Participants: Mary (Michael) and Jonathan (Sobini)
ELIAS: Good morning!
JONATHAN: Good morning!
ELIAS: (Laughs) And what shall we discuss, my friend?
JONATHAN: Oh well, it sure is nice to talk to you, Elias. It’s been over twelve years, I was telling Mary.
ELIAS: And in that, for you a long time, and otherwise a blink. (Chuckles)
JONATHAN: Yes. I partially understand. (Both laugh) Well, I was wondering… Perhaps I’ll start with some light stuff first, some of the fun stuff, Elias.
ELIAS: Very well.
JONATHAN: Regarding my children, Will and Lily, what would their essence names be?
ELIAS: One moment. (Pause) The first one, Athos (AY-thaws). A-T-H-O-S.
JONATHAN: A-T-H-O-S. Athos. Okay.
ELIAS: The second one, Bess (BESS), B-E-S-S.
JONATHAN: Oh, interesting. Okay. Now what about essence intent? For Will?
ELIAS: Actually, I will express to you what I express to everyone in relation to intent. It is a matter of them identifying that. It is important that they themselves identify it. It is important that ALL of you yourselves identify it, because it helps in relation to part of your identity.
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS: And [inaudible] process. Therefore, I would definitely encourage that.
JONATHAN: I understand. Yeah. Maybe you can confirm some of the other fun stuff. Family belonging to, are Will and Lily both Sumafi?
ELIAS: Belonging to, yes.
JONATHAN: And aligning, would Will be Sumari and Lily Borledim?
ELIAS: Correct.
JONATHAN: And orientation, would they both be intermediate?
ELIAS: Actually, yes.
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS: Congratulations!
JONATHAN: (Laughs) This one I found a little trickier: focus type. I thought maybe Will emotional and Lily maybe religious?
ELIAS: Correct.
JONATHAN: Oh, wow. Okay. Now, when it comes to greatest gift and talents, is that something you could offer, Elias?
ELIAS: And do you have an impression?
JONATHAN: Well, you gave me mine. For the kids, it’s tricky when they’re young. I asked Will in bed the other day, and he said he thought his greatest gift was moving things with his mind, though I’ve never seen him do that, so… (laughs)
ELIAS: Actually, I would agree with him.
JONATHAN: Oh, my goodness!
ELIAS: And I would say that that doesn’t always mean physically.
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS: But—it does actually include moving things physically, but it might not necessarily appear in the form of moving a ball across the floor. But that he definitely does have a gift in relation to concentration and directing that concentration in relation to outside sources AND himself, and making them move, which I agree with him.
JONATHAN: Interesting. And what about Lily?
ELIAS: And your impression.
JONATHAN: Mm. She’s four. I haven’t taken the time, Elias. I don’t have a good impression.
ELIAS: (Chuckles) Perhaps this will encourage you to pay more attention to them and observe them more clearly. I would say for her, her greatest gift is actually twofold: it is the same, but it manifests in what you would term or think of as opposites, that she projects energy, and it can either be soothing and calming or it can be exciting.
JONATHAN: Oh, my goodness. That is… Okay, I understand that. (Both laugh) Yeah.
ELIAS: That is definitely a gift that she can influence anything around her. It doesn’t have to only be people, but she can influence anything around her in that manner with those opposites.
JONATHAN: Yeah. Fascinating how it shifts during the day, too. Earlier in the day it’s more of the gentler, nurturing energy, and then an hour before bed she turns into this crazy warrior. (Both laugh) Yeah. Okay. Thank you for that.
Now what about my wife, Susan? Oh, you’re going to say my impression….
ELIAS: Yes.
JONATHAN: And she won’t be impressed that I don’t have much of one. (Both laugh)
ELIAS: Perhaps stop in this moment and allow yourself to connect with an impression. Impressions are not what you have figured out, so to speak; it is information that you simply know.
JONATHAN: Yeah. Hm. She’s a connector, like bringing people together. (Pause) I’m drawing a blank, Elias.
ELIAS: And are you asking for her greatest gift?
JONATHAN: Yeah.
ELIAS: That is precisely it.
JONATHAN: So I wasn’t drawing a blank. (Laughs)
ELIAS: You were not. And I would say that you were not at all, that that is precisely it, that she is expressing that ability, that gift to knit together, and she does it quite well.
