The Empowerment of Being You

There are many different kinds of belief systems that have more to do with other people’s beliefs than your own.

many of those belief systems are given to you so that you can fulfill the theme you chose to explore.

This theme is to transform beliefs that are not yours and replacing them with beliefs that represent who you are, so that you can experience a transformation of self-empowerment.

So, it’s not like the beliefs that aren’t yours don’t belong there. They let you discover who you are.

Through the process of finding out what those beliefs are that don’t serve you, that are out of alignment with who you are. And as we said, allowing yourself to create the definitions, create the beliefs that work for you, that are truly more representative of your core essence, your core frequency, so that you can through that process empower yourself and become truly you.

When you begin to let go of those beliefs that are not yours, you will feel more empowered, more free, lighter.

Those beliefs that aren’t yours weigh you down.

You feel resistance in your life to acting on your highest passion. There are always reasons that come up to not do so. There are always excuses that seem logical at the time.

Those are your clues that you’re carrying around ideas, beliefs that have nothing to do with you. Those things that belong to you weigh nothing.

They do not weigh you down. In fact, they energize you, drive you forward.

Acting on your highest passion brings the driving engine into your life of energy and allows you to be very excited and very enthusiastic about getting up in the morning and doing whatever it is that excites you at that moment. However, the excitement chooses to express itself.

However you choose to be you that day.

This is a process of self-awareness, self-recognition, self-empowerment.

It begins most crucially with the age-old concept, the age-old saying, “know thyself.”

The most important thing to really dig down and investigate who you are to understand the difference between what is you and what is not you.

Through that process, many of you will attract into your lives quite often things you don’t prefer. But this is because you can use that as a comparison to have clarity between the difference of what you don’t prefer and what you do. So anytime that you may observe something you don’t prefer, it doesn’t mean that you’re on the wrong path. It’s not about what happens. It’s about what you do with what happens.

It’s about how you respond to what happens. It’s about, as we have said, your state of being. And as long as you remain in the state of being that you believe is most representative of who you are, that frequency of energy that is your core essential self, you will always be able to use whatever happens in any given circumstance, in any given situation in a positive way and get a benefit out of it.

No matter how it looks, no matter how it was originated, it does not matter. Only the state of being will allow you to experience your life in the way that you prefer to or in the way that you don’t. So by always choosing to stay in a state of being that is your preferential one, you will always let the empowerment be felt.

You will always allow your power to flow through you. You will not be giving your power away. You will be the best expression of you you can be, which after all is your fundamental purpose in life. To be you, the unique you that you are, as fully as you possibly can. That’s your fundamental purpose.

How you choose to do that is up to you.

Your excitement and synchronicity will show you what is truly you and what is not. So, by all means, follow it and go with the flow. But understand that it’s not about controlling things.

It’s about surrendering. And when we say surrendering, it’s not about giving up control. If that’s the way you’re interpreting the concept of surrender, then you have a definition that doesn’t work and is out of alignment with your true essential core. Surrendering does not mean giving up control.

Surrendering means allowing yourself to let go of what you think control should be and actually accept the control you already naturally have because you all have it.

You’re all in control. You’re just playing a game to pretend that you’re not. So, it’s about letting go and going with the flow of the current that is truly you because that current will carry you exactly where you need to be carried. That’s what surrender means. You’re surrendering to the control you already have by letting yourself be carried by the current that is truly you to the places you really need to go.

Sometimes what you say you want in life can coincide with what you need. But very often what you want may be the product of belief systems that don’t work and ego structures that aren’t necessarily being expressed in your best interest.

So it is always perhaps a little bit more clear and a little bit more constructive to understand that the most important thing is what you need in order to be yourself.

Not so much what you want that you think you need. It’s about what you truly need. And if you let go and go with the flow of your true energy, your true essence, your true current, you will always experience what you need. You just have to begin to really trust the way your life unfolds and stay in that positive state so that no matter what happens, no matter what comes up, you will respond positively.

Stay in that state and you will get the benefit that is always there in every circumstance for you.

We are not delivering a philosophy or an opinion. We are giving you an instruction manual for how reality works. That’s all this is.

It is a simple set of instructions and it is a description of the actual structure of existence and how you create your reality.

So, if you allow yourself to really wrap your mind around the instruction manual, you will be able to utilize the structure of reality, the nature of reality to your advantage instead of utilizing it to your disadvantage. Unless, of course, you’re excited about being disadvantaged. And I won’t stop you if you are.

But you’re all now waking up to your true power. You’re becoming more self-empowered, more self-aware, more aware, and recognizing that you deserve to experience your true self, that you deserve to manifest the things that are truly you because they will always bring you joy. They will always bring you bliss.

They will always empower you. They will always take you exactly where you need to go in perfect timing. And you will be able to walk the path of least resistance in your life.

These are not just nice words. This is not just a philosophy. This is an actual description of how creation is structured. So if you begin to really understand that this is an instruction manual and that there are very few instructions in it, that it is truly a very simplistic idea, then you’ll begin to be able to utilize these tools that are contained within it in a very clear and precise and powerful way. And you will experience your life transforming very magically, very synchronistically in every single area of your life to which you apply these tools, these instructions, these understandings.

You’ll be able to walk through life in a self-empowered way, being the you truly are, the you were created as, and you will, as the puzzle piece, fit perfectly with all other puzzle pieces who are also truly being who they are.

it’s all about acting on your excitement.

