I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Q’uo channeling for this session come from August 2, 1988:
The value of channeling and such information considering the difficulties that any group can run into with the temptations offered by negative entities to deviate from the original purpose of the channeling, and the general value of channeled information for any seeker of truth, considering all the other sources of information that are available, what is the value of channeling, how should one weigh it in one’s total gathering of information?
(Carla channeling)
I am Q’uo. I greet you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. It is a great privilege and a blessing to us to be able to share our thoughts with you, to experience the beauty of your vibrations and to share in your meditation. Because we find we speak not only to this group but to a larger audience, we would also bless and send our Love to each who may see or hear these words, for we come in service not to one, nor to a special group, but to those who call for aid in seeking the truth.
We ourselves seek the truth. This is our journey, a journey we have found to be full of joy, Love, companionship, and power. We may also say we have found the past to be one of many ordeals, one of long discomfort, from time to time, as you would say, challenge and difficulty. Such is the nature of the illusion that you call life, whether or not the choice to seek accelerated spiritual growth is taken. However, with the accelerated spiritual growth that comes through a daily practice of meditation and an honest attempt at service to others, comes growth and change. And there is no change that is not painful to those within material forms. And so we speak from a standpoint of joy, gazing at an illusion in which such suffering must take place in order that the lessons of Love might be learned, for Love is another way of saying the Creator, not a weak love or a romantic love, a family love, a national love, or a world love, but a Love that is so creative it has often been described in terms of fire and passion, a divine passion to conceive a world that would speak to the Creator of Itself. And so, each of you dwells within this illusion of life upon your planet, experiencing each other while the Creator experiences all. Each of you, then, is infinitely precious to the Creator who loved enough to create you and all that there is.
This Loving Creator has given to all within each density of existence that which is called free will, and therefore one may choose to sleep and enjoy the illusion, thinking not of what is beyond, but enjoying the beautiful planet, the companionship of friends and family. This is quite acceptable, for progress will still take place spiritually, but it merely is at a slower pace than some would prefer. We speak to those who would prefer to accelerate the pace of their spiritual growth. Your question at this meeting concerned channeling. There are many difficulties involved in learning. It is time-consuming, and much experience is often needed in order that one may become a clear channel, a channel which may choose carefully its contact, a channel which may find apt expression and do justice to the concepts arising from the combination of that which we are and that which the channel is. And we would speak first in general of the very nature of the illusion which you now enjoy.
In this session Q’uo speaks of the value of channeling only positive entities. Q’uo began by saying we seek the truth, for this is a journey we have found to be full of joy and Love, so we found the past to be one of many ordeals of challenge and difficulty, and such is the nature of the illusion that you call life, whether or not the choice to seek accelerated spiritual growth is taken, but with the accelerated spiritual growth that comes through a daily practice of meditation and service to others comes growth, and there is no growth that is not painful to those within material forms, so we speak from a standpoint of joy, gazing at an illusion in which such suffering must take place in order that the lessons of Love might be learned, for Love is another way of saying the Creator, not a weak love or a romantic love but a Love that is so creative it has often been described in terms a divine passion to conceive a world that would speak to the Creator of Itself, so each of you dwells within this illusion of life upon your planet, experiencing each other while the Creator experiences all, for each of you is infinitely precious to the Creator who loved enough to create you and all that there is. Q’uo went on to say this Loving Creator has given to all within each density of existence free will, and one may choose to sleep and enjoy the illusion, thinking not of what is beyond it, but enjoying the companionship of friends and family, and this is acceptable, for progress will still take place spiritually, but it is at a slower pace than some would prefer, yet we speak to those who would prefer to accelerate the pace of their spiritual growth, so your question at this meeting concerned channeling, for there are difficulties involved in learning, since it is time-consuming, and much experience is needed in order that one may become a clear channel which may choose carefully its contact, a channel which may do justice to the concepts arising from the combination of that which we are and that which the channel is, and we would speak first of the nature of the illusion which you now enjoy. On January 7, 2007, Latwii described the nature of spiritual growth:
And as you continue to move along one line of intention, you are accelerating the rate of your spiritual growth greatly. To balance the excellence of this we would simply offer you the corresponding and balancing dynamic to all intentions to accelerate the pace of your spiritual growth. That is, that the more skillfully you program yourself for opening up to transformation, the more change will seem to occur in your life. Change is often very difficult to process. And so, you may feel, if you contemplate this, that you have done yourself a disservice. This is not true. You have simply asked of yourself that you move more quickly than the earthly part of you might perhaps feel comfortable in moving.
You may have noticed, those of you who seek to serve others, how very difficult it is to serve others, for to serve others truly is to know that which they would desire or require and to give them that which they desire or require without question. This is difficult service to perform. Nevertheless, the instinct for service to others is a sign of wholeness within each who feels it, a sign that a choice has been made, the basic choice that this entire illusion was designed for each seeker to have the opportunity to make. Shall you choose to serve yourself, be numero uno and follow those false images of the self which your culture would give you to wear as masks? Very well. We are with you in Love and Light and honor you as perfect beings. Do you choose instead to surrender that small self, that self of ambition, greed, and hunger, to empty the self of petty things, that instead a greater self may assist your consciousness in more rapid growth and service to others? Very well. That is why we are here, that is why many are here—to help those who do wish to progress.
It is in this context, the knowledge of suffering in general, the knowledge of the difficulty of service to others, that we address the matter of channeling. Channeling is one of many, many ways of service to others. It is a way of engaging the highest and best within the channel in a collaboration with a deeply impersonal source of Love, which we are, that has what we may call the larger point of view. We, as contact, and this instrument are equal partners, respecting each other, experiencing a growing friendship with each other and a respect for each other that cannot be underestimated. This channel is most careful to challenge all spirits, and we are most thrilled that this channel is so inclined, for our service is that which could easily be missed, for there are always those who do not come in service to others, who would wish to take the new channel and move that channel away from the highest and best tuning that is in that channel, the goal being to dim the Light of channeling, seeking and the group sociability that adds so very such to the Light network upon planet Earth.
