Participants: Mary (Michael), Paul (Caroll), and
Joanne (Tyl).
Elias arrives at 2:37 PM. (Arrival time is 22 seconds)
ELIAS: Good day!
PAUL: Good day, old friend! How are you?
ELIAS: As always!
PAUL: It’s good to hear your voice again!
ELIAS: And you are engaged in much activity, I am aware of.
PAUL: We have been very busy, yes. (Elias chuckles) So I
do have a question for you this morning. Mary and Joanne and I were
just talking about the website that we’ve been working on, and regarding
the cautioning that you expressed back in May — it was session #281 — your
cautioning was in the area of remembrance of our responsibility.
I’m wondering, in the effort that we have done to date, if we have accomplished
what we talked about in terms of acceptable least distortion. If
you would comment on that, it would be very helpful.
ELIAS: Very well. I express to you that within your expression
and your efforts in your endeavors, I am quite encouraging of your actions,
and I may be expressing to you that I am quite understanding of situations
that hold within physical focus.
Now; let me also express to you that there are held concerns within
physical focus that do not concern this essence, for the point is to be
offering the information within the direction of this agenda, and I do
not hold to all of the physical concerns that individuals within physical
focus occupy themselves with. Within my own direction and expression,
you may be offering this information, and as you are continuing in the
direction of recognizing your responsibilities within the forum of this
information, this is acceptable to this essence.
It matters not which direction you choose to be moving into. My
information, which I have offered to many individuals, shall be helpful
regardless, and I am quite encouraging of each individual’s creative expression
in this area, for as you each move in this direction, you are also lending
energy to the action of this shift and its accomplishment.
PAUL: Thank you. I guess I have a follow-up question then.
Specifically, Mary, Vicki and I have been working closely on this website,
and I’m wondering if, from your point of view, are we moving in the most
efficient direction in terms of getting this information actually published?
And if we’re not moving in the most efficient direction, what advice would
you offer to help our interaction become more efficient?
ELIAS: Let me express to you that my suggestion to each of you
is to be evaluating your motivation in these areas concerning this information.
I shall also be futurely expressing information to Lawrence in this area,
for I am quite understanding of the underlying intent of the Sumafi family
in holding to the least amount of distortion, and this is quite acceptable.
But I also am cautioning of individuals not to be moving in the direction
of fanaticism in this area, for I have spoken of this previously and that
it may be slipped into quite easily at times.
Therefore, I express to each of you to be examining your movements in
your desires and each of your intents individually, and also to be looking
to your own motivations, that they may be in alignment with your individual
intents, and as you are moving in that direction, you shall be accomplishing
in what you seek to be moving into. You merely block
yourselves in the area of moving outside of your individual intents, but
this also is creating of conflict. Therefore, you offer yourselves
indicators when you are moving outside of your intent. This, once
again, be another area that I shall futurely be addressing to with Lawrence
in this area. (This hasn’t occurred to date)
As for yourselves, you may be continuing in your movement and I am not
expressing any discouragement to you, for I perceive of no area that is
presently to be causing of tremendous distortion elements. You merely
need be addressing with each other and moving in the direction that you
may each find your least conflict scenario, as you ARE continuing to filter
through your own belief systems and these are quite influencing in many
of these endeavors that you engage with each other. Are you understanding?
PAUL: Yes, I am. That was very helpful. Thank you
very much. One last follow-up question in this area, Elias.
I’m aware, as I’m doing my work on what I call
the website, of an interaction with — for lack of a better term — wider
aspects of myself. When I have a question, when I have a confusion,
I do pose a question to myself, and I’m aware of various different energies
at times that surround me or are within me and around me. I’ve come
to, I guess, understand that I am interacting with other energy in helpfulness
to achieve acceptable least distortion in this area. Do you have
any comment on those interactions that I’m sensing?
ELIAS: I am quite acknowledging of this interaction, for you are
allowing yourself to move in the direction of opening your periphery and
engaging a wider awareness. In this action, you allow yourself to
tap into more areas of your own consciousness and to be listening to the
information which is available to you.
