Shedding New Light on Negative Beliefs

Bashar Bashar
40 min read

People have stated that they feel certain energies that are blocking them from doing this or doing that.

Sometimes even talking about the idea of external forces and external energies that don’t allow them to do one thing or another, or are allowing them to feel that they are being controlled by some other kind of force or energy from somewhere.

Anything that you experience internally is your energy, no one else’s.

Everything you experience in life is made of your energy, is happening in your energy.

This doesn’t mean that there can’t be other beings that you may be interacting with or aligning with that have their own energy and maybe have their own agendas and maybe have their own intentions, whether they be beings that are human or non-human. Isn’t the point. The point is that no matter what anyone else’s agenda may be or intention toward you maybe, the only way you can experience it is by matching the vibration with your own energy and thus creating a representation of what it is they may be attempting to pass along to you. But you’re creating that experience, that internal experience of what you call their energy out of your own energy because that’s the only thing you have to work with is you in your reality.

So the idea, bringing this down to the concept of beliefs and more specifically the idea of negative beliefs… We have talked about the idea how negative beliefs, like any belief, will attempt to perpetuate themselves, doing whatever they need to do to prevent you from letting go of them. But when you feel the idea, when you express the idea that some form of energy is stopping you from doing this or that, it’s very important to remember that all you’re actually feeling is your energy. Beliefs do not have their own energy. In the context of this concept, they have to use your energy and get you to feel your energy in a certain way in order for you to have the experience that you are assigning to them as their energy. So they are borrowing your energy, siphoning off your energy, filtering your energy through the belief and reflecting it to you in a certain vibration that is representative of the belief in order to give you an experience that something else is controlling you, something else is forcing you, something else is pressing its energy upon you. But it’s all you. Every single bit of it is your energy.

So in order to make this idea a little bit clearer, we would like to use an analogy. Since we have titled this “Shedding Light,” [we use] the light bulb. On your planet, a light bulb has no power of its own. You have to plug it in or screw it in to the socket where the energy, the electricity, is then capable of reaching the light bulb and illuminating it. Beliefs are like light bulbs. You are like the electric current. When you screw in a particular belief, then that is the bulb that lights up. But it doesn’t have energy of its own. All you have to do is recognize that it is simply, shall we say, a delivery system that lets you know that energy is being run through it. It is an indicator that energy is being run through it and activating it, illuminating it, allowing you to experience that feeling, that sensation, that the energy is coming from something somewhere and “I don’t know where” and “I don’t know if I’m in control.” But again, it’s all you. All you have to do is unscrew the light bulb and it will go out. Stop feeding it the energy, it will have no way of illuminating, it will have no way of allowing you to feel anything. You will know you are not being controlled by anyone but yourselves.

But when you filter that electric current, that energy, through the light bulb belief system, you get what you are flowing the energy to. You get that particular light turning on. But you can turn it off very easily by understanding that it is something that has no energy on its own. You can imagine actually unscrewing that negative belief and being able to look at it in a neutral state for what it is. It’s just a light bulb. It’s just a device that lets you know where your energy is flowing. So if you don’t prefer the feeling, if you don’t prefer that feeling of some energy coming from somewhere or some force blocking you or preventing you from doing something, you just have to start seeing that as your energy flowing through a light bulb of a certain type. And if it’s not the type of illumination that you prefer, imagine yourself literally unscrewing that light bulb and just looking at it now that it is gone out and realizing that you can change it. You can screw in a new light bulb that is one of your liking, one of your preference.

Let’s look at it another way as well. Continuing this analogy a bit further, imagine yourself in general as absolutely transparent, so transparent that other people might think of you as invisible, and light passes right through you. All sorts of forms of concepts and energy pass right through you just like a glass window. Nothing impedes those things. The things that you experience are only when you decide that certain areas of that transparent being need to suddenly become translucent or opaque. You create that opacity that allows the light now to have a place to reside, either translucently where it lights you up in that area, or even completely opaque, which means then you start reflecting that light back to others based on whatever the opaque area is designed to reflect, be it positive or negative.

So another way to understand that this energy is always flowing through you from Source is to understand that if something is feeling a little out of alignment, out of whack as you say, off-kilter, there may be belief systems that are allowing certain areas of your being, of your existence, to become more opaque or translucent. And they can be allowed to become more transparent, allowing that energy to just flow right through you like a window so it doesn’t stop, it has nowhere to reside unless it’s something that you prefer. And then you can grab it and become opaque in that area and reflect back that light to others, knowing that it is exactly what you prefer to reflect. And you can decide in what areas you choose to be opaque and what vibration you choose to be opaque. And those things that don’t relate to you, those things that you don’t prefer, those things that have nothing to do with you being you, let them be transparent. Let the light pass through. They have nothing to do with you. That energy is for someone else to interpret in their own way, for someone else to take that light bulb and screw it in and get illuminated based on that vibration, that concept, that frequency.