Q’uo went on to say you may have noticed how difficult it is to serve others, for to serve others is to know that which they would desire to give them is that which they desire without question, but this is a difficult service to perform, for the instinct for service to others is a sign that a choice has been made for each seeker to have the opportunity to make so: “Shall you choose to serve yourself, be numero uno and follow those false images of the self which your culture would give you to wear as masks?” Then Q’uo said we are with you in Love and Light and honor you as perfect beings, and: “Do you choose instead to surrender that small self, that self of ambition, greed, and hunger, to empty the self of petty things, that instead a greater self may assist your consciousness in more rapid growth and service to others? Now Q’uo said that is why many are here to help those who do wish to progress. Q’uo continued by saying it is in the knowledge of the difficulty of service to others that we address the matter of channeling, for channeling is one of many ways of service to others, and it is a way of engaging the highest and best within the channel in a collaboration with a deeply impersonal source of Love, which we are, that has the larger point of view, so we and Carla are equal partners and are experiencing a friendship with each other and a respect for each other that cannot be underestimated, for Carla is careful to challenge all spirits, and we are thrilled she is so inclined, for our service is that which could easily be missed, for there are always those who do not come in service to others, who would wish to take the new channel and move that channel away from the highest and best tuning that is in that channel, the goal being to dim the Light of channeling, seeking, and the group sociability that adds so to the Light network upon planet Earth. On February 4, 1987, Laitos suggested the challenging of all spirits who may wish to speak through an instrument:
However, we might suggest that the means by which you may discriminate between these kinds of experiences is that which we suggested by the reexamination of the challenging technique. The gathering of the self about an ideal or principle for which one lives in a fundamental sense, and would, indeed, give the life, if necessary, is the beginning of this principle and its exercise when contact with thought entities is noticed and felt. Then it is necessary to speak in the strongest mental terms to such perceived contacts and to challenge them with the full force of your belief and the core of your being in order that those of the positive nature may be discerned from those of a negative nature and the nature which might attempt to trick or confuse a contact in any way. Thus, we might suggest that contemplation and meditation upon the core ideal, by which you shall in future times challenge such contacts, be instituted upon a regular basis in order that you may increase your ability to discriminate between contacts in what you would call your future.
How difficult it is to be of service, my friends. How difficult it is to share without pushing your opinions upon someone else, without moving from inspiration to doctrine. Yet, this is the hallmark of channeled material. This is our service to you, to attempt to provide information and inspiration, not that of which is wise, but that of which is compassionate, loving and serving. We speak of the one original Thought to those who would wish to hear of that great Logos called Love, that one original Thought that made in unity all that there is so that you are members, one of another, and all of the Creator. Why would any who wishes to be of service to others choose a sacrificial way of giving? In the beginning many things seem like sacrifice. When a mated pair has a child, the father sacrifices his freedom. He must provide now for a small and fragile entity, a stranger, so he thinks. And what of the mother? Ah, what freedom she loses, what sacrifices she makes, yet the joy of knowing, loving, and sending forth into the world a small being is so far from describable that it would make most parents laugh, for the joy they have received is inestimable.
So it is, in a different sense, with the channeling. There is in the beginning the sacrifice, and always the need for continued faithfulness and persistence, the need to move in meditation enough to gain that infinite point of view, that infinite source of supply that enables the giver to give without tiring. Can channeling help people? My friends, we believe that the answer is yes, or we would not be here. We believe that each who wishes to learn to channel is an unique being, has an unique vocabulary, experiences, and way of thinking. We have one very simple message to offer—the message of unity, of perfect compassion and Love which brooks no judgment, of the reality of peace and joy that is intertwined within the illusion and transcends the illusion also. We urge people in our channeling first to move into meditation and experience peace, quiet and Love until, through meditation, the seeker has become ready to feel well about the self and move on into service to others. There is the beginning turning inward, and we who channel attempt to support that and encourage the daily meditation, the contemplation, the talking with those of like mind, the rejoicing in companions upon the path. When much work has been done to ready the self, when the work is over and all feels easy, then it shall come naturally to each to do some service, or perhaps a cluster of services. The service may be the raising of children, and to the mother, the muse of Mary speaks. There are some who are called to the musical instruments, or to the dance, or to some other artifact of your culture which creates beauty and myth and wonder for those who see it, and they sing, or dance, or move to their muse. There are some few who will feel the call to the special kind of muse, an odd, rather philosophical kind of muse, not one given a name among your people. Shall we call it the philosopher muse? At any rate, some are called to learn to share in a collaboration that is intended both to inspire and to inform. And so, the choice is made, a teacher is chosen, and a program is undertaken.
Q’uo continued by saying how difficult it is to be of service and to share without pushing your opinions upon someone else, yet this is the hallmark of channeled material, and our service to you is to provide inspiration which is Loving and serving, so we speak of the one original Thought to those who would wish to hear of that great Logos of Love, that one original Thought that made in unity all that there is, so that you are members of one another, and all are members of the Creator, for in the beginning many things seem like sacrifice, so when a mated pair has a child, the father sacrifices his freedom because he must provide for a small and fragile entity, and the mother makes sacrifices, yet the joy of loving and sending forth into the world a small being is so far from describable that it would make most parents laugh, for the joy they have received is inestimable. Q’uo went on to say so it is with channeling, for there is in the beginning sacrifice, the need for faithfulness, and the need to move in meditation to gain that infinite point of view that enables the giver to give without tiring, for we believe that channeling can help people, and we believe that each who wishes to learn to channel is an unique being with a unique vocabulary, experiences, and way of thinking, so we have a simple message to offer of unity and compassion and of the reality of peace and joy that transcends the illusion, but we urge people to move into meditation and experience peace and Love until the seeker is ready to move into service to others, so there is the turning inward, yet we who channel encourage daily meditation and the rejoicing with companions upon the path, and when work has been done to ready the self, then it shall come naturally to each to do some service of raising children, and to the mother, the muse of Mary speaks, yet there are some who are called to the musical instruments, or to the dance, or to some other artifact of your culture which creates beauty and wonder for those who see it, but there are some who will feel the call to the special kind of muse, and some are called to share in a collaboration that is intended to inspire; and the choice is made; a teacher is chosen; and a program is undertaken. On October 5, 1980, Latwii spoke of the value of daily meditation:
We again would make the suggestion which we have made so often to your meditation group, that you engage yourselves in meditation daily, that you look within your own being for the signs, the directions, and the answers which are necessary for your survival, that daily meditation is the most efficient means for tuning in to the energy of what might be called the flow of events, and that by so tuning your energy and your vibration into your planetary vibration you might most accurately decide which direction you shall proceed in.
