Joseph: I want to begin this morning with a view of concentric circles and the nature of God.

What I mean by ‘concentric circles’ is the type of motion formed by a whirlpool or a galaxy, if you were to put the movement of a galaxy into reverse. There are two movements from God: one is a spreading out and one is a drawing in, and each of us is caught, at the moment, in a drawing in because God draws everything back to Himself. He draws those aspects of Himself – those sparks of Himself that are His children – back to Himself to embrace them, to debrief them and to send them out again.

Each soul brings back to the Godhead experience, and there is no fleeing from the Godhead. It amuses us to see various statements being made about there being no God …that man is independent …that it is up to man to explore his own destiny …that he is completely free of Divine aspects when, in fact, the reverse is true because every soul is a ‘sentinel’ or point of experience that is inevitably drawn back to God. From the moment you are sent out into experience as part of the angelic host masked in physicality, you are moving back to that start-point. Your whole purpose in the normal course of things, excluding the effects of the Fall (in other words in other spheres of experience and in this sphere of experience once the effects of the Fall have been negated), the whole course of your experience is to take you back to God.

Always you are returning ‘Home’ – always from physicality, always from the point of view of being one of the angelic host – you are returning Home; you are reporting back; you are taking back information. So, the purpose of your life in the normal course of events (again excluding the effects of the Fall) is to bring back experience, is to share with the Godhead and with God’s other children your particular findings, your particular route of creativity, your particular point of view which, when filtered away from the physical …when concentrated on the spiritual effects of your journey… enhance the Godhead.

In other words, what you take back is not the pettiness of physical existence within this sphere – not the bickering, not the quest for power, not the antagonistic point of view. You take back the effects radiated on your spirit of all those things we have just mentioned but the best aspects of them – the growth, the learning, the expansion, the moving away from the pettiness of the surface. You take that sweetness and refinement of spirit back to the Godhead.

And, as a result of assimilating and viewing that information through millions and millions of viewpoints, the Godhead comes to conclusions about the future of the Godhead and the future of the Godhead’s children.

So, life appears to be an expansion outwards; but, in effect, is an expansion inwards.

Do you see …not the irony of that… but the beauty of that? What you consider to be an outward journey from childhood into adulthood, then a calming down, a decline and an end into nothing is actually a journey back. It is not an outward journey.

It is a journey outwards only to meet the fields of experience that allow you to become more, to understand more, to have unique viewpoints, and then to bring those unique viewpoints back to God so that God can make use of them to enhance you and to enhance Himself in order to make the whole business of creation and experience …the outward journey and the concentric circles of your life that bring you back to the Godhead… richer, more fulfilling, more joyous, more blissful.

…Because let us remember that, outside of the effects of the Field, it is bliss that is your natural state. It is the bliss of experiencing, the bliss of being unique and also one – one with the Godhead, one with yourself – a unique bond between the two of You. There is bliss in your brothers and sisters and in experiencing and sharing their points of view because, don’t forget, the points of view that you bring back can be shared and experienced by many. That is also the point – once those experiences are brought back to the Godhead they are accessible. They are, of course, accessible to the Godhead from the moment they are brought back and at other moments too, but they are also accessible to His children once they have been brought back. They can access those points of view in order to become more …always in order to become more.

I would like to ask you to view your lives from this point onwards as a return …not as a flame that is lit in the darkness and then is snuffed out… but as a return. Your progression through life is a return, and you are, at any point, within a concentric circle that, like a whirlpool, will draw you back to its centre. And all you have to do in order to be brought back to that centre is nothing …nothing at all except to accept that you are part of that process.

You can slow down your return to that centre (as we have discussed in other books) by your refusal to accept that there is anything greater than you, that you are part of God’s plan and that there is a plan for you, but inevitably (and if it takes a million years) you will discover that you are in a process of return – a return to glory, a return to higher things – so that you can set out again with another ‘suitcase’ and other furnishings that will take you into another arena of experience so that you can return again …outwards …inwards …outwards …inwards – as I described the movements of the universe in a previous book [reference to chapter one of Illumination].