So imagine yourselves now in any given situation that you have experienced, may be experiencing now, or will ever experience. Imagine that sensation that you are feeling some kind of energy, some kind of force. It may feel like a blockage, it may feel like an emotion, it may feel like fear, for example. But you have to begin to understand that you are simply feeling another state of your own energy. It cannot come from anywhere else because even if it does, as we said, you still have to create your own version of it in order to actually have an experience. You have to match that frequency to have an experience of it, and by doing that you are making that happen. You are creating that sensation out of your own energy. No one can affect you directly in that sense. You have to agree to affect yourself.

So allow yourself to start really understanding that whatever it is you experience internally in any shape or form is made out of your energy. It’s all yours. You own it and you can do whatever you prefer to with it. And start thinking in terms of beliefs being these little light bulbs that you can unscrew and screw in as you prefer to do so, choosing the illumination that you prefer. Use this analogy and it will begin to work for you. Practice with this and you will start to understand that the beliefs themselves have no power. They’re just a device to allow you to feel your power, your energy, in the way that you believe at that particular moment works for you, be it positive or negative. Because remember, you don’t experience anything that you don’t believe serves you. So even if you recognize you may be choosing things that you empirically and intellectually understand do not serve you, the only way you would be choosing them and having that experience is you have a belief system, you have a light bulb you’re passing your energy through that illuminates the situation in such a way as to make it seem to be the thing that does serve you. And then you have something to work with because you realize that the only way it would appear that way is because of the light bulb that you’ve screwed into the socket. Unscrew it and watch it go out. And take a moment to examine all the different beliefs, all the different light bulbs. Choose the one that you prefer. Choose the kind of illumination that you prefer and throw that one in. The same energy that powered the negative one will power the positive one because they don’t have power of their own. It’s you that’s powering them all, every single moment.

Questions

Negative Observations and Transparency

Nania: I was thinking that maybe I would follow up with what you were just talking about with a real-life example to see if this more light on the idea. When I go into the Redwood Forest, if I want to, I can shift into an energy state that would be akin to gamma. Yes. And from that state I can hear information from the trees and I can have all kinds of interesting insights about reality.

One of the things that I notice I’m constantly dealing with when I do that though is that I also become aware of the fact that the trees are being cut down. Yes. And that the trees on the planet are extremely under siege in a sense by so much destruction of trees and forests. Yes. So what happens is that the minute that I become aware of that negativity, it starts to counterbalance… negativity. It starts to counterbalance or it creates an opaqueness to where the information that I’m receiving from the trees is now blocked because my energy state is no longer open but it’s now fooling with this rumination about the trees and their suffering and all that stuff. So that’s kind of what you’re talking about right? Isn’t it like a negative belief is that the trees are suffering or that something bad is happening?

Bashar: Well, that can be an observation of something that someone is doing that you recognize is an act from negativity. But the idea is you don’t have to stay in the negativity. You can recognize it and switch back to the positive side so that you can come up with inspirations that might allow you to counterbalance the idea or take actions that would reverse the course of what it is you are observing. So it’s not about dwelling on the idea of what’s going on that might be a negative expression. It’s about recognizing that it is happening but switching the bulbs back to the positive side so that you can do something about it that’s more positive.

Nania: Okay. So is this though an example of what you’re talking about? You’ve lost your… transparency? The moment that you attach to a negative scenario and experience things like helplessness or hopelessness, anything that is counterbalancing the energy. And that could be any scenario that you’re talking about. Could be a relationship you have with somebody where somebody says something that you don’t like, you feel threatened, something like that. Again, it’s the same idea. You’ve now shifted out of your more authentic energized positive state and instead of recognizing negativity for what it is and not being reactive to it, you’ve incorporated and now become more opaque and you’re reactive. Is that correct?

Bashar: You mean more transparent?

Nania: Well, if you’ve attached to the negative belief, whatever has triggered you…

Bashar: Well yes, that shows you where the opacity lies so that you can work on becoming more transparent in that area. So first it’s about becoming aware of where you’ve now attached to a negative energy. Yes. How? Where you are flowing… not attached to negative energy, where you are flowing your energy through a negative bulb. And so now when you’ve… First, you identify that you’ve now screwed in a negative bulb basically. That one has been screwed in and that’s why there is the reaction. Okay.

