The Mind Body meditation

This is based on the seven basic needs in life in physical reality

The Seven Basic Needs & Mind-Body Meditation

The seven basic needs are ordered by the amount of time it would take you to die if you didn’t have them, with the quicker ones being first.

Some of them may seem like the lack thereof would cause you to physically die; some of them don’t necessarily seem that way, but they would allow you to experience—if you didn’t express them—what you might perceive as a kind of diminishment of spirit.

This could lead to the idea of depression and could lead to the idea of death, but it takes longer for most people.

So let us begin to remind you of the seven basic needs. First of all, before we go through the description of the Mind-Body meditation:

1. Air: You need air. Without it, you will die physically relatively quickly. Now please, before we continue, understand we are talking about the average typical human. We understand that there may be beings on your planet that are Shaman or medicine people or great teachers that may, to some degree, have been able to transcend some of the things we’re about to say as basic human needs, but we’re not talking about them. We’re talking about what most of you would experience. Air: very rapidly, without it, physical death will come.
2. Water: Next will be water. You will find that without water you may last roughly about a week.
3. Sleep: Many of you might think the next would be food, but it’s not. It’s sleep. You need sleep. You need to connect to Spirit, you need to dream, you need to process in that way, you need to recharge in that way. Without it, you will find that in about, give or take, 11 days, you will start to go insane and probably start to die.
4. Food: Next is food, and you can last about 2 weeks without it, give or take.

Now after that, you find that the length of time gets a little bit longer and it becomes something a little bit different. So those are the first four.

5. Shelter (Environment): Next is what you might typically call Shelter. Now this doesn’t necessarily mean a house; it simply means whatever environment is conducive to you thriving in physical reality. If you are in a particular area on your planet that is comfortable and allows you to exist without an actual typical shelter, that’s fine. So we are really just talking about a conducive environment, be it a house or living in the jungle.
6. Connection (Relationship): Next comes the idea called Connection or Relationship. Now it doesn’t necessarily have to be a relationship with a human. It can be a relationship with an animal, it can be a relationship with a tree, with a rock, with the cosmos, with All That Is. But some form of sense of connection, of belonging, of being part of All That Is, is also necessary, or you will sort of start to feel a spiritual atrophy within you. You will feel cut off and lonely.
7. Creative Expression: Finally, you have the idea of what we might call Creative Expression. In other words, what we have talked about many times: acting on your passion, expressing yourself, the true self in life. The idea of this creative expression, if dampened down, if held back, will again cause that internal emotional and spiritual atrophy that will allow you to feel that you are not being you. Again, may allow you to feel disconnected from All That Is in a variety of ways and can lead to depression and death over long periods of time.

So these are the seven basic needs. If you allow yourself to have air, to have water, to have sleep, to have food, to have shelter, to have connection, and to have creative expression, your life will be fulfilled. Anything that you need will come to you that will fulfill you on these basic needs. There are different extrapolations of these needs, different shall we say sublevels of these needs expressed in a number of different ways, but these are the overall seven basic categories. And if you can allow yourself to let your needs be fulfilled, then you can live a life of Joy.

Now let me remind you that needs are not always the same thing as what you want. Sometimes what you want can coincide with what you need, but sometimes—and on your planet sometimes not at all, it usually doesn’t—sometimes wants can simply be something from the negative ego that it may think it needs, which may have nothing at all to do with what you actually need to be fulfilled in life. So pay attention to the fact that sometimes what you want may have nothing at all to do with what you actually need to be a fulfilled person in your reality. Just a reminder.

The Mind-Body Meditation Permission Slip So now that we have stated the idea of the seven basic needs in life that can allow you to feel fulfilled and live a life of creative Joy, being Who You Are—who you truly prefer to be—the Mind-Body meditation that is based on these seven needs will allow you to really link your mind, your body, your spirit, your higher mind, allow them to harmonize more strongly, and allow your life to accelerate, to be able to be open to letting these needs be fulfilled along the path of least resistance in your life.

So let us now describe this meditation. Do this when you wish. It is and can be a powerful permission slip to allow you to accelerate your energy and balance your energy in life.

1: Air (5 Minutes)

Each of these segments of the meditation will take five minutes—not today, not right now, but when you wish, in a comfortable place, on your own schedule.

When you decide to do this meditation, if you do, start with air. For five minutes, just allow yourself to breathe gently in, gently out, and really start to appreciate the idea of how the air comes into your lungs, how it fills you up, how it energizes you.

And then when you let it out, that feeling of release, that feeling of letting go of that which has nothing to do with who you truly are. In and out, the ebb and flow of life force and energy. Let it oxygenate you, allowing you to handle more energy, higher frequency energies.

For 5 minutes, just feel the beauty of being able to breathe, the refreshment of the air that revitalizes and refreshes you. Just allow yourself to experience that for five of your minutes.

If you need to set timers for this when you’re meditating, that’s fine. If you don’t feel like you need it, that’s fine. It doesn’t have to be precise; you can shift from one moment, one basic need, to the next when you feel that it’s correct.

Remember, like any permission slip that we may suggest, it’s up to your own imagination, your own sense of your own body consciousness, your own sense of timing to decide when to flow from one thing to another. Let your imagination and your higher mind guide you in this. It doesn’t have to be absolutely precise.

All we’re simply saying is that five minutes will suffice for each segment to give you the full effect of this particular Mind-Body meditation permission slip.

Segment 2: Water (5 Minutes)

So after you have allowed yourself to feel the beauty of the revitalization of the oxygenation of the air that you breathe, then go to water. Now, if you actually wish in the meditation to take a sip of cool refreshing water first, that’s fine too. Again, let your imagination be your guide.

But in that segment, allow yourself to feel the sensations, whether in your imagination or literally, of that cool, clear, refreshing water that you’re drinking in, filling up your cells, plumping them up, giving you the medium by which communication can happen between the cells, giving you the medium by which the electric currents in your body can travel most efficiently.

Giving you that sense of connection to the water of the world, to the water that you are mostly made of as a physical being, to the water that covers most of your planet, to the rain that rains down upon you and allows things to grow.

Feel all the aspects of the idea of that flow of water through you that again revitalizes and refreshes you and opens you up to deeper connections in the world through water.

