Question: Was Sigmund Freud a fallen being or inspired by one? And was Adler inspired by the ascended masters? They both focused on psychology and lived in the same place and time, but seem to have taken different paths. Freud seems to give more attention to the past and that this past defines us and the way we live. In addition, this condition can drive people to the victim mentality, where they are not responsible for who they are and are victims of past events. Also, he sees the main source of motivation, energy, coming from the lower desires of food, shelter, sex, or the id. And Adler is more focused on the present and believes that we can choose who we want to be regardless of our past, that we are 100% responsible for who we are. And our main desire is to grow and compensate for our inferiority complex. What is your view on this?

Well, yes, Sigmund Freud was a fallen being, although certainly not in the same category as the dictators you have seen throughout history and see today. But he was very much tied into certain fallen beings in the mental realm and bringing forth ideas that really are more of a hindrance to psychological growth than a help. And unfortunately, this has been used to give the entire field of psychology a slant that takes it into a blind alley instead of helping people. There are, of course, many psychologists today who are critical of Freud and who are attempting to take the profession of psychology beyond Freud, and many of these are working with the ascended masters. Adler was also inspired by the ascended masters, but this does not mean that all of his ideas came from the ascended masters. He lived in a time where the consciousness was more dense, where there was a certain cultural overlay that he could not free himself from. And so, it is sort of a mixed bag what he brought forth, some ideas from the ascended masters, some from the mental realm.
I would advise you to focus more on more modern psychologists who have developed their theories in more recent decades, therefore are somewhat free of the overlay, the cultural overlay that Freud and Adler were affected by. And many of these modern psychologists are also more able to receive ideas from the ascended masters today, ideas that are more suited for today’s world. I do not want to mention particular ones here, but if you can see the difference between Freud and Adler, you can certainly see the same, that there are some modern psychologists that are more tied into these constructive ideas. Naturally, the ascended masters have always said, you are not a victim of your past, you are affected by your past, but you can overcome your past and be free to choose who you want to be.
