I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn channeling comes from July 5, 1979:
(Carla channeling)
I am Hatonn, and I greet you in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. It is a very great pleasure to greet each of you this evening, and we especially greet those who are new to this group and welcome you to our expression of Love for your people. We are aware that you are somewhat apprehensive, and thus we would like to pause at this time so that we may send you the energy that this instrument has called conditioning in order that you might feel more relaxed. We will pause at this time. I am Hatonn.
[Pause]
I am again with this instrument. We are grateful for your patience in deepening the contact. We now have good contact with this instrument and good harmony in the group.
This evening, we of the Confederation of Planets in Service to the Infinite Creator would like to share with you a little story which you may find interesting. There are many trees, my friends, but this is the story of only one tree. As a small seed it was carried in the clothing of a not particularly cleanly fellow for several years in the cuff of his trousers. It was dark, and the seed would have liked to have grown, but it could not; the environment was not correct. One day at the beach this small, winged seed fell from the cuff of the trousers of the man as he walked, and it lay there on the sand; and again it tried to grow, but it could not, for the conditions were not correct for its blossoming. And one day a wind picked up the seed and carried it far, far inland, blowing it on the winds of change; and over this the seed had no conscious control. When it landed it saw the sun and felt beneath itself the grass, and the rains came and watered the grass, and the seedling put forth its tiny roots.
With infinite patience and with an instinctual awareness that time fulfills its purposes harmoniously, the small seed became buried, put forth young shoots, dropped its leaves, and began the process of living. As it grew, it gave off oxygen to the air, being of service to those beings who breathed that sweet and healthy substance, who lived nearby. Its harvest was collected. And the beauty of the tree, the delicacy of it in the spring, and the beautiful richness of its colors in the autumn made many stop to envision the beauty of nature. We ask you to realize, my friends, that you do not have or should not have pride in your existence or your importance, for that which you are you are because of the winds of change working upon that which is instinctually yours. You, unlike the tree, my friends…
Hatonn wanted to share a story with this group about the seed of a tree. Hatonn began by saying this evening, we would like to share with you a story which you may find interesting, so there are many trees, but this is the story of one tree, and as a small seed it was carried in the clothing of a not particularly cleanly fellow for several years in the cuff of his trousers, and it was dark, and the seed would have liked to have grown, but it could not since the environment was not correct, so one day at the beach this small, winged seed fell from the cuff of the trousers of the man as he walked, and it lay there on the sand, and again it tried to grow, but it could not, for the conditions were not correct for its blossoming, and one day a wind picked up the seed and carried it far inland, blowing it on the winds of change, and over this the seed had no conscious control, so when it landed it saw the sun and felt beneath itself the grass, and the rains came and watered the grass, and the seedling put forth its tiny roots. Then Hatonn said with patience and an instinctual awareness that time fulfills its purposes harmoniously, the small seed became buried, put forth young shoots, dropped its leaves, and began the process of living, so as it grew, it gave off oxygen to the air, being of service to those beings who breathed that healthy substance, who lived nearby, and its harvest was collected, and the delicacy of it in the spring, and the richness of its colors in the autumn made many stop to envision the beauty of nature, so we ask you to realize that you should not have pride in your importance, for that which you are you are because of the winds of change working upon that which is instinctually yours. On October 22, 1989, Q’uo spoke about how the winds of change work in our lives:
The difficulty for those within your culture is that people identify service to others with certain specific skills, which we would call dramatic skills, such as vocal channeling and healing. It is our opinion that each and every entity who has incarnated at this time upon the Earth has a beautiful, loving, and right service to perform, planned beforehand, planned in such a way that one may be continuously rocked and buffeted by the winds of change that accompany realization. This is true whether or not the service is the greatest service of all, that of knowing who you are, and of vibrating in that knowledge consciously, or of non-dramatic service.
[Telephone rings. Pause while the call is attended to.]
I am with this instrument. I am known to you as Hatonn. We are very sorry for the interruption. However, we felt the one known as Carla would desire to receive the call which was just received; and therefore, we helped her to let her chore of turning off the phone slip from her. Due to her absent-mindedness, we find this very easy to accomplish with this instrument. I will continue at this time.
