Welcome to you and we thank you for coming. What we have to say will be especially for those who are present and for those who will read our words on our Internet. We have an awareness that there is a question that was requested to be asked by one who could not come and so if you will ask that question we will attend to that first.

Q; It’s about a tsunami on the East Coast. Is there going to be one or something similar to that?   If so when and where?   Any information about that type of occurrence on the East Coast of the United States?   

A: Indeed it will be. It is that which will be occurring further down than that which was asked about on your East Coast. It will be that which will include the coast below that which is called New York and it will be that which will be affect that which is the City of New York will be an earthquake that has to do with, that it will be related to the tsunami but the tsunami will occur on the coast below that which is the City of New York which was the concern of this individual and the timing for it is not set. It will be perhaps during the year of what you call in your way of measuring time 2007. So we have the awareness that this has been recorded and so this woman can be informed. It is not our intention to frighten anyone this kind of information is requested and given because we have said to all of you a number of times in this year that has passed that there will be much more in what you call earth changes and that which are called earth changes are a necessary releasement of what you call negative or non-creative energies or destructive energies that have been imprinted into your earth for 26,000 years give or take in your way of measuring time. All of this releasement must take place so that your earth can move, can ascend as you put it also in the same way that each of you have your earth changes. Your tsunamis, your floods, your earthquakes, your volcanic eruptions, etc. It is necessary for all of this to complete before that which is your year of 2012 in your linear experiencing of time. The reason that we chose to answer this individual’s question is because we wish to talk about that which is time a bit for you on this day. That which is time as you humans experience it is a space time continuum, a linear experience of time.

 You experience and are confined within the space time continuum. So that which is cosmic pulsating does not necessarily have a great deal to do with the way you experience time, but the way in which you experience time is appropriate for you in your human life experiencing. Your life experiences are mathematical equations of spirit from your soul that come into life experience, into the human life experience on your planet earth to achieve a certain purpose for a certain reason. Your goal is to finally result in self-realization for your soul. And so each life experience has purpose. If you were to experience them all at once it would be overwhelming and the reason for having them in a sequence would not be achieved. That is the bottom line reason for your many life experience, to achieve self-realization for your soul. Therefore, that which is your space time continuum is meaningful only on your planet earth. There were certain ancient civilizations, if you will, who had a sense of that which you would call more like to a cosmic pulsing and yet at the same time they were able to blend that which is the cosmic pulsing with your experiencing of the space time continuum and to foretell for you events that would take place in years to come. Since your 26,000 years are now over, it is that which is the cosmic pulsing will be the way in which you experience time from now on. And so if you have no sense of time in your present day, the passage of time, this is because you have begun to move outside those boundaries of the space time continuum. Now you have no sense that five minutes have past. It could have been a second or it could have been an hour and you have no sense of that. And if that is true for you, then that is for you to know that you have begun to move outside the boundaries and that is a way for you to know that your ascension process is underway because you are moving outside the limitations of the consciousness that you had when you were within the space time continuum or within the first, second and third dimensional realms. That which is the year of 2012 has been foretold to you as the end of the Mayan calendar which relates to a blending of  cosmic pulsing and the space time continuum. And so we will say to you that you can depend upon that to be an accurate date as far as foretelling is concerned for the mass consciousness, for the collective consciousness. We will also say to you that some of you have already moved, ascended into that which is the meaning of 2012. There are those on your planet at this time who still experience themselves in an earlier time frame and there are those on your planet who experience themselves as in 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 already. If you are experiencing as we have just described to you a sense of no time, a sense of not having a sense of the passage of a minute or the passage of a second, then you are likely to be somewhere beyond that which is called 2006 in your way of measuring time. Your way of measuring time is rapidly disappearing except for those who cling tenaciously to the old paradigm, to attempt to continue to experience themselves as living within the old paradigm. Those such as yourselves would be those who no longer live within the restriction or the confines of the old paradigm. So pay attention to how it is that you are beginning to experience time and do not fault yourselves if you find yourselves to be late at certain events or whatever or that you find it takes you longer to arrive at a destination than it has previously or you find that it takes you less time. We will continue to use that word because you are familiar with it. There is no other word to take its place at this time. (Laugh) If you find that it takes you less time to arrive at a particular destination then it has in past times, then this is for you to know that you are beginning to move and experience yourselves outside the limitations of your space time continuum. And this is a fact. This is not airy fairy new age stuff that we speak of. It is a truth and this is one of the ways for you to begin to discover and acknowledge and measure your own progress. If you are beginning to move outside the constraints of the time space continuum. So again, we will say pay attention. Any questions about this before we continue?   There are other things we wish to speak of.