Since the program of learning to channel includes much work in consciousness, clearing lower energies, working with the identity of the authentic and deep self, this process is helpful for those who wish to channel healing or other energies, not merely the vocal channeling. It is always to be remembered, however, that once the training is done, and the vocal channel moves out into the world, there will always be those to whom the material appeals and those to whom it does not. As we have said, service to others is difficult, and it is well to leave any attachment to that work which the channel is doing behind. It has no place in service. However, there are two great aids that you as a channel may offer. Firstly, there is that aid which any which seeks the aid of the infinite Creator may offer, and that is that in the becoming a more and more consciously directed authentic human, each seeker becomes a Light that glows brighter and brighter. Those who move into a group about a channel form this kind of Light in an exponential manner, the strength of the Light being far more than a linear addition of the people in the group could hope to create. Thus, by the simple attempt to channel, the planet has become lighter, the consciousness of the planet has been raised, and the great work is being done.
Secondly, to the instrument itself this service satisfies that desire to be of aid, to be worthwhile, and to be active and caring in the world of spirit. It is an invisible world, and there are many, as we have said, who care not at all for it. Yet for those who do care for the inner world, the outer world is gazed upon with some dismay, and there is the desire to help. For those whose desire is to help by aiding the environment, for those whose desire to help is expressed in political or other social manners we say, “Know yourself and know your muse, whether it be justice, honor, beauty or fairness,” and then ask yourself what relation this muse bears to truth. Truth is what we are here to discuss, to discover, to rejoice at, and to dwell in. Not a truth that can be expressed in words or with the mind, but a feeling tone of truth, a validity of things that begins to be created within each person. Truth is not without you. Without you is a relativistic illusion. Truth lies within you. We who channel to instruments such as this hope to put these thoughts within the mind in order that each may attempt to grow, and at the same time, each may see that all so-called failures and errors are part of the path and are those things to be hugged to the self, accepted, forgiven, and from which it is time to move on.
Now Q’uo said since the program of learning to channel includes work in consciousness, clearing lower energies, and working with the identity of the deep self, this process is helpful for those who wish to channel healing or other energies, so it is always to be remembered that once the training is done, and the vocal channel moves out into the world, there will be those to whom the material appeals and those to whom it does not, for service to others is difficult, and it is well to leave any attachment to that work which the channel is doing behind since it has no place in service, but there are two aids that you as a channel may offer, for there is that aid which any which seeks the aid of the infinite Creator may offer, and that is becoming a more consciously directed authentic human as each seeker becomes a Light that glows brighter, yet those who move into a group about a channel form this kind of Light in an exponential manner, the strength of the Light being more than a linear addition of the people in the group could hope to create, and by the attempt to channel, the planet has become lighter; the consciousness of the planet has been raised; and the great work is being done. Then Q’uo said to Carla this service satisfies her desire to be of aid and to be caring in the world of spirit, for it is an invisible world, and there are many who do not care for it, yet for those who do care for the inner world, the outer world is gazed upon with some dismay, and there is the desire to help, for those whose desire is to help by aiding the environment and is expressed in political or social manners we say, “Know yourself and know your muse, whether it be justice, honor, beauty, or fairness,” and then ask yourself what relation this muse bears to truth, for truth is what we are here to discuss and to dwell in, yet not a truth that can be expressed in words but a feeling tone of truth that begins to be created within each person, for truth is not without you, but truth lies within you, and we who channel to instruments such as this hope to put these thoughts within the mind in order that each may attempt to grow, and at the same time, each may see that all failures and errors are part of the path and are those things to be accepted, forgiven, and from which it is time to move on. On April 14, 2007, Q’uo said that the truth lies within us:
Lying beneath, above, on all sides of, and interpenetrating all of these structures lies that which may be called the truth. The truth lies within you. It is a creature without words. It speaks in silence. It gives information that is far richer and more powerful than any words. It is to that entity who finds their way to the silence that speaks that realization will come. To us it matters not how that entity forms itself up or follows ways to tune itself in order to seek the truth. The fundamental matter of importance is to reach the heart of the self where the silence speaks.
Do you wish to be of service by channeling? By teaching? By offering the self in the deepest way that is important to you, that is the essence of yourself? We encourage you to the ordeal, for no matter what you give to others—and you cannot judge that—you shall daily be working upon that self which in its being is Love itself. It may seem selfish to continue working upon self-realization, to continue working until the self feels entirely self-worthy, self-forgiven and self-esteemed. Yet, must you not Love yourself to Love your neighbor enough to give all that you have sacrificially, that that neighbor, that perfect stranger, that face of the Creator which is another part of yourself—to give to this entity is surely a wonder and a blessing. And yet that entity shall give back to you more than you give away, so the end of the suffering is always joy. Now, we know there have been many who have had the psychic greeting of what this instrument would call the loyal opposition, those who serve in Love and Light to the infinite Creator, but on a negative path, those who wish to dim and remove the Light upon this planet. We encourage each to Love and offer up the incense of your prayers for your people upon the negative path, feeling no fear, but asking them clearly and firmly to be gone, or if they are stubborn, working within the self to open the self to the realization that each self is all that there is, and that that negativity without is merely a part of the negativity within.
