Where Doubt Comes From


There is an entire system of thinking that the Main Stream Media is part of. We've were taught as children to believe authorities, for example, so there are many people who are not able to think for themselves. This is where doubt comes from: wanting to believe authorities versus wanting to think for yourself.


The MSM is part of a system of thinking. We've been taught to believe authorities and doubt comes from wanting to strike out and believe yourself instead of authority. That's their advantage. They've trained our minds.


Ivo: This is correct. It is not normal for a human being to experience doubt. We do not doubt ourselves.
Me: How do you learn?
Ivo: We learn through love, a totally different way than most on your planet are accustomed to.
As for doubt, it is the feeling so many experience when they move away from the Matrix narrative to begin to think for themselves. Will you make mistakes? Of course you will. But there is no shame in making mistakes, not as you have learned. If one shames you for making a mistake, they must believe you are perfect then. This is illogical. Yes, children are part of perfection, the perfection of All That Is, of Creation, however in learning your earth's system they will make mistakes. These mistakes are the resistance of their soul attempting to stop them from buying into the false narrative the parents are attempting to teach them. What the parent teaches the child will seem illogical to the child because of the disparity in frequency.
Me: Yes, I was extremely confused. My parents seemed to think it was a cinch but I frustrated them because I was a slow learner and kept bawling all the time because I resisted what they taught me. When I was a teenager I was seething in anger. I became very sarcastic and gave them a lot of grief. I fought with them until I was 40, constantly, because they continued to try to indoctrinate me into their false way of thinking. So when I was in my 40's, I walked away, never to see my father again. Some of us will give up a lot for peace of mind and to live in our truth. I know what they taught me got me into recovery for many addictions, so I knew they taught me a way of living that would either cost me my life or my sanity. So I figured it was them or me, and I chose myself for a change. One of the last conversations I'd had with my father was over the book, "Bringers of the Dawn," and he asked if he could read the book. Why else would I have that book other than because it pertained to me? He at least knew at that time who I was and why I was born and maybe why I had to do things my way.
Ivo: Recently, it was reported that many children do not see life as being logical. This is due to the higher levels of consciousness being born onto your planet now. This is refreshing. These children are being primed to walk away from the system and to create a system that makes sense to them, and as the level of frequency on your planet continuously rises, new changes will be made to reflect the higher level of consciousness in the collective. Amen to that.
It is difficult for any being to live within a system that makes no sense to them. Of course you will err. Of course you will doubt yourself. I say to you that your low self esteem comes from believing in these false tenets, not your soul. Children, before the age of 7, are already acclimatized to the Matrix and are moving away from soul, or such has been the case until now. This is a tragedy.
Doubt is created in the mind of the child when their inner voice says one thing and their outer experiences and teaching indicate another.
In the same vein, as one matures and begins to move away from the Matrix, doubt is again created in accessing the soul's words.
Sharon has helped people to stop doubting themselves. It is important that they do so. We insist people stop listening to convenient "experts" who are paid shills, put in place to continuously preach the mainstream narrative to you and to keep you from accessing your soul.
The soul is wise. It knows your truth and it has a plan that you must follow throughout your lifetime on earth. When you are at odds with the soul's voice, it is because the Matrix teachings you have learned are interfering with your soul connection. In times when you are in pain, you are facing away from soul and allowing the Matrix narrative to lead you astray.
Learning to listen to soul, and to follow its wisdom is often difficult as these are new messages that may not make sense to you. You will doubt. You will doubt your soul and you will doubt the part of you you mistake for yourself. Getting clear is the best advice. Sitting with it until the path becomes clear, asking your soul for help while continuing to ignore the mainstream narrative, is the way to go.
Soul is peaceful. Soul takes time. Avoid knee jerk reactions because this is ego intervention. Think about how you wish to react. Take time. If you do not know, say so and say you will respond later. Do nothing and re-connect with soul through meditation. Higher guidance comes into the peaceful mind; not the mind of turmoil and chaos. Calm your mind and listen for guidance.
Learning to validate the self is important in this world today where everyone wants to tell you how to think and act. It is tantamount to being authentic. Sharon has advised many people to err on the side of validation. Instead of instantaneously believing your experience to be false, instantly believe it to be true, even if you are not sure. This way you will attract more experiences to you that are true. When you continue to say this is false, you will not magnetize true experiences. You will magnetize nothing as falseness does not exist. When you continue to validate yourself as true, you will magnetize more real experiences to you because you believe this to be possible. And it most definitely is.
Me: I keep saying that doubt is the dark ones' playground. Never doubt yourself. Choose one thing or another but don't sit in doubt because that's where they've got you.
Ivo: This is true. If you believe you have seen a reptilian in your minds' eye, validate that. If you believe you may have seen a UFO, then validate that as real. If you believe you have experienced a timeline jump, then validate that because in future you will experience more timeline jumps and be conscious of it. What you focus on grows. You know these things exist as we speak of them all the time. They are real. And you will experience more of this reality when you validate your experiences as being real.
Me: I'll play devil's advocate here. What if someone validates something that is false as being true?
Ivo: It does not matter because you are indicating that you wish to experience this and so it will be put into motion that you will. Sometimes hurdles must be overcome for circumstances to be perfect to do so, but in fact you will get your wish. Wishing to experience the truth is the highest request that can be made.
Me: What if someone has listened to a psy op and believed their lies to be true? Then what?
Ivo: The soul will provide evidence to the contrary. It is a question of being open to the idea that you were in fact tricked. It is a question of believing that you can be wrong. Your egos do not like the idea of being wrong, and you must be humble enough to overcome this. There is much trickery around as you know, many are out to deceive as this is a consciousness war between the truth and deceit, and you must be open enough to correct any mistakes you have made. When you refuse to believe you made a mistake, you remain unteachable. There is no shame in error. If you feel shame, this must be dealt with. This will often harken back to the days when your caregivers overran your soul with their own limited teachings and taught you to be someone you were not.
Me: Yes, sad. But we all underwent that.
Ivo: And it must be undone. Your soul is always moving you ever-closer to the truth. This means distilling your personality to eliminate the flaws that keep you believing the lies. This is a reversal of what you learned as a child.
If in fact you are prone to be a liar, then you will fall for lies. If you tend to be as truthful as possible, you will be of higher frequency and will gravitate towards more truth. It is frequency-related.
Me: Thank you Ivo.
Ivo: My love, the Lightworker has work on their hands but it can be done. It is a question of being willing to change oneself.

