Re-embodying on earth after qualifying for ascension

Question: Some time ago, the ascended masters were saying that some of us may want to postpone our ascension after this lifetime in order to re-embody for the purpose of assisting Saint Germain to bring in the golden age. For many of us, after our experiences in this lifetime, I would not imagine it to be a very popular option. The masters have not said anything much about this in recent times, and the focus seems to be back again on us making our ascension. Can the masters comment some more about this option of continuing to re-embody on planet earth after we have reached the point that we have qualified for our ascension?

Answer from the Ascended Master Saint Germain through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, actually the option is more popular than you might think, and we have mentioned this several times. You see, when you say that you do not think it is a popular option based on what we have experienced in this lifetime, it is because you still have certain subconscious selves you have not overcome that make you feel like this has been an unpleasant lifetime or difficult lifetime. But what is it that experiences your present lifetime this way? Is it the Conscious You or a subconscious self? Actually it is the self. You may be identified with that self, you are experiencing your life through that, through the coloring, the perception filter of that self. But in order to qualify for your ascension, you will have to dissolve and let that self die. And then your lifetime will no longer seem difficult, and therefore, it will not be a deterrent for having another lifetime.

What our focus is on is simple. You cannot postpone your ascension until you have qualified for it. And we would much rather have you qualify for your ascension in this lifetime and come into your next lifetime at that level than not qualifying and coming into your next lifetime at a lower level. Because when you come in having qualified for your ascension, you can of course get better service in terms of helping to manifest the golden age.

You see, whenever we give a teaching, there is always the possibility that some people, some students can take it too literally. And it is very difficult to give a complex teaching without simplifying it so we do not cover all scenarios. We have, for example, often talked about how you are on a natural planet, you have reached a high level of growth there, and you now decide you want to come to earth to do something here. And we have portrayed it that because you have not fully grasped free will, you have a somewhat distorted image of what you want to do here and how you will be received here and what will happen here. And it is true that you have to overcome that coloring, because otherwise you cannot qualify for your ascension, you cannot leave the earth if there is something that is unfinished.

But you see, it is one thing to have a personal goal that was not based on the highest understanding and that goal has not been fulfilled, so therefore, you feel you cannot leave. It is another to have a goal to support the ascended masters in raising up earth that is a genuine desire that is not colored. You see here what I am trying to explain. Most of us, when we came to earth as avatars, we had the genuine desire to help raise the earth, but it was colored by our personal way of looking at life and looking at ourselves, our desire to, for example, be the “prince on a white horse.” And what we need to do, what we are seeking to help you do, is overcome that coloring so you can reconnect to your genuine desire to help the ascended masters raise the earth, but also be in that neutral space where you can say: “Have I changed the way I look at that desire? Do I actually now want to ascend?” Because naturally you can also help us by ascending. It pulls up on the collective consciousness.

It is a matter of you resolving that coloring that you had when you came here, returning to a neutral space or going into a neutral space, where you can then decide, “Do I want to ascend? Do I want to stay and take another embodiment or perhaps several?” But you cannot make that decision until you are qualified for your ascension, and you cannot qualify for your ascension until you have overcome that particular view you had, which was also a sense of self that brought you to earth.

Guru Ma’s life after ascension

Question: Guru Ma has been ascended for about a decade now. Can she tell us something about that time? What does she do in the ascended realm? Has she been able to reconnect successfully with many of her former students from the Summit Lighthouse?

Answer from the Ascended Master Guru Ma through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, it has been a very intense period for myself and Lanello. It is in our Divine plans, at the ascended level we also have Divine plans, to take over the retreat at Lake Titicaca from the Goddess Meru, who will then move on and take the position of Helios and Vesta in the sun.

But this is quite an intense preparation to hold that spiritual office for both Lanello and myself, so basically we have been busy focusing on that and qualifying for that change.

Have I been able to connect to many of the students from the Summit Lighthouse? Yes, many people had some connection before I ascended, but there are of course certain issues that block this connection. First of all, they do not accept that I have officially ascended, even though they assume that I have. Many people do not accept my book, which was given primarily to help my former students connect to me as an ascended being, an ascended master. But still many people have attained a connection, even if they have not read my book, even if they do not accept me as an ascended master officially, they still have attained a connection or maintained a connection they had. And this is of course a great joy to me.

You see, as ascended masters, we leave behind what was there before. This is something that many people find it very difficult to accept about ascended masters.

I do not have any intention that people should connect to me as an ascended master, or that they should accept that I have spoken through this messenger. I do not have an intent that they should accept my book. I am happy to connect not only with my former students, but with anyone who can connect to me as an ascended master, however they see me. I am happy to give them whatever I can give them, and I do not have the intention that people should accept, as I said, that I am speaking through this messenger now, or that I had a certain status in the Summit Lighthouse.

As an ascended master, you just seek to connect to the people who are open and to give them whatever you can pass on to them. Many students find this difficult to accept, and that is why they often cannot connect to me, because they have a mental image in their minds of how I was as a messenger for the Summit Lighthouse, and what images they created based on that. And they are seeking to connect to that image instead of the being that I am now, which is far beyond how I was when I was in embodiment, and of course far beyond the images that people formed of me.

Again, when you have an image, you are not neutral. But in order to connect to an ascended master, you need to be as neutral as possible. I would, of course, like to connect to all of my students, but many of them cannot go into that neutral state of mind, and therefore, they either do not connect, or they connect to a collective entity that some of the students in the Summit Lighthouse had created of how they think I am as an ascended master. And they feel they get validation that this is who I really am, or how I really am as an ascended master. But it is just an image, a being, an entity they have created based on their mental image. And of course, when you connect to such a collective entity, it will validate the image that it is created from. And if you do not have discernment, you will feel, well, this is how the ascended master Guru Ma is. But this is not who I am.

And if you want to connect to me, strive to be neutral. I am willing to connect to all students of the Summit Lighthouse, past or present or future. But I will not validate a mental image you have that actually keeps you trapped in a blind alley. As always, as an ascended master, my goal is to help you transcend yourself and any mental image it is you have of me, of other ascended masters, or of yourself. How can you transcend yourself if you are not willing to transcend your self-image? And if you are not willing to transcend your image of me, it is difficult to transcend your self-image as my student, based on how I was in embodiment.