In such a way does love indeed conquer all, yet it must be true love, true service and a true feeling of unity. We do not underestimate any of the negative parts of being of service to others through vocal channeling, yet it is our humble opinion that to attempt to teach the laws, shall we say, of love is an attempt eternally blessed, eternally gratefully received by a world hungry for inspiration, and certainly one excellent way of sharing all those experiences which have combined to make you the gem-like faceted, crystallized soul that you are, for in channeling the instrument shares deeply of the self in a way not usually available within your culture. We do not urge all to take up channeling. We urge entities who seek to serve to take that desire into meditation and await an answer, a leading, a synchronistic coincidence, something that subjectively tells or calls to the seeker. If that call is to vocal channeling, we most gratefully accept you. If that call is to another service, yet still as we love all upon your planet, we love and support you in your service, whatever it may be. We may indeed acknowledge that there are many muses which do not have the psychic greeting component as part of the long term aspect of doing this particular work, however, we believe you will find that all who are of genuine service to others make great sacrifices of the personal self, and we urge each when that ordeal comes upon them to embrace change, to allow the little self to die as it will, knowing and trusting that the greater self that fills that hollow is a blessing, a wonder, a joy and in itself a service to others, for as the conscious entity opens its eyes, the love of God shines through. As the conscious entity holds out the hand, the Creator touches man to man, person to person, in intimate caring that the Creator cannot effect in and of Itself.
Q’uo went on to ask: “Do you wish to be of service by channeling? By teaching? By offering the self in the deepest way that is important to you, that is the essence of yourself?” Then Q’uo said we encourage you to the ordeal, for no matter what you give to others—and you cannot judge that—you shall be working upon that self that is Love Itself, but it may seem selfish to continue working upon self-realization until the self feels self-forgiven, yet must you not Love yourself to Love your neighbor enough to give all that you have to that perfect stranger, that face of the Creator which is another part of yourself, for to give to this entity is a blessing, and that entity shall give back to you more than you give away, so the end of the suffering is always joy, for we know there have been many who have had the psychic greeting of the loyal opposition who wish to remove the Light upon this planet, so we encourage each to Love and offer up the incense of your prayers for your people upon the negative path, feeling no fear, but asking them firmly to be gone, or if they are stubborn, working within the self to open the self to the realization that each self is all that there is, and that that negativity without is merely a part of the negativity within. Now Q’uo said in such a way does Love conquer all, yet it must be true Love, true service, and a true feeling of unity, but we do not underestimate any of the negative parts of being of service to others through vocal channeling, yet it is our opinion that to attempt to teach the laws of Love is an attempt eternally blessed and received by a world hungry for inspiration, and one way of sharing all those experiences which have combined to make you the crystallized soul that you are, for in channeling the instrument shares deeply of the self in a way not usually available within your culture, but we do not urge all to take up channeling, but we do urge entities who seek to serve to take that desire into meditation and await an answer that subjectively calls to the seeker, and if that call is to vocal channeling, we gratefully accept you, but if that call is to another service, yet still we Love and support you in your service, whatever it may be, for we acknowledge that there are many muses which do not have the psychic greeting component as part of the long term aspect of doing this work, yet we believe you will find that all who are of service to others make sacrifices of the personal self, and we urge each when that ordeal comes upon them to embrace change, to allow the little self to die as it will, trusting that the greater Self that fills that hollow is a blessing and in itself a service to others, for as the conscious entity opens its eyes, the Love of God shines through, and as the conscious entity holds out the hand, the Creator touches person to person in intimate caring that the Creator cannot effect in and of Itself. On March 12, 1989, Q’uo described the Love of God:
All that is is a reflection of the Creator’s Love for Itself, and further, Its desire to know more about Itself, to communicate with Itself for the enlargement of Its personality and to learn that which seems to be subjectively true, beautiful, and perfect, that which, unlike the physical vehicles of your density, is imperishable. In the sense of the God-self residing within the many layers of distortion and confusion that abound within third-density experience, the statement is accurate.
Yours is the manifestation, yours the experience now. Now is your time to choose. Choose first whether to serve yourself or others. Move into the period of meditation, urge your mate to move into it with you, that you may change and grow together, and in a month, a year, ten years, in the time of your heart, in the time of the Creator, the need to serve will come upon you and it will be joy as well as work, and your work will become your joy and your joy your work. We bless each, we welcome each who come to us as vocal channels. We bless all who do not but who seek to serve the infinite Creator, all of you in your own unique ways. May you be faithful and persistent in your seeking, single-hearted in your desire to know the mystery of the infinite Creator, and above all may you love each other and attempt to serve each other, for as you do so, you shall enter what this instrument would call the Kingdom of Heaven.
Yes, my friends, the Kingdom of Heaven lies within you. Offer yourself sacrificially when your time has come, and you will not feel the pain, but only the joy, a joy without end, for you dwell in eternity when you seek to serve. May you always be merry, my friends, for the seekers upon the path must laugh, must make the jokes, must have the light touch. Do not be solemn in your seeking, or flail yourself with the sackcloth and ashes, but keep yourself self-forgiven and open yourself to the utter redemptive perfection of the infinite Creator’s love. It has truly been a blessing to speak with you. We cannot express our thanks enough that you would call us to you. May we allow you to know that we shall always hear each call, not that we would speak to each, but that we would act as a carrier wave in the deepening of the meditation. You have only mentally to request that service, and those of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator shall hear each entity receiving the Comforter within its vibratory pattern.