Allow yourself to go through that sensation and appreciate and be grateful for the idea of that sensation of the cool, refreshing sensation of water in your body, the slaking of your thirst, the hydration of your form, and anything else that comes into your imagination that will allow you to more fully appreciate and be grateful for the idea of that wonderful, life-sustaining water.

Segment 3: Sleep (5 Minutes)

Then you shift to the idea of sleep. Now, if you fall asleep in the meditation, that’s fine, but allow yourself to focus more on the idea of the purpose of it.

You can begin to feel the sensation, the coziness of laying down after a wonderful day and you’re a little bit tired and you’re excited to get some sleep, and you feel yourself drifting off into that wonderful restful place, feeling your energy calming down, feeling everything smoothing out and balancing out.

That wonderful cozy sensation of the blankets over you, your head resting on the pillow, or wherever it is you like to lie down or sit up and drift off into sleep, drift off into Dreamland.

Again, whether you actually do it or not, allow yourself to appreciate that what you’re doing when you sleep is actually waking up into your true Spirit self and making that connection to more of your being which resides in spirit. Because you never really leave Spirit; you’re all there right now. You’re just dreaming that you’ve left, and that’s what physical reality is.

So when you ponder in this meditation the concept of going to sleep, it is actually waking up from the physical dream. So the idea is to wake up into more of your spirit self, make that connection, be aware of that connection.

Let that connection be like the charging of your battery, the realigning of your being, the order of your mind, the template level that determines what you experience in physical reality that you can rearrange in the direction of what you prefer to manifest in the physical world.

Allow yourself to feel that connection to more of your being, the fullness of your being, and how much bigger you are as a Consciousness. Be in that state floating. Feel the floating and the appreciation of that connection and the sensation of that beautiful floating on the currents of the ocean of creation as you drift off into Dreamland, into dream time, in the Timeless void. Allow yourself to ponder that for the 5 minutes.

Segment 4: Food (5 Minutes)

Then allow yourself to go into the idea of food. And again, if you wish to take a small bite of something that you enjoy and feel the pleasure of that sensation and the taste and the texture as it explodes in your mouth, and as you imagine or really chew and swallow, and you feel the revitalization, the energization of what it is that you are imagining or truly eating, and the gratitude and appreciation for the receiving of that sustenance and that support in life that energizes your body, that keeps it alive and thriving in your world.

Allow yourself, for that 5 minutes, all of the enjoyment and the sensations of the idea of how food sustains you in your life. And allow yourself again that deep appreciation for that gift from your world that it supplies to you, that it uses to sustain you as extensions of nature.

Because you are not in nature; you are nature. You are extensions of Gaia, of the Earth Consciousness, nature itself. And you are sustained by Nature itself and all the teachers that the Earth has to give you that are natural, that work with you to expand your Consciousness and also at the same time grant you to Earth.

Allow yourself to feel those wonderful sensations and different flavors and tastes rolling around in your mouth, on your taste buds, in your body, and the energy that comes from that as you move through life, as you see yourself gaining energy, being more active in life. Ponder that for that five minutes.

Segment 5: Shelter/Environment (5 Minutes)

Then move to the idea of shelter or environment. If you are in a place that you love, then appreciate it. Appreciate every angle of it, every corner of it, the color of it, the smell of it, the textures of it, the things it is made of.

Or imagine the idea of your ideal dwelling or your ideal environment, whether it be indoors or outdoors. Feel upon you the sensations of either being in that dwelling or outside with the sun and the moon and the wind, whatever it is that allows you to feel comforted, allows you to feel that you’re thriving in that environment, allows you to feel that you are protected in that environment—not in the fear-based sense, but just nurtured and held in the arms of that environment, supported and sustained by that which is representative of your house.

Again, be it inside or outside, but the product of all your beliefs that are in alignment and harmonious with who you truly prefer to be, that provide for you the dwelling, the environment, the world itself in all of its physicalness, in all of its tangibility, in all of its sensations that allow you to thrive and come and go and know that you will always have a place called home. And it will always welcome you. You will always belong there.

Whether you move or not, whatever you call home, you will always belong because home is within you and you take it wherever you go. As long as you are following the path of least resistance that is representative of the path of your passion, wherever you wind up through synchronicity will always feel correct, will always feel supportive, will always feel nurturing, and will always feel like home.

Because you will be that home and it will be reflected to you in the reflective mirror reality around you that you call the physical world. And allow yourself deep appreciation of that environment, whatever it may be.

Segment 6: Connection/Relationship (5 Minutes)

Then you move on to the idea of connection and relationship. Be it the people in your life—friends, family, lovers—matters not. Be it again an animal, a tree, a rock, the ocean, the stars, the cosmos, All That Is. It doesn’t matter.

It only matters that you know you are connected and that you allow yourself to feel that sensation of belonging, of being, and knowing that you are worthy—or you would not exist, because Creation doesn’t make mistakes. So if you exist, then you are needed.

There is connection. There never is not connection. Sometimes we know you can feel disconnected, but just remind yourself, as we discussed in the transmission called The Power of Paradox, that you cannot have a feeling or an experience of disconnection unless you’re connected. Because you are drawing from All That Is as an aspect, as a reflection, as a facet of the multi-dimensional Christ of Creation, of All That Is.

You are drawing upon that connection to create whatever sensation—even sensations that make you feel like you are disconnected, that you have no relationship, that you are alone, cut off. You’re still creating that with your connection.

So that sensation of being connected, being a part of something, community, or even a blade of grass, will allow you to know that you are indestructible at your core, that you cannot cease to exist because you belong to All That Is, and that you are worthy and deserving of being your true self.

And that you can appreciate the reflections that you get from all the relationships that you may attract in your life. Again, be it people or otherwise, everything is a mirror in some way, shape, or form. It may not always show you a one-to-one reflection, but it is there for a reason.

And the fundamental purpose of relationship is for everyone and everything in that relationship to reflect to everything else in the relationship what you need to know to become more of who you truly are.

So that you can see yourself in those relationships, see something you need to know about yourself in those relationships, even as you are willing to support the others in those relationships to know what they need to know about themselves to become more of who they truly are.

So have deep gratitude and deep appreciation for the relationships of all kinds in your life, no matter what they may be, no matter how they may come into your reality. Appreciate them and see deeply into them the reflections they are there to show you so that you may learn and you may grow and remember who you truly are.