Excitement doesn’t mean that you have to be jumping up and down all the time and talking a mile a minute. No, you can be calm, you can be peaceful, you can be meditative and still be expressing your excitement.

The excitement that is true for you. So self-empowerment, being the true you, will align you with everything that you need to be aligned with in perfect timing.

You have in many ways made all of the appointments that you need to make for this life. All the things that you need that are relevant for you can manifest for you in perfect timing.

The only exception to this is to spend your time and energy wondering and worrying if you will miss an appointment. That’s the only way you will miss the appointment.

If you don’t spend your energy and time wondering and worrying, if everything that needs to happen will happen, then everything that needs to happen will happen.

But it will happen in perfect timing. You’re not necessarily always the arbiter of what that timing ought to be. But if you trust the way your life unfolds and you trust the synchronicity tool within the kit of excitement, you will see that whatever amount of time the timing occurs in will actually always be perfect for the amount of time you needed to experience the process of getting you to that point. So that by the time the timing unfolds, you will have the deepest possible appreciation, the deepest possible understanding and the deepest possible experience of whatever it is that is unfolding in perfect timing for you. There is always a reason to go through the process if the process is necessary.

It will always enrich you and give you the ability to fully use whatever it is that manifests for you. Always. Again, by trusting the way your life unfolds.

By trusting that you already have the vibration that you need to give off, it is always radiating from you and always manifesting exactly what needs to be manifest at exactly the right moment. Now again, even if what manifests is you, shall we say, are capable of observing neutrally that it may not be what you prefer, still recognize it must be there for a reason. And that reason is to give you an opportunity to empower yourself by recognizing that it’s not what you prefer, but not going into a non-preferred state about the fact that it is manifested.

Stay in your preferred state and you’ll be able to always extract the lesson, the learning, the benefit from even things you don’t prefer because you will be in a state that will always allow that thing to translate in a way that benefits you to translate in a way that aligns with who you are.

So let this sink in. You don’t have to hold on to every word that we’ve said. We are transmitting energy and information to you on many different levels.

Let it unfold as it needs to. You have missed nothing. And there is more information than what you are hearing with your ears. You will get it. It will unfold within you again in perfect timing. At this timing and once again in return for the gift you are giving to us in allowing us to experience all of you.

Why Killing Feels Good

Audience Member 1: So is it possible in any circumstance for a human being—I’ll preface anything that feels good is in alignment with our soul?

Bashar: No, It is possible and this is why we say know yourself.

It is possible to fool yourself into feeling good about something that is not to your benefit if you’re in denial about the idea of what is to your benefit.

So that’s why you always require an honest self assessment as to whether or not what you’re experiencing is truly in alignment with your excitement or whether you are simply disguising your anxiety as excitement or disguising your excitement as anxiety. When you are clear about what your excitement truly is and you know for a fact that it’s not an expression of anxiety or fear, then yes, in that state, whatever feels good is in alignment with you. But first, you have to know that you’re being honest with yourself about what really is your excitement and what is not. So yes, it’s possible to actually feel good about something that isn’t actually beneficial for you. And in fact, that’s actually quite common on your planet.

We’ve talked about the motivational mechanism a lot and the idea is is that you will always always move toward what you believe to be to your benefit. You will always move away from what you believe is not to your benefit. But if you have a belief attached to the thing that would benefit you that somehow makes it look like it won’t benefit you as much, you will not move toward it and you will actually remain with the thing that doesn’t benefit you because you’ve made it look like the thing that is more beneficial than the thing that would actually benefit you.

Audience Member 1: So if I’m understanding you correct, anything that either moves up the emotional guidance scale or if we disguise our fear as excitement.

Bashar: So, you have to know what the belief system is and be clear about what beliefs you’re buying into know that the feeling that you have is representative of the belief that you prefer rather than simply a glossing over or a disguising of a belief you would actually prefer to let go of.

Audience Member 1: Could a human being ever feel good killing another human being?

Bashar: Of course you can. Obviously, you can or you wouldn’t have so much of it on your planet.

you can put yourself in a state and give yourself reasons to feel good about killing someone else.

if you couldn’t do that, you would not have anywhere near as much killing on your planet.

But deep self-realization will reveal that that is just a lie that we tell ourselves and our soul would never agree with that decision.

But it also depends on the situation.

In other words, if you feel that it is truly truly within the best interest and you are working with a consenting adult who desires to remove them from pain and suffering.

That may actually be a beneficial and positive energy act. So it depends upon the situation.

Be very clear about your motivations for what’s being done.

Bashar: Very good. Now, to back up a little bit, in a sense, yes. In a sense, it’s shall we say the job of people to create their own timing of death without necessarily having to involve someone else. But we understand there are still certain processes of consciousness going on on your planet, still certain kinds of things being explored and examined and you’re not very clear about that. So sometimes it might still happen that someone will request assistance for the idea of the timing of their death. Eventually this will no longer be necessary. As you clarify yourself, you will understand the timing and you’ll be able to create the synchronicity necessary for you to simply do it yourself without necessarily having to involve someone else. Do you follow?

Audience Member 1: I do. Very good.

Bashar: And in the overall sense of what we are saying to you now when it comes right down to it all death is actually suicide. You follow me?

Audience Member 1: Cool. Yeah.

