Channel: A.S.
My dearest brothers and sisters,
This is Hakann speaking. I greet you in peace and love.
What does the term “enlightenment” mean?
Well, let’s say that John over here believes that enlightenment means: “freedom from the cycle of rebirth.” Most likely John thinks that this is the sole definition of enlightenment, and John thinks that everyone shares his definition (except maybe a few people who are simply wrong).
However, let’s say Anna believes that enlightenment means something else, such as say “the attainment of the natural state.” And likely Anna believes that this is the sole definition of enlightenment.
And let’s say Julianne believes that enlightenment means “liberation from suffering.” And likely she believes that this is the sole definition of enlightenment.
And then there are a bunch of other people having yet other definitions, such as:
“a state of complete inner peace”
“embodying the knowledge that you’re a reincarnating soul, and not just a body and a brain.”
“full awareness of reality”
“the ability to see through illusions”
“a state of complete integration, including of the shadow”
“an end of identification”
“embodying the principle that all is one, and accepting everything”
“non-resistance to everything”
“nonduality (no separation between observer and the observed)”
“integration of the truth of no-self”
So here you have the curious situation that a whole lot of people use one term to refer to slightly different things. They’re all convinced that everyone else agrees with their personal definition, when in reality those other people think that everyone else agrees with THEIR personal definition.
Sometimes it’s fine to use spiritual terms to point to “something roughly over there.” Sometimes that’s completely fine, and being very precise would just mean wasting words.
However, if you’re having precise discussions about enlightenment or other spiritual terms, it becomes important to actually share your definition of the terms with other people. Otherwise you might end up talking past each other.
Even if you’re convinced that you have the sole true definition of enlightenment, it can still prevent miscommunications if you just state your definition whenever you’re having an in-depth discussion about enlightenment. Because even if others have a wrong definition in mind, well, why not help them by sharing your definition with them?
Additionally, if you’re intellectually honest and you study a lot of enlightened people, you might find that it’s not actually that easy to give a definition for enlightenment.
If you give me your definition of enlightenment, I can probably point to someone who fits your definition but that most people wouldn’t agree is enlightened; or I can point to someone who most people would say is enlightened yet doesn’t fit your definition.
And if your definition is so unmeasurable or unfalsifiable that I can’t do this, then your definition isn’t very useful.
If you have a definition of enlightenment that can’t be practically checked (e.g. freedom from the cycle of rebirth), then most likely you still believe that this person is enlightened and that person isn’t, even though you can’t know that via your own definition.
In that case, what you’re likely doing is publicly stating that the definition of enlightenment is such and such, but then you actually evaluate others by whether you personally feel they’re enlightened. Or by whether they satisfy a few specific, measurable criteria. And then you actually have a measurable definition for enlightenment — but it’s one that doesn’t sound very good or is easy to criticize, and so you hide behind a better-sounding, more formal definition.
And it’s more complicated by the fact that unenlightened people are often worse than they think at judging whether another person is enlightened.
Part of the confusion is that enlightenment is thought of as that stage you reach after a lot of spiritual growth. However, spiritual growth is an imprecisely defined term itself.
People use the term “spiritual growth” as if it’s a one-dimensional path, where you first do this, then you encounter that, then you do these five things, and then you’re enlightened.
It’s more accurate to think of spiritual growth as having sub-categories. Namely: there’s how loving someone is, there’s someone’s skill at seeing things as they really are, how much spiritual knowledge someone has, how compassionate they are, how much peace of mind they have, how many so-called supernatural abilities they have, how pleasant their energy is, how much self-insight they have, et cetera.
And if you map all those categories onto a single scale called “spiritual growth”, and then you create another imprecise term on top of that called “enlightenment” for a certain stage of “spiritual growth”… then you can see the confusion.
This doesn’t mean that you need to stop using these terms. Sometimes they’re accurate enough, and being very precise would just be inefficient.
However this means that you should be aware that for example spiritual growth has sub-categories, and that not everyone who uses the term “spiritually advanced” means the same thing.
Ideally you’d have a whole bunch of terms that describe specific forms of spiritual attainment, and you wouldn’t just use one term “enlightenment” to refer to anyone who is exceptionally good in any spiritual subcategory.
Next up: some people think that all Pleiadians are the equivalent of Earth ascended masters. However Tunia recently said that we’re not. So, which is true?
