# Authenticity > Authenticity is conviction and commitment to be yourself to stop trying to fit into what society says you should be and to allow the unique expression you were designed to be. Being yourself in thought word and action radiates a vibrational frequency that allows other individuals to see by example that they can also choose to be who they know they are in their heart. - Canonical: https://sassani.app/topic/authenticity # Authenticity *A clear spring stays distinct beside several reflected but broken surface patterns* Across the sessions that name this subject, authenticity is presented as conviction and commitment to be yourself — to stop trying to fit into what society's structures say you should be, and to allow the unique expression you were designed to be. The framing is not self-improvement; it is the recognition that the only way to really be of service to your entire society is to finally, after many eons of trying to be other than what you are, allow yourself to be who you actually are. > — Comet Commitment Conviction Monologue (text), [Source](https://sassani.app/source-transmissions/comet-commitment-conviction-monologue) ## Being yourself is the gift to the whole The argument the comet monologue makes is structural rather than sentimental: each individual is a unique expression of the infinite, and that uniqueness is the whole point of the design. When each component, each individual of the whole, has the conviction and the commitment to be their full self, the entire picture can be supported more easily, more synchronistically, more creatively, and effortlessly. From this it follows that trying to be something you are not does not support the whole in a harmonious way — it actually works against it, and it is exceedingly exhausting for you besides, because resisting the natural self wears you down. > — Earth Essassani Sirius Frequency Changes Bashar Nexus Point (text), [Source](https://sassani.app/source-transmissions/earth-essassani-sirius-frequency-changes-bashar-nexus-point) The nexus-point session uses the image of a multidimensional crystal: each and every one of you is a unique facet of that crystal, and only by being your true facet, your true shape, do you actually support the whole. Trying to be a different facet than yours is what tires you out; the relief of stopping that effort is the relief of authenticity itself. > — Earth Essassani Sirius Frequency Changes Bashar Nexus Point (text), [Source](https://sassani.app/source-transmissions/earth-essassani-sirius-frequency-changes-bashar-nexus-point) ## The mechanism is example, not persuasion How does being yourself help anyone else? The monologue's answer is that being yourself in thought, word, and action radiates a vibrational frequency into your reality that allows other individuals to see, by example, the idea that they themselves can also choose to be who they know they are in their heart of hearts. The mechanism is example, not persuasion; another person's authenticity is permission for yours. And it lets you drop the baggage — the things that do not belong in your life, that are not of your frequency, that are only expressions of the resistance to your natural self. > — Comet Commitment Conviction Monologue (text), [Source](https://sassani.app/source-transmissions/comet-commitment-conviction-monologue) The introducing-the-association session phrases the same idea from the side of service: the service you provide by being exactly who you are is what spurs on the universe you are unfolding. Self-love, in that framing, is not separate from being authentic — perceiving yourself first, exactly as you are, is what lets the universe you create reflect that same degree of momentum. > — Introducing The Association (qa-5), [Source](https://sassani.app/source-transmissions/introducing-the-association) ## Practical implications Treat being yourself as the contribution, not as something you need to justify. The transcripts locate the value of authenticity in the structural fact that you are a unique facet; the whole only works when each facet is its own shape. > — Earth Essassani Sirius Frequency Changes Bashar Nexus Point (text), [Source](https://sassani.app/source-transmissions/earth-essassani-sirius-frequency-changes-bashar-nexus-point) Stop resisting the natural self. Resistance to what you actually are is framed as the source of the exhaustion, not as evidence that you need to become something else. Allowing yourself to flow in an effortless, relaxing way is itself the relief. > — Earth Essassani Sirius Frequency Changes Bashar Nexus Point (text), [Source](https://sassani.app/source-transmissions/earth-essassani-sirius-frequency-changes-bashar-nexus-point) Let your example be the offer to others. You cannot force anyone to be themselves; you can only radiate the frequency of being yourself so that others can see by example that the option exists for them. > — Comet Commitment Conviction Monologue (text), [Source](https://sassani.app/source-transmissions/comet-commitment-conviction-monologue) Drop what does not belong to you. The baggage — definitions, roles, and borrowings that are not of your frequency — is what authenticity sheds; what remains is the path of least resistance to your natural self. > — Comet Commitment Conviction Monologue (text), [Source](https://sassani.app/source-transmissions/comet-commitment-conviction-monologue) These implications are metaphysical framing for an inner orientation. They do not instruct the learner to disregard ordinary responsibilities, relationships, or boundaries; they ask the learner to examine what is actually theirs versus what was borrowed to fit a structure, and to choose from what is genuinely their own. ## Representative passages The greatest gift you can give to your world is to be yourself. For each and every one of you was designed, in a sense, by the infinite, in a particular way. And that each and every one of you is a unique expression is the whole point to allowing the whole to be supported.— Bashar, Each and every one of you is a unique facet of the multidimensional crystal of creation. And by only being your true facet, your true shape, do you thus actually support the whole. Trying to be something you're not does not support the whole idea in a harmonious way and it is exceedingly exhausting for you to be something you are not, to resist the natural self, tires you out, wears you down.— Bashar, The universe you are unfolding will contain that same degree of momentum spurred on by your own love of all that is, and the service that you provide by being exactly who you are.— Bashar, ## Related - [Oneness & Individuality](https://sassani.app/topic/oneness-and-individuality) - [Conviction](https://sassani.app/topic/conviction) - [Co-Creation](https://sassani.app/topic/co-creation) Markdown twin of https://sassani.app/topic/authenticity.
