🔹 Raising Vibration: Learn about the earth’s rising vibration and the higher awareness in new generations. Paul discusses the necessary transformations and the collapse of fear-based structures, offering a hopeful perspective on the changes we’re witnessing.

🔹 Manifestation through True Knowing: Move beyond the typical New Age focus on material gain. Paul’s guides emphasize manifesting through our vibrational state, contributing to the collective reality and aligning with a higher purpose.

Dive into this fascinating episode and gain insights into the deeper aspects of personal growth, non-judgment, and the energetic claims of truth: “I know who I am, I know what I am, I know how I serve,” and “Behold, I make all things new.” These teachings encourage us to re-perceive reality from a higher state of consciousness, transforming difficulties into opportunities for profound growth.

Join us in exploring the mystical side of life with Paul Selig’s wisdom and his captivating life journey.

Transcript

Paul Selig:
People think that manifestation is about getting stuff. You know? How do I get what I want? How do I manifest this? And what I think people misunderstand is that everything that we see and the guides would say high, low, and in between, everything that we see and experience, we’re in vibrational accord to or with, which means we’re in energetic coherence with it, which means it’s still something that we’re contributing to at a level of consciousness.

Announcer: Welcome to Exploring the Mystical Side of Life with your host, Linda Lang.

Linda Lang:
Hi. This is Linda Lang from www.ThoughtChange.com. We are Exploring the Mystical Side of Life once again this week. If you enjoy our conversations, remember to subscribe, share with a friend. Today we have Paul Selig back as our guest Paul is the channel for the Guides and an acclaimed author. Welcome Paul.

Paul Selig:
Thanks for having me.

Linda Lang:
So I have your new book in my hot little hands, A World Made New. This is book 3 of your Manifestation Trilogy, and I’ve underlined a number of things from this book. One I’d like to touch on, first of all, is “Behold, I make all things new.” That word all! The spiritual circles I’ve traveled, it seems to me like people want to raise the vibration of the things they don’t like and keep the things that they do like.

Paul Selig:
Yeah. Yeah.

Linda Lang:
So I wonder if you could talk a little bit about that.

Paul Selig:
Well, the Guides have said it’s not about fixing things or improving things. It’s about reseeing and reknowing all things as of Source. They talk about the One Note Sung. Sometimes they call it the Word. Sometimes they call it God or Source. But they say everything is of that because nothing can be outside of it. We can have an experience of separation, but it’s an illusion that we perpetuate. So the claim: “Behold, I make all things new” is not a claim that is made at the level of personality because the personality is gonna wanna fix and get the marriage to work the way it should and get the better house and, you know, end this problem in the world and the way we want it to end.

You know? It’s all terribly subjective, and it’s a lot about manipulation control. That’s not what this is at all. It’s about moving to a level of vibration and tone. They use the word tone a lot, where you move into an equivalency with things at the level of source. So you’re no longer operating from the denial of the divine, which they say is the biggest problem we face. And the only real problem we face is deciding God cannot be or will not be or should not be all those ways that we have been entrained to. They say, you know, we’ve bought into separation for so long that we’ve created a world that operates in separation, and they’re moving us to a level of awareness where we can, or the divine self within us, can re-see, re-perceive. And they say by doing so, lift.

So the the re-perceiving is actually an alchemical act of of of renewal, of calling forth that which has been put in darkness back to the light.

Linda Lang:
Have they ever disclosed how we actually got here into this level of separation?

Paul Selig:
A bit. You know? But mostly, I get that we chose it. You know? We didn’t think we were gonna get what we wanted, so we’ve had to find ways to do it. You know? Pretty much like if there isn’t enough in my garden, I’m gonna have to build a wall up and make sure the neighbors don’t take the few potatoes I’ve got growing there. You know? And if that doesn’t work and if they try to get over the fence, I’ll I’ll, you know, build a bigger one and then throw things across it to make sure they never encroach. And this belief in lack and not enough, they say, is about deciding that Source is not source. Source is… doesn’t, doesn’t exist. If you know the source of your supply, you can be in a in a position to receive.