It applies to everything. Everything exists within the Godhead and, therefore, everything is a process of sending out in order to experience and to return. From the point of you becoming individualised as an angelic being; from the point of you deciding to undertake a particular journey; from the very point you set out, you are returning.

I wanted to open this book with something of joy, with something of upliftment as times seemingly get darker around you because they are not what they seem. You cannot help but return! When the day is dark, when the path is grey, when you cannot see ahead – remember you are returning and that those obstacles and challenges around you are simply illusions that you will pass through, and inevitably you will re-inhabit the creative heart of God and be sent out again in joy to experience again.

This might seem a strange way to introduce a book that you have no knowledge of rather than by just saying, ‘Hello again!’ But, from my point of view, it isn’t hello again – it is simply that I have started speaking again at the point that I stopped last time at the end of the last book. There has been no gap for me, and I knew that you would inevitably return to this point where more information could be given out. So I warmly re-welcome you (from your point of view – not from mine) into the group. From my point of view, you have never been away and, from your point of view, I hope that reinforces what I have just said about concentric circles and about us returning to the centre.

Now, what is this book to be?

…This book is to be a further book of information on spiritual topics that need expanding upon – some topics we will have touched upon before as part of the examination of the state of humankind at this time, and there will also be new topics that we haven’t had time thus far to examine. And so, with great joy, I invite a question.

Jane: Joseph, could I ask a question about ‘stasis’? We are each an individual viewpoint of God, and that is the most precious thing we have. In the spirit realms people are consciously aware in most cases, and even in our sleep we have an awareness, but when souls want to reincarnate after the world has come to an end [reference to the repeating cycle of cataclysm] they have to be put into stasis. It seems a terrible thing that souls who want to come back to the Earth are not aware of anything for millions of years.

Joseph: There is never total lack of awareness, but we have been entrusted – as spirits who have gone some way in alleviating ourselves from the effects of the Fall – with the ability to make the path for those who are still steeped in the effects of the Fall and repeating the pattern as painless and as easy as it can be.

So, for those souls (once, of course, they have experienced the events that lead up to stasis) it is simply a matter of them leaving a point of consciousness and then waking up to another point of consciousness …much as you would do in a dream. You go to sleep at night, leaving a certain set of circumstances behind, and you then awaken with no real concept of the passage of time. You are in a dream-state with a different sense of time within that dream-state, and from point ‘A’ to point ‘B’ it is as though the two actually meet. In a perfect sleep it is as though you close your eyes one second, you open them again, and you continue with your existence at the point you left off.

This, of course, doesn’t happen with stasis because the point of consciousness that you re-awaken into is a different point of consciousness – it will be a different body; it can be a different form of body; it will be a different location. But, you have to remember that each person is still at core the spirit they were before they went into stasis, so there is a comfort with being who they are. If you consider yourself as you were when you were a child, you were not discomforted by the fact that you were in a new body. You were familiar with it, but it is not the body that you are familiar with – it is yourself. You cannot take yourself away from yourself. So, at the point at which a spirit goes into stasis, they are themselves as a spirit and recognise that. At the point that they awaken from stasis, they are themselves and still recognise that.

So, it is not the vehicle or the location that is a problem. It is the ‘mountain’ to face in, once again, raising yourself as a spirit out of the effects of the Fall, recognising that you should not and don’t have to be tied to this set of circumstances, that you are not imprisoned in them and that you can this time – if you listen to your spiritual core and connection to the Godhead – alleviate the effects of the Fall and escape from them. Do you see?

Jane: Yes. Is there a group of souls who control the stasis? Like the groups who control the different environments in the spiritual spheres, is there a group that keeps them asleep and safeguards them somehow?

