FAREWELL FOR AWHILE
September 15, 2002

We have asked to speak with you today because a threshold has been reached and it is now time to begin the Harvest. We will begin the Harvest with a relatively small group of you and then will return for still more. This will go on for the next few months until all of you who have not committed to staying on the ground will be lifted into another level and then some of you will come and go from that place for the time remaining until the Pole Shift. This "holding zone" is not a place on or inside of the planet, but another place, on another frequency band, where you can be worked with more directly and facilitated in the completion of your own transformation. Our beloved messenger will be included in this first group, but will be one of the ones who comes and goes until all is complete, so you do not need to be concerned about her availability.

The "Booster Rocket" event will occur later this year, but some of you will be lifted even before then. There is a scheduled time for each and every one of you, and when it comes your turn, you will know it with absolute clarity and certainty. You will not have to tell anyone anything, for if you need to inform anyone, we will give you that ability when the time comes. You see, there is no need to anticipate any of this. Just trust in the flow of your life and all will unfold perfectly, without harm to anyone. We have the ability to take people and return them to nearly the same moment in which they disappeared. When your transformation is complete, you will have the ability to change form to suit the circumstances, so if you need to look like you look at present, you will look like that. If it serves the greater good for you to look like something or someone else, you will look like that. You will all be very adapted to your circumstances, and as they flow and change, so you will also flow and change.

This communication will be the last one for Volume Two. There will be a hiatus in these Messages while this Harvest project proceeds, but Volume Three will be given when it is time for that. It will be different in content, tone, and information than these first two, and that is all we will say about that for now. So please do not be asking for the next Message. There will be a time of no Messages for awhile, as that is part of the Plan.

In the interim, many things will be playing out on the planetary surface, and it is precisely for that reason that we will be silent for awhile. Those on the surface have to experience those times in certain ways, in keeping with the plan for their life, and they must do so unaided by us in order to have the fullest possible experience for themselves. It would only diminish the intensity and richness of those times if we were there, commenting on every development. These two volumes will be available, for those who have "eyes to see" and "ears to hear." They will suffice to give the roadmap for those times. Then, when things have played out to a certain degree, we will again be heard from, in order to prepare people for the final stages of the drama and its conclusion. Our counsel to you would be to listen within at all times, during all activities in which you find yourself. Some animals have the ability to point their ears in different directions independently. We suggest you do the same. Point one ear outward, to receive the data from your environment, and point one ear inward, constantly listening to the whisperings of your intuition and "knowing." That inner voice is quiet and subtle most of the time. It is not like it is shouting at you. It is more gentle than that, so you must be able to hear it above the noise that surrounds you.

When your time comes, you will know it. Some of you know that you will be on the ground through the years ahead, because your particular part in the drama requires that. Do not feel either more or less special because of that. Everyone is totally equal in their importance with regard to the Plan. No voice will carry more weight than any other. No life is more or less important than any other. To think or feel otherwise is a matter of the separated self or ego. Some of you still are wrestling with your self-worth issues, and need to make these kinds of comparisons, but in the end, you are who you came to be, and the best thing is to be the best expression of that intention that you can. So now, all things will be coming to a head and moving toward the eventual conclusion. The acceleration is upon you already and will become even more intense as time passes and the tasks surface for completion. You might imagine a person with a clipboard, studiously marking off each "task" in a list of things that have to occur. Each thing must take place, and each thing WILL take place in its perfect time and sequence.

We feel a certain excitement in contemplating that this day has arrived. The measures have been taken and each one of you has been " fitted" with the necessary "equipment" to complete the rest of your journey through the remaining years of 3D Earth and beyond. All of the resources – both inner and outer – that you will require are now stored up and available to be used. A vast amount of preparation has gone into this effort, spanning thousands of years. You have experienced many lives in order to be perfectly equipped for this one and what now comes. It is truly a "grand finale," and great opportunity for the richness and complexity of all of the themes and threads that will be playing out from now on. Regardless of where your life leads you, we promise you one thing: it will not be boring! This is an incredible time to be in a body on planet Earth, and you will have much to reflect upon when it has all drawn to a close.

So in a sense, today we are saying "farewell for awhile." We promise you that we will be back when it is time for us to do so. For those of you who are moving on to complete your transformation, it will be a time when you find yourselves actually among us, face to face. For those who remain on the ground, you will be assisted directly by those who complete their transformation and come and go from that point on. They will appear in your midst at the needed times, and will disappear when that assistance is no longer needed. It will be impossible to know from day to day what to expect, as there will be many surprises on many fronts. We assure you that each and every person will have the experiences they are supposed to have, as chosen by their Oversoul. There are no accidents, and there are no real losses, only change. There is absolute certainty that each and every one of you will reach the destination chosen by your Oversoul, and will do so perfectly--in the right time, in the right way. None of you will be left alone, regardless of the form your assistance and support team takes. You will meet others like yourself, and you will gradually form small clusters of like-minded people. It will happen naturally. There is no need to create pre-designed and preconceived communities. Follow the flow of your life, Remain rooted in the present. Deal fully with what presents to you in the moment. Remember that a moment is a unit of experience, not a unit of time. Live in the moment, moment by passing moment, and you will find yourself in exactly the right place at the right time.

In saying farewell for now, know that we are always with you, waking and sleeping, and we look forward to the time when you are ALL back with us once again.

CALM, GROUNDED, AND CENTERED
August 18, 2002

Well, now. The time of which we have spoken is close at hand. Before that occurs, we want to give you a last reminder – that this journey of yours is a PROCESS, not an event, and although you are reaching an important threshold, there is a journey to be made beyond that time, so please remember this and do not place yourself in a position of locked energy with regard to this "event."

We cannot emphasize too much that it is important to remain detached and to not get caught up in the drama that is unfolding all around you. The moment you engage with chaos, you get sucked into it. The moment you polarize to something you observe, you get locked into that which you polarize to. It is so important to remember – especially at times of great dramatic impact – that your safety lies within, that no solution that matters in the long run of things will be found outside of yourself. Your answers lie within. Even if you are not hearing "voices" or words, you do know – in each and every moment – what is true for you. You can access this knowing at any time. It is a feeling that you feel. Something will feel "right" or it will feel "off" or "wrong." Trust your feelings. Don't let anyone talk you out of them. It is not important that anyone else know what you feel. It is perfectly all right to keep your knowing to yourself, but don't let anyone sway you. There will be many attempts to talk you into adopting a certain attitude, but stay aligned with what you know as your own truth. You can carry it silently, but do not abandon it in order to accommodate anyone else.

We have been assessing things on your planet and we find two things are going on, neither of which come as a total surprise, given the "polarity game" and the lateness of the hour. First, the forces that use deception as their way of gaining polarity and taking energy from others have been succeeding in their plans for world domination. They are aided by those of higher densities of the same polarity and soon there will be an increase in their visibility. It is far too late to stop any of this, so we are just telling you this so you will understand what you see as it unfolds. They have succeeded so well, we must confess that it is rather humorous to us to see how easily they have made their way with so little resistance. However, we do know the "ending" of the story, and there does come a time when their "game" will be "up" and they will depart for another destination.

In the meantime, however, deception will be everywhere and on the increase from its present levels. That is why we emphasize that you go within for your "news." Everything is being manipulated to such an extent that nothing you read or hear is untouched, except possibly some of the material that comes through the clearest of channels. Those are few in number, and the greatest part of the channeled material that is available to you has been affected and corrupted until it is simply not true anymore. There will always be some noble sentiments sprinkled liberally about by all of these sources, but in the end, they are leading those who listen to them down a path that will only end in distrust and disappointment.

That being said, there are some events about to unfold that directly affect you and your world. We are here to support you and will have much more to say in the weeks ahead. There will be one more Message in this volume and then we will begin anew with Volume Three. The Messages are our gift to you and we hope that many more will find their way to reading them in the coming days, weeks and months. We are pleased to see how so many of you ARE taking our words seriously, and we note that the changes we have foretold are upon you. The "good news" is that the story has a happy ending. The "bad news" is that there are some relatively difficult days ahead for your planet and everything upon her. But that is not "news" to you at this point. We have been preparing you for a long time to receive the Grace that is available to you now. So many of you are "going with the flow" of change, and we are pleased that our words have in some way made that easier for you to do. You have been trained in the ways of surrender and your motto of "let go, let God" will serve you well in the times ahead.

The deceivers are massing now, and you will be hearing more from them of what they want you to hear and think. Each one will be claiming to have the "truth," the "inside story," and none of them will agree, but if you look behind the words, you will find the same background is there, no matter what "picture" is held up before your eyes. Do not be deceived. There are many predictions coming to a head in the next few months, and so many of them will fail to materialize. It is all part of how the deceivers get people to lose their trust in everything, so when the truth comes along, they throw that out, too. It is a way of getting people to give up all resistance to the coming tyranny, so they will more willingly play into the hands of those who are behind that scenario and scheme.

There is a children's story about a boy who got great fun out of warning the local people that a wolf was coming. It made him feel more powerful to see them scrambling about just because he convinced them that they were in danger. But when the wolf really DID come, the townspeople ignored him and they were all eaten alive. His false warnings caused them to mistrust him so totally that when there was a real danger to them, they ignored him and so they fell prey to the real wolf.

So you will be peppered with warnings about this danger and that danger and if you go running around as if they were something you could do anything about, you will find that nothing of what they say happens and then you will disregard the real warnings when they come. But if you tune into your inner voice and FEEL INTO THE VIBRATION, you will not be fooled. You will be able to tell when it "feels real," and whether you have to do anything at any given time. Many of you have already been feeling and responding to inner urges for change in your lives. Some of you have decided to move to a new place or leave an old relationship. Others are making many subtle changes in your perception and thinking and becoming clear of the chatter and noise of the world. The real changes are taking place within, where they are hidden. Because of the power of the physical senses, it is easy to be "outer directed" and to measure things by how they appear in the outer world. But your safety lies in being "inner directed" and by measuring with your subtle senses – how things FEEL to you, not how you "think" about them or what you hear from others, most especially the media.

We will not make predictions, other than to say that the time of the parting of the different destiny paths is nearly upon you. However, each of you has a plan for your life and each of you will have different experiences, so there is no prediction we can make that will be true for all of you, other than when the time is right, you will be called to your right place. Every detail of your life has been anticipated by your Oversoul. All of your "appointments with destiny" will be kept. Every last requirement will be met for the completion you are making with all of your other lives. You are already losing your memory capabilities and for some of you that is not convenient, but be encouraged by that sign that you are that much closer toward your desired destination. You are well along in your process and there is much Grace flowing. All you need to do is receive it.

Your inner knowing is your best armor against the deceptions. If something does not feel altogether true for you, TRUST that feeling. You must also trust in the plan for your life. You must trust that whatever you need to complete your life's purpose will be provided. That does not mean you will always like how it is wrapped, but every occurrence in your life is a true gift to help you complete your life in the way that was intended for you by your Oversoul. You exist as an extension of your Oversoul. You do not need techniques to activate or rearrange anything. Your life will bring you into perfect contact with the experiences needed for the fulfillment of your life's plan. Even those things that you might consider painful, unpleasant, or undesirable are still moving you toward the goal of completion. If unpleasant feelings arise, allow them to flow through you. Do not block them or repress them. That does not mean you have to act on them. Just allow them to flow through you.

A lot is being cleared at this time, and none of you is exempt from that. If you find yourself detaching more and more from the world around you, that is not a bad thing. That does not mean you are not a caring person. It just means you are becoming free from the influences of others as to how you should live your life. You can be your true self wherever you are. Just remember that you don't have to make a big noise about it. Just be it.

Things are beginning to intensify now and will continue to do so for the next few years, until all is complete. There has been a decision made to accelerate everything, which means that some of the things that we predicted would happen further out will now happen sooner. That means that BOTH kinds of things will be affected in this way – the things that you will be glad about and the other kind – the things that you might prefer didn't happen at all. For caring people like yourselves, it could get very difficult to avoid getting caught up in the coming drama, so detach. If you have to unplug the television set, do that. Put your time and energy into those things that nourish you, that bring you peace, and let your love flow. Polarization and resistance are two things that will greatly increase your discomfort, so we give you this simple exercise to do when you discover yourself getting caught up in the drama and chaos:

Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, just close your eyes and focus on your breath. Obviously, if you are driving a car or operating machinery, you don't want to do this until you have pulled off the road or stopped the machine, but even then, as soon as you can, disconnect from what "hooked" you and got you caught up in the drama. Close your eyes and focus on your breath. Deliberately take slow, deep breaths until you have regained a sense of your own self and are calm, grounded, and centered. Then very slowly open your eyes again and let yourself remain calm, grounded, and centered. Allow yourself to witness what is going on around you without getting caught up in it. If you find yourself getting "hooked" again, repeat the exercise. You may have to do this several times but do it. If you are in the midst of a heated conversation, do it. If the person insists on continuing the conversation while you have your eyes closed, hold up a finger or your hand, to indicate "Wait." This will help both of you. You will be setting an example that they can follow. "Wait."

You always have three choices: to do something, to not do something, or to wait for clarity before acting. Wait for clarity. There is very little in life that can't wait. If someone is bleeding to death in front of you, you wouldn't want to wait very long, but you must attain clarity more quickly in such circumstances. It is important to attain clarity before acting. Deepening your breathing is telling yourself that you are choosing calm over chaos. It is like a message to your body, "calm down." In the times ahead, it will be very important to remain calm, grounded, and centered.

There is nothing you can't handle if you remain rooted in the moment. We have spoken before about remaining rooted in the moment that is presenting, in what is also called the NOW. On Terra you will live in the NOW all of the time, so this is good practice for you.

A moment is a unit of experience. It has a beginning, a middle, and an end. You can feel when something begins to rise in energy in your life. It presents, then it swells to a climax, and then it recedes and resolves. That is a moment – from the time it arrives into your life until it recedes and resolves. Every moment arrives containing everything it needs for its completion. It unfolds perfectly, and even when you are in the midst of a challenging time, you can remain rooted in the moment and thus move through it with Grace. The more you can detach – the more you can ALLOW THE MOVEMENT – the more ease and comfort you will have in your journey through the days ahead. Resistance of any kind blocks the flow. You can remain rooted in your truth without resisting the flow that occurs all around you. Think of a tree with a stream flowing around it. The tree remains in place when it is rooted and grounded. Be that tree. This is not the same as stubbornness or resistance. Be rooted in the moment. Be rooted in your truth.

Keep your "inner ear" turned on and listening at all times. It helps to trust the flow of your life. If you feel overwhelmed by the speed of everything, just let it flow. Become still in the midst of the movement that is going on all around you. Let it flow. You are a great being, experiencing yourself as a little body. You are a great being who has helped create vast portions of the existing reality. Breathe. Center. Ground. Bring calm to yourself as a choice. Choose calm. Choose peace. Choose serenity.

"The Coming Storm" is almost at your door. Let the winds rage all around you. Be peace in the midst of the storm. Do it for yourself and your loved ones. Be the gift that you are. You don't have to change anything. Be yourself. That's gift enough.

COMMENTARY FROM LYARA:
After receiving this Message, an astute reader mailed me a question about an apparent conflict in the material. She pointed out that in the first part of the Message, the Hosts found it almost humorous that the power elite's plans were met with so little resistance, and in the latter part of the Message, they encouraged us to not resist what was going on around us. I asked for a clarification, and this is what they gave me:

A bit of clarification is in order, to clear up an apparent ambiguity in our most recent Message. As many of you may know, particularly astrologers, any particular quality or activity has the potential for a positive and a negative effect. For example, when you are considering the influences represented by a particular aspect in astrology, you can see the potentials for both a good quality and one that would not be considered good. Both can exist in the same aspect.

Just so with the concept of surrender. If you give up your resistance to a higher force in your life, the motives for your surrender must be considered in order to evaluate whether it is a positive thing or not, and the ultimate outcome is really what reveals the truth of it all. In the first example we gave, where we made note of the agenda of those with yearnings for global totalitarian power, we found it humorous to see how many people were willing to surrender their personal freedoms in return for some comfort and maintenance of their status quo. You COULD say that the same thing is true if one is being asked to give up resistance to the Creator’s agenda, but in the first case, you are surrendering to the wills of other people, who want something from you that meets their needs, and in the second case, you are being asked to surrender your experience of separation from the Creator, so that your personal will comes into better alignment with the divine purpose for your life. From our perspective, there is a very big difference, both in the motives involved and the outcomes.

