I did the Morning Offering and then I got myself ready for the day. The Oxal and Hatonn channelings for today comes from April 19, 1981:
(Carla channeling)
I am Oxal, and I greet you in the Love and in the Light of the infinite Creator. It is a great privilege to speak to this group and to use this instrument, whom we have not used for some time. We are very grateful for this opportunity.
We would speak to you this evening, my friends, about dissatisfaction. In your illusion dissatisfaction is the watchword. There are few indeed among your people who can be said to be satisfied with their condition, either physically, mentally, emotionally, or spiritually. The reaction of your people is to attempt to eliminate dissatisfaction by correcting those items which cause dissatisfaction. If a consumer is dissatisfied with a product, the consumer attempts to cause the producer to correct the defect that is causing dissatisfaction. If two entities are dissatisfied with their relationship, one to the other, they will attempt to communicate through intermediaries, quite often in an attempt to correct the defects of that relationship. If there is dissatisfaction between the individual and the society, many individuals will attempt to correct the defects by correcting the societal bias causing this defect which dissatisfies the individual. If an entity is dissatisfied with himself, he will purchase volumes purporting to give advice and counsel upon correcting the defect within the self!
The mechanisms for erasing dissatisfaction abound and are considered appropriate and normal. My friends, let us consider the function of dissatisfaction. Were we to ask you what the primary reason for your existence is, the answer would not be satisfaction. Of this we are certain, for those who seek will never be satisfied. What then is your goal? We shall not say it for you, but as you may, then reevaluate the virtues of dissatisfaction. When an unthinking being such as an horse or a donkey does not wish to move forward, it is goaded. Consider your sources of dissatisfaction and look within yourselves for the causes, for the defects, for the stimulus to seeking.
Oxal wanted to speak to the group about dissatisfaction. They began by saying in your illusion dissatisfaction is the watchword, and there are few among your people who can be said to be satisfied with their condition, either physically, mentally, emotionally, or spiritually, so the reaction of your people is to attempt to eliminate dissatisfaction by correcting those items which cause dissatisfaction, for if a consumer is dissatisfied with a product, the consumer attempts to cause the producer to correct the defect that is causing dissatisfaction, or if two entities are dissatisfied with their relationship they will attempt to communicate through intermediaries, quite often in an attempt to correct the defects of that relationship, or if there is dissatisfaction between the individual and the society, many individuals will attempt to correct the defects by correcting the societal bias causing this defect which dissatisfies the individual, or if an entity is dissatisfied with himself, he will purchase volumes purporting to give advice and counsel upon correcting the defect within the self! Oxal went on to say the mechanisms for erasing dissatisfaction abound and are considered appropriate and normal, so let us consider the function of dissatisfaction, for were we to ask you what the primary reason for your existence is, the answer would not be satisfaction, and of this we are certain, for those who seek will never be satisfied, for what then is your goal? Oxal said we shall not say it for you, but as you reevaluate the virtues of dissatisfaction, and so when an unthinking being such as an horse or a donkey does not wish to move forward, it is goaded, so consider your sources of dissatisfaction and look within yourselves for the causes and the stimulus to seeking. On February 12, 1989, Q’uo described the purpose of dissatisfaction:
The ability of any entity to move itself along the journey of evolution of mind, body, and spirit is dependent in large degree upon some amount of dissatisfaction, of a kind of angst, if you will, otherwise the entity would remain as it is—happy with that which is and content to be that which it has discovered itself to be up to that point in its own experience. Thus, there is within each entity within your illusion a certain quality that may be seen to be as a kind of self-doubt or self-inflicted perception of unworthiness which can be used by the entity as a motivating factor, shall we say, as it seeks to understand those qualities which comprise the self and seeks to match, shall we say, these qualities with those ideals which it has formed also in a mental fashion as the standards against which all shall be measured.
Observe, from the standpoint of the self outside of time, that you are both responsible for your actions and quite without responsibility for these actions. You are responsible in the illusion for each and every moment, for each analysis of each stimulus to growth, but to be dissatisfied with the state of your dissatisfaction is to carry dissatisfaction beyond the function for which it was intended. When you find yourself dissatisfied, know that the source is yourself. Without condemning the self, clear the mind, step away from the illusion of time and limitations, and do your work, not to seek satisfaction but to understand the stimulus, asking yourself the question: What do you seek? Patiently, humbly, quietly, dwell in this question, accepting your dissatisfaction. The combination you will find most fruitful. As always, we of Oxal recommend that this and all spiritual exercises be accompanied by meditation.

