Self-honour. Trust a mother to put you on testing ground. (Laughter)

Firstly, I don’t think there is anything as self-honour; I think only honour. I’ll explain why. When I use the word ‘self’ (this is my twist on it), when I use the word ‘self’, in my mind I associate it with who I am, my I AM Presence, my very essence of spirit; that for me is SELF. Versus the I AM is the I AM NOT, which I call my ego presence. For me honour is all about SELF. I know (and several times, the Masters have even told us) that for there to be complete honour, one should have honour in one’s self, soul, as well as, one’s ego. I haven’t yet come to that place where I can completely honour my ego presence. I know why it is so. I have had past incarnations of being in positions of great power, great status. I have been a queen many times. From that has come my ego presence of great arrogance which, in this lifetime, I have chosen to completely overcome. When I overcome it completely, I know that I will have honour of my ego presence; till then, till my ego presence still has the residuary energies of arrogance, there will always be this conflict within me where, when I say I honour my ego presence, the whole aspect of arrogance will still come up and look me in the face.

But true honour is in both; and I know that. You have to honour yourself for who you are… I AM… and for who you are not… the ego… because were it not for the ego you wouldn’t be where you are. Our whole journey is from the I AM NOT to the I AM and, therefore, greater honour needs to be awarded to the I AM NOT. It is the strength and the courage of you, as the I AM NOT, that has undertaken this journey to attain the I AM. There is no great striving for honour in the I AM; that’s already who you are. You don’t have to really strive to be who you are; you already are this great, magnificent soul. The striving is to get away from the I AM NOT, and therefore it is that striving that is worthy of honour.

Thank you, mum; I think this is a subject I really need to acknowledge. It’s the honour of my ego presence that I really need to acknowledge. When one acknowledges that, and I think that’s what mum meant as self-honour, the honour of the small ‘self’, the honour of the ego ….. To honour ourselves for all that we are NOT, because when we look at the I AM NOT and we put before it a mirror, like a mirror that reflects an opposite image, the I AM NOT will only reflect the I AM. So your rage will reflect a righteous anger against what your soul knows to be the TRUTH, and the soul strives with the power of this righteous anger, which is not an unhealthy rage, to attain what is right for you. Out of arrogance, which is the I AM NOT, comes a joy in being proud of the position of leader that you have, a true leader. Not everyone in the universe is a leader; those of us who are, we have to be proud of that. But very often, from the I AM NOT comes the arrogance of that; but in that arrogance, lies the strength of courage to see your own I AM NOT and then move from arrogance to true pride at being one of the leaders of the universe. And this applies for everything that we are NOT. In that WE ARE NOT is what WE ARE. And if we could make a list, as I have done, and write down all that you are not, and within each aspect of what you are not see the reflection of what you are, you will be able to find the honour of the ego, the smaller self and there will be true honour of who you are and who you are not.

The conflict between ego and self arises, very often, because in our desire to be All That We Are, we wish to push ego out of the ‘car’ and ego knows that it cannot leave that car. That car would be incomplete. It needs both passengers, ego and soul, and ego fights hard to stay there, often shouting, "Can you not see that I am needed? I can’t leave." And the more you push, the more ego pushes back and the conflict arises. When you tell the ego, "I don’t want you to leave. I just you to shift position and move over to the back seat" ego says, "That’s fine. I’m in the same car. If you need me to move, of course I’ll move". It’s like when I want to drive I just tell Yez, "Hon, please slide over. I want to drive" but if I tried pushing Yezad out of the car, there would be a very big conflict. (Laughter) And that is exactly what we need to do: not push the ego out but just to say, "Shift a little please. I want to drive today".

Good evening.

A few changes to be made in the lives of a few people today. (Smile)

(To Shernaz) You, my beautiful one, you will start a small regular group of people you will speak to and teach. None must be your close friend circle; that would be too easy. You can start with as small a number as you’re comfortable with but it must be regular. You will be guided about what you need to speak to that group and initially, we will also leave it to your comfort whether you wish to take an energy exchange; but only initially till you have found your level of confidence and know when you are ready to start the exchange. We will not push you into starting the group immediately but we hope that you will do it as soon as you can. And no close friends.

No.

(To Piloo) You, my beautiful one, the same sessions that you had in the other city, helping people with their personal questions, you will continue the work here. They will come to you as they came to you when you were in the other city and with your master, you will guide them; help them with all their problems.

(To Raju) You, my beautiful one, you now have a unique opportunity to talk to complete strangers about your knowledge. You haven’t been doing that. Please start. Let them know who you really are. You have been living a little lie, showing them an aspect of you that is certainly present, but is not completely you. Open yourself to them. You have much to offer. Do not for a moment think that you are in that environment by random chance; you are not. You have been placed there to reach them on a completely different footing, not a formal one like these two, but that of a friend, someone who knows something different. Excite their interest.

(To Aneeta) You, my pretty one, you have far to go. May we ask you to always remember not to be tied to one place? Let part of your energy reside everywhere, and constantly go and feed this part with your power, and then return. You are not one to have roots; don’t wish for that. There has been a small shift and the wandering soul wants to settle down; but the ‘wanderer’ cannot. You must wander, explore distant new horizons and everywhere you go, you will take a part of this group’s energy with you and leave it there to do its work, silently.

