Participants: Mary (Michael) and Lissette (Roi).
Elias arrives at 10:37 AM. (Arrival time is 24 seconds)
ELIAS: Good morning!
LISSETTE: Good morning!
ELIAS: (Chuckling) We meet again!
LISSETTE: Yes! I have some questions for you.
ELIAS: Very well.
LISSETTE: Okay. The last time we talked, you said that I
repeated a pattern so I could study a problem from all different angles,
and I wonder if these women I’m seeing are other focuses of mine, and are
part of what you were talking about. I see a woman in India, and
she has gotten away, apparently, from her abusive family situation, but
she’s sort of wandering around, not really being a part of anything, but
free from the abusive relationship she was in. And then I see a Polynesian
woman or a woman from Thailand or something, and I also see a Chinese situation.
Are these other focuses of mine?
ELIAS: Yes, you are correct. Each of these individuals are
other focuses that you hold in this dimension, and you draw these focuses
to yourself, that you may allow yourself to view their experiences and
correlate the similarities in your movement and the movement that they
are creating.
Be aware that your situations that you create and your movement may
objectively appear differently, for you may be creating different types
of imagery objectively, but underlying, you are all addressing to similar
beliefs and situations within each of your focuses.
LISSETTE: Okay, that’s what I don’t like about what I’m seeing.
I see the similarities, and I don’t like the way they go, and that’s what
I want to break; I want to break that pattern. So, that’s what I
was wondering about.
I also opened up a business with very good expectations, or I am happy
about it, and I am very calm about everything. It’s going alright,
but many weird things are happening, and I am taking them with a very unusual
calm and equanimity in me.
I wonder why all these things are happening, what I’m doing to make
them happen, and if I’m moving in harmony with my intent.
ELIAS: I shall express to you first of all, yes, you are moving
in harmony with your intent.
LISSETTE: In harmony?
ELIAS: Yes. Now; in this, firstly I shall express to you
that within this time framework, there are many, many energy surges occurring
in relation to this shift in consciousness, as you are inserting this shift
into your objective reality presently.
This action may be quite likened to the physical action of birth.
It is an emergence, and therefore, there are also thrusts of energy to
be moving the subjective knowings, remembrances, and allowances of actions
and creations into your objective reality and awareness.
Now; the reason that you may view within your perception that you are
not moving within harmony in your intent is that you are noticing areas
and situations and creations that you draw yourself to or that you create
or that you participate within that appear to be conflicting or difficult.
These types of creations are the presentment of challenges, and in actuality,
you present yourself with quite familiar and what may be commonly termed
in your societies as usual difficulties, that you may allow yourself to
view them as challenges, and that you may recognize realistically that
you do hold choices.
Now; at times, these challenges may be presented within your reality
as frustrations, in a manner of speaking, for as you are viewing your ability
to be altering your perception, you are also merely beginning in this alteration
of perception, and in these beginning stages, in a manner of speaking,
you are practicing. Therefore, in the practice, there are also many
time frameworks in which you observe yourself slipping into automatic responses.
But the encouraging aspect of all of this movement is that you are allowing
yourself to notice, to recognize, and to view that regardless of your movement
into automatic responses, you also may validate yourself that you are not
continuously moving in the expression of automatic responses, and you validate
your movement as objective evidence of the harmony that you ARE creating
in allowing yourself to view, more and more, your ability to be drawing
yourself to situations and interactions that previously would have been
addressed in automatic responses and quite influenced by strongly held
belief systems, whereas now you are allowing yourself movement with less
conflict, with little trauma, and with much more clarity.
I shall also express to you that in this particular situation with you
individually, you are experiencing an aspect of impatience also, (laughing)
in which you wish to be accomplishing this movement much more rapidly,
for you ARE allowing yourself to view your accomplishments. You ARE
allowing yourself to validate your trust and your acceptance within yourself.