Then Q’uo went on to say yours is the experience which is your time to choose, so choose first whether to serve yourself or others, and move into meditation, and urge your mate to move into it with you that you may change and grow together, for in a month, in the time of your heart, or in the time of the Creator, the need to serve will come upon you, for it will be joy as well as work, yet your work will become your joy and your joy your work, so we bless each, and we welcome each who comes to us as a vocal channel, for we bless all who do not channel but who seek to serve the infinite Creator in their unique ways, so may you be faithful in your seeking, single-hearted in your desire to know the mystery of the infinite Creator, and above all may you Love each other and attempt to serve each other, for as you do so, you shall enter what Carla calls the Kingdom of Heaven. Then Q’uo said the Kingdom of Heaven lies within you, so offer yourself sacrificially when your time has come, and you will not feel the pain but only a joy without end, for you dwell in eternity when you seek to serve, so may you always be merry, for the seekers upon the path must laugh and have the light touch, but do not be solemn in your seeking, and keep yourself forgiven and open yourself to the redemptive perfection of the infinite Creator’s Love, and it has been a blessing to speak with you, for we cannot express our thanks enough that you would call us to you, so know that we shall hear each call, not that we would speak to each, but that we would act as a carrier wave in the deepening of the meditation, yet you have only to mentally request that service, and those of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator shall hear each entity receiving the Comforter within its vibratory pattern. On May 11, 1986, L/Leema described the nature of our Comforter:
The source of which you speak may be called the Comforter, for within the service of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the One Infinite Creator are vibrational complexes which offer themselves according to the quality and nature of the call to those such as yourself who seek what may loosely be called an inner guidance. These sources of comfort move as they are called and speak as they are allowed in a fashion most likely to be understood by the entity who calls. In your particular case at this particular time, the form which this communication takes is the one of the expressing of a heartfelt concern and the awaiting of an answer that takes the form of writing upon the paper. Thus, it is correct to see this communication as a type of channeling, yet do not all entities channel the one Creator in one form or another, thus the form you have chosen is unique to the purpose that you have chosen.
We thank this instrument, and would at this time transfer to close the meeting through the one known as Jim. I am Q’uo.
(Jim channeling)
I am Q’uo and greet each again in Love and Light through this instrument. It is our privilege at this time to offer ourselves in the attempt to speak to any queries which may remain upon the minds of those present. We would wish each to know that that which we offer is our opinion, that which is the fruit of our seeking. Please take those words which we speak that ring of truth to you and use them as you will, leaving behind those that do not ring of that truth, leaving them behind without a second glance. Is there a query at this time to which we may speak?
Carla: Could you talk to me about devas, nature spirits?
I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my sister. This, as you know, is quite a large field of inquiry, and we would not be able to do it justice if we were to attempt in such a short gathering as this to speak extensively. But we may suggest that the entities which you describe as the nature spirits and devas, are those which inhabit your plant and animal kingdom as thickly as your plants and animals themselves, for there are many such spirits which work in conjunction with the natural world about you and serve as a kind of caretaker and communicator between the various forms of second density life and the third-density creatures such as your population of entities upon the surface of your planet at this time.
There are beings in each realm of existence which are responsible for enhancing, shall we say, the communion of the plants and the animals with each other and with the Earth itself. They are such as you would see guides and teachers of your inner planes in their function and relationship to third-density creatures. They inform the various plant and animal life-forms according to these life-forms’ desire to gain a self-conscious awareness which is the hallmark of your third-density population, for all of life moves toward the Light and Love of the one Creation, and all of life has those helpers or guides which assist in this movement, the assistance being necessary for those who are less aware of that towards which they move, and which, by their desire to move in that direction, call for the assistance of those who answer. In the case of the plant and animal life-forms, those who answer in many cases are those who you would call the nature spirits and the devas.
Is there another query?
Carla: I just wondered as to their nature. Are they second-density graduates that have chosen to turn back and help their brothers and sisters until they can all graduate into our density of humanity? Or do they come from elsewhere? Are they third-density graduates who have decided to turn back and help second density?
I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my sister. The origin of these entities is one which is somewhat difficult to describe in your terms, but we feel that the concept of…

Carla: I appreciate that information, Q’uo, because I’m working with someone for the first time who wants to work with nature spirits, and I’d like to feel more familiar with their nature, so that I may help her further. Thank you.
I am Q’uo and am again with this instrument. And we thank you, my sister. Is there another query?
J: Q’uo, I have a question I’m trying to formulate in my mind so that it makes sense to you. The question I have is regarding that comment on muses, and do I understand you correctly that in our channeling or in our quest for self-knowledge we respond to your call of the muse?
I am Q’uo and in regards to your query, my sister, we would suggest that our use of the term, muse, in relation to the seeker of truth and the means by which the seeking is carried out, refers to that quality or perhaps cluster of qualities within the seeker which speaks with a special power and glory, shall we say, for each seeker will discover within the self as the journey of seeking progresses that there are certain avenues of inquiry that hold a special interest, and others which hold that interest not so long or so intensely.
Thus, as this is discovered by each seeker, the seeker may be said to hearken to the voice of the inner muse. The poet hearkens to the use of words to express greater concepts than words themselves contain. The artist looks upon the canvas and the palette as the grounds upon which it shall express the song of the inner muse. The muse for each seeker is that voice which speaks most clearly of truth, and each seeker then, as this is discovered, may follow that voice and hearken to its speaking in order that more of the truth of its existence, purpose, and means of expression might be made known to it.
Is there another query, my sister?
J: Yes. Thank you. That really explains what I wanted to know. Further, you had made mention that some areas of interest are more prone to drawing those who wish to dim the Light, and others are not. Is my understanding of that correct?
I am Q’uo. This is basically correct, my sister, for as any seeker or group of seekers becomes more efficient, shall we say, at seeking and radiating the Light of the one Creator, this Light is seen as a power on the metaphysical or time/space levels of existence, and it is within these levels of existence that other beings of thought and power move and are attracted to the Light. The negative entities are attracted to such Light because it is a spiritual kind of power that they wish to utilize for their own purposes in service to self. Thus, their means of utilizing that Light for their own uses is seen by those radiating and seeking that Light in an efficient manner as the dimming of the Light, for it is removed, shall we say, from whence it sprung.
May we speak further, my sister?
J: Yes, I do have another question, and again, I need to have a few seconds to formulate it.
