The Value Of The Breath ~ A message from Jesus/Jeshua ~ March 13, 2019


by Judith Coates

Beloved one, let us now speak about the value of the breath. To breathe in is the first thing that you do at birth into human formβ€”or as the fourfooted, as wellβ€”and to breathe out is the last thing that you do when you are laying down the body and moving into the true form of the energy of Light.

When we were designing a form, there was a meeting of minds to design something that would be agile and attractive. We tried out several forms in the four-footed category. You have ones that are in what you call your mythology that you say, β€œWell, it couldn’t be,” but it was. And yes, we did the unicorn and the satyr, the combination of what was half horseβ€”the back end anywayβ€”and the human form of man or woman in the front.

And as part of the design, we contemplated the techniques of breathing. Was it something that we wanted to try out? You know well the feeling of the inhale and the exhale, and we played with the different snorts, as they are called. You have seen this with some of your four-footed large size ones who make quite a loud sound through the nose and through the mouth (as some of the human ones can do, as well).

We played with shapes of noses. Have you noticed that even in this day and time there are a variety of noses: a Roman nose (aristocratic), or a short, stubby nose, or a longer size, more of a proboscis, or many other varieties?

Some of our experiments worked really well, and some of them were as food for other ones’ designs in their experimenting.

So you learned how to either fly away, to run very fast, swim in the water very fast, or to say, β€œWell, I only wanted to live one day anyway.” You have even now your insects, the very small ones, that live for a day or so, and then they come back perhaps as the birds. So that which you might have been the day before as an insect, now you come back and are the bird which eats the insect. And is there judgment? No, there is not judgment. There is only expression.

By the time you get to walking on two feet and you think that you are lord and king of everything, i.e. human, there is judgment. There is gradation in what is seen to be of value, and of course man is at the top of the pyramid. He, and now it is changing to she, where you have the female form which is saying, β€œI am equal, and if it be known, I am actually a little wiser.” (Smile) I jest with you.

Whether you choose in an incarnation to be male or female is a free choice, because you have been both male and female, and you have decided in different expressions of lifetimes whether you would come male and male together, female and female together, or male and female together. It is only the society, as you bring ones as groupings together, which gets into judgment as to what is right and what is not right.

I say unto you that love is always right, always appropriate. It does not matter what the form is; only love. So some of you are playing with expressions in this lifetime to see how it feels, and some of you say, β€œBeen there, done that; I love all.” That is truly the place where you find the expression and the expansiveness of Oneness, the place where you love All and everything; no judgment.

The breath: in this expression of life, it is basic. Moreover, it has value besides keeping the form working. It has value, as you have found, when the mind is too busy, when the mind is overused and there is the cry that comes from the soul that says, β€œLet me feel peace.” You stop and take the deep breath, and then maybe another deep breath after that, and a sense of peace is known.

Then the next moment oftentimes the mind gets very busy and asks of itself, β€œWhat was I just thinking about?” And with that, in come all of the judgments and feelings and thoughts of what has to be. Then you breathe again and let it go.

Sometimes a friend will come to you who is very overwrought about something. You can feel their energy, and you do not want to be in that energy. You very quietly take the deep breath, standing in your place of peace by the simplicity of the breath, and your peace may reach your friend and they may feel peaceβ€”or not. (Smile) It may take a few more deep breaths.

When it comes to the last breath of a lifetime, for most it is very peaceful. Even for ones who are not expecting to lay down the body, the last breath happens in an instant. You have seen this, those of you who have been with ones who have laid down the body, where one moment they are breathing, maybe very gently, and the next moment they are not.

Oftentimes there is a sense of peace which comes with that last breath; it is as a gift that you give to yourself to be in peace with the breath. So it is not something to be feared. It is truly something to be welcomed, but not before you are finished with the form.

You have in this day and time brothers and sisters who are not happy with having chosen the human form, and they want out, as they say. And there is judgment made by other ones who say, β€œThey don’t have the right to choose to go on,” and yet of course they do. It is always a choice to express with form, any type of form which is chosen, and it is also a choice as to when and how the last breath is going to be taken and to move on in consciousness expressing.

Now, the question has come up many times, β€œWhat happens when I draw the last breath? What should happen to the form?” Well, it depends as to what you have planned and told others that you would like to have happen with the form. If they go according to your wishes, then that is what is done. But at the point when you release the it, you are not concerned about the form.

If ones decide that they are going to dig a hole and put the body in it, okay. Or ones may decide that too much of terra firma is being dug up and having forms put into it, and they feel that it would be more economical and efficient to allow the body to be burned into ashes and then to save the ashes in a little container so that whenever they pass the mantelpiece, they can say, β€œHi” to whomeverβ€”I see this happening from time to time.

