			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Confusion to Clarity with Franco DeNicola Part 4 &#8211; Soul and Ego</p>
<p><strong>Question:</strong> How would you explain soul?</p>
<p><strong>Franco: </strong>The soul is actually our higher self that has<br />
chosen to experience itself in a multitude of fragments.<br />
What the soul does is it actually records the experience<br />
through those fragments.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>Each human being on the planet is basically a soul.<br />
There are beings on other planets that are souls also,<br />
and they&#8217;re just having a different experience in a<br />
different playground. This is basically a school and a playground.</p>
<p>As a soul, to add an extra pull to it, the soul has actually split<br />
allowing two halves to go out and play. This is one of the reasons<br />
that the soul is always looking for their other half, there&#8217;s that pull<br />
to meet and look for that soul mate or in essence be a twin soul.</p>
<p>That doesn&#8217;t happen until way later into your evolutionary cycle,<br />
but that magnetic pull or whatever you want to call it, that energetic<br />
<span id="more-1192"></span>pull is there, because it&#8217;s always looking for itself.</p>
<p>Back to the soul part of it, it&#8217;s a recording &#8211; I can&#8217;t say device but its<br />
part of the higher self that has fragmented and it has chosen to<br />
experience these fragments and record each aspect of it.</p>
<p>To give you an analogy, each of the souls is like a computer and<br />
the computer is all connected to a collective soul which is our<br />
collective soul of the planet which plays the part of the server.</p>
<p>Each fragment on this planet is connected to the collective soul<br />
of the planet Earth and that is connected to the cluster of planets,<br />
and so on. I won&#8217;t go much deeper than that because then we&#8217;re<br />
really stretching the realm here.</p>
<p><strong>ML: </strong>If we&#8217;re explaining soul…</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>What would you explain as ego?</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Franco: </strong>The ego is actually a human software program.<br />
Of course, we have a physicality and a computer. The ego<br />
actually is a software program that gives us the density<br />
of this human experience.</p>
<p>The program of the ego was designed so that we could<br />
actually experience a physicality with all the sensory<br />
experiences, and also a program that actually has its<br />
own evolutionary process within each lifetime only,<br />
as a separate identity.</p>
<p>What the ego does is it takes on identity and the body and<br />
the soul actually uses that as a passage to go through.<br />
It knows itself through that. The physicality itself that it<br />
takes on now takes on that identity, being Bob, Bill,<br />
John,  Mary or whatever.</p>
<p>It has the association of what role it plays on the part,<br />
meaning it&#8217;s male or female, or also the roles that are<br />
being played where culture comes through and others.<br />
It&#8217;s a software program in a sense that gives us this<br />
experience on the planet.</p>
<p>The ego is something that you only have while you&#8217;re on<br />
the planet itself. Each lifetime you come here you bring in<br />
a new ego. You reload up with the software, and the software<br />
is on an evolutionary process.</p>
<p>We can get a little more detailed on how the ego has evolved<br />
on itself, but we might want to leave it for another time because<br />
it might get a little lengthy here.</p>
<p><strong>ML: </strong>We&#8217;ll leave it for the program.</p>
<p><strong>Franco: </strong>It does have multi-layers, and it has evolved. What I<br />
can share when we have a little more time to play is how it actually<br />
affects us, how it works, how we can understand it and also to see<br />
how it interacts within itself and how we can get it to spawn out into<br />
different experiences.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s good to have that knowledge so you can actually gain some mastery<br />
at it. We&#8217;re at that point where humanity is ready for that.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Continuing Part 3 of Confusion to Clarity<br />
with Franco DeNicola: Veils and Programming</p>
<p><strong>Question:</strong> Can you explain veils and then programming to people?</p>
<p><strong>Franco: </strong>Veils are layers and layers of programming that exist.</p>
<p>Those veils are made up of belief systems and structure.<br />
They extend back as deep as your DNA. What that does is<br />
basically those veils block the view of your source, of who you are.</p>
<p>For example, some people talk about reaching your light or<br />
engaging light within you, the energy or the source.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s always there, the veils are actually just all those layers<br />
of programming and belief systems and so forth that we&#8217;ve inherited.<br />
We&#8217;ve chosen to have those experiences and use them, but<br />
<span id="more-1190"></span>they actually block us to be able to see.</p>
<p>As the veils dissolve, as we start letting go of old programming<br />
and belief systems and so forth, we actually start to see more<br />
