Magical Perceptions – Language, Gods & Magic – Part 1

May 28, 2006

Channeled by Serge J. Grandbois and Transcribed by Ellen Gilbert (Kwaa’Ji)
Recorded in Toronto, Canada on May 28, 2006

Roll Call: Serge (Joseph), Mark (Philip), John (Sohars), Myrna (Shara-Leene), Michelle, Andrea (Jarasen), and Lida (Miriam)

[MARK'S NOTES: During a walk AFTER this session I discovered that this session was NOT delivered by Kris, but moreso, by more of the BRAHM energies, which is the Source of Kris' Being. In the future we will refer to any transcripts by this Entity as Brahm.]

(7:46 PM)

KRIS: Now we trust that you are all very comfortable and we thank you for your kind considerations. Over the last few years and the last few months specifically, we have made mention of one thing or another and hopefully many of these SEEDS will now be able to be a fruit. So we wish to bring many of these subjects TOGETHER, perhaps over these next few weeks, just as we have done with the “Secrets of the Ancients” session, which may be continued over the next few weeks.

This particular set of evenings will definitely cross over into the “Secrets of the Ancients” material, as that material may cross over into these discussions, each flowing independently and yet, delicately interlaced, providing many other additional connections. And we do hope that as much as possible, you can follow these discussions over the several evenings they may unfold. So we entitle this set of evenings as “LANGUAGE, GODS, AND MAGIC.”

And indeed, that intuitive insight into magical perceptions is fitting, as it is more or less a requirement. This material is in line with previously discussed subjects concerning or accessing your many minds. Now does that make sense?

MARK: Yes, it does.

KRIS: You are all very accustomed to a set definition of LANGUAGE. Is it possible to get a dictionary definition?

MARK: One moment. (Mark goes for a dictionary) “Language: the words, their pronunciation, and the method of combining them used and understood by a considerable community; audible, articulate, meaningful sounds as produced by the actions of vocal organs; a systematic means of communicating ideas or feelings by the use of conventional signs, sounds, gestures or marks having understood meanings; the suggestion by an object, action, or condition of associated ideas or feelings.” Is that enough?

KRIS: Indeed. Now to most people language is merely a means of communication. It makes allowances for conveying thoughts, feelings, ideas, emotions, sentiments, and so on and so forth, and as the dictionary described, there are indeed many conventional means to display languages, even those you do not understand because you have not been trained in them, though your own language automatically presupposes the construction of ALL languages by the mere fact that it is.

Language also has to be understood as being an interpretation of yet other ideas, concepts, feelings, sentiments and so on and so forth. And by its very nature, any specific language exists not by specifically what composes it as much by what does NOT compose it, or is not part of its system. And you define again, even on a narrower spectrum very specific rules and regulations to ANY given language, and you do that to exclude what you define as not being part of your language, as well as what composes those words, verbs, adjectives, and so on and so forth, that actually composes the recipe for YOUR language. Does that make sense to you?

MARK: Mind you, those rules are in the process of being broken.

KRIS: Indeed, but they still follow certain syntactical guidelines. And by those very rules and regulations, any language is as much about a form of, or we should say, an ARTFUL form of expression as it is about an artful form of censorship, AUTOMATICALLY! The two go hand-in-hand. Thus, language, whilst it assists in the conveying of ideas and concepts and so on, ALSO is an automatic response of structuring and thus eliminating what does not fit the descriptions of the language, whatever that language happens to be. Does that also make sense?

(Yes)

KRIS: This is important to grasp because the usage of words to convey expressions to communicate those expressions naturally narrows the field of those very communications and expressions and creates a conundrum. And everything that does not happen to fit into the preconceived notions of your specific language is automatically held back, censored, and removed from the complement of the symbolism utilized to create your interpretations and communications. Thus as much as a language, any language, seeks to become an artful expression, it also implies a restriction upon that very artful expression it seeks to communicate. Do you still follow this?

(Yes)

And as any language seeks to refine itself, hones its propensity to communicate and thus goes through various progressive changes, it often loses touch with a broader spectrum of innate qualities, sometimes for the mere sake of rendering the communication in a more direct and thus faster manner. And this is sometimes viewed as “progress” quote unquote, though at times it could be regressive as well, losing and abandoning a much wider spectrum of ideologies that can make up any given base of a language.

At the same time, by paying attention to how you formulate ideas and thoughts and expressions at any level, you can notice how the inner events that become the root stock of languages are also often relegated to the shadows because it might not fit into the preconceived conventions that are often allowed as well as those that are not allowed as part of the package of your communicated expressions.

So language in itself, a beautiful creation serving to refine and enhance artful inner expressions can sometimes also become a trap of sorts in many different ways and by learning to notice how you structure and formulate the very nature of your inner communications, you might be tempted to actually censor part of your own innate expressions because it may not fit into the prerequisites pertaining language structures and syntax and so on and so forth.

And we bring this up specifically because when such processes go unchecked the individual more than enough loses touch with the very foundations upon which language, linguistic structures and syntax are built. And thus loses touch with the deeper nature of his or her Being, themselves, those natures, the very spring from which the rich creative principles of human expression are given birth, those innate streams of consciousness, [that] you may often refer to as the unofficial line of consciousness, is further blocked out by the official, conventional lines of consciousness, further separating the individual from his or her Being, from the ground of his or her Being, creating an artificial schism that eventually can become difficult to reconcile.

Thus, learning to pay attention to how you structure your experiences, even subjective experiences to conform to the contours and the shapes of language itself can teach you a great deal about your nature and how you use those conventions to both recognize and simultaneously ignore reality, ALL of reality, yours specifically. We made an attempt last week to bring this to light in a very gentle manner with a guided visualization leading back to an ancient time, and many people reported inner events, some quite in detail, all marvelous and creative, but all with a certain prejudiced perceptions, making an assumption that something ancient might also be somewhat primitive compared to your modern times. Somewhat less evolved intellectually and emotionally.

And we did try to point this out and we are again pointing it out: that you have formulated your ideas along the modern interpretation, thinking that if something is not modern as you have it in your society, then there is obviously a lack of development in older societies. And we did try to point out that in many areas some of these ancient cultures were as much and sometimes even more sophisticated than your own.

We did try to point out that your culture and civilization was not the first to invent x-rays. They were in use by the ancient Egyptians and ancient Chinese. Obsidian knives, utilized by the Mayans, even for such things as brain surgery, even so many centuries before your invention of the scalpel and laser, allowed the performance of brain surgery on individuals to not only survive, but prosper. And still obsidian blade is sharper than any of your stainless steel scalpels, even those used many centuries ago.

We pointed out that electricity was used even a few thousand years before your recognition of it and many other areas. This only to indicate that you have a bias towards the language and the structure that you use and things, whether inner events or outer events that do not conform to those rules and regulations that belong to the conventions are usually ignored, denied, censored, blocked off, etc.

And as such, you have made yourselves unaware of many other kinds of languages. We are not speaking here of ancient Chinese or modern Cantonese or ancient Acadian or Swahili and so on and so forth. We are talking of completely different kinds of languages. There are biological languages such as the cellular language that you interpret as your physical forms, that physical form, those physical forms that you cherish and recognize as essential for your well-being and participation within physical reality.

Those beautiful physical forms are incredibly complex compositions of a biological language, a symphony of biological languages, coming together to formulate all of the components that are so integral for you to be who you are, physically speaking. That is an interpretation, that body that is yours and at the same time it follows a type of convention all its own. In the sense that you know your body is not also a tree, or a banana. You automatically exclude very specific biological syntax in order to arrive at the unique, bio-physical language that is your body. Does that make sense?

(Yes)

Now, on the one hand, you exercise very distinct and beautiful interpretive discrimination and it is most important because this discrimination, apart from the usual negative connotations attached to the word, this type of discrimination allows you to maintain your uniqueness, both from other unique individuals as well as other forms of life. Thus you know for instance, that you are not a tree stump, nor a car. You are who you know yourself to be, but do you truly know yourself to be who you are outside of that translative language that you utilize to express who you are.

Thus, this is an area that can provide you with powerful, acute, and meaningful alternative interpretations and perceptions about the very nature of your being, about and apart from any pre-conceived notions you may entertain as to what you think you know about yourself. Does this make sense?

(Yes)

Now what is the time?

MYRNA: A quarter after eight.

KRIS: Indeed, we suggest a very small break so that you can gather your language.

(Break Begins at 8:15 PM.)

[MARK'S NOTES: The first part of the break was not recorded, because we were indulging ourselves on Serge's wonderful Birthday cake. As we were finishing up our morsels of hazelnut almond chocolate delight, a conversation on the session so far began to form. I realized that the recorder was still off and quickly turned it back on, but as Ellen points out, some of it was missed. ]

[ELLEN'S NOTES: First part of discussion during break is mostly inaudible, but Lida refers to communication among the cells in the body. Mark offers that the body as a whole depends upon communication between the organs, but that even the molecules that make up the organs need to communicate.]

MARK: How does heart tissue know its heart tissue? How does lung tissue know its lung tissue? And its purpose and function and so on is part of communication within the whole, throughout the whole.

ANDREA: And if something is not working, those cells are screaming. But [scientists] have also taken some cells away from a person and observed what’s happening in that person, and those cells were reflecting what was happening in the body, and yet they were separated.

[Serge tells a similar story about how baby rabbits were separated from their mother, placed in a submarine halfway around the planet and scientists observed that the mother rabbit experienced distress each time the baby rabbits went through distressful situations. Mark offers that it is often reported that human mothers experience the same thing.]

JOHN: I think that what [Kris] is suggesting is that we normally pass that stuff off because it doesn’t fit into our normal linguistic….to me he seems to be suggesting that we use language as a way to interpret reality in a way, and that, the structures of language — while they are very powerful of course — they also have to have a certain kind of limitation. In other words, the way I often explain it is: in order to say one thing, you have to NOT say everything else. (Chuckles)

MARK: It also becomes very difficult, for instance, I could be talking on the phone to somebody and try to explain this beautiful red couch. If I say “beautiful red couch” to somebody in another part of the world, do you think they could picture it? They could picture A red couch but I can’t possibly use words to describe the couch so that somebody who has never seen it knows EXACTLY what it looks like. There are limitations.

ANDREA: Well, you can describe it in more detail, right?

MARK: Yeah, I can, but still nobody is going to really be able to….well…a dream, okay? One of the major reasons people don’t write their dreams down is because it’s frustrating when they can’t get all the details in there because words don’t do it justice. And I think that’s what he’s talking about: the greater part of self doesn’t use language. Everything is communicated at the speed of thought and concepts. Words aren’t used. So, in a dream, these communications as we see them, the images in our dreams AREN’T the dream!

JOHN: Yes.

MARK: They’re OUR interpretations of the dream, so because we’re human and on a planet, we’ll interpret them by…

ANDREA: … We already filter them by our…

MARK: We filter them through our belief filters and if I’m a Martian having the same dream, I’m going to filter it through my [Martian] belief structures and …

MICHELLE: There’s also a feeling language. You can say something to someone, or not say it, and if you’re angry at someone and you’re not speaking it, they’ll [still] get it [that you're angry].

MARK: Yeah, sometimes it’s what’s NOT said that hurts the most.

JOHN: In a way, it seems to me that he’s suggesting that language can be thought as similar to beliefs in the sense that you’re not going to get to a point where you don’t use language — the same way that you’re not going to throw away a belief — BUT you can understand that the use of language cuts out as much as it includes, and that there’s stuff above and below that that’s not limited by the language.

MYRNA: I’m also aware lately of trying to have a conversation with Shara-Leene and feeling very limited in it.

JOHN: Not knowing the language maybe. Is that what you’re saying?

MYRNA: I don’t know if it’s that…I just know that it doesn’t go very far….you know, it goes far in an intuitive place, but it does not go far in a language place.

JOHN: Shara-Leene may be???? [John makes an apparently very funny joke here, but it is inaudible.]

(Riotous laughter)

MARK: But I think that in understanding or realizing that we do censor our use of language that we don’t get the full interpretation….or, it IS an interpretation. It’s not the full-blown thing and once you realize that you can start to look deeper in dreams. But even in the book that we’re working on, on dreams, one of the conversations that we’ve had is, yes, the images, the dramas and all that of a dream, the storylines, are just INTERPRETATIONS and that there are underlying layers, not just one layer, but multiple, endless layers of communications and emotions, emotional attachments and LIVING emotions, DYNAMIC living emotions. So once you start going there and thinking outside the boxes, moving into the different layers…

JOHN: And never mind when you’re doing that kind of exploration that you don’t quite understand it glyphically, just kind of float around in there and never mind about a linguistic aspect to it.

MARK: Yeah, right.

[There is a short discussion about the intuitive nature of children and also pets and how they communicate, as well as their abilities to sense the impending arrival of their owners, and Kris returns.]

(8:37 PM)

KRIS: [Turning to Mark] Now YOUR later observation concerning our discussion are more in line with our intent. Do you understand?

MARK: Talking about the layers underneath?

KRIS: Indeed, your human languages function both by allowing and disallowing a wide spectrum of subject matters. Does that make sense to you?

(Yes)

That is only the beginning of the show, so to speak. You are accustomed to stringing out your own thoughts as audible words similar to the manner in which you string out your language and that also provides both an exploration AND a censorship simultaneously, making it so that even the very nature of your thoughts is subject to the same conventions, which means that for every thing that you allow into your own mental spheres, you disallow as much or even more information that does not conform to the conventions. Does that make sense?

(Yes)

And you also work along the same lines of your own subjective states that you often express as feelings, sentiments, emotions, etc. And it is said that your verbal language, your thoughts, your dreams, your impressions, your intuitions, your emotions, your feelings, etc. are ALL communications. Very well then, why stop there? If they are a communication, then it means that there is another kind of language at work, correct?

(Yes)

It is a fine thing to parrot information that has been gathered here and there, but a deeper exploration is warranted. Thus, if all of those descriptives, including your physical forms and your physical reality, are communications, then they are, obviously, in that line of logic, the result of a language obviously different from the language that you learned from your childhood, your educational systems, and so on. Does that make sense to you?

(Yes)

Those languages are themselves subject to your censoring processes as you move towards the nature of your conscious perceptions and minds and ego construction. Thus there are many different layers of translations and interpretations to these communications. We are addressing this because the language, or even languages themselves that are the source of all these communications, are non-linear, non-rational, and therefore sometimes seen even as a kind of threat, but very rarely do individuals venture beyond the fences they have so nicely erected around the parameters of their conventionalities. Does this make sense?

(Yes)

What kind of Munchkin land territory exists in those areas? What kind of reality is there possibly waiting to be discovered? Perhaps in some of you there is another kind of Columbus, waiting to sail the high seas to discover new lands of the psyche, new continents of the soul, do you not think?

JOHN: Yeah, I think so.

MYRNA: I love the idea.

KRIS: And hopefully you will not take any of the inhabitants of those lands into slavery.

JOHN: We just want their gold.

(Laughter)

KRIS: All kidding aside, there is much more to be discovered, and we hope to give some assistance along those lines. And knowing that you structure your experiences even, in line with those conventions, can be extremely helpful in discerning what you are doing at those other layers. And we are not here suggesting that these languages are like beliefs, but they will follow the contours of your beliefs. That is how you structure your physical reality, correct?

(Yes)

If you also investigate even your assumptions about your greater nature, even when you may profess disbelief in any kind of organized religions and their definitions of a divine Being, you may be able to determine that you may still be defining your own greater nature along those very definitions, incorporating even many layers of those definitions into your repertoire.

And this may even prevent you from examining that greater nature that is also yours, because it is unknowingly covered over and camouflaged by a type of discriminatory language structures, biased in certain directions, and prevents you from fully exploring that greater nature that is yours. And you do attach very many different kinds of significances towards the languages of religious natures, furthering hampering your own ability to recognize who and what you are, even when you function on the assumption that you might NOT be participating in those interpretations. By the very nature of your language structures, you still operate within those belief systems. Do you follow?

(Yes)

Let this simmer in your minds for awhile and see what conclusions you draw from it. Your own languages over these past centuries have also narrowed many different kinds of fields and presently have become top-heavy with one particular perspective over many others, outweighing even the many other perspectives. And in this we are addressing then, your scientific languages and perspectives.

And this is indeed a tricky subject, because on the one hand, scientific linguistic structures as well as arguments and philosophies and perspectives are often used and described to demystify and UN-magic reality, make reality non-magical, make reality little more than the functions of neuro-chemicals and peptides and proteins and strip it of all of its magical aspects. Prove that the world is nothing but dirt and dust, has no substance and ultimately is dead-ended. There is nothing of value in its ultimate end. Does that make sense to you as well?

MARK: Unfortunately.

JOHN: Yeah.

KRIS: Indeed and such perspectives are often utilized, ironically enough because many scientific minds themselves might be AFRAID that physical reality and nature might ultimately BE magical and the result OF magical processes. And many scientifics might ultimately believe that there is a type of magical atmosphere to nature and reality, but it does not fit in with that world view, with those conventions, so a language is erected to try and communicate that disbelieving a magical perspective of reality is sound and logical and in your best interests! And unfortunately, we disagree!

(Chuckling)

On all counts! As the Roman emperor is wont to do, either thumbs up or thumbs down and for as much as we do respect scientific investigation; its ultimate end, we must give it a thumbs down. [Gesturing thumbs down]

(Laughter)

Especially when in many ways the scientific investigation is to try and prove that reality and existence itself is futile at best, therefore do not venture anywhere, because ultimately in ten billion years, the sun will go super-nova and wipe you all out! So why have hope? Do you understand?

(Yes)

And unfortunately because such perspectives are so strongly rooted in your modern language, it is often difficult for the average individual to recognize their non-average individuality. And the magical, purposeful sense of their existence and the magic language of their Being and the magic of THAT language of their Being communicates. You talk of communications such as dreams and thoughts and emotions and impressions and feelings as being communications, which implies the language which ITSELF is magical, because the magical language of that layer of being is further translated into what you see through your physical senses as the physical world displayed before you.

But because your own language barriers and barricades prevent you, you do not yet see that you might for instance also be the tree, the Earth, the moon, the birds and the butterflies as well as yourself. And of late, you hear things like, “deliberate creation,” “conscious creation,” “mindful creation,” and so on and so forth. And many people are willing to explore the concept, but when it is already explored based upon prejudiced perceptions, then indeed the rate of success may be interesting but still be average. Does this make sense to you?

(Yes)

If you work on an equation, but your foundational numbers are somewhat flawed, then eventually your edifice numbers will collapse. Does this make sense?

(Yes)

We are not saying that what is popular is wrong, but we are saying that it is still superficial. We are saying that many who get on the conscious creation bandwagon hope that since they are unhappy they will create large amounts of finances in order to become happy. They will create the perfect partner in order to become happy. They will create the perfect job or business in order to become happy. And yes, they may attain partial successes but we are ALSO saying that since you began from a state of unhappiness, you will quickly spend your abundant finances. You will ruin your relationships…

(Laughter)

… You will be fired from your job, and you will lose your business! Does that make sense?

(Yes)

Indeed! Because none of these things can make you happy, because at the core you are already unhappy and that unhappiness cannot be masked or painted over regardless of how many pretty colors of paint you put over it, it will eventually blister the paint and come through as a boil of sorts. Do you follow?

(Laughing. Yes)

Now then, what we are suggesting with our original title of there being magic involved, is that indeed, like any good sorcerer, or sorceress, or enchantress, anyone working with magic of sorts has a recipe.

MYRNA: Great!

KRIS: That does not mean we will give you the recipe tonight!

(Laughter)

But it does mean that in a way, you bake a cake as was so lovingly done tonight. You need ingredients, correct?

MYRNA: Is this a “stay tuned”?

KRIS: It may definitely be! Now, (Pause) from our perspective and this IS a critique on prevalent and popular or should we more adequately say “pop” conscious creation practices, is that….we will give three distinct terms. The magic involved is slightly divorced from the source of that magic, therefore ultimately will lead to difficulties and low rates of success primarily because that kind of magic, conscious creation magic in the pop world, focuses on what we will call “MACRO-MAGIC”, an immediate desire to project onto the physical world the BIG magical things: big money, big car, big house, big partner, big love life, big job, etcetera etcetera; whilst in truth, the work needs to be done inside.

And it is not sufficient to say, “But yes, they do use their imagination,” it is still focused outwardly. Thus we will call the primary essence of magic as “MICRO-MAGIC.” And then there is a third magic. There is “META-MAGIC.” So we are all dealing with a whole bunch of M&M’s here!

(Laughter)

KRIS: That latter one: Meta-Magic, is a perspective that makes ALLOWANCES for magical, even miraculous creations. It is one of the many minds that you CAN have access to and it is one that actually incorporates the belief concept of physical reality. It is an idea atmosphere. Does that make sense to you?

JOHN: Yes, I think so.

MYRNA: I understand the link, but I don’t understand…..there’s language being used here, but do I get it? No.