You ARE offering yourself evidence of the differences within the expression
of your perception, and you simultaneously are experiencing an element
of anxiousness and restlessness, that you wish to be reaching your finish
line, so to speak! (Laughing)
LISSETTE: Yes, that’s definitely true! That’s how I am!
(Laughing)
ELIAS: This provides you with a tremendous element of motivation!
Let me also express to you, there is no finish line! (Laughing)
LISSETTE: Yes, I’ve been reading about that, and it’s been an
eye-opener. But you still want to move! You want to keep finding
more things, and just move! You want to manipulate your energy, I
guess.
ELIAS: (Grinning) You are correct, and in this, let me present
to you hypothetically the notion of what you shall be accomplishing if
you WERE to be creating a finish line, so to speak. What challenge
would you present yourself with?
LISSETTE: None.
ELIAS: And I may express to you, you might be quite bored with
your reality were you not to be offering yourself the opportunity to explore
and to BE challenged!
But the trick in this situation, in manipulating your energy, is to
be discovering how to be altering your perception in a manner that continues
to be creating the challenge WITHOUT the conflict and WITH the incorporation
of continuous fun! (Chuckling)
LISSETTE: Well, that’s what I want to find out!
ELIAS: You are already moving in this direction. You are
already offering yourself evidences of this, and you offer yourself also
the opportunity to extend this expression into all areas of your focus.
But be remembering in this, there are many mass belief systems which
hold enormous strength in energy, and moving outside of these mass belief
systems is a challenge in itself, for the manner in which you move outside
of the influence of the mass belief systems is to allow yourself the action
of more and more familiarity with yourself and how you align with these
mass belief systems, for you are responsive to your individual beliefs.
In this, let me express to you clearly, you shall not be tremendously
influenced and responsive — within your perception or how you create your
reality — to mass belief systems if you do not align with those mass belief
systems, and you may quite easily view objectively those beliefs that you
do not align with en masse and those that you do, regardless of your identification
within your thought processes, for your behavior shall bear out what you
genuinely do hold in beliefs.
LISSETTE: So what you’re talking about is, the way I act or what
I choose to do, besides what I feel is my belief, will lead me to what
you call discovery, or...?
ELIAS: Yes.
LISSETTE: Is that it?
ELIAS: Yes. Let me offer you a very common and quite simple
example. There are many, many, many individuals presently that offer
themselves information and have adopted beliefs in the philosophies of
metaphysics.
In this, many of these individuals shall express outwardly to other
individuals — and shall express even to themselves quite definitely — that
they have moved away from religious belief systems, and they shall express
quite definitely that they are not affected by the mass belief systems
in the expressions of religious beliefs.
Now; these same individuals shall also be expressing behavior quite
similarly to individuals that openly align with religious belief systems
that are expressed en masse. Their behavior is the same. Their
expression in words and thought is that they do not align with these belief
systems and therefore they are not affected, but they are. For in
this, they may be creating the same types of behaviors in judgments, in
expectations, in interactions as other individuals.
They merely couch it in different terms, and in this, they camouflage
the expression of their own beliefs that they align with, and delude themselves
into the thought process that they are not being affected by mass belief
systems.
LISSETTE: Yeah, which is worse.
ELIAS: (Chuckling) It is different.
LISSETTE: Yeah, okay. They also do it with food, with all
kinds of things.
ELIAS: You are quite correct. I have merely offered you
one example, but this occurs within very many expressions.
LISSETTE: I guess we all do it, to one extent or another.
ELIAS: You are correct, and this is the reason that you are experiencing
what you are experiencing now, for as you ARE inserting this shift in consciousness
into your objective reality now, you are also realizing in objective terms
the action of widening your awareness and what this is in actuality — that
you are becoming more and more familiar with yourself, with your beliefs,
with your behaviors. You may not address to your beliefs if you are
not recognizing what they are!
LISSETTE: Exactly.
ELIAS: Therefore, you present yourself with many different scenarios,
with many different situations and interactions, and you draw many different
types of energy to yourself, that you may allow yourself to view and to
recognize your own expressions, your own behaviors, and therefore recognize
the influence of your own beliefs.
