Some of Julie’s early work in channel from 1986. This is the first of a series in which Micciah discusses the nuclear accident at Chernobyl.
• The challenge of staying “connected to the life force and to the qualities of being that are eternal... Acknowledge that in the midst of turmoil you are willing to affirm life.” View Section
• Choice at the level of planetary consciousness to protect the earth and to protect life. Connection between nuclear situation in Russia, AIDS, African famine and terrorism. View Section
• Feelings of guilt for “not doing enough” on the personal level to heal world events. Guilt results from the personality self’s belief that it is responsible for everything. It prevents one from doing anything. You can offer “all your ordinary actions...for peace...with love.” View Section
• Aligning with the people in Libya and the Soviet Union to support them. You can work in consciousness and on a social level. View Section

   Micciah:  We greet you all, dear friends.

   Julie:  We do greet you, indeed.  This is Micciah Channel, and I’m Julie Winter.  Micciah is an energy entity who works with me while I’m in trance,  and while I’m in the trance state I have access to a point of view that seems to come from a non-physical realm.  This series of programs is drawn primarily from videotapes taken during my regular classes.  We want to expand our circle, and include your energy and interest in our work.

   ----------

   Jon: Hi. I’m Jon Child, producer of MICCIAH CHANNEL. We have a little mini-series going here on Chernobyl in Russia. The sessions that we’re pulling from were shot around the time of the ongoing event.

   Micciah: We greet you all. It is far more difficult to stay connected to the life force and to the qualities of being that are eternal, without beginning and without end, in such times of stress to the personality, to the feelings. It is like being at a crisis point in an illness that seems as if it will devastate the body. At that point there is a choice to either consciously align with the eternal — not with denial, but with acknowledgment that in the midst of turmoil you are willing to affirm life — or to move into despair. And during times such as this time, it is not just a question for an individual family as it might be, for instance, if there were great tragedy in one’s own family. Then the family would gather as a group consciousness, and you could observe people wrestling with whether to stay with the feeling of connection to life and to trust or whether to go into bitterness and collapse. And there is no blame.
   Sometimes it is just a neighborhood or the portion of a geographical area, with a flood or some natural disaster, so-called. Then the people in the community or the area get together and wrestle as does a family with the choice, the choice, whether to be with life or to be in bitterness. And sometimes it is with a country, or with two countries, warring with each other. What is the choice? The choice to stay with life, to stay with peace. Or to give up.
   So now it is the planetary family, yes? Because you, in the magnificence of consciousness, have created this question, this profound question, that is embedded in being human. You have created it for the planetary family. Everyone has created it. Everyone together. And what we all wish you to know is that you, individually and as a group, and as a planetary family, have access to great love, to health. It is possible for you to ask for help from the entities not embodied in the physical world, from the guardians, from our realm, from other realms aligned or associated with our realms. And you will get help. You personally. Does not mean you will feel no despair. We are not telling you to be happy in some foolish way, or in the way of denial. You ask for help and you will get help.
   So you are not really left alone and isolated to cope with all of this. There are sources to which you are naturally connected that are available. You need to be in the practice of asking. So you come together sometimes and we all talk together. And there are beings here who are not physical, besides myself. There is an exchange. In your own meditations, in your own actions, in being guided in the choices in your own life, you can ask in a very personal sense to be supported, to feel that you are filled with the delight of life that is greater than any disaster.
   But now, in the realm of what is right in front of you, right in front of your nose, you have many questions. So, let us have your questions, please.

   Samuel: Micciah, with the recent events that have happened, mainly in Russia, is there a possibility of a breakthrough? Is it connected to AIDS, the famine in Africa, and terrorism? And what is one’s personal possibility of contribution?

   Micciah: Yes. Yes, they are all connected. This is what we are saying. Just as in personal life, individual life, in the life of Marion, or Rosalie, or Michael, or Samuel, there are choices to be made. So now you are experiencing choice at the level of planetary consciousness. It is no more even the illusion of separateness. Separateness is always an illusion. The most profound and dramatic choices are pressing you. It is easy to affirm peace on a lovely day, when you are comfortable, when everything is going well, yes? To affirm the love of spirit, or the joyfulness of God, or whatever you want to call it, in the midst of such horror is an enormous challenge. And there were warnings all along the way. You, you...
   We are going to talk about this in two ways. The obvious... The more obvious and the not so obvious. We want to make a point about there not being any blame. If you can comprehend that there is participation even at this level, but no blame, you will have comprehended something magnificent. So, there have been signals all along the way, yes?, about the danger to the earth and to people, to animals, to the trees, to the water. The danger. You have been unwilling as a human family in this present dream of this present time of this planet, you have not so far been willing to pay attention to the communication of the earth. At one level, you have lived in a way that has crushed the earth. You have taken from the body of the earth what you wished to have without consideration for that body. Even with the evidences that nuclear power was enormously dangerous, you have continued and continued.
   Well, you are free. In this dream of this planet, you are free to experiment. The task of this realm, or the delight of this realm, is your choosing. So terror, terror, terrorizing the earth, and the planet’s body, is not so different from terrorizing between countries, is not so different from an apparently terrifying proliferation of symptoms through the degeneration of the immune system in a disease like AIDS. And at any moment you can choose peace! At any moment. We don’t mean that you, your personality, can make it be peaceful, can make it change. But you can align yourself with peace, with life, and you can work in the world to make that statement clear. Everything you do, everything you choose, everything you are is about opening to spirit. And what seems — now this is the second part — what seems so solid and real, could not have anything realer than this, yes?, what seems so definite is part of the dream, or the illusion of this realm, part of the challenge and also part of the solution. Because in the dream, everything is being held with absolute love. So it takes stretching, it takes much breath, or much quiet, to encompass a paradox of this vastness, that even though you look in front of you and it is a mess, it is heartbreaking, even so, you will not be abandoned. Even so, all of this dream of solidity, of desecration that emerges is held with love. And this earth, this physical world, is a realm of experiencing choice. And the ante — at least in physical terms —- has gone up very far, yes? This is a big-stakes poker game. This is very... Is this frustrating to listen to?
   Please continue your questions.