KRIS: Now, the physical reality that you express your Being in, is based upon the assumptions in this modern world based upon the assumption that scientific inquiry and investigation and experimentation answers all questions and provides you with the answers that you need, and anything outside of that field is considered inconsequential, of NO importance! WE are of the not-so-humble opinion that your answers are not found within the convention, within the box, but OUTSIDE of that box; even several boxes removed, one of them also being language. The box is what? Four sides, top and bottom, correct?

(Yes)

The box is meant to hold something, but it is also meant to prevent anything else from entering, like language.

MICHELLE: (Inaudible question)

KRIS: To a certain degree indeed. You have very specific mental structures that you work with. For an example, when you read a book in your modern western world, especially in North America, you are taught to read one page after the other, usually you are taught to read from left to right, left to right, left to right, correct?

(Yes)

Yet there are cultures in your world that read right to left, right to left, right to left. And then there are still other cultures that are taught to read differently. They are taught to read up and down, up and down, up and down. So you have three different perspectives in this area, each one excludes the other of course, because then you would read something and become very confused, if it would even be readable, especially if it was in a language that was not your native language, correct?

(Yes)

But what if there were OTHER ways to read? Such as diagonally or even by picking up every other word, or every third letter of each word, and creating a completely different experience?

(Pause)

What is the time?

MARK: 9:10.

KRIS: Indeed then, what we are suggesting to your lovely selves, your lovely magical selves, is for a week or two, to experiment with the limitations of your structures in any manner you wish. For example, physically you know yourself as one individual, as yourself, as yourself, and so on, and you thereby assume that you know what you are not. So we are suggesting that you juggle some of those definitions, tweak them ever so lightly.

For example, how do you know that a part of you may actually not be, or be, the tree that is near your home? Or is it possible that a portion of who and what you are is also experiencing tree, and how would that possibly add to the language of your Being, and thus, add to the definition of who and what you are. You also make a very clear distinction between who and what you are and your dream self. But what if the apparently distinct separateness is not as distinct or separate as you’ve assumed? Does this make sense?

(Yes)

Any questions?

JOHN: I can’t think of any, really. Except I want the recipe now, of course!

(Laughter)

MYRNA: Me too.

KRIS: Indeed. To momentarily go back to our description of Meta-Magic, Micro-Magic and Macro-Magic, we would in the next few sessions enjoy expanding the idea of Micro-Magic and perhaps provide resources and ways to work at it from THAT perspective which would naturally flow toward macro-magic but would not be, the Macro-Magic not be, the only venue available.

MYRNA: I’m reminded when you said that at core we are all unhappy. I’m reminded of something you said at “Heal the Broken Heart.” I don’t know….somewhere in the same ballpark….but that we hide our hearts….we hide our love behind the wounds in our hearts. Is our unhappiness that you speak about now, related to that?

KRIS: It is indeed, simply because even though many people appear to be happy, there is still an innate yearning for that deeper connection that goes beyond sensory perceptions. Not every single individual on your planet fits in this category, but the majority do. And it is not that because you ARE physical Beings that you are automatically unhappy, but when it has been ingrained into you, even from before birth, that you are somehow or other divorced, separate from the Source of your being, then there are many attempts throughout one’s life to dig for this reconnection. Do you follow?

MYRNA: Yes!

KRIS: And when the entire social convention is set up AGAINST that connection, except on very specific terms according to a third party who sets itself up as an authority, that you must do as the third party says, then you still have further divisions. Does that make sense? So we are proposing that you do get in touch with this magical self, this magical perspective and we wish to discuss it further in other evenings. [To Mark:] Therefore, do you wish to ask YOUR question?

MARK: Do I have a question?

KRIS: Or anyone.

JOHN: I have a quick question, Kris. I did the experiment where you’re sitting on the amazingly comfortable chair and you’re looking at the video screen and various scenes, scenarios from your life, do you recall that exercise?

[John is referring to a recent guided meditation Kris designed for Brian Ferrell.]

KRIS: Indeed.

JOHN: Would that fall into the category of Micro-Magic?

KRIS: Indeed.

JOHN: I thought so. Thank you.

KRIS: Therefore we will leave you to figure out where within you is the magician and the magic.

MYRNA: Do the Sisters fall into Macro or Meta?

KRIS: We would classify it in Meta and Micro.

MYRNA: Yes, yeah, right.

JOHN: Yes, because you use them in the Micro.

KRIS: And in the meantime you can always work on your magician’s hat. Very important! No self-respecting magician is without the hat!

(Laughter)

MYRNA: We should all bring a hat!

KRIS: As you wish!

MYRNA: Check out Harry Potter.

KRIS: Now then, we leave you to your lovely magical selves and do feel free to conjure yourselves at any time, as you already do so well.

ALL: Thank you, Kris.

(9:20 PM session ends.)

Secrets of the Ancients – Part 1

May 21, 2006

Channeled by Serge J. Grandbois and Transcribed by Ellen Gilbert (Kwaa’Ji)
Recorded in Toronto, Canada on May 21, 2006

Roll Call: Serge, Mark, Katherine, Ellen, Brian, Paul, Jo, Ester, Ella, Tom, Jon, Steve, Tom, and Lisa.

[MARK'S NOTES: As I found out on a walk session shortly after this session, it was NOT Kris who delivered this transcript. The energies, the personality that we refer to as Kris is now able to act as a bridge for 'more of' the Brahm energies, the Source of Kris' own Being. The walk transcript will be distributed as a newsletter in the VERY near future. It, along with the June 01, 2006 walk transcript will explain this phenomenon in more detail.]

(7:49 PM)

KRIS: Now we are glad that you have given us your consideration this evening and we are thankful for your presence even if it is through the auspices of your modern technologies. As the title for this evening implies, “The Secrets of the Ancients,” we will be discussing a variety of perspectives of more ancient cultures as well as various technologies and perhaps delve into the very subject matter and topic of “ancient” and what that may mean. And to your immediate eyes, quite certainly images and ideas of old civilizations and cultures have already made themselves known to you, giving you a mild hint of some of the subject matter to be discussed, perhaps even in more than one evening.

As you may or may not be aware, your world and civilization [that] you participate [in] and help create is definitely not the first or the only civilization to cultivate technologies in the ways that you have and your civilization is not the first and by this we also take into consideration what you take to mean older civilizations. Perhaps you make a mental reference to the ancient Greeks and the Romans, the Egyptians, Assyrians, Acadians, Sumerians, Babylonians, perhaps you even take into consideration the ancient civilization of the Hindus Valley, Bharata, the Vedas, etc.

But it may even surprise you that your planet has seen a far greater number of civilizations come and go than your historians would ever admit to, and many of these various very older civilizations have left artifacts, some small and some not so small, in various parts of the world. And in many areas new discoveries are constantly coming to the light of study. Many of these ancient cultures have had their own versions of technological achievements, some that even surpassed your own present culture, even though some of these older, ancient civilizations have been without expression for many thousands of years.

And many of the artifacts and findings from these older cultures are not yet understood so they lie in the bottom of drawers in many museum basements, sometimes in the homes of collectors of ancient artifacts in private collections, and many still are undiscovered awaiting a sufficiently enlightened culture for them to be re-discovered in a manner of speaking. You think, for instance, that it is only your civilization that has discovered X-rays, lenses, dental work in the manner of your modern dentists and dentistry, surgery, electricity, mathematics, and so on.

And yet there are many such discoveries being made concerning the items mentioned and many more that pre-date your present culture by sometimes as much as three, four and five thousand years, which would indicate, in a manner of speaking, that those ancient artifacts and tools also took a long time to develop, as long as your own present modern tools have taken a long time to develop, which implies that some of these older civilizations had been working on these instruments for quite some time in the development of THEIR history.

And as we have mentioned in the past, it is often difficult for modern historians, archeologists and other scientifics to allow that some of these tools and instruments predate your own similar inventions by several thousands of years as if up to a certain point in ancient history these items are not supposed to be where they are. And since these bits of evidence and facts do not necessarily fit in the theories, they are assigned to those older historical periods. They are often relegated to ‘file 13′, or labeled as something else, or sometimes either destroyed, or there is a consensus to say that nothing exists, in spite of certain evidence.

And we mention these things because each of you listening in on this session or reading this transcript, as well as many others who may not be physically present at all, have participated in one way or another in these older displays of achievements and civilizations with many of you continuing the exploration in different circumstances and conditions within this lifetime. But above and beyond this we also wish to mention that for what many of you consider superstitions, myths, tall tales from older cultures of an apparent time when things were more MAGICAL, so to speak. Of a time when, from your perspectives, it is sometimes considered that these older cultures did not understand science as you know it today.

We do wish to mention that there indeed have been many periods where what you would call ancient civilizations functioned on an entirely different base of knowledge and information, where completely different understanding of physics as you know them were quite acceptable in such terms even that some of these would make no sense to you today, because you are accustomed to one specific mindset, whether it is global or localized. And even your notions of ancient cultures, ancient civilizations is slightly biased and prejudiced in perceptions with your modern worldviews and official line of consciousness.

Now we are not saying that everything, every old story and myth was necessarily true in the terms you understand it from your modern perspective, but many of these old ancient legends and stories indeed made a great deal of sense to those who operated within the parameters of these other times. And to you, it may seem that your age of scientific enlightenment and discovery is so far the greatest achievements of all civilizations; yet your age of scientific exploration and discovery, from our perspective is another kind of experiment or exploration, utilizing a different set of mental physics and rules, molding and shaping your perceptions within given sets of parameters quite unlike other civilizations that you would normally qualify as being in the past, since you see yourself as the future of these older cultures and civilizations.

But that is, again, only a perception and we believe it is important to explore and keep this in mind when looking at any other civilization that you automatically assume exists in the past, as it were. And you also keep in mind that perhaps a thousand, five thousand, ten thousand years into the future as it were, your entire sets of achievements and discoveries may themselves be classified perhaps in the same light as YOUR present perspective classifies the differences, the discoveries and the achievements of your ancestral foundations in that way.

And herein lays one of the keys. You may give some due consideration to the idea that you work with beliefs. Your life, your reality, your physical realm is the by-product of your collective and singular beliefs, but you need to develop an appreciation for the temporal nature of your journey through time and space. The ancient Vedics called material nature the illusion of Maya, or simply illusory nature, meaning simply that it is temporal, and not permanent… Non-temporal.

What IS truly non-temporal is the knowledge that it is your combined singular and collective point of concentration that generates a specific model and version of physical reality with all of its pros and cons as a conscious, mindful and deliberate experimentation on one type of line of consciousness. And in your view, it is referred to as the official line of consciousness; but even this is temporal. But within the temporal nature of this experimentation, there are hints, indeed, of things, for lack of a better word, that transcend the temporal nature of the world.

You are already aware of color as one of those intrinsic, eternal truths. We have some time ago hinted that there is another. We referred to it as soundlets. And in your reality this is expressed as various kinds of sounds, and quite specifically, musical sounds which, in terms of music, is something that is found within all cultures presently or anciently. And this is why in some respects; human beings enjoy expressing themselves through music to such a degree. (Pause) Not only in your present civilization, but all your past civilizations as well, and it will continue into what you can only surmise as being the development of future civilizations.

Now, as we have hinted at earlier, there is a very specific collective mindset within your civilization and this is one of the other keys that will be explored as the evening develops. What you can truly refer to as “ancients” have always understood. They speak of knowledge that collectives come together with a specific mindset, a collective purpose that is related to another discussion of ours from previous weeks in terms having access to your many minds and intelligences.

And just as on your biosphere, on your planet, remnants of ancient cultures are found stratified in different layers of soil, so do you have many different layers of minds and intelligences all operating very nicely and congruently within your own psyches, layered and laid out in such a fashion that it is possible, with practice, with determination and patience, to actually explore those inner domains, those inner layers of intelligences and inner civilizations within your own psyches. This is something that can be explored, but will not work for you if you expect that within the next five minutes you will gain access.

Another intrinsic proof that pierces the temporal nature of your physical world is dreams and dream states. All human beings, past, present and future, to one degree or another, must sleep and must dream for a variety of reasons. And dream states can be developed and utilized even from the waking perspective for extraordinary explorations and the cultivation of knowledge. And we must be clear here: we make a marked distinction between the gathering of information, information the likes of which is in clear abundance at all levels of your present society, sometimes merely for the sake of information itself. We do not consider this to be knowledge. You may know a thing, you may have knowledge of a thing, but it may not mean that you HAVE knowledge.

And then there are two distinctions of knowledge. There is knowledge that is akin to the types of information that permeates your modern society, the kind of knowledge cultivated with the mindset of the ancient Greeks, knowledge about the temporal manifestations of the world, which is a fine species of knowledge all on its own.

There is also another clearly distinct type of knowledge also often considered a worthy pursuit by the ancient Greeks and many of the older civilizations before them; This, a more wide-spread type of knowledge, and a more ancient one, which is called “knowledge of SELF”, “SELF” all in capital letters, which must include the type of knowledge that distinguishes itself with temporal affairs and mere information for the sake of information.

It integrates these two within its matrix because it is part of the pursuit of SELF-knowledge, because it is created by SELF. When a society becomes fixated on the accumulation of information and makes that it’s base of knowledge only and loses sight of that which creates the information, then your society is to a certain degree, diminished. It loses touch with its own essential nature which transcends the temporal attributes information and the knowledge of things and how things work.

So our tendency is to affiliate with SELF-KNOWLEDGE. This is also an extremely important foundational truth and cannot be arrived at merely through the accumulation of information or the knowledge of things and how things work. This type of self-knowledge has fueled and motivated many of the greater civilizations, many of which have come and gone, but the knowledge of which is still embedded within your own psyche, your own selves. Now, what is the time?

MARK: 8:28.

KRIS: Then we suggest a small pause within which you may consider knowledge of SELF.

(Break begins at 8:28 PM)

MARK: How was that?

STEVE: Well, what I’d like to ask him sometime today is, he says these other civilizations are gone, I’d like to know how they ended. I mean are we talking about war, asteroids, ice age, and does he see any of that for us coming up?

ELLA: Well, maybe they shifted, right? We’re not the first ones who shifted.

MARK: Yes … all of the above.

ELLA: Those are just the choices to withdraw from the experiment. The experiment has a beginning and an end.

MARK: There have been so many of them that they’ve ended in various different ways.

ELLA: Right, because the choices are multiple, depending on what was their objective, but I’m sort of interested in what Kris said about “independent experiments”? I don’t think so because he said they [each] retain some portion of the knowledge of the prior civilization, so I guess there are continuances, to a degree, not entirely.

STEVE: Ella, what do you mean we would have gone out of business in the past life Shifted? You mean they went to another dimension or something?

ELLA: Well, my understanding is after you shift, eventually, not right away, but after you shift, you reach a certain level where it’s not necessary for you to play in this particular playground and the Essences withdraw their point of attention and transfer to other dimensions. That’s how I understand it. It just might be my interpretation.

STEVE: Well, I never heard that one before.

ELLA: Okay! Well, there’s always a first time for everything!

(Laughter)

STEVE: I’m a little worried about this global warming that we’re concocting and it might turn into some say, an ice age and we’ll be under a mile of ice.

ELLA: Well, Steve, it ain’t gonna happen while you are alive, I’m telling you that!

(Group laughter)

STEVE: I don’t’ know…they say it can happen real quick!

ELLA: Well, then you die quick too, so don’t worry! You’ll go through transition and happily ever after.

STEVE: I don’t want to be out scrounging for acorns.

Steve brings up various possible future catastrophes, including World War III and the bird flu epidemic. Elias, he states, recently said that the bird flu was an unlikely possibility. Paul says that Steve could have paid him (Paul) 50 bucks to tell him the same thing, to group laughter. Jo offers that during the California energy crisis a few years back, Elias maintained from the very beginning that there was no crisis, that it was an invention of the energy magnates, which later proved to be correct. Paul states that the bird flu scare is most likely just another attempt at fear-mongering in order to keep the population on edge and distracted from paying attention to themselves. “It’s called ‘the tail wagging the dog,’” said Serge.

JO: We’re controlled through our fears.

PAUL: They’re all important issues, of course, but the Armageddon scenario…

ELLA: They are a reflection of the state of the society, right? Of our global consciousness.

PAUL: How about the floods in the Northeast United States? That’s [another] imagery of a major natural disaster. You know, pay attention to these things.

ESTER: I have to give you all a five-year-old’s perspective on this issue. My niece, she says that there are too many people in the world and something needs to happen so a lot of them will die!

(Group laughter)

PAUL: She’s a child of the Shift! Maybe she knows the anti-Christ!

ELLA: Steve, in respect to what you said before, if we are all collectively making decisions and that is what we are manifesting, I wonder you know, why we are all still doing that, because objectively the majority of people still don’t adhere to these philosophies, but subjectively they are all out there and communicate, so I guess that’s the reason for why we behave the way we behave.

LISA: More things to learn.

MARK: Ella, as long as we keep having internal conflicts, an internal dis-ease, we will continue to express it externally, so it’s up to us individually and collectively to resolve these inner conflicts and become more intuned to Self — the bigger Self, the whole Self.

ELLA: So what you’re saying is the more of us who resolve these inner conflicts, the more we will shift the balance towards stabilizing this system?

MARK: Yes.

ELLEN: We all have our own inner Iran, inner Iraq, and inner Afghanistan. They’re all reflections of our own inner turmoils.

MARK: And Ella, you just have to worry about your own inner conflict.

ELLA: Actually, I’m not worried about anything but me. I’m not looking at the news, and I’m not external as much right now. I was just responding to what Steve was concerned with before, when he was saying how we all produce all of these kind of pre-disaster situations. But what you just explained, I agree with, but I believe that subjectively we all communicate, right? We’re all part of the same experiment, so what is going on right now? Is it by design…

MARK: (As Kris returns) Hang on!

(Break ends at 8:40 PM)

KRIS: Now do forgive us for edging in a word or two!

(Laughter)

Be it as it may, one of the most important things to keep in mind is that there are also many different kinds of ancients who have secrets, and there are definitely many so-called ancient civilizations that have come and gone, that have left behind artifacts, instruments and tools, some of which are not necessarily understood by your present cultures. And these are also a different kind of ancient, but we will play on the words here and state that whether you understand the definition or not in its entirety, does not eliminate from the game, that for all intents and purposes, you ARE the ancients, you ARE the moderns, you ARE the futures.

You yourselves are numberless civilizations of selves, and though we are well aware of your eternal nature, something which sometimes you gently need to be reminded of, we are also well aware that simply stating that all you need concern yourselves with is the fact that you are eternal, may not quite cut the mustard. You may, if you choose, bask in your eternalness, but what does an ancient eternal being do? Does it have a belly button to contemplate? Picking out cosmic lint? Or does it DO something? Does an ancient eternal being actually do something, other than bask in its eternalness?

Remember nothing is stale and static. The one characteristic above all else unique to consciousness is that it is always in a state of being and it explores that nature of being through its desires and its intent, its sentient intent and it takes on the roles and capacities of many things, such as lives, focuses…legions of focuses, in as many different periods of time and space of a temporal nature as is possible, setting up a game plan for the unleashing of its own creativity in as many ways as possible.

Thus, in a cosmic nutshell then, that is what you the listener, you the reader, do. You create opportunities up to and including focuses in as many different civilizations as possible, in as many different mindsets as possible, in as many different points of reference as possible. You do this, then you are not subject to the whims and visions of something other and greater than yourself. YOU do it. You create the temporal nature of time and space and all of the opportunities including other civilizations, that which you consider ancient civilizations.

And within you, therefore, are many GREAT secrets, the most secret of which is self-knowledge, something which many of you believe must be obtained through someone else, or through something else. And we wish to make this very clear, that you do actually contain many of the secrets of the ancients because YOU ARE THOSE ANCIENTS. And it is possible to have access at least to some of that material within yourselves and even though some of you may gripe about having to actually DO something to have access to that kind of knowledge and information contained within you, it is not as dire a situation as you sometimes make it to be, if you would only allow that which is already there to make itself known.

But you already have over much time become somewhat expert at denying, discounting and ignoring that which is there, thinking instead that you are in need of some saving, or something to that effect, through the auspices and agencies of others. It could even be said that you are Gods in the making, since you assign to the Gods and Goddesses those very creative principles that are yours to begin with. And you invent those legends and myths as a means to, and an attempt to, convey to your consciousness that ancient knowledge, those ancient secrets. And knowing that this is the case, can indeed tip the scale to your advantage, knowing that it is you who create those things in the first place.

Now, there are certain things that can be done to accelerate this knowledge, not only of self, but knowledge of, awareness of, other focuses that you may indeed have and we should re-phrase that, that you indeed DO have, in all of these other temporal situations. And that knowledge is not affected by the temporal nature of the time-space continuum, just as you are not. And we can indeed share with you one small means by which you CAN have access to some of the wealth of this knowledge. And we must state that this exercise will not grant you super wisdom, super knowledge, or super strength either.

It will not make you a super-human being, but it may indeed open the doors to another kind of inner knowledge. And this simply requires that, first of all, you find some means to work with recalling your dreams. And we are not qualifying it as only those dreams that occur when you sleep, but any dream that you recall. And that you understand that the recall of any dream, even a waking dream or a sleep dream, is an interpretation only and it will begin to open the gates of knowledge.

