Session #92 – February 21, 1987
Gloria’s Circle

Present: Betty Welty, Eileen Horton, Ida Nevala, Jean Chisholm, Jeneeka, LaMar
and RetaMae Bell, Owen and Maxine Cramer, Myra Perala, Sidney Smither and Shira
Subotnick who left early.

During the study period Jean and Shira presented an interesting experiment (nitric acid
added to a globule of mercury) and a chart having to do with the wheel of Karma. Owen
led the guided meditation taken from Circle #84.

Sheariam: Good evening students and friends. (After responsive greetings, all
names were sung in unison three times.) You are becoming firmer in your sense of
Self. Are you following our suggestions of speaking aloud your name before
meditation? (Yes.) Have you found it to make a difference?

LaMar: I wish I knew. (You will know.)
Myra: Actually, I had forgotten to do that till I read the transcription which I
didn’t get to read until yesterday. But since then I’ve been doing it. I’ve been noticing
that I say my name to myself. When I’m alone, I just say it out loud, and that’s been
interesting to watch. Before meditations, though, I haven’t done it.

Sheariam: Very well. We shall move on to our topic for this evening.
Betty: Could I ask one question about the names before we go on, Sheariam? It’s
my understanding that our first name has one vibration in it, a meaning, and we
personally selected it more than the last name. Is it more effective for us just to use our
first name, our total name, all the names that we have? (The first name upon entering
meditation is sufficient.)

