Illusions
Many and varied are our thoughts about the nature of life and its purpose, but we often find it hard to understand where we should be and what we should be doing. Challenging our understanding, the Masters often talk about the physical universe as being an illusion. We believe that the questions answered this week may help to make that word "illusion" more understandable.
The first question has a small mix of ways that the writer has been told help people to progress toward their desired spiritual evolution. On reading it, our reaction was to ask what was special about this list. There are many other ways to reach our spiritual goal. The Masters talk about the illusions that people create: everyone's world is different. If the items on our list of "must do" are meaningful to us and provide a road to our personal fulfillment, then it is the path we may take. Some people create illusions of their pathway and sell them to others. It may be that one such illusion resonates with us. However, we each grow in our own way, and our intention and illusions can be more helpful than other people's ideas.
Most of us have illusions about who and what we are. The second writer, suffering from self-imposed isolation, has chosen to stay on the fringe of society, largely silent. The Masters uncover assumptions that have led their correspondent away from positive belief that other people will be welcoming and that self-love can open up acceptance in society. The illusion has been that people don't want to know - but they do.
The third writer seems to be sadly confused in considering Earth's duality and ideas that are contained in a variety of spiritual lessons. The Masters respond to clarify the place negativity has in our lives, and the positive or negative roles we may choose to play. Souls, they say, create an illusory world to provide for their desired education.
We are completing two more books that we hope will be available soon. One of them is similar to the successful Spirit World Wisdom,which contains short, selected essays by the Masters. The other book is Peter's memoir of how he moved from traditional Christianity to adopting the teaching of the Masters.
We are looking for donors to help us translate The Masters' Reincarnation Handbook into Chinese. The total cost will be about $1,250 (USD). We are currently giving away a lot of copies of the recently completed Portuguese version. Our friends in Malaysia and Singapore have expressed delight that this definitive booklet will be available in their own language.
Light, Love, and Laughter,
Toni and Peter

QESTION: Masters, I would like to know how do we prepare ourselves to make the leap into the new age/earth (5th dimension). There is a lot of talk about DNA activation and a lot of other means such as Light Language & Etheric Crystals & Golden Key activation. Which do we use or DO we? What will happen if we don’t do any activation but just have complete trust? Would we still get to evolve in the same rate as those who get all these activations done? What about the people who are still negative and prefer to be negative? What happens to them when these energies come about? Maya, Brunei
ANSWER: The world, as people see it, is an illusion they set forth and created for themselves. What you interact with are the situations that you draw to you because you need to experience them in order to complete the lessons you chose before coming to Earth. Everyone’s world is different.
In the arena of spirituality even the terminology varies. For simplicity we talk about three dimensions; other groups speak of as many as 217 levels or more. We speak of the human Earthly level, or third dimension, controlled by the thinking mind/ego ruled by judgment; the completely nonphysical, unconditionally loving fifth dimension of Source (religions refer to this as Heaven or Nirvana); and the fourth dimension, which is where the soul is leaving the human body and making decisions concerning returning to Source energy or hanging on for a while longer in the ego-based energy.
Various philosophies for consciousness expansion encourage you to follow different routes. These are the ones that the proponents have found work for them, or the sets of classes they can sell to you. Since no two people are alike, what works for one may not work for another.
All of the things you mention have proven helpful to people for the purpose of getting in touch with their internal essence, but not everything works for or can be felt by everyone. To answer your question concerning which is for you, only you know the answer to that. What resonates with you and allows you to better connect with the universe? Progress can come with or without outside stimulation – intention is the driving force.
You can only grow on your own. Those people who are in negative mentality are not ready to enter enlightenment. They do not even know what they want, so they cannot create an illusion for transformation.

QUESTION: Masters, I am struggling at work with communication. I’m a foreigner here and I can see in people’s faces that sometimes they don’t understand me so I sit quietly so as to not make a fool of myself. And the other thing is that I create a distance with people from work. Where is that from? Is it self-esteem or some father issues? I do see a difference in communication but what exactly is the reason that I keep myself silent. What’s the biggest lesson here? Marga, Ireland
ANSWER: When you were a child learning to walk, you were not upset when you fell because your balance was not yet perfected. Learning the new language and local customs of a new place is just like learning to walk all over again. The problem you cause yourself is your expectation of knowing exactly what to do in each situation before you have the knowledge you need to be at ease.
You are hyper-sensitive to the imagined reactions of your co-workers. Some find your attempts to fit in very endearing, but you are not giving them the ability to tell you so because you shy away from contact. This reaction comes from deep inside you, not just from this instance. You have been beaten down and told you are nothing and will never be able to fit in. That is the truth only if you allow it to be.