Q: Are you saying that there are other non-earth civilizations that do not sense time?   

A: Indeed there are. There are other civilizations in other places. Are you speaking of other places?   Other places in your solar system or your galaxy or somewhere else in your universe. They do not experience time in the same way that you do on earth. Earth is the place in your universe of greatest density and it is the density that allows the greatest measure of discovery to take place through your life experiences. 

Q: Density of what?   

A: Density of form, density of your molecular structures. Yes, what you call matter, etc. It is the most dense place in your solar system and also your galaxy and also your universe. 

Q: Isn’t that pretty spacey?   (Laugh)

A: Indeed. 

Q: The earth is sort of an experimental station?   

A: In a sense it is. Let’s see how we can say this. As we have said to you many times, the need to use words makes it difficult for us to convey the multi dimensionality of meaning. So we will do the best that we can. You could call it perhaps something like this….you have been told that God is everything. There is nothing that is not God anywhere in any solar system, galaxy, universe. God is it. And each of you is a part of God. Each of you is God. And it is that God is perceived and rightly so as the original prime creator. And if you are Gods, then you are to exercise your ability to create also. To create from that which is un-manifest into manifested form. And so it is that you might say the primary grade or kindergarten for learning this how to create where that which becomes matter is dense. So that you can see it, feel it, touch it, hear it, etc. with your five senses that you have as dense humans in form. And so it is that those of you on the earth realm create from that which is un-manifest into density because then you can see it. Ah….it exists. You see?   And so it is that it is like school perhaps would be a way to say it, for discovering how to create. How to be Gods and to create. Is that clear or shall we attempt to find other words?   

Q: When you manifest something like that aren’t just merely accelerating time?   

A: It depends upon your intention and it depends upon your knowing, not just your beliefs because your beliefs are in your head and your knowing is in your whole self. At this particular time that which are the energies or the frequencies of the 4th dimension which relate to your 4th chakra, your heart chakra. That’s where your knowing is. Your head knowing is belief and you believe something but it isn’t necessarily so. And that brings us to intention which we which we wish to talk about also. Intention creates from that which is your knowing, not from that which is your head. And so when you are intending something, it is important to know. Your knowing must be in concert with your head or your intention will not materialize. And so it is that ah I intend to whatever. I intend to create a house and the house does not materialize. No matter how many of the steps that your pop psychology books will say do this and this and this and this and your intentions will materialize. Your intentions do not materialize because they are not in agreement with that which your heart tells you. Your heart knows. And your heart is in touch with or in connection to in a more conscious way to what you call your higher self or the 12th dimensional capstone of the pyramid, your crystal pyramid that you are, metaphorically speaking. And so it is that this is why intentions do not work for most of you very much of the time because your intentions are not the intentions of the God self within you, the God knowing within you. It doesn’t matter whether it is here or here or inside or outside or whatever because there is no such thing as space either. And so your intentions must agree with your higher self intention in order for you to manifest that which you think you intend to manifest. Did we say that with clarity?   

Q: Well yes. What you are saying is you can only manifest that which was intended to be from your higher self. You can’t intend to manifest something say I want to manifest xyz or whatever it is. And then do it. It has to come through your higher self in order to do it. In other words you can’t just think something into being. 

A: Yes. You can not say ah I intend to manifest a house and it is higher self is saying, ah, well you can try, but higher self’s intention is for you to stay put because we have an intention for you to be in another location in a certain period of time as you experience time. So, is that clear then?   

Q: Yea, that is clear but there is no formula to do it with. 

