Joseph: It doesn’t take long – it is like Michael stepping out through a ‘door’ and me stepping in. He resists me at times and I find that amusing because we have worked together for a long, long time – longer than just this lifetime. He has seen me around today; he has seen me in silver and it is the silver vibration that I bring through to you first of all.

...Silver because it cleanses; silver because it takes away the negative aspects of this physical life that you pick up as a matter of course each day; silver because it uplifts; silver because it is noble; silver because I want to begin by reminding you that each of you is a travelling soul; that each of you is on a journey of exploration, of experience, of evolution; to bring back to you the nobility that your world cancels out day after day; to say to you that you are loved – that you are Love; to remind you of where you are going; to remind you that all you see around you is illusion – all you see around you is smoke and mirrors and dreams; to remind you that there are other planes that await you, other places waiting to welcome you, other people waiting to teach you, to be taught by you, other vistas that will open up to you.

I look at this world and I ...‘despair’ is the wrong word... but certainly I am saddened. I am saddened by the way things are going; I am saddened by the way that brother treats sister/treats brother; I am saddened by the pain that is inflicted on this world and on you daily through your thoughts, through your angers that needn’t be there, through your politics, through people who wish to manipulate, through people who think that the world is an endless source of supply.

The ‘shop’ is about to shut, Ladies and Gentlemen! The ‘offers’ are about to be withdrawn, and we have to make a difference whilst we still can or that ‘closed sign’ will be up permanently.

I don’t suppose you are interested in me – I am certainly not interested in me. I am interested in doing rather than in being; I am interested in what we can do, why we need to do it, how things work. And so I would like to put myself to one side – as Michael has done – and I would like to invite your questions. Who would like to speak to me?

Shirley Hayhurst: I would like to ask a question, Joseph, and thank you very much – it is a real pleasure to be able to talk to you. It is quite a frivolous question in a way: when you came here and you were an Atlantean did you have the same sort of a body then that we have now or was it…?

Joseph [smiling]: I had a far better body than you have now!

Forgive my sense of humour. We were basically the same but we had a more etheric quality than you have now. Over the centuries the world has added to your cares as you have reincarnated and reincarnated and you are denser in form than you used to be. It was far easier for us to slip into different levels of consciousness; it was far easier for us to communicate with the spiritual side of life; it was far easier for us to communicate telepathically (as you would understand it). So, in the respect of our souls, we had very different capabilities than you have now, but the shame and the upset is that you still have those capabilities – they are masked, they are surrounded by the dense matter of the thoughts on your plane of existence that prevent you from being so much more than you could be.

So, yes, I was similar to you in form but the atoms within my physical body were more rarefied than yours – as were they for all of us, for our society. And society was far different than it is for you because we took decisions as a group. And you might say: ‘Well, we take decisions as a group – we have parliaments, we have governments.’ That is not what I mean. We would, on a psychic level, decide upon the way forward – the call would go out to each of us. We were aware of our role as part of the group soul whilst we were on Earth, and so we operated very much like the group soul does on the higher planes of existence. So, there would be the individual part of ourselves – the part that you would recognise as ‘you’ and the part that I would recognise as ‘me’ – but we would have an overall consciousness that permeated this individual consciousness. And along that consciousness would be transmitted thoughts, and hopes, and dreams, and desires, and questions and we could... (you call it ‘multi-tasking’ now) ...we could multi-task quite easily. We could exist on this level of consciousness and we could also exist on a higher level of consciousness and make decisions on both levels.

So, anatomically similar, yes, but spiritually, no – we had a greater advantage than you have today and, as I have said, the framework of our physicality was less heavy than yours, but this is because of the effects of the Field of consciousness upon you. It is not an individual fault; it is simply a circumstance that has been brought on by centuries of thinking and of reacting in a certain manner.

Does that answer your question?

Shirley: Yes, it does. Do you think that we will ever get back to that situation?

Joseph: I would not be here this evening if I did not think ...and know ...and wish ...and pray ...and get down on my knees to ask that you get back to that position. You must remember that you are already at that position within. It is simply masked, it is simply ‘trapped’, as it were, by the all-pervading Field around you and what we are trying to do, by raising your consciousness and your awareness, is break that outer shell so that the ‘butterfly’ emerges once again.

Shirley: Thank you.

Joseph: Who is next, please?

Cameron Collinge: I would like to ask a question, Joseph. There is much debate at the moment regarding orbs and whether they are actually spiritual existence or whether they are just light reflected off dust particles picked up by modern digital cameras. Do you have an opinion on this?

Joseph: Yes, I have a very strong opinion on that, and the answer is: you are creating technology with our help, with our inspiration – because all inspiration is filtered down from the higher levels, all your great creations, all your moments of saying, ‘Eureka!’ have been because you have connected with higher levels that are trying to steer your world – and you have technology at this point that is far more sensitive than it used to be. And were you to see the spirit life, were you to see the higher spheres than this one, you would be aware of brilliant colours. Were you to see the astral level that is very close to this one you would be aware of a million thought-forms, a million dreams given form by the thought-process of millions of human beings. From moment to moment, as you measure it, these things – these aspects of life – are all around you.

