Monday, June 10, 2002 (Private/In Person)
Participants: Mary (Michael), Dianne M (Kadi) and Beth (Lillyth)
Elias arrives at 11:25 AM. (Arrival time is 24 seconds.)

ELIAS: Welcome once again!

DIANNE: Thank you very much! Hello. My name is Dianne. I know that I have Sumari, but I don't know whether it's an alignment or family. I'm thinking that my alignment or family has something to do with emotions, feeling emotions intensely. I had another thought last night that it might have something to do with healing - not deliberate healing, but healing energy. I don't know the names of the families other than Sumari, so I can't put the name to it. Am I anywhere in the ballpark? (Pause)

ELIAS: Essence family, Vold; alignment, Sumari.

DIANNE: Makes sense. Now, there are other things that I don't know much about. Orientation?

ELIAS: Common.

DIANNE: And the emotional, thought, political, religious - I think I'm emotional.

ELIAS: Correct.

DIANNE: Oh, and intent. That I don't think I know. I guess I don't think much about intent.

ELIAS: If you are so choosing, you may offer yourself the recognition of your intent, and the method that you may incorporate to discover your intent in this focus is to view the entirety of your focus, not merely now but the entirety of your focus, and allow yourself to view the theme throughout your focus, which generates your experiences.

Now; the theme is the general direction. Within any theme of any focus, there are myriads of specific directions that are explored through experience pertaining to that general theme. In a manner of speaking, as an intent, the theme may be analogous to the trunk of a tree, and all of the specific avenues of exploration associated with that trunk are all of the branches of the same tree.

Therefore, as you allow yourself to investigate the theme of your focus, you may offer yourself information concerning your intent in this focus.

DIANNE: The only thought I've ever had on it was that my intent was to learn how to create my reality. It's so very basic! (Elias chuckles) Everybody's learning how to create their reality.

I'm a very social being and I like communicating individually with people, not crowds so much but individually with people. I used to like to be very helpful to people, but then I got tired of that. It became like I wasn't paying attention to myself. It was like being outside of myself all the time, and somewhere along the line I recognized it and said, "No, I don't want to do that anymore." (Elias chuckles) And I've stopped, I think.

BETH: Ask your essence name.

DIANNE: Oh! My essence name - does it begin with V? No, Z. Somebody thinks it begins with Z.

ELIAS: K. Kadi, K-A-D-I (KAY dee).

DIANNE: Nice, I like that. (Elias chuckles)

I don't think I'm a final focus; I think I'm continuing, and I think I have thousands of lives. (Pause)

ELIAS: One thousand nine hundred eighty-one.

DIANNE: I'm not surprised. (Laughs and Elias chuckles)

I have two daughters, Susan and Rachel. We'll go with Susan first - her essence name, family, alignment - the whole shebang! (All laugh)

ELIAS: Ha ha ha ha ha! Very well - shebang! (All laugh) (Pause) Essence name, Baux, B-A-U-X (BOH). And your impression?

DIANNE: Of her family? Well, she's an artist, and I'm thinking Sumari.

ELIAS: Correct.

DIANNE: She has an extremely emotional and artistic temperament. It's those other families... See, I don't really know them well enough to pick, but an emotional one.

ELIAS: It matters not whether you incorporate the objective information. I am requesting impressions. I may express to you, the families are the reverse of yours.

DIANNE: So she's Sumari/Vold.

ELIAS: Correct. Orientation, common.

DIANNE: I don't think she's the final focus.

ELIAS: Correct.

DIANNE: I don't know about how many lives she has. I don't get a feeling for that, whether she has thousands of lives, like I do with myself. (Pause)

ELIAS: Six hundred fourteen.

DIANNE: Her intent?

ELIAS: She may discover or identify her intent in the same method.

DIANNE: She won't like that! She asked me to ask you what her intent was! (Both laugh) She wants to know!

My daughter, Rachel - the whole thing. (Pause)

ELIAS: Essence name, Zythin, Z-Y-T-H-I-N (ZIH thin). Impression?

DIANNE: She's different than Susan and I. She's a very scattered individual, and wild and fun loving and social. I don't know if I have any impression. She's beautiful. I know beauty is involved with Zuli; I know that. I was able to pick out Zuli, but I'm not sure that's it.

