Many people in the new age movement are aware of the channeling work of Darryl Anka, and his channelings of Bashar. Bashar is an extraterrestrial being from a civilization known as Essassani. The name Bashar, in Armenian, means messenger. Darryl Anka has actually seen Bashar’s spacecraft in broad daylight over Los Angeles. The society that Bashar lives in is telepathic. Bashar is not his real name. In his society he is a commander of some kind.
The term Essassani means "place of living light". Essassani reminds me a little bit of the word essence. Darryl Anka has described their physical looks as Eurasian in feature with enlarged eyes. They are about five feet tall with whitish/gray skin.
The females have white hair, and the males have no hair. The Essassani civilization is approximately 500 light years in the direction of the Orion constellation. This civilization is not physical as we understand physicality. They live on a higher vibration so the star system they are from is not visible.
Bashar communicates to us through what we, on Earth, would consider to be the future. If you ever have the opportunity to experience Darryl Anka channel Bashar, it would be well worth your efforts. It is quite a high energy experience.
