“Trusting the Process”
Delivered through Sonoktar, August 30, 2009
Opening Transmission:
“Mah. Mah. Open. Create the opening. Mah-Hah.
Once you have fulfilled the potential of an idea, a place, a relationship, a perspective, a circumstance, it shifts. It simply completes and moves on. Because time is basically the flow of potential fulfilling itself. All moments in time appear to end. But actually, they simply complete themselves and remain fixed in the grid of experience, and it is the perspective of the observer that moves on. There is no time. There is no flow of time. Rather, there is the movement of the observer through time, which is fixed. This means that you are never alone. There is never a completion that makes something not be part of reality. It simply may be outside of your view as an observer in a particular moment. But that reality, that moment, that connection that you have had in the past with anything, is still there and is always there.
Moreover, once you are connected to a thing – a person, a place, an experience, any kind of creation – once you are connected to that thing, you are connected to everything that thing is connected to. And that makes you part of a web that is always in place and always connected to every other aspect of creation. That is your setting. That is your nature. You are that creation. You are part of that web. And, actually, you are perspective moving through the field of time. All of those experiences, all of those distances in all moments across all time are part of the web. The grandchildren – the children of your children – will have an opportunity to experience this collectively. They will move into a time where technology has shifted. The new form of technology will not be based on electricity, it will be based on awareness. That is called ‘psychic,’ but actually, ‘psychic’ is simply one facet of awareness. Awareness is the interconnection that occurs. What you create by coming together, creating the web that you do create, makes it possible for others to extend that creation – to replicate it and evolve it. That becomes the structure, so that eventually the generation of your children’s children can come together and know themselves collectively and be able to experience their specific context in the grid of all of time as a group energy. That will be a very profound step for humanity. It is something that requires faith for you to begin to lay the foundations for now, because it is not part of the collective reality now. It is new; it is not part of the established world, so it requires trust.
Your intuition says there is more to life than what meets the eye. And, indeed, of course there is. Be present to your Guidance. Let your actions move more than simply your own life. But make the action, make the effort that creates the thing that goes beyond your life, so that you can be the first rung on a ladder that continues to elevate others far beyond the reach of your own life. And that is how the Ancients lived on through their grandchildren because what they did with their lives became the stepping stones of the others. And literally, they became collective energies like a snowball that would roll and grow with each generation, each generation building upon the last and the previous and the previous and the previous, such that collective energies could fulfill their potential over time.
That is our initial message. And it is a large part of why this group is gathered.
What are your questions?”
Questions Asked:
QUESTION: On our very first call of the Firekeepers back in July, the Source stated that we bring our anxiety and fears to the group. In general, I know it’s part of our humanity to have these feelings and impossible to be rid of them completely. Was the Source alluding that we must not bring these feelings to the group? What was the meaning and the purpose of the statement that we bring our anxieties and our fears to the group? Can the Source please expand on this statement?
RESPONSE:
“What was encouraged was to bring expression of all aspects of being to the group. This is important because every aspect of humanity is purposeful. It is like a motor, an engine. Every part of the engine is part of the engine – the sound it makes, the exhaust, the vibration, the movement, the smoke, the oil it produces, even the chalk – the coal powder that comes out with the smoke. All of these are part of the engine, and if you were to try to eliminate any one of them, the entire engine would shut down.
In this time, in this culture you live in, it is extremely important to express yourself, fully, because there is a tendency towards repression. There is a tendency towards constantly monitoring yourself to present yourself to others as they would deem appropriate or as you believe they would deem appropriate, rather than fulfilling your own nature constantly as a way of life. And this has resulted in a great deal of illness, imbalance, suffering, simply because you are trying to repress parts of yourself that are a natural part of you being in the world, such as anxiety, frustration, anger, resentment, confusion. These are not parts of existence to make your central, orientating purpose - in other words, it is not good to make ‘frustration’ the fundamental key in your life around which everything else revolves - however, it is very natural as a human to experience frustration, and to bring that to the group gives permission for the others to experience it. That will make the engine run smoothly because everyone will feel empowered and authorized to be who they are, with frustration, with anxiety, with confusion, which are all natural by-products of living – especially living a courageous life. And innovators are always having to be courageous, which is often frustrating, and often creates anxiety and confusion, etc.
