Minutes And Counting (Part 2 of 2)

November 11th. Yes, thank you. 157. Wow. This is my first experience with you here. Oh, this is my first experience with you. Congratulations. Thank you. So I have a mundane question. There are no mundane question. Oh, great. That's good to know. Thank you. Is it important to you? Yes, it is. Why would you consider it mundane then? Because I felt like everyone else was asking questions that pertain to other... Oh, big cosmic issues. Yes, and I... The daily questions of physical life are just as spiritual as any other question. Do you understand? Yes, thank you. Equality to all. Yes. If it is important to you, it is not mundane. Thank you. All right. What is your question? My question is, I'm in a work environment where I want to know what my purpose there is, and how soon can I get unstuck to create the life that I really want, that I prefer. All right. The way we usually go about exploring this issue is to ask you a question, and certainly not a mundane one at all. The question we ask is, are you doing what excites you the most? in life or not? No. Thank you for your honesty. The next question is, when will you choose to do what excites you the most in life? Bigger question. I wanted to choose it yesterday, but... And you didn't because? What belief systems are holding you back? Fear. Of? Fear of... Fear of... Yes. Fear of... Fear of... Of what? Choosing something in that not really being what really brings me joy. So you're saying that if you choose something that excites you, you might actually be choosing something that doesn't excite you. Well, my challenge is choosing something that excites me, because it may... Why is that a challenge? That's easy to do. Yes, okay. Do you believe that? Obviously not. No. All right. May I explain it to you? in a way that will allow it to seem easier? Yes, please. Why, thank you. The idea that has been, in a sense, perpetrated throughout much of your new age consciousness of following your bliss and acting on your excitement usually doesn't come with a clear explanation of why or how to do that. The idea simply is to understand it, first and foremost, in a very simplified manner, as follows. When we talk about the idea of acting on your journey, your highest excitement at any given moment, we don't necessarily mean that it has to be a life-spanning career, a gigantic project, an all-consuming endeavor. We literally mean, act on whatever is at any given moment, out of all the choices you have available to you, many of which may seem mundane. Just act at any given moment on the one that contains the high amount of excitement out of all the choices you have the ability to take action on. Period! That's it. It's that simple. Excitement is a thread.

a life-spanning career, a gigantic project, an all-consuming endeavor. We literally mean, act on whatever is at any given moment, out of all the choices you have available to you, many of which may seem mundane. Just act at any given moment on the one that contains the high amount of excitement out of all the choices you have the ability to take action on. Period! That's it. It's that simple. Excitement is a thread. It leads to all other excitement. So if you are simply sitting around going, oh, I don't know what excites me, just look at what your options are. Just list your options at that moment. If the only options are, go shopping, take a walk on the beach, call a friend, just for an example, just pick the one that's most exciting and act on it to the best of your ability, taking it as far as you can, till you can take it no further. When you come to the next crossroad, look at the options available to you then. Pick the one that's most exciting. You have the greatest degree of ability to take action on and take action on it. When you come to the next crossroad, do the same thing. When you come to the next crossroad, do the same thing. The excitement that you follow will automatically draw you into a series of synchronistic events that will constantly accelerate and expand your ability to experience excitement and constantly accelerate and increase your ability to experience that your excitement will actually be capable of supporting you in your life if you keep moving in that way. Does that make sense to you? Yes. Now, the question is, do you believe it? Because the idea is that when we, first of all, offer the idea that all you have to do at any given moment is simply choose out of the relatively normal options available to you. If you can't think of any all-encompassing excitement, if you just choose the most exciting option out of whatever is available to you and act on it, when we offer that suggestion up, very often the first thing that comes out of the human mind is, but that's not connected to this, or how can that support me? I don't understand. You don't have to understand. That's the beauty of it. The idea is that your physical mind is not designed, never was and never will be designed, to understand how things will happen. It is not designed to understand or comprehend how something that you act on that excites you will bring you the thing you need somewhere down the line. So you don't have to think about how that's going to happen. All you have to do is act on it knowing that it will. Because the human mind is only designed to experience how things are happening. That's it.