We wish to be very clear on this again; what you recall is an interpretation. We mention this because interpretations, which can still have various degrees of distortions, are often utilized and interpreted as absolutes, even to the point of science fiction stories becoming religions in themselves, so one should keep a clear distinction.

[Speaking slow and rhythmically.]

Now, one need only…YOU need only, right now find yourselves in a comfortable sitting position and gently close your eyes, or leave them open, as you prefer, and gently begin a process of gentle, slow deep breaths that allows you to be relaxed. And as you continue slowly breathing and relaxing, you become more and more concentrated on the sound of our voice, and your breathing gently enters a rhythmic process very similar to that rhythm that exists when you are in a deep sleep, but in this case you do not fall asleep, you listen gently to the sound of our voice, but the depth of the relaxation is similar to the state generated in a deep sleep.

And as you continue to focus upon the sound of our voice, you allow all of your pre-conceived notions of time and space and objects in that time and space, including the space you are presently in, including the room your physical form is gently relaxing in, and all of that to gently melt and slip away from you as if it were little more than water drops running away from your body when you shower. Time, space, objects and forms just run off of you, melting away whilst you are still focusing on the sound of our voice as a secure anchor.

And as the sound of our voice securely cuddles you, you can allow yourself to explore what other ancient time, space, and even forms that exist around you that is cuddled by the sound of our voice as if you are looking out a bubble of awareness into another ancient time and place. Take a moment to look about, observe what you are noticing.

(Pause)

Apart from the sound of our voice, do you hear other things? What do you see? What do you sense? What do you feel? What do you smell? What do you experience? (Long Pause)

Take another moment to consider what you may look like and feel like in that other time and space of ancient Source.

(Pause)

What gender might you be? How are you dressed? What is your physique like?

(Pause)

And once again pay attention to the sound of our voice and let that environment and all awareness of it run off you like water running off your body. And concentrate on the voice that is being heard by you in the room you are in.

Take a gentle but deep breath, making yourselves aware of your body, returning your breathing to its more regular state as in when you awaken. Move your fingers and toes. Breathe deeply and on the count of three you will be completely aware of your usual, physical surroundings. One, two, move your hands and feet, wrists and ankles, arms and legs, and three, you are fully aware, fully returned to your forms and to yourselves. And take a small break.

MARK: 9:07.

(Second break begins at 9:07 PM.)

[During break a few people offered their experiences during the meditations. We ran out of time for everyone to be able to recount their explorations, so Mark asked that anyone who had an experience to email him and he would add them at the bottom of the transcript.]

(Kris returns at 9:18 PM)

KRIS: Earlier on, we made mention of your perceptions being somewhat prejudiced in favor of your culture and civilization being somewhat the epitome of human endeavor and thus past civilizations being considered although nice and interesting places to visit, they are quite likely somewhat more primitive according to your prejudiced perceptions and definitions.

And we do want to make a point of this, because, to a large degree, you focused in those particular areas and you interpreted some of your actions of consciousness in light of your prejudiced perceptions. It is quite likely that another ancient culture or civilization may not necessarily have developed the automobile as you know it, but you might be surprised to find that quite ancient cultures not only had hot and cold running water, but fully flushable crappers!

(Group laughter)

And as the expression goes, that ain’t no shit, Sherlock!

(Gales of Laughter.)

Though to your perceptions, an older culture might appear as more primitive, do not be too quick to rationalize it in that light of prejudiced perceptions. Many ancient cultures had use of electricity, not specifically for lighting their homes as you do, but for other uses up to and including healing the physical body. It is now known that, the ancient Egyptians and we are not talking of the Egyptians commonly referred to in your history books, but THEIR ancestors, the ones who built the foundations for the pyramids and so forth.

They had use of electricity for electroplating and we know that in your culture it is almost scandalous to even mention that you are not the first to have discovered electroplating, but you are not. Other ancient cultures, including the Egyptians, the ANCIENT Egyptians, had sophisticated methods for brain surgery and cranial evidence shows that many patients not only survived, but thrived.

So we simply wish to make a point that sometimes your perceptions may taint your experiences, thinking that sometimes an ancient past experience might be primitive in some way, just as you might tend to think future explorations in this manner may be more sophisticated in some way, though they might not.

There might even be regressions, if for instance there is a potential for a global cataclysm of some kind which has occurred on your planet before, thus eradicating many foundations of knowledge. Knowledge of things and knowledge of Self, leaving you only with the instinct to survive in a hostile environment until such time as you are sufficiently capable of RE-ACCESSING ancient knowledge, ancient wisdom, and RE-INVENTING, as well as inventing new things as has occurred in your distant past. Now what is the time?

MARK: 9:25

KRIS: Indeed then! Perhaps, if you are all in agreement, and willing and desiring we will return next teleconference pursuing this lovely topic, deepening the exploration, guiding you into yet further memories and awareness of ancient secrets. And with that, we wish you many pleasant dreams.

If you wish to give yourselves suggestions for deepening dream exploration along this topic, you may request a dream to help you cross the Bridge of AARONII. If you wish a spelling, it is Double A, R, O, N, Double I. AARONII. (Pronounced AIR-O-NYE) And form that in your mind as you drift to sleep. You may perceive experiences that night or shortly thereafter, but it requires that you keep some writing of your dreams, and perhaps those related dreams can even be brought and discussed at the next session. Perhaps Philip may be so kind as to open the line for a moment?

[Mark un-mutes everyone.]

And, if there are one or two short questions, perhaps you could share for us, relevant to topic. We may decide whether to answer or not.

ELLEN: What does AARONII mean?

KRIS: You have heard of the ancient Greek story of crossing the River Styx into the Underworld?

ELLEN: Oh, yes.

KRIS: This is of course, entirely allegorical in spite of the fact that there is an underground river used in ceremonies related to the Oracle of Delphi, both in ancient Egypt and in Greece. The Grecian one formulated on the ancient Egyptian model.

Egyptologists believe that they are fully aware of the pantheon of the Egyptian Gods and Goddesses in all their where-with-outs. However, the original Egyptians had yet even older myths. And we are speaking here of a time before the Great Ice Age, in excess of 10,000 years in your historical past.

These ancient Egyptians, referred to as the Netjer, not related to OUR Netjer, these ancient Netjer had their own myths, their own psychological developments, their own mindsets. One was an ancient healing process to access the deep parts of the subconscious as you have it, and it did involve crossing a bridge with a deity, a source of energy, referred to as AARONII, that was meant to travel with the individual, in this case likely a patient and lead him to explore the contents of his subjective awareness.

Keep in mind that even your ideas of subjective awareness may sometimes pale in comparison to a full, three-dimensional subjective awareness whereas your culture and civilization still only experiences within it from an observer point of view and not a participant. In these ancient times, AARONII would travel with the individual, helping the individual become much more fully aware of the contents of his or her own subjective awareness, thereby often leading to the recognition of, the causes of, discomforts, disease, malaise, etc.

This is an ancient part of your awareness heritage and you can request then, that this ancient imprint in your subconscious be brought forward to travel with you and assist you in these inner explorations whilst you sleep. Does this answer your lovely question?

ELLEN: (Laughing. I didn’t expect the detail in Kris’ answer) Absolutely!

KRIS: Indeed then.

STEVE: Kris? Are you listening?

KRIS: Indeed.

STEVE: Stick around longer, we enjoy chatting with you. The question I had was: each one of these older civilizations probably had some cataclysmic event, as you say is our potential now to wipe them out…I know that just as our subjective awareness cannot predict the future, because the future hasn’t really happened yet, but you can perceive present probabilities’ likelihoods, whatever the probabilities are, for happening in the future. Whether they come true or not is not what I’m asking. Is there any present probability that one of these cataclysmic events is a current likelihood, probability to occur to wipe out a whole lot of us?

KRIS: The human race would only engage in such actions if the race itself disconnects from its own value fulfillment in the present moment and wishes to pursue a different kind of experience in value fulfillment. Your race nearly had such an event with the plagues in the Middle Ages, the Bubonic plague to be exact; something which is not fully eliminated from your reality, even to this day.

There are perhaps, a hundred or two individuals in North America and Europe that still develop the Plague as a potential reminder, in a manner of speaking, that you could have suffered the cataclysm and elimination of your species by disease, because you all lost heart in your convictions about yourselves. You may not completely eradicate and eliminate diseases, even with your Shift.

Some people need some way to get out of physical existence when they change their minds. Presently there are many kinds of potentials that can explode in your faces, so to speak, but none so great that you cannot resolve them, and THAT IS THE POINT. You can CHOOSE to resolve some of your challenges and issues, instead of jumping for the old pre-emptive strike pattern. Do you follow?

STEVE: Yeah, could you give me an example of a past civilization? What made them decide to bring it all to a screeching halt?

KRIS: There was a very large civilization in Central America many millions of years ago that had far-reaching influences and impacts and that — subjectively only — decided to opt out by a cataclysm. This culture was situated where now is found the Gulf of Mexico and they drew upon themselves the creation of a massive meteor, giving them the opportunity to shift somewhere else. Now, what is the time?

MARK: 9:40.

KRIS: Now then, we must leave you and your lovely selves wherever in time and space they are, for you to enjoy and discover prejudiced perceptions or not. And with that, we bid you pleasant AARONII dreams.

ALL: Thank you, Kris.

MARK: While I have everybody’s attention: since obviously we don’t have enough time to hear everybody’s experiences they had during the meditation, we would appreciate it if some of you would email us at krischronicles@gmail.com some of your experiences you had and we can add them at the bottom of the transcript.

[ELLEN'S NOTES: Some brief discussion ensued following on Kris' description of the cataclysm that occurred in Central America many millions of years ago. Paul stated that a meteor impact wouldn't leave much archeological evidence other than a crater hole. Mark said that the Gulf of Mexico itself IS the crater. Steve wondered if all members of civilization were "in on that deal." ]

PAUL: They’d have to be.

STEVE: What if you wanted to opt out?

PAUL: Then you wouldn’t have been affected by it. You’d have been off fishing in your dinghy in the Caribbean somewhere, if you’d survived the tidal wave.

ELLEN: (Dryly humorous) Steve would have found a way to get there.

(Laughter)

PAUL: You know, back to Seth, basic Seth, there’s no death that is an accident at all, on any level.

(Kris returns)

KRIS: Do keep in mind that we only concentrated upon THAT specific locale, however, the shock waves and the tsunamis that would have been birthed by the impact would have been felt around the planet where many others also jumped on the bandwagon, so to speak, for their various purposes. Just as many perished, many survived, setting roots for many foundations for other cultures, mythologies, civilizations and when they perished, the survivors of THOSE cultures and civilizations may have gone on to set seeds and roots elsewhere and on and on.

There are always some left behind to instill new potentials and the memories of those things are all within your psyches. Sleep sometime if you wish, and even request the AARONII take you to that moment. But you have to provide your own popcorn! (Chuckles) And there may not be any academies or any awards for those performances, but rest assured that indeed much knowledge and many self discoveries to be made. What kind of nations, cultures, and civilizations did you give birth to, OR did you perish with? Inquiries for inquisitive minds indeed and a blessed good night.

MARK: 9:46.

[ELLEN'S NOTES: A request was made for a summary of the AARONII dream method. Since I had asked Kris for the meaning of AARONII, I had taken down notes and now read them off to the group, so that everyone could practice the method during the two weeks until the next teleconference.]

STEVE: (Jokingly) Ellen, did you used to be an executive secretary for a CEO somewhere?

ELLEN: I should have, shouldn’t I?!

(Laughter)

MARK: You ARE one for the Brahm Group!

PAUL: [This AARONII practice] is like the Gates of Horn on steroids!

(Group cracks up)

PAUL: (Words lost)…more specificity to the practice, but I think its accessing similar areas.

ELLA: Kris promised at the next teleconference to offer more exercises, right?

MARK: He’s going to continue the topic.

ELLA: Yeah, but he also said he wants to go deeper, so I assume that he’s going to give more exercises.

ELLEN: He wants us to practice this and write down and offer our dreams at the next teleconference.

ELLA: I had a question: I know that a lot of you record your dreams. Do you just keep a paper by your bed, or use a recorder, or what do you do?

ELLEN: That’s the way I do it. I just keep a paper and pen by my bed.

PAUL: Tape recorders. I keep a tape recorder by the bed, and get up and go into the bathroom and its two AM or whatever, while it’s fresh, I get off whatever details I can.

ELLEN: (Humorously) Oh Jo, he’s so considerate!

(Laughter)

ELLA: If you wake up, you don’t go right back to sleep? You just right away record whatever you can, right?

PAUL: Well, it depends. Sometimes you wake up and you actually run through the videotape so to speak, to make sure you’re getting the four or five major scenarios before you even move a muscle, because you might forget something by the time you get to the bathroom.

ELLEN: Yeah, it’s actually important not to move [the first few minutes], because the more awake you become, the more you start forgetting, or you start revising and interpreting.

ELLA: All right. That makes sense.

PAUL: And then you can take that tape and the next morning write it into your word processor or write it down, and you’ll get other hints and other bits and pieces.

ELLA: I’ve been recording them for awhile, maybe a couple of months, and I’ve been really good at it and it helped me to find a dream trigger, but the trouble is, that it takes forever to record them, and I don’t have much time in the morning before work, so I haven’t yet found the balance to do it.

PAUL: It’s a central practice. You know, tonight he said that’s the very first step.

ELLA: Well, I can do it, it’s just….you know….you have to write and write and write forever!

ELLEN: Yeah (chuckling)…I take a pen and paper with me on my job and just…

ELLA: Yeah, well…I guess there really is no other way….it’s a silly question, I understand, because you have to do it!

ELLEN: But some snippets will come back to you …you know….as you’re writing, as you’re thinking, pondering about it, some things will start to come back to you…

ELLA: I guess what I was asking really was, do you guys also spend as much time writing them down, because sometimes they come very detailed. It actually takes some time, it’s like you’re writing a little story.

ELLEN: Yeah, it’s true!

PAUL: An hour. I’ll spend an hour.

ELLA: Okay, that’s what I wondered, because roughly it takes me half an hour to an hour.

PAUL: All these practices are to help you concentrate your awareness on that type of information that second kind of knowledge of Self. They’re just tools in the toolbox to concentrate on subjective awareness. These are central to the ‘Avatar Yoga’ that Kris is teaching. I’m sitting here being a cheerleader for this: find the time! This is really important. You’ll only go so far as you’re able to concentrate.

ELLEN: Yeah, the onus is on you.

PAUL: And we synergize with each other, some of us make breakthroughs that motivates others of us to (words garbled here) [dedicate more time and energy to do it.]

ELLEN: There are periods of time, too, when you won’t have a lot of dream recall. You won’t have a lot of dream activity. It will still be there, but you just won’t recall it very well. Sometimes you are more involved into things that are happening in daily life and that’s good, really. You go through cycles like that.

ELLA: I guess the key is to just do it without expectation. Sometimes I write down dreams, (words garbled here) [and what next? What do you do with what you've recorded?]

ELLEN: I’ve written down my dreams and a year or two later, I’ll go through my journal and then it all starts coming together and I understand a lot more than I did at the time I wrote them down.

MARK: Ella, one thing that I found personally [helpful] was, that every time Kris would tell me to write my dreams down, I would imagine a billion different reasons for NOT doing it and then I wouldn’t do it. Finally it hit me. I turned around and I saw a picture in my mind of me waking up in the morning and writing them down. And sure enough, I’ve been doing it.

ELLA: Picturing the way to get up in the morning?

MARK: Just picture doing it! [Writing down my dreams.]

ELLA: Basically you stop making excuses? You start picturing the solution.

MARK: That’s right.

ELLA: That’s actually very good, I appreciate that.

[ELLEN'S NOTES: There is a short period of bantering with Steve about our creation of cataclysmic events, but the recording was degrading and difficult to transcribe. Steve also asked about dream practice and Paul and I both re-iterated the importance of dream recall and recording. Steve said that he had trouble understanding the meaning of dreams and I assured him it didn't matter, that sometimes months and even years can pass by before complete understanding comes.

Paul reminded him that Kris told us not to take our dreams too literally. He stated that even after 27 years of dedicated dream record-keeping, he still often is bemused by the dream content, but that he doesn't worry about it. He finds patterns improve over time that he recognizes certain dream imagery as dealing with certain issues, whether health-centered, relationship-centered, personal growth issues, or creative issues etc. He emphasized to not be overly literal and demanding of linear results because dreams don't work that way.

Shortly thereafter, the participants were reminded once again to email their dream experiences and everyone called it a night.

(Session Ends)

MEDITATION EXPERIENCES

Mark's Meditation: During the meditation I was able to see MANY different focuses of mine, including a future focus of mine in Germany. I saw Pele, a small boy and an African boy about the same age who I have seen before, but can't remember his name right now.

I saw myself as a native Indian on a Palomino horse on the plains below the Colorado Mountains. I saw the wise old man with the long beard which is a version of, or ONE image of Philip that comes to me every now and then AND I also noticed LOTS of children during this particular meditation. That is not the norm for me.

I continued scanning for images and feeling tones when my mind passed over South America. Suddenly I became VERY aware of a focus of mine there.

To jump back into my own history, I discovered several years back that when my mother was a child, she told my Grandmother that she had been a Mayan Princess. Of course they all had a good laugh over that, but when I heard about it, I knew it was true, even if my mother dismisses it now.

Now, jumping back into the meditation, when I became aware of MY Mayan focus, I realized that my focus was VERY close to my mother's focus. I am not sure if I was her father or maybe her sister or even a very close confidant, such as a teacher or shaman. I didn't get much insight into my focus, just the knowledge and understanding that that was where my Mom and I bonded and began our explorations in physical dimensions together.

I left the meditation emotionally strong and connected. LOVED, I felt LOVED... and Loving.
Ella's Meditation: I knew I was going deeper this time almost from the start. I disappeared from the room and felt myself floating in the darkness even before Kris suggested doing so. It felt like lying on a cloud in a purplish hazy light while the rest of the space was dark.

As Kris suggested that he envelops us with his voice I had an imagery of being in his hand, while he is in the middle of a sort of clock. I was able to move the hand clockwise and counter-clockwise changing the focus of my attention, going counter-clockwise felt like going to the beginning of time, so to speak. I remember going counter-clockwise and looking at the scenery changing in front of me. At some point I decided to stop as something attracted my attention. I saw a small village and funny looking small people in it. There was a tug at my heart, as if I should have known them, and then there were big bold letters in my head, like a yelp of recognition, THE SHIRE. At that moment so much joyful energy entered my green energy center if felt like a jolt. If felt for a moment that I was home.

Then I moved again in the same direction, and again changing imagery was flying past me but I had no wish to stop until I saw some wispy looking beings on Earth. Somehow inside I knew I'm seeing my Dream Walker aspect at that time, but I did not connect emotionally, just watched for a while, as they were all busy and moving with purpose. They appeared to be sort of gliding above the surface rather then walking.

Realizing I went very far toward the beginning I changed the direction until a wonderful feeling of flight took over. I stopped and saw myself as a mythological creature, which looked like a hybrid of human and bird, human torso and bird's claws to perch on a branch, and large beautiful wings, which allowed it to glide in the air very gracefully. I felt myself / it flying and gliding and there was such a sense of freedom in that movement that I did not want it to stop. Eventually this being found a branch to seat on and I moved on in the counter-clockwise direction once again. This time I wanted to see how far I could go.

I was moving the hand until there was just Earth covered with vegetation and nothing else. At least that is how it appeared to me. At first I wanted to leave immediately as there was nothing there and then I felt a pull, a connection from the Earth itself. It was conscious and it conveyed tremendous love to everything on it, as everything was part of it. It felt as if the Earth was very maternal... Loving and proud of everything that is and will be. That is the best way I could describe what I felt. It was a very powerful and loving connection...

After that I wanted to go back to the times closer to ours and find someone, which looked like us now. I started moving the hand clockwise and stopped when I recognized a focus I've connected to once before and really liked. She is a very old Eskimo woman, called Mother Tak but her tribe. At the time I saw her she was sitting outside and working on stitching some closing from the fur skin. Children were sitting around her and she was telling them stories of the olden times. It was a lovely picture, very homey and kind. Mother Tak has bronze wrinkled skin. Her cheeks are tattooed and her gray hair is in two braids. I want to say that she lives in 14th century, but not entirely sure of that impression.

At that point Kris called us back. End of journey.
Ellen's Meditation: I saw myself as a young lad, very simply dressed in a shapeless tunic sort of thing, very homespun looking. I flashed on goats and/or sheep and him goading them about, a small village of humble little stucco-like houses. I saw a hillside and he went up it, driving the animals along. At the top he looked out over the vista and saw an army, or troop of soldiers amassed down below. He wanted to go with them, I felt that strongly, and I THINK he was probably, really, too young, but got the definite impression that he went anyway, either against his family's wishes or simply left without them knowing, and despite his age was received by the commander of the troop.

