I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Q’uo quote comes from November 5, 1989:
(Jim channeling)
I am Q’uo. I greet each again in love and light through this instrument. We realize that we have spoken for a lengthy portion of your time and that there is fatigue within the circle. But we wish to offer an opportunity for those present to ask the query which may yet remain upon the mind, if indeed such does. Is there a query at this time?
Questioner: I would ask about what, in yogic terminology, is referred to as kriyas which I experience as resistance within the body and mind complex to the free flowing of intelligent energy as it was given from the Creator. I am wondering if this is largely due to mental distortions which have their root in the physical body, or are they also maybe preexisting physical distortions? And in what way can I work towards clearing my mind/body complex to allow this freer flowing energy?
I am Q’uo. I am aware of your query, my brother. The distorting effects of which you speak are, for most entities, reflections of mental origin which have as their roots the particular bias that has been desired to be experienced as a portion of a lesson or a service within an incarnation. There is the movement through the deeper portions of the tree of mind that is made as one enters into the meditative state and begins to contact those deeper portions of mind. One experiences this contact as an increase in one’s vibratory rate or awareness of this nature of being. One also passes through the area in which the perceptions have been formed and reside, upon a subconscious level, and refracts a portion of this light energy.
These symbolic experiences that, in effect, cause a resistance to the available and increasing energy of intelligence contacted may be seen in their more expansive nature, shall we say, by observing the energy centers affected and the type of expression that occurs within the life pattern in the daily round of activities as a result of this kind of distortion, which is also an opportunity to become more aware of a facet of the being that seeks balance.
Thus, one may observe the daily round of activities in a regularized fashion so that those experiences which register in a polarized form, either toward the positive or the negative, in personal terms, may be noted and used as seed for meditation, so that greater understanding of that facet of the self might be achieved and might be applied to the life experience in a more conscious fashion when similar catalytic circumstances present themselves once again.
This kind of review of the daily experience has the effect of illumination in that the self becomes informed. It has the effect of allowing for balance to occur within the total being as well as the effect of providing the opportunity for forgiveness to be offered to other selves and also the self, which indeed deserves this kind of inner acceptance and requires such in order for the movement from that point to be made.
Questioner asked about the kriyas that he experienced as resistance in his mind and body to the flow of intelligent energy from the Creator. He wanted to know if this resistance was in his mind or in his body, and what could he do to clear his mind/body complex to allow a freer flowing energy. Q’uo responded by saying that these distortions were mental in nature and reflected either a lesson or a service that was being distorted in one of the energy centers as Questioner was going through his daily round of activities. So Q’uo suggested that Questioner use these distortions as a focus in meditation to see how the balancing of these distortions might be accomplished. Q’uo said that such balancing would allow forgiveness of the self and other selves so that progress could be made in the spiritual journey. In 5.2, Ra gave the balancing exercises that could be used by Questioner in balancing his mental distortions:
To begin to master the concept of mental discipline it is necessary to examine the self. The polarity of your dimension must be internalized. Where you find patience within your mind you must consciously find the corresponding impatience and vice versa. Each thought that a being has, has in its turn an antithesis. The disciplines of the mind involve, first of all, identifying both those things of which you approve and those things of which you disapprove within yourself, and then balancing each and every positive and negative charge with its equal. The mind contains all things. Therefore, you must discover this completeness within yourself.
The second mental discipline is acceptance of the completeness within your consciousness. It is not for a being of polarity in the physical consciousness to pick and choose among attributes, thus building the roles that cause blockages and confusions in the already-distorted mind complex. Each acceptance smoothes part of the many distortions that the faculty you call judgment engenders.
The third discipline of the mind is a repetition of the first but with the gaze outward towards the fellow entities that it meets. In each entity there exists completeness. Thus, the ability to understand each balance is necessary. When you view patience, you are responsible for mirroring in your mental understanding, patience/impatience. When you view impatience, it is necessary for your mental configuration of understanding to be impatience/patience. We use this as a simple example. Most configurations of mind have many facets, and understanding of either self polarities, or what you would call other-self polarities, can and must be understood as subtle work.
The next step is the acceptance of the other-self polarities, which mirrors the second step.
Is there a further query, my brother?
Questioner: No, thank you very much.
I am Q’uo, and thank you, my brother. Is there another query?
Carla: I don’t know, I guess I’m still really aware that no matter how you look at the illusion, if you are having a bad time, you are having a bad time. Is it possible that a constant state of joy is not so much the focus of this incarnation as the constant search for the proper questions about what is truth? I’ve puzzled over that for many years. It doesn’t seem to be part of the human destiny and nature to be unfailingly happy.
