Mediumship: Starting the Channeling Session; Interference by Negative Polarity

September 17, 2021 Friday Evening, Mediums Group

Barbara: Thank you. I’m sharing about how to offer support specifically when we’re doing Remembering Wholeness, but also the nights with Aaron, or any time I or anybody else is channeling.

There are several components, the things that I’m doing myself or spirit doing with me, when I’m channeling.

First, the importance of intention. Holding a very clear intention, why you are there, to support positive spirit coming through.

I have a couple of steps when I start to channel.

One is to start to raise my vibrational frequency high enough so that I have a clear connection with spirit.

One is to create a sacred space with high vibration that’s so uncomfortable for anything that might be negatively polarized that it says, “Nah, I’m leaving, I’m checking out.”

One is to feel within the whole circle any places where there is some negativity, where something negative is hovering over or sticking to somebody, and to offer special protection for that person.

Now, I’m not doing this myself. I’m holding the intention and inviting support from spirit. But clearly, I have need to be in many places at once.

When it was 10 people in my living room it was different. It was good training because it wasn’t always easy, but workable. But now we’re 80 or 90 people, not for Remembering Wholeness but for the class. That means there are more new people who are, if I can use this term—please don’t misunderstand me, but weaker links. People who are not experienced, who don’t know how to hold their own clear intention, who more easily get caught in negative thoughts, emotions, body sensations, and spin out a bit. And in doing so, they open the door so that negativity can come in.

Imagine if we were having a party in a lovely room with big windows and doors all the way around, looking out to beautiful scenery. We’ve put up a sign that says, “Check your weapons at the door. No alcohol, no drugs.” We haven’t said, “Everybody who’s in here must be happy,” but, “Please check your anger at the door. Try to come in with an attitude of openheartedness, and if anger arises, you know the practice is to hold space for it, not tom enact it.”

So, we expect it to be a peaceful party. But a few people sneak in with a pocketknife, a hidden flask or whatever kind of drugs, a big anger at some other people. The Jets and the Sharks. They’re all there together.

I definitely will want to have people at the door checking out who is coming in. Did you truly leave your weapons or your anger or your drugs at the door? Your strong negative biases? Can you just set them out there on the terrace and leave them for now?

This is your job. Of course, you’re not each assigned to a door. But the whole group works together. Most of you are familiar with the Casa and the term current, a current of energy flowing through. And that current when it’s strong and clear serves as a deterrent.

There may be those coming up to the door, sticking a knife somewhere where nobody else will see it, tucking their anger down deep in a pocket. But your energy, your high energy says to them, “Uh-uh. We’ve got this covered.” They have free will. They may come in. We don’t say, “No, you may not enter,” only, “Here is this high energy, and if you come in, you’re going to have to hold space for this high energy, to live with it.” It is a very powerful deterrent.

So, as a group, the whole current, you’re guarding the door. You’re guarding the energy. You’re holding the energy at a high vibration. Some of you were in the class last semester when there was screen sharing and somebody shared the screen, putting up an image that they particularly wanted to share with people, which was filled with tumultuous darkness. It was very uncomfortable. A lot of people really felt the darkness coming from the image.

Darkness cannot come in unless invited. If we open the door and say, “All are welcome, but this is a place of high loving energy, of healing, of no harm to any being,” darkness can still come in, but there must be some way for it to come in, some opening or invitation for such negativity.

In Remembering Wholeness especially, there are often new people who are in a lot of turmoil, feeling a lot of body or emotional pain. All of you are experienced and know what that kind of turmoil feels like. You don’t have to pin it down to a person at all; you just feel that that energy is present and begin to hold loving space for it, while making the statement, “You may not speak. You may not disturb this space. You may sit and listen.”

As we hold that loving space, that which is negative either leaves or it does sit and listen, which is good; we want negativity to listen.

If I have to do all this myself, clearly, I can’t. It’s even harder when we’re on Zoom because your energy is not always as strong and immediate as it is when we’re sitting in the same room.

Each of your participation is vital. Feeling the energy of the others, feeling the light and love in the room, and just opening to it. “Thank you.” Really feeling it. And feeling any negativity and just saying that “Have a seat. Have tea. But shh—you may not speak. You may not be active.”

And then if there seems to be somebody who is feeling a lot of turmoil, without opening your eyes, without seeing where it’s coming from, you know t how to feel that pain, and just, “I hold you in love.” Just opening and holding almost a protective umbrella around that person.

There’s a kind of sanctuary created for the whole circle, and also extending out to anyplace where people are feeling a lot of turmoil, pain, strong emotion, strong negativity.

As we do this, it gives you wonderful experience in how to say no to anything that’s negative in your life, whether it’s another human being or a situation, or your roof is leaking, or whatever it may be; how to say no to it.

