I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Q’uo quote comes from August 2, 1988:
(Jim channeling)
I am Q’uo, and greet each again in love and light through this instrument. It is our privilege at this time to offer ourselves in the attempt to speak to any queries which may remain upon the minds of those present. We would wish each to know that that which we offer is our opinion, that which is the fruit of our seeking. Please take those words which we speak that ring of truth to you and use them as you will, leaving behind those that do not ring of that truth, leaving them behind without a second glance. Is there a query at this time to which we may speak?
Carla: Could you talk to me about devas, nature spirits?
I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my sister. This, as you know, is quite a large field of inquiry, and we would not be able to do it justice if we were to attempt in such a short gathering as this to speak extensively. But we may suggest that the entities which you describe as the nature spirits, devas, are those which inhabit your plant and animal kingdom as thickly as your plants and animals themselves, for there are many such spirits which work in conjunction with the natural world about you and serve as a kind of caretaker and communicator between the various forms of second density life and the third-density creatures such as your population of entities upon the surface of your planet at this time.
There are beings in each realm of existence which are responsible for enhancing, shall we say, the communion of the plants and the animals with each other and with the Earth itself. They are such as you would see guides and teachers of your inner planes in their function and relationship to third-density creatures. They inform the various plant and animal life-forms according to these life-forms’ desire to gain a self-conscious awareness which is the hallmark of your third-density population, for all of life moves toward the light and love of the one Creation, and all of life has those helpers or guides which assist in this movement, the assistance being necessary for those who are less aware of that towards which they move, and which, by their desire to move in that direction, call for the assistance of those who answer. In the case of the plant and animal life-forms, those who answer in many cases are those who you would call the nature spirits and the devas.
Carla asked Q’uo to speak about nature spirits and devas. Q’uo said that nature spirits and devas were much like our guides in that they worked with plants and animals in order to help them communicate with each other and to progress on their spiritual journeys into the third density. On April 19, 1981, Latwii revealed how we may communicate with nature spirits and devas:
Remember that not all beings may speak. Therefore you may speak to them, though they speak not to you, yet they hear you. In this manner you may approach the devas, as you call them. These spirits will, to the less sensitive beings, be silent and unseen, yet you shall contact them if you sit in meditation and speak with them upon reaching the appropriate state, universal love and respect, of which you have spoken. In time, you may find that due to your faith you will be able to feel, hear or see these spirits. They will, in any case, respond to you and cooperate more and more, as you hope.
Is there another query?
Carla: I just wondered as to their nature. Are they second-density graduates that have chosen to turn back and help their brothers and sisters until they can all graduate into our density of humanity? Or do they come from elsewhere? Are they third-density graduates who have decided to turn back and help second density?
I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my sister. The origin of these entities is one which is somewhat difficult to describe in your terms, but we feel that the concept of…
[Side one of tape ends.]
Carla wanted to know what kind of life nature spirits and devas were. Since Q’uo’s answer was lost due to the tape ending I will share a quote from March 4, 1979, where Latwii gave a brief description of their nature:
Thus, the dimensions directly involved with your Earth plane, which are invisible to you, are those which give the sphere of energy, which you call your planet, its life. Elves, gnomes, fairies, devas and spirits of all kinds are the elemental forms which govern the growth, the health, and the life of such things as rocks, flowers, trees, grasses and animal life.
Carla: I appreciate that information, Q’uo, because I’m working with someone for the first time who wants to work with nature spirits, and I’d like to feel more familiar with their nature so that I may help her further. Thank you.
I am Q’uo, and am again with this instrument. And we thank you, my sister. Is there another query?
J: Q’uo, I have a question I’m trying to formulate in my mind so that it makes sense to you. The question I have is regarding that comment on muses, and do I understand you correctly that in our channeling or in our quest for self-knowledge we respond to your call of the muse?
I am Q’uo, and in regards to your query, my sister, we would suggest that our use of the term, muse, in relation to the seeker of truth and the means by which the seeking is carried out, refers to that quality or perhaps cluster of qualities within the seeker which speaks with a special power and glory, shall we say, for each seeker will discover within the self as the journey of seeking progresses that there are certain avenues of inquiry that hold a special interest, and others which hold that interest not so long or so intensely.