Bashar: Because you are in some way, shape or form creating the timing of leaving physical reality. Yes. That’s always a choice. Correct? In a sense. Yes. You have sometimes set up certain choices ahead of time, so to speak, that may make the timing relatively unchangeable for many people. And yet, there is still in this day and age the possibility and even the probability of changing that timing from within the life. Again, it just depends upon the theme that you chose to explore and whether or not the opportunity to change that timing is part of that theme. But that’s becoming more and more probable in the themes that you’re all exploring now.

Audience Member 1: Very good. And in this moment, every one of us is exploring a infinite number of other themes in the same second in time and just infinite things happening with infinite.

Bashar: Yes. But it depends upon what you mean by “us” because what you’re talking about is from the level of the oversoul that experiences all those things simultaneously, all those lives simultaneously. But in terms of you as a physical focused being, you only experience this life. Okay, cool.

Audience Member 1: So, animals are connected to source energy in the wild, correct?

Bashar: Of course, everything is. There is nothing that is not.

Audience Member 1: How is an animal able to get sick?

Bashar: It depends on the circumstance. An animal can reflect certain things and take on certain qualities that it may be reflecting to a human.

It may need to do that in order for the human to learn something. The animal itself may need to go through a certain experience for its own purposes. You have to again understand what’s going on in every specific situation.

Nervousness, Core Beliefs, and Reactivity

Audience Member 2: prior to be called I was feeling very excited. But the moment you said my name, right away I felt it this nervousness In my chest.

Bashar: So what is the fear? What are you afraid will happen? Um if you weren’t afraid something would happen, you wouldn’t be nervous, would you? Or are you confusing nervousness with excitement?

Audience Member 2: Why did I feel nervous.

Bashar: What are you afraid would have happened? Perhaps not knowing like what questions to ask?

Audience Member 2: Yes. I felt that if I forgot the questions or didn’t have any all these people like looking at me like hey you know he’s not asking a question or the right question or an exciting question.

Bashar: Well, that’s all right because on the positive note, you would have provided a lot of entertainment for everyone.

Audience Member 2: Yeah. And that’s a positive thing. I feel good now.

Well, better. So, so um what I what I wanted to know is um it seems like over the years, the more I get to know who I’m truly am, the more I get to know the authentic self, my empowerment self. Yes. the more I realize when I’m not being myself.

Bashar: That’s a positive thing. That’s the way the process goes. The more you are truly you, the easier it is to recognize when you’re not being truly you. That’s cause for excitement that you become more adept at telling the difference.

Audience Member 2: Well, the the thing with that though is these last couple days in this last couple weeks, I have been realizing that I’ve been choosing, in your words, non-preferred states, which I know you say it’s a positive thing, but I keep on choosing those non-prefering states over and over again.

Bashar: And you haven’t found the fundamental belief. Keep digging. You haven’t let go of the fundamental belief. If you keep doing the same things you don’t prefer to do, it means you haven’t found the fundamental belief on which you are basing those feelings, those thoughts, and those behaviors. Keep digging. It’s all about the process of finding it and letting it go. You don’t need to be anywhere else other than here and now and in the process of figuring out what the beliefs are that don’t serve you. You have nowhere else more important to be.

Bashar: Is there somewhere else you think you should be?

Audience Member 2: No. I’m I’m perfectly fine where I’m at right now.

Bashar: Then the idea is again if you recognize that you are feeling, thinking, and behaving in ways you don’t prefer and you keep doing the things you don’t prefer, all that tells you is you need to keep digging because you haven’t found the core belief, the core negative belief that is out of alignment with you that is generating those feelings, those thoughts and those behaviors because you do understand that behaviors and thoughts and feelings are all generated by beliefs.

Therefore, again, very simple. If you see yourself behaving in a way you don’t prefer, you must know that that’s your first clue. You have a belief you’re still holding on to because somehow you believe it serves you. Find out what that belief is. Identify it clearly. And as soon as it becomes nonsensical and illogical, it’s gone. As soon as any belief appears nonsensical, that’s not the beginning of the process of letting it go.

That’s the end of the process of letting it go. If you’re still doing the same things, you haven’t found the core belief. Please remember that beliefs are designed to perpetuate themselves in all the ways they can. And negative beliefs will use all sorts of negative tricks to do so. So a negative belief, a core belief may make you think you have found the core belief by surrounding itself with all sorts of secondary beliefs and is very happy for you to find the secondary belief and let it go and then sit there and hide and go, “well, he hasn’t found me yet. He thinks he has, but he hasn’t.” So you need to keep digging.

Audience Member 2: How do you dig? Like how do you keep on digging at that moment? So let’s say for instance you uh I’m I’m finding myself… So we’re talking about condition. There’s certain conditions at the at my house at my home that gets me irritated or annoyed or pissed off and I know that’s just my…

Bashar: Do you ask yourself why?

Audience Member 2: Because I don’t like I don’t like those conditions.

Bashar: No. No. No. Do you ask yourself why you are so invested in the conditions being a certain way? Do you understand that all circumstances are neutral and have no built-in meaning?

Audience Member 2: Sure.

Bashar: So if you understand that, why would you react to any circumstance at all? Why?

