Channeling through Ellaneeah:
Good Evening. We know you want a continuation of the Rays, not today. Today we will ask our visitors, to give us a word each, for which you require an explanation. Through your words, this beautiful group will also learn valuable insights.
To Zafar: Son, you will co-ordinate.
From the newcomers if there is anyone who would like to…..
Visitor: Experience
Your greatest teacher, your best friend, your most ruthless enemy. You cannot expect any mercy from experience. You can only expect truth. And if you do not have the courage, to look at this friend, sharply in its face, you will then face your most ruthless enemy. For experience has a sceptre, which it uses, without any compassion, without any understanding. All it requires from you is movement, growth, and change. That is experience. A tool for change.
Why do you experience anything that you do? Your good experiences, the ones that bring a glow to your face, a smile on your lips, and warmth in your heart, are there to show you, that when you access that divine spark that is within you, it is, this state of joy that you will be in, constantly. It asks you to change, from that which is unreal, to that which is real. Those experiences that are severe, harsh, have an uncanny and uncomfortable way of repeating themselves. They keep coming again, and again, and again, and like the winter, they come with greater and greater severity. Why? Because like the winter it is here to teach you, the importance of summer, the gentleness of the rain, the beauty and colours of autumn, and it teaches you, the strength and energy required, to combat the cold, the sleet and the ice. It teaches you how to save for a winter’s day. What will you save? Money? No, it teaches you to save your own energy, your own creativity. For that day, in the winter, when all around you, it will be cold and lonely, when everything seems dark and desolate, that warmth of the creativity of the sun that you are, will rise on that winter’s day. But if you let that winter’s day go by, without having changed with this experience, the next winter’s day will be even colder. And the storehouse that you have within, even emptier. It is up to you whether you make experience your friend, or your enemy.
Do not be scared of change little one. Change scares you. You are comfortable with what you know. Even if change is for your own betterment, you still fear it. Do not fear it so much. Change is always for the better. There can be no change that can be harmful for you. It can only appear so, if you resist that change.
Visitor: Fear
That’s a big one for you. But do you know it is your greatest ally? You have never acknowledged, with gratitude, your fear. We can see, the confusion, in the minds of our dear ones. Here we always been telling you to drop fear, and we are asking her to be grateful. Acknowledge your fear. Often, what you have feared, has been a spiritual impulse that you have heard, understood, at a deep sub-conscious level, but your mind has translated it into fear, because, like this beautiful one, you too, do not welcome change. For you there is no greater fear than change and that is why we are asking you to acknowledge it, with gratitude.
Now, every time fear arises in you, wait, be grateful for this mind generated fear. Know that it has come in order to tell you, that there is a change coming on. Open yourself up, to this change. Talk with your friends, or with those you trust, about the change. Why is this change feared, what are you anticipating? You often anticipate far more than whatever happens. But, now we will talk of fear in general.
Why do you all fear? What do you all fear? What you all fear is not survival, not death. Death is easy. Non survival is what you fear is lack of acknowledgement, of who you are. You fear that people will not see you, hear you, be with you, love you, and need you. That is what you fear. In holding onto what is outside. You are desperately seeking to hold onto what is inside. But you do not know what is inside. And therefore, the outside seems so confusing, so strange, so unknown, and so fearful.
Do you understand now why you fear? In order to overcome any fear, you have to understand, what is within. It is with greater and greater knowledge of what is within, that you will let go, of all the clutches of what you hold onto of what is outside. When you voluntarily let them go, there is nothing more to fear, because there is nothing to loose. All that there is, is within. How can it ever be lost to you? You do not ever, for a moment more then, need to wonder why, why am I always loosing? Why must I always be ignored? And what you fear the most is being acknowledged. If you experience, the moment of complete acknowledgement of another, will you then be able to survive without any acknowledgement? So you run away from acknowledgement.