What do you wish us to talk of today?

Then let’s talk of SILENCE. (Laughter) Let us understand first, what is silence. For that, I wish you to be quiet for 2 minutes. My son (Sohrab), will you time the 2 minutes? Yes, be quiet for 2 minutes.

You can stop; not even 2 minutes and how loud you all were, how very loud (referring to the inner thoughts). It was very amusing to hear some of you. You were ‘quiet’, not silent. Silence does not exist in quietude. It exists in a place, deep within you, where you hide away, secretly, your deepest fear, your greatest joy; they co-exist in the same deep secret place where no one, but you, has access.

Quiet means ‘lack of external sound’. Silence is ‘the joy of hearing aloud the shout of ecstasy of the I AM Presence.’ Quite different from what you thought silence was all about. You can be shouting aloud, talking and laughing and still have complete SILENCE within, where from this deep, deep silent space shouts the joyous ecstasy, "I AM. I AM. I AM." And you may be completely quiet, as you were, and have a loud conversation with yourself inside of all the illusions you are surrounded by. "How hot it is!" "Are you sure 2 minutes are not over yet?" "Let me try and have no thoughts… but when is my friend coming? She had promised to come half an hour ago?" (Laughter) So many different, different thoughts.

Don’t be quiet, be silent. It is in silence that you understand what this one (Ell) spoke off before: true honour. It is in silence that you understand that, not in quietude. Maintain just 3 short seconds of silence where you permit your innermost joy to shout loudly, "I AM" and then open your eyes and see what you find around you. Did you feel the ecstasy? It is not the same as being quiet, is it? The ecstasy doesn’t calm you, it exhilarates you; it excites you, thrills you. It is not soothing, not comforting, not serene. It adds to your energy, a thrill, a pulse, verve; that which wants you to get up and start moving.

And yet, in your world, both need to be experienced. You need to be quiet to calm the ruffled edges of your energy field; quietude does that. It helps you to get tranquil again. In that tranquility, lies the environment that is set for SILENCE because it adds joy and excitement and anticipation to life. I AM…. and never, never define or limit I AM. Do not say "I AM joy". Do not say, "I AM love". You only put an obstacle to being ALL; just shout, "I AM"; then there is INFINITY that you can touch.

And when you can hear the I AM shout, the thrill that you will find will be like fresh new blood pulsing through your veins and you will know just what you need to do, what you need to be, in an illusory moment of time, what you need to say and what needs to be done. That knowledge can come only from Silence, not quietude.

My beautiful one (Aneeta), when you now teach, let them learn that they can go beyond quiet to the shout of silence. Let them experience the inner shout, the inner sound that is so loud that it drowns out all external sound and just shouts out, "I AM". Teach them to access that place and you will not need to teach them anything else.

If, for even brief moments a day, you can experience the shout of this silence, you will know what you need to do throughout that day. Yes, of course you need to be quiet sometimes, to let the conscious mind settle down because the conscious mind is like a 3 year old child, constantly hopping from one foot to the other, wanting the mother to get up and dance with it. And it’s wonderful to dance with the conscious mind but sometimes the 3 year old has to be held by the mother who rocks it into tranquility. And that is the job of being quiet. But when the 3 year old awakes, after having been rocked into tranquility and hears the soft sound of its mother in its ears, "Wake up, my beautiful one" there is a joy of ecstasy deep within its heart that says, "I AM my mother". And aren’t you your own mother, your own creator? All that the Divine has created is what you are. So hop away on one foot for large times of the day; rock yourself to sleep by being quiet and then whisper loudly, "I AM".

Attain silence, more and more, now. Be wherever you need to be. You do not need to be quiet to attain silence. You do not need to run away from life. You need to run away from what you believe. You need to run away from all that pain that is so comfortable that you do not wish to let it go. Yes, pain can be very comforting. If you are used to constantly wrapping yourself in a thick, coarse blanket, which has stayed around your shoulders for years and years and years, when you remove it you will feel bare, you will feel cold. The feeling will certainly be very uncomfortable and you will take up that coarse blanket and wrap it around yourself again and say, "Ah! That feels much better" even if the coarseness makes your skin red and sore, even if the thick blanket makes you sweat and perspire, even if the weight of the blanket is so much that you are bent double; it still feels good.

You need to have strength to remove that blanket. Do you know, my beautiful ones, strength is not required to carry burdens. That is done by mere conditioning. Strength is required to drop the burdens. Strength is required to walk light, to carry no weights about your shoulders, to expose yourself to the heat and the cold, knowing that neither has power to harm you because every moment you are shouting within, "I AM". And if your pain is constantly with you and not letting you go, it means only one thing, my beautiful child (Rachel) that you do not wish your pain to go. Your coarse, rough blanket is what you want around your shoulders. You do not want to drop it. You may say you do. You may look at another whose blanket is neither as coarse nor as heavy as your own and you may intellectually wish, "I wish I had her soft, silken light wrap around my shoulders" but the moment you are given it, you will put it aside saying, "this is too smooth; it slides off my shoulders. It is not as heavy; I don’t even feel its weight. I am not comfortable. Take it back; give me my old coarse blanket again" Remember this; if pain persists in your life, it is because you do not wish to let your blanket go.

