DEAR VYWAMUS

My name is Michael Keesal. My mother used to speak with you when I was younger. Should I continue on my musicsl path?

Dear Michael,

Personal questions such as yours are really best answered in an individual reading, where attention can be given to all your personal circumstances and more depth is possible than in an answer on this page. Here I can give you some very general advice which also applies to anyone who asks a question such as yours, particularly when it involves music or the arts.

If you are moved to make music, or art, if your heart is pleased when you do so, if you feel less joyful when you don't, then by all means, do continue. The kind of creativity you express in music or art is one of the main gateways into the deeper levels of your spirit, and at the same time you are also being of service by adding something to the lives of others around you who are affected by your art. This can be a real contribution to the world as well as helping you along on your spiritual path. This is true whether you feel your music or art is your true work in this life, or simply something you enjoy in your spare time.

As to making a living in the arts, that is another question. It is always best to follow your heart and what you are drawn to and have talent for, and often this helps you manifest the work that you most love. Yet even in an individual reading, after discussing the various factors involved, I could only give you probabilities about how different career plans you may follow might turn out. However, that uncertainty need not and should not stop you from continuing with whatever you are passionate about, whether you can make money at it or not. Indeed even if you never made a cent, and need to earn money to pay the bills some other way, your music or art may be the true life purpose that brought you here. If this applies to you, you will be happiest if you do whatever you have to do to follow your path.

And thank you, and all of those in the arts who give of yourselves to the world. You are needed.

Warmly,

Vywamus

DEAR VYWAMUS

First question: At a meditation workshop the teacher spent the whole weekend trying to instill fear that if we did not commit to his program we would never achieve "soul transcendence" or prosperity in life. The underlying motivations I observed seemed materialistic and selfish and the teacher seemed condescending and manipulative. Am I wrong?

Second question: Recently a meditation teacher said that everything that happens is karmically correct, even suggesting that people give themselves cancer. It seemed ridiculous to me. What about really terrible things like murder, disease and violent crime? How can these things be karmically correct?

Sincerely,

Chellie

DEAR CHELLIE

Even though its content is spiritual in purpose, the meditation workshop you describe is firmly rooted in the old ego framework humanity has held for many centuries. The process that went on there involves all the old ego patterns based on fear and hierarchy, “better than/not as good as,” rules and rituals, and sometimes material success as a mark of “progress.”

This old framework still has some value for souls who need to follow such a system for the learnings it provides, or for souls who need to perceive that this is not the path for them, and act accordingly. Trust your intuition. You are ready to enter the new consciousness that humanity is shifting into right now, and so this workshop and its concepts are not a match for you.

The new consciousness goes far beyond the old ego framework, into knowing and experiencing the infinite spiritual energies that have always been within you, and bringing them into every moment of your everyday life. This results in a life very rich in fulfilling satisfactions, and often material circumstances in your life get better too. So I urge you to see what you learned about the world and about yourself from this workshop, and then move on.

As to karma: Many people think of karma as an impersonal and often unforgiving force that is outside yourself. In reality what is called karma is actually an aspect of you. “Karma” means being caught up in reliving mind/emotion patterns set up by your ego's reactions to experiences you have, in this life or in other lives. As a soul, you carry the tendency to relive those patterns into each physical life – until you break out of the patterns. In a sense everything that happens is “karmically correct” since everything that happens accurately reflects what is, what is real right now, in your own personal evolution and in the evolution of humanity. It reflects when you are repeating the old patterns over and over, and it reflects when you break free of them.

Most of you are still working on the old mind/emotion patterns, with each life giving you another chance. Souls who have done murder or violence in other lives are given the option in a current life to choose differently, to avoid the violence they have done before. Sometimes they succeed, sometimes they don’t. So you still have violent crime. As humanity shifts consciousness these darker elements will gradually disappear. But meanwhile, there is still this aspect of humanity to be dealt with which goes back very far in your history (Remember the Bible story of Cain and Abel.).

I will also add that at the soul level there is agreement among you about everything. At the soul level, even the victim of a violent crime has agreed to the possibility of being a victim, or to the possibility of fighting being a victim. There are as many reasons for this as there are souls. Sometimes a victim wants to leave life early and this kind of agreement is an opportunity to do so. Sometimes there is the wish to avoid a devastating end-of-life illness, or other tragedies that may come up. Sometimes the soul purpose is also a learning on the part of family and friends in their reaction to it. And when violent crime happens on a world scale, as with the crimes committed by Hitler and his followers, then it provides lessons for the whole of humanity to learn, and hopefully not to have to learn again and again. Hitler was deranged, and violent, yet he could not have succeeded in what he did without many people giving up their personal responsibility and blindly following him. A tragic, painful lesson.

What about disease and accidents? From a karmic perspective, why do these things happen? Many times it’s because you actually “signed up” between lives to have such an experience, and again, that can be for many reasons. Your soul may simply want to learn what it’s like to have a particular disease or accident. Or to experience being healed. There may also be the purpose to help others around you to learn whatever they need to learn. That would include family, friends, and even doctors and caretakers who are around you, scientists who study your condition, and others who hear about you. There is no telling how far your influence in such a life may go.

In your soul’s view, even a devastating illness or accident is not the tragedy that you think it is. Sometimes it is the very path that can lead you to transcendence – and others around you as well. From the soul’s perspective you know that everything is always all right. At this level, you do not feel the need to cling to any one life, because you are aware that you go on for eternity. So it is very helpful for you to go to the soul level often in your daily life (whether in meditation or creative work or channeling healing energy) and spend time there. It will enrich your life every day, and if tragedy comes, it will help you go beyond it.

I thank you for your questions. Please call on my energy or that of the other guides at these higher levels whenever you need us to help you along on your path.

Blessings,

Vywamus

Greetings Vywamus,

Six months have passed now where I have had many near black outs. Are these really necessary to get me on the path to clear out parasites ? Why didn't these happen before I moved interstate ? How can I be of assistance to mankind once I am free of these blockages ?
Blessings.
Ruth

Dear Ruth,

While I do not give specific diagnostic or therapeutic medical advice through this channel, for you and for others who are also challenged with physical problems, I do have some general suggestions, and some words to say about other aspects of medical conditions.

When someone asks for help in a medical situation, I always suggest that first you look for the very best that Western medicine has to give you, and also the very best that alternative medicine can offer. This is, of course, a commonsense part of everyone’s responsibility to provide the best possible care for your body, your faithful companion on your path. You have done this, to some extent, already, and I urge you to be very thorough in exploring every option. Particularly with near blackouts, which can occur as part of many different medical conditions, it is important for you to explore every possibility.

From a larger perspective, living with a medical condition always brings important lessons, whether practical ones such as learning how to pay attention to and care for your body, or karmic and other lessons your soul came here to experience. However, I want to emphasize for everyone that a medical condition is not a detour on your spiritual path, but is an essential part of it. It is part of what you came here to do. And your ability to be of assistance to humanity and to contribute to the world is not at all dependent on waiting until health problems and their associated emotional energies are resolved.

Right in the midst of your medical problems, you are in a position to help the world. First and foremost, your contribution to the world is always to spend as much time as possible being in the light, in touch with your inner Being, and in touch with the aliveness that is always there within you. Meditation is one way to be in this state of higher consciousness, of course, or you can use whatever way you have found works for you. One way of entering this higher state that may be especially helpful when you have a physical problem is to focus on going deeply into the energy field of your body, beneath and beyond the surface level where the pain and other problems typically are, deep into the very core of your physical being. And simply be there. Just your spending some time every day being in this higher state of consciousness helps all beings on the planet – and it is good for your body as well.

Second, be mindful of the opportunities for growth a physical ailment provides on your path, for learning greater and greater acceptance of the reality of the present moment, even while you have this physical problem. Accept it all -- the ailment, the resistance you feel to having it, the actions you may need to take to care for your body, the role you play in allowing others to help you, or in presenting a challenge to physicians and other practitioners that enhances their learning. And of course, accept the knowledge that you have a deeper Life in you that is beyond the physical, that you may access in meditation or other ways. All this is part of your contribution to the world.

For you, Ruth, there is a high probability that some aspects of your physical problem will be resolved soon, especially if you carry out the suggestions I’ve given you here. Then, certainly, other ways to be of service will come to your attention and we will help you notice them. You are definitely needed for other service in the future. And, this future service may well be based on the learnings you are getting now, in the course of dealing with the physical problem you have.

But meanwhile -- and I say this for everyone, because perhaps 90% of you reading this will be facing a major or minor physical problem sometime before you leave this body—embrace your physical conditions and the situations you are put in because of them. They are an essential part of your journey, and may be the foundation for your next step.

And, whatever you have to deal with, please remember, we are always here to guide and support you through it all.

Blessings,

Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,

Is there a meditation to increase one’s frequency for greater good on this planet? Your answer is very important to me.
Rosalind


Dear Rosalind,

Actually your frequency level does not need to increase, because you always have within you all frequencies, up to the very highest, which I often call the “numinous” frequencies. At these highest levels of yourself you are always in touch and one with the deep aliveness that underlies all realities, including the everyday reality you live in. So the idea is to become more aware of and in tune with these frequencies that are already in yourself.

How to do that? For some people, creative or healing work may bring you into this higher level. For most people, one of the many forms of meditation will help you focus more often and for longer on your own highest frequency levels. There are many books you can explore if you want to know more about the different forms of meditation, and I have briefly described some of them in other letters on this Web page. There are also recordings you may find helpful in leading you into a higher state. I would say that if a particular form of meditation already attracts you, use that form. If no particular one attracts you, choose any one and stick with it for a while. Then you may be drawn to a different form. Or you may start to create your own.

As you continue to practice you may notice the feelings of deep peace or joy which are characteristic of the numinous energy levels. But even if you don’t have these feelings right away, or every time, by meditating regularly you are holding open a space for the numinous energies to come into your consciousness and you will eventually be able to experience them with greater and greater awareness.

Just meditating in any form and so entering your own numinous level on a regular basis is an important help in raising your own consciousness and that of humanity, of Earth, and of all beings on the planet. This is so even if you do not engage in any outward activity.

Of course, some opportunity to take part in an outward activity to help others or the planet may come along, and you may decide to also act on that. And if you are looking for a path of activity to help Earth in your everyday life, that path will surely arise when you live more and more in your own numinous levels. All you will have to do is be alert in everyday life and notice when the opportunity to take action presents itself. But consciously spending time at your own numinous levels is always the greatest contribution of all that you can make to your planet.

If you would like a meditation specifically focused toward the good of Earth, I would suggest that if you can, you be outdoors and experiment with feeling your feet in contact with Earth, touch the ground with your hands, even lie down on the ground, if feasible. And breathe. Let yourself notice your connection with the Earth, not just mentally, but a very physical and emotional bond as well. If you have made this connection, you may feel comfort, or love in your heart. The earth likes to be touched by anyone who touches with awareness. Then, if you are not already at your own numinous level, keep touching Earth and use whatever form of meditation you like to go to your numinous frequency levels. Take the planet and all its inhabitants into that meditation with you and then just be there. When you’re there you don’t have to keep reminding yourself of your intention to help the planet. You and Earth are there together in the oneness of Being, which is all that is necessary.

If you cannot do this meditation while outdoors and physically touching Earth, simply picture yourself as doing so. After all, even in a plane or a tall building, as an inhabitant of Earth, you are always in its energy field and within the collective energy field of all humans and all other beings on the planet.