JONATHAN: Yeah. I could see that. Well, thank you for the confirmation.
ELIAS: You are very welcome.
JONATHAN: And then none of us would be dispersed or aristocrats, correct?
ELIAS: Correct.
JONATHAN: And am I the only one that’s final focus in the family?
ELIAS: Correct.
JONATHAN: Okay. And then would Will and I both be leader personalities? That was a tricky one. I could see different aspects of both.
ELIAS: Yes.
JONATHAN: We are? Okay. And then, Susan and Lily both supporter personality?
ELIAS: Yes.
JONATHAN: Okay. Well, that was the fun stuff. (Both laugh)
ELIAS: And you may be surprised that whatever is serious might become fun also!
JONATHAN: Oh, and that… You know what? Partly that’s a gift of mine, I think. (Laughs) I can make—
ELIAS: Aha! (Laughs) And I agree with you.
JONATHAN: Thank you. Well, really my main focus of the call today was the topic of blocked memories.
ELIAS: Very well.
JONATHAN: And I believe that I have a few. Correct?
ELIAS: Yes. And what is your indicator of that?
JONATHAN: Well, partly help from a friend and partly intellectual. I had a Vedic astrology reading where it talked about periods of time I went through, and it would make sense that I would have experienced some trauma in the earlier parts of my life.
ELIAS: But in that, what behaviors do you recognize that have been influenced by that?
JONATHAN: Oh, many. (Both laugh) Well, one of the really interesting ones is this fear of being alone and in the dark, and a fear of an extradimensional presence or something that is unseen to me. Does that make sense?
ELIAS: Yes.
JONATHAN: And my question to that, Elias, is when I was young, was there a focus of mine that would have influenced me in a way that I would perceive as trauma?
ELIAS: No.
JONATHAN: No. Okay.
ELIAS: But what I would say is that you did have many times in which you were drawing on the energy and the experiences of some other focuses that incorporated similar experiences, and therefore that amplified your own. What I mean by that is that as a young child, your tapping into other focuses was expressed mainly in dreams, and therefore, YOU wouldn’t necessarily identify them as dreams but rather nightmares. And in that, I would say that you did present to yourself many similar experiences of other focuses, which simply amplified your own experiences and made them more frightening.
JONATHAN: Okay. As an example, when my parents sleep-trained me and I would be crying for them in the night and they wouldn’t come, that would have created trauma. Correct?
ELIAS: Yes.
JONATHAN: And that would have led to a blocked memory?
ELIAS: Yes.
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS: Because that was interpreted in several capacities: one as being entirely unimportant; another as being something that is disposable; another being that you are helpless, that you can’t effect, regardless of how much you express.
JONATHAN: Yeah. When I open that door a little bit I can feel a flood of emotion, so I close it up.
ELIAS: Now, what I would say to you, my friend is, I understand that immediate reaction, because that is your physical brain, your neurological system and your body consciousness expressing protecting you.
JONATHAN: Right.
ELIAS: And it is [inaudible]. BUT—what I would say to you is that you are not that child any longer, and as an adult you can actually cope with the memory and the feeling. You actually can address to that, move into it, not shut it off, not run away from it, and experience it, and you can actually successfully move through it. What I would say is, it is slightly more challenging when an individual is aware of the feeling but has blacked out the memory—
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS: — because they don’t quite have the imagery to attach the feeling to. And therefore, it is slightly more challenging moving through the process to get to the memory than it is for someone who has recall of the memory but doesn’t feel anything with the memory. And in that, it is slightly – not tremendously, but slightly – easier to connect the two and move them together.
Now, in this, what I would say to you, my friend, is definitely don’t attempt to do it yourself.
JONATHAN: Yeah, I understand that for sure.
ELIAS: Yes. That can be not only difficult, but it can be dangerous. Therefore, I would definitely encourage you not to attempt to do it yourself but to be engaging another source, another individual to help you move through that direction. Or I can facilitate that with you, also. It is your choice.
JONATHAN: Okay. Now, it’s interesting, Elias, when I heard [Anon’s] recent session and the way he could address some of these things that are perhaps more of the less traumatic blocked memories in a way that is experienced more subjectively—
ELIAS: Correct.
JONATHAN: Would I be a good fit for that?
ELIAS: (Pause) Partially.
JONATHAN: Partially.
ELIAS: But what I mean by that is, I would say that partially, yes, but with one direction that might not be optimally successful.
