I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Q’uo quote comes from May 23, 2009:
The question this evening has to do with what we would call mental imbalances or distortions. They seem to happen more frequently with wanderers. We have received information before concerning the difficulties wanderers and other-home-density vibrations have in blending with this one, but as time goes on it seems like more people here, of any origin, are having difficulty in mentally balancing the beginning change of the vibrations into the fourth density that approaches with the energies of our current culture. Could you give us information concerning why these imbalances occur? Do they occur more often with wanderers? And what are the spiritual principles behind such mental difficulties?
(Carla channeling)
We are those of the principle known to you as Q’uo. Greetings in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator, in whose service we come to you this evening. Thank you for calling us to join your circle of seeking. We are delighted to share with you our humble opinions on the subject of the increased mental distortions of this particular time in your planet’s evolution.
Before we begin, we would, as always, request of you that you use your powers of discrimination as you listen to or read what we have to say. Take those elements that resonate to you and use them as you will. Please leave those things that do not resonate to you behind. In this way we will be sure of maintaining free will and not infringing upon the natural rhythms of your spiritual process.
Let us begin discussing this interesting subject by talking about the nature of the human animal, shall we say, that combination of mind, body, and spirit that together makes up the human being. Left to itself, your body would have a heedless, instinctual life. However, your body is not left to itself, nor is it intended to be left to itself. In your third density the body is a vehicle which carries mind and spirit in a way that is not seen in first or second density. Your present density is the Density of Choice and your mind, your body, and your spirit are coordinated to live in an environment which fosters the process of becoming able to identify the self as an ethically based being and to make ethically based choices that polarize the self towards the north pole of service to others or the south pole of service to self.
It is an environment designed to shake a complacent person out of his complacency and to challenge his presuppositions. The goal of this is not simply to give the seeking soul a degree of suffering, but to set the stage for that great choice of polarity upon which the next two and a half densities are based and which shall only be refined in fourth, fifth, and sixth densities by further studies in love, in wisdom, and in unity. The work you do here in third density is profound and crucial to your future. This process of deciding who one is, what one believes, how one shall make his choices, and how one shall determine the reason for his being here and his hopes for accomplishment within third density are all those things which are very fruitful to contemplate and those things which we would encourage each of you to ponder, each in your own way.
The question this evening has to do with mental imbalances and distortions. Could you give us information concerning why these imbalances occur? Do they occur more often with wanderers? And what are the spiritual principles behind such mental difficulties? Q’uo began by saying they would begin discussing this subject by talking about the nature of the human animal, that combination of mind, body, and spirit that makes up the human being, and left to itself our body would have an instinctual life, but our body is not left to itself, nor is it intended to be left to itself, so in the third density our body is a vehicle which carries our mind and spirit in a way that is not seen in first or second density, and in our present density of Choice our mind, body, and spirit are coordinated to live in an environment which helps the process of our becoming able to identify the self as morally based being and to make morally based choices that polarize our self towards the north pole of service to others or the south pole of service to self. Q’uo went on to say this is an environment designed to shake a complacent person out of their complacency and to challenge their assumptions, and the goal of this is not to cause us suffering, but to set the stage for that Choice of polarity upon which the next two and a half densities are based, and which shall be refined in fourth, fifth, and sixth densities by further studies in love, wisdom, and unity, so the work we do here in third density is crucial to our future, and this process of deciding who we are, how we shall make our choices, and our hopes for accomplishment within third density are all those things which are fruitful to contemplate, each in our own way. In 76.16, Ra spoke of how the Choice of polarity shall be refined for the next two and a half densities:
Questioner: Third density, then, it appears, is, compared to the rest of the densities, all of them, nothing but a uniquely short period of what we consider to be time and is then for the purpose of this choice.
Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. This is precisely correct. The prelude to choice must encompass the laying of the foundation, the establishment of the illusion and the viability of that which can be made spiritually viable. The remainder of the densities is continuous refining of the choice. This also is greatly lengthened, as you would use the term. The choice is, as you put it, the work of a moment but is the axis upon which the creation turns.
As you wend your way through the days of third-density incarnation, you express yourself in a physical sense by what you say and what you do, by how you feel, and how you experience life. On the metaphysical level, on the other hand, you express yourself in an ever-flowing and ever-changing way by virtue of the constant changes within your energy body, as various of your chakras react to those things you are thinking, feeling, and doing. Overall, your vibration may alter greatly from moment to moment and from day to day, depending upon the catalyst which you are experiencing and the amount of difficulty you may have in responding to that catalyst.