In this also, you offer yourself the opportunity to practice quite efficiently
in validation of yourself and your own movement, for each of you holds
a leaning in the area of discounting of self, and this particular situation
that you are beginning to engage with yourself offers you the validation
that you are accomplishing and moves you more efficiently into your own
self acceptance and your own self expression, as not being dictated by
another individual, and this would be the point in the action of this shift.
PAUL: Great. That was very helpful. Thank you.
Joanne, do you have a question?
JO: Yeah. I’m not even sure whether to ask this, but I’m
going to go ahead. You had suggested that Cindel and I get together,
and it was very helpful for me from my artistic expression standpoint.
I wondered if that was your intent, or if there is something else that
you would like to add to that subject.
ELIAS: I shall express to you that my offering of that information
was not necessarily to be suggesting to you that you each would be collaborating
upon a joint effort in one specific direction, but that it may be quite
helpful to you each to be objectively engaging each other and that you
may be offering each of yourselves more information and helpfulness in
your individual creations within each of your directions, for there is
much to be offered in objective interaction with each other.
Also, I may express to you that as you may lend information and energy
to Cindel in certain areas, Cindel also may be offering — if you are accepting
of it — a quality of healing energy to you that may be helpful in areas
that you yourself have found challenging and have experienced some elements
of struggling with within this particular focus.
JO: Thank you very much.
ELIAS: You are quite welcome.
JO: I’ve been exploring my Judea focus,
and I wondered if I could ask some questions with regard to my impressions
of that.
ELIAS: You may.
JO: I sense that my focus in that time is aware of me as a future
reincarnation or incarnation, and because she believes in karma, she sees
my life as an effect of things that she causes, and her life as an effect
of our Egyptian focus. Is that correct? (Pause)
ELIAS: Yes, you are correct, and YOU may be lending energy to
that focus in your understanding that there is no karma in the sense that
it is presented within religious belief systems, and in this [you] may
be helpful in the furthering of an awareness with that particular individual
to not be adding to the belief system of duplicity, which in turn also
is affecting of your own focus within this present now.
JO: Is Lawrence paralleling this action? Do we have this
in common? (Pause)
ELIAS: There ARE certain aspects of this, although Lawrence presently
moves into a different direction, as allowing more influence of other focuses
which he holds and opening to those particular focuses in attempting to
be widening his awareness. He engages a subjective action of reconstruction
of elements of this type of energy, which is projected through those types
of expressions of other focuses. (Huh? ‘Splain it to me, Lucy!)
JO: Back to my other focus’ beliefs in karma, I seem to be blocking
on the children front, and I’m wondering if something terrible happened
and if I have some guilt over perhaps the loss of a child or of children,
and feelings of unworthiness are coming out of that.
ELIAS: There ARE religious held belief systems within that particular
focus which are suggestive of sinfulness, and that this is producing of
certain physical exhibitions within a particular focus. In this,
it is not the situation of the loss of a child, but of what would be termed
within that time period as barrenness, which is also looked upon as a punishment
from God within the religious belief systems. Therefore, this is
quite influencing within the emotional expression of that focus.
JO: And that seems to be contingent upon the beliefs around the
Egyptian focus.
ELIAS: This is also quite influencing, yes.
JO: So I didn’t have children in the Judea focus.
ELIAS: No.
JO: I have the impression that Vivien’s impression was correct:
that I was older, that I was about 23 when Great Herod died, and I was
in his employ. Is that correct? (Pause)
ELIAS: Correct, although your age within years would be two years
older.
JO: Okay, and I believe I was born in a Galilean Essene household.
(Pause)
ELIAS: Yes.
JO: And I did not learn how to read and write. (Pause)
ELIAS: You are correct.
JO: And am I related to John? A cousin? (Pause)
ELIAS: Quite distantly, correct.
JO: And are the two women I’m thinking of the same person? (Pause)
ELIAS: No. These would be different focuses.
JO: Were they courtesans, both of them? (Pause)
ELIAS: Yes, you are correct.
JO: Could you please help me understand my relationship with my
friend Bill? I know he was there, and that we’re continuing some
kind of learning now. (Pause)
ELIAS: You are engaging a situation in bleed-through action of
focuses that allows you the opportunity to be moving in the direction of
addressing to issues that are held within both focuses, and in this you
may each lend energy and supportiveness to each other in the recognition
that each of you addresses similar situations, circumstances, and affectingness
of belief systems in this focus as you have held in that particular focus.