Well, in some subcategories of spirituality, even the average Pleiadian is very advanced. The average Pleiadian is loving, has peace of mind and has a pleasant energy. Most likely you would love to interact with them.
Whereas in some subcategories of spirituality, even advanced Pleiadians are not at the level of Earth ascended masters.
Although obviously Pleiadians are individuals, in general you can have a pretty good idea of what we’re are like just by thinking how Earth humans would be if they were raised in a safe, loving, abundant, high-tech, high-information, cloistered, almost ivory-tower like environment with little external pressure on them to grow and develop.
Advanced Pleiadians are people who were raised in that environment and who chose to spend a lot of time meditating, introspecting and becoming very good and experienced at some occupation.
Some of you think: “you Pleiadians have spaceships and psychic abilities and are loving, therefore you must be spiritually advanced, therefore you must be wise enough that you’re always making the right decisions, including when it comes to when you’ll intervene or land.”
However “spiritual advancement” is an imprecise term. In reality we’re very advanced in some areas, and not so much in others.
I’ve come to believe that us Pleiadians are simply not very spiritually advanced in the subcategory of understanding what life is like on harsh worlds (such as Earth).
Us Pleiadians are like houses with a very strong foundation (because we were raised with love, safety and abundance). And if something painful happens to us (say, our father dies), then that’s like a broken window.
That broken window is painful but also not that big of a deal. We just repair the window, by getting some healing, doing some observation, working through the emotions, et cetera.
Hence many Pleiadians have the attitude that intervention / landing isn’t yet necessary. Instead we’ll just give you some subtle covert help, some channeled messages filled with love and maybe a few meditation techniques. And then you can fix your own broken window, right? Just meditate. Just take productive action.
However, Earth humans aren’t like houses with a very strong foundation that happen to have a broken window. Instead many of you have never had a strong foundation, because you’ve never been raised in love and safety and abundance.
And a person who’s always had a strong foundation yet who’s had a window broken, just fundamentally doesn’t understand what life is like for a person who’s never had a proper foundation. Those two things are just fundamentally incomparable.
Yes, theoretically people can repair their own foundations, but that requires a lot of time, energy, resources, etc. Us Pleiadians are used to having those, but many of you don’t. So it’s like some of you have a wound that just keeps bleeding.
This makes it profoundly unfair for many Pleiadians to have the attitude that you should just repair your own windows — because that’s a fundamental misdiagnosis of what’s actually going on.
So, I think there’s a solid argument to be made for the view that we should just intervene or land already.
That said, there genuinely are valid arguments for waiting too.
I’ve changed my mind and nowadays if I was in charge, I think I’d order an immediate intervention / landing by us galactics. However, this isn’t a black-and-white situation, and I wouldn’t say that the plan of Ashtar’s council to only intervene / land at the end of this year is wrong. It’s a different choice, it’s one that I would no longer make, but that doesn’t mean it’s wrong.
Arguments in favor of and against a short-term intervention can’t be mapped on a one-dimensional scale. So it’s not like a financial calculation where the gains are in dollars, and the losses are in dollars, and you can easily compare them.
Instead, the arguments in favor of and against a short-term intervention are so different, they’re in such different units, that it’s hard to compare them. So it’s hard to say that one position is simply objectively wrong. (If you’re curious about the arguments against a short-term intervention, see previous message “Ashtar: Our new commitment”.)
Next up: even your name is an imprecise term. It’s a useful shorthand, but technically it refers to a unified “person” that doesn’t actually exist.
Instead, you’re a reincarnating soul. And your current incarnation (what you’re experiencing) is a bundle of body parts, biological processes, habits, emotions, thoughts, etc. But this is really more of a (changing) bundle than it is one unified “person.”
This is the realization of “no-self”: that if you look inside, you’ll find that there is no “person” there, there’s just a combination of biological processes, etc.
On Earth sometimes the analogy is used that if you take apart a chariot, then there is nothing left. There is no “chariot” that remains after you remove the wheels, the poles, the seat, etc.
This can help make you much less fearful — because if there’s no person, then what is there to worry about?
Who is there to protect?
Who is the one that needs to attain wealth and status?
Who is the person that must make sure others like them?
Who is the person that dies after 90 years?
Now yes sure, even if you integrate the realization of “no self”, there can still be an experience of pain afterwards. It’s just that there’s no “person” there that is suffering. There can be pain; there is no “oh no, I’ll be in this much pain forever, I can’t take it, why does this always happen to me?”