If you don’t assume your needs are gonna be met, you’re gonna try to meet them in any way you can. And that’s what we do. That’s as much as I’ve gotten, but they’re not big on history with me. It’s not one of those teachings.

Linda Lang:
I wondered about that as I read this book because it does talk about leaving the history behind and, and raising to a higher level. And I wondered what that does for history.

Paul Selig:
The book that preceded A World Made New was called, The Book of Innocence. And they talked about the divine self or the monad or the god within as the aspect of self that does not hold the template of history. The Guides have said that the personality structure knows itself entirely through historical data, what it’s been taught and how it’s experienced the world. And, you know, we’ve all been party to this. But I never think that this is about eradicating the idea of history. It is about sort of seeing it or what we’ve created, I suspect, through a different lens so that we’re not just perpetuating the old, which is what we know how to do. I mean, the Guides have said, you know, we’ve been in war for so long that we expect war, and so we always have one. And until we move to a level of consciousness where war is not anything that we could or would choose because it doesn’t exist at that level of consciousness, it’s not a possibility we would entertain, we are gonna have the old.

That doesn’t mean we have not had wars. It doesn’t mean that war is an obligation to how we live in a world. The idea of conquering and pillaging and, you know, all these things that we’ve been we’ve been around with us since the guys have said since somebody picked up the first rock and threw it at somebody else. We’ve been doing this. So, you know, I perceive it as a hopeful teaching, but I don’t think it’s about forgetting. I think it’s about reknowing, realizing what was true perhaps at the cost of what was not. And you know this, but, you know, history is generally written by the victors of war. We have a very slanted view, I think, in every way about who we are and who others are as a result of that, and bias and, you know, cultural edicts that we perpetuate often, I think, without even knowing that we’re doing so.

And I think a lot of what’s been going on in the last few years is, you know, as the Guides have said, everything that was buried needs to be seen, needs to be revealed so that it can be seen in new and made new. You know, you can’t really resee something when you’re hiding it, you know, in the back of the closet or, you know, or wherever you wanna pretend that it didn’t happen. So it’s a useful time, but it’s a challenging time.

Linda Lang:
I think I asked you that because I had been asked once in an interview if as we raise consciousness and we go to 5D is the language that a lot of spiritual people use or New Age spiritual people use. If all of the old ways of healing are just not effective or should be thrown out, and I didn’t think that to be true. I thought that it would be better to use the things from the past that still work and lift them.

Paul Selig:
I mean, I agree with you there. I don’t get that.

Linda Lang:
It’s like another way of prejudice.

Paul Selig:
Yeah. I would, I would, I would think that was so. And and the Guides I work with don’t talk about 5D. That’s not… they’re… they’re not… I don’t… I’m not a good New Ager. I don’t read this stuff, and I just don’t know. You know, I hear occasionally people say, is this what your Guides mean by such and such? And I’ll often say, well, it’s not language that they’ve used, so I don’t I don’t know. Perhaps. Sounds similar.

You know, they talk about something called the Upper Room, and they say that’s Christ consciousness or a higher level of of awareness. They say it’s the highest we can attain while maintaining form. But they say a chair is still a chair in the Upper Room, but how you perceive the chair and perhaps how you value the chair is very different. How you know the chair because you know the chair as what it’s made from. And that’s not just, you know, wood or steel. It’s source. It’s everything is everything is of the one song, the one note song. And so I suspect what that means is that some of the systemic ways that we’ve been taught to value or decide about things may fall away.

Who is valuable and why? What we should aspire to and why? What it means to be a man or a woman or anything? You know, what these what you know, how these things have been entrenched through history. I think you’re releasing perhaps more of the historical data that’s attached to something than you are the thing itself. A chair is just a chair. You can decide it’s a good chair because it came from an expensive store, or you can decide it’s a good chair because it’s really comfortable or because it matches your couch. You know? I mean, you can decide all these things based on meaning. It’s a chair.

