El Morya:

Om!  You know me as El Morya. We will answer two questions before we depart.

 

 When someone near to us dies, prayers are conducted for the departed souls. What happens in a case of an accident where the body has not been found? There is a possibility of that person being still alive and coming back. How do we pray for this departed soul? What is to be done in this case?

You pray for the soul. Whether departed is only a matter of perspective, prayers for the dead are prayed to bring the soul closer to the light. To you, in physical mortality, it seems important to ‘see’ the dead body. Only then do you pray for the soul. Soul resides not within the body. To pray for the soul, you do not need to be assured of death. Because you are assured of life. The boy may return or not return. Prayers for the soul are never chanted in vain. Death is an illusion in which you all believe and which, therefore, causes you so much pain. Death solves no problems, death causes no problems. What the soul has undertaken to experience is experienced irrespective of this vesture. In an accident, when the body is never found, you either hope that he will walk back or you despair that he has left. There is no cause for hope; there is no cause for despair. Hope and despair come to the mind when the mind cannot look beyond the physical vesture. Does the soul of another need your prayers only when the physical has died?  Does the alchemist look upon the sheet of lead and wait in vain, till it disappears before he tries to change it to gold? You are all alchemists. And yet you know not the art of alchemy. An alchemist does not wait for a miracle to take place so that lead is turned to gold. He knows the gold lies within the lead. And you, my dear alchemists, you look only at the dull, ugly lead. And you forget that the gold is already within.

Can crystals really help in raising the consciousness of human beings?

When your whole earth is a crystal, how can they not help you? Do you think that gems and minerals are just here by some chance? The formation of each atom that makes up the crystals is so unique, that whatever its physical structure might appear to be, if you physically view the atomic structure, each atom is a pure pyramid. Crystals have the power to do whatever you ask them to. You can use crystals as an excellent catalyst in your experiments with alchemy. When lead has to be turned to gold, at first the lead must be purified of all that is impure within it. And the crystal will ‘help’ you to do that. Once the lead is purified, it must then be infused with rays of universal light that will help the metal to change to the purity of gold. Crystals will help you do that too. But, crystals are useless on their own. They are here to ‘help’; they are not here to be the excuse for you to do nothing. How will you know which physical structure is right for you at this time? Place the crystal in the palm of your left hand. Do not close the palm. Leave it open. And then go within for a few moments to see how your heart and soul respond to that shape, to that gem, to that mineral. You can have with you a wide array of these invaluable friends and every morning ask your friend to choose you. And the one you’re drawn to, place it in the palm of your left hand and be conscious to its message. But while choosing your friend, you must be very clear and your intention must be clearly made known, what purpose the crystal is needed for. The crystal will help in two ways----it purifies what is impure, it takes you closer to divine consciousness.

El Morya blesses you all.

Thank you for being with us, Master.

Jade Fire:

Good evening children.

Good evening Sir.

What a quiet, well disciplined class of children this is. Have we scared you off, so much that you do not even smile?  We like to joke with you, play with you, talk with you, share with you. Make us your friends. Fear us not. What subject would you like us to discuss today?

  
How can we ward off negative thoughts?  How do we -----it’s so difficult to think positive, when everything is going wrong?