However, against the surface of these constant changes within the energy body, there is a deeper vibration which, shall we say, takes the average of your vibratory range in each chakra and creates a basic vibration which is your signature in time/space. We have often noted through this instrument that we would never need to know your names, for we have your identity clearly offered in the vibrations and colorations of your energy body, which are as distinct to us as any fingerprint is to a criminologist. In a way, it could well be said that spiritual evolution consists of reducing the difference between your basic vibration and the vibration of the one infinite Creator, whose nature and vibration is unconditional and absolute love. This journey is taken by each seeker through all of the densities of your octave as he walks, in his own peculiar way, as the one known as Kris said.
Then Q’uo said as we make our way through the days of third-density, we express our self in a physical sense by what we say, what we do, and how we experience life, but on the metaphysical level we express our self in an ever-changing way by virtue of the constant changes within our energy body, as various of our chakras react to those things we are thinking, and doing, so our vibration may alter greatly from moment to moment and from day to day, depending upon the catalyst which we are experiencing and the amount of difficulty we have in responding to that catalyst. Q’uo went on to say against the surface of these changes within our energy body, there is a deeper vibration which takes the average of our vibratory range in each chakra and creates a basic vibration which is our signature in time/space, and Q’uo has often noted through Carla that they would never need to know our names, for they have our identity clearly revealed in the vibrations of our energy body, which are as distinct to them as any fingerprint is to a criminologist, so it could be said that spiritual evolution consists of reducing the difference between our basic vibration and the vibration of the one infinite Creator, whose nature and vibration is unconditional Love, and this journey is taken by each seeker through all of the densities of our octave as they walk in their unique way. On May 7, 2006, Q’uo gave the basic definition of our energy body:
This being said, your basic health is like a default setting. If you were born with radiant health, then that is your factory setting—that is how you came from the manufacturer. Your light body, your energy body, or your chakra system copies that group of settings before birth as part of the integration process of soul or spirit and physical vehicle or body. The memory of that default setting, which is health, radiant and unblemished, is retained by every cell in your body and by every iota of energy in your energy body.
In general, when there is a movement away from perfect balance in any part of the energy body, the key word in looking for cause is fear. There has been a contraction away from the relaxed and peaceful default setting of the emotional and mental part of your physical vehicle. That contraction has pulled some part of your energy body into imbalance. That contraction was in one way or another caused by the faculty of fear.
If you see the perfect body and wellness itself as a state of love, then you will see that fear is a choice which turns one away from the face of love. Therefore, the choice for healing is a choice to lose fear and choose love. Because it is sometimes difficult to drop all fear, healers exist which work with the energy body rather than the physical body. What they do is to offer to the entity who seeks healing the opportunity in a neutral atmosphere to drop fear and choose love.
The vibration of the one infinite Creator is the starting and the ending, not only for an entity within an incarnation but for the entity within the entire range of the octave of experience. Through the many densities, through all of the lessons of each density, and through the countless experiences which together create your personal biases and distortions, you seek endlessly to return to that vibration which is your home, your nature, your origin, and your ending. It is a thirst and a craving within the very depths of your nature, deeper than your thoughts, more intimate to you than all of the trappings of culture, language, and learning that ripple the surface of your waters as you move through the ocean of life. This one original Thought is a touchstone which can be experienced in each density. However, the experience of this Logos comes up into conscious awareness from the roots of consciousness that are placed within the environment of your density in such a way as to enable you to represent and identify Love and the vibration of that unconditionally compassionate Logos.
When an entity has wandered into third density from another density because it wishes to serve at the time of harvest, as so many among your people have chosen to do, echoes and shadows of the home density are retained within the third-density incarnational self. An example of how this works would be that an entity from one environment who has many adventures moves to a completely foreign environment and has amnesia. Over a period of years that person becomes used to the new environment and even creates for herself a feeling of belonging, a feeling of rightness. Yet there is retained within unconscious parts of the self a hidden but stubborn awareness that there is a different way, an alternate way to be and to conceive of life.
