There is a large and growing number of channels in our society today.  It seems that any kind of information can be channeled.  As with most other sources of information, this source can produce any kind of information from completely useless babble to apparently supreme or advanced knowledge, in some cases.   Most channels are said to be channeling another expression of themselves, either in the future or past.  Some claim to be used as a living communications device between humans and aliens, and not otherwise connected with the aliens.  There are various sources of channeled information - the information received in this way must be judged for itself.   Consider, for example, the most common means of establishing the "inner plane" or channel connection: meditation.  This is the method most recommended both by channelers and the given channeled source.  Meditation is... a means of stilling the mind so that ordinary thinking faculties are temporarily vetoed; this provisional silence of the otherwise constant "interior monologue" is the means whereby the meditator bypasses the conditioning screen of (culturally programmed) concept, in so doing becoming ideally receptive to holistic dimensions otherwise recessed into the unconscious beyond the focus of ordinary "notice".   Once in this receptive state, other entities are able to communicate through the mediator's body functions.  This can result in "automatic writing" or "charging".  Automatic writing is the process whereby an entity controls the fingers of hands placed over a keyboard to type out information.  Charging is where the mediator's mouth is used to issue forth-another voice to communicate verbally.   The main contact that has been made with the Essessani is through contact with an entity known as Bashar, an entity who seemed to combine a Seth-like holistic awareness with an extraordinary sense of humor.  What follows is an extract of some of the dialogue characteristic of this interaction: "Many individuals are now experiencing some transformation in the throat chakra.  It may transfer into your sinus area as well."  Question: "Is this connected with my channeling?"  Answer: "Yes, for there is the opening in that area for all of you.  The strengthening of the throat chakra.with the balancing of the area of intention in the solar plexus.   What you call the pituitary gland, the pineal, and idea of the base of your brain will form a trinary structure that will create an apex at your crown chakra.  When you become allowing and linked in that way and sensitive to the vibration of your planetary force, 7.5 cps, you can become in touch with all other mentality on your planet, and extend your senses out the top of your head in the crown chakra and be in contact with all other levels of your consciousness as well.   It forms an energy pyramid that allows communication from all levels in your being, and extensions in your society.  You cannot receive unless this is open.  Your imagination will assist in developing this.  Any time you do allow yourself to be conscious, you are receiving information, those sensors are functioning together and are open.  When you are tuned to that frequency, you receive a similar frequency.