In surrendering to the Will of the Creator, you actually create greater freedom for yourself because then you simply have to follow the flow of your life, instead of remaining locked into the limited possibilities of what you can imagine while still in the veiled state of consciousness. You open up the portals for more to appear in your life that would have been considered miraculous or magical when measured in your formerly limited view. In the state of giving up resistance to the flow of your life, you are moving out of fear into a state of Grace. You are surrendering your need to control everything in order to keep your fear at bay. You are moving more into acceptance and trust in the plan for your life.

In surrendering your freedoms to those in control of your world in return for the appearance of security and retention of some portion of the material aspects of your life that give you comfort, you have made what is often referred to as a “devil’s bargain.” While you appear to gain something in the short term, when the time comes to “pay the bill,” you then discover the true cost of what it is you have given up. If you look at that kind of non-resistance, you will find that it has fear at its base. So it is important to look at the motives that underlie a given action or decision. Are they based in fear or are they based in trust in the plan for one’s life?

However, since all things are playing out according to the plan for each life, it is impossible to say that even a devil’s bargain does not ultimately serve a higher purpose. We find it humorous to see the globalists achieving their goals so easily because we know the outcome of the whole drama. In the end, those who made that trade of freedom for material security and possessions will lose everything they bartered for, and even those who hold the reins of power now will be defeated. It strikes us as ironic that everything has a tendency to work out in opposite ways to how they appear in the beginning. Those who surrender their freedoms for material comfort will in the end lose both the freedoms AND the material comfort. Those who surrender their resistance to the divine plan for their life will ultimately “gain the kingdom,” because they will be making the choices needed to come into their true inheritance, their true nature as the co-creators of this reality. In being willing to risk everything material, in the end they gain the ability to have and create anything material that they might desire, but from a state of total sovereignty rather than servitude.

We hope these remarks are helpful in clarifying any possible confusion created by our choice of words in the above Message, and we hope that they are also an impetus for you to reflect deeply on the choices that are presenting to you in each and every moment of your life. We are suggesting that you give your alignment with the Creator the highest priority. In one of your scriptures, it counsels you to “Seek first the kingdom. Then all else will be added.” In bartering personal freedom for short-term material comfort, one ultimately loses everything that is precious in life and one has placed one’s heart in the wrong place. This is not a new idea, but we ask you to contemplate the deeper possibilities of these two aspects of surrender. Whom or what do you surrender to and why?

THE “GOD GAME”
April 9, 2002

For those who have eyes to see, it is evident that much change is going on all around you. Yet, if you follow our instructions, you can deepen your sense of peace and calm and remain serene, even as things accelerate and intensify. The threshold event of which we have spoken is still some time off in your future, and we would hope that with this long lead time to reflect and prepare, you will have integrated the necessary understanding to respond to it with quiet acceptance, knowing that it brings with it the final stages of your exit from planet Earth and the beginnings of the new world that follows.

Yet we also know how much you love to hear from us and how it helps you to hear our perspective on things, so in the spirit of an interlude, we thought we would entertain you a bit with our discourse today. Our model indeed comes from your world of entertainment, although we hope that you will take away something a bit deeper than just that. Sometimes entertainment can be an easy way to swallow what would otherwise be bitter medicine, and we hope that will be the case today.

If life is viewed as a sort of movie, with everyone playing their part and speaking their lines, then God/the Creator is the ultimate filmmaker. We have spoken before of the Oversoul and how it creates the simultaneous projections of itself--what you experience as your embodiments or “lives.” The Oversoul is the projector for those individual expressions of itself and God/the Creator is the scriptwriter for all of the movies that play out through the Oversouls, regardless of their polarity. As we have often said, the Creator has created EVERYTHING in order to experience Itself through Its creations. We have also commented on how it was necessary to create the two polarities in order to increase the potential for increasingly complex experiences, and how the Oversouls themselves come in two “flavors” or polarities, which we have identified as the STS (service to self) and STO (service to others) orientation.

In movies, there are opposing forces and conflict, and it is also true in the “movie” of life. Think about that for a moment. If you went to see a movie and everything was harmonious and smooth, you would find it rather flat and uninteresting after a very short while. There would be no challenges to  overcome, nothing but a kind of pleasant sameness and not much going on at any time--not much stimulation--and your mind would become restless and begin contemplating other things. That’s because you want your movies to be entertainment, and for that reason they need opposing forces, conflict and challenges to be overcome. And so it is with 3D life. If there were not enough stimulus, people would lapse into a sort of lethargy and boredom and lose interest or have to manufacture situations where they could experience intensity and variety. Such is the nature of the one who seeks to ever know more. And the Creator’s chief desire is always to know more of Itself through the interaction of Its creations. We will call this aspect of the Creator’s creative play “The God Game.”

In the God Game, the Creator “wears” all of Its creations and plays all of the “parts” roles/characters) through all of Its created parts. At the higher densities, the game changes, the rules change, but it is still the God Game at its core. Now, what does this have to do with anything and how can this be of help in understanding what you experience from day to day and over time? Well, in the God Game, every one of you who is reading this is a character in the movie. Characters have personality traits they are born with, and they have traits that are learned through their experiences. In 3D, the catalyst is pain. In 4D, the catalyst is love. You are in 3D and your character has been shaped by your pain and by your seeking. Most of your defining moments--those moments in which an experience affected you so deeply that it changed the course of your life--involved your pain and/or your seeking. Your seeking comes from the Creator’s desire to know Itself through Its creations. Your pain comes from the Creator’s desire to know Itself through Its creations. The Creator desires to know more about Itself, so the catalyst for all experiences are both the seeking and the pain.

Now, how are those conditions to be met? What will provide the pain and what will support the seeking? You can view the sources of pain as “enemies” or “perpetrators” or STS “villains” if you want. Those labels are used to identify sources of pain in your life. But they are as needed for the fullness of your experience in 3D as are the sources of support for your seeking--those whom you would call “friends” or “loved ones” or “teachers.” Both are needed for the fullness of your experience and for the entire script or drama to play out. Both of those are the Creator expressing through Its creations, through the God Game. Here is a little insight into how it goes:

The pure Light of Creation, conditioned by Love as an ordering force, streams endlessly from the Source/Creator through the lenses of the Oversouls. The Oversouls color the Light with their own particular biases or “angle of perception/reception” and the Light takes on a particular quality from having passed through the Oversoul. You could view these qualities as archetypes, as biases, or as themes to be explored. We like to view them as essences. In their purest state, they are the essence of a particular aspect of the Creator, and there are many of them available. We may explore this concept further at a future time, but for now, just understand that each Oversoul exists to explore a particular essence or theme, and it will do so by creating “lives” in many different settings or environments. However, all of the OTHER Oversouls are doing the same thing, so in any given environment, one has the presence and potential for interaction with many different essences, and this provides a rich basis for many different kinds of experiences. For all practical purposes, the original set of possibilities was infinite, but now many (if not most) of those possibilities have been explored and there is a distillation going on, back into the original essence.

In the world around you, every person you see is going through a process of this distillation back into the original essence. They are becoming MORE of who they really are. This can cause some problems when a person was really just accommodating the expectations of those around them or living their life as a reaction to their defining moments. There is a lot of rejection of past hurts going on and a lot of intensified seeking. What a glorious time to be in a body! At no time in the history of planet Earth has there been such a rich potential for intensified experience. How much more interesting the movie is from the Creator’s perspective! In the God Game, the more intense the experience, the better it is for the richness that it provides.

Let’s now look at some examples. If the focus of the exploration is the theme of power, then there is the potential to explore both the absence of power (powerlessness) and the possession of power. In the absence of power, one also learns about the possession of power from those who have power over them, and the reverse is true for the person who possesses the power--they learn from those whom they have the power over. There is a RECIPROCITY that is inherent in the God Game. God supplies all of the needed players and is both teaching and learning at the same time. Each player is a teacher for the other and is also learning from the other. Each person is a mirror for the other one to see him/herself more clearly, to know him/herself more deeply. After many lifetimes have been created and experienced, all of this teaching and learning becomes integrated into the collective experience of the Oversoul, and thence back to the Creator. It all comes from the INTERACTION of the particular Oversoul’s projections with the projections of the OTHER Oversouls. This is how the Creator can experience Itself through Its Creations. The experience of one particular Oversoul is amplified, enriched, and colored by the interaction with the projections from the other Oversouls. And it is a totally dynamic process, with feedback and alteration at each node of interaction. In fact, this is not just true of people, but of the entire fabric of the created or manifest worlds.

Your scientists have discovered a fundamental building block of matter, which they have called a quark. A quark is made out of Light. Not light as illumination, but Light that is a substance. ALL matter is built up of these units of Light. Now, these quarks are made out of Light, but they are shaped or conditioned by vibration, or Sound. Together, Sound and Light form the material ground for the manifest worlds. But there is one more aspect to consider. When a quark interacts with another quark, they are BOTH CHANGED by the interaction. So even at the most fundamental level of material expression, a dynamic process of constant interaction and change is going on. What’s more, there is an underlying field of consciousness or awareness that is the matrix for the entire collection of all of the quarks that are carrying on these interactions. So, at the most fundamental level, all quarks are interconnected with all other quarks by being contained in this field of conscious awareness. This field is the Mind of God. All manifest reality is embedded in the Mind of God and is interconnected through the matrix of the Mind of God. When you say “All things are connected,” this is a fundamental truth.

The Oversouls are vast fields of intelligent energy. They are self-aware, and yet, they too, are embedded in the same matrix. When they project their projections, they manifest them through the quarks that are the building blocks of matter. All things, all manifestations, both from the level of the projector--the Oversoul--and the particles that make up the manifestation of the Oversoul’s projection are embedded in the Mind of God. Therefore, in the God Game, God is experiencing Itself as both the filmmaker and the actors in the movie that It makes. These actors are not just people. They are also things like the wind and rain, flowers and trees, insects and animals. They are all the creations of the Creator. They are all players in the God Game. They are all sources of catalyst for pain and for the support of one’s seeking.

Take a rock, for example. If you stub your toe on a rock or step on a sharp stone with your bare foot, it can provide you with the experience of pain. But another rock could offer you a foothold when you are climbing up a steep trail or wanting to cross a stream. They’re all rocks, and they are all part of the God Game. If your life script requires you to cross a stream at some point in your seeking, the rock is an element of your experience. The rock is also sentient and it experiences you stepping on it. It experiences your energy, your thoughts, and it experiences the feeling of weight or pressure from being stepped on. The rock is experiencing, too. Now, take a look at some of the things that are going on in your world today. A major portion of the Ross Ice Shelf collapsed in the Antarctic recently, a part of the changes that are going on. This change was a result of other changes that had already occurred. When those huge blocks of ice are set free to float and eventually melt, they affect the oceans that they float in. The fresh water from the melting ice changes the salinity of the water around them. That change in the salinity produces a subtle change in the flow of the ocean’s currents. That change in the flow of the ocean’s currents produces a subtle change in the weather patterns. Those changes in the weather patterns affect crops and food production. That change in food production affects the availability of food and also of prices for those foods. Those changes in availability and pricing produce other subtle changes, such as a subtle alteration of people’s priorities. When people are starving, they become desperate to survive at all costs, and that leads them to act in ways that they would not otherwise act. Those actions in turn affect other things which set in motion still other things, and so the God Game goes. Every single part of the manifest worlds affects every other part of the manifest worlds. It is all connected through the Mind of God, and God is everywhere that anything exists. It is all part of the God Game, wherein God interacts with Itself through Its creations.

With the return to essence, with things (and especially people) becoming more of what they really are underneath their conditioning and environmental pressures, you see many things surfacing. Polarization increases as the heroes and the villains become more like their true essence. Positive becomes more positive. Negative becomes more negative. Things that one took on from others and which are not part of their essence become cast off, sometimes in unpleasant ways. Body aches and pains, emotional aches and pains, spiritual aches and pains--all of these are part of the purification of essence that is going on. Tolerance is lower for those things that are not compatible with one’s essence. There is a greater tendency to withdraw from what is not compatible with one’s essence, and that is seen as the great sorting out into all of the groupings, which we have spoken about before. There are things surfacing that come as surprises at times, to find that one is not the person one thought they were. Much of what has shaped your self-perception is the result of those early experiences in life--those defining experiences that set you off on a particular course, exploring particular options, attempting to heal your pain, attempting to define your seeking and find what it is you seek. So if you find your life changing now, in fundamental ways, it is because the God Game is nearly over for this chapter in the Creation story. God has explored the themes, the roles, the potentials that were available through the parameters of this particular environment, and as in every good movie, it is time for the final act, where the question gets answered, the conflicts are resolved, and everyone goes off to live in the sequel! Your sequel is life on the ships and then life on Terra--a trilogy, if you like, and one that will still be just an interlude on the way to other movies. You are coming home. You are becoming more of your essence. You are beginning to know who the “others” are whom you want to be with. And none of this would be possible without the God Game. None of this would be possible without the protagonists and the antagonists, without the heroes and the villains. Every script requires both for the story to move forward. Conflict leads to resolution and in that resolution, everyone is changed by the interaction. Change is eternal. You are eternal, and you will eternally change.

ON YOUR WAY HOME
February 22, 2002

All right, now. We have asked to speak to you tonight because something very wonderful is looming on your horizon. It is not what you would expect, but it is still wonderful from our perspective. A grand awakening is about to take place and for you who have been patiently waiting for release from the world of so much sorrow, this will mark the true beginning of the final stage of your departure from this world, on the way to the next.

We have spoken before of this event. It is a global wakeup call, so that everyone, everywhere in the world can know something has fundamentally and irrevocably changed. For some change is and can be terrifying, but change can also be seen as good news, too. We encourage you to embrace change in this way--as good news to be celebrated, as the "beginning of the end" of this sorrow. If you can see it this way, then you can quietly rejoice in your heart with the sure knowing of what follows. Despite appearances, it is truly good news--an end to the suffering of this world, an end to the pain of this world, once and for all, forever. This is what is in store for you--total joy, total love, total peace.

But on the way to that joy and peace there is a period of upheaval as part of this massive change. It is for this reason that we have spent so much time and energy in preparing you for this time and these occurrences. If you can but keep your eyes on the far horizon, where that new world awaits you in all of her radiance and joy, then you will pass through this time with less attention on what is passing away and more attention on where you are headed through the times ahead.

We wish you to know, also, that we are always with you. If we do not speak to you through these words, we speak to you through our silence. Silence is a Message, too. It says, "Listen within." It says, "Pay attention to what feelings come up when the Hosts have not spoken for awhile." Do you get anxious to hear from us? Then seek our comfort within. If our beloved messenger were suddenly plucked from your midst, what would you do? Find us and our comfort within. When you stop grasping at the fragile comforts that make up your external world, you can experience the richness and the comforts of your inner world. If you focus on what you DON'T have, you will never realize how much you DO have. That is one of the reasons we have encouraged you to live your life with appreciation. By doing that, you fill yourself every minute of every day and you are truly wealthy in the things that matter most.

Now that we have put our gloss on the story, let us acknowledge that not everyone will see things the way you do. You must understand this and not get caught up in the maelstrom that is soon to surround you. There will be a great deal of confusion, anger, and fear, and these things will be exploited by those who those who profit from them. Do not get caught up in the drama. Remember our counsel to seek the peace of deep ocean? Remember it when these times are upon you. Let the events flow around you, but maintain a place of calm trust and serenity within you. These events will be the harbinger of even more intense times, but carry your peace with you like a shield and you will weather the storms well.

Please note that we are now speaking in the plural. There is not one single event, but a entire panorama of events of all kinds and types that will constitute the face of change in your world. They will be everywhere you look, and once it dawns on people that there is some possible connection from one to another, they will be roused from their sleep in a most unpleasant way. You are not sleeping. You are already awakening and you have within you the means to create peace and safety for yourself and your loved ones, be they human or otherwise. Peace is an attitude, not something you can buy at a store already packaged. To be sure, you can read books and listen to soothing music, but even those actions are an expression of an ATTITUDE of SEEKING PEACE. Seek peace. Be peace. Be humble in your seeking and let go of the clinging to the comforts you used to seek. Open to receive the comforts that count, the ones that have no price because they are priceless. Peace, peace, peace. It is your sanctuary through the storm. Peace, peace, peace. It is the savior of your soul, your sanity, your hearts and minds. Seek peace in the midst of the storm.

