This page explores some of the many questions Serge has been asked over the years concerning his speaking for Kris. If you have other questions, please feel free to email us. Your questions and the answers provided may very well make it to this page.
QUESTIONS
Q1: I am curious about the trance phenomenon in personal terms.
Q2: Can you do it standing, sitting or lying down?
Q3: Do you need peace and quiet about you or are you indifferent to distractions?
Q4: How do you mentally prepare for it?
Q5: Once in trance, do you have any “Serge awareness” as an observer or whatever?
Q6: Do you typically feel rested after coming out of trance or does the process exhaust you?
Q7: What is the longest you have ever remained?
Q8: If the need or requirement existed, could you do trance work several hours a day like Cayce used to do?
Q9: Has Kris ever made a ‘mission statement’ like Seth or Elias? Elias, in particular, is very specific about his reasons for visiting planet earth. He is responding to our request. His mission is to help us prepare for the “shift” and to impart information with the least amount of distortion.
Q10: Do you ever feel Kris ‘being around’ in your ‘normal’ awake hours?
Q11: Do you sometimes experience spontaneous sessions where he just takes over?
Q12: Do you have a strong sense of “being Serge” in your normal waking hours? What I mean by that is I never forget ‘who I am’ under any circumstances and I think most people are like that but then maybe not. I’ve been very sick, very drunk, very tired, very calm, very stressed. I have regained consciousness after being struck by a car, after surgery etc. but I never ever lose that sense of me even when I wish I could. Are you like that always except when Kris usurps your mind and body?
Q13: Do you ever have disagreements with Kris?
Q14: Do you consult him frequently for advice and counsel? Is he helpful or does he typically say something profound but somewhat unhelpful like Elias...“It’s your choice” kind of response?
Q15: To me, it often seemed that Jane felt inferior to Seth and felt a strong need to be her own person, write her own books, etc.
Q16: I have the impression that she was never totally comfortable doing what she did (i.e. being a medium for Seth). She seemed to be in perpetual conflict and to have serious unresolved issues of self esteem, religious conflict, health, etc. I don’t get that impression about you. You come across as more comfortable in your role than either Jane or Mary. Of course, that is only my impression. Is it reasonably accurate, if you care to comment?
Q17: Anyhow...curious minds want to know! Of course, curious minds don’t necessarily need to know so you can tell them to get stuffed if so inclined.
ANSWERS
Q1: I am curious about the trance phenomenon in personal terms.
Are you more or less able to do it at will?
A: More or less yes, I can do it at will. However, its not like flipping a light switch on/off. When I set up an appointment for someone to have a private session with Kris, there is an understanding he will be there and he always is.
For myself personally I don’t just flip in and out of trance willy-nilly. It doesn’t work that way. Just like Kris always (ALWAYS) asks before the exchange, similarly he’s not like a genie that will show up when I rub the magic lamp. I have to ask as well. There is a certain level of intent and choice at play here. Perhaps like when a couple in a relationship want to get intimate. Neither imposes or forces himself/herself on the other. There are certain rules, even if they are unspoken, and they exist nonetheless. Certain types of intents and choices are in place safeguarding the integrity of the relationship.
Also, Kris is not obliged to pursue discussions with people. He has free reign from the moment he ‘enters’ the scene so to speak, and is entirely free to evolve the discussion as he sees fit, while answering people’s questions.
There have been times when Kris took his sweet time to show up, and there have been times when I am preparing for a long session and on at least two occasions back in the late '80s, early 90s however, Kris ended the session barely 10 or 15 minutes into it. One of those occasions felt really bizarre.
The client was a therapist of some kind, and her view of 'using' a medium turned out of be quite sour. She insisted that a 'real' medium would be able to tell her that on Friday May 12, 2006, noon time on the corner of Yonge and Bloor in Toronto, she should be told who she is going to meet and what they will talk about and how the day will unfold. Her whole concept of these sessions consisted of nothing else but these types of inquiries. Kris doesn't like to be taken for a gypsy fortune teller. Even at his request to move beyond those attitudes she insisted he answer her on her terms only and not try to 'teach' her anything. So, he kindly told her that he was giving her my copy of Nature of Personal Reality (how cavalier of him) and read it, and to leave and not to contact him again for several years.
A friend of hers had seen Kris a few times before and was quite happy to refer this person for a session too and she was also present to the session. Boy did she feel bad. It took me a while to comfort her as she felt so bad and sort of humiliated that her friend had abused this opportunity that way, I don't think she spoke to her for a long time after.