and more the brilliance that we are, and we get to know more<br />
and more who we are at the source level, seeing way beyond<br />
what the physicality is.</p>
<p>The physicality is just a package, the brain is different than a<br />
computer, the soul is who you truly are, but the soul actually<br />
plays the part of recording all of our experiences, so the<br />
soul/higher self is all one.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s that.</p>
<p><strong>ML: </strong>It was good. Sometimes we tend to use words that to some<br />
people they may not have heard it before or to some people<br />
they&#8217;ve heard it but they don&#8217;t quite understand.</p>
<p>We talk about lifting the veils and sometimes that can become a<br />
cliché as opposed to really knowing what the veil is.</p>
<p>Explained as a level of programming or a layer of belief I think<br />
adds a lot of clarity to people in realizing we always have these<br />
built in beliefs. If we can lift the beliefs and the programming<br />
then we are freer to experience the source that we are.</p>
<p><strong>Franco: </strong>Just one more bit of clarification. Each time we<br />
choose to reincarnate and come onto the planet, we do choose<br />
the path that we want to take. That includes the family and all<br />
the souls we&#8217;re going to play with.</p>
<p>Before we come here  we don&#8217;t have an ego program, we don&#8217;t<br />
have a human program, and we actually have just the soul recognition.<br />
That soul recognition, because it doesn&#8217;t have full enlightenment &#8211; meaning<br />
it doesn&#8217;t have full access to the brilliance that it is -  at that point is still<br />
limited to some degree, but again it&#8217;s not limited by the ego programming.</p>
<p>As it chooses to come to the planet basically as it leaves &#8211; I&#8217;m<br />
just using analogies here to explain it because words are<br />
sometimes limited &#8211; but as we choose to come here onto the<br />
planet, the soul is actually exposed to the collective consciousness.</p>
<p>Therefore, it actually picks up the program of the collective<br />
consciousness and then it goes through the family structure,<br />
which picks up the DNA or the programming of the family<br />
structure, and from there it has another layer of programming<br />
that it receives through the growth process where it observes,<br />
and then education adds another layer.</p>
<p>Then the experience of the world, which is again a reflection of<br />
everybody else playing out. There are layers and layers of programming<br />
that each soul experiences to give them the human experience at that level.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In today&#8217;s blog post we continue to Part 2 of<br />
the Confusion to Clarity interview with Franco DeNicola:</p>
<p><strong>Question:</strong> Why is there so much confusion right now<br />
happening on the planet and in people&#8217;s lives?</p>
<p><strong>Franco: </strong>I can say one thing, that <span style="text-decoration: underline;">confusion is actually<br />
a good thing</span>. In saying that, if we allowed the confusion to<br />
actually stop us from getting into a stuck state, it&#8217;s still an<br />
experience, but we choose not to be stuck there in that position<br />
where we are so confused we don&#8217;t know what to do next.</p>
<p>The first step of confusion is a conflict.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a conflict within the ego mind and the fact that it&#8217;s being<br />
exposed to a higher level source, which is your higher self.<br />
The higher source is always communicating to all of us.<br />
As the veils and as we go through the evolutionary cycle<br />
or the enlightenment cycle we tend to get more and more<br />
connected and allow that clarity voice to come through.</p>
<p>It also gets us to modify and adjust the consciousness to a<br />
point where we&#8217;re actually going to another level. Of course,<br />
<span id="more-1188"></span>the ego programming, as powerful as it has become and so<br />
evolved, I mean we can get into the details of that and we<br />
might just play with it a bit.</p>
<p>Because the ego structure has gone to the point where it has<br />
pretty well controlled our whole experience on the planet,<br />
it&#8217;s a program that&#8217;s really not ready to let go that easily.</p>
<p>As that new information and new vibration and energy is<br />
coming through us and clashing, it does cause confusion.<br />
The other part of the confusion also lies in the fact that there<br />
is a lot of information and the fact that humanity is going<br />
through &#8211; what can we call it &#8211; a stirring up of old traumas,<br />
old programs, belief systems, situations that we thought we&#8217;d<br />
completed or taken care of, or that we&#8217;ve experienced in this lifetime.</p>
<p>A lot of times our soul carries with it unfinished business from<br />
past lives. Because of this new vibration we&#8217;re experiencing on the<br />
planet, everything is increasing at a rapid rate, because we are<br />
going through a shift.</p>
<p>The shift is that we are coming to the end of one cycle and we&#8217;re<br />
starting into a new cycle. The new cycle which gets to start after 2012,<br />
will not support most of the way we&#8217;ve been doing and the way<br />
