I did the Morning Offering and got myself ready for the day. Today the Q’uo channeling for this session comes from June 18, 1989:
Most people feel that the spiritual journey should become easier, happier and healthier the further and longer that you travel. This doesn’t seem to be so. In many cases there seem to be more difficulties or challenges, shall we say, that are put in the path of the sincere and persistent seeker. Why is it that the path does not necessarily become easier or happier or healthier the longer that you travel?
(Carla channeling)
I am Q’uo. I greet you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We of Q’uo thank you for the desire which has come to make you one circle of seeking, one desire for truth, one unity of spirit. The question that you have asked this instrument to channel upon is one which this instrument will find interesting because this instrument has immediately previous to this read a similar message to a similar question. It is a good chance for those who have been channeling to see that there are nuances and subtleties to questions within a group that are personalized by the group so that although the end result is hopefully an inspiration which may be universal, it is carefully shaped to the questions between the lines of the question.
Within your culture, you have a condition of emotion, spirit, and body which is called burnout by this instrument. The cause of this is that you have not given over those portions of yourself which are not good fruit and, therefore, that within you which is not good fruit tries to take over the good vine, as your holy book would put it. Now, we are starting from a spiritual standpoint, because we feel that to this group meditation, inspiration, integrity, and singleness of heart are already in place. This is the spiritual atmosphere in which we urge each to come. Each of you comes already in this mode, centered by meditation and contemplation and a burning desire to serve the Creator and all of your brothers and sisters. Therefore, we shall move into the subject from the secular standpoint. When you face a challenging task, it is often exciting, and if you are given the opportunity to finish the task before beginning another, there is much satisfaction. If you begin another large task while in the midst of finishing the first, the stress and anxiety of time allotment occurs, not because there is not enough time, but because you are depending upon yourself. This is a secular world, a secular culture, an unchurched culture. The offering of unity and unconditional Love that the master known to you as Jesus offered has been so subverted and contaminated with doctrine and dogma that it seems that there is no longer the possibility of what one may call Christian worship.
Yet I say unto you, my children, this is an untruth. You may, in opening yourself to the less personal side of yourself, find the strength, find the time, and find the grace to know the will of the Creator and to do it. This cannot happen to you secularly or in a human fashion, for you are, in your waking consciousness, very, very little aware of the fact that all of you are channels. Therefore, you attempt to channel your own deepest Love and service to others. And at some point, you reach your own limits and can go no further, and this seems to you to be a great failure. We ask you first of all never to judge the self. That judgment will come, and you yourself shall be the God-self which evaluates this lifetime experience for you. As you well know, you are your own hardest critic, your own most difficult audience. To please yourself with what you do is the greatest challenge. Paradoxically, in order to maximize one’s service, there is much of oneself that needs to be burned away, as the chaff from the wheat, so that the wheat may be gathered as it springs green upon the hillside, and then golden, and then ripens unobstructed by the weeds of daily concern.
In this session Q’uo spoke about the challenges of the spiritual journey. Q’uo began by saying within your culture, you have a condition of emotion, spirit, and body which is called burnout, and the cause of this is that you have not given over those portions of yourself which are not good fruit, and that within you which is not good fruit tries to take over the good vine, so we are starting from a spiritual standpoint because we feel that to this group meditation, inspiration, and singleness of heart are already in place, and this is the spiritual atmosphere in which we urge each to come, for each of you already comes in this mode, centered by meditation and contemplation and a desire to serve the Creator and all of your brothers and sisters, so we shall move into the subject from the worldly standpoint, so when you face a challenging task, it is often exciting, and if you are given the opportunity to finish the task before beginning another, there is much satisfaction, but if you begin another large task while in the midst of finishing the first, the stress of time allotment occurs, not because there is not enough time, but because you are depending upon yourself, for this is a secular world and an unchurched culture where the offering of unity and unconditional Love that Jesus offered has been so contaminated with dogma that it seems that there is no possibility of Christian worship. Q’uo went on to say this is an untruth, for you may, in opening yourself to the less personal side of yourself, find the strength, the time, and the grace to know the will of the Creator and to do it, but this cannot happen to you in a human fashion, for you are little aware of the fact that all of you are channels since you attempt to channel your deepest Love and service to others, and at some point you can go no further, and this seems to you to be a great failure, but we ask you never to judge the self, for that judgment will come, and you shall be the God-self which evaluates this lifetime experience, for you are your hardest critic, and to please yourself with what you do is the greatest challenge, but, paradoxically, in order to maximize one’s service, there is much of oneself that needs to be burned away as the chaff from the wheat, so that the wheat may be gathered as it springs green upon the hillside, and then golden, and then ripens unobstructed by the weeds of daily concern. On February 14, 1993, Hatonn said that each of us is a channel:
Each of you is so radiant, so full of Love. You do not know what you do as you seek, and hope, and Love, but you are lightening the consciousness of your entire planetary sphere. We encourage each of you to consider yourselves worthy, to consider yourselves helpful, to acknowledge that you are channels of Light. We do not say this to puff up the pride, but to stay the heart in trust and faith. We encourage you to make valid to yourself your nature, to know and affirm again and again that you are in the Creator and the Creator in you, and that as you breathe in and breathe out your entire creation is changed.