Segment 7: Creative Expression (5 Minutes)

Then allow yourself to shift into creative expression. And it is this, the seventh segment, the seventh need of truly expressing your passion, that is the trigger for the formula that we have given all of you: acting on your passion to the best you can with no insistence or assumption on the outcome, and remaining in a positive state no matter what happens. Because even if something happens you don’t prefer, you have to know it’s there for a reason, and if you stay in a positive state, you will get the benefit of why it’s there.

So the idea is that the seventh segment of creative expression, allowing yourself to actually take the actions that you prefer to take on your passion, will actually bring you all the other six basic needs through synchronicity, through the tools in the kit of passion. So don’t hold back. Appreciate yourself, appreciate your gifts, give what you have to give.

And remember, you can’t just think about it, you can’t just meditate on it, you can’t just imagine the idea of creative expression. Physical action is the language of physical reality. If you don’t actually take action on it, you’re not grounding it in the reality, you’re not speaking the language, and it’s not reflected in your world.

But remember, if you do have a gift to give, that is your first clue that there must be someone in your world waiting to receive it, or you would not be excited about giving it. Because there would be no purpose and no point to it. If you have something to give, there is always someone waiting to receive it. Don’t hold back from them. Don’t deprive them of what you have to give. That is a true reflection of your passion. Appreciate yourself enough to be yourself instead of attempting to be someone you’re not.

So spend that last five minutes, or whatever timing feels correct to you, to have true, deep appreciation for your ability to act on your passion, to be passionate about life, to be passionate about being passionate, to let that energy flow through you, to let yourself channel it and be that conduit, that valve through which beauty comes, through which grace comes, and be a living example of living your dreams.

Because you never know who might see you and who might feel that you are in that state of beauty and grace, and you may never know that they saw you, but you may light up their life and change their life just by being a living example of being yourself as fully as you can. You never know.

And remember, it’s not about creating more impact, because just by being who you are and just by being where you are, you already have all the impact you will ever have. The idea of creating impact in the world is not creating more impact than you have; it’s revealing the impact you already have just by being yourself.

So allow yourself to bloom, to blossom, to flower, and allow yourself to become one of the many blossoms in the beautiful garden that exists and can exist on the version of Earth you prefer to live upon. That will make all the difference in the world.

Does that make sense? All right. Again, permission slips like this and any other are simply techniques and tools that allow you, if they align with your belief system, to give yourself permission to be more of who you are. That’s why they’re called permission slips.

But the idea is that if your imagination decides in some way, shape, or form to add a little of this and add a little of that, change a little of this and change a little of that, whatever feels correct to you is correct. So let your imagination be your guide. You can start this meditation in exactly the way we described it, but over time realize it may shift, it may change, and ultimately the whole point, as we have said, of any permission slip is to realize that you are the primary permission slip in your life. Because you’re the one making the changes anyway. The permission slip isn’t doing it for you; it’s simply aligning with your belief system in a manner that allows you to circumvent your belief system in the way that you prefer to, because you say the tool makes it easier. But that’s just a decision and a choice that you’ve made.

Ultimately, you will realize you can just make that choice anytime you wish. And therefore, the idea of the Mind-Body meditation based on the seven basic needs will become automatic, entrained within you. You will just know it as first nature, and you will shift as you prefer to, and you will know who you are.

Extraterrestrial Contact & Hybrid Children

Questioner: Okay. So a couple weeks ago I had a dream where I looked up and saw a bunch of spaceships. Yes. And one… I sometimes have that without being asleep because I don’t sleep anymore.

Questioner: So one came down to me and the being that came out, I ran up and gave him a big hug and I was crying and sobbing and it felt like I really had missed him.

Bashar: Yes.

Questioner: And I’m wondering… so I’ve connected with him through meditation yes, um, since. And I’m wondering if you can tell me what race he is.

Bashar: You’re dealing with another hybrid race, primarily what we would label the Illoii. Okay. In any such encounters that are going on between you and extraterrestrial beings, you will usually find that you will have at least one counterpart in that society that will be involved in the encounter, so that they feel familiar and are a reflection of more of you. So in a sense, it’s like meeting another version of yourself.

Questioner: Okay, so he is my counterpart?

Bashar: Yes.

Questioner: Awesome. Um, so in the dream I got on a ship and went out to space and saw the Earth get really small. So was that physical or was it…? Bashar: Well, yes and no. You have to understand that many of these encounters actually happen in a slightly shifted version of physical reality that allows [you] to experience more than you otherwise might in your typical physical reality. So yes, it was physically real, but not in your physical dimension.

Questioner: Exactly. Okay. Uh, do I have hybrid children?

Bashar: Yes.

Questioner: How many have a significant amount of my DNA?

Bashar: Again, the average is usually about 15 to 17 percent.

Questioner: Okay. So you’ve mentioned the possibility of hybrid children living on Earth as soon as 2022. Is that still…?

Bashar: No, no, no. Okay. I said the window of open contact is between 2025–2033, maybe 2040. I did not say the hybrid children will be landing at the beginning. Somewhere in there, things will be set up so that they can begin to stay longer and longer and longer on your planet in certain areas that are sequestered and safe for them to acclimate and adapt to your society, as your society acclimates to them. But the idea is that some of them have been on your planet and do come to your world from time to time in secret places that are set aside for them so they can practice what it’s like being on Earth. Because many things that you take for granted are very alien to them. So they have to learn the idea of how to fit into your society to some degree, although they won’t go all the way with it because human society must also adapt to them to some degree as well. But they’re willing to learn and they’re quite fascinated by some things that you don’t even really think about, like eating food off a plate with a fork. Why not just take the food and put it in your mouth with your hand? So they have a lot of things to sort of learn to fit in a little bit. But they do that on your planet from time to time in houses and apartments that you don’t necessarily even know that they happen to be in. It might even be right next door.

Questioner: Wow. Okay. I wanted to talk about being a bridge to the higher dimensions. Um, so when I’m meditating and I can converse and see in my mind my hybrid children… uh, what reality is that and what does that look like on their end?

Bashar: Well, again, you’re communicating through that slightly altered reality that we just mentioned, and therefore they’re receiving it, in a sense, sort of telepathically from you.