You are a beautiful soul, but you have never been able to accept that fact and love yourself. The imagined thoughts and taunts of others can affect you only if you allow them to. What is vital is how you feel about yourself. Are you accepting of the wisdom you contain inside? You need to become comfortable within your own body. Love yourself for being who you are – the one who has the awareness of your inner beauty.
When you accept yourself, and disregard what you believe others are thinking or saying about you, you will find it easy to share yourself with others. Have confidence in who you are and what you think. Don’t let others tell you what you should be able to do. Relax and enjoy contact with others. If you feel embarrassed with your degree of language skills, ask people to assist you – they will be delighted.
You have created a self-imposed prison. It will remain as long as you hold the door shut. Know that you mean only to communicate and learn. Take the first step toward integrating into the workplace. If you don’t try to be a part of the group, it will never happen.

QUESTION: Masters, it’s hard to believe that planet Earth will exist from the duality. We are dedicated to achieving a level of higher consciousness and thus expand along the level of collective consciousness of humanity. Gaia is extremely loving to welcome us in these conditions mental, emotional and etheric. The duality invades our thoughts and dreams as if they were part of us, but this is an illusion. We are made of unconditional love and believe this is the lesson to be learned for all mankind. Perhaps for this reason I feel so homesick for a home I cannot remember completely. Aline, Brasil
ANSWER: You sound as if you are trying to convince yourself of the information you speak. There is a confusion of lessons in your statements. Duality is a fact because Gaia was created for the exact purpose of providing the arena where souls could work to find the positive side of their chosen negative lessons. Earth will continue to exist as this type of venue for as long as any souls wish to learn more about themselves and their abilities.
Souls are unconditionally loving when in their energetic form. Once they enter into a human body they do so to confront something in negativity. The world they create to have these lessons is an illusion constructed with the necessary traits to allow for their desired education. The people near them all have different illusions going on simultaneously to permit their individual plans to play out.
You are currently undergoing a life where you are dedicated to expanding your consciousness, but there are those who are there to experience negativity alone. You may even choose a subsequent life based on a negative characteristic where the only place to learn all its aspects is Earth. The journey of one person very rarely influences the lifetimes of those sharing the planet during that time period.
The more aware or enlightened people become, the more they tap into the collective memories of their unconditionally loving essence. After a while, awakening souls yearn for that fantastic feeling of Home. Don’t concern yourself with others; just follow your path.

Reincarnation Guide
Chris, Brazil, asks the Masters: I have sought to find a way to personal and spiritual growth. I had disappointment in a business and problems with my former partner. This brought me sadness, anger and fear. I feel paralyzed but have coped with these feelings and have done my readings, prayers and meditations. What lessons must I learn about issues with my ex-partner and problems related to my old company?
ANSWER: It is time to close the door on the past. Release yourself from people and situations that now cannot be changed. Forgive if that is possible. As you take charge of your future seek to discover your indwelling soul who has much to offer you. The soul is part of the eternal Source energy, it is the one to whom you should turn for guidance. It is up to you to ask for advice. Ask and it will be opened to you.
Kashvi, India, asks the Masters: Can Karma be cleansed? Masters in my city say I have Mental Body blockages and Financial and Business karma blockages, and negative soul memory. They say it can be cleansed for an exchange of money. Apparently I had stolen in my past life and therefore I have a financial Karma Blockage. So I would like to know if Karma can be cleansed.
ANSWER: The people you call “Masters” have a good thing going for them. They frighten nice people like you into giving them money for lies and bad advice. You have fallen for their deception. There is no such thing as a financial karma blockage. Escape from them before they do you any more harm. Spend time in developing your self-love – you are a wonderful person. The only blockage you have is not having complete faith in your own abilities.
Anuraj, India, asks the Masters: I lost my soul brother( a dear childhood friend) after a long illness. He was a very gentle soul. I just wish to know whether he is in a happy space, and will we reunite in heaven or another reincarnation? I have had an out-of-body experience past his physical death, and my perspective towards life and death changed. Does my brother have any message for me? How should I proceed in my spiritual journey?
ANSWER: Your soul brother is at Home with us and has been sending you positive energy so you may remain closely linked. He is well, happy and fully occupied, and says he will welcome you when it is your turn to transition. Your experience has provided you with a greater certainty of the spirit world. Start your journey by increasing your self-esteem. You have more to offer the world than you have recognized. Enjoy your talents and your positivity.
Sarah, Australia, asks the Masters: I'm not well, will I get better and live a long life?
ANSWER: Your soul is eternal. You will always be alive. We cannot tell whether or not your dis-ease may be healed. It is up to you to accept what other people do to heal you, and also to strengthen your own desire and ability to visualize yourself in good health. This acceptance and visualization are most important in self-healing.
Jair, Brazil, asks the Masters: I have a beautiful family, I have a degree in mechanical engineering with specialization in logistics and production, entento, cannot provide the sustaining of my family. Why this happens?