Sheariam: Tonight we enter discussion of your “twilight zone”, that for which
you seem to have waited so long. For the second go-round, if you will, that middle
cycle of the Karmic Wheel is that cycle through which what you call Astral Realm is
evolved.
As Evolution begins at Desire, with Evolution also being the building of
additional dimensions of experience, as the Emotional Body is developed, addictions
also develop. Addictions are dependency. They become “needs”. As you have been
given, “needs” are always provided. Thus it is that vice is provided for. You see
certain vices as being anti-social, and too pathetic to help, but if it is a “need” for
that individual, it is protected and perpetuated until sufficient awareness is
developed that the person can abandon that addiction in favor of a “want”. [Ed.
Needs are tools for developing wants.] Thus it is that we asked you to examine
yourselves in the light of “needs” vs. “wants”. Is what you “want, or think you
“want”, actually a “need”? Are your “needs” truly necessary?
As this began to develop, as Life makes its own Environment, Life must then
develop that dimension of experience which permits of certain things. In your
experiment this evening, you saw a very primary kind of Environment built. In the
beginnings of life on this planet, primary Environments were built which permitted
certain returns to certain conditions. As this cycle continued to evolve, the bodies
became more sophisticated, the Environment also became more sophisticated.
But the primitive Environment has not ceased to exist. In that Environment
still exist certain Life forms which have not been able to move beyond their initial
addiction. This Environment of which I speak is that arena of experience which you
call Astral Realm. It is a physical plane of existence but not spatial in certain
respects. Its geographical relationship to you is difficult to describe.
Whenever you sit in meditation, or at any time you experience an altered
state of consciousness, you are, in fact, moving into that realm of experience which
you call “astral”, which is, as you have been told, a misnomer. It is quite planetary.
It is existent at all times in the same space which you occupy. But if you think of
your existence in terms of width, height, and breadth, it would then be a fifth
dimension. Your fourth dimension is one which we, for lack of better words, must
call density or degree.
Now, this plane of existence which lies adjacent to your plane of physical
existence is accessible to you in your subtle bodies in altered states of consciousness
such as sleep, or meditation, or trance. In the early stages of life what would now
appear to be bizarre life forms became actualized out of potential, became addicted
to the returning to that experience which you call physical life. But as life forms
became more specialized, in the physical those addictive entity forms could not find
suitable physical vehicles and thus became trapped in that sub-existence. There they
must remain until certain other evolutionary consequences are accomplished, which
cannot be described to you.
As life forms complexified, various and sundry life forms developed, evolved
which did, indeed, combine human and animal form. Your myths and legends are
rooted in reality. In this so-called Astral Dimension, the subtle bodies of these life
forms remain trapped because there is now no vehicle for them to complete the
Wheel of Karma. They must remain at that level of Specialization until some other
things are accomplished.
In your efforts to evolve your own consciousnesses and move yourselves on to
higher realms, you further the Purposes which will ultimately enable these trapped
beings to be freed. Until that time, you are very likely to encounter such life forms
when you enter the “astral realm”. We must continue calling it that for lack of
better words.
Herein lies that danger for those of you who would attempt communication
with other realms of being. It is from this realm that those mischievous entities can
affect your environment in what you call poltergeist activity. It is this realm of being
which causes your Ouija boards to lie to you, which often brings you
misrepresentation in your automatic writing, and who do appear through channels
who are not properly protected.
You have been told there are many in this dimension of experience anxious
and eager to return to the physical experience, and will do so at any cost. Thus, we
must admonish that you attempt development of psychic experience with caution
and with care. This is why we tell you to try what we give you, to see if it is valid. We
do not expect that you take our words without testing them. So-called invisible
entities which say to you, “Do not test us”, are leading you down the garden path.
Everything that is true will withstand any test. The best test is always your own
ever-growing success.
Now, as one transitions out of the physical, one must pass through this zone.
It is into this zone that loved ones will come to meet one in transition, to protect, to
guide, and to see the individual safely delivered into our hands. This is the zone
which has given rise to the belief in Purgatory, that intermediate state of being in
which one is said to suffer for one’s sins.
For, indeed, that is what occurs. If one is addicted to physical life, then one
tends to want to stay close to that physical life. It is in this zone where that can
happen. After one passes through that zone, one is safe and secure from those
temptations, and physical life becomes very dim. As we have described to you
before, as one goes on vacation, the work place becomes a dimmed memory until it
must be returned to.
So it is with reincarnation. When one passes from this physical realm and
makes it safely through this other zone, the physical life becomes dimmed in
memory, for there are many other exciting interesting and intriguing experiences
which make this physical life of very little importance. It is only when the time
comes that one is to return to this physical life that it again becomes important.
But by that time, memory is very dim, and by the time the transition from
the other realms into the physical has occurred, there is no memory to speak of.
However, new-born infants carry dim memory of past experience which can be
capitalized upon by encouraging them to speak of it. In this way that prior
experience which has sponsored the current life span can make its contribution
more fully.
We have also spoken briefly about other exercises which you, as adults, may
experiment with, such as regression. That can be of assistance in recalling previous
physical lives. But, again, caution must be used, for as you enter an altered state of
consciousness, your subtle bodies are inevitably involved in that zone of existence
wherein these other physical life addicts remain.
This is how “possession” can occur. ”Possession” is a fact. It is not merely
“obsession” as some psychologists would have it. It is, indeed, a possession, but it
can do nothing but serve to shorten the life span of the physical vehicle. As you have
been given, the physical vehicle cannot subsist without the “psyche” which created
it.
Now, as you go to sleep at night, and your subtle bodies dissociate from the
physical form, you are at freedom in this zone. What you call “astral travel” is
adventuring into this zone. If you do so consciously, you have some control. You can
keep yourself close to physical planet earth. You can deny yourself interacting with
undesirable encounters. Most people do not do so consciously, but you have the
protection of your source group who do all that they can to protect you. But if it is
within your consciousness that you want terrifying experiences for one reason or
another, then you will be allowed to have them.
If it is within your consciousness to have bettering encounters, those
encounters in which you can learn, in which you can be healed, in which you can
find resolution to your problems, then this is what you are provided. This zone is not
necessarily to be avoided, but like any environment, some of its occupants are to be
avoided. There are those permanent occupants of this zone which you cannot help.
You must keep that in mind in spite of what the “goody-goodies” will tell you. You
cannot help someone who is “trapped”.
Now there are those who are merely confused and not trapped. So in those
encounters in that zone, if you address the entity encountered with a blessing and
the direction for them to “look for their light”, you are doing all you can do for
them. If they choose not to hear you, you cannot force them. Do not try. It is not
advisable for you to enter this zone willy-nilly in hopes of having a spectacular
experience, for, indeed, you may and there is danger for you in that zone.
If you keep your goals elevated to the highest actualization of your greatest
potential, you will not be inclined to seek spectacular experience. As you move in
pursuit of the elevated goals, you will come to that state of awareness that you will
see miracles on every hand. Some of you in this circle, following our teaching, have
already had such experiences. You find them to be quite mundane, except in
retrospect.
Each of you has for protection your source group. Each night, as you place
your head upon your pillow, thank your source group for its concern and guidance
for your day, and for its attention and protection to be provided through your sleep
hours. They are there to serve. They eagerly await your invitation. Remember that
this zone has been created by Life and has now become a part of this Life Cycle of
which you are a particular Specialization. Until the thrust of this overall cycle is
completed, that zone’s creation will not be ended. It exists. You cannot do away with
it. We must admonish you to take care in adventuring into it. This is sufficient for
now.