This is not to say that you both hold the same belief systems as each
other or are dealing with the same issues as each other, but in recognition
that you are both addressing to the same type of situation in both focuses
and that these focuses are very influencing of each other, this allows
you the opportunity to be exploring these issues and to be helpful to each
other.
In like manner to any other individuals that may be engaging each other
in two or several different focuses together, one may be engaging an issue
in the area of what you may term to be business, and within another time
period, that individual may be a type of ruler or landlord.
Therefore, certain aspects of the issues that they hold in both focuses
concern themselves with the same subject matter and therefore lend to more
of an ease of a bleed-through without reconstructing the energy in a different
manner. The other individual may be dealing with issues of family
and relationships, and this may be expressed in different manners within
these same two focuses.
Now; the issues that each of the individuals deal with are quite different
in nature, but they are both occupying the same two focuses and they both
engage each other within the same two focuses. Therefore, in recognition
of this, each of these individuals may be lending energy and supportiveness
to each other as they recognize that they are both being influenced by
the same focuses. Are you understanding?
JO: Yes. Is his name Marcellus, and is he a Roman captain?
(Pause)
ELIAS: Marchellus (correcting pronunciation), and you are correct
that he is within Roman soldiery.
JO: And Chuza — I’m not sure if that’s the way it’s pronounced
— who is typified as my husband, I don’t get the feeling that we were married.
And is that a focus of Cynthia? (Pause)
ELIAS: Correct. The pronunciation for this would be Q-zay’.
JO: Thank you. My original name was not Joanna. Was
it Jezebel?
ELIAS: No. This would be Jessaline.
JO: Could you spell that, please?
ELIAS: J-E-S-S-A-L-I-N-E.
JO: And I just wondered ... for one thing, I’d like to invite
you to paint any odd brush strokes on my canvas that you’d like, and also
to please tell me, is the imagery that I got with the bible salesman significant?
There was ark imagery and there was Nebuchadnezzar imagery and foot of
the cross imagery, and also the adulteress in the temple. Was that
me? (Pause)
ELIAS: Correct.
JO: And I will be investigating the other two examples of imagery.
Thank you.
ELIAS: Very good! I am encouraging of your effort in this
area.
JO: Thank you. I just wondered if ... (to Paul) yeah, go
ahead.
PAUL: I have a question, Elias, in this area too, with the Judea
focus that Joanne and I share where I’m her brother. You mentioned
to Vivien that I was a scribe. I connected as a sort of monk or religious
individual focused in religious issues. I got a name that I would
like to check with you, Hezie or Hezekiah. Is that accurate for that
focus? (Pause)
ELIAS: Hezekiah would be correct.
PAUL: Oh! And that begins with the letter H?
ELIAS: Correct.
PAUL: Interesting! And I also had imagery of this individual,
and I would describe him as a pleasant looking man, tall, over six-foot
tall, with rusty red but rusty brown brownish hair and a short, rusty brownish
beard. Is that an accurate description of this individual’s features?
(Pause)
ELIAS: You are correct. Length of hair would be approximately
to shoulder, and the form, although thin, is also muscular.
PAUL: Interesting. I’d like to jump ahead in time to the
French Revolution focus and some impressions that I got there. I
got two very clear images of a male and a female. I’m not sure that
they’re related. I’ll start with the male. I see someone who
has, again, shoulder-length hair, but this time it’s black, and this individual
is some sort of magistrate or some sort of official. (Pause)
ELIAS: Ah! This individual occupies a position of police.
PAUL: (Laughing) Oh, great! Interesting. So
this individual would be then, I guess as far as sides go during this time,
he would be on the side of the monarchy?
ELIAS: Correct, and the established government.
PAUL: Interesting, and he’s a fairly ... I’m just trying to find
the right word to describe his personality. He can be brutal in his
job.
ELIAS: I shall express to you that this particular individual
is not well thought of by other individuals occupying the position of the
Resistance. (pronounced with a decidedly French accent)
PAUL: Hmm. Okay, and I got the name Francois for this individual.
Is that anywhere near?
ELIAS: (Chuckling) This is quite amusing! Let me express
to you what you have connected to.