Nania: And then the idea is to shed light on that or how do you respond to it that would allow you then to let it go?

Bashar: As we said, the first thing you do is recognize that what you are feeling in the sensation is your own energy and that the only way you could be feeling your own energy that way is that it is now been brought to your attention that it’s flowing through a negative belief, a negative light bulb. Start unscrewing that light bulb. Start finding out what that negative belief is and unscrew the light bulb. Because again, the energy is not coming from the negative belief. It’s coming from you, but it’s passing through the filter of the negative belief, through the light bulb. So the first step in this concept is to understand that the energy is not coming from the belief. The belief has no energy. It’s your energy. And then you can decide what to do with your energy by switching out the light bulb or finding out why a negative one was screwed in to begin with. That brings enlightenment.

Nania: So my initial example of the negative side of what’s happening with the trees… Yes. Okay. Now that’s my energy thinking that, right?

Bashar: Yes. And you are relating to an observation that others may be expressing negative energy in the act of cutting so many of them down. But that’s just an observation. You don’t have to necessarily identify with the feeling and dwell on it longer than using it to just recognize negative energy being expressed by others. Then it’s about saying, “All right, I have now identified with it long enough to recognize what it is, but I will now flow my energy through the positive beliefs so that I can actually take actions that will do something positive about this.”

Nania: Yes. So then reconnecting with the positive energy and then just allowing whatever information is necessary or helpful to you…

Bashar: Yes, to help you resolve any feelings you may have about the negative side of things. Well yes, but remember the feelings you will have when you screw in a positive bulb will only be positive feelings. So you’ll know you haven’t let it go if you’re still feeling upset, concerned, whatever. And this translates also to what you talk about where we’re looking at the splitting of parallel realities. So when you see things happening on Earth that are negative and perhaps upsetting, but you don’t belong in that reality, and thus by flowing your energy through a more positive bulb, you are then capable of being on a vibratory level and in a state of being where inspiration can come to you about what to do to change that. So it’s about not being defeated emotionally by the negative things that you observe, but allowing yourself to stay in a centered, neutral, positive…

Nania: I guess a neutral or positive state……to allow information to come to you that will assist in transforming the situation in whatever way is appropriate for you to be part of.

Bashar: Yes, because if you dwell in the negative state all you’re doing is adding negativity to something that already is.

Obstacles, Joy, and Transition

Asker: Two of my daughters and my granddaughter, we’re going to Japan next… I think it’s in line with what you’ve been talking about about obstacles when we’re following our joy, yes? Excitement? Yes. These synchronistically, these obstacles seem to…

Bashar: They’re not obstacles. Okay. They’re opportunities. Do you remember all the tools we mentioned exist in the kit of excitement? Obviously not so… Say no. No. Thank you. Because remember, one of the tools is the reflective mirror. The reflective mirror shows you what might be in you that is out of alignment with your true self, with your joy, with your happiness, so that you can understand what that belief is, deal with it, and let it go. Therefore, it’s not that when you’re following your joy obstacles come up. When you’re following your joy, information comes up, is being reflected to you, that you may be holding on to something in your unconscious mind or subconscious mind that doesn’t serve you. Therefore, discovering in the middle of your joy, discovering something that is not your joy, is part of your joy. You understand? It is your joy to find the things within yourself that are not your joy so you can let them go.

That’s how you have to see it. That’s how you work with it in a positive way. If you define them as obstacles, you have by that definition interrupted your flow. But by saying, “Oh, goodie, my reflective mirror is working brilliantly by showing me something I need to know that I can then let go of and add its energy to my joy,” that’s how it works. That’s one of the tools in the kit of excitement is to find out what is not your excitement. That’s part of the process of experiencing your excitement. And it doesn’t have to last that long as long as you’re willing to use it in a positive way. The only reason it might stick around is because you’re defining it in a way that makes it stick around by saying, “Well, it’s an obstacle.” And now that I’ve defined it as an obstacle, by its very definition, it’s something difficult to get rid of. It’s something that doesn’t belong. But if it happens, it must be happening for a reason. You have to stay in the positive state knowing it’s happening for a positive reason that serves you, and then you get to use it that way. It’s not about… remember, it’s not about what happens. It’s about what you do with what happens that matters.

Asker: Because I was thinking of trying to trick the obstacles, trick them into doing what… well, now I know. Just trick them into viewing them as joy and part of my ex…

Bashar: But you also have to pay attention to what the message is that they’re delivering. You can’t just ignore it and say, “Oh, it’s just a joyful obstacle, la da da, skip away.” You have to know why it’s delivering information to you because otherwise you have nothing to work with and it might crop up again and again and again until you pay attention to what the message is. You need to pay attention to. You need to transform.