I got a strong feeling of the attraction he felt for their armor and the taste for adventure. I had a very slight feeling of wistfulness, maybe even sadness seemed to come from looking at it all in retrospect, as if from a knowing perspective of seeing his youthful folly and naiveté and the likely outcome of his discovery later that war ain't pretty. When Kris brought us back up to normal consciousness, I noticed a single tear had slid down beside my nose, which surprised me, because I didn't think I was that far "under" not to have noticed something like that. So there was a bit of an emotional connection to the scene, that I didn't fully register.

I don't know exactly what time period it occurred in, but it felt like sometime BC, Biblical times, in the Middle East somewhere.
Joanne's Meditation: I imagined myself walking in a light rain (it was raining outside and I could hear it), barefoot on a dirt path. A guide put a warm wrap, and his arm, around my shoulders and an umbrella over us as we walked the path along a riverbank to our left. Ahead of us was a bridge and I imagined an undefined figure on it. When we got to it, I thanked my guide, and took the two wooden steps onto the small bridge. I notice that this is beginning to feel beyond the realm of my imagination. The figure on the bridge is now facing me and takes my hand to lead me across. He is floating, I look up at him.

He wears a long aqua blue robe, his hair is light brown and full, his face is middle aged, kindly and chiseled with hooked nose. He floats backward as he leads me across the bridge which halfway across gets longer and the other side takes on a different, hazy appearance. I begin to float. We float higher, above natural landscapes, then into a tarry sky, a familiar space for me that makes me feel that I'm "out there," but have trouble holding onto. And I do again, and soon go to sleep.
Paul's Meditation: My impressions began with A-frame (which would foreshadow something later, at the end). That A morphed into a snow-covered volcano in the distance and a town nearby. My rational mind kicked in and the image ceased. Doh!

I got a brief A-frame morphing into a pyramid. I saw a male member of royalty dressed in Medieval garb, looking much like a prince or king. He morphed into a male dressed in Egyptian garb, with a short maroon skirt and dark, striped head-gear like that on the sphinx. He was some kind of engineer.

Then my mind drifted, there was a beautiful granite stairway that descended into..... what? My rational mind kicked in again, and the scene vanished.

Finally, I got an image of some kind of machine with a five foot rotating blade, like a giant fan, but with blue and red lights, and other things I couldn't quite grasp.

The A-frame was a precognitive sensing of the "Bridge of "AARONII" (pronounced air-oh-nigh) exercise Kris gave at the end of the session.
Tom [N.J.] Experience: I see a man, an Indian from ancient India that does not appear to be technological advanced. He is tall and lean and has a dark skin of a hue not common in current day U.S. This man is me.

The temperature appears to be warm, but not hot or humid. The man is wearing brown and or tan clothing. It may be leather and suede. He is holding something; perhaps a hunting device. He is standing at the curbside looking around. There are many people about moving at different gaits. There does not appear to be any automotive vehicles. While the area is not filthy it is still not clean, perhaps it is worn, tired. The man is alert and as he steps off the curb into the street my perspective changes. I am now seeing everything through his eyes. I hear the sounds of the people talking, walking, their carriages and animals. I try to look about me. I see smoke rise from my left.

It has the flavor of meat in it. Someone is cooking meat in the street and selling it. Then it happens: Someone touches my right elbow. I experience exhilaration, surprise, shock, joy and instant recognition. This is my brother. This part seemed the most real and the least forced. But who is my brother? It is not the brother of this current life in the U.S. It may be my father, who is purported to be my brother in another life. Could it have been Ramruva or even Kris?
Lisa’ Meditation: I started writing this after the session thinking I’ll remember more into the week but I just didn’t have time. Had to put in way too many hours at work….

Here’s what I can remember: There must be a lot from my conscious mind here cause I don’t take the time to meditate so it’s hard to say what I’m making up and what’s flowing….

I was weightless and suspended in outer space with a fog enveloping my whole body in a warmth. I look down at an angle and see the Earth. Its beautiful dark blue color, the weather patterns, clouds, I dive toward it, and as I get closer, I see the landmass is a bit different, there are also two moons.

I am on the Earth, desert, building pyramids with sound. It’s a warm day with a strong wind blowing. I am male, average height, with long, dark, curly hair, a bit of a stocky build, wearing a white Greek toga, I have no shoes or shirt. My feet are wide. My skin is dark brown. I’m in charge and am directing people. I think it is Egypt, but it may not be. I hear a singing type of chant in the distance, and I sing along. All of us who are present at the pyramid building site are creating a sound in our minds through imagining it and we’re directing it toward the rocks as we move them and place them. There’s a large metal looking tuning fork that’s creating a sound that we can’t hear.

I “felt” being that other focus. Like I was allowed to by the focus? The hair, the body, the muscles, I look alright. Not ugly, and not eye-candy either. I am in this moment, then I step back, he “feels” me and we acknowledge each other and I go away.

DREAMS OF AARONII EXPERIENCES

Mark’s Dream: I had this dream on the morning of May 22, 2006 the morning after the International Session called “Secrets of the Ancients – Part 1″. It is important to note that, first of all I never remember as many details as I did with this dream. Also, I usually only remember one dream and sometimes have a vague impression of a second, but this morning I REMEMBERED THREE dreams.

This is the third (last) and the major dream that I had:

SETTING: A house, a BIG beautiful mansion with LOTS and LOTS of rooms, hallways, doorways, entranceways, closets and people. This mansion had wonderful character and was well lived in.

CHARACTERS:

Master of the House: The Master of the house was never seen, but it was openly understood that this individual was GREATLY respected. He is wealthy beyond many ideas of wealth and he is a loving, compassionate, well traveled and educated Being.

The Butler: This individual was a very devoted, loving and caring man. He loved his job. He loved the house, its master and his wife.

The Wife: This is an elderly woman who on one hand has all of her faculties, but on the other hand is considered to be quite mad and on the verge of insanity. Her ramblings are often considered to be ‘crazy’.

Me: I was in the dream (of course).

Others: There were MANY other people in this dream which is a bit unusual. There were many people visiting the house, working in the house, living in the house, etc. Also, I had at least two companions with me when I entered the house.

THE DREAM: I suddenly become aware that my companions and I are in this wonderful house. We are talking to the Butler and his wife. They are very nice people. The wife is going on and on about “The Lost Children”. The Butler leaves and we are left talking to the wife about the lost children. She hands me a book, a comic book I believe, but there is a coded story in it that if we decipher it, it will lead us to the lost children. She also hands me some other documents.

The Butler comes back and gets angry because we are upsetting his wife and kicks us out of the house. We regroup and with the help of an insider, we get back in. We then begin to explore and snoop for clues into the mystery of these lost children. At this point it is exciting. I feel like one of the Hardy Boys or Scooby Doo, but unlike the cartoons and fiction, I am part of the action and my emotions are strong. When I am hiding in the house or snooping around, I feel FEAR, fear of getting caught. I also feel all of the emotions in regards to helping prove that this woman is not senile and in trying to unravel this mystery. Overall, my emotions during this dream were all positive and joyous.

At one point I run head on into the Butler. He is mad and demands to know what I am doing in the house. I told him the truth. I told him that I am trying to unravel the mystery of the lost children. The Butler, at this point admits that he is uncertain whether the lost children were a result of this woman’s delusions or if they really existed and CAUSED her madness. He agrees to turn a blind eye to my explorations and to help distract some of the occupants of the house that may want to prevent me from finding these lost children, JUST AS LONG AS I don’t disrupt the household, his wife or the Master of the Household.

CONCLUSION:

The House itself and the Master of the House represent SELF, as in my WHOLE SELF.

The Butler represents my EGO, a very loving and devoted individual who has a job to do, but if I work WITH him and don’t disrupt the household, I can explore and have fun inside of the house. The Butler can also be considered the OFFICIAL line of consciousness.

The Wife represents the UNOFFICAL line of consciousness or my Subjective awareness. She is always giving me clues as to other aspects of my own Self. Of course, the Butler thinks that she is mad and is uncertain whether there is any truth to what she tells me.

The Lost Children represent other Focuses or Expressions of Essence.

The other people in the house represent other ASPECTS of my own Self. Some of them help me to find the lost children and some of them hinder me, but needless to say ALL of them have the best interest of the HOUSE and of the MASTER of the House at heart or, in other words, MY best interests at heart.
Ella’s Dreams: I requested AARONII’s help as well. It was intriguing…

I remember three dreams. The first one left just a general idea…

The second reflects on some of my beliefs on “corrupted top”.

Third reflected on how my fears are often are self-imposed

4/22/06 AARONII dreams

1) The only memory of the first dream I have is some vague idea about telescopic nature of knowledge, of learning. The more you learn the further you could extend yourself…But I lost the rest as soon as I woke up at about 2am to write it down.

2) This dream had darker overtones of being lied to and knowing about it.

Me and my coworkers are in some large and tall office building located in what looked like jungle, with a huge tree almost the height of the entire building growing in the middle of it. I remember our CEO telling us that they are planning to take of the tree, and then later as we were walking down the stairs which go around the tree, we saw a worker watering it with some dirty water. Somehow I knew that the management wants this tree gone and they are killing it, but don’t want to tell us. I felt that the ‘top’ is corrupt in this dream…

3) In this part my son saw me being intimate with my husband, and at first I was horrified, but when I came out to talk to him he let me kiss him as if nothing happen, and I knew that he understood that what he saw was normal. He did not judge. It was a relief…
Ellen’s Dream: I had only a few hours of sleep last night, but I did ask for an Aaronii dream, and I awoke with this dream:

I am in my backyard where I have a garden, and at the far end of it there is a wooden fence and gate, beyond which is another garden that I have nearly forgotten about, left neglected for I don’t know how long.

The gate is rickety, wooden — reminds me very much of my real wood gate that gave me the splinter that led to my writing of my “Jane Roberts, Splinter” article — and as I go to open it, I notice a large spider lurking under the latch and I withdraw my hand hastily. Now I am squeamish about opening the gate, but want to tend to that garden.

My son comes up and I figure out some way for him to hold one side of the gate frame that will allow me to open the gate without either disturbing the spider or risking having to touch it or deal with it in any way. I know this is ridiculous, but my old revulsion of spiders is prevalent in the dream, though I wouldn’t dream of hurting it or killing it, I just want it out of the way. As we are discussing this, the spider sticks out a leg and at the end of the leg is a strange little five-fingered spidery hand. For some reason, this makes us laugh.

The spider is one of my totems, and a hard one for me, as I have an old innate revulsion of spiders. But the spider is a totem of the creative writer and artist and has much to teach about creativity and the weaving of words and images, so I’ve been trying to embrace the spider imagery of late. The labyrinth is also evocative of the web of the spider, so the spider itself can be representative of shadow work.

One of my recurring shadows is the creative blocks I often find myself up against, really just not believing in myself, or putting huge, but illusory obstacles in my path that keep me from reaching my goals. In this dream, I already have a nice garden and yard that is flourishing, but I have a hankering to go and develop this other one, an old neglected one that I have the feeling I could nurture and revitalize, but there’s that old creepy spider that I have to get past.
Joanne’s Dream: My dream recollection from that night was scattered, but I had these dreams the following night (5/23):

There was a huge eagle carrying two children, flying towards me. The eagle was holding onto one with his talons and the other was holding on to that child. I stood out in the street and saw this coming towards me, and I realized this eagle needed to try to deliver these children, and needed my help. I held out my arms as he flew right towards me. The first pass, I grabbed the child who was on the bottom. It was a small boy, about 2-3 years old. On the second pass, I had the boy in my left arm, and I grabbed the infant girl with my right arm.

In another scenario, there was a red countryside, and we decided to travel into it without any need for trepidation, we decided, because it probably wasn’t as scary as it looked. We thought it would change to green as we went, and it did, from red to yellow to green, but not as brilliant green as I’d desired but was approaching that before the dream ended.
Paul’s Dream: This dream occurred Monday morning, after the previous evening’s Kris session. I am on a bus explaining the Spiral Dynamics integral color scheme to people. (Spiral Dynamics is an integral psychology system based on stages if human and cultural development. The bus is a recurring symbol of traveling between dimensions, and movement, dealing with issues, in physical terms).

I go through the first tier colors from PURPLE to ORANGE. As I introduce the second tier, YELLOW and TURQUOISE, I explain how these stages involve more than the sum of ALL the previous stages. In the dream state, the subjective FEELING of this difference was VAST, just incredible. It was the first time I really experienced it from the inside, so to speak.

So when I woke up, I had that feeling, knowing that this was a dream related to the Bridge of AARONII that Kris had just introduced.
Tom [N.J.] Dream: I seem not to be remembering my dreams since that night. I have tried to cross the bridge or AARONII (or as I like to spell it: Eironai) but nothing; the one significant dream that I can remember occurring while I dosed off waiting for my elder daughter to fall asleep. I dreamt that I was in a closing and woke happy and satisfied. This is auspicious because I just recently got my real estate license and just got my first listing. As if to reinforce the sentiments of this dream, a friend of mine dreamt that same night that I sold my listing.
Lisa’s Dream: Here’s one I remember.

AARONII Dream:

1st impression: My Mom is gone (passed away) and I see my step dad passed out drunk wearing formal attire. He had a duffel bag close by that was partly open. I peeked inside and it was filled with copies of the Bible. (Real life: Mom is alive, and step dad is NOT a drunk but is a very spiritual man).

I am aware that my husband is with me, but I never see his face. He’s right there with me, at all times, throughout the dream, I feel very secure with him around. I feel his presence the whole time. (I realize later on that my “husband” in the dream is not really my present husband but more of a guide that I felt comfortable with)

The Scene: A Christmas party at a house. My house, but it’s not any physical house that I recall ever being in, but the place was so familiar, I’ve been there before, many times, and knew my way around. So though it was supposed to be my house, I was aware that it was a symbolic house. Like, it’s a certain place that I go when I dream, and though the house, the land, the surroundings are always different, it’s still the same place. ( I don’t know if that makes sense to any of you )

I knew almost everyone at the party, and there were little groups of people within the party that made up the party. I “greeted” a lot of people at the party with a head nod, but I never socialized with anyone else at the party but close family members. It was like everyone knew it was Christmas, and everyone also knew that my Mom had just recently passed away, so they we’re giving me and my family some space.

It was a strange Christmas. I had no presents to give, totally unprepared. My one brother who hardly ever gives presents was the only one who had presents for us all. He was also so very jolly, (he’s a very serious man in real life) which surprised me somewhat until I realized that though he is my brother in this life, and I am perceiving him as my brother in this dream, he is actually the same energy but someone else.

I was looking for other family members that I have in this lifetime, and thought that they must all be dead, otherwise they would all be here, so I asked my other siblings if they sometimes forget that people they know have died, and then you try to call them on the phone, then as you call, you remember that they’ve died. They all said “no, of course not” and I thought it was strange that it only happens to me. I also thought it strange that they didn’t know of our other siblings that have passed away. Why am I the only one that remembers them?

I realized then that this family I was with is a different family. It’s smaller than the one I have right now, and no one is missing, no one is dead. In this life, in this dream, some of my current family members are not part of this family.

The next thing I remember is that the party is over, I am still with my husband (or guide) and all of a sudden I am told by a neighbor that the owner of the house is coming home. (All of a sudden, it’s not my house anymore) And I felt rushed. Embarrassed. The owner was coming home, and I just had a party, it was a mess! I started cleaning up.

As I was cleaning up, I was surprised to find that on the lower level of the house, critters just come and go, like they own the place. (there was a bright snake, a beautiful colorful lizard, and some furry possum like creature that went across the floor. I was busy being shocked, a bit scared, frozen and staring at the critters that I didn’t realize the owner had already arrived and went straight to the upper level of the house. I wasn’t able to see or meet him.

Next scene: Back to a familiar dream landscape: No more guide. I’m in a remote area with hills, my house, the wind is blowing, it’s a warm day, I enjoy the breeze, I wake up.

My beliefs with dreams are a bit strange right now….if I want to remember a dream, I read Seth before I go to bed, and then I remember. If I don’t read Seth before sleep, I don’t remember my dreams. What an interesting creation I have going on right now with dream recall! Actually it’s been going on for a while….. It’s so weird, but it’s what works for me right now. So I have to read Seth, then request bridge of AARONII dreams…. otherwise, for some reason, I believe I won’t remember my dreams, then of course I don’t!
Brian’s Dream: 5/27/06 AARONII Dream:

I’m in what appears to be a 1960′s style kitchen complete with a red kitchen table on silver legs and I’m with…Phil Collins!!

I’m actually questioning (interviewing) him on the different songs of his career-My Favorites really. I’m asking him what was going through his head when writing “I Don’t Care Anymore”? That song has to be the angriest break-up song ever! Phil says that it’s in response to his divorce in 1979.

Next I asked about his favorite “slow” song from either the Genesis era or his solo stuff. That answer was a jumble of “Ripples”, “Alone Tonight”, Snowbound”, etc. Then I asked him what his favorite Genesis song and or his solo career stuff, was and Phil says “ALL of Them”(good answer).

Now the dream morphed into an English Countryside and Phil is driving me in an open-top British style car. On the radio is the live version of “In The Cage”(3 sides live)and then I ask Phil what was it like singing my most FAVORITE Genesis song of All Time live: SUPPER’S READY” He looks at me…smiles…and says……….

That’s when I woke up from this dream. Bummer! I wanted to hear his answer.
Steve’s Dream: Ok gang you asked for it,

You guys have got me in the AARONII spirit now and last night I dutifully followed Ellen’s instruction to request an AARONII dream just before nodding off. But also for the record I cheated (you guys might try this one too) and gave myself a telepathic command “I want to release more melatonin”. This was probably effective because I have never done this before and the first cut is the deepest, and I got so sleepy immediately I couldn’t hold my eyes open, as is melatonin’s effect. Melatonin has effects on a lot of other things too.

Well whether it was the melatonin or ye old AARONII, what followed was a type of dream I have never experienced.

Markey posted of his first AARONII dream

“It is important to note that, first of all I never remember as many details as I did with this dream. Also, I usually only remember one dream and sometime have a vague impression of a second, but this morning I REMEMBERED THREE dreams.”

My AARONII , melatonin dream was similar, in that I have rarely if ever and never since the brain clamp 1) remembered so many details of a dream 2) had a dream last so long3) 3)remain in the same room, in the same position with no action for the entire long dream 4)Have the entire dream be a conversation between me an someone, with no action, 5_Remember large segments of that conversation word for word. (My Subjective Awareness sure is chatty!)

So between the AARONII or the melatonin something was working!

The point of AARONII dreams is to get to the core of the SA [subjective awareness] right? To see what it is thinking. Well the dream of mine concerned me chatting with three young nurses who were caring for me in a hospital for my brain clamp problem and I sat in a chair and asked them a long series of questions about their lives like what kind of places did they like to go dancing at and they said to leather bars and my SA must be as judgmental as my conscious mind because I judged that sounded screwy.

I asked them if the Doctors thought my “disease” was non existent and of course they said yes and then I started asking them about the shift which I had just been reading about in Elias before going to sleep and they said they were aware of it and I told them by 2065 there would be no money etc and one nurse mentioned three of her favorite channeled essences and I guess this dream was about the future because I had never heard of them but am sorry I cant remember her three names so I can see if they come on the scene in the future. And then I started to tell them about Seth and Elias and Kris but I woke up here. And for literally the first time since I have been noticing my drams which extends back to January, nothing negative happened to me in the dream. I was having a ball.

So I guess the moral of that dream is that my SA knows about and has bought into and is as interested in the shift as I am, is as judgmental as I am, and is as obsessed as I am about my brain clamp, and also loves to chat as I do and likes to be in the company of young nurses as I would. So we are two peas in a pod and that proves the SA and the OA [objective awareness] are actually the same, as Kris said in a recent Mark post here.

So let’s hear it for AARONII, Rah Rah Sis Boom Bah!

Life of Brian – A Private Session with Brian (USA)

May 14, 2006

Channeled by Serge J. Grandbois and Transcribed by Ellen Gilbert (Kwaa’Ji)
Recorded in Toronto, Canada on May 14, 2006

KRIS: Now we trust that you are comfortable.

BRIAN: Quite comfortable, quite comfortable. Kris it is so good to talk to you!

KRIS: Indeed we thank you for your consideration.

BRIAN: Okay, we all ready there, Buddy?

KRIS: Now, before you begin with your questions, there are many areas that appear to be laden with confusion, misdirections and inner struggles of various degrees and kinds, many of which most likely end up giving you the feeling that somehow or other you are running faster nowhere. Or sometimes even that it would be best if you did not do anything, because most things that you undertake in any direction might end up adding to your struggles. And this may not necessarily be in all venues of life, but as far as understanding yourself as a person, as an individual. Does this make sense to you?

BRIAN: Oh, boy does it make sense! Wow, yes it does. Thank you so much.

KRIS: Now hopefully during this time we may share with you perhaps additional methods that can assist you in clearing up the fog that seems to surround you at times. This fog is self-generated. It has not been imposed upon you. It is not the result of external or other agencies, but your own self, especially in areas where you do not wish to make peace at times, for fear that that would upset the apple cart any more than it already is upset. Do you follow?

BRIAN: Oh yes, absolutely.

KRIS: Indeed. Now please feel free to begin your questions.