And yes, of course it’s fundamentally silly that I used the word “you” while arguing that you don’t really exist (other than as a bundle of biological processes etc). However, as we discussed, imprecise terms like “you” are still useful. It’s not really practical to communicate without ever referring to people or using “I” and “you.”
Sure, you could try to use other terms and descriptions instead of saying “I.” But if you want to communicate with any level of efficiency, most likely you’d just create a different, less efficient term that’s ultimately still imprecise. And you wouldn’t really gain anything.
So feel free to keep using spiritual term shorthands. They’re efficient. It’s just good to keep in mind that spiritual attainment has sub-categories, and to clearly define your terms whenever you’re having an in-depth discussion.
So. I hope that was useful.
With all my love,
Your star brother,
A bundle of biological processes etc referred to as “Hakann”

Thank you Hakann for your understanding of life on Earth!
I finally gave up the formal reply to this message in order to save some time and energy, hoping that it would benefit the design progress of the society components.
My attitude towards intervention is not consistent, I compare it to a train passing through a series of stations. When the train enters a station, intervention is more appropriate, such as at station 2024Q1 or 2025Q4, while intervention between two stations is less appropriate.
It seems that the world has entered a new stage in 2026Q1, but I’m not sure if the train has left the station. Perhaps a big fish is about to enter the fishing net, so it would be a pity to pull up the net now, but I find it difficult to comment, and it may take a few months to make a judgment.
Interesting perspective, LCX. This does make sense too, for me. When you miss the right climax point for the plot twist you need to create another arc of suspense.
I think we just proved we don’t share even the same definition of sharing a definition.
Well, I just dropped in to see what condition my definition… was in.
“Hakann”, this all sounds like another attempt to talk about the problem instead of solving it. You rightly noted that people are confused by terminology, but your solution is simply “linguistic advice.” Mathematics and physics unite people of different cultures precisely because there is no room for interpretation. Constants or laws of thermodynamics work the same for everyone, regardless of their “level of awareness.” If “ascension” or “enlightenment” are real processes, then they must have physical parameters: a change in the frequency characteristics of a field, a phase transition in biological matter, or a restructuring of neural connections at the quantum level. Instead of discussing how Anna or John understand words, why not provide a clear definition in units of measurement? If you, the true Pleiadians, possess the technology for interstellar travel, then your “spirituality” is simply applied physics of the highest order. The ball is in your court. While you engage in “empty philosophy,” humanity continues to drown in demagoguery. Describe the mechanics of the process, and then the sophistry will disappear. Otherwise, it looks less like helping an older brother and more like a philologist’s lecture in a burning house.
Our langage probably does not allow for such detailed explanation though.
They don’t even attempt to provide a detailed explanation of “enlightenment” and “ascension.” If “Tunia” claims we’re not much different from them, then we share a common logical foundation. UFO reverse engineering proves that their technologies operate in our dimension (at least partially). Therefore, “ascension” and “enlightenment” are not just esoteric terms, but also specific physical processes: either a phase transition of matter, a change in the frequency characteristics of a field, or manipulation of the informational entropy of consciousness. Citing “imperfections of language” in 2026, while having before our eyes examples of mathematical descriptions of even black holes, is either intellectual laziness or a deliberate avoidance of specifics. For now, all these texts are merely a collection of psychological and philosophical sophistry with an esoteric-ufological slant, which anyone with a high school or higher education could write or invent. In his “message,” Hakann himself criticizes people for their many different definitions of “ascension” and “enlightenment,” but he doesn’t provide any specific information. In that case, this text is simply “wasting the air.”
My understanding is that the point of the message was as the title suggests : an advice to define our terms more often when we engage in deep convo, it was not necessarily a message intended to define those terms for us.
This is a very convenient way to ‘downgrade’ the message to avoid answering difficult questions. Hakann spends half his text mocking people for their ‘unmeasurable’ and ‘unfalsifiable’ definitions, but offers no measurable metrics himself. Logic dictates that if he points out a flaw in a system, he should offer a more sophisticated alternative.
If a supposedly advanced mind criticizes human definitions for being ‘not very useful’ but then offers only ‘conversation advice’ without providing the physical or mathematical reality underlying these processes, it only confirms my point: this is pure sophistry. If UFOs are real and material, then ‘ascension’ is also a physical process. Until this gap is bridged with a concrete framework, these terms will remain a set of man-made metaphors. The ‘spirituality’ of a cosmic civilization cannot be separated from its physics.
And anyway, Hakann apparently has nothing better to do than give us advice on how to clarify terms. Truly, a vital mission for a ‘Space Linguist
Funny (yet so common – and that was the point this message was adressing in my eyes) how our perspectives on the same reading can differ so much.
In my eyes, Hakann was not mocking anyone, he suggested that it is best to sometimes make sure we actually understand each others. He also suggested a number of differerent meanings, as references, implying that one human word cannot convey the full perspectives, which was actually the point of the message.
There is not one aboslute definition, but there is value in getting to understand each others. That’s how I understood the message.
Not everything can be put in equations, I think that one, for once, is legit, Einstein said : “Life is not an equation to resolve but a mistery to be lived” (paraphrasing).
I rest my case.
It’s ironic that you quote Einstein to dismiss equations. First, Einstein never said that—it’s a common internet misquote. In reality, Einstein’s entire life was dedicated to the belief that the universe is an equation (Unified Field Theory) and that God does not play dice with the universe.
You say ‘not everything can be put in equations,’ but that is exactly what every major scientific leap has done—from gravity to quantum entanglement. If ‘ascension’ is a real process affecting biological life and matter, it must have physical parameters.
Hakann’s message claims that human definitions are ‘not very useful’ because they are unmeasurable. My point stands: by offering only more vague words instead of the underlying physics, he is doing exactly what he criticizes.
“Caramba, encore raté”.
(famous french quote from Tintin) 🙂
Those Einstein quotes are almost never accurate 🙂
“…when your fundamental „spiritual faculties“ are all infiltrated by hidden darkness which twists every thought, every strive to align to the Light, the concept of Light been fundamentally twisted in the subconscious, misleading concepts everywhere,..
Very perceptively conceived and put. Do “they” understand how we are in many double binds here on Earth? That the psychological manipulation we’ve been under is not Normal soul evolutionary growth? Perhaps some, but to really understand it you have to be here. This inversion of reality, as Icke calls it, is quite the edifice of artifice. It is made mostly of fear, but also sorrow and disappointment — and postponement. Endless postponement.
This was supposed to be a reply to Gwydyon below.
When you say you have changed your mind about ‘intervention/landing’ – that implies separating a fixed part of you and a changeable part of you, the ‘mind’.
I would define ‘You’ as the part that does not change, but around which all changes inevitably take place. It’s simultaneously very precise and absolutely untangible, like ‘Source’.
It’s not unfair that some Pleiadians have the attitude that we should repair our own windows. We probably should. But SOME of them might have this attitude because they’ve experienced the soul growth of fixing your own window while others may have it out of pure ‘misdiagnosis’ as you called.
The Earth experiment is about fixing this misdiagnosis on a personal level, about no part of Source being left behind as an ignorant ‘Marie Antoniette’. Understand – walking away from this experience without understanding what has to be understood, for earthlings and galactics alike, will only postpone it.
Thanks Hakaan and A.S.
I hope we can all be where we need to be…. imminently.
Too much suffering.
It has gone on long enough.
My love to all. 🙏
Who’s Hakaan?
A Pleiadian commander in Ashtar command fleet who gave this message. Maybe not exactly a commander, a bit below, I’m not sure.
A spiritual attainment sub category that Pleiadians (at least the ones from this channel) really excel at is honesty/authenticity.
It creates a connection.
A form of support.
It’s like they’re sitting beside us looking at the same thing we are.
Looking for understanding – Together
I feel I have one job right now and that is to love myself. I start with the most obvious: my body.
Am I my body?
No, not really
Do I reside in the body?
Yes, I think so
Is there a central place in my body where I originate?
Yes, I think so
Where?
Humans, when physically referring to themselves point to their chest. A robot, I imagine, would point to their head which would look quite silly for a human to do. Funny really.
My Heart Center
Love that
If it’s painful?
Love it more
So begins the most excellent adventure to my source which, in the end, turns out to be the source of everything, everywhere – Absolutely!
Ps: There is (still) a lot of interference with massive resources behind it to prevent us from doing just that. Otherwise it’s not that hard – it’s natural.
And now more than ever it’s doable.
Japanese people points to their nose though.
But if you ask them where is the seat of the Soul, chances are, they will point to the Hara (belly).