Asker: I’ve had a few friends make their transition lately. Um, and I was wondering what… what exactly happens to us when we… what happens to lose life for us when you die? Yeah. Will you wake up in spirit?

Bashar: Remember, physical reality is just a dream that you’re having while you’re in spirit. You never leave Spirit. That’s your natural state. You’re just all dreaming that you’ve left. That’s what physical reality is. So basically speaking, when you die, you’re waking up from a dream and remembering more of Who You Are.

Asker: I’ve been trying to become a nicer person.

Bashar: Well, what definitions are you applying to yourself that make you seem like you’re not a nice person?

Asker: Just sometimes I get irritated with my children or say things in…

Bashar: Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? What’s the definition behind the irritation? Something isn’t going right because you have this idea of what right should be, when in fact you may not actually know what the correct path is. But by insisting that you do know, then when it doesn’t happen that way, you experience irritation. Maybe you need to relax your idea that you know what everyone should be doing. How about that? How about that as a mother?

Asker: So sometimes I think I should just be quiet.

Bashar: Sometimes that might be the wisest way to be a nice person. Just take it on a case-by-case basis. You can feel your way through it. You are a nice person. Sometimes you forget that. But you can start with the understanding that you are a nice person so that you don’t have to try to become one. You just have to remember that you are one and then behave accordingly.

Russian Community and Following Passion

Russian: I’m here to say that Russian Community want to tell how much they love you and appreciate all the messages you give to them. Do we have any channels for Russian-speaking people?

Bashar: Of course you do. there’s Channel named Nala.

Could you tell anything about it?

Bashar: No. Because it’s not my job. You will use your synchronicity to find if that is a permission slip you need, the channels that you need that can translate ideas into the language that you prefer.

Russian: Could you tell how many percentage-wise Russian people living in Russia or close by are ready to shift to the new reality?

Bashar: About 5%.

Russian: Am I in the right train by asking the question?

Bashar: No. But if you don’t need to ask the question… Yes, I really want… Do you understand what we just said to you?

Russian: I know. If you have to ask the question, then that means you’re not…

Bashar: If you’re on the right train, you don’t need to ask the question because you know you’re in alignment because you’re acting on your passion to the best you can with no assumption and no assistance on the outcome. Are you doing that every moment that you possibly can?

Russian: Yes.

Bashar: Then you’re on the right train. Thank you. So when you ask, “Am I on the right train?” that means you’re doubting that you’re following your passion. If you’re following your passion, you’re not doubting what train you’re on.

Russian: Yes. Yes. Simple, isn’t it?

Bashar: Not so much. By feelings? Remember, there is no such thing as a difficult situation. Only definitions that make them experienced as difficult. So watch your definitions. If you’re having difficulty, look to your definitions and change them, and then things will be easier. You’ll go with the flow.

Russian: Could you tell me what my uh, level of vibrations at this particular moment? Yes, please.

Bashar: You are bouncing around somewhere between 125,000 and 135,000 cycles per second overall.

Russian: Thank you. And would you tell if I have any hybrid kits?

Bashar: You do.

Russian: Would you tell how many?

Bashar: That’s an open-ended question because it determines only by the percentage of DNA that any of them might contain.

Russian: How can I connect with them?

Bashar: By following your passion and making yourself a better receiver, a better antenna to higher frequency communication. Yes. And look to your synchronicity because very often messages from other dimensional levels will, more often than not, come through the synchronicity that happens in your life that turns your attention to those things. So if you’re walking along and some synchronicity happens that suddenly, for no apparent reason, makes you think of the idea of your hybrid children, that’s usually an indication that someone is communicating with you. So pay attention to the synchronicity.

Russian: Any special way I can make it happen?

Bashar: I just told you. Just… I just told you. Okay? You’re not understanding the formula. Follow Your Passion every moment that you can to the best you can with no insistence and assumption as to what the outcome ought to be, and things will start to synchronistically flow. That’s the way it works. I’m giving you an actual description of how reality works. I’m giving you the technique. I’m giving you the instruction manual. You just need to follow the instruction. Simple as that. There are no other instructions necessary.

Bashar: Yes. Can it be that simple for you, or do you need it to be more complicated?

Russian: I doubt myself a lot.

Bashar: That means you’re trusting in something you don’t prefer. That’s what doubt is. Doubt is not a lack of trust. Doubt is a 100% trust in something you don’t prefer. So start trusting what you do prefer instead. It’s up to you. You can put your trust wherever you wish it to be. Why do you trust in things you don’t prefer? Does it serve you to do that?

