I'll say good day to you this day of your time. How are you all? We will once again thank each and every one of you for allowing us to communicate in this manner through this conduit to your civilization once again. Each and every time we are given an opportunity to interact with your civilization, it is a gift to us that allows us to see yet another way, another variation that infinite creation has of expressing itself. And we thank you for this opportunity. We would like to begin this interaction with the discussion of the following idea. We have recently, in communicating with your species, been talking about that we have observed that your species because of the polarities, the dichotomies, the limitations, the separations, and the segregations you have created within your consciousness does not usually allow you. to understand that you have more ability to access what you need than you think you do. And you get, we have observed sometimes very caught up in the negative side of certain events, when it is a very simple thing really for you to recognize that while you may feel that you only have the ability to draw upon or attract to you or experience within you the negative side of the negative side of, an event or a situation, that in all reality you really do have, at the same time, immediate access to the positive side as well, but being focused on the negative side doesn't allow you to see that. For example, we hear very often many individuals talk about how they would like to do this and they would like to do that, as you say in your language, this, that. And yet they say they do not have the confidence, that they have no confidence. at all. They lack confidence in their ability. And yet we find that when they say that, they are utterly and totally confident about the fact that they have no confidence. This paradox is more than just a play on words, a philosophical musing. You can really understand how to use this paradox, this polarity to your advantage. You always, always, always, always have both sides of a situation at any time, present. There are, as we have said many times, to coin a phrase, no such things as one-sided coins. If you have one side of the coin in your hand, you have the other side. All you have to do is flip it over to see it. The idea, therefore, is to recognize that at any time you feel, anytime you think, anytime you believe that you are in a situation, that you are immersed in a circumstance where you can only perceive, One particular concept, one particular aspect, one particular, shall we say flavor of reality, and more often than not, for many of you, the negative side.

side. All you have to do is flip it over to see it. The idea, therefore, is to recognize that at any time you feel, anytime you think, anytime you believe that you are in a situation, that you are immersed in a circumstance where you can only perceive, One particular concept, one particular aspect, one particular, shall we say flavor of reality, and more often than not, for many of you, the negative side. You have an opportunity to turn it over, flip it over, and recognize that the positive side must, by definition, be there if you only give yourself an opportunity to look for it. Again, for example, many individuals say that they have no conviction about things. Yet they are fully convicted on that fact. Individuals say that they do not trust in something, that they have no faith, and yet their faith is unshakable in the fact that they have no faith. Always you have the other side of the issue, and if you will allow yourself to get in touch with the fact, again, going back to the first example, that if you think you have no confidence, yet realize you're absolutely confident about that, you can allow yourself to feel the confidence you have about believing in your lack of confidence. of confidence because that's exactly what's going on. You are really never not doing something. You are really never not trusting something. You are really never not confident about something. You are always confident. You are always convicted. You are always trusting. It's just a matter of figuring out what it is, what belief, what definition of life you are trusting in. You are confident about. You are never without trust. You are never without. confidence and conviction. When you feel like it, when you feel like you have no confidence or no trust, it's simply because you have bought into a definition. You are trusting in a definition. You are fully confident that a certain definition is the only reality that is true for you. And that's why you have the feeling that you do. But really, in all reality, you are always in the mode of creation. You are never, ever, ever lacking in creativity. I had an individual conversation with one of your members recently and this individual complained that they had in their life a lack of creativity. Yet it was an extreme act of creativity to come up with the idea that they lacked it. It took a lot of creativity to imagine that they had none. And once they understood that, they could learn to incorporate the creativity they had used to create the illusion of a lack of creativity in another direction. So it's just a matter of allowing yourself to know. You cannot have only one side of an issue. You cannot only be polarized, really, in one way. You always have both. If you're focused on one side, the other is lingering around.

imagine that they had none. And once they understood that, they could learn to incorporate the creativity they had used to create the illusion of a lack of creativity in another direction. So it's just a matter of allowing yourself to know. You cannot have only one side of an issue. You cannot only be polarized, really, in one way. You always have both. If you're focused on one side, the other is lingering around. All you need to do to make it visible is remember that both sides must be there, always. Cannot only have one side. It's not the way your reality works. In these interactions, this day of your time, that we shall share. It can thus then be remembered what we are saying now and apply to each and every one of the circumstances that we can talk about so that you, each and every one of you, according to your own desires, according to your own wishes, can apply this information, can apply this recognition and realization to your day-to-day existences in a practical and pragmatic way so that you can create the changes you want because you will find that more often the not. The kind of changes you want to create in your reality is simply a matter of changing the definitions you have been taught about your reality because your physical reality is only the product of what you have been taught to define it to be, of what you have been taught to believe is possible. There is no outside physical reality. There is no empirical physical reality aside from your definition of the experience. So as you change the definition of yourself, as you change the definitions of life that you have bought into, perhaps picking them up from your parents, your peers, your society at large. As you change those definitions, I guarantee you will see changes take place in your apparently externalized reality. For your physical reality is but the shadow of your soul, just a reflection in a mirror. That's all it is. And you can see this demonstrated again in a very practical way. This does not have to remain a high philosophical concept with absolutely no application to your physiological lives. We would not be discussing it if that is all it was. These are really descriptions of the physical mechanisms through which you create your physical reality and by which you can change it in the directions that you prefer. All you have to do is practice these ideas, put them into practice, and you will see the result. But remember, very important, you cannot always gauge whether or not you have changed by how your external reality looks because sometimes certain situations can serve double duty.

These are really descriptions of the physical mechanisms through which you create your physical reality and by which you can change it in the directions that you prefer. All you have to do is practice these ideas, put them into practice, and you will see the result. But remember, very important, you cannot always gauge whether or not you have changed by how your external reality looks because sometimes certain situations can serve double duty. And just because you might have been in a negative mode and attracted a certain kind of situation to you and it looked a certain way and then decide you're going to change into a more positive mode, positive definitions, it doesn't mean that another situation will not crop up that doesn't look exactly the same way that it did when you were creating or attracting it through your negativity. It isn't about always that the situation outside looks different when you have changed. The way you know you have changed is if you respond differently to the situation. Because if you do, you will extract a different effect, a different outcome from the situation, even if it looks like the same situation, you attract it in a negative mode. So do not, as you say, judge the book by its cover. Allow yourself to decide whether you have really changed, not based on whether you appear to continue to see the same things over and over again, but based on whether you continue to react in the same way over and over again and extract from that reaction the same outcome over and over again. If you know you have changed, if you have changed your definition, you have to act like you have changed in all the things that happen. Even if they look the same as they did before, if you respond differently, you will eventually see that you will receive a completely different outcome, a completely different effect from your response. What you put out is what you get back, the third law of creation. Now then, we thank you for allowing us to share these perspectives with you. Let us see now, perhaps, if it is your desire to do so, how these ideas can be applied within the concept of sharing. How, at this time, and in what way, may, I and my civilization be of service to you.
