I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. The Q’uo quote for today comes from February 2, 1997:
(Jim channeling)
I am Q’uo, and greet each again in love and in light through this instrument. It is our privilege at this time to offer ourselves to speak to any other queries that those present may have for us. Is there another query at this time?
Carla: We were talking before the meeting about how positive channels go awry, and I was wondering if there was anything that you wanted to add to that discussion?
I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my sister. We find that you have covered those external appearances and experiences which groups such as this group have suffered in the loss of their original contact and its replacement by sources of information that are perhaps other than desired. The only further comment that we would make would be that those who have the honor and responsibility of serving as instruments for contacts such as ourselves would do well to examine carefully the qualities and responsibilities of such an instrument. The exploration of this service is that which is often not undertaken by those who seek to serve as an instrument. It is too often the case that entities are so overwhelmed by the experience that they seek only to continue as they have previously in their efforts at being instruments and channels for information, whereas it is most helpful for each entity serving as an instrument to become aware of the necessity for preparing the self for this work, not only in the daily round of activities and in the type of standards that one wishes to keep for the self, but in the actual performance of the service, that is to say in the tuning of one’s own internal mechanism, the setting of the desires of the personal nature aside for this time of service and the exercising of the tuning, as we find it has been described by this group, the setting of the internal radio dial, if we may use this radio analogy, to the highest source that one can stably maintain.
The ability to discriminate between spirits is also an exercise which is well undertaken by all who would serve as instruments, for it is indeed a crowded universe and many are those spirits who would seek access to those instruments that they might speak, and do as they will with or without regard to the welfare of the instrument or the group to which they speak. Thus, one wishing to serve as an instrument finds that quality within the self that is the foundation stone upon which they stand in the discrimination between contacts. It is well for the one serving as instrument to find that quality for which it lives and for which it would die if necessary, and in the name of that quality, or entity, or concept, challenge those contacts which wish to speak through it; that they ask if they come in the name of—for this instrument in particular—the Christ consciousness, for others, perhaps, Jesus the Christ, for others, perhaps, the quality of love, of service to others, and so forth. When those who wish to serve as instruments have mastered the ability to tune the self and to challenge those entities who wish to speak through their instrument, then we feel that the one who wishes to serve as an instrument has prepared itself well and is then able to enter into this service in a fashion which can be sustained and in a fashion which may truly be of service to others.
Carla’s question was: “We were talking before the meeting about how positive channels go awry, and I was wondering if there was anything that you wanted to add to that discussion?” She was asking how positively oriented contacts with extraterrestrial entities can be taken over by negative entities and be used for their own purposes. Q’uo began by saying that those who serve as instruments for extraterrestrial contacts need to be aware of the responsibilities that come with being an instrument such as how they live their lives as seekers of truth and how they perform the service to others by being an instrument. Q’uo went on to say that this was done by setting aside the personal desires during the time of being an instrument and by exercising the process of tuning one’s instrument to be able to channel at the highest and best level of information that it is possible to maintain at a steady state. Then Q’uo said that it was necessary to be able to discern the type of source that wishes to channel through one’s instrument because there are many sources that would like to speak through any instrument for their own benefit and with no care for the instrument or the group that listens to their message. Q’uo continued by saying that each instrument needs to determine a way of challenging spirits that would wish to channel through them by determining a quality within their own being which would be the basis of their spiritual journey such as Jesus the Christ, Christ consciousness, any saint, the concept of love, or service to others as this would then give them the ability to be of service in the most helpful way. On June 18, 2005, Q’uo spoke of the necessity of the challenging of spirits to be sure that only positive information is received:
There are very many different ways to hear the message of love. Those of the principle of Q’uo who speak through this particular instrument speak only through this instrument. The reason is that this instrument tunes for channeling by asking for the highest and best contact of the Christ energy or consciousness that she can receive in a stable and conscious manner. She’s very precise about that for which she asks, for she wishes to make the best use of her energy and her time in terms of offering clear and transparent information that may constitute a resource for those who are seeking.