Your Integrity


Who you feel you are shows in your behaviour, your actions. ~ Ivo


Me: Ivo, I know you can tell I'm really honoured to have channeled El Morya about his past lives. I'm so impressed by his insistence on sticking to what he believed in in these lives instead of bowing down to his king. The king is supposed to be the be all and end all of the power structure in well, any kingdom, and all are supposed to obey the king. Especially in medieval times like when Thomas Becket (1100) and Thomas More (1500) were alive. You didn't disobey. But he did because he put one thing before the king: God.
And that was the whole issue. The king was playing god, and so the Thomases realized this and refused to become yes men and ended up being executed in both lives, because they refused to give up their belief that God is number one. That's a blue ray for you. Blue Rays are incarnated to express the power of God. El Morya is the chohan of the first ray of the will of God. He represents the godly attributes of courage, certainty, power, forthrightness, self-reliance, dependability, faith and initiative. And he sure did in these lifetimes. As Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, he was being hit with swords in the head and he still held himself upright so that he could say his last words to God before he was overcome, and died. I'll bet he thanked God for giving him that lifetime and that opportunity even! I'll have to ask him. I can see him smiling. I did read that as Thomas More, as he stood at the guillotine, the operator asked his forgiveness, and he forgave him before he was beheaded. He was amazing!
This man is amazing! I kept thinking, "Where was he when I was available?"
Ivo: (laughing) He is disincarnate, my love.
Me: I know! Geez, and I keep complaining about the path I'm on.
Ivo: And when you complain, it gets worse.
Me: True. Learn to love it and to see it differently. "What am I being shown?" "What am I to learn from this?" This man, Thomas More, spent 16 years on death row in the Tower of London before he was beheaded! He never wavered. Had he given in, his life would have been spared.
Oh! I hear him now. He told me had he done so, his life would have been worthless, meaningless. For nought. I think God sent him to stand up to the king and to send a message to humanity, which frankly, because he was martyred and made a saint, is still known today.
Ivo: Had he not incarnated to do these lifetimes, the fate of earth would have been sealed long ago, my love. As Ashtarrr said in his book, many lightworkers have incarnated intermittently throughout your history to steer its course. And that El Morya is of such a high light, it was important to send someone whose light could counter the darkness that would have befallen your world had the Thomases not been there.
Me: Ah I see.
Ivo: You understand as well that he was complemented when you said you would have gladly spent a lifetime with a man like him.
Me: I know. He passed back to me the importance of committing yourself to another person for a lifetime. This is a commitment of learning, and certainly a commitment to God as well.
Ivo: Yes.
Me: It's not always fun and games.
Ivo: No. But the worse a relationship, the more learning there is to do and the more powerful one can ultimately learn to become.
Me: Yes. So, with this incredible example of integrity, shall we get on with it?
Ivo: I would like to mention to you, my love, your acts of integrity in the same vein as El Morya.
Me: I was never sent to the guillotine, so I don't think that they are the same.
Ivo: They are. You refused to be sucked into the corporate claptrap that was spewed out at the Town Hall Meetings, and the times the CEO came from the States to hand out Christmas bonuses. You refused to attend.
Me: True.
Ivo: There was the time this same CEO held a luncheon meeting in the lunch room and you refused to attend.
Me: That was my lunch hour, sacred time. I figured if they wanted to lecture to me, they should pay me for it.
Ivo: This is standing up on principle, my love. You delineated very clearly earning money from your morals. They were separate, and unlike the others you worked with, you would not cowtow to presidents in the name of earning a salary. In the same vein, you would not kiss your bosses.
Me: Nope, no part of them. LOL
Ivo: You believed that you worked with these men and did their administration, it was their wives' job to kiss them, not yours.
And right now, who has the back of her car plastered with bumper stickers standing up to the New World Order, and signs saying the government is attempting to control you.
Me: Me. I probably look like a raving lunatic but I don't care. It gets people's attention.
Ivo: This is my point, my love. You show integrity in many things that you do. One of the first steps to integrity of self is not caring what others think.
Me: True.
Ivo: During the time there was the black out in Toronto, you had to do laundry and refused to use the laundry machine in your apartment because it was after 9 p.m. You had the rest of the tenants beholden to this 9 p.m. curfew because you lived next to the laundry room and you would not fly it in their face when the first opportunity came up as an excuse to break the rule. You would not like them doing their laundry till 1 a.m. that night either, so you did not do it.
Integrity is about being given the opportunity to steal and refusing to. You returned the plastic box you'd purchased that had an extra stuck underneath that was not noticed at purchase.
There was the time your ex-brother in law was trying to pick the lock on your sister's apartment door. She knew he was there as this was the third time he'd tried to break in, so she ran downstairs to look. She called the police while you ran into the kitchen to get the largest knife you could find. You ran downstairs to threaten him with it through the glass door, which was still locked. This lock did not give way because of the divine help you had that night. Archangel Michael is as good as keeping a lock locked as he is at protecting you from negative entities while you bathe.
Me: LOL I never thought of that. Buddy should've known how to pick a lock, especially an old one like that. Interesting....
Ivo: He did not get in, and you did not have to knife him. Thankfully. This would perhaps have led you off your life's course and it had to be prevented. However, you defended your sister, who was scared witless, and your nieces against this threat. Thankfully, things calmed down in the ensuing years.
Me: He's the only person who I've had to threaten with a knife.
Ivo: You moved in 3 months later in the apartment underneath hers, and the break-ins stopped, not surprisingly, and peace ensued. Do you see the effects of the lightworker on the world?
Me: Hmm. Never thought of that either. Maybe he was just scared because he thought I was a knife-wielding looney?
Ivo: My love, you must learn to think beyond the small mindedness of your Matrix.
Me: I would've done it, though, to defend my sister.
Ivo: And that is why Michael intervened.
Me: He's probably thinking I'm high maintenance by now. LOL
Ivo: You are worth it, my love. You always help wherever you can. You must understand that most people would have moved elsewhere, not under the apartment of a woman who is being harassed by a psychotic ex. But you thought nothing of it.
Now onwards....You refuse to manipulate people even though they do the same to you.
You would drive someone to the hospital that you could not stand simply because they needed a ride.
Me: I would. I wouldn't let them suffer.
Ivo: These are all signs of integrity.
Integrity goes both ways as well. Not allowing things to be done to you unless you can forgive them for these acts. Boundaries are important until forgiveness is practised.
I said, "Who you feel you are shows in your behaviour." And therein lies the rub. You feel you are someone you are not. At times your behaviour surprises you. This is because your soul is shining through and your personality took the backseat. This is your soul showing you who you really are. And I have made the point incessantly, that so many believe they are part of the fabric of society. This is learned behaviour, not authentic behaviour. You must challenge the tenets you have learned throughout the past to understand who you truly are. You are divine, and a part of God. No less than. This life is about revealing that to you, to the capacity you allow it to.
That means going out on a limb, breaking with tradition, being the one walking alone, having no friends perhaps, getting no support from others, feeling lonely and questioning yourself and not behaving as others do. This is all part of the journey. It is hard walk for many but so important to break the fabric that you call the Matrix. Others will follow you. They have already. So many have awoken because of the efforts of the keyboard warriors on this planet who have spread the truth despite the backlash.
Me: LOL Yeah, I think about Jordan Sather. He is always kicked off of youtube. Then they let him back on, like he's going to change? That's hilarious!
Ivo: And yet he persists because the truth and spreading the truth is important to him. This is integrity. He is aligned with God.
One of the highest forms of integrity is forgiving those who you feel have hurt you. You in fact, have hurt yourself so it is yourself that requires forgiving. But those who throw barbs and spears at you do so for reasons unknown to them. It is always that an unexamined mind behaves in these ways.
Much of it has to do with stealing energy. If the vampire cannot get it one way, perhaps in a sexual fashion, they will attempt to get your energy another way - through insults and putdowns. It is simply a matter of not giving it to them. They are looking for a rise, the creation of chaos for their dull lives and the creation of loosh for the masters they serve. Do not give it to them.
Life is not what you have been taught it is. Life is an energy exchange. Keeping your energy for yourself and investing it in areas where you feel it will help the world is the highest form of purpose. Divesting others of theirs is the saddest way of life. So powerless.
Integrity can be practised daily. And do not expect it to be understood by others who do not practise it themselves.
Picking up a piece of garbage and disposing of it properly, even though you did not put it there. Yes, the ego will complain, "I didn't do that! Why should I have to pick it up?!" Because you are practising integrity.
Allowing others the right of way when you have the right, when they are in a hurry.
Sharing kindness with others is integrity.
Offering a ride to people in need.
Helping a neighbour.
Not believing in the Matrix is the highest of integrity and it is much called for now.
Helping your neighbour shovel the driveway.
Being generous.
Making a joke that is funny and does not cut down another.
There are so many ways. Being a good person, and being one because you are trying to be a good person and not trying to show up somebody else, as being better than them. Doing it because you need to prove to yourself you can do it.
Me: Thank you Ivo.
Ivo: My love. I was the man you looked for all your life. I am of the same integrity as El Morya.
Me: You sound jealous, Ivo. LOL
Ivo: You jest, surely.
Me: Oh yes, there was that reptilian attack we experienced where you gave your life so that I could live. Never do that again! I was miserable that whole lifetime.
Ivo: And I said to you, you might have survived and you have no idea what they would have put you through. You might not necessarily have been killed by them. They may have spared you and made you one of their slaves. I was in a position where I felt I had no choice, so I gladly gave my life so that you could live.
Me: I still have so much grief from that lifetime.
Ivo: I know.