I and the other guides and teachers at my level thank you, Rosalind, for your desire to move toward the greater good on your planet. We assure you that we will be with you, both in dreams and in waking life, and you may call on us for insight and for our energies at any time.

Blessings,
Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,

A Call from Denmark
The other day I read about you in a book of Doreen Virtue and felt deeply that I … had to try and get in contact with you. I found this fantastic website… Thank you Andrea for sharing and giving this to us and thank you Vywamus for your beloved and enriched answers.

I seek for… guidance in my personal life and would have liked an individual setting but it’s not possible for me right now. I try this instead thinking that some of my… life themes may be recognizable to others.

One of the main themes is fear. How to face and transform fear, how to avoid creating and attracting fearful situations and people that can bring fear into your life, and to find out when fear is an illusion or real and you therefore need to act and need protection … I want to have the courage to be who I am and stand up for my beliefs... I so much feel that I need a spiritual teacher now in order to open up to find answers but I just don’t know how and where to find such a teacher.

I will be grateful if you will spent some time on giving me some advice.
Thank you. Yours sincerely,
Gitte

Dear Gitte,

From Andrea and myself, you are most welcome, and we are both glad you have found us on this web site. And we hear and understand your struggle. It isn’t surprising that you often feel the lack of a spiritual teacher, as do so many others. This is partly because you’re living in a time of transition, where forms are changing.

Gradually you are all becoming your own spiritual teachers and finding the guidance you need within yourselves rather than at the feet of a master. But meanwhile, in the transition, you may feel somewhat lost and alone, which is why I and other guides who work with me come to you in dreams, or in meditation, and also through books you may read, people you may encounter, and here on the Internet, of course. Even before you received this response to your questions – in fact, as soon as you asked them – I and other guides have been working with you both in dreams and while you’re awake, to bring you insights and help you shift your energies into a more satisfying pattern for you.

Now to your main question: What about fear? Fear is an amazing teacher for you and for all humans. It can be one of the greatest helps on your spiritual path. And to begin with, the most important thing to remember is, don’t fight it or try to make it go away, or even try to transform it. Instead, if you can find a way to fully accept your fear and even embrace it as an ally in your learning, it will eventually transform itself. When fear comes up in a situation, the first thing to do is pay attention and watch it arise. The second thing is to keep breathing. The third thing is to say to the fear, in some form, “ I accept you as part of my everyday reality right now.”

Part of you will be watching, breathing, and accepting, and part of you may well be submerged in the fear, your mind repeating over all the things you fear will happen, your emotions and body reacting, tightening up, perhaps your stomach in knots, your breathing faster, and so on. Maybe at some point you will get totally submerged in fear. That’s all right, it’s just part of the learning process.

At that point, if you can take some time in a private place, it can be very helpful to accept the fear I a bodily way. Move your body in tune with the fear, let the fear flow through it. Express your fear in movements, make fearful noises, and keep breathing long, deep breaths and letting them out fully. You may want to moan or whimper, or make short exclamations such as, “Oh no!” or “I’m so afraid,” or whatever comes up. Stay with the feeling. Don’t let the mind get involved in explaining all the reasons you are afraid, just feel.

As you do this, you may gradually notice, underneath the fear, a deep sense of energy and aliveness. Your fear may gradually shift into another emotion, possibly anger, or determination. If so, stay with that feeling for a while and see where it leads. Make movements, sounds, and statements to go with the new feelings. You may now find yourself saying things like “No, I won’t!” or “Yes, I will!” or “Never again!” and so forth.

The first time you work with your emotions in this way, you may feel this shift, and your body, if you keep paying attention to it, and breathing, will guide you into what to do next. If you don’t feel a shift the first time around, keep going. At the very least you will be relieving some of the static and pressure of your fearful thoughts by letting them flow through the body and not stay trapped going round and round in your head. Definitely a step in the right direction!

After this work, when the fear pressure is a bit lessened, take some time to meditate in whatever form you like to use. There are many good books and recordings to help you get into the deeper and broader levels of your consciousness, beyond your everyday worries and concerns. Go there as often as you can. Healing and comfort are there, along with the awareness of the great force of life within yourself, and the awareness of the You that is always all right and never can be harmed – the You that need never fear. When you are in this state of being, you need no protection and need not be concerned with protection. Any action that you need to take in your everyday life will arise of itself from this state of deep aliveness, without your figuring it all out with your mind. You will be led to do the “right’ things. You can trust this guidance.

So go to this place often until you feel and know for yourself that deep sense of peace, trust, and aliveness. It is your destiny and that of all humans to be more and more in this state of consciousness. And thank the fear that pushed you into finding it.

These steps I suggest will help you if you try them. They will also help with the other challenges you are facing. Please know that I and other guides fully understand how it is to be you, to feel fear and to face the many situations you have to deal with. And of course, go inside and call on us at any time for our help and support.

Warmly,
Vywamus

Hello my dear friend Vywamus,

Is there such a thing as Indigo Souls? IAm I one of them? I often feel like they say about these souls: misunderstood, lonely, different and gifted. You and the “gang” have been my best friends since 1999 and I love you very much. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for always being with me.
With love from Brasil,
Renata

Dear Renata,

From long ago in human history, at any one time there have always been certain souls who in everyday life, have felt set apart from others by their special qualities, and often also felt misunderstood and lonely. In the present time many have used the term “Indigo Souls.” Usually these are gifted souls who may be more creative and evolved in consciousness than people around them. And there usually are certain personal issues they are here to work on as well.

Of course, not everyone who feels lonely and misunderstood is an Indigo Soul. Sometimes these feelings are simply the result of not having learned enough relationship skills in dealing with others – or, of happening to be surrounded by others who do not have the inclination or the ability to try to relate to you. But if you have developed these skills and still feel that there is much growing within you (creativity, healing talent, psychic ability, spiritual opening, etc.) that you cannot easily communicate to others, you are likely one of the Indigo Children. This is the case with you.

Many of you are coming in now in order to radiate the new consciousness to others and possibly be teachers as well. You are pioneers in the forefront of the evolution of human consciousness, and often after a period of your feeling alone, we guides are able to draw you toward other Indigo Souls who are here to do the same work, so that you can work together, and so that you no longer have to feel alone and misunderstood. So do be alert for this happening in your life.

Meanwhile, always, we guides are here to be your support and your “best friends.” We are glad you can feel our presence. Hang out with us as often as you can.

Lovingly,
Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,

Today I experienced you through a friend in Sun City, AZ so did a Google search, finding you here. I feel I am meant to remember our connection and would appreciate any insight you would offer as to our relationship…

Like many who write you I feel like I am currently existing in ‘Limbo land’, but do realize this is all in divine order and part of the exercise in ‘just being’… My question has to do with my ‘secondary purpose’. I’ve been tested through loss, letting go and finally surrendering to God’s will. Because of this experience/journey I am thinking that this is something I took on… so that I can share it with others… Yet the final key to this experience has not arrived – the key that would make the ‘story’ worth sharing, i.e. the miracle manifestation based solely on faith and surrender – not doing.

Am I on track…?

Blessings, Joseph [Surprise, AZ]

Dear Joseph,

Thank you for writing, you’ve put into words what you and many others are experiencing right now. Our connection is that you have in other lives been a student of mine, and of the other masters you mentioned. You are continuing your learning with us, especially in the dream state. I and the other guides commend you for your level of acceptance of loss, of being temporarily in limbo, and of surrendering to God.

All this has well prepared you to teach and help others. The opportunity to do so and the forms you need will crystallize in time. You can be alert for such opportunities in your daily life, but practice not being attached to finding them right away. Don’t be trapped into somehow expecting a manifestation, whether internal or external. That lets your ego pull you into looking for a future “result,” which of course gets you away from being present in the now.

You are on track, particularly in the sense that your loss experience and your process of dealing with it are important for your soul’s growth and for opening up new roles for you in teaching and helping others – eventually. But the growth and opening cannot be rushed. The ego, of course, likes goals and results, and will always attempt to persuade you to try to make something happen, right now.

Your best bet, however, is to stay as much as you can in the not-doing, the surrender, and simply be. Spend as much time as possible in the wider consciousness of meditation, surrender, and acceptance. Feel the joy of being there. If you get impatient and want “results,’ simply watch these thoughts arise and accept them like a wave passing over you. Of course, try out whatever comes along that attracts you. Eventually the right action will arise out of being in this higher state and your next step will be clear and joyous.

Meanwhile, I would like to point out that even if at this time you are taking no specific action in your everyday world, just by being present in that broader, deeper level of consciousness (whether you reach it in meditation or some other way), you are already a source of light, radiating the higher energies and so greatly helping others and the planet. You and others who can do this are particularly needed at this time to contribute in this way. Please feel free to call on me or the other guides at any time, and you can also, before sleeping, make the intention to remember our work together in the dream state.

We thank you for your service.

Warmly,
Vywamus

Dear Vywmaus,

Do you know me? Who am I? What is my purpose in life? I feel like I don't belong here. Since I had ilahinoor energy from Kiara, I see number 11 a lot around and every scenario is happening twice. I am with my twinflame. …I gave birth to my daughter in 2007 just like gaia was giving birth to the female energy… At the moment I feel like I am on a mountain top and dont know where to go from here. Can you please guide me? …There was a message in the internet from extraterrestrials recently... They ask if we would like them to show up. I read in several sites that some extraterrestrials… downsized our spritual nature so that we are trapped in our physical bodies and forget our divine source. So, although I would like to get in touch with the extraterrestrials, I feel a lot of fear.

Thank you so much,

G.

Dear G.,

With the number of specific questions and concerns you bring up you would certainly benefit from one or more individual sessions with someone you trust, if that could be arranged. These issues you bring up deserve a great deal more time and space than can be managed on this page. However, I have made some general suggestions for you here, since there are many others like you who are dealing with some of the same challenges.

You ask if I know you. Yes. You are a beautiful soul whose main purpose in life, as with all humans, is to enter higher consciousness. Other roles will grow out of that. Your feeling of not belonging is mostly attributable to your problem in being fully present in the world. There is an imbalance here, in that, like many others, you tend to spend much time in your mind, without being very present in your physical body or your emotional body. Often when you do experience your body or emotions, this is not a direct experience but done through your mind.

Your mind has been keeping you very busy, and the more spiritual or other “information” you feed it, the faster it goes. Moreover, some of the material you’re getting is not really accurate in the reality you live in, and it may be hard to be sure about which information to trust. Simply adding more and more information will not help you decide. In trying to make judgments about spiritual information and about everyday problems, if you stay in your mind alone, you never arrive at any deep sense of certainty about the choices you make. And having so much going on in your head can become a torture.

You need to slow down and become more grounded in your body. One good way to do this is through movement and dancing, paying attention to what sensations you experience in your body while moving. If emotions come up, let them also flow through your body in movement. Just be with fear, love, joy, anger, sadness, as they are expressed in your body. Don’t try to figure anything out. Insight may come afterward.

Then, when you have worked with your body and emotions, experiment with finding the forms of meditation that work best for you. Doing this enables you to enter a higher level of consciousness, beyond the mind, where you will find “answers” to your questions and concerns about relationships, work, and your path in life, and where you will be able to create a reality for yourself that is safe and joyful.

For more details on how to do this work with yourself, look through the letters on this web page, where I have responded to a number of others who have similar needs to yours. I and other guides are aware of your struggles and are with you always. Call on us for energy and support.

