asker
So all these dreams that I used to have about flying and being in crafts…
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
Those are usually the way your mind can best remember some form of actual encounter and exchange of communication and dialogue and experience.
Asker
Do you think that there was a purpose?
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
Always. There was and still is purposes on both sides. How does it serve you? Then you can answer the purpose on your side.
Asker
Just to become a better person and to do the things that I want to do in my life.
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
It doesn’t sound like you’re saying that with much enthusiasm.
Asker
Because I’m afraid of not being able to do it.
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
If you’re not sure why you would stop yourself, then just assume you never will until you finally come to an absolute situation where it is obvious that you are stopping yourself. And if you are, ask yourself why. But until such time as you actually have a real reason for seeing in no uncertain terms that you are in fact blocking yourself, then assume that you never will. Because if you don’t have a reason to stop yourself, you won’t. Do you have a particular thing you would like to do that you are not doing?
Asker
Lose weight.
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
Say it this way: I PREFER TO LOSE WEIGHT.
Asker
I prefer to lose weight.
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
What element in the channel’s voice is missing from yours?
Asker
I prefer to lose weight and it’s taking a long time.
Asker
Bashar
Bashar
Enthusiasm and pride. Pride. Be proud of who you are, no matter who you are. Do the things you really prefer to do, to the best of your ability as you can do them now. You do not have to wait until you lose weight before you do the things you can do now. Start doing them now. And you will lose the weight.

Health Challenges and Following Excitement

I have diabetes since the early 80s. I also have retinopathy which is a breaking of the blood vessels in the back of the eyeball. I want to become an investor. But I need my eyes to see what I want to invest.

Investment requires a completely different kind of vision. So, scratch out physical vision.
Asker
What else do you need to see for? Right now I’m teaching. I certainly needed to see teaching… how to teach… I need to see in order to do my job because I am an English teacher. I need to see how to grade papers. I never thought that I could grade them without seeing them.

I am not saying that you will lose your physical sight, but this gives you an opportunity to consider how many things you can do if you did. And it is changing your perspective on things. And when you change your perspective on things, you may be able to regain your physical sight. But not until you change your perspective.

There is no accident in the symbolic uses of all these words of perspective and vision and sight. Use your imagination.

Can you now imagine grading? If grading is necessary at all.

Asker
I would like to transform it.

Then do so. Then you won’t have to worry about seeing anything. Come up with an alternate system.
Asker
I want to work on becoming financially secure. I want to work in real estate—I’m very excited about it.
Asker

Then work in real estate because you are excited about being in real estate, not because it has some particular end goal to it. If you focus on the idea that you are in real estate simply to make the money, you will probably not do very well.

If however you are in real estate because that’s what you love to do, you will probably be rich quickly because people will see that you believe in what you’re doing. The point is that you need to do what you love to do because you love to do it and that’s what brings you the abundance.

If you’re doing it because of the abundance itself, then you will not be able to do that thing very well and paradoxically you will sabotage yourself.

Do it because it’s what you love to do. Yes. Then you will be rewarded in that sense because what you put out is what you get back.

And that’s one thing you can do aside from also coming up with alternatives to the system that you say you don’t prefer.

That’s another thing you could be doing. It’s up to you to follow your excitement, but follow it in all the directions you have the capability of doing something about. And do not assume that you are in any way, shape, or form impeded. Because if at this point in your life when you have this particular condition is when you’re considering doing these things, then obviously you are capable of doing these things even with your condition and in fact it is your condition that will probably allow you to do them in the way that would actually serve you better rather than assuming that you had to do them in the old way which probably wouldn’t have worked for you at all.

On a regular regimen, three times a day, 10 minutes each time at least. In a meditative state, imagine a very strong blue white electromagnetic light penetrating every single cell of your body, especially your eyes, especially your pancreas and especially your brain.

Feel that blue white energy realigning, rebalancing, recrystallizing every component within you. Balancing, balancing, balancing, cooling, soothing, allowing you to become superconductive and drink plenty of water, purified water.

