Now this is where we come to what we have taken up as an ‘issue’ several times. The ‘I am better’ attitude! In a way aren’t you really being selfish? Aren’t you behaving in a manner that makes you comfortable? Are you behaving in a manner, which makes her comfortable? And isn’t this done by all? And that’s natural because whose light is being emitted to travel? Your own! Who gets it back? You do! So really there is only one person in the world and that is you! You have to think only of you! And that’s what you all do! But when this becomes apparent in another, you turn around and say that’s being selfish. In a sense every single embodied soul is selfish; and may we remind you of what we had said a long tome ago… be Self centred. Not self-ish. Center your energies; focus them upon Self, the whole self that you are at all levels of being: be Self centered. But selfish means you are being somewhat like self! He is being childish; he is not a child, but he is behaving like one! So if you are being selfish, you are not self, you are only trying to behave like one! And so comes what my son loves to call the ‘holier than thou’ attitude. But little one, someone is holier than thou in some aspect and you in another. That’s all.
Would you all accept large amounts of bribe in order to do something that you consider wrong? You wouldn’t. Someone who did would certainly be judged by you. Now your child is in great danger, you think in a matter of moments the child will die; you have no money, not even for a tiny medicine. Someone offers to save your child’s life if you did something you consider wrong. Would you now do it? (The group says yes.) Only the price was higher wasn’t it? Bribe was the same. This person accepted a certain amount; you accepted a higher amount of your child’s life. Same situation: who is better? Where is the judgment? Is it right to take this bribe when life is at stake; does that make it right? It makes it right in your pattern of thinking and belief because now you have a point to justify it with. But when you see someone accepting a bribe readily, in your reality there is no justification and so you condemn. You see how you are being self-ish? The self knows that though I believe something is wrong (and that’s only your belief; we are not condemning bribes or bribe takers) they are only doing what they consider not wrong. But have you ever taken the time to sit back, enlarge the situation, and question yourself about how you would behave? Would it be any different? Is there truly justification or is it only an attitude? So don’t be self-ish.
Are there other ways of being selfish where the speed of your light decreases? Sometimes you are angry with someone. You know that the person needs help; you also know that you are in a position to help, but you are angry. What justification do you give yourself for not helping? I don’t have the time right now…this person will help you better than I can…true? Selfish.
Why do we use the word self-ish? Why are you like self here? The justifications you give yourself come from spiritual knowledge. So you become like it, never become it! Do you understand? And these moments keep changing the speed of your light, increasing and decreasing on your journey. Every moment that you are self (not selfish) instantly the speed increases. With this increase the energy grid immediately expands. Now the energy grid to once gain contract takes a very long time. That is beneficial to you. If in the next moment you become selfish, speed of light goes down, but this does not instantly cause the energy grid to contract; it remains in that expanded position for a long time. But if that speed of light is gradually diminished on a constant basis, it is not adequate speed to feed the energy grid structure in its expanded position and it will then start diminishing to a place where that slow speed can support the structure. But this does not happen instantly, so you see you are given time to acknowledge, and become aware of a self-ish moment, and look for a moment when Self can once again come to the fore! So you see, little one, you need not always be ‘good’ .You can permit yourself to be bad sometimes.
This has to be put into your pattern. It is a natural sequence of things; In fact my little ones you don’t know how you burden yourself with ‘good’. Yes, that is a burden you carry: "I must be good, I must be love I must be right…." What a heavy burden you carry. When all you need to do is to be centered in self and then you will never have to say ‘I must be… good…’ because you will Be. You Will BE. And when you ARE, there is no duality of good and bad, no duality of right and wrong. You just ARE. Haven’t you heard yourselves speak? I must be love! What does that really mean? That you are not love. If this child states I must be this chair I’m sitting on that means that you are not the chair; and so you have to be the chair! I must be love because I am not love at present. I must be right because I am wrong at present. SO WHAT? So what! What great significance in your light in finite ending, little one, what great significance does a few moments of anger play? Flow with it. You were angry. You spoke harsh words. So what? The guilt that you now feel is slowing down your speed of light far quicker than the anger ever did. Accept: I was angry; I spoke harshly, yes. So what? I am not guilty about it, but I want to study this whole situation again. Why did I lose my temper, what made me angry, where did I become selfish, why was I not centered in self? If you flow, without guilt, you will get these answers! Otherwise you are stuck in I lose my temper, I spoke badly, I am bad, I am not love…
Of course you are not LOVE. We know that. Of course you are not LOVE… you are not in that evolutionary stage. So you are not LOVE! So what? Before you became from animal to human you were not human were you? You did not hold something in your hand did you? You had no thumb. Of course you had no thumbs. You were not that that evolutionary stage to have a thumb! Did that make you feel guilty!? I have no thumb! I can’t hold. No… so now you get angry…just as like when you were an animal you couldn’t hold! You dropped. So now you get angry; another drop. You have one kind of thumb; you still don’t have another kind. Simple. Every time something happens just tell yourself I have no thumb! (Laughter)
Yes, you will laugh; you will realize how insignificant this burden is. What is this whole illusion that you are carrying upon your backs? I must be LOVE! You cannot; you cannot in this stage of evolution reach those vibrations of energy. Do we need to be clearer? Butwhat can you do then? You have to live a life that you know is right for you. Not what we tell you, and certainly not what another human being tells you because that always comes from ego. As soon as you tell another how to live, I am sorry, my little ones, the truth is ego is not separate from that. You are indeed telling them: "I know how to live, you don’t. Learn from me." But that’s natural too…! That’s not wrong… if it were wrong would ego been given to you? Is there anything wrong which has energy creation? Can it be wrong? You may have no use at all for this musical instrument (pointing to  Ernie’s keyboard). But does that make it wrong? … This child does have use of it.