Blessings,
Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,

I am interested in how to connect with my inner being and the higher realms. Is there a guide line to follow? Whom do I ask for help?

I am fairly new to these concepts and have learned how to do Reiki, so that was my first opening door. I sooo want to learn more. I have been told I am going to be a very strong healer and very needed, so I need all the help I can get to evolve.

Thank you,
Mary Ann

Dear Mary Ann,

Congratulations on getting to this point. You have many beautiful learnings and experiences ahead on your spiritual path. I and the other guides are glad for you.

Since you have already laid a fine foundation with the Reiki, perhaps you can start there, continuing to practice Reiki on yourself, on others, on the Earth, on pets or plants, and learning more and more about the higher Energy that flows through you when doing the healing work. As you probably learned in your Reiki training, this Energy flows through you to heal, whether you can at first perceive it or not. As you pay attention and further attune yourself to the Energy, you can develop your ability to perceive it more easily, and allow a greater flow to come through you.

You will find many writings that tell of others’ experiences in the higher realms. These can be good food for your mind, and may whet your enthusiasm for your own further explorations, But they will not be enough. On the spiritual path words and writings are no substitute for your own direct experience. So, in addition to the Reiki I would also recommend that you try out various forms of both movement and sitting meditation.

There are many good books which describe the various forms of meditation you can use, and I have gone into detail about some of these forms in other letters on this web site. If you have already looked through them you’ve probably seen that much of the advice there about how to connect to your inner being applies to you as well.

You may also try some of the many audio recordings that are designed to lead you into a state of higher consciousness, and see which are helpful to you. And finally, you might look into Part Two of my book, The Next Big Bang: The Explosion of Human Consciousness where I present in an easy to use form a set of exercises for accessing your inner being and the higher realms of consciousness. All these may be helpful to you, and it is not necessary that you follow all the directions to the letter. These are only forms designed to help you make a space in your awareness to allow a direct connection to your inner being. So try them out, and then trust your own inner wisdom as to how you use them.

As for asking for help, you may already be aware of having some help from various beings, especially those who specialize in healing, while doing your Reiki, and you may get a clearer sense of them as you continue to work together. And for personal guidance and supportive energy on your path, you may ask me, or any one of us guides and teachers that you feel drawn to. We are all here and always available as your companions on this exciting journey. Call on us any time.

Fondly,
Vywamus

Bonjour,
Depuis le 4 Août je suis rentré en canalisation avec Vywamus, je peux vous dire que je doute encore
Merci…
Nicole

(Following is a translation by Andrea)

Hello,
Since the 4th of August I have begun channeling with Vywamus, I can tell you that I still have doubts.

Thank you…
Nicole
Montreal

Bonjour Nicole,
I have enough French to understand your e-mail, but not really enough to respond adequately in French, so I have taken the liberty of translating your question as best I can and responding to you in English. I trust this won’t be a problem, since from your address I assume you are bilingual.

How great that you have been channeling! I’m glad for you. And yes, I think that doubts are always part of the process, at least at first. Every channel I know, including those in my Learn to Channel classes, goes through this. I have channeled from Vywamus some suggestions here for you and others who are channeling.

Warmly,
Andrea

Dear Nicole,

I want to assure you that you are indeed channeling, but of course you need to develop your own inner “yardstick” to feel real certainty about it. And practice, and more practice, is the best help for this, whether it is channeling for people you trust, or for yourself. It is also very helpful to record what you channel, either in writing or in an audio recording -- or, if you are channeling for someone else, to have them do so.

You may have noticed that while you are in the state of consciousness where you channel, often everything you receive seems perfectly obvious to anyone and nothing out of the ordinary. So after you finish channeling, looking over what you recorded is frequently helpful in validating to you that you have indeed gone beyond what you could do in your usual everyday perceptions.

If you have looked through some of the letters on this web page, and the material on the News page, you may have found other material that will be of help to you in developing your channeling further, but the main points are practice and recording. I hope you will continue on this path of exploration. It is not only the information you may be getting, but channeling is a powerful tool for your own personal growth. It certainly stretches your boundaries and helps you go beyond who you think you are. And often the information you get and the process of getting it will help you examine and move through many of your own personal issues.

My best wishes for your continued adventures with channeling, and I encourage you to enjoy it as part of your spiritual path. I and the other teachers and guides, and your higher Self are always with you as you learn to better and better hear us.

Blessings,
Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,
My name is Walter and I was wondering if you had anything to tell me about my growth in my spiritual world. And I sure miss having sessions with you.

Dear Walter,

I well understand that at times you feel alone and in need of reassurance. So I would like to assure you, your spiritual growth is proceeding well, whether you are aware of it or not. It will go even better if you don’t forget to notice that every day in your “ordinary” life presents you with events that have a deeper meaning. They are all gifts or challenges on your spiritual path. Keep responding to them as such.

I and your larger Self are always with you to give you inner guidance in waking life and in dreams. I would add that our sessions together do go on, in the dream state, and you and I are doing a lot there together. If you wish to “tune in” better to these dream sessions while you’re actually awake, I suggest you look through the letters on this page and the material on the News page, for advice I have given others on tuning in to spiritual guidance.

It is no accident that you, and many others, are not right now in a position to receive guidance in personal sessions. For some this is because of financial limitations, and for others a trustworthy channel or psychic may simply be unavailable at this time. And often the reason for this is that you are at a point on your path where you need to be spurred on to developing your own inner wisdom and learning to trust it. This is the point where you are now. As you develop this aspect of yourself, you will connect inwardly with me and other guides, and eventually even reconnect with others in body who can reinforce and validate what you are learning.

So, be encouraged that you are in exactly the right phase of your learning right now. And I will see you in the dream state, and in other states as you continue to grow.

Warmly,
Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,

What is God’s plan regarding the evolution of conscious for African people, looks like we are left behind, nobody seems to care about futur in this world, are we going to stay like that for ever? Or do you have a project for Africa?
Thank you
Joele-renee Atouga

Dear Joele-Renee,

Never think that you are forgotten. Of course you are not left behind in the evolution of consciousness, and every one of you in Africa, as in every other country, is invited to be a pioneer on the forefront of the evolution of human consciousness. No matter where you are, you as an individual have your part to play. In whatever circumstances you may be, you can always go beyond the level of your everyday life and into the deeper awareness at the core of your being where you are in touch with the Infinite. For more about how to do this, read or reread answers to others on this ASK VYWAMUS page, and also the general guidelines given on the NEWS page. If many of you as individuals do this more and more often, you are making space for the energies of higher consciousness to come in for all other humans, and you will be guided into actions in your everyday life that will further your own and others’ evolution.
If you go to your own deepest soul levels – by meditation or other ways – you will also find there the souls of all other humans who are now in body and living on earth, and also a more specific group of all those of you living in Africa. One of the best things you can do for the evolution of consciousness in Africa, and globally, is to spend time there being present in the space of your higher Selves where all of you are one. When you come back from this place into daily life, situations will arise that may ask for your attention. Focus on these and you will be guided to the best action to take.
Now, Africa is a very special place for all humans, because it is your mother land. It is in Africa that you first came into human form, and later wandered to all parts of your world. So all your roots are there. Since that time Africa has played many roles for the world, among the m the birthplace of great civilizations, and also the place of preservation of much that is wild and beautiful in nature. Africa’s current world role is a temporary one, though it may seem very long to you. Right now, there is much suffering in Africa, from disease, from human hate and violence, from harsh government and corruption. You could say that Africa is acting as a mirror for the world to look in, in which humans can see some of your darkest sides. And yet also you can see there the vast love, courage, and inspiration of which all humans are capable. Many Africans who do not always get into the news are showing these every day. And many nonAfricans, when they see the suffering Africa is going through, are moved to compassion and love, and to taking action to be of help. Africa has a special role in helping all others in the world to grow in consciousness and open their hearts.
Now as to those of you actually living in Africa, or in any land where you are suffering, the pain you all go through is an amazing spur to you to push you forward in your evolution. Do not think that because of the suffering in your land that you are in a “backwater,” fated to be overwhelmed by your own troubles, and to be ignored by the rest of the world. In fact, wherever there is great suffering, there is also the most potential of awakening consciousness. This is partly because you are so motivated by your pain that you will do what is needed to move out of it, more readily than some who have a more comfortable life. And, as with any suffering, I always say, of course do what you can to relieve it in yourself and others by any practical means. But eventually, to deal with suffering, you must go beyond it. You cannot solve suffering, or many of the other problems you have now, at the level where these problems arise. Rather you must go beyond, into the deeper vaster place of your larger Selves, where you will find peace – and love and joy – and the practical answers you need. In doing this, you may evolve very fast, and you will be helping all others to do so as well.
We guides at my level thank you in Africa for the role you have taken on. We never forget you. We are always with you to help you in the difficult times and to help you reach your own deep place of aliveness and joy, where you and we are one, and where you can never really be harmed. Call on us at any time. We love you.
Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,

I have recently “discovered” you…and… I want to ask you to address the issue of religious baggage for some of us who have open hearts and really want to learn and grow and contribute….I was raised…Catholic… but even at a young age felt that there was “more” out there, that God was bigger than even the church taught, etc….Jesus, or Jeshua as I have come to know him has been a touch stone lately, and I wanted to ask you your thoughts on how those of us steeped deep in dogma can be healed to embrace the larger whole.
Thank you,
Francine

Dear Francine,
I see you are already finding your way. For you as a Christian, spending time being present in the energy of Jesus (or Jeshua) is perhaps the most effective way of all to heal and embrace the larger whole.
Often in human history a powerful stream of Energy/Consciousness from the level of Spirit has come to you. And inevitably, usually in a well meaning effort to preserve and carry on this stream, humans have constructed around it a structure of beliefs, rules, and rituals – that is, a “religion.” This is the case with all your major religions. Yet since every religion is a human organization, built by humans, the form of the organization itself is subject to human limitations. And so the pure stream of Energy and Consciousness that Jesus (and other great teachers and masters) brought to humanity has been filtered through the minds and egos of the people who received it, through the framework of beliefs about God and the world that were current at the time. Your religion and other religions, since their beginnings, have continued to be strained through successive “mind” filters right up through the present day.
When a human organization is established to define and carry on the spiritual energies and message, it is subject to the same problems, dynamics, politics, and shortcomings as any other human organization. This is a mind and ego dominated form, and it is a pattern typical of the stage most humans have evolved to, so far. To get out of this pattern – and you will, eventually -- humans need to evolve so that your minds/egos contribute to but do not dominate the process. You will need to get beyond trying, as the mind always now wants to do, to “nail down” the message and set up rules and dogmas and rituals around it. In a sense, the mind is always trying to get the spiritual energies “under control.” Of course you can’t do that. These energies are alive and evolving in your heart and everywhere. And the best way to get back to the “original” message and let it grow within you is to do exactly what you are doing: go to the pure stream of Energy and Consciousness where the message came from, and keep spending time being present there – in your case, with Jesus. Or with another teacher, if you are of another religious background.
By the way, you don’t have to intentionally set about “ditching” or rebelling against the religious structures in your past. You can do so if you wish, and if it seems to be part of your growth. But this is not really a polarity where you have to choose between a religious affiliation and an experience of the broader spiritual energies you long for. Rather than an “either-or” situation, it can be “both-and.” You can embrace religion as one aspect of Spirit, a human and limited aspect which is never able to “contain” or fully express Spirit, yet which may be helpful at times on your spiritual path.
If you keep spending time with Jesus in that pure stream of Energy/Consciousness he brings, you will simply find that you are in harmony with the deepest core meanings of your religion (of any religion), and that nonessential or limiting beliefs and structures will simply fall away, or their importance to you will shrink, so that they are no longer a problem. You will have eyes only for what is essential. You can embrace the limited view of Spirit offered by a religion as one part of the infinite whole – one view through a limited human perspective – one view among the infinite number of views in the infinite sight of the Divine.
With love and encouragement to you on your path,
Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,