So you fear non-survival, but you also fear acknowledgement. And there is only one common answer for both. Knowing what is within. Who is this person that looks back at you every morning in the mirror? Who is this person? The day you answer that you will be fearless.
Visitor: Prayer.
Would you like to answer? (To Divyaa) Let us pause here. Do I have the permission for that? Do we have the permission to use you as an example of fear? She was asked, to answer on prayers. She knows the answer, has no need to even channel it, but did you see the fear that stopped her, she doesn’t wish to speak. Why? Not because she fears she doesn’t know, but because she fears she does. What if, the entire room was to acknowledge the greatness of who she is? How will she then survive knowing how small she can become? That is her fear. Her fear is not of failure. Her fear is of success.
No, we will not force you. Do not worry.
Prayers. Talking to the one in the mirror. Can you do that? Have you ever had a conversation with the one in the mirror? Then you have never prayed. Look at the one in the mirror, and talk. Tell this one in the mirror, your fears, your doubts, your misgivings, your hopes, your desires, and your ambitions. And then tell the one in the mirror, what you wish will happen and that will be a prayer that will be answered. Because there is no one else whoever hears your prayer or answers it, except the one in the mirror. We have had many, many instances in the past, when we have said there is no God. And there have been many indignant reactions. No God? And you claim to be a Master. There is no God. The only God is the one in the mirror. If you look for a God, outside of that mirror, you will be so disappointed. There are friends outside that mirror. Friends who are friends of the God in the mirror. Next time you pray, do not look at the picture of someone who you consider the Master. Sit before a mirror. Look at the one in the mirror, and pray all that you need to.
When you do, a religious ritual, do not go to an altar. Sit a mirror there, and perform your ritual to that beautiful, beautiful God in the mirror. The more you speak, to the God in the mirror, the more and more your prayers will be answered, the quicker you will you understand who lies within. For remember, when you look at that God in the mirror, you never look with these (eyes), you look with this (heart). Thank you, God.
Visitor: Direction
Where? Is my only answer. Where? Isn’t that the confusion? Where do I go? And the fear behind it is, how do I go there alone?
Where do you go? Nowhere.
Why? Because you are Now Here, and there is nowhere else to go but now, here. When you look for a direction, you see it outside. When the stillness, of the joy of being now, here, is with you. It is this inner vision, that opens its eyes so wide, that all around you is only clarity. Where will you go outside? The north has its own share of problems, as does the south, east and west. Which direction will you take for joy? And where outside is this destination, that is joy? Joy is, when you become it. That is where you find joy. You find joy, in the reflection in the mirror; that is where joy lies. And who will you go with? There is only one residing in this universe, not millions. Not diverse, only one. Look into each face seated here, and you see only one face. The face that you see, in your mirror. Is it a lonely journey? Not at all, in that sense of being all, one. There is no one alone.
Visitor: Conflict
Conflict. All your questions show your conflict. But conflict is good. Welcome conflict in your life. The boat moves, only when the oarsman, pushes his oars in the water that resists. Conflict. It is through this conflict that the boat moves ahead. If there was a still calm sea, the boat would not move. You are the boat, you are the boatman, and you are the oars. And the universe is the sea that you must resist, because with every resistance will come pain. And with every pain, will come the push ahead. Conflict, are the oars that you hold firmly in your hand. If the boatman would be scared by the strength of the oars and the even greater strength of the large body of water, he would drop his oars and there his tiny boat would sink. But you are not a boatman who would allow yourself to sink. Hold on tight to your oars, and with every conflict, move the oars strongly behind, and push forward, with greater zeal, knowing, that just beyond the horizon, lies…. who knows what. But why do you wish to know? Isn’t that the joy of rowing, or not knowing, where you will go, which beautiful island you will land upon. Row for the joy of rowing, not for the moment of reaching, because in the moment of reaching, all joy is lost.
Last one child.
