Thursday Session #9 - May 17, 1984 Gloria’s Circle
PRESENT: David Burns, Dorothy Lee, Karl Lofquist, Pat Swope, Wes Sinclair, Tony Richardson, Sharon Sawyer, Kristine Curry, Peggy and Corbin Willis, Betty Welty, Medium - Gloria Rivers
GLORIA: Focus your attention on the candle. As you know, my trance depends on your concentration. And as you focus your attention on the candle, visualize to yourself a rose. Let it be at first a tight bud, like in the early morning, with dew on it. Then as the warmth of the sun dries up the dew, the petals loosen, and the bud begins to open its blossom. And as you visualize that strongly, begin to tune into the rose as though you yourself were that blossom. And your inner understanding opens as the petals open, so that whatever is given here tonight, you will receive with understanding. And that will be a blessing to you as the sun is a blessing to the rose.
SHEARIAM: And good evening to all of you.
[Answers.]
And how have you fared since last we met?
[Affirmative answers.]
And how has your understanding fared?
["Not so fine."]
Inasmuch as this is our last meeting for some time, we will give less of a direct message and hope to respond to your questions as fully as we may. Do you have anything you wish to discuss?
VOICE: Yes -- world affairs.
SHEARIAM: In what respect?
VOICE: It looks like things are starting to get bad again, the Russians not going to the Olympic games and things like that.
SHEARIAM: And what would you have from us?
VOICE: Find out if this is a part of the changes that are coming.
SHEARIAM: Of course it is a part of it. All of the world events for the last many, many centuries are part of the unfolding pattern. If you are speaking of prophecies of last time, all in your written histories comprises fulfillment of those prophecies. Prophecies came from before your recorded history.
ANOTHER: I think he is talking about the world events -- that they are culminating in a world conflict.
SHEARIAM: That is exactly what I am speaking of. This did not begin ten years ago in your time, nor 100 years ago in your time, nor 2,000 years ago in your time, but was in the making from the beginnings of your world. What you view as cataclysmic is only similar to what has been in the way of cataclysmic events in the history of your planet.
We do not make predictions; the prophecy has been made. When you grasp the fact that time is a matter of consciousness, then perhaps you will be better able to understand why the prophecies in your Scripture, for instance, which say, "Now is the time" have not appeared for hundreds of years, but have appeared in previous cycles of this planet's existence. Do you have a particular specific question?
KRISTINE: Other than prayer and meditation, is there anything we can specifically do about this course of events, particularly the Olympics?
SHEARIAM: Oh, indeed! You will recall, as given before, that thought is transmitted. Each and every one who transmits a thought makes an impact. You must remember that you are attempting to transmit a thought from one belief system to another, and thus the impedance is greater. It is not a matter of language but a matter of conditioning, conditioning from centuries of genetic coding and experience.
But if you wish to change the course of events, you concentrate on transmitting a conceptual idea. If you wish the Soviet Block to participate in your current Olympics, then you visualize that happening and purposefully direct your thoughts as you would a telegram to the heads of state in whatever countries, any of them, primarily, of course, into Russia. If enough people do that, then a change can be wrought.
Another method by which this might be done would be to direct your conceptual ideas and your thought patterns to your own national emissaries who are attempting to bring a change in this decision.
VOICE: That would seem a little easier than trying to send it all over to Russia.
ANOTHER: But you're not approaching the right one that way.
ANOTHER: But if you think of Russia, the thought's already gone. So you have to think of Russia in sending it to the one here.
RESPONSE: No. You have to think of the Russian athletes participating in the Olympics here. The rest of it you can forget.
SHEARIAM: I do not believe it has been given. There is actually little difference, except a modernization of language. "Prophecy" seeming to be more profound, and "prediction" having less commitment.
VOICE: If the Bible is the basis for the prophecies and predictions, the Armageddon prediction that they have, appeared before the year 2000. Will that occur?
SHEARIAM: First of all, the Bible is not the foundation for the prophecy. The prophecy was made before the Bible. The Bible simply records the prophecy. However, Armageddon has happened many times in the history of this planet. There is an Armageddon nearly every day of your life in one place or another.
VOICE: What is the story behind the number 666 and the Anti-Christ?
SHEARIAM: The prophecy is that one will wear the mark of the beast upon one's forehead or upon one's hand. This is already in effect in a certain mode. Some decades ago your nation began a numbering system in which you all now participate, and without which you must forego certain social benefits. Such numbering systems have been in effect throughout the history of the world since numbers began.
In your age this becomes credit cards as well. It becomes a matter of banking, both domestic and international, and ultimately will work its way out that any who is found to possess currency or money forms of exchange will be suspect. Thus it is that we have long been advising that you put aside quantities of small units of exchange and prepare yourselves to be in a position to barter some of your energies, labor, ideas, services.
For the time is to come in your lifetimes when it may be against the laws of your country to have money in your possession, even as it was some years back illegal for you to own the precious metal gold. This is already in effect in some nations in your world today where certain portions of the population are not allowed to have and to handle coin of the realm.
VOICE: Is that like the welfare system?
SHEARIAM: That is one part of it. The mark of the beast, which is the 666, will mean that you cannot cash any negotiable instrument such as a benefit check or some such document without such identification upon your person.
VOICE: How does that lead to 666 being evil?
SHEARIAM: That requires an understanding of the numerology significance of the number 6.
ANOTHER: Could you give us some information on that?
SHEARIAM: Six represents the action resulting from man's consciousness as represented by the number 5. It represents the depths of which such consciousness can sink before it redeems itself in the number 7. In that triplicity is at the basis of the existence of your world, it takes the three 6's in order for this to occur.
When added together, the three 6's make 18, which reduces to 9, which is the end of the old cycle and the beginning of a new.