Can you see how trivial issues are made into burdens by you and then you say life is so difficult. Life cannot be difficult; it is only light. How can it become more difficult or more easy? It is light. You make it so difficult. Because you don’t have a … (and the group responded): thumb! So let your thoughts, your words, your actions, your habits, your attitudes, your belief be yours. Because it is your light that circles and comes back to you .If in this circling you know from Self that this is not increasing the speed of my light, then change it! Not because it’s wrong but because it is now not agreeable with what you desire! Change it! At present the harshness is fine. When there comes a time when it makes you uncomfortable- change it. But when you are harsh, don’t sit and be guilty over it; flow with it. Acknowledge that once again here was a moment when I was harsh. Study the situation- why were you harsh? What made you say those words? Why did you judge? That is all. Find answers; be scientific. That is spirituality. Right and wrong is not spirituality. Its just illusion upon illusion. Of course you will have ego, that’s why it was given. It’s like saying here is a chair, but don’t sit upon it, stand till your legs hurt and you fall to the ground, but don’t sit upon it!
So often people have asked healers if they should take the medicines available- why have they been invented? For the Master Energies to consume? Who has invented them? Has it only come from a scientist’s mind? Nothing in the physical is not FIRST present in the non-physical. NOTHING. So it is given to you. For what purpose? To use … Yes. There are those who are so strong in their faith in healing, they don’t require it. And you do. So what? Is that wrong? Does it make you smaller, larger, fatter! (Laughter)
Come on, my beloved ones,… scientific mind. Don’t be burdened by all these illusions of your own making. Now you know you are at a stage where every time ego comes in with intensity you are uncomfortable! Why are you uncomfortable? The light has gone out, touched the object, and returned to you. When it has returned to you it has carried the energy of that person too; being sensitive you now know not at a conscious level, but at the light level, the hurt that has been caused. That makes you uncomfortable because SELF has acknowledged that SELF has been hurt! That is why you regret it! So you have reached a wonderful evolutionary stage where you are now beginning to study ego, which is a great advancement. I have no thumb...so I can’t hold because the thumb is required to grip, but if I can’t grip and I can’t hold, I am being hampered and hindered in many tasks that I can’t perform at the present. Ah… so I don’t have a thumb, but wait…I have two thumb-less hands and maybe I can lift with both my hands without the use of the thumb! Will my grip be tight enough? Yes it will. In fact when I lift like this I suddenly realize I can lift very strongly and I don’t need the thumb. So I have ego…and I have self! Why don’t I lift with both my hands instead of constantly saying… I have no thumb…I am not love, I must be love….You are thumb-less at this evolutionary stage. At this evolutionary stage no thumb is possible! It is a stage you are going through. Why? So that when these two hands(referring to Ego and Self) learn to work in unison, together in harmony, the two hands will have the strength of ONE .Then the thumb will grow on its own… you don’t have to run after love.
We have explained LOVE to you and you don’t even what is. You don’t even know what LOVE is…it is not compassion, it is not kindness, it is not affection, it is not attraction, and we have no words at present to make you understand; although there has been one discussion when we have explained to you the science of love.
So are you going to constantly belabor yourself about what you don’t have… when what you do have is lying unused? Study the ego in great detail. The more you understand your ego the more you will be SELF centered … not without ego, withego you will be centered in SELF. Is this clear? The moment you feel the need to tell someone "I am love, I do not work out of ego"… the moment you feel that need -check it. Why did ego need to make that statement? Do you need to tell me that you are sitting down? No. Why not? Because, it is obvious. So why do you need to say "I am love!" Because it is not obvious… "So let me tell you so that you know…"  It sounds so laughable, does it not! It is wonderful to see you all laugh at yourselves. Laugh at your selves more; you are such a bag of laughs! We have such fun at your expense! You wonderful, wonderful creations… do not let these burdens decrease your speed of light. The truth is you really have to do nothing. As long as you are completely comfortable in your thought, word and deed….you know that your light speed is increasing. That is all. You do not have to try and you do not have to feel small and worthless every time you make a mistake. We are giving you liberty to make mistakes everyday.As long as you study the mistake, flow with it, Grow with it…how beautiful.
When you first went to school and you wrote down all your numbers, did you in the very first attempt get all the numbers from 1to 10 all right? No, you wrote 2, 1, 10, 4… because they were scattered numbers that you knew, but you did not know the sequence; so... you made a mistake. And that kind lady corrected you and said ‘no, 1 comes before 2’ and you learnt that…ah 1 comes before 2 and so the next day you wrote 1,2,5,10,4… then she said ‘no 10 comes last’ and you said oh, 10 comes last and 1 comes before 2… so next time you wrote 1,2,5,3,10. It was after a long time that you knew it went 1,2,3…and so on; and did you feel guilty? No. Because when you are a child you are SELF; and SELF knows that when veils of forgetfulness are upon you the only way to learn is by making mistakes! So that We have a job! Otherwise what would I do with My mission…! (Loud Laughter from the group.)
God Bless You All.