So, as we were empowering a group of pioneers to begin a journey that would often be frustrating, often be confusing – not only because of the work of the group but because of the context of the Earth changing its form, and the culture which is collapsing, in a time which is accelerating and is becoming more and more confusing (and yet, at the same time, more and more rich and full of potential), the result of the stress of that on the human is quite likely to be an increased experience of those things such as anxiety, frustration. So, we wanted to encourage the engine to trust its process. And when you bring a complaint, when you bring an anxiety, when you bring a confusion, simply express it. Do not try to resolve it for each other. Do not try to solve it. But, do not repress it. Simply express it and continue on. And that will allow the engine wheels to be greased because every part will be free to move as it is, and the engine will continue to run. But if you try to stop the exhaust from coming out of an engine, anyone who knows engines knows what that results in, which is that the engine will completely collapse its functions because it must have a way to express itself through the exhaust system. And that is what we are encouraging.
And that goes for everything in your lives. If you want things to work around you, allow people to express. Encourage them. Express yourself as an example and also to keep yourself in balance.”
Seeker: “Thank you.”
RESPONSE: “Do not try to solve the expression. That is the key. Allow the expression but then simply continue on with the purpose.”
QUESTION: Greetings, Sonoktar. Thank you for being here with us. How can we center ourselves with the energies that we are experiencing?
RESPONSE:
“Keep progressing. Do not try to experience it, and do not try to control it or savor it or own it in any way. Simply move forward. You have experienced what it is to be part of a flow, for example, a flow of traffic. When the observers find something along the path which they decide they must slow down for and take a look at and really get an experience for themselves of whatever it is that they are passing by, then immediately the traffic flow becomes confused and backed up. Perhaps there will even be collisions because the flow was moving forward and all of a sudden there is some kind of a blockage. Imagine that you are all part of that kind of a river or flow, and if you simply move forward, you will find that the path continues. It is almost as if the momentum itself creates the path, which it does. Faith creates. Momentum creates the need for an extension of the path, and that extends the path because the need for something creates that thing, instantly – the true need.
So, do not try to grasp the experience. Do not try to taste it and have it and control it and learn about it and analyze it because all of those things require you to grab onto something that is actually simply changing all the time. And the moment you try to grab onto it and make it yours or to make it controllable or to turn it upside down and examine it, even so that you can fully experience it – the moment you do that, you slow it down, you create resistance, you stop relating to the flow as a flow and you start relating to it as a particle, a piece of life. And it is not a piece, it is a flow. And so, it may sound a little confusing why that is the answer to your question, but that is the essence – do not try to own it or experience it or hold it in any way. Simply move forward constantly – what is the next and the next and the next and the next way of being true to your spirit in this moment. And that flow will create an acceleration that will allow you to align with the flow of the times, and then you become part of the river. And then the river becomes your path. And it is very clear which way to go.”
Seeker: “Thank you. Thank you.”
RESPONSE: “In this culture, you have the concept of ownership which is not true in all cultures. It was not true in most of the history of mankind because there was simply no separation between the group, and the group and the other groups were simply not tolerant of each other in many circumstances and so there was no sharing between groups, but there was no ownership within groups. You have developed ownership as a concept. The majority of your interactions with each other are based on the concepts of ownership. You share what you have with your friends; you purchase what you do not own but need from whoever it is that ‘owns’ it currently; you work, primarily to create the currency you need to own whatever it is you need to live, etc. That concept of ownership as a fundamental approach has created a kind of a resistance to the flow of your life. The flow of your life constantly delivers, absolutely freely, a new moment. You are delivered into a new moment – the new moment has circumstance, context, a place – perhaps there are other people present, perhaps there are things present for you to use or not use, but each moment has its setting. The concept of ownership makes you detach from the flow of moments that are being delivered freely to you by life and instead conceptualize those things in your world as being yours or not yours and then you have to strategically organize the ownership of things so that you can arrive into moments freely.
