I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn quote comes from July 18, 1976:
(Carla channeling)
Hatonn: Greetings, my friends, in the love and light of the infinite Creator. I am a voice of Love, known to you as Hatonn. And, as always, it is my privilege to be with you this evening. Yes, I am Love, my friends. You are Love. And we are one. To give you a sense of the immediacy of that truth is very difficult, and yet unless Love is alive and immediate in your experience, you may search forever without truly understanding the object of your search.
There is a tree outside your dwelling, my friends. And on this tree are many, many leaves. And some of these leaves are almost perfect. Their shape is completely symmetrical, and their color is beautifully green, as it should be. And there is no mark or damage, and all within this particular leaf is perfect. And on the same tree, other leaves have been damaged by insects, or they have grown in a crooked manner, or their coloration is not as it is expected to be. And yet these are not good leaves and bad leaves. For within them, each, is the same perfect leaf, which is not separate from the leaf, as an ideal, but is within that leaf and is the true reality of that leaf.
Hatonn began this session by speaking of the nature of Love by saying I am a voice of Love, known to you as Hatonn, and it is my privilege to be with you this evening, and I am Love as you are Love, and we are one, but to give you a sense of the urgency of that truth is difficult, yet unless Love is alive and immediate in your experience, you may search forever without understanding the object of your search. Then Hatonn said there is a tree outside your dwelling, and on this tree are many leaves, and some of these leaves are almost perfect with a shape that is symmetrical, and their color is beautifully green, so there is no damage, and all within this particular leaf is perfect, but on the same tree other leaves have been damaged by insects, or they have grown in a crooked manner, or their coloration is not as it is expected to be, yet these are not good leaves and bad leaves, for within them, each is the same perfect leaf which is not separate from the leaf, as an ideal, but is within that leaf and is the true reality of that leaf. On February 4, 1974, Hatonn said that we are Love:
I am Hatonn. You are Love and you are Light. You and I are the same. You experience one thing. I experience one thing. But yet we are the same. For this is the creation. We are one. That is why I say that you and I are one and that you are with me.
It seems like a cliché to say this to you, my friends, and yet you will never be free of turmoil until you are able to bring into your conscious experience the knowledge of oneness in Love that you can find in meditation. Without meditation, it is not likely that you would ever discover that unity with the Creator that is the wellspring of true Love at all. And without repeated seeking of this unity, it is very difficult to advance at any rate in bringing Love into your immediate experience. But, my friends, in addition to meditation you need to bring that feeling into your life as you live it, moment by moment. We have said to you before: attempt to form a personal relationship with the Creator, seek the Creator as you would a trusted friend, love the Creator as you would love the most beloved friends you could ever have. True emotion that comes from the heart, personal, deep-felt emotion, is necessary in order to bring to your consciousness the realization that in the Creator you are dealing with the single most important relationship of your life.
Hatonn continued by saying you may think that of the many forms of clouds, some may bring storms, and some may be the beautiful kind of clouds, yet good and bad cannot be said of clouds, for they are all perfect in their cloudness, and you are a perfect version of you, whether your manifestation may be good or bad within the illusion because the ideal that created you is within you at this time, and it is inspiring your every breath, so this is true of all those you meet, no matter what their manifestations. Now Hatonn said it seems like a cliché to say that you will never be free of turmoil until you are able to bring into your conscious experience the knowledge of oneness in Love that you can find in meditation, but without meditation it is not likely that you would discover that unity with the Creator that is the wellspring of true Love at all, and without repeated seeking of this unity, it is very difficult to advance at any rate in bringing Love into your immediate experience, but in addition to meditation you need to bring that feeling into your life as you live it, so attempt to form a personal relationship with the Creator, and to love the Creator as you would love the most beloved friends you could ever have, for true emotion that comes from the heart is necessary in order to bring to your consciousness the realization that in the Creator you are dealing with the most important relationship of your life. On April 21, 2002, Q’uo said that it is important for us to love the Creator:
My friends, is it not foolish to love the Creator that you have not yet met? Is it foolish to seek the heart of Love when Love is that force which has created all that is? Is it foolish to walk upon the dusty trail of the seeker of truth when that trail so often seems isolated and alone, yet when explored fully is filled with fellow seekers and pilgrims who walk that same trail and who seek in that same vein to love without end, to give without stint, and to be in harmony with all that there is? Yes, you build a road. It is a road that is made of things not of this world but those principles and qualities that are the center of the heart of a Creator of Love.
