Lacking desire for intimacy

July 30th, 2019

QUESTION: Masters I rarely have desire for intimacy. I don’t believe this is normal specially when I am with someone that I love. What is the cause for this and what can I do to change this? Is it just an issue of mine or of my partner’s as well? ~Marika, UK

ANSWER: There is no such thing as “normal” applying to all souls having human experiences. You are caught up in what you think, by the example of what you see happening in society around you, is necessary for loving relationships. That completely depends upon the partners.

There are situations where intense love relationships exist without sexual intimacy. In cases where circumstances prevent contact – such as in paralysis, possible contagion, emotional fragility, and physical distance – the partners may provide solace to each other through communication alone. Some also abstain through vows of celibacy but still pair up for companionship.

You deeply desire and have a need for love, for being the object of the care of another, but while you can tolerate touching and holding, giving yourself over to the ministrations of another freaks you out. This stems from incidents in your earlier life where you were used by another against your will, and now you have an intense need for being in control over your body, which you do not feel is possible during sex.

You can examine your feelings and see if it is possible to restore a sense of confidence in another’s control for short periods of time. During a flashback of fear, go into the event and try to return to the cause. Once you have arrived, look at the incident through your adult eyes and see that it has nothing to do with your current status. You will then be able to release your blockage. This may or may not open you to desiring to engage in intimacy, but it will give you another perspective on your actions.

Any time you have a relationship, what happens within it is the choice of both parties. You have your hang-ups regarding sex, and your partner has to decide whether that is or is not a vital aspect of why he loves you. Being “in love” means accepting your partner and all that represents who they are. Intimacy is not an integral part of love.

Animals as a food source

July 23rd, 2019

QUESTION: Masters I have always believed that animals were bred to serve as food for humans. When I read the blade of a channel of Saint Germain, I saw that I was mistaken, and stopped consuming animal flesh. But the question remains: what is wrong with the passage of Jesus’ multiplication of fish to feed his followers? And with Him helping fishermen on their bread? And with the father having the fatted calf killed, to commemorate the return of the prodigal son? I’m not vegan, because like egg and cheese, that’s what’s left of everything I liked the most. I am wrong? ~Luiz, Brazil

ANSWER: In a spiritual sense there is no such thing as being right or wrong because there is no duality. Choosing between a negative and positive solution to a situation is part of the learning process within the third dimension. It is the way a soul having a human experience completes their life lessons.

No one can tell you what the best way is for you to learn or to complete your life’s journey. What is perfect for one individual is disastrous for another. You are beginning to compare the writings of one alleged author with the supposed teachings of others. You cannot give one hundred percent validity to the recordings on any event of practice since they are coming through the minds of another and not the originator.

Channelings may be verbatim from the mouth of the speaker or they may be “interpreted” by the channeler to reflect the channeler’s own opinions or prejudices. A story passed down from century to century by human memory may be accurate or may be based upon a parable or belief system.

People must decide what they wish to accept as their own beliefs by using their own intuition and feelings and what they have been told and read from the beliefs of others. You have been presented with differing opinions on the purpose of farm animals. You may choose to believe either one; they are right only to the acceptance of each person. Animals are raised for consumption. To some that is inhumane and wrong, while to others it is necessary for nourishing their physical bodies. The choice is yours; neither is totally right or wrong.

The stories from the Bible were compiled for teaching purposes and not to commemorate a particular event. It is the intention behind the story that has value. Sharing, charity, forgiveness, gratitude, living life are the bases for the parables.

To learn what you came to learn – your purpose being to understand yourself as a soul and that, being a piece of Source energy, you have certain powers and abilities you may use – start relying upon yourself. When a question arises, ask: What do I feel about this? What do I truly wish to do? Start feeling and not thinking; that turns you from the decisions of others to your own journey.

Is violence a life lesson?

July 23rd, 2019

QUESTION: Masters, are violent acts such as murder, assault, rape etc. part of lessons and chosen before incarnation, or are they an indication that the person committing them has ignored their lessons and repressed their positive energy, turning it into anger, hate and violence instead? ~M., India

ANSWER: Everything occurring within the duality is a life lesson. Negativity only exists on Earth, so it is the only place where one might experience the hideous events you mention.

A soul chooses the various categories of experiences it desires. Generally there is not a determination of exactly what will occur – just that they want to be in control in situations involving others. If one’s journey includes all aspects of sexual activities, that might lead them to rape or sexual enslavement. If they are studying loss of control, it would contain acts of rage possibly leading to murder.

These facts are their lessons; they are not something they fall into because a gentler lesson has not been completed. All lessons are undertaken in negativity, which is why they can only be engaged in while in the duality of Earth. It is using one’s freedom of choice to move from a negative lesson into a positive love phase that shows the soul understands their journey.

An incarnate experience is taking that anger, violence, and hatred and recognizing that there is another way to live and interact with others. This is the trip through your lessons. All the negative possibilities involve the ego judgment of the human mind. It decides that it is the better, the badder, the only one who can make decisions for all. 

The knowledge of the chosen lesson is accomplished when the ego is put aside and the soul comes out and turns to loving evaluation. This can occur with any person who is truly working toward self-understanding. You can assist in this transition by sending unconditional love to all who are struggling with their work, with the intention that they might see what they are doing and choose to embrace the positive.