You have cameras now that can capture the beginnings – just the beginnings – of spiritual truth. We try to influence them but you must understand that you have thousands and thousands of people who are going out trying to capture orbs! What they should try to do is to pray before they take photographs, is to hold their cameras and infuse those cameras with Love and with peace, to talk to the cameras because the camera is a part of the matrix of Creation, the camera is sentient, the camera can be spoken to and can be conditioned.

If you want better orbs talk to your camera, love your camera and say: ‘I’m not looking for orbs. I’m looking for evidence that I can give to others that will convince others – not myself.’ You should not need evidence for yourself but pray for manifestations that will convince others, that will set them thinking, that will allow them to break out of their prison, that will allow them to think: ‘There’s something else! There’s something I don’t understand.’

We have recently begun to influence the lights that are picked up by the Band of Light [reference to the group that helps Michael] to include images. It is a long job because in order for us to do this we have to love the camera too, we have to love the people who are taking the photographs and we have to love the people on the other side so that their images can be reproduced by digital media. It is a long process and you will always find the Field saying, ‘It is this. It is that.’ If a thousand spirits now were to tap-dance in front of you, there would be those looking through the windows who tomorrow would say, ‘That did not happen – it was a trick of the light!’ It is so sad that human beings are so willing to believe in everything they see on this level and yet give so little time to the possibilities within themselves.

There will be further breakthroughs in technology that will leave people in no doubt regarding spirit communication (because orbs are part of that movement of communication) that they are capturing images, colours and scenes from somewhere else. Our worry is that people will treat this as a novelty and it takes a great deal of power, a great deal of energy to influence the cameras and the machines that you have at the moment.

There are advances in digital clarity with regard to moving images too and you will see, over the next few years, reports on your news programmes of orbs that are moving, of colours that are moving, of things photographed that were not there when the person photographed them. And this is part of our subtle infiltration of this level of existence so that we can shake those who are not at this time spiritually aware and just open that consciousness by a crack so that we can get some truth in there.

Was that satisfactory?

Cameron: Thank you very much.

Mr. Arkwright: Joseph, what do you have to say about the significance of crop circles?

Joseph: I have to say that there are many phenomena around your world that people do not understand. I am not involved in such things …neither am I involved in taking a piece of wood and a length of string and recreating crop circles for the amusement of the person with the piece of wood and the piece of string!

Are you being communicated with from other spheres of intelligence? Always! Always ...but I would advise you that some of these things are peripheral, some of these things are – not base, ‘base’ is the wrong word – are on the sidelines, are elemental, are not what you should be looking for.

In your dealings with the spiritual realms always look for the highest, always say to yourself: ‘Why should a spirit not be able to contact me directly? Why?’ and then ask, through God’s Love, that that happen to you. If we wish to talk to you – we have not the time to talk to you through symbols, not the time to talk to you in a covert way – if we wish to talk to you we will talk to you openly and that is what you should always seek.

Remember that when you seek something, a vibration goes out from you to pull into you and around you a vibration of similar quality. Therefore, if you are seeking only at an entry level, only at a peripheral level, then you will see in those things great messages. We don’t want you to look at us as ‘Gods’, as people who wish to lift you up through signs and miracles; we want you to look at us as human beings who have moved on and are quite capable of communicating with you if you know how to communicate with us.

...And you communicate with us by lifting that vibration of expectation, by saying: ‘I expect the best. I expect high spirit communication and I will not settle for anything less!’ And in doing so, yes, your crop circles are important and some of the other peripheral things are important – like the investigation into crystals and the need to see a medium on a regular basis – all these things are important but you can make them less important and raise your game, raise your expectations so that what comes to you is of a higher level ...is food for your soul.

Is that satisfactory?

Mr. Arkwright: Yes, thank you.

Mike Sly: I would like to ask a question about the condition of the planet and you made reference to that at the beginning. As individuals we may feel limited in our capacity to influence the continued damage that is being caused to the planet; what are your views on what mankind can or can’t do collectively at this stage?

Joseph: If mankind was to recognise its God-inheritance the planet would change instantly!

It is unfortunate that the Field puts perceived limitations on you, ‘I can do this perhaps. I can never do that!’ And that in itself is creation. ‘I can do this perhaps’ means that you create your ability to do this perhaps, ‘I can never do that’ means that you create an ability to never do that.

You are God.

Each of you in here is God ...and at the core there is no ‘each of you’ – there is simply God experiencing His universe from different viewpoints. God creates. It is God’s nature to create. It is your nature to create; you create daily. Unfortunately, because of the dominant thoughts in this matrix of thought – this Field that surrounds you – you create more of the same. You create more unrest; you create more disease; you create more poverty …because you expect these things. You are told that these things are true, therefore, that is the way it must be and you perpetuate the myth.

You perpetuate the bad dream.

In order to change this world you have to change your outlook.

You have to believe in and see the world you want. And you have to be very strong and very brave, and you have to look at your news programmes and say, ‘That is one point of view but it is not my point of view!’ When the person in the street says that you are not looking well today, you say, ‘That is one point of view but it is not my point of view!’ And you begin to use the Light that you inherit to change things.