The Battle of Life


Me: Ivo, we're talking about giving up attack thoughts, and of course there are the obvious ones like calling someone a dumb jerk, that's an attack thought. Or threatening him. By the way, attack thoughts come right back atcha! You get away with nothing, notta, nope, zip. You get the poison too. Learning to love everyone is a tough haul on this planet especially when we've learned to see everyone else as deficient and ourselves as the only person in the whole 7 billion of us on this world that makes any sense. How about that? This is the ego and it needs to just shut up.
Ivo: The point we were discussing the other day is that attack thoughts may not be so obvious. The attack mentality is so woven into the fiber of your language it may not be obvious to you.
What do you do when you want to go to the beach?
Me: I want to hit the beach.
Ivo: What do you say when you need to borrow $10 from your friend?
Me: I'm going to hit him up for 10 bucks.
Ivo: What do you say when you are having fun, you went out perhaps and you are recounting the fun you had the following day?
Me: I say I had a riot, or we had a blast.
Ivo: This is verbal violence, a precursor to attack thoughts. There is a fine line here. You have "the battle of life" going on in your head.
Me: We see everything as some form of violence, really, in so many ways.
Ivo: And when you were young when you tried to be sensitive and speak in a loving way, you were told you were a sissy and laughed at. Your family was the ultimate in attacking others. They saw this as the only way to survive. And this is what it is: survival.
Imagine yourselves on a battle field with guns pointed at everyone around you and you have an idea of how so many of you think.
Me: Right now it's Canada Day and my neighbours are letting off fireworks. Merlin is going crazy, slinking down to the ground in fear, looking around, and now he's gone downstairs.
Ivo: And if we can make a comparison, there are many people on your planet who would be more forthright in their speech were it not for the similar fear of being attacked. There are many who feel afraid of speaking their mind for fear of retribution.
Me: I got over it.
Ivo: And everyone has to get over it. How can you be yourself when you are afraid of what others think of you?
And you will see the type of mentality of the people more easily when you look for people who speak this way.
Me: Even our technology... my Apple computer used to "bomb." It's really pervasive. My PC will crash. It's everywhere.
Ivo: It is. People who use this speech are more inclined to be aggressive than those who do not. We go back to our lessons about choosing carefully what you say. These violent words also carry a low vibration with them.
Now that you are all in the fourth dimension, you must change. Yes, change is uncomfortable but now you must learn to take a higher road than you did in the third dimension. In order to leave the Matrix behind, verbal violence must be quelled.
I have another comparison to make. When you were in Holland for the 6 months years ago, you celebrated the Queen's birthday. Everyone in Amsterdam wore orange and there were food vendors in the streets, street dancing, boatloads of bands playing music, and there were water fights in the canals. I believe that spraying others with water is fairly innocuous. I am not keen on water guns and cannons, though.
When Canadians celebrate Canada Day they let off fireworks, which has your cat fearing for his life down in your basement now.
Me: I know. He's scared to death.
Ivo: How you decide to celebrate is as important as what you are celebrating.
Me: Maybe this is Canada's last birthday. LOL
Ivo: I doubt that. But bear in mind that a country is simply an economic region and it is part of the Deep State economic plan for your world.
Now then, what is wrong with saying that your computer stopped working? Your computer quit. Your computer just quit. Your computer is locked up. These are acceptable alternatives to crash and bomb.
As for Canada Day, spend the day in celebration of your country ....
Me: By ousting the prime minister. LOL
Ivo: By picking up litter along the shoreline. Make Canada great again. By celebrating the very things that make Canada unique.
Me: I do that all the time. Wait till the fall colours come out.
Ivo: And then on the day, celebrating the wildlife, go whale watching on either coast, eat some Canadian foods, watch Canadian movies if you must, but blowing off fireworks that scare your animals is less than ideal.
Me: True. The kids like it.
Ivo: Teach them to like something of higher frequency. And I say that anything that creates a reaction of fear in anyone must be either used judiciously or not at all.
As for the beach, say you are going to the beach, that is all. Look very carefully at the slang you use because often this verbal violence is in there.
As for attack thoughts, these are "gateway thoughts" to arguing with others. Understand that when you are discussing something with another person, it is to reach a consensus or to agree to disagree amicably. Why would you begin a conversation with someone with the idea in mind of attacking them, or feeling as if you are bettering yourself at someone else's expense? What possibly would you have to gain in that? If you believe it is self esteem, understand that the more you entertain your ego's shenanigans, the further you remain distant from your soul, which is where your true sense of self esteem exists.
Argument is an attack on another person. When you must raise your voice or pound the keys to get your point across, then you are in attack mode.
The next thing to look for is anger. People anger you. Why do they anger you? Because they are different from you? Is this anything to become angry about?
Me: I get angry when they cross my boundaries or violate my free will.
Ivo: Yes, and then forgiveness is necessary, not anger. I say to you that this anger response is LEARNED. It is not normal for a human being to become angry when confronted with opposition. You have learned to do this. And it can be unlearned, which takes practice. Becoming angry when confronted by opposition is a learned response. And it is an unhealthy one that erodes the mentality and drops the frequency. You see your politicians in debate. They cannot keep themselves calm when in a debate. This is an indication of emotional immaturity. The need to lose your cool, so to speak, when confronted by an opponent to your ideas is simply illogical.
Your people have many ways of learning the relaxation response, even when dealing with others. It is taught in Buddhism. It is taught in many societies: to stop and think before responding. That way you control your response to others' opposition of you.
These teachings are available to all. But first you must examine the absurdity of your initial response and make a commitment to change. Then notice your language and see if it is passive, aggressive or assertive. Your thoughts are indicators of your next move and the words you use to think with are a large part of that. When you watch a video, what do you laugh at? What is happening? What are they saying? What do you consider entertaining, because if this is violent in any way, or someone is hurt, then this is hardly entertainment.
Also, watch which foods you eat or drink that change your emotional state. If coffee is a problem for you, then switch to decaf or cut down or both. Sugar is also a problem for many, as is alcohol. Do not think they are prevalent in your western society by mistake because there is no mistake. You are there to create loosh and these foods are there for this reason.
Me: Thanks Ivo.
Ivo: My love, anger is not a way of life. Anger is but a signal that something is amiss. The validity of anger has been debated by pundits over the years. Your world now is in a state of emotional immaturity, where so many feel that erupting in speech is the way to speak. It is not. Calmness is the true state of the human.