Owen: In the previous lesson, I think, it was mentioned that the Spirit-Physical
was the first stopping place during transition, and I’m wondering what is the relation
between “astral” and “Spirit-Physical”? (“Astral” is truly physical. It is as “Mental-
Physical” as you are without a physical vehicle. It is not “Spirit-Physical”. Spirit-
Physical is where you arrive when you make that transition through that zone
successfully.)

Jenika: If we wanted to have an astral projection experience, would we ask our
guides to give us a safe one before we went to bed, or how would we experience this?
(That is exactly my advice. Invite your guides, your protectors, to enhance your
experience and protect you from all danger.)

Owen: You mentioned that at the time there was a mixture of animal and human
form, that there was no suitable vehicle for them to come back to, so they are entrapped
in the astral. (Some are.) Would this be true, then, of animal species that become
extinct? (Yes.)

RetaMae: I wanted to ask you about the part of us or the subtle bodies that go to be
rejuvenated or re-energized. Do they go to the astral? (Yes. That is where that occurs.)
OK. Now when we ask our source group to take care of us as we go to sleep, then they
are protective right? (Yes.)
Sidney: I remember perhaps either you or Judith telling us at one time that when a
species is extinct, some sort of recycling process occurs. (That is also true.) So in other
words, there might be portions of an extinct species that are entrapped, therefore they
have nothing to come back to in order to complete their karmic cycle. Is that what you are
saying? (Correct.)

LaMar: I think I got a little bit confused here. I didn’t quite understand if our
friends and loved ones and guides were going to take us safely through this, how we
could wander into it “willy-nilly”. Were you referring to the danger of wandering” willy-
nilly” while we were still in the physical body? (Yes.)

Myra: So that when it comes time for our transition, and your subtle bodies are
going into the astral realm, we have to pass through this to greet the people. Do they
come in the astral realm to greet us? (Yes.) So really the Corridor of Transition then is
going through that. (Yes.) During that time, if the person does not realize that his physical
vehicle is now dead, and he doesn’t recognize that he’s dead, and his subtle bodies are
thinking that his vehicle is just asleep, perhaps confusion? This is when he stays in the
astral realm? (Yes.) So those who come to greet him can’t…. In studying this transition
stuff, we said that persons who don’t know they’ve died can’t be greeted by those who
come to greet them, and they just stay there until they get his attention? (Yes.)

Betty: Stupid question. How do we know when we’re dead? Is it like Gloria
when she had the thought, “Is my body dead?” (It has to do with the awareness of what
death actually is. If you know that death is not the end, that, indeed, you are moving
on to something more important, and you are willing to relinquish the physical body
and all of its addictions, then you have no problem in knowing that you are alive.
Only the body is dead.)

RetaMae: Does a lot of that have to do with our own personal concepts or belief
systems that we have while we are here in this physical? (At the personal level, it has
wholly to do with this.)
LaMar: A successful death actually is the amount of preparation you have put into
learning what it’s all about before the time comes. (In preparing for death, you should
be preparing for birth.)

Eileen: What would happen to a person who perhaps has led a good life, but
believes that when they die, that’s it, that there is nothing beyond that point? What
happens to them when they pass through that condition? (You find what you expect.)
Does that mean that they wouldn’t find anything? It would just be a void? (It will until
they look to the light. Remember that you are not cast off. So long as you wander
confused, your source group must still encircle you and continue to project light for
you to find your way. But you must find your own way.)
Myra: So the stubborn person who insists that there is nothing else, maybe will
just wander in darkness for a long time. (And so you have ghosts of centuries ago.) So
that seeking the light is the urgent thing for us to pray for. So that’s what we really should
pray for, the dead to seek the light.