Questioner: Okay. Um, so is it helpful or important to be making these emotional and, like, relationship connections with them? Is it helpful and important to you?

Bashar: Yes. Well then, the answer is yes. Because they will feel the importance to you, and that will allow them to begin to identify and empathize with those feelings and understand them more clearly.

Questioner: Okay. Um, so earlier this week I had a really powerful meditation where I felt like I was speaking with you. Was that really you or…? Bashar: You’re just tapping into the vibration that you recognize as our Collective Consciousness through your own higher mind. So what you were doing—which is what you’re doing right now—was speaking a little bit more clearly to your own higher mind, using us as a filter or a mask to do so.

Questioner: Okay. And what is my vibration? Bashar: Are you sure you want to know? Because remember, as soon as you ask, it goes down.

Questioner: Um, well, mostly my question was: I’ve really been meditating a lot and it’s felt really good. It’s been all right. Bashar: That’s fine. Passion. But are you taking actions as well?

Questioner: Yes.

Bashar: All right. Because remember, that’s the language of physical reality. Okay? Not just meditating. You have to act to be in the world. So, do your meditations help you take more actions in the direction of your passion?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: All right. Are you sure? Didn’t sound very convincing.

Questioner: I’ve… I’ve been taking a lot of action the last year and it’s felt like I’ve been really just outside and not really going inside. And so I’ve been feeling really… Bashar: You can balance it out. That’s fine.

Parenting, Negative Thoughts, and Time Travel

Questioner: Speak up please so all may hear you. Okay. Um, I’ve been listening to you, um, many years ago and I’m very grateful to be here. I’ve been doing a lot of work inwardly for self to grow and, um, you know, to become more of who I am.

Bashar: Yes.

Questioner: And I’m creating a secret of meditation in my house with people that coming over, all right. And I do believe with water and air and uh, all the having things that you’ve been providing tonight. Uh, the thing is that I’ve been asking is about my son. That he… he’s back in my house and he doesn’t… he stays all night with the heater and he doesn’t really drink enough water. And um, if you have a way for me to… um, what are you asking? Should you tie him down and force feed him? Bashar: No.

Questioner: Well, uh, just that… um, have you had conversations about why and does he actually feel like he’s not getting enough? He would listen to others but not to his parents, I guess. Bashar: Have you had a conversation about why he doesn’t listen to your advice? Usually kids don’t listen to their parents. That’s not the case on my planet. I know, but here it’s a little bit different. Well, I understand that, but do you also understand he may have his own path in life?

Questioner: I totally agree with you. Bashar: All right. The thing is that, um, like you said… um, I have a suggestion for you. Okay?

Questioner: Thank you. Bashar: Let’s call it the Santa Claus Effect. Yes. Leave a picture of water and a glass out for him when you go to bed. Maybe in the night he will sneak over and have some water without you necessarily knowing about it. Okay?

Questioner: Thank you. Yes, just give him the option. Don’t tell him what to do. No, I… I and you absolutely right. I do that. I just put… but do you leave water out? Bashar: Yes, I do put water when you’re not around.

Questioner: When I’m not around. Yes. When you go to bed? Bashar: Yeah. Leave water out. Okay. So that you’re not around, so that he can have it when you’re not around. Okay? You understand?

Questioner: Yes. All right. Yes. And for the… for the heater that is on whole night long and there’s no air in this room. No windows open, nothing. Bashar: Is he cold?

Questioner: He always said that he’s cold. Bashar: All right. But then there’s no air at all for all night? There must be some, or he would suffocate. Remember, that’s the first basic need and without air you’ll probably be dead in about 2 minutes.

Questioner: Yeah, but I can see that he has like the eyes swollen. I can see he’s very fatigued and all. Bashar: All right. Well, have you had a conversation about the fact as to whether or not he enjoys that feeling?

Questioner: I do… but as I said that he doesn’t listen to… Bashar: I didn’t say that you had to say something he had to listen to. I said, have you had a conversation about whether or not he enjoys that effect? If he’s enjoying that… um, yes. Ask him. Look, your eyes are kind of puffy and swollen and so on and so forth, and you seem very tired. Do you enjoy that feeling? I’m just curious. Okay?

Questioner: I will ask him that for sure. Bashar: See? Then it’s not about him listening to you. It’s about you paying attention and giving him options to respond in the way that he prefers to respond. Okay?

Questioner: Yes, yes. All right. Bashar: And again, he doesn’t have to answer. Just pose the question. He’ll go through it in his mind and maybe he’ll decide that he needs to make different choices to have different consequences. But you’re being the one that’s imaginative enough to simply get the ball rolling in his own mind without making him think he has to listen to you. Mhm. Do you understand?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: All right. You need to be a little bit more imaginative—and we don’t mean this in a negative way—a little bit more sneaky, oh, so that you can inspire him to think about things without him feeling that he is being told what to do. Okay? Do you understand?

Questioner: Thank you. Bashar: You just have to exercise your curiosity. Because again, if that really is his path, if that’s something he believes he needs to do, then the only thing coming from you in your unconditional love and support is: “Well, I’m curious. Do you find that sensation interesting or enjoyable? Or let me know, I’m kind of curious.” And then walk away. You don’t even have to finish the conversation.

Questioner: Thank you very, very much, Bashar. Bashar: You’re very, very welcome. Is there anything else that… do you see from what I… I do for self, doing work… and are you… you acting on your passion to the best you can with no insistence or assumption on the outcome and remaining in a positive state no matter what manifests?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: Don’t lie. I didn’t hear the whole question but I understand. All right. Then that’s just my curious question. So you can go think about it.

Questioner: And I have a lot of love for this city. Yes. I see a lot of beautiful interactions between people of all walks of life. Yes. Um, I also see some very negative behavior, of course. Very negative interactions, of course.

Bashar: Because you have overlapping realities. You’re going to see realities that you don’t prefer. You’re going to see realities that you do prefer. You are a world that is a melting pot and overlapping of many different kinds of choices. That’s what Earth is all about.

Questioner: I was hoping you could provide me with some more tools, tricks, permission slips. I find myself, um, running through some like negative thoughts in my head as I just perceive some negative behavior. Bashar: Oh, all right. Then do you understand that you’re adding to that negativity? Is that what you prefer to do?

Questioner: It is not. Bashar: Well then, why do you add to it?