But with the last breath you are finished with the form and you are free.

You do not hold the feeling of shoulds. Whatever they decide to do, that is what brings them peace. Once you lay down the form, it is not something that you are concerned about. There is much fear, and has been for a long time, born of the soil of belief in separation, that when the form is let go, β€œWhere do I go? Do I cease being, and am I separate from all? Where do I go?”

You go into the green meadow that we have talked about many times: the grassy knoll, the top of the tree, up to the cloud, free. Whatever you want to experience, you will experience, because you are the Creator. You are creating this time that we have together. You are creating the morrow as you will see it. After you release the form and you have allowed the last breath, you will be still creating.

Now, if you have been taught by the supposed learned ones, who do not actually know all that much, that you are going to go to a fiery place to be cleansed, you will have that belief for an instant outside of time. But then you are free; free to rest, to join with others of the soul group, to create the next expression of Life. Know that truly always and forever, beyond the concept of time, you are creating. You are the Creator. There is no separation. Have you heard me say that before? Oh, yes, of course.

There is no separation. Oftentimes what ones feel with the exultation of letting that last breath go, is a freedom, a very joyful freedom. No matter how the last breath was given, there is a freedom and a joy of freedom.

Is there time beyond the last breath? Yes and no, because you are still creating. So if it has been put very deeply into your belief system that there will be time, and you must make the most of it even after you lay down the body, then there will be a process outside of time that feels that you are still marking off time. But I share with you that that goes very rapidly, because you feel free.

Do you have conscious knowledge of what other ones are doing after you have let go of the last breath? You can if you want to. You can check in from time to time to see how they are doing. However, there is the belief in this point of expression that there is separation, and ones who are still expressing with the form will say that they cannot see you, they cannot hear you, but you are right there sitting next to them, reaching out, touching them, stroking the hair, and they may feel something. β€œWas that Uncle John going by?” Yes, it was, so please feel it. Acknowledge it, and say, β€œI don’t know where you are, but I felt you.” I have heard ones say that, and it is very true, because…There is no separation. There is no separation.

Part of my job, should I desire to accept it, is to drill into you the knowing that there is no separation. So if I repeat myself, it is because that is part of the instructions that I have accepted when I came to speak with you in this way; to say it so many times that when you have released the body and are now wondering, β€œNow, what do I do? What can I do?” you might remember that there is no separation.

So those you have loved in form who have released the body and β€œgone on”, they are still with you. They feel your feelings. If you are in a mournful place, they would like very much to take a finger and give you a poke and say, β€œWake up, I’m still here,” because they are. And when you are happy, they are happy. So it behooves you to remember the ones who have released the form in a joyful way, in a loving way, remembering the times when you have laughed together, when you have hugged together, the times when you have felt heart to heart the Oneness of non-separation.

You are a miraculous being. All of the expressions that you can think of, have thought of, you have brought into form quite often to play with for the sole purpose of feeling joy, feeling love. That is your job, and that is all. I know that many in this day and time β€”and it has been true for thousands of yearsβ€”have felt that they must achieve something. So you have ones who have gone into business and amassed all of the golden coins that they could possibly find and create and bring to themselves. They look at the pile of golden coins and say, β€œI’ve made it.”

But when it comes to the point of releasing the last breath, what do the golden coins matter, whether there is a huge pile or one or none. It does not matter. What does matter is the feeling of love that you take with you that you know to be real. Be you therefore amassing love, the same as you go to your gym workout. You work out and you work out and get stronger and stronger. Workβ€”or playβ€”with Love. Find ones that you can go up to and say, β€œYou know, I really like you. Every time I’m with you I feel so good. I feel in love.”

Fall in love every day with at least one person; best of all, with the one in the mirror. First thing in the morning, you get up and the hair is all messed up and the beard is growing, etc. Look in the mirror and love that one. And the secret is that as you fall in love and feel love with that one, you take it with you out into your day and give the gift of love to everyone you meet.

Then they come alive in love, in the feeling of being of value. That is the greatest gift that you can give to anyone: to let them know that you see they have value, that you are glad to be in expression with them. It is the greatest gift that you can give them.

Breathe, because with the breath comes the opportunity for peace. Sometimes you may have to breathe over and over to the place where you say, β€œBut Yeshua, I’m going to hyperventilate and end up on the floor.” No, you are not going to harm yourself; not by over-breathing; it cannot be done. One of the safeguards that we built into the breath was that you could not over-breathe. You can under- breatheβ€”that can be a little detrimentalβ€” but you cannot over-breathe.

