What I’m about to say is for me really important:
Vasanas or core issues plus the counterproductive behavior patterns they give rise to are the major obstacle to having the world work.
OK, OK, WE are the major obstacle to the world working. It couldn’t be any other way. I agree.
But I’d like to focus on what, the removal of which from our lives, would have our lives work. And we’re not going to remove ourselves.
I want an effective answer to removing the obstacles to enlightenment that a mix of populations around the globe can understand and draw on.
The removal of our core issues and any related and counterproductive behavior patterns is just such an effective, understandable, and global approach to removing the prime obstacles to enlightenment. And ultimately Ascension.
Vasanas and patterns are the reason our relationships don’t work.
They’re behind every war that was ever fought.
Everything that doesn’t work can be traced back to a triggered vasana or the counterproductive behavior patterns it gave rise to, in my opinion.

What’s going to face us as lightworkers when the major events start popping is that we’re going to have the vasanas of large sections of the population going off like Roman candles. Unworthiness, doubt, fear, etc.
Chances are we’ll be frontline in addressing frightened people, reassuring them, and handling the work that arises out of this for society.
I remember what Michael said:
“If no [lightworker] steps forward into [leadership] then there is a massive vacuum because many of the billions upon your planet have not yet learned, adapted and integrated the new tools – the fullness of this new energy.
“So [when non-lightworkers] are assigned … or try to step up … to create and to take the leadership role, they do not have the training and insight to do it in a way that is achievable. … So there is a lack, a vacuum of leadership.
“Now, who, upon this wondrous planet, has been hiding in the shadows or edging out, or in the limelight and is ready? … Who has been diligent and practiced patience and fortitude and stamina, and anchored the divine qualities? Who is it that is prepared to do this? Well, it is the lightworkers.” (1)
How to work with a vasana?
Listen to another for long periods of time, until they have a thorough sense of having been heard.
Put our desires aside and be there for another. No, it doesn’t matter that we’re not interested in the subject they want to discuss because it isn’t about us. The other person needs to be heard.
Put clever answers aside and our felt need to contribute? Can we just be present for another in whatever state they may be in?
The Buddha said: “Do only wholesome actions; refrain from unwholesome actions; and purify the mind.
Eradicating vasanas is purifying the mind.
Reparenting ourselves around our counterproductive behavior patterns is refraining from unwholesome action and doing only wholesome action.
The Mother puts the dharmic element succinctly: If the behavior pattern is not of love, don’t act on it.
For myself, I feel the need to dream big right now. To dream that it might be possible to address the vasanas of whole societies or speed up the processing of our core issues at the level of society. I’m dreaming into that reality, drawing on the creative power of thought in the Fifth Dimension.
Eradicating our vasanas and related behavior patterns is an action of general and global import – probably the most needed and valuable contribution we can make in a time when the need is great for lightworker leaders who won’t have vasanas erupting (I still do).
When our vasanas and patterns are eradicated, we exist as an open space in which love, peace, and bliss can appear. I can’t claim to have had the full experience of that. (2) Very far from it. But the lesser experiences I’ve had also point in that direction.
Also relevant: We’re about to meet people (our star family) whose intelligence, sensitivity, and ability to love exceed anything we can imagine. (3) The greatest share of education will lie with us until Ascension burns away our mental and emotional “seeds” of future action – that is, our vasanas.
Think of the growth work we do before then as us getting up to speed, cranking the engine, priming the pump. We’re aiming for as many people as possible ascending. And, we’ll be meeting our star neighbors in the process. Lightworkers will almost assuredly be the ones who’ll inspire, empower, and lead terrestrials out of the desert, if it proves possible, of their remaining issues and patterns.
In sum: Eradication of the vasanas and the counterproductive patterns they give rise to, in my opinion, removes the chief obstacle to having the world work and clears the way for the widest possible Ascension.