Thus, as this is discovered by each seeker, the seeker may be said to hearken to the voice of the inner muse. The poet hearkens to the use of words to express greater concepts than words themselves contain. The artist looks upon the canvas and the palette as the grounds upon which it shall express the song of the inner muse. The muse for each seeker is that voice which speaks most clearly of truth, and each seeker then, as this is discovered, may follow that voice and hearken to its speaking in order that more of the truth of its existence, purpose, and means of expression might be made known to it.
J wanted to know if in the channeling or the calling for self-knowledge we are responding to Q’uo’s concept of the muse. Q’uo said that whether we are a poet, an artist, a musician or a channel we all have the inner voice of inspiration that helps us with our life’s work, and this is the inner muse. On November 16, 2006, Q’uo said that we all have a muse within us for inspiration:
We would ask you to trust and to know that you do indeed have a muse and that muse is focused entirely upon supporting, encouraging and inspiring you. What is the shape of that muse, my brother? What name shall you call the source of your inspiration? What helper have you yearned for from the beginning? Name it. Claim it. Use it. For us to name that guidance and that inspiration for you would be utterly fruitless. This is your active process and we wish you happy hunting!
Is there another query, my sister?
J: Yes. Thank you. That really explains what I wanted to know. Further, you had made mention that some areas of interest are more prone to drawing those who wish to dim the light, and others are not. Is my understanding of that correct?
I am Q’uo. This is basically correct, my sister, for as any seeker or group of seekers becomes more efficient, shall we say, at seeking and radiating the light of the one Creator, this light is seen as a power on the metaphysical or time/space levels of existence, and it is within these levels of existence that other beings of thought [and] power move and are attracted to the light. The negative entities are attracted to such light because it is a spiritual kind of power that they wish to utilize for their own purposes in service to self. Thus, their means of utilizing that light for their own uses is seen by those radiating and seeking that light in an efficient manner as the dimming of the light, for it is removed, shall we say, from whence it sprung.
J asked if there some areas of a seeker’s interest that would attract entities that would like to dim that light. Q’uo agreed that when seekers produce more light on their spiritual journeys the negative entities are likely to attempt to take that light for their own uses. On January 24, 2009,Q’uo described the inevitable failure of negative entities to put out light:
Consequently, the service-to-self path is a path steeped in illusion and lies. For it is only by denying the truth of light that darkness can prevail. In the end, darkness never prevails. For it cannot put out the light, as the light can and does at last illumine every corner of existence. The eventual ascendancy of light is inevitable.
May we speak further, my sister?
J: Yes, I do have another question, and again, I need to have a few seconds to formulate it.
Carla: I’ll take that time just to say that isn’t what you meant more or less that if you were a plumber, you might be following a muse of copper or something, but you’re not going to be attracting negatives, because you’re not polarizing positive, you’re just putting in pipe. Isn’t that what you meant, Q’uo?
I am Q’uo. This is correct, my sister, for the endeavor of the seeker of truth is that which increases the polarity or the ability of that entity to welcome and enjoy the love and the light which is a power of the one Creator. Just as your battery within your automobile is able to function because of the potential difference between the positive and the negative charge, so is the seeker of truth able to do work in consciousness according to its ability to polarize itself in the positive, or service-to-others fashion, in an effective manner.
When this has been accomplished to a significant enough degree, that polarization is as a light and a source of energy or power which might be utilized by that seeker for further service to others and further journeying upon the path of service to others itself. Or the light may be used by those of negative polarity if they are successful in infringing upon this power through means not of their own design, but of openings or invitations, shall we say, on the part of the positive seeker of truth which has perhaps for a moment unwittingly or unthinkingly moved itself away from the truth it knows and entered into a disharmony which is as the opening of an invitation for the negative entity to intensify to the degree that it will perhaps be able to dim the light for a time and use that power for itself, as it has removed the light from the service of others.