designed, to understand how things will happen. It is not designed to understand or comprehend how something that you act on that excites you will bring you the thing you need somewhere down the line. So you don't have to think about how that's going to happen. All you have to do is act on it knowing that it will. Because the human mind is only designed to experience how things are happening. That's it. The human mind is only designed, the physical mind is only designed to understand the physical experience. The mechanism of how these things come to you come from a higher realm that is beyond the purview of the physical mind to comprehend or understand or be able to completely perceive. So you need to stop doing the job of the higher mind, let the higher mind do its job, and bring you these things as you need them in the way that it benefits you best, all you need to do to activate that mechanism, and we'll be talking a little bit more tomorrow about the idea of the mechanism of manifestation in a more complete investigation of that mechanism. But the only thing you really have to do is just start the ball rolling. By acting on whatever excitement you are capable of acting on, and thus then by doing so, acting as an example to the higher mind, proving that you're willing to move in that direction so that the higher mind can go, ah, finally, she is willing to act in that vibration, so I can now give her more of that vibration, more things that are representative of that vibration, because she is showing by her behavior that she's willing to act on it. But if you're not willing to act on your excitement, why should the higher mind give you something to act on if you're not going to act on it? You see, you have to clear the space by acting on what you are capable of acting on, before you make room for something bigger to come in. Because if you're not going to act on what you've got, well, higher mind is not going to do pointless things and give you things you're not going to act on, so you simply stop the whole process of your excitement expanding. Does that make sense, mechanically? Yes. Are you willing to believe that you can act on your excitement and know that it will lead you where you need to be led? Yes. Trusting the synchronicity that will occur? Yes. We'll see. But that's the the basic explanation of how it works. So when you say you have a difficult time figuring out what excites you, I apologize, but we actually don't believe you. Because it's really simpler than you think. You're just having a difficult time understanding a clear definition of excitement and following it. You follow? I do follow.

where you need to be led? Yes. Trusting the synchronicity that will occur? Yes. We'll see. But that's the the basic explanation of how it works. So when you say you have a difficult time figuring out what excites you, I apologize, but we actually don't believe you. Because it's really simpler than you think. You're just having a difficult time understanding a clear definition of excitement and following it. You follow? I do follow. I think the other part of that is because if I'm in a work environment and my excitement may be not to be there. Then leave. Although. Understand. We are very aware of what your belief systems are all about, many of you. And if you have a belief system that says if you leave that work environment, as much as you may not find that exciting, if you have a belief system that says that leaving that work environment is going to put stress on you, is going to, in a sense, cause you harm in some way, then you must honor your belief system for as long as you're going to hold on to it. But at least take the steps you can take, at least take the steps of it. acting on your excitement that you are willing to take, and the more you do that, the more your excitement will prove to you that it can support you as well. And the more it shows you it can support you, the more you'll be willing to let go of those things you don't prefer. So you can do it at your own pace. Don't dishonor your belief system. You can jump off the cliff, but only if you believe that you actually will fly. Otherwise, I would suggest you're in for a very hard landing. So don't dishonor your belief system. Don't just think. all right, I'll just throw caution to the wind and ignore my beliefs. That will always get you smacking into that brick wall we're going to talk about tomorrow. But the idea is that when you work with your beliefs and understand why you have the belief that you can't be supported in something that you love as opposed to something you don't love, then when you work with those beliefs, you can change them. And the more you change them, the more you will relax into understanding how your excitement can, in fact, support you. One very strong exercise that I would always suggest to many of you, because it is based in your own reality so it has more opportunity to stick in your mind is to look at examples in your world of people that are making a living, in fact making a wonderful living, being supported by doing nothing but the thing that excites them the most.

into understanding how your excitement can, in fact, support you. One very strong exercise that I would always suggest to many of you, because it is based in your own reality so it has more opportunity to stick in your mind is to look at examples in your world of people that are making a living, in fact making a wonderful living, being supported by doing nothing but the thing that excites them the most. Because I guarantee you when you look at them and understand how they're doing that, you will understand that if they can do it, you can do it. There is nothing special about them in that context. If you can see it, if you can attract into your reality an example of someone acting on their joy and being supported in their life by doing so, if you could have attracted that example into your reality, if you are capable of even perceiving it, that means you are capable of living it. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been capable of perceiving it because reality doesn't do pointless things and you cannot perceive what you are not the potential vibration of. You follow? Yes. Does this help? Yes, thank you very much. Thank you. That was exciting. Bashar, we have a question from our News for the Soul listeners. Oh, all right. And this question is, why do we exist at all right? Because you have to. I'll put it another way. Existence simply is. The question why does existence exist is is a question created within existence. The question is subject to existence. Existence is not subject to the question. Existence only has one quality to exist. Therefore, that which exists simply exists. It doesn't in any way, shape, or form need to justify its existence by asking, why does it exist? Existence exists because that's the quality it exhibits. Existence. That's amazing. We think so. All the things that will never exist already don't exist. There's no room in non-existence for the things that do exist. Therefore, if it exists, it doesn't need to explain why it exists. It exists because it's not non-existence. Therefore, the only other place it can be is in existence. That's the ultimate polarity of creation. I get the feeling that the people on your planet enjoy that kind of thinking. We do. There was one other question that I thought I'd slip in here. Oh, all right. Another list. And that is, what's the best way to overcome a phobia? It depends. There is no one best way. It depends upon the person. It depends upon their belief systems. It depends upon what permission slips work best for them. The best way, euphemistically, is their way. Whatever their imagination tells them is their best way. There are any number of suggestions we can make, depending upon the person, depending upon the phobia, but you have to go on a case-by-case basis.