Now Q’uo said the vibration of the one infinite Creator is the starting and the ending, not only for an entity within an incarnation but for the entity within the range of the octave of experience, and through the lessons of each density, and through the experiences which create our distortions, we seek to return to that vibration which is our home, our nature, and our ending since it is a craving within the depths of our nature, deeper than our thoughts, more intimate than all of the trappings of language and learning that ripple the surface of our waters as we move through the ocean of life, and this one original Thought is a touchstone which can be experienced in each density, but the experience of this Logos comes up into conscious awareness from the roots of consciousness that are placed within the environment of our density in such a way as to enable us to identify Love and the vibration of that unconditionally compassionate Logos. Then Q’uo said when we have wandered into third density from another density because we wish to serve at the time of harvest, as many among our people have chosen to do, echoes of the home density are retained within our third-density self, and an example of how this works would be that an entity from one environment who has many adventures moves to a foreign environment and has amnesia, so over a period of years we become used to the new environment and create for our self a feeling of belonging, yet there is within the unconscious parts of our self a hidden awareness that there is an alternate way to be and to conceive of life. On September 22, 2009, Q’uo spoke of one of the functions of our roots of consciousness:
The energies of Love and Light that we have discussed previously that are so richly filled in silence are those energies of a very deep nature, communicating with the roots of consciousness within you, that consciousness that you share with all that is. Within this consciousness lie energies that are as rivers, lakes, and oceans. You tap into them with your emotions thusly. As you go through your day, if there is little emotion felt then you do not impress or call these deep-flowing waters upward into the conscious mind.
However, my brother, it is rare that there is a day in which there are not those emotional responses to catalyst that do reach an intensity that calls to those archetypal waters in the roots of mind. The response to those emotions and events felt and seen in your day build up until, within your sleeping time, there is that response from deep within you which is called a dream.
Dreams are gifts of spirit. When one’s emotions are muddied, the dreams may well also be muddied and shallow. However, when one is on a spiritual path and has developed practices such as you have developed, the events of each day have a tendency to become more lucid and to reach down with a refined emotional energy so that the messages within dreams can bubble up in a clearer and more lucid fashion into your conscious mind.
In a way, moving into third-density incarnation is a type of amnesia, in that the veil of forgetting drops, so that one is veiled from his memories of who he is and why he came here to this interesting but somewhat difficult place called Planet Earth in third density. This overlay of memory can indeed create within the incarnation of the wanderer a heightened tendency towards an inability to cope well with the surrounding environment of Planet Earth. In some cases there is even a conscious awareness that “This is not my home; this is not the place from which I sprung.” And that feeling of being isolated in a strange land can create a lot of fear and contraction. The self becomes defended in order to survive. Adjustments are made which enable the entity to survive, to some extent, within the surrounding milieu of earthly life. And yet, in order to survive, the focus has been narrowed, the defenses have thickened and hardened, and there is that tendency to create a self-generated reality within which the entity can actually survive, or feels that he can survive.
This increase in distortion sometimes means that for the wanderer there is a heightened difficulty in remaining undefended and keeping the energy body open and flowing. This is a self-perpetuating distortion in that the more the energy body is contracted in fear and defended against the feelings of things not being right, the less energy is able to move through the lower chakras of the energy body into the heart, and the less able the entity is to cope with these feelings. So, as life moves forward and the incarnation ripens, there is a natural tendency for this self to become more rather than less distorted, more rather than less defended, and less rather than more able to make use of the environment of this Density of Choice.
Q’uo went on to say moving into third-density incarnation is a type of amnesia, in that the veil of forgetting drops, so that we are veiled from our memories of who we are and why we came to this difficult place called Earth in third density, and this overlay of memory can create within the incarnation of a wanderer a tendency towards an inability to cope with the environment of Earth, and in some cases there is even an awareness that “This is not my home; this is not the place from which I sprung,” and that feeling of being isolated in a strange land can create a lot of fear and contraction, so our self becomes defended in order to survive, and adjustments are made which enable us to survive within the vibrations of Earthly life, but in order to survive the focus has been narrowed, and the defenses have hardened, and there is that tendency to create a self-generated reality within which feel that we can survive. Q’uo continued by saying this increase in distortion means that for the wanderer there is a heightened difficulty in remaining undefended and keeping our energy body open, and this is a self-perpetuating distortion in that the more our energy body is contracted in fear and defended against the feelings of things not being right, the less energy is able to move through the lower chakras of our energy body into our heart, and the less we are able to cope with these feelings, so as our life moves forward and ripens, there is a tendency for our self to become more rather than less distorted, more rather than less defended, and less rather than more able to make use of the environment of this density of Choice. In 12.30, Ra spoke of the problems that many wanderers have:
Questioner: I just had a thought. Do any of these Wanderers have physical ailments in this Earth situation?