Questioner: That is what I would like some help in, in that regard. Bashar: All right. Well, do you understand that that is not necessarily your reality, just because you can see it?

Questioner: Yes. Are you sure? Bashar: Um, not 100%.

Questioner: No. Thank you for being honest. I… I’m under the impression that if… uh, yes. And I know you shared this yesterday, which actually shed some more light on it, and I haven’t had the time to really process it. But as we grow further into the light, we see more of the darkness. Bashar: Of course. As you expand your consciousness, you’re going to be more aware of darkness and light. It doesn’t mean it has to affect you or you have to choose it. You just become more aware that it’s there as a choice, because you become more aware of everything within All That Is, which has a trinity in it: light, dark, and the balance point in the center. Therefore, becoming more aware of it doesn’t mean you have to react to it. It’s just an observation. And if you really want to help, being in a positive state is what gives someone behaving negatively at least an opportunity or an option to change their energy. But if you’re also reacting negatively to it, you’re only reinforcing something they’re already doing. Why would you prefer to do that?

Questioner: I do not prefer to do that. Bashar: Then do you also remember what we said about the idea that you can give someone an option? You can share an idea that you believe might give them an opportunity to change into something more positive. But do you also remember that we said that whatever it is they do with what you share with them is none of your business?

Questioner: I do recall. Bashar: All right. So then why are you making it your business? Why are you choosing something you say you don’t prefer to do as an energy state? There must be a reason. You never do anything, you never choose anything that you don’t believe serves you in some way. So you have to find out what that belief is that says that doing what you don’t prefer to do is actually what you prefer to do. You have to find out why it would seem to make sense to do that, because that’s the only reason you would choose to match a negative vibration when you experience a negative vibration or observe one. It must make sense. It must seem to make sense for you to choose to do that. You have to find the belief that makes that seem to make sense, because you know that if you really understood what that belief was saying, it wouldn’t make sense at all. But you have to bring that belief into the light of your consciousness to know what it’s saying so you can see that it makes no sense. And once you see that it makes no sense, it’s gone. But as long as you keep choosing to do that, you have a belief that is making it make sense to do something you don’t prefer. Because more often than not, that belief is saying: “If you stop doing this, if you let me go as a negative belief, something worse will happen.” So it’s trying to scare you into not letting the negative belief go, letting you think and believe that it’s safer to hold on to the negative belief you have rather than experiencing something even worse if you were to change. You have to see through these things as simply the way that negative beliefs choose to reinforce themselves. They don’t have a choice about it in that sense. It’s just the way they’re designed. They have to perpetuate themselves somehow by making you believe that those choices are real, are factual, instead of just nothing more than a perspective, which is all they really are. Is any of this helping?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: Are you sure?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: So if you were to investigate yourself and see that there is a belief within you that is saying that when you observe something you don’t prefer—when you observe somebody doing something negative—that you must also go into a negative state… how does that make sense to you? What belief would you have to have for that to make sense for you to think you’re getting a benefit by doing that when you know you’re not? What would the belief have to be? Let’s use your imagination.

Questioner: That I am somehow responsible for that negative behavior. Or how could that be? Or it’s a reflection of my negative behavior. Bashar: All right. You can always look at anything and you can always take a moment to say: “All right, is this reflecting something to me that I need to understand? Something that I need to balance in my life?” But you also get to decide, if you’re honest with yourself, that it may not. Remember, just because things are reflections doesn’t mean they’re always a one-to-one reflection. It doesn’t mean that what you’re seeing someone else do is what you’re doing. The reflection may simply be that you observe it so you can help them. That can be a reflection that you’re in their life to be of service, to help them maybe make a different choice. That’s still a reflection. Don’t take it absolutely literally in that “oh, what they’re doing is what I am doing.” No, that’s not necessarily the case. Although you can take a moment to decide if it is. But if you realize it’s not, then you have to know that it’s happening for a different reason, and it may be more their issue than yours. But you’re still in their life and they’re still being observed by you for some reason. But you need to figure out what that is to your benefit.

Questioner: Yes. That makes a lot of sense. Bashar: Does that help you?

Questioner: It does. Will that do? Bashar: That will do. Thank you very much. You’re very welcome.

(Applause)

Questioner: Good to see you again, Bashar. Bashar: And you as well. Good day.

Questioner: Good day. Um, it’s not a criticism, but there may be an eighth need that you may have overlooked. Bashar: Oh, all right. Do tell.

Questioner: I don’t know, I’m just asking really. Is there an electromagnetic field that feeds us all the time that if we didn’t have that we wouldn’t even last a moment? Bashar: Well, in a sense, yes. But that’s just a description of the reality that you’ve created as a support system in total. Everything we’ve mentioned makes use of that electromagnetic field. So you’re talking about something that’s on a different level. We’re talking about the seven basic needs of physical reality. You’re talking about things on a higher level that generate the entire physical reality. But we’re talking about the translations of that energy in physical reality.

Questioner: All right. I get that. Now, the paradox of those physical needs would be possibly a deprivation—temporarily—of one of those needs could increase an expansion of consciousness. It can. Depends again on how anything is used. Anything can be used positively or negatively, right? But if we take those needs and somehow, you know, we fast a little bit, then there’s a cleansing that allows that need to be appreciated again. Bashar: It depends on how you use it, of course. Do you suggest any ways of using?

Questioner: I do not. Bashar: Okay. It’s up to your imagination. It’s up to what works for you. As I said, you can take any permission slip and alter it in a way that works for you. But the needs are not permission slips; they are essential aspects for physical reality. But the idea is, what you’re doing is a permission slip when you suggest, “Well, what if I fast for a little while?” I see what I’m saying? You’re turning the need into a permission slip.

Questioner: I get. Okay. Now a question. I waited a year to ask you because one whole orbit… one year. Yes. Because it’s a question about time travel. Bashar: Oh, yes.

Questioner: And I asked you a question last year about time travel and you said, and there really is no such thing as time travel in the science fiction sense. Correct? But it’s a matter of matching vibrations. Yes. Of, let’s say, this moment to last year’s moment would be a sort of time travel. Bashar: Well, again, it’s not exactly last year’s moment as you understand last year’s moment. It’s a moment that may be similar in a parallel reality. It may look almost identical. You may not be able to tell the difference. But you’re not actually in your own past. You’re in a parallel reality that looks like what you experienced as the past, but it’s not yours in that sense.