VOICE: You were speaking about hoarding precious metals, etc. ...
SHEARIAM: [Interrupting.] Not hoarding. No! You must not hoard! VOICE: Set aside, then. In one of my channelings I got that I should buy gold coins and keep them for a future date. Is that what you're talking about?
SHEARIAM: That is correct.
VOICE: It didn't make sense at the time it came through. I understand now.
SHEARIAM: Small bits of money can change hands without coming to the attention of the authorities. Your planet is moving towards totalitarianism, and as it shrinks due to technology, it soon will be subject to a central government, the seeds of which are even now planted.
VOICE: Does that mean that we will go into a centralized United Nations form of government for all governments, or does it mean that one government will take over the world?
SHEARIAM: Both, not simultaneously. At first, as you have now, there is a union of effort, but it will soon become apparent that the opposing factions must become alliances for the survival of man. Even the chiefs will soon recognize that killing off the “indians” will leave them with nothing to govern.
VOICE: Our elections now -- of the people who are running for president now -- will one of those on the ballot now be elected?
[Discussion of the possibility of a write-in.]
SHEARIAM: We believe at this time that your current president will be re-elected. He will not serve out his time. It behooves you to see that his second in command is the man you want to head your country during a time of difficult economic and social conditions.
VOICE: Is there a chance that this could be different -- that he not be elected?
SHEARIAM: There is always the chance, but that is a poor word. Consciousness makes the difference.
VOICE: Is it good for us to work on that consciousness, to change that, or to go with it?
SHEARIAM: One man does not make the difference. You need to clean out your Congress.
[Laughter and general agreement.]
VOICE: So the Anti-Christ, then, is that not a being, as they say it is, but more the situation?
SHEARIAM: That is correct. It is not a single personality.
VOICE: So the Anti-Christ, then, as is predicted, is already here at this time?
SHEARIAM: Yes. It has already begun to manifest, in cults in your country, as well as in your economic and social conditions.
KRISTINE: Can you give us some other things to prepare for? You've already mentioned, obviously, our changing consciousness and saving coins that will be needed later on. What about food storage and other kinds of preparations that we should prepare for?
SHEARIAM: It will be dangerous to have stored food, because those who have not will find it, and you may lose not only the food which you have stored, but all else.
VOICE: How long will this time period be going on, that that kind of situation runs?
SHEARIAM: Time depends on consciousness, as given before. It will last until man, individually, decides to take responsibility for his own life once more. The only way this can be offset is by individuals taking personal responsibility for themselves.
KRISTINE: There has been talk of a famine starting, even currently so in the Midwest and continuing for several years. Is that in fact true? Has that begun?
SHEARIAM: There has been famine abroad in the world every year of its existence in some form or another, and man has survived. If you allow fear to rule your lives, you encourage the prophecy to become more poignantly fulfilled.
ANOTHER: If we live in a world of illusion, then all of these things that we're afraid of are merely an illusion created by our perceptions.
SHEARIAM: That is correct.
CONTINUING: Then all we have to do is change what we would like to see, and think about that.
SHEARIAM: If enough people do it, you will make it so for all.
VOICE: Isn't that what we're working towards right now, though, with groups like this throughout the country, and throughout the world, actually?
SHEARIAM: Of course.
CONTINUING: But our numbers are so small.
SHEARIAM: That is true.
CONTINUING: They grow more every year.
SHEARIAM: Hopefully. Witness your own group in this room. There are many who have come and have not returned. The burden of personal responsibility becomes too heavy for some to bear, and there are always those who are willing to usurp that responsibility in order to gain personal ends.
VOICE: I'm not sure I understood what you meant.
SHEARIAM: There are always Moonies, Rajneeshees, Jones, etc.
VOICE: That's what's happened to our political system.
SHEARIAM: Exactly. People allowed certain portions of the populace to take charge of the political process by not voting. Now you are some decades down the road and suffering the consequences thereof.
VOICE: Yes, but how do you know whom to vote for? They're all crooks.
SHEARIAM: Because you have allowed that portion of the populace to grasp the power.
KRISTINE: But how do you encourage people to run in politics when they feel that it isn't worth their time, even though they're very well qualified -- maybe they're not appreciated, maybe the time and energy put out is not what they seem to get back. How can you encourage those quality people to run in our political system?
SHEARIAM: At this point in time, your nation has reached a point which might be said to be that point of no return. There comes a time in the course of events when things must go all the way. Thus it is that prophecy in this nation will be fulfilled by revolution and civil strife.
VOICE: Sounds like a good way to work things out.
[Comments.]
VOICE: Well, now, a lady named Barbara Hubbard, who is running Democratic platform for Vice President. There is considerable talk that she uses spiritual guidance, etc. Can you give us any information about her, how valid it is, how deserving she is of support, or anything more about her or any other candidate at this time?
SHEARIAM: We are not inclined to interfere in people's political beliefs or feelings. Our intent is to teach that which will take you out of this world of illusion and concern you with your immortality. At this point in time, as given before, it really is not that important what individual is elected to office, for the political force of your country is governed and controlled by people whose names you never hear.
KRISTINE: That sounds very defeatist, disillusioning. I want a word.
SHEARIAM: It is only the consequence of action already taken. Warning was given forty years ago, and it was ignored.
KRISTINE: What do you mean by that? Who gave the warning?
SHEARIAM: An authoress named Taylor Caldwell was given inspiration to write books. Because of persecution, she was unable to manifest knowledge given her as non-fiction. Thus she wrote fictional novels, but they were full of advice which was ignored. You were warned about built-in obsolescence; you were warned that direction industry was going on; you were warned about the monetary crisis that was building. And everyone went merrily upon their way. Now consequences must be served. It is what you do with your life individually that makes the difference. If you wish to have a new world, you make it your consciousness first.
