I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn quote comes from October 30, 1976:

(Don channeling)

[I am Hatonn.]… the love and the light of our infinite Creator. It is once more a very great privilege to be with you. We of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator are always ready to serve you. Our service at this time is limited, but shortly the limitations under which we now serve you will be lessened. However, it is necessary at this time to interact in the way that we now use to speak. We are here for one purpose: to bring to you that knowledge that is essential. There is only one essential knowledge, my friends, and that is what we bring you.

[Pause]

(Carla channeling)

I am with this instrument. I am Hatonn. We frequently, my friends, do have difficulties with channels, and it is almost always due to their desire to monitor our message. There are many reasons that this interferes with our message, but most often it is due to fear on the part of the channel, for the channel often feels that they are speaking their own thoughts. The relationship between the source of the Confederation and the channels who are the instruments for that source is one which is difficult to express in the concepts of your language, for we are truly one. We use those concepts which are within the channel’s mind. We play on the instrument that we find. If the instrument has powerful biases, he may find himself repeating, due to the fact that we are attempting to establish better contact through the means of repeating familiar material.

We say all of this due to the fact that even the most experienced channel suffers difficulty in communication due to analysis of our message. We do wish to speak through the one known as Don. So, at this time we will condition him and attempt to continue through him. I am Hatonn.

(Don channeling)

I am again with the instrument. I will continue speaking through this instrument. I was saying that we are here to give to you that which is necessary to know. There is very, very little that is really necessary to know, my friends. But it is necessary to know this very small amount very, very well. In fact, my friends, you must know it beyond any question. Then you must use it to its fullest capacity. This is actually all we have to give to anyone upon your planet, nothing more. It, my friends, is all there is to give, anywhere, at any time. For if this gift is received in totality, you then possess the entire creation. And why, my friends, should we give to you this gift? Because that is part of understanding my friends. When you possess it, you desire nothing more than to give it away. For in possessing it, you can do nothing but give it away. For this is, in truth, the real knowledge of what is behind everything that exists.

[Pause]

I will continue. In this creation, there are many, many facets, many planets, many stars about which they revolve, many galactic systems. And yet each of these things is a part of one thing. That one thing we call creation, is a creation of our thought, for we are parts of the Creator. Just as, if you are the parent of a child, that child is a part of you, so are we parts of the Creator of this creation, this infinite creation in which we presently find ourselves. It is possible to understand the expression that created this creation and ourselves, and act so as to reflect the completeness, the essence of this expression. Then you have all knowledge.

It is necessary, if the individual is to become aware of that knowledge, for him to meditate. There are many things in your present existence that seem complex. There are many problems that seem difficult to answer. In truth, there is no complexity, there is no problem without an answer. All that is necessary is that you avail yourself in meditation to the knowledge that is part of you. It is part of you because you are the child of the one Creator. If you seem at this time to be less than the total understanding of this creation, then it is only because you have desired to be less. For this is, in truth, what was provided for you. All that is necessary for you or for anyone else, is that you become aware of this knowledge. And the method, my friends, is meditation.

This meditation may be done at any time or any place. It is not necessary that you take any particular position at any particular time of day or with any particular group of people. It is not necessary for you to be in the dark or by yourself or even to close your eyes. With practice you will be able to clear the conscious mind of the trivial daily activities which constantly beset it, and become instantly aware of the real creation. The more that you practice this, the more that you will become aware of truth and reality. Presently, the population of your planet is so busy with trivial and transient qualities that very, very few of them are in any awareness at all of the real creation. This is due to an extreme lack of meditation among those peoples of your planet.

There are many answers that can be provided through the process of meditation. However, they all dissolve to a single understanding. That understanding will transcend any intellectual complexity which you may be presently aware of. As I have said previously this evening, we of the Confederation are here to bring you one thing. That thing is understanding. If you didn’t already understand we could not bring it to you. But what we wish to do, my friends, is bring to you that additional amount that you desire. It is up to you, and only to you, to receive it. Each of you may receive as much as you wish, at any time that you wish, at any place that you wish. The process of meditation is so important that we cannot overstress it.