A: That is exactly true. The formulas that you hear others recite do this and this and this and it will take place. That is not the way it works. The intentions of your higher self work through what you call your intuition. Or your heart or whatever. And so it is for each of you to be in what you would call the state of openness so that you can receive with clarity hear or see or all of the above what your higher self intends and then your head can become involved and bring it into manifest form. We wish for you all to have this understanding because many times you feel very discouraged or disappointed if what you think your intention is does not materialize. The reason it does not materialize is because it is colored by your perceptions, it is colored by your mis-perceptions, etc. because it is moving through this programming that is in this computer and when it is moving through the programming in your computer (brain) if your whole releasement has not yet occurred, then it is that the whole process is skewed. Is that clear?   

Q: What is this whole releasement?    I don’t understand that. 

A: The releasement of that which has been stored in your cellular memory bank for approximately 26,000 years. That which is happening on your planet at this time, that is perceived by you as chaos. Each of you has an internal chaos also to be released. 

Q: Is this an emotional release?   I perceive it as being an emotional release. The reason that I have emotional attachment to things and I am here trying to release them. 

A: It is experienced as feeling. The emotional component of your energy system is a generator.  It generates your feelings. And your feelings are energy in movement. So the generator generates these feelings which are energy in movement and they erupt as a volcanic eruption, a flood of tears, as a violent earthquake within for instance. You describe sometimes having turmoil in your solar plexus. Whatever you are experiencing is appropriate for whatever is being released. Your earth changes are examples for you to know what is taking place in YOU. Because your earth is a living organism in the same way that each of you is a living organism. You are life forms in an earth space suit. And so it is that which is residue from another life experience is still in you. It is in your cellular memory bank, not just in your physical, but your whole multidimensional being. And your whole multidimensional being is connected to itself. This gives us an opportunity once more to say to you, perceive yourselves as a multidimensional unified energy system rather than a physical body, an emotional body, a mental body, etc. because that implies spare parts needing to reconnect. A unified energy system informs you that you are already whole and connected in all your parts. You may not be consciously aware and yet you are. And so your cellular memory bank occupies your entire energy system. And everything that you have ever been is stored. A word that you use in your realm and in your old vocabulary is Akashic records. The Akashic records are in your energy system. YOUR Akashic records!   Everything you have ever been is written. Metaphorically speaking in your memory bank, in your cellular memory bank. And that which was non-creative, not wrong because there is no such thing as right or wrong, that which was perceived as non-creative or destructive in some way is there also. And those are energetic imprints now must be released before you move fully in full conscious awareness of the totality of your being into the new time what you call a new age. The new time already exists and the energies of the new time 4th dimension, 5th dimension are forcing these releasement. You could say it is a transmuting process leading to a transformation in order to allow you to live as life forms in the frequencies of 4th and 5th dimensions. 

Q: So we are going to make the Akashic records blank?   

A: Yes. 

Q: That’s the deal?

A: That’s the deal. That’s why your Mayan civilization says that 2012 is the end. And some of you are already at 2012. Again remember what we said to you about time. Some of you already are at 2012 and you are the way showers and the leaders for others into the new time into their releasement, etc. because as you receive and transmit the higher frequencies you have a part to play in the transmuting process of the collective. 

Q: You made a comment earlier about now or when we get to 2012 or so forth there will be people who will still wear a watch and want to function in a linear time frame. 

A: There will be. Until 2012 but that’s the end.

Q: At 2012, we are not going to start over again with the blank Akashic record but we are going to evolve into a higher dimensions more. 

A: When you are fully consciously aware in 4th and 5th dimension. It is almost as if they are one dimension. Because the interaction between 4 and 5 is necessary for each to fulfill its purpose. And so when that is the case then you are open to moving rapidly through 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 you see. You have moved into the void. 

Q: There will be no need for a record. The only reason we need a record would be for linear time. Right?   

A: That is correct. You are moving into the void and creating that which is new. That which has not yet been created. Yes. And you will find as the earth ascends also…remember when we began to speak to you we said that the earth, this dimension is the most dense in your solar system and your galaxy and your universe at this time because it’s the way for you to discover through touching, feeling, using what you call your five senses that you have created something. That something exists. You can touch it, you can see it, you can smell it, you can hear it. And as you move into 4 and 5 completely and are completely cleaned out of the last 26,000 years you are in the void and you have fulfilled your learning regarding that which is to bring something into manifested form from that which is un-manifest. That is what your time has been about. Because you are Gods it is for you to discover how it is that you are Gods and to create that which is new. So you move into the void and you begin to create that which has not yet been created on your earth. 