Joseph: It is an identical process to the one that is applied when a spirit decides to reincarnate. There is, with a spirit wishing to reincarnate against all good advice, a period when that spirit is prepared for reincarnation. There is a withdrawing from the spiritual world into a state of ‘no-thing’ (in other words – no physical molecules around that soul), preparing that soul for the time when it incarnates into physical matter. It is a similar process, and there is a… [pause] …words again fail me here. I wanted to say ‘a band of brothers’ or ‘a band of souls’, but there is a specific movement that allows the process of going into stasis and being brought out of it to take place.

We are not involved in that. We are involved in the ‘persuasive argument’ (if that is the right term) to allow souls to escape from the effects of the Fall. But, there are angelic beings (as we are all angelic beings) that are tasked with surrounding the souls going into stasis with certain energies to cleanse from around them any physical entrapment from the life they have just been living and the lives they have lived thus far. The effects of those lives are stored with the soul. They are always there, but the actual physical molecules are cleared away from around them so that they can enter into a state of no-thing …but still be a spirit. Do you see that? They are still a point of God, but they are not surrounded by any ‘thing’.

Then they are within a certain waveband of energy that is maintained by the love of those spirits that have put them into that state, but it is not a conscious thing on behalf of those spirits. They are not thinking all the time, ‘I must keep these people in stasis.’ They have put around them a certain wavelength of energy that maintains them in stasis, and that wavelength of energy is maintained by …an analogy would be… ‘something in the back of the mind’ of those spirits who have put them into stasis.

And then (because we are talking about the Earth, stasis and the effects of the Fall) when the Earth has been rested and regenerated to the point where souls can once again inhabit it and decide whether or not they want to move on from the bubble of illusion they placed themselves in at the time of the Fall, they are pushed forward into another band of energy that draws around them physicality. This is a very simple way of putting it but they are, in effect, from the charge of one band of spirits given over into the charge of another band of spirits – the Lords of Karma – who then prepare them (as we have said in previous books) for incarnation again. Does that make sense?

Jane: Yes. Could I just ask one final thing? As each soul relating to the Earth is one of the two halves of an angelic being [reference to the information given in the Fall book], if one goes into stasis and the other is in the spirit realms waiting for millions of years, isn’t that quite heart-breaking for them both?

Joseph: It is heart-breaking for us all. The most heart-breaking aspect of all of this is that you are not privy to (because of your encasement in matter) the boundless love that we are able to express and feel for each other.

Because of the effects of the Fall, you are aware through your physicality (unless you reach down into your core) only of conflict, only of love ‘at a price’, only of pale aspects of what love really is. It is our natural state to love each other …not to just say the words but to express that love as a part of ourselves and our natural state. We are unable to show you what that love feels like …except in short bursts when you break through your physicality. And so it is heart-breaking for us all and not just those souls who have been separated by the effects of the Fall with one, as you say, in the higher realms and one, for example, in stasis or on the Earth.

But, you generally find that the link between such souls is so strong that they share the elevation of the higher soul on a subconscious level. It cannot be otherwise – they are one being, and so there is some consolation in that the two halves of the soul are rarely apart for too long. It is unusual for one half to incarnate …and incarnate …and incarnate when the other half has learnt to elevate itself.

There is also that allowance, because of the goodness and Love of God, for the soul in the higher realms to stay close to the lower realms or Earth plane, and attempt to donate learning and experience to its other half so that the other half becomes more aware of its spiritual self in a contracted amount of time.

As for the heartbreak and millions of years …‘millions of years’ is a concept that I hope we have explained fully in the books that have gone before this one. In other words, ‘millions of years’ is your concept; ‘millions of years’ is an effect of the Fall that embraces you and plunges you into what you consider to be linear time but is no such thing. And so, from the point of view of the soul on the other side, time passes at a different rate, and there is always the ability to unite with the other half of the soul during the dream-time or relaxing times of the soul still encased in matter. The separation is actually harder on the soul encased in matter than it is on the soul that is elevated away from that matter because the elevated soul can see the progress being made, knows that there is escape from the effects of the Fall, knows that the link with its other half can never be broken and knows that eventually that soul will come out into the Light. So, it is a different viewpoint.