At this time I will transfer the contact to the other channel.

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn and am again with this instrument, and again I greet you in the love and the light of the infinite Creator. I will continue, my friends.

Meditation is important precisely because it is the key to what you desire. In meditation, as you become accustomed to that contact with the Creator, your identity becomes more aligned with the truth of who you really are. And in that meditation, your universe expands, for you no longer feel that you are boxed in a little room, beset on all sides with that heavy furniture of your mind, which includes your problems, your difficulties, and the biases which you hold on the subjects which are of interest only within the illusion. That furniture melts away, and suddenly you are in a very large, very beautiful, very spacious place, in which the sun is shining, in which there are sweet odors in the air, and in which that peace reigns that you seek. We have found in speaking with your peoples that you are most apt to comprehend our meaning when we speak to you in some vivid metaphor, and it is for this reason that we have long understood why the master known as Jesus spoke so often to your peoples by telling stories. And we give you now two of these symbols of our messages that you may perhaps hold with you. We hope that they will aid you.

The first is, my friends, that it is the function of the physical illusion to, as we have said to you, box you in, to make you feel crowded, to press you into a situation in which you feel pressure. In meditation, you release that pressure by changing your identity. You find that there is a great deal of space in which to play and rejoice. And you find that in meditation you do not perceive the crowded situation that you perceive in your daily life. Therefore, we say to you when you are feeling crowded, pressed by the difficulties of life, take hold of the image of yourself as being a completely free dancer in an infinite space which is filled with Light. You can move about; you can view the situation as it really is. You are a creative person; you are a dancer. You do not walk; you dance. You are not in darkness; you are in Light.

Hatonn began to speak about the value of meditation. So, they said meditation is important because it is the key to what we desire, and in meditation, as we become used to contact with the Creator, our identity becomes aligned with the truth of who we really are, and in meditation our universe expands, for we no longer feel that we are boxed in a little room, surrounded on all sides with that furniture of our mind, which includes our problems and the biases which we hold on the subjects which are of interest only within the illusion, so that furniture melts away, and suddenly we are in a beautiful, spacious place in which the sun is shining, and in which peace reigns that we seek, so Hatonn has found in speaking with our people that we are likely to comprehend their meaning when they speak to us in a vivid metaphor, and it is for this reason that they have understood why Jesus spoke so often to our people by telling stories, and they gave us two of these symbols of our messages that may hold with us. Hatonn went on to say the first is that it is the function of the physical illusion to box us in, to press us into a situation in which we feel pressure, and in meditation, we release that pressure by changing our identity, and we find that there is much space in which to play and rejoice, so we find that in meditation we do not perceive the crowded situation that we perceive in our daily life, so we must take hold of the image of ourself as being a free dancer in an infinite space which is filled with Light, for we can move about and view the situation as it really is since we are a creative a dancer, and we are not in darkness, but we are in Light. On May 18, 1997, Q’uo spoke of how we can deal with a crowded situation that makes us feel uncomfortable:

Each entity will move itself upon its path in a manner which is most comfortable to that entity in the metaphysical sense, for much in the physical illusion will seem to be greatly discordant and very uncomfortable. It is well for each to remember that no seeker travels alone, though each may feel great loneliness. It is well to remember that unseen hands—teachers, friends and companions from before time—move with each entity and offer guidance and counsel whenever sought by the seeker. It is well again for each seeker to remember that the course being traveled was chosen, that this is not the density of understanding, it is the density where little is understood, yet within this environment and these circumstances it is possible to so strengthen the will and the faith that the experience gathered is vivid and unique, pure, and of great variety that would not be possible were there great understanding here. Thus, this is the treasure of this illusion. The constant need to understand what cannot be understood builds great strength of faith and will.