So, our focus, perhaps, to you this evening would be to suggest that a time be set aside, and, if possible, a special place where one may go to listen within one’s heart, having opened the door behind which stands the consciousness of Christhood, the consciousness of Love. This consciousness is infinite, and one who trusts it and has faith in it is able to tap into that overflowing, beautiful and ineffable stream of the Creator’s Love. You tap into it, it flows through you, and you are not weary, or disappointed, or saddened, for you have done your best; you have done your work; you have prepared yourself; you have challenged each spirit and found that spirit to be true to your own beliefs. Then there is no burnout; there is no tiring; there is simply to do more and more because of the joy in the doing of it. We may say that this is equally true of healing. Those who attempt to heal by the power of their own inner being, by anomalistic electromagnetic fields, or by any other means will soon find themselves beleaguered and truly unwilling to act anymore as a healer, for there is great heartbreak in working as a healer. Sometimes the healing involves the end of this particular physical body. Sometimes the answer to your prayer is a simple no. Always, you are asked to sacrifice the personal self in some way.
Now let us look at the process. You have given over yourself to the ideal of service to the Creator by serving as the Creator. You have opened that inner door, that closet within and metaphorically knelt there in listening reverence. You have spent time worshipping in your own way. You have not begrudged those things which fall away from you, because they do so naturally to someone who is meditating daily. At this point we feel each of you is at this time. Now what lies ahead of you is what one of your poets would call “the road less traveled.” For we are not here to evangelize. We are not here to ask you to believe in dogma or doctrine. We are here because we are those of the consciousness of Love, and we come to you as called for this particular kind of information which we give you in Love, asking you always to remember that all that we say is opinion and not gospel. If anything that we say disturbs or disquiets you, we urge you to put that aside immediately, for you will recognize your own personal truth. It will be as if you remembered it.
Q’uo went on to say our focus for you this evening would be to suggest that a time be set aside and a special place where one may go to listen within one’s heart, having opened the door behind which stands the consciousness of Christhood, the consciousness of Love, and this consciousness is infinite, and one who has faith in it is able to tap into that beautiful and ineffable stream of the Creator’s Love, and when you tap into it, it flows through you, and you are not weary or saddened, for you have done your best, and you have challenged each spirit and found that spirit to be true to your own beliefs, for then there is no burnout, but there is more to do because of the joy in doing it, so we may say that this is true of healing, so those who attempt to heal by the power of their own inner being, or by any other means, will soon find themselves worn out and unwilling to act as a healer, for there is heartbreak in working as a healer, for sometimes healing involves the end of the physical body, and the answer to your prayer is no, yet you are asked to sacrifice the personal self in some way. Then Q’uo said let us look at the process where you have given over yourself to the ideal of service to the Creator by serving as the Creator, and you have opened that inner door within and metaphorically knelt there in listening reverence, and you have spent time worshipping in your own way, but you have not felt anger for those things which fall away from you because they do so naturally to someone who is meditating daily, for at this point we feel each of you is at this time, so what lies ahead of you is what one of your poets would call “the road less traveled,” for we are not here to ask you to believe in dogma, but we are here because we are those of the consciousness of Love, and we come to you as called for this particular kind of information which we give you in Love, asking you always to remember that all that we say is opinion and not gospel, so if anything that we say disturbs you, we urge you to put that aside, for you will recognize your own personal truth. On September 10, 2000, Q’uo spoke of the value of our own personal truth:
We would ask that each be careful to realize that we are not authority figures but really brothers and sisters who travel the same spiritual road, who are looking for answers to the same mysteries. We are happy to share our thoughts but, as always, we ask that you leave behind those thoughts that may present a stumbling block. Take only those that are useful to you and move on. And we would encourage you to practice this discrimination with all sources that you may hear or read, for, truly, authority resides in the resonance between your own nature and that which you need. When you meet your own personal truth, it has a resonance to it that is unmistakable, and we ask you to trust that and not some outer authority, no matter how persuasive or powerful.
After the first several years of an intensely lived spiritual life, some good habits and some bad habits are in place. The good habits tend to be that of dailyness, and regularity, and intensity in worship. More time is spent thinking about the one infinite Creator and Its Loving nature; less time is spent considering the treasures of this particular illusion. Yet, there are always teachers which will urge you onward, and the primary teacher which always urges you onward is yourself, for you came into this incarnation blazing with zeal to do the Creator’s will in whatever way it has been laid out for you to do. By faith alone can you silence each day, “What is there for me to do?” and find a feeling in answer. We advise that you sit in meditation until you reach the point at which you are illumined, may we say, and lost in the Creator, so that each cell of the body, and mind, and spirit, if spirits may be said to have cells, is comforted, strengthened, sustained, and blessed. Gaze about you in your mind’s eye at the beauty of the surroundings that you have just traversed. It is a fragile beauty, blooming one day and dying the next. And yet each perfect bloom in its moment of glory is ineffably beautiful to the Creator and to those with the eyes to see. We ask you to see that nature itself, the second density upon which you so depend, works hard to renew itself, to heal itself of the wounds that mankind has inflicted upon it. We would ask you in your daily meditation to pray for the peace and the integrity of your planet, for as each of you does so, the consciousness of this planet is lightened, and more and more entities are ready for graduation into the next density.
Now, you have already experienced that things become harder as one goes along throughout an incarnational experience. It may seem simplistic to you, but we ask you to think of your school system: first grade, second grade, third grade, and so on. Such is the classroom in which you are now in terms of the way we measure dimensionality. You lie at the very cusp of third and fourth density, finishing the old and beginning to feel the new vibrations. Those who are negatively inclined will be more negative. Those who are positively inclined will be polarizing more and more towards service to others, for there is no one upon this planet at this time who does not have a chance for graduation. Each of you has earned this incarnation, this precious experience, by seniority of vibration, by being able, by learning the lessons of this incarnation to make that step from thinking more about the self than others to thinking more about others than the self. If one were to be given calculus in the first grade and reading in the tenth, it would be rather chaotic, would it not?