 
Whose thoughts are they? Dear little ones, you do remind us of a class of little children not wanting to take responsibility. Have you seen two children fight? What do they say, little one? He pushed me. But, she hit me first. And does this ever end?  When you ask me this, you are that little child again. How do you ward off negative thoughts?  For that, it is important to remember what we repeatedly say about ‘thoughts’.  Dear ones, you cannot see your thoughts and do not ever know the repercussions of thoughts. That is why you ask us such questions. Let us understand a thought. A ‘thought’ is the communication of the Mind that remains unverbalised, but which releases on creation, its own energy.  It is carried on waves that are finer and faster in vibration than the waves that carry spoken words. Due to this, the energy that a thought releases is not only greater, but spreads wider, taking even less time than the energy of a word. When we communicate through our instruments, like this child, and if the communication is meant not for another to hear, it is done through thought. And the reason why ‘instruments’ doubt themselves, doubt the messages that they get from us, is because no sooner have they voiced their question that our message is there. This speed of communication is what makes them doubt their own abilities as our instruments. But they must understand that our message come much faster when it travels on thought-waves, and slower when it needs to be carried on the slower waves of word. And so, all thought, negative or positive, is nothing else but a creation of an energy. You must always recall that you play the roles of co-creators. Every moment of every day, you along with the Divine Creator, create the Universe anew.  ‘You’ do this by thought, by word, by action. As soon as a thought is created in the mind, you have finished your role as Creator. And there is nothing you can do to stop the thought wave of going into the universe.  So you must first understand what is thought.
And now we will see what a thought can do.  Simple laws of physics teach us all that energy draws to itself like energy.  Energy will repel what is not like itself. Those of you who are here ------of this, some will come again and again, and others will not.  That is because the like energy that is emitted in this gathering, will bring toward itself those of similar energy. And will, as certainly, keep away those of dissimilar energy. So powerful is thought. A negative thought -----and let us now discuss what is ‘negative’ and what is ‘positive’. ‘Negative’ is only a term to describe the energy.  It is not a negative electrical discharge. It is a term that is used to describe those thoughts, those words, those actions that take you further away from your soul’s mission; that leaves you feeling alone, that bring with them feelings of anger, anxiety, grief -----all of which have dark, dense coloration and slow dense vibration. ‘Positive’ is a term to describe those actions, words and thoughts that take you closer to soul mission; that make you forget this outer, empty shell and enable ‘merging’ of your vital spark with the vitals sparks of all around you, and eventually, merging with the highest spark that there can be. These have light, shining coloration and fine, fast vibration. They occupy different levels of space. You have all seen smog. And you have smelt its pollutants. You have inhaled its grime. And you have seen that it cannot rise, because the weight of the dirt pulls it down. Negative vibrations that are dense and dark cannot reach the levels of fine vibrations and fine vibrations of upper levels will be repelled by the muddiness of these lower vibrations and will not merge. When you put out a negative thought, ‘you’ as co-creator, ‘you’ have created a vibration that is dense and dark and thick. That energy that you have created will attract to itself the energy from the lower vibratory areas.  And you will be surrounded, filled by this smog that you will inhale, and which you must inhale because it is of your own creation. When you put out a positive thought, you’ve automatically transcended, risen above the smog to the finer vibratory levels and there you attract all these wonderful vibrations that once again fill you, but leaving you feeling light and giddy headed with exhilaration. How few of you have felt this giddy exhilaration and how many of you are living everyday in the smog?  And how much in vain you try to come out of the smog, because you ask, “How can I ward off a negative thought?” You are the creator----what you create, is your responsibility and it is under your control. When you give up the responsibility and the control to another, even if that ‘another’ is an ascended master, when you give up your responsibility and control, you are not a ‘creator’. You are merely a puppet. And a puppet can never hope to rise to finer vibrations.  How do you stop negative thoughts?  Our answer is simple and may seem to you very idealistic and unattainable, and the word that you’re all so fond of –impossible. But our answer is----stop creating them.  If she holds the strings of the puppet in her hands, the puppet can put out its hands and forcibly take back the strings and then begin a process that is long and hard and difficult, certainly; but impossible---no. That process is a process of deliberate conscious creation. You are all creators. But you are asleep.  You do not even know that you create----how can you then control what you create?  But now, you do not have excuse. Now if you do not desire to awaken, it is because of a deliberate choice to let another or several anothers, control you. But if you desire to awaken, from this moment forth, your every thought is a deliberate, conscious freewill act of creation of positive energy.  And how will you do this in times of grief?  And how will you do this when the nights seem dark?  And how will you do this when the anger is all within and without? And how will you do this when you look around and see only a sea of loneliness?  It is then that your process starts.  If we asked each one of you right now, to create a positive thought, without any hesitation, without any difficulty you would be able to do so. And you would think, ‘I have passed the test.’ But you were not even tested. It is when the night is dark that you have to strive the hardest to reach the light. It is when there is anger that you have to make a conscious choice away from anger. It is when all within you is building up only negativity, because that is what you have been used to, it is THEN that there must be a deliberate shift. So dear one, we cannot tell you how you can fight these thoughts because they are yours. And fight them you must in the face of all negativity. We have only tried to explain to you, your process of creation.  
In this gathering here, we cannot see more than two who live in the upper regions of finer vibrations. And then you wonder why the world has become so violent, why the earth mother is releasing so much negativity? It is what you are creating and like you, hundreds and millions all over the world everyday, every moment, are creating only dense dark vibrations. And that is all you will get in return. So easy it is to point the finger at the murderer, because his negativity is physically manifest, but what if I said to you dear ones, that your thought negativity is as harmful as the murderer’s?  We have explained to you how your thoughts draw energy to itself of a similar nature. But we must not fail in our duty to tell you how you harm another by the thought that you put out. If in a moment of anger, you put out a deep dark thought of revenge, which you may never act upon, which you may never even verbalise. This thought wave of revenge and anger is created and is present in these realms. If he, in a weak moment of anger, has opened himself up to like energy, her thought of revenge will reach his vibrations; will be accepted by his vibrations, will add strength to his own vibrations of anger and will cause him to harm another physically. Is he the only one responsible for this action? When you pass judgement, upon another’s actions and words, ask yourself, “have I ever put out this thought wave?” and if you have, can you be so sure that you are not responsible for its eventual physical manifestation in another?   If in a deep dark moment of grief, you look upon death as a welcome exit, but you do not act upon it, you may not even verbalise it. But the charcoal grey slime that you have created can never be destroyed. And how many will this slime harm?  You are never going to know. Being a creator is not an easy task. It needs responsibility at every moment in time. Because dear ones, as certainly as you are responsible for yourself, your words, your actions, your thoughts-----you are responsible for how they have influenced another.  We ask you all to close your eyes and experience what we have said.  We are going to put out thoughts. Some dark and some light.  Go within and see the colour of the thoughts that we have put out for each and be honest when we ask you for your answers. Open yourselves up to our waves. (A short pause) Yes. For those who wish to answer, we’re ready to hear. What is the colour of the thoughts we sent to you?

(Some answered green, pink, golden and so on.)

Shut your eyes again, and this time see the difference if you feel any.  

(This time some said grey, black, muddy brown and so on.)

Do you see how the colours have changed? When you breathed the muddy brown, the red, was your breath clear or did you struggle to breathe? Did it weigh you down?

 

 Sir, I had a peculiar feeling of something shimmering behind the muddiness.

 Good, my son. Because we cannot create the muddiness, without there being the shimmer of the light to take it away at once.

I felt an extreme reluctance to see the red.

Because my child, there is an extreme reluctance in you to acknowledge your anger. Child, rage eats you from within. When anger is used in strength, it can draw you to a level of vibration you would not have otherwise known. Ponder very deep and closely over our words, so that you truly understand what we wish to impart to you.

Sir, may I ask a question regarding this?  I feel that lately you have been in fact asking me to ‘feel’ the anger, when every time you have said that anger is negative. So, why do you ask me to get angry, then?

 Child, your depression is one that is combined with grief and rage. You can feel the rage within, but you have adapted to dealing with this rage by adopting weakness. Your weakness has made you smaller and smaller, almost non-existent. If you wish to rise to your true stature again, you will have to acknowledge the rage. We are not asking you to get enraged; we are not asking you to resort to violent fits of anger. We are asking you to ‘acknowledge’ the anger, and study it closely. When you study your anger, you will realize my child that your anger is due to the fact that your soul rebels against ‘non-existence’. Draw strength from that anger, and manifest it not as violence, and manifest it not as grief, manifest it not as depression ------manifest it as a conscious decision of strength and growth. Have you understood?

 
Sir, would this be common for most depressions?

 Some, not all.

Why is so much importance given to ‘light’?  Because light is one end of the spectrum, and darkness the other.

There is no darkness. How can we not give importance to the light, when that is all there is? ‘Darkness’ is an illusion. There is no darkness. You are a being of light. How can we not acknowledge you?  The Universe is a creation of ‘light’----how can we not acknowledge it? There is no darkness. There is a conscious deliberate desire, not to see the ‘light’. That is a deliberate desire. All those amongst you that are caught in the grip of a depression, all those amongst you who cannot control violent fits of anger either in word or deed and who resort to weak words of  “it is impossible for me; it cannot be done”; this your deliberate, conscious free-will choice NOT to see the light!  Has the light disappeared?  How can it disappear?  How can ‘energy’ ever be destroyed?  Can you see it always? Yes.   Do you desire to see it always-----that has to be your answer to your question. There is no spectrum and there is no end.

Why are we born?  What is the purpose of this life on Earth?

Good. The purpose of this life, dear one, is in order to ascend to a higher level of consciousness. Let me give you an example that you all will be very familiar with. Your time when you were in school----you went from year to year to year to tougher year.  That is why you are born. We do not have the time to take up this subject. Because it is a vast subject, needing a complete meeting to be answered in all clarity. If you desire it, and if it is asked again, we can do so.  But for the present, you must be satisfied with such brevity. We ask you all to pray for peace. There is much bloodshed and much more blood will be shed. Can we help?  Very marginally. Why?  Because what you’re physically seeing today is only a manifestation of all your thoughts that have gathered together. Can ‘you’ help?  Yes. If each one gathered in this room can make a vow to always speak and do and think only positively. You will then gather finer vibrations, which will then attract even finer vibrations, and thereby dispel the bloodshed. You are here, away from the bloodshed, but dear ones, you are as responsible for the bloodshed as those that are there.

 
Be Light!