Retirement planning for spiritual people

Question: Seeking a balanced perspective on financial retirement planning for spiritual people. Many spiritual people seem to believe that wealth follows practice, leading many to neglect retirement planning. As I approach my 50s in Korea, I feel the need to invest heavily in my future, even if it means living a tighter life now. My question is this: “Is preparing for old age in this way a manifestation of fear-based living, or is it a necessary and responsible part of a grounded spiritual life?” I would appreciate your advice on how to maintain a constructive and spiritual mindset while navigating these practical financial demands.

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, it is a very common attitude among some spiritual people that you set aside practical considerations, having this idea that God will take care of us, the masters will take care of us, if we strive to raise our consciousness or give service to the ascended masters, they will somehow manifest a miracle in our lives. This, however, is not something that we have ever stated or encouraged.

We always encourage people to be practical: “Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s and unto God that which is God’s.” If you live in a country where there is no public retirement, or if you feel that you want a higher standard than what public retirement allows you to have, you need to take whatever practical measures you can take, given your situation. We are encouraging our students to be practical about things, this of course will seem contradictory to this messenger who has not had a career and does not have a retirement plan. There are of course always exceptions, but in general, take the practical measures you can take and think ahead.

10,000 Christed beings and the golden age

Question: How will Divine light descend onto earth to help bring in the golden age? Will the 10,000 Christed beings have a role in that process aside from making the calls?

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, we have explained many times that everything on earth is subject to free will, so we from the ascended level can release light as we have determined to do with this 12 year cycle, but it needs to stream through the auras and chakras of people in embodiment. Obviously the 10,000 beings who have a potential to attain Christhood also have the potential to become open doors for this light, so it streams through them in greater measure. In other words, the closer you are to Christhood, the less subconscious selves you have and therefore, there are less blockages in your four lower bodies to the light flowing through you.

Obviously if all those 10,000 people attain full Christhood, we can release much more light through them than when they have not attained Christhood, and the same of course goes for the millions of people who can attain some degree of Christhood. The closer you are to Christhood, the more you are the open door for the light to stream through, and of course the more light streams through, the more opportunity people have to see what is real and unreal and choose between light and darkness.

Calling for the judgment of Christ upon people I know

Question: Is it legitimate to call the judgment for someone I interact with personally? In which cases? Or is it better to call the judgment and light into the situation? What if the judgment does not come entirely from unconditional love but also from the separate self? I feel that if I were to call for judgment upon someone I know personally, I should also call for judgment upon myself. Can I call judgment upon myself? Does it accelerate my life, make things happen more quickly, and cause my karma to come back to me sooner? What is the difference between calling the light by reading decrees and calling for judgment?

Answer from the Ascended Master Jesus through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, you need to understand here that calling for the judgment is calling for Christ judgment. That is why in the decrees and the invocations you will always see “In accordance with the vision of Christ”, you are calling for the Christ judgment, not a human judgment. In order to call forth the judgment of someone you need to be as neutral as possible so that you do not color the decrees with some human feeling of, for example, anger against the person or wanting to see the person punished as a result of the judgment. As we have explained, calling forth Christ’s judgment upon someone does not mean that their karma is suddenly going to descend and some terrible thing is going to happen to them or they are going to be punished somehow.

It means that the ascended masters will be authorized to approach that person, not in a physical way but in the person’s higher bodies, and present them with an opportunity to either accept or reject Christ, often in relation to a specific aspect of their psychology so it is the person’s choice to accept or reject Christ that then becomes the judgment. When you call forth the judgment on someone you need to be as neutral as possible. And if you experience that you have strong feelings about the person, then you use our tools and teachings to expose the subconscious selves that cause you to have those strong feelings and resolve them. It really is not constructive to call forth the judgment upon yourself if you are open to looking at your psychology. And quite frankly, if you are not open to your psychology, you probably would not even have the thought of calling the judgment upon yourself. Instead of calling forth the judgment, work on your psychology. Use the teachings and tools we have given.

In terms of calling forth the judgment, whether you should do it in a specific situation, well you can if you see that a person is trapped in some difficult situation such as an addiction, you can call forth the judgment that they will see the need to change their life and overcome that addiction or other scenarios. But again you want to be as neutral as possible. The judgment does not violate people’s free will, it is their choices. In some cases calling forth the judgment can cause the person to receive a greater portion of karma if they reject the opportunity to come up higher. It can in some cases, when you are talking about people who are truly trapped in negative patterns, cause them to go out of embodiment, to be taken out of embodiment, but these will not be people that you interact with in most situations.

Life expectancy and karma

Question: I am wondering if the masters could expound a bit more on life expectancy and karma.

From one angle, if someone has reached the 96th level at a relatively young age, say 30, does that person then have potentially five decades or more in embodiment to express Christhood and resolve their remaining psychology on up to the ascension until the body expires? A different angle, what might it mean for a person who has a prominent figure famous for advocating for wildlife who was then killed by an elemental wildlife by happenstance? Is this more about them playing with fire, so to speak, one too many times? What is the karmic implications for them in that situation?

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, life expectancy is a complicated matter that is very individual. You cannot necessarily say that a person who reaches the 96th level at the age of 30 is going to live for another five decades. That can be a matter of the person’s individual life plan, how long they want to stay in embodiment before they move on. But there is, of course, a potential that the younger you attain Christhood, the more time you have in embodiment to express it.

Now in terms of people’s karma, again, this is a highly individual matter that applies to each person. There can, in the scenario you describe, of course, be an unresolved psychology in a person who advocates for wildlife based on an unrealistic view of human beings, their place in the evolutionary chain and your relationship to wildlife, and therefore, being killed by wildlife could be an outplaying of the person’s karma as an opportunity to rethink the way they look at animals and human beings’ relationship to animals. There are some people who have, in fact, many people who have gotten themselves into this state where they see animals as human beings in animal bodies and think they have the same kind of self-awareness, feelings, thoughts as human beings do, and they obviously do not as we have explained in Kazakhstan in our talks about elemental life.

