Dear Friends and Chelas:

I welcome you to the fold. I bring with me today assorted news, thoughts, energies and ideas for you to entertain. It is important in the outlook of the times ahead to remain centered and to receive within your individual beings that which is appropriate and right for you. No matter what is said, at any point in time, whether by myself or others, whether it be common gossip or other materalizations of thought and word, you must be true to the inner meaning of the Divine Self.

Do not allow other’s interpretations to dissuade you from your own central meaning. I say this to now, because ideas, conversations, thoughts and communications will be rampant around the Earth, and in some, you may find the dismissal of the human spirit and in others, you may find a great deal to be considered. In any case, make sure you honor thyself.

That having been said, I would like to mention there will be a diverging perception as to the outcome of this year’s forecast. Many will interpret specific signs or energies that are potent to their own level of reality. There are others who will dismiss these particular signs and interpret something else. Words will be spoken though a number of channels who have an opportunity to disseminate our words to a greater audience. Whatever is being received through you, the channel, given to the audience, and taken in consciously, requires paying attention to that frequency which vibrates to the highest truth of one’s being. If you are embracing words that appear to have little meaning overall, I suggest you pay little attention, even if true, because you are not able to align with that message at a given point in time.

It is important to learn that your own interpretation and value here is significant, and each one of you has, in the times ahead, an opportunity to pay attention more clearly and closely to that which you are hearing or seeing or witnessing. You have recognized, surely, the enormity of the impact that has occurred in Asia. There were those who felt uneasy that day, uncertain as to what was wrong or perhaps, uncomfortable, and yet I can say that many of you, if you look back, you may recognize some discomfort which was existing in your own lives as well. Restlessness, irritability, pressure, dismissal of ideas through lack of attention span and many other things may have been a part of your own perception even though you dismissed this.

Dear friends and chelas, it is important now to pay attention to the many vicissitudes which are engendered in your being. Yes, you have much to contend with because the energies are shifting consistently. Yes, you have much to witness because the changes around you are great. And yes, you may hear many voices. Voices of your own inner being and those which may come forth to offer a thought or two along the way. I am one of those. And I am hopeful that what you hear today will offer greater consideration within yourselves for the forthcoming months and year ahead.

I would like to explain for a moment a bit about those of us who work with you. We have come forth from many realms and many dimensions and in fact, many aspects of yourselves, to participate in a much greater plan than most of you have yet surmised or perceived. The greater plan is to unfold within your being a supreme being of self able to overcome those qualities and creations dis- allowing a higher method of life on your planet. For many of you, there is an opportunity to create within your beings a higher love and presence while re- maining on this given plane and in many cases, that is a connection through us reminding you that such is possible.

At the same time, you are seeing the extremity of difficulty that many are undergoing now, and you wonder what role you now play in all of this. I can assure you that the call that is in your heart toward those who are missing and lost to those who are grieving and saddened to those who are frightened and shocked and all others in supporting new measures preparing for additional life beyond these moments will bring for you a greater opening and alignment in your heart, not only to them, but to All That Is.

There rarely has been a time on your planet that has engendered so much prayer, without division, without relating to one religion or one group or one spiritual- ized thought, but rather, a prayer of compassion which has come forth from the hearts of man. This unites the consciousness and allows for a greater perception to begin to unfold. It is as if a network begins to be spread around the Earth, linked by hearts in common.And whatever your differences, whatever is unimportant to one and important to another has little meaning with respect to the connection and linkage that is now coming forth.

Our work has been to transcend the many avenues which have been created on planet Earth through disagreement and disappointment and misinterpretation of ancient laws, and rather, to allow for a greater linkage of harmony in which the overall Laws of Oneness come to the foreground once again.

Please do not feel for a moment I am dismissing the importance of every life which has given or been given to this higher plan and purpose. Nor will this be the last situation which occurs, for more will be forthcoming in the times ahead. On some levels we can speak of ‘purification’ or ‘cleansing’ or change, but I would suggest to you that in the greater span and in the overall linkage that what you are witnessing is the unfoldment of love which will come forth on your planet to pervade throughout the time veils you presently are en- folded within.

We are assisting in a myriad of ways. We are utilizing our energy toward creating greater understanding and compassion and opening hearts where those who are unable to see or care much beyond themselves have suddenly seen a much greater plan. A much greater purpose. A new need, a new light. A new dawning and a new day.

You will also understand that within this comes a great deal of fear. Fear, not only generated by those who have undergone such turmoil, but fear by those who believe this could happen to them. This could be a part of your world where you are today or someone else’s world where they are presently living and reading this as I speak. So this level of fear is an underlayment, an under- garment, essentially, to the grander purpose of love and networking, which is the potential end goal. It is to this that I speak today. This particular under- garment because I wish for you to understand that by creating and holding onto such level of energy as fear, the difficulty of moving toward the greater goal of love becomes further and harder to reach.

