MESSAGES FOR THE 21ST CENTURY


What do nonphysical entities want to tell us through their channels?

Just Who Do We Think We Are?

Richard Gentle Says...

"Whatever you may first think about receiving channeled information, it should not be dismissed without due consideration.


"The channeling I am referring to...comes from entities, often part of a 'collective,' who have much more expansive and knowledgeable experience of the universe beyond the confines of our perceived four dimensions - three of space and one of time.


"Whatever your views.., I would ask you to consider the message that is being delivered through their words.... At best, you will make use of the information in your own life; at worst, it will give you something to think about."

Greetings, Fellow Seekers!

If you are like me, you may be skeptical about information claimed to be channeled from "nonphysical entities" or an "extra-terrestrial collective!"


In following my initial passion for learning about reincarnation from the Edgar Cayce material almost 40 years ago, I tended to ignore anything about channeling. Cayce was not a "channeler" per se. I understood that he was able, under hypnosis, to access the Akashic Records, sometimes called The Book of Life. I devoured his story and the information in his "readings."


I had dabbled in reading the Seth material, which was supposedly channeled, but it didn't connect with me at the time. Years later, when Mike Dooley spoke about how much the Seth books had influenced his spiritual awakening, I began to give Seth more credibility. I loved Mike Dooley and others in the film, The Secret! The book, The Secret, became my "go-to" guide. I still benefit from The Secret phone app.


And I did know about A Course in Miracles that was said to be channeled, but I put that "on a shelf" in the back my mind to deal with at some other time.


I then became fascinated with Esther and Jerry Hicks and Esther's channeling of Abraham. The information from Abraham rang true to me, as if I were remembering it instead of just learning it. However, when teaching or writing about it, I conveniently left out the fact that Abraham was a "nonphysical collective." At first, at least.


My son and daughter recently introduced me to Bashar, channeled by Darryl Anka. I was amazed to find out that Anka has been channeling Bashar since 1983 and I had somehow missed learning about him.


And now it appears that channelers are becoming more and more prevalent. I am discovering at least five, and there are probably more, new people who channel nonphysical entities (whom I will investigate and write about at another time.)


So now, I realize that it is time for me to acknowledge channeling! I believe it's a pivotal time for the world to pay attention and be awakened to what the "higher frequency entities" are attempting to tell us through their channelers. In my way of thinking, the teachings are meant to help the Earth move into the expansion of spirituality in the Age of Aquarius, which Astrologers proclaim has begun.


When I found this little book by Richard Gentle, I felt it was a good way for me to begin to compare the channeled information, beginning with Seth, Abraham, and Bashar since Gentle has studied them for decades.


Below, I attempt to summarize these teachings, which by necessity will be extremely abbreviated. I include statements from Seth, Abraham, and Bashar. I hope that you will be inspired to continue your own search into channeling and the information that comes forth.


My understanding is that this information is what the channeled entities believe will help us grow and what they want us to understand about our lives as human beings on Earth.


Be well and enjoy your amazing life!

Sending my love,

Shari

Seth, Abraham, Bashar!


Richard Gentle has studied the channeled teachings of these three entities for many years:


  • Seth was channeled from the mid 1960s to 1980 by Jane Roberts who described Seth as "a discarnate entity." www.sethcenter.com


  • Abraham, a group of "nonphysical entities," has been channeled by Esther Hicks since 1987. www.abraham-hicks.com


  • Bashar, an "extra-terrestrial collective," has been channeled by Darryl Anka since 1983. www.bashar.org


Gentle writes that he believes they are "authentic sources of direct knowledge relating to our universe and existence." He finds that their individual messages never contradict each other (p. 13), and he believes that the information from the three entities "will help you along the path of personal growth, understanding, and overall creative expansion." (Introduction)

Gentle states:

  • Having both read and listened to their channeled information over many years, I believe there is no 'human' way to make up much of what is said, or fabricate the style in which it is delivered.


  • The often fast speed of delivery, with very little hesitation in answering the more complex questions from audience participants, is also beyond the capability of most humans who might be 'making things up'.


  • Modern-day physics discoveries (such as quantum physics) have authenticated some of the complex and scientific information given through the channels since the 1960s.


  • And finally, the knowledge and advice given by these entities have greatly enhanced the lives of those who have worked with the material.

Teachings from Seth, Abraham, and Bashar


We are Vibrational Beings


Gentle writes,

  • According to Abraham (and even perhaps now, science) everything in the universe has vibrational frequency. Every individual on our planet Earth is in a constant state of vibrational fluctuation.


  • Our channeled entities tell us that, in order to experience something, we have to be in vibrational alignment to that which we desire to experience or wish to receive. (p. 10)


Bashar: "You cannot perceive of what you are not the vibration of." (p. 11)


Abraham: "You cannot want something that you don't have, and be a vibrational match to it. You have to feel as if you already have what you want--and then you can have it." (p. 27)


Gentle explains that

  • an important thing to know about vibrational frequency is mentioned constantly and consistently by our channeled entities:


  • "You can only attract into your experience something that resonates with your own vibrational frequency." (p. 16)



We All Experience Different Versions of Reality


Gentle states that

  • we are informed by the channeled collectives that...our vibrational frequency will only show us the version of the Earth that resonates with us. (p. 3)


Bashar: "Everyone is a completely different parallel universe to each other... All lives are simultaneous but separated in frequency." (p. 5)


Gentle gives us metaphor:

  • Think of stations on the radio, with each station broadcasting on a different frequency, but all stations are playing simultaneously. Listeners are able to hear only the station to which their radio is tuned.


