July 28, 2011 Thought for the Day
We Expand With You
Your life was meant to be fun.
It is your playground.
And as we see you create and expand,
We expand with you.
It is [a] great joy
When we see how you plunge into this physical world
And experience difficulties, challenges,
And turn it around,
And create desire after desire.
—The Council
Excerpted from The Council’s opening comments to participants of a Manifesting Your Desires meeting on Tuesday, July 19, 2011 in New York City.
(The Council’s opening comments lasted about five minutes and with the exception of a brief greeting, each statement seems to stand on its own as a thought for the day. Beginning July 25, 2011 we are publishing The Council’s opening comments during this session as eight individual thoughts for the day. This post is the fourth of the series.)
July 26, 2011 Thought for the Day
You Are Spirit, On a Journey
What we always wish to let you know
Is that you are so much more than a physical body;
You are spirit
On this journey
In a physical world.

July 25, 2011 Thought for the Day
The Ability to Create Anything You Desire
We would just like to tell you
That before you came into this physical reality,
You knew you had the ability
To create anything you desired.
If you have the desire,
It’s there for you.

Our First Audio Post – A Complete Recorded Council Session on Manifesting What You Desire
A Milestone Post
This post is a milestone for us. It’s our first post to include recorded audio content of one of our sessions with The Council, a group of non-physical spirit guides Cynthia is able to communicate with and channel (the process of letting The Council speak using her voice). For our first audio post we picked one of our favorite sessions with The Council, and we decided to include the complete session so you can get a feel for what these sessions are like.

July 4, 2011 Thought for the Day
When your spirit leaves this physical plane
And returns home,
You experience total forgiveness.
You forgive anyone
Who you feel hurt you
In any way.
And you forgive yourself
For anyone you feel you hurt.
There is the understanding
That it was all pre-arranged,
And everyone performed their role beautifully.
There is only love here.
—The Council
June 25, 2011 Thought for the Day
Do you know that you have created your own body;
The way you look,
Your shape,
The color of your hair and eyes?
This was all part of your joyous decision
To have a physical experience.
You knew you needed a body
To experience this physical plane,
So you began planning your creation before you came.
Your creating began with your choice to incarnate.
—The Council
June 20, 2011 Thought for the Day
Your plan,
When you came into this physical reality,
Was to spread love and light
To everyone you meet.
—The Council
2011-05-30 Thought for Today
The vibration of love
Is the vibration of spirit.
The vibration of love
Is what created you,
And it is your purpose
To bring this vibration of love
Into your physical reality.
—The Council
April 5, 2011 Daily Thought
You are in spirit’s tractor beam.
As your soul comes into this physical dimension,
You know you can never be disconnected from spirit,
And you know you can never lose your way home to spirit.
—The Council
March 17, 2011 Daily Thought
The vibration of love
Is the vibration of spirit.
The vibration of love
Is the creative force.
It is what created you.
Bringing the vibration of love
Into your physical reality
Is the greatest form of expansion.
—The Council
March 12, 2011 Daily Thought
You’ve heard the saying
“Getting there is half the fun”?
You knew that would be the case
When you chose physical reality.
Getting back home to spirit
Is half of the fun.
And being back home in spirit,
Appreciating your expansion
From your journey
Is the other half.
That is exactly what you planned
When you chose physical reality.
—The Council
February 26, 2011 Daily Thought
Three things to remember to have a happy day:

- Keep reaching for a better-feeling thought.
—The Council
2011-02-12
You are here on the physical plane to create.
It is not important what material things you create.
It is not important what opportunities you create.
What is important is seeing your creations manifested in your physical experience.
That will connect you with who you really are.
—The Council
2011-01-22
Do you know
You have chosen the physical
To experience a variety of emotions?
So there is no wrong feeling,
No negative emotion
That you must choose
To ignore or bury.
It is all part of
What you signed up for.
—The Council
2011-01-15
When you leave your physical body
(What you consider Death)
You do not loose any part of who you really are.
You will experience great joy knowing you still exist.
You are still you,
Only light-er.
—The Council 
2011-01-10
Ready, willing, and able,
That was your feeling as you embarked on your physical journey.
—The Council
2011-01-04
When you chose to reincarnate,
You came with the understanding that your purpose (or job)
Would be to bring the vibration of love into physical reality.
—The Council
Welcome
Bob & Cynthia
Welcome to Ask The Council, a blog where you can ask a group of very loving and wise spirit guides a question and (usually) receive an answer, for free. It’s also a place where you can read, and possibly learn from, questions other readers have asked, and the answers they received.
The Council
These spirit guides refer to themselves as The Council, and my wife Cynthia has the unusual ability to communicate with them in a manner similar to the way Esther Hicks communicates with and speaks for the spirit guides, Abraham, and Jane Roberts communicated and spoke for the spirit guide, Seth.
The Council’s Basic Teachings
1) You are much more than you think you are.
You are the energy and vibration of continuously expanding love, intelligence, and joy.
Your physical experience in your physical body and your psychological experience of your personality is a small part of the totality of who you truly are.
If you find this difficult to believe, merely imagining the possibility of this idea from time to time will help you experience more of the wondrous totality of who you really are. As the saying goes: try it, you’ll like it.
2) You are the creator of all that you experience.
Our post, What About This Idea That We Create Whatever We Desire, offers insights into this idea and the next.
3) Manifesting your desires is what it’s all about
Every experience of something unwanted instantly communicates to the totality of who you are a desire for what’s wanted instead.
Who you really are is such a powerful creator that everything you desire instantly becomes real in a non-physical reality.
These non-physical creations are at least as real as physical creations. From a broader point of view they are more real because every physical creation was first a non-physical creation inspired by desire.
If you ever wondered what life is really all about, it’s about the joy of manifesting your non-physical creations into your physical experience.
4) Expansion is a given.
Every experience, whether you consider it positive or negative, brings with it your expansion and the expansion of all that is.
Finding Your Way Around the Blog
Home Page
The left-hand column on the Home page contain a long chronological series of posts with the most recent on top. Each post begins with a title. Clicking on a post title will take you to a blog page dedicated to that particular post. The Thought for the Day posts use the post publication date as its title.

The footer section of each post identifies the date the post was published, the Categories the post has been assigned to, the keyword/keyphrase Tags assigned to the post, and a Comment link. If readers comments on a post, the Comments link will indicate the number of comments. If a post has no comments yet, the Comment link text appears as “Leave a Comment”.
Clicking on the Comments link takes you to a Comment text box on a post page dedicated to that post. Here you can type a comment in the text box and click the Post Comment button to have your comment displayed just below the text box. If you are replying to someone else’s comment, your comment will appear indented underneath the comment you are replying to.
At the bottom of the left column on the Home page is a ‘Previous Entries’ link that will take you to a page with a list of earlier posts.
Thought for the Day
In addition to answering readers’ questions, The Council began sharing Thoughts for the Day in December 2010. These brief inspirational sayings offer a daily spiritual point of view that can help you:
- Remember that you are divine spirit, a part of which is experiencing physical existence from the point of view of your physical body.
- Remember why you chose to experience life in a physical body.
- Remember how to manifest the life you desire.
Longer Posts
Longer posts that answer readers’ questions offer a similar spiritual point of view and an opportunity to consider specific issues in more depth. Using the ‘Questions & Answers’ link in the navigation bar (top right of the Home page) is an easy way to display a list of introductions to just our longer posts. Clicking on the post title will take you to the post page where you can read the rest of the post.