This individual occupies himself with a secret hobby of visitation of
a certain young lady — which would otherwise be within his custody — as
an expression of his position, (chuckling) and this individual lady, so
to speak, holds the name of Francoise.
PAUL: Oh.
ELIAS: You have connected with his fascination, not with his identification
of name! (Chuckling)
PAUL: (Laughing) Well then, let me get on to this young
lady with this name Francoise. I do get an image of an attractive,
blond woman. Would this be Francoise? (Pause)
ELIAS: No. What you are visualizing with this individual
is the focus of Elizabeth.
PAUL: Interesting! The last piece of information in this
focus is, I got the name Charlemagne as connected to the young blond woman.
I know that’s a male name, so I’m not sure how that name is connected to
this young blond woman. (Pause)
ELIAS: This is more of an identification of a type of expression.
Let me explain to you that your imagery is moving in the direction of expressing
itself more abstractly than necessarily literally. You are allowing
yourself to be connecting with your own imagery, but you are interpreting
this to yourself in colorful manners, that you may be more efficiently
connecting with certain personalities and elements of different individuals
within their expressions, offering you different angles, so to speak, of
their personality expressions. Therefore, look to this particular
word as more of an identification of a leaning in the direction of personality
expression, not necessarily in a literal sense of identification of name.
PAUL: That was very helpful. I knew with that name that
it wasn’t a reference to the historical figure of Charles the Great.
The name really had a meaning with this woman and was connected somehow,
and your explanation was very helpful there.
The last piece of imagery — I just remembered another one too — in this
focus was that I knew Ron/Olivia, and somehow was connected with him as
soldiers during the conflict, during the war, and there was one clear image
of a desperate, pitched battle on a hillside or a mountainside, by an ocean
or a lake, perhaps, and I was just wondering if you would comment on that
impression. (Pause)
ELIAS: Olivia engaged within certain activity in this time period
— for a very brief time framework — in the direction of aligning with soldiers.
Now; Olivia, within that particular focus, also held a brother who was
actively engaged within the king’s army. In this, there was one brief
encounter of Olivia in aligning with the brother merely for the situation
of loyalty to family. But in that particular focus, he was not aligning
with the political expression in the same manner that his brother moved
into, and this was creating of what you may term to be a rift in relationship
of these two individuals.
As I have expressed to you within your other imagery, you move in the
direction of abstraction, which allows you information, but not necessarily
at what you may consider to be literal or face value, for you are offering
yourself side glances to be peering into different angles of those individuals
that you are connecting with.
PAUL: Great. That was very helpful, and actually it felt
that way. And (unintelligible words) symbolic and abstract, so that’s
very helpful in helping me interpret that information. Jo?
JO: Yeah, I would just like to ask another question. I’m
having some trouble with the early years of Joanna’s life, and there seems
to be some contradictions, probably because I’ve been reading too much
history. But I was wondering if you could give me some clues that
would help me figure out the very earliest years, and particularly how
I became a courtesan, and how that could have happened during those times.
(Pause)
ELIAS: This was an offering of family, to be favorably engaged
by the individual occupying the throne at the time.
JO: Right. Can you describe how close I am to ... well,
I’m trying to connect myself with the historical figures, obviously.
Was I the cousin that John was uncomfortable about? And if you can
also tell me how I came to meet Magdalene, that would be very helpful.
(Pause)
ELIAS: In this relationship, you do not hold what you would term
to be closeness with the family member of cousin, and I may also express
that this individual engages activities secretly outside of the role and
position held and therefore moves within other circles, so to speak, unknown
to those within court, and this offers the opportunity to be engaging many
other individuals.
JO: Right. So I was a liaison into the court?
ELIAS: Not necessarily, for as I have stated, this action was
engaged secretly as to not be creating conflict and angering individuals
that hold power in relation to yourself.
JO: Okay. And Magdalene was of a similar situation, as her
family offered her up to the throne also?
ELIAS: Correct.
JO: Okay, thank you.
PAUL: Elias, would you like to take a break now, or should we
continue with our questions?
ELIAS: You may be continuing with your inquiries and we shall
be disengaging subsequent to a few of your continued inquiries, as I wish
not to be creating of taxing situation with Michael.
PAUL: I understand. That’s why I asked the question.