BRIAN: Wow, you know what? You were actually answering a few there. Actually, could we follow upon that line, before the first question?

KRIS: Indeed, as you wish.

BRIAN: Answer me that, then: why do I create such conflict with myself where I don’t get really what I really want out of life?

KRIS: It may not be that you get what you do not want out of life, but that you get additional items mixed in the lot that are not to your liking. Though there are many items in there you have an affinity for and you thrive with, you have an affinity for contrast. You like — on one level — you have a liking for…..we are looking for a word….the disparity between opposites.

You have an affinity for feeling as if you are fighting an opponent and it gives you something to focus upon, much like a retired general may still continue to feel the need for an opponent, even when, all things said and done, there is no necessity for one. There is a NEED for one. And there is a difference between the two. Do you understand?

BRIAN: Oh, absolutely. Absolutely.

KRIS: So what we are on the one hand suggesting, is to stop focusing on what you do not want out of your life, and begin addressing what it is that you DO want.

BRIAN: A long-term relationship with a woman.

KRIS: Then in the first place, you must be comfortable with a long-term relationship with who you are and if you do not like the relationship you now have with yourself, do not expect any other individual to come along and change that for you. Do you understand?

BRIAN: Yeah, actually Kris, is that what could that have created the problem I had with a low libido from the years 2001 to 2005? Because I went through a really difficult period when I was with Cynthia and it really, really just shattered my entire psyche about myself.

KRIS: What is your age?

BRIAN: 43

KRIS: You are still very young, as least compared to ourself!

BRIAN: (Chuckling) Well, I haven’t had nine cycles yet, no.

KRIS: There are any number of factors that can affect and cause problems in those areas, stress often being the major cause.

BRIAN: There was a lot of stress, yes.

KRIS: There are other stresses that add to the fire, but mostly a radical change in understanding whom and what you are will provide the most beneficial outcome.

BRIAN: Hmm. I like that. And how does one go about….I mean…I know you know intuitively….through talking with you, I’ve read Seth, Elias, yourself, Amiir, and I know what I have to do….you know where the confusion lies? In going about and getting it done.

KRIS: And we believe there is still no confusion at those levels. It is not difficult to envision and make use of materials provided by anyone along those lines. There are, however, resistances when you already anticipate the end results of the transformations and realize that transformations also initiate a giving up of old ways, old habits, old patterns.

BRIAN: And belief systems.

KRIS: Old belief systems, the old familiarities. And that can engender denial, even denial of denial. Human beings are extremely clever in those areas, even when all of the evidence is clearly presented, it can still be denied, because you can take a horse to water, but you cannot force it to drink.

BRIAN: No. Is there any herbal, natural cures for the low libido at times, are there any herbal cures? FOR that?

KRIS: There are indeed that can be most beneficial and without harmful side effects.

BRIAN: Exactly.

KRIS: There are several herbs. One is called Damiana Aphrodisiaca. This is one of the few herbs, apart from the green stuff, that you can also ingest by smoking. It is also available in tinctures, in tea form, and in capsules.

BRIAN: So, Damiana Aphrodisiaca.

KRIS: Indeed. It is often found as a compound in men’s virility formulas. Another extremely useful broad spectrum herb is called Maca. M-A-C-A. It is from Peru.

BRIAN: And these can all be gotten from an herbalist or a –?

KRIS: Indeed. Maca is not only for low libido, but is an overall, powerful tonic and system regenerator. We highly recommend use of this.

BRIAN: Oh, definitely, definitely. Thank you so much. Hey, Kris, can I ask you something? Being self… oh what’s the word I’m looking for? …I lied to myself during the relationship with Cynthia. It was so powerful and I really realized it: if you’re not honest with yourself you can create such stress, and such a lie to yourself that it really does affect everything around you.

KRIS: Indeed, because if you are not honest with yourself, how can you be honest with another?

BRIAN: So why was that relationship, which was so…it was so powerful, and it was so magical in a lot of respects, but in other respects it was such a reflection of belief systems. Could you go into detail a little bit about why Cynthia came into my life?

KRIS: It is not very difficult to perceive. You have already given yourself the answer.

BRIAN: Self-deception.

KRIS: Without that relationship you would not have brought to your own attention many of the contrasts and the denials you had become clever at denying.

BRIAN: Yes!

KRIS: You enticed that relationship as a powerful need in your life. Cynthia gladly participated at the subjective level for her own reasons, of course, but for yourself you drew that relationship because of the outcomes. The outcomes were already apparent, but not seen. So you needed a catalyst. That is what human beings do. You create situations because the situations are the catalysts by which you can then observe objectively what you often deny in yourselves.

BRIAN: Wow. And also Kris, the expansion….you know, I got to admit — from that relationship in 2004, Paul Helfrich turned me on to Elias, and then I got your stuff, and P’Taah, Bashar, and then my friend Joe, who channels Amiir, and through that relationship it was like this just powerful movement in me to go right back to where I’ve always begun, right back to the Seth material where I always felt comfortable –

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: — and I expanded…just threefold!

KRIS: Indeed, as you have now seen, one does not need to depend solely on prune juice to get the movement going.

BRIAN: (Laughing) Oh, that’s beautiful! Wow!

KRIS: When the mind becomes clear, the individual also becomes congruent. And that is one of your challenges. You are at times relishing your incongruencies.

BRIAN: Yeah, I do, don’t I?

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: Mmhm.

KRIS: In THAT you are congruent.

BRIAN: How about the word “fear”? Fear of change…you know, fear of actually discovering who I am, what I am?

KRIS: Our perception is slightly different: not so much fear of discovering whom and what you are, as it might be fear of letting go of what you already know.

BRIAN: Yes!

KRIS: That can make a tangible difference in understanding what direction you wish to go and how you wish to go about your new business of being.

BRIAN: Would that also entail, like even my job? I’ve been in the same job for twenty-three years, the same vein, and it always seems that my bosses at these jobs, I have so much conflict with my boss at work — and my boss in the band — and I always feel like so subordinate and I want to be free of all these, of someone higher than me, telling me –

KRIS: Then, we have a suggestion along those lines –

BRIAN: Oh! Definitely, definitely.

KRIS: The idea is not to free yourself of the burdens of an authority over yourself, but that you learn to appreciate the authority that you are in your life. Those individuals only reflect back at you what you feel about your own self.

BRIAN: Yes! It does feel that way! Correct.

KRIS: So this is not their conspiracies towards undermining you as much as the need for you to awaken and embrace at least what they represent. Because if you embrace some of THOSE bosses, you might end up with a sore lip!

BRIAN: (Laughing) And don’t forget, the other is you!

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: Indeed!

KRIS: Embrace what they represent in YOU and the changes will MAGICALLY make their appearance in your life.

BRIAN: Oh, wow.

KRIS: The situations, the conditions, will be transformed to meet your new perceptions.

BRIAN: Thank you. You know, a little experiment I did try a couple of months ago — actually for the past maybe seven months I was really utilizing Balance and Harmony — Sisters Balance and Harmony – every day, and actually, I noticed there was no conflict. Now, in the last maybe two months, once again I’ve slipped back into old patterns and I can see the conflicts arising, but when I really work quote unquote my “program” — Balance, Harmony, Grace, Joy and Love — I DO get a different result!

KRIS: Indeed, then continue incorporating those experiments into your every day well-being. Your entire physical life manifestation is a reflection of what is going on at those subjective levels, or inner fields of events. That is the only purpose for physical reality as you understand it. It is the means by which you can discern and gauge what you are doing in the utilization of your belief system. How you are manipulating energy in transforming it from one state to another. Does that make sense to you?

BRIAN: Oh, absolutely. Perfect sense.

KRIS: So it means, in other words, that you need — what is the old expression?– pick yourself up by the bootstraps.

BRIAN: Yes, action. Taking action would be a helpful thing for me.

KRIS: Indeed. And that is the way you move on. It may necessitate saying goodbye to old habits, old patterns, old thoughts and feelings, turning around and embracing the new ones.

BRIAN: Sounds delicious.

KRIS: Indeed. There is always a buffet awaiting you whichever direction you cast your gaze. But you have to cast your gaze in SOME direction. You can return to the old buffet table, and only see remnants and think life has short-changed you, whilst but two feet away there may indeed be a new table with a completely different, exotic, delicious buffet waiting to be eaten, but you have to look in THAT direction.

BRIAN: Well, I do feel like I’m in the middle of the ocean, after leaving one continent and heading towards another one.

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: And as you’ve said, look for the little islands, because they’re the little gems on your journey to a new continent.

KRIS: Indeed. They are very much like buoys, letting you know that this is the direction you need to take.

BRIAN: It IS the direction I need to take. And also I loved the — not the last International session — the one before, where I read that you said the past events are so fluid and so liquid that you can actually overlap different intensities onto the ones that were hurtful to nullify their effects.

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: And that I like. I really like that! There’s no really set order as far as the past goes. It’s all so interchangeable.

KRIS: Indeed, and have you tried experimenting with such notions?

BRIAN: Yeah, I have. In the beginning stages right after I read that session of looking at — well, especially the relationship with Cynthia — I looked at it like how can I change this and smooth it so it will be more — so there wasn’t so much of the trauma from it. Which was really my trauma, because I created it.

KRIS: If you care to, perhaps we can be of assistance in that play?

BRIAN: Oh, could you?

KRIS: Indeed!

BRIAN: Thank you.

KRIS: All you have to do is make certain you are seated comfortably –

BRIAN: Yes, I am!

KRIS: That the seat belt is on –

BRIAN: Mmhm.

KRIS: And take a deep breath, exhale, releasing all tensions and as you keep gently, deeply breathing this way, you focus more and more upon the sound of our voice, connecting yourself deeply within that voice, relaxing the body, allowing the throat to be nourished and healed [Brian has a sore throat and his voice is very raspy during the session], and allowing your mind to be cleared of all stresses, of all disturbances, much like rain is cleared from the windshield with each passing of the windshield wipers.

The mind is clear, and as you keep focusing upon the sound of our voice and relaxing deeply into it, you are entering a very large screen cinema and you are taking your seat in a very special chair, a chair that is on tracks, like a small train. And as you sit in this chair, you may notice that no chair has ever been as comfortable and inviting as this one.

And the sound of our voice keeps you in a beautifully relaxed state, clear of mind and you see before you the large screen, and upon this screen you will be able to play various portions of the life of Brian. And upon this screen you may see in the very middle, a projection of a portion of your life that you desire to be there. And it does not take the entire screen, it is in the middle. It consumes about one-fifth of the screen in the middle. Would you care to describe what small movie is playing in that area of the screen?

BRIAN: Hmmm….there are so many going through my mind.

KRIS: Just focus on one that is on the screen.

BRIAN: “Harold and Maude.”

KRIS: Indeed, then. Watching that movie of your life, how does it make you feel?

BRIAN: Great. What a glorious, glorious life I’ve had. A beautiful life.

KRIS: And now, in the upper right hand corner of the screen, another small film is projecting up there, from another part of your life, another empowering event. It could be about ANY aspect of your existence. Do you see that?

BRIAN: Yeah-h-h.

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: For some reason the movie “Patton” — when you were talking about a general — the movie “Patton.”

KRIS: Indeed. How does that make you feel?

BRIAN: Like a warrior. Unstoppable.

KRIS: Indeed, it gives you a feeling of strength.

BRIAN: Strength.

KRIS: Indeed. Now, on the lower right hand corner, there is another part of your life being projected on the screen, some events and conditions of Brian’s life that also give you positive feedback looking at.

BRIAN: Childhood.

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: Childhood. Loved my childhood.

KRIS: And now, on the upper left hand corner of the screen, pretend that you can see a portion of your life, a part of your life that may have been LESS comfortable for you. It could have been about employment –

BRIAN: Yep, I was thinking of that.

KRIS: Relationship…

BRIAN: I was thinking of that.

KRIS: Choose one and focus it up there.

BRIAN: (Pause) Focused.

KRIS: And how does that one in particular make you feel?

BRIAN: Mmmm….Turmoil. Little bits of tension.

KRIS: Indeed. Now, in the lower left hand corner, choose a particularly cherished experience of your life and project it there.

BRIAN: When I was out on Tinicum Island with Judy, for a whole afternoon.

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: That was magical. And another — could we have another cherished moment? — getting to run a Conrail freight train all the way out to Harrisburg. That was a blast!

KRIS: Indeed. Now, you are in this magical, comfortable chair.

BRIAN: Yes.

KRIS: And to get a better outlook on the entire screen with all the five movies playing, you can ask the chair to move closer to the screen. How does that make you feel?

BRIAN: Empowered!

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: I feel powerful.

KRIS: And just for experimentation’s sake, you can move the chair much further back, so that the entire screen looks more in focus.

BRIAN: It looks like my entire life.

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: Up to this point.

KRIS: And now, you can move the chair even FURTHER back, W-A-A-Y back! So that the screen looks like it is far away.

BRIAN: It’ll be looking at a before-birth.

KRIS: Indeed. Now move the chair back to its original position. The screen too, with all of its five mini-films playing, is magical.

BRIAN: Yes.

KRIS: As is the nature of the imagination.

BRIAN: Oy!

KRIS: And here we are going to ask you to take one of the four empowering situations — one of them — and switch it with the one that is in the upper left hand corner, that might be more problematic.

BRIAN: That feels better!……Yeah.

KRIS: How does your body react?

BRIAN: Calmly. Centered.

KRIS: Indeed. Now you are going to discover another magical power of that large screen. Just as you were able to move your chair closer or farther away, each of the mini-movies on its own, can be moved further away, or closer. We are going to ask you to pretend that the new position you have given to the less empowering situation can be moved further away, deeper into the screen. And at the same time, the other four can be made to move closer to you, making them bigger. And how does that make you feel?

BRIAN: Larger. It’s almost like seeing four movies, perfectly in a square, perfectly even with each other, and the fifth one is completely out of the picture.

KRIS: Indeed. Now we are going to ask you, even if you do not understand or know exactly how it is to be done, pretend that YOU have even more magical power than your chair or the movie screen, and that one of your magical powers is to draw from those four empowering mini-movies, the very essence of their strength, their power, their force, their wisdom and you can magically direct that energy into the one other movie that is almost obliterated from view, but still exists, and it saturates THAT mini-movie.

BRIAN: I’m saturated with love…..Mmhm….That’s what I’m feeling….like taking all the power from the four and focusing it right on that, filling it up with love, because it was a part of me.

KRIS: Indeed, and even though it is not obliterated, it is no longer necessarily part of something you focus on.

BRIAN: No, and I don’t feel the trauma from it any more, either.

KRIS: And, somehow or other, even its innate wisdom — because there WAS a wisdom in you creating it — is still relevant. It can be shared with the wisdom and loving energies of all the others. But it is no longer needed as an object of focus.

BRIAN: Even though it’s not influencing anymore.

KRIS: Indeed, and as you keep staying connected with the sound of our voice, you can take a deep breath, you leave that magical chair, you walk out of the theater, you close the lights and you come back to yourself, open your eyes, and breathe naturally.

BRIAN: Wow. What a great film!

KRIS: Indeed. We hope that you understood the humor in that “Life of Brian.”

BRIAN: Oh, yes, absolutely! That’s why I chuckled, because it’s Monty Python — “The Life of Brian”!

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: Amazing! Hey, you know what my seat was? An engineer’s seat inside an E-44 Electric! Which aren’t around anymore by the way. Which was actually a question that I asked you at the International session, Kris, you know, in my imagination — certain aspects of the old Penn Central Railroad, which is no longer around, and all these electrics, in my mind’s eye — I see them as powerful as when I actually witnessed them as a child. And when I disengage from here, will I be able to actually view these things?

KRIS: You can actually be part of their experience.

BRIAN: Oh, really!?

KRIS: As you were once.

BRIAN: As I was once! Exactly!

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: Oh, so you can feel the feeling of them going by, and the sounds and the feel…

KRIS: You are attracted to them for a variety of reasons.

BRIAN: Yeah, why am I? Why the electrics? Why that form of — those GG -1′s and the E -44′s? — and they hold — you know the electrification of the P-RR holds such a heavy, heavy energy within me! Why?

KRIS: There are two focuses, one which was a conductor on an old steam engine in England where the Industrial Revolution took its birth. And in your neck of the woods, there is another focus, now passed away who ran the engines.

BRIAN: Ran the electrics! Was it somebody I knew? Because I knew a lot of engineers growing up.

KRIS: We believe you may have been in touch with such an individual, but to be one hundred percent accurate, we cannot provide you that information. It is not –

BRIAN: You can or can’t?

KRIS: We cannot.

BRIAN: You cannot. I was thinking of John Eastburn. Big John. And John Cunningham. I knew these guys when I was very little. In fact they used to let me run the electrics when I was like eleven years old.

KRIS: We do believe that you have encountered that focus.

BRIAN: Yes, I have a funny feeling…and you know also, why you say that…. is when I was young, I knew, when I go out on the railroad, at a very young age, growing up in Media — as you say, my neck of the woods — I used to have an understanding of it at a young age, that I never knew where it came from, I just KNEW more knowledge at a young age than I ever thought. And my father, who turned me on to the Seth stuff, said, “Brian you’re a seeker, you know that there’s more than meets the eye in this reality.”

KRIS: Now it is for you to do something WITH that information.

BRIAN: Yes! Live a magical life.

KRIS: Indeed and a magical life does NOT mean that one is suddenly no longer using their noggin.

BRIAN: Right.

KRIS: A magical life actually requires even more use of that gray matter that you call a brain. Though some people would like it to mean that you no longer have to use your critical faculties — you simply act as a dumb individual and everything comes to you — on the contrary, the more you exercise that gray mass between your ears as something other than to stuff the cranial cavity, you expand your awareness, you develop that higher intellect which is a balanced utilization of intuitions, the intellect, the rational mind, the imagination, the logical mind, and your creative abilities.

BRIAN: Yes…yes. Kris my talent for music, as a guitar player — and I know I’m actually quite gifted at this — being a stage musician, I’ve written five pieces for the classical guitar. I would really like to take my talent to another level, and I feel I could…that age doesn’t matter…that I have the gift actually to…

KRIS: You are slightly older than American Idol would like.

BRIAN: (Laughing) This is true!

KRIS: And you might be in conflict with Simon!

BRIAN: Yeah! (Laughing)

KRIS: However, even though you might not specifically understand all the mechanics, there is definitely something to be said for having a goal. And you can ask the Universe to cooperate with you to start fulfilling that dream and desire. This works in two ways: you do what is necessary to follow and pursue your impulse in that direction, expecting that the Universe will also do its part to bring fulfillment to that desired goal. This is more charged than it appears. It is not only a matter of clicking your heels three times, but maybe FOUR times.

BRIAN: Ha!

KRIS: It does require that when the Universe communicates with impulses, intuitions and impressions that you act upon it.

BRIAN: Oh, you know what was coming to my mind? My father actually wrote a Christmas song called “Kris Kringle,” that’s always been in my mind to want to finish this thing, and it’s up there with the great songs of Christmas that have actually sold. And I keep thinking what a gift he gave. All I’d have to do is execute it, finish it off and find some way to market it.

KRIS: Indeed and why do you not do that?

BRIAN: You know what it is? I have a lazy streak in me and it’s also fear of success! Can you believe it, Kris? I actually have fear of success. You know, I’m talking to you about [how] I really want the woman of my dreams, and yet, I’m scared to make the first step…I know I can do it. I know I have so much power that I actually COULD accomplish it, that it like, locks me up. I want to get it done, though, I really do.

KRIS: There is another aspect to fear of success: that is fear of failure.

BRIAN: Exactly. Fear of failure. But I can’t be run by fear. I don’t want to be run by fear.

KRIS: It is natural to experience fear in many degrees, but it does not mean that fear has to rule you. You may be aware of it, just like somebody may be fearful of swimming, but they may eventually have to go into the water.

BRIAN: So like you said, dip my toe in that little pool.

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: Dip the toe and see how far…hey, you know, I really have nothing to fear but the fear itself?

KRIS: That is correct.

BRIAN: Just like the old saying: nothing to fear but fear itself. Because if I just do it, and know that the Universe is behind me 110%, I can do anything I want in this lifetime.

KRIS: It is one thing to talk the talk, it is another to actually walk the walk.

BRIAN: Yes, I’ve heard this before.

KRIS: And it would do you a disservice to accept mediocrity.

BRIAN: Thank you. I agree. Yes, it would do me a disservice to accept mediocrity. Absolutely.

KRIS: This means then that if you wish to move in your areas of desire then you must take the steps necessary to cross whatever bridges appear to exist between you and your intended goal.

BRIAN: Yes.

KRIS: And you will discover that once you begin the trek, then usually what may have appeared as discouraging fears eventually melt away. They were little but the product of your imagination.

BRIAN: Hey, Kris, can I use the movie theater technique to get this done? Because as you were speaking, I was visualizing sitting in my engineer’s seat in the movie theater and actually seeing these things getting done.

KRIS: Yes you may! Do so with fun –

BRIAN: With fun!

KRIS: And then, once you start putting these things into motion, you must act upon the invites when they show up.

