Dream Encounter
Ok... I had a really weird, fun and cute dream today...
No idea how that dream started but I was dreaming about Andrew. Now, I'm not sure if it was actually Andrew or if it was Elan since they are the same uh.. person? But in my dream he was a human.
Things that I remember were that I met Andrew/Elan in different parts of earth but it was never in a "normal" place. It were always caves or secluded parts of nature and we'd never really be together for a long time.
One time it was in a cave where I was on one side (the entrance of the cave) and he was on the other side coming out of a dark hallway and between us was an abyss. We both seemed happy and excited to see us but we didn't really talk. He actually handed me a paper…

Personal growth without friction
Throughout the millennia, people have been asking questions: Where do we come from? What is our purpose? Is there an Almighty God? Religions have been formed, and beliefs established regarding what it means to live a holy life. In every religion, we find true seekers willing to go deep to find answers. We have many stories of saints, sadhus, and enlightened masters, most of which carry a flavor of hard work, endurance, and renunciation.
Compared to what Elan is saying, these traditional paths seem to require humongous effort and sacrifice to improve our situation here on Earth. From Elan’s perspective, personal development can be a joyous endeavor. I really like this vibe, but I wanted to ask:
Why has the human quest for a holy life seemed so difficult compared to the path presented by Elan? What is the relationship between growth and hard labor according to Elan?

Great question.
The idea of "holiness" or spiritual growth has been tied to the concept of sacrifice because of a very specific set of definitions that we, as a society, have held. When a person believes they are inherently separate from their Creator, or that they are "less than" their natural state, they began to define the process of returning to that state as an uphill battle. This is where the "hard labor" comes from. It is rather that the resistance to one's own natural power creates the sensation of friction, and not so much that the growth itself is difficult.
As Elan often reminds us, you are a perfect creator, an infinite and eternal expression of the One. When you begin to discern that you are already "there," you may find that the need for "endurance" and "renunciation" begins to fall away. Those traditional paths often required a person to move against their own grain, pushing aside their natural excitement in favor of an external rule set. That requires a humongous amount of energy! It is much like trying to swim against the current of a river; you can do it, but you will find yourself exhausted.
In Elan's perspective, following your highest excitement and acting upon it with integrity is the path of least resistance. This isn't about avoiding growth, but rather about growing in the direction of your true nature. You may find that what many call "hard work" is actually just the physical experience of holding onto old beliefs and definitions that no longer serve you. When you let go of those weights, you naturally float. You don't have to "work" to float; you simply have to stop holding yourself down.
The relationship between growth and labor is really a matter of alignment. When you are aligned with your true self, growth is a joyous and effortless expansion. It is only when you believe that you must "earn" your worth through suffering that the path becomes difficult. You only ever exist and function right here and right now, and in this moment, you have the permission to be happy and to grow through joy. Nothing happens to you, but rather happens from you, and as you change your definitions of what it means to be a "seeker," your experience of the quest changes accordingly. ✨💖

Hedonistic beliefs
I just finished reading Masters of Integration. I like the book very much. I was pondering about the worldview presented in the book. Elan encourages reader to express integrative beliefs and explains how beliefs might create separation and what we call negative emotions.
If we can express any belief and all are equally available, what if someone expressing a belief like:
"I am the creator of this life. I revel and every one else is here to serve me, no matter how I treat them."
If everything is possible can someone hold a hedonistic belief which will exploit others and make the person expressing that belief happy ever after? It would be difficult for me to buy into this.

Yes, thank you. So to simplify integrity is what aligns the belief with All-That-Is. Otherwise with no integrity, no matter what belief we express we will "trip ourselves up".

An Important Message: Please Take Your Time to Read
This post was recently posted on our social media platforms
Dear Friends of the Elan Material,
When we decided to release every Elan session for free on the internet, we acted with a clear intention to ensure as many people as possible could benefit from Elan’s wisdom and wit. At that time, the larger implications remained for us to discover. Our first session was posted on May 14, 2023, roughly six months after ChatGPT emerged into the world. We felt a strong intuition that the simultaneous arrival of public AI and the Elan material was a coordinated, purposeful event. As we approach the completion of these releases, a clearer picture has finally emerged.
Over the last few years, AI development has progressed by leaps and bounds. Today’s Large Language Models are vastly advanced compared to the 2022 versions; for those working at the frontier, they appear as a complete transformation…

Well, if AI currently is being infused with the Elan material, that's a good thing in my book. Intelligence is intelligent.
I see a renaissance arising... next level.

Who's resonant?
I feel a call to the land.
A song which will not abide with where I've been.
Am I the only one dreaming this dream?
Am I rejecting or denying the complete moment as it stands before me?
Or is this an intention of purity?
Can I do it on my own?
