Good Afternoon Dear Children, Haeem greets you all. Today I wish to speak to you about an illness you call DEPRESSION.
So few recognize the illness within themselves and others. It is more common than cancer or aids that you all are so scared of. Everyone has suffered from this illness or are suffering from it. And you know someone or the other who suffers from this, and yet so few recognize it as an illness.
 This illness is wrongly understood as a case of low spirits, grief or sorrow. It is none of these. It is the pressing down of one's Divine Self. The physical self works on the 3rd Dimension,  that is the physical plane. The Divine Self works on the 4th dimension, which deals with feelings and emotions. When you refuse to acknowledge the 4th dimension and not work through the 4th dimension, it brings upon this illness of depression.

It first starts as self-indulgence. All those who suffer or ever suffered
from it are - SELFISH! No, my loved ones - I do not mean the very negative meaning of the world selfish. When 'ish' is added after a word - it means something like that
but not quite. It means the wholeness is not attained.
Now study the word  SELF ISH.When you are not quite your SELF - when you are not quite whole or complete - when the 4th dimension gets depressed by the 3rd dimension---you are not your SELF completely but self-ish. When the Divine Self is suppressed or repressed the outer manifestation is of the person thinking only of his outer self i.e. his physical self. That is why the outer manifests in such a way and persons suffering from depression are self-indulgent. They are called selfish because they have not attained the full circle of Divine Self.
What starts as self-indulgence soon gets out of control. Human nature likes to feel good about feeling bad. While you are low and sick you like the comfort of others' attention. You like all that attention. You like feeling not happy. Very soon this self-indulgence takes on an energy of its own and you as a physical person have no control and then depression manifests.
Do not think that only those in whom the symptoms of depression are evident are suffering from this illness. Even those who appear not to be sad all the times but who constantly party and are the life of the party may suffer from this illness within. They are in the throes of depression. The partying is their defense against acknowledging this illness.

How does one help self and others who are suffering from Depression? By PRAYING that this person will stop the self-indulgence and allow the 4th dimension to be expressed. But, why was the 4th dimension repressed in the first place? Because the emotions were too painful too handle and deal with due to human weakness. You can help by giving strength and courage to the person to look at their pain in the face. To see that the face of
pain is a gentle, loving face and not that of an ugly monster. You can pray that he will
find a person qualified to help and heal him or her by helping to deal with the painful emotions in a strong, practical way instead of indulging in self-pity and hiding behind tears and grief.
Psychotherapy does not only exist on the Earth Plane. It is also present on our plane. You will recall that the High Lord spoke to you about psycho-logy he said it was the study and discovering of one's true self. This is the only true healing. The discovering of  your real self. Please permit this healing to take place while you are on earth in this incarnation. Otherwise you will have to spend a very long time having to go through this psycho therapy after death. You can only reach your spiritual plane after you have discovered your self as it was in your last incarnation otherwise too much time will be spent in the hereafter on this discovery. Be complete in Yourself.
Mother Earth needs you. If you falter on earth and stop the process of discovering of yourself you will have to waste a long time when you are on our side. Do not cling to your pain , do not be self-ish, only be SELF. When you are self-indulgent you draw away all the energy of love and harmony and peace from all around you and you transform it into pain and then you release it into the universe. And those who are hurt most by this
release of your painful energy are children. If you have children of your own they suffer the most because they are completely engulfed by the negavtivity of the pain that you release. But, you owe responsibility to all children, even if you do not have your own.The children of the present and the future, who are yet to come into your world, are all open to this energy and when you release this pain everywhere around you, the first persons to pick it up and make it their own - are children. You must have responsibility to the new world children.
How do you recognize depression?Ask yourself - AM I HAPPY IN MY UNHAPPINESS? But for this you need to have the courage to answer honestly- YES!
If you cannot do this on your own- sit with a friend, or loved one, or counselor and
talk of what you feel, find out if you are depressed. There is love all around you. But you do not see it. When you see the love we have to give , you ask - Is this love? This love does not fulfill, this need of mine, this want of mine, does not satisfy this craving of mine. You do not understand our love.
Does your love satisfy you? Your love is only 3rd dimensional and our love is of the 7th dimension. Come up to our love. Then there is no SELF to discover - there is only the beauty of ONE.
We love you all my beloved children. Good evening.