Q: When we know that, there will be no need to create a table or a chair…… 

A: You may create a table or a chair today and you may change the way it looks tomorrow because your creations will be instantaneous. When you are fully consciously aware by intention because you are in touch with, in concert with that which are your true intentions, the intentions of your higher self which you call your higher self. The 12th dimension of the individuated you from the whole. 

Q: How are those that have not reached the void….how do they perceive those that have gone through the void and are on the new path?   

A: They will not perceive them. They will not be perceptible. They will be imperceptible. Many of them will have departed the planet. When it is over, in 2012 and linear time is over the population on your planet will be a fraction of its present size. But remember that time is not experienced then when everyone who remains has reached 2012. Because there are those on your planet at this time who have already vibrational, energetically are at 2012.

Q: We ourselves cannot perceive them?   

A: Yes you perceive them. Such as yourselves would perceive them because you have already moved beyond 2006 in linear time. It is a difficult concept and we are attempting to find words to explain it with as much clarity as we can. And so, so listen with your heart in order to apprehend and comprehend what we are truly saying to you, each of you. Because it is important for you now to begin to get this. 

Q: We have to think it. We are looking for something to DO. 

A: There isn’t anything for you to DO and that’s an important thing to remember because those of you on your planet at this time have been accustomed to DOING. This is BEING. 

Q: Yea, well how do we learn to be?   

A: Just by relaxing and allowing it to happen. And paying attention to the shifts as they are occurring in you. You have many shifts that have already occurred in you. 

Q: Well yea like all the karma from me in the 26,000 years, the Akashic record. If you don’t care about that, you know, this is not bothering you anymore. How do you experience the new?   

A: But it does bother you. It doesn’t bother this you but it bothers this you because it must all be released so that you are truly experiencing that which is the void. If you are experiencing the void with some apprehension because it is very different from what you have known for 26,000, then this is a clue for you that you are beginning to have a sense that it is a void. 

Q: Not apprehension, but anticipation. 

A: Excellent. Excellent. You don’t do anything. That’s the kicker. That is difficult for those of you in human life experience to get. You don’t do anything. You allow the experience that you are moving through to take place. When you feel like crying you cry. When you feel like yelling or jumping up and down you yell or jump up and down. When you feel as if you are a volcano about to erupt you allow that. It doesn’t mean that you destroy other people but it means that you allow your own earth changes to take place without judgment and without guilt. And you bless them. Because they represent that you’re clearing. Remember your emotional component of your whole energy system is multidimensional so it’s already in touch with the multidimensional you. And when it is in touch with something that you experienced as a 7th dimensional Atlantean that now is ready to be cleared, it will generate feelings, cause movement, energetic movement. Feelings are energy moving and your tradition has been when you have feelings to repress them or deny them or project them on another. Remember everything is energy so if you project your feelings onto another, that one will receive and show you what YOUR feelings are. You call that mirroring, Mirroring is a great deal more than what you think it to be. And you tend to judge that person. Well own it, it’s yours. So don’t judge yourself either and say ah, bless me because I am releasing. I am releasing and I don’t even to know the story of what I am releasing as long as the energy, a blocked energy is now in movement. That’s the trans-mutational process. But you don’t need to DO anything!  That belongs to the old paradigm. If you sat in a cave for the rest of your life and did nothing it might be the best thing you could possibly do. For YOU that which is for you to do is to write of every experience that you have and then others can read and know ah,  this is my experience also. 

Q: How does creating your own reality fit into play in all of this?   

A: Your own reality is created. You create your own reality from within the framework of all that stuff that is stored in your personal Akashic records from that which is within you. That’s why everyone’s reality is different because everyone’s experience is different. Does that answer your question?   

Q: When we reach the void and are transformed, we will still be creating our own reality at that point also. 

A: You will be creating your own reality from the reception of higher frequencies. Your receptors will not be rusty or muddied up from your old perceptions because they have been released. 

Q: But the creation process still goes on?

A: It goes on in a higher way. It goes on with more harmony, beauty, etc. because you have released all your old perceptions. All your old perceptions are colored with all your old experiences of what you thought to be right and wrong. What you thought to be beautiful. What you thought to be this or that or whatever. And between now and 2012 on the calendars in the linear sense, you are very rapidly releasing. Bless your releasing. You humans have a tendency to fault your releasing. Then the antidote for that is to pay attention. You see it is all really very simple. It’s not necessarily easy but it is very simple. 