JONATHAN: And that would be the most traumatic of my blocked memories?
ELIAS: I would agree.
JONATHAN: Okay. And would it be more beneficial/efficient to work with you or Inge with that one?
ELIAS: I would say it is simply a matter of your choice.
JONATHAN: Okay. Well, thank you. There are some options there. I do feel at this time that I’m ready.
ELIAS: THAT is the most significant piece, my friend, because that will actually allow you to move in a successful direction. When you aren’t ready, it definitely incorporates much more time, because when you aren’t ready you fight with it and push it away.
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS: Therefore, I would definitely be encouraging of you that you recognize that you are ready, and that is one of the most significant points.
JONATHAN: Okay. About a year and a half ago I had a tarot session with Jean-Francois, and the question I asked was, “What is a limiting belief or perception that I’m not aware of at this time?” And the cards that were revealed, were they pointing to a blocked memory?
ELIAS: Yes.
JONATHAN: Ah! I thought so, because all of a sudden—I completely forgot about this session, and then it’s come to light again at this time. The first card that was pulled was a ten of cups reversed. Would you confirm that this card was indicating a disturbance in the fullness of my emotional expression?
ELIAS: Definitely.
JONATHAN: And then to contextualize that card, the next card that was pulled was a reversed pope. Was that card showing that the imbalance in this fullness of emotional expression was related to a dualistic belief in, for example, good and evil, right and wrong?
ELIAS: Yes.
JONATHAN: Okay. And then the third card revealed had to do with a beneficial step that I could take at that time. It was the three of pentacles reversed. We concluded that it was most beneficial to engage in increments, being careful not to sacrifice my earthly, physical balance, and I think I wasn’t ready (laughs) to go all in then.
ELIAS: (Laughs) I would agree.
JONATHAN: Okay. But something interesting: When that card was revealed, what was the meaning behind JF’s apartment door opening? It was right when he was talking about power in relation to earthly energy.
ELIAS: I would say that that was a symbol for you about opening a door. It was very blatant and very obvious. And in that, it was obvious also in the capacity that it was HIS door that opened, because that was imagery and symbolism to you that the door was not directly in front of you yet. You were opening a door, but it was at a distance and you couldn’t necessarily step through it yet.
JONATHAN: Okay. And now these doors open in OUR house randomly.
ELIAS: (Laughs) And THAT would be the indicator of what you expressed: You are ready.
JONATHAN: Okay. Interesting.
ELIAS: I would say it IS interesting that you are presenting such blatant, stark imagery to yourself, very obvious imagery with very little interpretation necessary.
JONATHAN: (Laughs) Speaking of imagery, this topic has been in my awareness quite a bit lately. Not that long ago, I was opening the fridge and a jar broke. And while cleaning up the glass I cut myself, but I couldn’t see the glass when I was picking it up and I squeezed the paper towel again and I cut myself again. And so my finger was wrapped up and was bleeding. And that same day my wife was cleaning the blind in my son’s room, and this set of keys fell out. And after I had cut myself twice and these keys were out, I looked on the table, and my son had written from a previous day the word “evil” on a piece of paper. And on the next piece of paper beside it was the word O-P-P, which I interpreted as “open” because that’s how he used to say “open” as a child. He’d say “opp.” And the keys were laying on the paper that said “opp.” And throughout this process I was feeling sick to my stomach. A lot of imagery there (laughs), and I was wondering if you could give me your take on that, Elias?
ELIAS: And what is your assessment at this point?
JONATHAN: Well, cutting myself on something that I didn’t see, that was invisible to me, reminded me of that child not seeing the influences at that time. And it also reminds me OF these invisible influences—I mean, even though you can’t see them they’re still there.
ELIAS: I would agree. Now, what I would say in that part is that it isn’t that the child didn’t see.
JONATHAN: Right.
ELIAS: It’s that YOU don’t see, as an adult, that it has been hidden from you to protect you, and therefore, this is a matter of also not seeing what is directly in front of you. The most difficult and the most harmful expressions and influences that you have that produce certain behaviors with you are generally so close to you—they are so obvious and they are something that you express continuously, frequently—that you don’t see them. They are invisible to you. You can’t see those influences that are directly in front of you.
JONATHAN: And would this relate to that pope card? The dualistic belief in—
ELIAS: Yes.