Then Q’uo continued by saying after the first years of an intensely lived spiritual life, some good habits and some bad habits are in place, so the good habits tend to be that of dailyness, regularity, and intensity in worship when more time is spent thinking about the one infinite Creator and Its Loving nature, and less time is spent considering the treasures of this illusion, yet there are always teachers which will urge you onward, and the primary teacher which urges you onward is yourself, for you came into this incarnation blazing with zeal to do the Creator’s will in whatever way it has been laid out for you to do, for by faith alone can you silence each day and say, “What is there for me to do?” and find a feeling in the answer, and we advise that you sit in meditation until you reach the point at which you are illumined and lost in the Creator, so that each cell of the body, mind, and spirit is strengthened and blessed, so gaze about you in your mind’s eye at the beauty of the surroundings that you have just traveled, for it is a fragile beauty, blooming one day and dying the next, yet each perfect bloom in its moment of glory is beautiful to the Creator and to those with eyes to see, so we ask you to see that second density nature works hard to heal itself of the wounds that mankind has inflicted upon it, so we ask you in your daily meditation to pray for the peace and the integrity of your planet, for as each of you does so, the consciousness of this planet is lightened, and more entities are ready for graduation into the next density. Now Q’uo said you have already experienced that things become harder as one goes along throughout an incarnational experience, and it may seem simplistic to you, but we ask you to think of your school system: first grade, second grade, third grade, and so on, for such is the classroom in which you are now in terms of the way we measure dimensionality, so you lie at the very boundary of third and fourth density, finishing the old and beginning to feel the new vibrations, and those who are negatively inclined will be more negative, and those who are positively inclined will be polarizing more towards service to others, for there is no one upon this planet at this time who does not have a chance for graduation, for each of you has earned this incarnation by seniority of vibration, by being able, by learning the lessons of this incarnation to make that step from thinking more about the self than others to thinking more about others than the self. On September 1, 2019, Q’uo spoke about the nature of graduation into the fourth density:
In these last days of your third-density illusion, and the first days of the fourth-density quality of beingness, of Love and understanding, you are aware that there is a great variety of entities upon your planetary surface, each of which has incarnated by the seniority of vibration, in that there is the possibility for each to achieve this harvest into the fourth density of Love and understanding. These entities are in search of that which you have tasted, perhaps briefly, perhaps fully, and that is the opening of the heart chakra, the unconditional Love given freely to all things and all entities about one.
If you are able, in your daily round of activities, to find this open heart functioning as fully as possible with every entity that you meet, every entity with whom you exchange any kind of energy, then this Loving vibration that is set up between two of you or more is then felt by each other entity upon the planet that seeks Love and Light, for you are truly all one being. All entities upon the planet, whether positively, negatively, or neutrally polarized, would feel this Love if all were conscious seekers of truth. However, because most are not conscious seekers of truth, this Love vibration goes into the subconscious mind of the being to be used as it is possible when this entity is able to realize, in any degree, the conscious nature of its purpose for being on the Earth at this time. That is, of course, as we said, the opening of the green-ray energy center.
So, as you are a seeker of truth, consciously aware of your journey of seeking, as you are able to consciously share your Love vibration with any other entity, at any other time, this vibration becomes available to all other entities upon this planetary sphere to be used as possible, when the time is right for that entity.
Therefore, we begin slowly. The creation, first density of rock, sea, fire and air; the second generation or dimension of plants and animals, all of these are connected intimately with Love. This is why many of you experience such a deep peace when surrounded by wilderness of nature, for it sways with the rhythm of creation and has an open heart for all beings around it. It even offers to each of you the oxygen that you breathe, just as you offer it the carbon dioxide which it needs. So, you learn the beginning of things first. You learn to turn towards the Light in second density, and by the end of second density you have become an individual, whether you be an animal, a plant, or a rock formation. If it is invested with enough devotion and Love from third-density entities such as yourself, it too will become ensouled within a physical body which is able to be self-conscious.
The third density, in which you now enjoy experience, is a density in which one thing is raised high before everyone’s eye. And that is the choice: faith or doubt; light or darkness; hope or despair. Each time that you pass through the fire and find that you have learned something very difficult, you wipe your brow, metaphysically speaking, and say, “Oh, I hope that is all I need to learn right now.” My friends, your higher selves are ambitious for you. They are not content with a little of this and a little of that. They ask you for your life, and in return give you the sense of life eternal, which is the imperishable truth about each of you, for each of you is a consciousness which was before the world began. Each of you is a spark of God-self with a matching and appropriate amount of free will, set loose to make your own choices, to decide whether you shall serve others and serve the Creator, or serve yourself and so serve the Creator.
Now Q’uo said the creation of the first density of rock, sea, fire and air, and the second density of plants and animals are connected to Love, so this is why many of you experience such a peace when surrounded by the wilderness of nature, for it sways with the rhythm of creation and has an open heart for all beings around it, and it offers to each of you the oxygen that you breathe, just as you offer it the carbon dioxide which it needs, so you learn the beginning of things first, for you learn to turn towards the Light in second density, and by the end of second density you have become an individual, whether you are an animal, a plant, or a rock formation, for if it is invested with enough Love from third-density entities such as yourself, it will become ensouled within a physical body which is able to be self-conscious.

