I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn channeling for this session comes from June 21, 1981:
(Jim channeling)
I am Hatonn. I am with this instrument. I greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. We have had some difficulty initiating contact this evening. The difficulty has to do with our pleasant problem, shall we say, of an abundance of instruments from which to choose. This instrument was finally able to speak our contact after doing a bit of manipulating with the machine.
As always, it is a great honor and privilege to be asked by your group to share a few of our thoughts with you. We of Hatonn strive through such meetings as this to share a simple, but, we feel, profound message with your people, with those who are willing to open their hearts and their minds to new experiences and new understanding of the one infinite Creator. The new understandings are always built upon the never changing original Thought which the Creator used to create all of the creation. This thought, my friends, as you know, is based on the concept of Love and the concept of unity. Throughout all of the creation, the creation is unified by Love. Love is the moving force, the foundation upon which all is built.
We of Hatonn have the simple task, it would seem—though it has not always proven simple in our past—we have the task of sharing our insights and our understandings of how Love works within the density which you inhabit at this time. We hope through these communications that we are able to provide means whereby you might see Love in action in each of your waking moments, for that is the task of your density. That is the learning which each must, to a certain degree, master before passing on to the next lesson, shall we say. We have not always been able to find means whereby we might be able to explain Love to those who seek our guidance in every manner, but through continued communications with your people we have learned much in the realm of explaining and experiencing that concept of Love, whichever is sought by those of your people.
In this session Hatonn wanted to speak about confusion and its relationship to Love. They began by saying we strive through meetings as this to share a simple and profound message with your people who are willing to open their hearts and their minds to new experiences and new understanding of the one infinite Creator, and the new understandings are built upon the never changing original Thought which the Creator used to create all of the creation, so this thought is based on the concepts of Love and unity, for throughout all of the creation, the creation is unified by Love, so Love is the foundation upon which all is built. Hatonn went on to say we have the task of sharing our understandings of how Love works within the density which you inhabit at this time, and we hope through these communications that we are able to provide means where you see Love in action in each of your waking moments, for that is the task of your density, and that is the learning which each must master before passing on to the next lesson, but we have not always been able to find means whereby we might be able to explain Love to those who seek our guidance in every manner, but through continued communications with your people we have learned much in the realm of explaining and experiencing that concept of Love, whichever is sought by those of your people. On February 25, 2023, Q’uo described the concept of Love:
The Primal Logos may be seen as also the Great Central Sun where the beginning of creation takes place. This Primal Logos is what you would also call the concept of Love. The concept of Love is created when the one Infinite Creator focuses Its desire to know Itself through this Love, this creative power that then becomes able to create what we call the infinite creation.
Within the infinite creation there are various other Logoi that create galaxies, such as your Milky Way Galaxy. The Logoi of each galaxy then create sub-Logoi such as your sun. Each takes part in sharing the Love, the creative power of the One Infinite Creator, with all those beings that exist upon the infinite number of planets within this infinite creation. This is the means by which the power of the Creator is recognized.
And when the Creator shines its Love in this fashion, expressing Its free will, then the creation itself is made by the power of Love and manifests as what you call Light. The Light is that which is the enlivening feature or principle of the creation that allows the Creator to know Itself.