As we were saying, my friends, you as beings of conscious volition over your destiny are unlike the tree, which has a destiny without free will. Its wisdom is given it freely, and it reaches for the sun and is of service to the creation without hesitation or doubt. Those of you who enjoy the density which you call Earth and are subject to the emotions and the difficulties of free will are aware that, in many cases, you cannot intellectually know that part of yourself which is the sum of all that you are. You are surrounded by a dense chemical illusion in which your true identity is rather well buried. But you are quite unique, each of you. There is no, shall we say, tree like unto you. And the winds that blow forever changeably must blow each of you to a different spot before it is the proper time for you to grow and come into your own as conscious servers of the creation.
Then Hatonn said as we were saying to you, as beings of conscious preference over your destiny, are unlike the tree which has a destiny without free will, for its wisdom is given it freely, and it reaches for the sun and is of service to the creation without hesitation, so those of you who enjoy the density of Earth and are subject to the emotions and the difficulties of free will are aware that you cannot know that part of yourself which is the sum of all that you are because you are surrounded by a chemical illusion in which your true identity is well buried, but you are unique, and there is no tree like you, so the winds that blow forever changeably must blow each of you to a different spot before it is the proper time for you to grow and come into your own as conscious servers of the creation. Hatonn went on to say you may think that you do not have the capacity as people to blossom and be of use to each other, but I say to you it is as instinctual for you to turn towards the Light and Love of the Creator as it is for the tree, but it is less easy for you to penetrate the busyness of your daily lives and find within yourselves that seed which is simple, that seed that is that part of you which is a unique vibration of Love, for in order to reach that part of yourself, we believe that the quickest method available to you is daily meditation, but among your people this is considered a difficult thing to achieve, for there is no time, so we ask you to make the time. On November 18, 2001, Q’uo spoke of how we each have a unique way of sharing the vibration of Love:
However, any seeker may simply share the quality of being which each has as a basic vibration, as distinct as one’s fingerprint or voiceprint. For each of you resonates and vibrates in a certain fashion according to the nature of how you seek, of what you seek. And as you are able to communicate that very basic quality of your efforts to another, you share from heart to heart that which is of most importance. Each of you vibrates in a certain fashion the harmonics of love, for from love was each made. If one is able, through the process of seeking, to discover this basic vibration of Love, then there is no greater gift that one may share with another.
If you knew that there was a reward for an action a million times greater than that of money, or power, or sensual pleasure, would you not indeed then pursue a course of action in that general direction? Yet, this is what we say to your people. We ask them to awaken from their journey through power, and money, and the buffeting of the senses by good and bad feelings. And we ask them to take conscious control of that journey by realizing that they cannot direct their lives but only their selves—their inward and substantial selves—to not give a thought to where you are or to what conditions you may be in. From this point, my friends, seek the one simple truth of the Creator: your identity.
Then Hatonn said if you knew that there was a reward for an action a million times greater than that of money or power would you not then pursue a course of action in that general direction? Yet, this is what we say to your people, for we ask them to awaken from their journey through power and the buffeting of the senses by good and bad feelings, so we ask them to take control of that journey by realizing that they cannot direct their lives but only their inward and substantial selves, and not to give a thought to where you are or to what conditions you may be in, and from this point seek the one truth of the Creator: your identity. On November 5, 1981, Hatonn described the nature of our identity:
At this time, we feel the need to share with you the thought of your identity. This identity is very easily lost, for you are strangers in a strange land, as this instrument would put it, dealing with many foolish and petty occasions, words, and thoughts generated by yourself for your learning and by those about you for their learning. This is a confusing density, we can make no bones about it. It is a difficult one in which to remember your identity. And the Light within you marks you as the Creator’s own. No circumstance, no thought, no behavior, no error, no difficulty, no limitation can remove this mark from your very being and you rest in the arms of the Creator. There is no moment in eternity when this is not so.
The illusion is strong and ofttimes dark, my friends. But there is a light within you, and you are the Creator’s own. You shall never be forgotten. You shall never be lost. For all who seek begin to intensify that Light more and more. As your Light becomes brighter, so shall you begin to light the way of others and so may it go. Perhaps you cannot see your light. Many do not. Others will tell you. Trust no words, no thoughts, no behavior in yourself or others, but be grounded in the knowledge of your birthright, of your identity in the Light. Call upon it, speak to it and never fear that you shall be lost from it.
At this point I would like to transfer this contact to the one known as T. I am Hatonn.