On September 29, 2002, Q’uo spoke of the nature of our higher self:
Change is uncomfortable by its very nature. It is confusing, and new patterns that are tossed into the life experience by a most humorous deity have a tremendous ability to appear to the untutored eye like pure and complete confusion and chaos. It is only after processing a good deal of new catalyst that a pattern may perhaps become clear, and it is by hindsight, then, that most of us see the true value and benefit of most of the lessons that we have been offered by our higher selves, chosen before this incarnation with great care and great Love. The only difference between before incarnation and during incarnation is that, before incarnation, the reasons for these choices were perfectly clear. Within incarnation, all of the sense of the pattern as an integrated whole has to remain beneath a veil of confusion and illusion so that the fundamental nature of the lesson of this density may become slowly and subjectively clear to each in its own way.
There are two reasons why things become more difficult as one goes along. Perhaps the most characteristic reason is that of the unlearned or incompletely learned lesson of Love. Each lesson which comes to you, each challenge, and difficulty, and demand, holds a lesson of Love for you. If you do not successfully work out this particular lesson through the aids of meditation, contemplation, inspiration, and analysis, you may not learn the lesson in front of you. You may decide instead that perhaps you have a more glorious ministry, a more exciting gift to give to the world. You are impatient. Yet there is no room for impatience in timelessness, and, my friends, all of your spiritual growth takes place in the timeless present moment. Until you have removed yourself from today, yesterday, and tomorrow, you have not contacted infinity, and it is infinity for which you yearn, for that is your birthright. Any lesson, then, which was not successfully observed, analyzed, intuited, and acted upon will in another way, but with the same dynamics of feeling, repeat itself in a more intense fashion so that you may hear more and more clearly the internal urgency of making the choice between the positive path and the negative path. One of the most terrible misconceptions of any group of seekers is elitism, the fallacy that because one is seeking, teaching, channeling, or learning, one is better, elect and special compared to those who gaze upon your television sets and consume your alcoholic beverages.
Your higher self is very patient. It does not mind how long it takes for you to learn a particular lesson. It is gazing at you from the prospect of several million years. It is helping you as its gift; your gift to yourself from what you would call the future. Learn to trust in that gift. Learn to trust your own advice. Tackle the job. Talk it through and work it out the first time. There then need be no two-by-four applied to the forehead with a more stringent second lesson or an even more stringent and difficult third lesson. Gaze at the pattern of your incarnation. What do you suppose the lessons were that you came to learn? What has your life been patterned like? All lives are a patchwork quilt when seen up close, bewildering to the eye. Yet when one backs off, one sees a pattern, a beautiful, carefully sewn pattern. All the pieces are stitched together, making the truth of Love complete. And quilting is placed beneath the coverlet that you may be soft in your zeal, gentle in your speaking of the truth, never intrusive but always ready to witness to that which is in your heart when someone asks.
Then Q’uo said there are two reasons why things become more difficult as one goes along, and the most characteristic reason is that of the incompletely learned lesson of Love, so each lesson which comes to you holds a lesson of Love for you, but if you do not work out this lesson through the aids of meditation and contemplation, you may not learn the lesson, or you may decide that you have a more exciting gift to give to the world, so you are impatient, yet there is no room for impatience in timelessness, for all of your spiritual growth takes place in the present moment, so until you have removed yourself from today, yesterday, and tomorrow, you have not contacted infinity, and it is infinity for which you yearn, for that is your birthright, but any lesson which was not successfully observed, and acted upon will in another way repeat itself in a more intense fashion, so that you may hear more clearly the internal urgency of making the choice between the positive path and the negative path, and one of the most terrible misconceptions of any group of seekers is elitism, the misperception that because one is seeking, channeling, or teaching, one is better compared to those who gaze upon your television sets and consume your alcoholic beverages. On September 6, 1987, Q’uo described the nature of timelessness:
Yet there is another kind of time. It is the time of the timeless moment, a moving vertically upward and downward upon the moment to feel the echoes of Love, meaning, and manifestation in one moment that removes from time its horizontal inexorability, its forced progress, and makes for the seeker opportunities of timelessness.
One may seek through meditation to still the inexorable march of moments and minutes and minutes into hours, hours into days, and days into years, for within meditation vertical time, or time/space, is available. Time itself may be stopped within the consciousness of the deep mind, and in that moment of timelessness, that within you which is real beholds the mystery—face-to-face. What matters if the face of mystery is dark and the mystery only deepens as one spends more and more time in communion with the absolute?
The practice of timelessness begins, after many repetitions of visits to this point of view, to unfold for the seeker an unlimited point of view, a point of view that sees the mundane limitations and necessities of the everyday life, yet dwells as a native son or daughter in that kingdom where Love abides without the mask of illusion.
Therefore, the first and greatest cause of the feeling that things are getting harder as one goes along is that one is resisting a change. For in order to be of service to other people in a truly compassionate manner, one must stop making assumptions about what, in human terms, one would think this or that person needs, this or that person desires, this or that person should hear. You may drop the seed now and again. You may suggest a thought but toss it as if it were a lighthearted shuttlecock in a badminton game. Let it flow gently and freely over the net of another’s resistance. And if it is caught and hit very well you may move on. If it is not caught very well you may move on. It is not your responsibility to change anyone’s life but your own. It is no one’s responsibility that you have difficulties or joy. Each of you is a completely independent, metaphysical, equal being, equal in stature to any being in the creation, for that of which you are made is the Creator, and that of which all things are made is of the Creator. We suggest to you, therefore, that whatever your strong point is–intuition, analysis, meditation, prayer, or contemplation–that you focus upon this in a daily and earnest manner, seeking to know how you may offer Love, asking that the opportunity be given to you to share that Love with others. If one does this, the lessons will still become harder, but they will at least have the interesting factor of being different. It is when one resists the pattern that one must repeat the lesson again and again.