Ra: I am Ra. Due to the extreme variance between the vibratory distortions of third density and those of the more dense densities, if you will, Wanderers have as a general rule some form of handicap, difficulty, or feeling of alienation which is severe. The most common of these difficulties are alienation, the reaction against the planetary vibration by personality disorders, as you would call them, and body complex ailments indicating difficulty in adjustment to the planetary vibrations such as allergies, as you would call them.
Our hope in speaking concerning wanderers and their difficulties is not to excuse wanderers or to justify difficulties which wanderers experience. Rather, our hope is to bring wanderers to a state of remembrance. The key to becoming unafraid and undefended is the memory of why the decision was made, in good faith and with a happy heart, to come among those of third density at this time. The decision was made in an atmosphere of absolute compassion and the high-minded and altogether whole-hearted determination to be part of the good of that third density for those approaching harvest at this time. There was in fact competition for opportunities to incarnate and each of those who considers himself to be a wanderer can be sure that his was no idle decision but the result of deep thought and absolute surety.
We would not know what specific words might trigger that initial memory, for it too is behind the veil. Yet there is always a moment of crystalline awareness, a time of lucidity that comes to those who ask to become more aware of their deeper thoughts and their deeper nature. And we do encourage those of you who perceive themselves in these words to turn in faith and trust to their deeper selves and to their guidance and to set the intention to become more fully aware of the guiding motivation which moved you into service in this particular way at this particular time. When one is dealing with a great deal of catalyst and finds difficulties dealing with the environment surrounding him, it is extremely helpful to find this key awareness, this centerpiece of surety. When your experience is that of suffering, it is very helpful to be able to set that suffering in the context of a life of service. And although it does not substantially affect your overall vibration to experience these difficulties, it does tremendously alter the surface experience within your day-to-day life, so that you are far more able to smile and give thanks for the challenges of your incarnation as well as the perceived blessings.
Q’uo continued by saying their hope in speaking concerning wanderers and their difficulties is not to excuse wanderers or to justify difficulties which wanderers experience, but their hope is to bring wanderers to a state of remembrance, and the key to becoming undefended is the memory of why we made the decision to come among those of third density at this time, so we made the decision in an atmosphere of compassion and the high-minded determination to be part of the good of third density for those approaching harvest at this time, and there was competition for opportunities to incarnate, and each of those who considers themself to be a wanderer can be sure that this was no idle decision but the result of deep thought. Q’uo went on to say they would not know what words might trigger that memory, for it is behind the veil, yet there is always a moment of crystalline awareness that comes to those of us who ask to become aware of our deeper thoughts and nature, and they encouraged those us who perceive ourselves in these words to turn in faith and trust our deeper selves and our guidance, and to set our intention to become aware of the guiding motivation which moved us into service in this way at this time, so when we are dealing with catalyst and find difficulties dealing with the environment surrounding us, it is helpful to find this centerpiece of surety, and when our experience is that of suffering, it is helpful to be able to see that suffering in the context of a life of service, and although it does not affect our vibration to experience these difficulties, it does alter the surface experience within our day-to-day life, so that we are more able to give thanks for the challenges of our incarnation as well as the blessings. On September 5, 2010, Carla spoke of our guidance system that helped us choose to move into service at this time:
We’re most emphatically not on our own. We have our guidance system, and that includes at least three angels, your higher self, and any additional angels that you have attracted to yourself because of your work or the polarity of your basic vibration. And you can have dozens of angels around you.
A lot of people in my Christian tradition also find they have affinities to saints, and you can ask the saints to come along with you and be a part of your guidance system.
In this wise also, it is to be noted that when you are as close to the onset of your planet’s fourth-density activation as you are, there is an increasing amount of a kind of catalyst that is the reverse of the difficulties one has as a wanderer. And we feel that this increasing interpenetration of third-density light by fourth-density light has created for all of those upon Planet Earth, natives and wanderers alike, an ever-increasing sensitivity to issues of truth and clarity. The progress for each seeker is, in a way, the progress of one who knows himself better and better. Within third-density life as it has been experienced upon your planet for many millennia there has been third-density light that shone, both physically and metaphysically, and helped you to work towards making your choice of polarity and then maintaining that polarity and increasing that polarity. Ever since perhaps forty of your years ago that situation has gradually changed and it has made things more difficult for third-density entities upon your planet. Your planet comes closer and closer to that time when fourth density shall be the active density and third-density light shall be exhausted.