VOICE: Can you help us to understand how we can show other people how to think differently -- like our families? I mean, how we can explain so that they don't think that we're completely crazy?
SHEARIAM: This is what is meant by the advice in your Bible "to witness." As you maintain self- mastery, as you make your life a living example of victorious living, manifestation cannot be denied. You must be aware that there is sufficient negative thought in the world today that will grasp the least faltering. Thus if you are to promote your way of life, the way of life which we teach ...
[Tape ran out.]
... and prove your rightness by being that rightness. Thus it is we say to you, if you would have peace in the world, you must first be peace.
VOICE: Well, that means we don't have to get too upset about the political situation. I'm glad to hear that.
SHEARIAM: This is what we are trying to convey to you. The more you become disturbed, the less control you have to exercise over your own lives. And exercise of mastery over your own life must come first. This world is transitory; your immortality is permanent.
VOICE:How do you go about getting self mastery? We've been through this before.
SHEARIAM: You learn to act and not react. You learn to stay calm, self-possessed, confident in your own belief, self-assured, impervious to attack. You build your life as a citadel of protection which cannot be destroyed.
VOICE: Wouldn't you become the first target for the strife then?
SHEARIAM: But if you have done your job well, the attack will be futile.
VOICE: Because we each create our own reality.
SHEARIAM: Correct.
VOICE:There is still something I'm not getting.How do you learn all that, though, if your beliefs seem to be against it?
SHEARIAM: You begin by observing your own activities. When you see yourself responding to certain situations in undesirable ways, you begin to ask yourself, "Why does that disturb me?" Do not blame that disturbance on outside impact. You react with disturbance. You do not need to choose that road. Just like learning to walk, you may fall, you may falter. But each time you pick yourself up, you go on, you have gained. Each time you refuse to be angry, each time you meet an attack with peace and love, you have gained. Enemies find it very difficult to sustain their attack when you look them in the eye and say, "I love you."
VOICE: Easier said than done, though.
SHEARIAM: We do not offer panaceas.
VOICE: Are the tapes by Jonathan Parker on "Pathway to the Universal Mind" good tapes for this purpose?
SHEARIAM: Any tape, any book, any lecture always will have a grain of truth to be sifted out. You have your own source, your intuitional guidance to direct you to that which will serve you best. Those tapes will serve one while not serving another.
VOICE: If it feels right to you, though, is that the one you should pursue?
SHEARIAM: Yes.
VOICE: Is there a possibility as we strive for our own perfection of closing out our concern for others and not having enough love for our fellow man?
SHEARIAM:That would not be moving towards perfection.You can refuse to respond with anger by responding with love, thus love becomes a shield and you become impervious to attack. Thus you do not give in to self-doubt, to fear, to negative emotions. But you do not lose your concern.
VOICE:So it all depends on how much time and effort you are willing to put into examining yourself and changing the ways you react.
SHEARIAM: Exactly.
KRISTINE: Do you advise using the Bach flower remedies to help some of these attitudes and emotions?
SHEARIAM: Yes. As with all things, when something does not work for one, that does not mean it will not work for someone else.
VOICE: You have to find what works for you.
SHEARIAM: Exactly.
VOICE: You spoke of negative thoughts. Could you explain a little bit more about the difference between negative and positive thoughts and attitudes? What are negative thoughts?
SHEARIAM:The main activity of human life on this planet should be circulation -- what comes in must go out or there is a blockage developed. Thus one must not hoard food or money. It is perfectly appropriate to provide within reason for the foreseeable future. But to hold anything, whether food, money, love -- anything -- is to establish a blockage in the circulatory system.
Envy, greed, lust, all those named in your Bible are negative emotions and cause blockages. When one realizes that universal supply is over-abundant, there is no need to be envious of what another has. For, if you make your demand upon the universal, there is all there that you need and more. Thus it is that you must not lust after what belongs to another. If you exercise self-mastery and you keep everything in circulation, you can do little more.
VOICE: What is this “circulation”?
SHEARIAM: If you have money come in, and it does not go out, you have caused a blockage. You should not have more in reserve than needed for the foreseeable future.
ANOTHER: Does that go for bank accounts and IRA accounts and stocks and bonds?
SHEARIAM: Yes, it does. If your investment is circulating that exchange power, then that is appropriate. But if you bury money in a can in the back yard, it is not being circulated. That is universal energy.
KRISTINE: That is like the parable of the talents.
SHEARIAM: That is exactly what I am speaking of. You cannot deny the world your love, your talents, your thoughts, your services. You must keep yourself in circulation, if you are to grow, if you are to enjoy a victorious life.
VOICE: So you need to trust yourself to provide for yourself.
SHEARIAM: Source will provide all that you need, if you will trust it to do so.
KRISTINE: Despite the various Earth changes that have been predicted regarding our political and monetary systems, if we attain self-mastery, or we work towards that, regardless of what happens in the outer, we won't be necessarily adversely affected by those outer changes. Is that what you were trying to say?
SHEARIAM: To some extent.
KRISTINE: We'll have a sense of protection from our Source?
SHEARIAM: You will be protected by Source inasmuch as your Source will place you where you need to be. You do not have to be in that state of attained mastery. You need only be working toward it. If you trust your Source, you will be taken where you need to be, to fulfill your destiny in this life span.
VOICE: You'll have a lot of lucky coincidences.
SHEARIAM: One might put it that way.
ANOTHER: That would be like the Law of Migration.
SHEARIAM: Yes.
KRISTINE: So that very possibly several of us in this room, when we're called upon, may very well been moving out of this area.