Therefore, we as a principle have created ourselves specifically to speak through this instrument. Many other entities are less careful in their tuning and in their challenging of spirits and so you may find time and time again that you are reading a channeled source, and you must put it down because it does not ring true. And this is not the fault of the instrument itself, which seeks to be of service to others, but rather it is the fault of an unclear tuning. Perhaps the channel does not know precisely who she is, and perhaps she has not challenged the spirit which is attempting to communicate through her in the name of that for which she lives and that for which she would die. When this occurs, the unclearly tuned instrument receives seemingly positive information which somehow turns into a fear-oriented channeling, so that you begin to hear ideas that have to do with exclusitivity so that some are included and some are not, or so that some will reach the kingdom of heaven and some will not, or you may hear channeled sources that say you must believe this and this and then you will be enlightened.
If you can discriminate carefully, you may read any source and find the good within it. So, we would encourage you not to hew to this particular channel or to our source as a particular source but rather, as you read all material that is seemingly inspired, to listen for that resonance within of which we spoke when we began our channeling session through this instrument. Trust not the channel, nor the authority, nor the source. Trust yourself, for you know the truth that is yours when you hear it.
Is there a further query, my sister?
Carla: No. Thank you.
I am Q’uo, and we thank you once again. Is there another query at this time?
B: I would like to serve as an instrument one day. How can I practice discriminating between contacts?
I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my brother. The practice of the discrimination between contacts is undertaken best when done with the assistance of an experienced instrument that will work with you on a periodic basis so that it is able to assist you in this discrimination in its initial stages.
Is there a further query?
B: Yes. Perhaps later, since I forgot what it was.
Q’uo: Is there any other query at this time?
V: Are you speaking of working with someone in the physical or in time/space when practicing this skill?
I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my sister. For the vast majority of entities within your third-density illusion we would suggest that entities work with teachers within the third density who are themselves instruments and who are willing to work with those who wish to learn this service.
Is there a further query, my sister?
V: No. Thank you.
I am Q’uo, and thank you, my sister. Is there another query at this time?
Carla: I would bet that P would love to have a message from you. I am pretty sure that she is scraping the ground in low spirits right now.
I am Q’uo, and am aware of your request, my sister, though it is somewhat difficult to speak to an entity who is not present within this circle of seeking and who, herself, has not requested a speaking for her.
We are aware that this entity and others as well suffers its own form of anguish in its current experience. To all those who feel the suffering and the difficult circumstances we would ask that each take a time during the daily round of activities each day and sit in meditation, releasing all the fears, the doubts, the worries of the day, letting these fall aside for this moment, and within this moment seek the presence of the one infinite Creator. Rest therein for as long as one is able and feel the unity once again with all that is. Feel the center once again to the self. Feel the feet upon firm metaphysical ground. Feel again the hand of the one Creator moving within the life pattern. Feel the love and light of this one Creator coursing through one’s being. Feel those special touches of heart to heart that are available in these times of seeking the One. Rest in this nourishing flow of experience, and when it feels appropriate move once again into your third-density illusion. Feel the quiet and peace of the meditative state moving with you and ever available as a resource within as one moves in this daily round of activities that brings the challenges, the catalyst, the opportunity to use that which one knows in the heart, the opportunities to love where it does not seem that love would go, to bring light to those who move in darkness, to become as a beacon, one who gives the love and light of the one Creator to all those about one. In such situations, many are the doubts, shadows and fears that will fall by the wayside as one continues to seek the inspiration of the one Creator in daily meditation.
We would remind each that all that lies before you, you have placed there for a purpose that is of a service-to-others orientation. There is light in each doubtful situation. There is love in each fear-filled heart that can erase the fear and remove the doubt. It is not an easy journey, nor would you wish it so, for there is much to be gained by bringing love and light where there is darkness and doubt. We wish each seeker a good journey through this illusion, for there are many sideroads that can distract, confuse and fill one with fear. But there is always love and light from the one Creator available to each within one’s own heart. Never could it be closer. There seek to find the nourishment that will carry each of you that await on your journey of seeking the one Creator.
Is there a further query?
V: I am aware that dreams give us needed messages from the subconscious, but if one is not able to remember these messages in dreams, is there a way to work in the conscious state to aid their remembering?
I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my sister. The subconscious portions of each entity’s mind are filled with the patterns of the incarnative experience and send various portions of these lessons and experiences to the conscious mind in the form of the dream, that there might be a dialogue with the conscious entity seeking to uncover the treasures of the subconscious mind. In order to be able to work with these dream images it is well that the seeker send a message to the subconscious mind that it is ready to work upon those messages in dreams. This may be done by reminding the self before bedtime to attempt to remember one dream this night, to further reinforce this desire by placing the appropriate instruments to record the dream whenever one is able to remember the dream, whether it is shortly after the dream or upon waking in the morning. It is through the constant repetition to the self, the subconscious mind, that one wishes to work with these dreams that the subconscious mind will become convinced that the conscious self is serious and serious in this desire, and will then begin to release to the conscious mind dreams which will be able to be remembered.