It is a good question because it illustrates the two viewpoints, and you can say to the people who are suffering on Earth at this time, thinking they are lonely or that life is stacked against them that, in effect, they have another half …maybe that half is with them on Earth or maybe it is in the spiritual realms… but that other half is bathed in glory (as are they at core), and inevitably one day they will reunite. Inevitably! And so, in the darkest times of the souls on Earth who are suffering, there is something to look forward to because the suffering that is an illusion will eventually pass away, and they will inevitably be reunited with their other half. They will be reinvested with their spiritual values and abilities, and then they will move on as one back through those concentric circles to the point that is God …and will be brought out again into more glorious realms of physicality and creativity together. Does that answer your question?

Jane: That’s wonderful! Thank you.

Tony: My earlier experience on this Earth was in running and building businesses, and the process involved in making adjustments according to market information so that, if something wasn’t working in a particular area, we could be flexible and move the business to more appropriate areas in which to succeed. I understand that we are here now working our way back to God and the experiences we have (which is the important part of us being here) are what we take back to God. From what you are saying, Joseph, the Godhead gains experience from millions and millions of us taking our experiences back to Him so that He can learn. What happens with all that information at the Godhead? If it’s not working for people caught in the effects of the Fall, and if that is the experience of the majority of people coming back to the Godhead, is it feasible that the rules can be changed at a higher level to make the journey more successful and productive for us?

Joseph: There are things to consider here. You talk of the millions of souls going back to the Godhead, but what you have to remember is that there are billions and billions and billions of other souls outside the experience of the Fall that are returning to the Godhead in the normal course of events and according to God’s law and God’s will. So, to offset this tiny corner of creativity in the universe, there is a returning to God constantly of the experiences that those souls and the Godhead want.

I think this question illuminates the seriousness of the effects of the Fall – in that it illustrates how this one small corner has taken a step that has taken itself ‘out of step’ with the normal course of events. God’s universe (as we have said previously) runs entirely through free will. The actions of His children are all free-will actions. God cannot restrict part of Himself (as we have also mentioned before). In the case of the Fall, through free will, those souls involved (albeit through thinking initially that their actions would result in a ‘shining jewel’ to bring back to God) divorced themselves from the normal course of events. It is free will that holds those souls on such an uneasy path …just as it will be free will that eventually brings them back onto the path that billions and billions of other souls travel.

God is free will. It is not a gift to His children – it is simply a part of Himself. So, it is not that He can change a rule; it is that He cannot change what He is. He is free will and, therefore, each of the souls within the Fall, are free will too. So, they are still operating within God’s plan for His children …it is just that they have used that free will to put up ‘a wall’.

You are correct in saying that, if something doesn’t work in the business world, you revert to plan ‘B’ or plan ‘C’. You look at it in a different way, and that, in effect, is what God is waiting for the souls entrapped in the effects of the Fall to do …to revert to plan ‘B’ …to look back and say: ’This isn’t working! I’m going to leave it. I am not going to invest any more time, effort or creativity into it.’

And, at that point there is an option, but the option has to be created by the souls that are, at this point, trapped within the effects of the Fall. It is exactly the same process – as you would expect it to be – because, in business dealings or whatever a soul chooses to do in life, they are drawing on God-power. The way things come to them and stack up as a ‘plan’ for them is based on God-power. That God-power, in many, many cases, is then perverted by the wills and actions of the souls trapped within the Fall …but the basic plan is God-power. So, if you look at any creative endeavour within the effects of the Fall, it is based on God-power. It cannot be based on anything else because ultimately there is nothing else. But, then it is coloured, built upon and distorted by the effects of the Fall and by the insistence of the spirit drawing on that original concept of being right: ‘I am right. Therefore, this is still the way to go. This is still the business plan that needs to be adhered to!’ …even though, clearly, it isn’t working. Do you see that?

