*In Your Own Unique Way* Q: Sometimes I get very strong images of, uh, how can I say, um, of people's thoughts or... B: Yes. Q: ... things, and I don't get visuals at all. Sometimes I meditate in large groups and I don't get visuals at all. Sometimes I do. Is there any way that I can use some exercises that would help me to be more visual? B: But why do you think that not having visuals is a deficiency? Q: I just enjoy having them, I... B: So? Q: I'm artistic and I like to see them. B: All right. Do you like to feel? Q: Yeah. I feel all the time. I mean that, I get emotions all the time, but I don't always get the visuals with it and I would like... B: But you do not always need them. Q: No. But I get a... oh, I want them. B: Then create them. (AUD: laughs) Q: Then we're back to my question. Are there any exercises I can do that can create them more often? I find that I often don't have them when I would like to. For, for... B: You don't? Q: No. B: You don't have visuals when you would like them? Q: Right. For example, should I give you an example? B: All right. (AUD: laughs). Q: I was recently, um... B: May I interrupt you for a moment? Q: Certainly. B: Chair. Q: I get those visuals. B: So, what is the difference? Q: Well, I'll tell you. B: All right. (AUD: laughs). Q: I was in Sedona... B: Yes. Q: ... recently... B: Yes. Q: ... in an, uh, archeological... a cave dwelling. B: Yes. Q: And I was inside a shaman's room where he did some... I didn't know what he had done there, but I was in there alone and I was feeling these very strong emotions and I was trying to get pictures and, or I was wondering why I wasn't getting pictures, and I wasn't. I just felt the emotions and I did not know how to connect them with anything. B: It is very simple! You were not creating any pictures. Being in that type of energy is being in a vortex -- the center of creation, the center of all probable universes, where you need to take action to create the realities you want to experience. You simply were open, waiting to receive, but not recognizing that in that particular type of energy you don't receive messages you don't send. Q: Okay. Well, I don't understand that, because what the archeologist said was that a number of different psychics have been in there at different times... B: Yes. Q: ... and they had all experienced, told him about the same picture. B: Yes. So? Q: I don't know that I... well anyway, what it was, was something to do with the shaman who was in there and what he did to some women who were there at the time. B: Yes. So? Q: And why did I just get the emotions? I felt, I, I got some very strong emotions but I didn't get pictures. I don't... what did they do differently than I did? B: They may have within their belief structure an automatic mechanism that allows them, whether they know it or not, to project and then trust that whatever pictures they project are the pictures they need to receive. In other words, perhaps, you are trying too hard in the sense of... or you are not believing that the pictures you would create in your imagination consciously would be as valid as something you don't think you had anything to do with. (AUD: laughs). You follow me? Q: I do, except that sometimes I get very vivid pictures or... B: Yes. Q: You know, sometimes I just close my... B: Well, then you are not trying so hard. Q: I just... I do the same thing. I close my eyes and just let it come and it comes. I'll ask a question. B: Yes. Q: Maybe I didn't ask a question. Maybe that's what I didn't do. B: The idea simply is, from our point of view, that if you find yourself in a situation where you get pictures that is what you need. If you don't get them, that is what you need. Again, it may simply be that your automatic expectation is so quick that, if you don't get them exactly when, and as fast, and in the way you think you should, then you cut off the flow that might come in the very next second. Because you are too busy looking for them to see them when they come. Relax you expectations and then, paradoxically, you might offer yourself more opportunity to receive them. Q: Okay. B: But recognize that if they're not there, they don't need to be there. Why make the assumption that something is wrong if they're not there? Q: It's not wrong, but when... B: But you are assuming that you are somehow deficient by comparison. Q: I suppose, yes. B: Then that is, in your terminology, translated as... Q: Wrong. B: Wrong. Q: Yeah, Yeah. I'm missing some of the fun. (Laughs) B: You aren't. Q: I'm not? B: You are having fun in your own way. Q: Well, that's true. B: In the way you will add to the overall experience, in your unique way. Now, do not assume that every single one of those individuals, who got pictures then, always gets pictures. Q: Mhmm. B: Perhaps for you, the feelings were more important, because maybe, the way you translate feeling is "more appropriate" to the overall scenario than the way they would have translated feelings. You follow me? In other words, whatever you experience, it is a reflection of what you can bring to the event in your own unique way. So, if you don't get something, assume you don't need it to share in the event. Translate it in whatever way you do get it. That is how you get it. Q: Okay. B: So lighten up on yourself. (AUD: laughs) Q: All right. Thanks. B: Thank you. You!
