Greetings once again to you, one and all. Speaking to you as One whom many
of you would consider to be aliens (for, we represent many beings of
different civilizations), it is our excitement today to discuss this very
term, alien, which is frequently used in your civilization, and how this
word influences your feelings, thoughts and actions.
Alien, as defined by you, means "of" or "from"; "a stranger, foreigner."
This term can apply to just about anyone out of your usual realm of
experience. And it is the word most often said to describe life forms which
are not from your planet Earth, or from a dimension you normally perceive.
Now, we are alien to you because you perceive us as different, strange,
coming from another place and do not know us. Most of you are not aware of
our existence because you have not been taught that we do exist, or because
you have been taught to close your imagination and mind from such
possibilities, or because fear prevents you from allowing your natural
curiosity to investigate us on your own.
Where does the fear originate? Mostly it comes from not fully knowing and
trusting your Selves, being ridiculed, fearing what is unknown, and from
fear generated by sightings or abduction stories, as if all beings aside
from you are harmful and a threat to your existence. True, there are a few
groups of negatively oriented beings who do not consider your feelings and
free will of importance. But there are thousands of other civilizations who
are not of that ilk, such as our Selves, who love you, respect you, enjoy
you, know you are part of our Selves, and learn so much from studying and
sharing what you have to teach us! The other side to this is - strictly
speaking for what has occured on planet Earth - you don't need us to tell
you that sometimes you are alien to yourselves, your own worst enemies, and
doing a good job treating one another as such without any exterior
intervention.
Several years ago, one man told us he was writing a book which he wanted to
entitle, "God Is An Alien." We immediately asked him what part of him Self
is alien to his Self, and to God? Naturally, this jarred him into a new way
of thinking about himself and his own relationship with God.
And, there was another subconscious part to his title which he was just
beginning come to the surface - that being of very ancient interactions with
beings who called themselves "the gods" and were worshipped as being "gods"
when they were, in fact, extraterrestrials - some acting with love, respect,
honoring your free will, and some others who did not. It is easy to see how
confusing the concept of God and alien has become. It spurred a love/hate,
trust/mistrust, good/evil, higher/lower relationship from early on - keeping
everyone in separation and at the mercy of what is thought to be more
divine. Do you know that you, and we, were ALL part of that story, even
though we each evolved through slightly different experiences? (For example,
we are no longer alien to our Selves and we are open and excited to meet
different life forms.)
Another prime example of how civilization on Earth feels about its Self came
from a friend who recently inquired, "Why is it that all of the instruments
seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?"
Indeed! Do you not feel that you are an intelligent life form, worthy enough
of recognition and exploration? You continue to separate yourselves from the
rest of the universe. It is little wonder you have become uncertain of who
you are and in what you should believe.
Where has this led? All of these thoughts and events are propelling you into
new ways of viewing your Selves and all of life. All of the old ideas of who
you are, what is God, what is an alien, what is the universe comprised of,
are all being reevaluated with the knowledge that YOU, through choices, are
creating your experiences.
Self-knowledge with self-respect are the most important and powerful gifts
you can give your Self. Without knowing who you are, you cannot trust your
Self in any situation; which, by the way, also applies to meeting a
different life form. And if you do not know and respect your Self, how do
you imagine another life form, from anywhere, will perceive and treat you?
Do you wish to continue to see your Self as an alien, or as someone you
know, love and trust? What about your Self is foreign or frightening? What
don't you embrace about your Self and your life right where you are? What
about you have you not yet examined or understood? Where do you keep arm's
distance from your Self, protecting your Self against what, and why? Knowing
your Self allows you to be at home with your Self, in charge of your choices
as they arise, and how you wish to experience your interactions, your life.
The truth is not just "out there." It is within you, it is everywhere, and
it has many layers.
Shake hands and introduce your Self to your Self: no longer being alien to
who YOU are. Dive in and begin a magnificent, respectful, powerful, deep,
honest relationship with your Self. Then you are ready to greet the rest of
life and decide for your Self what you will create, all together. It's not
called a universe - One verse - for nothing.