The world needs a makeover; the world needs the Love that Michael was talking about initially [reference to Michael’s opening remarks prior to going into trance, not included here]. The world needs Love! And I look through Michael’s eyes and I see his disgust when he sees people dropping cigarettes on the tarmac or throwing litter on the floor because the world is a spirit, the world is alive and – more to the point – the world is God and the world is part of you.

The world needs protecting and loving. When was the last time we said: ‘Thank you, Earth, today for sustaining me, for sustaining my life, for giving me the oxygen I need to breath whilst I am alive on this level, for giving me beautiful vistas, for continuing to turn in space so that I can stand upright’? So few say these things, so few realise these things and it is your task – our task – to make the difference by thinking differently. We run around as human beings and say: ‘I must do something. I must do something!’ No, you must be something! You must be the person who thinks differently – before doing there is being.

You become the Light that changes the world through your meditations, through your thoughts and through what you say to others. And you change things where you can; you become brave enough to point out that there is another way; you become brave enough to say, ‘The Earth is alive!’ And many will laugh at you – it doesn’t matter, some of that ‘seed’ will go in and in certain people it will begin to grow …that is how you change the world.

The world is in a very depleted state because mankind is in a very depleted state. Why? Because that is how mankind thinks. Someone has to think differently and it may as well be you ...and you ...and you ...and you.

It starts now! It starts here!

If you want to change your world ...change it ...see it ...dream it ...be it ...become it ...create it!

Forgive my soap-box attitude but this is a very passionate subject to me. Does that answer your question?

Mike: Yes, thank you.

Joseph [pointing to the other side of the room]: Someone over here, please!

Adam Bernard: I’ve got a question – when we talk about ‘lifting vibrations’ what does that mean? Does it mean being more positive about situations and things like that?

Joseph: The vibrations you give out as a soul are of a certain resonance; they are like a wave-form and you will know (as every human being does) that during the course of a day you can go from happy ...to sad ...to despairing ...to ecstatic ...to tired ...to in pain ...to healthy – all these things are going up and down the wave-form on a daily basis.

The problem is when the wave-form dips and you identify in your thoughts with something that is less than beneficial to you then you draw more of it to yourself. In other words when you are despairing, when you are despondent, when you are upset there are vibrations out there that are of a similar resonance and you pull them towards yourself so you become more upset. Isn’t it so difficult when you are down to get up again?

When you lift your spirits, when you lift your mood, you operate on a totally different level. Your vibrations quicken and, because they quicken, they have access spiritually, psychically and intuitively to a whole new world – a world where people are happy, a world where you can tune into your intuition and can discover what to do next with ease, a world where you can bring joy to others because your vibrations have lifted. They are still your vibrations but they are operating at a quicker rate so you are at the top of the wave.

What we would ask of you is to try and keep those vibrations up for longer each day. If you feel despondent say: ‘Well, this accomplishes nothing and it doesn’t matter! What is the worst that could happen to me? I am letting go of this!’ And by letting go of it and aiming for a higher vibration you lift your vibration, you bring in the sunshine and the Light that you want to feel better.

It is a little like hypnotising yourself at the beginning. It is a little like saying: ‘No matter what is in front of my eyes – I am happy. No matter what is in front of my eyes – I know what to do next. No matter what is in front of my eyes – I know that my connection with God can never be broken so everything is alright. If I lose my physical life it doesn’t matter – I cannot lose my soul; I cannot lose my connection to God. If I lose my job it doesn’t matter – there is another one because God is taking care of me.’ And by changing your attitude you change the rate of your vibrations and you bring to you that which you desire, and you bring to mankind that which you desire for mankind.

Do you see?

Adam: Yes, thanks.

Joseph: Thank you. Who else, please?

Phil Kubilius: Joseph, can I ask you a question? There is a Gnostic society that some of my family have got involved with called the C.E.A. and it was founded by a man called Samuel Aun Weor who lived in Venezuela and the current leader is called Ernesto Baron. I wondered if any of those names resonate with you and if you could tell me anything?

Joseph: They mean nothing to me.

If you have read the book, you will know that religion is one of the problems of today’s society and that groups are one of the problems of today’s society. People tend to want to label themselves, ‘I belong to this. I belong to that.’ …and it is not always healthy because, in belonging to a group, you tend to want to operate within the parameters of that group and cut yourself off from possibilities outside the parameters of that group.

Labels at any level of life are dangerous. Labels cut off the ability to think outside of the box, to expand thought and to let concepts in that do not agree with the concepts you have by attaching yourself to a particular label. I would always in any group say: ‘As your measure of what that group is doing, does that group enhance mankind? Does that group enhance its members? Is that group loving? Is that group patient? Is that group peaceful? Does that group love those who are not in the group or does that group become fearful when there are those around who do not believe what the group believe?’

There is truth, and Light, and creativity, and the ability to access God within each of us and at the basis of many religions and organisations there is truth, and Light, and the ability to contact and work with God. But then we see in macrocosm what happens outside. We see that people become polluted by the very rules that perhaps once were meaningful and perhaps once were helpful …and the group becomes solidified as a consciousness and then it cannot move on and is useless to the cause of furthering the evolution of mankind.