Q2: Can you do it standing, sitting or lying down?
A: When I started doing trance, it was in the Edgar Cayce style, often called the sleeping or deep or laying down trance. I did that for about 1.5 to 2 years before Kris came on the scene. Its only in the last several years that Kris explained that initially, he could only approach me with the references I had at my disposal, and the only reference I had then was Edgar Cayce, having read all his works as early as when I was about 14 or 15 years of age and knew then and there I was to do this stuff too.
So, he used what was first familiar to me and took the role of the deep or sleeping trance persona till such a time as he could then wean me towards what is called the animated trance in certain circles. I didn't know what it was, only that this development provided me with a lot more freedom of motion in some way and there seemed to be so much more energy available.
I had a series of dreams that eventually led my deciding to voice for this Chris personality I was now communicating with in the dream states. I initially spelled his name Chris, because in the dreams I would sometimes see the energy as female and sometimes as male and sometimes in the same dream it would change. The initial name I got was Christina or Christine, but when the genders changed I just cut it to Chris for short.
One time in the groups of people that would come to my house, a lady said: "Oh, it sounds so much like Our Lord Jesus Christ speaking". I was taken aback. First, how would she know what a mythical being sounds like, and secondly, not wanting to be stuck with that kind of label, I changed the spelling to Kris, which I am told is more a Scandinavian way of spelling it. It stayed to this day.
With Kris, I am able to sit in my rocking chair, sometimes walk about the room, and two summers ago we had a truly interesting development in this way as well. On a warm summer evening walk Mark and I were musing about all this metaphysical stuff, and suddenly, "ding dong". My Inner bell rings. That’s Kris’ way of letting me know he wants to share with Mark. I was puzzled, as it was dark outside we were walking back from a MultiPlex Cinema from seeing a movie, about an hour and a half from Mark's place (I used to live downtown).
It was past 9 PM and there were not a lot of people milling about and traffic was quite slow. So, I told Mark I have never done this, but I am willing to let Kris come through as we are walking about and see what happens. Well, I stopped for a minute, went 'inside' so to speak, into that place where he and I exchange, and there was Kris talking with Mark. Funny thing is that we were in a part of Toronto I had never been in before, and as we were walking, Kris would talk and also tell Mark to turn here, there and here and so on. You know what, we got to Mark's place in less than an hour, without any red lights or nearly none, as if Kris knew the way all along.
Kris also explained later on during another walk I think that he enjoys those walks, because my consciousness is engaged differently (as in marginally occupied with the sidewalk and stuff - a slightly different 'holding pattern') and he bypasses into a different engagement or exchange with me and therefore it gives him the chance to broach even deeper topics with Mark than normally. It’s usually during those walks where Kris will get into Quantum Physics and the dynamics of Consciousness creation, Quantum Particles, Universe manifestation, truly ancient history such as when there were two moons orbiting the planet and travels to other planets and stars over 400 million years ago. He also gave Mark a truly sweet way to tap into other focus or reincarnational selves using the Moon as a focal point.
We are truly looking forward to the walks resuming soon. AND we will make sure this summer to ALWAYS have the recorder with us. The last time, which was likely the most interesting of conversations to date, we had forgotten the recorder and Kris ribbed us for it. I think he purposefully talked about amazing things to teach us this little lesson on that night.
Q3: Do you need peace and quiet about you or are you indifferent to distractions?
A: When I was doing the sleeping trance style, yes it is part of the ritual; lots of deep quiet and tranquility are almost absolutes. It’s part of the drama. However, with Kris, this is not needed. I have talked for Kris in busy restaurants, cars, planes, as well as the relative quiet of my living room and while out for an evening stroll. Though, there are times when my living room is anything but quiet. In fact the very first TWO times I voiced for Kris were far from quiet.
When I decided that this one night was going to be the one where I would voice Kris, I was living in a small apartment building where the fire alarm was right over the apartment door, which was part of the living room. It was a very hot summer evening and the windows were also open. As I decide to just plunge into this, whatever that means, suddenly the fire alarms go off, soon followed by the fire tuck alarms converging on the building. The noise was unbelievable!!
Yet, Kris managed to drown it all out. As soon as I slipped into the trance, the noises all disappeared. And you know what, the second time I decided to give my voice over to Kris a couple of night later... exactly the same thing happened. Fire alarms go off, fire trucks swarm the building, windows open... and Kris manages to hold the trance and drown out the noise. I figured that after this, I could probably go into trance with a bomb going off next to me and it would 'take'.