we&#8217;ve been operating in our minds and in our experience.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re going into a state where there is more oneness, there&#8217;s a<br />
reconnection between one another, a reconnection to the animal<br />
kingdom and a reconnection to the planet.</p>
<p>In doing so it actually changes our whole experience and the<br />
whole idea of separation, the idea of us being in survival mode<br />
or playing with fear which uses all types of scenarios will start to dissolve.</p>
<p>If you look at what&#8217;s happening on the planet we have such ingrained<br />
structures right now with all layers, we&#8217;re talking all structures &#8211; financial<br />
structures, religious structures, governmental structures, we have the<br />
medical and all the other different structures and also what we<br />
perceive as a way of life.</p>
<p>This is something that the collective consciousness and also the<br />
individual consciousness, at the ego level, is holding onto as<br />
this is the only way there is and this energy shift that we&#8217;re going<br />
to and this end of the cycle will terminate most of that.</p>
<p>As it&#8217;s doing so, the clarity is not coming through yet what<br />
the next step is for most people and their minds go into a panic<br />
and try to hang onto everything and see the change instead<br />
of seeing the change as something positive and progressive,<br />
it sees change as a threat.</p>
<p>It not only sees it as a threat, it&#8217;s like we can&#8217;t survive without<br />
having this structure. When you actually look at people&#8217;s lives<br />
and tune into their lives or actually just observe most people<br />
can&#8217;t find any peace regardless.</p>
<p>With this going on it&#8217;s actually bringing up stuff. This is where<br />
we&#8217;re talking about letting go of old belief systems and programs<br />
and so forth, and starting to go with the flow.</p>
<p>Meaning you just see things as they unfold, observe your ego mind<br />
and how it works and the programs, letting them go bit by bit and<br />
in doing so it opens you up completely and your whole<br />
experience changes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the next few days I will post the Confusion to<br />
Clarity interview with Franco DeNicola. I know that<br />
many are experiencing Confusion and are seeking Clarity.</p>
<p>Question:  Who are you and why are you here?</p>
<p>Franco:  I&#8217;ve come here specifically for a purpose, but just to give<br />
you a little background basically I&#8217;m a soul that has been<br />
on this planet for many lifetimes. I went through the whole<br />
reincarnation process until I completed my evolutionary cycle.</p>
<p>Meaning I&#8217;ve reached a level of enlightenment and no longer<br />
need to be on this realm and this planet. That was some 200<br />
years ago when I completed my cycles, and shortly after that I<br />
spent some 150 years approximately traveling.</p>
<p>Just to give you an analogy to connect with, it&#8217;s like a student<br />
that goes through grade school then high school and then<br />
graduates at university and at that point feels they&#8217;re free,<br />
<span id="more-1181"></span>they&#8217;re out of the system so now they have full control of their life.</p>
<p>It kind of felt that way when I finished my incarnation processes<br />
here and completed my cycles. At that point, some students take<br />
trips and they go abroad or travel within the states and so forth,<br />
and in my case, I traveled inter-dimensionally.</p>
<p>I spent time going from dimension to dimension, never really<br />
establishing anywhere or taking on another, physicality but<br />
just gaining experience and waiting.</p>
<p>Like any other person that graduates school they sometimes<br />
have this inclination to say I&#8217;d like to go back and teach or<br />
assist, so they would come back to the school environment<br />
and assist. This is what I&#8217;ve done.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve come back to the Earth plane to assist humanity through<br />
the shift. Because I was monitoring the planet and what was<br />
going on, I knew that the time was coming up that we would<br />
be going through the completion of one cycle and the start<br />
of another cycle, which would bring up a tremendous growth<br />
spurt and also a major change in the planet.</p>
<p>Any time there is a major change on the planet there&#8217;s<br />
always some type of guidance and leadership of some sort<br />
required, so that&#8217;s what I&#8217;m doing here.<br />
I&#8217;ve come back and have spent my time doing that.</p>
<p>When I returned here, , having so many lives &#8211; and I<br />
better add another mix to it, since we are partial souls and<br />
we&#8217;re going through evolutionary cycles or through an<br />
enlightenment cycles, when the two halves are completed<br />
you become one again and that was one of the processes,<br />
I went through sometime later after I had left the planet.</p>
<p>My return here to re-establish myself and to really<br />
understand the human experience and condition here,<br />
I did choose to come back in a human body and also take<br />
on a simulated ego program and so forth, so I can actually<br />
have the human experience.</p>