Once you have recognized your own beliefs and your own automatic responses,
you may present yourself with choices, and this is the key that alters
your perception, and as you are aware, your perception is the tool which
creates your reality.
All of these actions move together in an expression of harmony, and
they are evidences to you objectively — not subjectively — that you ARE
moving and that you ARE widening your awareness and that you ARE allowing
yourself to be creating your reality much more intentionally objectively.
And not merely you shall be noticing; other individuals shall notice also.
LISSETTE: Yes. This makes me think that sometimes I sort
of work backwards, (Elias grins) because I don’t see a belief, but I see
that I am not seeing the choices, and what I do is, I ask for the choices
to come to me, and they do, and I apply those choices and it works out,
but then I hit myself with the same stone because I’m still not seeing
the belief that’s holding me back.
ELIAS: Now; allow yourself to stop and to view the efficiency
of your own action, for in this, I have been expressing recently to many
individuals this very concept.
You are all so very familiar with complicating your reality. You
all move so very automatically into the expressions of analyzation and
of the dissection of yourselves and your beliefs. You focus your
attention at times so very intensely upon these bird cages and the examination
of each individual bird that you are forgetful that the point of viewing
these birds is to be opening the door of the cage and releasing them.
LISSETTE: So what you’re saying is, maybe I don’t even have to
see the bird? I just have to let it go?
ELIAS: At times, yes, although let me express to you once again,
how may you address to a belief if you do not have an awareness that the
belief exists?
LISSETTE: That’s my question!
ELIAS: Now; what I am expressing to you in this is, let us look
to the bird cage once again. You recognize that the bird cage exists.
LISSETTE: Yeah.
ELIAS: You may turn your attention to viewing the number of birds
that are confined within this cage. You may also allow yourself to
recognize which birds appear to you to be affecting of your perception,
but it is unnecessary for you to continue to hold your attention upon the
bird itself.
It is unnecessary for you to be examining in tremendous detail this
bird, for the effect of the bird shall automatically be presented within
your reality in many, many, many diverse expressions, for you shall automatically
present this to yourself without thought, without objective intention.
You shall merely create imagery within your focus day by day, in a manner
of speaking, in which you find yourself viewing the influence of this particular
bird once again.
Let me offer you another example. Hypothetically, let us express
that you are presenting to yourself that you choose to be addressing to
your behavior in what you identify as an expression of temper, in your
physical terms.
In this, initially you do not express to yourself a thought process:
“I shall now address to the bird of temper within this particular bird
cage, and therefore I shall present myself with many scenarios in which
I shall engage this particular aspect and this element of my behavior.”
No!
You begin noticing, in your very physical terms, that it appears to
you, within many of your interactions with other individuals or with situations,
that you appear to be creating a behavior that involves a temper.
Once you have created several scenarios and examples of the expression
of this temper, you begin questioning your behavior and your creations,
and you notice: “Ah! I am engaging my temper quite often within this
time. Therefore, I must be presenting myself with this issue and
attempting to be addressing to this situation.”
Once you have allowed yourself the recognition objectively of what you
are presenting yourself with, this is not to say that you shall cease to
present the imagery. You may continue to be presenting this imagery
to yourself, and you may continue to draw to yourself situations and interactions
in which you engage your temper.
Now; in this example, it is unnecessary for you to be continuously examining
and analyzing and creating dissection of this particular bird. You
have already noticed. You have already recognized.
In this, as you allow yourself the presentment of your situations, and
you are NOT concentrating your energy upon the bird itself, so to speak,
you shall also loose your hold upon your energy, and this is what you have
been presenting to yourself recently in evidence of your ability.
LISSETTE: Could you talk to me a little bit about my intent, or
are you going to leave me to fend for myself? (Laughing)
ELIAS: Ha ha ha ha! We have spoken of your creation and
action in your intent in your interaction with other individuals, which
first of all, I shall be acknowledging of you objectively in your creation
of your acquisition of your new business venture, so to speak, (chuckling)
for this moves quite in conjunction with your intent.