Linda Lang:
And everything will still have meaning. It’s just a different meaning than what we’ve given it previously.

Paul Selig:
I suspect so, but I don’t know. You know, my favorite picture of my friend is my favorite picture because of the memory that I attached to that day or the friend or all of those things. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with those things. But, you know, really, it’s a piece of paper that’s been imprinted with an image, and that’s what it is. It’s all what I apply to it. You know? Everything is just what we see. My few experiences with this as they’ve been coming have been remarkable because you see everything, and it just is. It just is.

It’s just, it just is without all the meaning, and it’s spectacular, but it’s not fraught with the emotional baggage that I would have given it. I had this happen recently during retreat, and the Guides were teaching. A lot of us did, and we went like, “woah. This is really something. It just is.” You know, the Guides would say, “God is. God is. God is.”

But they say that we’re still caught up in imprinting the meaning of what the word “god” holds. And so it’s still operating in this kind of subjective way. And the idea of it is, it just simply is. That was a mind blower. It’s like somebody just pulled the the lens off of the camera and just it was just all there, and it was all remarkable. You know? It just was. It’s a very different thing. And I, and when I say there’s a neutrality to it, that doesn’t mean an apathy to it.

It just means it doesn’t have the attachment of, you know, this is an expensive watch. Look at the kind of watch I’m wearing. It’s a watch. But you’re seeing the thing as resplendent in its own right. And that’s remarkable. Resplendent not because it’s Cartier or anything else or because your father gave it to you, but it just is.

Linda Lang:
It’s an appreciation for what it is rather than the attachments that you put on it.

Paul Selig:
Yes. That’s a good way to say it.

Linda Lang:
So it also says up in the Upper Room that we’re going to keep our bodies. A lot of people think that, you know, “ascension,” we become spirit or light beings. But it was very clear that we still keep our bodies.

Paul Selig:
I’ve never gotten anything other. You know? And my sense is that, you know, it’s actually a privilege to come and have an experience through form. But the challenge that we’ve had is we come from from legacies of of religion and, you know, historically, where they say that, you know, God is in the ethers and God is an old man in a cloud or God is where you go when you die and the body is an encumbrance. You know, there’s, there, there are scholars who look at the work that I do with the Guides sometimes. And, you know, I taught once with this guy, Jeffrey Kripal. He was the head of the religious studies, program at Rice University, and he’s got a lot of books on gnosticism, things like that. He said this is a gnostic teaching. And Victoria Nelson, who’s on the phone, was an occult scholar.

For the first 4 or 5 books, she was there. She said, “No. No. No. It’s a hermetic teaching.” And I don’t even know barely know the difference. But because the Guides are speaking to the body and the importance of form. So what the Guides have said is as long as you think that God is in the clouds and you’re stuck in the mud without God, you’re gonna miss it all because God is also the mud.

It’s all things. And the realization of the inherent divinity of form is something that they teach, and they teach it in ways that are very physically palpable. I think the Book of Truth is where they got into this stuff first, and then they continued with it once that was established as part of their curriculum. So it’s interesting stuff. I don’t get that. Back in, like, 2012 when the Mayan calendar was, and I was doing workshops. And people said, “How could you do a workshop on this date? Nobody’s going to be here. People will have ascended.”

I said, “That doesn’t work that way.” You know? There’s always been people who think it’s an escape. I understand the idea of rapture as metaphor for an ascension, but do I think people are gonna be knocked out of their shoes? No. I never did. I don’t think that this is about escapism. I don’t think it’s about escaping the world that we’re cocreating. I think it’s about the realization of the world in a higher way than we have, and that’s a different thing.

Linda Lang:
I think we can all agree that there’s been a lot of change lately, a lot of change really quickly. So many people take note of how quick manifestations happen, how quickly change is happening. One of the quotes from your book says that “the shift you are undergoing and the velocity of the shift is only going to increase through the times you were in. How you manage your expectations and your experience in all ways will be a reflection of the consciousness you hold.” So I find that kind of interesting because it implies that the rapid speed of this transformation and the manifestations that occur is going to continue.