<p>When I did arrive here I, selected a family structure<br />
that would give me a nice experience of density of<br />
some sort, where it allowed me to really understand<br />
humanity again. I came through an Italian family with<br />
very religious background, but when I did return I had<br />
most of the consciousness with me, so it was quite a<br />
re-establishing of myself while I was here.</p>
<p>Here I was coming back to almost Kindergarten again in a<br />
sense,  just to give you an analogy there, and it was a challenge<br />
to get back into it. Part of the agreement I had made with myself<br />
when I chose to come here was that to really get into the<br />
human experience that I would lose 80% of the memory<br />
of all the lives and also the consciousness that I had here<br />
before arriving.</p>
<p>In that way, I was able to maintain a certain level of<br />
consciousness but at the same time, experience the human<br />
condition, the human experience.  At that point, it was the<br />
regular route you go to school, grow up. As you do that you<br />
go into the workforce and through the workforce I had<br />
started a company, which led to two.</p>
<p>At that point, it really allowed me to understand the business<br />
world, to understand what was going on within different<br />
departments of the government and within the corporate structures.</p>
<p>That experience has allowed me to really have a good<br />
appreciation of how things work. As things went along the way,<br />
I also married and had children, which was quite an experience,<br />
because at that point, I also selected a tight structure there to<br />
experience what you can call density or somewhat of a less<br />
evolved consciousness.</p>
<p>That went on for about 25 years before I came about to<br />
actually experience a different aspect of humanity and<br />
then I met the partner I am with right now.</p>
<p>That led to actually a very intimate observation of a rapid<br />
evolutionary cycle to an individual. To be personally watching<br />
it in a very personal and close way as I supported the shift for<br />
her. She&#8217;s still going through the shift, which has allowed<br />
me to really see, even though I took on a simulated ego<br />
structure and a human consciousness, it was not the same<br />
density and caliber as other humans on the planet.</p>
<p>That allowed me to have what I can call a very rounded<br />
experience. Here I am, now the planet is at a point where<br />
the shift has gone to a point where people are much more<br />
open and ready, so I&#8217;ve allowed myself to make myself<br />
known and assist alongside humanity.</p>
<p>I’m not here to be some leader or anything, but to walk<br />
alongside humanity so that we can all move forward.<br />
It&#8217;s very important for what we&#8217;re doing here on the planet,<br />
because the more souls that reconnect with themselves and<br />
move forward, the quicker we make the shift in the planet.</p>
<p>I do carry the view and the program of the new world and<br />
it is absolutely amazing compared to what we&#8217;re experiencing<br />
here. Not to say this is a bad experience, but this is an<br />
experience we&#8217;ve had and repeated cycle after cycle for<br />
so long that now at the soul level we&#8217;ve agreed to move forward.</p>
<p>We can stay in one playground for a long time and stay and play<br />
with the same toys over and over again, but we have a huge<br />
playground to play with and now we&#8217;d like to really expand<br />
and allow ourselves to get to other aspects of our experience,<br />
and reopen ourselves even further, and remember who we truly are.</p>
<p>The information I&#8217;ll be sharing this evening is coming from the<br />
source, the source accessibility is the same as everybody else&#8217;s<br />
because we&#8217;re all one at that source level, I just have a little more<br />
access because of the process I&#8217;ve gone through, and I&#8217;m here<br />
to share it, to play with it, and to assist humanity.</p>
<p>Hopefully, I didn&#8217;t get too carried away.<br />

<p>What is Oneness Consciousness? It goes beyond<br />
your personal and my personal experience.<br />
Oneness Consciousness is the collection of all<br />
that we are. Oneness of all the souls and all<br />
levels of existence.</p>
<p>Imagine a beautiful crystal. It is One. It is<br />
complete. As light shines on it, it fractures<br />
out many beautiful patterns that can be<br />
perceived as unique. Yet, it is all a part of the<br />
Oneness that is the crystal. So too you and<br />
I are one. Our souls are having an individual<br />
experience on this beautiful planet we call Earth.</p>
<p>What is different about Oneness Consciousness<br />
is that it is now taking over the individual soul&#8217;s<br />
<span id="more-1177"></span>experience. Why? Because in order to create a<br />
new level of existence that we call the 5th<br />
dimension, this is now needed. That is why<br />
you may be having difficulty manifesting<br />
what you think you desire. If your ego based<br />
desires assist in the growth of YOU &#8211; the Soul,<br />
and the Collective Consciousness of All, then<br />
it will manifest. If not then it does not matter<br />
how much you visualize or how many affirmations,<br />
you use it will not manifest.</p>
<p>The game has become much bigger now.<br />