Speaking out with a neutral mind

Question: What advice do the masters have for speaking out? My higher level of consciousness makes earth inhabitants uncomfortable. Christians feel threatened and do not listen when I talk about the kingdom of heaven existing within us and Jesus being an example instead of an idol.

Answer from the Ascended Master Jesus Christ through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, that is a very common experience. And many spiritual people have, of course, experienced this. But there are a couple of things you can consider here. First of all, it is very common among ascended master students and for that matter other spiritual students or even religious people that you become overly eager to convince other people. You go out with this intent to convince them. And you become very insistent and you often want to give them as much truth as at all possible. You think that if you give them something and it does not convince them, you have to give them even more, then maybe that will convince them. But what you need to do is step back and consider my teaching about a cup of cold water in Christ’s name. There are people who are not ready for spiritual teaching, or at least not a higher spiritual teaching. You need to be willing to intuitively tune in and give each person what they are ready for.

It is not a matter of converting them to believe in ascended masters or come into a particular teaching organization. It is a matter of realizing that each person is at a certain level of their personal path. They might be quite far below you in terms of the 144 levels of consciousness. You cannot make the mistake of giving them something from your level of consciousness and expecting that they will be able to relate to it. You need to tune into what is their level of consciousness and give them something that they can relate to at their level, which brings them one step up. You cannot expect somebody to jump ten or twenty or fifty steps up all at once.

In order to avoid this reaction, you need to look at these subconscious selves that we have talked about relating to, first of all, your intent for coming to earth, your wanting to help other people, your wanting to help them overcome suffering, then feeling disappointed when they will not listen to you and now going into various reactions of how you can do this. As we have said, you are basically trying to change your state of mind so you feel it was worth it to come to earth by helping other people.

When you resolve those selves, you can go into a state of mind where you are neutral, you are just expressing yourself. Perhaps you sometimes give people more than they are ready for, but you do not have an intent of changing their minds or making them accept what you are saying. You are just sharing who you are and what you believe.

How to prevent my energy from getting stolen?

Question: As I have resolved psychology and raised my level of consciousness, earth inhabitants subconsciously want to steal my energy when I interact with them. How can I prevent my energy from getting stolen? I want to speak out as the masters have encouraged us to do.

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, you need to use the teachings to discover what subconscious selves that you have that makes you think you have to give your energy to other people. And when you work on this, you will find that you have certain subconscious selves that might even color the way you look at the need to speak out. You might have, for example, as many avatars have, as we have talked about many times, you have an intent for coming to earth, a wanting to help people. And therefore, you might very well have separate selves that are created here on earth based on the difficult environment you are in and the difficulty in getting people to even listen to you. You have created these selves that say you have to do whatever it takes to help people, including giving them your energy.

What I am pointing out to you is that in many cases it is not that people are stealing your energy in an aggressive or deliberate manner. It is that they are there simply receiving what is flowing out of your energy field because you have these subconscious selves that makes you feel that you should be giving your energy to other people in order to be able to help them so that you can get the feeling that you are helping them. And you need to overcome these selves so that you are speaking out but not from a desire to give yourself the experience that you are being useful, that you are helping people, that you are doing something that has some epic importance. This ties in with Jesus’ dictation where he talks about overcoming the self-focused self. We have given quite a number of teachings on this. You can, of course, also give decrees for protection of your energy field. But in the long run, you need to resolve the selves because people cannot actually steal your energy without your subconscious consent. You have a subconscious self that, in a sense, gives them consent to take your energy or even willingly gives it to them.

How do we know the ascended masters?

Question: How is it that I, as a Conscious You or lifestream, know and experience the Presence and awareness of ascended masters, conscious beings in the higher realm, even without the teachings, but others do not sense these beings, or perhaps not know that is what they sense? Is it what is out-pictured in theirs and mine four lower bodies? Is it because I come into this lifetime with knowledge from previous embodiments? How did Jesus and Mother Mary and Saint Germain come to know of these beings in the ascended realm and not just as this amorphous omnipresent thing or singular Presence out there?Why do we know what we know about the ascended masters?

Answer from the Ascended Master Jesus Christ through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, you do not know ascended masters, you experience ascended masters. There is always the old question, which came first, the chicken and the egg? Which came first, knowledge of ascended masters or experience of ascended masters? And this can vary. There are people who have not had the concept in their outer minds of ascended masters, but who have gradually raised their consciousness, often over several lifetimes, to where they begin to experience that there is something beyond their own outer minds, there is something beyond the material realm, there is some kind of Presence of being. They may not name it, they just experience it. There are many people in the world today who are at this level where they experience something beyond the material realm, some Presence, some being, but they do not have the concept of ascended masters. There are other people who have come across an outer teaching that talks about ascended masters, but who have not had the inner experience.

It is, of course, possible in today’s age where we give public teachings that can be found on the internet or in books, that you can come across this knowledge of ascended masters without having had the experience yet. If you keep working with the teachings and the tools we have given you will eventually have the experience but there can, of course, as you describe, also be those who have attained a connection to the ascended masters in past lifetimes. And therefore, in this lifetime you have that inner knowing which is beyond intellectual outer knowing, that is based on just an intuitive experience of our beings and the experience is so real that it is not a matter of debate, it is not a matter of belief, it is not a matter of doubting, you just know this is reality. This is because in past lifetimes you have established, first of all, the willingness to look beyond your own state of mind instead of always looking for validation, but also that direct connection with us. It is not really for most ascended master students, it is not really that you came to know about ascended masters in this lifetime. It is that you actually became conscious of what you knew and experienced from past lifetimes.

This is not the case for all people, of course, but certainly for most. And why is this? Well, it is because, as we have talked about many times, that you have the immersion experience on earth, in the reality simulator of earth, but after some time you have had enough of immersion and you go into the awakening phase and you go through various stages, and part of the awakening process is to connect to us in the spiritual realm. And you will see that there are many spiritual people on earth who have not attained that connection yet and therefore, even though they can be spiritual and have some insights and understanding, they will often deny that there is anything in the spiritual realm, such as you, for example, have people who are into non-dual teachings, who will say that there is only maya and the undifferentiated Brahman. There is nothing in between. And this is because they are still colored, overshadowed by their own minds and have not really made a genuine connection to something outside their own minds, which in a general sense is the Christ consciousness, but of course as you begin to gain more experiences of the Christ consciousness, you will realize that the Christ consciousness is expressed through individual beings, namely us.