Paul Selig:
You know, I barely remember the books because when I’m channeling, I’m so busy taking the dictation. The first time I actually read the books is when I’m doing the audiobooks, and I’m just having to sit there and read through the whole thing aloud. And that’s where I understand, you know, the fullness of the teaching where the reckoning in a time of great change and a reckoning is a facing of the self and all of one’s creations and everything that we’ve created personally and collectively in fear will need to be re-seen in a higher way, and this is a process that is happening now, and it’s ongoing. I don’t think we’re done yet.

Linda Lang:
I don’t think we’re done yet either. It also mentions we are not the arbiters of change, but the ambassadors of change. And I think that’s something really important for us to embrace because we think we’re causing all this negative change, and yet maybe it’s just supposed to be.

Paul Selig:
One of the problems with sort of new age thinking is that people think that manifestation is about getting stuff. You know? How do I get what I want? How do I manifest this? And what I think people misunderstand is that everything that we see – and the Guides would say high, low, and in between – everything that we see and experience, we’re in vibrational accord to or with, which means we’re in energetic coherence with it, which means it’s still something that we’re contributing to at a level of consciousness. How you see the chair and you decide its value will claim that chair for you in in accord. So I think that we’re, we’re accountable to our choices. I think that we are accountable to how we treat one another, how we value human life, how we value the planet. All that stuff we’re accountable to. You know, you break it, you bought it.

I mean, it’s ours to deal with. And I suspect we’re having to see some of that now because we have to, because I suspect we can’t go on doing what we’ve done. I mean, the have said, you know, if you wanna learn the folly of war by having no one left standing, you can do that. They don’t judge that. I don’t hear that it’s gonna happen. I get a more hopeful message. But then we’re gonna have to realize how we are participating in a world, a co-created world, and how our awareness and our consciousness is actually party to those creations. We’re contributing to all of it.

Do I think this is something that’s happening to us? I think it’s opportunity. I really do. I think it’s all opportunity. I think some of it is hard and, and somewhat dreadful. And I think that we’re looking at our own creations, not what some god has done to us. I don’t think we’re gonna get this as being smited. I mean, I think if we want to learn the hard way, we can. And I think that’s true with all growth.

You know, we get to achieve some of that.

Linda Lang:
There’s a lot of people that think someone or some type of beings are coming to save us.

Paul Selig:
I don’t get that stuff. Other people get that stuff. I’m not knocking it. I just it’s not what my guides talk about with me. And I personally… Well, I’ll give you this example. When the very first book, which was called I Am the Word, was published in 2010, I did a little book signing. The very first one, I think it was at the old Bodhi Tree Bookstore in Los Angeles, which is a famous bookstore. I think I had 5 people come with the book signing.

Nobody knew who I was. And I read a little couple of paragraphs or pages from the book, and some woman in the second row raised her hand. She said, this sounds like what the Arcturian Council of such and such is saying, and what do your guides say about those evil aliens? And I was like, why? I don’t know. Then the Guides piped in, and they said, “Isn’t it bad enough that you can’t get along with each other here? You now have to vilify the rest of the universe.” This is what basically they were saying, this is what you like to do. You like to find somebody to blame, and you know, and that takes away some of your responsibility to your own well-being. So I’m not knocking this but it’s just not what they talk about.

And, you know, if they were to talk about that and if they one day will, I’ll I’ll probably be in a position to have to go, “Oh, well,” and then take the dictation because I’m really just a radio for a transmission. I don’t get to cherry pick what they talk about at all.

Linda Lang:
I tend to think that if we create the problem, we’re the ones who fix it. I don’t know if I like that word fix, but we deal with it. We learn from it. We grow from it, and it is what it is. Right?

Paul Selig:
It’s opportunity.

Linda Lang:
It reminds me of a quote from your last book that it’s also in this book about what you damn, damns you. And the opposite, what you bless blesses you.

Paul Selig:
Mhmm.