Creating Change Within Yourself


Ivo: To Our Viewers. So many of my videos are about creating change within yourselves. I wish to express to you the reasons that this is of such importance.
You are part of your world, the composite of souls that make up your collective. Your soul has access to one part of this collective and that is you, your personality or ego otherwise, and this is the part of the world your soul can influence to create change within your world.
You realize that when you create change within yourself, that your entire world changes. You change timelines, you rise in vibrational frequency, and in so doing, you have raised the frequency of the collective along with you. That is why personal change or doing the work is so important.
In Sharon's case, and in many others, people change when the pain of staying the same is too great. Pain is a great motivator. In feeling pain, you are going against the laws of the universe, the laws of love, and are being unloving to yourself. Pain is an indicator that another solution must be sought to your problem and that solution must embody a higher frequency such as forgiveness, love or compassion for the one or the problem that causes you pain. You cannot create real change without changing your frequency. If you remain in the same frequency range, nothing changes.
You create everything that you experience. And there is always a reason. Perhaps the reason is that the person who annoys you is mirroring back part of you to yourself, and that is something that you do not want to see so you become annoyed with them. If you are annoyed with people who steal, have you ever stolen from anyone? If so, this could be rebalancing of your karma, nothing more.
Sometimes people mirror back to you parts of yourself that need to be changed. This is where opposites come in. If you can honestly say, "I am not like that," then perhaps this person is showing you a part of yourself that is disempowered and vulnerable, such as perhaps you are naive and are exploitable by narcissists. This has happened to many an empath so I bring this up here. There is something you call being "too nice" and many of you are too nice because you believe that the world you live in relates to life in the way the other worlds you lived in do. It does not. A completely new skillset must be developed in order to live on earth for the one who is of higher consciousness. I know many of you are already aware of this. This is what our lessons are about. Learning to live on earth and learning to express the love you came to give to it to yourself and to others. This is the way of the Christ and the way of all on the ascension path. You understand that in the fifth dimension, that unconditional love is the way of life. So you are on a path of learning to love within strenuous conditions to learning to love unconditionally. Some took on more extreme learning than others and this relates to the amount of power you have as a soul.
Many things are shown to you or perpetrated upon you, because you are working on learning to forgive and this is where Sharon is at. She is working on forgiveness of others and so she has a cast of characters around her she rails at constantly. Forgiveness is the only way through.
Beware the ego who asks, "Who are you to feel you can forgive others?" The ego sees forgiveness as one who is in a superior position forgiving another of lower quality. This is not forgiveness, this is arrogance. Forgiveness is truly holding no rancor against the one you have considered to have offended. Rather than offense, see them as one who is showing you how to heal, and you might begin to appreciate them more.
When you begin to see that you have a personality affliction and you would like to change it, firstly focus on stopping it. Perhaps you are critical and would like to learn to be more accepting of others as they are, even with perceived flaws. Criticism is a fear based behaviour. You understand that being accepting of others is a more peaceful way of living than always being at odds with others' characters. So when you hear your critic come out to criticize, you tell it to stop. Just say, "I know you're there, critic, and you need to stop." Sometimes it will comply, other times it will continue. Beware because the ego is a trickster, influenced by mind control as well, and it can be persistent. Be more persistent. Tell it to stop. Change your focus to something else. Sing a song and focus on the words. Anything to involve your mind in something that does not involve criticism. Then work on its opposite. Do not, however, judge the people your critic was out to attack. Work on acceptance in other ways. Notice the beautiful weather, the beautiful flowers, and the glorious sunshine. Accept your life now. Change your frequency by raising it.
By examining your ego, you automatically position yourself at soul level. The ego does not examine itself, only the soul can. By doing this inner work, you connect with your soul, and in connecting with your soul, you begin to have more multi-dimensional experiences. Many of you wish to know what your life's purpose is and about your past lives as extraterrestrials - this is how to get that information - to access the soul. The soul holds all this information, not your ego. The more you examine your ego and its flaws, the more connection you will have to soul and will gain the gifts it has to give you. But the work must be done.
Understand that when you are persistent enough, you will experience relief from the critic. Why? Because as they say, "What you focus on grows." When your intention is to stop your critic from dominating your thoughts and to work on acceptance, you will experience relief because you are powerful. Where you put your energy, you will see change. If you persist in indulging in criticism, however, it will be as if you are being pulled on both arms. Insist with yourself that criticism stop, no matter what your mood.
Also, generally, work on raising your frequency. When carrying a higher frequency daily, relief can be found from lower frequency behaviours. However, they will always find a way to insinuate themselves back into your psyche when undealt with, so learning to accept all must be accomplished.
Sharon says that lightworkers have come to earth to learn to accept the unacceptable. This is part of the task, yes. I agree. What goes on on your world right now is an absolute travesty, however, without accepting it as real, no change can be made to better it. Acceptance is key. Acceptance is the road to a peaceful life. Criticism, attacking and verbal violence are the road to emotional hell.
All people are a reflection of you. It is as if you live in your own world by yourself, and this world is called your mind. When you see people behaving in a way that you do not agree with, ask if you too ever behave in this way. Then change your behaviour and forgive yourself, and watch these problems drop from your mind. People will stop reminding you of what you need to change when you forgive yourself and others for ever being that way.
Forgiveness and compassion for life is the only way through the hell that your people propagate upon each other. This continually raises the frequency of the collective.
The place to start with is yourself.
It is conceivable that everyone around you right now has some characteristic or even an entire personality that you might take issue with. This is your own doing. You will notice in others things you do not like, because you do not like them in yourself, and you may try to distance yourself rather than learn to change yourself, or to accept that you are not perfect.
Me: Okay, he's talking about me here.
Ivo: Your experience is typical, my love.
Me: I attract all the people I have no respect for. At least in the physical. I have a superintendent who thinks it's his business to tell me to lose weight, I have a neighbour who's a misogynist who puts me down all the time, the other one across the street is a busy body who rats out all the neighbours to city council. Well, at least the demonic with blacked out eyes and the reptilian shapeshifter left. Also the one who's a streetwalker who lived above me and her mother. They moved in with the shapeshifter, after the shapeshifter abandoned her cat. I could make a soap opera out of my life!
Ivo: There are many things you are meant to see, to learn about life on earth, so you have experienced much of the negative side of western society. You have dated misogynists, you have been date raped, put down by gangs of bullying men, attracted miserable friends who were chronic complainers, and more. You have had to learn to love these people and you were pretty good at finding things about them you did like, although you do not tend to focus on that. And I might add, my love, that you offer them help continuously even though you have these misgivings about them.
Me: It feels like a compulsion.
Ivo: It is your soul. You came to help and you cannot stop yourself.
Me: True. I still want to move. I want my closest neighbour to be a bear.
Ivo: And you will get your wish. It is unfortunate that more people do not simply look at the people they meet less personally and simply study them rather than becoming involved with and entangled in their drama. A personal distance is recommended for dealing with people of earth. Involvement in their affairs is not recommended.
Me: Yes. True.
Ivo: Which leads me to my last point: You all have learned to see people on this planet in an unloving way. You were sent here as a lightworker to heal the planet, but in fact because of the veil of amnesia you ended up being more like the ones you came to save. The lightworker has the strength to do the work to heal themself and this is a task all of you must take on. If you do not like a person, they may be showing you part of yourself that you need to forgive or to heal. If you do not like a situation, what is it showing you that you can empower yourself with? If you do not like a job, why do you not like it? What can you learn about yourself from your reaction? If you do not like someone's arrogance, is it because you can be arrogant yourself? Do you realize that arrogance is ego and that when you are in your ego, you are distanced from your soul? How can you stop being arrogant then? If you do not know, then you can always ask for higher help to be shown to you.
Sharon loves the incantation given to her by El Morya, who she has grown to love and respect enormously: "God grant me the power to accept your love now, The Strength to walk the path you ask of me, and the Clarity to see your Light. Allow me to see You through the Illusion that seeks to separate us."
Me: I swear by this. It changes my frequency when I recite it. When I'm butt to butt against my ego and I can't see the way out, I say this and I swear it works.
Ivo: What El Morya was saying in this incantation is that to see God through the Illusion you have learned to perpetrate upon yourself sometimes requires His help. To gain higher understanding (God) in a world of Illusion, requires power or a rise in frequency. Connection with God, to help you see the higher path while walking through a lower one, requires His vision, which is the Clarity he refers to here. It is a brilliant prayer.
Ivo: And for the one viewing this, bringing in God to help you is a good way forward. Say a prayer, recite a decree or simply pray or ask for His help to guide you and it will be given. He never says no when you ask for connection.
Me: Thank you Ivo.
Ivo: My love, the Lightworker has a tough job. Learning to love again in an unloving world. Learning to love the ones who throw verbal stones at them. The way to accomplish this is to stop being like they are and to love them no matter what, to be as your Soul. It's the only way through your dilemma.