Hi vywamus,
A few years ago I realized – and started writing them down, so I won’t forget them – numerous situations where there MUST be a ‘guardian angel’ who protects me, was that you?
I’d like to thank you or whoever it is for that!
Egon

Dear Egon,
Yes – and you’re welcome! I have been around you often, along with other guides, and angels. It’s good that you’ve been noticing these situations and writing them down. This makes you more open to receiving our help at any moment in your day.
We are always available to give you our love, support, and guidance. Call on us any time.
Many blessings,
Vywamus

16 Apr, 2011

Dear Vywamus,

I am caught up in a complete veil of confusion at the moment and would like your help. I have been on a path of healing in many different forms, but currently am struggling to make them work together in a way that makes sense. Can you see a path clear of how I make it all work in a way that actually benefits all the people that I want it to, yet still challenging me intellectually, and not causing me to personally fall victim to my own many many thoughts?
Regards,
Tammra

Dear Tammra,
To you and to many others who are torn between many paths I would say, there is a great tendency at this time to overthink decisions in your life situation. And while your mind can gather for you much useful information, it can only take you so far. You must go beyond your mind to find the solutions you want. Otherwise, you will keep circling round and round in a loop of pros and cons and “what if’s” without any lasting sense of conviction. And, by the way, your mind is getting tired and bored with going round and round with your problems. Why not give it something interesting or creative to do that is not related to your problems, while you explore other approaches?
Some of my suggestions here you may have tried already, though probably not all of them. I am giving them all here so that other readers with concerns like yours can try them. And I ask you to be open minded about trying them again, perhaps coming from a different standpoint.
To deal with your confusion among alternatives, and how to make them work together, you have many more resources than you have been using. So first, pay more attention to the intelligence of your heart. Amidst all this mental confusion, notice where your heart is drawn to go, and follow it. If you have trouble feeling connection to your heart, or if it seems to want to go in more than one direction, pay attention to the intelligence of your body. This is a real resource that many of you don’t use. Your body is constantly giving you feedback on how you feel about people and events and choices in your life. The feedback comes in many forms – everything from muscle tension and holding your breath to a bodily relaxation and a sense of wellbeing. Bringing a problem to mind and then allowing your feelings to be expressed in physical movement or dancing is one bodily way to get clearer on what your real feelings and desires are, and also to eliminate some of the confusing static that arises in your mind when you have pent up emotions. Dance your confusion, dance your attraction or resistance to the alternatives facing you. And so on.
Finally, activate more fully your connection with Spirit, either by meditation, prayer, or in other ways that work for you. When you spend some time every day in the still and deeply alive place at the core of your being, while you are there you attain a sense of inner peace which comes out of simply being, and being present there. In this state you realize that the agitation and confusion among alternatives you experience are simply ways your mind/ego has of keeping you busy. In the state of deep stillness, it may be obvious to you what I often tell people – that is, you are here on this earth to be. That is everyone’s destiny. If you can do this, you are fulfilling your purpose here. Period. And often out of being fully present in the deep stillness within, there will effortlessly emerge things that you feel inclined to do, and any doing you need to engage in can and does easily emerge.
Of course, there are many paths of doing that each of you may take while here on earth in body. Every one of them leads to some important learning. It may make you feel better to know that in a sense, there is no one “perfect” or “right” path for you. All paths eventually lead you back to the Infinite, your Home.
So, be easy. Pay attention to your heart and your body. Your mind doesn’t have to do everything. Indeed, it can’t. Go to the level of Spirit often. As you spend time there you will find certain inclinations to act emerging. You may end up choosing one of the paths you are considering, or a combination, or something entirely new. The main thing for you at this time is to get out of that unending mind/ego cycle where you will find much information but no satisfying answers. As I said, to find a solution to your challenges you must go beyond the (mind) framework where they are generated. When you do so, the answers you need will emerge. This is the life lesson in front of you and many others at this time: to go beyond.
Finally, be aware that we teachers and guides are always with you, and sending you the support and insights you need, in dreams and in the waking state. Watch for us. Call on us.
Warmly,
Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,

I would be interested in … (your) interpretation of the following …(about the) March 9, 2011 Dawn of the Unity Wave.
Thank you,
Charlotte

Dear Charlotte,
This message you refer to, in its essence, can be helpful for many people. It is a more mind-oriented message than many, and will therefore resonate with those of you who are more mind-centered. We guides at our level send out our guidance and support in many forms in order to reach as many of you as possible. Channel and others who receive and pass on our guidance do so through their own mind structures, and so on the surface many messages seem quite different. But this is fine because the concepts and words from one source resonate with some individuals, whereas others will respond more to the same message through a source that offers different words and concepts.
As long as all of you pay attention to the real essence of the messages without getting caught up in the details, you will receive the guidance you need.
I would add that you are all essentially moving toward oneness, or “unity consciousness,” and we are happy to support you, whatever words and ideas work best for you. And I assure you, whatever you were doing on March 9, you received as much of the higher energies as you were open to, and will continue to do so.
Lovingly,
Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,

What about the crisis in Greece? It will be resolved normally and quickly?
Thank you

Agapi Kousi

Dear Agapi,

Although I do not make specific, concrete predictions, at this time the probabilities are that Greece will recover gradually over the course of several years. Notice that I say “probabilities.” These depend on many conditions, including choices made by many people, and they shift so much from hour to hour to hour that making an accurate prediction is not really possible. So I give you probabilities.

I’m answering your question on this page because it is relevant for many people right now. Greece’s problems are not occurring in a vacuum. Around the globe the economies and politics of many countries are in turmoil. This is partly due to shortsighted policies on the part of your leaders. But I would add that it is also a result of the beginning of a vast shift in all areas of human life. Old forms that used to work for you are breaking down – not only in the area of economics but also in politics, communication, education, religion, family life styles, your relationship to the Earth, and so on. As this shift goes on you will all develop new forms, but that hasn’t yet happened. You are still in the period of breakdown of old forms, and the very beginnings of ideas for new, more effective forms. So economic and other troubles in Greece and other countries are just one expression of this breakdown of forms.

Humanity will move out of this stage and into the new forms you need, but how fast you do this depends on choices you all make. Naturally some will drag their heels and keep trying to make the old ways work, while others will be ready to move forward and find the new forms you need.

What do you do in the meantime? There are lessons to be learned in the current period of turmoil. Perhaps the two most important are the interdependence of all humans on each other, and the need to understand what are your true priorities in life.

The new forms you need, economically and otherwise, will depend on your thinking globally, and seeing how much you depend on each other and how much your own welfare relates to the welfare of others in other countries. Concerning economics, there is a natural physical baseline of your material needs: adequate food, clothing, shelter, and medical care. How may you best help each other so that everyone eventually reaches this baseline? An overall attitude of compassion and collaboration, rather than competition, will be important in your developing successful new forms.

Second, it will be important to do some soul searching about what your real priorities are and whether they produce the fulfillment in life that you want. Maybe in the current economic times you are feeling the pinch, and feeling deprived of some of the material things you are accustomed to having. These may be “extras” or even necessities. For those of you who are worried about basic necessities, we send you our love and support. This is an opportunity to come together with others to help fulfill each others’ basic needs, and to develop your creativity in finding new ways to get your needs met. I do not say that this is easy. Yet in the ways you handle this hardship and help others to do so, be sure that your contribution is important. Your life can make a difference.

For those of you who are being deprived of some of the “extras,” or who are worried that that will happen, you have some questions to ask yourself. Beyond the baseline of your physical needs, has having more material things brought you lasting satisfaction and security, or has it eventually led to your feeling the need of even more things? How do you enjoy and value nonmaterial things such as your relationships with family and friends, your creative activities, your spiritual experiences, and so forth? Beyond the baseline need for certain material things, what makes, for you, a rich and fulfilling life?

The current shakeup of economies in many countries offers all of you the opportunity to learn much about how you all depend on each other, and about what you really value in life. Your embracing these challenges and responding to them will be helpful. The sooner you begin to learn these lessons, and incorporate them into new forms, the sooner you will pass out of this current period of turmoil.

Meanwhile, I and other guides and teachers are always here to give you our love and support. Do not hesitate to contact us in meditation, or ask for our help in dreams.

Warmly,

Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,

I have often been told that I have an over-active imagination ;)

Although I am completely aware that the art I create is inspired and comes through me from Source, I have a much harder time accepting that those little whispers inside my head that speak in my own voice are coming from anyplace other than my imagination.

I manage to meditate at least 30 minutes a day, in segments of 15 minutes each. I read everything that comes to me when I have asked a question, and watch for signs, so I am good at picking up on outer messages. And some days, my entire day is a meditative one, with focus on my breathing and being 'in the moment' no matter what I'm doing.

Is there a way, other than this, for me to learn to accept that the voices are not me going crazy or imagining things and learn where specifically they are coming from, as well as how to hear them more clearly? Also, have I visited your Ashram recently?

Thank you for any information you can give me.

Many Blessings,
Patricia

 

Dear Patricia,

Yes to your last question. I have many places of teaching on the nonphysical levels, some of which you may experience as ashrams, or simply centers of learning. You study with me often, whether in the dream state or at levels beyond your usual conscious mind, and I see that you have picked up some memories from there.

Clearly you already are a channel when it comes to creating your art. But like many others, you find it harder to receive accurately and trust what comes to you in the form of words. This may be because most of you have limiting beliefs about yourselves and your reality, implanted in you at a very young age, and the words or sentences in which these beliefs are expressed clash directly with words you may be receiving from Source, your guides, or from your own higher Self. So it may be useful for you to do some work to let go of the specific beliefs you carry, two of which you have already stated: “I’m crazy (or people will think I’m crazy) if I believe in this inner voice,” and “I’m only imagining what I think I hear.”

It would be ideal if you could join a channeling class where you can discuss doubts and fears and where you had the opportunity to practice, and receive feedback and validation. Whether you are in a class or doing it on your own, practice, with an open mind, is the best thing. It is also very important to record whatever you think you are receiving. The more you practice and record, the more it will start to flow. Afterward, you can evaluate the accuracy and clarity of what you get. But, just as with an artistic process, rather than interrupt with censoring and evaluation as the process is occurring, it’s important to let the flow of channeling come and then evaluate it later. Validation can come either by evidence from the external world or from other people you may get information for, or by your own growing inner sense of what “feels right” to you.

So, more and lengthier practice, asking questions and recording what you get, could be your next step if you want to develop this ability. And, of course, not everything you hear inwardly is directly from Source or guides or your higher Self. Some of it may well be from your own unconscious mind, or your personal hopes and fears, and to be aware of the existence of these personal reactions within yourself is always essential in determining what source your material is coming from. As you practice, you will gradually develop your own inner “yardstick” for measuring whether you are on target with the information you’re getting, or whether it is solely coming from the personal concerns of your everyday self. This shouldn’t be too hard for you, since you have already developed a very strong and accurate “yardstick” to measure where your art is coming from. So you already know how.