ELIAS: Essence family, Ilda. You are correct - alignment, Zuli. Orientation, common.

DIANNE: She's got the most incredible blue eyes. Does she know you? Is she one of your blue-eyed friends? (Laughs)

ELIAS: I incorporate many individuals as friends that choose to manifest blue eyes! (Both laugh)

DIANNE: I have a grandson whom I adore, and I let him do anything he wants to do. I let him create his reality. He's very demanding about creating his reality. His name is Ryan. He's been my wonderful mirror to try to appreciate myself because I appreciate him so much. His family, his essence name...?

ELIAS: Essence name, Reno, R-E-N-O (REE noh). Essence family, Gramada; alignment, Sumafi; orientation, common.

DIANNE: When he was born, we all tried to guess if he was anyone that we particularly might have known that died and was coming back to be with us. My daughter thought it might have been her ex-boyfriend who died when he was 21. I thought maybe my grandfather or my grandmother, and then I thought maybe my friend, Ben, because he wanted to come back only if he was a male, because males have fun and can do more of what they want, and Ryan is like that! (Elias laughs) And I know it's not "coming back"; I do understand simultaneous time. But is he someone we know?

ELIAS: No.

DIANNE: He's not! (Elias chuckles) He must be from the other side, maybe his father's side of the family?

ELIAS: No.

DIANNE: Well, he just picked a good family to come into, because we're letting him create left and right.

ELIAS: And to challenge you in guessing! (Laughs with Dianne)

DIANNE: Oh, he's here to challenge me in guessing, is that what you mean?

ELIAS: All of you. (Chuckles)

DIANNE: My mother and my father, the whole business with them, too.

ELIAS: First individual (pause), essence name, Bailey. Essence family, Tumold; alignment, Sumari; orientation, common.

Second individual, essence name, Thess, T-H-E-S-S. Essence family, Sumafi; alignment, Vold; orientation, common.

DIANNE: Very interesting. (Elias chuckles) My perfectionist father is Sumafi! (All laugh)

(To Beth) Oh, you didn't ask about your mother. While I'm at it, Beth forgot to ask about her mother's family. (To Beth) Was it family?

BETH: Essence name, family, and alignment.

ELIAS: Essence name, Chin-Ling, C-H-I-N hyphen L-I-N-G. And your impression?

BETH: Ooo! (All laugh loudly) I think Sumafi is in there somewhere; beyond that, I'm not sure.

ELIAS: Sumafi; alignment, Vold.

DIANNE: Like my father!

BETH: Yes!

DIANNE: The two mean ones! (All laugh loudly) They are!

BETH: Is she common?

ELIAS: Yes. (Chuckles and more laughter)

BETH: I'm not sure if I remembered to ask for Andy, just quickly, what his family was.

DIANNE: Go ahead.

BETH: My son, Andy - what is his family, essence name, and alignment?

DIANNE: I think Andy's Zuli.

ELIAS: You are correct. Alignment, Ilda.

BETH: Zuli/Ilda. And his essence name? (Pause)

ELIAS: Essence name, Arroan, A-R-R-O-A-N (air OWN).

BETH: Thank you.

ELIAS: You are quite welcome.

DIANNE: I'll get to some friends here. A friend, Barbara, who is also called Bobbie, my impression of her is some family that's very intuitive and right out there. She's quick, she does things without thought and she's very right on. She's also artistic. She's a multi-task person; she can do a dozen things at once. But she's insecure and doesn't trust herself. (Elias chuckles)

ELIAS: This is quite common.

DIANNE: I have great faith in her, but she comes to me for reassurance. She tells me I'm very calming and healing to her. I think we were sisters. Those are my impressions.

ELIAS: Correct.

DIANNE: In England?

ELIAS: Correct.

DIANNE: I might as well get right on with it, while I'm in there. We have a draw to a place called St. Ives in England.

ELIAS: Yes.

DIANNE: Were we sisters there? Or did we live there?

ELIAS: Yes.

DIANNE: I think - I don't know why ... well, I do know why - that we have a connection with Virginia Woolf and her sister Vanessa Bell. Not that I think that we are them, but that there's some connection there.