There are situations that must be dealt with: this is why you are in the physical plane. And yet there are ways in which this meditative state can be brought to bear upon your waking life. And again, we say to you, your spirit came to the physical plane, as you call it, and willingly buried itself in what you may consider to be dust, for it is so written in your holy works. Yet there was a reason. You well know the reason. And if you [inaudible] we ask that you think of how a pearl is made—a speck of sand that aggravates and pains the living tissue, and yet, in its pain, that which is added becomes a pearl. Your spirit may be polished and burnished until it gives Light to others and to yourself. This will happen, and that it causes pain is simply the way the process works.

There is nothing physical or, as you would say, Earthly, about your emotions, your pain, or your joy. These are but the outer layers of that which will affect you eternally. That which is one thing on the physical level is transmuted through learning, so that your spirit in its real and true nature is nourished by the very thing which seems to you to be such bad medicine. These images we offer you to hold in your mind. But know that these are only words, and that meditation itself is and should be your primary link to your Creator.

Then Hatonn said there are situations that must be dealt with, for this is why we are in the physical plane, yet there are ways in which this meditative state can be brought to bear upon our waking life, so our spirit came to the physical plane and buried itself in what we may consider to be dust, but there was a reason for this, and we can think of how a pearl is made, a speck of sand that aggravates the living tissue, and in its pain, that which is added becomes a pearl, for our spirit may be polished until it gives Light to others and to ourself, and it causes pain which is the way the process works. Hatonn continued by saying there is nothing physical or Earthly about our pain or our joy, for these are but the outer layers of that which will affect us eternally, so that which is one thing on the physical level is transmuted through learning, so that our spirit in its true nature is nourished by that which seems to be bad medicine, but these are images they offer to us to hold in our mind, but these are only words, and that meditation is our primary link to the Creator. On December 2, 1979, Hatonn said that meditation is our true relationship to the Creator:

Most people upon your plane of existence do not spend hours in meditation, nor do they spend hours in service. The meditation is advisable to all persons due to the fact that it is in meditation that you are made aware of your true relationship to the Creator and the creation. It is in meditation that you become aware that you and your brothers and sisters are one being and to serve them is to serve yourself. Armed with this understanding of service, you may then go forth and serve, given power by the Spirit of Love which is infinite.

Before I leave this instrument, I would like to open the meeting to questions.

B: Can you say anything about [inaudible]?

Hatonn: We have spoken many times, through this instrument and others, of the harvest. May we ask what you are specifically requesting? It is a large subject.

B: Will it occur all at once, or will it be spread out over a period of time?

Hatonn: The latter is correct. What has been spoken of as the harvest has already begun, and will continue for several of your years, perhaps as many as would make a quarter century. In fact, time being our most difficult concept to cope with in dealing within you who are within this time continuum, we cannot say for sure that it would last any certain time. But that it will last several of your years we do know.

M: [Inaudible]. What is the method [inaudible]?

Hatonn: When the crop is ripe, the reaper comes among it. We understand the gist of your question. It is difficult for you to perceive that the mechanisms of a cosmic or celestial nature may be on a scale which is difficult for you to imagine. But it is truly said in your holy works that to the Creator, a thousand years is but an evening. It is through the natural cycle of physical birth and death that most will enter their new bodies. It does not take a great many years for all of those on the planet to end their Earthly existence. It will not happen all at once, any more than any natural process happens all at once. It is simply that as you see the leaves upon the trees of your planet falling, although they do not fall all at the same time, there is a period when they are all on the tree, and there is a period when your trees are bare, and the leaves have gone on to the next cycle.

B: So, it won’t necessarily be [inaudible] as much as it may be a very natural time of change for every individual [inaudible].

Hatonn: This is correct. There is very little chance that people will actually leave by ships. This is greatly undesirable. We are willing to consider the possibility under greatly adverse circumstances. We do not feel that the probabilities are at all high.