Asthma, Expansion, and Manifestation

Asker
I have a problem with asthma and I’ve been learning about what I can and its associations that it’s associated with smothering with dust and other things and I’m medicated for it. I don’t like taking medications and I’m wondering what this is really about and if I can somehow get rid of it. I want to be able to breathe. And it may have something to do with my feeling of being small, of being afraid of being small and other things.
Asker

It has to do with learning how to expand in general. Yes. Also perhaps learning a different way to breathe. Also perhaps feeling that the atmosphere in which you exist is not the natural atmosphere for you. But perhaps there is another kind of reality that is more conducive to supporting you.
Asker
What I envision myself doing is being outside a lot. Working outside. That’s where I feel really good. And that’s where my excitement takes me—is outside to an environment where I would camp and live rustically and do artwork and help people heal by helping them do artwork and be outside.
Asker

Then as you do those things, there is involved in that obviously a process of healing for you. Yes. Are you simply saying that you recognize that this is the direction of your excitement and you simply wish to accelerate this process or is there something else you feel you ought to be doing?
Asker
No, I think that’s what I need to be doing. And I had an incident happen just a couple days ago that helped me to understand my power of manifestation and that you know that’s expansion—you know that idea of expansion plays in there I think.

What images did you get in this experience?
Asker
Poverty because I envisioned myself living by water and I decided I would like to live on this particular street. I discovered a house was for sale on this street. Checked into it and found out it cost $116,000 and said, “Forget that because there’s no way I can come into that much money.”

My my—yes, you do need some expanding. You don’t always need money. Abundance is the ability to do what you need to do when you need to do it. Period. Money is one of the ways you have of representing abundance on your planet, but it isn’t the only way. And sometimes it’s not the quickest way.

You could have come up in your imagination with several possible ways of knowing that if that was really your house, then you would have acted as such and engaged those you need to engage in the kinds of dialogues that would explore the possibility of being able to acquire it in some other way. It is possible that you can do certain things to acquire a certain amount of money, but you may not need the entire amount. You may not need anything at all. Have you even discussed the idea of your interest in the house with the individuals who own it?

Asker
No, I contacted the realtor that was advertised.
Asker

Bashar
Yes.
Asker
And he’s the one who told me how much it was and I just thanked him very much and said, “Well…”

What you could possibly do is sit down and write a letter, hand it to the realtor to give to the owner expressing your desire, your strong excitement about that house. Honestly expressing that right now you do not have the financial requirements. But there is something about that house that really tugs at you.

Explore in your letter whether or not there might be ways that you could come to terms because I want you to understand something very important about deals. It isn’t the amount. It’s never the amount. It’s the terms. That’s what makes a difference. You can very often agree completely to the full amount that somebody wants, but how you pay them, that’s another story. You could work out other terms that would be acceptable to both of you.

That’s one way, one thing you could explore. Do not assume that they are as inflexible as your own beliefs. Open the dialogue. Explore. Ask them, “Are you willing to explore different terms? If I agree to your price, are you willing to explore different terms about how I can meet your price? Because I really want to. I really desire to give you what you want. Are you willing to work with me so that I can get what I want and then we can have what do you call it? A win-win situation.”

Perhaps there might even be something you can exchange, a service you can provide that will even allow them to lower the price. Perhaps you can even suggest to them to go in on a business deal with you and put the house up as their part of the deal. Be creative is the point. And do not limit yourself in all the different ways you could arrange the deal. It’s the terms of the deal, never the amount—the arrangements, the positioning, the ideas, the relationships, the interactions of the deal. That’s where your imagination comes in.

Go and play with that idea and see what you are inspired to do and see if that makes a difference and see where it leads you. And remember also very important—do not bring the baggage of expectation into the deal because very often your excitement will lure you in a certain direction not because you’re supposed to complete that particular direction but just because you’re supposed to be lured into the idea to a certain point. So do not bring the baggage of expectation that well if this doesn’t complete then the whole thing was wrong. I did something wrong. I don’t know what happened.

Go into it as far as your excitement will allow you and trust that if your excitement changes, it changes for a reason. Flow with it. But do what you can right now to exercise what does excite you and open up the way in which you could imagine being in that house.

Make a list of suggestions of all the different ways it could happen. And then when you are done, set the list aside. Take a day, take two days, take three days, go back and add more to the list until you really have come up with all the possible ways you could wind up in that house.

They might be going away on a long trip and want somebody to take care of the house. They might be able to, as we said, join with you in a business venture. They might be able to simply accept your terms for payment that are something that you can work with.

Explore all the possible ways until you really know all the different aspects that are connected to that house which has lured you into your excitement. Then you will really be dealing with the situation. Until then, you haven’t enough information to go on because you are not involved with the real possibilities of the situation. That’s dynamics. You understand?

Asker
Yes, I think I do. And you’ve helped me to understand why I said thank you very much and hung up because I think I’m exploring because there are other alternatives I have and other desires that I have and this is how it may feed into the asthma is that I’ve also learned that that has to do with a fear of growing up. Growing up for me involves responsibility. And when I thought of having the responsibility of that house, the yard, the debt, and all the rest of that, that may have kicked it away from me faster than anything else.

And it’s also an issue of believing that you always come up short.