If choices come (and they will), make the choice for peace. As the frequencies rise, everything that is a symptom of the malaise of this world will surface. Peace heals. Be at peace. Drop the struggle to hold on. In letting go, you gain more than you lose. Some of you will find it harder to do this than others, but we assure you that you have created yourself with the necessary reserves, the necessary heart, the necessary strength to do this, and in so doing, you will rejoice even more because of the discovery that you are thriving in the midst of the storms. You will thrive because you are made for these times.

You have found your homing beacon in these Messages and you carry within you the map and the compass for the journey. Even if we were silent, you would find your way home. Be peace. Be at peace. You are on your way now, and nothing will stop you from making the trip home. You are coming home to yourself, to the world of your dreams, and to each other. In light of all that, what does it matter if the old shell cracks and shatters? When it's time for the chick to come out of the egg, the shell has to crack and shatter. You are coming out of your shell. The world will crack and shatter around you and you will be coming home. Focus on the journey ahead, rather than what you leave behind. Let everyone make their own decisions now, as the grouping around the poles of destiny is taking place more and more each day. There are many partings to take place on the road ahead and many who are still in your life may pass from your view, but you are coming home. Your animals, your loved ones, everyone whom you love will be provided for, in keeping with their life plan. You can trust the process. You can trust the journey. You are coming home.

If we are silent sometimes, it is so that you can learn to listen to your own sound, to your own inner voice instead of ours. We are family, you and we, and we are here with you every step of the way. But we do not wish you to become dependent on hearing our voice to know you are safe and loved. We wish you to hear your own inner voice to know you are safe and loved. Go within. Meditate. Breathe. Feel the calm and peace you can create when you can remember to breathe. As things get more intense around you, find ways to feel calmer and more relaxed. Take a hot bath. Go for a walk. Listen to sounds that soothe you--streams, rivers, the sighing of the wind in the trees, a gentle rain. You can even get recordings of these sounds if you want, so you can create this experience for yourself whenever you need to remind yourself that what is going on around you is not all there is to the picture. Be good to yourself. Cherish yourself for the beautiful being that you are. The long lonely walk is far shorter now than it was and you are on your way home. Remember that. You are on your way home.

IT'S BOOSTER ROCKET TIME!
January 2, 2002

All right, now. We have several things to say to you today, on both the near and more distant view. The closest thing to you on the time horizon is a somewhat massive event that will mark the separating out of the different realities from one another to such an extent that they will begin to experience events that are not shared with all of the other realities that will emerge. This event will be felt in every corner of the world as a very deep shock, and one that will rouse even the most deeply slumbering individuals to a dawning realization that the world will not ever be the same again.

The events that have preceded this forthcoming shock were relatively mild compared to what comes now and what will follow it in relatively rapid succession. You are nearly at the threshold of the parting of the ways and this will become more obvious to you in hindsight, after sufficient time has passed that you can look back and see a pattern. To put this in a proper context, we wish to make use of a scientifically observed process as a metaphor for what is about to occur. As with all metaphors, there is an oversimplification of a complex situation, but it will serve to illustrate our point well enough for you to make it the rest of the way on your own.

When a living cell is going to divide, a number of things occur. In the resting stage, the chromatin--those threads of DNA that carry the genetic information of the cell and the organism--are loosely spread throughout the nucleus of the cell, making it difficult to determine just where one thread leaves off and another begins. However, when the time nears for the cell to divide itself into two separate halves, the chromatin begin bunching up and separating out from the other threads so that they form distinct chromosomes that can be observed as such under the microscope. Then they replicate and the two identical pairs line up along the equatorial plate in the cell, which will become the plane of division when the process completes. Meanwhile, the "poles" of the cell have migrated so that they are opposite each other and at right angles to the equatorial plate, not very different from the relationship between the poles and the equator on your physical planet. Fine threads from the center of each chromosome attach to these poles (one from each pair goes to one of the poles; the other one of the pair attaches to the other pole) and when all is lined up, the cell pinches inward at the equator and divides.

In this process, things go along fairly slowly at first, but when all is finally lined up, the process completes rather quickly. So it is with you right now, in your planetary process. It has been a relatively slow process of sorting out into your groups and aligning with your poles of destiny, but this next event will be the "shot heard 'round the world," and it will mark the "beginning of the end"--that point at which the different realities physically move away from each other toward their "poles of destiny." In other words, despite that fact that you can look back on your previous year as a time of increasing acceleration--particularly from September onward--once this event occurs, things will kick into high gear and much will follow in rapid succession, just as the cell rapidly separates into its new "daughter cells" and they then move apart from each other and journey separately from that point on.

A cell only splits into two cells, and there will be several different realities that split off from each other in this process, but the key point to grasp here is the significance of this next event in terms of marking the beginning of this actual movement into separate realities, and to prepare yourself for the speed at which things will unfold after that. Despite the shock of September and some of the things that happened afterward, the last few weeks have been pretty tame compared to what is coming next and afterward. We encourage you to keep your breath open, to remain detached while observing all of this occurring, and to realize that for those who are headed toward Terra, this could be considered the "booster rocket" for your journey in that direction. There is no one who will not FEEL this impact, but there are many ways of perceiving it. If you were strapped into the seat of a space shuttle and the rockets kicked in under you, you would feel that impact and acceleration, but you would know that it was taking you upward toward your destination and mission. You may choose the same response to this next shock on your perceptual screen, and it would be good if you can do that. Instead of viewing it as a disaster, many of you will be able to say, "Finally! We are under way."

Many of you who are reading this have been "on your way" for a long time, and have experienced many shifts in your understanding and perceptions. Now, however, the time of learning and processing will change from dealing with those things of the past toward dealing with those things that are now coming into your life. Many of you are still in the process of leaving old relationships and circumstances. That may continue for awhile for some of you, but most of you will find the rate of change in your life to be exhilarating and experience more and more joy in the journey as you begin to experience the rush of freedom, as you let go of those things and people who hold you back. You remember an old title--Inherit the Wind? You will inherit the wind. You will become accustomed to streaming like the wind, to be moving so fast it brings tears to your eyes, but they will be tears of joy that you are finally underway and can feel the movement as you stream toward your destination.

Others will be experiencing rapid change, also, but it will not bring them joy--in part because they will be losing a lot of what they are very attached to: pictures of reality that must change in the face of the events that will come now, ways of being that will no longer be possible. Many things taken for granted will pass away, and those who can move through these times with grace and surrender will experience wonder and awe at the unfolding. People will look at the ashes of their past and some will understand that it clears the way for a new beginning, while others will sort through the ashes, trying to recover something remembered to take with them--to take with them what no longer has life in an effort to hold onto that life which is gone.

It is easy to point fingers of blame, but as we have said before, when you get down to the core, you must blame the Creator who has created all that you see and feel. It is all "good" to the Creator because it fulfills the purpose of the Creation--to provide experiences for the Creator to enjoy through Its creations. This shock that comes is all part of the larger exit plan for the Creation. Nothing will be left of the old world when it is done. Everyone will be gone from the present planet, through one exit path or another. Everyone will experience continuity in their perceived reality, but this event will mark the time when not everyone experiences the SAME reality. If you could compare notes, you would discover that different people experience different things, and this will increase as you move through time to the finale of the drama of 3D Earth.

As things move forward, you will see your destination more and more clearly by virtue of its contrast with everything else that is going on. Likewise, other people with other destinations will perceive THOSE more clearly, so it will seem like everyone else that does not share one's particular views is mistaken, but this movement will accommodate them all, in one way or another.

So, for example, if you hear that a large planet or comet is coming that will result in a pole shift or cataclysms in 2003, that is a perception that belongs to a particular exit path, and you simply allow those people who perceive that to do so. That path is not "yours," and it does not lead to Terra, so all you need to be concerned with is the path that IS "yours" and to follow what presents in your life that will lead you further in that direction. There has been much talk in the past of many scenarios that have not manifested--mass landings, the Photon Belt, etc. However, now the many paths that are being "seen" by those who can "see" in that way have a greater likelihood of coming to pass. Even the scenarios that are put forth by the deceivers will come to pass for some people in some way, because thought creates and if enough people believe in a particular outcome, their combined thoughts will manifest that reality. That is why we are sharing these Messages with you--so that those who are coded to respond and can feel that response will add their energies with others of like mind and heart and will manifest that which we speak of to you.

It is a paradox that Terra already exists and yet you have to align with it for it to manifest for you. It is a reciprocal relationship, like a mirror of sorts. Terra calls to you, and you seek Terra. In the aligning with the vision, it is a little like a "lock" in a missile guidance system. In reading these Messages, you "lock" onto the "target" of Terra, and Terra attracts you by her presence in your perceptual field. Not everyone is this way, and though it might seem like you are alone in your perceptions when  compared with those around you, consider that there are nearly 6 million of you altogether and you will have a LOT of company once you are all together again. You have been together before, in groupings of various sizes and at various historical times and places, but now the time is coming when you will all be together at once, in one place again, before you are complete and depart for your other journeys on the way back to Source and your final dissolution as a separate being.

Those of you who are going to Terra will be there long enough to establish the colonies and bear your children, and then you will be off to other adventures in the cosmos. For the next century plus [some years], your focus will be Terra, but then you will be through with that and will move on. That is the nature of things. One exploration leads to the next, and that next one leads to the next one after that, infinitely. Terra calls you now, and she is your safe harbor from the storm that now comes. Remember that. The storms that come now are the booster rockets lifting you toward your dream of a world without storms, without wars, without death, and if you miss the thunder and lightning, you will be able to travel to wilder places to visit with that, too, but Terra and her peace will be your home for the rest of your present incarnation. When it is time to leave, you will simply change form and move on. No pain. No death. No sorrow again, ever. Now THAT will be a welcome thing, won't it? We look forward to having you amongst us again.

ASCENSION IS A PROCESS, PART THREE
November 26, 2001

All right, now. We have asked to speak to you today in this, our final discourse on this particular topic, so that we may both come to closure on THIS topic and lay the foundation for that which  Follows. You see, that is the way things work in the Creation. Every ending is also a beginning. Every closure is also an opening, and so it is with our work with you and so it is with your ascension process, as well.

As you are leaving the world you have known, you are also approaching a new world, the world of your dreams. As you are closing off those ties to those whom you have known, you are also opening up to make new associations, with those who are more closely aligned with your particular path and destination. It is a grand sorting out that is taking place and there are both sorrows and joys to be found along the way. We hope to bring you more of the latter than the former, so please bear with us as we enter this new territory together.

First of all, please take note of the fact that there are three parts to this discourse. There will be three volumes in this material before we are through, and that is no accident. Every number is a symbol for a particular energy configuration and certain numbers are called prime numbers and have special significance, as they form the foundation for other numbers. They also reflect and embody a certain aspect of the design of Creation, and they are used in describing that design. There are also certain geometries involved that are a reflection of "how things work" in a particular Creation -- the outpicturing of certain dynamics there are inherent in that Creation and in keeping with its Universal Laws.

We will not attempt to give you a comprehensive treatise on these subjects, for our topic today is the subject of ascension, so we will only make mention of those aspects of these things that relate to our topic --your ascension process. Many of you have read and use some terms interchangeably, such as dimension and density, which from our perspective is not an accurate thing and leads to some confusion. We hope to clarify those things also, as it all relates to your understanding of who you really are, and how you project yourself into your many different forms.

To begin with, you are a projection from Source. The Original Thought became manifest as a projection of that Thought. All of you who are bound for Terra are part of that Original Thought. You are the first generation of Creation and are creators yourselves. But who and what is this Creator who does the thinking? And how are you related to It? You have words such as "ineffable" to express the nature of the Creator. You also use other words, such as omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent, etc. for the same purpose. Ineffable means "unknowable; incapable of being described; incapable of being grasped/understood." It is considered to be an attribute of the Creator. All those other words are attributes, also. They describe aspects or qualities of the Creator. So, to your limited frame of reference, the nature of the Creator is beyond your capacity to understand, beyond your ability to comprehend. And perhaps that is true for you NOW, but when you have crossed the threshold, you will EXPERIENCE the Creator directly. You will experience your true connection with and relationship to the Creator, and then you will truly be "home." Then you will have no more need of words to describe what cannot be described. You will simply EXIST in that relationship and knowing.

Now, who is this "you" we are talking about? You are a projection of that Creator, a product of that Creator's Thought, and you exist only in the Mind of the Creator. All of Creation exists only in the Mind of the Creator. It is Thought made manifest through the medium of light and sound. Sound is the word you use to describe vibration, which is the oscillation between two opposing states. Your entire reality is oscillating between two opposing states -- "on" and "off." You reality is only "there" half of the time, but the oscillations are so rapid that you perceive of things as being continuous, as being constantly "on." But in reality, the Creation is being re-created over and over  again -- "refreshed" or "redrawn" over and over again, many times a second. So "you" only exist half of the time, yourselves! Where are you during the other half of the time? You ARE the Creator at rest. Think about it. You ARE the Creator at rest. There is a spectrum of vibration involved, and the only difference is the speed at which the oscillations take place.

We have spoken of the "inbreath" and "outbreath" of the Creator, which is measured in billions of your years. That is one cycle of Creation. At the other end of the spectrum is this very rapid cycling, this very rapid alternation between "on" and "off" that makes up your physical reality -- or rather that which APPEARS to be your physical reality. It is all a projection, and the Creator is the "projector" of the entire Creation, including you. You are players in the Creator's "movie," only instead of a single, static "screen" in a movie house, the Creator gets to view its Creation through the perceptual screens of each and every aspect of Its Creation -- an infinitude of perceptions, all streaming back into the Creator from Its projections.

The Creator exists as an infinitely vast field of intelligent energy, and the first generation -- the Elohim -- are only slightly less so. They are extremely vast also, but are a single step removed from absolute infinitude. They do have boundary and identity. You are the expression or projection of one of the Elohim. You are among those who came together to project this portion of the Creation from within your being, so many billions of years ago. But your projection does not just consist of this level of being that you presently experience as your physical reality. It has many levels -- many different frequency bands -- that make up a continuous spectrum of reality, not unlike the spectrum of light and sound that makes up the Creation itself.

You exist simultaneously on all of the levels or frequency bands that exist. You exist as vast fields of intelligent energy and you exist as single points of pure consciousness and light without form -- simultaneously. You exist as embodiments or expressions across the entire frequency spectrum, also, and all of your expressions exist simultaneously with each other. Right now, your attention is placed within the focus of your physical expression on Earth, but as your ascension proceeds, you will be accessing more and more of your other levels of being, also. You will be defining yourself quite differently, and you will be changing in many ways, to more properly express your chosen level of being for a given time and place.

These Messages are being given in a series, in a sequence, proceeding from the outer or more superficial aspects toward the core or more central aspects of our discussion. It is all about the journey back to your true Selves, toward remembering who you really are and toward regaining your true powers and true nature of expression. It is hard for you to imagine how much and how little CHOICE there is available to you. You see, when you have so little comprehension of your true place in things, you are like a blind person, guessing at what lies around you. You have so MUCH choice because the possible choices are nearly infinite. You have so LITTLE choice, because there is only ONE right choice for you in a given moment. When you are fully conscious of your nature and connection with Source, you will be at peace and at rest within both of those seeming paradoxes: the fact that there are so many choices available and the fact that there is only ONE "right" choice for you to make -- one choice that is wholly in keeping with who you are and where you fit within the relationship between all of the other expressions of the Creator with which you interact.

So you exist on Earth, in your physical bodies, but you also exist at other levels at the same time. You exist in all the other frequency bands, as well, and each frequency band has its own "laws" that govern form and function within that band. Most of you who are reading these Messages are going to go to Terra and will express in forms and have functions that are appropriate to that frequency band -- that density of the Creation. AT THE SAME TIME, you will continue to exist at all of the other frequency bands, and you will be able to choose where you put your attention -- through which frequency band you perceive. You will be aware of your "other selves," but the one "right" focus will be your primary one, with all of the others existing as a backdrop of potentials that is always available to you. Some of you will relate to Terra from other platforms, to oversee and guide those upon her surface, as those are the roles that you have chosen for that experience, also. At all times, all of you will be existing at all of your levels at once, but one focus will be primary. You will be a focus of attention in one particular part of the vast ocean of Cosmic Mind, aware of the rest as a constant backdrop for your experience.