[Pause]

It is difficult to predict your people. In working with the channels we have among your people we find that some are hoping that we will come [inaudible]. Some are hoping we will not. When your people begin to become totally aware of, shall we say, the jam they are in, we do not know which way the wind will blow. We are, therefore, keeping our probabilities quite fluid.

B: Thank you.

Hatonn: You are most welcome. I would like to say through this channel that, as the Creator will not let any children stumble, no matter what the method of harvesting. For those who are truly seeking the Creator, and in this we include those to whom we are speaking, the road through the change will be straight. The way will be [inaudible], for you are serving what you might call your initiation willingly on this plane. You are binding up your own wounds. Those who will be having difficulty during the harvesting will be those who have neglected the health of their spirit within this dimension, and are therefore forced to, as you might put it, go into the hospital in the next dimension. These people will be shocked, startled, or otherwise disturbed by the events that occur, and will not be able to take their places immediately. However, we wish to share with you at this time that you will be at your best at that time, in whatever dimension you may find yourself. This is true not only of you, but of each who has consciously decided to become a shepherd.

Now Hatonn said as the Creator will not let any children stumble, no matter what the method of harvesting, for those who are seeking the Creator the road through the change will be straight, and the way will be [inaudible], for you are serving your initiation on this plane, and you are binding up your wounds, but those who will be having difficulty during the harvesting will be those who have neglected the health of their spirit within this dimension, and they are forced to go into the hospital in the next dimension, so these people will be shocked and disturbed by the events that occur, and they will not be able to take their places immediately, but you will be at your best at that time, in whatever dimension you may find yourself, for this is true not only for you, but for each who has consciously decided to become a shepherd. On April 1, 1990, Q’uo spoke about how we all have become shepherds to each other:

Within your culture this day, my friends, many, many are those who see spiritually oriented or metaphysically oriented groups as those whose duty it is, whose responsibility it is, and whose pleasure it is to reassure, comfort and tend to the needs of those others within the group. Each is felt to be a shepherd to all the rest, and the world becomes one great pasture, where none ever leaves the fold of the Creator, as the Creator expresses Itself in each person that has stayed at home, for all that the Creator has is the person’s also.

Is there another question?

Don: In the next five-year period, what changes do you see?

Hatonn:  We have spoken through this instrument before regarding changes that are upcoming. We have spoken of the difficulty in California. There is also, as we have said, a difficulty which may take place along the coast of what you would call south Central America.

[Pause]

We have difficulty in giving world-wide information through this instrument. If it is desired by the other instrument, we will transfer this contact to him, for we are having grave difficulty in giving this information.

Don: Just one other question before the transfer: what causes these problems within the planet. How does it affect places like California?

Hatonn: We trust you are not referring to the apparent physical causes? Those having to do with the stresses?

Don: No—the basic cause.

Hatonn: We feel that you are already aware of the cause, but we will attempt to confirm through this instrument your understanding. As all things in the physical are created, so the entity which is your planet was created within an energy nexus which was in balance, in such a way that its forces were harmonious, and evolvement was without upheaval. As nothing stands still, so the entity known to you as the Earth evolves constantly and in what you might consider a gradual manner. Yet it is an even and steady progression which is allowed by the evolving nexus of vibration. When the thought of those upon the surface of this vibratory nexus becomes unbalanced, and these people become fragmented and inharmonious in their thinking, these people, like germs, infect the organism of the planetary vibration. The basic cause of the disease which is known to your scientists by so many scientific terms is simply, shall we say, a virus of disharmony. Health is restored, as it is within your physical vehicle, when the vibratory nexus can cease fighting the disharmony and can restore its own natural polarity of vibration, so that the Creator’s infinite strength flows in, through and out again without hindrance.