So, this is an opportunity for service and an opportunity for you to learn and become more grounded, continuously more grounded in the light.

I’m going to invite Aaron to speak for just a few minutes and then open space for questions. I don’t think I’ve said anything here that all of you in the circle have not already heard.

So I bring Aaron in. No matter how many thousands of times I’ve invited him into the body, I challenge. I feel his energy. Holding the intention to let him enter.

“Do you come for the highest good of all beings and harm to none?”

“Do you come deeply grounded in love?” And I get a yes to each.

“Do you come fully resonant with the Christ energy?” Yes.

“I consecrate this mind, body, and spirit to the light.”

And then I offer him the use of the body.

Aaron: And here I am. I am Aaron. I thank Barbara for all she has said, and I really don’t have much to add, only to thank you and to let you know your help truly is vital.

Barbara can easily channel safely with 4 or 5 people, with no support. I can incorporate into her body doing these private sessions, for example, or a small group; there is not a problem.

But when the group gets very large, and especially with Remembering Wholeness where there are often people in a lot of pain and new people, there’s a difference. With Remembering Wholeness, there often new people. With the Aaron nights, that loyal opposition would prefer we not be able to go ahead with it. It would prefer to make a disturbance, to get in our way. It will if it can.

We don’t gather up sticks and chase that loyal opposition. We just say, “Have a seat. Have tea. Shhh— you may not interfere.” And we’re very clear, “You may not interfere.”

What stops that interference is your high vibration. It’s like having an electric fence around us; something that doesn’t mind high energy can walk right through the fence, but that which is discomforted by the high energy will back away.

But you do not offer that energy as an act of aggression. Only, “This is sacred space and we hold it in love.”

I’m going to let the Mother (first he said Mary, then corrected) speak also for a minute…

The Mother: My love to you, my dear friends. Not Mary; I am the Mother. Aaron used the wrong name for me. He’s become very used to having Mary come in. This is the Mother, here. Sorry for the confusion. Aaron apologizes. He says he may be enlightened but he still makes mistakes!

I am the Mother. The work we do in Remembering Wholeness is so beautiful. It brings me much joy, and I know it brings you much joy, too. And I especially appreciate that we open the doors to new people, increasingly so now that we’re on Zoom and international audience.

As you gather before the Remembering Wholeness session, hopefully at least 15 or 20 minutes before, settle yourself and create a spaciousness and light, opening your heart, holding your intention for service to all beings.

It’s useful, I think, before you close your eyes to look around at the Zoom room to see who else is there. Even perhaps to join in half an hour early so there can be a bit of time of greeting each other, because that’s important. There’s a lot of love and connection shared in the group.

Then, quiet down.

Hold your intention that this gathering be for the highest good of all beings.

And that within the gathering, each being may remember their own awakened true nature, their own essence of love.

From that position, you will offer support as if you are holding their hands; from that position you help them to find the strength to release that which is negative in their experience and bring forth that which is filled with light.

If you could imagine yourself doing this in a room where somebody has come in who is very sad, frightened, angry, depressed, scared, scared to be with their demons, and you greet that person at the door and they say, “I’m terrified,” what would you do for that person?

You might hold their hand, give them a hug. Say, “Come and sit next to me. It’s safe. And you can experience both the negativity that you’re feeling right now and also much light and love, because you are the light and love. And we’re here to help you move more fully into the truth of your being and release that which is old conditioning of fear.” Can you feel how that would be, to greet each person at the door.

Now, we can’t do it that way because we have the big Zoom screen. But as a collective circle, you do this.

Most of you have the deep intuitive sense of moving to where there is pain or negativity and just holding space for that person and for whatever is hanging onto that person.

These are the basics of what we are doing. And now we’re going to open to questions. We have another 10 minutes.

I am the Mother and I’m happy to hear your questions, or they can be transferred to Aaron or to Barbara.

Q: Is this a good situation for using tonglen meditation?

The Mother: I don’t think tonglen is the most useful right there. Leave the tonglen to the entities who are helping to support raising energy and release. Just compassion meditation or metta. Holding beings in love. Because it is not you who are doing the support and release in the direct way— that is me. Or with the Aaron night, that is Aaron. But especially with Remembering Wholeness, Father John, myself, and other entities, we are doing the tonglen, if I could put it that way. You just hold love, remember love. Hold it out, make it available.

Q: Is there a visualization or a procedure that we all might do at the beginning of any channeled session where we are supporting, that brings us into a unified sense of support space?

The Mother: Thank you, Q. The unified space is the loving heart. It doesn’t have to be anything intricate, just locating your own loving heart and finding the place where it comes together with everyone’s loving heart.

You might think of a situation. Let’s say you have been asked to be the ushers and usherettes at a dear friend’s wedding. You only know some of the people who are attending; you don’t know everybody. You’ve been told that there are some very jealous past partners who may crash the wedding. But you don’t want to disturb the wedding with fistfights.

