Inspiration & Individual Impact: 18 January 88 Bashar: All right, I'll say: how are you all this day of your time, as you create time to exist? (Great, wonderful, perfect) Are you all alive? Q: (Yes!) B: Thank you! Allow us to begin by laying down a foundation for this interaction this day of your time. It can, if you wish, be entitled, "Inspiration and Individual Impact." Now: each and every one of you obviously is an individual. But now, as a society, each and every one of you is beginning, on some level, to realize that you are also all connected as one entity, as one idea, as one self-aware consciousness. A global awareness; if you wish, a world spirit. This world spirit, this one mind, this mass consciousness, is, in and of itself, an entity, a single idea. And it is aware of itself as a single entity, a single idea. At the same time, it is also aware of itself as a composite of all the individuals that exist upon your planet; a composite of all the individual mentalities, all the individual expressions of consciousness out of which it is constructed, shall we say? The idea therefore, in inspiration and individual impact, is to recognize, perhaps, a few of the following points of view: each and every one of you as an individual has the ability to affect, in many ways, the whole of your world. Even physiologically now you know you are beginning to attain a global consciousness. No longer are you isolated in terms of what you may call villages or cities, or even nations any more. You are now beginning to function -- although for now it may seem to he a bit sketchy, as you say -- as a united earth, in that sense. You are beginning to overlap your borders; you are beginning to cross over, to merge, to blend, and to find that it is almost impossible not to interact with all of the other nations upon your planet. In that sense, you are beginning -- even though it may seem for now to be under a lot of pressure -- you are beginning to blend together, to merge together into one entity. You are going through many growing pains perhaps in doing this as a civilization, but nonetheless you are still creating a blending; you are still exposed to other cultures, other notions, other points of view And some of this does inevitably rub off on each and every one of you -- making you far more of a unified, far more of a globally --thinking person than your ancestors used to be, in that sense. The idea, when you do this physiologically, also creates an effect in your non-physical consciousness, in your telepathic link. For each and every one of you is connected non-physically, telepathically; you are all immersed in a sea of electromagnetic energy that surrounds your planet. Being immersed in that sea of electromagnetic energy is what allows you all to be in touch with each other on unconscious and sub- consciousness levels. You can be in touch with each other on conscious levels, but your society's habits have not always allowed you to understand that this is possible. So for thousands of' years you have relegated that contact to the sub and unconscious levels of your mentality. But now, now! -- now that you have entered more global awareness physiologically, consciously, you are beginning to allow that sub and unconscious awareness of your interconnectedness to rise, to bubble up to the surface of your consciousness. And you are beginning to realize that you are all aspects of the same one expression of consciousness that is your entire planet. Day by day and bit by bit, many of you, now that you are accelerating in this direction, will begin -- and perhaps have already begun -- to see examples of this idea in the synchronicity of the events; in the coincidences of events; in the psychic attunement and sensitivity of your mentality that you may begin to find yourselves experiencing and expressing in your day-to-day activities. All of these ideas are natural symptoms of the type of transformation your world is going through. And it can allow you to further accelerate that idea, if you will allow for more inspiration in your lives and more recognition of the impact that each and every one of you, as an individual, has upon the whole. Since you are all connected, any movement, any idea, any change at all -- no matter how seemingly insignificant -- any of you make, must, by definition, affect the whole. You may think you are, shall we say, a very small gear, a very small lever. And in that sense, yes; there is a greater whole, out of numbers. But even if you turn your small gear even an infinitesimal amount, all the other gears to which it is connected must turn, even if they also only turn an infinitesimal amount. Each and every individual is absolutely linked with the whole, and is absolutely impossible to be separated from it. So recognize that the only thing that does not necessarily allow you to be aware of how much impact each and every one of you has, is because you have not necessarily been taught to focus on the understanding of your interconnectedness with everyone else. As soon as you begin to realize that you are, in fact, already intermeshed, intertwined, inseparable, in that sense, then you will begin to be able to see -- consciously see -- the true orchestration that all of you are together. You will truly begin to he able to understand that no motion, no movement -- no matter how seemingly slight -- is an accident. All is synchronicity; all is an orchestration. It is absolutely -- from our point of view -- in no way, shape or form an accident as to who has attended this interaction. It is absolutely no accident who you are sitting next to. It is no accident what they are wearing ... what colors, what they will say, what motions they will make. Now, there may be varying degrees of significance to each and every person about what every other person is doing. But nonetheless, you have agreed, on a telepathic level, to arrive in this interaction together; and to support everyone else in that interaction by adding your energy, so that they will get out of it what they need. And in them supporting you, to allow you to get out of it what you need. It is a co-creation; you are all