You choose in this focus, in your participation in this shift, to be
moving within the expressions of some mass belief systems, and offering
the example — and partially information through that example to other individuals
— that the action of this shift concerning beliefs, and even the expression
of mass beliefs, is not to be railing against these beliefs, but to be
allowing yourselves an acceptance, which allows you to move within them
freely and offers you the freedom of choice.
Now; in this, we have spoken previously of your direction within the
mass belief systems incorporated in this time framework of the health benefit,
so to speak, in the consumption of certain foods, correct?
LISSETTE: Yeah.
ELIAS: And in this, you even identify certain foods as “health
foods.” (Chuckling)
LISSETTE: Yeah, but I see also that it’s all in your head.
ELIAS: You are correct, in your common vernacular, and I shall
express to you that as you are already aware, this is a mass belief which
has been acquired. This is not to say that this is wrong. It
is a choice and it is an expression of a mass belief.
But you may be incorporating movement within that mass belief, but not
aligning with it. You may be allowing yourself to be moving in the
flow of a mass belief system AND you may be creating acceptance of that,
in which you no longer are expressing judgments concerning any of the aspects
of that belief, and simultaneously, you may be creating your own expression
of creativity even within the belief.
In this, in very physical terms, incorporating your individual example,
you hold an awareness that the idea or the concept of certain foods holding
healing qualities is a belief, or that certain foods are more healthy than
other foods or are more beneficial to your physical body than other foods,
and you recognize that these are beliefs also. But you choose to
be involving yourself physically, objectively, within the production of
this very expression.
LISSETTE: Yep.
ELIAS: In this, you offer yourself and other individuals a very
objective opportunity and example, in relation to the little sapling, to
be viewing that it matters not.
You may choose to be participating in the consumption of what is identified
as health foods, or you may not. You may be consuming these types
of cuisines, so to speak, and you may be incorporating that into your energy
manipulation if you are so choosing, and you may specifically direct the
energy of these food substances to your benefit, and it matters not.
The point is that you recognize that this is your choice, and that this
choice is not good or bad or better or worse than any other choice.
It is your preference, and preferences are not good or bad. It is
merely what you choose.
Therefore, why shall you not create your movement and your expression
of your creativity within this particular direction, regardless that it
is expressed as a mass belief system?
There is a difference in perpetuating the energy of a mass belief system
in participation with it, and participating in expressions concerning mass
belief systems in the acceptance of those beliefs.
The perpetuation of a belief, individually or en masse, incorporates
judgments.
I have expressed many times, you may be accepting of a belief and this
is not the elimination of the belief, nor is this the expression that you
shall no longer incorporate an opinion or a preference or even feelings
and emotions with regard to that particular belief or expressions of it,
but you are not creating a judgment.
Therefore, you create a free flow of energy and an allowance of your
own expression, and the allowance of other individuals’ expressions and
choices and preferences also. Are you understanding?
LISSETTE: I guess I’m working towards it.
ELIAS: Yes, you are, and I am acknowledging of you in this.
Therefore, recognize that you ARE moving into a balance, you ARE moving
into the creation of harmony, and you ARE, very much so, moving in your
intent in harmony and creating quite efficiently presently.
LISSETTE: Okay. I have one more question,
and it concerns my daughter, the middle one. What would be the best
way for me to approach her attitude (Elias grins) in a loving, helpful
— if she wants to accept it — way? What’s the most helpful approach
to her apathy with everything, and her fear of trying anything, and just
sitting there?
ELIAS: (Chuckling) Now; I shall express to you quite simply,
and I may also express that many other individuals may be benefiting from
this question presently also.
In this, the most helpful expression that you may offer objectively
is to not be reinforcing of your own judgment, and therefore also not offering
the payoff which is being received by the other individual.
Recognize that you are viewing the creation of this individual through
your perception and through your beliefs, and in this, you are creating
a judgment, which may be expressed in concern, it may be expressed in lovingness,
it may be expressed in exasperation or frustration — it matters not.