Again, you do not have to call us ascended masters, there are people who have a genuine connection to us, who just do not have that terminology of ascended masters, or even attach names to us. But you who are open to us as we present ourselves now in this age, you are just simply remembering what you already came to know or you are taking the experience that you had from past lives and you are just accepting the outer teachings and the names we are giving, because the inner experience you carry with you validates those teachings, and it is not a problem to call us the names we are officially using. There is no contradiction between the names we are using and your experience.

How to create a new sense of identity?

Question: Given we could make a decision at the identity level in an immaculate manner, I assume all subsequent thoughts and feelings that were formed to support our former identity would receive no more energy from our spiritual side and would eventually collapse and cease to exist. How long would this take? In other words, is it recommended by you to actively call for the purification of those formerly misaligned energies or are those energies automatically re-qualified as we then express our future thoughts, feelings, and actions congruent with our new sense of identity?

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, in order to make a decision to create a new sense of identity, you need to use our teachings and tools to work with the subconscious selves to resolve some of these selves that make up your current sense of self.

Because otherwise, what you will be doing is you will be creating a new sense of self, or rather a new subconscious self, that will be battling with your previous sense of self. You cannot assume that these energies will be automatically dissolved. You make the calls with ours decrees and invocations to dissolve the energies but you also have to use the tools to expose the self, see the decision behind it and consciously let it go. Then you have dissolved the former self, and then you can form a new one.

Echoing dictations

Question: Whenever I listen to any dictation, I take it in as if I am echoing it. I repeat it as I listen in my own mind, as if making a duplicate. Is this cause for concern?

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

No, it is not. There are various ways to take in a dictation. And if this is one way that comes to you spontaneously, then do it or rather let it unfold. You are not doing it deliberately, you are just letting it unfold. For that matter, we have said that you can also repeat a dictation out loud. You can read it from a written dictation, or you can read it along with the recording so that you are verbalizing, you are speaking the words along with the master. We are not really encouraging you to memorize dictations because, as we have said many times, it is not so much a matter of you understanding it intellectually as you allowing the words to create a shift where you suddenly see something that you did not see before.

Really, it is important if you want to maximize the opportunities for such a shift to be as neutral as possible when you are listening to a dictation. Just strive to be in a neutral state of mind where you allow the dictation to take you beyond your current state of mind.

How does memory work?

Question: How does memory work and what part does it play? In Summit, we make calls of transmuting such as cause and effect, record and memory. How do we delete memories that hold us back?

Answer from Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, the masters have actually talked about this. Master More has given a couple of dictations (dictation 1, dictation 2) that are in a book called Fulfilling Your Highest Spiritual Potential. Okay, also Making Peace with Being on Earth. You can find those in those books. Basically, what the masters are saying is that what they are always talking about in this dispensation is resolving these subconscious selves. And many of our memories are stored in these subconscious selves. It is the selves that hold on to the memories. Of course, you can make calls for this to be consumed by the violet flame. But in the end, you have to make a decision to let go of the memory.

You just have to come to a point, kind of what Jesus was talking about in his dictation, where you realize that holding on to this memory just is not important to you because the memory and the situation is not important to you compared to coming closer to oneness with Christ.

How can Ukraine express gratitude to the world?

Question: Most of the world now strongly support Ukraine and the Ukrainians. What earthly practical things could the citizens of Ukraine offer in return as a token of gratitude to the residents of various countries for their help and hospitality?

Answer from the Ascended Master Saint Germain through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, the first thing you could do is to avoid to in any way become arrogant, to feel that you are doing something for the world, you are fighting Europe’s fight against Russia, any such attitudes that are somewhat there in the Ukrainian collective consciousness. You should not take the help of other countries for granted, but be grateful for it.

It would, of course, also be helpful if you make, or continue to make the efforts to stamp out corruption or at least reduce it to a manageable level, to work on cooperating with other countries and avoid making these kinds of offensive decisions. For example, Zelensky’s decision to name a certain regiment after these people who were involved with the conflict with Polish citizens in Ukraine that has caused the Polish president to withdraw the order, which, of course, was not a mature thing to do. But nevertheless, it was not an optimal decision of Zelensky either, regardless of the pressures coming from within. Those kind of things you can strive to avoid.

You can, of course, in the longer run, you will help other countries modernize their military to prepare for modern warfare which can then help these countries build a better deterrent against further Russian military operations, so to speak.

Serving Ukraine without returning to violence

Question: I appeal to the Ascended Master Jesus. Brother, I ask you to tell me how I cannot confuse your teaching about non-violence and turning the other cheek. Earlier as a child, I defended myself against bullying and other injustices through physical and intellectual strength. Then having become accustomed to it, I began to abuse it. At the next shift, I renounced all of this but I have still not overcome anger, rage. I am a citizen of Ukraine and not wishing to take up arms, I left Ukraine with my family in 2022. Periodically I get a feeling that I am one of those who refuse their karmic responsibility to protect Ukraine. But in parallel there are thoughts that these are my separate selves trying to return me to the war. We try to help Ukrainians to the best of our ability, but I do not support the armed forces of Ukraine either through actions or money. Help me see, is it my responsibility to help the armed forces of Ukraine and defend the country or are these fallen beings through feelings of guilt and duty tempting me to return to violence? Help me see what practical things I could do to help Ukraine and Ukrainians while continuing to grow spiritually.

Answer from the Ascended Master Jesus Christ through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Do you understand that it is not within the law of free will that I tell you from without what you should or should not do in a situation like this? It is up to you to use our teachings and tools, including tools about separate selves, to sense from within what is right for you.

I will say, however, that for people who are spiritual students, it is in general not part of your Divine plan to take part in armed conflict. This is not a hard and fast rule, but a general rule, because as you work towards Christhood, it becomes, of course, more and more difficult to engage in such conflicts. You can, of course, take other measures to help your country and to help armed forces without bearing arms and this is up to you to decide.