We have spoken of the holographic model. All things are contained as potentials within the hologram. This is what we mean by this backdrop. It is made up of all the potentials. In full consciousness, you will experience the presence of all the potentials at the same time as you experience the focus of the EXPRESSION of ONE of those potentials. We will speak more on this topic at another time, but we just want to give you a little look at this idea, now. You will be aware of ALL of it while expressing just one choice within it at any given time.

Now to the subject of numbers. There are essences that are expressed by numbers, and prime numbers can be said to be prime essences, like what you might think of when you think of primary colors. Your primary colors of visible light are red, green, and blue. All other colors are made up of those 3 colors, in combination with intensity or lack of it. When you blend these 3 colors in varying proportions and intensity, you get all of the other colors, including the extremes of pure white (the complete presence of all 3 colors in equal proportions and at full intensity) and pure black (the ABSENCE of all color and the point of zero intensity). Numbers act in similar ways, but with far more complexity. Numbers are symbolic distillations of the essence of certain properties, and primary numbers cannot be further reduced. They are foundational. All numbers that are NOT primary numbers are made up of combinations of various primary numbers, and can be "taken apart" into their primary components.

What does all of this talk about numbers and colors have to do with your ascension process? It is to give you a grasp of ESSENCE, of FOUNDATION, of ROOT or GROUND. You are returning to your essence, to that primary expression of your being, independent of your expression in a particular environment. Your essence is your primary color, your primary sound, your primary quality. It is the thing that is the "true you," independent of any incarnational expression. It is the pure vibrational pattern that is your particular configuration and there are only so many of those available within a given spectrum of Creation. All the rest are made up of combinations and alterations of that primary configuration. To be in full consciousness means to KNOW your essence. And not only will you know your own essence, you will also recognize the essence of others.

There have been some individuals in human history on your planet who embodied this kind of understanding and modeled it for others. Now all of you who are going to Terra will be embodying your essence. You are dropping all that is NOT in keeping with your essence, and you are filling yourselves with more and more of your essential nature as this process proceeds. The questions of intellect fall away in the fullness of your experience of your essence. You are filled with the peace of knowing who you are, where your place is in the Creation, and of knowing what is your one "right" choice in any given moment. All struggle is gone. All doubt is gone. All there is left is the peace and the quiet joy of knowing at last the answers to those questions that have formed the basis of your seeking through all these billions of years. You will simply KNOW, and you will never again have to forget what you know, ever again.

We will speak more about these numbers, colors, and higher aspects of the Creation at other times. For now, we wish you to simply know where this is heading. When your transformation is complete, you will simply KNOW who you are, where you fit within all of this, how you relate to the Creator Itself, and what is "right action" or "right choice" in any given moment. You can begin to practice that now, though, by simply remaining quiet enough to hear the "voice within." In the midst of the tumult and the noise around you, you can listen instead to the silence and the voice within. In each and every moment, you can choose peace instead of struggle and conflict. You can walk away from those people and those experiences that scream for you to ease their pain by engulfing you in it. You can bring peace to others only if you can embody it yourself. You can bring peace only if you ARE at peace within yourself. As long as you are striving within yourself, toward some imagined outcome, you are not at peace. Peace, peace, peace. That is the "pearl of great price." Be peace. Be at peace. Be peace.

COMMENTARY FROM LYARA:
I have received a couple of e-mails about the reference to the primary colors, so I wanted to clear up the confusion. The primary colors of LIGHT are red, green, and blue. The primary colors of PIGMENTS, such as ink and paint, and the pigments in skin, hair, and eyes are red, yellow, and blue. LIGHT works differently than PIGMENTS do.

When you combine LIGHT colors, they are ADDITIVE and RADIANT. The more intensity and the more colors, the lighter and brighter they get. When you combine PIGMENT colors, they are SUBTRACTIVE. Each pigment ABSORBS all color except its own, which it reflects back to you. When you combine all three primary colors of LIGHT, you get WHITE. The total absence of light is perceived as black. When you combine all three primary colors of PIGMENTS, you get BROWN. The "black" you see in black cats is really a very dark brown, which absorbs nearly all the light that hits it. The Message is talking about the primary colors of LIGHT, not pigments. White light contains all colors, and when it is passed through a prism, you see all the colors of visible light, from red through violet. Our chakras are based on the LIGHT colors, not the PIGMENT colors. The middle chakra of the 7 body chakras is the heart chakra and its color is GREEN. The lower 3 chakras are red, orange and yellow (note that yellow is not in the middle), and the upper 3 chakras are blue, indigo, and violet -- all together they make up the colors of the rainbow, the visible light spectrum.

When the Messages referred to the coming "wars" (plural), it now seems they were right. Now that Afghanistan is winding down, Israel and the Middle East are heating up. Somehow (with all due deference to those who live where it's all going on), it all seems remote and far away to me. When I look at the timeline, I see more and more of a white cloud that obscures all of that turmoil and strife, and when I look at next spring, it almost seems magical, beautiful, and so unlike anything I have ever seen or felt before. I confess that I really do not know the mechanism for getting from one world to another, from one frequency band to another, or how indeed it will look as the different timelines continue to separate. What I DO know is how different things FEEL as all of this proceeds. I don't LOOK any different, but I FEEL very different -- more peaceful, more trusting, more provided for and serene. It is definitely possible to reside in that place of peace, to BE peace, in the midst of the strife, and I do think we create an effect that is very beneficial when we can reside in that place of peace. I think that's what I liked most about this Message: "Be peace. Be at peace. Be peace." It feels so good to be able to just let go and be peace.

ASCENSION IS A PROCESS, PART TWO
November 9, 2001

All right, now. We have said we would continue our conversation about the ascension process, and it is time for us to do that now.

First of all, we wish to reiterate that the lifting we have spoken of is a process that will culminate in an "event" -- the crossing of a threshold into the next frequency band. This lifting has two components to it: a physical component, related to the spin frequency of the subatomic particles in your physical body, and a spiritual component, related to a shift in your consciousness and ways of perceiving your reality. Both are taking place at the same time and interrelate, as consciousness affects all physical materiality.

There is no way to separate consciousness from the physical manifestation of matter. Consciousness is the ground, or matrix, out of which physical matter emerges. We have spoken of the Mind of the Creator as the matrix for all of the Creation, and your individualized consciousness is a portion of that Infinite Mind, as long as you are still veiled and in the experience of separation. Once your veils have fallen and the barrier is removed, you will be in full and continuous communion with the Mind of the Creator and when you have learned to operate from that platform, you will be able to affect, alter, and create material reality from that place of infinite blessing. All of the powers of the Creator will be vested in your individual locus of attention, and you will consciously be aware of yourselves as the creator-gods you have always been.

Those of you who are bound for Terra are the first generation -- the product of the first Thought -- of the Creator. You are the Elohim, and though you do not remember this fully now, you will once your shift is complete. Over the next 18 months, you will find yourself much changed. The dropping away of your old life will continue, at an accelerated pace. Your fascination with the things of 3D will wane even more than before, and you will gradually detach from identifying with the 3D reality as your reality. You will begin to access more and more of your 4D identity and personality, and you will begin to access more and more of the 4D way of doing things. You must trust this process and trust your "knowing" that you are safe, sane, and that all is proceeding according to plan.

Some of you are being asked by the circumstances of your life to move on -- either to other places of residence or to other people, leaving behind those aspects of your old life. This is part of the sorting out into the different destinations, and we would counsel you to be at peace in the midst of this change. If fear arises, open the breath. Close your eyes for a moment and focus on deepening and opening your breath. Relax into the breath and feel your body relax into the truth of the moment. You are safe. Your world is changing, but you are safe. The world around you may be tumbling down, but you are safe. Remind yourself of this whenever things seem to be moving beyond your ability to control them. You don't need to control anything anymore. We are carrying you on a swift river of change, and we are with you at all times. You are surrounded by more help and protection than you could ever know. If you need to feel our presence, quiet yourself and go within. When you have become quiet and calm, you can invite us to reveal ourselves to you and you will be able to feel us in your own unique way. We are with you, but if you cannot quiet yourself, you will not be able to feel our presence and take comfort in that. As within, so without. When you are peaceful inside, you will draw peaceful energies to you from the outside.

Peace, peace, peace. It is so important to find and create inner peace. As the world around you moves steadily into more strife and war, create peace within and detach from the drama. Be like the Buddha. Be like the Christ. Be like all of those world teachers who have come to show the way -- who knew the eternal truths of existence. You will be like them when this process is complete. You will be like them when it is time for you to return for those who are going to need your help and comfort, who will need you to lead them to safety before the Pole Shift occurs.

This is a process, but there is also an "event" aspect to it. When it is the perfect time, the missing ingredient will be supplied and a door will open into another plane of reality. This is not something you can do for yourself at this time. It will be offered to you at the perfect time and in the perfect way for your particular circumstances. All of those who are meant to go with you will go with you at that time. They will be with you and you will cross through the door together -- your children, your animals, your friends and family members who have chosen for Terra will go with you. You may have children, friends, and family members who have NOT chosen to go to Terra and they will not go with you. All will happen in the perfect way for your particular circumstances. This is being done in love and we ask you to remember that love is the opposite of fear. If you are in fear about this, you will not be able to receive it. Let go and let God. It is still the answer to all questions. Let go and let God handle the details. We know what we are doing, and it will all be done perfectly for each individual situation.

Your task in all of this is to prepare yourselves to receive the changes with as much grace and ease as you can. Surrender is the way through. Resistance will only increase your discomfort. Let go and let God. If you look at those around you, love them enough to trust that they will have exactly the right experience for their life plan. If their Oversoul has chosen for them to go to Terra, they will, regardless of what they know or don't know, regardless of what they believe or don't believe. These Messages are beginning to affect enough people that a change in the field of the mass consciousness is beginning to be noticed by those who are receptive to it. You are resonating it into being. In the midst of all that is going on in the world, you are affecting things through your combined energies. Your longing for Terra is creating an energetic pathway toward it that will open it up for more and more people as things proceed. This is your work in this world at this moment -- to create that energetic pathway toward Terra. You are like the icebreaker ships that clear a passage for others to follow. It may not seem like you are doing anything, but if you will pay attention to your own transformation -- how you yourselves are changing -- you will recognize that you are radiating out a different "signal" than those around you who are still blindly following the ways of 3D.

You are all embodying the higher light. You are experiencing some discomforts as those attachments and those conditions that are not in keeping with your essence are purged from your cellular memory and from your life circumstances. This is a good time to simplify your lives. By that, we do not mean you have to become ascetics. We are merely suggesting that "less is more." If you still have clutter in your life, get rid of the clutter. If you have possessions that no longer reflect your present tastes or interests, get rid of them. Open up space in your  homes, your lives. Say goodbye to those things that no longer serve you, with thanks for what they have been for you and to you. They have served, but when they no longer serve you, get rid of them. The less you have left of the things that remind you of what you were, the easier it will be to receive what you are becoming. You can still keep photographs if they still have energy for you. You can still keep books if they still have energy for you. But those things that don't have energy for you anymore -- get rid of them. Be discerning, and by doing these things, you will make yourself more aware of how you have changed.

You will continue to change, and your tastes and interests will continue to change. One day you may be drawn to something and soon afterward you will be through with it. No blame. Just accept the process and move smoothly through it, touching on those things that present in your life to be touched upon. If there is one quality that will characterize this process, it is impermanence. Nothing will remain the same. You are changing daily, so it makes sense that your relationship to your world will also be changing daily. As things proceed, you will become skilled at surfing the wave of change. You will become more accustomed to maintaining your balance and staying over your feet as the wave of change carries you toward your destination -- Terra. In surfing, the key to a successful ride on the wave is staying right over your feet. If you lean back too far or forward too far, you will tumble into the wave. If you remain anywhere but over your feet, you lose your balance and the ride is over for the moment, requiring you to get back up and regain your balance again.

We have spoken a little about how it is on Terra -- how one creates anew in the moment, without reference to the past or the future. In this metaphor of surfing the wave and staying over your feet, we are talking about staying rooted where you ARE -- in the present moment -- rather than in the "past" (where you have been) or the "future" (where you are going). If you think about it, all fear derives from past experience being projected onto the future. When things arise in your present moment that remind you of something from the past, you can easily project that the past experience will repeat itself in the moments that follow the time of remembering that past. This is when you feel fear. It's inner talk that says, "It was like this before, so it will be like this again." If you experienced pain in the past, you expect it will be painful again. That is where the fear comes in. You want to avoid the pain. "I'm afraid that if this moment goes the way it went before, I'll experience what I experienced before, and I don't want to do that again."

The answer to this is to cut through the cords of memory, to interrupt the inner talk by saying out loud, "That was then. This is now." Boom! You are back in the present, able to choose anew in the present moment. When you say the word "now," you bring your attention into the present. Say "NOW" out loud, right now. Feel NOW. What is really happening NOW? Not what happened before, not what MIGHT happen later. What is really happening NOW? Do you see how you are in the habit of scaring yourself? Cultivate the practice of living NOW. Live each moment as the only moment that exists. That is how it will be on Terra. Get used to it. Create a little bit of Terra right where you are, NOW. NOW is the only place you can create anything. NOW is the only place you can choose anything. NOW is all you ever really have.

When we say the word  "moment," it will be useful to define what we mean. A moment is an "event" that arises from the matrix of Infinite Mind. It contains everything within it for its natural fulfillment and completion. It is not measured by minutes, seconds, or hours. It is a unit of experience that may be very short or go on for some time. You can FEEL when a moment begins. You can FEEL when it completes. Every moment has a beginning, a middle, and a conclusion, like a phrase in speech or music. Think of it entering into your field of awareness, swelling into its fullness, and then receding as it completes. There is a wavelike quality to a moment. A wave emerges from the ocean, swells, moves forward, and then resolves back into the ocean. Just so with a moment. It emerges from the ocean of consciousness that is the Mind of the Creator. It swells upward into your perceptual field, and moves forward, then ebbs from your experience as it completes. There is background and foreground, and there are different waves overlapping. In the past, you were only peripherally aware of the background, as your attention was captured by the foreground, but now your senses will be broadened and deepened until you are like a bowl containing ALL of it -- all of the ocean and all of the waves upon its surface. You will be aware of all of it simultaneously and be able to move your attention to whatever you feel called to pay attention to, at will.

This is a natural expansion of your consciousness into full consciousness. As your consciousness expands, it will affect everything else -- your body, your surroundings, the quality of your interaction with your environment. You will begin to merge with the Mind of the Creator. You will experience the peace and serenity, the infinite spaciousness of that, and you will become that peace; you will become that spaciousness that is vast enough to hold it all within you -- in love and without judgment. That is where you are going. That is the experience you are moving into, even now. As you move forward within time, you will gradually stop caring about where you are going and when. The chatter and the impatience will simply fall away. You will feel when something is no longer appropriate for you -- whether it is the clamor of the media, the noise of deepening conflict, or anything else that is not in keeping with this deep sense of peace and infinite space. When this occurs, simply let go and let God. Let the peace and spaciousness of the Creator become your field of play. Let go of anything that does not belong in that space. You don't have to engage in conflict. You can simply let go of your resistance, of your attachments to being "right" or "better than." You can simply let go and let God. Let everyone do the same for themselves. If people have attachments to their way of seeing and being, allow them to remain that way. They will receive what is perfect for them, also. This is an "operation" based in love and respect for all choices. Be responsible for YOUR choices, and let everyone else have the same privilege.

ASCENSION IS A PROCESS, PART ONE
October 17, 2001

All right, now. We have asked to speak to you today to give you our perspective on the process of ascension, as it is being experienced in your space/time reality. We have qualified our remarks by that last phrase--as it is being experienced in your space/time reality. The process you are undergoing and experiencing now is different in several ways from what has been described in the "literature" that has reached you regarding this process/event. This process has never before occurred on your planet on a mass scale, and not only is a portion of the human species ascending now, but the planet and everything on her is being subjected to the same process of rising through the vibrational layers. In your historical past, there have been isolated individuals who have walked this path and there have been some isolated groups of people who have also made this journey, but this has never before happened on a global scale, and most certainly not for the planet itself.

Therefore, the descriptions of this process that have reached you have been vague and lacking in detail. The most explicit writings that have survived have described an apparent "event," as if ascension took place in an instant. In some rare cases, the process did indeed appear to come to a head rather suddenly, as if a threshold was crossed and things changed rather markedly, but even if this is what happened then, this is NOT what is happening now. For you who are bound for Terra, your ascension is ongoing and will be a process that continues long after the Earth itself has ascended to her glorified form, as Terra. We want to go into some detail today about how that is occurring and what to expect as the process proceeds.