Audience Member 2: Well, because that’s the…

Bashar: Well, because that’s the fundamental question you need to be asking. If you know situations are neutral and don’t have meaning until you give them meaning and you find yourself reacting to a situation in a negative way. The question is, what would I have to believe is true about myself in this situation in order to feel the way I do?

Audience Member 2: Okay, that people are not caring or they’re being disrespectful or they’re not being thoughtful or…

Bashar: Right now again remember you you are the arbiter of how you experience life. So even if someone else chooses to be disrespectful or uncaring, why should that affect how you experience your life? Why are you basing what you prefer on what they think or do when they are not you? Why do you believe they have the power to make you feel in ways you don’t prefer to feel?

Audience Member 2: I don’t.

Bashar: You do or you wouldn’t be feeling those things.

Audience Member 2: Okay. So that’s that’s my question. Why? Knowing knowing that why do I still choose a speech?

Bashar: Because you don’t know it deep enough. It’s not real to you yet. It’s just an idea for you. Until you find the real core belief, it will always remain just an idea that you may comprehend, but you don’t deeply understand that to be true in your bones.

Audience Member 2: I like to share a a belief that could be close to the core belief or perhaps the belief itself. Like I I feel that if I do confront or express to these certain people what I’m feeling or what’s bugging me, that’s going to be an automatic fight or I’m going to be shouted out or argument and and so because I’m afraid of that, I don’t…

Bashar: Can you express yourself in a loving and straightforward way?

Audience Member 2: I know I can and I want to, but there’s a fear that it’s not going to be in a loving way.

Bashar: All right. But again, you’re still basing your truth on what you believe someone else will do instead of just being true to yourself.

Audience Member 2: Or perhaps what I’m going to do, I might get more pissed off. I might want to.

Bashar: But don’t you understand that the only reason you would do that is because you are holding on to a negative belief that you have to.

Audience Member 2: So I want to let it go.

Bashar: You’re the one that needs to change, not them. I know. So decide what you really prefer to be. Decide what beliefs you really prefer to have and allow those to guide you instead of just reinforcing the negativity you say you don’t prefer to experience from them by doing the negative energy yourself. So which just gives you more of what you say you don’t prefer.

Audience Member 2: So I prefer to just in a way kind of not not giving a like okay so who cares they did that just let it go it doesn’t really bug me yeah who cares but then I do care that’s the thing but that’s the issue again it comes back to the question why do you care and don’t just keep going around in circles saying well I care because I’m afraid they’re going to that’s just going in circles you haven’t answered the question why deeply enough you need to not be afraid to dig down deeper and find out what the belief is that is making you care what they think. That’s what you haven’t done.

Audience Member 2: Perhaps that’s what you need to do. Well, cuz I I want harmony. I want them to be happy. I want them…

Bashar: Maybe it’s because of pleasing. You choose to be happy. Never mind what anyone else chooses. It’s not your job. It’s none of your business what anyone else chooses to think about you or anything. How do you remain like calm, peace, and happy when someone else is being upset? I just told you how you need to understand what we’re saying and you don’t understand it yet. You remain calm because you choose to be. That’s what you prefer. If you don’t remain calm, it’s because you choose to believe that you shouldn’t remain calm. So, you have to ask yourself why you think that works for you when obviously it does not. Because if you still do that, some belief is telling you that that will work for you, but you can see that it doesn’t. So, you’re still buying into a negative belief. You haven’t let the negative belief go. And the letting go of the negative belief is how you remain calm. You understand?

Audience Member 2: I do. Is this helping?

Bashar: Yes.

Audience Member 2: Can you help me to dig deeper to find out what’s that core belief?

Bashar: Not tonight, but others will help you. You have your own guides, you know, but just remember what we’ve said. Let it sink in. And above and beyond anything and everything, relax. There’s no hurry. There’s no rush. Everything is fine. You’re going through your processes and that’s fine. You have nowhere else you need to be. But here and now with your process, no matter how you feel, it’s fine. Relax.

Audience Member 2: Yes. Yes. Are are those processes that’s enough.

Bashar: Yes. Are are those processes that’s enough. Thank you. All right. Thank you. Don’t worry, you’ll get it eventually.

Conversation 3: Marriage, Tithing, and Permission Slips

Audience Member 3 (Bajar): Hello, Bajar. And are you a good day?

Bashar: The last time I asked you a question, I spaced out. Didn’t hear anything you had to say.

Audience Member 3: So, that’s all right. I space out all the time. My intention is to really connect with you right now. And so what would you like to discuss? I’m curious. Do you have marriage on your planet?

Bashar: Not in the way you understand it as a ritual on yours. No. We allow relationships to be whatever they choose to be, whatever they turn out to be. It’s not really ritualized in that sense. If we are with one person for a certain amount of time, I suppose you could say that’s a marriage. But it could change. We won’t know what the relationship is until the relationship changes again. We won’t assume what it should be. We just let it be what it is. Okay? In that sense, you could say that everyone on our planet is married to everyone else. We’re all in one marriage that contains a number of different expressions of relationship.

Audience Member 3: Here on this planet, we uh have a license to get married. And Oh, yes. I’m well aware of the rituals that you have and it’s sanctioned by government. Do we when we are when we get a license and it’s sanctioned by government, do we tap into a vibrational frequency such as government? Does that make sense?