Allow the love for the Creator to build and become more and more personal, more and more real, more and more felt. And then, take that sweet feeling and live it day-to-day. Feel the immediacy of that Creator and share it with the people you meet. This is the secret, my friends. If you can approach each person as someone who is the Creator and whom you may be privileged to serve, your troubles will sort themselves out before you. For Love is always reflected in Love.
Hatonn went on to say allow your love for the Creator to build and become more personal, more real, and more felt, and then take that sweet feeling and live it day-to-day and feel the immediacy of the Creator and share it with the people you meet, for this is the secret, so if you can approach each person as someone who is the Creator and whom you may be privileged to serve, your troubles will sort themselves out before you, for Love is always reflected in Love. On February 16, 1986, Hatonn said that each of us is the Creator:
Within your illusion it is not apparent in even the least degree that each is the Creator, and that Love binds all as one. Yet if you can within the heart of your being draw upon that realization and look upon each situation in which you find yourself with that point of view or attitude, you will see unfolding before you the limitless opportunities to discover Love, harmony, peace, and joy where there seems to be none or very little of these ideals which each shares.
I would like to attempt to transfer this contact at this time and will return to this instrument later. I am Hatonn.
(B channeling)
I am Hatonn. I am now with this instrument. My friends, it is one thing to speak of this that we call Love and yet another to understand it. For, my friends, if you think, you have spent many lifetimes upon your planet in an attempt to learn the lessons of spiritual being, so that you may reach for more understanding. My friends, do not take this lightly, for once you have learned this, there is more and more that has to be undertaken.
My friends, as we have said, Love is all that there is. Now, if you understand this thing, my friends, if Love is truly all that there is, then should there not be only Love that is experienced? [Inaudible] great spiritual, shall we say, uprising that is now taking place about you. My friends, it is not always enough to be only a part, for there are so many that are looking for so much from someone who will lead them and, my friends, someone to [inaudible]. All of you have the ability to teach another that which has been taught to you. But, my friends, you have to truly understand that as you know, my friends, change can only take place within yourself. My friends, you have found meditation a great tool. As you continue to raise your vibrations to a higher level, you will find this tool of more use to you than ever, for truly, my friends, there is no end.
Abide, my friends, in this energy of Love. You will find all that is around you acquires new aspects. And, my friends, as you know, a great part of Love is understanding. Do not judge another, my friends. That is reserved for the One who has made us all. And if we look upon another to disagree, we cannot truly give a loving hand to this being’s free will. I will now leave this instrument. I am Hatonn.
(Carla channeling)
I am Hatonn. I am again with this instrument. I would like to pause for a brief time in order to share with you our vibrations of Love.
[Pause]
I am Hatonn. I am again with the instrument. It is a great pleasure to share with you. We ask only that you share with others as we share with you. For this is the true flower of your faith, the bloom for which you have spent so much time cultivating the plant.
We are aware that the one known as W wishes to ask a question, so at this time we will open the meeting to questions.
W: It’s about the awareness of my dreams, and the bearing they might have on my feelings about reality, and how I can become more aware of the relationship.
I am Hatonn. Speaking through this instrument is easy on this subject, since this instrument has, shall we say, heard our “speech” before along these lines. The story of dreams is a simple one. Your consciousness, as you well know, has no beginning and no end, and as sleep is in its way a brief foretaste of death, the consciousness has no part of sleep. It is doing something all the time, just as it is when you are awake. That “something” is as much related to itself as it always is, and the circumstances only change during the period of sleep of the physical body in that the attention of the spirit is not totally drawn to the needs of the physical illusion. Therefore, it may process other levels of material which may engage its attention.
Dreams are a partial record of the activity of the spirit. They are a reliable communication from spirit to conscious self of the true development of the spirit’s personality. The inability to remember what is happening during periods of sleep is very widespread among your people, for the spirit is hardly recognized, much less cultivated. It is encouraged by us that you make an effort to become more in touch with your dreams. The methods of doing this are fairly simple and basically have to do with keeping a record, so that when you awaken, you immediately write down what you can remember. You will find that as you practice this, you will improve. Further, when one begins to be able to have a good consciousness of self within dreams, one will find this showing forth in a physical control of one’s conscious life. In other words, as you begin to obtain control of your so-called subconscious thought, which is the manifestation of your spirit self, this will reflect inevitably in your daily life.