Questioner: So the essential thing that I came away with and thought about for a year is that there really is no duplication of this moment ever, because this moment is only this moment and you can’t duplicate it. Correct? So there is no time travel back to this moment. Bashar: No. Because we’re live. Yes. And even a recording is not the moment.

Questioner: No. So okay. As the Zen monks on your planet say, you can’t step into the same river twice. Bashar: Exactly. I think it was Heraclitus that said that, but yes, exactly.

Questioner: Um, so you’re in the future, but what future are you in? That’s a good question. That’s why I asked it. Because you see, the idea again is that we exist in a manner you perceive as the future. Of course, we exist at the same time you do in a parallel reality that to you feels like the future because of its vibration, because it expresses itself in the way that you relate to as the future. Of course, if we weren’t actually simultaneously coexistent, we couldn’t be talking to you right now. So the idea is, we are representative of a probable future that contains and expresses certain frequencies and certain vibrations that are representative of a harmonious Earth interacting with different extraterrestrial beings. And it’s your choice to decide to guide yourself and shift yourself to that version of Earth, or that timeline, so to speak, by being more of yourself. That’s why we feed you the information. Is because the formula itself, the instruction manual itself, allows you to change and shift your frequency, and that navigates you through the different frames of parallel realities, creating a so-called continuous timeline that you experience in physical reality, that navigates you to the version of Earth that already exists that’s more representative of the changes you made within yourself that you say you prefer. And we represent, to some degree, that particular future reality that you say you prefer. So your presence here is sort of pulling us, in a sense, through time-space towards that probable future. And the more we embrace such an exchange, the more probable, perhaps, that future becomes.

Questioner: Exactly. So thank you for your presence and your willingness to participate. But what do you get out of it? A bigger family? Bashar: Okay. But do you not think that you have value to us?

Questioner: No, I get that. But it already happens in your… in your present, which is our future. It’s already there, right? Bashar: It’s not exactly the way you think of it, though.

Questioner: Okay. How should we think of it? Bashar: It’s not about “should.” Okay. The idea is that we understand your potential. We see what you really are, but we also see what you prevent yourself from knowing that you are. And therefore, we give you information that allows you to strip away the things that are not you so that you can become more fully apparent to us in our reality as the beings you actually are. In your core, just like you’re apparent to us. Yes. Apparent. We are seeing you forming, in a sense, in the same way that open contact would be an idea where you see us forming in your so-called reality. We are blending and overlapping the realities to create a third probability in which we can both interact. And so we’re experiencing the formation of that reality even as you are.

Questioner: So in the 33 years, or 35 years, 37 years you’ve been visiting us, have you seen the unfolding of a closer probable reality to what your intention is? Bashar: Yes. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be doing this.

Questioner: All right. That means so we’re evolving. Yes. And we’re… okay, I’m just checking in. And so we’re… and we’re at a crossroads, it seems like. Bashar: Yes. You’re at a pivot point right now in your year of 2020. Yeah, right.

Questioner: So is there anything we should do to make it more probable that…? Bashar: I’ve already told you. The formula is everything. Okay. It answers everything. The formula being: You act on your highest passion to the best you can, no insistence or assumption on the outcome, remain in a positive state no matter what manifests. Because it’s not about what happens; it’s about what you do with what happens that makes the difference. This unlocks the tools of the driving engine: the organizing principle of synchronicity, the path of least resistance, the path of connection to all expression of excitement in your life, the path of relevance leaving nothing out, the idea of support in whatever form it needs to be there to allow you to continue to act on your excitement, the reflective mirror that reveals to you anything in your belief system that’s out of alignment with your preferred reality so you can examine it and let it go. And that’s the entire formula. That’s the entire instruction manual. We can and have spent many hours continually refining your understanding in more precise ways of those particular tools and instructions, but there are no more instructions. We’ve distilled this down from our observation of how your physical reality works to give you literally an instruction manual that’s no different from any instruction manual you would read to operate a piece of machinery. If you read the instructions and follow the instructions precisely, the machine will operate to your advantage as advertised. If you do not follow the instructions precisely, the machine may operate, but it may not operate to your advantage and you may injure yourself. Oh. So we have distilled this down into an instruction manual that’s very simple and is an actual description of the structure and nature of existence. So just follow the instructions. That’s all you need to do. Every single appointment and every single agreement that you’ve made will unfold in perfect timing if you do that and follow the instructions. And the only way you can miss any appointment you’ve made or any agreement you’ve made is to spend your time and energy worrying that you will miss the appointment or the agreement. Right? Right? Right? Right. It’s that simple. It is self-contained. It is self-perpetuating. It is self-guiding. It leaves nothing relevant out. Nothing. It’s a complete holistic kit. Just go with the flow. That’s all you have to do. Just follow the instructions as precisely as you can. Everything is fine.

Questioner: Great. So also want to say, if we want to vibrate towards the future potential self, because that’s a time that we exist… I… I did. I upset you? Bashar: No. What we’re actually laughing. We are. That’s how you laugh on your planet. It’s just that you’re not hearing it.

Questioner: I thought I did. Okay. We’ll follow the instructions. You’re not asking a separate question, right? Bashar: I got you. When you act on your passion, what happens? Your frequency goes up. Yes. When your frequency goes up, what happens? You become a better receiver of higher frequency information and energy. It’s self-contained. It leaves nothing relevant out.

Questioner: I’m going to look at those instructions again. All right. How are my hybrid children doing?

Prosperity, Light Technology, and Listening to Higher Mind

Questioner: Hi, Bashar. And you, good day. Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for all of us. Bashar: It is our passion and our pleasure.