Bashar: You can create whatever vibrational state you prefer regardless of what anyone else says. If you want to use the ritual and the license and the relationship you may be forming with government to allow yourself to use it as a permission slip to allow you to give yourself permission to go into the state you prefer, then by all means you can do that. But if you stop and think about it, you could just go into that state anytime you really wanted to. Yes. Then it’s up to you to decide whether or not you need the permission slip.

Audience Member 3: Okay. No, that’s good. So um I have one more question.

Bashar: Yes.

Audience Member 3: The concept of tithing. Yes. I believe that it is around the idea that as you give so you shall receive.

Bashar: Well, it’s based on synchronicity and it’s based on what’s relevant for you to experience in the theme that you’re exploring. So everything that is relevant for you to experience will be experienced at exactly the correct time. Not before, not after, but in perfect timing for what serves you best. So when you give 10% of your income to a place that gives you spiritual nourishment, yes, my understanding is that the concept is that it comes back multiplied in a sense, but that’s not a concept of timing. Okay? That’s simply a way that you’re using a permission slip to expand yourself. That’s all. Okay. It’s up to you. You can use that technique as a permission slip. You can use other techniques as a permission slip. It depends on what you believe works for you.

Audience Member 3: I got it. Okay. Yes. Good. But the timing of when all of that happens. Yes. That’s the issue of timing. Good. Not what happens, but when when it happens.

Bashar: Okay. Good. Does that help?

Audience Member 3: It does. All right. Well, thank you. Thank you very much, Bashar.

Bashar: You are very welcome. [Applause]

Conversation 4: Dreams, Jewelry, and Inner Critic

Audience Member 4 (Andrew): Hi Bashar. Andrew. Good day. Uh, I have a question about a reoccurring dream that I have had since I was very little.

Bashar: Oh, how exciting. It’s very exciting. Um, speak up.

Audience Member 4: I remember my first flying dream. Yes. I was very young and it was a lesson of sorts. It was I was being trained to fly. Yes. And as I grew up, um it started out kind of being a difficult, you know, I’d have to like pump my legs and sort of swim and I could only get to a certain height. And as I’ve grown up, it’s become an easier thing for me to fly. All right. Um and so, so for the past it’s about learning to fly in a different way. Yes, it definitely has um morphed over time, but…

Bashar: Well, that’s the point. Otherwise, what would be the point of having a physical experience if you don’t ground yourself in it? Right. Right.

Audience Member 4: Right. So, for the past 10 years, I have had this um theme in my flying dreams where I run away. I’m always running away and it’s always a different situation, a different um person or a group of people or a a company or uh sometimes I’m with sometime.

Bashar: Is there something that you’re running away from in life?

Audience Member 4: Well, that’s my question is I’ve over 10 years my life has changed a lot. I I have moved. I’m now um closer to living the life I want to live than I’ve ever been. Uh and I’m still having these dreams and it’s very anxious. It makes me anxious.

Bashar: I’m, you know, it makes you anxious because why?

Audience Member 4: Um because I can’t it’s I’m trying to run away and I can’t ever really actually get away in in my dreams and it has there have been…

Bashar: And what do you think will happen if you don’t get away?

Audience Member 4: Um well I’ve never actually been caught.

Bashar: Well that’s a plus isn’t it?

Audience Member 4: Yes it is a plus.

Bashar: That’s So you are capable of outrunning any kind of negative experience aren’t you?

Audience Member 4: Yes. That’s a positive way to interpret the dream, isn’t it?

Bashar: Yes, indeed. Then why don’t you interpret it that way?

Audience Member 4: Well, I I can outrun anything that could possibly be negative. Anything that could possibly harm me, I can outrun it. It’ll never catch me. Isn’t that a positive way to define this?

Bashar: It is. Does it work for you to define it that way?

Audience Member 4: Yes. I suppose I haven’t really incorporated that belief into my aha waking.

Bashar: So can you now from this point forward?

Audience Member 4: I I can is that sufficient as an interpretation or do you need something more complicated?

Bashar: Uh no that’s I suppose that works. It is you suppose it does but you don’t feel that it does.

Audience Member 4: Well, I I um I will have to try experience my waking reality having that belief system and and um incorporating that and seeing if that does change my dreams.

Bashar: Oh my goodness, does it have to be that complicated? I will try to incorporate that idea into my waking reality and I will see if this experiment actually produces any results whatsoever. Which means I’m not buying it yet. Yeah. But that’s all right. If you feel like you need to go through the process, then by all means have fun doing so. Nevertheless, I guarantee that at the end of the process, you will come to the conclusion that I’m telling you now. Oh, why not just buy it? It’s much easier. It’s up to you. Not forcing you.

Audience Member 4: Okay. I can do that. It’s up to you. You don’t have to. Um, no. I would like to. So, my May I ask you a question?

Bashar: Yes.

Audience Member 4: If we were to chase you, would you let us catch you?

Bashar: Yes.

Audience Member 4: Are you sure?

Bashar: I am very sure. Then maybe the idea we have shared with you will actually stick and you won’t run away from it.

Audience Member 4: Okay. Thank you for that. Is that helping?

Bashar: That helps a lot. Anything else?

Audience Member 4: I do have another question.

Bashar: Yes.

Audience Member 4: I am a jeweler.

Bashar: That is a jeweler. That is my passion. How exciting. Very exciting.

Audience Member 4: All right. Is there a butt coming up? Um, no. I have a an idea for a type of jewelry line that I’ve created. Uh, find your frequency.