Q: It is not simple because we can’t consciously do anything about it. 

A: That’s why it is simple. All you need do is just be. Just be. 

Q: It is so hard to get out of the linear mode though?   

A: Yes. That’s why we wish to speak of this on this day. Your linear mode is already moving away, disintegrating. 

Q: Don’t humans cling to what is comfortable. Even if they don’t like it …it’s their comfort. 

A: Correct. That’s why each of you and your planet are in such chaos at this time because it is uprooting you all from your comfort zone. The chaos is a necessary chaos. Let us say this again. It is very important that you each get this. So if you can set aside your perceptions for a few moments and hear, you who has ears to hear, let him hear. The reason that most of you do not create successfully from your intentions is because your intentions come from thousands of years of accumulated perceptions about how things are supposed to be. What you term your higher self sees it from a higher perspective and has a different intention. Sometimes the intention is the same and it works. But the intention of the higher self is for your highest good. And very few know what is for their highest good because you think that which is your highest good is the rest of all your accumulated notions about what is right, what is wrong, etc. etc. So it is almost as if your computer must crash. No more ah, this is what I want, this is what I don’t want, this is what is heaven on earth, this is what is hell, etc. etc. you see. That’s what we mean when we speak of the void. And at this particular time your higher self knows exactly what is an appropriate intention for you in order to release the next perception that is right for releasement. So all you need do is JUST BE and PAY ATTENTION. It’s that simple. It’s not that easy but it is that simple. There is no complicated formula or steps that you must follow in order to reach that because any step that you can dream up at this particular time is also colored by your intentions that are an accumulation of thousands of years of life experience. You finished all that. And now you are ready to move to the next level…think of it perhaps in this way. Time is circular and you have moved all the way around the circle and so all of this is over. And now you are ready to move to the next circle and create it. And then the next circle and you create it. Perhaps it looks something like your toy, the Slinky. It might be a way to comprehend it. Each of you at this particular time is a set up. You are a set up. Your higher self is setting you up because you higher self is the part of you, the God part of you that is conscious, is consciously aware of itself as God. You are God as you sit in the chairs. But your higher self is the part of you that is God in consciousness and it knows what you are ripe for. What you are ready to release. And so when the set up that you are encounters a situation or person or whatever that evokes a response of feelings (your generator creates feelings) energy in motion, there is sadness, there is joy, you have as much trouble discovering how to be joyful as you do sad, angry, etc. So allow yourself to experience whatever you experience. This does not mean that you go murder somebody or that you destroy with your anger, it means that you allow it to be experienced because it is releasing something that is ready to go. 

Q: Okay. You mentioned before that there are beings that are trying to help us. These beings whether they be angelic or whatever then there must be some way to open communication so that they can help?   

A: They do help.  Because they insure that the set up that you are has somehow or other as unconscious as you all are in truth, that you will respond to what the set up is to the circumstance etc.  and participate in what has been set up.  They do.  

Q: But we don’t know?   

A: You don’t always have to know everything with this.  Again, JUST BE.  

Q: Am I becoming comfortable with the new idea?   

A: Yes.  And questioning all of your old ideas.  Does this belong to now or does this belong to then.  Is this a perception that no longer serves me.  And the angelic frequencies the angelic realm which is part of each of you also, each of you is part of that realm because each of you is part of everything that exits.  In flows through your inner hearing and you have a thought and you think…ah, I had a thought.  You are psychic enough to be receptive to that kind of messaging inflow frequency all the time.  So trust that and we beseech you to cease to be in denial.  

Q: I want to deal with this business of my terminology as manifestation.  We are talking about coming from our thinking.  I want to use a concrete example.  We have a piece of property that we purchased to resell and to receive the funds and to use that to do other things to keep our program going and feed or llamas and whatever we are doing.  Alright.  So we had decided that this lot need to sell on x date.  Well, the lot didn’t sell on x date.  Okay.  So, this is the place where when I decide well I am just going to give it to the universe.  My terminology is universe.  And I decide well I am taken care of, I’ll give it to the universe and whenever it happens it happens.  Is that a cop out?   Is that because I couldn’t manifest?   