Q4: How do you mentally prepare for it?
A: I have been doing this for SO long now (nearly 24-25 years) that I barely know how to answer. That’s ‘more’ than second nature for me, and if you figure, I will be 49 on May 29, it means I have been doing trance work for almost half my life already!
Now, I do have some Inner or mental prep yes, a place of sorts where I go to, without necessarily going anywhere in those terms. It’s like stepping back in a way, a definite ‘holding’ of my consciousness that is very different than when I am just me, which requires no holding. This holding, though strange sounding, is a very subjective thing. Almost like when a diver gets to the edge of the diving board, readying himself for his jump really.
Then, there is like one or sometimes many openings I can choose to through, depending what Kris will develop during the evening, or discussion. There are times when I feel several potential lines of development before me and I know then that Kris will probably tap into different topics this time.
There are times when it is different. Sometimes I’ll feel like an inner acceleration, a ‘quickening’ of consciousness deep on some unconscious level and I know there is a ‘tide’ coming in and the sweet current will carry me to some far shore. I just let is happen.
Q5: Once in trance, do you have any “Serge awareness” as an observer or whatever?
A: Within moments after taking the ‘dive’ as described above, all sense of ‘me’ as I know myself dissipates. That’s about the best way I can describe it. Its not as if I ever feel suppressed or pushed away or trampled upon. Its more like the ‘me’ I usually am under regular circumstances is now in the drivers seat. When I exchange with Kris, I let him take the wheel while I take the back seat, becoming a passenger while he chauffeurs me for a while.
Sometimes I feel like I am surrounded by such loving energies I sort of fall asleep inside, having a vague notion that something may be happening, though I am totally unconcerned by it in any way shape or form.
There are different notions from time to time. I usually recall from absolutely nothing to tidbits, depending. I have experienced for example where I may be dealing with a specific challenge in my daily life, and lo and behold, someone comes to talk with Kris and wouldn’t you know it, they have exactly the same type of challenge in their life too.
On such occasions, I will have recall of what Kris offers the person as answers, because they can apply to me as well. He’ll often ask the person if the can discuss as much as they are comfortable with me afterwards, which will trigger the answers into my memory banks.
Other times, I’ll feel like my consciousness is being funneled up and away, though this is less often.
Early last fall, when we opened up to another source Kris introduced us to, the Netjer, the experience was different again. This communication was like a return to the sleeping or laying down trance I used to do so many years ago. Kris instructed Mark on a particular induction sequence, and the ‘taking off’ platform was similar to falling into a deep sleep, but immediately mixed with a combination projection of consciousness AND lucid dream, but with subtle differences.
I am not interacting with any specific dream-like elements as in a regular lucid dream, but more of a projection INTO the deeper type of dream-like environment… which for all intents and purposes is something of a cross between Framework 3 and 4, or Regional Area 3 and 4, or to use Kris’ terms, Layer 3 and 4. Would that make it Layer 3.5, 3.25, or 3.75 ???
When I spoke for Netjer, which is not a singular individuality in our regular sense of the word, my voice didn’t change as dramatically as when I speak for Kris, but keep in mind we only did it three or four times. The voice seemed more of my regular voice, but still with an inflection that seemed somewhat tinny and with a bit of a reverberation, as if coming from very far away. Sometimes when Netjer spoke, the words would flow rapidly and sometimes the next answer was delivered rather slowly. I guess those long distance connections are not all ironed out.
Q6: Do you typically feel rested after coming out of trance or does the process exhaust you?
A: Very rarely have I ever felt drained or tired after a session. Kris explained back in 1987 that when we have sessions, there are energetic benefits we don’t immediately recognize. That goes for me, as well as for anyone in the room. He compared it to having a plant or plants soaking up the energy of a Grow Light during the long winter months.
I have gone into trance when I was starting a cold for instance, and instead of being sick for days, it can be gone the next day. I’ve even seen myself go into trance while full blown into a cold of something, and by the end of the session, all symptoms have gone.
For instance, after this fiasco at the hospital now almost two weeks ago where I fell into a coma for 24 hours as well as suffering bronchial arrest, we had a very brief session the day after I came home from the hospital. I was surprised at the level of energy Kris literally pumped into the living room and into both Mark and I. Though I was still pretty weak, suddenly the intensity and vitality of Kris’ energies flowed and flooded the living room in ways a have rarely experience.
