For this process of change or fluctuation in the life as you make the connection to the higher realms can be very dangerous! It threatens the personality! It threatens the ego! It threatens all of the things that humans try so desperately to maintain. For by being born in a physical body they then start to become embedded in that physical reality and have forgotten by the time they are adults who and what they truly are. And when they are children any remembrances are often ridiculed or misunderstood for children are not good at communicating. And it is difficult for them to put over complicated ideas for they only see parts of the idea and when it is presented in this way it appears illogical.

And so as adults, channelling is that route back to finding out who and what you really are, to discovering more about your higher purpose, about your soul and your path of growth. For the guide is attuned to all of these thing and can give you information about them if you wish it. But most of all this connection moves light and light in it’s natural form will always flow. And when it is unable to flow, it will create build-up and these build-ups will always have to keep moving until they find another way to flow for light and love have to flow. Flow and fluidity are one of the natural states of all things in the universe.

That is a good question, dear one. One of the greatest challenges of being a channel in a physical body, is the challenge of the involvement of the ego and the personality. In order to detect whether ego is getting in the way is very difficult for you, especially when you are beginning to channel, because you are going through, is it me? is it a guide? what is going on here? And for this reason it is most important in the development of your work as a channel that you take care to spend a lot of time working through the most basic levels of your beingness. And when I talk of these levels, I am talking of physical level, of emotional level of psychological level, spiritual level too. But each level requires your attention and your rigorous mindfulness in some of the disciplines on the earth plane, in Buddhism, there is a construct of mindfulness, of being present in the moment and observing oneself at all times. This practice of centring into mindfulness is the most important and useful practice that you as a channel can develop. Mindfulness extends from the physical body, because if the physical body is not clear, then you will not be a good channel. It extends through the emotional body, and this is carried out through therapy, through psychotherapy, through NLP techniques, whichever technique draws you, it is important that you dissolve and release those clusters of beliefs, of emotions and of things that will trigger your material, that will trigger your emotional reactions and when you’re channelling, you will feel some of those reactions, will you not? You will feel fear or surprise, disgust – this is when you must be careful and get out of the way. So clearing yourself is the easiest way for this not to occur and this clearing is part of the path of spiritual growth. And so channelling takes you on the path of spiritual growth at all levels; but it has to come to the physical, you are a physical being, it must come to the emotional, for the nature of physical being is emotion. Does that answer your question, dear one? (It does, thank you.) Thank you for your question.

Indeed, for the soul, the higher self and guides, the only route through to the mind is through what the psychologists on the earth plane call the right brain. It is through those subtle nudges, those sudden insights and those feelings that you cannot substantiate but you know are right. These are the subtle intonations of the other side, of the higher self the soul and the guide. The connection with the higher self has to be made consciously by the individual and so that connection you could describe as being like a channel of light that is sent upwards from the crown Chakra to the higher self and it has been called by mystics in your earth plane the antakarana. The antakarana dear one is the cord of light between your physical body and the energy of your soul, the building of the antakarana is a key process in esoteric tradition, for good reason, because it is through this cord of light that you connect fully with the soul and are able to draw yourself fully into union with it, there is a question of the soul moving down and you moving up, for you must remember that the soul is not interested in you at all you are interested in your soul but your soul is quite happy, you must draw the soul in.

We see you as energy. And you could describe it as eggs we see you as egg shaped energy beings.

Exactly. There is no such thing as the wrong path for all choices are made at the time with the energy of that time with the knowledge of that time and many humans suffer from regret and guilt and sadness but what is the point of these emotions? For we are in the present, in the here and now, and looking back into the past is not a useful practise although the lessons will be learned in the time of the present they will not be learned in the past for they are, if you like, a movement of energy as you move through it. You are in it you have the experience and you move to the next experience. Life is lived moment to moment in the present.

Dear one there can be no wrong path and no wrong decisions, all is done in perfection for your soul and your energy will bring you to have those experiences that will most assist your growth. Your personality may cry out ‘I do not wish to have this experience,’ but the soul will inexorably guide it to have them next lesson. If you refuse to learn the lesson, if your personality will not integrate the lesson then you will be given the lesson again and again, maybe through many lifetimes until finally you accept it with gratitude and with love. And dear one, know that the secret of all spiritual growth is to be grateful to God for all that you are given whatever it is and to open your heart in love to all sentient beings.