What we can say in general is that when you feel guilt, this comes from a separate self or projections from dark forces. You can use our teachings and tools to look at the separate selves, expose them, let them go.

When you work on the separate selves, you can come to a point where you are neutral about this which you obviously are not right now. And when you are neutral, it is not that you make a decision with your outer mind, it just becomes obvious to you what you can do and what is part of your Divine plan. Right now, as is expressed in your question, you are feeling that you are being forced by pressures from without and within. You are trying to force yourself to see what you can do. But what we are aiming to accomplish with our students is that you use the tools about the separate selves to come to that point where you are neutral. And therefore, you are not even really deciding with the outer mind, it just becomes obvious to you: Yes, this is what I am doing.

The role of the Irish people in manifesting the golden age

Many Irish people are very kind and open, but at the same time they are often naive and resistant to change.

I ask you to describe the role of the Republic of Ireland and the Irish people as a whole in the establishment of Saint Germain’s Golden Age.

Answer from the Ascended Master Saint Germain through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, it is too large of a topic to answer in this way. We have previously given some dictations in Ireland and about Ireland and the Irish people. But what you can say is that what I have talked about at this conference is that the role of nation states will shift. Therefore, you can say that there are many of the people in these smaller nations where they will not have a role as Irish people, but as people. In other words, you need to let go of the focus on the Irish national identity and espouse more universal values. Christhood, as we have said, is a universal value. You are not an Irish Christian or Scottish Christian. You are a Christed being first and everything else comes after that. Again, different nations can have different roles because they can have a specific group dynamic. And you can say that many Irish people have a certain innocence, which, for example, can be seen in contrast with many English people who are very suspicious and somewhat devious.

You could say that the Irish people can have a role in showing the English people there is an alternative to their scheming ways that they have displayed throughout history. But whether that will really have an impact on the English people is an entirely different matter. But what you can say is that the Irish can come to realize that perhaps they are sometimes naive, but it is better to be naive than to be manipulative. And you can, of course, learn to overcome your naivety by developing Christ’s discernment. Therefore, become harmless as doves, being innocent, but wise as serpents. You might remember that the myth about St. Patrick is that he cast the serpents out of Ireland.

Overcoming the blocks to abundance and self-acceptance

Question: Despite being a newbie to the ascended masters dispensations, I have grown a fledgling connection to some ascended masters, enough to help me stop personalizing how people treat me. However, I continue to be tripped up by two psychological blocks that limit my progress on the path.

The first is having a distorted view about money.

I am overwhelmed about making decisions about changing my housing situation because I will incur additional cost. Despite having sufficient savings, I excuse my paralysis since I was not able to manage returning to work after having a nervous breakdown. Beneath the trauma-related reasons to fear not having enough money, I wonder if this indecision is an excuse to avoid changing my circumstances and risk pursuing my aspiration to write about my experience with mental illness.

The second obstacle is how I view my physical appearance.

My hair began falling as a teenager from stress from toxic family dynamics, which increases family ridicule about my lack of femininity, which was devastating. I can intellectually appreciate the psychosomatic causes of hair loss after years of psychotherapy, but I become emotionally flooded when I look at my hair. The despair I feel makes socializing an arduous task, limiting my social circle, thereby adding to feelings of isolation from not working and from being single. Can a Master offer any advice about how to shift my view about money and my appearance?

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, we have given many teachings about subconscious selves, so I recommend that you study these teachings, especially the book Healing Your Spiritual Traumas.

The Messenger has also given many YouTube videos on similar topics. What you need to recognize is that at the bottom of these two issues is one or actually several subconscious selves that are based on specific beliefs that you adopted in past lives in traumatic situations. You therefore, need to use the tools and teachings we have given to come to see the selves and let go of the belief that created the self. Again, we have described this process extensively.

In terms of the money situation, you also need to recognize that many spiritual people have a difficult relationship with money, because for thousands of years there has been an ideal that spiritual people are not supposed to have money, or money is the root of all evil and all of these things. This is also a separate self that makes you conflicted about having money, and therefore, you are subconsciously pushing it away from you and feeling you should not have money, and therefore, you should not spend money on something that would benefit yourself and change your situation. Again, these are beliefs you can come to see and expose and let go of.

In terms of your appearance, again, there are subconscious selves, often created over many lifetimes based on the culture, that always values a certain standard for beauty and therefore, puts down all who do not live up to that standard. But again, you can come to see this self, let go of it, and you can come to realize that it is not your looks that determine your attractiveness, but your attitude, your demeanor, your confidence in yourself, your personality. When you work on that, then you can let go of this belief that you can only attract a partner by living up to the standard of beauty in society. You can look at many women who do not live up to that standard, who still have attracted a partner, many men for that matter the same. Therefore, you can gradually let go of this belief that it is your looks that determine whether you can find a partner or not.

What is the subconscious?

Question: What is the subconscious and how does the ego differ from the subconscious ego?

Answer from Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

They have given many teachings on this. I also have some YouTube videos where I talk about this. I am just going to give a very short summary here. In the broadest sense, the subconscious is anything below the level of conscious awareness. And that, of course, can shift. Sometimes you can be aware of something that used to be subconscious, but also things that are so deep that for most people, they remain subconscious. The subconscious is generally also the emotional, the mental and the identity level of the mind. As the masters have explained, they are the purely physical level at the lowest vibration, then the emotional, the mental identity, and then the spiritual beyond it.

How does the ego differ from the subconscious ego? It is not really a precise question because the ego is, in most definitions of it, subconscious. In traditional psychology, you can see the ego as the personality or the sense of self. But in most spiritual philosophies, the ego is in the subconscious mind and you generally do not see it.

You can, of course, learn to see it. The masters have said that the ego is kind of like that sense of self as a separate being. It forms sort of a container, and then you have all of these subconscious or separate selves that the masters are talking about that are inside the container of the ego.

The value of that teaching is that you can come to see these selves more easily than the ego, the overall ego. It is more easy to see a specific self that has a specific belief, and therefore, you can overcome that. You become more and more free, and it also lessens the pull that the ego has on you.