So we’ll just continue, and then we’ll finish up. Another question:
I’ve become aware, reading the information on focuses, that it feels like
this focus of Paul is a final focus. Is that correct? (Pause)
ELIAS: Correct.
PAUL: And also, with the information you’ve given to date on the
action of transition, it also feels as though
I have engaged that action also. Is that correct? (Pause)
ELIAS: Correct.
PAUL: So another question ... and this comes from interacting
with Margot a little bit and reading some of her information, the session
where she asks a question and you mention that 23 years previous to the
time she asked her question that she had started the action of transition.
I was wondering if you would offer any information about the symptoms or
traits that indicate this beginning of transition. In other words,
is there a traumatic event that occurs to trigger it, or are there gradual
things that occur to begin this action of transition while still physically
focused?
ELIAS: This would be dependent upon the individual. At certain
times with certain individuals, they may be choosing to launch themselves,
so to speak, into this action of transition with some event within their
focus that may be considered significant, although this is not the rule.
It is merely dependent upon the individual, their intent, and their choice
of expression.
Some individuals within physical focus lean more in the direction of
creating much drama within their expressions, and in that situation, those
individuals may be creating of more flamboyant entrances into the action
of transition. At times, other individuals may be creating an ease
and gradual movement into this action.
Therefore, as I have stated to you, it is quite individual in how you
are moving into this particular action.
I shall express to you that you have chosen to be engaging this action
within four years previous to this present now within this focus, and not
necessarily creating of one individual event that would be marking of your
movement into this action, although creating many different elements within
your focus and affecting of your perception within that particular year
that you may be noticing as indicative of your movement and your choice
of this action of transition.
PAUL: Then that would explain why, in that period of 1994 and
thereafter, there were so many changes that I have gone through.
ELIAS: Correct.
PAUL: Interesting. Thank you for that information.
I have another question for you, and I think I’ve debated this with Vicki
too. I don’t think I’ve talked to Mary; maybe I have. But anyway,
given that you offer information, in your
terms, within the intent of the least distortion, are you to be considered
an infallible source? (Elias chuckles, and Paul laughs)
JO: Can we believe what you tell us? (Laughing)
ELIAS: I shall express to you that infallible implies an absolute,
and in this there may not be any infallible element within consciousness,
for there are no absolutes.
Therefore, I may express to you that the information that I offer to
you is correct within its translation and is offered for your understanding
of your reality, but as to an expression of infallible, which is your projection
of your idea of gods, this would be incorrect, for this is offering the
idea that there are certain expressions that may not be changed, and this
would not be correct.
There is no absoluteness within essence. It is merely not possible
to be translating to you the lack of absoluteness within the confines of
your language, for your language itself implies certain absolutes.
This be the reason that I am encouraging of you to be conceptualizing in
assimilating this information, for language is a translation which is quite
limiting at times.
PAUL: Well, you just read my mind because I was going to ask you
about the conceptual sense, which is probably what we’re all using when
we read this type of information. And just for the record, I just
want to state that as I’ve worked with it for the last year, it’s become
clear to me that it’s an elegant and subtle description of subjective reality
that does hold the least distortion. So, I am quite taken with it
and find it quite beautiful, a quite beautiful expression! So I just
wanted to say that.
Another question I have in this area too is not about distortion or
infallibility, but in session — I think it’s #220 — you mention that there
are few essences of the Sumafi family physically
engaging energy exchanges. I know of Elias. I know Ron engages
Paul/Patel, as we call him. How many others are there of this type
of physical energy exchange presently?
ELIAS: Within this present time period, within your physical dimension,
in objective expression, there would be, of the Sumafi family, (pause)
throughout your globe, seven in number of essences which engage this type
of energy exchange.
PAUL: Well, that’s a fewer number than I would have thought.
Are a number of them in the continents of Russia and Asia? (Pause)
ELIAS: There are energy exchanges occurring within several different
continents upon your physical planet, with the exception of your Arctics,
your Australian, and presently, your South American.
PAUL: Well, Elias, thank you for that.
A follow-up question I’ve been meaning to ask you for a while is, you
use the term “dimension” to refer to our world, and I wonder if you would
clarify, when you use the term dimension, are you referring to only the
planet Earth, or are you also referring to what we conventionally conceive
of as our physical universe?
