*Inspiration* Q: I have a question about music. B: Yes. Q: I've always wanted to have a fantastic memory, and it's never been there. And I wonder... B: Oh, that is all right. Many individuals on your planet now, because this is the transformational age, will begin to recognize that they no longer need the way you typically use your memory. For the idea is that as soon as you are living completely in the moment, you will know what you need to know when you need to know it -- according to whatever idea you are truly fully being at that moment. Whether you have ever known it before or not. So memory: begin to treat it as a thing of the present, not a thing of the past. Q: And in terms of retention? B: Again: you will know what you need to know when you need to know it. And when you don't need to know it, you won't. You follow me? Q: Yes. B: That is living in the moment. Look at the idea of an animal, if you will, as an analogy for a moment. Let us say you have -- let us use the fourth-density symbol -- the cat. For you know it exists in more than one level. It knows the spiritual side as experientially as it knows the physical side; it exists in both worlds -- what you call the ethereal and the physical simultaneously -- and knows it. It crosses one of your streets, and along comes one of your automobiles. The cat avoids it; runs across; goes under a fence, or over a fence; and surveys the yard beyond the fence. And jumps into the yard. Now: for the cat, the avoidance of the idea of the automobile is at that moment the total absorption it is in. As soon as it is approaching the fence, the total absorption is on the fence, on climbing the fence. As soon as it sees the yard, the total absorption is in the yard. The idea is completely lived in the moment. There is no need for the retention of the aspect of the interchange with the automobile, because that does not serve the cat in looking at the yard. When it looks at the yard, that's all it is doing -- doing everything it needs to do to look at the yard. If there is an aspect of the interchange it had with the automobile that will serve it in allowing it to look at the yard more completely, then that aspect will be there in its knowledge. But it will not be memory in the same way you think of as memory; it will be absolute understanding, knowing in that moment what the animal needs to know to be what it is, and what it needs to do at that moment. That is what many of you are learning also to do. So an individual who is completely, at any given moment, being the idea of the musical piece that they desire to play, will play it. They will know it, note by note, exactly when they need to know that note, and if they allow themselves to /channel/ that trust and knowledge -- then magically, automatically, it will be an in-spired performance. You understand? Q: Yes. B: Thank you very much for your inspiration. Q: Thank you. B: Breath: inspire = breathe within. Inspiration. Thank you.