W’s question was: “It’s about the awareness of my dreams, and the bearing they might have on my feelings about reality, and how I can become more aware of the relationship.” Hatonn began by saying speaking through Carla is easy on this subject, since she has heard our “speech” before along these lines, so the story of dreams is a simple one because your consciousness, has no beginning and no end, and as sleep is in its way a brief foretaste of death, the consciousness has no part of sleep, but it is doing something all the time, just as it is when you are awake, and that “something” is as much related to itself as it always is, and the circumstances only change during the period of sleep of the physical body in that the attention of the spirit is not totally drawn to the needs of the physical illusion, so it may process other levels of material which may engage its attention. In 95.18, Ra speaks about the nature of our dreams:
Questioner: Thank you. A question has been asked which I’ll ask at this time. In processing the catalyst of dreams is there a universal language of the unconscious mind which may be used to interpret the meaning of dreams? Or does each entity have a unique language of its unconscious mind which it may use to interpret the meaning of dreams?
I am Ra. There is what might be called a partial vocabulary of the dreams due to the common heritage of all mind/body/spirit complexes. Due to each entity’s unique incarnational experiences there is an overlay which grows to be a larger and larger proportion of the dream vocabulary as the entity gains experience.
Does this answer your question?
W: Well, what about that relationship with a woman?
I am Hatonn. My friend, it is impossible for us to give you words other than Love. All relationships are relationships of Love. Yet, due to the illusion twisting and turning, it is difficult for you within the physical to maintain within the physical a totally unselfish attitude of pure Love. If you maintain an attitude of total service and Love, the difficulties which you are experiencing will vanish. If all you wish to do is offer your service, your Love, the rest will simply become what it simply is in reality—the confusion of the physical illusion. This confusion is not your fault, for at your birth you began to be taught what to expect in this illusion, and your expectations have been shaped and hammered into you by many, many experience, biases and impressions, all through your experiences so far.
In order to cut through all the expectations and get to reality, it is necessary to refrain from, as you would say, reacting to expectations and hold to the one thing that is true, that is real. And that, as you know we will say, is Love. If Love is to mean anything in a lasting sense, it is to manifest itself as a desire for the spiritual help and service that you can give to any whom you might love. Beyond this, we can give no comfort or advice, for all relationships are based on the need to learn this one lesson.

On November 9, 1977, Laitos spoke of how we can develop an attitude of pure Love:
Love is all about you. You breathe it in, and you are a sentient being, and you cause this Love to have direction, my friends. And this Love that you breathe in and absorb spirals up your energy centers—and we are aiding you and feeling this at this time—and the energy rises as smoothly as you have begun to open the doors of meditation. And as you become a purer channel, my friends, this energy rises more and more smoothly and becomes a pure Love energy as you give it out as freely as it has come to you. And now this energy, my friends, leaps up like flames from each of you and becomes a beautiful white energy, and moves from one to another about the circle that you have made in your seeking this evening. We ask you to feel this energy, feel the unity of that movement of the Love in the circle. Feel the potential building up. This unity of Love my friends, is reality. You are experiencing Love at this time. Now, relax and continue to feel the energy coming in, being directed by the wisdom of your being, being sent to the group as Love energy, and feel the unity.
Is there another question?
Questioner: What is the function of homosexuality?
I am Hatonn, and it is a difficulty of your language that we have trouble overcoming in that homosexuality is not understood as a type of sexuality, but is considered to be, in your language, a type of emotionally strong word. The function of sexuality is to teach service. One is drawn to another of your species and forms a relationship, and in that relationship, there are opportunities for service, or disservice, and gradually, as the spirit grows through this association, you begin to learn how to be of service. Were it not for the drive of sexuality, it is likely that there would not be these intense relationships, and therefore these strong stimulants or catalysts to learning.
Those who are homosexual have had a personality difficulty which drives them in a sexual way towards their own charge, much like a positive charge being attracted to a positive charge. This is due to confusion between incarnations, the previous incarnation being of one sex, this incarnation being of another. But the function of homosexuality is the function of any type of sexuality: it is to enable a person to form an intense enough relationship that he may learn how to serve and how to love; to love others more than himself, or shall we say, to love others more than his personality, but as much as the Creator.

On April 29, 1990, Carla expressed her compassion for those who suffered the difficulties of homosexuality:
Q’uo: Is there a further query, my sister?