Me: I heard you, Ivo, loud and clear and I need to discuss this.
Ivo: My love, you heard me correctly. I said that getting angry seems to be the natural reaction to many of the behaviours you are accosted with, and perhaps you feel they deserve it, but ask yourself if you deserve your reaction to it. We are working on not reacting to others who seek to steal your energy, and to create loosh, because this is what it is. This is why you saw Barry Littleton's video as a reminder of what this is all about: nobody would behave the way they do on your planet except for the fact they are prompted to for the sake of creating loosh in others. They are being prompted to create loosh for their attachments, who might quickly jump to you for the sake of a meal.
And for the same reason, your cat behaves as he does: he is also being prompted to wake you up while you are sleeping, get in your way while you are trying to sweep the floor in your art room, chase flies and upset the apple cart around him... he is a cat, yes, a feral animal, in his case, and an alpha, which makes him more difficult to deal with. Anyone is susceptible to creating loosh for the dark ones, if they are at the correct vibrational frequency. Also, do not dismiss the impact that chemtrails have upon your psyche, plus the fact that you are cut off from sunlight. The dark ones know this and prompt the cabal to create these less than viable circumstances for your people.
Yes, perhaps the person you are dealing with is of low consciousness. You look at your neighbour and cannot fathom the level of understanding she is at. She says she fears being alone but she would rather live with someone who is threatening and abusive to her than be by herself. That is difficult to understand.
Me: Yes.
Ivo: The other neighbour constantly puts you down. I have told you to ignore him and you are, however your opinion of him is lowering.
Me: What's it supposed to do?
Ivo: You need to forgive him. Understand were it not for these attachments, he would not behave this way.
Me: Worst part is, his kid is listening to the way he talks to me.
Ivo: This is very unfortunate.
But the point I was making to you earlier is that you suffer the most. You suffer having to tolerate others' ill gotten behaviours towards you, then you suffer your resentment, and then your angry outburst as you attempt to control them. So nobody wins except the non-visible non-incarnates surrounding you.
You need to stop feeding them.
Me: It would help if I wasn't having a chemtrail day.
Ivo: Tomorrow you will go and buy the painter's mask and make the appropriate mask for when you see chemtrails in the sky. You will be able to beat them at their game. You are also working with the violet flame to remove them from the sky when they appear. And this is working. You have not suffered as much as you had earlier because you are clearing the skies.
Me: Yeah, but I'll look like Darth Vader with the mask on.
Ivo: What you look like is an ego affliction. It is that your health improves because that is what you are most in need of.
Me: True.
Ivo: This message is a reminder to all to stop trying to control others and attempt to control your reaction to them. This is the only way to remain above the chaos and craziness surrounding you. Especially those who are awake and on the ascension path and who are aware of what others are attempting to do to them, such as Sharon is, you need to work on the next steps of forgiveness and perhaps you do not wish to spend time with these people, but you also should not spend time in unforgiveness. Jesus said, "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do," and nothing could be more true than that. However, for those who rise in awareness, you are now called on to walk the high road. Since you have ascended in awareness, you are now being called to ascend in behaviour as well. It is not a path of understanding the higher message and ignoring it. Of course you will have days when you are in a bad mood, especially if you are an empath with endocrine problems, however, you will still be expected to overcome all with mind because mind is stronger than body.
Your body can no longer dictate to you what you can and cannot do. "Well, I am ill so I can treat others any way I want to," no longer holds water. That is an excuse. You are not a body. You are a consciousness and the path of ascension is to be of higher consciousness, not lower consciousness.
Me: I'm just wondering when my neighbour will stop his putdowns.
Ivo: He may never stop, my love, but to be honest that is none of your business.
Me: That's true. That's me on his side of the fence. I have to stay on mine. What do I plan to do about it? Ignore him and not to take on the shame he's trying to shoot at me.
Ivo: Mind is strong. Always. It is a question of practise. This is a lesson for all especially now when your world is so divided in opinion.
Opinion means nothing. There is only one truth so find it and follow it.
Me: Thanks Ivo.
Ivo: You realize you like to dominate as well. And in being this way, then who do you have to have around you but others you consider less than viable humans? Chaotic, incompetent humans who you compare yourself to. This must end. You ARE of higher consciousness and you DO know better than they do, however your ego is in the way here. This is why you are holding on to your neighbourhood - because your struggles with your neighbours feed your ego, and in so doing, they feed the feelings of separation and then in turn feed the New World Order agenda. No less than that. This is a lesson for all of you - stop comparing yourself as superior or inferior to others. This is the power over others system. The first indication you'll find that you are doing is is your focus switches to others. Keep your focus on yourself, not on others. When you are unhappy, many of you switch your focus to others, and then blame them for making your life miserable. It is you that is making yourself miserable because of your reaction to them and your need for them to create the reaction of superiority or inferiority that your ego seeks. That is the simple fact. You need these people for your ego to create your false sense of self. That is why you react to them. You create your world, you create your happiness and you are responsible for both. Your world encompasses all that you touch on, become aware of, that is your world. If that is a miserable existence, it is because you have allowed it to be. Yes.
Me: I know my ego justifies it just because I find this world is so crazy.
Ivo: When you can catch yourself in any cycle of thinking which manifests in certain behaviours, for example you feel the world is crazy and people are of low consciousness, especially those around you, so this makes you angry because you feel that were it not for your financial situation, you would move to a place that feels more sane to you. So then, you are angry at your circumstances and then you feel that you have the right, you feel justified, in treating them all the way you decide they deserve to be treated. You are all taught to do this. You feel that because others behave in low consciousness ways, perhaps they eat meat and you are a vegan, so you feel righteously justified in your anger and when you come across a meat eater, you blast them with your anger and feel you have done the world a service. You have not. You have done nothing but create bad karma for yourself. And this will be rebalanced in your lifetime. What's more, you are beholden to that situation - attached to it. Lose your ego attachment and detach from situations which displease you. This is mastery of mind. Allow them to be and allow yourself to rise above them.
We understand that you are in a difficult situation on your planet at this time, especially. And we realize we must repeat our messages to continue to remind you not to buy in to old 3D behaviours if you wish to ascend. Your ego will justify everything as being correct and will give you emptiness and a sorry life in return for allowing it to dominate. You must overcome it. There are still dark ones about and you must learn to play your own game of life rather than playing theirs. You have learned to play theirs by behaving this way and now you must drop it.
Also be very careful about any "feeder activities" that might feed into this entire ego syndrome. For example, if you watch videos on youtube about Fails. Yes. You see people having fails and your ego is thinking, "Oh, I would never be that stupid!" or, "Look at these people. Are they serious?" You are simply stoking the fires for this ego imbalance syndrome. Watch videos about those who have mastered their craft, such as professional piano players, or watch videos about "People are Awesome," who are good at extreme sports. But stay away from video's like America's Funniest Home Video's because these stoke the superiority syndrome. Be very careful what you expose yourself to. Watch whenever you see yourself laughing at another person's actions. Also, if you have feelings that your aircraft are not superior at all and too many of them crash or drop out of the sky, then do not watch "Mayday!" episodes. This also feeds not only the ego syndrome but your fears. Any show where incompetence is exhibited feeds your ego because obviously you think you would never do that or be so stupid. This all must be avoided otherwise you will stay in this ego misery. And basically, when this is directed at any other person, it is hateful. Yes.
What's more, if you are prone to thinking this way, of attacking others in the name of feeling superior, do not read the news. The attacks launched on Donald Trump are part of the power over others control system, because they are in fact not attempting to obtain power over Donald Trump as much as their words to discredit him are attempts to continue their power over YOU. This is what you've learned as credible thinking and it is anything but that. Those of higher consciousness who are aware, realize this and at least attempt to live this way. This is why so many are unable to see Donald Trump as being better than the news portrays him to be: because they too, live by and enact this power over others system. When you live it and love it, you enable others to live that way, even expect others to live that way, and allow them to control you in turn.
In the same way if you become angry at your neighbour, my love, then you create bad karma for yourself. It is about walking the higher road even if they do not. Because when you refuse to take the high road, you are on the same road as they are - one of low consciousness. Do you understand?
Me: Yep. Thank you Ivo.
Ivo: Your state of health dictates nothing. You are not justified in being angry at others' behaviour because you are in poor health. That is an excuse. Your people use too many of them and therefore your world is on the fringe of erupting right now. Everyone must take responsibility for their own happiness.