Don asked Hatonn what the basic cause of Earth changes were. Hatonn replied by saying we feel that you are aware of the cause, but we will attempt to confirm through Carla your understanding, and as all things in the physical are created, so the entity which is your planet was created within an energy nexus which was in balance, in such a way that its forces were harmonious, and evolvement was without upheaval, but as nothing stands still, so the Earth evolves in what you might consider a gradual manner, yet it is a steady progression which is allowed by the evolving nexus of vibration, so when the thought of those upon the surface of this vibratory nexus becomes unbalanced, and these people become inharmonious in their thinking, these people, like germs, infect the organism of the planetary vibration, so the cause of the disease which is known to your scientists by so many scientific terms is a virus of disharmony, and health is restored when the vibratory nexus can cease fighting the disharmony and can restore its own natural polarity of vibration, so that the Creator’s infinite strength flows in, through, and out again without hindrance. On September 11, 1978, Hatonn spoke of how Earth’s planetary vibration can be aided:

That which is long life is desired by some among your peoples. But in your present vibration it is not truly desirable. There will come a time when longevity is natural. Efforts to precede this natural moment by means of scientific and technological advances may perhaps be fascinating and inspiring to your people. However, when longevity is a desirable tool, which you may use to good effect, learning and growing throughout a longer incarnation, the exterior vibrations will of necessity have, shall we say, ameliorated, and wars and violence and other negative aspects will have lessened in their impact on the planetary vibration.

Does this answer your question?

Don: Yes. Why the California area?

Hatonn: We do not feel that any particular location among your peoples is an effect of those peoples, but it is an effect of many, many of your years of a planetary imbalance in discharge of polarity. For that area which you know as California has become diseased because the place is balancing that particular part of a world-wide imbalance which needed to be corrected. Wars have never reached that which you know as California, and yet the conflagrations among your peoples [inaudible] have caused this sickness. It is not any one people that is to blame, for many of your peoples have cooperated.

[Pause]

We cannot transmit through this instrument, for there are mathematical expressions, many which she does not know. But we say unto you that there are lines of force which exist within the ellipsoidal form of your sphere which, shall we say, predict the location of these particular difficulties. We are sorry. It is very difficult to express through this instrument. Perhaps we can impress this upon you directly. I will at this time transfer to the one known as Donald. I am Hatonn.

(Don channeling)

I am with the instrument.

[Pause]

I will leave the instrument at this time. It has been a very great privilege being with you this evening. We are constantly available. It is only necessary to desire our contact. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu.

This morning, I vacuumed the first floor of my home, and then I went outside and used my backpack blower to blow the leaves in the front yard into a pile. Then I put these leaves, and the leaves that I blew into piles in the backyard yesterday into three garbage cans.

This afternoon I drove to Mount Sterling, KY. to visit my neighbor who took a bad fall about three months ago as she has now been transferred to a care home closer to her son. This was my first visit to her in her new apartment in the care home. She picked out all of the carpets, bed, table, chairs, and pictures from her home and had them delivered so that her son could arrange them in a very creative way. It felt like a huge leap forward from her former room in the Valhalla Nursing Home. She enjoyed all the pictures of my flower gardens and the fishpond with its fish and water lilies. She even looked better than I have seen her before she took the bad fall. It is an hour and a half drive, but I would like to visit her once a month.

From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:

August 1

Tabernacle Consciousness

I am of the principle of Christ, and I greet you in the full consciousness of Love.

As you sit in meditation, you dwell within a tabernacle in intimate conversation with the Creator.

Sit upon the mercy seat now, and feel the waves of forgiveness.

Stand within the holy of holies. Feel and absorb the Light and the peace of that which is the highest and best you can imagine and know.

Allow the strength of the tabernacle of the Creator to enter into your being, to give you solace and comfort but also to give you strength.

For each of you with tabernacle consciousness is the city upon the hill. And the windows of your eyes may shine Light of a blessed nature through your consciousness and into the world about you. Again and again during your day, return for a moment to the tabernacle. Sit quietly in that inner room and be refreshed.

We are with 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.