There is another reason that the road becomes stonier and rockier as one moves along. What you are seeking to do is to take a bipedal animal with self-consciousness and so far integrate that bodily self into the consciousness that every cell of the being may listen to the still, small voice within the closed door of the closet of your heart. You shall not ever be satisfied with yourself. This is one of those facts of the illusion which may seem to be sad, yet there is no sadness here, for you are wanting to lose those odd little parts of yourself that do not serve in any way and wanting to fill the places that you have made with the choices of service to others. The third reason that the lessons become more difficult is simply that there is a great subtlety to the art and the craft of service to others. Very many of your people confuse this with pleasing others, and if they please others, they feel they have served. We suggest that this may not, indeed, be the case, and that each request for service be gazed at, not from the standpoint of pleasing the self or the other self, but from the standpoint of where the Love is in the situation, so that you may fasten on to that lodestar of Love and Light and act accordingly to those principles which stream therefrom.

On September 23, 2023, Q’uo described how we may use our intuition:
We would suggest taking time to sit with the land and understand its energetic signature and vision the body as freely moving energy not bound by bone or skin. See where that energy flows. See where that energy feels drawn towards. See where it feels as though the Light shines more purely, or the grass grows more bountifully. Listen to the messages of your Gaia, for she can speak to those questions. And listen to the words of your soul. Listen to what your heart has to say. Hear what the creation is telling you.
The creation will give you an impression. It may be hard to discern, or difficult to translate at times. But your intuition will be a helpful guide; and trusting that your intuition is that helpful guide, you may then feel more resonance with a certain location, a certain direction, a certain configuration.
How we admire you. We remember third density. It is the shortest of the densities, the density of choice. You are here to choose to serve the Creator by serving others or by serving the self and manipulating others. As you serve others, you may be asked to do outrageous things, to go beyond your limitations, to do what cannot be done yet which shall be done because it must. And in those situations, we strongly advise that you release your personal personality and move to an impersonal portion of your deep self, that God-self of unmitigated and straightforward compassion. To determine what is pleasing as opposed to what is serving another entity is sometimes difficult, especially on the spur of the moment. Therefore, we ask you to steep yourselves as you would immolate a tea bag in the teacup in the Love and the Light of the infinite One, that what needs be done for you to polarize, for you to choose, may be done with what this instrument would call singleness and gladness of heart.
Much of the illusion is based upon the feeling that you are not all right, that you are imperfect, that you are flawed. In a human sense this is true. Each of you has Free Will and that Free Will causes you to act variously at various times. Some of those times are successful. Some of those times are disgusting and failures. We do not ask that you succeed, nor does your higher self ask that you are literally and in a worldly sense succeeding in service to others…
[Side one of tape ends.]
(Carla channeling)
…you spirit, this polarization as the steps between the polarity you experience and the polarity you wish becomes smaller or shorter but much more intense, for you are burning away a great deal of what people may call personality. This is not to say that you should not be merry, full of laughter and joy, comforting and exhorting each other always in Love. Each of you was put here for each of you. You have the freedom to be one with everyone or to single out the self as more important than everyone.
Q’uo continued by saying we remember third density since it is the shortest of the densities, the density of choice, and you are here to choose to serve the Creator by serving others or by serving the self and manipulating others, so as you serve others, you may be asked to do what cannot be done yet which shall be done because it must be done, and in those situations we advise that you release your personality and move to an impersonal portion of your deep self, that God-self of unlimited compassion, and determine what is pleasing as opposed to what is serving another entity that is sometimes difficult, especially on the spur of the moment, for we ask you to steep yourselves, as you would soak a tea bag in the teacup, in the Love and the Light of the infinite One which is what needs to be done for you to polarize. Q’uo went on to say much of the illusion is based upon the feeling that you are imperfect, and in a human sense this is true, for each of you has Free Will and that Free Will causes you to act variously at various times, and some of those times are successful, but some of those times are failures, so we do not ask that you succeed, nor does your higher self ask that you are succeeding in service to others to increase your polarization that becomes the steps between the polarity you experience and the polarity you wish becomes more intense, for you are burning away a great deal of personality, but this is not to say that you should not be full of laughter and joy, comforting each other always in Love, for each of you was put here for each of you, so you have the freedom to be one with everyone or to single out the self as more important than everyone. On July 15, 1990, Q’uo mentioned that we are imperfect:
We do not deny that you are imperfect in a personally valid way. We only remind you that this is an illusion, and that all things, including your body, your intellect, and the artifacts which you make, a part of an illusion, a local habitation for the spirit within you.
Now, there is a trick, which we may shamelessly call that, for aiding the floundering spirit, and that is this. The Creator, if asked, will give you what you desire. Indeed, this is so much true that in a way we fear to say the truth, for that which you wish you will surely get. And many of you wish sometimes for very self-destructive things because you are unhappy with yourself. Let no illusion trouble you but remain in your heart, in your spirit, on your path, for all paths lead to the one infinite Creator. Now, as you gain experience and service to others, you may find your work with other people in service changing because you are changing. Change, of course, is painful, yet it is what you are desiring, each and every one of you. If you do not wish to feel pain, refrain from meditation; refrain from helping others; be secure and safe within your own four walls and live your life. Perhaps in the next incarnation you shall take up the quest once again. You have all the time in the world, and we mean that literally. There is no hurry; there is no judgment; there is simply a large portion of the Creator which has separated Itself by the action of Free Will that It may know Itself, that It may know Itself better and better.