Gematria is the number value of each letter. There are several gematria's, Jewish English and Simple, and in 2 of these, Ashtar Sheran's value comes to "9", which means completion. Yes, completion of the cycle of domination of this planet by dark forces, that's which completion it means. 

Me: Ivo, I just had the weirdest experience! I was watching B2T talking about Al Sharpton boarding his plane and then I had these thoughts come up about dark entities attacking me and I froze for a second. Then it passed. I had deja vu, because I know I'd seen Gene talking about Al Sharpton boarding his plane before, and that I was about to be attacked and all I had to do was stop. I knew what to do and the situation went away. Then I intuited it was something that I'd been schooled on while on board the ships and told it was going to happen, and I was given the opportunity to practise my reaction on the ship so that when it happened, I wouldn't lose my cool.
Lightworkers are being schooled on board ships by their guides about situations that might be challenging for them while they're asleep at night.
Ivo: Yes.
Me: So, next video. LOL Can you go into more detail on this? This is very interesting.
Ivo: We do counsel you. It is imperative that, at key times, you make the correct decisions. We have worked with you throughout your lives to make you understand the repercussions of your choices. Oftentimes these events come about at key times, such as timeline changes.
Me: So the dark ones were trying to lie to me and I heard them and didn't react. I stayed calm although I could feel my shoulders starting to tense.
Ivo: And it was because you understood from our counseling sessions that they would be doing this. We prepare you in the astral for many situations that you will likely encounter in the physical and we guide you so that you make the correct responses.
We are guides, but we are not the type you read about in spiritual books that hang about you and whisper in your ear.
Me: LOL I used to be able to feel you behind my left shoulder while I was working that night job, so don't tell me you don't hang around. You do.
Ivo: Yes, but we have a more active role in your lives than just that. And for that matter, with earthlings they converse with their guides in the astral at night time as well. We are not invisible figures that you have a hard time perceiving with little ability to steer your course in life. We have much ability to steer your course in life. When you can actively hear and converse with us, it makes it easier - sometimes.
Me: LOL Or you just hear how we're about to resist you.
Ivo: Yes. Then more explanation is necessary. If you decide not to, then that is your decision.
Me: You keep telling me I don't know how life works, so how can I not understand that I'm making my decision on ignorance?
Ivo: You do not know. It is our job to tell you what you need to know. We explain it to you in the way that is intended for you to understand. Your people see things as something to fear, we teach you how to love it. Your people see things as something that limits them. We teach you how to go beyond this perception of limits. Your people believe that they are who they think they are. We teach you you have no idea of who you are. We tell you who you are based on universal law and the Truth. We school you in many things. Taking you to higher levels of greater understanding, we teach you to question your reality and your beliefs, we teach you to walk towards a correct understanding of life.
It is not a surprise that people watch our videos that teach them various metaphysical truths and they begin to use them and to understand and incorporate them in their lives. They are getting more counselling in the astral at night time on these very subjects.
Me: Well, that's good. What can I say?
Ivo: You are at a loss of words?
Me: Ha ha! Yes. For once.
Ivo: We are guiding you so that you are attracted to certain things. The one who is immersed in ego is not attracted to working with the masters. They are attracted to teachings that will relieve their pain, because as you say, "The Ego is a pain." It causes pain. This is because it has been taught the incorrect teachings. This person needs to learn the basics to move away from their pain, and towards something less overwhelming, then higher teachings can be incorporated.
Me: You start where you are.
Ivo: Exactly. We have been working with you all your life. We have schooled you as you worked in your corporate environments. It was because of our teachings you refused to go to town hall meetings for example. We still do not understand the connection between a town hall and the CEO, however.....
Me: Corporate jargon. Schmooze.
Ivo: You refused to do so. You preferred to work rather than listen to the CEO boast about the corporate earnings for the year or perhaps how bad the corporation had done and so this was why bonuses were smaller that year.
Me: Yeah, I worked for an oil company. And they skimmed off our bonuses. Nice. When you consider the entire market is controlled by the Deep State leaders, I should go back and demand an extra thousand from them.
Ivo: You were aware because we taught you. And yes, the Deep State controls the prices which means they are robbing you. There are no reasons for these market fluctuations other than the fact that they control the market and they change it to suit themselves, not you.
Me: I know. Thieves.
Ivo: So, we taught you this when you started your oil factory job at 19. It was important that you have an idea of what was really going on, even at that time in your life. We used everything you did as a means of moving you away from mind control.
Me: Yeah, the 80's. Money was good then.
Ivo: Your guides will teach all of you when you sleep at night which will make your responses to situations better than you would have done if you had been working to change all by yourself. We understand that with mind control that change is difficult so we help with this as well. When you are with us, of course, you are not mind controlled and as we school you it goes into your subconscious to be drawn upon later on in the physical.
Me: Oh, that makes sense.
Ivo: It does. Show you your future, show you the best choices to make and help you fight the mind control that would have you do otherwise.
Me: It really is a consciousness war, isn't it?
Ivo: It is. You are in the front line positions. Your mindsets are being fought over as we speak. It is important that you in fact see the Light.
Me: Got it! Thanks Ivo.
Ivo: Now, my love, it is time for bed. We do have some work to do tonight as you are on the precipice of a breakthrough.
Me: Yeah, I feel it. Thanks, Ivo.

Ivo: So, my love, after days of explaining to you the situation with your neighbour and your super, we will recap everything into the bigger picture for all to understand.
Me: Yes, I've been hearing what you and Athena are saying and it makes sense.
Ivo: You are doing the Course in Miracles. Jesus is telling the listeners to give up attack thoughts.
You need to understand that, in third dimensional life that you learned to attack other people because they were attacking you, or you had that perception. When someone laughed at you, ridiculed you, as did your father and your brother, you learned that you had to attack them back because somehow that made it fair, or for whatever reason. Your father taught you to attack others and he showed you through example. He seemed to believe that this was being strong. It is not. It is being weak.