[Pause]
(Carla channeling)
I am again with this instrument. We thank you for your patience, and we thank the one known as T for the opportunity to work with him. When an instrument has not practiced for some time, it is sometimes a little while before this type of service becomes easy again.
At this time I would like to open the meeting to questions.
[Pause]
H: I have a question. I keep reading in the literature—metaphysical literature, psychic literature—that there are seven levels, seven states of consciousness, seven heavens, or something of this sort. Is this a valid concept?
We are aware of the question. I am Hatonn. You are no doubt familiar with the concept of quantum mechanics and also with the octave which you may find on any piano. There are in a major scale, as this instrument would put it, seven different notes, having a relationship to each other which is pleasant. And then there is an octave. In that octave there is an identity, top note with bottom and the tonality begins again. Thus it is with quanta, where you have just so much occurring within a quantum; and then there is a leap, shall we say, to another set of configurations. There has often been in your culture the term “seventh heaven” heard, and it is only one of many popular beliefs that there is not only a heaven but that there are various heavens for those who have done various things. Your rather primitive Christian dogma would limit one’s heavens to two—one good and one bad—with a rather neutral zone in between for those who have not yet decided whether to be bad or good. This is not accurate.
There are, indeed, seven levels within the realm within the next dimension or quantum—from you. This plane has been called by Theosophists the astral plane. Beyond that quantum there is a further octave of seven, and that plane is sometimes called the devachanic. Beyond that plane there is another octave of seven, which is sometimes called spiritual by your people. Beyond that plane few among your people who are incarnate upon your planet have traveled. There are an infinite number of octaves in the heavenly music. The number seven, however, is the number of completeness, for that is, shall we say, the scale of vibrations within each quantum.
H asked: “I keep reading in the literature—metaphysical literature, psychic literature—that there are seven levels, seven states of consciousness, seven heavens, or something of this sort. Is this a valid concept?” Now Hatonn said you are no doubt familiar with the concept of quantum mechanics and also with the octave which you may find on any piano, for there are in a major scale, as Carla would put it, seven different notes, having a relationship to each other which is pleasant, and then there is an octave, and in that octave there is an identity, top note with bottom note and the tonality begins again, so it is with quanta, where you have just so much occurring within a quantum, and then there is a leap to another set of configurations, for there has often been in your culture the term “seventh heaven” heard, and it is only one of many popular beliefs that there is not only a heaven but that there are various heavens for those who have done various things, so your primitive Christian dogma would limit one’s heavens to two—one good and one bad—with a rather neutral zone in between for those who have not yet decided whether to be bad or good, but this is not accurate. Then Hatonn said there are seven levels within the realm within the next dimension or quantum from you, and this plane has been called by Theosophists the astral plane, and beyond that quantum there is a further octave of seven, and that plane is sometimes called the devachanic, and beyond that plane there is another octave of seven, which is sometimes called spiritual by your people, but beyond that plane few among your people who are incarnate upon your planet have traveled, so there are an infinite number of octaves in the heavenly music, but the number seven is the number of completeness, for that is the scale of vibrations within each quantum. On October 11, 2004, Q’uo defined the nature of a quantum:
The concept of a quantum, is a concept of, say, a semester in school, or a unit of something that, once that is done, it is done, and one goes on to what one must go on to another quantum in order to continue. In quantum physics, the quantum is as the universe, and it can be filled with just so many items and then that is the complete amount that can fit into that quantum. In your terms we would probably move more through the meaning of a semester that has been completed. The amount of learning which you have gone through, up to this point, has given you more and more and more detail. And as you move into your next field of study, there will be much more detail. We would suggest that what happens is that, as detail after detail after detail is added, there comes a crucial time when, just as in a super-saturated solution, more and more is added to the water. Suddenly, the solution goes away, and a crystal appears, and this is what you are in the process of achieving in terms of your study. The result of this study will be not that you will lose the detail, precisely, but that it will have a certain pattern. It will have a certain crystalline arrangement where it all makes sense, to a certain degree. It is another way of saying that you are not filling in the blanks in a puzzle, you are putting in your information to make a crystal, and that crystal will be a simplified, central structure of awareness.
Does this answer your question, my brother?
H: Yes, thank you—except I would like to know now in which octave or in which level of an octave are you?
Hatonn: Well, we are speaking only for ourselves, for we are only one of over 500 civilizations which take part in this operation concerning planet Earth, the planet of sadness, at this time. We, ourselves, vibrate within the fouth octave. You vibrate within the third. There are many in the Confederation which vibrate in the sixth, and some in the fourth. We have three among our number who, though vibrating in the third dimension, have done so in such harmony that they are able to aid us in spite of the gross physical illusion that they are experiencing and are able to aid us by thought. So, you see, my friends, your condition is not hopeless. Your bodies do not pin you down as specimens pinned under a glass table. It is your minds that imprison you by accepting the illusion. We ask you, therefore, to open your minds to the freedom of realizing that there are infinite illusions, and that your imagination has the freedom and the right to play among them as it will.
H: Well, what did the Apostle Paul mean when he said he was caught up to the third heaven?
Hatonn: The octave directly above you is the fourth and is called by the one whom you call Paul, the apostle, the spiritual kingdom. There are seven levels to this kingdom and, as we have said, its modern or Theosophical term is astral. In this heavenly universe, that which is not apparent while you are in the physical body—namely, the reality of thought and the illusion of matter—become obvious. Thus, as Paul was caught up—depending on his vibration—into the matching portion of the spiritual kingdom, he was able to do that which in his physical body he desired to do most to do, which was to worship and praise the Creator.
Does this answer your question?
H: Yes, except I have one more. If we are in the third octave, what are the two octaves below us?
Hatonn: As you are well aware, when you have your television set upon channel 3, you cannot see channel 2. Thus, we cannot show you the first and second octaves of existence, except to say to you that in comparison to them yours is a much more interesting and beneficial octave—the second octave of existence being two-dimensional, shall we say, and the first existing as the birthplace or point from which the great cycle of being begins.
H: That’s all for now. Thank you very much. I’ll leave it to others.
Hatonn: As you know, it is always we who are the thankers, for to share our thoughts with you is our only desire. Is there another question at this time?
Questioner: Yes, I have a question about reincarnation. Why is it, when we do not know anything about our former lives, and how, if we do not know these things, can we change direction? We do not know what took place before; we do not know what we have to learn and what we have experienced. So how can we… We are chasing around in the dark without knowing what it’s all about. Why are these lives not known to us? Why is there not some light turned on these things?
Hatonn: We will attempt to explain to you the reason for a lack of memory of past experiences. Though it is not an easy concept, you must realize that you are not helpless but are, instead, a person of free will with the opportunity to meditate and to seek the kernel of Love that lies within you at this time. In previous existences, the experiences that you have had have generated within you certain biases. Thus, some people are born with native love, and others without it; some with native goodness, and others without it; some with great native intelligence, others with very little; some with great talent, others who seem quite ordinary. These biases form the personality which you bring into this world. But other than that, you have the opportunity to begin wherever you are and become a loving being. This is the only test upon your level.
If you knew all that you have done before, your mind would be attempting to carry you through all of the lessons you had learned before. This is too much for the mind to deal with. It is enough that you have this incarnation to deal with. The fruits of former incarnations dwell within your spirit. Again, we go back to meditation. If you have a difficult relationship or a difficult concept to conquer, meditate and request that Light be given to you upon this subject. When you can say, “I have no past, and I have no future, but at this moment I hate no person. I love all beings and all those with whom I may have any score to settle, those things I have settled with,” at this point you are beginning to be able to pass the great test of this vibration.
Questioner asked: “I have a question about reincarnation. Why is it, when we do not know anything about our former lives, and how, if we do not know these things, can we change direction? We do not know what took place before; we do not know what we have to learn and what we have experienced. So how can we… We are chasing around in the dark without knowing what it’s all about.

I love all beings and all those with whom I may have any score to settle, those things I have settled with,” for at this point you are beginning to be able to pass the great test of this vibration. On November 21, 2015, Q’uo described the great test we all will take one day:
It is the great test of your planet’s population at this time that one may liken to the final examination which many undergo within your educational system at the end of the school year. This, my friends, is the great examination of the heart; whether it can be opened to those who are called strangers, to those some would call dangers; whether it can be seen that—indeed, as the tuning song played before this session began—is God truly one of us? Is the Creator somewhere observing all of this occurring, or is the Creator here amongst you, within you, experiencing all that you feel, see, and imagine?
My friends, we believe you know the answer to this question. Indeed, the Creator is within all. All entities upon this planet are expressions of the One Infinite Creator that has taken this opportunity to give freedom of will to each of its portions so that lessons may be expressed and learned, and the fruits of the learning of experience may be offered to the Creator as a means by which it may know Itself in ways that would not be possible without free will being exercised in the manner in which it is now being exercised.
The test is a difficult one, and it is to show love in the darkness when you seem to be by yourself, not knowing that, in reality, those who love you on other planes of existence are all about you. Those who love you in this life but cannot speak are, without words, supporting you. All these things you cannot know; but, above all, you cannot know by mind alone that which must be given to you by direct intuition of the truth—the one simple truth, my friends, that we are all one, and that we must love one another. Many of your masters have spoken to you of this, and we can only repeat it. It is the only lesson worth learning. Past lifetimes? They are a kaleidoscope; they are you. But so are your future lifetimes. Imagine yourself as part of a great circle where consciousness dwells within this part of it at this time. But all that you must do at this time is meditate and seek the Love of the Creator. And then, when you have it, send it forth. As we have said, this is not an easy concept.
Hatonn went on to say the test is a difficult one, and it is to show Love in the darkness when you seem to be by yourself, not knowing that those who Love you on other planes of existence are all about you, so those who love you in this life but cannot speak are, without words, supporting you, but all these things you cannot know, and you cannot know by mind alone that which must be given to you by direct intuition of the truth, the one truth that we are all one, and that we must love one another, for many of your masters have spoken to you of this, and we can only repeat it because it is the only lesson worth learning for past lifetimes are mirrors, and they are you, but so are your future lifetimes, so imagine yourself as part of a great circle where consciousness dwells within this part of it at this time, so all that you must do at this time is meditate and seek the Love of the Creator, and then, when you have it, send it forth, for as we said, this is not an easy concept. On July 5, 1981, Hatonn suggested that we seek the Love of the Creator:
My sister, we would answer you by saying that to seek the Love of the infinite Creator in each moment of your life is the greatest service and the greatest learning that can be accomplished upon your plane, for it is the lesson of this dimension to discover the Love of the Creator within all that is experienced within the self, within the life, within the family, within the community, within each activity, each experience and there is, shall we say, an infinite amount of time to discover this Love.
Does this, in any way, begin to answer your question?
Questioner: Yes, thank you.
Hatonn: We thank you. Is there another question at this time?
[Pause]
If there are no more questions that you wish to ask at this time, I would like to attempt to close this meeting through the one known as E. I am Hatonn.
[Pause]
(Carla channeling)
I am again with this instrument. We had good contact with the one known as E, but she is very fatigued, and we feel that it is not, at this time, a good idea to use her. Therefore, we shall close through this instrument. As you know, we are with you at any time that you may request our presence. We ask that you listen to the words of this channel with great discrimination, for we are not much wiser than you—but only a little. We ask that you take what you need.
And we thank you for allowing us to Love each of you, for it is only by Loving you that we can express our Love of the infinite Creator. I leave you in the Creator’s Love, Light. I am known to you as Hatonn. It is my privilege to be with this group. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.
This morning I went on an errand run with my first stop at Bachman Subaru to pick up some 5W30 oil for Stanley as Stanley has been leaking oil somehow these last few days as the dip stick revealed yesterday afternoon. My second stop was at the post office to mail a birthday card to a friend in Nashville. My third stop was at Johnstone Supply to pick up a case of filters for my furnace.
This afternoon I used my seed spreader to spread six bags of grass seed in the front, side, and back yards.
From The Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:
September 4
The Deep Ache For Love
I am of the Spirit of Jesus the Christ, and I greet you in the full consciousness of that divine Love.
The branches of intellect seem to many to be those holding the most fruit. And, indeed, that vine of connected thoughts grows sturdily and well in the environment of the everyday world. Yet the Spirit of Love is most often found within the homelier, seemingly mundane details of work and play.
How do you apprehend the Love of the living God? With your thoughts? With your heart? Or with an ache so profound that it can be said to come from the roots of being? In this deep ache lies the yearning of Love for Love, for each of you is divine, the son or daughter of the living God. May you seek well and without pride for words or deeds but with that divine growing hunger of Love for itself.
We leave you in changeless 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.
