Q: I met with you a number of years ago, and I asked one question and it was a very valuable answer for me. But I've come a number of years back to this spot because there are a number of things that I need to peel away, still.?
?
A: When you think about all the life you've lived and all the things you've thought and all the things you've done and all the things you've said and blah, blah, blah, that does create a picture of a whole lot of stuff that you'd just like to peel away. But it isn't like that because it's not about peeling that stuff away, it's just about making new decisions. It would be like...well, we'll tell you something funny. Jerry and Esther, as they were traveling around in their big bus for a number of years, they would find themselves at a crossroads somewhere, usually out in the country somewhere, and they would make a decision that would be the wrong decision. And then they would laugh and say "Oh yeah, and we've made this mistake every time we get here, but we remember that as the way to go because it's the way we usually went here, but it was always the wrong way, but it's the way we kept remembering." And so, they just kept doing it again and again and again and again and again.
?
Now we want to take that analogy and pretend that you're in a situation where you've been lost, lost, lost - you've gone the wrong way and the wrong way and the wrong way and the wrong way and the wrong way and the wrong way and the wrong way and the wrong way, and you say what you just said to us "I have to go all those wrong ways and unravel all of those." And we say, or you could just go the right way. It's a much shorter journey to realize that you don't have to undo anything, because in all of that that you've lived, you launched rockets of desire of powerful clarity, and your Inner Being is crystal clear about who you are and what you want, so all you have to do is just tune in a little and listen and go that way. You don't have to peel anything away, and in fact, we've never known anyone who attempted to peel anything away that they just didn't add to it. Law of Attraction is like that.?
?
Q: Yes. And I get that up here, but something about...
?
A: Well, if you understand it, you understand it.
?
Q: But I've got this excuse to keep staying out of the Vortex and I really would like assistance with letting it go. But my parents were murdered in 2010, and I...
?
A: It's big; that's big.?
?
Q: It's big, and it's really big contrast...
?
A: Not to them. It's not big to them.
?
Q: Can you tell me more about that??
?
A: When you reemerge into non-physical, it is just such a wonderful experience of leaving resistance behind. Not one person, not one consciousness in non-physical ever nitpicks about the way they went; not one. It just doesn't come up. No one sits around and says "I got hit by a truck. What happened to you?" (Fun) None of those conversations are going on. No one says it was unjust, no one says it shouldn't have happened, everybody gets that it was perfect timing and that everything about it was just great.?
?
Q: I want that for myself, too.?
?
A: Well, the thing about deciding that you're not going to think about that thing you're thinking about is that you're thinking about it while you're deciding not to think about it. So you have to find other things to think about. So you want to let something of greater interest capture your interest.?
?
Now, one night when Esther was particularly missing Jerry a lot…she had launched lots of rockets, and she couldn't hear us because she was in distress. But later on, when she came out of her funk because she was focused on something else, we said to her, look for him where he is, not where he was. Now, we would like to say that to you, too…look for how they feel now, not about any of that - but you're not ready for that because every time you think about them, you think about that.
?
Q: And that was your advice to me seven years ago.
?
A: If you were standing close to the track and the train ran over your toe, you would have a different relationship with trains than almost everybody else.?
And everybody understands that. So, of course this is a bigger thing for you, but there are lots of other sticks in the pile, and that's the best part of all of this, because there are people who have these big, big things that trip them up big time, and it's really understandable, but you know what??
There are people who don't have anything really, really big, that have something by other standards not that big, that they use as this big thing to trip them up. So it doesn't matter if it's really a big thing that's tripping you up or if it's just a little thing that you're pretending is a big thing that's tripping you up - it doesn't matter, if it's tripping you up, focus somewhere else until you realize that you can have satisfaction in this moment and in this moment and in this moment.?
?
There's nothing for you to fix about that, there's nothing that you should have done differently, there isn't even anything for you to understand about that.
?
Q: So there's nothing that I did.
?
A: Absolutely not.?
Nothing.?
Nothing that you did had anything to do that.
?
Q: Not even wanting my freedom desperately?
?
A: Everyone wants their freedom desperately, and everybody's parents don't get murdered.?
A lot of people would like that, however. (Fun)?
You didn't create that.?
You didn't create that.
?
Q: At all??
Like 100% not?
?
A: Well, one thing about us is we don't talk about everything, but when we do, we're sure.?
?
Q: Is there any way that I am using my parents' guidance system instead of my own??
?
A: Well, if you were, you'd feel a whole lot better (Fun) because they feel great.?
?
Q: OK.
?
A: You really heard that, you really felt that, didn't you?
?
Q: Yes, I did.?
?
A: So, you're using the guidance system that you've superimposed over them - you're not looking at them where they are, you're remembering them where they were.
?
Q: Yes, I am. ?
?
A: Yeah.?
Oh, they have so much to say. (Fun) What they want you to know is a number of things - you're making a way bigger deal over this than is necessary, but they get that.?
And they're not saying anything like they are appreciating your concern because that's not how energies in non-physical feel about things. There's not even a question about why are you doing this to yourself because that might be the mindset that they might have had when they were still in their physical bodies, but that's not the mindset that they have now.?
All that concern or blame that you are mustering on their behalf does not exist at all.?
?
So, what we are feeling strongly from them is that they would like you to know them as they are.?
And they think you have strong misunderstanding of who they were then, but that's not of any consequence to them.?
They're not the least bit worried about you, because that's not how those of us in non-physical are, but physical humans feel bad when people don't worry about them.?