Let us begin with some basics, to summarize some of the ground we have already covered in our prior communications with you. The process of ascension involves a change in frequency of vibration and a change in consciousness that carries with it some other phenomena and abilities. You are engaged in this process now, and you are already experiencing some of the changes in perception that go with this change. That will continue and grow more evident as things progress through linear time. It has ALREADY happened, when viewed from outside of time, but since your focus of attention is presently located from within the experience of linear time, we are describing things from your present view, rather than ours.

Most, if not all, of you reading this have been experiencing many of the symptoms of this process. We have mentioned before the bodily changes that are involved, and the clearings that take place as each successive frequency band is traversed. You are by now quite familiar with some of this, and as things proceed, those things will continue, as well. Your preferences in foods, in music--in every aspect of your life--will shift with the ongoing change in your consciousness. Your energy levels will fluctuate greatly as you withdraw from those things that used to fascinate you and begin to move more inward. You will find your need for rest increasing, as your energy becomes more involved with integrating the ongoing cellular activity and your bodies prepare for your new forms to occur. You may become more sensitive to stresses in the Earth's crust, to disturbances in the electromagnetic spectrum, and to some of the technologies being employed by the power elite. You can support your transition in many ways, but the key word here is self-nourishment. Do those things that make YOU more comfortable. Because you are of the STO-polarity orientation, it is natural for you to want to turn your energies outward toward serving others, but it is at this time that you need to prepare yourself for your subsequent service, which requires that you take care of your own needs first at this time. If you take the longer view, all of the care that you give to yourself and those close to you now will be an "investment" in the treasure that you will make available to others when the time comes for you to do that.

Think of it this way: You have a tool you call a ratchet. It is used to turn things like screws and bolts in a forward direction and makes use of the leverage of torque. After each turn forward, the ratchet pulls back and powers up for the next turn forward. The screws and the bolts are constructed with spiral tracks on them that cause them to move forward by being turned or cycled by the tool that turns them. The ratchet provides forward motion by dropping back to power up for the next thrust forward. The spiral is the shape of evolution, and each turn on the spiral is a movement forward as well as outward or inward. By withdrawing and turning your energies toward your own process and comfort now, you are powering up your next turn on the spiral, your next movement forward and outward, and you are becoming the agent for service beyond that which you are capable of now. So look at this time of withdrawal as being the ratchet, gathering energy for the next movement forward and outward. You will be in center stage soon enough, but this is your process now, in preparation for that next movement in your lives.

So this process of ascension involves a withdrawal from the world around you. Many, if not most, of you are feeling this now, and some of you are not knowing how to be with that experience. We have talked much about the necessity of withdrawing and detaching from the drama around you. We want to emphasize how necessary this is to your process now. The world around you will get along without your need to feed it with your energy now. It is on a crash course with oblivion and will pass away within the next few years. You are not needed in this world now. Your task now is to prepare for your service at the end of this world and to blaze the pathway to the next reality that will follow. There is nothing for you to do with regard to stopping what is playing out in the amphitheater, the drama you see on the world's perceptual screen. You are playing in a different play now, and that dying world is supposed to die. All of the symptoms of past human experience are leaving the planet, are coming up to view as they exit this plane. It is all being flushed to the surface in a grand cleansing of all that has gone before and it is a purification for the planet and everything on her. It is not helped by resistance on your part. It is helped by your allowing the process to unfold, to accept the process for what it is, and for you to stop giving it your energy and attention. All attempts to stop what is going on are forms of resistance and only make things more intense. Every particle of resistance requires a matching energy to overcome it, so if you can "let go and let God" take care of the process, you will be doing the highest and best thing you can for the smoothest transition for all.

Ascension is a process, not an event. There is a threshold that is crossed at some point in the process when the veil has fallen away and one can see fully. But that is only one minute step in a long journey. Ascension does not end when the veil falls. The journey continues forever, with the inbreath back into the Godhead, the dissolving away of separate identity, and the emergence again as a separate identity with the next outbreath from the Godhead. It is all just the Creator, breathing Itself out into expression, inhaling Itself back into Itself, and breathing Itself out into expression again. This process never ends and the journey of experience never ends, so it will be helpful to your process if you can accept that there is no "ending" in sight for you. You will go on, eternally, also, for you are the expression of the Creator and that never ends--for you or for the Creator.

So those of you who might be expecting an "event" need to readjust your thinking a bit. Think of a movie you have seen. Each frame of the movie exists as a separate "event," but they all blend together seamlessly in an event flow that is experienced more like a process than as separate events. Each breath you take is an "event," but you take for granted the process that occurs when you breathe. The air enters you, the oxygen moves into your bloodstream and enters your cells, and from there, each atom of oxygen participates in different chemical processes. Then those atoms combine with other atoms and new compounds are made, energy is produced, and end products such as carbon dioxide are passed out into the bloodstream to be carried to your lungs and exhaled. Think of it! All of this is going on in your body with every breath you take! All of this is going on in your body with every breath you exhale. Every breath is an event, but each breath--each event--is part of a larger process, in which your body functions, you experience life through all of your senses, and the whole complexity of life as you know it proceeds.

So it is with this ascension process. It is made up of many "events," strung together in a process that is complex and experienced through all of your senses. There are cycles in this process and there is a movement forward and upward, followed by a time of integration. This integration process requires energy. It requires energy that would normally be given to other activities. When you fix your attention on the drama, you are taking away energy from your ascension and giving it to the drama. You are not supporting your ascension as fully as you might, so we would ask you to give your ascension the priority over the drama, if you are not already doing so. If you are heading toward Terra, your life will be more difficult for you if you do not align fully with your ascension. Your resistance will require that life provides a force in your life that is sufficient to overcome your resistance, so that you can fulfill your life's goal.

Your life has a plan to it--a built-in direction in which you must go--and your thoughts and impulses arise from the Oversoul that creates you as an expression of itself. Your Oversoul has made you the way you are, down to the color of your eyelashes and your preference for a certain type of food. However, you are not an island, floating in the emptiness of space. You live in a rich matrix of experience, and being sensitive, you can easily get caught up in the swirl of emotions that are flooding your experiential field from so many sources. Your media play on those emotions as a way of getting you to do things, such as buy certain products or engage in certain behaviors. Your political machine plays on those emotions to further that agenda. Your power elite play on those emotions to get you to go in the direction they want you to go. If you want to be free, if you want to be sovereign, you need to detach from the drama. You need to find ways of being "in the world," but not "of it." If you work for a living, you need to find a way of continuing to do that without getting caught up in the emotions that are swirling around you. You don't have to tune them out altogether. That would probably be impossible to maintain, anyway. What you have to learn to do is become TRANSPARENT to them--to let them pass without engaging with them in a similar fashion. If someone around you is upset, you don't have to join them in being upset. If someone near you is angry, you don't have to engage with them from that kind of energy. You can be calm in the midst of the chaos, and it will be much better for you if you do so.

The process of ascension is already underway. It is unstoppable at this point and the cleansing is unstoppable also. Your only meaningful response is to step back and create an island of calm in yourself. Create that space within you, and if you find yourself getting caught up in the drama, bring yourself gently back to that space of calm as soon as you become aware that you have left it. That is why meditation is such good training for this process. In meditation, inevitably your mind wanders and thoughts come. It is a discipline to bring your mind gently back to the breath or whatever it is you are focusing on in your meditation. It is a discipline to bring yourself back to your center and calm whenever you find yourself getting caught up in the drama. By cultivating this habit of remaining calm and centered in the midst of the chaos, you will be a great force--collectively speaking--for calm in the midst of chaos in the world.

You hold a template within yourself, and these Messages are an attunement device that is energizing that template through more and more people all over the world. You are widely separated from each other because you must cover the globe and there are so few of you to do this task now. As each person finds their way to this material and comes into resonance with it, a field effect is created that is so powerful, you would have trouble comprehending it. You are like a growing wave, enveloping the planet--bringing in the higher light and grounding it into the planet; radiating out the new pattern of energy and shattering the existing paradigm by your holding forth this way of being in the midst of the chaos.

You are peaceful warriors--warriors for truth, warriors for peace and love and joy. Your "mission" is to simply BE where you are, holding forth what you are, holding the vision and promise of Terra, holding your place in the world, letting things unfold and holding steady in the midst of it all. The interesting thing about this is that when you do this, you create that reality that you want to live in, right where you are. You CREATE a little bit of Terra, right now, where you are. You CREATE peace by being at peace. You CREATE love by resting in love. You CREATE joy by allowing your joy to exist in the midst of so much sorrow. Life has beauty that you can perceive. Focus on beauty, and you will become beautiful. Your inner radiance will bless all who come in contact with you, and you will birth beauty in the midst of the horror.

All your life, you felt out of step with the rest of the world. Well, you are STILL out of step with the rest of the world and now you know why. The rest of the world is passing away and you are the bringers of the new dawn on the horizon. You are stepping forth in your role as co-creators of a new reality, and your path runs counter to that of the rest of the world. You have been out of step because you are paving a new road, a road that leads to freedom. You are not going in the same direction as the rest of the world, and so you are diverging more and more each day from the direction they are taking. You must do exactly what others are not willing or able to do. You must be what you came to be and do what you came to do. It is a solitary thing for you for now, but a day is coming when you will be rejoined with the others and there is a gathering taking place even now. You are being gathered onto your road, that road that goes to Terra, and you are leaving behind the other roads that lead to other destinations. Follow your calling. Follow that inner voice that leads you, step by step, in the direction of your destiny. Step out onto that untraveled road that unfurls before you now. You are creating it with every step you take and we are with you, supporting each and every step, so it is a collective undertaking. We are a team--those of us in the higher realms, and those of you who are walking this road on the ground. We shall speak more on this subject, but for now we leave you in peace and honor and blessing. We love you and are with you at all times, and you are well on your way home. It is not much further now. You can do this. It is what you came to do.

A LAST LOOK AROUND
October 9, 2001

All right, now. Everything we said was coming has now arrived at your door, but there is so much more to the picture than you see at this moment in time. There are things arriving into your reality that are beyond your wildest imagination--of both kinds. Side by side, now, you will witness -- literally -- the "greatest show on Earth." You will see things occur of unspeakable majesty and beauty and you will see things of unspeakable horror and tragedy. Both will occur side by side.

The human species has the capability for both of these extremes -- ecstasy and agony. It has the ability to create them and to experience them. And indeed, throughout the human journey on Earth, it has done both, over and over again. But now, as the final years dwindle away, it is time for the grand finale -- the last "act" of the human drama on this planet, at this density, for a very, very long time.

And so we would ask you to take a last look around before it is gone. Take a look at the world around you, as it is right now, for it will soon pass away altogether. Take a look at it as if you were suddenly told that you had but a few years to live, for in fact, that is the truth. You have only a few years left before this entire stage will be swept bare and none of what you can see will remain. But even before THAT, the world as you have known it --as you have taken it for granted would always be there -- will be radically changed. The wars that are beginning now are just the beginning of the changes. Everything in the human experience will be revisited in some way, if not at a global level, then at a personal and individual level. All of your "personal histories," across all of the lives that were created throughout time, will be summed up now, and you will find that any remnants of old patterns will come flying back in your face to be balanced and cleared so that you can finally move beyond them -- beyond this world and all of its experiences, altogether.

So how would you feel if you were told you had, say, 18 months to live? What would your priorities be? How important would it be to plan a "next career," or to plan anything, for that matter? What would you want to do most if you had only 18 months left? Who would you talk to? What would you say? Where would you want to live? What would you want to do? Is there some unfinished business left in your life? What do you need to do now to finish it? We suggest that you begin to think in these ways now, as there is not much more time than that left for you to do those sorts of things. That is not to say that there will be a Pole Shift in 18 months, but we are saying that the world will be so different by then that the time will be over for these kinds of questions for you.

We are not saying that there is an urgency or emergency about this. What we are saying is that you should treasure these last days of relative normalcy as they are fast disappearing and will never be seen again. Despite the wars that are beginning, it will be a while before they extend to the entire world. It will be a while before the food supplies are gone for much of the world's populations. It will be a while before the technology is in place that will create a global surveillance system. It will be a while, but it will not be much longer.

So take a last look around you. Savor all that it is to be a human being. Spend some time reflecting on your memories before you pack them away forever. Take some extra time with your loved ones, and consider what is really important to you now. Savor the seasons and their moods. Savor the good things of life, without being extravagant. Find balance. Be good to yourself in ways that are truly nourishing--good food, good friends, and "quality time" with those you care about. Say "no" to the pressures that keep you on the treadmill of doing and start spending more time being. The things that fill you are the simple ones--a hand held, a sunset, the passage of a flight of birds through the sky. Feel your connection to the planet. Feel your connection to the stars. Feel your connection to the entire span of the human drama, in all of its forms, in all of its ages, and in all of its color and richness and moods.

Look at the animals around you and give them more love, too. Give your trees a hug. Give your plants a special treat--perhaps some fresh soil or a new pot. Show your appreciation for all of life and it will appreciate you in return.

How often do you take time to appreciate yourself? In your habits, in your conditioning, there is so much criticism to offer -- of others, of yourself, of the way the world is run. How much time do you take to appreciate your world? Do it now. Do it more often. Make it a new habit.

When you sit down to a meal, do you take a moment to appreciate it? Or is it something that is taken for granted? There are many in the world who will not have a meal tonight, or the next night, or the night after that. Appreciate your meal. Appreciate the life that was given by the plants and the animals so that you could have that meal. Appreciate the work that was done by the growers, the pickers, and the preparers so that you could have that meal. If you have good health, appreciate that. If you have pain, appreciate that. Appreciate your ability to feel, to see, to hear, to draw breath. There are many who cannot do even that.

Celebrate life in a quiet way. Soften your walk, soften your talk. Be good to yourself and to others. If you buy something, appreciate it enough to make it a worthwhile purchase. Instead of "making do," make it special. That does not mean it has to be costly. It means you have to take the time and attention to ask yourself what it is you would really enjoy. Live your life with conscious attention. Consider the invisible web that binds you to others through everything you do in every day. When you turn on the water at the sink, someone else made that possible for you to do. When you lie down in your bed at night, someone else made that possible for you to do. Someone made the bed. Someone made the sheets. Someone delivered it to the store where it was bought. Someone built the room in which you lie. Maybe it was you, but then you used materials that someone else made available.

Take a last look around and see how everything there is was made possible in so many ways by so many people around the world. There already is a global economy and no part exists in isolation from the others. You already are part of a global society, and what happens in one part of the world affects every other part. There is no movement made, no breath drawn, anywhere in the world that does not affect every other part in the world, whether you are aware of it or not. Appreciate your connection to everything else. It is there. You can feel it. FEEL it! Don't think about it so much. Feel it. Feel how you are part of the intricate web of life, of the flow of life and even of death. Appreciate these days and appreciate all that you are in these days, for you are changing, too.

We have talked about a homecoming, but there is also a home-leaving. You are all going to be going to somewhere else very soon, so appreciate your life and your world now as if you are seeing it for the first time, so you will be complete with it when it is time to go. You are going to be off on a grand adventure, one that will take you beyond all things that you know now, but to complete with THIS world with grace and ease, take time to take that last look around, knowing that you will be leaving soon.

When we say "soon," that is relative, but even within the span of your present time, it will be soon enough. Soon enough for you to leave while you can still remember this world as it is now. Long enough for you to be glad to move on to another world with no backward glances or things undone. It is time, now, to face these things. It is time, now, to do these things. It is time, now.

We have said before to allow all things. We say now to embrace all things. We have said before to let go of your attachments, to receive the lifting. We say now to hold out your hand, your heart, and your soul to receive the richness of your life now. Be grateful for all things, large and small. Be in an "attitude of gratitude" and you will feel yourself blessed beyond counting. In the midst of the wars, you can have peace, you can have joy, and you can share love. The wars will go on 'till it's over, but you can live fully and joyfully in their midst. We do not say this lightly. You hold the template of a new tomorrow and as the dying proceeds, so does the birthing. Just as in life things pass away in their time, so too, does new life come and bring the promise of a new day. Yesterday and tomorrow meet in the ever-present NOW. Yesterday and tomorrow are defined by the present moment, the bead on the string that moves steadily toward its destiny. You are the dawn-bringers and after the twilight fades and the world is engulfed in darkness, you will come again with the light, to wipe away the tears and bring peace.

