It’s only if you see life as being a problem, that you’ll be asking for a solution? (Unknown)

…when one has opened to the idea of this extra-terrestrial intelligence, explored the concept to their own satisfaction, then made contact with the Beings of Light of their choice then what? How relevant is this information to our moment by moment existence? Many have now realized that this Golden Age, this new millennium will not magically appear. Nor will we be `rescued' by our space brothers and sisters from our current predicament. Universal Law also prohibits interaction without our permission as we are beings of free will. Our evolutionary lesson is self empowerment - we become empowered by cleaning up our own backyard, taking responsibility, understanding our creative abilities. So while our "space" brothers and sisters of Light and Love are to inspire us, to help in our awakening, ultimately it is us who must take each step.

It is time for humanity to quit pointing the finger outside of themselves, seeking God/Goddess to come to Earth in the form of a savior to carry you home! NO ONE CAN CARRY YOU HOME! You must choose to ascend, and the process itself, if one persists, shall allow you to find your own way home. The concept of God/Goddess being outside of oneself comes from a state of separation. In separation, one sees God as separate and distinct from oneself. GOD/GODDESS IS WITHIN. It will never be found without, beloved.

The journey to one’s understanding that you are God/Goddess in human form only begins as one consciously chooses to evolve out of the separation that caused one to perceive God/Goddess as separate. Humanity is lazy. Humanity is also confused. The laziness and confusion are the result of the electrical energies that retard the field day in and day out. Such frequencies cause soul to retract so that there is no soul guiding the life of the form! (The Buffalo Kingdom through Karen Danrich) - www.ascendpress.org

We are here to assist you to give you some basic understanding of how you yourselves are going to transform your experience on your planet. It is not that you are going to be saved by those from the skies. You are being assisted, you are being guided. You are asking for help, we are giving, as many others are. But, as a mother would say to a child, if I do your homework for you, you will never get to college. If you examine who you are and what your desires in life are, you will find that you know deep within you - who you truly are. When you say that you do not, you are taking a position of powerlessness. You are not acknowledging the glory of your humanity. (The Pleiadians through Barbara Marciniak) - www.pleiadians.com

In understanding that one is a part of God/Goddess/All That Is, one has no need to seek God/Goddess outside of oneself. (The Buffalo Species and the Earth Mother through Karen Danrich "Mila") - www.ascendpress.org

The way is not in the sky, the way is in the heart. (Buddha)

…we can help in certain situations but only so far. Beyond a certain point, the universal law strictly forbids aid of any kind. I’ll give you a simple example. Imagine a child who goes to school each day in order to learn. Returning home in the evening, this child asks for assistance with his homework. If his parents are smart, they will help him understand the concepts involved so that the child can complete the task himself. If, however, his parents did his work for him, he wouldn’t learn much, would he? He’d end up having to repeat each year and his parents would have done him no favors. (From the book Abduction to the 9th Planet)

The reality is that no one can save another. Each must do their own inner homework to understand and forgive. In the forgiveness possible through real ascension, the patterns change, the density lifts, the joy returns, and hope is reborn anew. No one can do this for another. (The Earth Mother through Karen Danrich “Mila”) - www.ascendpress.org/articles/earth-motherIII/Savior.htm

…[Jesus] came and his mission was aborted, and he would return again in the fulfillment of the Church. This way, everybody would be waiting for him, paying Church tithes and always waiting for him instead of awakening themselves. (From the book – The Pleiadian Agenda by Barbara Hand Clow)

How could the same pattern be so predominant all over the world? Why do we find people always fighting each other over their truth, over their God - a God supposedly based on love, but a love located outside the self? Your great solution, no matter what is occuring, is to love yourself. Doing so will allow many doors to open and likewise many unwanted probabilities will simply pass you by, like a bird on the wing. (Unknown)

The whole secret of existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you, depend on no one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed. (Buddha)

So often, we see our human brother and sisters seeking teachers or gurus to find their way "home". We state that no guru, no teacher, can possibly open one to one's own soul. Opening to one's own soul requires inner work, inner processing, and inner releasing of the pain that caused one to armor one's heart from childhood. Most humans shut their heart at a very early age. Often by age 2, most human children seal their heart and never open it again for the entire lifetime! Although this is sad, one can go back in time to the moment when they chose to seal their heart shut because life was just too painful, and begin the process of opening the heart in full. Although this is not an easy process, as enough of the heart peels open, contact with the God/Goddess within can and shall occur.

In so doing, one shall begin to hear the messages of their own soul. As the messages of one's own soul pours forth, one shall become their own teacher, their own guru, and this shall allow one to find their way through the labyrinth of spiritual evolution. No one can do this for another, and no one better knows where one needs to be or what one's path is other than oneself. As one attunes to the messages of their own soul, one shall be guided from within. As one learns to follow one's own internal guidance implicitly, one shall find their way "home"...

There is a huge seduction amongst teachers and healers of all kinds. The seduction is that you "need them" to find your way home. In reality, you need no one other than your own connection to your own source or the God/Goddess within. Following another will take you off course, beloved. Following another is the method of the antichrist to assure that one does not ascend, does not find their way home, because each path is so unique, so distinct, that if you follow in the footsteps of another you shall get lost within your own journey...