SHEARIAM: Yes.
VOICE: You say a lot has to do with being able to visualize this or that. What if you can't visualize?
SHEARIAM: Everyone can.
VOICE: I know that, but I still can't. [Laughter.]
SHEARIAM: You can get a piece of paper and paste a picture on it of what you want to visualize, and gaze at that picture.
VOICE: And I could turn around and not tell you what it looks like.
SHEARIAM: It does not matter that your subjective does not communicate with your objective.
VOICE: That's more to the point. How do you break that connection so that they do communicate?
SHEARIAM: You do not have to. It will happen as a result of growth. It cannot be forced without danger to yourself.
VOICE: I found that out.
ANOTHER: In other words, we can cut a picture out of a magazine or anything and look at it.
SHEARIAM: This is at the basis of the metaphysical belief in “treasure mapping”, but it is a viable method for manifesting what you wish. Source gets the message and provides. There is a spontaneous creativity to the Universal Being that cannot do other than create. And when you provide the mold, Universal Energy cannot help but fill the mold. You produce that mold with your thought, which is comprised of consciousness and volition. When you focus your awareness upon a particular target, you are exercising consciousness and volition as thought. Thought works upon spirit, which is comprised of life, quality, and quantity. And then the forces, with the twin minds, create the manifestation of the thing you have ideated.
VOICE: You have to be careful what you visualize, because you'll get what you ask for.
ANOTHER: You've been doing it all your life.
SHEARIAM: That's how you have the body that you have.
VOICE: And if thoughts that we do not desire come into our minds, we can simply say, "I do not give that thought life."
ANOTHER: But fear, etc., breaks the effectiveness of our desires of achieving what we desire.
SHEARIAM:Yes, because fear is stronger than desire.
ANOTHER: How do you get rid of fear? It seems to work with the imagination which you can't control it -- it's going by itself.
SHEARIAM: You can control your imagination. Your imagination is your image making faculty, and that is one of the purposes, one of the circulatory activities of man in this condition -- to learn to control his thoughts. Without control of thought, you could not exist comfortably in our realm. We would, in effect, have to imprison you.
[Remark: "We get a padded cell here to there." Laughter.]
SHEARIAM: That is truer than you think.
VOICE: But isn't it the imagination that will be doing the visualizing?
SHEARIAM: Yes, it is.
VOICE: But if you're not in contact with it, how can you control what your imagination is doing?
ANOTHER: You can't imagine it unless you're using your conscious mind. It has no effect unless you're using your conscious mind.
OTHER: Works fine when I'm asleep.
VOICE: But that's not your conscious mind.
OTHER: No, but if I want my conscious mind to control my thinking and my imagination -- it goes by itself when I'm asleep.
VOICE: That doesn't apply while you're sleeping.
[Further discussion.]
VOICE: There are astral projections, but your dream is done within, not without.
TONY: That's true, but it's not necessarily imagination.
VOICE: Then where would you be dreaming at?
TONY: You may be listening to your subjective self.
VOICE: But you've got to create the scenes that you're looking at in your dream.
KRISTINE: Maybe your Source is creating those for you.
ANOTHER: No, it's what you've taken in -- from the outside in.
KRISTINE: I wonder what Sheariam has to say about it.
VOICE: You've heard us bantering about what we don't know.
SHEARIAM:You have a reservoir of memory which contains all experience. This is called in your current language, which we use, the subjective mind. This reservoir of memories exists as symbols. When you are asleep, certain portions of your daily life which have not been worked upon adequately by the rational waking mind are worked upon by the subjective mind. But the subjective mind can only work upon them with the symbols which it already contains. It does not produce anything new. It provides the symbols and the sustenance for the rational mind to use in the image making effort. But the rational mind can also take images from outside of itself and does not have to use only what is in the subjective reservoir. The rational mind has the capacity to implant new ideas, new symbols into the subjective.
VOICE: Where would imagination be in that thought?
SHEARIAM: Your imagination is your image making faculty.
VOICE: That's in the subjective mind.
SHEARIAM: No, it is not. I just said, the rational mind operates the image making faculty.
ANOTHER: Now this reservoir that we have in the subjective mind, is that a reservoir from our past lives -- does that also dip into the reservoir of race consciousness and all that too?
SHEARIAM: But the subjective mind does not carry all of race consciousness in it. That lies in the subtle bodies and your Source.
VOICE: The subtle bodies around us?
SHEARIAM: Yes.
VOICE: As we recognize what is in our subjective mind, does that help us to clean it out, so to speak?
SHEARIAM: The rational mind, through the image making faculty, can remove from the subjective whatever is desirable to be removed.
VOICE: Could you expand on that a little bit, saying how it can be done?
SHEARIAM: You are constantly, in your current language, reprogramming the subjective mind. The subjective mind is similar to the computers that you now use. You can change those programs any time that you desire. But you must do so in certain ways. As life is lived in your modern society, you do not do enough of this reprogramming consciously. Metaphysicians have taught for years the process of reprogramming the subjective reservoir in order that you will produce in your life what you wish to produce. The subjective reservoir does provide substance for the manifestation of the events in your life.
VOICE: All right. Say, for instance, one had a fear of heights. Could you give a for- instance how we could deal with that, or remove that programming?
SHEARIAM: Yes. In the image making faculty this can be done. Be sure that the body is safe and secure -- that there is no chance that it can slip or slide off of its support. Then in the imagination with the rational mind you climb to a height, and then you jump off, knowing that you can fly. When you have done this a sufficient number of times, you begin to adopt in the subjective reservoir the concept that the invisible portion of yourself is not going to be damaged by heights. If that is then true, the physical body will not then be damaged by heights, and you will lose that magnetic attraction, that -- that vertigo -- experienced in high places. You reprogram the subjective by experiencing a successful descent from a high place.