Linda Lang:
And it’s hard sometimes in this world because we do see things that, you know, cause us some grief if we have a compassionate heart or sometimes maybe some anger, some whatever. There’s so many things going on. How can we look at those things and change it in our minds?

Paul Selig:
I’m an old time twelve-stepper, you know. And one of the things that I was taught, you know, 37 years ago, whenever it was, was look for the good or the God in everybody, and it’s a challenge sometimes. And I like to sit and, you know, be self righteous. But I do believe what the Guides say, which is self righteousness is always the small self or the personality self. And if I ever have an investment in being right at the cost of somebody else being wrong, I’m probably operating from my personality. So what you damn damn’s you back is a simple teaching. It’s almost, I suspect, you know, physics or something. It’s who you put in darkness calls you to the darkness.

It’s just basic vibrational accord. In 4th book, I think the guides dictated The Book of Mastery, there was a meditation where they invited the reader. They said you’re walking out, you’re going up a mountain, and there’s a cave, and you walk into that cave. And the one person you never wanna see again as long as you live is in the cave. And the opportunity is to bring them to the light. You’re walking them out. They say because you put them in darkness, they called you there. You know, there are people in my experience that I don’t wanna see again, and I don’t need to.

And, you know, I have boundaries, and I have the right to those boundaries. They have the right to be in the world, but they don’t have the right to, you know, climb over my fence and break into my house. You know? And that doesn’t mean I put them in darkness. It means that I’m holding myself in a kind of value as well. It’s very challenging sometimes when you look at how people behave and you look at how governments can act and you look at choices that are made to support them. And I don’t think this is about hypocrisy, and I don’t think it’s about whitewashing or what people call spiritual bypassing. It doesn’t exist. It’s all okay.

You know, the Guides have said many times, if you’re walking down the street and there’s 2 people fighting and you have the opportunity to stop the fight, and you may do so, do so. You know? You’re not just saying, “Well, they created it.” You know, in the New Age culture, you used to hear these things like, “Well, she created her poverty.” And the Guides would say, “And she’s also giving you the opportunity to learn generosity.” You know? “She’s also giving you the opportunity to lend a helping hand.” You know, the selfishness that we operate with is a whole other thing. So let me see if they wanna say anything about how to stop when, stop when the damming occurs.

They’re saying: Realize that you are the one doing it. They are not doing it. They are not doing it. You’re operating from your opinion, your historical legacy, which would be your historical legacy of what should be deciding what an outcome must look like, deciding what an outcome must look like, and being frustrated. And being frustrated when you don’t receive it, when you don’t receive it, you realize whoever she is, to realize whoever she is, whatever he is, whatever he is, simply has a right to be, will do 50% of the work. As Paul said, as Paul said, you may do what you need. You may do what you need to decide your own safety, to decide your own safety or your own well-being, or your own well-being. We’re talking about this.

But when you start putting up fences out of fear, out of fear, you’re damning the world. You are damning the world and damning yourself in response and damning yourself in response, period, and they’re saying, period. So that’s them.

Linda Lang:
That actually makes a lot of sense. So your role here in this world is to be you, to live as you and not infringe on other people or specifically allow them to infringe on you to be something other than you are.

Paul Selig:
I would say that’s true. You know? I mean, it’s a teaching of being. It’s not a teaching of behaving, you know. Finally.

Linda Lang:
And accepting, accepting all as being a cell in the body of God. Right?

Paul Selig:
Absolutely. Yes.

Linda Lang:
Anything about opening heart chakras and how that unconditional love is going to spread through humanity at some point? And maybe why we don’t tap into it more?

Paul Selig:
You know, they’ve probably mentioned heart chakras 4 times in 12 books. So they don’t talk a lot about the energy systems. They’ve said it’s God that loves through us. I think it’s about… how can… I’m gonna have to go to them. How do you do this? “You have to understand. You have to understand that whoever stands before you is worthy of love, is worthy of love regardless of how they present, what they have done, what they have done, or what they are choosing to learn through and understand that love, when you understand that love is not dependent upon behavior, is not dependent upon behavior, or you are getting what you want, the love will flow readily when you decide events. When you’ve decided in advance who’s worthy of love, who is worthy of love and who is not, and who is not? We’re playing a hard game. We’re playing a hard game of separation, of separation, not know love, and you will not know love.

