There is at least a little bit of truth in everything we see and feel, touch, hear and read. Discerning which part is truth and which part is not is the key. As anyone who has read my work knows, I am the puzzle-doer, the one who puts the little pieces of truth together from many sources, directed by the Spiritual Hierarchy. That is why I can write a 300 page book in 3-weeks, and why I always try to give credit where credit is due, to those who do the hard work of sifting out the pieces that I can then put together.

The following message is one such instance where the more relevant truths have been extracted from a longer message to get to the very heart of the Matter the quickest and deliver the most impact. This function is not that of a gatekeeper to withhold knowledge or information from the reader, but in a world that is flooded with information but very little wisdom to discern and digest the facts amidst so much chaff, it is simply a service from Spirit to make things a little clearer. Despite all people say about it, there is only one truth, just many levels of perceiving the bigger picture of it. Those who say there are many truths usually use that as an excuse to have us buy into a lie, and they usually cover their own purposes with truths gleaned from the Higher Orders of Wisdom.

What Aq'naton channels here is a familiar message spread by so many others from many varied spiritual paths. The simplicity of its message has been taught for eons--'Just be,' and know that in doing this you are already doing what it is you came to this planet to do.

Message #6 - Your Greatest Strength and Power
Aq'naton

" . . . Know that through all you do through your connection with your highest power and empowerment, your highest self and your God- self, you are effecting the transformation you came here to effect. You effect it within yourself and you help midwife it within all others with whom you come into contact. Celebrate that on this wondrous day. Celebrate it and acknowledge it. . . . Just be.

" . . . Do you know why you are self-conscious? It is the same reason that anyone is self-conscious about anything: fear of your power . . . Are you self-conscious about your looks? Then perhaps you mask through your self-consciousness a beauty, inner and outer, that is so magnificent it frightens you. Are you self-conscious about the words you craft on the page? Then perhaps that self-consciousness masks the immense power of your creative spirit. Are you self- conscious about letting your voice ring out with your truth? Then know that what you fear is not another's reaction. What you fear is your (own, individual) power.

"Self-consciousness is your ego mind's protection against the very force and beauty of your power. Again: Self-consciousness is your ego mind's protection against the very force and beauty of your power.

"So look at those areas in your life where you carry self- consciousness and know that in those areas have you the greatest power.

"Where are you embarrassed? Where are you afraid of being judged? These are the places where you have been judged - not for your lack of strength, power, skill and talent, but for your abundance of those qualities.

"Wherever you feel somehow inadequate or embarrassed, wherever you believe that you cannot shine your light for whatever light you possess is too dim to share safely, then it is your power you are dimming. It is your power you are masking. It is your power you are hiding.

". . . Your brightest light is that part of your beingness about which you harbor the most self-consciousness.

"Your light may be your voice. Your light may be your words. Your light may be your inner beauty. Your light may be the soul-awakening power of your hands or your touch. It may be any number of qualities, characteristics, abilities and capacities around which you harbor such self-consciousness that is difficult to acknowledge them, even privately. And if you do acknowledge them privately, to express them out in the world.

"Do not hide your light under a bushel. For your light shines so brightly that even through the slats of the barrel, it shines through. Let the power of your light break open that barrel, slat by slat, stave by stave, until your light shines through and touches everyone from your place of greatness, which is your place of greatest self-consciousness, which is your place of greatest fear.

"You are the light that will transform the world. You are the light that will transform the world. Know this. Act on this. Be this. For that is why you are here.

"You are here to shine your light that others might feel safe to shine theirs. You are here to shine your light that others might be transformed by it. You are here to shine your light that Heaven on Earth for you and for all might accelerate.

". . . No man is an island. You are not alone in this Cosmos. This means that every other person's act of empowerment pulses to you and through you and frees you to take your next step, whatever it is.

"So open to those areas in your life, in your beingness, where you do not feel worthy. Do it, for they are the areas of your greatest worth. And because of that, they are the areas of your greatest fear. They are the areas of your greatest power, and because of that, they are the areas of your greatest fear.

"Open your heart to yourself. Open your heart to the very light that burns through you, that burns through your areas of power and empowerment, that burns through your special skills and your abundant gifts.

"Let your light shine. Let it shine throughout the Universe. For in this time of great transformation, in this age of great synthesis, what is needed most is the light from your heart, shining through you to touch others.

"Shine not from places of perceived safety, but from the places of perceived greatest risk. These are the areas where you most greatly fear judgment, where you most greatly fear attack, where you most greatly fear destruction.

"These are the areas of your power you have shut down, have allowed to be shut down within you - in this or other lifetimes."