VOICE: And you would do the same thing for a negative situation. Like, every time you walk into a certain situation and something happens, you always fly off the handle and get mad. In your imagination you would go through that until you pass the concept back that you don't want to react that way -- you want to react in a new way, which is whatever you put in there.
SHEARIAM: This is the process of cybernetics. Human cybernetics --you can program the subjective so that you can physically perform any feat you desire, if you are willing to give the time and effort to it.
VOICE: I was reading in a book once where it said, if you're, like, meditating and you're going through images in your mind. As you're in there you get a cloudy scene, a dark scene -- that would represent something. Now, how would you go about finding out what that represents before you, like, just change into sunshine.
SHEARIAM: Put a light on it, as you would light a darkened stage, so you see the actors upon the stage and the props. Turn up the volume so you can hear what is being said.
VOICE: Can you tune into, like, the emotional? I've noticed in a few dreams that whatever it's about has to do with whatever emotions I'm feeling at the time I'm dreaming about it.
SHEARIAM: This is the measure of the activity of the dream process -- to relieve the stress, to relieve the anxiety which builds up during the daily activity.
VOICE: Can't that be accomplished through self-hypnosis just as easily?
SHEARIAM: Of course it can if you have the time to spend on that.
ANOTHER: Sometimes I feel in this reading that all emotions are not useful.
SHEARIAM: Oh. That is not true.
VOICE: Good. I'm glad I asked. Could you expand on that a little bit? In the use of emotions, which ones are valid, which ones should we try to control more?
SHEARIAM: Examine the word "emotion." It is acting out what is within. Your total environment is a result of emotion. If you did not emote, you would not be alive in the Earth world, or ours, for that matter.
ANOTHER: Then you have a right to get angry at times?
SHEARIAM; There is just anger. Yes.
VOICE: Just be sure it's just.
ANOTHER: It just depends on how you react to it, though.
SHEARIAM: Anger must not result in abuse. When it does, it is not just anger. Anger must be an intense interest in a particular situation.
TONY: Sort of a passion?
SHEARIAM: Yes. A passion to re-adjust, to re-align, to re-establish harmony.
VOICE: So it's there so you can look at it and see where you're thinking wrong and change the thought.
SHEARIAM: Yes.
VOICE: Find out what it is that angers you, and why that whatever it is angers you, and keep thinking of that.
SHEARIAM: Anger is like a headache. It gives you a clue as to what is out of alignment in your life, as a headache is a clue to what is out of alignment in your physical organism.
ANOTHER: But the fact that you don't get angry very often doesn't mean that everything is in alignment either.
SHEARIAM: No. You are simply handling the mis-alignment differently.
VOICE: Is it helpful in some cases to get rid of the stress of anger, of true anger?
SHEARIAM: Just anger is not stressful. Misused anger is stressful.
VOICE: Or holding it back.
SHEARIAM: Repressed anger is destructive.
VOICE: I read a book by Emmett Fox. His premise is to change your thinking and use mental equivalents. It's a little book, but it has a lot of very good ways to become aware of what you're thinking.
SHEARIAM: Most of Emmett Fox's books were very small and extremely powerful.
[End of tape.]
VOICE: I'm having trouble forming the question I want to ask. In forming our own self- worth and self-confidence, is that something we should do internally, or should we learn to stand up and when people attack us verbally or whatever, should we ignore that, or is it important to stand up to some of that and speak for our rights and the rights of others, or turn the other cheek?
SHEARIAM: It must first come from within, as given before. You must know the strength of self- mastery. Then attack is met with smiles and with love. And the attacker is defeated by his own negative force as it bounces off of you.
VOICE: And when we do make a mistake, just simply acknowledge that we have, and apologize and let it go at that.
SHEARIAM: Yes. Apology, yes. do not say, "I am sorry." That is an affirmation that you are less than whole.
KRISTINE: What shall we affirm in that situation to another person instead of those words?
SHEARIAM: You may say, "I apologize for (whatever action or words may have been spoken)" and immediately take steps to make amends.
KRISTINE: Is that due to the fact that the words are preceded by "I am?"
SHEARIAM: Yes.
ANOTHER: You could use "I am sorry" when someone, a member of their family, dies or something like that?
[Comments to the contrary.]
SHEARIAM: "I feel your sorrow." You empathize. You can say, "I am empathetic." It is improper to say "I am sympathetic."
VOICE: How strong is the "I will" portion, versus the "I am" portion?
SHEARIAM: They are near equivalents. But there would be no "I will" without "I am."
KRISTINE: Isn't that handled somewhat in the Judith material?
SHEARIAM: That is of which they speak.
VOICE: In the ritual that I do in the mornings, I use four "I AM"s and four "I WILL"s and the scales. What is the purpose of that?
SHEARIAM: Whatever you have set. But remember that four establishes the foundation.
VOICE: What do you mean by "four establishes the foundation?"
SHEARIAM: Going back to numerology. If you are doing affirmations, it is more recommended that you do them in triplets rather than in quadruplets or quintuplets or whatever.
VOICE: It's chanted in the scale, and there are eight to a chord, and that's why the four "I AM"s and four "I WILL"s. Each one is said in one of the letters of the scale.
[Some discussion.]
SHEARIAM: Each major chord, each minor chord, is comprised of three tones in your eight-scale musical system. You would do better to use the harmony.
ANOTHER: So, for affirmations, if you want to do it in threes or multiples of threes.
SHEARIAM: Yes.
SAME: When we are doing affirmations, is there a certain period of time, again getting to numerology, so many nights or something like that that makes it more effective -- 40 days?