Carla: I’ll take that time just to say that isn’t what you meant more or less that like that if you were a plumber, you might be following a muse of copper or something, but you’re not going to be attracting negatives, because you’re not polarizing positive, you’re just putting in pipe. Isn’t that what you meant, Q’uo?
I am Q’uo. This is correct, my sister, for the endeavor of the seeker of truth is that which increases the polarity or the ability of that entity to welcome and enjoy the Love and the Light which is a power of the one Creator. Just as your battery within your automobile is able to function because of the potential difference between the positive and the negative charge, so is the seeker of truth able to do work in consciousness according to its ability to polarize itself in the positive, or service-to-others fashion, in an effective manner.
When this has been accomplished to a significant enough degree, that polarization is as a Light and a source of energy or power which might be utilized by that seeker for further service to others and further journeying upon the path of service to others itself. Or the Light may be used by those of negative polarity if they are successful in infringing upon this power through means not of their own design, but of openings or invitations, shall we say, on the part of the positive seeker of truth which has perhaps for a moment unwittingly or unthinkingly moved itself away from the truth it knows and entered into a disharmony which is as the opening an invitation for the negative entity to intensify to the degree that it will perhaps be able to dim the Light for a time and use that power for itself, as it has removed the Light from the service of others.
Carla asked:” I’ll take that time just to say that isn’t what you meant more or less that like that if you were a plumber, you might be following a muse of copper or something, but you’re not going to be attracting negatives, because you’re not polarizing positive, you’re just putting in pipe. Isn’t that what you meant, Q’uo?” Q’uo replied by saying this is correct, for the endeavor of the seeker of truth is that which increases the polarity of that entity to enjoy the Love and the Light which is a power of the one Creator, and as your battery within your automobile is able to function because of the potential difference between the positive and the negative charge, so is the seeker of truth able to do work in consciousness according to its ability to polarize itself in the service-to-others fashion. Then Q’uo said when this has been accomplished to a significant enough degree, that polarization is as a Light and a source of energy which might be utilized by that seeker for further journeying upon the path of service to others, or the Light may be used by those of negative polarity if they are successful in infringing upon this power through means not of their own design but of openings on the part of the positive seeker of truth which has unthinkingly moved itself away from the truth it knows and entered into a disharmony which is as the opening an invitation for the negative entity to intensify to the degree that it will be able to dim the Light for a time and use that power for itself, as it has removed the Light from the service of others. On October 3, 1982, Latwii spoke about the concept of polarization in consciousness:
Each choice, no matter what the subject, is an exercise of will, freely made. As the mind is configured by its very nature of being, and as it gathers the experiences of your illusion, it becomes biased either in the service-to-self sense or in the service-to-others sense. With this general coloration, then the individual entity begins to increase its polarization so that each choice which is made adds in some fashion to that polarization. Each choice, no matter what the subject of the choice, then might be seen as adding or subtracting from the polarization which is the general character, shall we say, of the entity. The various choices available within the illusion are simply means by which an entity adds to the polarization which it has chosen.
Is there another query, my sister?
Carla: I turn it back to J. Thank you.
J: Okay. Given that there is increased popularity, if you will, of channeling, unless this activity is carefully taught, it seems like the potential for negative energy to see the Light, to be attracted to it, and to divert it, to dim it, it seems like that probability is increased. How would you suggest that we prevent that kind of thing happening?
I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my sister. To each entity which engages in the process of offering its service to others in any fashion which is successful, there shall be the temptations offered which serve as a balancing mechanism in order that the entity which has manifested the desire to be of service to others might be offered an equal temptation to move from that service and to join the negative path in some fashion within the life pattern for some period of time. This may be seen also as an opportunity for that same entity to strengthen its desire to serve others and to move ever more faithfully upon that path as the temptations to glorify the self or to gain a power and recognition for the self are recognized and refused.
As the one known as Jesus the Christ experienced the temptations of the one known as Satan, as the one known as Jesus spent the forty days and nights in the desert, demanded that the one known as Satan get behind him, each seeker of truth will find that as progress along the path is made, that there are those opportunities to test the progress that it be true, and if there be a weakness in that seeker’s pattern of expression of service to others, those weaknesses or lesser areas of strength shall be made known to it through the difficulties, shall we say, that are a natural portion of this path, and through recognizing those areas which lack strength, the seeker of truth then may repair these areas and gratefully acknowledge their presence to any entity which has aided in pointing them out. Thus, we do not offer the information concerning negative entities and their offering of temptations to positive entities as that which is to be feared, but that which is a normal part of the evolutionary progress within your illusion, in order that the progress of each path, both positive and negative, might through their interaction strengthen the other, in order that the one Creator might through these experiences know Itself more fully and each entity within the creation, through these experiences, might know itself more fully and the one Creator more fully and more intensely.
J asked: “Given that there is increased popularity, if you will, of channeling, unless this activity is carefully taught, it seems like the potential for negative energy to see the Light, to be attracted to it, and to divert it, to dim it, it seems like that probability is increased.

Now Q’uo said as Jesus the Christ experienced the temptations of Satan, as He spent forty days and nights in the desert, demanded that Satan get behind Him, each seeker of truth will find that as progress along the path is made, that there are those opportunities to test the progress that it be true, and if there is a weakness in that seeker’s pattern of expression of service to others, those weaknesses shall be made known to it through the difficulties that are a natural portion of this path, and through recognizing those areas which lack strength, the seeker of truth then may repair these areas and acknowledge their presence to any entity which has aided in pointing them out, but we do not offer information concerning negative entities and their offering of temptations to positive entities as that which is to be feared, but that which is a normal part of the evolutionary progress within your illusion, in order that the progress of each path, both positive and negative, might through their interaction strengthen the other, in order that the one Creator might through these experiences know Itself more fully, and each entity within the creation, through these experiences, might know itself more fully and the one Creator more fully. On August 18, 1985, Latwii described the nature of evolutionary progress:
Within your illusion are provided an infinite number of means by which you may continue this process. Indeed, your entire illusion is, may we use the term, a training ground, an opportunity in each instance for you to make positive or negative choices and thereby enhance your evolutionary progress. Whether the choices are conscious or unconscious, there will be progress in direct proportion to the purity of the choices, that is to say, progress is made by choosing a polarization, be it positive or negative, and following that choice in as frequent and pure a manner as possible.