A: That is not a cop out.  Because you chose a certain date and if that date is in concert with the date that is for your highest good, then it will manifest.  If that date is not in concert or in agreement or in synch with that with which is for your highest good, then it will not manifest.  If it is in concert it will, if it isn’t it won’t.  

Q: Alright…one of my perceptions is that these kinds of happenings or non-happenings or whatever are also happening in order to when I push the buttons or to release the stuff or to whatever it is that we need to do to raise our vibration or to move to that dimension.  

A: Yes.  Yes.  And that was for you to get out of your head.  

Q: Okay I want to sell that.  I’m ready.  (Laugh) 

A: Then have a conversation with your so-called higher self and say I am ready.  

Q: Very good.  That’s very good.  

A: And make sure that you are not attached to it in some way or attached to having your own way about it.  

Q: That’s the deal.  I was attached.  

A: And so wasn’t that a lovely lesson for you?   

Q: Don’t know yet.  I will take it as a lovely lesson if you say so.  

A: Yes.  Good it was.  

Q: Does that mean we should not try to manifest that which might not be in our highest good?   

A: It won’t work.  Try it because it will give you an opportunity to begin to open another channel.  And if it doesn’t work then have this conversation.  What old perception do I need to release in order for it to work.

Q: Can you give us any suggestions as to how we can focus on staying more in the now?   Because that’s where the power is.  

A: Yes.  There is nothing that exists except your now.  Your past exists in your linear time within the boundaries of the space time continuum.  And yet it’s all now.  Everything that you have ever been is now.  Not necessarily in story but in energetic patterning in your cellular structure.  Your 12 dimensional cellular structure.  Not just your physical cellular structure.  Your 12 dimensional cellular structure.  It’s all now.  It didn’t exist then.  It played out then within the boundaries of the continuum.  But the energetic equation of it, formula, pattern still exists.  Somewhere in the 12 dimensions of your root and the 12 dimensions of your second chakra and the 12 dimensions of your 3rd , 4th , 5th and beyond.  Because every one of your chakras is a 12 dimensional energy, part of your 12 dimensional energy system.  

Q: One of the things I found and you can help me on this….I found if I am thinking about …the only time I can end up having any sort of emotions is when I am thinking either about the past or the future.  If I am focused on what I am doing at the moment I’m not able to actually have any emotions interfere with what I am flowing with or being with at that point of time.  

A: Can you wrap your head around since your head is involved in this.  Can you wrap your head around that which you call the past is now or you wouldn’t be thinking of it, it wouldn’t be affecting, impacting you now.  So it is now.  It’s now.  That which is the future that you intend you picture, you create it here and when it actually is part of your now it is much grander than you could possibly conceive.  Or it is not so frightening or it is not so detrimental or destructive in some way.  Because you picture the future from your perceptions in the now.  So continue to picture the future as grander than you could possibly conceive at this time, particularly that with which you are presently involved.  Because that with which you are presently involved is not just 4th and 5th dimensional in its construct or in its effect.  It is multidimensional in its effect and result.  And so you cannot possibly conceive of it now, but you can play with that.

Q: Is there a meditation we can do to accelerate our understanding of what we just heard?   Or do we just have to let it soak.  

A: Let it soak.  (laugh) 

Q: Once she has given us the alphabet and then it is up to us to turn it into words to read the book.  

A: Correct.  

Q: I just wanted to ask if there was any other message that you feel like that’s appropriate to share with all of us at this time.  

A: If you will allow this to soak in, you will see that you are at the edge of the precipice.  The void confronts you.  So it is.  So it is.  Please take a very deep breath, deep breath and as you exhale let a releasement that you are ripe for at this time move from your consciousness and experience yourselves as empty.  Empty.  Empty.  Perhaps you can even have a sensation of activity in the synapses in your brain.  As they begin to wind up unto themselves.  Relax.  Because you are in density you are the most important part of your 12 dimensional energy system at this time and all 12 dimensions of you including the consciously aware God in your capstone are focused upon the you that you perceive yourself to be at this time.  So surrender to the greater you.  To the great you.  And it shall all unfold as it is meant to do and to be.  So be it.