I am Q’uo, and I am aware of your query, my sister. For indeed, this evening we have spoken at length concerning the place which joy holds as that which is ever present and eternal, yet that which is but the oasis upon your long and dusty journeys within the third-density illusion. For if one wishes to progress and to be able to experience a greater unity with all that one sees about one as the one Creator, it is necessary to be in the midst of the catalyst and its effect upon your total being. This requires a forgetting, for the most part, within the incarnation of that unity which indeed binds all that is and of that love which creates and empowers all that is and that light which reveals the true nature of all that is.
This forgetting allows for the self to become affected by the illusion in a manner which will offer the opportunity for the entity to choose more and more to seek, in one fashion or another, to serve the Creator in the self or in others so that an awareness of the Creator might be given to the Creator in a fashion which is unique.
And in providing this perspective and experience, one also expands the ability to accept more and more of the light of the Creator within the being. Thus, you are correct, my sister, in that joy is but a fleeting visitor to those who wish to pursue the work in consciousness that is possible within an illusion that seems so far removed from unity, from love, or from light. This is the sacrifice which you make, my friends, when you enter incarnation.
Yet, there is a pearl, as it has been said, of very great price that may be won by such sacrifice, so that when it is finally won, all sacrifices will seem as nothing in comparison to that great pearl.
Carla asked if it was possible for a person to experience a constant state of joy in the third density, or was it the case that the purpose of the life in the third density was the constant seeking for truth. Q’uo replied by saying that joy was indeed a fleeting part of any incarnation because the veil of forgetting required that catalyst be used to move forward on the spiritual path in a manner where growth into the light and love of the Creator was a slow process and required a great deal of sacrifice. However Q’uo completed their answer by saying that at some point this processing of catalyst could produce the pearl of great price or the realization of the true nature of the self as that of the Creator. On December 16, 1984, Latwii spoke of the nature of the pearl of great price:
What promises of wealth can lure the seeker away from pursuing that pearl of great price which lies buried within its own being? The field is the entity. The price is the continued seeking for that pearl. All which is sold in order that the field of the self might be redeemed is the great variety of temptations that each seeker will encounter upon the journey. It is a journey which seems quite endless and arduous, yet to the devout that makes the journey a straight and narrow path. It ends in a moment when that pearl is found and the entity finds that it is one with all things, that it has traveled a great distance and has found itself within itself and within all beings and things.
Is there a further query, my sister?
Carla: No, thank you.
I am Q’uo, and we thank you, my sister. Is there another query at his time?
[No further queries.]
I am Q’uo, and would take this opportunity to express our great feeling of joy and gratitude at being invited to blend our vibrations with yours this evening and for the journey which each shares with the others at this time. We hope that we have been able to offer a perspective from our experience that will be of service to you. We would, at this time, take our leave of this instrument and this group, leaving each, as always, in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator. We are known to you as those of Q’uo. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.
I would like to let everyone know that we have begun our annual fundraiser for L/L Research, and if you would like to make a donation you may do so at: https://www.llresearch.org/news/2023/annual-fundraiser
This morning I went outside and took the thirteen garbage cans that had been emptied of their leaves into the back yard and filled them with more Ginko Tree leaves. It looks like there are enough leaves left to fill the garbage cans again next week. Then I made an errand run with my first stop being the little clothes donation bin behind PNC Bank where I dropped off five pair of pants. 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 bought a pizza. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I bought some ice cream.
This afternoon I went outside and decided to use Venus to mulch the Ginko Tree leaves behind the garage because there are too many of them to get into garbage cans before the last week in December when there could be snow on the ground to make that process possible. After I finished that project I went to my neighbor’s yard where their lawn service forgot to mulch the Ginko leaves in a path behind my forsythia bushes about four feet wide and fifty feet long. After I had made to passes through this area the belt that turns the blades on Venus broke, so I called Anderson Sales & Supply to arrange a pickup of Venus next Tuesday to replace the belt and service Venus as well.
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:
November 30
The Skin Of Your Illusion
I am the spirit of the living Christ and I greet you in the full consciousness of love.
Take a moment this morning to gaze at the many imperfections of the skin which covers your physical body and know that it is the metaphor for all the imperfections of the world about you.
Turn inward and walk, within the mind, up the dark tower of good intention, resting at the landing to remove that imperfect outer covering. Behold! There is a basin of living water which may cleanse and make alive that which is wholly spiritual within you. Bathe freely and joyously.
Rise, then, step by step, until the dark tower opens into the seat of prayer, where the soul gazes out the window into divine light. Know that that cleanliness of soul which you desire has been seated deep within, so that, as you move down those same stairs and don again the imperfect covering of humanity and go out now into the mundane creation, you shall shine from within with the light of Christ.
For that which is outer in the world or in person is only a covering which partakes of imperfection and which partakes of an illusion. Never rest upon the surface of anything but, rather, upon the light of Christ within.
We leave you in the peace of this understanding and compassion, 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.