Russian: I guess I am taught this way.

Bashar: All right. Well, if you know you’re taught that way, then that’s the beginning of teaching yourself another way. Because if you’re taught that way, you can teach yourself another way, can’t you?

Russian: I try.

Bashar: I beg your pardon?

Russian: I do my best.

Bashar: Do you? Yes, I do. Stop trying and then you will be doing your best. Just be who you prefer to be. You are creating definitions that are making it more difficult for you to change. The very idea that you said, “Well, I was taught that way,” there’s an implication the way you said that that makes it sound like you can’t automatically forget everything you were taught about. That you can. You can let all that teaching go in the blink of an eye if you prefer to. But you’re thinking that just because you were taught that, that somehow that makes it stick around longer than it needs to. It doesn’t. That’s just your definition of what it means to be taught something. But you’re creating yourself every moment as a new person, a new person, a new person. And you are constantly teaching yourself these things over and over and over again. So you can stop teaching yourself these things because no one else is teaching you now except you. So if you don’t prefer to keep teaching yourself those things that don’t work for you, teach yourself something different because you’re a new person. Does that make sense?

Russian: Yes. Is this helping?

Bashar: Yes. Anything else?

Russian: Yes, please. Um, last time I asked you about exploding head syndrome. You said that that is the energy pumping. Yes. Uh, it happens um very often now. It goes through some parts of my body. All right. Would you tell me…

Bashar: You’re letting more and more of your true self in. You’re letting more energy flow through you. You’re practicing getting used to more of your own energy. That’s a good sign.

Russian: Yes. It’s a little bit painful still.

Bashar: I do, because there is still resistance because you’re still holding on, as I just explained, to definitions that don’t work for you. The more you let those old definitions go, the easier it will be and the less painful it will be to flow that energy through you. But it will be painful as long as you are constricting and resisting because you’re holding on to definitions you think you need to hold on to. That’s how it works. So let go of the definitions that don’t work for you and it will be less painful.

Russian: Yes. Yes. That’s how it works. Simple. Simple. This is just physics. It’s all it is. Does that help?

Bashar: Yes. Thank you.

Russian: Can I ask one more question?

Bashar: That was a question. So now I guess you’ve used them all up. Go ahead.

Russian: Um, because I don’t have anybody else to ask. Um, is my birthday the way I know it… is it real? My birthday is your… what? The birth date? What do you think it is?

Bashar: Well, I don’t know. I don’t know anything about my real parents either. Do you gravitate to a certain season or month more than any other? Does a certain month or season seem more comfortable to you, more familiar, more like home to you?

Russian: I don’t know.

Bashar: I beg your pardon? Did you say “I don’t know”?

Russian: No, I don’t know. I like all seasons.

Bashar: You like all seasons and every month absolutely equally? Is that what you’re saying? Not one month stands out more than any other to you? Is that what you’re saying? You’re saying that I have to ask myself about that?

Bashar: Yes. I’m saying that. Okay. See what you are attracted to. If you had to choose, if you were forced to choose a month, what month comes to your mind without thinking about it?

Russian: November.

Bashar: I beg your pardon?

Russian: November.

Bashar: November. Why?

Russian: Because I like 11-11.

Bashar: Because you like 11-11? All right. Does that work for you?

Russian: To share my birthday? I would love to do that.

Bashar: Then there you go. 11-11 is your birthday.

Russian: Thank you. Yes. And one more question, if you can. Are my parents still alive?

Bashar: I am not going to answer that. Good day. Thank you. [Applause]


Conversation 4: Wave Interference and Definitions

Asker: Hello Bashar and are you good day? So um, yesterday after I bought the ticket to get here, I had this realization about positive and negativity, yes, how it really relates to wave interference. Yes. How um, what’s called constructive wave interference and destructive. Yeah. Yes. How constructive wave interference… that’s the positivity in a sense. It can be looked at that way. However, you do understand that empirically that which is reinforced can be positive or negative. So I understand that you can use it as an analogy in the way you’re using it if you wish to. That’s fine. But understand that fundamentally, basically, anything that is reinforced can be either. You can have a reinforced wave that is negative as well as positive. Uh, does that make sense to you?

Asker: Not exactly.

Bashar: All right. The idea of the waves are neutral when it comes to the idea of what is reinforced. Just because a wave is reinforced doesn’t mean it’s automatically positive. It can be negatively reinforced. Okay. Yeah. Does that make sense?

Asker: That makes sense.