We are not saying that the sunshine will go away. This instrument was speaking earlier today with those who thought that perhaps on the winter solstice in 2012 the third-density experience would blink out and there would no longer be a third density. We, however, do not suggest that this is the case. We would suggest that the case is that the Light that created the spiritual or metaphysical atmosphere of third density in such and such a way shall be exhausted, and that the Light that is striking your third-density energy bodies shall be a Light of fourth density which you, as a third-density entity, are not wired to be able to grasp without significant distortion. As this instrument has experienced this change, it has been a matter of being completely unable to avoid looking at each and every part of the universal personality which this instrument has which has not yet been integrated into the heart, the mind, and the basic beingness of the surface personality.
Q’uo said it is to be noted that when we are as close to the onset of our planet’s fourth-density activation as we are, there is catalyst that is the reverse of the difficulties we have as a wanderer, and Q’uo felt that this interpenetration of third-density Light by fourth-density Light has created for all of those upon Earth, natives and wanderers alike, a sensitivity to issues of truth and clarity, so the progress for each of us is the progress of knowing our self better , and within third-density life, as it has been experienced upon our planet for many millennia, there has been third-density Light that shone, both physically and metaphysically, and helped us to work towards making our choice of polarity and then increasing that polarity, and ever since forty years ago that situation has changed, and it has made things more difficult for third-density entities upon our planet, and as our planet comes closer to that time when fourth density shall be the active density, and third-density Light shall be exhausted. Now Q’uo said they are not saying that the sunshine will go away, so Carla was speaking earlier today with those who thought that perhaps on the winter solstice in 2012 there would no longer be a third density, but Q’uo does not suggest that this is the case, so they would suggest that the case is that the Light that created the spiritual atmosphere of third density in such and such a way shall be exhausted, and that the Light that is striking our third-density energy bodies shall be a Light of fourth density which we are not wired to be able to grasp without significant distortion, and as Carla has experienced this change it has been a matter of being unable to avoid looking at every part of the universal personality which she has which has not yet been integrated into the heart, the mind, and the beingness of the surface personality. On January 3, 1999, Q’uo described our universal personality:
For, indeed, that feeling that one cannot do enough is permanent within your illusion. It will recur for the reason that one cannot achieve the perfect behavior in one’s own eyes. One cannot ever fully be satisfied that enough is enough. And so, one is left with the awareness that one has this tone or chord of tones within one, but that it too has its place in the universal personality that is the self, that one is capable of comforting the self after all that has been done is done with the pain that remains. One can forgive oneself for being human. One can forgive oneself for not being able to sacrifice the self to the point of death. One can acknowledge, when faced with this catalyst, that the best one could do is not the best, but that is all right. That is as it should be. That is part of the perfection that is hidden within this sea of confusion.
When one has finished rocking and hugging and loving this imperfect being that wants so much to serve, then one can send that child within with a lighter heart by suggesting to the self within that uplifting of the self from the worry of the close view, that one can, by will, step back from the situation and from the emotions to a perspective that takes less into account the foreground of the present happenings and brings into sharper relief the basic principles involved.
It is not unusual that there would be aspects of the shadow side of a personality which have evaded notice. The reason is simple. For most of those focused upon the positive path of polarity there is no desire to investigate carefully or deeply the aspects of the personality that are the robber, the murderer, the adulterer, the envier, the one eaten with greed for what he does not have, the debaser, the one who wishes only to destroy. These are all aspects of the universal self. Each entity has them, and the mark of a truly spiritually mature entity within incarnation is that he has faced his shadow side, has embraced it, has forgiven it, and has asked it to work toward the good. We would suggest that each entity has found it less and less possible to avoid facing those issues in life with which he has hitherto not had to deal.
