Your August 2009 Questions
Answered by The Novenian Masters

How will the transition from our current social system to one that is more caring about our planet and those who live upon it take place?
There will be a splitting off or movement away from your current system by individuals who will make choices to become more and more self-sufficient where they are not tied to the monetary system. They will begin to raise their own food as well as their consciousness. They will begin to involve their communities in this through education, through giving to and supporting their communities. Through these acts they will begin to break away from their ties to your current establishment and society. As this begins to become more widespread in your world, and more groups begin to live in this new way, these new communities will become stronger. They will understand the need to care for your Earth and for each other and a new way of living upon your planet will begin.

And as you let go of the past and embrace a new way of being, you will experience a freedom that was always meant to be yours. It is your birthright. It is the giving of yourself for the sake of love and sharing. And you will let go of giving for the sake of what you will receive. It is a shift in attitude that will bring you into a state of peace and community, and give you a sense of freedom that you will savor.

And those that make the choice to hold onto the threads that connect them to the past belief system will find that they will become more and more bound by their greed and selfishness. So you will find two separate ways of being, existing at the same time. So we say to you, make your choices. For in choice there are great lessons and the experience that you have will bring you back to your true self.

How do I bring more abundance into my world?
The idea of abundance is that of gratitude. For you see, whatever situation that you are in, there is always something to be grateful for. There are individuals in your world living in poverty; dire conditions that many of you cannot even imagine. These individuals still have things for which they are grateful, gratitude for simple gifts, for the sustenance of their lives, for family.

So gratitude is an attitude. If you look around and see through the eyes of gratitude, you will begin to see your life in a new light. You will begin to see all the gifts that surround you and the abundance that you already have. Begin to emanate a vibration of abundance thereby drawing more of the same to you. So it is your expression of gratitude for what you are presently experiencing that brings abundance into your life. Begin by recognizing the experience you have already created and be grateful.

How do I begin to make choices that are in harmony with the Earth and the movement towards conscious awakening?
We say to you, look within your heart. Choose harmony over discord. Say to yourself, “I am connected with all of life. In this particular choice that I have before me, what is the way that allows love to be expressed?” Choose love. This does not mean that in all situations you would lie down and passively give away your power. For love can speak in many ways. In some times love can be stern. But before you choose, before you act, ask yourself if your actions are coming from a desire to share your connection and love or coming from your own fear. Then choose to love with all of your being.

Could you talk about the difference between desiring something and using the creative force to create it?
Desire is reaching out for that carrot that dangles just a short distance beyond your reach but with that desire you can never reach the carrot. Creation is knowing that you are moving towards your final outcome and in the belief that it is already yours, you take the steps to reach there. It is a belief. You will never reach your destination by desiring it. For in the act of desiring you will run round and round always desiring. When you move from the belief in creation, you will always reach your destination for you are creating. You are acting upon the belief that you are creating and so it comes into your existence. It is a subtle difference in belief with great significance.

Are you connected to The White Brotherhood?
The White brotherhood is a term to describe the Ascended Masters or Angelic Beings who have chosen to be of service as messengers of the Divine to all those who seek. We would say that it is our choice to be of service and as we are connected with all life we certainly are connected with this grouping and are a part of all those who serve the light and bring teachings of love as to support the efforts of the earth to cleanse self and to evolve into a higher awakening of consciousness. They are our brothers as you are. It is a term that has been used to identify this group of entities who have chosen to be of service. It would include all angelic beings, guides, guardian angels, archangels, all brothers and sisters in love of which we are a part.

Why do some Earthlings struggle so with issues of obesity?
In general, it is a condition where an individual is not able to embrace their feelings. So it is a way to escape feeling or processing their feelings. So if you have this condition you must begin to allow yourself to look at the hurt that you are feeling, the uncertainty of your emotions, and begin to look for the source of these feelings. Stop running from your feelings and you will start a process of healing that will bring you into the ability to shed the burden of excess weight. Say you are at peace with your feelings no matter what those feelings are. Allow them to begin to come to the surface to heal. This is the root cause of obesity.

Begin to process your feelings that you have buried deep within and have surrounded with excess flesh or weight to buffer yourself from having to experience these feelings. Begin to search them out and bring them forward to your conscious mind and this will bring balance into your life. It may be necessary to work with another individual who is trained to help you to deal with these feelings as they begin to surface.