Bashar: And this is exciting. Very exciting. All right. And so, have you begun to do that?

Audience Member 4: I have. Yes, I have made one official pendant for a friend and it turned out very well.

Bashar: All right. So, these are statements of your excitement. They’re not questions.

Audience Member 4: Yes. Yes. Well, my question is um the idea of my this line is to create a formula for people to pick uh a a color, a shape, a symbol. Yes. And a stone. Yes. and for me to take that information and turn it into a piece that fits that person’s vibration.

Bashar: All right. Well, how creative, how exciting. Yes. Have fun.

Audience Member 4: So, I was wondering if um yes, you had any suggestions as to how I can…

Bashar: Why do I need to give you suggestions if this is representative of your own creativity and your own excitement? What do you need from me?

Audience Member 4: I thought you said you were doing it.

Bashar: I am. It’s just Then what do you think you need from me?

Audience Member 4: Maybe a permission slip. Maybe an idea.

Bashar: Um, a permission slip to do what? Other than what you’re already doing?

Audience Member 4: Well, I just want to be able to know that the design that I come up with. Do you want a permission slip from me? Yes or no?

Audience Member 4: Yes.

Bashar: Then I will give you this permission slip. Are you ready?

Audience Member 4: I’m ready.

Bashar: Are you sure?

Audience Member 4: Yes.

Bashar: Are you paying attention?

Audience Member 4: Very much so.

Bashar: Here’s the permission slip. Okay. You don’t need a permission slip.

Audience Member 4: Okay. Are you okay with that permission slip that you don’t need a permission slip?

Bashar: Yes, I’m has given you the permission slip that you don’t need a permission slip.

Audience Member 4: Okay, that’s it. That’s That’s good. I That’s it. I can deal with that.

Bashar: All right, have fun.

Audience Member 4: Thank you. Thank you.

Bashar: Now, while you are creating your fantastic creative jewelry, you can be doing that and say, “Bashar said I didn’t need a permission slip.” That’s my permission slip to keep going. Keep expanding cuz I don’t need any gosh darn stinking permission slip. That’s my permission slip.

Audience Member 5: Hi Bashar. Hi you. Good day. Um I’m so excited to be here and to talk to you as are we to talk to all of you. And my question well it’s a question uh regarding um my journey right now. I’ve been working on my self-empowerment. That’s my biggest desire to be fully empowered and stand in my power. But um I am struggling with my inner critic.

Bashar: You are struggling with what?

Audience Member 5: My inner critic. My inner voice that uh that I criticize and judge myself.

Bashar: All right. Well, what kind of a conversation are you having with that critic?

Audience Member 5: Well, it’s just the things that I want to accomplish and the things that I want to manifest. Uh there’s days where I am practicing self-love and I feel that I’m worthy but then there’s those days where I kind of start just criticizing myself.

Bashar: Is it because you are insisting on a particular outcome for what you’re doing or are you acting on your excitement for its own sake? Does the critic come in when you think that you have not measured up?

Audience Member 5: When I think I’m not good enough or worthy.

Bashar: You are not good enough. Good enough for what? To be yourself. Who else can be better at it? Right? So, how do I stop that? Notice how many people say, “Right, but just keep on going.” So, you’re the only one who can be you. So, you are good enough because no one else could possibly be as good at being you as you can.

Audience Member 5: So, how do I get that through my head?

Bashar: You want me to drive it through your head with a nail or something? Because what will it take? What will it take for you to believe it? Right. While I’m asking you, what will it take for you to believe that you’re good enough? You tell me. What will it take if I tap you on the shoulder? Is that good enough? If I punch you harder, is that good enough? If you get into an accident, is that good enough? What will it take?

Audience Member 5: That’s what I’m struggling. I don’t know. It’s just I just wanted to just know it and and own it.

Bashar: What is stopping you from knowing it? What idea, what belief is stopping you from just saying, “I know it.” You’re making a choice here. You’re making a decision here. Why are you choosing to not know something you could just decide to know is true? What’s stopping you from just saying it’s good enough that I just know it’s true that I’m good enough? What’s stopping you from just knowing that?

Audience Member 5: I guess because I doubt myself.

Bashar: And what is doubt?

Audience Member 5: I don’t believe in myself sometimes.

Bashar: Doubt is not a lack of belief. It’s a choice to believe in something that’s out of alignment with your true self. Doubt is not a lack of trust. It’s a 100% trust in something that’s out of alignment with what you prefer. So why are you choosing to put all your trust in something you don’t prefer instead of putting it in something you do prefer? Why? Why does that seem logical to you?

Audience Member 5: Yeah. So that’s why I wanted to stop. But I’m asking you a question that you’re not answering. Why does it seem logical to trust in something you don’t prefer about yourself instead of simply trusting in what you prefer to trust in? What’s stopping you from believing that trusting in yourself is just as powerful and will stick just as strongly as the fact that you will trust something you don’t prefer? Why are you making that distinction?

Bashar: It’s easier in your mind, in your beliefs, it’s easier to trust something you don’t prefer about yourself than it is to trust something you do prefer. Why? What’s the belief that says it’s easier to do that than this? Because they’re both the same level of trust. It’s 100% trust in something you don’t prefer about yourself. It’s 100% trust in something you do prefer to believe about yourself. It’s the same level, the same energy. What’s the difference? Why not this one instead of that one? Why are you making such a distinction between the two? As if trusting in something you don’t prefer is easier than trusting in something you do prefer. Right? So, I’m trying to break that pattern.