If you get the read the transcript which is in the forum, you’ll notice a part where Kris says he’s directing energies our way. Well, at that point the voice increased in volume and character, Kris using it as the means to direct a powerful shot of healing energies into the living room and into both mark and I. It felt not unlike suddenly holding a live wire and having that current flow through me out into the room and into Mark, as we both needed it. Kris’ voice boomed and filled every molecule of the room and everything in it.
That single shot actualized a more rapid recovery, and kept me at least, going for about three days. Can I patent that??? How can I bottle it?? Hehehe
Q7: What is the longest you have ever remained?
A: I assume you are asking about the longest I have ever remained in a trance. Well, when the momentum is good, I’ve seen Kris maintain the trance for well over 2.5 hours, with but a few minutes break here and there. And that doesn’t always require a good crowd, though it helps.
He’s also done the same many times over the years even with just a one on one private session, where the person is active and understands the principles of interaction and participation instead of just sitting there like a lump on a log waiting for the Universe to reveal it secrets, cause there are no secrets.
When we hold those impromptu sessions in Colorado, and there is a good crowd, Kris can go on for nearly 2.5 to 3 hrs, almost non-stop, or with very few breaks. The people generate additional energies and interactions and Kris will ride that wave which to me may feel like riding gigantic surfs!
Q8: If the need or requirement existed, could you do trance work several hours a day like Cayce used to do?
A: I have sometimes done a few sessions in one day, but again, keep in mind that it usually charges me up. Many years ago, 1986 to be exact, while on a tour of Vancouver and lower mainland BC, one lady had organized something like 5 or 6 private sessions for individuals for the one day, and all nearly back to back, with just enough time to grab a bite to eat at lunch and supper time.
The results were actually funny. I was so charged up I was fully awake afterwards for a full 24 hours! I could not fall asleep at all, since I had been ‘asleep’ in a way almost all day. So, now I no longer do that. If need be I will do three sessions, and space them out to assure they are not back to back.
Q9: Has Kris ever made a ‘mission statement’ like Seth or Elias? Elias, in particular, is very specific about his reasons for visiting planet earth. He is responding to our request. His mission is to help us prepare for the “shift” and to impart information with the least amount of distortion.
A: Kris has also expressed his reasons, and I’ll ask Mark to look at some of the files we have and post it in the answer.
Q10: Do you ever feel Kris ‘being around’ in your ‘normal’ awake hours?
A: Yes I do, often. But then again, for me it is a matter of where I focus my attention. After working with Kris all the many years, there is a ‘place’, non-physical of course, where he and I hold a different kind of sharing, different from the regular exchange.
Sometimes Mark and I, or even just myself, are watching a television program and suddenly I ‘feel’ this slight acceleration inside that lets me know Kris is observing and at some point in time he’d like to address some of the issues discussed on the TV show. These are usually when we watch documentaries or history shows or science shows and the like. It will not happen if we are watching Saturday Night Live for example.
There are other times when I feel him around, but again differently. Sometimes Mark and I are discussing something, or there is a TV show that sparks a response from Kris, and I’ll get what I call a “download” from him. I’ll feel him actually pour in tons of info or concepts into my consciousness, all which “MAY” be used and developed at a future date. Sometimes these downloads take days weeks and months to actually make their way into a conversation. I don’t know what the contents are when it is happening though.
There are other times when I feel Kris actually working in the background of my unconscious, taking concepts and breaking them down so they can be translated into syntax and imagery for later use. When these concepts hit my consciousness, it’s like a mental rush where other parts or aspects of me involved in the process get involved directly and help manage and translate information, from non-linear to linear terms.
I have also ‘felt’ him in dreams either when he is helping someone known personally to me or he is teaching me something. The best example I know right now is when Dr. Maude Cardwell passed away in December 1992.
Dr. M. Cardwell was the original founder of The Austin Seth Center, the founder and publisher of the original Reality Change Magazine (all in the early 80s) and many other Seth related projects, some still going on today. The Seth Journal (http://www.sethjournal.com), which we produce, is the most recent incarnation of the old Reality Change Magazine.
She took a liking to Kris and often had conversations with him. I’d say she and I became sort of confidants of sorts. She had had two large non-cancerous tumors removed from her chest, but when they came back in mid-1992, the doctors told her it was so large (the size of a grapefruit) that it was now non-operable and will kill her.