ANSWER: Sometimes putting others first can be of real help. If you are unable to provide for your family you may have to rethink your career. You have a fine mind and a loving heart. This problem is a life lesson designed to help you understand the nature of negativity and the value of unconditional love. We may not solve your life lesson for you: your trained mind, together with the path your soul has for you will provide the answer you need. Contact your soul.
Wanda, USA, asks the Masters: I am married to a man who is not bad, but he is always negative. He thinks everyone should think like he thinks, but his ideas are selfish. His world is all about him. I made a vow and will keep it, but how do you live with a man like this and keep peace and harmony in your life?
ANSWER: Your man is a bully. He has found a way to control people and make them slaves to his way of thinking. This way he has broken the vow he made to love you. We do not hold you to any vow. You are free to choose how to respond and whether to stay or go. Maybe you should tell him that your relationship may come to an end. Choose slavery if you prefer.
Juliana, Brazil, asks the Masters: I feel that I awoke and seeking spiritual evolution every day. I changed a lot but I feel lost, lonely. Everyone around me are still immersed in the illusion. My husband does not listen when I want to talk about this matter. I have some mission? I have a feeling that I will soon be called, but do not know for what. I want to begin to meditate.
ANSWER: Meditation is a very good way to start. Try walking alone, letting your conscious mind drift and allowing feelings, that come up inside you, to surface. Trust them and begin to act on these positive feelings. Your husband and friends will be more likely to respond, as you hope, when you are in tune with your higher mind, and you fully love yourself. Spiritual life is caught by connecting with the universe not taught.
Patricia, Portugal, asks the Masters: What´s my mission?
ANSWER: Your purpose is to find and know your beautiful soul. Compare your inner loving attitude, known to you by your most positive feelings, with your reaction to negative experiences that come into your life. Making this comparison you will grow to understand your soul's essence of unconditional love. So you will add to the wisdom of the eternal Source of which you are a part.
Silva, Portugal, asks the Masters: I still do not live my mission, I have for several years made therapies, which have helped, still feel that something is missing, it really depends on me but ignorance or self-sabotage have not gotten by my parents that alternates between father and mother. And I'm anxious and depressed to be invited to social environments with parties and weddings.
ANSWER: It is true that self-sabotage has stood in the way of your spiritual growth. But you will get nowhere blaming your parents. You are in charge of your own life, nobody else. Listen to your own mind, take note of positive ideas that come into your mind. Be ready to be different. Be yourself. Your powerful and exciting soul is full of ideas to help you. Take time to become aware of your soul. Start a conversation: the answers will come into the feeling part of your mind. You will succeed.
Silvano, Brazil, asks the Masters: I'm with a married woman. I'm with sexual problems. What's the lesson? What can I do to resolve our situation?
ANSWER: You started with one of the causes: she’s married. You need to give her a chance to leave a situation that is causing her distress and say goodbye. Sexual problems fall into two groups. Physical (medical) issues should be dealt with at once by a physician or clinic; Psychological problems that affect your enjoyment of sex and your virility need to be treated by looking into your life and how you have let physical pleasure take the place of real self-love.
Kristin, USA, asks the Masters: I met this guy almost a year ago. The meeting was intense and our relationship has been up and down since we met. Over time he wanted to just be friends and I just found out that almost the whole time I've known him he was expecting a child with his on and off again girlfriend whom he had a son with when I met him. I feel like he is my twin soul and we just aren't meant to be together right now. I feel betrayed and I don't know if I should keep him in my life as a friend.
ANSWER: Believe us – if something has gone wrong he cannot be your twin. He is a soul mate who is playing sex games that hurt people like you. Your souls (among others) contracted for this to happen so you might learn the lesson. You can choose to thirst for this philanderer who will always treat you like a door mat, or you can love yourself and get out: your choice.
Samantha, UK, asks the Masters: When I pray laying down I get a warm feeling in my stomach. Recently I have noticed this feeling sitting up when I have not been praying, in fact I have got as I type this. Is it telling me I don't have to pray?
ANSWER: Nobody has to pray, it is quite voluntary. What is happening to you is that instead of praying to an unknowable god person you have begun to realize that your soul, who is within your body and contacts you through your highest knowing is a small part of the unconditionally loving Source energy. This energy is closer to you than hands and feet: it is within you. As you have begun to understand that unconsciously you have discovered the warmth of that eternal love. Go on talking, and note the positive feelings that constitute the answer.
Nonetheless, when the economy suddenly grinds to a halt, war actions have begun, and thugs in armored cars can be seen on the streets, that should provide enough of a wake-up slap to get the attention of the public.
Seriously, though, I'll just ask God what to do and follow whatever guidance comes to mind. If "he" answers, "prepare to die," well, I'll cross that bridge when I get there....