Visitor: Let go
Do not let go of the oars. That is not letting go. Let go of the mind tells you that your arms are hurting , let go. Your arms cannot hurt, they are strong, and they are the wings of the Archangel. The wings of an Archangel never falter. To let go is not to resist, the conflict. To welcome, each wave that is stronger than the last. To welcome it with honour and valour, knowing that these arms of an Archangel will never, never falter. When your arms hurt know that it is only this (mind) that is making you feel the pain hoping that you will let go off the oars. When you let go of the oars, there will be no more conflict.
True, you will either sink, instantly or remain in one position forever. Let go of your resistance to conflict, but remember the arms must move. When you push the oars, you are not resisting the conflict; you are welcoming it so that you can move through it. The arms must work. The boat is your life. Where you take it, this boat will go. You have to row. The moment you stop rowing, because you disguise this as letting go, your boat will be caught in an eddy. That will not be possible to come out of. You must continue rowing. You are the only boats man that there is. There is no heavenly boatman who will either still the storm, or push your boat. You are the boatman; you are God, the reflection in the mirror.
Letting go does not mean not doing anything. That is the way, of a very poor boatman, who has acknowledged defeat; and defeat of what? That he has been defeated by only a pair of oars? What a poor enemy you have conceded defeat to. When you concede defeat let your enemy be mightier than you, and then in honour you can concede defeat. A pair of oars, a pair of tired arms; is that all the enemy you could find?
No one will row your boat to the shore, if you do not row it on your own. The oars are only as heavy as you perceive them to be. The waves are only as large as you see them.
(To Yezad)From this meeting forth my son, you will ensure that the two leaders start the meeting first. They must now rightfully take their place, as leaders and start the meeting first. Only then, will the other two take the meeting. They may do this initially for only 10 minutes, but they must start the meeting first.
You are ready (Divyaa). You now have to stop fearing your readiness. Allow your journey to begin. Only take the first step.
They will both occupy these seats (Ellaeenah and Sohrab’s). Positions will now change. My son (Zafar) will be here. This child (Divyaa) will be seated here.
We ask you, to bow down in honour, to your two new leaders. You are ready my son (Zafar). And this entire group of beautiful souls are waiting for the direction that you two will give.
(To Yezad) Ensure that it is done.
Channeling through Divya.
Fond greetings.
Today we shall speak to you on karma. Many of you tend to revert, to viewing it in limited ways. Yes most of you have moved away from viewing karma as retribution but continue to consider it a burden something that you need to finish ,or get over , in order to progress. But my dears, we would like to make you understand, that karma is the progress. It may help you, if you replace the word karma, and all its preconceived notions, with the words learning, knowing, growing, and yes playing.
How can you finish learning, knowing, growing. It is your reason to be. You is what you as your more expanded self have chosen towards your very being. We shall digress for one of your moments, because it is imperative for you to understand, that all perceived separations from the whole, for whom or what you call God are out of divine choice, towards the larger foray or state of its infinite fulfillment.
From your point of view, this state or foray of knowing and becoming the whole again. This is creation’s reason to be if there is any, and what you perceive as a sequence as separation, experience and realigning, is a part of all realms, all journeys, all beings, which you as humanity have labeled as karma and view with such alarm.
There is no cause for alarm; karma is a gift, a divine opportunity. Your karma is your unique way, your opportunities of experiencing the whole. These opportunities in human terms are best effected by expanding and aligning your feelings and thoughts with their highest potential. That is all karma is. Expanding and aligning your feelings and thoughts, your beliefs with all that you are a lifting of the veils.
Now pay close attention. The human experience can be more accurately described as an expansion of thought, because in what you call the higher dimensions, it is the preferred medium of existence. However due to its fine and simultaneous structure, you have chosen a physical linear medium, in which to further practice and hone them. Therefore you view and experience your thoughts, through the externalized physical counterparts, which is action and all that it creates. Your relationships, events and things.