  • The entities describe our experiences on Earth as similar to radio connections.


  • Two people, both apparently standing next to each other on the Earth, are actually experiencing different versions of planetary reality, at their own vibrational frequency. (p. 3)


Bashar: "What is 'going on' is only going on in your reality. Let me be very clear. When we talked about each of you having your own reality, this was not a metaphor. We mean it literally, physically. You are each your own discrete, distinct parallel universe; completely and totally different!" (p. 5)



Your Vibration Attracts Your Experiences


Summarizing teachings from Seth, Abraham, and Bashar, Gentle states, "I can give you...the answer to everything you need to live a more fulfilling, worthwhile and abundant life - no lengthy book or expensive workshop required:



  • Your emotional thoughts and feelings create all of the personal physical experience that you witness throughout your existence.


  • The combination of your most frequent thoughts and feelings produce your vibrational energy frequency.


  • Your vibrational frequency emanates from you and this is what attracts all of your life experiences to you. (p. 11)


Abraham: "Thought is vibration and law of attraction brings more thought to it." (p. 11)


Seth: "Your 'feeling-tones' are your emotional attitudes toward yourself and life in general, and these generally govern the large areas of experience." (p. 11)


Your Personal Beliefs Create Your Reality


Gentle informs us that

  • our events, our lives, our experiences, are caused by our present beliefs.
  • To change our lives, we must change our beliefs. (p. 23)


Abraham: "A belief is a habit of thought. If you are not happy with your life, you have to shift beliefs before life can change. You can change your beliefs and your attitude about yourself, your situation, and your life by choosing thoughts that make you happy." (p. 36)


Seth: "You cannot separate your beliefs about reality from the reality that you experience. That is, your beliefs about reality form it. Your ideas about what is possible and what is not possible are reflected in all areas." (p. 30)



We Can Raise Our Vibration


Gentle explains

  • if you want to change something "out there," you can only do it from "within." (p. 15)


Seth: "If you do not like your experience, then you must change the nature of your conscious thoughts and expectations." (p. 17)


Abraham: "Make a decision to look for the best-feeling aspects of whatever you must give your attention to - and your life will become one of increasingly good-feeling aspects."


"You must 'feel good' to manifest what you want. The key is, you have to find ways of improving the way you feel from right where you stand before things can begin to change. (p. 18)


"A practiced thought is a practiced vibration.... Start to practice a new feeling and create a new helpful belief." (p. 30)


Bashar: "Follow your passion. If you always act on everything that excites you, with zero expectation as to what the outcome ought to be, you will be walking the optimal path - no matter how it looks. It's about aligning with the vibration of who you actually are." (p. 32)


Your Point of Power is Now


Seth: "Your point of power is in the present." You can only take action to change anything in your current moment of 'now'--your present. (pp. 23,24)


"Your world is formed in faithful replica of your own thoughts... If you think positive suggestions to yourself about a situation you send telepathic ammunition for positive use. You must learn to erase a negative thought or picture by replacing it with its opposite."


"It does not do to repress negative thoughts, such as fears, angers, or resentment. They should be recognized, faced and replaced." (p. 51)


From Shari:

  • It is our regularly practiced thoughts that "color" our experience of personal reality. Changing your practiced conscious thoughts and expectations now will change your future reality.


  • You can't change your past, but in the present, the NOW, your thoughts and beliefs will affect your future, which can either remain pretty much the same or become better and better depending on your thinking.


  • Positive affirmations repeated daily will plant mental seeds for thought that will help change your beliefs and, therefore, your life, for the better.



What is the Purpose of Our Lives on Earth?


Abraham: "You exist for the joy of the existence. A triad of intentions: freedom, growth, and joy - equal in their offering." (p. 47)


Bashar: "You are unconditionally supported by creation, so much so, that you are even allowed to believe that you are not unconditionally supported - that's how unconditionally supported you are!" (p. 48)


"The meaning of life is for you to give it meaning. But the meaning you give it ultimately determines what effect you get out of it. The effect you get out of it is totally based on how you define your reality." (p. 48)


Seth: "...you are participating at a level of existence in which you are learning how to transform the imaginative realm of probabilities into a more or less specific, physically experienced world." (p. 49)


"You will not progress individually or as a race until you realize that you form your own physical reality from your thoughts and feelings, and that you can manipulate matter through your mind because your mind creates it." (p. 49)

ALL THAT YOU SEE IS YOURSELF.

(From the Subtitle)

As I mentioned, this is merely a much abbreviated sample of the teachings of these three nonphysical entities that Gentle chose to highlight in his book. There is much more to learn from investigating the websites listed above and books that have been written about and by channelers. I will be introducing other channelers and their teachings in future emails.

My best wishes!

Just Who Do We Think We Are?

Shari Says...




I believe we are eternal spiritual beings who are currently living one of our many lives on Earth and who are the co-creators of our experiences through our thoughts, beliefs, and pre-birth planning.

Shari Harris

I am convinced that these are profound truths: 


  • our thoughts and beliefs influence the things and events of our lives,
  • we live many lives, we never die -- our consciousness continues on, and
  • in-between our lives, we rest, study, learn, and plan our purpose for our next life. 


For me, these ideas are "good news" and help to answer universal questions about why we are here.


I hope you will take what resonates with you and leave the rest. Shari
