Who Am I? Where Am I From? And What Is My Purpose?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Kristie, who starts by asking, who am I and where am I from?
The Council says Kristie is a wonderful spirit made of love and light who’s chosen a journey into a reality she wishes to create. You have a physical body to get around in and you create a personality in this reality. When you return to spirit at the end of your physical life, the body falls away and the personality stays with you so you can learn from it and share what you’ve learned with other spirits.
The Council says you’re from the great source; the energy that manifests into many things. You’re from many planets and many lifetimes. You’re part of the whole and you’re never alone. And you are part of the collective unconscious from spirit into this humanity.
Kristie asks if she’s found her mission in life yet. The Council says your true mission is to take whatever situation you find yourself in and make it happy. When you focus on being happy the vibration within you changes, the vibration around you changes, and you bring this vibration into this whole reality.
The Council says at one point before coming into this reality it was important for Kristie to have family and to learn how to understand people with difficulties. You wanted to create difficulties in trusting and believing in people to inspire the souls around you to understand you better. Even though you have doubts about how you’re treated and what people say about you, you wanted to take the chance and reach out to other people beyond these doubts and trust issues, even if some of these people don’t act in a way you appreciate or show you understanding.
If Kristie is unable to reach beyond her doubts and help others, then she’ll bring in the lesson of loneliness to deal with. Maybe she wouldn’t have many friends or not be close to her family. What would life be like when you feel lonely? And as you learn from this lesson, do you want to change it? Or do you want to continue on the path of loneliness for the rest of this lifetime to learn more from this and understand other people who are introverted and lonely?
There are many lessons and many obstacles that you planned so you could transform them and take a leap up the spiritual ladder and bring more love into yourself.
You wanted to learn about trust and The Council asks Kristie to look at these trust issues in her life. Have you learned to trust people? Are you afraid of what people say? or wonder if they’re honest? or if they’ll treat you right? You wanted to get past these trust issues so you could reach out and be there for other people.
Kristie was also very interested in history in her past lives and The Council says if she hasn’t looked into this by now, they suggest she read books and watch movies on ancient civilizations. She’ll derive a lot of happiness from this. You’ll remember things from some of your past lives, and some of this research will stimulate your memory and give you ideas of what directions you wish to go in now.
Kristie asks when she’ll begin to achieve her life purpose. The Council says she’ll begin right now because she has enough information from this post to start looking at how she’s lived her life, how she’s handled things, and the direction she wanted her life to go.
Kristie says today was a particularly rough and uncomfortable day. The Council says when you find you’re in one of these rough days, recognize that you’ve created this situation and ask yourself what you’re learning from it? What is it trying to teach you? What’s your feeling about it? Does it remind you of something? What’s the opposite of this feeling and then focus on that when you’re depressed or you’re having a difficult day. Identify your thoughts and feelings and then reach for a lighter thought.
The Council realizes it’s difficult to choose loving thoughts when you’re feeling down. Once you can identify the feeling and reach for its opposite, imagine what it would be like to think and feel better. This can shift your perspective and bring in love.
The Council closes by saying the peace Kristie is looking for is within her. It’s her job to look for it, find it, and bring it out. And they remind her again she’s the love and light of her spirit.
Listen to the entire 10-minute session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Kristie and the rest of us, and let us know what you feel about it.

Welcome
Bob & Cynthia
Welcome to Ask The Council, a blog where you can ask a group of loving and wise spirit guides a question and get an answer, for free. You can also contact us for a paid private phone session with The Council, and you can read the questions other readers have asked and the answers they’ve received. Other posts contain quotations from The Council that we hope you find inspiring, uplifting, and educational.
Ask The Council a Question
If there’s a question you’ve been thinking about and you’re curious how The Council might answer it, we encourage you to either use the blog’s Comments feature to ask your question, or contact us for a private phone session. You can click here to go to the ‘Let us know what you think about this post, or ask The Council a question’ section of this Welcome post and type your question there or you can type your question in the same section at the bottom of any post that inspires you to ask a question or leave a comment.
Since the blog is currently a project we do in our spare time it can take a while for us to do a session with The Council on a question and then publish a post on the session. Depending on the question and the session it can sometimes take weeks after a question is asked to publish a post with The Council’s answer. Please be patient.
The Council
Cynthia is able to communicate with a group of five non-physical spirit guides 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. I (Bob) basically interview The Council as they speak through Cynthia during what we refer to as a session. Sessions generally last 5-15 minutes and are usually audio recorded. During the session Cynthia is aware of what The Council is saying and she also receives visual impressions and other types of telepathic communication from them.
The Council’s Basic Guidance
Since we began these sessions with The Council around 2009 they consistently emphasize a few basic ideas that we attempt to summarize here:
1) You are an eternal spiritual being in a physical body.
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.
Let yourself imagine from time to time what it might feel like to experience more of the wondrous totality of who you really are, and don’t be surprised if you are able to experience this more often.
2) You are the creator of all that you experience.
As you open to the possibility your true nature is greater than you ordinarily perceive, it becomes easier to consider the possibility that this expanded you is truly the creator of everything that you experience.
If you’re used to thinking of yourself in a more limited sense, the idea that you are the creator of your experience may be difficult to understand. Our post, What About This Idea That We Create Whatever We Desire, offers insights into this idea.
3) You are here to expand the love you are into physical reality.
You chose, as a spiritual being, to come into this physical reality to experience the joy of expanding the love you are as a spiritual being, into this physical reality. This is your purpose for being here.

Ask The Council 
Hi Cynthia, Bob & The Council,
Thank you for asking and answering these questions. I guess I am perplexed about the where am I from answer. I thought everyone was from the Great Source, originally anyways. I guess I was thinking I’d get a more specific answer like a previous poster who was from the Pleiades.
The answers were great and gave me lots to ponder. Thank you again!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Kristi