Now Q’uo said it is not unusual that there would be aspects of the shadow side of a personality which have evaded notice, for most of us focused upon the positive path of polarity there is no desire to investigate the aspects of our personality that are the robber, the murderer, or the one who wishes only to destroy because these are all aspects of the universal self, and each of us has them, and the mark of a spiritually mature entity within incarnation is that they have embraced their shadow side, has forgiven it, and has asked it to work toward the good, so Q’uo suggested that each of us has found it less possible to avoid facing those issues in life with which we have not had to deal. Q’uo went on to say the challenge of the situation is that these awarenesses come in ways that cannot be absorbed easily by our energy body since there is a feeling of harshness, as if these new awarenesses were too harsh to bear, and there is a lack of ability with third-density wiring to experience fourth density in a comfortable way, so there is this sensation of a lack of grace about these new awarenesses, and they seem to offer us hard knowledge that seems impossible to bear, for this reason there are no entities being born into our Earth world that are equipped only with third-density wiring, and those who are moving into incarnation upon our planet at this time have the dual wiring of third density and fourth density, so they have the roots of consciousness and all of the delivery systems of deep awareness coming into conscious awareness that are native to both densities, and those younger entities among us are able to use the Light in a more efficient fashion, yet because of the increased clarity of fourth-density Light and its increased ability to hold information, these younger entities often express themselves as those who have difficulty in connecting with third-density’s common reality. On January 10, 2009, Q’uo described the value of the shadow side for us:
We are suggesting that it is helpful to view the shadow side of the self as the offerer of temptation. We are not suggesting you separate from the shadow side. We are simply suggesting that rather than separating the light part of the self from the dark part, or the higher desires of the self from the lower desires, it is helpful to see that together these two sides of self create a whole. Together the dynamic between light and dark creates that wonderfully unique entity that you are.
In suggesting that you view the desires of the shadow side as distraction and insidious voices, we are attempting to give you a viewpoint which partakes of fearlessness and non-judgment as regards the worth of lower desires, so called. For every shadow energy can, through the application of compassion and unconditional acceptance, be refined to become a wonderful, powerful part of the self which supports the Light.
By giving the action of the shadow side that is upon the surface, that comes to you as temptation, the respect of refusing to stop seeing it as temptation, you gradually are able to reach out to the shadow side and ask it for its help. However, in order to leave the surface of the shadow desires, these insidious voices, and to plunge deeply beneath that surface energy which partakes of judgment, you are honoring those energies and asking them to move into a more purified state.
In short, we may say that this is a very challenging, although a very fruitful, time for those of you now incarnate upon Planet Earth. You have an unique opportunity at this time of cusp for the planet itself to offer within your very being a location and a place that is love. We ask you to be compassionate, both upon yourself and upon those about you, at this time. Spiritually speaking, this is not a time that offers the easy, the comfortable, the pretty ways of experiencing your sacred nature. Those times may indeed come. For that world in which you find yourself, that gift of first and second density, overflows with beauty and comfort. And all within the natural world is in a state of love for you, just as the very bones of your body, in their instinctual life, have an answering and overwhelming love for the environment without it and like nothing better than to dance in rhythm with all of creation. Indeed, the world which is more than human lies all about you as a vast and largely untapped resource for those who wish to regain their balance and to lessen their distortions. We greatly recommend immersion in this world of nature.
Another resource for those who wish to increase their stability within this challenging psychic atmosphere is the help and consolation of the guidance system that you have about you. You have your higher self, in whatever way you wish to conceive of that entity, which is your highest and best self and to which you have access simply by asking. You have angelic help. And for wanderers, there is also the aid of the social memory complex from which you came. All of these loving and caring allies are as close to you as your next thought. And it is the wise seeker who disciplines himself to turn in thought to thanksgiving for this help and to the asking of it, for it is truly said that it is to those who ask that response is given. Therefore, enter the silence, my friends, and ask.
Then Q’uo said this is a challenging, although a very fruitful, time for those of us now incarnate upon Earth, and we have an unique opportunity at this time of transition for the planet to offer within our being a place that is love, and Q’uo asked us to be compassionate towards our self and those about us, so spiritually speaking, this is not a time that offers the easy ways of experiencing our sacred nature, but those times may come, for that world in which we find our self, that gift of first and second density, overflows with beauty and comfort, and all within the natural world is in a state of love for us, just as the bones of our body, in their instinctual life, have an overwhelming love for the environment around then and like nothing better than to dance in rhythm with all of creation, so the world which is more than human lies all about us as a vast and untapped resource for those who wish to regain their balance and to lessen their distortions, so Q’uo recommended our immersion in this world of nature. Now Q’uo said another resource for those of us who wish to increase our stability within this challenging psychic atmosphere is the help and consolation of the guidance system that we have about us, so we have our higher self which is our highest and best self, and which we have access to by asking, and we have angelic help, and for wanderers, there is also the aid of the social memory complex from which we came, so all of these loving allies are as close to us as our next thought, so it is the wise seeker who disciplines the self to turn in thought to thanksgiving for this help and to the asking of it, for it is truly said that it is to those who ask that response is given, so enter the silence and ask. On September 22, 2009, Q’uo spoke of the nature of our guidance system:
The foundation of each seeker’s guidance system is his own higher self, that self who, in mid-sixth density, has experienced all that is desired. When that entity realizes fully that he shall no longer desire or seek to fulfill desires, but instead turn towards the call of the infinite Creator to rejoin It fully, it turns one last time to what you would see as the past and creates a thought form that contains all of the harvest of that which he has learned throughout all of his incarnations in all densities through the sixth.