To whom is the term ‘Lord’ used?

Question: To whom is the term ‘Lord’ used?

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, you will notice that we rarely use it. It is a term that has traditionally been used to acknowledge a being who is in a spiritual hierarchy above you. It can be used, Lord Maitreya, Lord Lanto, to acknowledge that these ascended masters hold a certain position in hierarchy that is higher than yours. But we are rarely using it other than as part of these names. We are not really using it as a title anymore. This is partly because it has also been perverted so that you have the term ‘Lord’ used in a human hierarchy. And this is, of course, not something we want to associate ourselves with because the whole idea, you might say, of ascended masters is that we are beyond all of these human hierarchies, human authorities, human institutions that have been created.

The Christ consciousness is beyond anything created from the consciousness of antichrist, the consciousness of separation and duality.

Addiction to coffee

Questions: I have always liked coffee very much and I especially tended to drink it frequently when I needed to concentrate and work. However, I have a deviated nasal septum, a condition in which the wall inside the nose is bent and causes nasal blockage, as well as allergic rhinitis and a small cerebral aneurysm. When I drink coffee, my stomach becomes upset and my rhinitis begins. When the rhinitis worsens, it leads to severe headaches.

Because of this, I have tried many times to quit coffee, but I have failed repeatedly. I think there may be a self in me that is influenced by the demon of addiction.

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, yes, there is always a self that makes you vulnerable to the entities, the beasts that are behind any addiction. My question immediately would be, could you drink decaffeinated coffee without having the effect? Then you could have somewhat of the taste of coffee that you apparently enjoy and maybe avoid the health effects. If that is not realistic, then you simply need to decide: Do you want to quit coffee and avoid the health problems or do you want to live with these problems for the rest of your life? How important is coffee for you? And then, if you decide that you want to overcome this craving for coffee, you can use the tools and teachings we have given on how to expose the subconscious selves, expose the beliefs behind them, so you can overcome the addiction to coffee without really having to force yourself.

But in the end, of course, you also need to make a decision: Do you want to stop drinking coffee or do not you? I cannot make that decision for you. I have no intention of doing it either, even if I could.

How are elementals created, and by whom?

Question: How are elementals created and by who?

Answer from Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, I do not sense they are going to answer this because I can just refer you to the dictations from Kazakhstan where they talked a lot about this. And there is much more teaching that they can give. They gave it from different perspectives at different levels. There was really quite profound teaching given in Kazakhstan.

The future of America’s servants and public service

Question: As someone training to be a social worker, a single mother who has accrued student loan debt in service of a calling to serve others, I find myself wondering about the broader arc of America’s future. My question is for Saint Germain. In his vision for the next cycle of America’s democracy and its role in service to the all, does he foresee structural reforms that would ease the financial burden placed on those who choose lives of public service?

Is there a future where the path of service is not also a path of financial sacrifice? And for those of us already carrying that weight, is there guidance on how to hold it with grace while trusting in what is coming?

Answer from the Ascended Master Saint Germain through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, certainly you can see that there are other modern democracies who have found a different way to deal with this so that students do not have to accrue as much debt in order to pursue a higher education as they do in the United States. There are countries where education is free and people only have to take loans to pay their living expenses or they have to have jobs to do so. But certainly, I could envision a future where it would be said this would probably not happen in the United States first, but it would be said that if you commit yourself to public service, we will, of course, pay for your education so you can fulfill that role. You might then have to accept a slightly lower salary that you could make in the private industry, but if you do not have the student loan to pay back, there would not be that much difference.

This would be a wise move and it will become a necessary move in many of the modern democracies as the population is aging and there is more need of public servants who can help these older people with their various needs. This is certainly a possibility.

In terms of those who have already accrued debt: well, you need to, of course, be practical about this and take whatever measures you can take to pay back the debt or to seek whatever relief might become available in the future. Obviously, you could say that if you look at the dictation of Godfre about criminal enterprises exploiting the population, you can say that the rising cost of education plus the rising costs of interest on loans and student loans is a form of exploitation of people who are pursuing a higher education. You can also say the rising property prices are exploitation of people who cannot afford to buy a house when they have student loans to pay back. These are also things that will be addressed as we move closer to the golden age.

But this, of course, does not help you right now, I fully realize, and that is why you have to take whatever measures are practical for you in your current situation.

Canada as the 51st U.S state

Question: It appears that the apathetic majority of Canadians would rather have China’s influence than America’s influence that we have enjoyed for the last 250 years. Would it help bring in Saint Germain’s Golden Age if Canada or any part of Canada became the 51st state?

Answer from the Ascended Master Saint Germain through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 American Webinar.

Well, I have sort of answered the question in my previous dictations, and I certainly do not envision that Canada will become the 51st state. It is an idea conjured up in a mind that is out of touch with reality, first of all because it is not going to happen. The Canadians do not want to submit and be part of the United States, just as they do not want to be part of China. But also because Canada is so large that it is, what should we say, completely unrealistic to imagine that this huge country could become one state in America. But it is also not my vision for the Golden Age. As I have said, I envision more the formation of regions, and certainly there could be part of Canada, and in the long run would become part of a region in the United States.

Certainly, some of the Northeastern United States could form a region with some of the Southeastern Canadian states. British Columbia, Vancouver is so close to Seattle and Washington that a region could be formed there, others in the Midwestern states, and so forth. This could happen in the long term, just as there could be expansions on the southern border of the United States, or rather the formation of regions there with Mexico or parts of Mexico. These are possibilities, but obviously I do not look to Canada to be forcefully embedded into or become part of the United States. Certainly not another state. As I said, states could be replaced by regions, but then Canada would not become the 51st state.

Daily calls for protection

Question: I have noticed that if I do not give a daily invocation for protection, I begin to feel afraid to go outside where the sense of something negative could happen to my physical body. How can one move beyond this state and avoid falling into such a psychological trap? Is it correct to understand that this invocation protects for approximately 24 hours from the time it is given? Or does it have a cumulative effect over time?

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 Kazakhstan Conference.