to overcome a phobia? It depends. There is no one best way. It depends upon the person. It depends upon their belief systems. It depends upon what permission slips work best for them. The best way, euphemistically, is their way. Whatever their imagination tells them is their best way. There are any number of suggestions we can make, depending upon the person, depending upon the phobia, but you have to go on a case-by-case basis. there may not necessarily be a generalized idea that will work for all people. Well, what is the basis of phobia? The basis of phobia is the idea of a belief system that allows you to see a representation of the belief that you are completely out of control. Does that make sense? Yeah, and so... So the specific phobia is a symbolic representation of the kind of belief, the kind of experience of being out of control that the person has. So, if you wish to carry this further, you could say the best way, quote unquote, to understand how to create or alleviate the creation of the phobia is to understand the symbology of what it is the person is phobic about as a symbolic representation of the control issue they feel that they lack within themselves. A lot of times people think they're connected like with a past life. In a sense, it can be. However, remember that from our point of view, there really is no such thing as the past or the future. So if they feel it's connected to another parallel, simultaneously coexistent experience, they have to understand that they're actually choosing to create that from the present life and simply cross-connect to another presently existing life for a purpose, for a reason, for an exploration, for an experience, for a lesson. So when they get, first of all, in touch with the idea that it doesn't come from the past, it is a present connection, therefore it brings it into the present, it brings it more into control, they will understand they have more control about how to deal with it, because it's not coming from some deep, dark, mysterious past that they can't access. It's all being created now in the present because here and now is all there is. There is no past. There is no future. There is only now. Does that make sense? Yeah, it sounds like a person will choose a corresponding life, a parallel life, that has a symbolic representation of an issue that they're dealing with. Yes, they could. And in examining that, if that's one thing they would like to do, they don't have to. But in examining that, it might give them some reflective insight into what they have chosen to. for themselves in the life that they are dealing with. If they resolve the issue, is that, that's one of the paths, obviously, for... That's one way. ...allivating it. But there's also things like desensitization.

they're dealing with. Yes, they could. And in examining that, if that's one thing they would like to do, they don't have to. But in examining that, it might give them some reflective insight into what they have chosen to. for themselves in the life that they are dealing with. If they resolve the issue, is that, that's one of the paths, obviously, for... That's one way. ...allivating it. But there's also things like desensitization. There are any number of techniques and tools and permission slips. It depends on the person. It depends on the choice. It depends on the experience they have chosen. It depends on a case-by-case basis. Depends on the beliefs. Okay. Depends on the purpose for why they are having... that experience, depends on what they're going to get out of it, depends on what they're going to learn, depends on how it will expand them, depends on many things. However, if you wish to break it down generally to the quote-unquote, again, best way, by always acting to the best of your ability on the thing that excites you the most, that process in and of itself will always force you to face whatever issues need to be faced and integrated to allow you to continue on the path of acting on your excitement. Now, of course, if someone is phobic about acting on their excitement, they may be creating an interesting, vicious circle experience for themselves. Nevertheless, it will still, by being willing to take any action in that direction at all, open up the synchronicity that will bring to them whatever experience they need to face that issue and bring also with it all the information necessary. to deal with that issue if they are open to it. We understand that very often negative beliefs and fear may make it seem as if that's the last thing they want to do, but that's one of the things we're also going to be discussing tomorrow in terms of x-raying the structure of negative beliefs. So, for the idea of phobias, really understanding the structure of the belief that is causing the phobia can also be of great assistance, but the structure of that belief may vary from phobia to phobia, person to person. So there's no, again, exactly one best way, but on a very fundamental level, certainly understanding the structure of the belief that's causing the phobia can at least give a person a head start. All right. Okay, that's great. Thank you. Thank you. Hello. And are you good day? I only have two questions. Oh, only two. Oh, all right. My first question is, is I am experiencing a lot of change in transition like many people, a lot of what I've built up, Congratulations. I've had to let go of. Yes. And I'm just wondering if there's anything that you could tell us that will help this transition move a little bit more smoothly? Thought I just did.