STEADY AS SHE GOES
October 2, 2001

All right, then. We have asked to speak to you today because there are numerous shocks on the horizon, and we wanted to give you a possible way of being with them that will greatly facilitate your comfort as you move towards your goal.

If you think about your oceans, you will have an ideal model for what we are talking about. On the surface of these great bodies of water, there is great variation in the activity one sees--from placid calm to rolling waves to great turbulence and violent storms. So it is with your world of everyday living. It varies tremendously, from placid calm and moments of true peace through varying degrees of instability, stress, and outright crisis. If one goes deeply down into the depths of the oceans, there are powerful currents and a rich absence of turbulence--a profound presence of silence, power, and potential adventure, encased in a soothing smoothness of texture and sound. If you withdraw from your ordinary world and dive deeply within, it is similar. There you will find a profound presence of power, potential adventure, and a deep, calming release.

So as these storms come into the world about you, it would be wise to take refuge in the deep stillness within yourself, to experience the safety of that, to follow the deep currents of your life, and to thread your way through the vast oceans of inner space toward your goal.

In wartime, there is a ship called a submarine. It makes use of reflected sound, much as the dolphins and whales find their way in their watery home. A sound is sent out and then returned, so the distance from other objects is sensed and they can be avoided. You send out your sound into the universe and it is returned to you, guiding you through the waters ahead as you slide forward, toward your goal.

The submarine can dive deep, to avoid detection at the surface, and to get to its goal and deliver its payload or cargo. In wartime, there are minefields that must be traversed. There are sometimes explosions nearby. It takes a skilled hand and steady nerves to traverse the oceans and move steadily toward one's goal. When the captain of a submarine is satisfied with the vessel's direction, depth, and speed, he calls to the crew, "Steady as she goes." By this, he communicates that the ship should maintain its direction, depth, and speed, until and unless he gives a different command. We would say that our "sub" toward Terra has begun its voyage through the oceans of inner space. We left the old world behind on August 18 and have been increasing our depth and speed ever since. In a few short days, we will begin traversing the mine fields and there will be explosions all around, but our direction will always be "Steady as she goes." So it is with you. In your voyage through these times, you must say to yourself, "Steady as she goes." You must stay steady on your course to Terra, let the explosions happen as they will, and have the sure knowledge that whatever happens around you, you will not waver at the helm.

Steady as she goes. Remain steady and stay the course. Keep your eyes on the goal. Steady as she goes. Let the rest fall around you. Steady as she goes. Your path is straight, you are protected. Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes.

Feel the quiet. Listen to your breathing as it comes in softly and goes out again. Listen to the distant sounds of war and know you are safe. Steady as she goes. Feel the dull impacts of the explosions. Steady as she goes. Check your fuel supply. You are fine. Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes.

As these days unfurl in front of you, remind yourself, "Steady as she goes." You can do this. You came to do this. This is why you are here. Hold your course. Hold your speed. Stay below the surface events and "Steady as she goes." Steady as she goes. Distant sounds, distant storms, but steady as she goes.

Each of you has come for this, for this time, for this task. Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes. Hold the vision; seek the goal. Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes.

Take this Message and read it again. Steady as she goes. Keep it with you to remind you. Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes.

Time is passing now and each day takes you closer to the goal. Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes.

Remind yourself how far you have come. Not much further to go. Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes. Be steady in your course and speed. Steady as she goes.

We are with you now, guiding you, protecting you, sheltering you. Dive deep. Stay deep. Follow your course. Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes. Make a shelter for yourself, create the stillness where you are. Turn off the madness, the screaming, the crying, the pleading. Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes. Turn off the madness. Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes.

Hear the water sliding by. Steady as she goes. Hear the muffled roar and thunderous crashing of storms and wind-driven waves overhead. Go deep. Stay deep. Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes.

We are with you, every day, every night--guiding you, loving you, protecting you. Steady as she goes. Leave behind the surface world. Seek the power of deep ocean. Follow your course. Leave behind the madness. Steady as she goes.

In time... with sufficient time... you will emerge in your new reality, but for now, you must glide through the deep waters of deep ocean. Steady as she goes. Keep your eyes on the goal. Steady as she goes.

We leave you now in peace and honor and blessing, but we are with you in your dreams, in your waking, in your sailing through the deep waters. Steady as she goes... Steady as she goes. Amen, Adonoy Sabayoth. We are the Hosts of Heaven. Steady as she goes.

Commentary from Lyara:
Oct 2, 2001 - I have just sent out the new Message, "Steady As She Goes." It is up on the site and appended to the downloadable files. The pictures that go with this are as much a part of the experience as the words.

As this came in, I became aware of the words becoming a refrain, like a soothing melody without the music--a guided meditation, a mantra, a lullaby. I felt the closeness of those who are guiding us now, and I knew from the depth of this Message that it will be something we will need to return to again and again. It's something that parents can croon to their children, something we can each say to ourselves. Steady as she goes. Steady as she goes.

It is clear that more shocks are soon to arrive and our loving friends in the higher realms have given us this gift to help us through the days ahead.

If you share the Message with others, please enclose this commentary and encourage them to go to the site. It's a meditation piece.

Peace and blessings,
Lyara

MANY WORLDS, MANY DESTINATIONS
September 27, 2001

All right, now. We have asked to speak to you today to broaden your understanding of what is unfolding on your perceptual screen. There is a complexity involved that is quite frankly beyond that which your conscious mind can grasp. And so we ask that, as you read these words, that you also open yourself to receive a deeper knowing, a deeper trust of the process that has begun and will continue until it is totally complete.

To retrace our steps a bit, we would return to the idea we gave you about the Mind of the Creator, as a matrix that contains all things that have been and will be. Each thing or event that emerges from that matrix contains within itself all of the elements for its completion--all the events that will play out within the container or envelope of that event are anticipated and come forth from the Creator Itself. Each event can be viewed as a “thought” of the Creator, thinking to Itself and exploring all of the possibilities that are available to It. These possibilities are essentially infinite, and it is easy to get lost in trying to contemplate the infinitely branching tree that makes up the Mind of the Creator, what we will call the Tree of Mind. In the Tree of Mind, every possible branch is explored through the mechanism of parallel realities. Each time there is a decision point reached, a branch is created to accommodate all possible decisions that can be experienced within that situation. Within a given Creation, there are some parameters that govern that particular Creation, and the possibilities that are available within that Creation are limited to the constraints of those parameters, which we have called Universal Laws. This much we have said before.

So, how does this relate to what you are experiencing? It works something like this: In your present experience of the Creation, there are many event envelopes overlapping each other and seeming to occupy the same space. As you look around you with your physical senses, you think that you are seeing the same thing as everyone else does, and in fact to some extent you do. But there is another mechanism operating also, which we have referred to before--the splitting off or separating out of all of the parallel “futures” that will emerge from your one shared reality--the planet you call Earth. All of these different event envelopes are heading in different directions and those of you who are in the “Terra” envelope are heading in that direction, while those who are in other envelopes are heading in other directions. Where it gets complex is when one tries to grasp how it all its together--or even how it all comes apart!

We cannot even begin to address the complexity involved, it is so vast, so we will confine ourselves to discussing the path to Terra and one other world--Terra’s mirror world, the destination that is equal to Terra, but of the opposite polarity. There are many other paths that are also occurring, but far too many for us to explore, and they do not illuminate your path as well as the contrast afforded by this one other, which shall remain unnamed.

You will recall that we have said that the polarization on the planet will increase as things move forward in time, and you see that happening now. It will continue to proceed toward even more polarization, so things will intensify along all of the paths being traversed, but these two paths--to Terra and its polar opposite--will experience this polarization at its most extreme. All of the other paths lead to other worlds, for further exploration of other themes and experiences. These two worlds are the only ones that will be purely 4D in their vibration and expression, and since Terra is one of these two worlds, the timeline that leads to Terra contains the mirrored expression of the other world, at least for a time. By the time you are lifted off of the planet, those two paths will have split off from one another, but while you are still involved in the lifting--even if you leave and come back--you will be witnessing the mirror provided by this other world and path. And we should also mention that many people will not be going to Terra, but to their own “home systems,” for a period of rest, recovery and exploration that does not involve either of these two worlds at all. And some of  THOSE worlds are “higher” in frequency than Terra, so it really is a very complex process, indeed!

All this being said, as the Earth ascends toward her destiny of becoming Terra, those who are on these two timelines--the one to Terra and the one to her opposite--will be in each other’s view for awhile. Being that you are the “caring kind” of people, it could be difficult for you to witness the playing out of the most extreme forms of the negative-polarity behaviors by those who are seeking to graduate to that other world. If you can see their actions as that--that they are having their “final exams” also--you might be able to comprehend the force that drives them to their goal--the world of THEIR dreams--just as you can comprehend your own passion to achieve your goal of Terra--the world of YOUR dreams. To you, their dreams are a waking nightmare, but you actually have much more in common than you might think. You both seek a global form of government, a common set of values, and a way to live within the available resources. However, the MEANS of achieving those goals is where you differ. You emphasize the empowerment of everyone, and they emphasize their own empowerment at the expense of everyone else. STO and STS, pure and simple.

This is the Creator’s dream, and the Creator wants to experience everything, from every possible perspective. The Creator wants to experience all of the possibilities and gets to experience them through Its creations and their interaction with each other. The Creator does not JUDGE Its creations as “good” and “bad.” The Creator expresses through Its creations, and having created them, considers them ALL “good.” They all exist to satisfy the Creator’s desire to know Itself through Its infinite possible manifestations. When it says in the Bible that God looked at Its creation and was pleased, this is how the Creator views Its creations. It is  “pleased” by ALL of its creations, not just the ones you would prefer to experience. You are the Creator-in-expression, seeking a particular pole of expression. There are others who are seeking the opposite pole, and from the Creator’s perspective, they are just as “good” as you are. You are repelled by those things that are not like you. That helps to define your experience and propel you in the direction of your seeking. It is just as true of these others of the opposite pole. They have contempt for and are repelled by those who are not like THEM and that helps propel THEM in the direction of THEIR seeking. At the core of it, it is ALL just the Creator, playing with Itself through all the possibilities made available by all Its creations.

So, from the Creator’s point of view, both Terra and its opposite--this all-negative-polarity world--are equally good, because they provide the Creator with the opportunity to fully explore those two opposite poles. All of the OTHER worlds that emerge from this one shared reality that you call “Earth” will be spread across the spectrum BETWEEN those two poles and have varying proportions of that mixture of STO and STS. There will be worlds that are primarily inclining toward STO, and as they progress, some of those people will incarnate on Terra as babies born to those who are already there. There will be worlds that will be primarily STS and they will progress to the world that is Terra’s opposite and incarnate there. And there will be still other worlds that remain somewhat mixed and be rich environments in which to explore both poles, and they will progress in that way for many thousands of years until another grand cycle is completed and another opportunity presents for a harvest to one pole or the other. The unfolding of the Creator’s dream is endless, and the paths of possibilities branch and branch and branch again, over and over and over, throughout eternity. There is no end to the dream.

So, in your experience now, you will be seeing an intensification of the two polarities of behaviors. The “in-between” will fade from your view. You can best see and understand yourself and your path in two ways: by reflecting off of its mirror opposite and by finding others like yourself with whom you can share your own views, your own feelings, your own experiences. We have said that if you engage with “us and them” thinking, you risk being caught up in the morass, the downward spiral into darkness and more confusion. It is all right to witness the opposite pole, as it helps you to  understand what you are NOT, but it is imperative that you detach from IDENTIFYING with it. It helps to remind you of who you are, but it does not DEFINE who you are. To the extent that you can tune out the horrors that are coming, you will preserve yourself and your self-identity. This does not mean that you should close your heart. Just the opposite! What we are saying is that you must disconnect from feeling RESPONSIBLE for what is appearing on your perceptual screen.

What is appearing on your perceptual screen is sourcing from the Creator. Each person is simply being who they came to be, according to the plan for their life. Each person is perfectly situated to make their contribution to the rich mix of experiences playing out now, and there are no “bad” creations. Each “evil” is part of the “good.” Each player is needed for the entire experience to be complete. Each event envelope contains all the elements for its completion and the entire “set” of elements is interwoven and interacting in ways that you simply cannot grasp with your mind. But your SOUL and your HEART can FEEL the truth of this, and this understanding can allow you to unlock your own potential for love. You will do best to cultivate compassion when you encounter suffering, to let yourself be deepened and hollowed out by your compassion, to keep your hearts open and tender and vulnerable and at the same time be deepened until all that you are is love.

You are not responsible for what you are seeing. You did not create it. You do not have to beat yourself about the head and shoulders in penance for some sin you committed. Everything you are, everything you have done, is all within the plan for your life. The place you CAN be responsible is for your own RESPONSES to the situation. Your own responses are your own process of working out who you are, why you are here, and where you are going. You are one aspect of the Creator, providing the Creator with a particular experience through the locus of your perception as an individualized aspect of the Creator. If you must “blame” anyone, you must blame the Creator. If you must be angry, you must be angry at the Creator. Everywhere you look, everything you see, is the Creator-in-expression. The people who die are the Creator. The people who kill them are the Creator. If you can just “get” this, you will have peace, you will transcend the phenomenal reality, and you will be that much closer to “home.”

We leave you now, in peace and honor and blessing. Amen, Adonoy Sabayoth.
We are the Hosts of Heaven.

THE CROSSROADS
September 18, 2001

Dear ones, we know your hearts are heavy when you consider what is going on in the world around you. We are with you always, sheltering you with our love and showering grace upon you. We walk amongst you in human form, too, although you would not recognize us except by our actions or how you feel in our presence. But we are here, to share this journey with you, and you must know this so completely that you can feel our presence for yourself. The world will be seeing angels and devils at the same time, depending on the "glasses" being worn by the viewer. Those who harbor hate, anger, and revenge within their own heart will see devils, evil, and enemies everywhere. Those who hold the heartfelt desire for love, compassion, and a better world will see angels there to help. What one sees is a reflection of what is within. It is the way the Creator gets to see Itself, reflected in Its creations.

This notion of good and evil had served to allow people to explore duality, and it has served well. Those notions are well established in the Earth's religions and moral codes. However, it is time to put those notions aside now, as they have been exhausted in their capacity to inform you. Everything that is being put forth in the torrent of words that has flowed following the attacks has been a summary of all the knowledge and beliefs that were accumulated before that time. Nothing really new is being said. No new revelations are being brought forward. Only former responses, dressed up in new clothes. The body is the same underneath, and the responses are totally predictable, based on one's views as they existed before the attacks took place.

This is a very fertile time, with many opportunities. In one sense, it is a great summing up of all the knowledge and experience that has occurred throughout all the lives that have been lived across the history of the planet. If one looks upon Earth as a laboratory, in which many experiments have taken place, this could be considered the time when the results are written up and published. Everyone can then see what has been learned from the experiments, and those conclusions provide the foundation for wholly new experiments, as life and time move on.

In each of the exchanges taking place -- and there are so many now taking place -- one is presented with a choice of how to respond. Will you get sucked into the chaos? Will you sit there day after day, wringing your hands and reliving the scenes over and over? Will you stop living and be glued to the television set, instead? You have a choice. You can remain caught up in the dramas, passing along the latest bit of news or "proof" of this theory or that, or you can detach and let it go. We are not saying to disregard the requests for help that come to you directly. We are not saying to not offer your prayers and love to others. We are talking about the way you feed your minds and emotions, the way you let yourself be used as a source of food for those who feed off YOUR emotions, for there are those who do that, as strange as it might seem.

It has been some time since we talked of the two polarities, and now it would be good to return to that topic. If you will recall, those of the STS [service to self] polarity are about gaining power over others. For them, there is never enough power, as the lack of love in their hearts leaves them so empty of feeling that they cannot ever have anything but the most fleeting of satisfactions. In some ways, even those who control the world's resources are among the most poverty-stricken: despite their great material wealth, they lead empty lives, built around the acquisition of things -- of inanimate and abstract things that can never give or return love -- and they promote death rather than life. They may have the finest wines, the finest clothing, and live the life of kings, but they are also "slaves to their habit," insatiable in their need for more and more power, more and more of everything, a lonely existence indeed. These things do not bring them happiness. These things do not bring them joy or peace. They bring them cynicism rather than hope. They bring them bitterness rather than sweetness. Their children are not free to follow their dreams. Their wives are picked because of the alliances they build, not for love. It is like the royal families in times past. They are rulers who must watch their gates, who must always be alert for those others who covet their position, who must always do things that serve their calculated ends. What pleasure is there in that? What freedom is there in that?