Bashar: But you can use the analogy that you have brought up as a representation, symbolically, of positive and negative if that works for you as a definition, which is fine, as long as you understand that that is not an absolute. It’s just what you’re deciding works for you.

Asker: Yes. Okay. All right. And so what I thought about that is that we have our own vibration, yes, and then each person or circumstance has its other his own vibration, and then yes, we match basically and that’s our experience. Or you don’t.

Bashar: Yes. And in that context, then your analogy will work because there can be cancelling vibrations that allow you to know that you are vibrationally incompatible with something, or reinforcing vibrations that allow you to know you are compatible with something. But again, what reason are you compatible with each other for is another issue altogether. So there are many layers to this idea of destructive interference, constructive reinforcement. You can use it in a variety of ways, but there are many levels to it.

Asker: Okay. Um, another concept was I heard a physicist explain that the positive and negative poles of a magnet, they’re really just arbitrary distinctions. That if in that context… yes. But is that when you’re referring to positive and negative, how is that related? That different mechanical idea?

Bashar: Positive, in our context, is that which reinforces, which expands, which connects, which integrates. Negative is that which separates, segregates, diminishes. We’re using it as a mechanical description of what the energy does in a way similar to the analogy that you initially used.

Asker: Okay. Um, so I wanting to understand more about the concept of nothingness. Nothingness and somethingness.

Bashar: Well, even nothing is something because you can’t actually imagine non-existence. That’s not possible because non-existence doesn’t exist, so there’s nothing to imagine.

Asker: Well, I think what I imagine with nothingness is simply uh, complete stillness. And there’s no… there’s no… you don’t sense anything. You’re just completely…

Bashar: Yes. But not sensing anything is still a type of sensation. You are still having an experience. You’re just having an experience of nothing. Okay? It’s still an experience. That’s a big difference from the idea of not having any experience at all because you are cognizant. When you talk about the idea of saying, “Well, I’m experiencing stillness and emptiness or nothingness,” you’re still talking about having an experience. You’re still cognizant that you are having some kind of an experience that you can talk about. You just did it. “I’m experiencing stillness.” Okay. You’re experiencing stillness, but that’s not non-existence. It’s still something within existence because you can’t imagine non-existence because it doesn’t exist. Okay?

Asker: That… that you understand the difference. Yeah. That… that makes sense.

Bashar: All right. Um, so nothingness is simply the absolute neutral state of existence. That’s what you’re experiencing. A completely neutral state of existence. But it’s not really nothing in the sense that it’s non-existent.

Collective Mind vs. Hive Mind

Asker: All right. Also, I was wondering how you perceive the difference between um, a collective mind and a hive mind. The way that I come to understand is that a collective is realization that we have like a core template, yes, and then we all of our experiences kind of… they’re in a sense like our clothes, and that we’re expressing something outwardly. And then as a collective, we just understand that we’re all at the core of the same…

Bashar: Well, you can look at it that way. There are many analogies you can use.

Sometimes we have used the analogy on your planet of a chess game.

You can say that the collective is an agreement that you have made to abide by the rules of playing chess. That’s the game you’re playing. You agree that those are the rules, so you will play by those rules.

But how you play by those rules can be up to your individual preferences.

So you can play with different kinds of pieces made out of different kinds of things, different materials. You can have your own strategy for how to play by the rules, but it can be a very different strategy than someone else who is still playing by the rules of the collective, saying that, “Yes, we agree, we’re playing chess, but I’m playing my way with my kind of pieces and you’re playing your way with your kind of pieces.”

So it goes from the collective to the individual within that game. That’s an analogy for how you are experiencing your physical reality.

There are certain things you’ve agreed to abide by in the consensus collective reality that are the so-called conditions of the game you’re playing, and you won’t go outside of those in general. But there’s a lot of flexibility in how you play the game, what kind of pieces you use, what kind of strategy you use, and so on and so forth. That comes down to the individual choices and preferences.

Asker: With that analogy, the idea of a hive mind would be more like all the pieces, they’re all the same.

Bashar: It can be that way. Yes. In terms of what you’re calling a hive mind, it can be that way. There would be no real different strategy. There would be no real difference in the pieces.

Empathy, Vibrations, and Alien Connections

Asker: So I was wondering about feeling others’ energies or emotions.

Bashar: You’re matching a frequency so that you can create that sensation out of your own energy. You’re not really feeling them directly, but you’re identifying and empathizing in a way that you can recreate the vibration out of your own energy so that you can have some common sense of their experience.

Asker: Yeah. That’s… I’ve been feeling that sort of sensations recently. If I like meet a person, yes, or even if I see like uh, something on like a television, I can pick up like my body changes. All right. And like I feel like I’m picking up on that energy.