My only concern with any group is – is that group capable of furthering the spiritual evolution of mankind?

And these are difficult questions, particularly for those who are attached to such groups. If you are worried by that association, you must put Light into the group. You must put Light into those members of the group that you are associated with. You must pray that the God within them talks to them – and sooner rather than later the God-within shall talk to them by bringing to them circumstances that will make them think, that will check them in their step and allow them to look at things with spiritual eyes. I do not wish to condemn religion – I wish to condemn that part of religion that imprisons people and that part of religion that stifles the soul.

Do you see?

Phil: Yes, good answer – thanks!

Joseph: Someone else, please!

[Long pause]

Someone else, please!

John O’Brien: Joseph, I would like you to speak about the ‘no-thing’ that you wrote about in your book [reference to Revelation], about the field of energy that has no substance but can be shaped into substance and bring about form, as part of God’s Creation and a gift to us to use.

Joseph [laughing]: Yes! Yes is the answer to that. Yes, yes, yes – that is exactly right!

Minute by minute, second by second, we are bringing things out of the no-thing now. Each of you is bringing things out of the no-thing and I, on my level, am bringing things out of the no-thing. But you see it as normal; you see it as a physical thing; you see it as circumstances that you are at the mercy of ...when in fact you, individually and creatively, are contributing to those circumstances and are creating those circumstances from the no-thing.

It is refreshing at times to go back to the no-thing and live within that potential, to say: ‘I will be back soon (and I am talking about my level and other levels). I need to go and contemplate my potential, other potentials, your potential, and to exist without form as energy (which itself is only a term for nothing – no-thing) and to contemplate and to be delighted in what could be, what might be, what will be – dependent on what I choose, what those around me choose, what the group souls choose and what God chooses through us as His will.’

The no-thing is a wonderful, peaceful experience and it would be of benefit to each of you in here to visit the no-thing in your imaginations ...to sit in God’s Love and in God’s Light and to slowly erase all of the things around you in your everyday lives until you are left just with you – not as a physical body – but you as a consciousness and you in the Light.

What a glorious thing to do!

What a restorative thing to do because – as you address the no-thing, as you rub out the physical concepts around you – you can rub out the illness; you can rub out the worry; you can rub out the animosity you feel for someone (and really know you shouldn’t); you can rub out yesterday; you can rub out the effects of yesterday on today just for a little while and you can exist in the no-thing, and commune with yourself and with your God.

I would recommend that exercise for a few moments, for a few minutes or for as long as you feel comfortable with it each day, and in doing that you reset the clock, you reset the stopwatch. And when you come out of the no-thing you are starting again with opportunities that you have brought to yourself by being in that contemplative state: ‘The illness belongs to before the no-thing; the pain belongs to before the no-thing – they are gone. There is only what I choose to bring though now and when I am tired and when I am weary I can go into the no-thing with my God and simply be.’

Just simply be!

You have so much to do – so much to do every day of your lives that you do not seem to have the time to be. When you simply be God speaks to you. If you say, ‘God speaks to me,’ on this level, you will be locked up …but God speaks to you constantly, communes with you and you are able to access that speech (either at a refined level through going into the no-thing or at a denser level through the things that happen around you) but God is constantly speaking. And the no-thing – that no-state – is the best way to commune with Him and also to ask that all important question ...not, ‘How do I get rid of the pain?’ ...not, ‘Where is the new job or the new car?’ ...not, ‘Where is someone to love?’ ...but that all important question, ‘What would You like me to do?’

Isn’t that a turn round in praying? ‘What would You like me to do? Is there anything I can do for You, Father? Is there anything I can say on Your behalf? Is there anyone You want me to visit? Is there anything I can do to help the people around me? What do You want me to do?’

And sometimes God will say something, and sometimes God will say nothing, and sometimes God will simply say, ‘I love you’ and you will come out of the no-thing refreshed and able to take up the mantel of the physical life once again.

Thank you. Another question, please!

Female member of the audience: Joseph, in the book you tell us about us manifesting stuff all the time but never un-manifesting, and so we just grow layer, after layer, after layer and get denser and denser. And, if I remember rightly, you recommend that we should spend time just letting go of things that we have manifested – is that what you were talking about just then or is it something else?

Joseph: It is an aspect of what we were talking about then. You begin to add layers to your physical existence from the moment you are born:

‘Ouch that slap was upsetting – I will remember that in case it happens again; I will carry around a record of it with me in case it happens again.’

‘Why does that person not like me in the playground? I will remember that and I will act accordingly in case I get hurt in the future by what I am carrying around with me from the past.’

As you add to your experiences – remember that you are in a negatively-charged Field that adds to the intensity of those experiences that makes them seem real to you years after they have actually happened because that is what the Field wants. The Field wants to remain as it is and anything that you can contribute to the negativity of the Field helps the Field and slows you down.

As you grow older your ability to exist on this level effectively is determined by the amount of baggage that you carry around with you within the physical Field. There is an exercise that you can do: you can sit and you can meditate and you can go back through the ‘files’ of your life. And you will know when you have hit a point of baggage because it will hurt you, because you will relive it, because you will say: ‘How could that person have done this to me? How could that person have acted in that way? How could I have been hurt? How could I have been so afraid? How can I have been in so much pain?’ And you will relive it.