If you can’t find a channeling class, and want extra help while doing it on your own, Andrea often recommends to her classes Sanaya Roman’s book Opening to Channel, in which the author offers steps to go through and shares her own experiences. You may also find it helpful to look over the letters on this web page, especially those I’ve written to others who are also trying to develop their ability to channel.

As to the practices you are already doing – the meditation and being present in the moment, as well as your art – congratulations! I am glad that you have made the efforts you have to open up space in your everyday life to be present to the larger realities around and within you. This is tremendously helpful to your progress on your path in life. And you are only one moment’s step away from resolving some of the remaining doubts and issues you’ve written about here. In the language of your everyday self, you are on the “right track.” (Of course, in the larger sense, you don’t need a “track” since You are already “there.”)

Please feel free, in meditation or before sleeping, to call on me whenever you need to. My blessings and help are always with you.

Vywamus

…I am writting to ask Vywamus is there such a thing as twin soul and if this is correct is there one for me at this moment? In this life time and if so, i can i know?
I know that is a simple thing to ask but i feel that there is a void in me, of cours being on my own for a long time, is not doing much for the moment...
Jacqueline


Dear Jacqueline,

So many of you ask about twin souls and soul mates, that I have decided to offer here some guidance on the subject. This longing for soul mates certainly reflects the loneliness and sense of incompleteness that many of you are feeling now. As a general answer, I would say that most of you do have a soul mate. Most often, one of you is in body and the other is between lives, but closely connected to you, and those soul mates between lives may be even more helpful to you than if you were to meet them in body. When you are both in body at the same time, you usually do meet each other, and you may have the glorious reunion you picture and hope for, but at other times this does not work out well, because of baggage either of you may be carrying, and your meeting up again incarnated may be painful and full of problems. Such problems do not occur if one of you is out of body. In that situation, the soul connection is uppermost and so your relationship can be at its most harmonious. If you have a soul mate who is not in body, you can often learn to have an internal dialogue or receive dream messages from him or her, and this can comfort you, help you grow, and help you toward a better relationship next time you are both in body.

To learn more about whether you yourself have a soul mate living in body now, and what the outlook is for meeting and creating a good earth life together, I always recommend that you have a personal reading with a psychic, channel, or other intuitive reader that you trust. It requires going into depth and detail beyond what can be done briefly on this web page.

As to the loneliness and sense of incompleteness, whether or not you find a soul mate in or out of body, these feelings in you reflect a passage you are going through on your spiritual path.They are a painful spur to help you get out of the old mindset that leads you to believe that you are separate, and that there is something or someone “out there" which will make you complete. You are complete. But to realize and enjoy your completeness, you must get beyond the level of your limited everyday self, which is usually so dominated by the narrow ideas of your mind/ego. If you stay in the limited mind focus, you will never be satisfied because you’ll be looking for your completeness and fulfillment in the wrong place. So, go beyond the everyday level into the infinitely deep and joyful level of your larger Self. On this ASK VYWAMUS page and on my NEWS page you can read a number of my suggestions on meditation and other ways to get beyond the level of everyday reality. When you spend time there in that larger Reality beyond the everyday, suffering disappears, and you will know without doubt that you are complete and that you are not alone, but are always held lovingly in the deep Aliveness that is the root of your being

Now, of course we guides know that even while you practice and enjoy being in that larger Reality, you still need company and love from other humans in the everyday world. You are not expected to lead a totally self-sufficient and isolated life. Sometimes after you let go of the need to be completed by another, a soul mate appears. Other times that does not happen but you realize that you have much support and love around you that you were ignoring while focusing on needing “the one and only” person. Or you realize that you need to focus for awhile on loving yourself, before you can let love in from others. Just be assured that you will have enough love, that love is being given to you, at this moment and always. Let it in, of course. But don’t expect the limited love of anyone to make you a complete person, that will not happen even if the soul mate shows up. No other can make you complete because you already are. You must let yourself move to the level where you can notice and acknowledge that. The bonus is that if you do that, any earthly relationships you do have will be much better than if you had put expectations on them that are impossible to fulfill.

I send my love and blessing to all of you who are working on relationships. That truly is one of the most rewarding, and demanding, experiences of being human.

Warmly,

Vywamus

Dear Viwamus!

Please, help me to realize my life purpose. What do i have to give to people, what have i come to share. I am thinking about it all the time, but there is nothing certain comes to my mind...I need your help very much. Give me clarity and clear vision of what are my possibilities, and what i should focus on.
Thank you very much for your help and light!
Aisylu

Dear Ailsylu,

You are certainly in the mainstream of those who are most ready to evolve at this time in human history. Right now, so many of you are unclear and wondering about your purpose in life and how you can best be of service in the world. My words to you are words to them also.

Do not doubt that you did come here for a purpose. You all came here to evolve yourselves, to eventually become enlightened, and this is your primary purpose in this life and others. All other purposes are secondary. And you can fulfill your primary purpose by being as fully present as possible with the light, the stillness, the deep aliveness that is at the core of your being. That is the main thing you are being asked to do, and I have given many suggestions about how to do this in responses to “Ask Vywamus” letters and on other pages of this web site. Please look these over.

As to your secondary purpose, your work in the world, do not be hard on yourself that you are not clear on it yet. You did not incarnate at this time simply to be put “on the shelf.” Yet for you and many others your purpose and work in the external world is not yet clear. This may have nothing to do with a lack of willingness or effort on your part. Sometimes, conditions in the world have not yet moved into place so that there is a clear path for you to know and follow. Or, there may be certain things you need to learn and experience first before starting on a definite path.

Meanwhile, you are not wasting your time. This time of uncertainty is also part of your path. In your everyday life hold yourself in readiness to notice opportunities where you feel drawn to help and to serve, and be present to all situations with a loving heart. (A loving heart is especially one of the things you personally have to give.) A pattern will eventually emerge, you will learn what you need to learn, your path will clear, and everything will be obvious. Just remember your primary purpose and your secondary one will grow from it.

Of course, I and the other guides will be working with you if you ask us to. We can sometimes get messages through to you in your dreams, or in moments of insight during the day. But whether you are able to notice us or not, we are always there, working with your energies and giving you our love.

Keep going. All is well,

Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,

I am struggling to overcome my disability/energy crisis and having challenges at home with my teenage son and his negativity/health challenges. Mostly I am expending my energy into maintaining the home/finances, but my heart desires to heal myself/family and extend healing/love energy outward. I am basically about ready to give up, because within my own strength I can't do it all! Am I destined to be a lightworker or should I just accept life as it is and be at peace and just let it all go?
Something has to give here, I am just not sure what that something should be!
Love and Light,
Laura Dewitt

Dear Laura,

Congratulations! Your feeling that something has to give, that you’re about ready to give up because you can’t do it all with your own strength – these are absolutely right and are actually very positive signs. This is definitely a phase on your spiritual path in which you are being asked to let go. Not give up, but let go. You are ready to let go of the old, restricting view of the world created by your mind and ego, and enter a new spaciousness at the soul level.

The challenges with your disability and energy, your son, your finances – these are simply temporary forms in the “laboratory” of your current life. They may bring you interesting, sometimes difficult, lessons that draw forth in you courage, love, and wisdom. But where you and so many others get stuck is in thinking that these challenges and “problems” are all there is to your life. Your mind and ego tell you that if you could only solve or get rid of these challenges, then you could really progress spiritually, and really be a light worker.

I see you as already a light worker. The problem is your not being aware of it. This lack of awareness usually comes from getting so caught up in the forms of everyday life that you don’t allow yourself enough time to be in touch with your own essence, your soul, the deep underlying aliveness in the core of your being.

You may already have some favorite ways of making space for your soul. It needn't take hours every day. Five minutes a day might be enough, if that’s what you have. I often recommend meditation, dancing and movement, creative work, enjoying the senses of your physical body, enjoying the company of people you like, letting healing energy flow – and don’t forget laughter. True laughter frees you in the space of one moment from the burdens that press down on you. You can read over my recommendations to others on this web page and see if there are some there that work especially well for you. However you do it, spending more time connecting with your soul will bring a shift inside so that you’re not so apt to get overwhelmed by everyday life problems. Some of them may even solve themselves. And from this place, you will eventually see your path more clearly, and any actions you need to take – whether about solving “problems” or about bringing your light to others -- will emerge.

Remember, nothing can prevent you from being a light worker right now, right here, because you already are. You are bringing your light to all these situations you have mentioned. And if you’re not always getting obvious results from bringing your light, don’t be fooled by this. Whether you realize it or not, your light is already spreading out and affecting all the people and situations you’re coming in contact with.

And, in the future it is very likely that your light work will take new forms, some of them more like what you picture now when you think of sending out love and healing in your family and the world. Meanwhile, please let go and relax about needing to achieve certain specific goals right now. Simply be open to the depths of your soul and your own inner wisdom, and the goals will come to fruition at the right time.

And lean on me and the other guides. We are always with you, always sending you our love and energy.

Affectionately,

Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,

Please guide me what is next step I need to take.
I feel lost for many parts of my life especially my carrer and
passion for the life.
If you can give me more specific direction and guide to next path
I really appreciate.

Thank You.
Hyosun Kim

Dear Hyosun Kim,

First, please be sure that I myself and your other guides are watching over you with loving concern. We are aware of your struggles, your efforts, your successes and what seem to be your failures. And we would like to applaud you – you have already put your finger on the key. In your particular situation, finding passion in life will bring about all the other things you need.

Now when you speak of passion in life, you may be talking of wanting to find a purpose, something to do that will be fulfilling and will inspire you to commit your time and energy and love to it. Or you may be talking about passion for life in general, the ability to feel enthusiasm, to take joy and pleasure in what’s going on.

Either way, my suggestion is the same: Do whatever you need to live more connected to Spirit and more connected to your body. This is key for you. You know well enough how to live in your mind, but that’s not all there is to you. If you live only in your mind, the rest of you starves, and your life becomes dull and passionless and, you may feel, not worth living.

On this Ask Vywamus page, I have made suggestions to Carmelo ( 5-15-2010) which you will also find apply very much to you. It is essential to make more space in your life to connect with Spirit, whether you do it in meditation or in other ways. And then there is your body. Right now, you are enough cut off from your body and emotions that is hard for you to feel passionate about anything. In particular, you need to breathe, to dance or in other ways move your body with awareness, and to notice all the sensations or feelings that come up. Simply accept and be present with them. Let them flow through your body. This will also allow the spiritual energies to flow through you more freely, and allow you to be more aware of them.

Both these 2 steps, connecting more with Spirit and with your body, will not only bring you more passion and enthusiasm in your daily life but will also make sure that you become more clear and excited about your purpose in your work and your path in life.

For more detail on how to get more in touch with Spirit and how to be more aware of opportunities for your work in the world, please look over my responses to “Ask Vywamus” letters from Carmelo, Diana (6-21-09), Pamela (11-29-09) and R. (3-28-10). Your own questions and struggles have many parallels with theirs. Take from them whatever you feel resonates with your own situation. Also see the News page on this web site for my message on 1-1-10 giving guidelines for further opening to Spirit and receiving higher guidance.