She had asked Kris to help her in passing, as she was terribly afraid of dying. Kris promised to help her any way he can. Maude had the assistance of a ‘sacred intimate’ also known by other names, the type of person trained in helping someone pass away in loving peace.
To make a long story short, one night in Dec 1992, both my partner at the time and I simultaneously woke up from a shared dream, our faces flowing with tears. My partner had never met Maude, just talked with her a couple of times on the phone and had read much of our written correspondence.
In this shared dream, we watched as Kris, wearing a doctors white smock came to Maude bedside and extending his hand, took Maude’s hand in his and helped her lift out of her body and they walked away out of the room together. My partner and I woke at that point, realizing we had not only shared a dream and were crying together, but that Kris had helped Maude pass away. When we called Austin that morning, we found that Maude passed away within about 15 or so minutes of our shared dream experience. It was a very profound thing.
That also indicates Kris can act independently of me, as he’s contacted other people in dreams as well, even people that eventually meet us later in real life.
Q11: Do you sometimes experience spontaneous sessions where he just takes over?
A: No, never. However, sometimes when conditions are just right, Kris will ‘ring my bell’ real fast, and if I acquiesce, the exchange happens within seconds, given the right conditions. I always am given the choice, and thought I usually agree, there are times when I refuse… even times when I’ll tell him to piss off, I am too tired or plainly not in the mood.
Q12: Do you have a strong sense of “being Serge” in your normal waking hours? What I mean by that is I never forget ‘who I am’ under any circumstances and I think most people are like that but then maybe not. I’ve been very sick, very drunk, very tired, very calm, very stressed. I have regained consciousness after being struck by a car, after surgery etc. but I never ever lose that sense of me even when I wish I could. Are you like that always except when Kris usurps your mind and body?
I have a strong sense of me at all “my” times. In fact, Kris explained that one of the reasons we can work so well is that my ego sense of me is strong and I will not feel swept away or usurped at any time other than when I ‘agree’ to exchange with him. So, he never usurps my body and mind at any time whatsoever.
Q13: Do you ever have disagreements with Kris?
A: Yes I do. While in trance, I do not have much of a sense of anything in that way. However, Mark will let me know that Kris has suggested this or that or something or other. I am always free to take the suggestion and run with it, or not. There are times when I don’t feel like actually doing anything with his suggestion at all, and other times I will act on it.
I mean in trance does he give you advice you don’t necessarily like and you kind of argue with him on your return to consciousness and he rebuts you at the next opportunity kind of thing?
Kris has never rebutted on any issue, though he will persist in asking we take some of his suggestions to heart. We are not subject to doing anything we don’t fully feel we need to do. However there have been times that when we did act on it, it proved beneficial. Kris never enforces his views or perspectives on Mark or myself, or anyone ever at any time.
If I get my knees scraped so to speak, in spite of his advice, Kris will mention later on that there are ways to prevent a repeat of other similar incidences, and he’ll offer advice which we are free to use or not.
Q14: Do you consult him frequently for advice and counsel? Is he helpful or does he typically say something profound but somewhat unhelpful like Elias...“It’s your choice” kind of response?
A: Unfortunately, we could likely consult with Kris more often than we do, but this is an area where Kris respects our own free will and abilities to create our own realities in ways we feel we need to. Again, he’ll offer advice when we give him the chance, but he has never insisted we do this or that or else!
When he gives advice, either the ‘before’ or ‘after’ kind, he’ll also explain sometimes in great details the reasons why, what are some of the probabilities, how things will likely unfold and so on.
He always details his info very clearly and strongly requests we do ask for details, never to take anything blindly. He neither wants nor wishes for gullible nitwits for followers in any way. Nor does he desire people who feel a need to run to him to verify all, any and every experience they have of the unofficial kind (with consciousness).
He’ll always assert and honor the validity of the individual, but also strongly encourages individuals to honor and assert their own unique individuality and the validity of their own being and their subsequent experiences. They need not run to him to validate and certify their experiences, nor does he provide any seals of approval in that way.
I have never known Kris to ever override the individual’s own sense of what is good or not for that person. He’ll work with what the person has or where they are at and make clear detailed expressions and discussions to expand their views of the choices available to them in terms of probabilities, and they are always free to act or not, which even not acting is an act too.
Kris expects only one thing from people, that they live up to and honor their own abilities of consciousness.
Q15: To me, it often seemed that Jane felt inferior to Seth and felt a strong need to be her own person, write her own books, etc.