Well, it is correct to understand that an invocation or decree for protection works for a certain time. I do not want to give you an exact hour because that means it depends on how you give the invocation, how much there is a flow through your heart, or whether you do it mechanically. But it does give a certain protection. It will also accumulate over time in the sense that as you gain more and more momentum or experience with decrees and invocations, they will carry over for a longer time.

However, there is a factor that changes this picture, and it is that the purpose of giving you spiritual protection is to give you a reprieve for the forces that are attacking you psychologically. This pause gives you an opportunity to work on the subconscious selves you have that make you vulnerable to these forces. If you do not take that opportunity, then the Masters will gradually decrease the acceleration of your decrees so that you do not have as much protection. And that is why you feel the forces projecting at you that you do not normally feel.

You see, these projections that you experience, and they are just projections, they are an opportunity for you to look at your psychology and say: “Why am I affected by this? Why do I even pay attention to this?” I can assure you that all people on earth are exposed to projections from lower forces. But some people do not pay attention to them. In some cases because they are so dense, their consciousness is so dense, they do not even notice them. But other people are just not concerned about it. They are not afraid that something is going to happen if they go outside. You need to look at why you have this subconscious self that believes this? And then use our tools and teachings to work on dissolving it.

The psychosomatic causes of breast-related illnesses

Question: Can difficulties in communication with one’s spouse and the absence of sexual intimacy in marriage contribute to the development of psychosomatic breast conditions? For example, if a husband refuses intimacy and does not show initiative, explaining he is feeling unwell, or are psychosomatic causes of breast-related illnesses more often associated with other factors, such as a woman’s tendency toward overprotection or excessive caretaking towards her husband? Are there more common or significant psychosomatic factors that may influence breast health, particularly in cases where medical examinations do not reveal clear physiological causes?

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 Kazakhstan Conference.

This is a very individual dynamic. It depends very much on how you look at sexual intimacy, the purpose of it, how you look at your role as a woman in fulfilling this. But it is clear that if you feel neglected or rejected as a woman, it can influence your sexual organs in the sense that you are projecting something upon them that can filter down through the identity, mental and emotional level and either lead to a direct disease or even a feeling of unease or various sensations of pain.

What you can do here is examine your entire role to sexuality, to being a woman, and especially the shame that has been associated with the sexual act for millennia. Depending on your culture, your religion, how is this looked at? And have you been programmed by a religion, for example, to associate shame with your sexuality? Or have you been programmed with other cultural conditions that you should be attractive as a woman and if your husband is not attracted to you, there must be something wrong with you. I am just mentioning a few examples. There are many such beliefs, of course, in various cultures.

What I would recommend is that when you do not have a physiological cause, you look for the psychological aspects, the subconscious selves you have related to your body, to sexuality, to your relationship with the opposite sex and how that is played out in your culture. There are, of course, other factors, including physical factors that can cause various diseases. But what you can immediately start doing something about is the psychological aspect of this by simply taking our tools about becoming aware of a subconscious self and examining what beliefs are behind it. What expectations, what view do you have? What is the view in your approach to sexuality that is the reward for sex or that is the punishment for not having it?

More than one focus in my Divine plan?

Question: Dear masters, could you please clarify whether it is possible that my Divine plan includes developing in several professional directions simultaneously. For quite some time I have found it difficult to choose just one direction. I have many interests and my attention tends to become scattered. In some areas I have more experience and they appear more profitable. In others I am still a beginner. Yet those fields resonate more deeply with me. This also affects my ability to earn a sufficient income. I would be grateful for clarification as I am still unable to decide internally whether to focus on one area or whether to combine my talents and realize them simultaneously in a professional sphere.

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 Kazakhstan Conference.

Well, you look at your question and you ask yourself: “Why did I start becoming interested in more than one field?” Most people will focus on one field.

Why did you feel the need to study more than one field? Because that was your intuition. Now you are looking with the outer mind on the practical aspects of this and evaluating: “Is it profitable, does it scatter me, does it do this and that?” But that is an evaluation.

What you need to focus on here is your intuition. What does your intuition say? And you need to recognize that this is very individual. I am not here saying that anything should apply to all people. There are clearly some people where it would be the best way to fulfill their Divine plan to focus on one area. But there are also some people who need to focus on more than one because it gives them different perspectives that eventually leads you to see what is the main focus of your Divine plan. For some people it is right to focus, for others it is right to spread themselves out. You can, of course, spread yourself out too much. That is what you need to evaluate. But first of all, tune into your intuition.

The war in Iran

Question: Could the masters please share their perspective on the recent war involving Iran, Israel and the United States and on the spiritual significance and possible future direction of this crisis?

Answer from the Ascended Master Saint Germain through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 Kazakhstan Conference.

Well, we have commented on it previously, but I will say here this is of course not something I would have ever supported. It is an ego based decision by people in Israel and the Trump administration who were partly overshadowed by dark forces and fallen beings. Now you can of course always look at and say: “Why did the regime in Iran attract this situation to them?” Well, because they are also ego based and overshadowed by dark forces and fallen beings. What you are really seeing here is sort of a clash between two groups of fallen beings that are seeking to assert some dominance in the world. There are certain dark forces that are working through both the current Israeli government and the current American government who are seeking to establish a, we might call it a new world order where the rule based mutual respect approach that has been developed since the second world war is replaced by a might is right approach where those who feel they are the strongest do whatever they want to do.

You can see this might is right approach in Israel’s actions in Gaza, you can see it in the United States approach to Iran, Venezuela and basically the rest of the world and even internal opponents of the Trump regime. This is what is going on behind the scenes and Iran just seemed like an easy target for these forces for being taken over and cementing the invincibility of the American military and the Trump administration’s approach to foreign policy. This of course does not mean that I in any way approve of the regime in Iran who have been suppressing, torturing, and killing their own people for decades. Naturally this regime needs to go but I look for solutions that involve a raising of awareness not that one force-based regime is removed by another. What will give growth to the Iranian people is of course that they internally change their consciousness so that this regime simply cannot stay in place. But as I have already said there are too many people in Iran who cling to this traditional lifestyle and the Muslim world view that they have been indoctrinated with for so long and that they are afraid to question.