ELIAS: Friends.

DIANNE: The other impression was that we were maybe into a little witchcraft over there together, some kind of magical stuff.

ELIAS: Yes, you are correct.

DIANNE: I didn't get her name. I just sort of jumped right in there as I was giving my impressions. (Elias chuckles) So her essence name and families? (Pause)

ELIAS: Essence name, Zelda.

DIANNE: She's the Zelda! Okay!

ELIAS: Essence family, Vold; alignment, Sumari; orientation, common.

DIANNE: That's the same as me, Vold/Sumari. I thought she was a little different than me. She just expresses it differently, that's all.

I feel like I knew Seth and Jane Roberts, that I have a connection with Seth and Jane Roberts. I have an impression that I do. (Pause)

ELIAS: Yes, each.

DIANNE: Not so much in this lifetime, but that we somehow are connected. I felt quite close to Jane. I almost thought she looked like me and her experiences seem very similar to mine. Maybe we are very closely connected.

ELIAS: You do engage several focuses together, and this generates your sense of familiarity.

DIANNE: I have a friend, Avie M. I give his last name because he changed his name. That's not his real birth name. His real birth name is Evan. Does that make any difference? You just know this, right?

ELIAS: Correct.

DIANNE: He's a real space cadet, a real strange character! I adore him! (Elias laughs) He's totally bizarre, and he's very intellectual, and he remembers everything, and he's into everything, everything psychic. Any new thing that comes up, he totally gets into it. I don't know what family that would be. Maybe he's Sumari, because Sumaris are always jumping around from one thing to another and they get wildly interesting in something. (Elias chuckles)

I think we must have had... He and his mother - his mother's passed on, Alesheva, and that's not her real name, her real name is Mary - they were into everything. They were into the alien stuff and the whole shebang. (Elias chuckles) I think that Alesheva and I are counterpart or alternate selves, or we're the same person.

ELIAS: You have engaged counterpart action. No, you are not the same essence, but you have engaged counterpart action.

DIANNE: Avie is Sumari? (Pause)

ELIAS: Sumafi.

DIANNE: I was changing my mind just as you were going there! (Elias laughs) "No, wait a minute! He's Sumafi!"

ELIAS: (Chuckles) Alignment, Milumet.

DIANNE: And Alesheva was...? (Pause)

ELIAS: Tumold; alignment, Sumari.

DIANNE: Avie spent his whole life with his mother. He's now 50 years old, he never married, he didn't date, he didn't do anything. His mother passed on and he wonders about her. He wonders why she didn't try to contact him, which she probably has tried but maybe he just hasn't been able to receive. He asked me with great concern what you could tell him about her.

ELIAS: First of all I shall express to you, individuals that have disengaged do not attempt to contact. Their attention is moving in many expressions and actions, and therefore the attention is not focused upon the experiences of one particular focus of attention, for there is an opening of awareness of the attention as essence. Therefore it is not re-assimilated, but a blending action is occurring in which there is a recognition of being essence and one particular attention is not viewed singularly.

Now; every individual attention that manifests within your physical dimension generates an energy deposit. Therefore, this individual may access the energy deposit of the other individual or may even allow himself to access the energy of that attention in nonphysical expression and may offer himself an interaction. This is what you do within physical focus.

Each of you projects energy. Each of you manifests yourself, and you project energy continuously. Other individuals interact directly with the energy that you project. The actual physical manifestation in solidity, in what you view as flesh, is your creation; it is a projection of your perception. Therefore, you may generate the same projection of imagery regardless of whether the individual has disengaged or continues to be physically manifest. Therefore, if he is so choosing to be interactive with that attention, he may allow himself to access that energy.

DIANNE: Is that like him perceiving that she's there and then interacting? Like, I'm perceiving you as you...

ELIAS: Yes.

DIANNE: ...and then I'm interacting...

ELIAS: Yes.

DIANNE: ...just as if she is there.

ELIAS: Yes. Individuals do actually allow themselves at times - not frequently, but at times - to generate an actual physical manifestation of another individual that you define as dead. For it matters not, what you are actually interactive with directly is the energy of another individual. You generate the actual physical manifestation.