ELIAS: Your physical universe; not merely your planet, but all
that you view physically within what you know to be as your universe.
PAUL: Thank you. So therefore, the shift is only occurring
on this planet. Is that correct?
ELIAS: It is occurring within this particular universal space
of this physical dimension, and in this, for the most part, your physical
planet is that which holds the expression of essences physically focused.
PAUL: Are you saying that there are no other planets in what we
call our universe that hold physically focused essences at present in this
time framework?
ELIAS: I am NOT. I have expressed to you “for the most part,”
not that you are the ONLY physically focused essences within this physical
universe dimension.
PAUL: Okay, that’s good, ‘cause that would have been quite a shock
to me! (Elias chuckles)
Another question, Elias, is regarding the essence of Patel and the focus
of Paul that Ron interacts with. In your terms and in your definition,
you say that you’re (inaudible). I’m using the wrong term, but the
primary portion of your focus is focused in what you term Regional Area
4. Is Patel also primarily focused in Regional Area 4?
ELIAS: Correct.
PAUL: Thank you. Another question on my list of many questions
is, you mention in — I couldn’t find the session number — but you have
mentioned previously that the action of this shift in consciousness moves
away from our current “definition of spirituality
into a more realistic expression of what you may term spirituality.”
Could you elaborate on this more realistic expression of spirituality?
ELIAS: A more realistic expression of spirituality is to be incorporating
ALL of you, which also would encompass all of your physical expressions
and the acceptance of all of your physical expressions, which you — within
your belief systems — move in the direction of denying physical expressions
as not being an element of spirituality. In this, the acceptance
of the entirety of self in all of its expressions and all of its creations
would be the definition of spirituality, not merely the expressions of
non-physical aspects of essence, or that which you term to be self.
PAUL: So that would reinforce the idea that it’s important to
embrace our physical nature in all of its many facets.
ELIAS: Quite!
PAUL: In the context of a more realistic expression of spirituality,
that includes all the things that go along with being physically focused
in this beautiful area that we call Regional Area 1, I guess.
ELIAS: Yes, and the recognition that there is no separation within
your physical expression either, that you are connected and inter-connected
with all that you create within your physical dimension. The physical
elements of your expressions are equal in the expression of your spirituality,
so to speak. It is the expression of the ALL of you, not merely one
aspect of you that you view to be removed from yourself or outside of yourself
non-physically focused, as what you think of as a higher self, which I
have expressed many times previously, you do not hold a higher self!
You already ARE your highest expression. You merely do not incorporate
all of you into your expression of your spirituality, and as this shift
in consciousness is accomplished, you shall be realizing of all that is
within the new definition of spirituality, incorporating all of your focuses
and ALL of the aspects of your physical manifestations.
PAUL: So this more realistic expression of spirituality includes
an equilibrium, perhaps, of the objective and subjective selves.
Is that correct?
ELIAS: Correct.
PAUL: And it would seem that a complementary aspect of that would
be also an equilibrium between intellect and intuition.
ELIAS: Correct; a balance.
PAUL: Great. Thank you. That was very helpful.
I do have another question about some information you’ve given on the inner
senses, and it’s from session 162, and you say, “You have been offered
exercises to exercise your empathic sense, your sense of conceptualization,
and also your inner sense of tone and touch, this being what you have exercised
with our example of clarity.” That sort of confuses me, and I wonder
if you would clarify — in the clarity exercise — the inner sense of tone
and touch. What do you mean by that? (Pause)
ELIAS: Tone is different from sound. Tone is a vibrational
quality, and in this, your outer sense is a physical mirror image in its
quality of connecting with sound. Within, in the inner senses, tone
is the vibrational qualities that are held within consciousness, which
you may access, and this may offer you information to the different qualities
of different expressions of essence, although this particular type of tapping
into within inner senses is more difficult for your understanding, for
this is requiring of more translation within your thought process, for
if you are allowing yourself to be accessing in conjunction with your conceptualization,
you may more easily be understanding what you are accessing.
Certain elements of consciousness are much more difficultly translated
into your physical language. Your thought processes are also a form
of physical language. It is a translation of energy, and this is
your means of communication to yourself and to other individuals, within
physical terms. But much of consciousness is expressed through tone,
and this is not so very easily translated into your thought energy.