The value of the breath? In this reality β€”lower case β€œr”—try living without it. It does not work so well. The value of the breath: it brings you to the place of peace. The valueβ€”we are doing a series on valueβ€”the value of the breath is beyond measure. It is healing. It is whole-ing. It brings you to the place of Oneness. It brings you to the place of peace where you are open to understanding wisdom which goes beyond the mind: the wisdom of being.

Whenever you have a question about anything, the answer comes with the question, and how you access it is by the breath, taking the deep breath and being open to the answer. If you do not like the answer that you get at first, breathe again and ask for more; more information, more direction. And if nothing comes right away, just abide in peace.

Holy Child, my peace I give unto you. Breathe.

So be it.

2016: Year Of Light ~ Feb. 10, 2016


Judith Coates

Wow! My friend, A. is on a roll! No doubt he realizes I work all day and is helping with my research…thanks A.! Now he has found another great article, this time from Jesus, as channelled through Judith Coates.

Please read this article, imagine what you are creating, and…

Injoy!

So you brought forth lilies, daffodils, daisies, roses, moonbeams, all of the things of beauty, and you knew yourself to be in a garden, a beautiful garden. You looked around and you wondered, β€œWhat else can I create? Can I have someone who will share this with me?” And you did. You created someone like you to enjoy the beauty that you had created and that you kept on creatingβ€”the sunrises, the sunsets, everything of nature, everything that you considered to be beautiful, and you were happy.

You knew yourself to be the creator of what you were experiencing, what you were seeing, and you knew the other one was feeling the same as you were. There was a rapport, if you will, a sameness of the one Mind come forth to experience.

Then again there came the thought, β€œWhat else can I create?” So you created the certain life forms that would eat the plants. You experienced being in the creation that you were making, and there came a certain forgetting that you were the one creating, that you were the one who created the tallest trees and the animals which would climb the trees. You created all form, all variations of forms. Then you had another thought. β€œIn the competition, can I create something that is stronger than what my friendsβ€”by this time you had created other friends β€”create, something stronger, more powerful that can run faster, climb higher, see farther, swim faster? Can I come to a place of the competition where my object can overcome the others?”

It was still a game. It was still one Mind playing within the one Mind, and knowing that it was all from the same divinity, the same energy. But as more and more of your attention became fascinated by the creations, there was a forgetting that you were the one who was creating. There was a forgetting that truly there is but one Mindβ€” capital β€œM”.

Sometimes you know the one Mind even now. There are times when you tune in to each other, and you can tell what the other one is feeling or thinking or planning. You have a feeling, and you wonder sometimes, β€œWhere did that feeling come from? Where did that thought come from?” You may think of someone, and then your technology sounds off and you say, β€œOh, they are on the telephone calling me.” You knew, before you even picked it up, who it was going to be, because you still live within the one Mind.

You do not focus on it, but it is still there. It is still an intuitive power that you have not lost. You know how the mate is feeling. She may not say a word. He may just have feelings, and you tune in to them. You know when your friends are having a good day, and you know when they may be trying to have a good day. You can feel, because you are still in the one Mind, even if you do not focus or attend to it.

Then as the feeling of separation grewβ€”β€œI am separate from you, my creations are separate from your creations, my creations are better than yours,” etc.β€”there was a sense of distancing and a sense of competition. You have been living with that feeling for a long, long time, so long that you have almost, but not quite, forgotten that you are creating your realityβ€”lower case β€œr”—that you are creating your experiences, and you are also creating your reactions to your creations.

You have taken the β€œknowing” of separation now to a certain degree quite far out, so that you now feel separate from the chair that you sit on, separate from the dwelling place that you are in, separate from each other. You have certain personality traits. Your friends have other personality traits. Each one would say, β€œI am unique. I am special,” and you are, but there is always the one Mind which joins you together, and that has been forgotten.

That is what this year is about. There is going to be more Light coming forth in this year. The Light is going to be showing up the places of darkness. That is why you see so much being mirrored back to you by your news media. They bring you a picture of what is seemingly happening, and it looks very dark. That is because there is more Light shining on it.

The world happenings seem to be getting darker and darker with more pockets of suffering. In truth, those pockets of suffering have been there a long time, but now the Light is shining a bit stronger, and it is showing up the dark places in more clarity.

The Light that you Are is growing stronger every time you have a thought that says, β€œI am the Light,” every time you have a thought that says, β€œI believe, I believe that the Light is getting stronger,” even if you follow it with that very famous saying, β€œHelp thou mine unbelief.” In other words, β€œI believe, I want to believe, I do believe, but sometimes I need a little bit of help to really believe.” That is okay, because you are focusing on the Light, and the Light is going out and is showing up the pockets of darkness.

