Who—or what—is Bashar?

Before heading to Sedona for the Bashar Sedona Weekend Event, I’m taking a closer look at the story behind one of the most fascinating figures in modern channeling.

For more than four decades, Darryl Anka has claimed to channel Bashar, a multidimensional being who shares teachings about consciousness, reality, manifestation, synchronicity, and the nature of existence.

In Part 1, we explore who Darryl Anka is, how the Bashar phenomenon began, what Bashar claims to be, and some of the core ideas behind the teachings. We’ll also look at channeling itself and the different ways people interpret what may—or may not—be happening.

I’m not asking you to believe it. I’m asking you to stay curious.

Because in Part 2, Bryon and I are heading to Sedona to experience Bashar in person—and afterward, we’ll tell you exactly what we thought.

Trust your intuition, follow the signs, and I’ll catch you on the next frequency.
