Year 2011 Day 264 September 21: A Conversation with Benjamin

A Conversation with Benjamin

Day 264 Date:  Wednesday September 21, 2011 

Beginning Comments:

            I am now about a hundred miles or so from Omaha Nebraska after about eight hours on the road.

            Needless to say, I am quite tired, too tired to run energy at this moment.

            Before I skip today, however, I will see how I feel later on, or early tomorrow morning before I start the leg of my trip which should get me into the Twin Cities.

            As I do have internet, I hate to waste the opportunity.

            I was just about ready to go to bed when I received an image of my ancient place; in response to strong inner guidance (the kind with only knowingness, not words), I am rereading all the Seth books, and therefore am interested in whether this energy shift will have anything to do with what I am reading

Energy Shift:

"Ashunayetya!

            Benjamin, in human form, is sitting, cross-legged, on one of the circular stone benches,

            As I appear, he rises and dusts himself off. 

            Today, I notice he looks much more human than usual.

            He is not wearing a robe; his head is bald, he has a beaky nose, and is tall and thin.  

            “I looked like this in a lifetime where we knew each other and were very close friends,” Benjamin explains.  “We were both monks of some order, and our love for each other was probably as deep and complex as that of a married couple.   This does not mean that we had any kind of sexual connection – the connection was purely emotional.”

            “You died in some senseless accident, and I was distraught – or something to that effect.  I am getting images of a well or a river, of maybe a drowning?”  I ask.

            “I feel into a well whose water table connected to a nearby river.  My body was not found for some time.  Many thought that I had decided to leave without notice, but you and a few others argued that I was not the kind to do such a thing.”

            “So, does your appearance have anything to do with the Seth material I am reading?” 

            “Only indirectly,” Benjamin grins.

            “Right now, we are working with your emotional base, which you have repressed somewhat; images of strong attachments, such as a past lifetime, or episodes of your more recent past, may be cropping up for no good reason.”

            “I also seem to be recalling jokes which I have forgotten and surface at the oddest moments.  Is this part of the process?”

            Your humor and your emotions are connected, so old jokes may be one way of recalling the emotion.  You will probably not recall a joke that was not part of some kind of emotional experience, even if you cannot recall the experience.”

            Benjamin then morphs back into his more mysterious cobalt blue robed and hooded human form.

            “This is enough for tonight.  As you are about to go to bed for the evening, ask for dreams or memories of other emotional experiences. 

            They are leading you to a place which you have forgotten, and which is important that you remember.”

            Benjamin bows.  I thank him and he vanishes.

Ashunayetya!

                     Dori"

Ending Comments:  

            It’s been sometime since I have had this much of a conversation with Benjamin, and I enjoyed seeing him as a human being.

            Also, this kind of dialogue is rare.

            I found it highly enjoyable and hope there will be more in the future.