And are you good day? I only have two questions. Oh, only two. Oh, all right. My first question is, is I am experiencing a lot of change in transition like many people, a lot of what I've built up, Congratulations. I've had to let go of. Yes. And I'm just wondering if there's anything that you could tell us that will help this transition move a little bit more smoothly? Thought I just did. Act on your highest joy to the best of your ability. Now, understand this. When we talk about acting on your excitement, it's because we know that excitement is actually a complete kit. It's the driving engine and the organizing principle of your entire wife. So when you act on it, fully as best as you can, what will come with it are all the things necessary to actually allow you to expand in the smoothest, most effortless, most joyful way possible. It's a complete kit. It's self-contained. You don't necessarily need to do anything extra beyond the idea of fully acting with integrity for the best of your ability on your highest excitement in order to attract whatever you need synchronistically to allow you to experience your life in the smoothest way possible. As long as you're always willing to face and integrate and work with and deal with whatever your excitement brings up, then you will find that you'll be able to move forward in the smoothest possible way. Your willingness to allow whatever issue comes up, whatever belief comes up, whatever fear comes up, your willingness to allow it to be there for a reason and use it in a positive way is what will smooth out all the bumps. When you make fear your friend, when you say it's a messenger, telling you something about yourself that you want to know when you understand that fear is nothing but your own energy simply being filtered through belief systems that are out of alignment with your true self, then you can say thank you fear for coming up, thank you issue for coming up and pointing out to me that I have a belief that's out of alignment with my preferred true natural core self. And as soon as you identify the belief in that way and relate to the belief in that way and make a friend of your belief in that way, it will smooth out the fear energy into joy and excitement and give you the opportunity to utilize that understanding and that knowledge in the best possible way. Does that make sense to you? It does, but couldn't we have done this without all of this mass disintegration of all that we knew? Couldn't we have done this a different way? Why is it that we're experiencing this way? There are many ways to do things. This particular reality is the way things are done.

excitement and give you the opportunity to utilize that understanding and that knowledge in the best possible way. Does that make sense to you? It does, but couldn't we have done this without all of this mass disintegration of all that we knew? Couldn't we have done this a different way? Why is it that we're experiencing this way? There are many ways to do things. This particular reality is the way things are done. You are also, as a soul, having experiences in other realities where things are done differently, but you also chose to be here. Because you wanted to experience this way as well, because it's one of the valid ways to experience the idea of creation. Breakdown, buildup, destruction, creation. It's a very valid way to experience the idea of creation. And again, when you learn to enjoy it for what it is, you will smooth out the bumps in it. Many individuals on your planet have talked to us about the idea that you feel like you're stuck in some kind of remedial kindergarten class, a school of hard knocks, a suffering planet. We choose to view this as a master graduating class. So the idea is that, yes, all right, college, university, sure, it's a little tougher than high school, but you're up to it because now you are in the master class. So the more you know that's what it is and the more you treat it as such, the more benefit you will receive from the way things are structured and the smoother things will get and you will not have to experience it that way anymore. But the idea is, again, using the power of paradox. When you allow it to be all right to experience it the way you are experiencing it, you will no longer have a reason to experience it that way. It's only the resistance to the way you're experiencing it that makes that experience take longer to change. I get it. Thank you. I knew you would. My last question is for the past year during meditation or a time where I'm slowing my mind down to connect, I'm experiencing a lot of pressure in my head. Yes. Could you explain what that's about? There are sometimes different symptomologies when you are realigning energies. Sometimes there are physiological side effects or symptomologies. That's all right. They will dissipate as you become more smoothly aligned and less resistant to certain kinds of change, those pressures will smooth out. Right now, it's simply the idea that the energy you are attempting to integrate in your estimation, in your belief system, in your definition, is simply more than you're used to. You don't feel equal to it yet. Therefore, as we have euphemistically said by analogy, it's like you are trying to download a dam full of water through a garden hose.