Greet each person lovingly. “You are welcome here. This is a house of love, and we are celebrating love within this circle. If you come with love in your hearts, you are welcome.” And you say this with so much love. Just that. That image may help.

No confrontations here. Your own high energy will be the tool that will make negative beings back up and say, “I’m leaving.”

Are there other questions for me or for Aaron?

Q: This past Tuesday Evening with Aaron, Aaron paused to address the disturbance through technology. We experienced this twice or more in the Dharma Path in the past several months. How is that different? Is there a way to address that specifically, turning the intention or attention to that, to technology?

The Mother: Thank you, Q. First, I think this is important, that word needs to be gotten out that everybody in Remembering Wholeness is requested not to put up those lovely but open-door backgrounds.

Somehow in the gap between the face and that photographed background there’s a place that negativity seems to use to creep in. People have felt this.

So yes, the backgrounds are beautiful. But far better that we skip the backgrounds and simply enjoy people in their own living rooms or gardens, and no backgrounds.

We already have a posted policy against screen-sharing anything that has not been pre-approved by Barbara and that spirit has had the chance to cleanse it, if necessary. Because any image can pick up negativity from the time it’s first viewed a week earlier and the time it’s aired. I think if we follow those guidelines, this will help.

Remember, this loyal opposition, they want to interfere. They’re mischievous. There is nothing strongly negative that is coming in or Aaron and others would have attended to it.

We’re more concerned about the little bits that slip through with somebody who is very upset or angry or afraid, and something riding on their coattails.

We don’t want to open the door unnecessarily to that which is negative and might try to slip through. It’s easier to stop it at the beginning.

There is nothing here for you to be afraid of. I want to remind you that I have a very strong high energy. With Remembering Wholeness, I am in charge. I am taking care of it. I thank you for helping me. The help is mostly for Barbara, because when I must draw on that kind of power and high vibration to stop something negative, it can more or less knock Barbara out; not right there and then, but after the session is ended.

But I’m taking care of it. And on Aaron’s nights, he is taking care of it. And Father John, Love, Yeshua, Mary Magdalene, all of these beings are very capable of stopping, blocking anything that would do harm.

You are helping to support so that Barbara isn’t exhausted at the end. Do you understand?

Q: What could you say to us that are wondering, “Are we doing it right?”…

The Mother: (smiling) Of course you are doing it right or you would not be in this circle here! You are all hand-selected as people who know how to do it right, even those who as yet don’t have much practice with it.

Let go of your doubt. Know your radiance. Trust your radiance. I love you.

It is 8 pm and I don’t want to hold the group unnecessarily. Are there any other questions for me, for Aaron, or for Barbara?

Q: This is a great duty; we get to send you lots of love and energy, and that sounds like the basic assignment. Love it!

The Mother: That’s the basic assignment— love! Love one another. Love the loyal opposition, too. Love. Find the love in your heart.

Q: You got it.

The Mother: There is a song that Barbara learned from the Casa. I can’t sing it. I’ve never heard it in terms of the tune.

Give me love in my heart

Keep me praising

Give me love in my heart

I pray

Give me love in my heart

Keep me praising

Til the end of day.

Sing, hosanna…

There’s a chorus, there..

Give me love, give me joy in my heart, give me peace in my heart, give me light in my heart—that’s it.

And of course, this is healing for you. It is not a denial of anything painful. It’s a reminder that right there with pain is joy. Right there with anger is love. A reminder of the non-duality.

You are that awakened being with love in your heart. There’s no need to doubt.

Are there any other questions? (No.)

Then I offer you all my deepest blessings and love.

May you all know how beloved you are. Find your own wholeness that allows the release of any idea of distortion in the body, in the mind, in the spirit. May you be deeply well and happy.

Please know how much I love you all.

I will release the body to Barbara…

And you know—one more thing—during the Remembering Wholeness session, if you’re feeling uncomfortable in any way, I’m available in a hundred different directions, ten thousand directions. Just ask, “Mother, I feel something dark around me or around the room. I don’t know what I need to do. Please help me.” And I’m there.

I love you.

Barbara: Thank you, Mother. Thank you, Aaron. Thank you all for giving your time tonight, for volunteering to support these things in these ways.

The classes are easier because there’s not much negative energy. The Open Aaron nights, where new people come in, and Remembering Wholeness, sometimes leave me wiped out for a day or two, or even longer. I would appreciate not feeling so wiped out! So, I just appreciate your help, because your high energy does help to release that which is negative.

I just was watching the news with Hal, and they’re building these big fences around the Capitol. Think of us as being the Capitol and you’re putting up an energetic fence of love, not a barbed-wire fence.

Thank you, everyone.