Fear can and will pervade your world, but some have chosen to transcend this. Some have chosen to move into greater light and therein is where we work with you. Therein is where you have an opportunity to meet us, heart-to-heart, and to embrace the greater truth and significance of what this time is for you, individually. There is no one who asks to be connected in this manner who will be refused.

The level of responsibility and connection can vary greatly among you, but each of you has an opportunity to serve in a greater manner of love. So it is toward this measure that we, as a Brotherhood of Light, and as a gathering of souls, are committed toward exploring and expanding in the year ahead.

Many times I have spoken to you in the past of given energies that come forth throughout the year or perhaps, years ahead. Sometimes in detail and sometimes, not. In certain cases, it’s important to understand the dynamic of that year because you have a placement of yourself within it that becomes extremely important.

This year you will witness in your own lives again and again the opportunity to choose love or fear. Both networks are being created. Both are surrounding the world. Which one would you choose to be in?

I know that you may think, "Oh I am choosing love as where I would like to be and that is what I will work toward." But perhaps your individual world will be shaken like a tree and then you stand and remember your choice.

Pay attention to where you would like to be. You are witnessing this play out in Asia at the moment. You may see some aspect in your own world as well. Now I would like to have each of you ask within yourselves--not right here or right now--but in the following hours or days, how you may best serve and re- main compelled to love. By knowing this in advance, you will find, even if your own world is shaken, that you have already aligned to where you need to be. And if you have moved out of that momentarily, you will be given the assist- ance to move back into it right away because you are utilizing your lifelines, essentially, your connections to us, so that we can gear now whatever is needed to support you in the times ahead.

Many of you say, "I am not living in Asia. I don’t really see how this pertains to me." And it may never pertain to you, surely, what has occurred there. But your world is going to witness many changes. You will see, as I said, two levels: That which resides in fear and above it, that which resides in love. And in your compassion and in your open heart, take in that higher energy and refuse to live with that which is lesser. It does not serve you, and yet, if you believe it does, surely it will find you.

Upcoming in this year are going to be several other dynamic occurrences which will create more fear, more love, more trauma, more difficulty, and more earth- shaking. At the same time, there is a joining going on. There is a time ahead in which many of you will break through the fields of light, such as they are for you presently, and see beyond the veils and know many of those who have passed over, who are able to describe their experiences, their learnings and teachings, their desires and their hopes for you and the world. There is going to become greater communication and contact between, let us say, the two worlds. Some of you will hear somewhat differently than you have in the past. You may notice that within your own framework of seeing the world, things change, both visually and consciously.

Within the difficulties present comes a fluidity between worlds not presently known to most of you. A new dynamic is set up and openings begin to appear where none stood before. Sometimes you call these openings portals or door- ways, and perhaps even in some cases, you may think of them as a vortex. I will suggest to you that these are streams of consciousness that break through throughout your world and begin to alter the levels of reality here. It is as if you looked at the auric field of your earth and saw small holes every- where in which light and communication peered through or pierced through.

This time is coming into being and many who are leaving are making this possible. For those of you who have believed in what has been called, the ascension process, would this not dramatize an opportunity in which you are able to create a greater communication with those worlds beyond which indeed resonate to a frequency far different than that which is present on earth?

Parents may hear children who have passed on and the reverse can also be true. This is not only to occur in Asia, but to happen in other areas of your world. It is not necessarily the way that you view communication or a move- ment into a higher level of reality, but I assure you that it will occur.

As well in the year forthcoming there will be new perceptions brought forth by those of you who are doing specific work, particularly engaged in regular medi- tation. You will be given an opportunity to learn far more than you have in the past for these doorways are becoming opened further.

Sixteen years ago there was a transition which occurred on your planet that made possible a new type of service and awareness. You are, once again, in a year where another change has been effected and will be occurring throughout this year. This change is not only an energetic perception, but it is one in which the course and direction of planet Earth has shifted and moved into a greater realm of harmony. There has been a shift which as happened to the axis of your planet. It is small in terms of overall degrees possible, but never- theless, major in terms of where you have been throughout centuries and eons of time.

The shift will be creating a different perspective. A newer opening and also allowing, to some degree, more dramatic transitions to come forth. Knowing where you ‘fit’ in this shift is important. When you meditate, request your position, your compasspoint, now. What was five weeks ago may no longer be the same path and course today, tomorrow and next week.

Please remember to look at this because your alignment has been affected, not only that of the planet but you, individually as well. You may find you are choosing to include something else in your life and you may find you are wishing to alter something that has been there all along and has been perfectly fine. You may find suddenly you are called to move or to create a new job or under- stand something that was not possible for you much earlier.