Finally, be aware that I and the other guides are already working with you in the dream state, whether you know it or remember it or not. We are always with you, and you have our unbounded love and support at all times, as much as you are willing to receive.

Warmly,

Vywamus

5/15/2010

Dear Vywamus,
I am writing to seek advise on the next step i should take during these psychic challenges which never seem to end.I was told to contact my guide but i find it difficult hearing messages.So i have decided to do a cleansing first.Is there any advise you have for me to overcome my challenges and succeed in my healing journey.Thank you.

Carmelo

Dear Carmelo,

Your question is certainly one of general interest. We guides at our level are very much aware of the suffering and confusion that you and many others are going through at this time. You are not alone.

The ending of the challenges you speak of and the healing you hope for -- those are certainly possible for you, and for others. But you cannot solve these problems at the level where they have arisen. You must go to the next higher level, beyond the limitations of the mind and ego, where you usually live, in order to dis-solve these problems. That means going into your deep inner being, into the infinite space and stillness within yourself, and simply being present there for periods of time or even just for moments during your day. If meditation works for you, that’s certainly one gateway into that infinite space. Other ways include going deeply into the body, being very present to your own sensations and your breath, or being present and aware with moving your body or dancing. And creative work, music and art, being in nature -- all these can be helpful to you in getting into that infinite space of Spirit I’m speaking of.

Being in that infinite place within yourself is a different way of problem solving than that of the mind and ego, which usually involves defining a problem, figuring out a strategy to solve it, then carrying out the necessary steps. Of course these are useful methods and I don’t recommend you throw them away. But there is only so far they can take you, particularly with the kind of problems of a deeply spiritual and emotional nature that you are writing about. Finding the right steps and going through them – this alone will not in the end help you to find the peace of heart and the wholeness you are seeking. Rather, when you can spend time in this infinite Space, connected with Spirit, and living in the aliveness of your larger Being, then you do begin to truly understand that the problems your ego feels trapped in are mostly an illusion. And as you stay in that Space, more and more of your “problems” and challenges will dissolve, and any steps you need to take will emerge right out of that state of Being.

Now, I am aware that when you, and others, feel beset by serious challenges, and have trouble hearing your guide, it may seem almost impossible to meditate or in other ways get to that infinite Space. So I usually recommend 2 things. Do pay attention to your emotions and do something physical to let them be expressed. Put on some music that reflects the mood you’re in or the feelings you’re having, and then move around to that music. Don’t forget to breathe. Let your emotions “flow” through your body as you do this. This is a way of “cleansing” the emotional body. Certainly your idea of doing a cleansing of the physical body is also a good one if you feel the need and it has helped you before. And often the dancing or moving to music will also help the bodily as well as emotional energies flow better.

The second thing I recommend is that if after dancing or movement you still find it hard to go into that larger Space, use aids to help you. When you feel very conflicted and distractible, listen to music that inspires you, or to recordings of guidance or meditations from some spiritual teachers. Often this will help bring you to this higher place. Do not get into recordings from teachers who give you a “package” of things to do to improve yourself, or “10 Steps to Enlightenment...,” etc. These may be useful at other times, but not for the purpose here. The purpose here is to go beyond “doing” steps and into “being.” This is what will help you move beyond this phase of suffering and beyond your present limitations to that higher level where your current problems will solve themselves.

Blessings to you, and we guides will be helping even at times when you have trouble realizing our presence,

Vywamus

3/28/2010

Dear Vywamus
I'm writing you to to ask a miracle of clarification of my husband K. life purpose and origins. He has difficulties in realizing his full potential as a light worker. Can you please give him direction and clarity regarding his life purpose and the gifts he has to offer and e can offer together as a couple.
thank you very much
Namaste
R.

March 28, 2010

Dear R.,

Your sincere wish to do good and be of service in the world is much appreciated by me, and by the other guides here, and both you and your husband have many gifts to offer. Thank you for your willingness to share your light! It is sorely needed.

First, I have already begun working with your husband and with you in the dream state. Do either of you recall “meeting” me there? Even if you don’t remember, I am with you, and the more you intentionally open yourself to my guidance, the easier it will be to listen inwardly and hear it even in your waking hours.

Next, I want to remind you that you and your husband each have a choice of many possible paths, and that, contrary to what some believe, there is no “one” path for which you are destined. Any path you choose in sincerity and openness of heart will eventually lead you where you are meant to go: Home.

What you ask for is not exactly a “miracle” of clarification, although at times when you are discouraged, it must seem that you need one. It simply requires some “homework.” To begin with, for some general guidelines for your husband and yourself on finding and following your particular path in the world, and learning what work you two may do together, I suggest reading, or rereading, my message of January 1, 2010, on the News page of this web site, and also the responses I have made on this “Ask Vywamus” page to Rebecca (11-30-09), Diana (6-21-09), and especially Pamela (11-29-09). If you apply these guidelines in your everyday life, you may well find insights, inspirations, and opportunities popping up right in front of you. And I would add that if you truly get into the process of learning and applying these guidelines it will be transforming for both of you. It is not just a means of getting to your path – it is an essential step on your path. As you evolve yourself in this way and become more of who you are meant to be, whatever you choose to do in the world – work, relationship, etc. – emerges out of who you are, and becomes a path of grace and joy.

After applying these guidelines for awhile, if you still feel you want to get into more detail about specific courses of action, blocks that may come up, and so on, I would recommend an individual reading or consultation with a reliable channel or someone else you trust. This would give your questions the time and attention and individual focus they deserve, more than is possible to do on this web page.

And whatever you do, remember, I am always with you to give love, support and guidance from our level. Call on me any time, and listen for me in your deep, wise Selves.

Blessings,

Vywamus

Hello Master Vywamus, thanks for sharing your energy and wisdom with me I saw an affirmation containing your name in it and I felt drawn into. I sensed your presence your presence as a green and yellow dreesed being. May I ask if you have any message for me and my path?
Arturo

Dear Arturo,

It is certainly no accident that you have written to me here. I am glad you were able to sense my presence, and perhaps you also sense, at your deeper levels, that I have been working with you in this lifetime and others. This is often in the dream state, but sometimes you are able to be aware of me when awake.

My first message to you is that you are very much loved and cherished, by me and by other teachers and guides at the level where I “live.” And, you are being called, as are many other humans at this time, to be in the forefront in humanity’s next evolutionary step. In a few words, this means beginning to consciously live in two worlds: the everyday world where your everyday self is accustomed to live, and the infinite reality beyond the everyday world where your infinite Larger Self has always lived. As more humans are able to gain this consciousness of living in both worlds, all of you humans will evolve into living as your true Selves, and your everyday world will also be amazingly transformed.

You have probably already had in your life some “peak” experiences, perhaps of great joy, or deep knowing or harmony with everything around you. These are times when you have been in touch with the Infinite that is beyond your mind and beyond your everyday world. The next step for humans is to be able to live in this state of consciousness all the time, even while going about your business in everyday life. As you probably know, there are many ways for you to deepen your ability to live more consciously in both worlds: meditation, body energy work, and creative work are some ways, use whatever works best for you. These practices can help you be more ready to perceive and experience the Infinite that is within and around you.

So first, make yourself available to the Infinite energies throughout your day, pay attention to being conscious of them whenever you can. Second, practice being conscious of and in tune with the Infinite, while carrying out your usual daily activities. Be conscious of living in both worlds at once. For most of you humans, this is what you are being asked to do at this time. This makes you a channel for the Infinite energies, so they are more easily accessed in your everyday world, by yourself and others. You are helping humanity evolve. And for each of you personally, letting yourself be this kind of channel can also be a tremendous opportunity for growth and can lead to many positive changes in your daily life and relationships.

Now, for some of you living at this time, actual specific tasks in the world may also arise -- teaching, healing, political activism, and so forth. Through these tasks you are asked to help to channel the Infinite energies into your everyday world in certain specific forms. If you are staying in touch with the Infinite energies throughout your day, you will be able to recognize these new tasks when they are truly part of your path, and be able to receive guidance on what actions to take.

So far, everything I have said applies to you, Arturo, and to many others in the world now who are invited to be pioneers of human evolution. For more guidance, you may all find it helpful to refer to my messages on the News page of this web site, and to my responses to others’ letters on this page.

For you personally, Arturo, there is more to come, and you will not always be in the life situation where you are now. Your own work in the world will be changing and deepening. As you go along, in tune with the Infinite energies as best you can be, it will be clear to you what forms your work in the world can take. You will always have choices , sometimes several “right” choices will appear. Stay in touch with the Infinite and make these choices with your heart. You will be guided. And know that we teachers and guides and your own Larger Self are with you every step of the way. Call on us any time.

Blessings,

Vywamus

Peace and Love Vywamus,

Periodically, I'll have dreams about people I'm familiar with, sometimes I know a few of their names, tell them I missed them and give em a hug, but I don't know them or see them in my waking life. What's going on? What questions should I be asking? I always in my dreams ask who they are because they are so familiar, but they won't tell me or smile it off.
Much Love,
Kelly Mu

Dear Kelly,

As you are aware, these are not your ordinary dreams. They contain significant messages to you from your soul, and from individuals who care about you, to help you along on your path in this lifetime. Some of the “characters” in your dreams are people you have loved, and/or are guides who are working with you. Often you have a sense of recognition of them, even at times when they don’t look exactly like themselves. In general I can say that these are messages of love, guidance and encouragement. And one reason you don’t get answers to your questions in the dreams is that the dream messages are much deeper than can be contained in words.

If you would like to get into more detail regarding these very rich dreams you can do some work with them in waking life. Here’s a suggestion: First, it’s helpful to write these particular dreams down after you wake up, even if you only recall fragments or feelings from them. Then, rather than trying question and answer, which you haven’t found works for you, see if instead you can focus on any one of the persons in the dream. Take time to see what you notice about that person, and how you feel about that person. How does he or she move you or affect you? Write this down…

Then imagine that you move over and “become” that person. Just be that person for a little bit. What is it like to be that person? What feelings do you have for Kelly? Why did you come into her dream? And so on.

Allow whatever comes. Don’t worry about whether you are “accurate.” Just let your heart be free to take in whatever seems to be there. Pay attention to any feelings that come up while you do this and let yourself experience them... And write that down too.

If you “relive” a dream this way in waking life, going back and forth between being yourself, and being the person in the dream, you will be much more open to receiving their message and their energy, and at a level much deeper than your mind. As you get more deeply into this kind of “back and forth” in processing a dream, a dialogue between you and the dream character may evolve (Write it down.), where you actually do get answers to your questions in words. But don’t press for words. Put your attention on the exchange of energy you feel with the person in the dream and you will be much more satisfied with your experience and much more satisfied with any words you do get.

If you choose to give some time to them, these dreams are a wonderful opportunity for you to communicate with guides, with loved ones at the higher levels, and with Spirit. And if you undertake this work I will be sending you some of my energy to help you. It will be an interesting adventure on your path!

Warmly,

Vywamus

Hi Vywamus

...hows it going? My names Tyson and I'm needing to know how can I remove the core fear matrix that is inside me along with the other psychic attachment garbage? I also read about your school thats in the inner planes..... your ASHRAM for Ascended masters in training... how can can i go there and shed my being from all negativity? As i have trouble visualizing and meditiating.... and also what is the most successful way in changing my core beliefs so they support my life and bring about positive thoughts and just a better reality? .
thanks mate.