At that point let it go.

Ask that someone come – a messenger from God come – and stand in front of you and to that messenger you can hand each of those painful points. But you have to really and truly want to let go, because another unfortunate effect of the Field is that we become used to the negative things in our life and they become a crutch: ‘I am in pain but I am used to that pain – I am frightened of what else there might be out there. I am in sorrow; I am in poverty but I am used to those things – they have become my perverted friends.’

You do not need friends like that! You need to let go of those circumstances.

You will find that, as you do so, when you come back to a physical level you will stand straighter, you will stand tall, you will find that certain of the physical ailments that assail you will disappear faster than they ever could through physical treatment or through pills and potions. You will find that you feel younger, more alive, more alert, more able to take notice of what is happening around you at this moment.

And what is happening around you at this moment is vitally important because it determines, within your linear existence, what happens to you in the next moment ...and the next moment ...and the next moment.

Letting go is very difficult for a great many people but it is so vital and people often bury their pains and say: ‘I couldn’t get rid of that because I couldn’t face it. I couldn’t face seeing that pain or experiencing that pain again.’ In those cases you have to be brave, in those cases you have to have to put your hand into God’s hand and say, ‘Father, off we go!’ And you will find that you can remove the baggage from your past and from your aura and from your dense vibrations without the pain that you expected to find there.

It sounded as you were talking to me like you were saying that things got heavier, and heavier, and heavier. Well, they do in the normal course of things, but in this room we are not experiencing the normal course of things – we are experiencing the spiritual course of things. We are experiencing liberation and it is liberation that I want and the people who work with me want. This is not ‘I’ in the sense of ‘Joseph, the Great I’ – this is Joseph in the sense of Joseph the spokesperson that wants you to be free, wants you to be happy, wants you to be peaceful and wants you, more than anything, to come home. We don’t want you to be here – not for life ...after life ...after life ...after life. We want you to come home, and this is why I am speaking this evening and this is why I am using someone else’s physical facilities to get through to you. Have I answered your question?

Questioner: Yes, thank you.

Tony Clarkson: Can I ask a question further to that question?

Joseph: Yes.

Tony: This denseness and heaviness that accumulates, can it come from before life or can it come also from external sources like the Astral Plane?

Joseph: That is an excellent question and it is a long answer. Consider this: if you drag with you baggage from one life and have not learned by the end of that life to let go of it, isn’t it reasonable to assume that you will also drag cumulative baggage that relates to the physical with you so that when you reincarnate it is waiting for you as a ‘nice present’? …But not from anyone else – from yourself! You have not yet decided that you have had enough of these circumstances and so you drag them around with you. It is inevitable if you come back into a physical body and you have not yet worked those things away from you that they come to visit you and to haunt you once again.

As I explained earlier, there is also a problem with low vibrations. When you become low, when you become upset, when you become disturbed or in pain then you resonate at a certain low level. And, unfortunately, there are existing at a similar level various thought-forms, various entities, various spirits who have not learned, who find you a very attractive ‘snack’ indeed, who regard the vibrations that you are putting out as something that will draw them closer to the physical; and so they try to anchor onto you, to attach themselves to you and to maintain – and this is important – to maintain the low level of energy that you are putting out. They cannot absorb higher levels of energy but they can absorb your misery. And so you have people, do you not, who say: ‘I have been depressed for days and I don’t know why. I can’t seem to find any joy in life and I don’t know why.’

There is something you can do …and the something you can do is to raise your vibrations above the level of those who would perpetuate your low-level vibrations. You can do it in several ways but meditation is the most effective way to go. You can see yourself travelling up an escalator, and at the bottom of the escalator you have grey, grey scenery and as you progress up the escalator it becomes increasingly light – increasingly light – until at the top you are stepping off that escalator into a land of perfect, brilliant, beautiful, loving, warm Light. Stay there as long as you can and then bring yourself out of your meditation by returning to this level of consciousness, and you will help to rid yourself of the things that you pick up on a daily basis.

It sounds terrible doesn’t it? It sounds like the Earth is such a dangerous place.

Well, I have news for you – it is!

It is and, just as angels minister to you, there are darker aspects of mankind that would also communicate with you in a ruinous way if they got the opportunity. This is not a reason to be afraid; this is another reason to understand the mechanics of spirituality and the physics of spirituality. Once you understand something then it loses its power over you. And, please, if you wake up on a certain morning and think, ‘I am depressed and I don’t know why’ – begin to separate yourself from that depression ...begin to say, ‘This is not me!’ ...begin to say, ‘Where is this coming from?’ ...begin to say, ‘Thank you very much but I want no more of this – you can have back that gift!’ ...begin to meditate and lift your vibrations and see how quickly you will be on top form again and how much better you will feel.

Have I answered your question?

Tony: Absolutely excellent, thank you.

Joseph: I will just say a little bit about some of the people who work with me. You would not imagine, would you, that we, as spirits, grow anxious? But we do grow anxious for mankind and we grow impatient, and we have to take ourselves away and we have to meditate and we have to say: ‘Enough of this, Joseph, this is not the way to do it! You have to become calm or you will be of no use to the people on Earth.’