Bashar: Well, you may be. And then you’re also deciding to match it, which is why you can actually feel it. Otherwise, if you didn’t match it, you wouldn’t feel it.

Asker: And to go further, if I change my own feelings, yes, would like… would that person, or at least the experience I have with that person, change?

Bashar: Not necessarily. Because again, what did I just tell you? You have to agree to match the frequency to feel anything from someone else. So they would have to do the same for you. The same with you. You can put out a vibration that gives them an option, gives them a choice to match a frequency that you’re giving off, but they don’t have to match it. Do they?

Asker: Yes. Um, yes. That’s correct. Or yes, they do. Oh, yes. That’s correct. Thank you.

Bashar: Um, and would it be though that you would… if you have some other circumstance, would come to you that matches it? Like a different person may show up, uh, uh, or if you leave that environment that you don’t like… or I don’t like, but I want to change it. Yes. If I go somewhere else, I’ll find some place that does match.

Bashar: That probably… because the idea is that there are places that have certain vibrations that might be more compatible with you. You will attract yourself to them. You’ll gravitate to them.

Well, then the reason you gravitate to it is because the vibration does match, at least more closely than the vibration you were in before.

Asker: Okay. Yes. Um, my last question is I’ve had this idea throughout my life that I was an alien.

Bashar: That you’re not, but you’re connected. Connected. Yes.

Remember, everything exists all at once.

You are clearly a human born on Earth, but you are making connections to other simultaneously existing beings in Alien Civilizations for your own purposes, to download information, to download experience from them that aids and assists you in exploring this life, just as they may be doing by connecting to you to download information that may assist them in some way, shape, or form.

Everything exists all at once.

Now, from a higher level, let’s say the oversoul level, if you want to say that you are now looking from the oversoul perspective, then yes, you can say, “I, as the oversoul, have simultaneously existing incarnational extensions as a human, as this alien, as that alien, and that alien, and that alien, all at once.”

So yes, I am them, they are me.

But from this level, the individual level, you are not an alien because you were born on Earth. Okay?

But you are becoming more aware of the connections you may have to extraterrestrial sources, which may make you feel a little more alien because you’re discovering and integrating more of your being, which, for most of you, contains connections to extraterrestrial sources.

Asker: Yes. Um, that… that makes sense. I know that’s why I said it. Um, well, I had a dream, yes, where that, you know, it’s sort of like I’m our Earth as a human, but then had the realization that oh, I’m an alien. And then my whole like…

Bashar: But remember that the dream reality is a different reality. And you may actually… not you, you, but the you-you were being, may actually be an alien in that reality. And you’re just saying it’s you because that’s what you remember because it’s your dream. Okay? That’s your interpretation of being able to shift in such a way that another you is having a different experience of being someone from another planet, and you are able to identify with that or find some way to make sense out of that when you wake up as this person that you are on Earth. So you’re making an identificational vibration, an empathetic connection to that, and that’s why it feels like it happened to you.

Asker: Well, I think it feels like it happens to me because um, probably because I’m not so much identified with my personality here.

Bashar: Yes. I understand. Okay. That’s what I’m saying. It’s easy for you to identify with those other things because the personality structure here is relatively loosely connected to the physical reality of Earth, and that’s why you can expand in this way and have experiences that allow you to feel that you are those aliens more easily because you can come from a higher level where the greater you does contain those alien experiences. Okay? Yes. And you’re bringing that experience down to earth to help you.

Blind Spots and the Motivational Mechanism

Asker: my first question is about blind spots. Blind spots. Yes. Do you mean metaphorically or physiologically?

Asker: Metaphorically. Yes. I’ve… I’ve created negative experiences.

Bashar: Don’t you understand the motivational mechanism as we have described it? Would you like us to explain it again?

Asker: Please do.

Bashar: What we are describing here is a mechanism. It’s physics. This is how it works. Yes.

All right. All of you have a motivational mechanism.

It means, without fail, immediately, instantly, automatically, no exceptions, you always choose in the direction you believe serves you best. Always.

You always move away from what you believe does not serve you. Always.

That means if you can see that you’re choosing things that don’t serve you, the only reason that can happen, if you understand the motivational mechanism, is because you must have a belief attached to things that make them seem like they serve you when they don’t.

So you need to find out what definition would you have attached to your motivation to make you choose something you know doesn’t serve you?

Because the only way you would choose it is that you’ve made it seem like it does better than the alternative.

When you can discover what that belief is and identify it consciously, you will see it makes no sense.