and less resistant to certain kinds of change, those pressures will smooth out. Right now, it's simply the idea that the energy you are attempting to integrate in your estimation, in your belief system, in your definition, is simply more than you're used to. You don't feel equal to it yet. Therefore, as we have euphemistically said by analogy, it's like you are trying to download a dam full of water through a garden hose. there is pressure but when you widen the hose into a giant conduit the pressure will be relieved because you become more equal to the energy you are channeling you follow yes I do does that help yes thank you thank you I'm sorry and are you good day I was wondering how I would become a Jedi Knight I suppose by going out for a part in the movie what is a Jedi knight to you what's your definition of that term a selfless individual who can feel the life force of other people and beings around I guess of anything and can when you say selfless what do you mean they do good for others they they do things for the benefit of others without all right doing it for themselves like but you understand that when you do things for the benefit of others that is actually the best way to benefit yourself yes I understand so you are not selfless so I'm very selfish at then and you're not selfish you can however simply become self-contained so the idea is that you understand you are connected to everything and when you understand and behave that way you will know you are included because you are a part of everything and cannot be left out therefore you don't have to focus focus on yourself so if that's what you mean by selfless then fine but it doesn't mean you're actually selfless it simply means you're not self-focused gotcha you're focused on the big picture of which you are a part hmm does that make sense that does make sense all right then is that being closer to being a Jedi knight yeah but there's other parts too oh all right and what are they um I guess being able I'm not going to tell you how to build a lightsaber I don't need to learn how to do that that's that's that's a relevant for you all right just checking how um how how would I do the supernatural things that they do super natural well the things that society would deem supernatural that I oh you mean the things that they do that come naturally to them when they operate on a higher frequency sure well operate on a higher frequency and how do I do that I already told you follow my highest passion yes well there we go Behave in the manner that you wish your reality to reflect. Cool. Whatever temperature you want.

do super natural well the things that society would deem supernatural that I oh you mean the things that they do that come naturally to them when they operate on a higher frequency sure well operate on a higher frequency and how do I do that I already told you follow my highest passion yes well there we go Behave in the manner that you wish your reality to reflect. Cool. Whatever temperature you want. Another question I have is, um, like in my comparative religion class at school, the Harri Krishna's came into our class and they worshipped Krishna as like God. Yes. Was that person like the physical manifestation of all that is or is it just every person is a physical manifestation of all that is nevertheless some will in a sense as we were just speaking of exhibit more of those qualities more openly thus then they often become in a sense well focal points for that idea however because of the kind of belief systems that many humans have been taught on your planet they often then instead of actually getting the point they worship the person they worship the person Because the point of any of those advanced teachers is that you are Krishna's too. You are Buddhists too. You are Christ's too. And they all say as much, but most people ignore that part of the message. And just worship and proselytize instead of actually behaving as if. You follow? Yeah. Does that help? That does help. Another question I have is, um, um, I taught like a monk came to our class too, a Buddhist monk and he said Nirvana was different than enlightenment and that the Buddha achieved Nirvana, which is he had he never, he didn't, he saw, he ended all suffering forever for his being. Is that? Again, the idea is that you have been given many examples of how to create certain states of being for yourself in which you do not have to experience the idea of challenge as suffering. Whether you allow yourself. to begin to behave that way and take on that state of being is completely up to you. But you have been demonstrated this many, many times by many teachers. So in that sense, that's the way to understand the statement. They've done this for you. So you don't have to do it again. But you can choose to do it again. You can choose to suffer. But because they've already demonstrated how you don't have to, you don't have to. Cool. Cool. Hey, I got you. Oh, all right. You like that temperature, don't you? Yeah, I do. All right. Thank you. Wait, one last one. One question. Okay. So you've talked before that we're moving through time and space. Well, in a sense, that's your experience. However faster, let's say you're moving 50% through, like, space, like 50% the speed of light. Yeah. That means your time is 50% slower.

you don't have to. Cool. Cool. Hey, I got you. Oh, all right. You like that temperature, don't you? Yeah, I do. All right. Thank you. Wait, one last one. One question. Okay. So you've talked before that we're moving through time and space. Well, in a sense, that's your experience. However faster, let's say you're moving 50% through, like, space, like 50% the speed of light. Yeah. That means your time is 50% slower. And space is 50%. But the speed of light is a speed limit. It's a speed limit of your particular dimensional reality. But it's the border between your dimension and another one. But I can imagine a speed. higher than that. And there is. Oh, okay. That makes sense then. It's just that within your dimension, that's the upper limit of your physical reality. It doesn't mean there aren't faster speeds in other realities and other dimensions. Could I change it in my reality? Or is that? You have to shift to that other dimensional reality in order to experience that because it doesn't, in a sense, have relevance in your physical reality. Okay. Instantaneous teleportation has been experienced by many individuals, even on your planet. That's. shifting to another dimension where this so-called concept of speed has no meaning. You simply are here, then you are there. No traveling in between. That's awesome. So it can be called infinite speed. Makes sense? It does. Thank you. Another question from a news for the soul listener. Oh, all right. You said we make good TV. Yes. How do you see us? Like this, sometimes like this, sometimes like this. Can you be more specific about what you mean by that question? Yeah, I guess the question is, how do beings that are outside our planet see us and... Well, we have different...