Each entity moves through the daily round of activities. Each entity has basic attitudes or points of viewing these experiences which color each experience in a repeating fashion as each experience symbolizes the perceptions and the emotional colorization that follow each perception, so that each experience is colored in an unique fashion by each seeker.
May we speak in any further fashion, my sister?
J: I have no further questions, but so I can understand this—as being an opportunity to strengthen faith, is that correct? That’s a question—I said I wasn’t going to ask a question, but I lied.
I am Q’uo, and this is quite correct, my sister. Is there another query?
J: No. Thank you very much.
I am Q’uo, and we thank you, my sister. Is there another query?
Carla: Just to follow up on that. From previous channeled information, isn’t it also true that the negative path eventually ends, and must turn to a positive path, so that in the end, there is only one path, it’s just that there is a split for a while during this illusion and perhaps the next?
I am Q’uo, and this is correct, my sister, for just as the creation itself and every portion of it shall eventually return to the complete unity of the one Creator, bringing all the experiences that have been gathered during the great octave of being as seeds for the next great octave of being, so those entities of negative polarity shall at some point within their evolutionary progress find the necessity of releasing the negative polarity and adopting that which is the positive polarity, for it is the positive polarity which, though it partakes of illusion and separation in some degree, seeks to affirm the unity of all creation and the divinity of all beings, and seeks to serve all beings as the Creator, whereas the negative polarity is based upon that which is not, that being the separation of one being from another, which lays the groundwork, shall we say, for the potential ruling of one being over another and over others.
As the negative entities continue to pursue this path of separation and control, at some point in order to continue in the process of evolution and to know more of the Creator and to exercise the power of the Creator, it becomes necessary to see other selves as the Creator and as the self. This is not difficult for the positive polarity but is difficult for the negative polarity that the negative polarity must be abandoned and the power that has been gained from it be used to reverse, shall we say, the polarity in order that continued evolution be possible.
Carla asked: “From previous channeled information, isn’t it also true that the negative path eventually ends, and must turn to a positive path, so that in the end, there is only one path, it’s just that there is a split for a while during this illusion and perhaps the next?” Q’uo replied this is correct, my sister, for just as the creation itself and every portion of it shall eventually return to the complete unity of the one Creator, bringing all the experiences that have been gathered during the great octave of being as seeds for the next great octave of being, so those entities of negative polarity shall at some point within their evolutionary progress find the necessity of releasing the negative polarity and adopting that which is the positive polarity, for it is the positive polarity which, though it partakes of illusion and separation in some degree, seeks to affirm the unity of all creation and the divinity of all beings, and seeks to serve all beings as the Creator, whereas the negative polarity is based upon that which is not, that being the separation of one being from another, which lays the groundwork, shall we say, for the potential ruling of one being over another and over others. Then Q’uo said as the negative entities continue to pursue this path of separation and control, at some point in order to continue in the process of evolution and to know more of the Creator and to exercise the power of the Creator, it becomes necessary to see other selves as the Creator and as the self, for this is not difficult for the positive polarity but is difficult for the negative polarity that the negative polarity must be abandoned and the power that has been gained from it be used to reverse, shall we say, the polarity in order that continued evolution be possible. In 36.15, Ra spoke of how the negative entities must become positive entities at the beginning of the sixth density:
Questioner: Well, then let’s say that when Himmler, for instance, reaches sixth-density negative at the beginnings of sixth-density negative, at this time would it be [the] case that an entity would realize that his higher self is sixth-density positively oriented and for that reason make the jump from negative to positive orientation?
Ra: I am Ra. This is incorrect. The sixth-density negative entity is extremely wise. It observes the spiritual entropy occurring due to the lack of ability to express the unity of sixth density. Thus, loving the Creator and realizing at some point that the Creator is not only self but other-self as self, this entity consciously chooses an instantaneous energy reorientation so that it may continue its evolution.
Is there another query, my sister?
Carla: No, thank you very much.
I am Q’uo, and again we thank you, my sister. Is there another query at this time?
Questioner: Oh, that’s a necessary function of this creation, obviously, and an exercise of polarity by those entities of the negative. They perform a function for the positive polarity by being in service to self. They also become in service to others and we of the positive polarity are witness to that and thereby experience both biases. I’m not sure what my question is. I guess what I’m trying to find out is, that’s an integral part of what’s going on here, and it sometimes is hard to feel the separation from those negative entities, knowing that they are part of the creation, part of what we all are, knowing that we all fall within that creation.
I as Q’uo, and we would comment upon your comment by suggesting that indeed all entities, whether of positive or negative or of no polarity, are a portion of the same creation and the same Creator, and that the most effective means for a positively oriented entity to deal with negative polarity is to generate within the heart the overwhelming love for such an entity, and to send that love to that entity in the meditative state if possible, and to bathe that entity in the Love and the Light of the one Creator as you perceive it.
For all beings are truly a portion of the Creator and of the self, and as the seeker of truth looks within to find that of truth within itself, any experience or entity that it comes upon in its journey of seeking will reflect some portion of inner truth to it, and as the seeker is able to draw unto itself all expressions of the Creator and to see them as the Creator, as the self, and as Love, then so they become that which they are, and no longer are that which they seem. The persona, the mask, is removed and for that seeker of truth, that seeker stands before the mirror which looks into its own soul and the heart of the Creator.
Is there a final query at this time?
J: I do have a question, and this is regarding the scenario where the negative polarity eventually makes a shift to positive polarity—I don’t know if I’m saying that correctly. It’s what Carla was talking about to you in her previous question, where the negative eventually seeks the positive. My question is, is this a scenario that we’re witnessing on the Earth at this time, where there seems to be an accumulation of negative polarity, and that negative polarity wishes to make a shift? Has that occurred on the Earth, and has there been a call for Light coming from the Earth? Or has it come from somewhere else? Is the positive polarity reaching out to the Earth? I guess I’m trying to find where the initial recognition was made, of the need for Light. Was it from those who are of the Light? Or from those who have negative polarity?