It's sort of odd for someone that you think should be worrying about you is not worried about you.?
?
This is a sort of good opportunity for all of us to have a conversation about the difference between non-physical and physical…you've picked up lots of really weird habits as you try to hold one another to standards.?
Lots of people try to control others by behaving in ways that sort of puts them in a box.?
And that was a lot of your experience.?
But it's an experience that you keep having even though it doesn't have anything to do with them.?
So you are like a lot of people…you care way too much about what other people think and not nearly enough about what your Inner Being thinks about things.?
?
So, something that Esther's been doing a lot lately is really enhancing her life experience - and in fact a friend of hers started doing it first, and he mentioned that he was doing it and it piqued Esther's interest and so she started doing it, not something that she heard from us but something that she heard from a friend and it was a really fun thing to do, and it goes like this:?
“I wonder what my Inner Being thinks about this. I know what I think, but I wonder what my Inner Being is thinking about this right now; I wonder what my Inner Being is thinking about this."?
And there's something about that pointed question that will show you, at least in a feeling sense, if you are in sync with your Inner Being and under the influence of your Inner Being, or if you're in sync with something else.?
?
And you're in sync with something else quite a bit.?
Every thought that's ever been thought still exists, and the Law of Attraction puts those thoughts together in cooperative streams, so to speak.?
So there are streams of consciousness about parenting and parent-child relationships, there's so much toxic stuff that is swarming around in a vibrational atmosphere because so many people are so insecure about who they are, and wanting to connect with Source energy, but feeling vulnerable, and then blameful, and then guilty.?
So those streams are really flowing strong.
?
The best analogy that we have about this was years ago, long before your experience with your parents and long before you visited with us, we were talking with a woman who lived in California near San Francisco, and she said to us "I've been driving across these bay bridges my whole life with no problem at all, and recently, when I get on one of these bridges I have a panic attack, and it's so severe that I feel like I want to lay on the floor board of the car until we've crossed the bridge."?
And she said "I don't know what it is about."?
And we said you're picking up on thought forms.?
?
Now, that's what we're talking about with these rivers and streams, you're picking up on thought forms. What's a thought form??
It's a thought that so many people have thought that is a really vivid thought that you can receive in sort of visual form faster.?
She didn't like the word thought form, and she didn't like that we told her she was picking up on thought forms, because it felt like they were after her and she couldn't avoid them, until we explained it a little more.?
You're picking up on thought forms, we said, but the bigger question is why are you picking up on these thought forms of vulnerability??
?
Well, in her case, she didn't have something as dramatic as what you've described.?
We said why are you picking up on these thought forms of such vulnerability, and right away she said "I know what it is - my neighbor was burglarized, and I've been meeting with the neighbors where we're trying to decide whether we should hire an officer to protect us or become a gated community or put bars on our windows."?
So, a subject totally not related to the bridge that was related to vulnerability was activated in her experience, and now, because she felt more that way than she'd ever felt that way before, not long before, there had been an earthquake in the area and some of those bridges had come down and some people were killed, there was a lot of thought around vulnerability and bridges that she didn't have access to until her burglarized neighbor activated vulnerability within her.?
Do you see what we're getting at?
?
Q: Totally, yes.
?
A: So you don't have to go back and peel away the layers of the onion, you don't have to figure it out, you just have to know that there are thoughts all around, and you want to be aware what influence are you under…are you under the influence of thought forms on a bridge, are you under the influence of vulnerable people who are afraid of other people??
This is a time when a lot of people are afraid of a lot of other people, and you don't need to be.?
This is actually a quieter, safer time than so many other times in your physicality.?
And yet, because you're so tied together, there's so much information that is offered to you and there are so many more people thinking about those kinds of things.?
?
If there were ever a time when it is to your advantage (we're talking to all of you) to hook into the confidence and well-being that your Inner Being feels for you, this would be a really good time to do it, because there are lots of thought forms that are running rampant that you could tap into without even meaning to.?
And we don't say that to you because we want you to feel vulnerable…you're not.?
We just want you to understand that when you feel like you're having a thought, and it feels so big that you know that you're not responsible for that thought - it's way bigger than the thought you were thinking, but it's an awful, sucky, not-good-feeling thought…you've just picked up on thought forms.?
But the question is why??
And the answer is always because you were messing around in that arena and you got something activated.?
You could even watch a movie that terrorizes you a little bit that activates it.?
Or if you could listen to someone else talking about something and activate a thought form.?
?
So, there's nothing to do about it, there's nothing to fix, nothing has gone wrong…the question is a much simpler question than we think you are allowing yourself to ask of yourself.?
And the question is just, does this thought feel good or does this thought feel bad??
That's the question…”What's my Inner Being thinking about this?"?
?
Q: I spend a great deal of my time aligned, and then I am shocked when I am drawn back in and somehow attract it.?
But even while I'm...
?
A: Instead of being shocked, put it this way, because we hear you saying shocked, and we also hear you saying guilty and disappointed in yourself "I should know better” - here's what we want you to say instead…”Law of Attraction is really strong, Law of Attraction gives me really good feedback and it gives it to me fast."?
And then say "And that's why I like to get out ahead of things…I don't want to just blunder into it and then have to deal with it.?
I'm going to get out ahead of it."?
And that's what meditation does, and that's what segment intending does - it gets you out ahead of it.?
It puts you in charge; you get to control the vibrational atmosphere in which Law of Attraction is responding to you rather than you just having just a knee-jerk reaction to it.?
Oh, we like this conversation.
?
Q: Yes, I love it, thank you.?