Dear Tyson,

As you may guess, there are many schools on the inner planes to help you humans be active partners in your own transformation. In the dream state you are already going regularly to classes at the Ashram you speak of. If you make the intention to go there and remember it on awakening, you may be able to do so.

Let me remind you, every one of these classes has also a “lab,” which is the work you do in everyday waking life. You probably need no help in remembering what’s happening in the lab! While your soul grows into the higher energy levels at night, during the day emotional baggage such as the core fear matrix, the “other psychic attachment garbage” you mention, and other obstacles to your growth come right up to the surface to be noticed and worked on in the laboratory of your daily life.

There are many good systems for doing this work, including therapy, if you find a wise therapist. Whatever is compatible for you. The key is to be in and allow the present moment. This includes being present in your heart and body, of course, not just your mind – being present to whatever is going on, whether that is fear, or anger, or joy, or anything else. In any moment of fear, or any “negative” emotion, the smart approach is not to fight or try to get rid of or get away from whatever you think of as negative. Rather, express and feel a negative emotion in your body by movement or dancing. As you do this and actually allow the energy to flow through you, you will eventually notice that every “negative” emotion also has some positive kernel within it, some aspect of it that expresses something positive in you. It may be your wish to be, to be more alive, to be more fully yourself, or it may be something else. As you dance or move, take time to notice and accept whatever is positive about your “negative” feeling -- and see what happens.

As you continue this practice, you will also gradually experience that no matter what traumas and negativity you encounter in everyday life, there is also a You above and beyond them, a You who is always all right. Sometimes your spiritual practice is to hold awareness of both the personal “negative” experience and of the Self beyond it, and to accept them both, rather than make the negative go away. As the positive kernel in every seemingly negative situation becomes clearer, it’s easier to hold both.

If you can do this whenever negative emotions come up (or when positive ones do!), you have no need of other kinds of visualizing and meditating. With our help, the more you accept your own emotional reactions to the daily events that arise, and let them flow through your body, in movement or dance, the freer the higher spiritual energies will be to move through your body without obstacles, so that you can live and walk in Spirit more and more of your day. There is no higher form of visualization or meditation than this.

You have my love and support in these efforts, and that of other guides who are working with you.

Blessings,

Vywamus

Dear Vywamus

During a recent meditation I had after asking about my son's spirit guides, a male energy appeared to me that looked blue with purple eyes and white hair that was shaped in a square. This image appeared and felt like it was pulsating energy towards me, it looked odd, but not scary. It definitely seemed not from this earth or not in human form. Am I going crazy? I do not know what to make of this vision. When reading Doreen Virtute Archangels, and Ascending Masters book I came across the section where she mentioned the name Vywamus, and immediately remembered the vision. So is this you coming to me or another being making trying to make contact?

-DeAna


Dear DeAna,

I have been working with you for some time, much of it in the dream state, and I am pleased that you picked up my energy so easily in meditation, and had enough confidence in your intuition to connect with my name. No, you are not going crazy – simply opening up more to the realities beyond the physical. This is part of your birthright as a human, to be able to live simultaneously in both “worlds” – the physical everyday world you all acknowledge, and the infinite world of Spirit which is also your true home.

Your vision is a signal to you from your higher self that you’re ready for a fuller and more conscious contact with me and other guides if you wish it. If you undertake this, you will experience this contact in a variety of ways, and the pace can be as rapid or as slow as is comfortable for you. On the Newsletter page of this web site I have made some suggestions about opening to the reality of Spirit and to guidance from the spiritual levels. Some of these practices you are already following. As you continue to practice, your ability to hear me and other guides will become more clear and accurate and you will feel more grounded in your approach.

Remember, I and others are always available when you call us.

Blessings to you,

Vywamus

Dear Vywamus
I have been opening to spirit all year very subtly but find it difficult to make a real connection and think sometimes that I am making things up in my head. I happened to fall upon your name yesterday and thought I sensed you around me but wasn’t sure. Will I continue to open up to receive clear messages or will my communication always be this sublte and just “in thought?”
Thank you for your help
Rebecca

Dear Rebecca,

Yes, I was around you at the time you mention, and other times as well. I am glad you have written to ask about this.
First, I would say, you are in exactly the situation that many other evolving humans find themselves at this time. Having been brought up in the old framework of identifying with mind and ego, the first steps of breaking out of this old and limiting mindset often seem cloudy and uncertain. You have been taught to live in a “reality” where only concrete things are considered “real,” and where the only way of understanding your world is through the mind. To break out of this limiting pattern you have to develop your inner receptors so you can be aware of the energies around and within you that are beyond the physical and the mental. This is what has begun to happen for you in your opening up to Spirit, and it can continue, if you want it, to a level where you have a much greater sense of clarity and certainty about what is “coming through.”

There are several things which may help. Some of them you are doing already. And, since a number of others who wrote in have similar concerns, I’ve placed, on the Newsletter page of this web site, some general guidelines for all of you. Please use whichever of these suggestions resonate with you to assist your further opening of yourself to the energies of Spirit. I am always available to you when you call on me, and your ability to “hear” me will improve significantly as you practice.

Blessings,

Vywamus

Hello from Ireland,

In the past, I had a number of "experiences" that lead me to read more about Vywamus and other Beings and other Worlds. I would say that Vywamus, along with Djwal Khul, helped me step out of the fear and also helped me "remove stuff" that kept me in fear. For that I am grateful beyond words. Since then, however, I have seriously doubted myself for one reason and another. I would like to think that I am an awakened being and perhaps someone with a mission and purpose, but so far, nothing seems to be happening that would indicate that. I was quite "delusional" about myself thinking I may be someone important in this crazy world! How can I be sure what I am here to do and accomplish? I seem to have no discernible gifts or purpose although I am waiting for something, I don't quite know what, to happen.
Thank you for this opportunity to write to you and thank you, Vywamus, for your help in the past, I still call on you when I need help!
Regards,
Pamela Davis

Dear Pamela,

You are in a period of gestation – a time of questioning and doubt waiting to know your next step -- which occurs with everyone on a spiritual path, usually more than once. Have no doubt that there is a purpose for which you have incarnated here, and that your soul is already moving toward fulfilling it, even if your mind does not see it clearly as yet. As various conditions in your life and within you come together, you will also have some “answers” for your mind about what has been going on. Meanwhile, you can help the process along by removing certain obstacles and by learning to more easily recognize the subtle cues that are nudging you along on your true path.

With some obstacles you have already made great progress, in stepping out of fear, for example. Another obstacle that many of you face right now is the limiting mental framework in which you were brought up. In this framework, the importance of your accomplishments is judged by material standards such as power, fame, and wealth. Yet most of you on spiritual paths at this time have “been there, done that” in other lives already. You have been leaders, or well known, or powerful in other ways and made an obvious mark on the events of your time and place. That was the old form of being important and making a difference in your world. Now, in this phase of human evolution, it is time to step out of the old, narrower way of thinking and into the realization that you are an infinite being, and that Infinity expresses itself in all you do. Every least thing you do, whether it seems “important” to you or not, is Infinity acting in you, and it influences all of humanity and all of your world.

How do you decide which things to do? There are already, or will be when you notice them, certain situations which present themselves in your everyday life, choices to be made and so forth, and if you approach each of them in a sense of oneness with the Infinity in you, you will usually feel an inclination to make one choice rather than another. Based on that choice, another choice point will arise, and soon, if you continue to make these “little choices” in a way consistent with the Infinity within you, you will sense you are being led on your true path. You often may not have a complete vision of your mission at the start, but only of the next step that seems right to take. Then, at a certain point, you may look back and see where all these “little steps” have been leading you and how they are coming together, and at that point you may have a clear vision of the whole.

Yet now while you are in the midst of uncertainty, do not think that nothing is happening. Everything is happening! Just stay at one with the Infinite in you, and make the choices that feel right in the moment. If you’re doing that, you’re already fulfilling your soul’s purpose whether your mind knows what it is or not. And eventually your mind will catch up and you will also see with your mind’s eye exactly what is your purpose and what you are and will be contributing to the world.

I and other guides are always with you to help you along on your path, with our energies and our guidance. You may wish to read the section on Guidelines for Further Opening to Spirit and Receiving Higher Guidance on my Newsletter page in this web site for more suggestions. Some of these suggestions you are following already, but others you may wish to try out. Meanwhile, please keep calling on me or other guides whenever you need us. It is our pleasure to help you along.

Hello-I have received visions of a big blue eagle/bird and I believe he is my guide. I keep wanting to call him "Wu", are you the same entity? This being is very kind and gentle yet very powerful, thank you for any information you can provide.

Most radiant blessings, Cecilia~


Dear Cecilia,

Yes, I am one of your guides, and “Wu” is another. The vision you received was of both of us. We often travel together, and humans perceive us in different forms at different times. The blue is a color frequency I often use. The eagle form stands for wide vision and the ability to soar, but also when the eagle comes to its nest it nurtures its young and keeps them under the warm feathers of its wings.

We sent you this vision because you were ready to receive it. We appeared to you in this particular form to encourage you to soar in the spiritual realms, even more than you already do, and also to convey that you are under our “wings” – our care and guardianship -- when you feel you need it. It is one of my missions on earth at this time in your evolution to help all of you know that you can soar into the higher spiritual levels, which are your real home. And the entity you know as “Wu” has had many lives on earth, one of them as an ancient Chinese physician actually named “Wu.” His work in particular is to help those of you who are evolving with the bodily healing and adjustments you need to make as your world and your bodies change to a higher frequency.

You can call on either or both of us at any time of the day, or ask for us to visit you at night in the dream state. We are always available to give you our love and guidance!

Blessings from myself and Wu,

Vywamus

It touches on some points that may be of interest to other readers. I invite you also to let me or Vywamus know if you have opinions on this subject

Dear Andrea,

In the “Ask Vywamus” section of your web page, you shared a reading you did for “Natoya”. Part of the response was “you will need an individual session”. As a student of Janet McClure and Saemmi Muth for many years, Vywamus always said that we “need nothing”. Also, to suggest that an individual session is needed really makes me wonder if you weren’t “advertising for profit” during a “channeled” session.

Looking forward to your reply.

Morgan


Dear Morgan,

You make some important points. I agree we truly “need nothing,” that we and our reality are perfect in every moment, and that when we are able to go deeply within ourselves, all answers are there, and there are not even any questions that need answering. Yet, in our everyday world few of us are always able to access this deep wisdom of our being -- or, if we do, our ego comes in and raises doubt, and we sometimes look for “more objective” input to validate our deep knowing.

I believe humanity is evolving a consciousness to include a connection with Spirit that will encompass this deep knowing all the time. Then, a column like “Ask Vywamus” will be redundant. As this happy condition has yet to come about for most of us, we still have columns or web pages like this one for questions, and we still have individual sessions.

In my channeled response from Vywamus to Natoya, the emphasis is on encouraging her and suggesting ways she can access her own inner wisdom and her own connection with Vywamus to answer her question. If she wants more detail and depth than she arrives at by these methods, or by reading this column, then she might in that sense have the "need" of an individual session for additional assistance. That is the spirit in which the word "need" was used here.

As regards individual sessions and readings, there are often times when I think it’s good to consider that option, when you’ve done all you think you can on your own. It’s certainly a different experience than working in the core of your deep Self, and different from receiving a brief answer in this column. In individual sessions, at least when he is working with/through me, Vywamus likes to converse back and forth with someone and help draw out their own inner wisdom as well as offering his own. That requires a more in depth dialogue than I can offer on our "Ask Vywamus" page, especially when specific issues of work, relationships, direction in life, and health are to be addressed in detail.