   Michael: In view of these recent events, especially military confrontation between the United States and Libya and the nuclear accident in Russia, it’s easy I believe for many of us to feel guilty for not standing up and having ourselves heard and voicing our opinions in protests. Because it’s hard enough to work every day and pay the bills. Can you offer us some advice on how to best deal with some of these guilt feelings?

   Micciah: Yes. This is a very good question. And it is a question intimately connected with your group understanding that you create reality. So, guilt arises when the whole self focuses on the personality, focuses through the personality, and holds the personality self responsible for the ills around it. So you, there is not... You are not creating with your personality self. You are creating with your great self, or your total self. And there is always the dilemma, there is always again the choice to participate or to collapse or to deny. Guilt is really a way of preventing yourself from doing anything. Sometimes it appears that it’s a spur, you know, that you can pinch yourself into taking action. But it is toxic. It is toxic to the emotional level. So you can kiss guilt goodbye. It doesn’t do you any good, doesn’t do anybody else any good, you can let it go. Now, don’t feel guilty if you feel guilty. But really, guilt, in all situations, is a kind of blaming and freezing, and it shuts down the energies.
   What would you like to... How would you like to participate? On the inner levels, in your inner work, you can meditate for peace and for healing, do it together, you can do it alone. You can chew your food and wash your hands and dress yourself and be in your business life, your work world, with the inner attitude that all that you do is offered for peace. Do you see? So all the ordinary actions, of paying the bills and working and taking the bus, everything is given over to love, everything is offered with love. It takes consciousness. It takes, what — remembering. Remembering. That is inner work, and we tell you it is very powerful.
   On the personality level, it is up to you to choose. If you wish to work socially and politically, what can you do? Well, you can turn the lights off and... You see, the personality gets stuck in, “Oh that’s not enough, oh that’s not enough, oh that’s not enough,” because it wishes that it were mighty enough to change everything on earth just by willing it to be so! And so then it feels constantly a sense of failure. You can choose how you would like to participate. What actions you want to take. What marches you want to organize. There is much to be done on this level. It is perfectly possible for you all, particularly in America, to insist that nuclear plants be shut down, that the resources that you generate through your hard work, through your daily work, that those monetary resources and that intelligence be used to find alternate solutions for electricity. Alternate possibilities abound.
   So you can work on the inner levels and on the outer levels, understanding that your limitations are not a punishment but grace. You would not want to be responsible for all of it, would you? Don’t misunderstand, misinterpret the notion that you are responsible for reality. Don’t confuse it with the somewhat grandiose if blind idea of the personality self that it is, somehow, in its badness and stupidity, making all these things happen. It is a great, intricate and blessed web. In terms of this specific accident — which was not an accident, it was not an accident, there aren’t any accidents — you will see if you can wake yourselves up in the physical world.
   Please go on.

   Joanna: As we are aware of the physical and emotional suffering of the people in Libya and the people around the nuclear plant in the Soviet Union, what can we do to help them, to support them, to be aligned with them in some constructive way?

   Micciah: Yes. Again, Joanna, you can align with them in consciousness. At the end of the meeting today you can go through, take some time, imagine yourselves as part of them — because you are, because nothing is separate, only looks separate — to offer them love on the inner planes so that they too know in whatever way they perceive it personally that help is always available. In the worst moments, in the most tormented times, help is always available. And you can also work on the social level. Their country, the country Russia, the Ukraine, is going to need food. They are going to need things that the United States can produce but may not want to give. So we think that there will be factions that organize to support the movement of nourishment into that part of the world. Because we will tell you their food is going to be contaminated. It is already contaminated. The part of the great human body that is asleep to the consequences of its actions is trying to wake itself up. At the point where it is suggested that mothers abort children because of the dangers of radioactivity, it is surely time to wake up. And you can. To go into hopelessness is dangerous. Yes, to look at the vastness of all of this, [and say,] “I cannot do anything.” You can. You can. You can. You have not even experimented much with asking for assistance from the guardians who are the vast energies that oversee the planet.