You have a wonderful little comic strip, don’t you? Of the child who clutches on to his little comforter and he never lets it go; wherever he walks, he walks with his little blanket trailing behind him. Sometimes he trips and falls over his own little blanket but never does he let it go. He trips, he stands, and he walks again, holding on to his blanket that is so comforting. Are you all the little cartoons of your universe? You have a very unique television channel name. You call it ‘Cartoon Network’. How telling a name! How revealing of your world! CARTOON NETWORK. You ‘network’ with each other; interact at the ‘cartoon’ level, each one holding their little blankets, getting very upset if someone else stamps on your blanket. And beware if anyone should take it away from you! (Laughter) Sometimes, have fun looking at the names you give various things. You will find in them such a wealth of knowledge about yourself. Names don’t just ‘pop up’.

Have a look at your cartoons; this time, do not watch it from the perspective of a child. Watch it and understand the conditioning these cartoons give you, as growing adults. Cartoons are created by conditioned adults who then pass on their conditioning, through official exciting means of ‘cartoons’ to children. When Tom and Jerry chase each other, are you not inviting your child to believe that the world must exist in this manner? Your cheese must not be touched by another. Tom and Jerry must constantly hurt one another in order to survive. They must try to best each other at wits; only then is survival possible. Watch your cartoons. Understand your world in a light vein. The cartoons mirror your world.

So, my child (Rachel), the choice is yours. He can help (pointing to one), she can help (pointing to another) but only to the extent of rubbing your blanket and saying, "My beautiful friend, you do not see how sore your skin has become. Come, give me your blanket". They can only ask; they can never snatch your blanket from you, just as no one can snatch any of your blankets from any of you.

And it is sad when we see with burdened, heavy shoulders, carrying blanket upon blanket, upon blanket, around you, falsely thinking, "They comfort me. They give me warmth." You have become used to this sore skin, to the bleeding wounds. You don’t know how to stand straight anymore because you’re used to walking bent.

When the blanket is removed, you feel, for the first time, vulnerable. It is for this vulnerability that you need strength, because your conditioning tells you, vulnerability is being weak. No. To be vulnerable is to be a Master; to open yourself up and to say, "What is a cross? A cross cannot kill me. What are the nails that go into my palms, my wrists, my ankles? Only blood oozes from my wounds, not my Life Force. Come! Put me up on this cross. I am willing to die if in my death you find your Will to Live. I am willing to mirror who you are not, if in my mirror you see how beautiful you are. Come! Make me as bloody as you wish, as ugly a picture. Lash me. Whip me. I still shout, I AM". That is vulnerability. And for that, you require strength.

Can you drop the blanket from around your shoulders? A hard wooden cross seems light in comparison to the weight you have carried throughout your life. Go home today, take 2 twigs, make it into a cross. Take the blankets from around you and let them fall. Embrace that twig. Open your arms wide and say, "Crucify me. I am the resurrection. I am life. I AM".

Be Light, my beautiful ones, be Light.

There exists, as you well know, a city above your city. It has been spoken of among members of your group and slowly, this knowledge is being internalized by each and every one. Yes, it is, indeed, a celestial city and many others, like this city, exist as twin flames of various earth areas, not necessarily cities. And just as you have communication between your various cities, there is a naturally instant mental telepathy and vibrational exchanges that take place immediately.

It may interest you to know that the equivalent of a Noah’s Ark sails from city to city. Yes, in the form of a starship. This Noah’s Ark, as we shall term it for today, contains various energy signatures that are required by different areas around your planet. Of course, the arks move inter-galactically too but for the purpose of today, we wish to talk about the exchange that occurs between the cities.

Just as you, as a group, have a unique vibration, comprising your individual energies and the collective group energy, which is always exponentially more than the sum of its parts, so do these cities have entities, areas and vibrations that are required for exchange and growth` of others. Starships, the Noah’s Arks, move and physically, physically, carry these energies around your globe. You witness these, very often, in the form of streaky coloured clouds, sometimes as lightning bolts (not always, but sometimes) and sometimes, in your perception, what are shooting stars; not all of them are shooting stars. Energies from your group are already being transported and exchanged with energies of other similar groups from around this planet. You have already caused a single uni-directional beam, from your group, to move upward into the etheric city. This energy, if you will, is stored in a replica of your group, in this city. That energy is refined, as it is in its purest form and is then transported in small or larger doses on an exchange basis with other groups. So at this given instant of NOW, your collective group energy above is actually different to your energies here. It has already merged and melded with other groups.

What you will shortly be doing is creating a unique space for your own unadulterated energies in the cosmos, above and beyond this area of the floating cities. That will be your own energies in their purest form. Energies of that level can never be exchanged or corrupted but other energies that pass through them carry, then, a signature residue of your purest form. That is how your temple will aid other energies.

We do not wish overburden you. Small hints of the temple will be passed to you, from time to time to peak your curiosity.

THY WILL BE DONE.