In actuality, what is being expressed is a judgment — that you are uncomfortable
with the choice that this individual is creating.
This is not the choice that YOU would be choosing. This is not
your preference, and therefore you are creating a judgment in relation
to the other individual, but they are creating their choices in the most
beneficial manner to themselves.
In this, she is creating this situation and what you identify or perceive
as “attitude,” (laughing) although she does not perceive this as attitude!
(Chuckling)
LISSETTE: No, she just wants to have fun.
ELIAS: And in this, she also receives a payoff from you in continuing
in this type of expression, for you continue to be responsive!
LISSETTE: Yeah, because I see that she wants to do many things,
but she’s so fearful that she doesn’t do anything, so she just stays home
and has fun.
ELIAS: And this is her choice.
LISSETTE: Yeah, I know, but it does exasperate me!
ELIAS: Quite! But this, once again, is an expression in
which your behavior shall bear out your alignment with mass belief systems.
LISSETTE: You’re right, and the answers are coming to me clearly,
and they’re so different from what I believe I should do that I am just
resisting this information that I am getting!
ELIAS: Ha ha! For the behaviors and the beliefs are quite
familiar!
LISSETTE: Oh, definitely! And physical!
ELIAS: Absolutely! HA HA HA! And in this....
LISSETTE: It’s not very funny to me! (Laughing) Okay....
ELIAS: I am recognizing....
LISSETTE: How would you explain, Elias, all of these little animals
I’m creating in my business and machines not working and all of that? (Elias
chuckles) And a robber came in, and he opened every gate and broke
them open and everything. He came in, walked around, and left!
ELIAS: (Chuckling) And this is what we have been speaking
of previously this day, in that you are presenting yourself with quite
common expressions in objective imagery, and in these expressions of imagery,
you are offering yourself the opportunity to view the alteration in your
perception and how you are altering your behavior.
LISSETTE: Oh yeah. That’s definitely true. I just
don’t want to see any of these things happening anymore. (Elias laughs)
I’ve had enough in two months, one behind the other, all at once!
ELIAS: Ha ha ha! And I shall express to you that as you
genuinely create a fatigue of your continuous creation and presentment
of these types of elements, and also your participation with your daughter
and her “attitude,” (laughing) as you genuinely tire of these elements,
you shall discontinue your creation of them or your participation with
them.
LISSETTE: Okay, they must be leaving then, because I am genuinely
tired and bored of the same thing!
ELIAS: HA HA!
LISSETTE: Well, is there anything else you can tell me that would
help me on my journey?
ELIAS: I shall express to you a recognition of your frustration
in certain situations which you are drawing to yourself. I offer
to you an expression of energy in encouragement, and I shall continue to
offer you my expression of energy that may be helpful to you.
In reminder, other individuals create their reality, and you hold no
responsibility in this. Their reality is not broken. Therefore,
it needs not be fixed. Turn your attention to self and concern yourself
with what YOU are creating, and allow other individuals to be creating
what they will.
LISSETTE: I will.
ELIAS: Very well.
LISSETTE: Thank you very much.
ELIAS: I offer to you great affection, Roi, and I anticipate our
continued interaction. Be upon your lookout, in a manner of speaking,
for my expression of my energy to you! (Chuckling)
LISSETTE: Thank you. You’re not the one that has been giving
me electric shocks, are you?
ELIAS: HA HA HA! And....
LISSETTE: It’s very annoying! (Laughing)
ELIAS: And, I may express to you a slight tingling which you may
be noticing of! (Chuckling) Very well. I shall discontinue
attempting to be gaining your attention in annoyance. (Grinning)
LISSETTE: Oh, thanks! Not that way!
ELIAS: Ha ha! Very well. I shall be compliant.
LISSETTE: Make it nicer! (Elias laughs) Okay, bye.
ELIAS: To you, in lovingness, au revoir.
Elias departs at 11:29 AM.