As soon as it makes no sense, you will drop it.

Then your motivational mechanism will turn in the opposite direction and you’ll start choosing things that actually are to your benefit because you have identified why you were choosing something that wasn’t—because you were making it appear as if it was.

That’s how it works.

Asker: I think uh, I was creating the negative experiences to call my attention to that, that you just said.

Bashar: Yes. Yeah. So what did you get out of doing that?

Asker: Um, well, I a greater awareness.

Bashar: Well, then it served you in that way. Yeah. But you can also realize that you can have greater awareness by doing it in a different way too.

Asker: Yeah. That sense… The essence of my question is, is there a way, of course, and what’s that?

**Bashar:**Well, again, this is why we give you the formula. Okay?

Because the formula is all-inclusive and gives you and brings you through synchronicity as the organizing principle every single relevant experience you need in life to learn what you need to learn to be more of who you are.

It leaves nothing out. It’s a complete kit. Go to your dictionaries and look up the word “complete.” It leaves nothing relevant out.

So follow the formula. Again, we cannot say this enough.

We are not sharing these principles and these ideas with you because they are a nice philosophy, although they are, but they are not just a philosophy. That’s an actual description of how existence works.

We’re literally giving you an instruction manual, no different than if we were to hand you an instruction manual to operate a piece of machinery. If you follow the instructions, the machine will work as advertised to your advantage. If you don’t, the machine may work, but maybe to your disadvantage. You may injure yourself because you’re not following the instructions.

So the formula: Acting on your passion to the best you can with no insistence, no assumption as to the outcome, opens up the kit that contains the tools. Driving engine: synchronicity is the organizing principle. Path of least resistance. Path that connects you to all other forms and expressions of your excitement. Leaves nothing out that’s relevant for you. The reflective mirror that reveals what is out of alignment so you can bring it back into alignment. It supports you in whatever way, shape, or form you need to be supported to continue to act on your excitement. And then remaining in a positive state no matter what happens because you understand it doesn’t matter what happens. It only matters what you do with what happens.

That’s the entire instruction manual. There are no more instructions. The end. Thank you.

Now we can go on and on and on, as we have for 35 of your years, about delineating and exploring and fleshing out and getting into the details more and more deeply, more and more clearly about each of those points in the instruction manual. But there are no more instructions.

So everything we do is just a clarification of the instructions we’ve already delivered.

So if you just understand that that literally is a description of the structure of existence and it is an instruction manual for how reality works, and you use the instructions, the machine will operate as advertised to your advantage. If you don’t, then you’re swimming upstream. You’re resisting the flow. You might injure yourself. You might have negative experiences that you don’t prefer because you’re not following the instruction manual you were given.

It does.

Asker: Recently I’ve been very very afraid. Very afraid of um, afraid of what might happen in the future.

Bashar: Well, that’s the easiest question to ask to reveal what the negative beliefs are that you’re holding on to that you think benefit you somehow.

That’s exactly the perfect question to ask.

“If I did in fact allow myself to be who I prefer to be and follow my passion in the way I would prefer to, what am I most afraid might happen?”

Yeah. That will usually reveal the negative belief. And then you have something to work with.

And ask yourself, “Well, why do I believe that to be true? Why do I believe that it benefits me to hold on to that? What am I afraid of in terms of the alternative? Why do I have a definition of the alternative that’s supposed to be my excitement that I would be defining as something negative?”

Because again, that would instantly tell you that you don’t have a clear definition of excitement.

Because if you actually had a clear definition of your passion, you would understand that by definition, your passion cannot contain a negative experience.

And when you say, “Well, I’m going to act on my passion, but if I do, something negative might happen,” that’s not a definition of your passion. It’s a different definition that you’re working with. Mhm.

So you have to be very clear and precise about your definitions.

Bashar: And when you hear things come out of your mouth or thoughts go through your head that sound like facts, you have to stop yourself and catch yourself and remember they’re not facts.

They’re just opinions, perspectives, and beliefs, and they can be changed. Yes. Yes.

Because when people on your planet say, “Well, everyone knows how difficult that is,” no, they don’t.

It’s not a fact. It’s a fact that you believe it, but it’s not an empirical fact unto itself that things have to be a struggle.

That’s just an opinion, a perspective, and what you’ve been taught. It’s a belief that you’ve bought into as true, and that’s all it is.

And those things can always be changed.

The only things that can’t be changed are what we call the Five Laws. The only five facts we have ever found in existence:

You exist.

Everything is here and now.

The One is All, the All is One.

What you put out is what you get back.

And everything changes but the laws.

That’s it. Everything else is a perspective.