Tony: I do. Thank you very much.

Joseph: This is where heartbreak comes in because, if you see your brother faltering and see a different way (which we have been able to see because the scales have fallen from our eyes through our own endeavours) then you wish to stand on a mountain, bang a drum and say,’ There is another way!’ And the fact that we can only do this slowly is heart-breaking. The fact that we can give this information out and yet have so many so immersed in the physical that they ignore it is heart-breaking. But, what is ‘illuminating’ (and I use that word carefully) is the effect of the people who do read the information, absorb it and remember it because they then become a point of Light. And a point of Light shines into other people’s lives and illuminates what is right and what is wrong with those lives and the need for change.

[Pause]

At a low ebb, I am afraid, David. …I must ask you for a question. We must start this new book with each of us asking something…

David: I was just going to follow on from what you said, and ask about people shedding Light on others and the amounts of Light they actually bring through compared with people who don’t shed Light… i.e. you said in an earlier session that one person transmitting Light counters the darkness of a thousand who are not. Is that the case?

Joseph: It is entirely the case. I wish I could bring through an illustration of it, but maybe if I put it in these terms: You are God. Each soul is God …a portion of God, yes, but also God. When you talk to the Father and when you pray, in effect, you are praying to yourself. God’s creativity is infinite. God’s ability to love, to nurture and to guide is infinite. When you remember the Fall and remember who you are, you have access to Light within yourself but also to all the Light within God …all the Light within God. So, in the measure that you push away from you the beliefs of the rest of mankind, you are an infinitely powerful tool for illuminating the rest of the world.

How far does that Light go? Well, it always nourishes; it always ignites the spark within others. There is a ‘pilot light’ within each person, and that ‘pilot light’ is powered to the point where it bursts back into flame. Even if your Light falls within a soul so entrenched within the effects of the Fall that it can only see darkness, anger, perversion and violence, you are maintaining that ‘pilot light’. You are preparing it for the time when it will burst into flame. And you channelling an infinite amount of Light from the Godhead …and another channelling an infinite amount of Light from the Godhead …and another …and another …and another eventually causes that ‘pilot light’ to burst forth into flame. It is an inevitability.

You are, as a consciously illuminated being, chasing away the ‘shadows’ within other people’s souls because the violence …and the perversion …and the anger …and the greed …and the power-struggle are all nightmares. Each soul within the effects of the Fall, until they re-illuminate themselves (by their own efforts or with the help of others), is dreaming …dreaming a nightmare that they have invested in and believe in. What a terrible thing to believe in a nightmare and then to say, ‘I am having bad dreams – my life is bad.’

…It is bad because you have invested in the nightmare, but the move into the Light is simply a matter of shining Light into the shadows to chase away the nightmare. If you put enough Light-energy into someone they cannot but remember who they are.

A good question to start with, and I would say to each person reading this: when you work for the Light you have infinite power because God is infinite, and you are part of God so you are drawing on that power. We gave the number before of one illuminated being combating a million souls who are encased within the Fall, but that was just a number. You are infinitely powerful when you reach inside and send out the Light of God – INFINITELY POWERFUL.

Each day that you send Light into the world, your confidence will grow: ‘Now I am reaching more souls …now I am reaching more countries …now I am shining Light into the darkest corners of the world …now I am healing the world. But not ‘I’ – the God within me is doing these things and I am a beacon for that Light.’

This is not an arrogance; it is simply a fact because, as an angelic being, that is your function – to create with Light as you create each day in heavy matter. …You create what is ahead of you …you create with your hands …you create with your mind …you create each second that unfolds before you. As an angelic being you do exactly the same thing except you create with brilliant God-Light that has not been polluted by the effects of that experiment that went wrong, and, as such, you are an infinitely creative being. Is that a sufficient answer?

David: Yes, thank you.

Joseph: At this point I would just like to say it is a joy to be connected again and to be transmitting information once more.