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS: I would also say that in that, some of your behaviors have been influenced in opposite directions; therefore, that would be another piece of the imagery of that duality.
JONATHAN: Okay.
Well, speaking of some of these influences, one influence that is really uncomfortable, Elias, would be constipation. Would this be related?
ELIAS: Yes.
JONATHAN: And does this have to do with an overactive mental energy?
ELIAS: Yes.
JONATHAN: Could you give me something else that would be beneficial to assist with that?
ELIAS: I will ask you first—
JONATHAN: For my impression?
ELIAS: No.
JONATHAN: No?
ELIAS: Not his time. (Laughs)
JONATHAN: Okay. (Laughs) It’s locked! (Laughs)
ELIAS: Do you like to read?
JONATHAN: Yes, I do. Yeah.
ELIAS: Do you like to listen and be read to?
JONATHAN: Yes.
ELIAS: Or do you like to read yourself? Which do you like more?
JONATHAN: Reading myself.
ELIAS: Very well.
Now; what type of subjects do you like to read about?
JONATHAN: I prefer nonfiction in spiritual… like books that you’ve written or Seth has written. That’s my inclination.
ELIAS: Very well.
Now; what I would express is, fictional books are very helpful.
Now; what I would say is, you can actually be reading books that are stories that have somewhat of a spiritual inclination and perhaps read books about magic.
[The timer for the end of the session rings and continues intermittently]
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS: Or about a wizard.
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS: Or an alchemist. And in that, the reason being is that it gives your thought mechanism something constructive to do rather than repeat thinking, which is DEstructive.
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS; Because when you read stories, it engages your imagination. You have to imagine what is being expressed. You have to imagine and create the characters in the story, and then you have to imagine the environment that they are in, and what they are doing and how they are doing it, and all of it comes from your imagination. And what that does – because imagination is very real, and as I have expressed many times, imagination is not fantasy.
JONATHAN: Right.
ELIAS: As much as it may SEEM fanciful, it isn’t fantasy. It is very real; it simply may not necessarily be real in your physical dimension. But in this, what you are doing is you are using your imagination to tap into other aspects of yourself, other memories that you have.
Remember: Your body consciousness holds all memory of ALL of your experiences.
JONATHAN: Right.
ELIAS: Therefore, when you engage your imagination, you allow yourself to tap into different memories that help you to imagine scenarios, characters, environments, actions. And in that, it serves a very purposeful function, because it gives your thought mechanism a job, to interpret that avenue of communication, which is your imagination. And in that, it moves your thought mechanism away from thinking about information that you have.
JONATHAN: Okay. And I’ve been feeling as though it would be beneficial to start maybe a regular meditation practice. That would—
ELIAS: [inaudible] beneficial. I am ALWAYS advocating in that direction, with everyone.
JONATHAN: Okay. I will do that. Yeah.
ELIAS: But I would definitely encourage you to move in a direction of discovery of engaging books that are nonfiction books that are somewhat in the vein of what interests you that would allow you also to move in a beneficial direction for you. And I would say, it will interplay. Remember: Everything is interconnected.
JONATHAN: Right.
ELIAS: Therefore, it will interplay with what you do in your day, with how you engage your meditation, with how you interact with other individuals. It will influence differences in behavior.
JONATHAN: Okay. I understand.
ELIAS: And I would say that it also likely will influence in a manner in which you likely will connect with your children more.
JONATHAN: Right. Yeah, I could see that for sure, Elias.
Elias, the timer has been going off. I had talked to Mary about extending it to an hour, but perhaps a half session would be more beneficial? Do you have a…?
ELIAS: That is your choice, my friend.
JONATHAN: Then I’m keeping going. (Laughs) As long as you don’t mind the beeping. (Laughs)
ELIAS: Very well. (Jonathan laughs) Very well. (Laughs)
JONATHAN: Okay. That’s great. I’m going to do that. It’s funny, I’m at this point in my life where I’m just more about experience and less about information. I think I’m…
ELIAS: (Laughs) I understand.
JONATHAN: Yeah.
ELIAS: Because the experience is what changes concept to reality.
JONATHAN: Right.
I have a question, Elias, about these crystals that I purchased. I don’t even know what to call them, really. They’re crystals that have been programmed with frequencies, and I was wondering what benefit you could see from them, if any? There’s one I wear as a pendant, and then there’s a larger one that we keep in our house.