You will know your preferences. You will know your preferences, which is quite different, which is quite different.”

Linda Lang:
Thank you, Paul, and thank you, Guides. It’s good. I’m trying to figure out how to ask this question because we’re here in this dimension, this place that we’re in, the low, the lower personality, and we have our more divine presence that still is connected and eternal. And yet, it seems like we have to make the agreements here on this level.

Paul Selig:
I think you’re asking about the use of will in this and it is choice. And, you know, I understand that. And because the guides I work with don’t override free will, and I don’t think any high level guide will. I really don’t think it works that way. But the choice to align to the higher, I think, is made here. It may be inspired by the highest. You know? I didn’t come into any kind of awareness of spirit until my own ability to fix my problems at the time were gone. And I, you know, I just I was like, “Okay.

I can’t do this anymore.” And then I asked for help, and the help showed up fast. Real fast in a way that, in a way that was remarkable and that I couldn’t ignore. So when I was in my early thirties and struggling with everything, I’m sure, but also with starting to channel and what was coming through and I always have to say I’m 99% sure that I heard this from from the Guides because I wrote it on a piece of paper ’cause I didn’t understand it, and I stuck it in a book. What I heard was “Freedom comes when the throne relinquishes its king.” And I thought what the hell does that mean? And, basically, it just means who’s running the show. That’s it. What aspect of the self is commandeering reality and deciding how things should be and how they should look? You know, my personality self can be like, you know, the red queen and Alice in Wonderland, off with their heads. You know? That’s the personality self.

Now, the personality self or, they don’t really call it the the lower self, they’ll say the small self sometimes is also of God. It’s not wrong. It’s doing the best it can with the tools it’s been given. I mean, the Guides have said it’s like we’re born into a pool that somebody already peed in. You know? We don’t know the difference. It’s just what we know. This pollution, which is fear, has informed so much that we expect it to always be there.

The aspect of self that is unafraid and isn’t operating in judgment and isn’t trying to get its way all the time is what they call the God Within or the Monad or the Divine Self or the Christ Within. They call it a lot of different things; I don’t think it matters what it’s called. But that’s the part of us, I suspect, that moves into primacy, but it does that through agreement and willingness. Do you know? And if you hear things like, “I will to will thy will,” I used to think, you know, like, maybe it was my old twelve step stuff, but, you know, “thy will not mine be done” as if there was something wrong with the will itself. Like, my will is just awful, so please… And then I became very passive for a period of time. I don’t know what I’m supposed to do.

I don’t know what God’s will is for me, so I did, I did nothing. But when you move into an awareness that the will itself can be offered and utilized in a higher way, it gets a lot easier because you’re not trying to get your own way all the time. You know? And that’s how I see it at least.

Linda Lang:
And probably have a greater level of clarity as well.

Paul Selig:
Yeah. You know, the Guides have said the True Self knows, the small self thinks. And they say, you know, go to a time in your life when you knew something. You really truly knew it. And they said, whenever you’ve known something, truly, there’s never been a question about it. You know? And when I’m thinking, there’s always a question. Nothing wrong with thinking. I have to do it every day and all the time, but it’s, it’s different.

And when I’m moving to my knowing, which is what I’m doing when I’m operating as a channel or reading for people, I just didn’t… I’m more out of the way because I have to be to be effective. If I do question, they respond. I interrupt the teachings all the time when something is confusing to me. But I’ve become aware of the difference, and I have to say that in most ways, my life has gotten infinitely easier. Infinitely. Everything that used to be a struggle. A lot of it some things still are, and I have areas where I need a lot of, you know, growth still, I’m sure.