This thought form he leaves with the developing entity wherever it is, in whatever incarnation it is experiencing, so that at any time he may call upon his highest and best self and ask how to evaluate things and whatever other advice he deems needed.
This higher self is joined by at least three angelic entities. This instrument calls two of these angelic entities the Holy Spirit in the male and female aspect. Others consider the angelic entities to be gurus or literally angels. Some entities who are seeking to serve the Light collect about them as many as a dozen angelic presences or more, all of whom wish to support and encourage that service to the Light which the seeker has undertaken within incarnation.
My friends, as you go deeper into your natures do not be afraid of what you shall find. All of those artifacts of the human personality are merely the surface flower of that seed which is unconditional Love. As you move toward that seed, move fearlessly. For you shall not be appalled when you penetrate that which the one known as Jim called the meniscus of life. The deeper you go into your personality, the less personal it shall become, and the more loving.
So Q’uo said they would return to that of which they spoke at the beginning of this discussion, that the spiritual journey is one in which we seek to lessen the differences between our vibration and the vibration of unconditional Love, and beyond the “wheres” and “whys” there is Love, and we understand what Love is, so we must open our self to Love, and let our self be loved, and in the end, allow our self to drop away those things which are not expressing Love, not asking for changes but allowing change when it happens. Now Q’uo said as we go deeper into our natures, we must not be afraid of what we shall find because all of those artifacts of the human personality are merely the surface flower of that seed which is unconditional Love, and as we move toward that seed, move fearlessly, for we shall not be appalled when we penetrate that which Jim called the surface of life, and the deeper we go into our personality, the less personal it shall become, and the more loving. On August 3, 1997, Q’uo spoke of the nature of unconditional Love:
The great quest for this “pearl of great price” is that quest which, for most, encompasses the entire life, for to open the heart in unconditional Love to those about one is a task difficult enough that it eludes and confuses most. For it is far, far too easy and tempting to take offense, to give offense, to be confused, and to move through the incarnation on unsteady metaphysical feet. However, when one has been privileged to taste that unconditional Love moving to and from one’s own heart, then the blessings of this experience tend to open for one the next step, and the next, and the next so that the opportunity to share this Love is ever present. This Love has a power unto itself that is like no other. It draws to one who expresses it those experiences and those entities which are in need of the service of unconditional Love. Worry not, my brother, about what you shall do, for it is set before you, and it shall be yours.
We would at this time ask if there is a follow-up to this query. We are those of Q’uo.
[Side one of tape ends.]
G: I don’t think there is a follow-up to the main question. I’ll ask quickly if it would disturb the energies if I walk just to the printer to retrieve the questions that I have printed up from readers abroad?
(Carla channeling)
We are those of Q’uo. My brother, it is gracious of you to ask and we shall swirl about you as you make your journey. We are those of Q’uo.
[Pause]
We are those of Q’uo, and would ask if there is another query at this time.
G: J from California asks, “Does it serve the highest good for a service-to-others entity to pray for a successful harvest for the service-to-self population?”
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my sister. The heart of prayer is the setting of desire into a formulated intention, and my sister, if this is your desire and it is that which you feel moved to do, then we encourage you to pray as you feel. In effect, to make the prayer universal it would not be necessary to specify the polarity as being service-to-others or service-to-self, but simply to pray that for the well of indifference there be substituted the ability to find one’s heart’s desire and to polarize towards it. Whether that is service to self or service to others, it would increase the harvest.
May we ask if there is another query at this time? We are those of Q’uo.
G: M writes, “It is understood that the veil of forgetting is necessary in order to make the free will choice to polarize to the positive. Yet as a wanderer who has made this choice in the past, I observe that the veil persists within myself. According to my reading of your words, the veil persists within myself because if it were to be removed, it may infringe upon the free will of others who have not yet polarized. Yet I do not understand why this is the case. It would seem to me that it is possible for me to be fully conscious of both third density and fourth density simultaneously without infringing upon the will of others who choose to remain unconscious of fourth density. Please explain why the removal of the veil in one who is polarized would infringe upon the free will of one who is not yet polarized.”