On December 2, 1979, Hatonn spoke of the value of meditation:
You must understand that in meditation you are not trying to contact anything. The idea in meditation is one wherein you realize that you are. Not who you are, not where you are, but that you are. That you are aware that you are in the eternal present. When you feel this, you will feel a sweetness and a closeness to the Creator that comes from breaking through the illusions of space and time and coming into that place where you can simply be who you are. That person is greatly Loved by the Creator. And that person can greatly Love others.
Thus, we consider meditation quite essential. We also consider that as you meditate and grow in knowledge you then have a responsibility to share what you know with others in whatever path may seem to be open to you. As we have said, the path may be big or small, it may be dramatic, or it may be unnoticed. It may be public or quite private, but whatever it is, it will be your intention to give Love and be of service in your little corner of the universe.
You see, meditation and a life of service go hand in hand. We do not suggest meditating for hours each day, for such meditation is valuable only to those who have forsaken the world and have determined to make meditation their life. If you wish to do this, this is permissible. But you were, after all, put into this world to use your hands, and your mind, and your voice for the good of humankind. See to it, therefore, that you see, and do, and say that which you have come to understand in the silence of meditation.
I am a sister of Light known to you as one of Oxal. I leave this instrument, so that another may speak to your group at this time. I leave you in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. Adonai.
(Don channeling)
I am Hatonn, and am with this instrument. I greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of the infinite Creator. It is a very great privilege to speak with you once more and a privilege to once more use this instrument. Please bear with me while I condition the instrument.
[Pause]
I am Hatonn, and am with this instrument. As I was saying, it is a very great privilege to once more be with you and speak through this instrument. We have been watching this group progress, and we are happy to see the harmonious progression taking place in the understanding of what we of the Confederation have to offer. We are always very privileged to work with any group that will receive our contact, and we are very appreciative when groups such as this one are able to put to use that which we have to offer. My friends, our words have been heard by many upon your planet, but very few have put these words to use. They hear the words; they understand the words; but there is more to our communication than the hearing and the understanding. The important step, my friends, is the next step: putting into action that which we bring to you. That, my friends, is the only important step. The first two are necessary; the third produces the result.
We have been watching the people of your planet many, many of your years, as you well know. We have been concerned about their development, and yet it seems that there is little that we can do, other than to attempt to contact groups such as yours, to simply give to those who would seek our Love and our Light. My friends, in your future there will be more and more of your people seeking answers to questions that become apparent to them. At that time, it will be necessary for you to have become very practiced in living and understanding that which we offer. We suggest that you practice at this time living the understanding that you receive from us. It is not an understanding that you are receiving in an original or a new manner, but it is simply an understanding that we remind you of. If you are able to live in every waking moment the understanding which we offer, you will then be able to effectively offer that understanding to those who will shortly be seeking it in much greater numbers.
Hatonn wanted to discuss their contacts with groups such as this one. They began by saying we have been watching this group progress, and we are happy to see the harmonious progression taking place in the understanding of what we of the Confederation have to offer, and we are privileged to work with any group that will receive our contact, and we are grateful when groups are able to put to use that which we have to offer, for our words have been heard by many upon your planet, but few have put these words to use, so they hear and understand the words, but there is more to our communication than the hearing and the understanding, for the important step is the next step: putting into action that which we bring to you, and that is the only important step, so the first two are necessary, but the third produces the result. Hatonn went on to say we have been watching the people of your planet many of your years because we have been concerned about their development, and yet it seems that there is little that we can do, other than to attempt to contact groups such as yours, to give to those who would seek our Love and our Light, for in your future there will be more of your people seeking answers to questions that become apparent to them, and then it will be necessary for you to have become practiced in living and understanding that which we offer, so we suggest that you practice living the understanding that you receive from us, but it is not an understanding that you are receiving in a new manner, but it is an understanding that we remind you of, so if you are able to live in every moment the understanding which we offer, you will then be able to offer that understanding to those who will be seeking it in greater numbers, and this way of life will be your only credentials, for this is the way of the Creator, so we suggest time spent in meditation and contemplation of this principle be allocated, for this is the great work, and we are always available to aid you so that you may aid others, so soon you will have a golden opportunity that does not come too often. On April 19, 1992, Q’uo described how we can receive answers to questions about the nature of reality:
Within this illusion, the life that each of you leads is almost complete covering over of those basic qualities or truths which are the foundation stone of your being. That is, those answers to questions such as who each of you is, how you are related to the one Creator in a very fundamental sense, and how the power of Love moves through each life to shape and form it in a way which is perfect, and yet which to each of you may seem confusing and out of kilter, shall we say, from time to time. There is the possibility of approaching these truths in ways which words cannot begin to assume, through a kind of experience which many of those of your religious orders have called the transformative or unitive experience, where the Light of truth fills one’s being, and one for the extent and duration of the experience is able to become those truths.