SHEARIAM: That depends upon what you are doing. It would take much too much to discuss that. But you are safe with nine -- three affirmations said three times.
VOICE: Going back to the taking care of fears, etc., establishing new ones, we do not need to go back and find out why we are afraid of falling or why we become angry in a certain situation -- just project the new pattern then?
SHEARIAM: Yes. It is not necessary. Mankind has provided himself with so many stumbling blocks by seeking the "why."
ANOTHER: We attended a lecture in which they regressed back to find out why somebody was allergic to wheat and things of this sort. That is not necessary then?
SHEARIAM: It is not necessary. Some people find it helpful.
VOICE: How about regression, then, just to explore past lives for better understanding of various reasons why you choose different lives, etc.? Rather than find out why you might have a problem in this life. Just for experience.
SHEARIAM: There is not a reason why you should not do so. Except that the time spent in the past is time taken from the present and the future.
VOICE: We also talked about controlling the thoughts. Is it all right, or do we get in trouble when our thoughts just meander while driving or sitting in the sunlight or doing something like that? Is it creative or beneficial?
SHEARIAM: Absolutely. Fantasy and day dreaming are two of the modes of creativity for human kind. And it is often in these reverie states that your Source is most able to contact you and give you ideas.
VOICE: Is it very important when we are -- when I, at any rate -- am trying to meditate to put all thoughts aside and try to create a blank or a vacuum, as it were?
SHEARIAM: This is an erroneous conception of meditation and is totally improper for the western man until he has developed certain other skills. Meditation for the westerner should be contemplation of higher forms of experience and expression.
ANOTHER: Such as? Maharishi teaches a form of meditation called Transcendental Meditation where you're given a mantra, and then you just let your thoughts free flow. It's very helpful.
SHEARIAM: That is one mode. But if you are to be directively creative, you should sound your own key note. You should establish in your consciousness and awareness what direction you would have your creativity move.
VOICE: Such as through an affirmation or word?
SHEARIAM: Yes.
VOICE: How do you know what your own key note is though?
SHEARIAM: Would you have better relationships, your key note is "love." If you would have greater supply, your key note is "abundance." If you would have greater protection, your key note is tuning into your Source.
ANOTHER: Then why couldn't you just make a mantra that gave you a balance of all of it?
SHEARIAM: You could.
VOICE: What would you do then, like just repeat the word "love" or whatever?
SHEARIAM: Yes.
KRISTINE: Or "Let there be love."
SHEARIAM:That is more creative.An affirmation beginning with "Let there be" is the most creative way human kind can express his desires, and the most certain mode of manifesting that which he wishes.
VOICE: So, very powerful, very strong for us would be "Let there be peace."
SHEARIAM: Yes. You do not now know how much the activity of peacefulness has moved to prevent cataclysm by virtue of songs that you sing and the declarations of "Let there be peace." You see only the negative manifestation as things appear to be now without knowing how they might have been otherwise.
KRISTINE: Is that along the same lines as some prophets and psychics have predicted Earth changes way in the past, and when they had not taken place at those given times, at some cases very specific, it's due to these changes in consciousness to some degree?
SHEARIAM: Yes.
KRISTINE: So change is really taking place on some scale?
["Yes."]
We're just not focusing in on that change?
["Yes."]
VOICE: I would like to ask a question about the difference between affirmation and prayer.
SHEARIAM:Prayers are a petition; affirmations are declarations.
VOICE: Is a petition effective?
SHEARIAM: It has its place.
VOICE: Could you explain a little bit more when we should use what? If we want abundance, should we petition for it?
SHEARIAM: No. You should affirm for it. You must demand your supply. There is abundance for all, and few make the demand, and thus have less of their own apportionment. Each individual has a certain capacity, even as a quart has 32 ounces. But most people who could have their full apportionment go around with half measure because they have accepted the conditioning that they should not demand. When you make demand upon Universal Supply, it is filled eagerly. Petitions are filled meagerly.
VOICE: How do you make a demand, then?
SHEARIAM: Let there be.
VOICE: But you have to believe it.
SHEARIAM: You have to accept it.
ANOTHER: Could you explain a little bit more about accepting it?
SHEARIAM: You may wish some condition in your life to be healed, and you say, "Let there be healing." but if you do not accept everything that goes with that healing, then the healing is not fulfilled.
KRISTINE: Are you saying, like, for instance, when a person is healed, there are certain other lifestyle changes that will come about because of that healing? Some people may not accept those changes?
SHEARIAM: Of course.
KRISTINE: So, then, the healing would be cancelled?
["Yes."]
ANOTHER: Is there the same thing with abundance? If we say, "Let there be abundance," does that mean that we may need to take a new job or do something else like this?
["Correct."]
Will it come?
SHEARIAM: It will come. Sometimes the form is rejected or not accepted. People are not always willing to make the changes necessary to receive that which they require or ask for.
KRISTINE: But we are striving for attunement and listening to our Source, then won't these -- we'll draw these positive things to us. We won't be rejecting them.
SHEARIAM: You may be hungry. You knock on your neighbor's door and say, "Share with me your food." And that then is shared. But you reject it because it is not to your palate, and you go hungry.
VOICE: We equate abundance with hard work -- working night and day, etc.
SHEARIAM: That is the conditioning you have accepted.
VOICE: In other words, we could do away with it, this is not necessary.
SHEARIAM: It is not necessary.
VOICE: We have also equated, I think, somewhat, abundance with evil, due to our Christian background. Is this correct?
SHEARIAM: In that you are unworthy of that much abundance. Yes. But remember, work, as the prophet said, is joy made manifest. If you are joyful in what you are doing, then you will give all of your effort to it, and thus be rewarded in the doing and the abundance of money or material reward that follows.
VOICE: And if we're not joyful in what we're doing, should we change, or should we change our thinking to find joy in it?
SHEARIAM: One or the other.
VOICE: Using the words "let there be," can you let there be healing for somebody else, or will they still have a right for rejection?
SHEARIAM: They will accept or reject, according to their consciousness.
VOICE: Then it's all right for us to ask that there can be healing for someone else?
SHEARIAM: You can go through your Higher Self, your higher Source, and ask on behalf of another. But you must not entertain disappointment when your prayer does not seem to be answered. You cannot demand of the Universal Supply for another. You can only demand your personal apportionment. There are some exceptions to this, the primary one being when someone comes to you and asks your intercession on their behalf.
VOICE: Like a healer?
["Yes."]
VOICE: Mostly it means, we have to learn our own lessons and responsibilities and allow others to do the same?
SHEARIAM: Yes. It's very difficult for mankind to keep his hands off of his neighbor's business.
VOICE: Is there a difference between just being in his business and having compassion for the neighbor?
SHEARIAM: Yes, there is a difference. But what you are preparing for is to live in the realm in which I live, where thought is reality. If you do not learn to restrain your activities and your thoughts, in our realm what you think is immediately so. Thus, control of your thought becomes imperative. Otherwise, upon transition, you must remain in custody of higher beings to protect you and everyone else. If you are to enjoy the freedom of your immortality, it is in this obstructed universe which you must learn to control your thoughts and restrain your activities.
VOICE: Why would someone be directed to go into your realm if they are not prepared, or would they just come back?
SHEARIAM: You have to be some place. VOICE: So why wouldn't they come back to Earth or some place of that caliber?
SHEARIAM: Because you may not be ready. Because there may not be a vehicle ready. Because circumstances may not be so arranged.
VOICE: So you're like a holding station or additional training...
SHEARIAM: All levels are. Even as in your existence in the Earth planet, you have many geographical locations in which to live. You have many focuses of awareness. So it is in our realm; but in our realm you do not have the obstruction that you experience in your realm. Some of our realm is physical. You’re invisible, but physical rays are a part of both realms. Nevertheless, you know that you can walk through your radio waves, etc. But at a higher or wider scope of existence in our realm, we can think ourselves into each other, and thus we have a more intimate mating and union than you have. Can you imagine the turmoil and confusion for someone who does not have control of his thoughts if he were given total freedom in our realm?
KRISTINE: I would say most people would not be ready.
SHEARIAM: Thus it is that we have hospitals, we have schools, we have areas of protection until the next incarnation or the next expression, whatever it may be for the entity.
VOICE: Can you read our thoughts in this room as easily as you would read them in your realm?
SHEARIAM: We must blot that out, if we are to communicate with you as we do.
ANOTHER: But if you choose to, you can?
SHEARIAM: Within certain limitations. It causes much confusion in the organism of our Channel.
SAME: In your realm, then, could someone make contact with someone in our realm?
SHEARIAM: All the time.
SAME: With good purpose?
SHEARIAM: With both purposes, good and bad. Do not be in the delusion that all is goodness and light here, for it is not.
VOICE: How, then, are we to know?
SHEARIAM: You have your systems of protection and guidance.
VOICE: Our intuitive levels?
SHEARIAM: What is now intuitive to you. Yes.
KRISTINE: And if we affirm that we desire guidance from the highest Source, or some other words, then that will be drawn to us?
SHEARIAM: Yes. It is always waiting and available and requires only your seeking.
VOICE: The Bible mentioned something about the tormented minds. Are those the people who are taken from their vessel under unusual circumstances and tried to return, or what is the origin of that?
SHEARIAM: As in your daily life, there are many motivations, many reasons behind events. So it is that there are also many sources for such discomforts. It has to do with your preparation for leaving this life and venturing into the unknown.
VOICE: Well, then, if someone were guilty of suicide, they have disrupted this, then they are the tormented mind -- is that what you're talking about?
SHEARIAM: Not always. In some instances, suicide is permitted as a means by which the contract can be cancelled.
ANOTHER: Isn't all death a form of suicide? We create our own reality; we must choose our death. That's basically what suicide is, isn't it? Choosing to die?
SHEARIAM: If you wish to put it into those semantics. Generally speaking, when people in the Earth realm use the word “suicide”, they are talking about a violent or untimely death. All death is not necessarily violent or untimely.
VOICE: No, but it's chosen.
SHEARIAM: Yes. Maybe not by the entity itself. Everything happens by choice at some level of existence.
VOICE: Those that are in a coma for months at the end of their lives, are they dealing with more lessons they need to learn here, or is it just a process of transition, or can you give us any insights on that?
SHEARIAM: Again, there are many circumstances. Every death is as unique as every birth. Very often the consciousness of the cellular structure lingers long after the in-dwelling entity departs. As your medical technology advances, that becomes more and more an event to be considered.
VOICE: Is there ever a time when it is appropriate to use the heart machines, the lungs, the electronic apparatus to keep the physical body alive?
SHEARIAM: When the physical vehicle can no longer operate as a physical vehicle for the spirit, it is time for it to be released.
VOICE: Isn't that a matter of judgment on when that time is?
SHEARIAM: When a physical vehicle lies prone upon a mattress, unable to serve any of its own natural functions, it no longer makes a contribution except that it gives the job to that one who takes care of it.
VOICE: In other words, it would be all right for us if we were in a circumstance where we had to make the decision for another, whether they were going to go on all this apparatus or all that, to say no. And if the physical vehicle were to survive, it will survive at any rate, and if not, that is fine.
SHEARIAM: That is right. If the in-dwelling entity has not left the physical vehicle, it will sustain the physical vehicle. Artificial means are totally unnecessary.