What we propose is that if you release the idea of ownership, not as an economic policy, not as a civic structure, but simply as a personal approach in your own lives – simply release the hold on ownership of things too much, share what you have and receive what comes to you in life, use it, release it, and then receive the next thing that comes – if you do that, you will allow yourself to ‘plug in,’ so to speak, into the pool of abundance that is there. It is actually the holding, the controlling of resources, that is fundamental to the ownership approach, that makes you have resistance to the flow of abundance that is naturally there. So practice sharing and releasing ownership. When something is needed, give it freely. When you need something, receive it, borrow it, use it, access it. Let it be something that comes and goes freely. Practicing that will allow you to be present in the flow of time much more freely. You will start to see that you are given, in each moment, exactly what you need in that moment to fulfill your purpose. And it is never because you own – well, rather we should say, it is not because you have controlled things efficiently. It is always because you are simply that part of creation which in that moment can fulfill a purpose. And so, you are given what you need to do that on behalf of creation because creation needs you to fulfill that moment as part of its overall wholeness.”
Vibrational name reading for Glenda
QUESTION: I’m not sure exactly how it was worded, but you have given vibrational names. I would like to know if you could give me my vibrational name at this time.
RESPONSE:
“Speak your name.”
Glenda: “Glenda...”
RESPONSE: “Uuliahn.”
Glenda: “Could you say that again, please?”
RESPONSE : “U-U-Li-Ahn. U-U-Li-Ahn."
Glenda: “U-U-Li-Ahn.”
RESPONSE: “Uuliahn is ‘the hill that encounters itself and then flows forward into openness.’ It is like a clap of thunder – the clouds collide, the clap of thunder encounters itself and explodes and then goes forth as a wave of sound into infinity and dissipates. And that is your nature. You have an experience, you encounter your own self having the experience and that makes it very dramatic. It makes it concrete. And then that wave moves forward out of you into the word as an expression or an experience or a creation. And that ripples out into infinity. And so, you are like a vestibule of creation – an incubator, where something is first sparked and then experienced and then moves out into the word and affects the world.”
Glenda: “Thank you.”
RESPONSE: “If someone were to be creating something new, or if someone were feeling unsure about something – an idea or an approach, a project – they could come to you and they could present it to you, whatever it is – the idea, the dilemma, the project. You could have an experience of it inside of yourself, and then you would actually have an experience of yourself experiencing it. That would magnify it into something you would then express outward. And then they could be affected by the wave of your experience of it being expressed, and it would be a way for others to test or even sample the results of their idea, almost like creating a prototype of it.
And so, it would be very good for others. If you are unsure about something or creating something new or you have a dilemma, bring it to this one, this person. Share it and then hear what it is she produces as a result of experiencing it. And that will give you a huge amount of information about how that thing would manifest in the world. That is very useful. When there is a big corporation, a ‘company’ as you call them, a group of people who are investing a significant amount of resources into an idea, they will almost always create a prototype first, a laboratory, so that they can invest in the right combination of things before investing all of their eggs into one basket, so to speak. So, you have here a living laboratory – this person – a prototype-maker, an actual experiencer of things even before they exist who will give you back a feedback that will be very representative of what is likely to result from anything you are going to create. So it is quite a gift. You are the laboratory. You are the test group, the practice group, the prototyper. In some ways, you can give an indication of the future, but it is not because you go beyond time. It is simply because you have an echo inside of yourself that allows you to experience your own experiences. And so, it is like you create a chamber, a context inside of yourself.”
Glenda: “Thank you, that is true. Thank you.”
RESPONSE: “By the way, that is also why anyone who is lying to themselves finds you very annoying. You will manifest back to them the exact – the repercussions of whatever seeds they are planting. They will get very fast feedback. So do not blame yourself for other people’s discontent with the results of the seeds they plant into your fertile consciousness.”