This is not the first creation, nor shall it be the last. Each of you is old, older than you can imagine, wiser than you can imagine. But these attributes are very deep within the subconscious mind. When you desire to seek the true service as opposed to pleasing entities, it is well to spend time in silence, allowing all the situation, the feelings, the expectations of others and so forth, to wash through you, and then to tune yourself to the highest and best that you possibly know and can carry on a stable basis. We speak simple truths. There isn’t anything new about what we say. It is just that we have, shall we say, no ax to grind, no churches to build. All we care about is to serve one person, one soul at a time, and we are most, most happily content, for each of you, my friends, is worthwhile, imperishable, perfect, and beautiful. Now, the process that you go through in becoming a less personal servant and a more impersonal servant through which things come involves more and more sacrifice, adjustment, understanding, and laughter. If you are not laughing and feeling merry at some times as you meditate, then it is time for you to learn to laugh, for you to release the spontaneity which is your birthright.
Then Q’uo said there is a trick for aiding the suffering spirit, and that is the Creator, if asked, will give you what you desire, and this is true, for that which you wish you will get, and many of you wish for self-destructive things because you are unhappy with yourself, yet let no illusion trouble you but remain in your heart, in your spirit, on your path, for all paths lead to the one infinite Creator, so as you gain experience in service to others, you may find your work with other people in service changing because you are changing, for change is painful, yet it is what you are desiring, each and every one of you, so if you do not wish to feel pain, refrain from meditation; refrain from helping others; be secure and safe within your own four walls and live your life, and perhaps in the next incarnation you shall take up the quest once again, for you have all the time in the world, and we mean that literally, so there is no hurry; there is no judgment; there is simply a large portion of the Creator which has separated Itself by the action of Free Will that It may know Itself better. Now Q’uo said this is not the first creation, nor shall it be the last, for each of you is older than you can imagine and wiser than you can imagine, but these attributes are deep within the subconscious mind, so when you desire to seek the true service as opposed to pleasing entities, it is well to spend time in silence, allowing all the situation, the feelings, and the expectations of others, to wash through you, and then to tune yourself to the highest and best that you know and can carry on a stable basis, and we speak of simple truths, so there isn’t anything new about what we say because we have no ax to grind, no churches to build, for all we care about is to serve one person at a time, and we are content, for each of you is perfect and beautiful, yet the process that you go through in becoming a more impersonal servant through which things come involves more understanding and laughter, so if you are not laughing and feeling merry at some times as you meditate, then it is time for you to learn to laugh, for you to release the spontaneity which is your birthright. On August 22, 1993, Q’uo spoke of the value of learning to laugh:
The fifth and final of the techniques we would describe best as holy silliness or silly sanctity. Many are the third-density luminaries which have offered redemption to many souls by helping each entity spill forth the unhealthful tensions of perceptions, those perceptions which carry pain in their arms, burden and trouble each soul, and blessed is the entity which can learn to laugh. We recommend in the spirit of silly sanctity by gazing at a situation which for some reason has involved you to the extent that you are exercising the emotions within you and see this “gestalt” as a cartoon. Consider then what caption you would write under the picture of this moment. Allow the self to make a little fun of all of the emotions, all of the perceptions, all of the energies. It often will generate at first the kind of humorous caption which contains sarcasm, irony, and bitterness. But as the work continues the seeker may well find itself generating gentler and more sweetly humorous captions as the lighting up of the whole environment begins to come more and more into alignment as the one great original Thought.
If you have difficulty feeling that laughter is holy, think back to the last time in which you laughed and laughed. Was there not a full feeling of receiving the expression of Love, forgiveness, and healing within the heart of that laughter? Laughter is the fire’s communication with the Earth as mercy is the rain’s communication with the Earth. Laughter burns away pain, and then it builds golden castles and offers them to the joyous recipients in the universe.
You see, each of you has complete Free Will. You do not have to follow the path of the Creator. You may stay in one place, or you may move in a negative fashion, controlling others and manipulating them to serve yourself. The choices are yours, and as you make one successful choice the strength is then given to you to try again, and again, and again. You will many times feel that you have failed. But remember, you cannot judge yourself, not until this illusion is gone from you, and you can see the truth face to face. The very desire and zeal to be faithful and loving to one another is a Light for the nations, a lightening of the planetary consciousness and the hope of your planet at this particular time. Let us reckon with Free Will before we close through this instrument. You have an equal measure of Free Will and of God-self. This is your makeup. When you are small in stature and have not learned you are very self-involved. You are hungry, and you cry; you are wet, and you cry; you wish to be comforted: and you cry. Communication is very easy. The free will of the mother and father who nurture is not given many options, for it is in the nature of the relationship of parent and child that nurturing will in some way be done or at least attempted. But now all of you have passed that stage of living a free-will life and have found that the only true Free Will is the will to serve.
Thus, willfulness becomes willingness, and difficulty becomes a smoothly running river of Love and Light that cascades you know not where. You do not know whose lives you touch, but by faith your life itself may touch many and give them the Light that they need to make their choices. We urge each neither to proselytize nor to refrain from witnessing to that truth which is yours personally when asked. This is simple, solid, metaphysical information which has been written down many times in your holy works. But it is always new, as each day is new and as each day you are new. And so, we turn to that which breaks the back of willfulness, and that is forgiveness. In willfulness you want to do this, and you want to do that, and you will do this, and you won’t do that. And the God-self sits in a corner with Its hands folded in the closet of your heart, waiting for you to open the door. One day you open the door, but you see nothing. You go in and you sit yourself down, and you prepare yourself, and you find nothing. Perseverance brings awareness, a subtle awareness of the God-self, the Christ-consciousness within.