You cannot improve anything without questioning the status quo. It is simply impossible. What the fallen beings have attempted to do with all dictatorial regimes seen through history is to get people into a situation where they are trapped by a certain belief system. But this is reinforced by the threat of violence, torture and death and therefore, they do not dare to question the belief system. It is a matter of when people will work up that willingness to question Islam itself or at least the version of Islam that exists in Iran. They also need to question of course traditional lifestyle, traditional values and realize that they are in a fixed situation and they will not get out of it until they start questioning their view of the situation. One intermediate step could be a realization that by questioning the Iranian regime’s use of Islam, their interpretation of Islam, their use of it to justify violence against their own people, by questioning this they are not necessarily questioning the pure teachings of the Koran.

They need to see a difference between Allah, Muhammad, the Koran and the Ayatollahs of Iran. They need to see that this is not the same thing and therefore, they can question the regime without questioning Islam. In the longer term they need to of course question Islam itself but as an intermediate step this would be the beginning of breaking the stalemate. In terms of the United States and the Israeli regimes, well they have put themselves and their countries in a School of Hard Knocks so they need to keep running that course until the knocks become so hard that a critical mass of people say this is enough. Far the supporters of both Netanyahu and Trump feel emboldened by the aggression, by the use of force. They think it validates their view of their leaders but that of course will eventually change when the knocks become hard enough and as it is now there is little realistic possibility that either of them will change course so the knocks can only become harder.

The horizontal flow of energy

Question: Is the chakra system that we are supposed to use for the horizontal flow identical to the chakra system that assists us through the vertical flow? I am asking this because in my experience this vertical flow exists in me already, flowing in perfect balance and thus produces the feeling of being a Presence in itself, almost independent of me but assisting me.

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 Kazakhstan Conference.

Well there is only one chakra system, so it is the same thing you will use. This chakra system is really designed for the vertical flow because it is designed to receive energy from the spiritual realm and transmit it into the physical. And what happens to many people of course is that there is also a reverse flow so that energy flows from the physical world into people’s chakras or even from the emotional mental realm into people’s chakras and burdens them. And basically when you work on the horizontal flow you are learning to overcome that so that you are only allowing energy to flow from above to below.

You see it is one thing to exercise your co-creative efforts and evaluate what comes back to you, but it is another thing to take in energy that comes back to you from other people. You do not need to take in energy to re-evaluate and refine what you are projecting out.

Necessary protection when working with addiction

Question: We have a specific method for overcoming nicotine and alcohol addictions, based on the teachings given by the masters during the previous dispensation, and we have successfully used this method in our work with people. Now we have both the desire and the opportunity to share this with others, with those who, of course, are ready to listen and truly hear. Is additional protection necessary to work with this level of collective consciousness on a larger scale, or will it be sufficient to connect to the masters and give invocations to Archangel Michael, Astrea and Shiva?

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 Kazakhstan Conference.

You do not need additional protection other than giving the decrees and invocations to the masters. You might need to give some more decrees if you feel that you are more burdened by energy. You just need to use your intuition and sense whether you are being too burdened after having worked with people, and then you give the calls or you take a break from the work so you do not overextend yourself.

Children and free will

Question: Beloved ascended masters, I ask you to break the vicious cycle in my mind. If I understand free will correctly, parenthood seems to violate it. This happens both in everyday situations and in psychological dynamics, especially with young children when they want something and I forbid them from experiencing it, acting for my own beliefs and level of consciousness. Or does free will function differently with small children? As I understand it, this violation creates karma. At the same time, I see parenthood as the balancing of past life karma, a process of loving a child and accelerating those energies that are previously misused in my relationships with these very beings. Please clarify my understanding.

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 Kazakhstan Conference.

Imagine that you create a wonderful playroom or nursery for a young child. You take all of the toys you can think of and put them into the room. Then you put the child in there and leave it alone in the room with no human interaction. Now there is no human being, meaning you as a parent, to violate the child’s free will and tell it it cannot play with this toy or that toy. Would you be doing a service to your child by doing this? You can see that you obviously would not because the child would not have any human interaction. It would feel lonely, but first of all, it would not develop its sense of self.

What is it that enables a young child to develop its sense of self? It is that it interacts with other people, first of all the parents, but also siblings. You have to shift your focus and realize that as the parent, you have a right, you even have an obligation, a job, to present the child with a situation that gives the child something to react to, but also sets boundaries for the child. Because you are teaching the child how to basically function in life, which really means functioning with other people. Your child has to somehow learn that its own will must be balanced with the will of other people.

And it learns that by experiencing you and how you are and how you set boundaries for the child.

To break this vicious cycle, as you say, you need to rethink your view of free will. Of course you can violate a child, but that is not what we are talking about. We are talking about you having a right to be yourself in your own home. And you do not have to be perfect to be a parent. You just have to look at the parent-child relationship as an opportunity for you to see subconscious selves in your mind, to work on these. And that is essentially also how you balance karma. You are not making karma by setting boundaries for a young child. You would be making karma if you did not do so. And there are many parents, especially in the more developed countries, who have gotten into this state of mind where they think they should not set boundaries for the children, they should be allowed to do whatever they want. And they are actually making karma for doing this, or rather not doing this.

It is true, of course, that you can have karma with children from past lives. But the way to overcome that karma is simply to look at your own psychology, your reactionary patterns, and work on those subconscious selves with the tools we have given you.

You can even look at the dynamic you describe here. You are afraid of violating the free will of a young child. Why? What is it in your mind, what is the belief you have that you should not do this, or that this would create karma? Does it relate to something in a past life? Perhaps that you were too controlling towards someone else, or that you were being controlled, so you made a decision that is a typical dualistic decision where you say: “Well, that was too much control, so to correct that I have to go to the opposite extreme and have no control.” That is how many people swing back and forth. But that is, of course, still on the dualistic scale. You need to step back from that and find the middle way, the balanced approach. What you are basically also teaching your child is a balanced approach to life, to dealing with other people, to balancing its own will and the will of others. The child needs to learn to balance its will with yours, and it can only do that if you assert your will.

Chakras and memory

Question: Are our chakras involved in the process when we recall something?

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2026 Kazakhstan Conference.

No, not generally.