Then Hatonn said we would speak a few words upon the concept of confusion and its relationship to Love, and it might not seem an area which could be connected to Love, but consider the state of confusion when you can remember times when you found yourself in such a state, and look at the response which is confusion which is a state where there is little activity, for activity has been brought to a halt because certain messages do not match your preconceived notions about what should be, so we suggest that in such a situation described as confusion that it is most beneficial to rest within that position for a few moments of time. Hatonn continued by saying place yourself in such a state for a few moments, and look within the boundaries of confusion where there appears to be no exit, and within confusion you have a status of motionless being because you have traveled a path up to that point, and the path leads no further, and you are unsure of which way you should go, so look at the many directions which present themselves so that you are more confused, for each path is a possibility, yet each path is an impossibility, so consider carefully what response will take you further in clear understanding of your journey, and: “At this particular time, how shall you approach the problem, the predicament? Shall you blindly go forward upon the first path which presents itself? And if this path is the incorrect choice? More confusion. Shall you wait and shall you assess the many paths that present themselves? Still you find yourself in confusion. Shall you do nothing? The confusion persists. What must you do to move from confusion and to the proper path for your next step of growth?” On November 21, 1999, Q’uo spoke of how we may move from confusion:
You may ask, “Am I supposed to flounder in this sea of confusion for my entire incarnation? Is there no way that I can improve at moving from the surface of a situation in which I experience catalyst to a deeper appreciation of the opportunities that this catalyst offers?” And we say to you, you may well attempt to become ever more quickly aware of the true situation and move from confusion to faith, but do not ever begrudge these irritations and annoyances in relationships that bring you to yourself.
Consider this for a few moments, if you will. As the confusion fills your being, what shall you do? Look within your being, my friends. Can you find an openness and acceptance of your state of confusion? It is, after all, your state at the moment. Could you not perhaps claim it? It is no sin, shall we say, to be confused. Indeed, perhaps it is of great benefit, for if you can accept the situation in which you know that you do not know, then might there be the openness, the acceptance, the love within your being of this state of confusion; the openness that will allow the proper course of action of thought to be drawn to you as a magnet draws the filings of iron. For if you are open as an empty cup, then more can be added, or poured into your being, but if you persist in believing that you know exactly what you need to do to keep up the image, shall we say, and to bull ahead with any plan simply to have a plan of action, then you are likened unto the cup that is full and no more may be added until the cup is empty.
Within this state of confusion, when the state of confusion can be accepted as a part of the being that is yourself, then, through this acceptance you may find within yourself the openness to draw wisdom unto your being. Wisdom is much likened unto the forces which fill a vacuum. It is all about you. It is always available; available for the learning; available to those who make a place within their being for it; available to those who seek it, seek it, perhaps, by realizing that they do not know all the answers that they need at any moment, though at every moment most entities console themselves by thinking that they know much. We of Hatonn would counsel foolishness, my friends. We would counsel that you know very little, that we ourselves know very little, but that this state of confusion, shall we say, is a state of infinite possibilities to those who accept it as part of their being and who use it as a method of drawing wisdom unto then.
Hatonn went on to say consider this for a few moments as confusion fills your being to consider what you shall do, and look within your being, and: “Can you find an openness and acceptance of your state of confusion? It is, after all, your state at the moment. Could you not perhaps claim it?” Hatonn said it is no sin to be confused, and perhaps it is of benefit, for if you can accept the situation in which you know that you do not know, then might there be the openness within your being of this state of confusion that will allow the proper course of action of thought to be drawn to you as a magnet draws the filings of iron, for if you are open as an empty cup, then more can be poured into your being, but if you persist in believing that you know what you need to do to keep up the image and to bull ahead with any plan simply to have a plan of action, then you are likened unto the cup that is full, and no more may be added until the cup is empty. Now Hatonn said within this state of confusion, when the state of confusion can be accepted as a part of your being, and through this acceptance you may find within yourself the openness to draw wisdom unto your being, for wisdom is like the forces which fill a vacuum since it is all about you, and it is always available for learning, and it is available to those who seek it by realizing that they do not know all the answers that they need at any moment, though at every moment most entities console themselves by thinking that they know much, so we would counsel foolishness that you know very little, but this state of confusion is a state of infinite possibilities to those who accept it as part of their being and who use it as a method of drawing wisdom unto them. On June 11, 1974, Hatonn said that a state of confusion could help us understand the Love of our Creator:
We are very privileged to have those of you who join with us in this great service at this time in the history of your planet. For, my friends, this is a very great time, a great transitional period in which many of the Earth’s people will be raised from their state of confusion to a simple understanding: the Love of their Creator.