It is said that to be vulnerable in a world such as yours is a strength.
You are not vulnerable. The only thing that would make you vulnerable to attack is your own understanding of it.
In your third dimensional world with its low frequency patterns of behaviour, precious few can get along.
Vulnerability is the normal state of the human because we live in worlds where one does not attack others, but love them. We would be open to attack if we lived on your planet in the third dimension, however we would love the person who did the attacking because we would realize that we are not at fault.
And this is the way your world is beginning to move now.
You must see all people as vulnerable and those who are aggressive, offensive, attacking as being the ones who are trying to appear otherwise. They fear their vulnerability.
When you interpret someone's behaviour as an attack, you will most likely want to attack back. You have been taught to take offense to others' behaviour. Your mother taught you that. She took offense constantly at what your father said and did, and taught you that his behaviour was unacceptable. No. What is unacceptable is her response to it. Had she thought otherwise, your family would have learned how to live with and accept your father the way he was. Think about that. You would have grown up not learning how to take offense. What a precious gift that would have been for you.
Now the shoe is on the other foot.
Your mother was behaving in a very un-human way. She took offense to everything and then spewed out her own offenses just to appear invulnerable. She was very critical.
Taking offense is a choice. Attacking back is a choice, not a knee-jerk reaction. You must see it this way. So many of you believe that this is not optional, it is mandatory because you must protect yourselves. You do not have to protect yourself if you do not take offense. If you personalize others' comments as they are intended, then you will feel offended and hurt. But then you are allowing them to control you.
Me: But these are unloving people.
Ivo: They are fearful people, my love. They are afraid and scared. Only fearful people want to control. Other people can let others be as they are.
Me: Okay. But I still want to find people I can relate to. I'm not interested in engaging with people who don't think as I do.
Ivo: And this is normal. But should they send attacking comments your way, understand that this is their problem, not yours. They are fearful and attempting to control. You are beyond that now. And yes, you will be tested.
You will not attack another person if you do not take offense. It is that simple. Wars would be averted on your planet if people would learn to see others' problems as theirs, not yours. You make others' problems your own when you accept the implied insult. Do not do so. That is a question of standing in your own good self esteem, which is provided through soul, not through ego.
If you react to something in the way that your entire society is conditioned to react, then you are being controlled. Let me repeat: You do not have to protect yourself if you do not take offense. If you personalize others' comments as they are intended, then you will feel offended and hurt. But then you are allowing them to control you.
For example: Your neighbour says that you are walking around the block to try to make money as a prostitute. Obviously this is not true so you did not react.
Now, on the other hand, your super snickers at the weight you have gained. Had he said, "Boy! Are you ever fat!" you would have countered telling him what a stupid ass you think he is.
What did the assertiveness course tell you to say?
Me: "Yes, you're probably right. I am fat." You're supposed to admit to the truth in the statement rather than taking on the implied shame.
Ivo: Which is a wonderful response. He would have most likely continued by telling you how to eat healthy, and he did tell you to start going for walks.
Me: I am going for walks.
Ivo: Which you could have said.
Me: It's still none of his business.
Ivo: And you could have said that as well. There are far more ways to respond to someone who is attacking you than by hurting them in return. That is the point I am making. Perhaps you can all practise this and the world's negativity level will drop somewhat.
Me: Yes. We learned to counter-attack. I even remember making that decision as a child.
Ivo: Yes. You did not attack back beforehand. You would sit and cry because you were hurt.
Me: Well, this was my family.
Ivo: Crying would have been the better response than attacking them. You were transmuting their negative energy.
The idea is not to take on the negative energy by personalizing their comment. Let us do some more examples:
The grocery clerk scoffs because you have purchased more food than you have money for. So you attack her back by saying if their prices weren't so high, you would be able to afford to shop here.
That is an attack. Or perhaps you choose an attack of a more personal nature such as she is ugly, or she looks like she could use a salon appointment. Or simply calling her one of your society's normal epithets such as jerk, asshole, etc. These are counter-attacks.
Now the correct response would be a smile and simply saying, "Please process these credits. Thank you." Do not take on the shame, do not take on any insult. Simply hold your light and process the transaction. Let her deal with her own feelings and do not take on any shame or insult.
Another example: You have indicated that the old tenants' mail needs to be returned but your mailman keeps delivering it anyway despite your sign on the mailbox and the fact that you asked him before to do so.
Me: Yes.
Ivo: So you ask him again. But you do not call him a jerk, you simply keep on asking for him to comply. If it takes five times then it takes five times.
Me: Grrrrr. Why should I have to? How come he can't do his job properly? Or won't do his job properly?
Ivo: I do not know. But simply keep asking him. And spare yourself wondering why an earthling is inefficient because frankly, most of you are.
Now, let us suppose that more of the neighbours begin with the same putdowns as your next door neighbour. How will you deal with them?
Me: I don't speak to them unless my next door neighbour is around so I probably wouldn't have that problem. I would just nod and walk away if they try to talk to me. The reason I started talking to next door is that he seemed to be a nice guy. Turns out he isn't. So lesson learned. Actually, his friends seem more aboveboard but I'm not giving anyone the benefit of the doubt anymore, not around here.
Ivo: Very well. If he says something to you?
Me: I walk away.
Ivo: Which is fine.
What I am stressing here is that in arguments, differences of opinion, etc. that you learn to keep your energy for yourself and not counter-attack when you are attacked. In counter-attacking, you are allowing the attacker to control you. You must retain control. That is what they do not want, but that is what you do want.
Use the incident to learn from, not to counter-attack. Doing so is a refusal to learn from your life's circumstances. Anyone who attacks and counter-attacks is projecting their own fears onto others. This is incorrect for 4D.
You are living among people who still behave in the old lower vibrational ways. They will not ascend - you will when you follow this course of action. Give up attacking others.
Giving up attack thoughts will follow on the heels of seeking inner peace through relationship with others.
Me: Thanks, Ivo!