Carla asked if what Q’uo meant to say was that you have to be working to polarize your consciousness in a positive sense in order to attract the attention of negative entities. Q’uo agreed and said that the positive seeker can make an opening for negative entities to take this polarized light from the seeker if the seeker creates an opening within its being through a disharmonious behavior. In 57.2-.3, Ra gave this as the basis of psychic attacks by negative entities:
Questioner: Is there anything in particular that we can do in addition to what we are doing to alleviate this attack?
Ra: I am Ra. There is nothing you can do to alleviate the attack. The understanding of its mechanism might be of aid.
Questioner: Could you tell us its mechanism?
Ra: I am Ra. The Orion group cannot interfere directly but only through pre-existing distortions of mind/body/spirit complexes.
When we have opened ourselves to such psychic attacks, Ra gave us the process to respond to psychic attacks in 44.10:
Questioner: This is very revealing to us. Thank you. Each of us gets the signals and dreams. I have been aware of clairaudient communication at least once in waking up. Can you suggest a method whereby we might, shall I say, nullify the effect of the influence that we don’t want from a negative source?
Ra: I am Ra. There are various methods. We shall offer the most available or simple. To share the difficult contact with the other-selves associated with this working and to meditate in love for these senders of images and light for self and other-selves is the most available means of nullifying the effects of such occurrences. To downgrade these experiences by the use of intellect or the disciplines of will is to invite the prolonging of the effects. Far better then to share in trust such experiences and join hearts and souls in love and light with compassion for the sender and armor for the self.
Is there another query, my sister?
Carla: I turn it back to J. Thank you.
J: Okay. Given that there is increased popularity, if you will, of channeling, unless this activity is carefully taught, it seems like the potential for negative energy to see the light, to be attracted to it, and to divert it, to dim it, it seems like that probability is increased. How would you suggest that we prevent that kind of thing happening?
I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my sister. To each entity which engages in the process of offering its service to others in any fashion which is successful, there shall be the temptations offered which serve as a balancing mechanism in order that the entity which has manifested the desire to be of service to others might be offered an equal temptation to move from that service and to join the negative path in some fashion within the life pattern for some period of time. This may be seen also as an opportunity for that same entity to strengthen its desire to serve others and to move ever more faithfully upon that path as the temptations to glorify the self or to gain a power and recognition for the self are recognized and refused.
As the one known as Jesus the Christ experienced the temptations of the one known as Satan, as the one known as Jesus spent the forty days and nights in the desert, demanded that the one known as Satan get behind him, each seeker of truth will find that as progress along the path is made, that there are those opportunities to test the progress that it be true, and if there be a weakness in that seeker’s pattern of expression of service to others, those weaknesses or lesser areas of strength shall be made known to it through the difficulties, shall we say, that are a natural portion of this path, and through recognizing those areas which lack strength, the seeker of truth then may repair these areas and gratefully acknowledge their presence to any entity which has aided in pointing them out.
Thus, we do not offer the information concerning negative entities and their offering of temptations to positive entities as that which is to be feared, but that which is a normal part of the evolutionary progress within your illusion, in order that the progress of each path, both positive and negative, might through their interaction strengthen the other, in order that the one Creator might through these experiences know Itself more fully and each entity within the creation, through these experiences, might know itself more fully and the one Creator more fully and more intensely.
J asked how those who learn to channel could keep negative entities from dimming their light. Q’uo suggested that each seeker who is successful at any kind of polarized service may use any temptations away from the purity of its service such as self aggrandizement or gaining personal power to become stronger in any such weak areas of its service. Q’uo went on to say that the interaction between positive and negative entities in this fashion gives the Creator more chances to know Itself better and each seeker to know itself better. On November 7, 1982, Latwii described how the temptations may be offered to the positive entities:
The reason for such modesty, shall we say, is that free will must be maintained. Many entities begin to receive a positive contact of Confederation origin and then attract the temptations of negative entities as a balance. When such entities are unaware of the necessity for maintaining what you have called the tuning in the positive sense, and fall prey to the temptations to glorify the self or the organization in any way, then the inroads might be made by the negative entities in polluting the contact.