Therefore, it is not as easily accessed, although it is possible and you
do hold the ability within physical focus to be accessing this information.
The point of the exercise in clarity is to be allowing you the opportunity
to be manipulating outer senses, which may also offer you more of an understanding
of how to be manipulating inner senses more efficiently and to be using
your inner senses in conjunction with each other as you use your outer
senses in conjunction with each other, but you do not allow yourselves
to be efficiently manipulating your OUTER senses, which you are quite familiar
with!
Therefore, I have offered that particular exercise, that you may become
more familiar with manipulating these senses that you hold familiarity
with, and in this you may offer yourself the opportunity to more efficiently
manipulate your inner senses, which shall be offering you more information
within consciousness, and also, it shall be helpful to you in manipulating
energy within the action of this shift.
PAUL: Great. That was very helpful in terms of tone, Elias.
That clears up your reference there in the sense of tone, but could you
comment on the comment you made about tone and touch? Touch seems
so physically focused, and tone doesn’t. I can understand the word
tone in terms of subjective state, but touch seems so physical. Is
the word touch connected to an inner sense somehow?
ELIAS: Yes. This also moves in the direction of empathic,
although it is slightly different from the empathic sense, for it moves
more in the direction of the allowance of connection with other aspects
of consciousness and other essences in mergence.
Just as within your objective physical terms, you look to your sense
of touch as an expression of connection with another individual or any
other object or element within your physical focus, within inner senses
this also would be the case, but within the expression of mergence, which
allows you to be accessing more information through experience. This
may be, as I have stated, moved into in conjunction with your empathic
sense and may be offering you more fullness in the area of experiencing
other elements of consciousness, not merely other essences or other individuals
as focuses of essence.
PAUL: Thank you. That’s very helpful. I just have
one more question for today. I appreciate all of the answers you’ve
given us both, and I have a lot to think about. I believe in session
185, when you were discussing the shift and the baseline of the shift,
acceptance and accepting belief systems, you mentioned that there is a
small tribe ... I’m not sure what you said specifically, but a small
tribe that has essentially accomplished the action of the shift.
So my question to you is, does that mean that they now practice what you
have been describing as acceptance? (Pause)
ELIAS: They are practicing in reality many of the elements of
this shift in consciousness, in their abilities and allowing themselves
enough of their own widening of awareness to be allowing themselves to
move in and out of experiences that are held to be in conjunction with
this shift in consciousness. Those experiences that you individuals
presently move in the direction of exploration with, they are already experiencing
as common ground of their everyday existence, although they have not entirely
moved into the fullness of acceptance of belief systems within your linear
time period yet.
In this, I shall express to you that they ARE moving quite close to
this expression of the acceptance of belief systems, and as you en masse
move more into the action of this shift in consciousness, this also lends
energy to that expression of their acceptance of belief systems, which
also lends energy to YOUR acceptance of YOUR belief systems.
PAUL: What continent or region would you say this group of people
are on?
ELIAS: This would be in the area of your South America.
PAUL: Interesting. One final question, Elias, on acceptance
and the total lack of judgment. I’m still ... I guess many of us
are still struggling to understand how we can hold belief systems and yet
still engage this action of acceptance, which is the lack of judgment.
So my question is, what type of belief systems will there be to support
acceptance? In other words, these belief systems of right and wrong
and good and bad will certainly be neutralized. So what type of belief
systems, what birds in our bird cage will exist to support this notion
of acceptance?
ELIAS: You shall not continue to hold the birds within the cages.
You shall merely hold the cage.
PAUL: Wow. Excellent!
ELIAS: I shall be disengaging this day, for I wish not to be taxing
of Michael further. Therefore, I offer to you each this day great
affection, and express to you much encouragement in your movements.
I offer to you much energy and lovingness, and bid you each a very fond
au revoir.
PAUL: Thank you.
JO: Au revoir!
Elias departs at 4:03 PM.
Vic’s note: When I first listened to this session, I assumed that
the audio difficulties were because Paul and Jo were using a speaker phone.
However, they assure me they weren’t. So, it remains a mystery as
to the inaudible parts of this tape, of which there are more than are indicated.
Some were cleared up by Paul and Jo.