Now again, let me say that the doorways and openings will create some levels of difficulty, because as you would imagine, if you had a cup full of water and you tipped it one or two degrees, some water would spill out and change the content of what was present. As your earth is moved slightly from its main center axis to a slight off-point, it will affect the dynamics and the plates within Earth. There will be some eruptions as a result. Not only in this year but a number of years ahead.

Not all unfolding is to be perceived with any level of blame or anger or fear, but rather, a concrete consciousness within your own being toward all around you, allowing for movement to occur. It is very similar to taking that full cup and seeing water spill out of it. It is not affixing to that cup with water coming out some measure of complaint, but rather acceptance. "This is occurring and do I stand under that water coming out, do I find some way to capture it elsewhere and utilize it in some manner, or do I witness that which is occurring with compassion on some level or another and wait for that which is highest and best for me to understand within it?"

Many of you will come to new answers within your own hearts in this time ahead. Many of you will reverse some of the ideas and ways you approached your life. Some of you will find new measures of support and some of you will find that which you had slipping away. Whatever your situation, know that within your heart your levels of compassion can be maximized now. Can be effected now. Can be joined in a much greater network than has previously existed on planet Earth. And it is a network of opportunity for greater light, expansion, frequency and dimensional movement.

I would like to add, you are not alone. You are not abandoned. You are not without hope and you are not without great light. Believing otherwise leaves you feeling ‘less than’, and does not maximize what you are here to do. Encompassing the greater aspect of self, the greatness of self, at this time, you are able to poached and bring forth much that is new and within the higher realms to be affixed to earth at this time.

All of you know there have been many transgressions which have occurred on your planet. Lack of honor, one might call it, for All That Is. And yet, with an open heart would you not be able to hold this to the greatest and highest degree, to enable movement, to begin to occur in that direction. There is no one here, who has not undergone, at one point or another, some difficulty or perceived difficulty, that has lifted you into a direction of more understand- ing, and now that opportunity will prevail on earth.

At the same time this is occurring, many people are beginning to awaken. Awaken to the fact that much which has been said for eons of time, is coming to fruition. And yet, within that, many misperceptions still exist. The world is to continue onward. The ending many perceive or believe is presently coming forth is to regard those lesser qualities of greed, of rule, of oppression, of tyranny, slavery, inquisition, and let me say, lack of compassion, to move further away from that which is being held on planet Earth to embrace a greater quality of life and freedom within it in these forthcoming years ahead.

The "End Times" relate very much to the end of intolerance or degrees of dis- missal toward nature, toward humankind, toward God and toward those of us who work with you in so many ways around the Earth as well as in conjunction with other aspects of the Universe. For all is not here, solely implanted on earth, but vastly moved about -- a Universe that is part of Universes and all need to interconnect and intercede with each other. To have an opportunity now to embrace these greater levels of consciousness is what occurs in 2005.

Great shakeup happens for this to begin to manifest for each who has lost their life, for each being, for each mammal, for each animal, for each fish, whether a land or water consciousness, I suggest you offer a Thank You -- an acknowledgement of what they have undergone to make possible new times ahead. Of course, it may not be understood on earth in this way and it may take many years to be able to observe the great transition now happening.

You are also recognizing there is a great deal of discussion about disease forthcoming and rampant as a result of what has happened. I would suggest to you that the potential lies in the concept and minds of man. Yes, there is a reality that this level of disease comes forth. Many diseases, in fact. But again, I would caution you to remain in a loving perception and not put your heart into fear for it is this fear that will spread disease more quickly than anything else. At the same point in time, you may utilize your meditations toward altering this situation. You have all perceived within your own minds specific practices and use them toward one direction or another. It is no different now.

Creating harmony on your planet will take time, but it is also created by those here who choose to hold that energy. Bring it forth and see it and know within your own hearts there are answers here contained within.

You will need to pay attention and prepare at certain times for what’s ahead and to recognize there will be difficulties beyond this one and to know that you have chosen, on some level, to be present here and to withstand those difficulties maintaining yet the light.

I am engaged with each one of you in this room. And I am affirmed in my conviction you are capable of withstanding the greater pressures to adopt lesser measures into your being. Anyone who chooses to connect and to align with me specifically, will receive that measure of comfort and support if so requested.

I am supporting you all in the blessing and sending light and energy, almost as if it were created in a bubble, surrounding all of you at this moment. Close your eyes and breathe this energy in. Move it into your hearts and know me and it in this regard. I am stabilizing parts of you which may remain inactive and only come to the surface in moments of difficulty or terror.

Within your hearts, I speak to your Higher Selves more clearly so you hear these messages and those inner calls of your being with no impediments anymore.

The frequency and vibration you hold as a group is being accelerated. Keep breathing in, feel this womb-like presence around you. In each breath there is light. In each moment, there is movement. And in times of change, this move- ment is considerable and yet, you are held. You are held, and you are held. Remain close to my heart, friends and chelas, for I will be there in each moment with you.

I am, Maitreya
Lord of the Light