May we speak in any further fashion, my sister?
J: I have no further questions, but so I can understand this—as being an opportunity to strengthen faith, is that correct? That’s a question—I said I wasn’t going to ask a question, but I lied.
I am Q’uo, and this is quite correct, my sister. Is there another query?
J: No. Thank you very much.
I am Q’uo, and we thank you, my sister. Is there another query?
Carla: Just to follow up on that. From previous channeled information, isn’t it also true that the negative path eventually ends, and must turn to a positive path, so that in the end, there is only one path, it’s just that there is a split for a while during this illusion and perhaps the next?
I am Q’uo, and this is correct, my sister, for just as the creation itself and every portion of it shall eventually return to the complete unity of the one Creator, bringing all the experiences that have been gathered during the great octave of being as seeds for the next great octave of being, so those entities of negative polarity shall at some point within their evolutionary progress find the necessity of releasing the negative polarity and adopting that which is the positive polarity, for it is the positive polarity which, though it partakes of illusion and separation in some degree, seeks to affirm the unity of all creation and the divinity of all beings, and seeks to serve all beings as the Creator, whereas the negative polarity is based upon that which is not, that being the separation of one being from another, which lays the groundwork, shall we say, for the potential ruling of one being over another and over others.
As the negative entities continue to pursue this path of separation and control, at some point in order to continue in the process of evolution and to know more of the Creator and to exercise the power of the Creator, it becomes necessary to see other selves as the Creator and as the self. This is not difficult for the positive polarity, but is difficult for the negative polarity that the negative polarity must be abandoned and the power that has been gained from it be used to reverse, shall we say, the polarity in order that continued evolution be possible.
Carla asked Q’uo if it was true that at some point the negative entities will have to give up their path and join the positive path so that then there is only one path. Q’uo agreed that at some point the negative entities will need to be able to see other entities as the Creator and as the self and become positively polarized. Ra spoke to this process in 78.25:
In sixth density, the density of unity, the positive and negative paths must needs take in each other for all now must be seen as love/light and light/love. This is not difficult for the positive polarity, which sends love and light to all other-selves. It is difficult enough for service-to-self polarized entities that at some point the negative polarity is abandoned.
Is there another query, my sister?
Carla: No, thank you very much.
I am Q’uo, and again we thank you, my sister. Is there another query at this time?
Questioner: Oh, that’s a necessary function of this creation, obviously, and an exercise of polarity by those entities of the negative. They perform a function for the positive polarity by being in service to self. They also become in service to others and we of the positive polarity are witness to that and thereby experience both biases. I’m not sure what my question is. I guess what I’m trying to find out is, that’s an integral part of what’s going on here, and it sometimes is hard to feel the separation from those negative entities, knowing that they are part of the creation, part of what we all are, knowing that we all fall within that creation.
I as Q’uo, and we would comment upon your comment by suggesting that indeed all entities, whether of positive or negative or of no polarity, are a portion of the same creation and the same Creator, and that the most effective means for a positively oriented entity to deal with negative polarity is to generate within the heart the overwhelming love for such an entity, and to send that love to that entity in the meditative state if possible, and to bathe that entity in the love and the light of the one Creator as you perceive it.
For all beings are truly a portion of the Creator and of the self, and as the seeker of truth looks within to find that of truth within itself, any experience or entity that it comes upon in its journey of seeking will reflect some portion of inner truth to it, and as the seeker is able to draw unto itself all expressions of the Creator and to see them as the Creator, as the self, and as love, then so they become that which they are, and no longer are that which they seem. The persona, the mask, is removed and for that seeker of truth, that seeker stands before the mirror which looks into its own soul and the heart of the Creator.
Is there a final query at this time?
J: I do have a question, and this is regarding the scenario where the negative polarity eventually makes a shift to positive polarity—I don’t know if I’m saying that correctly. It’s what Carla was talking about to you in her previous question, where the negative eventually seeks the positive. My question is, is this a scenario that we’re witnessing on the Earth at this time, where there seems to be an accumulation of negative polarity, and that negative polarity wishes to make a shift? Has that occurred on the Earth, and has there been a call for light coming from the Earth? Or has it come from somewhere else? Is the positive polarity reaching out to the Earth? I guess I’m trying to find where the initial recognition was made, of the need for light. Was it from those who are of the light? Or from those who have negative polarity?