When you raise the question of self advertising, you refer to Vywamus’s response to Natoya where he says, “For more detailed answers…you would need an individual session.” He made a similar suggestion in a letter to another reader. I acknowledge I did not realize until you pointed it out that the wording might be unclear, or the statement might need elaboration. I’m sure that in these responses Vywamus simply intended to point out, through me, that when dealing with complex life issues, having an individual session could be helpful in getting more depth and detail. This individual session would not necessarily have to be with me channeling Vywamus, or even with Vywamus coming through another channel, it could be with any qualified person. And of course, it would be up to the reader whether to follow through on that suggestion. In my experience, Vywamus is always respectful of a person's ability to make their own decisions, and while he points out possibilities to try, he never tries to talk anyone into anything, including an individual session. I try to follow his lead.

I do welcome people who want to use my services as a channel, and of course I do advertise myself elsewhere on my web site, that’s one of the reasons I have it. Yet I consider the "Ask Vywamus" page to be a special place on the web site, in a way set aside from the others, and not for advertising. It is not my intention to try to “drum up business” for myself here. Rather, my goal on this page is purely to give Vywamus an avenue to communicate and offer help and support to readers in various ways, and to stimulate interest and discussion among us about the spiritual energies that affect our lives.

I thank you for expressing your concern and alerting me to the inconsistencies.
I agree that transparency of our motives is essential and especially in the field of spirituality.

Please write back about this if you wish.

Cordially,

Andrea

Hello Vywamus,

By the intermediary Saint-Gabriel in April, I learned of you. I will like to ask you the following question: what do I have to do to receive the messages which I (need) to write about the (presentation) of CACD ? Am I able to carry out this (presentation) to announce the light? … How can I proceed in truth and love?
Thank you very much.

Corinne from Paris

Dear Corinne,

Thank you for your question, I am glad to hear from you. In order for me to more clearly channel an answer for you from Vywamus, can you tell me what is CACD, and what is the work you are trying to do with it?

Thank you,

Warmly,

Andrea Seiver


Dear Andrea,

CACD is a (presentation) which speaks about the awakening of the conscience of humans. CACD is a play on words. It stands for "Coeurs A Corps D... " which in French can also be understood as "Coeurs Accordés" or in English "Hearts in Accord". (In my work) I put the accent on the body, with Tai Chi Chuan and the elements of nature, as well as dances coming from the four corners of our planet. The whole is accompanied by words of … light.

I would like to be inspired by great wisdom …, or to do automatic writing. Either way, I do not want to tell silly things and I check myself. I have lived sometimes luminous and sometimes traumatizing events in other dimensions, and I know. Yet to know is not to know how to say it. And I wish to say it to a greater number of hearers with simplicity and clearness. I feel able to do this but not without some counsel and a guide for informing me on finding luminous words. I do want to avoid the pitfalls of the ego.

…Only one presentation is envisaged in Paris on March 10, 2010, and I still haven’t written anything. Also, the organization which proposed it to me (http://www.panoramixe.eu/) doesn't yet have the budget. Is this a good organization to carry out this project? I do not doubt the person who contacted me but now I cannot do it without money and I fear a little on this level.

Thank you very much in advance and all my respect for your works and Vywamus.

Corinne


FROM VYWAMUS:


Dear Corinne,

First of all, I and the other guides and teachers at my level enjoy your little play on words with the CACD/"Coeurs A Corps D"/"Coeurs Accordes!" We thank you for the work you are doing in helping humans see what they may become, and evolve into that vision. The forms you have chosen to work with at this time -- the elements of nature, the dances, Tai Chi, and so on -- will resonate with many people who have been suffering because of the emptiness of their everyday lives, or because they are stuck in their egos and their intellects. You can give them new hope, and a sense of their own aliveness which many lack right now.

In writing or in making a presentation, your own being and the way you embody the energy you are trying to bring through to others are more important than the particular forms or words you choose. If you go deep into the core of yourself -- as you often are already doing with meditation or movement -- and you then carry that core Energy into your interactions with others and your presentations, then the "right" form and the "right" words to impact those persons and those situations will come to you effortlessly. So, in communicating with others, it is being in the Energy that is most important, and the words or movements ride along, like foam on top of a wave. This takes some practice to do consistently while communicating with other people. And I promise you it will be very rewarding...

As long as you stay true to that core Energy, any words you receive in that state (as you call them, "luminous words" and as Andrea might call them, "channeled words") will be clear and will reach into the heart of anyone who is ready to hear them. This is true whether they are spoken words or written. Sometimes such words seem very simple and obvious to you, but be trusting: if you let them come from that place of deeper Energy within you, the words will be just what your hearers need to hear. They will never be silly, because the Energy carrying them is true and deep. And of course, you will avoid the pitfalls of the ego.

As of now, the probabilities look good for having the money needed for panoramixe well before March. Yet even if that changes, do look for all other possible ways to get your work out to the public. It is important work, and you are much needed.

We here send you our ongoing love and support in all you do.

Blessings,

Vywamus

(Dear Vywamus)

Was that you that I channeled while meditating?! Do you have a message about health and career for me?
Infinite love Vywamus

Dear Natoya,

Yes, we have met a few times, and in other lives as well as this one. You did pick up my energy while meditating, and I touch in with you often in the dream state as well, whether or not you remember it. If you continue to meditate, or if you pose me a question before going to bed at night, I can often bring you an image or words which will be meaningful in answering your question. Just take whatever image you get in a dream after posing the question, (even if it is a picture of a bowl of onion soup!) and write it down. In meditation later I can give you other images to help clarify the dream image.

You can use this method to ask me your questions about health and career, or anything else. In this way I can often help you when your own reasoning and common sense don't seem to be enough.

For more detailed answers to your health and career question, you would need to have an individual session. But I can tell you in general, that as regards career, whether you are working now, laid off, or working and thinking of a change, you are much needed in the world at this time to do what you are most inclined to do. Many of you these days are being pulled into work that will help in humanity's evolution, whether this is paid work, or work that you do "on the side" while you are in a more conventional job setting. So listen inwardly, and in the dream state, and allow yourself to be pulled in the direction you find. This will help you take the first steps in what you need to do. And, a fringe benefit: Not only will you find life more fulfilling by following these inclinations, it's also good for your health. You have access to greater energy, and to the healing or easing of physical ailments you may have.

Above all, remember you are not alone. Many others are being pulled along, as you are, for the good of humanity. And we guides at our level are always there for your support.

Warmly,

Vywamus

Hi,
I like to know what is my scope in this life and what are the jobs, reference to this.
Thanks,
Diana

Dear Diana,

Your questions are important ones, and they are questions many others are concerned about in these times. Here in this letter I can offer you some general principles on how to move toward answers to these questions. You may find, however, that because these questions are so central in your life right now, they deserve the time and attention and individual tailoring to your needs that would be part of a conversation with me during an individual session. On the other hand, applying these general principles may bring you enough success that you have no need of an individual session.

As to your scope, the scope of your life on earth, each of you has a main path and one or more personal paths to follow. Your main path is to learn how to live in touch with the deep aliveness that is within you and in all things, a deep aliveness that you may call Universal Love, or All that Is, or Spirit, or God. You do this in many ways, but essentially it is by being in the moment every moment and simply accepting what is. There are many fine writings and classes in meditation and other forms to help you begin to do this, so I need not go into that here. When you live that way, even in the midst of everyday concerns, you make your life easier and you help advance the unfolding of the greater consciousness of humanity. So this is the main mission of every one of you on earth, and the form of what you choose to create in your everyday life is less important. If you are following your main path, the forms you need in your personal life arise more easily and you notice them more readily.

Now as to your personal path, be aware that you do create your own reality, but you are not alone in doing so. You are always working within circumstances and conditions created by the collective human energy field of all of you creating together. You have influence in that, of course, sometimes a great deal of influence, but yours is not the only influence. So, for example, because of circumstances in the United States, and how you have all collectively designed it so far, someone living in the U.S. would have much more difficulty finding a job as a shepherd than as a data entry operator or a mail carrier.

In general the best approach to job hunting is to first let your mind do some ground work: What interests do you have, what are you inclined toward, even if you have had no training? What would you not want to do? What kind of circumstances would you like to work in, and which would be unacceptable to you? What kinds of openings might there be in the area where you live, and how willing are you to relocate if there’s nothing near you? And so on all commonsense steps that you may have already taken.

Next, put that aside for a bit and go below the surface level of everyday concerns, deeply within yourself, to your own core energies. Bathe in these energies. This is the soul level. Ask there that what is for the good of yourself and for all will come to you. That you be guided into finding work in the everyday world that is most congruent with the path of your soul.

Then, come back, and look for clues in your everyday reality. Be alert. Many signs and hints will pop up that may lead somewhere. At first, don’t throw out any of them. Let your mind accept all these possibilities. To decide which of these possibilities to follow up, go to your heart (your emotions) and your body feelings about the option you’re considering. (Your mind, if consulted alone, may like one job possibility very much and consider it the most practical, but if you have a sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach when you think of that kind of job, do listen to that feeling and explore it.) An important decision like this should be made with all of yourself body, heart, mind, and spirit. And don’t fall into the trap of believing that whatever you choose as your next job is a place where you will have to stay it may merely be a stepping stone to position you for the next step that’s right for you.

At all times, keep staying in touch with the core or soul level, to keep yourself on course, and because that level is where all realities are created. Remember, the more you focus on your main path, the more likely you are to effortlessly bring forth energies that will clear and strengthen your personal path in the everyday world.
And remember, we guides at my level are always available to support you if you call on us.

My blessings to you,

Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,
In a spiritual work here in Brazil, I saw a huge energy protecting the work and the house too, and I cried of emotion and bliss. A name came to me: Vywamus. I never heard that name, than I google it... and I came to here. Was that you??
In divine friendship,
Rose

Dear Rose,

Yes, that was myself that you perceived, and a number of other guides who work with me. We are always working to protect and aid your good work, and that of other good people in the world. But not everyone sees us.

You saw and experienced our presence because you were ready. Your heart and mind are open to us. You received my name, Vywamus, one unexpected and unfamiliar to you, to prove to you that this experience was genuine and not one that you could have simply imagined on your own. If you had imagined it, you might have come up with Mary or Jesus, or some other familiar name. Instead, it occurred as it did -- that my name came to you, you reached out and found me here, and I’m now responding to you -- as a confirmation that what happened to you is authentic and real.

Please take the bliss you received from feeling my presence and that of the other guides into all the moments of your everyday life. We are always with you, and you’re always living with us in that state of bliss, even when you focus your attention on everyday matters.

Thank you for seeking me out, and for sharing this experience of yours.

Many blessings,

Vywamus

Dear Vywamus,

What’s the most important thing you want us to know at this time?

Vywamus: That you are more than you think you are. It’s easy to experience that you are a person in a body, living in a particular place and time, with limits and in particular life circumstances that you may or may not like. Yet you need to know and truly realize that you are an eternal, totally alive being who can never be limited. To be human is to learn to experience being both limited and limitless. As you do so you begin to emerge from your feeling of restriction, suffering, striving, and, yes, boredom. Your vast energies are free to bring about changes you have hoped for in your life and in the world around you.