Bashar: It’s not a pattern. Watch your definitions. It’s a choice you’re making every moment. Remember, when you know it’s a pattern, it’s not a pattern anymore. A pattern is something you do you don’t know you’re doing. Right? So, if you know you’re doing it, it means you’re making a choice to do it. So the question would be why am I making a choice to do something I don’t prefer? And that comes down to what we just said. You have a belief that it is easier and more real to trust in something about yourself you don’t prefer than to believe in something about yourself that you do. Why are you holding on to the belief that that’s easier than this? That that’s more real than this? That more true than this? Why? How does it serve you to hold on to a negative image of yourself? How does it serve you? Because you wouldn’t hold on to it if it didn’t serve you. If you didn’t believe that it served you.

Audience Member 5: I guess it keeps me in the same place.

Bashar: And is it scary to leave that place? Is it scary to be yourself? Are you afraid that if you are your true self and you act on your highest passion that something bad will happen? What are you afraid of?

Audience Member 5: I guess so. Yes. That um something bad’s going to happen.

Bashar: Well, why do you choose to believe that?

Audience Member 5: I don’t know.

Bashar: Sure you do. Come on. Why do you choose to believe that if you’re living your excitement that something bad can happen? Do you want me to tell you why?

Audience Member 5: Yes.

Bashar: Because you have a definition that isn’t a definition of excitement. You have a different kind of definition and that’s not a definition of excitement. If you had an actual definition of excitement, you would understand that a real definition of excitement can’t possibly contain anything that would be out of alignment with that excitement. So even if as we said earlier even if something crops up that you don’t prefer that can just be a neutral observation. It doesn’t have to affect you negatively. Only when you decide that it can affect you will you feel the effect. But if you remain neutral with whatever happens even if it’s what you don’t prefer then you can go into a positive state about it and get a beneficial effect no matter what it is. So there’s no reason to be afraid of any circumstance that could crop up because you by staying in the positive state and trusting that you are good enough and worthy enough and deserving enough will know that you will always get a beneficial effect no matter what crops up because you will just remain neutral to it and observe the negative thing neutrally and that will be the choice that you make and that will be a true definition of staying in your excitement. To say I am following my excitement but something bad could happen is not a definition of excitement. It’s a different definition of a different experience altogether. So you have to be clear about your definitions and understand when you are contradicting yourself in those definitions.

Audience Member 5: Yes. Yes. Is this helping?

Bashar: Yes. Thank you. Thank you. [Applause] Knowing yourself takes great clarity. You have to be very clear of the story that you’re telling yourself, the definitions you’re buying into. Sometimes without even knowing that you’re doing it. One very strong way is to just pay attention to what comes out of your mouth. Because very often you will tell yourself exactly what your definitions are by the way you frame things. Just listen and you’ll hear the negativity in the words that you choose.

Conversation 6: Safety, Family, and Orion Connections

Audience Member 6: Hi Bishar. How are you?

Bashar: Good day.

Audience Member 6: Um, I am very excited to be here.

Bashar: We are very excited that you are there.

Audience Member 6: For starters, I’d just like to say uh that Daryl’s work and his partnership with you has created lots of expansion in my life.

Bashar: We are happy to be a permission slip for any and all of you. Thank you.

Audience Member 6: Recently, I got in touch with a core belief that has created a domino effect in my life.

Bashar: Dominoes are fun. Well, uh I What is this core belief you have discovered?

Audience Member 6: The core belief is I choose safety to stay out of harm’s way.

Bashar: Because you believe that there is such a thing as harm’s way. Yes. Do you understand that not being yourself is the most harmful thing you can do?

Audience Member 6: Yes.

Bashar: Well, then you are in harm’s way if you’re not being yourself. Yes. So, if you don’t want to be in harm’s way, be yourself. Follow your excitement. Correct. That’s the safest thing you can actually do.

Audience Member 6: Yes. So, so I’ve been holding on to that belief uh unconsciously in some sense for over 31 years.

Bashar: That’s all right. But now it’s conscious.

Audience Member 6: Yes. Yes.

Bashar: So, is it gone? Uh, or does it still make sense to you to hold on to it?

Audience Member 6: I It doesn’t make sense in the sense that I’m going to explain it and maybe you can clarify. All right. Um, my family has become almost absent because of this belief.

Bashar: Yes. You mean they have removed themselves from your life physically?

Audience Member 6: Yes.

Bashar: All right. And so what um I’m not sure how to process um how I’m supposed to respond to that with unconditional love. Allowing them to choose what they prefer while they in a sense let you be who you are by moving away. I love them and unconditionally though. Yeah, I just miss them.

Bashar: But you are connected. And in fact, if you are not experiencing them in their truest form, you’re not missing them, you’re missing who they think they need to be. Do you understand?

Audience Member 6: No.

Bashar: If they are not vibrationally compatible with you and they move away because of that vibrational incompatibility, it’s not the real them you’re missing.

Audience Member 6: I see. Because they’re not being who they really are anyway with you in the relationship. It’s sad.

Bashar: Because why is that sad?

Audience Member 6: Well, because I’ve had um an amazing experience up until I’ve brought light to that belief.