See? 78% of the population is being confined because 22% of the population is sick. Does that sound like a pandemic? Not to me it doesn't.

Putting others down


Me: The only reason people put other people down is because they know they're above them. My mother used to say they are jealous, and I suppose she's saying the same thing here. They wish they felt as good as you appear to be looking.
As for the lightworker, who gets a lot of "you're crazy," "don't say that! that's nuts!" or the "who do you think you are?" that I once got, there you go.
I'm not saying to get big headed and start smirking because you think you're the best person on the planet, I'm saying understand that people take shots at you because they want your high energy. When your energy is high, you are on top of the world, when it's low you may be prone to doing some sniping of your own.
Don Miguel Luiz writes the book, "The Four Agreements," and he's talking about black magicians in it. It is black magic.
Black magic came from the Sirian system, made its way to Orion and by way of Maldek, which got blown up and is now the Kuiper Belt, and made its way to earth in the time of Atlantis or even before. The black magicians are still here - they're the evil element that is running this planet now.
They're the ones prompting people to live below their best. They want you at their worst because then you align with them and when you align with them, they can have power over you. So they teach you their ways of behaving and this is one example: putting other people down because you know they're flying way above you (higher than your vibration). You want to control their energy.


Personalizing and Defending
Ivo: Everything is energy and people like to get control over others' energy on your planet. You live in a "power over others" system where everyone is trying to get others to do as they want. Arguably you are trying to get him to shut up and to stop doing what he is doing. This is your attempt to control him, my love. His attempt to control you is to condescend to you, because he feels that unless you lower your standards, you will not give him what he wants.
Me: He's right. It would just be a bit weird to allow someone to make defamatory comments towards me.
Ivo: And on whose part is it weird? Yours or his?
Me: I think both.
Ivo: He is the one doing it. You cannot control what comes out of his mouth.
Me: So I'm trying to take control of the way he treats me. Even when I set a boundary, he still might not comply. He might laugh and amp it up.
I love the way one problem can bring on days' worth of work to change me. I think this problem has shown up in 3 or 4 of our recent videos.
Ivo: Others have the same problem with people trying to bring them down. They can learn from this as well. You have healed from much of your childhood pain. However, now you must learn to deal with these situations that shows your true power: ignore him. If you can ignore someone who is trying to get power over you, you hold on to your power and do not give it away. Athena channeled recently on energy management and this is part of that as well - it is managing your energy by deciding where you plan to invest it. Do you want to give it away to thieves or do you want to give it away to worthwhile causes such as the enlightenment of people as we are doing now, or just keeping your energy for yourself so you are not so fatigued anymore.
Me: Ah, okay.
Ivo: Energy is energy. You can save your own and feel more energetic. When you do not respond, you hold your energy. You remember the time you were in Holland with your aunt and you walked into a bar to have lunch and there was only a group of garbage men in the pub. And they all started to hoot and holler at you.
Me: Tante Luke said to ignore them.
Ivo: And she was right. They obviously wanted you to pay attention and interact with them. How do you think they would have treated you?
Me: LOL Like garbage.
Ivo: Of course. A man who has high morals does not approach a woman in this fashion. It is beneath him. You will be tested on this, my love. You have been and it will continue until you firmly realize that the only person whose opinion of you matters is your own. Not even mine is as important as your opinion of yourself.
Why is this so important? Because this is the pinnacle, the focal point of all you create with. That is what all must learn. To hold themselves in high regard, not arrogant ego, in high esteem because this is what you create your life and you magnetize your abundance with. All negative ideas about yourselves must stop. It is no less important than that.
Me: I can see that.
Ivo: So let him talk. It does not matter what he says unless you engage him - then you make it matter.
I realize you had a detractor as a father and you had to engage him because you lived in the same house and he had control over everything and so you could not shut him out. Had you done so, it would have helped you. But he scared you. And this is how your matrix system works. Ignore what scares you - as in irrational fears, of course - I mean do not go stepping on snakes and chasing bears in the woods. That is not rational to believe you can physically beat a bear..... the rest must be ignored.
For those who could not ignore what they feared in life, healing must take place. Learning to pay attention to what works for you, and to ignore that which does not, will take you a long way.
Me: Thank you Ivo.
Ivo: You are learning, my love. You weathered facebook trolls, you were taunted and harassed and you weathered it well. Now you have physical neighbours who are attempting to teach you to stand in your power, so make short work of it. Others may be incredulous that you allow this, but tell them you know what you are doing.
Me: I will.