I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my sister. The call for Light has long emanated from those within this planetary influence who have chosen for themselves the service-to-others polarity. This choice and the following of this choice is likened unto a call for assistance in journeying upon this path, as any student which seeks to learn any art will learn more efficiently from a teacher. Many are the ways in which the student of positive polarity is taught. Most means are unseen and go unrecognized in the life of the seeker of truth in the positive sense: the many coincidences and pleasant surprises, shall we say, which occur in the life pattern, the dreams of a prophetic or informative nature, the meeting of an entity that changes the life, the experience that appears seemingly out of the blue, and forever marks the life pattern with a note of joy. These are the means by which the call for assistance is answered—and there are many more.
The expression of the mass consciousness upon your planetary sphere, moving in a more positive direction, is far more a function of those upon your planet who have chosen ever more faithfully and steadfastly to continue their seeking for Light and service to others rather than any shift in negative entities’ desires, for the desire of those of negative polarity exists far past the evolutionary progress which your planet has thus far achieved. The negative polarity is one which exists with great strength into the fourth density of Love, and into the fifth density, the density of wisdom. It is beyond that expression of wisdom and light into the sixth density, where love and wisdom are joined and blended into one, where the negative polarity must needs abandon the service-to-self polarity and shift its focus to that which is the service to others in order to continue the progress of seeking union with the one Creator.
J asked: “My question is, is this a scenario that we’re witnessing on the Earth at this time, where there seems to be an accumulation of negative polarity, and that negative polarity wishes to make a shift? Has that occurred on the Earth, and has there been a call for Light coming from the Earth? Or has it come from somewhere else? Is the positive polarity reaching out to the Earth? I guess I’m trying to find where the initial recognition was made, of the need for Light. Was it from those who are of the Light?

Q’uo completed their thoughts by saying the expression of the mass consciousness upon your planetary sphere, moving in a more positive direction, is a function of those upon your planet who have chosen faithfully to continue their seeking for Light and service to others rather than any shift in negative entities’ desires, for the desire of those of negative polarity exists far past the evolutionary progress which your planet has thus far achieved, for the negative polarity is one which exists with great strength into the fourth density of Love, and into the fifth density, the density of Wisdom, so it is beyond that expression of Wisdom and Light into the sixth density, where Love and Wisdom are blended into one, where the negative polarity must abandon the service-to-self polarity and shift its focus to that which is the service to others in order to continue the progress of seeking union with the one Creator. In 36.15, Ra said that negative entities must abandon the service to self-polarity and become positively oriented:
The sixth-density negative entity is extremely wise. It observes the spiritual entropy occurring due to the lack of ability to express the unity of sixth density. Thus, loving the Creator and realizing at some point that the Creator is not only self but other-self as self, this entity consciously chooses an instantaneous energy reorientation so that it may continue its evolution.
At this time, we shall again take the opportunity to thank each present which has invited our presence in joining your group and in sharing that which has been the fruit of our seeking. It is a source of great joy for us to sing with each seeker the song of seeking, the song of Love, the song of the one Creator, experiencing the great mysteries, adventures, and joys of the creation all about. We are known to you as those of Q’uo, and at this time we shall leave each, as always, in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.
This morning the quote from Practicing the Presence is: “Material living puts its faith in the form. Spiritual living makes use of that which is in the world; it enjoys the form, but its reliance is on that which is the substance of the form, or that which has created the form, the Invisible. All spiritual revelation has shown that the substance of this universe is in us. Our consciousness is the substance of the world. Therefore, in the Master’s words: “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” If anything in the world of effect is destroyed in a short period of time it can be rebuilt, re-established.
Great civilizations have been destroyed, and others have taken their place. Anything that has been built can be rebuilt because everything that exists in the outer realm exists as an activity of consciousness. That is why anything that has been built can be rebuilt. If we lost our home, our fortune, or our family, never doubt that the consciousness that built it would rebuild it.
As consciousness becomes more spiritual, one’s confidence in the Infinite Invisible increases, and one’s love, hate, or fear of the external diminishes. One sees the Infinite Invisible as the law, cause, and activity of all that is and drops concern for the form, whether it be person, thing, or condition. This is vital to the attaining of spiritual consciousness and the realization of the Invisible as the substance of all forms. The visible form is merely the natural result of the activity of the invisible law and cause.”
Later this morning I drove down to the Anchorage City Hall to let them know that a deer that was just skin and bones was lying in my driveway moving from time to time. They called one of Anchorage’s police officers who, reluctantly, realized that she would have to be euthanized. So, he shot her in the head with his pistol, and then he called for a couple of men to bring a tractor with a scoop on the front to haul her body away.
After they took the deer’s body away, I used Whip Lash to weed the driveway.
This afternoon I went on an errand run with my first stop at Kroger’s to buy some food for myself. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store to buy some Kleenexes.
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:
August 31
The House Of God
I am of the principle which animated Jesus the Christ, and I greet you in the full consciousness of Love.
The basilica of your holy temple is most lofty and grand; the chancel of your cathedral most capacious and elegant, built by man as if to invite hosts of angels to dwell therein. Yet we say to you that those lofty spaces arching far above the head of the seeker are created of an instinct concerning the inner Light of humankind, not the boarding needs of angels.
Let your thoughts and prayers be those which are uplifting and soaring above the common run of human thought and know that if you be not in those houses dedicated to the Lord God, yet still have you a lofty arch into which you may throw your heaving joy and groaning sorrow, for the great circle of human consciousness reaches to the very heart of the Creator regardless of your position in the world.
May your prayers be seen as having wings, not only in the house of God but in the greater house of God which is the world. May all places be holy to you this day.
We leave you in utter sanctity and 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 the Creator’s Love, Light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen