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. My brother, it would not infringe upon the free will of another self for you to become fully aware of both third-density awareness and the lack of the veil which is characteristic of fourth-density awareness. Rather, it would infringe upon the free will of yourself. You are a certain creature, my brother. It is an excellent creature. You chose to come into third density with its veil of forgetting, specifically because in matters of metaphysical and ethical choice it would throw you completely upon your own assets of faith, hope, and charity. You did not come into third density in order to overcome third density. You came into third density to dwell within this illusion and to serve the one infinite Creator.
Have you had to claw your way into an increased awareness of what lies beyond the veil? We think not. We believe that the moments in which you have penetrated the veil are many, and they are to be appreciated. Nevertheless, my brother, were you to dwell without effort beyond the veil of forgetting within third density, you would immediately obviate the advantages of living by faith alone. When you choose within this veil of forgetting to turn towards love, to live love, and to be love, you have done so against resistance. And in meeting and working with this resistance, you have tempered your soul and have done the work which you came to do.
Thusly, my brother, we would say that it is not a matter of infringing upon the free will of another that keeps you from being able to dwell in third and fourth densities simultaneously. Rather it is the nature of third density that it takes an effort of will, of memory, of desire and of spiritual maturity to live by fourth-density values and to act as if there was no veil. Each time that you act in faith to enlarge love and to be its witness and its messenger, you lighten the consciousness of the planet as a whole. And it was for this that you came, my brother. We thank the one known as M for this query and appreciate the energies which provoked the question.
May we ask if there is a final query at this time? We are those of Q’uo.
G: There is one from C who says, “I am engaged in creating biodegradable coffins to give people the natural alternative for burial. I would like to know if this work that I am doing is helpful to the overall effort of our collective spiritual evolution. Please offer any thoughts which do not infringe on my free will and discuss any spiritual principles that may help me to think about this.”
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my sister. When actions are accomplished within your Earth world, they have their surface aspects and those more subtle aspects which are involved in your motivations for and hopes for acting in such and such a way. While the surface aspects of your query do not lend themselves to spiritual import, since it is a matter of a physical vehicle moving towards the dust from which it came, regardless of how it is housed, nevertheless there are substantial benefits which have to do with the motivations for making this product available. The motivation, we feel, was the desire to express the unity of all things and no more central spiritual principle can be involved in a decision to act upon your planet. The creation of biodegradable houses for the dead creates the inference that it is well to return to the dust in a complete and utter way, not defended against the natural processes of disintegration of the body, but embracing them. Consequently, this action, as this product is made available, is one which invokes the awareness that all is one and that all is love.
We, therefore, praise this motivation and the spiritual principles underlying the decision to create this product, my sister, and feel that your creativity in bringing a sacredness to those aspects of life which are not seen to be sacred in the common run is an excellent way of showing love to the world about you and expressing your awareness of the unity of all.
This energy of this group wanes and it is time to take our leave of you. We would thank you with all of our hearts for creating this moment of silence and seeking of the truth. It has been a privilege for us to exercise our service by sharing our thoughts with you and we thank you for this opportunity. We leave this instrument and this group rejoicing and giving thanks. We leave you in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator. We are known to you as the principle of Q’uo. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu, borragus.
This morning I ran a couple of errands with my first stop being at Paul’s Fruit Market to buy some food for myself. The second stop was a Walgreens’ Drug Store to pick up some Tylenol and some boxes of Kleenexes.
This afternoon I ran more errands with my first stop being at Thieneman’s Nursery to buy three flats of Begonias in various colors. My second stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store to drop of a prescription that I forgot on my first errand run.
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:
May 16
Go Abroad In Happiness
I am of the principle of Jesus the Christ, and I greet you in the full consciousness of Love.
Be it known that happiness is not necessarily a burden.
We say this because we find this instrument, this morning, bemoaning the awkwardness of a happy spirit which does not seem to produce the fruits that an unhappy spirit produces.
The Spirit is with each always, not only in times of trouble but also in times of rejoicing. It is the soul’s difficulty that in times of happiness it is far easier to become oblivious to the wants and needs of the spirit within. The spirit within would always be giving. And, indeed, the happy soul is often content to stay at home amidst the accoutrements of living which have produced such contentment.
Therefore, go abroad in happiness, sensitive as always to the winds that blow from the spirit saying, “Come hither! Touch, feel and sense the Spirit at work in and through each soul!”
We hope we leave you in a state of readiness; readiness to turn outward to others and inward to God. In that balance lies peace, now and forever. 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.