ELIAS: I would say that the energy that you and your family have infused with them is actually more effective than whatever has been expressed that they have been programmed with.
JONATHAN: Interesting. Okay. So, we have done something—
ELIAS: I would say that crystals are not something that you can necessarily program, that they definitely absorb energy and they definitely have different qualities that they express, but in that, I would say that that generally has to do with what energy is around them.
JONATHAN: Okay. Yeah, the gentlemen that—
ELIAS: Because crystals don’t hold energy unendingly. I would say to you, realistically, if that were the case they would explode.
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS: And in that, no. They do take in energy, they do absorb energy, but they also release it. They let it go. And in that, it is an in-out flow with all of them, and therefore you cannot actually program a crystal and have it maintain that.
JONATHAN: Okay. Yeah, something was feeling a little bit off with these, and I just… Yeah, I wanted some clarification, so…
ELIAS: Very well.
JONATHAN: But they’re still of benefit, so I’ll keep wearing my pendant. (Laughs)
ELIAS: Yes, I would say definitely, because of the energy that you express with it and the energy that your family expresses with the other one. In that, you don’t have to be directly intending to express energy towards them—they automatically absorb what is in their physical proximity.
JONATHAN: Okay.
Well, my next question, Elias, has to do with a session I had with… I would call her a beginner shaman. (Both laugh) She was balancing my energy centers and doing something which she…I think she called it like an entity extraction. It was something along the lines of extracting unwanted energy. I know there’s many belief systems involved there, but she had a gift with working with energy. And throughout the process I felt almost like getting these little electric shocks. And I held back a little bit, because I felt like if I just let go it would have been embarrassing for both of us, in a way. I could feel some of her belief systems and mine, and I held back, to an extent. And when she got towards my throat energy center, I started to talk in what she thought was tongues, and she felt like she encountered what she termed to be a powerful darker energy and that it was not to be dealt with at that time. And I was wondering what that was about, and if maybe that was related to these blocked memories?
ELIAS: One moment. (Pause) Partially yes, partially no. Partially yes, and therefore that is understandable that in relation to her beliefs she would translate that as something dark and that she would translate it as some type of entity. In a manner of speaking it is, but not literally. Then partially not, because I would say that partially she was tapping into your energy now and mixing that with other, and your energy now actually has a considerable strength.
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS: Therefore, she was attaching that strength to what she was interpreting as a dark entity. In actuality, I would say that yes, there is that piece of that blocked energy, but what was very influencing was her reception of the strength of your energy now, and she was interpreting that also as not good. Which actually, I would express the opposite. I would say (laughs) that that is actually tremendous, that you DO have a very strong energy. You do have a considerable energy that is empowering.
JONATHAN: Okay. Thanks. (Laughs)
ELIAS: You are very welcome. Therefore, actually I would also acknowledge you and commend you that you clarified that. Because I would say that the energy she was connecting to was very real, but her interpretation of it was somewhat askew and that it has been much more beneficial for you to have a clear and more accurate description of that energy, because it IS actually empowering.
JONATHAN: Okay. Yeah, at the time I interpreted it as though she was tapping into another focus of mine, because it felt like she was tapping into me.
ELIAS: She IS! Or she WAS (laughs) tapping into you, and in that, recognizing that strength of that energy, which is very real.
JONATHAN: Right. Okay. Interesting.
The other experience I wanted to talk about was an experience I had with another lady, and we were in a vehicle. We were attempting to cross the border to go to a conference in Colorado, and we were held up at the border and she was told that she could not pass. And while I was waiting I began to shake, seemingly uncontrollably. It reminded me of the shaking that you talked about when addressing to these blocked memories.
ELIAS: Yes. Yes.
JONATHAN: Is that what was occurring? In relation to a—
ELIAS: I would definitely agree. And that would be what I was expressing in relation to it is slightly more challenging for individuals that actually connect with the feelings but not the memories.
JONATHAN: Yes. That’s what I thought of when you said that, is that this has happened to me more than once, the feeling without the memory.
ELIAS: Yes. And that action, that expression of that type of shaking, that is a definite reaction to trauma. That is the body consciousness automatically reacting. And in that, what I would remind you of is that unless you are generating an actual indicator to the body consciousness, it doesn’t distinguish time. And this is an example of that, that your body will react to a trigger in relation to that feeling because it doesn’t distinguish time.