Questioner: Amazing. I have two questions. Yes. You’ve given us lots of permission slips. Besides the formula, do you have a new permission slip for us to raise our vibration around prosperity and financial prosperity specifically? Other than… I know what you’re going to say. Other than the formula of… Bashar: [Music] Of course. But that’s the answer to everything, though. So I suppose there is a mistranslation when we say it leaves nothing relevant out. However, we will once again add this: Don’t focus on only one form of abundance. We understand that money on your planet is one symbol of support, one symbol of abundance, but it’s not the only one. And if you’re focused only on one symbol of abundance, you’re closing the doors through which other forms could come because you won’t recognize them for the support that they are. Because you’re insisting, “Well, if it doesn’t come in this form, it’s not coming at all.” Being given a gift is a form of abundance. Yes. Synchronicity is a form of abundance. Yes. Trading for something is a form of abundance. Yes. Imagination is a form of abundance because it gives you ideas to try new paths where you may not even need what you thought you needed. Okay. So when you allow those forms and other forms to be equally valid, then you allow them to come to you in whatever form and whatever amount they need to come. Because more often than not, different forms of abundance may have to come in to support one another. A little bit of this and a little bit of that and a little bit of that to form the 100% of abundance that you need. Remember, our definition of abundance is simply the ability to do what you need to do when you need to do it. Period. That’s it. The ability to do what you need to do when you need to do it. That’s it. So if it comes in a little bit of money and a little bit of a gift and a little bit of synchronicity and it forms the 100% you need at that moment for the situation you’re in, why close the doors on everything but money? Beautiful. Because if it only takes a little bit, why insist on more? Because then you’re defeating the purpose. You’re not using the mechanism in the way it is representative of the path of least resistance. Remember this formula: Insistence is resistance. Yes. So don’t insist. Don’t rigidize the other things out by only seeing one thing as valuable, as valid. Let it all flow to you.

Questioner: Yes. Yes. Is this helping? Bashar: Very much.

Questioner: All right. And another question. So I’m working on a… it’s not really as new anymore, but it’s relatively new technology that converts your body heat into specific frequencies of light. All right. And it sends it into specific points in your body with lots of benefits. Since you are technologically light years ahead of us… Bashar: Well, that’s a misnomer, but we understand what you mean. Metaphorically, yeah. Thousand years? Is it ahead of us? 3,000 years ahead of you.

Questioner: Um, is there anything you’d like to share that would, besides the formula, that would guide us in the right direction with this technology specifically? Bashar: Do you understand that your body is made of light?

Questioner: I will take your silence as no. Not exactly. Bashar: Yes. No. Um, 50%? Oh, all right. There is another way to understand the idea on your planet that you call the chakra system. You have associated different frequencies of light with the different chakra points on your body. Yes. Yes. So understanding those frequencies as purely as you can will give you a big clue how to use light that is representative of those frequencies in different ways for balancing the idea of the body.

Questioner: Got it. Does that help? Bashar: Yes. All right. Thank you. You’re welcome.

(Applause)

Questioner: Hello, Bashar. And are you good day? Bashar: Hello, Bashar. And are you good day? I have a few questions. Um, I have these dreams where I feel shapes in my body.

Bashar: You feel shapes in your body?

Questioner: Yes. Different energy patterns are pressing on my body. And I’d like to know if every time I have these dreams, I connect with the Grays? Bashar: Well, you connect with different things depending on the pattern.

Questioner: The most recent one I had was round shapes. And other times I’ve had square shapes. Bashar: The round shapes may be more representative of either the hybrids or even your spirit guides. Square shapes can be representative, to some degree, of the Grays and a few other things. It just depends on the patterns you’re translating the energy connection into these ideas of shapes. That’s a very interesting way to interpret them.

Questioner: Was my family chosen as a whole? You mean, did you choose yourselves to connect? Bashar: Do you mean did you choose yourselves?

Questioner: Yes. A young lady mentioned earlier if she was talking to you… is your response applicable to everyone in general?

Bashar: Yes. There may be some exceptions, but they’re very rare. Because it’s not that anyone needs to talk to us unless we have these particular kinds of encounters. The idea is that it’s training you to learn to talk to your own higher mind. You may be using our vibration to make it easier for you to do so because you’re familiar with our vibration in these encounters. So we give that vibration for you to use so that it puts you more strongly in touch with your own higher minds, which is the point. Now, sometimes, yes, maybe you connect to other members of our society or the general collective consciousness pattern of our particular reality to aid and assist you. If you wish to do that, that’s fine. But the basic point of these conversations and getting you used to our frequency is to help you make stronger connections to your own higher mind. Correct?

Questioner: Correct. And I’ve been having a little trouble with listening to my higher mind. Bashar: You mean you’re having a challenge?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: All right. But are you acting on your passion as best as you can? Hesitation usually means no. All right. Now pay attention. It’s not difficult at all to listen to your higher mind. Let me again explain it this way. The higher mind communicates with you in terms of energy. Do you understand?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: Your body interprets that energy as the sensation called passion, excitement, curiosity, attraction. That’s actually the way your body interprets the messages from your higher mind. Because your higher mind is basically saying: “Do this now. Act on this now. This is your path. This is who you are.” It comes in energy, but your body interprets it as the sensation called passion and excitement. So when you act on it, you’re responding to the higher mind saying, “I heard you.” But that’s why you have to speak in the language of physical reality, which is action. Otherwise, you’re not responding to it. You’re saying, “I didn’t hear you.” If you’re not taking action on it, and therefore, if the higher mind has given you an opportunity to act on your passion that you’re not paying attention to because you’re not acting on it, why should it send you more? If you’re not taking the action, it will seem as if the conversation has stopped because it’s waiting for you to take action on what it’s already given you. Because there’s no point in giving you more opportunities if you’re not acting on the ones that it’s already given you. Yes?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: So if you want to feel that flow and feel the connection that is there, it’s important to act on your passion so that you can connect in your awareness with your higher mind and get more opportunities from it and be more excited to do more things, and that will continue the conversation. But you’re stopping the conversation if you’re not actually taking action on what it’s already given you. Yes? Make sense?

Questioner: Yes. Is this helping? Bashar: Yes. All right. So what could you be doing that you’re not doing?

Questioner: I’m taking more action on what… on… I’m asking you specifically. Doing what would you rather be doing that you’re not doing? Making the right decisions for myself. Bashar: You’re not really responding. I’m asking you for a physiological expression. I understand that what you’re working on is also part of the idea of creating your own balance in life. Yes. But I’m actually asking you: how do you want to creatively express this in physical terms in your reality? Is there something that you would prefer to be doing outwardly that you’re not doing as a creative expression? Painting, writing, singing, dancing? You understand what I’m saying?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: So is there something?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: What?

Questioner: Dancing. Bashar: All right. Why aren’t you dancing?