We would at this time pause for a few moments so that Laitos may pass among you, and to those who request assistance in their meditation, Laitos will contact each and deepen the meditative state. We would pause now for a few moments. I am Hatonn.
[Pause]
I am Hatonn, and am with this instrument once again. We would at this time transfer this contact to another instrument. I am Hatonn.
(Carla channeling)
I am now with this instrument. I am Hatonn and I greet you, my friends, again in the Love and in the Light of our infinite Creator. Yes, my friends, there is much in your illusion which seems to you to be inconvenient, and which does bring confusion, and yet, we suggest to you that without some disorder there is no creation. Perhaps you have known entities or perhaps you have even found within yourself some tendency towards the desire for the ultimate orderliness of existence. And perhaps you have noted the sterility which this brings. Just as that which is fruitful multiplies with a minimum of neatness and an excess of enthusiasm, so does confusion offer you a minimum of neatness. It is to you, my friends, that the decision is handed: enthusiasm, or its opposite. It is often difficult to be enthusiastic about the unknown. It is difficult to be enthusiastic when you truly do not know what to do. It is difficult to count oneself lucky when one seems to be lost in a sea with no shore in sight.
But this is the breeding ground of new beginnings, of transformations, and of wisdoms. Where are you, my friends? Where do you see yourselves at this moment? Do you see yourselves in a room or in a dwelling or in a city or a nation? Can you pull away and see yourself upon the surface of the planet, sitting in darkness? Can you pull further, further away and lose sight of the planet altogether as you view the galaxy in which you have your being at this time? Is there any meaning to so small a piece of consciousness as one entity—you—seated in darkness on a small planet in a minor solar system in a reasonable-sized galaxy among billions of other galaxies? Or is it all confusion?
Now Hatonn wanted to speak about confusion. They began by saying there is much in your illusion which seems to you to be inconvenient, and which brings confusion, and we suggest to you that without some disorder there is no creation, and you have known entities, or perhaps you have found within yourself some tendency towards the desire for the orderliness of existence, and perhaps you have noted the sterility which this brings, for just as that which is fruitful multiplies with a minimum of neatness and an excess of enthusiasm, so does confusion offer you a minimum of neatness, for it is to you that the decision is handed: enthusiasm, or its opposite, but it is difficult to be enthusiastic when you do not know what to do, and it is difficult to count oneself lucky when one seems to be lost in a sea with no shore in sight. Hatonn went on to say this is the breeding ground of transformations and of wisdoms, and: ”Where are you, my friends? Where do you see yourselves at this moment? Do you see yourselves in a room, or in a dwelling, or in a city, or a nation? Can you pull away and see yourself upon the surface of the planet, sitting in darkness? Can you pull further, further away and lose sight of the planet altogether as you view the galaxy in which you have your being at this time? Is there any meaning to so small a piece of consciousness as one entity—you—seated in darkness on a small planet in a minor solar system in a reasonable-sized galaxy among billions of other galaxies? Or is it all confusion?” On March 30, 2019, Q’uo spoke about the value of our confusion:
The intention, and desire, and exercise of will to seek the truth is one which goes through a process of what you might call trial and error, learning step by step what seems to be the most appropriate manner in which the self may view itself, the world about it, and other selves within it. These interactions create catalyst, as you are aware, which most often has its roots in misperceptions, in disharmony, and in incorrectly perceiving the communications and intimations of other entities so that confusion results. This confusion, then, offers the seeker an opportunity to rectify, or clarify the nature of the confusion so that there is a greater likelihood that the seeker may be able to harvest a kind of understanding, if you will pardon the misnomer, that might enlighten it in a greater way regarding all of its questions that revolve around the nature of its being, the progress of its seeking, the goal of the journey, and so forth.
This type of exercise of free will that produces confusion, that offers catalyst, that offers further direction in the seeking, is a process which is predominantly undertaken within your third-density illusion so that the choice of polarity may be made, and the polarized choice for service to others or service to self may then be promulgated in higher densities. Now, the higher densities do not have the veil of forgetting, so there is less likelihood that there will be as much confusion in the exercise of free will in those densities, as there is in the third density. However, the higher densities do still utilize the exercise of free will that produces in its own way, a kind of confusion that offers a need for examination for further growth in the inner sensing of the way to unify with the One once again.
We suggest to you, my friends, that confusion is balanced by meaning and meaning by confusion. You will not find the meaning within each moment of your existence without the acceptance of the confusion, of the foolishness of the limitations of our understanding as entities which are part of a vast and mysterious universe. The meaning is there, my friends. We have seen the laws of creation, and their working never falters, to the best of our understanding. Yet, from moment to moment, the great laws disappear, and confusion often reigns. If you can remain conscious both of how small a part of creation you are and of how perfect a part of it you are, you will have achieved a great deal. And this, my friends, as you know, cannot be done without meditation. We offer these thoughts to you at this time, for we know your desire to be of service to others, but we suggest to you that you first must align yourself with the original Thought of the Creator in whatever situation you may find yourself, including the greatest confusion. Then and only then, can you be of maximum aid to those about you.
Hatonn continued by saying we suggest to you that confusion is balanced by meaning and meaning by confusion, so you will not find meaning within each moment of your existence without the acceptance of the confusion, of the foolishness of the limitations of our understanding as entities which are part of a mysterious universe, but the meaning is there, for we have seen the laws of creation, and their working never falters, yet from moment to moment the great laws disappear, and confusion often reigns, so if you can remain conscious both of how small a part of creation you are and of how perfect a part of it you are, you will have achieved a great deal, and this cannot be done without meditation, and we offer these thoughts to you, for we know your desire to be of service to others, but we suggest that you first must align yourself with the original Thought of the Creator in whatever situation you may find yourself, including the confusion, for only then can you be of aid to those about you. On January 26, 2003, Q’uo described how the mysterious universe we live in gives us opportunities for growth:
It often seems very clear what is service to self and what is service to others. However, many are those who have found that there are courses in polarity given to them by the school of life which are exceedingly subtle and worthy of study. For those who are attempting not only to choose but to choose with grace and deftness and skill, not the most obvious service to others but the highest, there is a never-ending and very rich palate of choices to be made, options to be considered. And always, ever-new each day; a new and newly mysterious universe to comprehend, behold, and give thanks for.
At this time we would open the meeting to questions.
C: Yes, I have a question. We were discussing before the meditation about entities sort of getting together before their incarnation here to set up the lessons that they need to learn and to work with each other, but it seems that many times second-density creatures aid us in our lessons. And I was wondering, is there some coordinating force who coordinates the second-density creatures to aid in the lessons of third-density creatures, referring to an event like what happened this week with the turtle?
I am Hatonn. The cart is basically before the horse in your question in that third-density entities may be of great service to second-density entities by offering them love. The second-density entity then mirrors that emotion and develops the responses which it is taught by the third-density entity.
May we answer you further?
C: Then, so our expression of love toward second-density creatures aids them in their evolution. I can see that, but it seems they’re also a reinforcement for us and it seems like many times more than a coincidence that situations arise where we serve them, or they serve us.
I am Hatonn. We had to keep this instrument quiet while the machine was being changed. We understand your question and find it slightly difficult to respond to, for there are random events which, when responded to, are invested with meaning according to the response given. Thus, if a second-density creature, whether it be a tree, or an animal, or some other second-density entity, is aided voluntarily by a third-density entity, this may well be a random choice and yet, it is catalyst for growth for the third-density entity as well as the second-density entity. The greatest help that can be given is that of the pet, as you may call a domestic animal or plant, whereby love is shared and the second-density entity invested with love. This second-density entity then becomes a mirror reflecting the third-density entity, both in good and bad habits, as you may call them, according to your own judgment.
May we answer you further, my brother?
C: No, I guess not. Thank you.
Hatonn: We thank you. Is there another question at this time?
M: How does one get in touch with the infinite intelligence? Ra has spoken of the infinite intelligence at length, but how do we get in touch?
I am Hatonn. My brother, the answer to this question would be impossible to share except in a joking manner. We may say to you, to get to Carnegie Hall you must rehearse, and yet that does not give you all the information which you need to know. To follow the path of Love is to achieve unity with infinite intelligence, as you call it, or the one infinite Creator. There is no other possibility in the end, for it is the ultimate attraction towards which we all are drawn. To achieve this contact within your present illusion it is necessary to achieve within the self a serenity and love of self, a peaceful love of others, and an overriding desire to seek the truth.
There are many avenues to intelligent infinity, all having to do with the use of the creative force of Love. Meditation, healing, communication, what you may call ritual and ceremony, the proper use of the body, the mind, and the spirit, all these are ways and keys of achieving intelligent infinity contact, as you call it. We would simply say Love and serve and seek to know. This has been our simple message always.
May we answer you further, my brother?
M: Yes. Ra has spoken of several entities, both positive and negative, that were able to be of great service to others or to themselves because they were in touch with this cosmic consciousness, yet, how did they reach that point in this particular plane and with all its confusion?
I am Hatonn. As we said, my brother, there is a great amount of discipline involved in this seeking. This is the seeking of the adept. It cannot be achieved quickly or lightly, for the most part, but must be sought fruitlessly and seemingly without any achievement in all patience, through all confusion, through all self-doubt, through all tribulation, constantly seeking, constantly asking, constantly waiting, constantly knowing that that which is sought will be found, and at some moment when all is completed within your being, at some moment unknown it will occur, and in that moment you will know the joy of Love and Light and infinity. This will happen to you and to each. This is your destiny. If you consciously seek it, it will simply occur more quickly in your time measurement.
May we answer you further, my brother?
M: No, thank you.
Hatonn: We thank you also. Is there another question at this time?
L: Could you speak to us on the subject of relationships between men and women on this planet? The proper state, as opposed to a number of rituals and games we’ve developed for interrelating?
I am Hatonn. My brother, in your question lies the answer. The relationship between any two entities among your people would hopefully be that of love freely given and freely received, of aid and service freely given and freely received. There are difficulties inherent in your cultural or societal structure having to do with possession of property, and this causes entities to consider other entities much as one business would consider another when contemplating a merger. This is not an appropriate method of polarizing towards the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator, nor does it give the greatest opportunity for freely given service, each to the other. It is not necessary to participate in such ritualized activities in order to form deep and lasting relationships. It is, in fact, possible, and we have seen it among your people, for entities to engage in what you call the marriage bond and remain in free and open love and service one to the other. This, however, takes a great amount of conscious awareness of the dangers of impersonal thinking on the part of each entity involved in such a relationship. In any relationship, the key is to consider service to the other entity above all things.
L asked: “Could you speak to us on the subject of relationships between men and women on this planet? The proper state, as opposed to a number of rituals and games we’ve developed for interrelating?” Hatonn began by saying the relationship between any two entities among your people would hopefully be that of love freely given and freely received, of aid and service freely given and freely received, but there are difficulties in your cultural structure having to do with possession of property, and this causes entities to consider other entities much as one business would consider another business when contemplating a merger, but this is not an appropriate method of polarizing towards the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator, nor does it give the greatest opportunity for freely given service, and it is not necessary to participate in such activities in order to form deep and lasting relationships, for it is possible, and we have seen your people engaging in the marriage bond and remain in free and open love and service one to the other, but this takes conscious awareness of the dangers of impersonal thinking on the part of each entity involved in such a relationship, for in any relationship, the key is to consider service to the other entity above all things. On August 6, 1981, Laitos described the nature of the marriage bond:
The relationship known among your people as marriage is a vehicle for service. The polarity between two entities draws them together and forms within each a bias to be of service. This is the basis of the relationship. This relationship is heavily laden with heavy difficulties inherent in the non-flexible structure which is lacking in the bias toward service.
Thus, when dealing in the illusion with this relationship, it is well to clear from the mind all possible thoughts of the necessity which the marriage bond seems to suggest and to focus instead upon the bias toward service to another which caused the genesis of the relationship.
There are several responsibilities in this relationship. There is the responsibility of offering the self for service. There is the responsibility of expressing the self in as undistorted a manner as possible, so that yours may be to the other entity a clear self, a self that communicates and is therefore of service by teaching or by offering the ability of one in need of teaching.
May we answer you further?
L: Yes. You made the phrase, “the dangers of impersonal living.” I believe I quoted you correctly. Could you expand upon that please?
I am Hatonn. When there are contracts between business entities, the contract gives each entity rights, and privileges, and duties. This contract then binds the entities in an agreement. This is an impersonal arrangement which dehumanizes a relationship if it is between two entities on a personal level, and causes each to think of his or her rights and privileges and how to minimize the responsibilities. It is difficult not to succumb from time to time to thinking of these rights and privileges due to one who has so carefully written out this agreement and signed it, for much is given by one who signs such an agreement. These contracts between entities are of a serious nature, and this seriousness is felt by both and often becomes burdensome, thus entities begin dealing with each other in an impersonal way, working for their rights and privileges and forgetting that the entire source of the relationship was the boundless joy of the other company and a great desire to serve that entity.
May we answer you further, my brother?
L: No, thank you.
Hatonn: It is a pleasure to share our thoughts with you. Is there another question at this time?
[Pause]
I am Hatonn. If there are no more questions at this time we would close the meeting through another instrument. We will contact him now. I am Hatonn.
(L channeling)
I am Hatonn, and I greet you once again. It has been a great pleasure for us in that, by performing this insignificant service for you we have been able, ever so slightly, [inaudible] the Light of the universe, to further illumine an area which has, shall we say, drawn its blinds in the past. It is our wish that we be allowed, at any place or time in your lives, to assist you in whatever manner possible, for it is through you and others such as yourselves that the blind may once again be raised and the Light allowed to permeate your sphere. Again, we thank you. I am Hatonn.
[Carla channels Nona until the end of the meditation.]
This morning I went outside and used Huff and Puff to blow the leaves in the back yard on this side of Little Locust Creek to the area in the driveway in front of my truck, Sybil.
This afternoon I drove over to southern Indiana to visit Connie. I took her some bananas, Choc-Zero chocolates, and some protein bars. Then I read to her from a book that Don had just gotten the Introduction and Chapter One written. So, I only read the Introduction to her, and she found many instances of humor and Love in his thoughts. We talked about my visit with my Physical Therapist yesterday and the exercises that she gave me that required a great deal of balance. Connie and I meditated together, and then I gave her a hug and told her that I loved her and would see her again next month as I left.
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:
November 14
Expect Your Good
I am of the principle of Jesus the Christ, and I greet you in the full consciousness of divine Love.
Today we ask you to expect your good. The instrument speaking our thoughts is a living example of this principle. For in expectation of this contact with Love, the instrument and her partner placed the recording device, set the proper buttons, placed the microphone in the proper place, and prepared with readings and meditation for inspiration through this contact. Good was expected and prepared for, and now, in this example, the good comes freely, gently, lovingly, and surely.
So good comes to all, expected or unexpected. Yet it is well in each and every morning, in each and every beginning, to affirm, hope for and confidently expect the good that is yours.
And when it comes to you, we ask that you accept that good though it may not seem good, knowing that all things work together for the good and seeing in your own experience the good that has come before. In this state of mind, in this expectation of things unseen, you are dressed in the armor of Light and hope, and the course of your day may be significantly changed, more peaceful, more harmonious. This is what we hope for you. This is what we ask you to expect.
We leave you in the peace and the Love of Jesus the Christ, now and ever. Amen.
I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:
We come in the name of Love and open our hearts minds, and souls to send Love, Light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite Love, Light, and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our Love, Light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.