I don’t claim to be enlightened or done. I tend to be wary of people who say that they are. I don’t buy it. I think people that are enlightened aren’t walking around announcing that they’re enlightened. I think they’re just being, you know, they just know, and they’re doing their thing, and they’re probably of great service and maybe not in ways that, you know, get them before lots and lots of people. One of the most enlightened people I ever met was a Bowery bum who years ago, like in the 1940’s or something, was stopped by a Salvation Army worker. They prayed on the Bowery, and he had a full on awakening. He was a delight.

I don’t think he ever lived in his own apartment. I think he was in SROs and so, like, he was a delight in the world. I never forgot this guy. It was a, it was shocking to me. And the Guides sometimes say, you know, the school crossing guard in your neighborhood may be the highest being in the neighborhood. You don’t know. You know? So that’s how I see it.

Linda Lang:
So important not to judge. The book also says that we are here to learn and to grow, and that’s why we shouldn’t judge other people because we have no idea what their life path unfolds and the soul level they really have. Mhmm. I am curious, Paul, because we talked about how all things are going to raise vibration. Right? The, the “all” is lifting. And we also talked about the small self needing to say yes or giving permission. So there’s a lot of people on earth that aren’t anywhere close to giving permission yet. So is it something that, you know, as the world changes, they’re just gonna be swept and carried up?

Paul Selig:
I heard it’s like 4 generations. That’s what I’ve heard. You know? And maybe that’s convenient, but that’s what I’ve heard. And I do hear that people being born now are being born with a higher awareness already. I mean, they’re coming in sort of prepared for what they’re choosing and facing and how things might be different. I also think that at times, we learn because we have to, not because we want to. You know? I mean, you hear often that, you know, the spouse was unaware of their partner’s cheating when the whole town knew about it. They didn’t wanna know.

They didn’t wanna know it was inconvenient to their reality to to learn that, so they chose not to learn it. And then they do, and the world falls apart and then hopefully comes back together in a better, higher, more honest way. You know? And I think we face some of that. I don’t know. And, you know, I do hear that the level of vibration on the on the planet is escalating. So the density or the darkness or whatever you wanna call it is being confronted and often sort of making a a real stab at sticking around. That’s usually done through fear and separation. But I get that it’s harder and harder and harder to maintain that.

But I don’t think, and this is, this may be helpful, I don’t know that everything lifts. I mean, if you have a house where the foundation is basically based in fear, I don’t know if the house lifts. You know? If what’s holding a system together is control, or greed, which are all, you know, things that are somewhat fear-based, I don’t know that they live. They may have to be renowned in a completely other form. You know, we’re always taking the seeds of the old with us into the new. And if the seed of the old is this sort of has a basis in “I’m gonna get my way at the cost of others getting what they need,” it may not last. And I think we’re seeing some of that.

I think we’re seeing collapsing of of structures and probably will continue to. Is that fun? No. Is it graceful? No. Is it happening the way I think it should? Absolutely not. But whatever is, whatever I think about what should be still is based on my sense of how a world should work based on what I grew up around and what I would expect. And that’s the history that I would seek to perpetuate because I don’t know the difference, even if it’s not a healthy one.

Linda Lang:
If you could suggest one of the affirmations from the Guides that could maybe help people through those places.

Paul Selig:
Yeah. The Guides don’t call them affirmations. They call them claims of truth, and they say what is true is always true. I suspect that the the claims, and there are 3. “I know who I am. I know what I am. I know how I serve.” Now the guides are saying that these things are claimed at the level of the Divine Self.

The Divine Self always knows who it is and what it is and how it serves, which is simply how it expresses. It’s not what its career is or how it shows up in the the costume of of the New Age, whatever that might be. Who you are is the divine come as you. What you are is a manifestation of this, and how you serve is how that divine self expresses itself. And those are energetic claims. They operate with frequency, and they can support people in awakening to their true meaning.

Linda Lang:
I think that’s a perfect, perfect place to start. Paul, where can we send people who might like to know more about your work?

Paul Selig:
My website is my name, paulselig.com. I do a lot of live streams. The Guides are teaching all the time, and I do live events again. So I’m easy to find if you go to my website.