masters, in that sense; you are all conductors; you are all creating the timing of the orchestration of this interaction between your civilization and our civilizations. No accidents whatsoever. Inspiration (and) individual impact is the product of the same understanding, and that understanding is basically as follows: Inspiration and impact are the creation, are the products of when you know that you are connected to the whole; when you know that you can draw from the whole, and act with that knowledge as the full individual that you are, knowing you are supported by the whole. If you could not be supported by the whole: if you were not supported by the whole, you as an individual would not exist in this particular conglomerate. Because there is no such thing as an extraneous or a pointless or an extra or a leftover creation that does not belong. Everything that exists fits where it is; everything that is where it is fits in that pattern, fits in that tapestry. There are no extras: everything is exactly the correct amount. Therefore: allow yourselves to know, as individuals, that each and every one of you has exactly the same degree of access to the total energy of your world; to the total energy of creation itself, because each and every one of you are equal aspects of the Infinite. Each and every being within creation - If we may put it this way -- is simply one of the ways that All That Is, the Infinite Creation, has of manifesting itself within the creation that it is. Another way of saying this is that each and every one of you, no matter how seemingly small and detached from the whole -- each and every one of you, as a part of the \whole, contains the ability to access the information of the total idea. You are all holographically structured. We will provide a brief analogy and an example to explain this notion of the holographic structure. Imagine for a moment -- in your visualization capability - that your world, your dimension that you call three-dimensional existence -- physiological reality -- is laid out flat like a grid, shall we say, stretching to the horizon as far as you can see. And on the surface of this plane is painted a gridwork of lines running in two directions, so that they are at right angles to each other, forming squares. Where these lines cross -- these intersection points where these lines cross -- let us say those points represent information, knowledge, that you may desire to have an access to. Now let's say you are standing somewhere on this plane, somewhere on this grid. It doesn't matter where, because the grid is infinite in all directions. And no matter where you are, it will appear to be infinite in all directions. Now let's say you have a desire to learn many things, to grow in many ways. And you take a look, for a moment, at the grid under your feet. And you recognize that each and every one of those squares, or each and every one of those access points, is a point of information that you may require. Now, looking at the grid this way you may say: "Well, this will take forever to understand anything." "I'll have to walk and walk and walk, and touch each and every one of those points before I will be able, in a sense, to access all of the information I believe I need to really live my life in the way I want to. All right. Fair enough, when you look at it from that particular perspective. However: there is another way to understand it. And this other analogy, the continuation of this analogy, actually defines the structure of existence itself. For this is the way it is built, shall we say. Looking at the grid once again: as you stand there now, take what you may call a large -- or a small; doesn't matter -- shiny, metallic reflective sphere, similar to what you would call a ball bearing in your culture. Take that ball bearing and place it anywhere on the grid. Now realize that all of the reflection of the grid -- no matter how far it stretches -- is reflective in the warped surface of that ball bearing. So in other words, all the information of every single point on the grid is in that ball bearing. You can access it by simply looking at any place around the ball bearing, without having to travel far and wide to receive that information. It is all right there in the same place at the same time -- perhaps seemingly distorted. But nonetheless, every single point is there. And you can access it from that point. Each and every one of you was created to be like that ball bearing. The total information of existence is wrapped up within you, interwoven within your consciousness, your individual consciousness. What you have done, and what many individuals in creation have done, is to flatten out that understanding, flatten out that consciousness, into an illusion of physiological time and space. Your third-dimensional physical reality is your projection. You have taken all the ideas that you are -- or at least a large portion of them -- and you have projected them into a seemingly dimensional reality which fills space and takes time to explore. But now: the purpose for having unfolded in that idea is now coming to a close. You have experienced many tens of thousands of years of experiencing reality in this segregated, remote, separated way. Now that you are arriving at the end of that cycle of having to perceive your reality in that manner, you are now beginning to fold up again; you are now beginning to re-pull all these ideas back into their central core, to re-intertwine with all the other aspects, to gather together all the understanding that you were created with to begin with. And now you are beginning to understand that you have access to things that seem to be so remote, because they are no longer seen as remote. They are right within you, and have been all the time. Right where you are, right /when/ you are. Everything! All the notions of time, all the notions of space, are all within you and created from you. They are simply your projection. Even your own physicists now, at least many of them -- not all of them, but many of them -- are beginning to understand that what you have for so long called physiological reality seemingly outside