We are anxious because we can see what you cannot see because we can see the other layers of consciousness that operate around you that try to influence you and we can see the Field. Oh, dear me, the Field! Oh, dear me, the thickness, the heaviness, the stickiness of the Field of mankind that always expects the worst …and so creates the worst! And so we become anxious and so we try to imprint orbs onto photographs, we try to make a difference to make you aware wherever we can. And it is a privilege to be able to talk to you this evening and it is a privilege we want to expand. It is a privilege that we want to see operating all over the place – not with me as a speaker – but with similar speakers, a similar group-consciousness bringing these points of Light around the globe so that they network, so that they join up and give us less anxiety and give you the lives that you deserve.

You deserve!

I want to get that through to you tonight: you deserve a good life; you deserve to be healthy; you deserve to create and be happy in your creativity. You deserve all of these things because you are an outpouring of God and God deserves to create; God deserves to have Love. You deserve these things and, unfortunately, the Field ingrains you with a sense of being inadequate from the time that you are born: ‘You don’t really deserve this. You don’t really deserve the riches. You don’t really deserve the health. You don’t really deserve the Love. You don’t really deserve the peace.’

Of course you do!

This is one of the things that you must take away and let go of, ‘I am not worthy!’ Yes, you are! Whilst you say, ‘I am not worthy’ you are not worthy because you create the unworthiness. You have to say, ‘I deserve the best!’ Remember that your religions often tell you that you do not and it is good to be poor. Is God poor? Does God at the end of the week have to look for loose change to make ends meet? Of course not! You do not have to be poor! There is nothing worthy about being poor and being poor comes from being poor in spirit – from not understanding the mechanics of the physical universe that you are a part of for a short time.

Is there another question, please?

John Hill: Can I ask a question? A little while ago you mentioned reincarnation. Well, if we have reincarnated several times from a distant past to where we are today, we must be higher up the ladder from where we started, presumably. And, if it is so, if we are in a kind of trouble before we arrive on this Earth and if all the people we meet at that point [are too] surely we must be having to meet people because of lessons we have not learned. So, all this going forward can only be done if you have met people that add to those problems, which have met you on the way back. If you cannot advance further on this ladder without having problems – I hear you talking about how to get rid of your problems – but if it is a logical progression from a long time ago to where we are today, and if it is a structural ladder surely we need the knocks, we need the experiences from all these people? And someone might come for about two minutes to say, ‘Good morning’ and you feel wonderful but it doesn’t mean to say you have spend twelve weeks with them or anything. Everyone who is a partner – you are spending some time with someone and you are actually spending a lifetime but somebody you meet on the bus you are spending half an hour with and so for that person to get to meet you, if you get a lesson from that meeting and if it is a bad lesson you have to meet it so someone is helping you – is it an intricate way of going up the ladder that is leading towards a spiritual solution?

Joseph: Gosh, that’s a busy question!

[Audience laughter]

There is a spiritual ladder but for a number of people they keep revolving around the same rung, and we have to bring into the answer to your question, the question of free will. If you do not as a soul – and remember only part of your consciousness is on the surface, as it were – if you do not as a soul wish to leave this plane, I cannot make you leave, God cannot make you leave, the people who are part of your spiritual family on that side cannot make you leave because you are exercising your free will.

The only way that you can eventually decide to stop spinning around that rung and take a step up is through God speaking to you (as I mentioned before) via the things, as you rightly say, that happen to you in life. And the things that happen to you in life, if you consider your life, are a series of letting-goes, of saying: ‘I have had that experience – I don’t need it. I have touched the fire – I don’t want to do that again. I have sat for a thousand years on a rock contemplating mankind – I don’t need to do that again.’ ...until eventually, through your own volition and no one else’s (because God has given you ultimate free will), you decide that you have had enough of the physical existence and want to explore elsewhere.

Of course there are good spirits (there are no other kinds of spirit), of course the people that you meet on the bus or at work or wherever you meet them... of course they are good spirits. It is only a degree: you have a good spirit or a positive spirit or an evolving spirit and you have a spirit that is also evolving that is mired in the stickiness of the Field – we talk about ‘good’ and ‘evil’ in the book [reference to Revelation] and about how those are misnomers.

But your reincarnations do not have to be nose-to-tail; they do not have to be this helter-skelter of coming back …and coming back …and coming back …and coming back because [smiling], like everything else in your world, there is some queuing involved. And so you do return to a very pleasant place and are allowed to live in that place and are allowed to look at your options, but ultimately there are still many spirits who feel that they have unfinished business on Earth and that unfinished business needs to be taken care of in one lifetime or in a dozen lifetimes. And so given the option (I know this sounds strange to you on a physical level) of moving on or returning to address what they see – not what God sees, not what the advisors who sit around them and try to help them see – what they see as being imperative in the growth of their soul, they come back mistakenly to repeat what has happened before or to terminate, as they see it, unfinished business by bringing it, as they see it, to a conclusion.