Sidney: Are the ghosts considered to be part of the astral realm? (Yes.) But not all
astral realm members obviously are ghosts? (True.) And that brings up the question
about Ramtha. I recall that when we discussed that entity at some time in the past, you
indicated to us that it was from the astral realm. (True.) I don’t know what more there is
to ask. Is there anything you’d care to share with us about that at this time? (That is not
our purpose in this circle.)

LaMar: These people that are trapped in this astral realm from whom we are to be
wary, when their guides, and I presume then the family of loved ones or whoever came to
help them through that, have to just keep following them around until they eventually
wise up and look to the light? (Not necessarily. There are certain members of the
source group who must stay with the entity until the end of time, if necessary. But
that is not necessarily those who come to meet at death’s door.)

Betty: Do I understand that the main dangers in the astral realm are possession
and obsession? Is there danger of getting trapped there also? (It is unlikely that anyone
would be trapped there so long as the physical shell remains alive.) Now, it seemed
like in some of the lessons back when, that possession and obsession occurred when the
vibratory rate was such that allowed it? (Yes.) Is there any danger of us allowing it, or
how can we recognize that? (Again, I must admonish you. So long as you keep your
intention to actualize your creative potential, it is not likely that you will develop the
addictions which would result in negative experience. Negative experience usually
results for those who look for the spectacular, who want thrills, who are not satisfied
with daily experience. As I earlier stated, some of you have had mundane
experiences which in retrospect you realized were miraculous.)
Then as long as we go with a clear intent and ask guidance of our source group, it
shouldn’t be dangerous for us to go and meditate with others such as Shaman or
something like this, as long as the purpose of the thing is for our own highest evolvement,
and for the best. (So long as you invite your source group to protect you and guide
you, yes. That is where you are safe, in the bosom of your family.)

LaMar: At the beginning of your very enlightening dissertation this evening you
said that the word “astral” was a misnomer. Since name principally is a handle, I
wondered why the word “astral” was not suitable. Is it because of the meaning of the
word, that it does not suitably describe it? (Yes. The word “astral” refers to star, not
planet.)
Owen: Does that mean then that other places where life similar to human exists,
they may not have such a plane as the “astral plane”? (Some do, some do not. It
depends upon the evolution of Life on that planet.)

Maxine: You made a statement that we should actualize our greatest potential.
(That is every human’s individual obligation.) What I am wondering is how we can be
aware of what our greatest potential is. (What can you do that you are not doing?) I’ll
have to think about that.
Myra: But if we think about that, like every day, what can I do today that I
haven’t been doing that will actualize my greatest potential. We will come to see that
every day we can improve it if we choose to work toward that. (If you are so occupied,
then there is nothing in that zone which can touch you.)
Betty: This is dealing with the Soul’s Intention and the Ego’s mission? (Yes.)
Another question: Gloria has mentioned that she can see what she says appears
like dark leeches on the aura, and such as that. Other people say they see “dark energies”
around, holes in the auric field. Does this come from what we call the astral realm? Or
can you give me any more enlightenment on that? (Some of it does. Now, just because
these entities trapped in this zone do not have physical bodies, does not mean that
they are not capable of creating life and thought forms. Many times when you have
passed through an area which is occupied by the thought forms of these zone
occupants, your aura, your subtle bodies, may pick up such thought forms. These
may appear as leech-like black objects on the surface of the Vital Body. “Holes”, as
you call them, or weak spots in the auric field, result from the inside out. They result
from negative thoughts and negative emotions of your own.
Now, some that see these also say that smoking marijuana, etc., opens this up. Is it
marijuana that actually does it, or is it the…. (It’s the change in the Consciousness and
Volition relationship.) I do not comprehend what you’re saying. Could you?
(Consciousness and Volition work together to make Thought. The less Volition
involved with Consciousness, the less Self-sustaining Thought, the more addiction.)
And then, in turn, the more addiction, the less Volition they have. (A deadly cycle.)