Therefore, the hardness of their hearts, their cynicism and contempt for the rest of the world, and the sterility of their lives leaves them empty, isolated, and bored. Business comes first, and the long walk toward the goal takes its toll, requires its own sacrifices, and leaves one more alone than before. The satisfaction of counting one's pile of money is hollow, indeed, and the simplest child who is free to play in a natural way is richer by far, in our way of measuring things.

All must play out, and if you but knew the extent to which these few have robbed the rest, you would be justifiably angry. They have robbed much more than just money and power and resources. They have robbed the world of hope, honesty, and so many of its potential joys. However, they did not get this way unaided. Every single person has contributed to their wealth and power by being part of the economic system. If you would be free of that, if you would want to stop supporting the power elite, consider what would be required. You would have to supply all of your own needs, forever. You could never make a phone call, mail a letter, turn on your oven, or take part in any of the fruits of civilization -- libraries, entertainment, even your food and medicine, your homes and vehicles... Think about it. Every day, in so many countless ways, you pay for things that are the fruits of other people's labor, with money. And they labor to get money to buy the things that they need for their lives, which were in turn produced by still other people's labor.

Money is only an agreed-upon means of exchange. It has no value in itself. And now that you have electronic communication, electronic storage of data, and the interconnection of the computers with one another across phone lines and satellites, all of your money isn't even necessary except on a local level. Everything is stored as ones and zeros in computers. Yours is a society built upon computers. Even in the most primitive regions, eventually money comes into play, and then if you trace it back to its source, there is a computer involved. So while you are angry at these people and their contempt for the rest of the world, you must also accept responsibility for giving them their power in the first place. It did not happen overnight. This move toward the centralization of power in the hands of the few has been going on for a long time -- a very long time, indeed.

One of the things that will come out of the chaos in these days is an opportunity to reflect on just about everything. You will notice that, as people struggle to come to grips with what is unfolding, they run into conflicts of logic. On the one hand, some of you feel that you should not go to war, and yet you also feel that the attack cannot just be allowed to go by without a response. You are caught between two conflicting desires within yourself. You desire to be free, to not support the system that deals in wars as a solution to problems, but you also want the comforts that that system gives you. And even if you decided to go out into the wilderness somewhere and live off the land, what would that give you? Where would you go if you injured yourself? How would you survive? It is true that there are still some people on the Earth that live close to the land. Are they necessarily happy because of that, or are their lives just as filled with struggle as yours is? They spend nearly all of their time obtaining food or creating shelter or passing time through telling stories or performing rituals. They are not so different from you after all. You spend nearly all of your time "earning a living," and your stories just come in different forms -- videos, movies, television programs, books, newspapers, and magazines, and personal pages on the "Web." There is not really so much difference after all.

So where are we heading with this? It is simply this: until you are able to manifest your needs directly from the matrix of Source, you will never be free. You will always be participating in a struggle for life and there will always be some who have more power than others and use it to take advantage of others for their own benefit. Are they evil? Or are they just stuck in the same prison as you? Despite their wealth, they are just as enslaved as you are. None of you has true freedom.

We have come to a place in the unfolding where you will be presented with choices of a very different nature. It will no longer be about what you will wear today, or what you will make for dinner, or when to wash the dishes. These will be fundamental choices, a kind of "final exam," with little boxes to mark on a scoring sheet. When presented with events, will you choose to descend into the pit of anger and strife or will you choose to reach higher, to transcend your mundane existence and grab hold of the next rung on the ladder toward "heaven"? We have called this Message "The Crossroads" because that represents the experience you have at this time. You will be presented with many "crossroads" in the days ahead. Which path will you choose? The one that leads downward into chaos and death or the one that leads upward into order and life?

We have already described the polarities in these terms: STS is a choice for entropy, chaos, and death. STO [service to others] is a choice for order (love is the ordering force, acting on the matrix of light that underlies all form) and for life. It affirms life. These two polarities are actually two opposing forces, and their respective outcomes are predictable if you can see them clearly enough. One spiral leads downward and one spiral leads upward. You will have the opportunity, over and over again, to choose in which direction you want to go -- the spiral upward or the spiral downward.

When you get caught up in ideas that there is an enemy -- and there is certainly enough evidence to work with for that idea -- you perpetuate the experience of being a victim. You choose the downward spiral. Are there people working in concert -- a conspiracy toward certain aims? Absolutely. But are you working in concert with others to create a new world, to assist the planet in her ascension? We hope so! Is that a conspiracy, too? Are you "conspiring" to bring about "Heaven on Earth"? We hope so! There is nothing inherently evil in working together with others toward particular aims. Consider a gun. It is just a piece of metal, cast in a certain form and design. It can be used to pound in nails, as a paperweight, or as a lethal weapon. Its design is carefully crafted to be a lethal weapon, but it does not become that until someone picks it up and uses it that way.

So it is with all these ideas of "conspiracy" that are flying about at this time. If you would choose the upward spiral, you would leave those ideas behind, and not victimize yourself through them. If there are perpetrators, there are victims. Only if you wear the lenses that enable you to see the Creator wherever you look are you finally free of being a victim. Then and only then are you free of the system and from contributing toward its progress toward world domination -- power over others -- that is the hallmark of the STS polarity. We are saying this to you with all seriousness. This is the crossroads you will face over and over again. Will you reach upward to realize your own divinity and dwell in "heaven" or will you succumb to the chaos and choose the road to "hell"? Those are the two choices before you. There are only two. How do you choose now and how will you choose the next time the choice presents? Every time you have to choose how to respond to what is presenting will be another crossroads for you. You will find it easier over time, because you will have left the other choices behind, and as you discover that you prefer to continue in the direction in which you find peace, it will be easier to choose for that direction.

We leave you now in peace and honor and blessing.
Amen, Adonoy Sabayoth. We are the Hosts of Heaven.

SHATTERING GLASS
September 14, 2001

All right, now. The first "bomb" has been dropped and the cloud of the aftermath is billowing forth across the entire planet. How does this fit in with the overall plan? How is one to be with the scenes of horror and pain? How can one bear the load of believing in truth, kindness, and love in the face of such an act and the pain it inflicts?

Dear ones, we know your hearts are heavy and saddened by such scenes on your perceptual screens. We know you are sympathetic with those impulses toward goodness, beauty and mercy. We know you deeply care for this planet and all upon it, as we do. Therefore, we would offer the following as our contribution toward your process of coming to grips with that which is now unfolding upon your planet, and to further the deepening of your awareness of just what that is and what it will require of you.

You have incarnated here at this time to perform a very special and difficult task, in service to the planet (and secondarily to all upon her). Your focus is the planet, and the assistance you can give to the planet as she begins rising toward her new form and being as Terra. You are assistants in the birthing of this new world, and once this "launch phase" is complete, you will withdraw from her for a time until the trajectory is complete and she has arrived and manifested in her new state. At that time, all that were taken off the planet for this particular purpose will become the architects of the new society, the gardeners of the new garden, Terra. Please note that there are many other destinations and we are addressing our remarks to those who have this special task. They do not apply to anyone else at this time.

As we have said before, you are human lightning rods, grounding the higher light into the core of the planet. This light is a cleansing light, and is aiding the planet in shedding all those thoughtforms that she has absorbed over the course of her history as the host for all of the lifeforms that have come forth upon her surface. As the planet rises through the frequency bands, all of those thoughtforms that she contains will be cast off, largely through the force of the light being beamed down into the planet from the higher realms--through your sun, through the galactic core, and through each of you. You are each supporting the cleansing of the planet, and the scenes you witness (such as what just occurred) are the outpicturing of those thoughforms that are being flushed to the surface--pictures of hatred for others to such a degree it seeks to annihilate them and cause them every conceivable arm--personal, economic, humiliation, and so forth.

You have a saying, "What goes around, comes around." Some of you are also aware of the concept of karma--that whatever action proceeds from a place of imbalance must be balanced by an equal and opposite action of some kind. What you may NOT be aware of is that there is an invisible wall--a threshold that separates your present Creation from the Creation that is about to be birthed, on the other side of the "blink."

Your planet is moving upward in frequency and forward in time, as viewed from within linear time. It is approaching this barrier, this threshold, and all actions that source from imbalance will receive their answering action, like an echo bouncing off that barrier and returning to the source of the imbalanced energies, as a correction and offset to those actions. The Earth is ascending now, and can no longer absorb these things, as she has throughout her history. What this means is that two things will be going on simultaneously, and will tend to amplify one another as things proceed.

First, there is the shedding of the thoughtforms of previous actions, from other times in the Earth's history. All of those thoughtforms that are not in keeping with the higher frequency bands will surface and be re-enacted in a present time context, so they can be experienced and balanced by those who are ready to receive them as that kind of opportunity--who are ready to shift their own historical response to another kind of response, one based on mercy, love, kindness, compassion, and unifying with those whom they previously opposed. The second thing that will be going on will be the echoes of present-time actions, the answering actions that mirror and reflect the initial actions, so that the sources of those actions have an opportunity to shift their response to a different kind of response, also.

Both of these things--the echoes from the past and the echoes from the present--will be going on simultaneously, which will intensify and multiply the effects as the planet moves upward and forward towards its own destination. How this will be experienced by each "observer"--each set of eyes and ears that are present to witness this--will vary, according to the "filters" that are in place in that individual. So some will see things that they feel called upon to avenge. Others will see things that they feel called upon to heal. Still others will respond in other ways. It is all a very individual thing, so that the Creator can experience Itself through all the perspectives available through all of Its creations. We would remind you that nothing exists that is not part of and contained within the Creator, and the greatest comfort is obtained by making that connection with the Creator and aligning one's personal will with the Creator's will. "Not my will, but thy will" is the way it was said 2,000 years ago, and it is still valid now.

So what does this mean at a practical level, and what is your proper response and most appropriate service, given the above? First of all, you must understand and come to terms with the enormity of what is unfolding. Consider that you are dealing with the outpicturing of ALL ACTIONS that occurred throughout the entire history of the planet, up to and including those actions that are arising in present time. That is the size of the burden that planet has carried as her service to those upon her, so that maximum opportunities for experience could occur. We are talking about the compression of millions and BILLIONS of years' worth of events into the span of your present time, which will complete in a few years from now. Take a breath and let the scope of the register deeply within you, as you receive the confirmation of what you already know to be true.

There is some relief in this picture, given that most of the imbalance has sourced from the most recent periods of history, and that some of the actions that arise in the present are in themselves echoes from prior periods, being revisited in your present time, so you might say that there is some inherent efficiency in this process, as present actions can act to correct and balance prior ones at the same time as they are corrected and balanced. Nonetheless, the burden of the planet is enormous, the timespan is relatively short, and so the potential intensity of the process is almost inconceivable, if you could indeed grasp it at all.

But there is help being given in enormous quantities, also. Those of you who are embodied on the planet's surface are the point of entry for the forces of Love and Grace that are being showered down by those in the higher realms. The core of the Andromeda Galaxy (which overlights your galaxy), the Great Central Sun of your galaxy, and your own sun are all acting as lenses to step down the Light from Source and to make it available to those of you who serve on the planet's surface at this time, in amounts and "packets" that you can handle without being destroyed by their intensity and power. So your task is to allow yourselves to receive these energies and to let them flow through you unimpeded, into the planet's core. The more you can surrender your own resistance to the process and simply allow yourselves to become like hollow tubes through which the flow can pass, the more you can contribute to this process. This will also allow you to remain calm, serene, and centered while all around you is in chaos. If you allow yourselves to be used in this way, you will be promoting the highest good for ALL involved--all of the players in all of the dramas, and most of all, the planet herself.

So as you look upon each succeeding wave of change as it unfurls, you must also understand that beneath the terrible scenes, there is a great healing taking place. The fact that these issues were not dealt with in the past has only created a greater pressure for them to be dealt with now. None of you can say you have not contributed in some way to what you are witnessing now. You are all part of and intimately connected to these actions through your interconnectedness with each other, with the economic systems, and with all life on the planet. This is the deep level of understanding that is necessary for you to grasp, in order to serve this task. You must surrender up all feelings of guilt and unworthiness to aid in this service. Each of you has played the parts that were selected by your Oversouls across all of your embodiments, and all of those were chosen in harmony with the Creator's own desire to experience everything. That desire on the part of the Creator was the impulse that led to the Creation in the first place, so one must surrender to the entirety of the experience--to become large enough to hold it all within oneself, just as the Creator does.

You have all been stretched to grow in different ways in the past, but now it takes on a different face. Now you must stretch to become big enough to contain it all within yourself. This is what it means to be a Master. If you get stuck in pictures of "us and them," you are only perpetuating separation. As difficult as it may seem to attain, you must come to the place of being able to look upon all of these actions as if you yourself had authored them, because in truth, if you pursue things to their core, it is always the Creator Itself that you will find at the core, so the "true you" IS the Creator and therefore this IS your Creation, in some sense. There really isn't anything else BUT the Creator, and in time, you will have this as your complete and unending, direct experience, and then you will also have permanent peace and joy. You must each find your way to this understanding in your own way and your own time. However, if you can create a sanctuary for yourself within yourself, and deliberately choose to go into that inner sanctuary whenever these assaults upon your sensitivities occur, you will be allowing that which needs to move to move, and you will be able to remain sane and peaceful in the midst of it all. If you engage with the scenes around you and identify with them, you will be swept into the chaos and be overwhelmed by the enormity of what you perceive, to the point of hopelessness and despair if you persist in that behavior. Instead, we urge you to go within, to detach, and thereby hold the truth of the center--the calm eye in the center of the storm.

We have called this Message, "Shattering Glass" for a reason. Each of you who is connecting with the vision and vibration of Terra is emitting a sound--your particular frequency pattern in the matrix of sound that underlies the material universe. As you attune to the light codes carried in these Messages, you will re-sound them back into the universe, amplifying them and uniting them with the "broadcasts" sent up by your fellow workers who are sharing this task with you. As more and more of you find your way to these Messages and are activated by the light codes, more and more of your frequency patterns will be available to do the necessary work.

You have a phrase--"the glass ceiling." It is most often used to depict an invisible barrier to upward movement on a career path, but we are borrowing this concept now to refer to another kind of glass ceiling--an invisible frequency barrier that has surrounded this planet and kept things contained within her and cycling over and over upon her surface throughout her history as a planet--an invisible barrier that must be breached in order for the planet to move upward in her own ascension path--her own "career path." When a baby is in the womb, it is encased in a membrane or sac. When it is time for the birth, the membrane splits so that the baby can come forth unfettered and begin its new life as a new being, independent of those tissues that nourished it and protected it throughout its time in the womb.

Just so, the Earth is enclosed in a frequency barrier, similar a membrane, that must be breached or split, in order for her to come forth and begin her new life. The barrier is a container for the present experience and it must be shattered to allow movement to a new experience. Each of you is emitting a sound pattern. All of your sound patterns are beginning to converge and join together into a larger pattern, becoming amplified where you have particular frequencies that match those of the others in the group. As your own frequencies rise, the collective frequency of the group will also rise, and the sound that you emit will grow in volume, louder and louder as more and more of you are attuned by these Messages and their light codes. We are giving you the "keys" that unlock your own codings, and through these Messages, we are "tuning" your own "transmitters"--the living light crystals at the core of your cellular memory that send forth your own frequency pattern. As your individual transmissions combine with those of your group, they will amplify and rise in frequency as you do.

Perhaps you have seen a demonstration of what happens when a tone with a certain frequency pattern and sufficient power is sounded in the vicinity of a crystal glass. The glass is shattered by the modulations carried in the tone. A matching pattern of sound is set up in the material that makes up the glass via resonance with the particular frequencies contained in the vibrations of the subatomic particles in the atoms and molecules that make up that material. The modulations vibrate back and forth around the core frequencies of the material and disrupt the patterns of the atomic bonds in the glass, and shatters in response to the tone. Note that the modulation and the shattering effect is accomplished by tones that vary slightly from the prevalent tone of the material.

