Part 1
Hi. Are we feeling alive? Yes, thank you. Thank you. A week ago this past weekend, it was my perception that there was a general shift of the mass consciousness through an energy doorway which was characterized by a great deal of sadness And in attempting to understand the sadness, what I got was that it was the sadness connected with letting go of excess baggage that we would be better off without. In a sense, yes. And I was interested in your perception. That is quite accurate. There is a stronger gateway coming up on your March 15th date as well. Characterized by what? By similar transformations. It is a very strong collective gateway. And you may find, again, that individuals will really Individuals will release what they no longer need. Not that they have to release it in a negative way, in the idea of loss or sadness, but that is simply a habitual way your society still thinks of the idea of change, that you are losing something, rather than simply changing into another representation with the same energy. But the more you incorporate these experiences, the more gateways you walk through, very soon you will pass over that threshold, wherein each and every every every other. one of these transformations will be felt with ecstasy rather than the sense of loss, because you will know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, by then, that you really lose nothing. That nothing ever really goes anywhere. It only changes. But you have accurately defined the sensation. Thank you. Thank you. You always, or often, anyway, speak of following our excitement. Yes. And yet my perception is that at least at certain levels of spiritual evolution, I observe on this planet what looks to me like people being excited or drawn to things which are addictive or self-destructive, like being excited by drugs or... All right. But do remember that if you truly examine that energy, you will find that it is not the expression of the energy as excitement. It is the expression of the energy as anxiety. Because excitement and anxiety, as we have said, are the same energy and it may be a very fine line for many individuals as to what they are actually expressing. But anyone that finds the idea of needing the tool because they believe that it is the tool that has the power rather than themselves will actually be expressing the energy in terms of anxiety. They may call it excitement, but it is not the true expression of positive excitement and knowingness. It is anxiety, and it is in that sense a discounting of many portions and a not invalidation of many portions of themselves. They think it is excitement to overlook the fact of the things they fear to face about themselves because they think that it will be an ordeal to face those things and they do not want to face that.

excitement, but it is not the true expression of positive excitement and knowingness. It is anxiety, and it is in that sense a discounting of many portions and a not invalidation of many portions of themselves. They think it is excitement to overlook the fact of the things they fear to face about themselves because they think that it will be an ordeal to face those things and they do not want to face that. So they will pretend that the anxiety they feel is truly excitement when it isn't. You follow me? I do follow you exactly. So that the... This is a point on which I and other people have expressed confusion to myself. Other people have... So to understand it clearly, the way to... The way to understand the difference is to simply observe what type of energy is being utilized in the creation of that scenario. If the individuals, again, are placing the power outside of themselves, then it is an act in a negative direction. If they understand that the power is within them in that way, and that they are a part of infinite creation, then you will not see them in such great expression of need. So the way... for an individual to discern for himself or herself whether the excitement they feel is genuine excitement or anxiety is to examine whether they are moving toward whatever it is that seems to be producing the excitement, the area, with a sense that the power lies within them or whether they're reaching out thinking that that's going to solve everything for them. Yes. Okay. Thank you. And finally, I'm presently for my own evolution, concentrating on developing my emotional body in the sense that there's a physical body, an emotional body, and emotional body, and a spiritual body. Oh, developing it. Well... Yes. Okay. It's my experience of myself that through various practices, I was able to, if you will, develop greatly the spiritual and the mental at the expense or forgetting or putting aside. Okay. The emotional body. Yes. Now, either you're going to say, but that's impossible and it's merely the way you were looking at it. But what I'm interested in asking you is for your help. It's for, well, whatever you're going to give me back, as far as far as I think that I'm engaged in the process of expanding my emotional and physical body to the... Oh, you think you are or you feel you are. You are? No. Well, I'll feel that I am engaged in that endeavor, and I was going to ask for whatever thoughts you might have. All right. We have just given you one clue. To assist in that. Yes. I got that clue. All right. Anything else. One other suggestion we can perhaps suggest is to perhaps cease to think of yourself as separated bodies.

Oh, you think you are or you feel you are. You are? No. Well, I'll feel that I am engaged in that endeavor, and I was going to ask for whatever thoughts you might have. All right. We have just given you one clue. To assist in that. Yes. I got that clue. All right. Anything else. One other suggestion we can perhaps suggest is to perhaps cease to think of yourself as separated bodies. And to simply assume that they are all simply different expressions of one idea, so that there will not be so much segregation between them, so that a change in anyone will be a change in all, and that you can simply relax into the assumption that all of them are developing, quote unquote, accordingly. And that will fill you with a nice feeling. And then you will know that your emotional body is wide awake when you feel the feeling that you are doing just fine. just fine. I understand that, but I'm also aware that people, there is an expression that people use, people involved in the process of developing growth in themselves and others, the expression that people, a person is not grounded or things like that. That's what I'm... You are afraid of that occurring to you? No, I'm not afraid at all. I'm interested... Why did you bring it up? I'm interested in increasing the degree to which I am grounded in this throughout various planes of existence, I guess would be a better way of putting it. May I ask you a question? Sure. Thank you. What is your definition of the development of the so-called emotional body? Well, that's what I didn't have a clear imaginative conception of, which is what I was actually going to ask you to help me arrive at because I thought if I had a clear conception, imaginative conception, it would speed the process. Ah. Perhaps what is getting in your way is the fact that you think there needs to be a definition at all and you're spending time looking for something which doesn't necessarily have to exist in your reality. No, I haven't been spending a lot of time worrying about the imaginative. I did not say you were worrying about it. Well, I wasn't even spending any time trying to find it. I've been spending most of my time doing things that seem to me would be effective at, if you will, developing my emotional body as opposed to other things. opposed to other bodies, recognizing that each one is simply a manifestation of the same single thing. All right. But you must somewhere within your imagination have a picture or a definition of a scenario wherein you would recognize a time, a place, an action on your part that would represent the development of the emotional body. What does that picture look like? How will you know when it is developed? Being completely...

other things. opposed to other bodies, recognizing that each one is simply a manifestation of the same single thing. All right. But you must somewhere within your imagination have a picture or a definition of a scenario wherein you would recognize a time, a place, an action on your part that would represent the development of the emotional body. What does that picture look like? How will you know when it is developed? Being completely... able to give and receive and tolerate. Tolerate? Well, one moment. That is quite different. Quite different. If you are looking for toleration... No, no, no. Wrong choice of the word. All right. It's not what I meant. It's what I said. But it's not what I meant. What I was thinking of was giving, receiving, and also being in the presence of on a crossflow all different kinds of emotions with great exuberance and high volume. So you can imagine this, yes? You've just helped me do it, thank you. Then know, as we have discussed, that if you can imagine it, all you have to do is act like the picture you imagine and you will create the effect in your life that is reflective of the type of life that that type of being has. That is all you need to do. Act like the picture you have created of what it would be like to be that type of being. And you will be that type of being. being. Follow your picture. Create your self image. Does that assist you? Yes. Thank you. Are you sure? Yes, it does. I was wondering how, one more thing, how to increase the interconnectedness to one, how can one increase one's interconnectedness to the all that is? You can't. You are as well. connected as you will ever be. You can increase your awareness of your interconnectedness by doing what we just suggested. Creating an image that you desire and prefer, and then acting like that image is true for you, like that is a real way that you can be. And then you will see that you are interconnected by the results you get by acting like the image you have created. By believing in it, by believing it is real. By believing that because you have the ability to imagine it, that that's who you are. And acting that. like that. You follow me. I do. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much.