BRIAN: Yes! You know I just got invited to do studio work for a rap studio, which I’ve accepted, and you know, I agree with you on one thing, I do have the contacts and the people to turn to, to aid me in this endeavor and it’s just a matter of reaching out and saying, “Hey, I’ve got an idea. Would you like to help?”

KRIS: Indeed and this may assist you in resolving your procrastination.

BRIAN: Right! Exactly!

KRIS: And the way to do that is to not try to take on the whole world all at once.

BRIAN: Incrementally.

KRIS: You do so with one small item at a time and before you know it — indeed! — You have already traveled many miles.

BRIAN: Oh, that is so great. That is so great! Hey, you gave me the name El-Don, whereas Elias and Amiir gave me Enzo, but I resonate so well with El-Don, in fact, I use it when I’m in the shower as one of my chants, where I go (singing) EL-DON! And I resonate! Who was El-Don? What is the history behind this?

KRIS: There are threads with this energy personality with older civilizations. The individuality we refer to loosely as El-Don was an instigator and motivator.

BRIAN: Ha!

KRIS: An individual who would easily — what is the expression? –

BRIAN: Black sheep? Created trouble?

KRIS: Not necessarily, but he would not ever ask another to do something he could not do himself.

BRIAN: Oh! A man’s man.

KRIS: Indeed. This individual (pause), we would actually have to say these individuals, because there is more than one –

BRIAN: Right, more Essences.

KRIS: Yes, but these individuals were present in at least three different stages of civilizations, all of which have almost disappeared. The only one that still exists is the remnants of the Chinese culture you now know. Before the present Ice Age – or the last Ice Age — the Chinese culture was even more advanced than it is today. The plow, for instance, was invented by the ancient Chinese thousands of years before the Europeans discovered it. There is a specific plow, the name of which escapes us.

BRIAN: John Deere? (Chuckling)

KRIS: Many inventions by the Chinese were merely rediscoveries of their own ancestors’ works. Many of which have been destroyed by invading hordes and armies and invaders. And there are many remnants of many other cultures, great advanced inventions, many of which still lie buried in museum vaults, labeled as “unknown” because they are often instruments which are not supposed to exist within those times.

BRIAN: Oh, so they keep them from the masses.

KRIS: Indeed. They are often labeled as religious artifacts because they do not know what they are about. And “religious artifacts’ is the usual label which says, “We have no clue.”

BRIAN: Right. You know, Kris, when you were talking about that, I was thinking my very personal family history — not with the Ferrell family, but with my own, with Brian, as El-Don? — I go back billions and billions of years, my family history. Of just myself.

KRIS: That is a means for you to understand — as well as for others to understand — that you will be found in all times and spaces, due to the nature of consciousness. And as an expression of consciousness and as an Expression of Essence you always ARE, regardless of the form, the historical times, the geographical areas, even the various dimensions that you are found in. Does that make sense?

BRIAN: Yes it does. How many cycles have I had?

KRIS: (Pause)

BRIAN: The number three hits me.

KRIS: We would say that you are in your third cycle.

BRIAN: In my third, yes. That’s what I felt. Pretty old, huh? (Chuckles)

KRIS: And yet by some other standards, you are but a pup!

BRIAN: Ah! You used my word! (Laughing) That’s the word I always use: “Just a pup!” Hey thank you for picking that up! Just a pup. There is no age, never will be. It’s all the spacious moment.

KRIS: The more you find pleasure, fun, creativity, and enjoy your creaturehood within all of the representations of the spacious moment, the more you can be who you are.

BRIAN: Yes. Exactly. Wow, Kris, this has been so, so good! Thank you, thank you so much!

KRIS: Please continue.

BRIAN: Okay. Wow, you covered a lot of stuff with me. Let’s see, you already told me about the acid reflux — actually Serge did — cured my left knee by using the Sisters…..how about the arches of my feet? Just one quick medical thing: the arches of my feet always seem to bother me. Anything I can do for that? Is that a balance thing?

KRIS: Orthotics.

BRIAN: Excuse?

KRIS: Orthotics.

BRIAN: Ah, orthotics. Okay.

KRIS: You have, we believe, the right leg slightly shorter than the left.

BRIAN: Mmhm.

KRIS: This will create a small physical imbalance. The body trying to create a balancing effect. The orthotics will help correct this.

BRIAN: Okay. And my kundalini — Ellen was talking to me about that — because we were going back to the low libido problem — she said my kundalini….you know for the last couple of years I’ve felt a split between my body and my mind….whereas you said there was a lot of stress going on, but I really….she mentioned the kundalini. Could you go into that just for a couple of seconds?

KRIS: In very basic terms, the kundalini is the life force — consciousness — from which you derive your being at that physical level. It is YOUR energy. It is that link to Essence. Now, there is also within you a need for grounding.

BRIAN: Yes!

KRIS: Which is one other energetic reason why there is low libido. We recommend that, apart from everything else discussed, to get your emotional feeling life on a more even keel, that you investigate the possibility of acupuncture. At least four or five sessions that deal specifically with the meridians for BALANCING and GROUNDING your physical being, especially that — keep this in mind — that whatever reputable acupuncturist you go to — that he or she also work on the points at the very curve of the heel, before it goes under towards the sole of the feet, the ball of the foot. Do you understand?

BRIAN: Right! The curve of the heel, before it goes under toward the ball.

KRIS: Yes. There is a point of each that will also work on awakening the unconscious which will ground you.

BRIAN: Oh, good. Good, good.

KRIS: It is not often known by acupuncturists. Some may have to look up in their reference manuals, but the point is there.

BRIAN: Thank you so much. And you also said get the Maca pill and Dimeema Aphrodisia –

KRIS: The herb is called “Damiana.”

BRIAN: Damiana, okay.

KRIS: And the other one is called “Maca.”

BRIAN: Okay, and they will help clear it. But definitely get the acupuncture, right?

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: Okay. Just go four or five sessions?

KRIS: Indeed. That should be more than sufficient.

BRIAN: Excellent and what about yoga? Why do I hear so much about yoga?

KRIS: Now, before we continue into that, with that work with the acupuncture point at the heels, there needs to be a needle in the very crown top of the head, right in the center of the head.

BRIAN: At the top of my head?

KRIS: Indeed.

BRIAN: Okay.

KRIS: Now, yoga IS an excellent means to cultivate a gentle approach in maintaining the body. If you have never done any yoga, you will need to start very gently, with a qualified yoga instructor. The point is for body purposes and grounding the relationship between body and mind, from that perspective. And it will work very nicely. It will also help alleviate much of the muscular tension stresses you undergo.

BRIAN: Yeah, I do, in the neck and the back.

KRIS: But this must be started in a GENTLE manner.

BRIAN: Okay, excellent. Well, my friend, all my questions for now are totally answered. Thank you so much, Kris!

KRIS: Indeed then. We thank you again for your gentle consideration, and we return Joseph to you now.

BRIAN: Okay, thank you Sir.

Purposeful Self

May 14, 2006

Channeled by Serge J. Grandbois and Transcribed by Ellen Gilbert (Kwaa’Ji)
Recorded in Toronto, Canada on May 14, 2006

Roll Call: Serge (Joseph), Mark (Philip) and John (Sohars)

(7:56 PM)

KRIS: Now even though you apparently have a very small intimate group, there is no reason to believe that such a small group would necessarily be perhaps even less enthusiastic, now is there?

JOHN: No.

KRIS: It is an opportunity to take advantage of a different kind of discussion, one that may be perhaps even more enticing than when there are larger groups and both sides of the grouping can be most enlightening. It is an opportune view to take advantage of the opportunities presented to you. The same goes therefore in any situation in your life, whatever presents itself, whatever you have forgotten that you have created can be seen as an advantageous opportunity to discover that much more about your lovely, wonderful selves. What say you to that?

JOHN: Perfect! Let’s take every possible advantage of THIS opportunity!

KRIS: How would such a mindset be utilized in every day life? Think for a moment about the many opportunities that rise into your day. How they could be seen as the opportunity to discover more about self.

MARK: We usually never look at it that way.

KRIS: Indeed.

MARK: We acknowledge choices.

KRIS: Sometimes.

MARK: Sometimes. (Chuckling)

KRIS: You take a moment to recognize that you are the one making a decision. You are choosing one thing over another for a variety of reasons. Most of the time you are on autopilot. You simply track through, thinking that everything that presents itself to you must be quickly shoved out of the way so you can go about your day,

MARK: True.

KRIS: As if the day itself is possibly a nuisance. However, if you DO switch on this other mindset which has a built in predisposition to view every situation as an opportunity for self-awareness, for growth, for enlightenment, for self-knowledge, the opportunity to cultivate wisdom in one way or another — in other words to make yourselves AWARE of the innate greatness of your Being — how could that possibly influence your perceptions?

JOHN: Well, just about totally!

MARK: (Laughing) I agree!

JOHN: It would certainly change the tune of a lot of things, definitely. Things that we might have set aside as being boring or even irritating could be seen in a whole new light.

KRIS: Indeed. It is often said that you follow the tune of the piper, correct?

JOHN: Yes.

KRIS: From our perspective, to which tune, from the piper you have created, do you dance?

JOHN: Well, there’s the two tunes, isn’t there? There’s the official reality tune, and then there’s that lovely, subtle melody that underlies it, that we don’t hear most of the time.

MARK: And then there’s that whole orchestra behind THAT!

JOHN: This raises an interesting question for me, Kris, do you mind if I just…?

KRIS: Indeed. Indulge.

JOHN: Um…..How did we, as a race, the human race here, without being too judgmental, how did we screw up so badly? What I’m thinking there is, I know it’s not metaphysically, politically correct to say that, and it’s all good for the experiences and whatnot, but haven’t we strayed quite a long ways away from just having fun and the adventure of being alive?

KRIS: Indeed. In many respects, political correctness be damned! (Mark and John laugh) If you had to draw breath and just every time there was a hint of political incorrectness, you would simply not move at all. You would be physically and psychologically constipated and no amount of Metamucil would clear the path!

(Laughter)

Now, there are different ways, various ways to perceive that. There is on the one hand, the greater perspective, the wider perspective that makes allowances for experimentations in consciousness and there is another narrower perspective that indeed does show that you can literally screw up at different times and for what possible purposes could this be, other than that you often tend, as a people, as a race, to take your experimentations overly serious.

You forget that you live in a wider, much more dynamic, living world and you sometimes tend to forget your own roots. You, for instance, have all very nicely subscribed to various scientific views that we have related in the near past that you are little more than the result of proteins and electrons gone wild and that existence is ultimately futile because there is no value in it excepting the wildness of these proteins and electrons. Does that make sense?

JOHN: Yes.

KRIS: Indeed, with that in mind then, it is no wonder that multi-nationals can go and clear cut huge tracks out of forests with impunity leaving behind total devastation, caring nothing about anything excepting the bottom line, because after, existence is futile, isn’t it?

JOHN: Yes, exactly.

KRIS: So who cares what happens?

JOHN: Yes, it’s a very soul-deadening perspective.

KRIS: Indeed and at the same time, the experimentation might very well lead you to the conclusion that those thought patterns and belief systems are not what you thought they were. Existence is far more precious and has its own sacredness that can also be violated as is your right by free will. Does that make some sense?

JOHN: Yes, yes, I think so. So free will is free will and…

KRIS: Indeed, you are free to destroy yourselves just as you are free to recognize the sacred impact of every aspect of life. Just a few days ago, Joseph was explaining to Philip that a friend of theirs has come to an amazing observation. Since this friend is a new beekeeper he realized that as many city folks are wont to do, wage war and eliminate dandelion, that pest in the front lawn. Do you understand?

JOHN: Yes.

KRIS: However, this friend recognized that there is an intricately delicate web weaving all of life together in ways that are often unseen by the everyday individual and in this case in particular. If city folk, especially those who have front lawns, ever got their wish, it could mean the doom of human civilization, for the simple fact that the very first food that bees eat when they awaken is dandelion honey. Without that, they would perish. Without bees, there is absolutely no pollination of fruits and vegetables, without fruits and vegetables, there is no food; without any food, there are no human Beings.

JOHN: Ah!

KRIS: A plain and simple diagram.

JOHN: That reminds me, just parenthetically, in that first “Edges of the Mind” piece, when you were talking about the difference in structure of the inner layers compared to the surface, language layer, you said that from the point of view of the conscious objective mind, the inner layers could seem chaotic, and then you said, “as chaotic as bees.” Now, it occurred to me when I read that, that bees aren’t chaotic at all.

KRIS: Indeed not.

JOHN: Al-l-l right! I just wanted to –

KRIS: To the ordinary individual, it may SEEM that they go to and fro and about, in a rather un-orderly fashion, busy as anything, and yet their society is highly structured. They do communicate through their various auspices and in many respects all of life is dependent upon them. They are not therefore to be dispensed with.

MARK: Kris?

KRIS: Indeed.

MARK: Getting back to John’s original comment: how we went so terribly wrong. Something has come up recently, as you are probably aware of and that is how do we NOT lend energy to things like wars and so on, these events and circumstances that we deem negative, without denying them or trying to ignore them?

KRIS: Indeed, this is a very touchy, New Age type of subject matter, and since the majority of people still tend to be very literalist, the idea is interpreted to mean that you must not think about war, you must not think about destruction, you must not think about man’s inhumanity to man. You must stop reading newspapers, stop listening and watching the telly [TV], stop discussing it, because you are, therefore lending it energy!

And this presents a very large problem indeed, because you then get into situations where individuals wear rose-colored glasses and stick their heads into the sand, pretending that if they do not see the world, then nothing is going on, therefore everything must be fine. And that presents an even bigger problem because then you have to set up defenses and barriers, even if psychological ones, to keep all of those aspects of human life in your field of ignorance.

JOHN: (Chuckling)

MARK: Yeah.

KRIS: You must divide the self further. Part of self then becomes the part that must not be concentrated upon as if somehow or other that miraculously goes away, but it does not. When it is said that you get what you concentrate upon, when it is said that what you observe is the result of your beliefs, it has a very clear meaning and it is not a literal meaning, but is highly subjective.

And that is that what you try to bury into the ground of unconsciousness, what you try to deny, what you try to turn a blind eye to, is that part of the self that you have created conflict with, and by burying that part of self, you are discounting self. Does this make sense?

MARK: Yes, it does.

KRIS: So our humble suggestion in such situations is to look at and examine those conflicts that you set up within self. Look at your inner Afghanistan, your inner Iraq, your inner Iran, your inner Bush administration…

JOHN: (Laughing)

KRIS: [Continuing] … your inner Harper dictatorship because all of these political systems throughout the world are reflections of parts of your own inner political strategies, your inner politics, the manner in which you structure your belief systems and when it gets too close for comfort, the tendency is to quickly stick your head in the sand. That way, if you create a semblance of not being aware, it could hopefully go away.

MARK: It’s interesting when this topic arose on Newworldview, I actually responded similar to that even though not fully understanding. I responded that it’s not up to me to change the world, it’s up to ME to change ME and ultimately you just expanded that to an understanding that I can work with.

KRIS: Indeed, most individuals are convinced that only what occurs within the realms of their one, two or three bedroom home is reality. Only what concerns that immediate objective self is their reality, but we have always contended that the other is also you. And pretending that one has no opinion, one way or another, about anything or anyone else is also another aspect of self-denial. You HAVE opinions. You dare not bring it to your own awareness, lest you feel you are somehow or other, politically incorrect.

(Mark and John both laugh)

This is again, political correctness be damned! Be honest with your own self-opinion. And understand the nature of that source, deal with the realities therein, and allow your Self to spread its wings and take flight. Does that make sense?

MARK: Yes, very much so.

JOHN: Yes, it occurred to me while you are speaking, Kris, that when you talk about the inner Afghanistan, if we’ve identified a part inside ourselves that we don’t want to look at and we want to deny, that’s our inner Guantanamo.

KRIS: Indeed, and it behooves even a slightly aware amoeba to investigate instead of castigate.

MARK: Ouch!

KRIS: Or castrate, for that matter. When you do this, you think you are being more enlightened, more savvy, expressing some kind of metaphysical wisdom, but you are not. You are digressing into a literalist, parliamentalist mindset, and this is why you have living representations in three-dimensional, full-blown format of such situations as Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan and so many hotspots, so to speak.

And you may claim, “Indeed, this is occurring in another part of the world, therefore it has nothing to do with me!” And again you cover yourself up in pretty lies. You know that it tugs at the skirts of your awareness for a very good reason. But you WANT to deny it. You WANT it to go away WITHOUT having to spend the time and energy to clear out your own attics. Therefore you want a government that will play hardball with other, perhaps [in] even less of a position than your own government, to hit on them, as if somehow or other you can then gleefully wash your hands of the whole situation, let someone else deal with it.

JOHN: Yes. Now, does the Shift that we’re going through create some subjective movement that is bringing this stuff up to consciousness for everybody? I mean are we all in the same…

KRIS: To one degree or another, indeed. You have many instances of high profile cases, where lies, deceit, and so on brought the downfall of major corporations, multi-nationals, some of the biggest financial failures in history so far because of those kinds of situations. Are you directly responsible for those events? Only to a certain degree.

What does it reflect about your own personal lives? That self-deceit also brings about the downfall of your own personal, incorporated self. Therefore it behooves each and every one of you to honestly recognize the self, both its sunny and shadow sides. By denying the shadow of your own self, and pretending you are all sunshine and lollipops, you may create a beautiful dance, but if you trip, you may fall on your nose.

JOHN: Yes. Well, along those lines, in our session that we had together, you suggested something to me; that I follow along certain types of pathways, and you said that what I’ll begin to understand is how I am censoring myself.

KRIS: Indeed.

JOHN: And I have found that to be very interesting. When I’m out on the bike and I’m riding around, what I will see is, I will see someone who is just a pure character…let’s say a bum or somebody, a pure character and what will rise unbidden to my mind is “Oh, what a stupid old bum that is, why doesn’t he get a job and clean himself up?” Right?

Now, for twenty, thirty years, I have been clamping down on that kind of an attitude, because it’s not right, it’s not caring, it’s not nice, it’s not spiritual. Lately, I’ve been letting that stuff, some of it flow through just a little and say, “Okay, I can see the beliefs involved there, I can see the influences, it’s okay, it’s not the end of the world, and my pardons to you, Sir,” as I pass the bum that instigated all of this, “Pardon me, Sir, Don’t mean anything by it, ” and on I go. Now is that a more healthy approach?

KRIS: indeed it is because it will eventually lead you to question that part of YOU that you wish had cleaned itself up and gotten a job.

JOHN: (Chuckling) Right on!

KRIS: That is where it resonates. And that is a deeper proof than the kind that wishes to stick its head up a sphincter!

(Laughter)

JOHN: Okay! Gotcha. That’s good. So, it’s been kind of fun! Now, honestly you know, what has been coming up is not what, I’m not real proud of some of it.

KRIS: These are particularly directed judgments of your own and they too should simply be allowed to flow. You are aware of them. There is no sense in trying to minimize or hush them up, as they are also intertwined with various kinds of other judgementalisms towards your own self. By Acknowledging them, Addressing them, and Accepting them, their influences dissipate. They are no longer taboo. You do not normally feel excitement when it is not taboo in some way. Do you understand that specific area?

JOHN: Yes, there’s a certain kind of fun that people have that’s called transgressive.

KRIS: Indeed, then transgress the taboos of your own political correctness.

JOHN: Uh-huh.

KRIS: And that is where you will find the truly rich dirt that will allow a new tree of self to grow.

JOHN: Very nice use of the word “dirt,” if I may say so.

KRIS: Indeed, all selves are “dirty” to one degree or another.

JOHN: I like that! (Chuckling) RICH dirt! Well that’s great, that’s very helpful. Well, just let that stuff flow, because it’s not like I’m screaming this out loud, this is all internal.

KRIS: Indeed and this is where you discover who and what Self is. What it is composed of. The Self is a vast and rich tapestry all woven together to give a semblance of orderliness, of purpose, and so on and so forth. And yet all of the aspects composing it come from different areas.

JOHN: It’s quite a trip, really.

KRIS: Indeed it is. And just as the bees, on one hand, are intricate to the survival of humankind, indeed of ALL living things, so are the worms of the earth. For without them, there is no soil for the plants to grow, so ALL things in nature are delicately interlaced, one needing the other.

JOHN: Now that’s very interesting because, remember earlier you opened up by saying what if every circumstance we met was an opportunity for us to learn something more about ourselves. Well, aren’t we learning here that our Selves are delicately interlaced and that every little worm, psychic worm part of it, is essential to the operating of the whole.

KRIS: Indeed. You see before you with your physical eyes a vast intricate ecosystem, which in itself is a reflection of your own vast psychological ecosystem. Every aspect integral to the other aspect. The self is a very compact organization.

JOHN: Okay, another question if I may. Remember when we talked about how I, Sohars has been around for three cycles, about a bajillion years and at the same time here I am a physical manifestation, a focal point of Sohars, doing what I’m doing here. And Mark made the interesting comment, he said, “You know, this is old hat for me, I’ve been through it all,” so that kind of puts some of the trials and tribulations of an ordinary day into perspective, realizing that you’ve been trialing and tribulating for a billion years.

