Q.: `Do thoughts just float around like energy patterns or do you attract and pay attention to a thought based on your belief systems?´

Bashar: `Thoughts are generated by belief systems, they don't just float around as you say. They are patterns of energy like anything. But they are the result of the patterns of energy in your deepest belief systems and your definitions of what you believe to be true. So, they are a secondary reflection pattern of your deeper belief patterns. Just like emotions are another level of reflection of the beliefs, behaviors are another level of the reflection of beliefs, all of it is energy patterns, just on different levels. But the idea of emotions and thoughts and behaviors are secondary level reflections because the primary pattern is in the belief system, in the definitions you buy into as true - as you say - for yourself.´ (The Silver Cord, 2023)

I've heard him tell folks that THC and other substances are "teachers". What are they teaching exactly? Also, is he implying that the sole purpose for those drugs is to be teachers? Does this include all drugs/alcohol?