Eileen: I believe that like attracts like. Right? (Yes.) You said this leech-like
negative thought form could be passed through. Do these negative thought forms attach
themselves to people of like thinking? (Until they have leeched all the strength they
can out of that body. Then they seek another body.) So it’s wise to clear up the
negative thinking. (Yes.)

Jenika: Sheariam, I have a question along that drug line. Is this why pot and
alcohol and excessive caffeine and maybe cigarettes, nicotine and toxins are bad for us?
Is it because they lessen our immediate clarity and also potential long range? (That is
part of the picture, yes. But remember also that occupants of that zone may have
already had those addictions develop and be seeking that one in the physical which
also has that susceptibility. As mentioned, like attracts like.)

Myra: Could you speak to the relationship between the addiction or the person
who is the addictive personality and what Jung called the “shadow”? (Not the same
thing at all. The “shadow” of Jung is the “other side”. Will you recall Silverthistle’s
lesson on turning the tube. In one direction the “shadow self” is inside the tube.
When the tube is turned, the “shadow self” would be on the outside. Still the same
“self”.) Jung says that we need to recognize the “shadow” and make friends with the
“shadow”, and then it ceases to be its enemy. (Is the inside of the tube the enemy of the
outside? Would there be an outside without the inside?)
Certainly not. My son commented the other day that he felt that new age thinking
was just fine except that it ignored the “shadow” of people, and that they didn’t allow for
the fact that people do have “shadow” parts. (It is unfortunate that the “shadow” is
always regarded undesirable, or negative, or that “dark angel”, for it is not. It
should not be ignored. It is not to be repressed.)
I want you to say some more. We do think to do that because there are parts of
our lives or our beings that we are rather unhappy with. Maybe we wish or dream of
doing things that are not really acceptable to the majority of people, and that appeared to
be the “shadow”. (But if you are to actualize your greatest potential, you must find
some acceptable avenue for those drives to be expressed.) And Jung says that we must
make friends with our “shadow” so that we can integrate it with our daily lives. Yes.
That is so.)

Jean: I’m not sure that I understand the “shadow”. Can you give us an example,
or spell it out a little bit more? (Who among you has not, at some time, wanted to
destroy something? Is that your “light self”? Each of you has desires within the
depths of you that cannot be expressed because they are culturally repulsive,
socially unacceptable, morally inappropriate, but they are there. They are part of
the Desire Body. And that Desire Body cannot be totally actualized in its greatest
potential if these desires are not expressed.)
Myra: So you wouldn’t say it’s a good thing to go out and destroy whatever you
secretly wished for. (Not at all.) But you make friends with that desire feeling and let it
express itself in a different way: chop wood, perhaps, or practice some other kind of
acceptable outlet for that. Is that what you’re saying? (That is correct. You will recall
that we have described that gonadal drive that is ordinarily in your condition
expressed as sexual activity, as being the same drive which produces the portraits of
the painter.) So this is manifesting the “shadow” in a positive and creative way. (Yes.)

Betty: Some of the first problem or task is to identify the emotion that we feel.
Then we need to get in touch with the “shadow”. (Yes, because culturally and
reincarnationally that part of you has been suppressed and repressed to the point
that you deny its existence.)
Now, another question about Thought. I’m still not clear as to Thought and
Thinking and all that. I have a lot of “monkey thoughts”. What I have been thinking
about is the possibility when we identify some of these feelings, some of these fears or
some of these angers, is it dangerous or is it unwise for us to go ahead and think through
them in our thoughts? If we want to pound something, to go ahead and pound it in our
thought, and take care of it that way, and then turn around and clear up the thought and
work with it positively or more in the light after that time? (That is one method. Who
among you is not aware of your atavistic drives? If you find yourself in a crowded
street corner, and that crowd turns ugly, who would deny that the very first instinct
is to be ugly also, before your civilization and culture and perhaps belief system, and
even genuine fear, causes you to depart from that theme. What is it about your
horror movie? What is it about violence that has created a generation of voyeurs? It
is that “shadow self” which for centuries in the West has been culturally repressed.
Eastern cultures have long recognized the need for this kind of expression, and have
developed cultural practices which allow the proper utilization of these drives. Tai
Chi is one.)