I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my sister. The call for light has long emanated from those within this planetary influence who have chosen for themselves the service-to-others polarity. This choice and the following of this choice is likened unto a call for assistance in journeying upon this path, as any student which seeks to learn any art will learn more efficiently from a teacher. Many are the ways in which the student of positive polarity is taught. Most means are unseen and go unrecognized in the life of the seeker of truth in the positive sense: the many coincidences and pleasant surprises, shall we say, which occur in the life pattern, the dreams of a prophetic or informative nature, the meeting of an entity that changes the life, the experience that appears seemingly out of the blue, and forever marks the life pattern with a note of joy. These are the means by which the call for assistance is answered—and there are many more.
The expression of the mass consciousness upon your planetary sphere, moving in a more positive direction, is far more a function of those upon your planet who have chosen ever more faithfully and steadfastly to continue their seeking for light and service to others rather than any shift in negative entities’ desires, for the desire of those [of] negative polarity exists far past the evolutionary progress which your planet has thus far achieved.
The negative polarity is one which exists with great strength into the fourth density of love, and into the fifth density, the density of wisdom. It is beyond that expression of wisdom and light into the sixth density, where love and wisdom are joined and blended into one, where the negative polarity must needs abandon the service-to-self polarity and shift its focus to that which is the service to others in order to continue the progress of seeking union with the one Creator.
J asked if there was then a shift beginning on Earth where the negatively oriented entities were shifting into the positive side as more positive light seemed to be coming to the Earth. She wanted to know if this was happening and where the positive light was coming from. Q’uo said that for many years positive seekers of truth have been calling for the light and experiencing the synchronicities that affirm the life experience such a prophetic dreams, meeting the right person at the right time, the right book and many other confirmations of the rightness of the seeker of truth’s path. On April 27, 2006, Q’uo spoke of these fourth-density energies that are more apparent as time goes on:
These fourth-density energies are heavily interpenetrating third-density Earth as you know it at this time. The fourth-density energy is unseen, yet its effects are felt by those with a sensitivity to finer and subtler energies that enables them to pick up on these new vibrations.
At this time we shall again take the opportunity to thank each present which has invited our presence in joining your group and in sharing that which has been the fruit of our seeking. It is a source of great joy for us to sing with each seeker the song of seeking, the song of love, the song of the one Creator, experiencing the great mysteries, adventures and joys of the creation all about. We are known to you as those of Q’uo, and at this time we shall leave each, as always, in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.
This morning I used my backpack blower to blow all of the leaves from in front of the house into the parking area on the street, and then I put them in the garbage cans that the yard waste fellow emptied this morning and which were already in this area. Then I ran three errands with my first stop being at Feeder’s Supply where I bought more bird seed. My second stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some food for myself. My third stop was at Hometown Pizza where I picked up a pizza which I enjoyed for lunch.
This afternoon I made a trip to Gaddie’s Eye Center to have a screw replaced which had come out causing my left lens to come loose as well. It began raining as I was driving, and it is still raining now. A true blessing for my gardens from Mother Nature!
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:
October 5
The Sense Of Inner Blankness
I am of the principle of Jesus the Christ and I greet you in the ineffable love of divine consciousness.
When the world seems to make no sense, when the skies are blank of being and the landscape bare of meaningful detail for you, then it is time to turn inward and avoid the distraction of the self in meaningless pursuit.
If there is only a small amount of time to be spent inward turned, it is enough. For the sense of inner blankness is the sense of being lost from the self, not of being lost from the world.
To find the self, one must turn to the Christ within and ask that the great story of selfhood be expressed in yet another way, that you may understand your nature and your birthright and know who you are: sons and daughters of the divine; those who give meaning to sky and earth.
In your troubled spirits lies the dance of the present. May you be at peace within your trouble as you turn within to Christ. In that peace we leave you, 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.