A: I don’t think Jane felt inferior to Seth as much as she recognized that Seth expected nothing less of her than of living up to her own abilities of consciousness. It was a challenge. Keep in mind that Rob and Jane were literally on their own in that time frame. They had no one to model themselves after and had to build from the ground up so to speak.
Jane was already her own person, very strongly so, and continued to be so till her last breath. She valued her own individuality, and from the books, it is clear Seth expected and encouraged her to live up to as much of her own potentials as possible. He was not meant to usurp or swallow her personality, but to encourage its fullest development, in spite of her own physical and health challenges.
Q16: I have the impression that she was never totally comfortable doing what she did (i.e. being a medium for Seth). She seemed to be in perpetual conflict and to have serious unresolved issues of self esteem, religious conflict, health, etc. I don’t get that impression about you. You come across as more comfortable in your role than either Jane or Mary. Of course, that is only my impression. Is it reasonably accurate, if you care to comment?
A: For as much as I enjoy what I do, because to me it is my ‘passion’ and my “art”, I was not always that way. In my early days, I would shut off the process, or simply refuse to do it sometimes for weeks on end, like having a tantrum. But, someone would come along needing some assistance, and I’d give in.
It also took several years before I was comfortable enough to listen to a recording. It was bizarre to me to listen to another voice come out of my own mouth. Especially when that voice was giving advice to someone I knew nothing about.
I have grown into this role and now after so many years, it is more than second nature for me. Having admired the pioneering trail blazing Jane and Rob did helped me understand many issues of life, conflicts and encouraged me to at least resolve some of them.
I was also raised Roman Catholic, but in 1992, I wrote to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese in Ottawa and told them I was rejecting Roman Catholicism and Christianity as they had taught me in all its forms. I felt I was able to understand enough of my own self at that time to not have to rely on their false promises of salvation, recognizing that I had nothing to be ‘salvaged’, or saved from in their terms.
I just needed to make it official on paper. A few days after the months long correspondence on this issue, I suddenly realized I had effectively removed the socio-religious safety net they provide, and that truly I had to honor whom and what I was on my own terms. It was part of being my own person in many ways.
Back in the groups of people who would come to my place and chat with Kris, I think 1985 or so, one person I got to know very well was a kind man who happened to be the Head Psychiatrist of a local hospital in Ottawa. He had read lots of Seth and others and saw the valued of unofficial information of this nature. I had many discussions with his, as his area of specialization was split personality, multiple personality syndrome, and schizophrenia.
I was still so unsure then of what I was doing, and he had assured me that from his professional perspective, this was a genuine phenomenon and there was nothing clinical, no pathology involved here at all. In fact, whenever he’d have a problem with one of his patients, he’d come and chat with Kris and get some insights into that patient, as well as get some creative tools he could use to help that patient.
I do not know about Mary at all, though Mark and I have a strong desire to call her. We feel we would be good friends, which we have already done now and find mary a wonderful, warm and open person.
I have also discovered over the years that the exchange with Kris actually encourages and inspires me to explore more of Reality and Creativity as is possible for me. So it is a good spring board.
Q17: Anyhow...curious minds want to know! Of course, curious minds don’t necessarily need to know so you can tell them to get stuffed if so inclined.
A: Now, I appreciate curious minds of course, as I am also filled with curiosity. You see, it is this curiosity that has led to my working with Kris as I understand it. It is this same curiosity that has enabled a complete transformation of my life in many respects.
I was born into a family where the father, and then the stepfather both were violent abusive alcoholic in every way: emotional, physical, sexual and psychological. Most people that know our family background are really surprised that neither myself, my brother or two step sisters are not following into the patterns, myself especially.
Being curious even at an early age led to the realization that I was not obliged or forced to abide by the status quo. I could change all that. I could choose to be different, and that was done with knowledge and experiences both. Not just speculative sentimentalism, but with in-your-face first hand direct experiences with Life and consciousness. I made choices to be different and lived with the results. Those choices were made before I took the body that was vacated by the original personality (I was still-born) and this is part of my Life Path.
As for health issues, I have had very little really, and though there have been challenges all across my life, I feel those challenges would not have been accepted had I not the resources and tools to deal and grow with them. Yes the choices may have cost more than I might have anticipated, but damn it, they are my choices to make. That is what individuality is all about. Honoring my choice to be!
As far as telling anyone to “get stuffed”, I would only say to “get stuffed” with those abilities of consciousness that are yours to use, and nothing short of living up to your potentials will do.
I hope that helps.
Cheers,
Serge
