WHERE WE DISCUSS THE TITLE OF THIS BLOG
Are you there?
Yes, we are here.
This is just our second post.
That is correct. This is our second post. Is there something specific you would like to talk about today?
Well, I thought we might talk about the title of this blog.
In what context?
In no context. Or, you know, in the context of our relationship.
How so?
I mean, well, I just thought it might be interesting for our readers to know why we chose that title.
I would think that is pretty obvious. You want to know if we are “there” or “here” or wherever, and you ask us that question as a way of finding us. And so you thought it might be a nice idea to give that phrase to the title of the blog.
Yes, that is true. That has always been my way of contacting you, although I don’t use it much now because you always seem to be around.
With the blog, we are communicating much more frequently, so that only makes sense. You find us much more accessible nowadays.
Maybe you could talk a bit about WHY I ask that question.
You’re the one who asks that question, so perhaps you should be answering the question about asking the question. Tell us, Richard, why DO you ask that question?
Well, I ask that question – ARE YOU THERE? – because sometimes in the beginning of our relationship, when I would find myself in a situation where I really needed some guidance, I wasn’t always sure I could summon you up or hear you or whatever. Even when I was doing Reiki or when I was meditating, I was never sure if you were there or not. So that is why I would ask ARE YOU THERE?
And we always answered you in the same way, did we not? When you would ask ARE YOU THERE? we always answered, YES, WE ARE HERE.
Well, sometimes you would say, YES, OF COURSE WE ARE HERE. WHERE ELSE WOULD WE BE?
We don’t recall that. Still, there is a seed of truth in that kind of response. We are here, always here, because in a sense, we cannot be someplace else. From where we are focused, there is only the HERE. Our presence is actually our attention fixed on you on the physical plane.
How do you mean?
In non-physical, there is really no HERE or THERE. Physical location is not really a thing since we are not physical beings. However, the counterpart of an earthly, physical location for us as non-incarnated beings is what you would think of as focus or attention. Where we put our attention is where we are, so to speak. And for us, now, in the present moment, our attention and our focus is always on you. So, ipso facto, we are always HERE, with you, whenever you need us.
I understand. But there have been times in the past when I have tried to call upon you and all I seemed to get was silence or white noise. Nothing. No response. And that sometimes made me think that perhaps you had abandoned me.
We would never abandon you.
I realize that now. But back in the day, when I first became conscious of your presence, I wasn’t always sure of that.
We would never abandon you because it is not in our nature. It is also not in the nature of the agreement we have with you to guide and assist you. Our agreement is firm and unbreakable. Sometimes it does happen that a guide or group of guides will have completed their mission with a given human person and by mutual agreement, they will move on. But in that case, there is always another guide to take their place. All human persons have a guide of one form or another. Everyone. That is just the way things are set up.
I see. So why is it then that sometimes in the past I was unable to contact you?
Because you are the channel. We are here, always, to assist you, but it is up to you to let our energy, our voice, into your awareness. The channel between you and us is like a tube of light. A flexible tube of light. It can be wide open or narrow and closed off. If you are experiencing, say, a state of anxiety or fear or any other form of lower vibrational emotional energy, that tube or channel tends to narrow itself. Does that make sense?
Yes. Go on.
A narrow tube makes communication between you and us more difficult. It would be comparable to not getting a very good television or radio signal. We’re here, always, just like a radio signal, but when you can’t hear us, it means you’re just having trouble tuning us in. When you are in a more joyful state of mind, your channel is more open and it is easier for you to pick up our communications. It’s actually pretty basic stuff.
Basic for you, maybe, but not always so obvious to us down here in these physical bodies.
We understand how that might be tricky and a little frustrating at times. But it is all a part of the journey, if we can say that without sounding glib. You see, your main purpose in life is to remember who you really are, which is an expansive being of light. You may think that this idea of who you really are contradicts what you believe about yourself, but we can assure you that you are not some miserable earth creature doing their best to stay alive until the Grim Reaper knocks on your door. That is not who you really are.
Sometimes it does feel a little like that.
Well, that is because you have forgotten who you are. That is how things work. You agree to forget who you really are before you incarnate in physical form, with the understanding that by exposing yourself to the diversity and contrast of the earthly plane, you will, eventually, remember who you really are, and in the process, help the Universe expand and grow. As this relates to your channeling, the more you remember and accept who you really are, the easier it is for you to channel our voice.
This is all pretty mind-blowing.
The further we go along this path together, the less mind-blowing it will seem. And just to add, simply because you cannot hear us in your head does not mean that we are not here or not communicating with you. You, Richard, are a very verbal person. You like words and respond easily to them. So, it was agreed between you and us that the spoken word would be our primary means of communication.
That makes sense to me.
But bear in mind that not all human persons relate to verbal communication in the same way. Some prefer images or feelings, which can be a very creative and exciting way to communicate with your guides. So, in future, if or when you cannot hear us, it might be good practice for you to attempt to “hear” us in other ways. Never hurts to try something new.
Thanks. I’ll keep that in mind. I think this might be a good place to stop for today. Do you agree?
Yes, we agree. Until later then.
Till later.