Whereas before, there was not as much Light, and everything seemed more gray, now you have distinct Light and distinct dark, and that is why I speak so optimistically of this year, because truly you are making changes. You individually have come to a certain point of wanting change, of knowing that you can make change, and collectively that is happening on the broad scale as well.

Ones have suffered enough. Ones are at the place where they want to be relieved of the suffering. As we have mentioned in other times, the ones who seem to be going through suffering are the ones who have volunteered to play that scripting so that there can be a focusing upon what is seemingly happening and what can be changed. They have volunteered to be part of the groupings that seemingly are suffering.

Attend to that word, seemingly, because in truth, that is how you are receiving the information that they are suffering. But are they truly suffering? Not really. They are playing a part that they have volunteered to play, and they are doing a very good job of it so that you can see the difference between Light and dark, and the Light is growing.

Now, when we have spoken of separation and of the focus upon whatever you are creating, upon your creations, you have chosen to be in a certain grouping of ones who are seeing much of division, much of separation. Why? Because you have wanted to knowβ€”and there is no judgment in this, so hear this wellβ€” you have wanted to know, β€œHow does it feel to be in an experience unlike love?” Because you know, at the basis of you, the very basic element, the very basic, tiny piece as you might see yourself, that you are Love. This is your essence. You want to love. You want to be loved. You know that truly that is all there is, is Love.

But you have said, β€œFor a while, I want to try out what it feels like to be outside of that.” So you and some of the other ones, as you call other aspects of yourself, have said, β€œWe will play on a planet far, far out in space, a warring planet where ones are in competition, where ones have forgotten how to love.” And then ones such as you come along and say, β€œHey, those aren’t the rules. I know different rules. I’m not going to play by those rules.”

And you start changing everything. Then the ones who are seemingly your playmates wonder, β€œWhat is going on? What has changed? Why has it changed? What page are we on?” In other words, in the scripting, what page? Because you are changing things. You have said, β€œOkay, I’ve had enough of this. I have felt unloved long enough. I have felt separate from my whole being. I have felt that long enough. I want to know love. I want to feel love. I want to give love. I want to live in an ocean of love,” and you are going to.

In this year you are clearing out a lot of the dark. Why? Because you have had it up to here, above the head, with feeling unloved. You have had it. Some of you have had it in the first few years of your lifetime, enough that would do forever, for eons, and you have said, β€œOkay, okay, done; I am going to live in love now. I am changing the rules,” and you do; you step out of the unloving hologram.

Sometimes you are a little bit hesitant, and you say to yourself, β€œWell, I want to have a little change, maybe a little change. Okay, I’ll do it.” And it worked. It was okay. β€œI went up to that person, and I said to them, β€˜Hey, I’m really glad to see you,’” and you are thinking on the inside, β€œI hope it’s okay to say that, because I really want to live in love, and I don’t want something unlike love coming back at me. But I want to try it. Can I really try it? Yes, I can try it.” So you bring both feet together, and you say, β€œI’m glad you’re here. I have missed you. I have missed having you in my life. I really want to play again as we used to play.”

At that point, what do you think the Light does? It goes on, yes. It extends, and it grows brighter. If there is any part of darkness, it will show up, and then it will disappear. You have a saying in your world that is very, very true, and it is a very good saying to remember, that the darkness cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.

A candle flame will always be light. You put it in a dark room; the darkness cannot extinguish that light. That is Who and What you are. You are the candle. Remember your Light. Let it shine. Smile. Know that truly you have the courage to come forth and to live in Light.

You have chosen out of great courage to live on a planet far, far away; far, far away, seemingly, from love, in order to bring your Light to it, to play in the darkness and then to be the light of the candle, to shine in love, and to find other ones who want to feel that Light as well. And what happens when you get together with other ones who have that Light, and they want to play with the Light? What happens? It magnifies itself.

This year is going to be a wonderful year for you. You are going to be finding more and more Light, and that is going to show up more and more darkness. I tell you that ahead of time, because when you see the darkness, do not get into an, β€œOh, my goodness,” place. You do not have to be in that place.

Know that truly you are the flame of the candle. You are the flashlight that is beaming your Light onto everything that may be seemingly dark. It really is not dark. It is just missing its Light. So you come along and you shine your Light. You do that in the marketplace, and people find what they are looking for. They are looking for love, for acceptance.

Go forth in this year. Let your Light shine.

So be it.