yourself, is actually nothing more than a projection of the strongest definition you have been taught to buy into to about what it is. In other words, physical reality is constructed of the definitions you give it. What you believe in most strongly, either as an individual or as a collective -- what you agree to buy into as a group determines how you experience your physiological reality. It is the product of your definitions. And in that sense, nothing more. This does not invalidate it. It is a very worthwhile experience. It is one of the ways you can experience yourself within creation, and you have done so to a great degree. The idea, in a sense, of exploring physiological reality to the extent that you have, makes you, shall we say, very well rounded, as far as many civilizations are concerned. Because not many civilizations that we have encountered have explored the idea of the physiological dimension to the extent that your civilization has. And so because of this, we have invented a little nickname for all of you. We call you the master of limitation. But this is not meant, in anyway, shape or form, derogatorily. It simply means that as you say, you have alot under your belt; you have alot of experience dealing with the idea of physiological focus, of negativity, of limitation, of challenge, in that sense. And of, in your terms, transforming those ideas into positive results. You have a great deal of experience doing this. You are one of the most highly focused civilizations we have ever come across. And that is why there is such a great deal of interest in your civilization now. Because you are taking all the focus that you have experienced for tens of thousands of years, all the focus that has been placed on negativity; and now you are deciding that you may just want to place it in a positive direction. We have used, to describe this transformation on your planet, what is called the rubber band analogy. If you take one of your rubber bands and draw it very far back, let us say into negativity, as you have in the past, you will recognize that the farther back you have drawn into negativity, when you finally decide to let it go, it will snap that much farther and that much faster into the positive side. And therefore we see your civilization as truly being on the brink, truly being on the threshold of monumental and instantaneous and inspirational change in a positive direction. Much of what you may now perceive to be the violence that is escalating on the surface of your planet, from our perspective, is simply your civilization getting the last vestiges of its, shall we say, tantrums out of its system before you make the change. You are now bubbling all this negativity up to the surface. No longer is it being covert; no longer are you pushing it down into your subconscious, and being secretive about this idea. You are bringing it all out into the open, so that you can display before everyone these ideas; and so that everyone can truly see what is going on and say to themselves: "Is this the type of world we really desire, or do we desire something else? Perhaps a world of harmony, a world of peace." "Now that we see that we have brought all this out into the open," you may be now saying to yourselves on the unconscious level, "now we can decide that we no longer prefer it that way. That now we prefer the idea of creating a world of joy, and allowing ourselves to expand in that manner, in an ecstatic way." And reclaiming your birthright of creatorhood, of ecstasy. Because you are made in the image of the Infinite. And what that means is that you are an infinite creator as well. It is simply that the type of reality you have experienced for tens of thousands of years has created an ability within you to forget that you are connected to the Infinite. But now that you have played the scenario out -- of all the limitation and the forgetfulness -- all the transformations and the explorations you are now doing on a spiritual level is the remembering, the re-awakening of yourselves to yourselves, remembering and rediscovering exactly who and what you always have been. Many of the things that you are now learning -- it isn't so much that you are learning something new; you are simply remembering more and more and more of what you already know, of who you already are. That's what your transformational age primarily is all about. When any civilization begins to explore in that particular direction, it sends out a particular radiation. And that radiation is picked up by many other civilizations, such as our own, that have already explored those particular levels of consciousness. And we answer that radiation as if it were an invitation to begin to function as mirrors to reflect back to you the experiences we have had, how we have explored the idea of the realms you are now beginning to explore. Not so that you will have the understanding that you must do it in exactly the same way we did. By no means. But simply to reflect back to you that we have explored those realms; and that we can share with you how our explorations have benefited us, have served us. You will do it in your own way, no matter what we share with you. We simply wish to be of service to you, to allow you to understand that you /can/ explore those realms, and you can explore them to your benefit. We desire this, because in serving you in this way, and allowing you to expand your awareness of who you are, it expands our awareness of who we are, and gives us new beings to interact with, new civilizations to explore all of Creation with, side by side, intertwined and intermixed. And that exploration together expands the notion of our place within Creation. Therefore: we will always -- as I will do now -- extend to you a firm understanding that we deeply appreciate your willingness to form and co- create with us these types of interaction. For bit by bit and day by day, through such interactions do you make it more possible and more feasible for our world to be able to interact with yours as an equal. For that is the only way we will interact with you - when you know you are equal, not only to us, but to each other.