Understand them. The action and all that it creates are merely physical counterparts, reflections if you will, of your inner thoughts. That this why your world is your mirror, and why your ancients named your process karma, which only means action. It mainly describes that experience that uses the physical, the outward the external, to expand and align your inner self.
Now pay attention again, the cause of any action, is the belief behind the action. The effect is therefore of the belief behind the action. There is cause and effect, of course there is, but of your belief. You have spent many lifetimes viewing it to be the cause and effects of your deeds, and completely missed the interlinking thoughts and feelings, on which you are now ready to focus.
There is good karma which is aligned to the divine spark that is within, and what you call bad are those that are yet to be aligned some of which you choose to do of each lifetime. But understand how this works. A good karma is good simply because it is belief that its is aligned with its higher potential, reflects in a like-wise action, which leads to a like-wise effect only tuned to the universal laws of attraction. There is no judgment, no reward applied within it, that is the extent of cause and effect.
For example you enjoy abundance. It is not because you have done or do good in giving deeds, in this life or any other, but because your beliefs in abundance , being aligned with their higher potentials , reflect in likewise actions which you call good and giving, which then lead to likewise effects due to the universal laws of attraction. Similarly, what you call bad karma; merely being belief that are not yet aligned, continue to reflect an action of separation and illusion, which then lead to likewise effects, due to the same universal laws of attraction. No judgment, no punishment. You then view it as a negative experience, as a negative karma, but my dears it is only another opportunity to expand, that is all.
In closing we shall add as we always do, that what might appear older interpretations are not old or redundant, but required for soul growth. In this case, humanity needed to take responsibility for their actions, as a step towards taking responsibility for your thought. Because, in what you call higher dimensions, thoughts create instantly and you had chosen to master them. Incase all this talk of higher and finer dimensions makes you view in any way humanity as inferior, we shall hasten to correct you, very briefly, because this child is straining on this leash to conclude, very briefly, and in your terms you require a certain proficiency of consciousness and a deep commitment to its universal expansion, to qualify for the human experience. It is similar to your students who throng the master programs, in recognized universities across the globe, and feel worthy to participate. You may consider this, a universal university for masterhood, to which all of you have qualified.
Today we have spoken on karma in many ways, but what we would like you to do is go within, into your personal lives and co-relate all that you have heard today, with at least two examples as what you have viewed as karma.
Yes, we quite fooled you haven’t we, all this talk of karma when our main purpose was to make you go within.
Child (Ellaeenah) you will initiate a discussion on this, in one of your classes. Ask each one present to come with at least two examples. While there may not be time for all to share, all will have to prepare and so, go within.
We shall conclude.
Fond greetings
Channeling through Zafar:
Greetings. We first of all would like to thank you, and then ask you to please stop helping this child to dispel what he terms, negative energies. Stop now. He must learn, but it is up to him to transmute, any energy, whether he sees it as negative or positive. Does not matter, transmute and move. He must learn.
(To Sabal) My son, you are this far, from letting go. You know what we talking about. Your ego which is been you biggest friend for so long is now being shattered. One by one, every brick is being broken. You are this far take a risk, step over the line we are there. You are a master. You do not need to show you how to do this; we do not need to hold your hand. You can show us the way.
(To Devika) My child you too are this far, but not from letting go, from the greatest shift that your life can ever make for you. You will get what you most desire, but then do not blame us; it is yours for the taking.
(To Mayank) We thank you. You have been more than just a husband to our dear child. You have been the invisible pillar that she seeks for support. More than anything we thank you for being a friend, when she has most needed you. You indeed are great. And sometimes she will feel that we are not there for her, those times, son, make an example, we will come through you. Thank you.
Zafar was asked to get out of trance and speak through a conscious connection process:
Ashtar is there, as powerfully as he was just now, as they were. I am beings given some visuals, I need to try and explain them in my own words. I have to talk to you very briefly, on what human beings call unrequited love. And how each one of us have been through some experiences or experience where we have not got back the love from that human being that we loved so dearly. Not just a human being, could be an animal, could be an inanimate object, and doesn’t matter. I am being given a slightly skewed, slightly different perspective to look at this, and I just want to share that perspective with you, maybe it will ring true, if it does great.
The love energy is a bi-directional energy. It never flows in one direction. We always talk about giving love to someone and receiving love from someone. It is like an electric current, if you can visualize, moving, in both directions, on the same plane at the same time. So even though, there is one moving this way there is another moving exactly that same pattern back. Yet there is no conflict. There is no dashing of the energies. It is the only and the purest form of energy therefore it is, the only energy that can actually do this. Don’t expect anyone to love you back, it is not their function.
To be in complete universal love, means not receiving love, to us. Let me elaborate. Its not that you are not receiving love. Once you come, we have been told so many times, once you come from a level inside you where you self , you are so confident about what you are like El said earlier , when you look at the mirror, and you acknowledge what is there. Once you reach that level, many of us have, lots of us have problems with that. Then and only then can we output love to other people. Only then. The love has to first, I know they have said this so many times before, the love has to first be focused only inside, only inside, please, your husbands, your wives, your fathers, your mothers, your kids, your nephews and nieces. Don’t try to give them love until you yourself love yourself completely. However fat you are, however ugly you may think you are, it doesn’t matter, it gets dissolved.
There is only for human beings, in our understanding, outputting of this love energy and if you are master enough, to understand that someone loves you, you must not absorb that love. You must only be a mirror to that person.
So, if I love Ernie, I really love you, and you know that I do, it is so easy to be greedy and to say yes I want this person’s love. The trick is to just put up, to be the biggest mirror that you can possibly be to that person, saying "look, you love me because this is you." This is how capable you are of giving love. Look at you how beautiful you are. If you are capable of giving that love back 100% , without taking anything in, that person will realize soon , that they aren’t loving you but eventually loving themselves. I know it’s a bit hard to understand. Are you following me?
Ya Piloo, you are confused.
Pilloo: Inaudible
You are not seeing a mirror, you love you. That’s what it is, that’s what it boils down to eventually, you love you. Because you can love you. Hang on. Hang on. You are there, I am here. I am in love with you, as a human being. ‘Piloo is my existence. Because she exists, I exist. My God I don’t know what I would do without Piloo. If today she were not there in this world I would die. She is my everything. My God I love her so much.’ This is a bunch of rubbish that we do. The trick is not in focusing my love there, inside you, nor is it eventually focusing the love here inside me. The trick is focusing the love somewhere in between. So that today Piloo goes out of the picture, and Priya comes there. The same amount of love is outputted. Today Priya goes out of the picture and Kavita comes there, doesn’t matter. The same amount of love is outputted, or Captain doesn’t matter. It does not matter. Can you understand universal loving? Everyone in the same way? It is only directed towards you.
Question:Inaudible
Unconditional, unbiased, without judgment, without expectation. Expectation is the function of the ego. It is unconditional but it is unconditional love only to you. And then if we are worried that we are only outputting love and what am I getting back, what is this whole love mumbo-jumbo for? If I love you, and I am outputting the love to you and you are being the mirror for me , not only are you showing me how great I am , but the universe is replenishing every single bit of love I output. It’s replenishing that a thousand fold. And where does that love come from? The universal love. From everyone. So you are loving me back. Don’t think you are being a mirror. Don’t think that you aren’t. Because I get that love from the universe. Its like the water cycle.
Kavita:Inaudible
Complete, everyone is a mirror to everyone. If I really love you I need to be your mirror. I need to show you how great you are. And then you won’t need me anymore. You won’t need me, you can move on.
I just want to end, by saying, listen from the bottom of my heart; I love you with all the power that my heart can conjure up. Really, please be my mirror. I really need to see my capacity to love and to experience that, and so does El. So be her mirror also. Thank you.