I will transfer this contact at this time to another instrument. I am Hatonn.
[Pause]
(Carla channeling)
I am Hatonn. I am again with this instrument. As you know, my friends, to live each moment in the full realization of the Creator’s Love and Light of the original Truth, is beyond the capabilities of even the most gifted monk of your peoples and often among ours as well. Many are the moments in each of your experiences when the presence of the Creator seems far and distant, and the Love that surrounds you seems hidden, as though a great cloud had removed it from your environment. Illumination seems to take place not in a steady stream but in flashes, as if lightning had struck, and for just one moment the presence of the Creator is felt.
If you climbed into a cave and walked into the depths of the Earth, you could travel patiently and long among the labyrinthian corridors of the caverns seeking and searching for a shaft of Light. This is your situation in your heavy chemical illusion. The shafts of Light, however, do appear, and the memory of them is seared upon your brain and upon your being. Do not hesitate, then, to attempt to live your life in memory of these past experiences and in watchful expectation of those in the future, for the rest of your experience is the illusion caused by the heaviness of the earth betwixt you and the Light. Ready yourselves for the work at hand, not as a student for a test, not as a vain woman before a glass preparing for the evening, but as one who, knowing and accepting the illusion that experience offers, yet knows too that the sudden illuminations are the reality and it is no hypocrisy to practice according to the Light gained in those moments of comprehension.
Now Hatonn wanted to speak about the ability to realize the nature of the Creator. They began by saying to live each moment in the full realization of the Creator’s Love and Light of the original Truth is beyond the capabilities of even the most gifted monk of your people and often among ours as well, and many are the moments in each of your experiences when the presence of the Creator seems distant, and the Love that surrounds you seems hidden, as though a great cloud had removed it from your environment, and illumination seems to take place as if lightning had struck, and for just one moment the presence of the Creator is felt. Then Hatonn said if you climbed into a cave and walked into the depths of the Earth, you could travel long among the complex corridors of the caverns seeking for a shaft of Light, and this is your situation in your chemical illusion where the shafts of Light do appear, and the memory of them is seared within your being, so do not hesitate to attempt to live your life in memory of these past experiences and in expectation of those in the future, for the rest of your experience is the illusion caused by the heaviness of the Earth betwixt you and the Light, so ready yourselves for the work at hand as one who, knowing and accepting the illusion that experience offers, yet knows too that the sudden illuminations are the reality, and it is no hypocrisy to practice according to the Light gained in those moments of comprehension. On November 12, 1995, Q’uo described the nature of illumination:
As we all are a portion of this one Creator, cells within the one great body of Being, each may through the process of meditation retire in a single-pointed fashion to that sacred room within and in those special moments of illumination become aware of the nature of the self, and the nature of the Creator, and the nature of the creation as being One.
We thank you, my friends, for our association has been long and as we have said, we are always available to you. Before we leave this instrument, we would open the meeting to any questions that you may have at this time.
[Pause]
I am Hatonn. There is an unverbalized question at this time to which we will give a very brief answer: Love.
I am with this instrument. I leave you in the Love and in the Light of our infinite Creator and in the freedom of Its service. Join us, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.
This morning I went outside and used my backpack blower to blow all of the leaves in the front yard into the parking area in front of my home. Then I blew the leaves in the pet cemetery and the area between the pet cemetery and the fishpond into a pile on the side of the driveway.
This afternoon I went out side and used my backpack blower to blow all of the leaves from behind my home into a pile in the driveway in front of the south side of the garage.
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:
November 6
Offer Sorrow And Thanksgiving
I am the voice of unconditional Love which speaks to the world in the name of Jesus the Christ. I greet you in the full consciousness of that Love.
How many of you, while aching within the heart, must move through the day attempting to manifest the plenty from which that heartache seems to detract? We focus today upon heartache, upon the sorrows of living.
Within your life, within all life that matures and moves forward, there is a balance of sorrow and joy. Allow a knowledge of the kingdom of the Father to touch that septic sorrow. See that pain as the true, sore ache and agony that it is and offer it to Love for Love’s nurturing, comforting care.
You who seek so diligently are not alone. The principles of Love and Light are with each at all times. Therefore, we say to you, “Take your sorrow, your sadness, as well as your joys and offer them up in thanksgiving to the Father, for all things work together to create a balanced compassion within the faithful seeker.”
May you find that balance this day and every day. Open the self to the power of infinite and unconditional Love. We are with each of you, but though we may knock upon the door of your consciousness we cannot open it. We cannot comfort or aid without the turning of the sorrowful spirit to the door and the welcoming in faith of that positive principle of Love. Then over your threshold shall move peace, and confidence, and a balance to sorrow.
We leave you in that balance, that peace, that wholeness that is Love, 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.