There is no ‘unfinished’ business – there is only experience and the results and consequences of that experience ...but [smiling] as they say, you try telling that to the kids these days! People want to come back until they don’t and so, yes, the experience is there to teach you and, yes, it is beneficial but it is a long-cut. It is a painful way round when the quick journey, when the short-cut is to go within and experience the truths within and apply those truths to your life because they transform your life. And you look at things that before were so important to you and say, ‘They don’t matter anymore.’ Or you look at them and say, ‘I was tied to this situation, now I choose not to be.’

So, yes, of course mankind is evolving but not quickly enough! The Earth is finite on a physical level; the Earth is tied into the Field and the two are in a worrying state at the moment, so we are trying to bring Light into individual consciousness to light up their existence so that they know from the heart, from within, why they are here, how long they should be here and where they want to go to next. And we are trying to bring Light to the globe too, to disperse the Field as it is and to return this world to the Utopia it once was.

Have I answered that very complex question?

John: Yes, thank you.

Joseph: Thank you. God bless!

OK. [Pause] Three more questions, please!

Gale Sagar: I have a question. When Michael started talking [reference to his introduction] he said that you had worked with him a long time in other lives – have you done this kind of work with him before in another life, and when Michael’s life ends on this Earth plane what will you do then?

Joseph: I will be joyous and also very sorry in equal measure. We have touched the group soul that Michael is a part of before, but ‘before’ is a relative term because time does not unfold itself quite for us as it does for you. And there has been preparation for people like Michael and groups of people who are working through this world now for a long time, because there first has to be the volition to return on behalf of the spirit – in this case Michael – who seeks to bring through the information. Remember what we have just been talking about – there comes a time when the spirit wants to move on and says, ‘Oh, gosh, do I really have to go back?’ And so there has to be a preparation process; there has to be a cutting-off process where the speaker does not have access to the layers of his (in this case) soul that would make this journey something that he would not undertake. Had he full knowledge of who he was on a soul level he would seek to step aside from this work and not go through his own personal evolution as a soul – because you have to remember that Michael is also evolving as a soul and Michael has trials and tribulations to go through.

But the answer to your question is I have known him for a long time. He cannot remember that – he believes that I made contact with him around five years ago but that is not the case. I made physical contact with him then, with his physical mind and physical body, but I have been in contact with him since his moment of incarnation. It had to be so. The other guides that work with him are also connected to him in this way.

I have my separate existence. I have my life which is rich and full and I enjoy it, and there are times when I need to retreat but I am always linked to Michael so that communication can take place when it is asked for. Mine is not the function of a guide who will speak to him through his intuition to help him through those creaky, difficult moments of his life. My function is to bring through communication. I am aware to a lesser or a greater degree, depending on how close to Michael’s sphere of influence I am at any given time, as to what is happening in his life but I am not allowed to interfere with anything that is happening in his life. Certain of his guides are allowed to advise him through his intuition (as your guides advise you through your intuition) but I am not allowed to do that (which is upsetting to me at times) because my sole function is purely to act as a communicator.

Is that a suitable response?

Gale: Yes, thank you.

Joseph: Another question, please!

Mary: Can I ask a question, Joseph? A lot of people have come forward to work for the Light – is that helping the Field and is that helping to lighten the load?

Joseph: Any worker for the Light lightens the load. What you have to remember is that you have a global Field, you have a Field that is influenced by millions of souls and, as I am sure each of you in this room realises, whenever you work for the Light there is an equal pull to try and take you away from that work, and the harder you seem to work for the Light, the harder and tougher it seems to be to reach that Light.

I do not want to discourage you (I have no business to discourage you) because every act of Light and Love does lift people up, but you are not yet at the stage where there is enough of a change of mind globally for there to be a permanent difference in the Field. Having said that, there are miracles on a daily basis and they are brought about through communication and through manipulation of people who are working for the Light – so do not be discouraged.

Also understand that there is a plan to all this; that, as you say, there are many people now who are being born who are ready to work for the Light who have certain of their soul memories intact so that they can sweep aside the physicality of this world more quickly than most people can and start to make a difference... and it is the ‘ripples in a pond’ effect. Ripples in a pond – there is a ripple over there ...there is a ripple here ...there is a ripple in front of you ...there is a ripple behind you ...there is a ripple that you have caused ...ripples of Light going out into the Field. And the more ripples of Light, the more the Field becomes charged with Light and begins to change, which is the plan for it …but it is a long job in terms of physical time.

It is a long job because the world is rooted in adoring materiality. It believes that happiness exists in the next car, or the next house, or the next DVD, or the next object... and when do those objects ever bring happiness? And those objects are being worshipped. God does not require your worship – He requires your attention so that His plan can work through you.

You solidify the objects around you by adoring them, by giving them power. So, you see on a physical level a representation of what is happening on a soul level to your world – you see the fridges and the televisions piling up, you see the rubbish, you see the junk, and this is again God speaking to you and saying: ‘This is what is happening within the Field that you are a part of.’ Take your eyes off the materiality, withdraw from it. Use it, yes, but do not become a part of it. Do not buy into it to the extent that your soul suffers.

...A big job but many people are being born to change things. Within a couple of generations (please God, Father above and within, please God!) things will change more rapidly, more quickly. There have to be pioneers and you are a pioneer. Keep on!

Have I answered your question?