DIANNE: I think he'll like that. (Elias chuckles)

Let me see. I actually have some questions here. I'm sure I must have a lot of other lives with my daughters. We're so close. I mean, we fight like cats and dogs. We must have had all kinds of lives together.

ELIAS: Yes, you are correct.

DIANNE: In many different ways I think that they've both been my mother in other lives.

ELIAS: Yes.

DIANNE: I don't know about other relationships. But friendships, I feel like there's friendships involved.

ELIAS: Correct.

DIANNE: Let me see. I want to make sure I get to my questions because I'm sticking to this one topic, and I do have some questions! (Elias laughs loudly) More about lives and stuff, but I'll come back to that.

Is the fact that I'm Vold and emotional why I cry all the time at the drop of a pin? I know crying can be a communication. I cry at beauty. I cry at somebody else crying - I cry with them. I just cry so easily. Is that my Vold or my emotional part of me?

ELIAS: There is an influence of both of these expressions of yourself, but also you generate that action in association with different expressions that you generate.

One is associated with your empathic sense. You engage your empathic sense frequently, and in this you allow yourself to experience another individual's experience, and therefore many times you create this action of weeping in association with that empathic sense.

At other times, you generate this action as a natural release of energy. It matters not whether you perceive the cause, so to speak, (Dianne chuckles) to be negative or positive...

DIANNE: I feel embarrassed by it because I feel I don't have any control over it, and I don't want to feel embarrassed. I know I'm judging it.

ELIAS: Quite.

DIANNE: There's no right or wrong about it; it's neutral.

ELIAS: Correct.

DIANNE: I'd like to get over it. People say, "Why are you crying? What's wrong?" They get all upset, but it could be over something just wonderful.

ELIAS: This is merely a release of energy, and the manner in which you choose to release energy which is being held.

DIANNE: This is an impression that I have, that it's an easier way of doing things and I've been trying to do things the hard way.

ELIAS: HA HA! Ah! This is very unusual! (All laugh)

DIANNE: I like this next impression and I hope it's correct. (Elias laughs) My thoughts about the shift in consciousness lead me to believe that time will take care of things like health, my body returning to its natural state, my ability to live to be over 100 without infirmities. Am I correct?

ELIAS: And I shall express to you, this is your choice. (Laughs)

DIANNE: Really! So if I choose to just let time go and not push things or try to force them that I will have the body back to its natural ability that I want and that I've screwed up through all my belief systems all of these years, and that I can just let time do it?

ELIAS: You... (Grinning)

DIANNE: Let go and choose; it's my choice? (Elias nods in agreement) Thank you. That's my choice; I choose that! (Elias and Dianne laugh)

I have a question here that someone suggested would be helpful to me, for you to show me something about myself that I am missing, that I'm not aware of objectively, or to tell me something about myself that I'm dense about, that I'm missing and not aware of objectively.

ELIAS: (Smiles and shakes his head) Unnecessary. What you are presenting to yourself presently is what you are addressing to, and you are allowing yourself this process. What you objectively recognize is what you want to objectively recognize in this time framework.

Let me express to you, I am aware that many individuals proceed in this type of questioning. You offer to yourself the volume of information that you incorporate the capacity to assimilate within any one time framework. Offering more information many, many times generates an overwhelmingness, which merely moves you into an expression of trauma.

DIANNE: And we don't want that. (Laughs)

ELIAS: Correct.

DIANNE: Let me see what I have here ... oh, my stock market question!

BETH: Do you have your crystal ball?

DIANNE: No, I'm not going to...

ELIAS: I have quite misplaced the infamous crystal ball!

DIANNE: I've really worked on trying not to make it a crystal ball question. (Elias laughs loudly)

I recently decided that I was going to make money in the stock market. I invested money that I made from the condominium that I sold; I invested it in the stock market. I followed my impressions at first by picking certain stocks, and I was doing fine with that. But then I got thinking that I could improve it, that this was a bad time in the stock market, and it's not really moving very well, so I'm going to pick stocks. I started paying attention every day and obsessing, watching the stock channel every day, reading books, reading advice, going on the internet. Now I'm losing a lot of money in the stock market and I don't like that!

The way I'm not going to make this "crystal ball" is, if I leave it alone and forget it and trust, will this pass and then my original intent will come back and my money will grow? Will that happen? That's not crystal ball. I'm telling you what I think I should do - I should leave it alone and forget about it. (Pause)

ELIAS: Perhaps, but not necessarily. As you express yourself, you express an energy more efficiently incorporating information, and you allow yourself to trust with the incorporation of information. Therefore, in not paying attention you also generate a lack of trust.

DIANNE: That's why I'm kind of obsessive about trying to get as much information as I can.

ELIAS: In a manner of speaking. I may express to you, it is unnecessary to be extreme, but I may suggest to you individually that although it is possible that you may turn your attention - not pay attention - and generate an expression of trust, within your expressions of energy and the qualities that you express in this focus, there is greater potential that you shall not necessarily create that in that manner. This is a natural expression of yourself, to be more analytical. You do at times express that excessively; but not expressing any analysis is an unnatural movement within your energy.

DIANNE: That's very nice to have that validated. It wasn't even in my questions, but it absolutely fits. It makes me feel a little bit better about it, because I listen to people criticize me, saying, "Stop analyzing! You're too analytical!" It does seem like it's my nature. It just feels very natural for me to be that way.

ELIAS: It is.

DIANNE: And I enjoy it. It's not something that stresses me.

ELIAS: I am understanding. Some individuals generate an analytical expression and it is not a natural expression of their energy. It is an expression borne of their distrust and their discounting of themselves and suspicion. But this is not the situation in your energy and expression. This is a natural quality that you express, which does not generate conflict or confusion.

DIANNE: On the topic of money, there's something that I've always been interested in since I was a little child. I always liked money; I enjoyed collecting it and saving it. In the first part of my life I also enjoyed spending it, but I went through a period where I was on welfare, I had two children, and I felt very lacking, so I began to try to save it so I could get things I wanted.

At this time I'm noticing that that led me to a belief that you can't have it all, but you can if you save up and you sacrifice. (Elias chuckles) Now, I don't like that. I'm judging that belief; I don't want to do that anymore. It's a belief, I accept it - wait a minute, I accept that belief! - but I'd like to choose something else.

When I try to in my mind just envision something else, I get this tremendous thickness around it. I really got what you were talking about when you said that there was a thickness around certain things. I'm trying to work through it. It's like my head just gets this very weird feeling when I think about paying full price for something, and I think about all the things that I trained myself not to do, and then to let it go and to trust that if I spend it, it will still always be there, that I can still create it. I'm not trusting my ability to continually create, even though I'm doing fine. I know it intellectually, but boy, this thing that goes on when I ... and I think that that's what you're calling a thickness around something. Can you enlighten me a little bit about this?

ELIAS: You create this in association with anticipation. You project your attention futurely. You may alter this perception in genuinely continuing to hold your attention in the now and not projecting your attention in anticipation of the future. Reinforce to yourself in the now [that] you are generating what you want and you do incorporate enough. The future is an illusion, my friend.

DIANNE: Do you think that just practicing this, I will get over this thickness?

ELIAS: Yes.

DIANNE: I've done it a few times. I've done a few things and it felt good. I was glad I did it after I did it, that I had the thickness and went ahead and made the choice anyway. Eventually will this thickness disappear? Because I don't like that thickness.

ELIAS: Hold your attention in the now. This is tremendously affecting.

DIANNE: So it's the same thing for the lack of trust? Any other thing that I feel a lack of trust, I'm not holding my attention in the now?

ELIAS: Correct, and at times not holding your attention upon you.

DIANNE: Yes, at times the lack of trust doesn't involve me; it involves others, I guess.

ELIAS: Yes.

DIANNE: I'm thinking about the others.

ELIAS: Yes. The key is to hold your attention upon you and in the now simultaneously. At times, you are paying attention to you but not in the now. At times, you are paying attention to the now but not to yourself.

Now; move the now and you together. (Chuckles)

DIANNE: That sounds so easy.

ELIAS: It is unfamiliar, and I recognize the challenge that you present yourself with, as do many individuals, for this is an unfamiliar action. As I have expressed, the common orientation is expressing more challenge in association with this shift than the other orientations, for you are familiar with projecting your attention outwardly. You are familiar with generating outwardly, and it is an unfamiliar action to hold your attention inwardly and continue to create and generate outwardly.

DIANNE: How true! (Laughs)

I'm reading the sessions and I found some things that do help me. They calm me a little bit. If I say to myself, "I trust myself. I accept the belief system that I'm looking at, but I'm not going to align with it. I have a choice; I have many choices." Then I say, "Beliefs are neutral. My creations are perfect no matter what." This calms me when I see myself creating something that I suddenly don't want to create. Is this like the slow method, that eventually...? I mean, I do feel a little bit better, and sometimes I even follow through on it and make the other choice. Is this working for me? Am I widening my...?

ELIAS: You are widening your awareness, yes, and in association with your natural expression of energy in that analyticalness, this type of expression of affirmation, yes, is beneficial.

DIANNE: That's helpful. That's good to know.

I've been having some physical symptoms and I've tried to interpret the message that I'm trying to get to myself. One of them is, every day for the past five weeks or so I wake up with sneezing and a runny nose, and it lasts for two or three hours. This past week I've developed a neck problem where I can't move my neck much further than that or much further than that.

In trying to figure out what it's about, I came up with drainage, because there's tremendous drainage, and I've come up with the neck thing that I'm not widening my perception. I can't see the periphery. But I don't seem to be able to know what to do with what I'm coming up with. I'm trying to figure what's the message. Widen your periphery? It seems like those are words and I'm not sure that's my communication to myself.

ELIAS: Actually, you have physically manifest this affectingness of your neck as imagery that it is unnecessary for you to turn to view, that you incorporate a periphery in continuing what you perceive to be forward movement.

DIANNE: And the drainage thing that's going on? I'm eliminating something?

ELIAS: No, you are not eliminating, but you are stopping. You are stopping and starting, stopping and starting, stopping and starting. The stopping is your imagery of the sneezing, which is associated with actual stopping and noticing your actions and your associations with your beliefs, which you are doing. What you term to be the drainage or the running is the starting movement, recognizing the stopping of noticing the beliefs and the influences, and the starting of choice. It is a temporary manifestation.

DIANNE: And it's perfectly okay.

ELIAS: Quite.

DIANNE: I met someone this weekend, Ben. He's from Holland. I remembered from a long time ago I had a couple of past life images and they were of people from Holland. One was a spice merchant and the other one was a farmer, and I had these momentary knowings that I was the spice merchant and I was the farmer. So I thought I'd go over and talk to Ben about this.

We had this very long intense conversation, and he said my description was absolutely what went on in Holland and that the description of the farmer being exhausted and very powerfully strong and all that was right on. Then I got the thought, well, gee, here I am having this feeling to go over and talk to Ben, I wonder if he was in these lives, if he was a person who was in the Holland lives with me, if he was one of the characters, so to speak.

ELIAS: Yes.

DIANNE: That was an impression that I believe he was.

ELIAS: Yes, although I may express to you that your draw to be interactive with this individual is more associated with your expression in this focus.

Once again, in your natural expression of energy, you generate a trust and a natural expression of logic. Therefore, you draw yourself to an individual that presently occupies dwelling in that country to logically validate your impressions that you have offered to yourself. This is another natural expression of your analysis.

DIANNE: That makes perfect sense.

ELIAS: You offer yourself many examples of this natural flow of energy that you incorporate.

DIANNE: Back to this weekend, I met people here. When I have an impression that I know this person, maybe not in this life, maybe not from anywhere, I just say, yes, I know this person, or I know these two other people, yes I know them, I have something going on with them. I am sort of more willing to trust that now; I haven't been in the past. Is that accurate?

ELIAS: Yes.

DIANNE: Am I accurate?

ELIAS: Yes.

DIANNE: I mean I don't know where; I don't get visions of the life that I might have had with them. I don't know why I know them, but this closeness...

ELIAS: These are communications. These are impressions. Impressions are not always logical, but they are communications.

DIANNE: I do follow through; I do have that trust to go over and say it. I get the validation back. I have gotten the validation back this weekend.

I had an impression that Mary, your Mary, would like to be appreciated for herself, and I went ahead and felt that I wanted to talk to her and thank her and appreciate her. Was that a valid impression?

ELIAS: Yes. Michael is allowing himself to generate this more often.

DIANNE: Right, and I did get that impression and I followed through on that.

I went to a Seth group for many years, and we were just an hysterical group. We paid no attention to the readings and we just had fun. It was just a riotous gathering of fun. Sometimes new members would come in and they'd leave because we weren't serious enough! (Elias chuckles) We had a lot of feelings that we'd maybe been in other groups together in other areas of the world, or the many worlds, where we do the same thing and we gather together. Is that a correct impression?

ELIAS: Similar activities, yes, you are correct. (Chuckles) As I have stated, individuals do manifest in groups, generally speaking. For the most part within your manifestations, you do manifest together, for you are essence. Therefore, essences group and generate many attentions together.

DIANNE: With you, Elias, I didn't think that I had other lives, but I was being logical about this thought. I was being analytical, because I didn't feel like I was getting any particular message from you. I wasn't seeing blue eyes, I wasn't seeing blue dots, and I've been reading this for a little over a year. Beth gets much of these signs. Is that analysis correct?

ELIAS: Yes, you are correct. My expression of energy is not as familiar to you as it may be with some other individuals.

DIANNE: I just thought of another question. I think that I naturally block - I don't know if that's the right word - allowing people to enter into me and experience me. I have a natural block ... maybe not natural, maybe an unnatural block, maybe a block that I think I need, where I don't allow people to get too much into me. Is that there?

ELIAS: Yes, you are correct.

DIANNE: Is that a natural block, or is this something that I am putting out because I have fears or because...? (Pause)

ELIAS: No, this is not a natural expression of energy.

DIANNE: I am doing this...

ELIAS: Yes.

DIANNE: ...and I do have fears.

ELIAS: It is a shield, so to speak, which you generate as an expression of protection.

DIANNE: And I don't need it.

ELIAS: You do not need any expression. It is not a matter of need, but it is generated within your energy as an expression of protection. For you have generated a discounting of yourself and your natural flow, and you reflect this to yourself in the expressions of other individuals and what you perceive to be criticism, and in this you choose to be expressing this shield as a protection. You are correct - it is unnecessary. You generate this for the reason that you are discounting of yourself. Other individuals are merely reflecting what you are projecting.

DIANNE: I am aware that I discount myself. I'm not always aware of how to stop it or how to ... well, I could accept it...

ELIAS: Correct.

DIANNE: ...and then choose something else.

ELIAS: And recognize that many of your expressions that you present criticism to yourself concerning are merely natural expressions of this focus. But you have been discounting and critical of yourself that this analyzation that you naturally generate is a BAD expression.

DIANNE: You're right. Even though I will fight with someone about it and argue against it, there's a part of me that believes that they're on to something. Yeah, this is very helpful.

ELIAS: And you reinforce that belief and that expression of duplicity, for you offer yourself information that I have expressed to other individuals to NOT be expressing such analysis or analytical assessments, and you turn that information to yourself and incorporate that to reinforce a judgment.

I may express to another individual not to be incorporating such analyzation, for it is not a natural flow of energy to another individual, but it IS a natural flow of energy in your expression.

DIANNE: That's wonderful. That feels good. (Laughs and Elias chuckles)

I guess that's time. You were wonderful!

ELIAS: As are you!

DIANNE: Oh, thank you!

BETH: Thank you, Elias.

ELIAS: You are quite welcome. I express once again my affection to each of you and my energy of encouragement to you both.

DIANNE: I have one more quick question. Will you try to come to me in my dreams like you do with some people, even though I...

ELIAS: (Humorously) I need not try!

DIANNE: Oh, of course! I need to try to notice!

ELIAS: I SHALL accommodate and I shall freely offer my energy.

DIANNE: Thank you so much.

ELIAS: You are quite welcome. And perhaps you shall allow yourself more of a familiarity with my energy.

DIANNE: I will.

ELIAS: It is always welcoming.

DIANNE: I will choose that.

ELIAS: Ha ha ha! Very well, my friend! Allow yourself playfulness, and (to Beth) allow yourself to generate more fun! (Chuckles) To you each this day, au revoir.

DIANNE: Au revoir.

BETH: Au revoir.

Elias departs at 12:36 PM.