Q’uo continued by saying each of you has complete Free Will, and you do not have to follow the path of the Creator, so you may stay in one place, or you may move in a negative fashion, controlling others and manipulating them to serve yourself, for the choices are yours, and as you make one successful choice the strength is then given to you to try again, but you will often feel that you have failed, yet remember you cannot judge yourself until this illusion is gone from you, and you can see the truth face to face, so the desire to be faithful and loving to one another is a Light for the nations, a lightening of the planetary consciousness and the hope of your planet at this time, so let us deal with Free Will before we close through Carla, for you have an equal measure of Free Will and of God-self since this is your makeup, for when you are small in stature and have not learned you are self-involved, so you are hungry, and you cry; you are wet, and you cry; you wish to be comforted: and you cry, yet communication is easy, but the Free Will of the mother and father who nurture is not given many options, for it is in the nature of the relationship of parent and child that nurturing will in some way be done or at least attempted, but now all of you have passed that stage of living a free-will life and have found that the only true Free Will is the will to serve. Q’uo went on to say willfulness becomes willingness, and difficulty becomes a smoothly running river of Love and Light that cascades you know not where, for you do not know whose lives you touch, but by faith your life may touch many and give them the Light that they need to make their choices, so we urge each neither to proselytize nor to refrain from witnessing to that truth which is yours personally when asked, for this is metaphysical information which has been written down many times in your holy works, but it is always new, as each day is new and as each day you are new, so we turn to that which breaks the back of willfulness, and that is forgiveness, for in willfulness you want to do this, and you want to do that, and you will do this, and you won’t do that, and the God-self sits in a corner with Its hands folded in the closet of your heart, waiting for you to open the door, so one day you open the door, but you see nothing, so you go in and you sit down, and you prepare yourself, and you find nothing, but perseverance brings awareness of the God-self, the Christ-consciousness within. In 18.12, Ra spoke about the concept of forgiveness:
Questioner: You stated yesterday that forgiveness is the eradicator of karma. I am assuming that balanced forgiveness for the full eradication of karma would require forgiveness not only of other-selves, but forgiveness of self. Am I correct?
I am Ra. You are correct. We will briefly expand upon this understanding in order to clarify.
Forgiveness of other-self is forgiveness of self. An understanding of this insists upon full forgiveness upon the conscious level of self and other-self, for they are one. A full forgiveness is thus impossible without the inclusion of self.
It is inevitable that each grade, shall we say, is going to be more difficult than the last, more challenging, more interesting, for that which is before you now is based upon that which you have learned so far in this incarnational experience. Perhaps the key to being able to distinguish that which you wish to do is the letting go of the decision and the allowing of inner wisdom to inform you in your Free Will with what seems the best service to perform. Then one can turn the will with a glad and merry heart to the task at hand, wasting no time in doubt, but only tuning yourself always to the highest and best that you can be, moving again and again to the center of your being, and, no matter how harsh the failure seems to you subjectively at any one time, to refrain from the judgment of the self. Learning has always been a painful task. It is exciting, and when one looks back upon it, it is wondrous and adventurous. One feels as a voyager would, going to conquer new lands, going to embrace the world with Love and Light. Just about the time that you feel this way, the next lesson shall begin. This is what you planned for yourself for the utmost polarization for service to others.
Now Q’uo said it is inevitable that each grade is going to be more difficult than the last, for that which is before you now is based upon that which you have learned so far in this incarnational experience, and the key to being able to determine that which you wish to do is letting go of the decision and allowing inner wisdom to inform you in your Free Will with what seems the best service to perform, so then one can turn the will with a merry heart to the task at hand of tuning yourself to the highest and best that you can be, moving again to the center of your being, and, no matter how harsh the failure seems to you subjectively at any one time, to refrain from judgment of the self, for learning has always been a painful task, but it is exciting, and when one looks back upon it, it is adventurous, for one feels as a voyager would by embracing the world with Love and Light, and just about the time that you feel this way, the next lesson shall begin, so this is what you planned for yourself for the utmost polarization for service to others. On May 2, 1982, Latwii described the process of learning:
When an entity experiences the difficult times, the problems, and the disharmonies, these experiences then point out to the entity the areas where learning might be found, the learning to resolve the disharmony, the learning to solve the problem, the learning to make smooth that which is difficult, the learning to Love, to accept, to forgive, to have compassion for another entity and for the self. When an entity experiences the difficult times, then deep within that entity’s being comes the realization that the pre-incarnative choices for lessons have once again provided a means for being fulfilled. The yearning within the heart of being calls then to the conscious mind and points to the opportunity for learning so that the learning might be achieved. Your feelings of wishing to reach out are simply those feelings which describe to you your desire to learn, to Love, and to accept.
[Pause]
We paused briefly, simply to enjoy the beauty of this circle of seeking, and we thank and bless each of you for calling us this evening to your meditation to share in your vibrations at this time. It is most blessed to us to be able to share our thoughts with you, our most hoped-for event, and we thank you, for as we speak with you, and as we share in the anguish and joy that each brings this evening, we re-experience the third-density illusion, the heaviest of all illusions, and we see and are inspired by the bravery, the courage, and the determination of those who wish to do the Creator’s Will, regardless of what it costs.