Each of you who is attuned to these Messages is being stimulated to emit a particular frequency pattern, and as more and more of you join in with your "notes," the collective energies and patterns will build in strength until they shatter the frequency envelope--the "glass ceiling"--that surrounds the planet. You will be shattering the energetic patterns of the existing paradigm, and opening the pathway for the emergence of a totally new world to emerge from this one. In this way, as well as the other ways we have mentioned above, you will be actively assisting in the planet's birthing into the new paradigm that will exist as Terra. All the years you have felt "out of step" with the existing paradigm are now revealed as those parts of your particular pattern that will supply the necessary deviation from the central "tone" of the existing paradigm to shatter it, on an energetic level. This is one of the reasons you have all felt so "different," as if you were "marching to a different drummer." You are! And that differentness will serve the planet by breaking the energetic bonds that maintain the material of the present paradigm.

Isn't it wonderful to know that everything you thought might be "wrong" with you is now your means to create a pathway to something utterly new? Sound and light are the elements out of which the entire Creation is formed. You bring light into the planet and you emit sound to shatter the container that has perpetuated the cycles of third-density existence. You are shattering the "glass ceiling" that has kept the planet and the people on it from advancing to the next level of being. This is a great act of service, and it has required and will continue to require much of you. The greatest act you can do to support this process is to go within, allow everything to move through you, and peacefully surrender to the process as it unfolds. By doing this, you become a "superconductor" for the higher light to enter the planet, and you emit a purer tone to shatter the glass ceiling of the existing paradigm.

There is very little you can do to affect the events that are unfolding now, except to send them love. The chief reason they occur is the lack of sufficient love on the planet. Send your love, deepen your level of acceptance, and surrender to the great force for change that is unfolding now. It is too late in the game to do much else. Join with others of like mind in whatever ways are available to you, so that you can join your sound with theirs. Give comfort and love and support to one another, also, for you have your own wounds to heal, and have need of support from others who understand. It is with great appreciation and reverence for the difficulty of your task that we leave you now, but we shall speak to you again, and soon.

Amen, Adonoy Sabayoth. We are the Hosts of Heaven.

THE TIME OF INGATHERING
September 8, 2001

Today we would like to talk to you about some of the things that are about to begin showing up on your perceptual screen. We would remind you to keep your breath open, as some of the things we will be talking about may cause some temporary discomfort to contemplate. We would prefer to not ever cause you any discomfort, but sometimes during a birth, there is some pain and pressure, and the more you can simply accept the process--in all of its aspects--the easier the process will go for you.

That being said, you--as a planetary population--are about to enter a time of deepening strife and travail. There is safe haven within yourself, no matter where you are located on the planetary surface, and we are close at hand, guiding and protecting and showering our love and grace over you. Whatever we may say here, whatever your eyes may see as you look around you, please remember that. If you feel yourself being overwhelmed by anything, just close your eyes for a moment, deepen your breathing, and come into your center. Feel the ground beneath your feet and remain rooted there until you are calm and serene in the midst of everything.

The first symptoms of the unraveling have begun to appear. The first wobbles of the axis are occurring and the center of things has begun to oscillate between one pole and another--both geophysically, politically, economically, and culturally. There is a profound change underway that affects every aspect of life in every part of the world, and all parts interact with and are connected to every other part, so the change will oscillate and ramify and be amplified with each oscillation. This is part of the "shaking" that we have talked about, and it will shake loose everything before it is over. Nothing of the old ways will pass through this time. Only essence will survive and move on. Only what is in keeping with YOUR essence will survive the shift and move on. Many of the acculturated patterns will not make it though the "gate," and you will truly become entirely new beings.

On the way to the homecoming, though, you will pass through scenes of increasing turmoil and chaos. Many will be very frightened, as the fabric of their life becomes torn and shattered through these massive shifts and changes in the foundation that underlies the entire system. However, this is what their Oversouls chose for them to experience in this life, and it is also a time that is rich with opportunity for discovering what is REALLY important, for discovering where one's priorities really lie. It will not be an easy time, but as so many of you have already discovered by going through your own travail, there is something gained in the end that is more precious than any material possession could possibly be. It is the inner peace and release that comes from surrender that is the "gold" within the cloud. It is the golden treasure of Spirit that will fill you now, and it is the time of the ingathering.

This will not be an easy thing for some of you to hear, because you care and you want to help and you still have fears about what will happen to the "others." Even so, this is as it was intended to be from the beginning, and is totally in keeping with the choices made by all of the Oversouls, individually and collectively. The ingathering is taking place now, and it represents the collecting of those who are going to Terra and removing them from the world scene for a time, until it is time to return and gather up those who have gone through the trials and been transformed by them.

This is about the harvest, and if we may take a few lines from your Bible, it is the time to separate the wheat from the tares, to send the workers into the fields and gather it into the barns. This is the time of the ingathering, and the withdrawal from the world for a time, until it is time to return. Let this sink in. Let this register. Let it fill you and let it deepen you and let it flow, without resistance, until you are at peace. Let all the resistance come up and move out of you. Let it all go. Let go and let God. Let go. Breathe. Breathe. Breathe.

There is no more to be done than to gather up those who are being lifted now. Then the full impact of the travail of the birth will play out on the planetary surface, and there will be much pain and suffering wherever there is resistance. This is a mighty, scouring force, and it will not be pleasant for many who go through it, but it  must occur. The lesson is one of surrender and of turning inward for support and succor. There are some lessons to be learned about the consequences of not  taking responsibility for one's life and truth. There are some lessons to be learned about abdicating responsibility for one's life and truth and placing it into the hands of others. There will be many hard lessons learned.

The ingathering will remove all but a few of you from the planetary surface. Some will remain because their work for the planet requires it, but most of you will be lifted up out of the frequency band you now occupy and be totally hidden away until it is time to return. You will not be available to those who are left behind, so that they may have their opportunity to learn what you have learned. It is all in divine order and all within the Divine Plan. You are already being lifted now, and that separating out from the mass consciousness can be felt by those of you who are sufficiently sensitive to the more subtle energies to perceive it.

It will appear that the light is withdrawn with you, but that will never be the case. It will appear that you have abandoned those who remain behind, but that will never be the case. You will simply be withdrawing for a time so that you can return to help when you are really needed. You need to change your costume for your new role, and you need a safe place in which to accomplish that. You are simply going away to prepare for the real help you can give, and you will be needed in great numbers near the end of things, as there will be many who need your help at that time. The kind of help you can give now is fairly limited, although your task of grounding the light and your meditation and prayers have been very effective in supporting the cleansing so far. But when it comes time to gather up those who have gone through the time of trials, it will not be enough to offer words of comfort or a book to read or a meditation circle. By then, things will be very different than they are now and a different kind of help will be needed. Wars and climate change and economic collapse and tyranny will all have taken their toll, and simple techniques and words will not be enough. You will literally walk through the killing fields and offer a hand to those who are ready to leave with you. You will need to be clothed in your armor of protection and you will need to be in full consciousness. You will be as living Christs (anointed ones) and carry the vibration and power that comes through such a state of being.

So now the lifting proceeds and the separating out proceeds and all will play out in increasingly serious fashion. You will find that, even though all is collapsing around you, you will have peace. You will have peace because you will have learned the lessons and will have learned how to surrender to the higher light and wisdom. You will have peace because you have learned how to face down your fears and accept your life's path with serenity. In that peace, you will find bliss and relief and you will accept the light and the lifting. So, now, let go of the feeling that there is anything to do now but accept the lifting. The things that will play out on the planetary surface MUST play out and there is nothing you need to resist or change. Let go and let God, and receive the peace of that.

Let peace be your refuge and armor against the pain of those around you. You cannot help them if you engage in their pain. You cannot be lifted if you are still clinging to the old forms and patterns. Let go and let God. Let God handle the details. You are not responsible for anyone but yourself. It is enough to receive the lifting, for by that means you will be able to really help when it is needed. We have been repeating ourselves throughout this Message because we really want you to "get it." Let go and let God. Do not resist what is happening around you. Receive peace.

All your life, and in all of your lives, you have been preparing for this time. It is here now. If you had a feeling that you had to DO something--set up a center, found a movement, teach a class, write a book--for most of you, that time is now over. For SOME of you--those who have elected to remain behind and who have work to do through the difficult times ahead--you will be guided and you will know what is yours to do. Each one of you reading this has a part to play in all of this. Some of you will remain and play your part that way for now; the rest will be lifted gradually until you are "gone from the scene," so that you can complete your "costume change" and prepare for your new role. We are with you all, and we will be coming closer to you now, so many of you who have not felt us will be able to feel us now.

You have been activated by the light codes in these Messages and it is easier now for you to receive us. Let go and let God. Let go of your attachments as to how it will be for you or for those around you. Let it all be the way it is intended to be and you will have joy in all your undertakings. There will come a time when it is all ended, and then you will have Terra to look forward to. Let go. Float upwards. Let go. We are with you, every step of the way.

            We leave you now in peace and honor and blessing. Amen, Adonoy Sabayoth.

ACROSS THE GREAT DIVIDE
September 1, 2001

We have asked to speak to you today about the next stage on the journey to Terra, and to address a central question that is no doubt at the back of your minds as you read through our communications with you. How, exactly, will you cross over the gulf between your present physical location and your future home on Terra? And what exactly are these ships that we talk about so often in so many ways?

To begin with, our ships are made of living light. They are conscious beings in their own right, and come into being without being "manufactured" via some technology or machinery in a factory. They are precipitated directly from the matrix of being that we call the Creator. They are sentient and we travel in them by forming a telepathic link between ourselves and the ship we are on, And together--as a group mind--we teleport ourselves to the agreed-upon location. We travel in what you refer to as hyperspace. We "blink off" from one location and "blink on" in the place we project ourselves into. The ship acts as a container for our bodies, which are still physical to us, even though they would not be visible to instruments or organs that are tuned to the light frequencies that you are familiar with as your present physical environment.

These ships all have names, just as we do. They have personalities, just as we do. They come into being in response to a collective need for their presence, just as all forms do on Terra and in the frequency band that we occupy. As we said in our last Message, no form comes into being on Terra except as it is in harmony with the whole. The whole would be incomplete without it, and that lack is filled by the manifestation of the ship or any other form that appears in that frequency band. All are in conscious communion with the Creator, with each other, and with the planet, through the vehicle of a group mind. Each being within the group mind has its own perspective and makes it possible for anyone else in the group to experience through that perspective if that is desired, but most of the time we are content to remain in our own "viewing chamber," as we are always filled and never lack for anything. The spontaneous desires that emerge in our minds source from the Creator and lead us in the direction that fulfills Divine Will at all times. Everything is always aligned with Divine Will and therefore we are always filled with a sense of unspeakable joy and fullness, as we just live the "rightness" of our being as a permanent way of doing things.

So, when we say we will come for you in our beautiful ships, it is a group effort. We and the ships are united in our purpose and being, and the radiance of that can be felt by those who can join their energies with ours and therefore become part of the group and join with us in our location. Think about this for a moment. You probably thought we were going to use some sort of beam or technology to lift you into the ships, but we don't do the lifting. YOU do! It is through the energy of joy in your heart--the welcome you feel in seeing us--that the doors fly open and you naturally gravitate (or should we say, "levitate"?) to the fulfillment of your heart's desire.

As we have said, love is the ordering force that acts upon light to create all form. It acts in opposition to entropy, which seeks to return things to a more elemental, uncreated state. Love is the life force behind everything and those who understand the nature of healing know that love is the most powerful healing force there is. It mends those places where entropy has torn the connections, where you are wounded in your bodies and in your psyches. A wound is only a tear in the fabric of life. Love is the force that mends the tear. We have asked you to face down your fears so that you can hold more love in your hearts. When it is time for the lifting, you will be ready and your own love and joy will be the force that reunites you with your spiritual family.

Now we would like to address another part of the "project"--namely how you get from Earth to Terra. As we have said, the planet will undergo a total cleansing of all life above the mineral kingdom, in order to lie fallow and regenerate the physical body of Earth itself. It will withdraw from a state where it can support life and reappear in its new body, somewhat like a glove being turned inside out to reveal a new "outside" that was formerly hidden from sight. This inversion will take place over a period of several years and no life forms will inhabit the former planet during that time. It is necessary to lift some life forms off of the planet before the completion of the final cataclysms and to house and provide for them while the planet completes her own transition from one form to another. This is where the ships come in.

Our ships are not just modes of transportation. They are like floating wombs and can support us and all life forms within themselves, like giant islands or capsules in the vastness of space. The very large motherships are spherical in shape, due to the properties that are inherent in a sphere. You will all be joining us on board our smaller, disc-shaped craft and then be transported to an enormous mothership that is nearly the size of your own planet, but not quite so large--on the order of 80% of your present planet's size. You will live with us on board the mothership until all preparations are complete and then you will be transported to Terra to set up your homes there. You will undergo a process while on board the mothership that will raise your consciousness to the point of full union with the Creator and it will remain that way for the rest of your existence in the higher densities. None of you who are going to Terra will ever have to return to a 3D existence, although you might at some time choose to do that for your own reasons, in keeping with the purpose of your existence as an individuated part of the consciousness of the whole.

Now the process has indeed begun in earnest. "Launch day" for Operation Terra (August 18, 2001) marked the departure and separating out of that group of beings and that envelope of energy that is headed toward Terra from the mass consciousness and body of Earth. So, in a way, you are already being "lifted" and you are already taking part in your homecoming and reunion with your soul family. The Earth-based portion of Operation Terra is a focal point, a gathering place for all those who are destined for Terra. Many of you have been in total isolation from others like yourselves, and that isolation is beginning to end as you discover that you are not the only one who knows what you know and feels as you feel. Operation Terra is a beacon with the tone of "home" to those who resonate with this information. Note that we do not say "agree with" or "believe in" this information. We use the word resonance on purpose, because it says exactly what we mean.

If you look at the word resonance, it comes from the root "resound," or literally to re-sound, or "sound again." It is a form of echo, sending back (re-sounding) the sound that triggered it in the first place. Sound is measured in frequency patterns and the interaction of sound and light combined make up the basis of all form. We have embedded light codes into the Operation Terra material, using the words as the carrier wave to bring them into your awareness. As you read the words, the light codes pass into your body and seek the matching codes in your cellular structure. It is very much like a tuning fork. If you are a tuning fork, tuned to the note "A," nothing will happen until a note "A" is struck or sounded in your vicinity. Then you will re-sound (resound) with that note, and it will ring inside you like a bell, an explosion of sound and joy as your embedded codes begin making their own sound in response.

It might be a quiet sound. It might be like a light-cannon going off, but it will feel like a "yes." "Yes, I know this." "Yes, this is familiar to me." "Yes, this is mine." That is how resonance works. It is not the product of analytical thought. It is a RESPONSE, a resonance, a re-sounding and answering echo from the core of your being, your own inner answer to the question, "Has it happened"? "Has it shown up yet?"

Yes, we have shown up now. And you belong with us, your soul family. You are drawn through the principle of resonance to recognize this note as yours. Now the "lifting" can be seen as a logical outgrowth of that--an extension of that resonance with our note, as it is carried through this information and the light codes we put into it. Now it is not so mysterious, not so much a "beam me up, Scotty" hardware-based technology. Call it the technology of love. Call it the technology of the life force. Can you feel your heart and being opening to this idea like the petals of a flower spreading to catch the rays of the sun? We are here with you at all times, and we welcome you into our midst. Our love for you showers you at all times, like the sun is always radiating light toward the Earth, and all you have to do is open yourself to receive it.

It will be easier for you if you do not engage with the pictures that are playing out on the perceptual screen of the rest of the world as things proceed. If you detach from all of that, you will find you experience more peace, more bliss, and more serene acceptance of yourselves and your journey. If you over-identify with what you look upon--the apparent suffering that is increasing, the madness playing out around you--it is easy for you to forget your home note--the joy and the peace and the love that you feel when you connect with us and our vibration. So, if you find yourself getting caught up in the storm, in the battles that are raging even now and that will only escalate as things proceed toward the climax, when you become aware of how uncomfortable you feel in that frequency band, just disengage. Come back to the Messages. Read them again. Go for a walk. Let yourself register that most of what you see around you is not yours. Let the beauty show itself to you, peeking out from behind the ugliness. It is there. Let yourself open to it. Disengage. Let it all go. Let go and let God handle the details.

You are tired at times. Let yourself rest in the peace and the joy and the love. It is there for you, if you can let yourself receive it. Let yourself receive it. Let go of everything that does not bring you peace and joy and love. Sleep deeply and gratefully when you rest, and let us scour you clean of the residue that remains. You may be tired afterward, but you will feel much lighter and freer because of the work we are doing with you while you sleep. Let go and let God. It is much easier that way.

We leave you now, in peace and honor and blessing. We shall speak to you again.
