Over the life of my blog the post most read by my followers is "Voices ... are they real?"
This doesn't surprise me. Hearing voices is, I believe, a phenomenon that happens to everyone, if we're honest with ourselves. Even if we only hear one voice consciously, our conscience - our inbuilt guide that tells us right from wrong.
But, I believe, there's more. How often do we hear someone say:-
"Something tells me that won't work" or "Something inside is saying ... this will be good".
I believe this both fascinates and concerns people.
In my book, Downloading Spirit, I put forward the idea that these voices could be those of our soul mates who like us have positive and negative (and all shades of grey in between) characteristics. I write:-
"These voices in our head, these feelings in our guts, our heart, desperately want to communicate with us. Sometimes, because they're so frustrated, they're like gremlins and goblins, our demons. Other times, when they're wanting to help us, like elves and angels, our guides. Mostly they're so unsettling or frightening we just don't want to hear them, so we block them out."
We only allow ourselves to hear our conscience. It would be good to learn to have a positive two way conversation with our voices, so we can incorporate their knowledge and enhance our performance ability.
I believe today, more and more people are wanting to understand what a human being is. Having to deal with mental health issues opens us to the inescapable realisation that there is more to a human being than just our physical body. There is our consciousness, and it is multifaceted.
"Hearing voices ... " can be a symptom of mental illness. However, more often than not, it has nothing to do with mental illness. Notwithstanding, how many of us are frightened of "hearing voices"? We need to realise that hearing voices is normal. There is nothing to be frightened of. Even if what we hear is negative, we can use it positively to make good things happen.
Again I refer readers to a book by John Watkins, called, Hearing Voices - A Common Human Experience. It is published by Michelle Anderson Publishing Pty. Ltd., and its ISBN is 978-0-8557-2390-3.
It is excellent and helps people to understand that hearing voices is more often than not just a normal part of living.
Psychologists are also learning to help people to work with their voices - Voices inside us.
Coming back to what is a human being?
Without a doubt we are an animal. However, we are different to other animals ... we are self conscious.
But were we always self conscious? No, that really only happened somewhere between 3,000 and 3,500 years ago.
So what type of consciousness did we have before that?
It was called the Bicameral Mind. This theory was put forward first by Julian Jaynes . Since then it has become part of psychological theory. A brief definition is that:-
Bicameralism is a hypothesis in psychology that argues that the human mind once assumed a state in which cognitive functions were divided between one part of the brain which appears to be "speaking", and a second part which listens and obeys—a bicameral mind.

or watch:-
So in 3,000 years human beings have gone from people who heard voices, belonging to non physical beings we called "Gods", to self conscious people who have a conscience and, for the most part, a "God" or a religion that tells us what to do. Some of us have come to a point of knowing that "I am that I am." We take responsibility for ourselves and all we do. As Moses answered his people, when he brought the 10 Commandments down from the Mount, and they asked him who was he talking with, he said "Yahwey", which translates as "I am." Moses took responsibility for bringing his people the 10 Commandments, as Jesus did when he told his followers to "Love one another as you love yourself."
We can all have our own personal conversations with God.
Now we are hearing voices again. We're still self conscious, we know these voices are not "Gods", unless we are mentally ill.
What is happening here?
Is it possible that we could be evolving to another, higher functioning, more inclusive level of consciousness?
Could we be becoming Soul conscious; could we be meeting our soul mates who are not physical? Could we be accessing our Cellular Memory?
In this blog, I deal, superficially, with who we are. In the two that follow, I'll deal with our Soul Mates and our cellular memory.
Relative to all 3 posts is the following C. S. Lewis quote ...
"Humans are amphibians - half spirit and half animal.
As spirits they belong to the eternal world, but as animals they inhabit time." ...
which describes the following image.
A human being is spirit (all that ever will be),
body (all that is - for a moment in time) and
memory (all that has ever been).
The spirits inhabit us. They surround us in our matrix of consciousness which surrounds our physical body in layers of different frequency ranges. Downloading Spirit - Chapter 8.
The animals not only inhabit time, they and all our ancestors, also inhabit us via our cellular memory. Downloading Spirit - Chapter 9. They do not surround us, they are within us. We have adapted and evolved from them.
Our present brain is built on the brains of fish, reptiles and all animals that have preceded us, as well as our bicameral brain. Downloading Spirit - Chapters 9 and 10.
We do indeed inhabit both the eternal world and the world of time, and like a library, we hold all this knowledge within us.
As we move from self consciousness to soul consciousness, we shall not lose our Self, just as when we moved from the Bicameral Mind to Self Conscious Mind, we did not lose our Soul. These levels and aspects of consciousness are what make up every human individual, every human being. We are one and part of everything, a drop of water and an ocean.
As we become more and more soul conscious,
we shall lose our fear of our own power and magnificence, our fear of not surviving.
We shall become multidimensional, capable of time travel, moving between dimensions and lives.
We shall stop handing our power to money and power hungry people who have realised that they can control us through our fear. When we do this, we enable them to acquire more money and power, and desecrate our extraordinary and beautiful planet. As we walk through our fear, our world will heal itself, we shall heal ourselves, and we'll re-create the Garden of Eden that Spirit intended our world to be. As we walk through our fear, the money and power hungry ones will change, or leave.
Animals are frightened because they need to survive, humans are frightened because they know they will die, and they will lose their self, spirit is not frightened because it knows it is light, eternal.
We are spirit/human amphibians, the changelings of our physical world. We can live in time for a limited time learning how to remember who we are. When we do remember, we can knowingly cross between the timeless, non physical world of consciousness to the physical world of time.
When that happens, the amphibian, changeling human has become a multidimensional,
soul conscious spirit being -
a Time Lord
Let us all walk through our fear and remember who we truly are.