JONATHAN: To assist, Elias, could you offer me a memory? I think it has something to do with authority.
ELIAS: (Pause) Now, simply feel your way into that.
JONATHAN: (Pause) I’m going to experience these emotions, Elias.
ELIAS: What I would say, therefore, is from now until we meet again, I would encourage you to allow yourself to move in that direction as much as you can and not stop it. Now, that you CAN do by yourself, because in that, your brain is already steered, in a manner of speaking, to shut off, to shut that door. Therefore, what you are doing is pushing that feeling and pushing the door open little by little, and you can do that.
Now, in that, when you are—just as you were a moment ago—when you are aware that you know that those feelings are coming and they are about to begin, don’t stop. But at that moment, start doing that motion with your fingers, back and forth.
JONATHAN: What motion?
ELIAS: Tap your fingers, your thumb to your middle finger.
JONATHAN: Oh.
ELIAS: And in that, you do right-left, right-left, right-left, right-left. You do alternating hands. You tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap with your fingers. You do that only while you are experiencing the feeling and the beginning of the memory. As soon as it stops, you stop with the fingers—because it will stop.
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS: But now you are letting yourself move in that direction, and I seriously, sincerely encourage you to allow yourself to not stop it. I know it is scary, and I know it is uncomfortable, but it is uncomfortable for a very short amount of time—very short. Therefore, in that, it does stop. That is what you can remind yourself: it will stop. It isn’t that you are going to move into the feeling and it will never stop—it will stop.
In this, what I would say to you is, this is one example in which I would encourage you to push--not hard, don’t force yourself, but push somewhat and push yourself into that memory. And in that, allow your thought mechanism to interpret: “What is the next scene? What is the next action? What do you see? What is happening? What is that memory?” Even if you only have a small portion of it each time, keep moving in that direction of don’t stop the feeling. And while the feeling is happening, feel into what that is. Are you understanding?
JONATHAN: Yeah.
ELIAS: Excellent.
JONATHAN: And so, the… I mean, the goal here is to identify the memory to go with the feeling?
ELIAS: Yes. Yes.
JONATHAN: Okay.
ELIAS: To pull forward the memory that belongs to that feeling.
JONATHAN: Okay. And as the feeling comes…?
ELIAS: It may not be – I will say to you, very realistically – it may not be something as an adult that you would think of as tremendously [inaudible], such as recognizing being left and not responded to when you are put to bed. That can be a traumatizing experience for a child. The adult in your life, or anyone else in your life when you were a small one, may not have done anything physically to you. They may not have hurt you physically, but that doesn’t mean that your interpretation of what was happening isn’t traumatic. For a child, being left alone in the dark can be a terrifying experience, and when no one responds to their cry, it can be horrific.
Therefore, in that, what I would say to you is, regardless of the pieces that you present to yourself, I would definitely suggest that you log them by writing them down, and that will also help in recall with the memory. But I would definitely express to you to not discount anything that you present to yourself, because until you have the full picture, you don’t know how important those pieces may be.
JONATHAN: Okay. I understand. All right.
Well, I have one last question, Elias.
ELIAS: Very well.
JONATHAN: I’m feeling a… well, an excitement towards changing the direction of my career to what I would term to be a coaching business, where I can assist people through coaching. And I was wondering if you could tell me what I am offering that is of value and what the client is perceiving that I’m offering that is of value, if that makes sense?
ELIAS: Very much so. And what I would say is, what you are offering and what they are receiving is that self-empowerment, which is exceptionally important. And let me say to you, my friend, that not everyone can do that. I would say to you that it is very automatic for anyone to somewhat discount or dismiss something that they do naturally, because they automatically think that because they do it naturally that everyone does that, or that that isn’t special or that isn’t different because if I do it, then everyone does it. That isn’t true.
[The timer for the end of the session rings]
JONATHAN: I understand.
ELIAS: What you do naturally may be significantly difficult for other people. That would be the reason that they would be drawn to you.
JONATHAN: Okay. Thank you.
ELIAS: You are very welcome. I shall greatly be anticipating our next meeting, my friend, and I express tremendous, tremendous encouragement to you and great supportiveness in your new direction.
JONATHAN: Thanks, Elias.
ELIAS: Until our next meeting, my dear friend, in tremendous love to you, au revoir.
JONATHAN: Au revoir.