Bashar: And you can have more amazing experiences. They just may look different. And who knows what they will decide to do in the future. Correct? But unless you are willing to keep being yourself and showing them who you actually are, you’re not giving them an opportunity to decide whether or not to change themselves to become more vibrationally compatible with you. Correct? Well, therefore, why would you prolong their ability to make that option by not going into the state that you really prefer to be in? Why would you do that to them?

Audience Member 6: I think it’s when I begin to miss them. I feel like, but what you’re saying is you’re missing yourself.

Bashar: You’re missing your true self. Yes. And that is that is really um what this is coming down to. Uh is the the bigger part is um long story short uh when I was a kid um I would it sounds like a long story.

Bashar: Yeah, I knew you’d say that.

Audience Member 6: Um I was an embryo.

Bashar: Why?

Audience Member 6: And then the next day, this is the best day ever. Um, so I chose safety to stay out of harm’s way. When I was a kid, I didn’t know anything about um being straight or being gay. Yes. I just went towards the path of least resistance. Yes. Where um people didn’t want to beat me up because of how I looked or how I dressed.

Bashar: I understand. But who cares what they think, right? No longer do I. All right then. But now uh just because it has become your family that makes a difference. Say that again. Just because now the people are your family, does that make a difference? What people? You have said that at a certain point you didn’t care what other people thought. But you’re saying that because it’s your family that’s thinking that way that that makes a difference for you.

Audience Member 6: No, no, it does not. It’s It’s just I met someone very special to me. Yes. During a time where I used to be that me where I thought that I was gay and and now this me today. Yes. Um doesn’t really see myself as gay or straight.

Bashar: Are you saying you’re bisexual?

Audience Member 6: I don’t know. I just know that it’s all right to not know. I I just know that I love this person a lot.

Bashar: All right. And what does this person feel about that? Or do they know?

Audience Member 6: They do know. Yeah, they’re they’re here today.

Bashar: And what’s their response to that?

Audience Member 6: Uh very allowing uh patient and um understanding.

Bashar: All right. Well, it doesn’t really sound like you’re describing any kind of a negative issue, right?

Audience Member 6: Yeah.

Bashar: Why are we having this conversation?

Audience Member 6: Clarity. Clarity. clarity about something that you seem to be clear about, right?

Bashar: Well, then so um so yes, um is there something hidden in here that’s not coming to the surface?

Audience Member 6: Well, um that was you know what um what what what triggered this?

Bashar: Yes. What triggered that belief?

Audience Member 6: And what triggered that belief was something that had um happened to my partner. Um that is surrounded by a lot of fear uh in our society. Um Yes. And it made me think it triggered uh the thought of wow I better be me now.

Bashar: All right. So you used it taken away from me. You used it in a positive way. Yes. All right. And so again, you’re doing what you need to do for yourself in the proper way. Yes. Or no.

Audience Member 6: Yeah. I I I think so. I think so.

Bashar: You think so?

Audience Member 6: Yeah.

Bashar: Do you know so?

Audience Member 6: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Bashar: All right. I mean, I Yeah, I do. Well, then nice chatting with you.

Audience Member 6: Yeah. I I’m just going to move on from that and uh ask uh what uh two more questions. They’re short, small ones, maybe.

Bashar: Okay.

Audience Member 6: Um, in when I was a sparkle in my father’s eye, so so um around July 2012. Yes. Around 11:00 p.m. Yes. I was outside and I had an experience. I had an encounter with a craft up in the sky. And so, and I was wondering if you can give me an information on that.

Bashar: I will give you information on that. if you will give me information in return.

Audience Member 6: Okay, I promise I will ask my question first and then answer yours if you can answer mine.

Bashar: Okay. There is an airport several miles from here. There is a plane taking off now with several people on board. Where is it going? Who’s on board?

Audience Member 6: Could be anywhere. Going anywhere. Where is it going? Where’s that plane that’s taking off right now going and who’s on board? Can you answer these questions? It’s going to another airport specific. I don’t know.

Bashar: So, what makes you think I know every being in every craft that’s flying around your planet?

Audience Member 6: Uh, well, um, I’ve I’ve uh observed you for a long time and you seem to have been able to answer for others sometimes. So I just thought maybe you could answer it for right now.

Bashar: What we can say is what did you experience by having that encounter?

Audience Member 6: The first information I got was um there there’s no need to fear.

Bashar: All right. Then keep it that simple in every facet of your life. That’s what you need to take away from that encounter and apply in every circumstance in your life. And that’s what the encounter was for.

Audience Member 6: Okay. Yes. Yes. Does that help?

Bashar: Yes, it does. All right. And the last question is um I was uh in the second grade I was invited into my…

Bashar: Well, at least we’ve moved a little farther along in your life.

Audience Member 6: I was invited into my friend’s house and um I began to smell a very sweet bubblegum-like fragrance and I followed it curiously and I felt this um like this this this wave go through me and I remember falling to the floor. Yes. And getting up and just sort of not understanding and I actually didn’t even tell my friend that I was leaving. I just ran home. All right. In disbelief. Um I was wondering if you can give some insight.

Bashar: Thank you for those two questions. And in a sense, the answer to both questions is the same. Okay? Which is why you needed to ask both of them first. And the answer to the question of what you call the craft and the answer to the question of the energy you felt is both were your future self. Shivai.
