*Schizophrenia*


Q:  I have a question relative to a mental disorder that my son is affected
with...

B:  All right.

Q:  ...called, schizophrenia.

B:  Ah!

Q:  If you have any insight into what may be the origin and possibly the
potential cures that may be forthcoming in the ongoing years, I would
appreciate your insights into that.

B:  Oh, thank you. I have no insights upon it... however/, I/ do. Therefore,
while "he" is taking a break, /I/ will be glad to share our perspective on
this idea.

Fundamentally, what you typically call schizophrenia will usually be
indicative of a consciousness aware that it is many different personas co-
existing at the same time, overlapping in many different lifetimes and
dimensions of experience.

For whatever the reasons are that are germane to the particular individual,
they have chosen to experience more than one of them, seemingly within the
/same/ time frame structure. Or they have not been given the opportunity to
understand how to communicate those two aspects of themselves in a blended
way; because you exist in a society that only recognizes one persona at a
time, and not two existing in that sense.

Q:  Mhmm.

B:  It is not truly a disease, fundamentally. The fact that that particular
manifestation exists in a very limited type of society makes it
"diseasing," because there is no way for that individual to learn that they
can communicate their experience to the society; because they know it is
not acceptable. That's what locks them into the self-perpetuating cycle
that allows them no way to truly communicate that their experiences are
quite valid and quite real; and that that persona, the different personas,
are real distinct personas that do have their own lives, their own
validity.

It is simply that they are manifested through what you typically call one
expression of embodiment. It is, to some degree - this is extremely
colloquial and not necessarily precise, but it will serve as an analogy -
to some degree, it can be said it is like having twins in one body. You
follow me? Not only do they have free communication with them, but they
understand that, since every being is every other being, they have free
communication /as/ them. All consciousness is the same one consciousness, and
can express itself in any degree, as any persona.

This individual is integrated in a different way than the majority of your
society. They are integrated in a way that allows them - or created in them
the desire - for full expression of both of the fragments of their total
being that they perceive themselves to be - that are overlapping at this
time. But your society has not had a niche for that particular type of
expression. And so they become their own society, locked into their own
world. You follow me?

Q:  Yes, very much so.

B:  When your society begins to understand that every individual is the
expression of every other individual that has ever lived or will ever live
and is living now, on every different dimensional level, then they will be
able to facilitate these individuals, by manifesting a type or style of
communication that validates the experience, instead of invalidating the
experience of that individual.

All they require, first and foremost, is unconditional love and trust and
validation that their experiences are just as real as anyone else's chosen
form of expressiveness; because many of those individuals - if they are
allowed lines of communication into your society - can express themselves
in the terms of channeling.

In a sense you could say that the physical channel before you is
schizophrenic, in the sense that he exhibits more than their allotted
personality quotient from time to time. It is simply that this individual
has understood the trust that this is something that can be utilized in
your society, and never believed your society when it said it had no reason
or place for that type of expression. Because we are all fragments of each
other's consciousness.

I am my own being and I have my own validity; the channel is his own being
and has his own validity. But we are, at one and the same time, the same
being, in many ways, on different levels, it is simply how it is chosen to
be expressed. Individuals that avoid the schizophrenic label, perhaps,
simply go about it more cleverly than others. You follow me?

Q:  Yes, I do. A question in regards to that: then the best way of coping
with that would be to surrender to it. Would this be true?

B:  In a sense, but this does not mean that you cannot actively investigate
and involve what the personality is all about. Dialogue with it; find out
what all the likes, dislikes, of the different personalities are, where
they feel at home. Find out where each personality feels at home. Allow
them all to be validated.

One of the fundamental reasons that this is a difficulty in your society is
because your society has the strongest habitual penchant for determining
that something /must/ either be this or that, when in fact everything is this
/and/ that. So validate each of those expressions, each of those experiences
on their home ground. Find out who they are and where they are comfortable.
And let them know that you know they can co-exist. They do not have to
fight for domination of the one gateway body that they have to express
themselves in.

Whether or not this will be something that may occur soon in your society,
we do not know, but there are societies that do express themselves in the
following way I am about to describe; and this is something that may
actually be possible in your society. And it has happened from time to
time, briefly.

Individuals expressing more than one persona, as you recognize it in that
way may actually be able to create a physical bi-location, a duplicate
body, so that both personas can co-exist. And then you would simply see
them as physical twins, and then your society would say: "That's okay."

Because there is a society that actually creates themselves in that way:
any persona they imagine themselves wishing to become, they actually
project another physical body to house that persona. When they decide
whether or not that's truly the direction they wish to go in, then either:
if they decide no, then that extra body vanishes, and they pull the
personality back in; or if they decide yes, then the original body
vanishes, and they continue in the new one, as the new persona. You follow
me?

Q:  Yes, I do. Then the doing with that ... the key word would probably be
acceptance.

B:  Oh, yes, on every level.

B:  But also imagination, curiosity, exploration, true dialoguing, bring
these personas out. For understand: true unity of any being is the result
of the complete equalization and validation of all of its personality
aspects. Then the being can function in a unified way - when all of its
aspects are equally validated and accepted.

Q:  Regardless of the negativity that's hidden in some of those personas.

B:  When you allow them all to be validated, they will not need to express
themselves in negative ways, because they will know they are worthy of
love, and then they can start loving themselves; and that will form an
integration with the being, and you may no longer see a manifestation of
either persona; you may see a third new integrated persona.

Q:  So our traditional way of dealing with that particular dysfunction is
absolutely, probably, incorrect.

B:  It is simply indicative of many of the limitations you already believe
in as a society. But let us simply say it is not conducive to the birthing
of the third personality that could result from the blending of the other
fragment personas.

When they are each allowed to know they can love themselves for who they
are, they will not need to express themselves in negative ways. They will
learn to live in harmony with themselves. That will allow the being to
reintegrate and blend. But it will not be that it will become one or
another of the personas already there. It will become a totally new
persona.

Q:  It's extremely helpful; I thank you very much.

B:  We thank you. And also remember: you are very capable of dialoguing
with this individual's consciousness in your dream reality. Simply make the
conscious decision that you will do so when you go to sleep, and you will
also begin to see results from that; because on that level, you are both
wholly in communication /as/ each other. All right?

Q:  Again, I thank you.

B:  Exciting dreams!

Q:  Thank you very much.

B:  At this timing...