It occurred to me that another way to think about that is that. There’s something going on here in this focal point of John Hawkins, me that is really, really valuable and important to Sohars after a quintillion years of being. Sohars has still got a motivation to do this thing, which is my life, which means that it must be very, very significant and important.

KRIS: How do you perceive this as providing an influence into your existence?

JOHN: It makes me feel that it’s not meaningless. It makes me feel that it’s really, really significant and every choice in every instance that I make is meaningful.

KRIS: That might even put you in a state of grace. As it should! As each of your lives are not a by-product of natural accidents or your mother’s missing the Pill or an accidental conception of any kind. You are here on deliberate purpose, each and every one of you. On deliberate purpose! THEN you open your eyes and you become befuddled and bewildered by the very nature of physical reality and you FORGET that you are a purposeful being and you accept some of the beliefs fed you into thinking that perhaps life is futile and meaningless, a random arrangement of events, circumstances and conditions of which you are most likely an unfortunate victim!

And you forget, you THINK you forget who and what you are, but beneath that thin veneer there IS a purposeful Being that takes this into consideration. The subjective self will take even your most destructive belief sequences in stride and try to instill within YOUR conscious perception that, in spite of all appearances, there is still a purpose here.

And the purpose is YOU! YOU ARE THE PURPOSE OF YOUR LIFE! It is not to die with the most toys or the most money, but to understand that you are the purpose of your existence. Does this make some sense to you?

JOHN: Yes, it’s lovely. I’m just kind of reveling in my own purpose here.

KRIS: Indeed, then we suggest a small break.

MARK: 8:36.

(Break begins at 8:36 PM.)

JOHN: Well, that is kind of fun to have just two or three of a thing.

MARK: Yes.

JOHN: It’s fun to just fire off whatever questions come to mind, eh? I didn’t even make a list!

MARK: I know.

SERGE: So it was good?

JOHN: Yeah, we just chatted.

MARK: PURPOSEFULLY chatting. [Being funny.]

JOHN: Yeah, it’s interesting isn’t it, to think about why Sohars decided after a kajillion years, “Oh, I know! We’ll do the physical thing!”

MARK: Again and again. It reminds me of the old analogy of “Could you chop off your finger?” You could, but it would cause you a great deal of pain, you would be slightly handicapped, yes, you could survive without it, but you wouldn’t be the same, would you? And that’s like Essence and all its focuses. Each one is a valuable part of the body or its own Being.

JOHN: Well, it might be more than that, it might be crucial. It might be a dandelion!

MARK: Yeah, exactly. It’s a crude analogy, of course and if you could chop one off, then you could chop them all off and then what are you with no fingers? Or no hands and no arms? It’s very limiting and it’s not, for an expressive being as consciousness is, that’s what the joy of consciousness is, in expressing.

JOHN: And having all your fingers.

MARK: And having as many unique fingers as you can.

JOHN: I remember somewhere somebody was talking about a game they played…I think it was….who was it? Elias? Anyway, when these guys get together at Sid’s or whatever, different Essences, they have a game where they pick a certain scenario and they spin out as many possible variations of it as they can in an instant. And you know, the person who gets the most wins. And I just thought that, in a way, that’s how we play life.

MARK: Yeah. It makes sense.

JOHN: I actually kind of tried it once. You know, inside out, upside down, over here, over there…You can very quickly get a large number of variations on something.

MARK: And we often only think about what we create as physical beings in this Earth-based reality, but how many dimensions are there out there that we’re creating in also, where the physical as it be, is completely, so drastically different? And even the non-physical is so different that we, as physical beings, can’t possibly imagine?

JOHN: For me that raises the question of: if we can do all that stuff and do it and are doing it now, what is the appeal of THIS? What is it? The decor? What?

MARK: It’s unique.

SERGE: The glitz?

JOHN: (Chuckling) I don’t know! You maybe get points?

MARK: If you can do it all, why not?

SERGE: You want chiffon as opposed to polyester?

JOHN: Yeah, well, it’s very, very interesting to me that six billion focal points are here playing this game. It must be quite a game!

MARK: Actually, that says a lot. It’s obviously worthwhile and as Kris has said before, there’s kind of a line-up to play the game.

JOHN: Oh yeah? I didn’t hear about that.

MARK: Yeah, of course it’s an analogy, but …

JOHN: Oh, people are waiting as Essence to incarnate here?

MARK: Yeah, to jump into the game.

JOHN: Really? Wow. So it’s a popular game?

MARK: Yes.

JOHN: Well, we’re kind of fortunate to be right in the midst of it, aren’t we?

SERGE: Sure beats Vanna White and Wheel of Fortune. Hey, how difficult can it be? Except for having to put on a new dress every show.

JOHN: Well, she has to know which [letter] lights up, right? Yeah, that’s very interesting that we’ve got this amazing game going here. And we’re getting ready for something…we’re changing the rules on ourselves in a way, which is kind of exciting.

MARK: Which enables more choices, more power, so to speak…more tools and resources.

JOHN: Did you ever think about the possibility of at some point getting bored with this metaphysical stuff and just going off and living a real life somewhere?

MARK: No. (Chuckling)

JOHN: Maybe it might be one of those point of no return things? A little bit of knowledge, I don’t know if I can shake all the perceptions I’ve acquired in all of this.

MARK: It’s like remembering something and then intentionally trying to forget it again.

JOHN: It’s not easy.

MARK: Why bother? Why would you want to?

JOHN: I like what he said about how all Essences are a little dirty. And then he went on to say: “go into the rich dirt and find the new stuff to grow”, very interesting. I think I’ve gotten into a lot of manure in my day.

MARK: (Chuckling)

JOHN: But that just means I’ve got a real good growth going!

MARK: Darn right.

(8:43 PM Kris returns.)

KRIS: Now to go back to our original question to your lovely selves: How would having a mindset that says that all opportunities and events are advantageous? How would this possibly influence the outcome of one day? What is YOUR graceful opinion on this?

JOHN: Well I think there’s a potential for that to one day, let’s say we absolutely did that, honestly and consistently throughout the whole day, I think you’d end up winning the lottery, or becoming king of the country, or…(laughs)…the potential for you to just COMPLETELY transcend whatever life you have. It’s very real.

MARK: From my perspective, my understanding is that you would begin to understand SELF. You would understand because you would be looking at everything from a POSITIVE, advantageous viewpoint or perspective, that you would begin to understand Essence’s role in physical reality. You would begin to see the bigger picture or a glimpse of it, anyway.

KRIS: You would definitely. Then, even too, the very reasons why not only you are the purpose of your life, BUT the purpose for you creating the events, conditions and circumstances which become part of your purposeful day. So that is, then, one of the challenges we humbly submit to all who listen and read this session. For ONE DAY pick up the challenge. CHANGE YOUR MIND. Literally, change the mind to one that sees opportunity and advantage regardless of appearances in the events and conditions, and circumstances that come your way.

JOHN: Great challenge. I accept it.

KRIS: One single day.

JOHN: Can we do more than one day?

KRIS: Begin with one day.

(Laughter)

MARK: It’s interesting that –

KRIS: Then see if, and possibly keep notations, and see how it compares to any other day and specifically how it compares to those days when you decided to wear a specific mindset, then forgot you did this, but a mindset that said that everything that will happen today is because something is out to get me, to prove me fallible, flawed, powerless, a victim, an ineffective being.

Make note of those comparisons, and THEN challenge yourself to try this new mindset for a second day! It could be a few days later. It matters not in that respect and see how THIS NEW DAY might influence your disposition and constitution, and see if you might like to try it for a third day. After all, one day or two or even three out of your entire life, is not such a bitter medicine to swallow!

The trick IS to stay within that focus AND EVERY TIME you notice you are falling back upon old patterns that belong to other kinds of days, other kinds of mindsets, that you can bring your focus back to the purpose of this day, that you are the very purpose of Being for that day. And anything else that seeks to contradict that can be acknowledged, addressed, and accepted, so that you return to your main purpose: YOU.

And we further challenge you to actually do it. It is indeed one thing to think about and to contemplate, but it is another to actually put the boots on and go.

MARK: I found it just recently, just the other day, found a single event in a day, that I understood to be purposeful. Serge and I went to a movie the other day and we ended up seeing something that I didn’t really want to see that night, but I knew that the Universe wanted me to see. I understood that, even long before I went in.

JOHN: The Universe?

MARK: Yes, the Universe being my Self and we went in and it was “Akeelah and the Bee,” a very powerful and empowering movie, but it also tied in very nicely to the Tarot reading that was given to me recently by Ellen, and I understood, coming out of that movie that yes, I had intended to see that movie. There was a purpose, there were messages for me.

JOHN: Beneficial?

MARK: Beneficial and just that one event was empowering for me for two days now. But imagine a whole day! I’m looking forward to this challenge.

JOHN: It might be nice to have a buddy on a day like that. Somebody who could remind you, because, I don’t know about you, but an hour can go by and I’m [John makes a sound of befuddlement].

MARK: Yeah.

KRIS: Indeed, if you can, it is an excellent addition to have a friend with which you can exchange that challenge. But if not, as many people might not be able to find a companion for this purpose, make it that you are your own companion. And do a reality check every once in a while. Purposefully check upon your purpose.

JOHN: (Laughs)

KRIS: Are you within your focus?

JOHN: I’m just thinking out loud here, Kris, but I have a little sports watch that I can set to chime on the hour, and I’m thinking that maybe not on the hour, but fourteen minutes after the hour, every hour, this thing goes, “beep, beep, beep,” and it just reminds me, “oh wait a minute, am I aligned with that challenge?” Is that a useful idea?

KRIS: Indeed you can.

MARK: I think another one for people without sports watches would be just to put an elastic band around your wrist, because periodically you’re going to play with it, and “Oh! Yeah, that’s right!” Just like the old string around the finger.

JOHN: Okay, good. That sounds like fun.

KRIS: Indeed then. After you have done this at least for one day, taken whatever notations and comparisons, allow yourself to freely ponder upon the significance of creating that kind of a deliberate day and its potential impact upon you. And see that it becomes embedded into your personality. It becomes a conscious, living part of you.

It becomes a part of your personality so that automatically you do not have to think about your purposeful day and the purpose of being who you are, but as it becomes who and what you are. As it is already, needing only you to consciously acknowledge it. Now what is the time?

MARK: 8:54.

KRIS: Then indeed, we will leave you to ponder the deliberateness of your lovely selves.

MARK AND JOHN: Thank you.

The Edges of the Mind Part 2

May 4, 2006

Channeled by Serge J. Grandbois and Transcribed by Ellen Gilbert (Kwaa’Ji)
Recorded in Toronto, Canada on May 07, 2006

Summary Roll Call: Serge, Mark, John, Duke, Sylvie, Michelle, Lucy, Lisa, Debbie, Tom, and Emmy

(7:44 PM)

KRIS: Now we are most glad to recognize your lovely selves, whether you be in this room or halfway across the world and we thank you all for your kind consideration. We trust that you are all relaxed and have your ears open! Now who can summarize the discussion of the last session that we had with you on many minds?

JOHN: I’ll take a stab at it. You introduced, rather than one mind and one ego, and one set of convictions, we have many, many unaccounted minds, and there was a wonderful phrase in there where the minds — if we’re not interfering too much — rise up exuberantly from the ground of something-or-other and we begin to understand the fact that we’ve got all these different minds, and if we set aside for a moment our concerns about the ego and identity, that we can have a lot of fun.

Toward the end of the session you introduced the idea of discernment and detachment — detachment meaning we don’t get too caught up in these things, and discernment meaning we can kind of tell where the next hyperlink is. And there was a lovely little ‘back and forth’ with Paul that was a kind of an example of how we might work with…the thing about minds as they work with imagery, emotional intensities, and memories.

KRIS: Indeed, that does cover some of the words and structures we comprised very nicely. Does anyone else have an observation or a memory?

MARK: Well, you just used the word structure and I think that’s one that should be brought up again because structure — what we were learning there — is how the consciousness uses emotional intensity to structure things as opposed to linear, alphabetical, numerical…that’s how we process and…..store….that’s not a good word, but –

KRIS: Indeed it IS a good word. You do store, catalogue, organize and file your conscious memories in a very linear, chronological order. You remember yesterday before you remember the day before. At the conscious level that is how you believe it is all laid out for you. However, at those deeper layers of emotional intensities, you may very well remember an event from five years past before you remember yesterday, depending upon your attachment, your ties, your emotional involvement with the old memories and how it still may fuel some of your drives.

And your entire life composition is organized along those very specific lines as opposed to a nicely organized, chronological, logical structure. And you are subjectively aware of every single inner event that you have carefully stored or catalogued in that vast warehouse. And in that organized structure, not one single thing is ever misplaced and it will serve to fuel your actions because they are all based upon groups or sets of beliefs or convictions that you have subscribed to at any given moment.

Your membership to certain sets of beliefs, whether it be victimhood, powerlessness, poverty of any kind, directs the orchestration of the events, the conditions and circumstances of your life and until you terminate your attachment to that membership or subscription, it will still continue to come to you.

Not unlike many magazine subscriptions indeed, that may find their way to your doorstep until you communicate your intent to the publisher that you no longer wish their magazine and you will then subscribe or acquire your membership to another kind and it will start to be delivered at a specific date.

And we believe the analogy is quite appropriate. But even though you canceled your membership or prescription, it does not mean that you eliminate it, it will still continue to be produced, but it will no longer have an effect upon YOU because it will not be delivered to your doorstep, so to speak. Does that make some sense?

(Yes)

EMMY: It does make a lot of sense! It is a very beautiful analogy.

KRIS: Now, as you are all aware to one degree or another, you have specific reasons for choosing the beliefs that you subscribe to. They are not thrust upon you, you request those subscriptions, that membership to those sets of convictions. And this is why we began to speak about detachment and discernment, and so as to be very clear about the meaning of those words, we ask Philip to read the dictionary’s definition.

MARK: “Detachment: The action, or process of detaching; separation; the dispatch of a body of troops or part of a fleet from the main body, ‘the part so dispatched’;
A permanently organized separate unit, usually smaller than a platoon and different in composition from normal units.
An indifference to worldly concerns; aloofness; freedom from bias or prejudice.

“Discernment: The quality of being able to grasp and comprehend what is obscure; ‘skill in discerning’, ‘an act of discerning’;
A power to see what is not evident to the average mind; appreciating art. Discrimination stresses the power to distinguish and select what is true, appropriate or excellent; Perception implies quick and often sympathetic discernment, as in ‘shades of a feeling.’”

Is that enough?

KRIS: Indeed, from our humble perspective, those two items can be quite useful tools when it comes to the creation of your own reality and wanting to learn how you go about on your daily creations. We have heard many different kinds of interpretations of detachment, many of which are often little more than giving oneself permission to sometimes even be crass and to display a cold indifference to the condition of other human beings as if it automatically puts one in a superior, self-righteous position, meaning “I am more spiritual and advanced than you because I couldn’t care less if you die because it is your creation and not mine.”

And though everyone has the right to ascribe to those particular perspectives, from our point of view it may indeed show a complete LACK of spiritual understanding or even a basic understanding of humanity. As well, it has another beautiful application when utilized properly.

As you are all well aware, due to your involvement in the events, conditions and situations you manifest on a daily basis that it is often difficult whilst in the throes of expressing yourselves based on your beliefs to actually notice that you are responding to your beliefs. And developing that beautiful tool of detachment may very well enable you to emotionally experience your moment as well as being able to quickly understand the very nature of your action whilst you are in the throes of being and expressing the moment. Does that make sense to you?

(Yes)

It is very easy for most people to be swept up in the moment and in the experience and there is nothing wrong in any sense of the word with being swept along, because that is what you are creating the moment for. But there are many occasions where a certain degree of emotional and sometimes even intellectual detachment from the processes themselves can prove most rewarding, especially when you are learning to understand how your own private beliefs are causal to your own private experience of reality. A certain aspect of witnessing yourself in the throes of being can be a most useful tool of perception, not unlike when you dream and you see yourself from a specific corner of the dream, acting out the scene before you. Does this sound familiar?

(Group chuckling)

EMMY: Yes, it does.

KRIS: Indeed. You see yourself watching yourself acting in the dream. Is that correct?

(Yes)

KRIS: Now then, here is the little trick: if you see yourself watching yourself acting out the dream, then obviously you automatically have a third perspective, correct?

(Yes)

And if you notice any dreams that you remember you will see that not only are you a point of observation, but you are observing that point of observation watching the events while still fully participating in the events in the dream. So you have three different perspectives. That very original perspective, which allows you to see the point of observation, is that quality, in a manner of speaking — that quality of detachment.

And it can be cultivated very practically on a daily conscious basis when you need it in order to perhaps even gauge the level of involvement in your actions as well as quickly being able from that vantage point of detachment to bring in sufficient discernment by which and with which you can have a much more rounded out and more complete understanding of all the factors involved as far as you and your abilities of reality creation are concerned, regardless of the situation.

Whether sleeping or awake you have access to these two tools which can be extremely useful to enhance your understanding, as we said, of the various factors, the subjective factors involved in the experience of your moment. Does this make sense to you?

EMMY: It makes a lot of sense.

KRIS: Now it would necessitate that you practice, make a point of playing with those concepts and ideas and seeing how they can be made practical and useful in many situations that may arise during your dreams or even your waking moments to give yourselves a foundation from which to function.

And this discernment can truly be practical in that if it is utilized properly you can quickly isolate and work your way through various layers of convictions or beliefs in such a manner that your answers, your keys, can quickly determine how and why you may have put yourself in a situation and perhaps even in a position you might find challenging or even stressful at times – when there is a tendency to feel overwhelmed and lost in the moment, as if you have lost your footing and are apparently swept away by the events as they cascade over you, where sometimes you even feel as if you have lost your grip on your situation. Does this make sense?

(Yes)

Discernment, as it is defined, enables you to see the finer details, that which is apparently hidden from primary view. It allows you to see and understand the behind the scenes actions you have set up to create the situations and conditions you find yourself in now, whatever that may be for you. Furthermore, all of these tools and many others we have shared, Ask Why, the Triple ‘A’ and others –

MARK: [Practice of] Perspectives.

KRIS: — Are often utilized only when you find yourselves banging your pretty nose on a closed door, correct?

(Yes)

And these tools can be most useful when used in those situations, but our challenge to each and every one of you is to ALSO apply the same tools — observations, perspectives, etc. — when situations flow naturally and unimpeded through you to create delightful days. Specifically to observe what you were doing, what you go through during those worry-free and trouble-free experiences so that you observe your patterns, so to speak; when you create those delightful events, and establish a foundation in a manner of speaking, [creating] a literal catalog of events and situations and circumstances that naturally enhance the flow of your creation so that you can make an esteemed observation and utilize those delightful inner events whenever you find yourself against an inner brick wall. So that you have a literal reservoir of powerful, free-flowing conditions that you can pull from, that you can extract from and utilize to make your way through some of your most challenging situations. Does this also make sense?

(Yes)

Utilizing an old analogy: imagine for a moment that you decide to paint the floor in one of the rooms in your home, and if you are like many people, you begin at the door, only to realize that you have just painted yourselves in a corner! Is that not what often happens? … Metaphorically speaking.

(Oh yes!)

From our perspective, then, having a reservoir of those free-flowing events in your awareness enables you to paint an exit door very quickly so that you do not have to wait for the paint to dry, correct?

(Yes)

These two simple words, often neglected, can have a powerful impact in the manner in which you can enhance your lovely creations. However, it is that you put them to good use. But we simply encourage you to make use of them and as you do so, you will notice something most peculiar indeed; THAT YOUR INTELLIGENCE LITERALLY BECOMES ENHANCED.

Now we are not saying that you will all become Einsteins, but by paying attention to BOTH sides of the creation coin, you very quickly round out your personalities and enhance your intelligence … or we should say, your intelligences, because each set of observations that you make on both sides of that creation coin, the delightful unimpeded flow of creation as well as the more challenging creations activate fields of neurons in the brain and open gateways to other intelligences, higher intelligences, your own higher intellect which is composed of a merry blend of intuition, logic, intellect, imagination, rationale, but in an order that is far more rounded out and psychologically wholesome than the manner in which you usually compartmentalize all of those different points of view. Most of you are familiar with remote control televisions, correct?

(Yes)

Most of you are accustomed to holding your remote and switching the telly on and then going through the channels one at a time because you can rarely see more than one channel at any given time through the television set unless you have an enhanced picture-in-picture model, but still that gives you little more than two. And one has to be in the foreground and one in the background, correct?

(Right)

By working with the tools that we have shared with you and learning how to literally awaken your higher intellect in that manner, it becomes as if you have before you dozens of television screens with a multi-tracking remote, and on each television screen you can watch a different program on each screen all at once and can absorb each program simultaneously. Does that make sense to you?

(Yes)

This allows you to literally draw more understanding than the normal behavior of focusing on only one program at any given time, especially when the tendency is to use any of these tools only when you find you are up against a particularly challenging situation and the rest of the time you pay very little attention which is what often gets you in a pickle in the first place.