Thus, it is a matter of setting up a dialogue with the subconscious mind and to express one’s sincerity to continue this dialogue by the continued repetition of remembering the recording devices, whether they be the tape recorder, the pencil, the pad, the flashlight or whatever. In this repetition, then, lies the building of a bridge betwixt the conscious and subconscious portion of one’s own mind.
Is there a final query at this time?
B: Is the setting aside of the personal worries as one is about to serve as instrument the same as activating the magical personality?
I am Q’uo, and we would answer in the affirmative, for when one wishes to work upon the experiences and services of an instrument, one is indeed working in the time/space portion of the magical or metaphysical self. Thus, when one is able to see the concerns of the day, label them as they are, see them put in their box, see the box set aside, then one is entering into that portion of the unmanifested self that is called by some the magical personality or by others the higher self. Thus, one is also with this work establishing the bridge betwixt the space/time illusion in which you find yourself now working and the time/space portion of this illusion in which one works as a metaphysical personality.
Is there a further query?
B: Should one work on that during regular meditations?
I am Q’uo. We feel we grasp your query. If one works in the meditative state to set aside the waking consciousness and its concerns in order to establish the magical personality to serve as an instrument it is well that this be done only in a circle of seeking such as this one so that the new instrument has the experience and protection of the experienced instrument and the circle of seeking as well. An individual doing this work alone would be unable to make the initial discriminations to serve in a stable fashion for positive contacts.
Is there any further query?
B: No. Thank you.
I am Q’uo, and thank you once again, my brother. And at this time we would thank each once again for inviting our presence to your circle of seeking this day. As always, it is a great honor and privilege for us to be invited to join you for during this time we are able to partake for the moment in the intensity, the variety, and the vividness of your illusion and are able to serve in our own humble way by offering the opinions and experiences that we have found helpful in our own journey of seeking. We would, however, advise each to use personal discrimination to decide which words we have spoken that are useful to you in your own journey. Please leave behind any word or concept that does not ring true to you. If any word does not ring true to you it is not useful at this time no matter how much it may shine.
We are those of Q’uo, and we leave each in the love and light of the one infinite Creator. We are those of Q’uo. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.
This morning I went upstairs and cleaned Benny’s apartment by using the carpet sweeper on the hall rug, and then I swept up the kitty litter in the room where she stays in the cat tower most of the time and where she has two litter boxes. Then I used the dust mop to dust the hall and two of the three rooms upstairs as Austin has left his cat, Sassy, with me for the two weeks that he, Gary, and Trish will be facilitating the Prague Law of One Gathering.
This afternoon I went outside and cleaned the filters on the fishpond. Then I went around the yard and picked up the large branches that had been blown down by the remnants of Hurricane Helene and put them behind my truck to use the chainsaw on tomorrow. Then I went into the Moss Garden and raked the small limbs into piles and was able to fill four garbage cans for yard waste pickup next Thursday.
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:
September 29
This Holy Day
I am the Spirit of the living God, and I greet you in the full consciousness which is the Love of Jesus the Christ.
See before you now an holy day!
Hold your hands before you and know that if you dwell within the Spirit of Love these hands may be instruments of Love to do divine work in a divine world. Gaze at your feet, holy feet which may carry you to no place which is not holy.
Sense the pounding of your heart and the movement of blood in the veins. This is an holy body in and of itself and more and more full of self-awareness of love as the mind and heart love and dedicate this body to the principle of Love.
Ask the mind and heart to love and dedicate this body to the principle of Love.
You do not know what you might manifest within this day and night to come. You do not know what troubles shall arise which seem so persuasively to point to things that are not blessed. Yet within each abuse of body, mind and spirit there lies that soul, that infinite intelligence which is masked to the human eye, but which is never absent from the spiritual picture of your day.
Know, and know in a deep and final way, that all things tend to good; that all disharmony tends towards love; that all despair tends towards hope, and all loss tends towards inner realization. And embrace each and every aspect of your experience in the firm faith of Christ, seemingly crucified, forever alive.
We leave you in Christ’s own peace, now and always.
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.