That is why you are feeling a pull and a<br />
yearning that can not be ignored. You<br />
have agreed to this. You are a light<br />
worker. Let go of past examples of how<br />
it was or how it was done. You are no<br />
longer bound by rituals that limit. You can<br />
now access light, energy and information at<br />
a new rate that has not been experienced before.</p>
<p>This is Oneness Consciousness and it is<br />
happening now. You are feeling it and<br />
no changes, no healings are taking place<br />
unless it assist the whole &#8211; the Oneness<br />
that we all are.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Does &#8220;How to change the world&#8221; seem like a very overwhelming<br />
question for you? Or you might even be saying, &#8220;I need to<br />
change my life and that&#8217;s enough for me!&#8221;. Guess what?<br />
You are right! Change your life and you change the world.</p>
<p>So then, if changing your life is the key to change the<br />
world then how do you start? There are many gurus<br />
and self-help books out there with wonderful<br />
information to assist you. On this site you will find<br />
some of the experts that I have had the pleasure of<br />
working with. Some parts of their teachings you may<br />
agree with and other parts may not resonate with you<br />
<span id="more-1172"></span>at all. That&#8217;s as it should be. Each guru and teacher<br />
teaches according to his or her life lessons and<br />
experiences. They too go through their life lessons,<br />
their ups and their downs. The difference is that they<br />
do not stay stuck in one area.</p>
<p>Life is movement. To live is to constantly be learning<br />
and changing. This does not mean that there is anything<br />
wrong with you that needs fixing. You are perfectly<br />
the way you were designed to be. Awareness will come<br />
to you that will bring with it new levels of awakening.<br />
Move with it. Let go of the past that says that something<br />
&#8220;needs&#8221; to be done &#8220;this way&#8221; or that &#8220;this is how we do it&#8221;.</p>
<p>Look to gurus and experts for a possible way.<br />
A way that will assist you (I love short cuts) and<br />
empower you. Ultimately you will find your own<br />
way. It is within you. Look to your life. Go within and<br />
ask your higher self for assistance. Take time to sit<br />
quietly and the answer will come.</p>
<p>There are many &#8220;How to change the world&#8221; theories.<br />
That too is as it should be for we are all unique in<br />
our expression and in our experiences. Ultimately<br />
there is really only one way and whether you call<br />
it love or whether you choose to call it peace it<br />
is the same thing. When you radiate love, you<br />
radiate peace. Changing the world starts with you<br />
and me. Don&#8217;t worry about what is happening<br />
half way around the world. As you change you<br />
ripple out and you change the world.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;I need time to process all this.&#8221; &#8220;My body is<br />
processing all the new energies.&#8221; These are<br />
common statements that you hear in the<br />
spiritual and personal growth community.<br />
Living is changing. The pure essence that<br />
you are does not understand &#8220;change&#8221;,<br />
and &#8220;processing&#8221;. These are terms that<br />
are needed for the mind. The mind &#8220;processes&#8221;.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve come to understand that when someone<br />
says &#8220;My body is processing all this&#8221; or &#8220;I need to<br />
process all this&#8221; what you and I really mean to say is,<br />
&#8220;I&#8217;m scared and I don&#8217;t really understand&#8221;.<br />
In reality, there is nothing to process. We make this<br />
up. Processing is an old belief system. When someone<br />
<span id="more-1163"></span>is &#8216;processing&#8221; they are usually hiding behind their truth.<br />
They are afraid to come out and say what is really<br />
going on for them.</p>
<p>Think about it. Does energy need to be processed?<br />
Does the Universe need to be processed? Does the<br />
Light that you are need to be processed? &#8211; NO!<br />
If that is the truth of who you are &#8211; the Universe,<br />
Light, Love &#8211; then why the myth that you need to<br />
process?</p>
<p>Processing is a mind function. What you are really saying<br />
is that you need to re-compartmentalize a belief.<br />
There is no &#8220;processing&#8221; in a healing, in a transformation,<br />
or in a moment of awakening to the power of who you<br />
really are. Love does not require &#8220;processing&#8217;.<br />
With the shift that we are currently undergoing<br />
there is no time to &#8220;process&#8221; anyway. The speed of change<br />
has left that belief behind a long time ago.</p>
<p>Instead of &#8220;processing&#8221; how about something like this:</p>
<p>&#8220;Wow, what just happened/what I just heard/what I just<br />
felt completely changes everything I&#8217;ve believed up until<br />
now. My mind is doing it&#8217;s job of protecting me and I&#8217;m feeling<br />
scared and unsure &#8211; thank you Mind for doing your job.<br />
I am Light, I am Energy and I am Information.<br />
I move forward easily because I know I am part of<br />
All That Is.&#8221;</p>