And our suggestion of also utilizing tools such as Practice of Perspectives, Triple ‘A’, Ask Why and others, also whilst you are having wonderful, meaningful, free-flowing situations can greatly tip the scale, as it were, towards providing you with a database of extremely useful information about your own thought patterns, your emotional motivational patterns, etc., bringing them to the workshop, as it were, the workshop of your mind. Tools that can make the job much easier, and it is relatively simple. Do you follow?

(Yes)
KRIS: Now what is the time?

MARK: 8:24.

KRIS: Then we suggest a small break so that you may discuss some of this amongst yourselves.

(Break begins at 8:24 PM.)

EMMY: I’ve had many dreams about different perspectives over the last year where there are suddenly several different perspectives at once.

MARK: I’ve had them too. One of them is well documented on newworldview where you are able to watch yourself watching yourself and that is really a change of perspectives.

EMMY: I was also reminded of an exercise I did with clients in drama therapy where people wrote down an experience they had in a letter to themselves so they would write out, “Hey there Emmy, last week I did this, and this and this,” and then they would give the letter to another group member who would play it out — the letter that they received — so they watched somebody else play them playing that scene, and then they would look at the scene and think of many different ways to respond to that situation.

But it was very fascinating to see people watching “themselves” so to say — watching an experience they had that last week. Also another thing we would do was: somebody would write down four very important people according to them, and then I would invent this show — a television show — where they were the guests, and I was the host and they would play the people who they wrote down — for instance, their father — and I would interview their “father” about themselves so that they could be aware of what they thought their father thought.

MARK: That’s similar to the ‘Imagination Party.’

EMMY: Yeah! And it really opens up a lot of things when you do it in such a playful way.

MARK: Yeah, and that’s really a nice trick too, to pretend to be somebody else — it’s an interesting tool — and yeah, that’s detachment.

EMMY: Yes indeed, and that’s also a tool we utilize in drama therapy very much. That’s the thing you do, you invent –

MARK: I think it’s really important, too, what he was saying tonight, that we always use these tools when we’re up against a brick wall, when we’re upset about something, but we never stop to use these tools when we’re happy and I realize that when we’re up against a brick wall thinking, “Oh, what did I do to create this? What have I been concentrating on?” If you do that when you’re happy, and you realize what causes you to be happy, you can make yourself happy when you’re not.

EMMY: Indeed, it’s a very important thing he said there. It reminds me of what a teacher once said to me once: she said, “Well if you do it in sections, instead of looking at what you did wrong, look at the moments that went very well, and ask yourself how it came to be that it went so well” That is far more interesting to look at instead of focusing on the things that went wrong. That last perspective is often utilized or used in schools, for instance.

MICHELLE: If you go with the flow….sometimes you have to not think — getting your mind off the hamster wheel, by NOT thinking.

MARK: Yeah, overly concentrating or focusing on something that’s not going to get you anywhere is not going to help you.

EMMY: I’m really going to try to — like the last couple of weeks went so extremely well with all the situations I’m finding out and meeting people that were very important to my new life in Barcelona — and I will try to look at that this week. What I did that it went this well!

MARK: I know! That’s amazing.

EMMY: It was really unbelievable! I was walking down the street and I was making this joke to Gert-Jan, I was saying, “Wouldn’t it be nice to meet deaf people now, so I could ask them where I could get a sign language course. But I was making a joke, not believing I would meet [any deaf people], and two minutes later, I entered this supermarket and I had to wait for awhile because I had a big suitcase, then there were these two deaf people approaching (Laughs) and I talked to them and they gave me this address! And I went to that address and now I have this course in September and they also said they would help me to find a job at that office they gave me the address from, and it all happened when I was ONLY IN BARCELONA FOR THIRTY MINUTES.

MARK: That’s phenomenal!

EMMY: It’s really amazing.

TOM: So has anyone experienced the multiple intelligences?

SERGE: (Jokingly) Only when I’m not around!

EMMY: Well, I had multiple views in one dream — in many dreams, but one in particular where I was observing this woman who was channeling and I could watch myself observing her and also I was able to hear what she was channeling about and at the same time I could “hear” what she was thinking. And she was thinking about me! (Laughs) Which is pretty complex!

And there was this book on the table and she thought that I, as Emmy, was not ready to read that book, and then I thought, “Well, maybe YOU are not able to read it!” So there were so many things going on simultaneously; so I had my own perspectives…and that perspective of me observing myself observing HER and being within her thinking and channeling…so there were five perspectives.

And I also had dreams where I am also another focus of mine and I am able to notice what they are thinking, meanwhile being conscious, but I as Emmy also observing the situation from the inside, do you understand what I mean? Because it’s pretty late! [Note: Emmy is in the Netherlands and it is probably after 2:00 am her time]

MARK: (As Kris returns) Hang on, Kids!

(Break ends at 8:35 PM)

KRIS: Now we trust that you have all had LIVELY discussions! Does anyone have a question on what we delivered?

DUKE: Yes, I do. We choose our belief system before we arrive here. What form of it is our free will in the present moment?

KRIS: Indeed you do choose all of the various beliefs that you entertain or subscribe to, etc. and these beliefs fuel your actions. Without them you would literally be in a limbo-like state, in neutral. The point is what you do with the beliefs, that you CHOOSE and of what use you make of them. And at any moment point you ALWAYS exercise ONE HUNDRED PERCENT FREE WILL BY CHOICE. You always choose your actions based upon the sets of beliefs that you adhere to. Does that make some sense to you?

DUKE: It does make some sense, yes.

KRIS: Many people do feel as if they have no choice. They did or do what they did or do because they “have no other choice”. But that very statement, by the very fact that they utilize the word “choice” implies that they decided upon one set of actions over many others; a type of introspection that is done extremely rapidly to sort out from various potential situations and then decide which action you want, and what outcome you want from that action.

And the outcome is what you want regardless of any so-called extenuating circumstances. ALWAYS, YOUR END RESULT IS WHAT YOU CHOSE, WHAT YOU WANT. And to get there, there are thus many different roads, many choices that can be taken. And our previous discussion of utilizing discernment and detachment can literally help you become more consciously aware of the process of choice or choosing, thus enhancing the outcome.

And you can play with the topic by revising various actions you have taken in the past and get to the moment where you made your decision and from there review with the individual, which is yourself that made that decision, what other kinds of choices might have been available that could have brought the same or a different outcome, but perhaps, as in some cases, in a less challenging and sometimes even less traumatizing manner.

And observe the thought processes and the acts of choosing of that individual that you were at that moment. Access his or her mind. Review the various factors and then become an explorer. Become daring and bold and imagine what the outcome would have been like had this other choice or decision been acted upon, or this other one, or yet another, and follow through in your mind what the events and the conditions might have been like had THEY unfolded as a result of their being the chosen actions as opposed to another.

And use again many of the tools we have given including discernment and detachment and pay attention and see what you might benefit from. How a potential situation might actually prove useful and practical in your own present concerns, and bring this back with you without negating any of the choices you will have made, but adding this to your repertoire, to your database of information. And this too may even be considered one of your choices. Does that make sense?

DUKE: Yes.

KRIS: Are there other questions?

TOM: Yes, I have one.

KRIS: Indeed.

TOM: If there are a variety of beliefs that perhaps create a certain event, are we using this tool to sort of shift the focus of this energy to that variety of beliefs to somehow alter the event so maybe it’s not as traumatizing?

KRIS: Let us be very clear: though the beliefs in some ways are causal to the events, circumstances and conditions of your life, the key factor is not beliefs, but the choices you make when and where you exercise your free will. That becomes the most potent of all the tools and perspectives at your disposal.

And yes, it is possible to alter the flow of events and circumstances by yet again making other choices. That is always, pardon the pun, your choice. You can choose to make one choice or another and herein is a delicious irony: that when you choose a set of actions, you are not locked into a contract, as if fated to see this through to its bitter end, unless you choose this as well as part of your own game plan. Does this make sense?

TOM: Yes.

KRIS: As we have said in the past, within the specific sphere of activities you have collectively chosen to implement specific sets of physics, as it were. And in this reality, it will still be some time before pigs can fly, so you have to be practical in a manner of speaking, about the kinds of things and outcomes you wish to choose. Do you follow? You may choose to manifest a mountain of gold in your backyard, the choice is yours to make, but we would advise that you do not hold your breath overly long, Correct?

TOM: Yes.

KRIS: You can always transplant Chinese money trees and see if that alters your situation! Now all kidding aside, one of the greatest choices that you can select is to understand that your physical reality is truly a wonderful game plan and not take yourselves overly serious, otherwise it takes the wind out of the sails, and the fun out of it and you become rather morose. You act, then, as if you are despairing, which is entirely your choice. There are other ways to be than despairing. Do you have other lovely questions?

JOHN: I have a question, Kris, if I may. I was quite intrigued by the little exercise you did verbally with Paul in the first half of this session and you talked about following the emotional intensity, going for a particular memory or image or what have you, and then allowing that to follow its own randomness, I think was the term that you used, and there was a link to another event — this is the discernment – where you say, “Oh this is connected to something, and something else is connected.”

Then you said now if you pull a thread through these events as you laid them out, it creates a different feeling-tone, and then you said something about….you take one memory and you make it larger and you super-impose it over several other memories…I found that to be very interesting….uh…is there more of that, or is that a useful thing to think about?

KRIS: There are many different varieties of such applications and these can all be explored at one point or another for very unique outcomes. For instance, if we say the word, “apple pie,” what comes to your mind?

JOHN: Apple pie….well, I think about my mother and my childhood. Hot apple pie!

KRIS: What? No vanilla ice cream?

JOHN: That’s exactly where I was going with it! (Laughs)

KRIS: Indeed! And then, from your mother there is?

JOHN: From my mother there is all mothers….all mothers and all apples and all children and what a lovely, lovely thing that is.

KRIS: If you stick with the thread of your mother, what other events may come?

JOHN: Oh, suddenly I recall a time when my mother made us cookies and she thought that they were a failure and she threw them in the garbage and we kids — there were six kids in the family — we snuck around and pulled them out of the garbage later, because they didn’t look good, but they tasted good.

KRIS: Indeed, to a young boy, garbage cookies are superior to all forms, as is garbage cake!

JOHN: (Laughing) Ah, yes! Exactly!

KRIS: And from cookies and friends, what do you get?

JOHN: From cookies….oh, I was just thinking that in my present time frame, I never, ever make cookies and I’m thinking, “Hmmmm…I’d like to make a batch of cookies.” My mother has passed away, so I might even raise a cookie to her in homage.

KRIS: Indeed, now if you allowed more imagery, what would come to mind? Free flow.

JOHN: Ummm…

KRIS: You might perhaps think of cookies you see at yard sales and baked goods sales…

JOHN: Right….

KRIS: Perhaps seeing someone else buy them, which might remind you of a friend who used to enjoy cookies which might remind you of so many other things?

JOHN: Yeah, this is what I love, is the jumping from one to the next, and it’s discernment that allows us to make those jumps, is that deal…or they just rise?

KRIS: They will rise naturally, but it is for you to observe them.

MICHELLE: How do you do detachment?

JOHN: Well, if I may, detachment is to not get too emotionally overwrought when something comes up that you know….is an anti. Just sort of say, “Well, okay, that’s just one link in the chain, and now what is the next link, as opposed to getting lost in the (inaudible word).

KRIS: The idea of utilizing this free association with those kinds of emotional intensities is to become aware of the vast repertoire, again, of knowledge that you do keep at those deeper subjective layers of awareness and from THOSE layers rises your conscious self — ALL ONE SELF — but striated, organized, differently. And the foundations of your physical focus reality is laid upon this deeper bed of emotional intensities, just as the surface mantle of the planet rests upon tectonic plates that rest upon many pockets of molten magma that floats in specific directions, correct?

JOHN: Right.

KRIS: So you could say that this deeper layer of subjective awareness is always in movement. It is never static. Always is in a state of action.

JOHN: Hmm. Well, I actually tried this technique, this free flow of association earlier today around the issue of — actually I did it with my teeth! (Chuckling) — I’ve been troubled a little bit with my teeth at some level so I did this association with my teeth. What I was trying to get to was the place where you take….well, what I found was [that] there are a number of associations around teeth.

Some of them were positive, some of them were negative [and] they were all various gradations of intensity. They all came up in their own time. What I wanted to do was to find an incident or a memory around the teeth that encompassed that I was happy with now in my present situation and I could make that into a bigger box and put the other memories and associations into the context of that one. Is that…I might have….is that right?

KRIS: It is YOUR creation and you can play with it, since they are YOUR building blocks.

JOHN: So, if I come up with…I mean I have a feeling — it was kind of fun — I have a feeling that this might actually bear some fruit!

KRIS: Indeed, another area of practical usefulness is, again, when your creations APPEAR to have run away from you and overwhelmed you and in such situations many people fret and pace back and forth. “What beliefs are involved?!?”.” What kind of beliefs are at work here?!” And they would search high and low and question everything; “Is this the belief?”.” Is that the belief?”

JOHN: Oh, I hear ya!

KRIS: And yes, if they would but take a moment and detach themselves from their concern and worry and actually pay attention to the very thoughts that they will automatically dismiss, they will see that from the depths of their own subjective mind, the answers are already rising, bubbling to the surface in a joyous effervescent manner to give the very answers, but because there is incessant chatter at times….

JOHN: Well, it’s a little hard to hear the answer if you’re screaming, “I can’t hear the answer!”

KRIS: Indeed, thus utilizing discernment and detachment, you can notice then the imagery and emotions that come attached with the images and you will see that the answer you sought was not structured in the way you expect it, but it is structured along the lines of emotional intensities and it WILL give you the “A-ha!”, the light bulb effect where you can say to yourself, (snaps fingers) “I know!” in half the time it would take when you utilize conscious rational manners and thought patterns to seek out that which is not laid out in such a fashion.

JOHN: That’s great. Thank you.

MICHELLE: That just answered my whole “thing” from the last three days!

JOHN: Oh, good!

SYLVIE: From our last session of last week — and you’re absolutely right, what you’re saying — it is structured by our emotions.

KRIS: Indeed.

SYLVIE: It is exactly our thoughts, our belief systems and our emotions that are attached to them.

KRIS: And exactly correct that the emotions will REVEAL the beliefs you subscribe to.

MICHELLE: Or mask them.

KRIS: Indeed not.

MARK: Defeats the purpose.

MICHELLE: No, but if you get so –

KRIS: You may mask them by denying your involvement with your own reality, but it’s your knowledge that you do create the situation in one way or another. Whether you understand the principle completely or not is irrelevant, but once you acknowledge that it leads to the opening of the doors in exactly the same way that you do not have to be a licensed grade ‘A’ mechanic in order to drive the car from point A to point B.

You do not have to understand ALL of the mechanics of reality creation to at least recognize that in spite of all appearances, no one is a victim of events or conditions or situations. You are not a victim in any way, shape or form, but rather the author of that event. Now, let us explore HOW you became the author of that event.

What did you unleash from within yourself but GREAT energies, but GREAT exuberant creativity? Did you not notice you released, regardless of the outcome? And by allowing that free-flowing you will notice the emotional intensities lead you bang on to the beliefs you hold that fueled the situation. Does that make some sense?

TORONTO GROUP: Yes. Yes, absolutely.

KRIS: As well as to our telephone audience?

TELECONFERENCE GROUP: Yes, it does.

KRIS: Any other lovely questions? See what questions do? Or is it that the answers needed a question so that they can unfold themselves?

DUKE: Is it fair to say belief creates biology?

KRIS: Your beliefs create everything in your reality, including your biological self. You believe in your capacity to express yourself as a human being. You desire that expression, thus that choice — pre-birth choice — is an outcome. Your physical birth and your entry point into the flow of historical time and space, so that for a brief moment you walk those few miles that you call your life.

And that beautiful game plan that you have carefully designed in an open-ended manner so that you can also have fun with the building blocks of reality creation, just as a child plays with his little blocks and learns to make words, and structures and pyramids and squares and so on. And then re-arranges the entire structure, or knocks them down and then re-creates something new. Does that make sense to you?

DUKE: Yes.

KRIS: Now what is the time?

MARK: 9:08.

KRIS: Indeed, any other questions?

TOM: I have a question. What you’re saying, that we need to spend time making this part of our life working with feeling-tones and not really focusing exactly on the mechanics behind it. I think what I’m getting is that before we can ask more questions on it, we need to experience it firsthand?

KRIS: You can indeed play with the topic and make your own observations. The point is that you discover what you are all about as lovely beings. You are not as some institutions like to proclaim: you are not filled with murderous intent and iniquity and flaws. These are the results of the game plans you choose as a race to act upon. These are the surface-most representations of the beliefs you focus upon.

But beneath that, underneath the veneer are beings of tremendous creative potential, with great loving intent, and perhaps these observations will assist you in a humble manner to recognize that you are indeed these lovely beings we have such respect for and admiration. And why we are drawn to interact with you and your species, even though we have no need. But we also do so out of choice, out of desire.

Now it is for YOU to instill within yourselves and recognize the loveliness within — not so that you can live up to OUR expectations — but that so you can live up to YOUR POTENTIALS. And if we ask anything of you and your race, it is that you act and live up to the potentials of your consciousness. That, dear friends, is a sweet deal, indeed! And with that, we will leave you to ponder what that potential is, and may that potential be dreamt up in your dreams and in your thoughts in any manner possible. And do have a pleasant week.

MARK: 9:13.

(Not the End 9:13 PM)

JOHN: That was great! Serge?

SERGE: I caught the tail end of that, so I would have to say now we’re all potentialized?

(Laughter)

MARK: Deal or no deal?

(Laughter)

LISA: Deal!

JOHN: Well, guess who wins big time!

MARK: It’s interesting listening to him talk about his respect for us, because I reverse that all the time, that I have such respect for him as well as my own Essence, Philip that when to live up the potential of your consciousness — to live up to that potential of what I respect — just brings it all home.

JOHN: Yes.

EMMY: I really like how he put it in that perspective, turning it around in a way. It opens up a lot of — well, a different angle. It was very beneficial, I think.

LISA: (Mostly inaudible, but the gist I believe, was a comment on Tom’s question being a good one in that Kris came back with such an encouraging an uplifting comment on our human race.)

TOM: I usually don’t have good questions when I’m live, I usually get them when I’m dreaming or laying awake at night. I spend a lot of time thinking about it and then write them down and that gives me good questions. And sometimes on my feet, I’m thinking somewhere else….(chuckles)…but I do have a lot of questions about the multiple intelligences and how all that works and I hope to cover that with him in the future in a personal session, to get more….I guess more into the physics of that.

Right now I have a lot of questions about the physics, but he’s really telling us “Dip your toe in the water and try some of this and start working with those images every day,” because it’s not a THING that you’re trying to find with this belief, it’s the FEELING-TONES that lead you there. It’s a very powerful tool to make things happen and change your life. He’s given us two very powerful tools now that….well, this just blows me away compared to everything we’ve had so far –

MARK: Oh, he’s back!….9:17, he’s back.

KRIS: (In a tone of mock-disbelief) Did we hear correctly in that you are thinking about dipping your toe in the water?!?

TOM: (Laughing) You did.

KRIS: YOUR TOE?!? WHILST WE ARE TRYING TO DROWN YOU IN IT!

(Group laughter)

KRIS: (Still in that hilarious tone – I can almost see Kris throwing up his hands in the air) You are dipping your toe in it! (Rolling thunder voice:) IF WE COULD, WE WOULD FLOOD THE EARTH WITH THAT POTENTIAL AWARENESS!! (Now I can just see him shaking his head in mock-despair) And you are willing to dip your TOE in it!

(Group is cracking up now)

KRIS: Hence we are most grateful that you are willing!

MARK: It better be your BIG toe!

KRIS: At least, be not afraid to DIVE into the waters of your consciousness. Not only will you not drown, but you will find that you can do more than simply survive, you can try and your experiences of reality will be forever changed because YOUR reality will be transformed accordingly. You HOLD ON very dearly to your beliefs as if they define you! More specifically your beliefs of FEAR. You are AFRAID to express the authority of your being! You fear the power of who you are! You fear the power of your thoughts!

We are encouraging you…nay…we are urging you to let go of the fear and EMBRACE who and what you are. EMBRACE the great sweep of your being! That exuberance that keeps the stars where they are, the planets where they are, that brings the water to your lips, sustains you in life because it is your creation. Use all of the tools we share with you for one thing: recognize that it is time to let go of your fears and jump out of the nest! SPREAD YOUR WINGS!

You will not fall to your death! You will not plunge to your annihilation, but instead, the potential of consciousness WILL automatically take over as the eaglet’s wings spread to catch the drift, the updraft, and, instead of plummeting, it rises above the clouds, soaring as the eagle that it is! That is YOUR potential of consciousness.

Now, what was it you were saying about your TOE?

(Group laughter)

TOM: (Laughing) Ohhh…that’s okay.

KRIS: Indeed. At least you can all (inaudible words) sense of well-being. Enjoy it! And we will leave you to your giggles and laughter. AND TOO, how high YOU decide you want to fly! And a good night ALL my lovely eagles!
