PERSEPHONE: This is Persephone. I am on assignment, part of an outreach mission from Nebadonia to aid you and your planet in the upliftment of energy for individuals. The circuits to your planet have been opened and for most of you, particularly those who have requested, your mind circuits have also been opened so that you may grow, connect to universe mind, cosmic mind, which is the governance of Nebadonia, the Mother Spirit of this Local Universe. It is our hope that the lesson today will aid you in understanding this process more fully.

PERSEPHONE: This is Persephone. I am on assignment, part of an outreach mission from [[Nebadonia]] to aid you and your planet in the upliftment of energy for [[individuals]]. The [[circuits]] to your planet have been opened and for most of you, particularly those who have requested, your mind circuits have also been opened so that you may grow, connect to [[universe]] mind, [[cosmic]] mind, which is the governance of Nebadonia, the [[Mother Spirit]] of this [[Local Universe]]. It is our hope that the lesson today will aid you in understanding this process more fully.

First of all, you truly are unique and separate individuals; there is no interference on our part in your thinking. Your situation is much like parachutists in an airplane—you attach your static line to the cord that will pull your parachute free, once you leave the airplane—you are connected; you are one with spirit in mind and in energy, but you are free as well. We are reminded of one of your bumper stickers: "Minds and parachutes only work when they are open." So dear friends, we ask you to open your minds to new possibilities in your lives, how you live, how you think, and how you connect to others and the universe and to the Infinite Spirit, Mother Spirit, Nebadonia.

This is all voluntary. It is much like being invited to a large building—a large building has been built but is not occupied; and so, you determine to go to this building and walk through it, but it is very dark inside. And you wish to know the way; you wish to know how to proceed, where to go to discover the right space that would be useful for you, and so, you go to a light switch and turn on the switch. And there is light and you can see, and so you proceed to one light switch and another, from one floor to another, turning on switches as you go, discovering the content in each level of the building, as you go upward. This is a good metaphor for the process of opening your minds, connecting to the universe circuits and enlarging your capacity to think about your world, your universe and your relationship with all others. You can have the whole building; you can occupy all of it; you could have it all—but you must turn on the switches; you must decide to get on the elevator or the stairs and go to the next floor, to a higher level. It is all voluntary; you make the decisions, and your decisions are sovereign, whether to open your mind to the universe circuits of energy and light, to information and knowledge and connectedness to all that exists—or not. No one will interfere. When you say, "No, I choose not to turn on the switches; I am just going to be here on the ground floor, really connected, really grounded—I’ll live where I am." And no one will bother you.

Our assistance to you is manifold and I will provide you with numerous metaphors and analogies today, to assist you in understanding the presence of Michael’s work and Nebadonia’s work. Our collective work is like the many billboards that are in the city and along the highways. You can see them, and understand the marketing approach, you see the products or services and decide to accept them or not. It is very passive, very benign, very gentle, very caring.

Nebadonia’s energy, her consciousness, the presence of Nebadonia is pervasive throughout Nebadon. She is here. She is present. Along with her presence is the circuit of cosmic mind. It is always available to you. You can always connect to it. That is your decision. Now, how do you do that? First, it is to decide whether you want to grow in this lifetime in a spiritual and energetic manner or means. Your options are many: you can go fast; you can go slow—or go not at all. You can go up one floor and stop, or you can go to the top floor, if you wish.

You recall that Jesus and many other Masters have told you about "right living." Right living prevents chaos in your thinking, it helps to order your mind so that you can more competently live in peace in your world and in your relationships with yourself and with others, and eventually with celestial teachers, angels, and all of the unseen beings of the universe, which far out-number you. So you decide, "Yes, I want to do this. I want to begin. I will accept the invitation; I will turn on this switch." When you do, light can only pervade that which is open—doors block the light to the hidden spaces. If you have secrets from yourself or from others, then these are doors that block your mind and the circuits from the entry of spiritual light and awakening in your mind. Your mind is not your brain; your mind is an energetic construct that is very similar in performance to software. You can control how it operates: you can will it to expand, to grow, to become powerful, and to aid your course in life. "Right living" assists your mind to keep the doors open. Moral, ethical living makes it so the energy can flow uniformly, freely and to distribute itself throughout your mind circuits. There is something about the mind that knows, even when you willfully decide to violate moral or ethical rules, that this has blocked openness in your mind. You may be totally convinced that you are right in your actions—but this will cause a blockage to where the lights and the circuits and the energy of mind expansion can proceed.

[[Moral]], [[ethical]] living makes it so the energy can flow uniformly, freely and to distribute itself throughout your [[mind circuits]].

Let us say that you have decided to live a good life—right living—and to proceed well. You decide—you say out loud or in writing or in your mind, or all three—that you wish to open your mind to the greatest extent that it is capable, to all the energy, the wisdom and expansion that is available through cosmic mind. Now this is where angels come in to help—they help you open the circuits of your mind. They are minded, capable assistants to help work your mind so it remains open. Be at peace about this process; there is no urgency or rush to crash about and hurry up the process of living your life in concert and coordination with your local universe energy. If you are open to grow, say, "I am open to grow." You can say that within yourself now, and that you wish to grow to the greatest extent you possibly can under Christ Michael’s and your angel’s guidance and tutelage. You will be guided forward, along the plan for your life, the one that you came with when you were born. This is an imprint in your mind; it is an imprint in your being; it is part of who you are. You carry it with you —it is an energetic imprint upon your life.

You may say, "Well, I think my life plan may limit me. I want to do this —I want to do that —I think I can do this better on my own." You are surely free to do that. No one would criticize your decision to do that, and you will be assisted in those areas where you request assistance. And remember that when you are assisted, this is assistance in a very uniform way. It is not startling, it is not sudden, it is not critical, it is not preferential—it is for you and your highest good. Your life will change, if you wish it to. If you are free and energetic and courageous, you can engage the risk of growing—and remember that there is only good for you when you grow.

Student: There is a group of us that are learning the ascension process as taught by the Ashiyas. Is this process, … would you consider it to be the number one priority that we could possibly do for our spiritual growth and fulfillment?