Mary: Yes, thank you.

Joseph: I am going to have to give this body back in a moment.

Joe Hellak: You mentioned the word ‘God’ many times, Joseph, which is a word that doesn’t sit comfortably with a lot of people. How should we conceive God or is that purely an individual thing?

Joseph: You come from Divine Consciousness. You are Divine Consciousness. On a God-level there is nothing else but Divine Consciousness.

It hurts us to realise that people are uncomfortable with the term ‘God’ but they are uncomfortable with the term ‘God’ either because they have approached God through religion and found Him wanting or because they look at the world with physical eyes and say: ‘There cannot be a God – if there was a God such things would not exist.’

Well, such things would not exist if we all changed our minds – nothing to do with God. Not God’s fault! Not God’s fault!

And many religions build, around their image of God, rules:

Do this or God will be upset! ...Don’t do this and God will reward you! ...Do not talk to these people! ...Do not embrace those people! ...Do not think outside of our rules!

And those who are brainwashed by such religions look at God and think: ‘What a terrible God! How can God be like this?’ God is not like this.

GOD IS. YOU ARE. That is all there is to Creation.

That is all there is to everything:

GOD IS.

YOU ARE.

You exist to experience on behalf of yourself and on behalf of God. Everything else is where it gets muddy; everything else is where it goes wrong. We have to bring back to mankind the concept of there being an ‘Issuer’ – a Father that brought us forth but a Father that is also us. We have to bring that concept back because with Godlessness you have the society that you see in front of you. But it is a difficult task because, in connecting people with God in the right way, you have to strip away their misconceptions, their preconceptions and their disbeliefs.

‘I cannot see God!’ say the atheists …and they see nothing but God in front of them and within themselves, and they will continue to exist when they pass from this life despite themselves.

What a shock – and so much work that needs to be done in order to bring them around to the concept that:

1) They are still alive.

2) God exists and is part of them … is them.

When we deny God we deny ourselves, we deny what we are and there is so much fear of being more than the individual on this level of consciousness, of being anything more than one point. As I stand talking to you, I am also viewing myself talking to you through your eyes. As I stand talking to you I also sit at home in my level – on my illusion that I can collapse at any time and go into the ‘no-thing’. I cannot hurt you. I cannot call you. I cannot judge you because I am you and I am God and you are God.

God is not the property of priests. God is not the property of elite religions. God is you and you are part of each other for ever and ever and ever and ever. Amen.

Have I answered your question?

Joe: Yes, thank you.

Joseph: I am reminded of cars with boosters on them where you can just boost to get a little more fuel out and, with Michael’s permission, that is what I intend to do because there is still energy for communication. I may have to exit at some point and, if I do so, thank you in advance for listening to me but does anyone else have anything they would like to ask?

Male member of the audience: I have a question... you talk about time and that time is different for you. Is time set linearly or can you go forwards and backwards as you wish?

Joseph: You experience your outside world, your physical world on this level as a linear existence ...point …to point …to point …to point moving forwards, but isn’t it also true that within yourself you experience movements in time backwards and forwards? You relive things that happened to you seemingly years ago. You go forwards and extrapolate as to what will happen to you in the future. The nature of time can be dismissed by presenting good mediumship as an argument because, through your good mediums, the future (as you see it) can be seen. What is actually been revealed to the medium, through communication with higher levels of being, are the consequences of what happens to a person extrapolated into their future experiences...

Sorry let me re-group that – I am losing the communication. I am sorry but I will try to answer the question.

Yes, we can re-experience, on our level, things that have happened to us ‘before’ (as you would understand it) – we can revisit those lives and relive those lives. And at a certain point in your future you will do the same thing because you will revisit the life that you are living now, and not just revisit it and review it, but relive parts of it so that you can understand the experiences that you have gone through.

Time does not exist but in order for you to experience a physical existence it has to have an order; it has to have a linearity. But that linearity, if you step back from it, is a circle, and your experience of your life is a point at any given time within and upon a circle that leads you back to the spirit world so that you can start out on another cycle of experience.

So, your perception of time is, in reality, a cycle of experience and not time at all.

You experience decay on a physical level and you measure time through decay – someone is getting older, that building is falling apart. Decay and time are two different things. You attribute something to decay that does not actually exist. And have you noticed how you can travel backwards and forwards in time dependent on how you are enjoying or being upset by an experience? If you are in a bubble of delight over something that you love doing the available time seems to go very quickly. If you are sad or upset or bored through something that you are having to experience – that time seems to go very slowly. An hour of joyous time goes quickly; an hour of sad time goes slowly …but in both cases, isn’t it an hour?

You have the ability to travel backwards and forwards in time now. You do so at night because at night you leave your physical body and you reunite with the people that you know on the spirit level – with your guides, with your spiritual family, with your group soul – and you are outside of time. You may see – or mediums see – spirits who come to them at different points in their incarnations so the same spirit can visit a medium once and [the medium can] see him as a child and another time see him as an old person or even a different person because it is all to do with the internal clock – with the clock of experience.

I am sorry, I am going to have to terminate the communication because I have tired the instrument beyond the point that I should do so. I should know better, I do know better …but I will do it again!