Some people’s lives are so messed up they can’t do much without help.
Everyone help each other.
Fairy rules say so amen.
😊🎉👍
Thank you for the article.
I’ll never write another article.
Here’s the next 3 articles.
😄😄😃👍🎉
Amen
Regarding the subject of intervention, if it is time for that or not, some words:
I read in a Ashtar Command’s book of the 60’s – don’t remember the title now, I would have to locate it – the being, not Ashtar but of the crew, said that for them, they would have landed 30 years ago. That means in the 1930’s.
But this was not possible due to military and governments hostility and surely by the larger part of population.
In Project World Evacuation, 1982 the plan was presented in broad lines, the Evacuation will take place in the last moment possible: in case of a total Nuclear War or just before major Earth’s cataclysms due to the passage of a large planetary body – Nibiru or Planet X.
Several attempts were made to begin the Ascension Waves:
In 1990 with The Crystal Stair
In 2002 and several other times in Operation Terra.
Just there was not enough qualified people for the First Wave of Ascension.
Now it seems that the thing will be done in the last possible moment, as depicted in Project World Evacuation.
And this last moment may be October 2026 as Ashtar said through this channel, specially if the Zetas are telling the truth, last weeks from November 2026 to February 2027 and Planet X passage around February 2027.
Or before, in case of Nuclear War.
Jesus in Rio Grande do Sul – o Semeador do Evangelho says that soon a Nuclear Bomb will be detonated and immediatelly before and also after, the ships will come and offer rescue.
Pleiadians, Sirians and Arcturians mainly.
My personal perspective is that you are trying to fit a big foot in a small boot, but I genuinely appreciate that you are sharing the sources from where you come from.
Modern New Agers are much ignorant about the Path of Initiation, as presented in Occultism books, such as Theosophy, Alice Bailey, Bridge to Freedom (Geraldine Innocenti, USA, 1950’s), Summit Lighthouse, Aleister Crowley (the Great Beast 666), Golden Dawn, Rosicrucians, Kabbalah, Hinduism and even the Bible. New Agers don’t study these sources, thus they have just a vague ideia of the stages of progression of the Soul, which are clear, exact, precise.
All these sources are the real foundation of New Age – the Age of Aquarius on the 5D New Earth – the Kingdom of God fully manifested on Earth, spoken of by Jesus in Bible.
There is much talking about Ascension but what this means, technically speaking ?
It is the 4th Initiation in the Great White Brotherhood.
The full attainment of Binah – Sephirah 3 in the Tree of Life – Understanding.
It involves a change in the Physical Body – the present 3D body is consumed by the Ascension Flame and nothing even ashes remain, if properly achieved, and the Monad or Divine Spark will inhabitate a new body composed only by Etheric Matter or matter of the Abstract Mental Plane – the popular 5th Dimension.
Like the Pleiadians and the inhabitants of Telos for example.
The inhabitants of the 5D New Age all will be in this type of body.
I have seen people in these bodies in dreams, they are extremelly beautiful.
There are some good books which explains well the process, mainly:
Bible
Project World Evacuation – Ashtar Command through Tuella, 1982
The Crystal Stair by Eric Klein, 1990
Dossier on the Ascension by Serapis Bey – Summit Lighthouse
Operation Terra by Sara Estes (1999 to present)
Haha what a waste, 30min comment lost again.
Okay, it just a while for it to appear, out of whatever reason.
Same for the term „ascension“. For me personally it sounds at least like leaving the physical plane. But obviously some others must use it differently; doesn’t KejRaj say by 2027 all of humanity will ascend? What does this mean? 😅 I just translate it to „some kind of major spiritual shift“.
Also I like that Hakann comes back to the question of the intervention’s timing. It shows how he deeply cares. I think yes, Pleiadians seem to not be able to understand how it is when your fundamental „spiritual faculties“ are all infiltrated by hidden darkness which twists every thought, every strive to align to the Light, the concept of Light been fundamentally twisted in the subconscious, misleading concepts everywhere, illness that not only affects the body but taints the Life force, emotional scarcity and a physical reality that only coerces, diverts, distracts and tempts. It has become much better though in the last years (as I experience it), much much less false light now that infiltrates into the core of things. 👍
You’ve become so productive again channeling-wise, A.S., are you feeling better? Or is it despite hardships? In any case, feel hugged (when you like it) and thanks for the transmission.