VOICE: Then if a person drowns, their entity is still within their body, and you can allow them to recover, and they'll live another 40 years.
SHEARIAM: The in-dwelling entity may not be within the body as you say, but may not have abandoned the body, will not have severed the connection.
VOICE: Is that the silver chord?
SHEARIAM: Yes.
ANOTHER: Where does the silver chord connect?
SHEARIAM: At the base in the rear of the skull.
VOICE: Does it connect, like, through a chakra, then?
SHEARIAM: Yes.
VOICE: Would that be the throat one?
SHEARIAM: No. It connects with the mid-brain -- the brow chakra.
VOICE: That's the pressure point you press to stop seizure.
ANOTHER: Mid-section of the brain -- a point halfway between the middle of the ear in the back is a pressure point, and that's used for shock and seizure. Is that the one you're talking about? [Tape ran out.]
SHEARIAM: ... to do that precisely. The connection of the chakras with the endocrine system or with anatomical parts is more a symbolic thing than an actuality, although there are the physical correspondences.
VOICE: How do we learn to do conscious out-of-body traveling?
SHEARIAM: Practice.
VOICE: But how?
[Laughter.]
ANOTHER: Haven't you got that down pat?
SHEARIAM: You might as well ask me to tell you how to digest your food.
[Laughter.]
VOICE: Which reminds me, we laugh and have fun at this -- is this all right?
SHEARIAM: Without laughter, life would lose its meaning.
ANOTHER: It also relaxes us so that we can ask questions we wouldn't normally ask you.
VOICE: You do not laugh.
SHEARIAM: I laugh. The Channel does not.
VOICE: Is that because it's difficult in connecting the energy?
ANSWER: Yes.
SHEARIAM: It would seem that it is time to draw this meeting to a close. Let us have your meditation.
VOICE: Let us thank you before the vacation for you and for us. We appreciate all you have done. We appreciate your allowing us to ask questions again and again until we begin to get a piece of it so that we understand. We appreciate it very much.
SHEARIAM: It is our privilege to serve you.
[Many "Thank you’s”.]
SHEARIAM: Now, if you are ready, relax your abdomens by breathing deeply. Allow any tension in your neck and shoulders to flow away from you ... And to stimulate the healing energy, I invite you now to place your hands approximately two or three inches apart, palms facing, and move them in a rotational manner, building up an energy between your palms ... If you cannot feel the energy, begin by placing your palms directly upon each other and rubbing them briskly, and then allow them to part gradually.
Now, breathe gently into that ball of energy forming between your hands ... And as you exhale your breath, realize that that is part of your own energy system. You are transmitting your emotions of love; your thoughts of healing go with your breath into that ball of energy between your hands. Now, this is not the Universal Energy. This ball of energy is actually comprised of some of your own auric field.
Now, by giving this field structure with your hands, you have caused some of your auric field to become condensed. You can now turn your palms upward and blow gently upon them, pushing that ball of energy into the center of your circle where all balls of energy then join together into one greater field of potentiality. And there it spins and sparkles and glows.
And as you continue to transmit your thoughts of healing, your feelings of love into that ball of energy, it grows greater and greater. It gains in potentiality. And as it grows it comes back to touch you at your toes, at your knees, at your hands, and at your forehead ... And as this energy touches you, you become balanced and attuned with each other in this room ... Accept this balancing. Accept the attunement ... You can feel this as the sides of your body come into attunement with each other, as your back feels straighter, and your head fits more easily on your shoulders ... Accept this healing energy into the internal organs of your body, so that all of the functions within your body become balanced and attuned.
Now, in that circulation is important, you accept this for yourself, and you return it to the center, by your thought, by your love. And the more you take in, the more you give back, the greater the potential. This is a miniature description of the act of creativity on the part of the Absolute as It sits in self-contemplation and circulates Itself through Itself, gaining greater and greater potential, actualizing Itself in multitudinous ways. As you participate in this circulation, you are actualizing the experience of the Absolute. And as the potential grows greater and greater, it grows strong enough to have more than enough for those present.
By announcing the names of those for whom you have concern, you offer an invitation for them to join you here in their consciousness.
[Many names mentioned.]
The healing field has gained so great a potential that even the invisibles come close to share the action. Expand your awareness; become aware of those who have joined you in the invisible... Some of you are even now being touched. Accept the love, accept the healing, and return it. Those whom you have called and have answered the call now partake of the healing potential. Transmit your thought of blessing to these who have come.
And now in this expanded awareness, you may also approach any member of the group and offer a blessing ... And as you bless one another, you establish ties which will persist across distance and time, whether you are together or not ... And now lift your hearts in thanks to the realms of the invisibles, to the angelic realms who have come to join you in this effort, and know that their thoughts of peace are being poured into this field of potential, that there shall be healing throughout your planet.
And as this field of potential is fed, so it grows enormous and moves away from this room, growing and growing so that it surrounds the entire planet. And it carries your love, your thoughts of peace empowered by the invisible realms.
Now, in this powerful moment, make that affirmation, "LET THERE BE PEACE."
[Repeated many times]
"LET THERE BE UNITY IN THE HEARTS OF ALL."
[Repeated three times.]
"LET THERE BE LOVE."
[Repeated three times.]
And so you have struck the key notes. Accept your blessing. Feel within yourselves the gratitude, the appreciation for the cooperation that you receive from on high. Establish within yourself the consciousness that peace is, unity is, love is. And where there is peace and unity and love, there is joy.
And now release your loved ones to return to their own consciousnesses, to return to their own affairs. And so I release you to your own affairs. I bless you all, and I give you my appreciation for allowing us this privilege to be with you. And so I bid you go in peace until we meet again.
[Many expressions of thanks.]