Betty: Shirley MacLaine, in her book “Don’t Fall Off The Mountain”, speaks of
the Thai people and how gentle they are, and yet they have this violent wrestling, a
national passion for wrestling which is extremely violent. Is that an expression of it?
(That is one mode.)
Eileen: Would you say karate is one? (That is another. Martial arts, highly
technical skills, give clear expression to those kinds of drives while also teaching the
ethics of using that power.)

Maxine: I have a feeling of wanting to avoid anything that is negative, that is
warlike. (That is because you repress those very drives within you that would enjoy
that kind of violence, because culturally you have been inhibited in that direction
for many, many centuries.)
Myra: I think that applies to a lot of people. (Yes.)
Maxine: So I need to learn to express them, but express them other than to actually
be violent. (Yes.)
LaMar: Learn karate. (Laughter.)

Owen: It would seem that through the passion of our country’s entertainment
providers for violence, I suppose because there is a passion for the customers who enjoy
this, are we not cultivating and enhancing a very undesirable aspect? (Quite so.)
Betty: I was just playing with the thought between Maxine and this that you see
so much violence, and I find it completely repulsive and everything on TV. Now is it
because we are repressing, or because we also have an awareness that this does not solve
anything? (It is because you have repressed it that it is repulsive to you. It is also
your culture that you continue to repress it. In your efforts at developing your
character, you must find some way in which this can be expressed. Some people do
it through work. Some people do it through hard, difficult exercise. Some people do
it through extreme mental activity, such as your chess players. There are many ways
to express this energy that are not destructive. Watching violence, whether in some
form of entertainment media, or in actual reality, is certainly not going to produce
proper expression of those drives on your part.)
It would be nice if there were some kind of meter that we could push and say
“You’re handling it right” or “you’re channeling it right”. (Your source group will
certainly advise you so if you allow them to do so.)

Sheariam: We must bring this to a conclusion. Settle yourselves for a meditation.
Let your bodies be at rest. Allow the breathing to be deep and rhythmical.
Allow all tension to drain out of the body.
Coming from the temple is a great golden shaft of light into the midst of your
circle. As you relax, that light will move toward you and into your physical body.
Feel it first light up the Vital Body, and then it lightens the Emotional Body, and
then the Desire Body, and finally the physical shell. As this occurs, your body begins
to emanate rays of green and red and purple, as your body acts like a prism for this
golden light.
So you build a huge sphere of varying colored lights, strengths, energies, and
the golden shaft continues to pour upon you from the temple. Feel the circulation of
those energies. Continue to allow your bodies to relax. Wherever you allow tension
to build within the body, you inhibit the circulation of the golden light. Let the light
come into you and go out from you. In physical response your body should be
tingling.
Wherever in that physical body there is congestion or pain, or misalignment,
or discomfort of any kind, allow that golden light to circulate through that part
more heavily. Allow it to concentrate in that area. Then allow it to concentrate in
the Desire, in the Emotional and in the Vital Bodies, that correspond with that
physical area. You do not need to direct it. Just simply let it happen, as you continue
to focus the energy in your physical.
This circulation, as it focuses in the subtle bodies, cleans up, makes clear, so
that the physical body can reflect that healing. Let it flow. Feel it flow.
Invite those whom you would wish to join you in this circle. (Names softly
spoken.) Whatever mental or emotional or material concern that you may have,
mentally put it in the shaft of golden light. When you have done so, in your
imaginations see them completely disappear, for indeed that is what happens.
Whatever that concern may have been, you will see the result reflected in your
material lives in the next few days.
Now this blessing has been meant for this circle and your loved ones only.
This is not something that you can send abroad. So I invite you now to send your
mental blessing around your globe, to bless the leaders of nations to have wisdom in
their decisions.
Now particularly bless those who lead your own nation, that they shall
exercise discretion and wisdom in their decisions. Bless your loved ones who have
come to join you and release them to themselves. Express your gratitude to your
own source group, and to the temple teachers and healers who have joined you.
Now I give you my own personal blessing and return you to yourselves. I bid
you, beloveds, go in great joy and peace.