QUESTION: Would you recommend that we learn to control our minds?
RESPONSE:
“We would recommend you learn to play your mind like an instrument. If you are going to control the instrument, that is one way to play. But it is much more fulfilling musically to learn how to play the instrument, which is partly involving a kind of control, but it is more of a humble partnership with the instrument rather than a domination of the instrument. Your mind is a magnificent creation. It allows you to construct blueprints, things which do not exist, so that there is then a seed of that thing in the universe and energy can form around the blueprint to create, eventually and possibly, a manifestation of that thought structure. It is a magnificent miracle of a gift.
However, what has happened, as you know, is that in the culture of your time, the mind has become the god. Your thoughts have actually replaced your connections to your nature. You actually believe – many of you believe – you are your thoughts, rather than being a spirit who has thoughts as one option for how to be in energy. So the mind has dominated. It has actually eclipsed your true natures for millennia, so it is very imbedded in your awareness, your language, your culture, your traditions.
How do you gain your garden back from a vine that has overtaken all of the trees, all of the flowers, all of the fruit trees? You must begin to cut back the amount of energy that is put into the mind and instead invest that energy into the other parts of your being, such as your body, your connection with heart and Spirit, your connection with others. And your connections with emotions – although that is often connected to the mind. And by investing energy into these other things, you will learn that your mind has a role to play. It comes into focus in a more balanced way and then the beauty of the mind can play its part. So it becomes like an instrument that you can give your time to learn how to play, create with, but it does not have to dominate your world. And it most certainly should not be confused with your true nature, your self, your spiritual connection.”
QUESTION: A number of months ago, you said that I was going to go through a stormy period and that I would come out the other end pure light. And at one point I thought, does that mean I’m going to die? The time frame that you suggested is extended way beyond. You said three months and now it’s been at least six. And it’s been very stormy, and I really hope to come out pure light. I think that’s why I’m here. Do you have an inconsistency with your time frames when you predict things? I’d like an update, can you do that?
RESPONSE:
“There are three parts to your concept of yourself. Part is a filter, and that is the storm. The storm itself is part of you in your concept of self, and that is one part and it acts as a filter. There is the second part, which is all the things in your life that have made it through the storm that still exist because they have come through the storm and are on the other side. Then there’s the third category, which are all the things that have not survived the storm – they have simply not been able to continue. And you have continued to define those things as being part of you. So you conceptualize yourself as being three categories put together – that which has not made it through the changes, those things which are themselves the storm, the drama, the changes, and then those parts of your life which have made it through the filter of the storm.
The reason it seems so confusing to you now is that you still identify yourself as being the sum total of all three of those categories and, in actuality, what you are going to eventually discover – and yes, time frames are always confusing because they are subject to change – what you are eventually going to arrive at is that you are actually, in truth, only that set of things which have completely made it through the storm. In other words, the filter of the storm has refined you and made it possible for some very small set of things to continue, and a very large set of things have to be left behind in order for you to continue forward. But you have not quite let go of those things yet, and so you are still connected to the storm and you are still connected to the things which cannot make it through the storm – almost like a gate, where there is baggage you are attached to that is simply too big to make it through the gate. And so you are still stuck at the gate. You are still holding onto the baggage that cannot make it through the gate and that makes it impossible for you to move beyond the gate. Let go of the baggage that cannot easily make it through the gate. And that will let you move beyond the gate. And then you will find that you are that which has passed through the gate. And then you are free to move forward.”
Seeker: “Thank you.”
RESPONSE: “You will be a lighter man. Your wealth does not lie in anything heavy. Remember that. You will be a lighter man.”
Closing Transmission:
“Let us say this:
Ohm. From deep within, your voice speaks. It is almost like the void speaking into a void. That call, that voice, is you. What it says, take as law. What it says will be few in words, but if you trust that voice, you become the essence of life. All things come from the essence.”