Carla: Yes, just one, I don’t know if there’s an answer to it, but I feel so full of love for my friends that come to me—and especially the one known as A, today—but many friends, all my friends, and I just love them so much, and I would do anything for them, and it seems that there is so little that I can do, and it makes me want to cry. I feel this way not only for the people that ask me for help, but people with AIDS, and people that are trapped in socially unrespectable things like homosexuality, which is no sin at all but just a different mode of sexuality. I don’t know what to do with all this love.
Does this answer your question?
Questioner: Yes.
I am Hatonn. Any other questions?
Questioner: What is the general program objective within the next twelve months?
I am Hatonn. We are attempting to intensify our program of Light. We have made contact with many groups and, as you might say, the damage has already been done. Now it is time to get these groups functioning individually in such a way that they are truly Light centers and their individuals are Light bearers. We do not have specific objectives for this time period, although the possibility exists for increased sightings, shall we say, on demand. Are we being sufficiently obscure?
Questioner: Not any specific contact with Earth’s peoples in order to stimulate events?
I am Hatonn: Not at this time. We do not know about the future. The possibility exists, as we said, on demand. It is a matter of the need for there to be, as this instrument would say, ten students in order for a class to be held. We have nowhere near that much demand. If the demand were to be generated, it would be possible, as you well know. We do not count on that much demand being generated, but are aware that it is possible that this might occur.
Questioner: Do you know of any other group planning a more general effort at contact?
I am Hatonn. Yes. However, they do not have our full approval, for we feel that they are treading on the fringes of, shall we say, being too pushy.
Questioner: Well, how do they plan to make this contact?
I am Hatonn. We are sorry, but this instrument does not have the type of contact which would enable us to control her enough to tell you this. We know of the type of contact, types of contact, we should say, that are being contemplated. We do not think that they will successfully occur. There are those that watch and in their watching of this planet, as well as many others, set up vibrations protecting free will, which are not easily undermined. Within our own fleet there are individual groups, what we would call the “young whippersnappers” of our legion, who also advocate speedier methods. But it is our experience that it is only when one responds to a definitely requested need that any true help can be given, and so we, shall we say, older heads are in the majority and prevail within the Confederation.
Questioner: Who is contacting Puharich?
I am Hatonn. The central agency of thought of our Confederation has enabled linkages which make it possible for this intrusion upon the private space/time experience of the one known as Puharich. This has been, shall we say, an experiment, as we have done others. However, we are having trouble transmitting this, but the instrument is cooperating, so we will keep giving it. Puharich has certain expectations. We have had this trouble with many contactees, and Puharich is among the best. It is a matter of dealing in a space/time experience in such a way that you who are of a very rapid age do not become impatient with the expectations. Time is a very difficult thing to deal with in this contact. If I were to explain to you what time is to us, as we transmit to you, it would not be understood. For we are able to, in a single instant, speak to ten thousand people. And yet, it does not seem to us difficult.

[The rest of the session was not recorded.]
This morning I drove out to Anderson’s Sales & Service to pick up my backpack blower. When I got home, I blew all of the leaves in the backyard into places where I can mulch them the next time that I cut the grass.
This afternoon I visited my friend, Connie, in the Providence Care Home in New Albany, Indiana. She has had some medical issues lately, so she was in another room because of these issues. But we had a good time looking at various pictures of my flower gardens. She also enjoyed the chocolate milkshake and one of the bananas that I brought her. We ended our visit with our usual meditation.
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:
July 19
Your Attitude Toward Change
I am the Spirit set apart from the world to do the work of Jesus the Christ. I greet you in the full consciousness of divine Love.
Your reaction to change sometimes resembles your reaction to an open or gaping wound. Many negative emotions are stirred. There is the fear of infection and the worry as to the progress of healing. Above all, change is seen as a negative to be endured and corrected.
The Spirit of the living God does not have this vision of change. And one who dwells in the consciousness of Love shall not have such a negative attitude towards change either. For when one dwells in the world, change is destructive. Yet when one dwells in Love, change is sometimes challenging and always interesting and informative.
Your foundation, that upon which you stand, is that which has been before the world was, has endured through all changes, and shall endure forever. You stand on firm ground.
May your heart be at peace. May you see change peacefully. May you embrace change in peace, joy and confidence.
We leave you in peace, 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.