Questioner: All right. Why aren’t you… what are all the reasons you’re creating for not doing that? Come on, spit them out. Questioner: Um, number one: time. Bashar: You don’t have time? Is that what you’re saying?

Questioner: Um, I do have time. I’m just telling myself I don’t. Bashar: Speak up. I do have time, but I’m telling myself I don’t. And why would you do that? What are you afraid of? Come on, what are you afraid of?

Questioner: I’m a student. Bashar: So? And a student of what? To study? I thought you said that you were excited about dancing. Yes. So again, you’re not yet giving me the reason why you’re not doing it. You just said you know it’s an excuse that you don’t have time. So you know you have time. So why aren’t you doing it? Why aren’t you acting on it to the best you can? Why? Why? Why? Come on.

Questioner: I will work on it. Bashar: No, no, no. Answer the question. You’re not getting off that easy. Why? What are you afraid of if you move forward?

Questioner: I don’t really know. Bashar: Yes, you do. Yes, you do. What are you afraid will happen? Come on, dig deep. Um, imagine yourself moving forward. What does dancing mean to you? Are you talking about taking a dance class? Are you talking about doing a performance? What are you talking about?

Questioner: I just… I just like to go out and dance. Bashar: Where at?

Questioner: Um, anywhere. Clubs, parties. Bashar: And so do I. I do. But not as much as I’d like to. And again, why not?

Questioner: Because… yes, I don’t take action on it. Bashar: All right. But why not? What are you afraid of?

Questioner: I’m afraid of… come on, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid of looking silly? Are you afraid of people judging you? What are you afraid of?

Questioner: Neither. Bashar: Then why don’t you do it? If that’s what you’re saying you’d be excited to do, yes. Why aren’t you doing it? What’s the reason?

Questioner: All right, we have all the time in the world. I don’t really… I mean, what’s the reason? Give me a reason. Doesn’t have to be the reason. Give me a reason why you’re not doing it. Questioner: Because I take the time to, rather than to go out to go dance, I take the time to study. Bashar: Can’t you do both?

Questioner: Yes. But lately I’ve been having trouble managing my time. Bashar: I see. Usually, again, when people experience a challenge managing their time, it usually means it’s because you’re doing something you don’t prefer to do, or you’re doing something you do prefer to do but not in a way you prefer to do it. Because remember, what’s the second tool in the kit? The organizing principle of synchronicity. What that means is, if you do the things that you really are passionate about doing in the way you’re passionate about doing it, synchronicity organizes the time for you. You don’t have to manage it. It’s automatically managed by synchronicity bringing you the opportunity. It lasts just exactly as long as it needs to, and then it gives you an indication that there’s something else you need to be doing that’s also another representation of your passion. So you need to examine all the things you’re actually choosing to do. Examine honestly whether or not they really are representative of your passion, or if they are, examine whether you could do them in a way that is more representative of your passion other than the way in which you’re doing them. So when you say things like, “Well, I need to study,” are you studying about something that you’re passionate about or not?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: All right. Is there a way you could go about studying that is actually more exciting than the way you’re doing it?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: Then do that. Remember, when we talk about acting on your excitement, all the components have to be in alignment: what it is you’re doing, how it is you’re doing it, with whom you’re doing it, where you’re doing it, why you’re doing it. It all has to be aligned. So if any one of those components isn’t representative of the most exciting way you could be doing it—where you could be doing it in the most exciting place, with whom you could be doing it—then you’re not following your excitement. All the components have to be part of the holistic system. So if you can open up your imagination and start doing what you’re doing that is only representative of your excitement in the way that would be most exciting, then everything will start organizing itself and you will find you have exactly the amount of time you need for every single expression of your passion. It’ll self-organize. It leaves nothing out.

Questioner: Yes. Is this helping? Bashar: Yes. All right. Can you wrap your mind around that?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: All right. Anything else?

Questioner: Um, yes. Is acting on my passion… will it help me not… uh, because I’d like to also learn how to swim. Bashar: Go ahead. And do you think that swimming would be left out of that formula if it’s part of your passion? Why would it be left out of that formula? Right? Did we say that it leaves nothing relevant out?

Questioner: Right. But I’m very afraid of drowning. Bashar: You are afraid of drowning. Well, if you learn to swim, you probably won’t drown, right? But… and so what if you did drown?

(Laughter)

Bashar: Oops. Again, pay attention. Organizing principle means everything is organized. Which means if suddenly you are learning to swim and you find that you’re having a little bit of difficulty, a little bit of a challenge, guess what might happen if you’re following your passion and it’s not your time to die? Guess what might happen? Gee, someone will show up to help you. Right? What a shock. Do you understand?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: And if it is the time you chose to pass into Spirit, then it’s your choice. Who cares? You’ll still be fine. You’ll just be swimming in the ethers. But if it’s not your time that you’ve chosen, then synchronicity will bring you what you need to allow you to experience an expression of your passion. If that means someone may come along to help you, or something else may happen that allows you to know that you’ll be all right—including an awareness of common sense. Yes. Because common sense on your planet isn’t common. So in other words, don’t allow yourself to get caught up in things that actually don’t make sense. If you’re learning to swim, don’t start in the deep end.

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: Yes. All right. So let certain things simply be obvious, and that will be in alignment with your passion. Yeah. Don’t get confused about the idea of, “Well, it’s my passion to learn to swim, so I’m just going to jump into a roaring ocean in the deepest part of it when I don’t know how to swim.” Then you’re not really following your passion. Not really. Because you’re not allowing yourself some common sense in there as well. You follow me?

Questioner: Yes. Bashar: You’re actually making a choice to increase the probability of death. Now, some people can do that and be okay. But that’s an exciting path that they’ve chosen. If it’s not your path, if it’s not your passion to push yourself to the limit knowing that you want that level of challenge—that that is part of your path—then don’t do that. Know who you are, know yourself, and then everything will be fine.

Questioner: Yes. Yes. It’s all right to take it a step at a time. That’s perfectly fine. You don’t have to push yourself beyond what it is your belief system says is appropriate for you. Remember, you are all eternal beings. What’s your hurry?

Questioner: Yes. Yes. All right. But do give yourself an opportunity to act on your passion when you can. Bashar: Yes. And then eventually it will prove to you that it always works.