You are God/Goddess in human form. You have always been God/Goddess in human form. We guide you to quit giving your power away to authorities of all kinds, whether such authorities be metaphysical, spiritual, medical, governmental, or educational. You are your living truth, your living hologram, as a member of the human species. Your own ascension and future therefore lies within your own hands. Only you can choose to awaken yourself and find your way home! (The Buffalo Species and the Earth Mother through Karen Danrich "Mila") - www.ascendpress.org

Many of you have become too dependent on the knowledge, rituals, methodology or teachings of others. Answer these questions from your heart/soul center, if you will: Do you trust another's channelled information as higher wisdom than your own; do you authenticate or validate all outside information within your own heart/soul center? Do you constantly seek a new method, a new herb, a new elixir or gadget to accelerate your light frequencies or jump-start your spiritual awareness without your participation - a magic solution…

Humanity has been in what might be called a "herd" state for thousands of years and so it is a conditioning that is hard to break. It is easier to follow the crowd and the popular beliefs or trends. It is more difficult to make your own decisions, and through trial and error, begin to trust your intuition even if it means taking radical measures that do not fit within the norm. It is easier to look outside yourself for a quick fix, whereby you do not have to participate or take responsibility for your actions. It is easier and more comfortable to blame someone else.

Mastery is just that, becoming the master of your destiny, a master of your body/mind/soul. How quick you are to jump on the bandwagon of a new concept that promises miracles. Unfortunately, there are many within the spiritual community that are more than willing to profit from your gullibility/vulnerability. "By their works you shall know them," but sometimes this realization comes after the fact - too late. You must validate from within before you make your decisions. I do not wish to sound harsh or suggest that you are not making great progress, when in fact the opposite is true. You are making spectacular progress and momentous growth. But many of you are at a critical point in your transition process. You are being sped along the initiation path, and new knowledge is pouring forth each day.

Even though you have many guidelines and theories out there to choose from, you still are a unique human/spiritual being whose path is different, whose tests are different, whose perception of reality is totally unique to you. Therefore, what works wonders for another, may do nothing for you. What one affirms as a sure-fire method for healing; balancing; attunement or atonement may be totally wrong for you - even detrimental. Are you going to live by someone else's values, or your own? Are you going to pattern your behavior and project your spiritual truth or be a clone for someone else? You are one of a kind, we tell you this time and time again. The Creator sent you forth with a most precious mission to accomplish, it is encoded within your soul as your divine blueprint. Are you going to follow your blueprint or someone else's, thereby leaving yours unmanifested or incomplete? (Archangel Michael through Ronna Herman) - www.RonnaStar.com

There is nothing more to believe in than yourself. When you believe in a God that is outside of yourself, you are not acknowledging the God that is within you - that has been your birthright. This is a major state of awareness for each and everyone of you, to move into the holiness of your own being. Each and every one of you, are all that you need to believe in. When you believe in yourself and expand what you think you are, you begin to learn the rules of the great mind game and then you are up there with the big guys. (The Pleiadians through Barbara Marciniak) - www.pleiadians.com

If you truly believe that others will show you the way or lead with more consciousness, then you will constantly be looking toward another to create your world, your life, your happiness, and your truth. Others can open windows to your truths, but no other is imprinted with your same lessons, substance, or soul. (Equinox) - www.rainbow-lady.com

Equality and the dance of the savior or guru are at odds with one another. The guru or savior wishes to be perceived as perfect, beautiful and all-powerful or all-knowing. Of course they appear that way as each that follows the guru gives their power, light and knowledge unto them. There is no room for equality in such a dance; for the guru is on top and all others are underneath in a pecking order or hierarchical structure. There is also no way to move into the dance of unity in such a game; for a hierarchical structure and unity are at odds with one another. (The Earth Mother through Karen Danrich “Mila”) - www.ascendpress.org/articles/earth-motherIII/Savior.htm

There will be no single great prophet or representative of the Creator during these swiftly changing times. You - the lightworkers - will carry the essence of the Creator. You are the christed beings and the ascended masters of the future. You are holding the fabric of the new Heaven and Earth within your soul, heart and mind. (Archangel Michael through Ronna Herman) - www.RonnaStar.com (Source: Sedona Journal of Emergence June 2004) - www.sedonajournal.com

For a very long time you have been an unconscious co-creator, and you felt you were at the mercy of a vengeful God or fate. It has taken much soul searching and hard work for you to finally accept the truth that you and you alone are the creator of your world and of all that takes place in your life. Many of you are still not ready to accept that burden. You would rather believe that there is someone "up there" in control; some higher being who is pulling the strings and meting out rewards and punishment so that you do not have to take responsibility. (Archangel Michael through Ronna Herman) - www.RonnaStar.com (Source: Sedona Journal of Emergence - June 2004) - www.sedonajournal.com

The consuming desire of most human beings is deliberately to plant their whole life in the hands of some other person. I would describe this method of searching for happiness as immature. Development of character consists solely in moving toward self-sufficiency. (Quentin Crisp, 1908 British Author)

In the last analysis, the individual person is responsible for living his own life and for finding himself. If he persists in shifting his responsibility to somebody else, he fails to find out the meaning of his own existence. (Thomas Merton, 1915-1968 American Religious Writer Poet)

The disappearance of a sense of responsibility is the most far-reaching consequence of submission to authority. (Stanley Milgram)

You have to do it yourself, no one else will do it for you. You must work out your own salvation. (Charles E. Popplestone)