We would at this time transfer this contact to the one known as Jim, thanking this instrument and each instrument in the group and all in the group, indeed, for acting as batteries for this instrument. We leave in Love and Light. We are Q’uo.
(Jim channeling)
I am Q’uo and greet each again in Love and Light through this instrument. Before we take our leave of this group for this evening, we would offer ourselves in the attempt to speak to any queries which those present may have remaining upon the mind. Is there a query at this time?
Questioner: You spoke just now of how we act as a battery for the primary channel. Could you say more about that process?
I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my brother. As each has entered this circle of seeking this evening, there is the desire that is paramount in each heart and mind to partake in the seeking for some portion of truth, some portion of Light that might be utilized to inspire the service to others within the self, to inspire the greater understanding within the self of how service is rendered and how one might evolve in the sense of mind, body, and spirit.
Thus, the desire that each brings into this circle of seeking which has been enhanced by a lifetime of service may be seen as a kind of food or energizing force that, when taken cumulatively with each other entity’s desire, provides a sustained level of energy for the one serving as instrument to draw upon. The desire, then, of the entire group might be seen to be likened unto the antenna of one of your radio devices which is able to receive a signal from a distant source in direct relationship or ratio to the amount of power or energy that is available to that antenna. Thus, each of you provides a portion of that energy, and for this service we are most grateful, my brother.
Is there another query?
Questioner: I had a question about the concept of a dark force, an evil force, and the Light force. I’ve heard it said that the evil force is an illusion, and the only evil is between your ears, that it doesn’t really exist, and we are in this illusion, learning, leaning towards the light. And my question is that, in that leaning, should one even acknowledge that there’s darkness, that it is illusion?
I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my brother. We would first begin by reminding each that the creation itself is a finely wrought and intricately designed illusion which gives each portion of the Creator a means whereby it might come to know the Creator through experience, and the Creator might come to know each portion of Itself though that same experience. Within the illusion of the creation, there is that which is of the positive or radiant and that which is of the negative or magnetic. There are many terms that are used to describe the duality of forces which together form the dynamic tension which holds the creation in place as a manifested thought that might be utilized for growth and for service. Within the illusion of this creation there is that which is not illusory, that from which the creation has been made, the one Creator, that which is beyond thought, beyond mind, beyond consciousness.
There is that truth, then, of unity from which is created that which you know as the creation. There is that which is unity and that which is not, and that is separation. From these two paths, then, come the two viable paths that might be traveled to the one Creator. That path which attempts to see the unity of all creation, to recognize it in each face that comes before your own, for this is the path of service to others, the path of radiance, of giving and of positivity. Far more travel this path than travel that path of negativity, that path which enhances the concept of seeming separation and takes it to its logical conclusion, the path of service to self that attempts to gain for the self the power of the Light and use it in subjugation of those about one in order that the power of each might redound to the one exercising control. Within your illusion of the third density these two paths have been seen as good and as evil. This is a distortion, as you may be aware of the true nature of these paths. The more difficult of the path is that of the negative polarity, that which is called within your cultures, evil, for the attempt to bend the wills of others to one’s own desire meets the difficulty of the dissipation of the power thusly gained as the ability to blend one’s seeking with another is blocked by the separation that has been enhanced and pursued.
Questioner asked:” And my question is that, in that learning, should one even acknowledge that there’s darkness, that it is illusion?” Q’uo began by saying we would begin by reminding each that the Creation is an intricately designed illusion which gives each portion of the Creator a means whereby it might come to know the Creator through experience, and the Creator might come to know each portion of Itself though that same experience, for within the illusion of the creation, there is that which is positive or radiant and that which is negative or magnetic, and there are many terms that are used to describe the duality of forces which together form the dynamic tension which holds the Creation in place as a manifested thought that might be utilized for growth and for service, but within the illusion of this Creation there is that which is not illusory, that from which the Creation has been made, the one Creator, that which is beyond thought, beyond mind, beyond consciousness. Q’uo completed their thoughts by saying there is that truth of unity from which is created the Creation, for there is that which is unity and that which is not, and that is separation, so from these two paths come the two viable paths that might be traveled to the one Creator, for there is that path which attempts to see the unity and positivity of all creation, and far more travel this path than travel that path of negativity which enhances the concept of seeming separation, so the path of service to self attempts to gain for the self the power of the Light and use it in controlling those about one in order that the power of each might redound to the one exercising control, so within your illusion of the third density these two paths have been seen as good and as evil, but this is a distortion, as you may be aware of the true nature of these paths, so the more difficult path is that of the negative polarity which is called evil, for the attempt to bend the wills of others to one’s own desire meets the difficulty of the dissipation of the power thusly gained as the ability to blend one’s seeking with another is blocked by the separation that has been enhanced and pursued. On June 14, 1992, Q’uo described the beginning of the path of negativity:
Before we leave this topic, we would focus once more upon the [inaudible] and fertile land of spiritual choice, the dark world within. Each of you gaze within. Do you feel magical? Do you feel powerful? If the answer comes too easily it is likely that there is that within you which would choose the easy way towards power, that is, the path of negativity, for each step upon the negative path seems from within to be positive: one wishes power so that one may help people; the way to help people is to give advice, give teaching; make sure that all is well by controlling various people and circumstances. All these things feel natural and good. Most beginning negative entities have no idea that they are embarking upon the path of negativity.
This path finds its conclusion within that density numbering six, where it is of necessity required that each entity wishing to proceed further in the path of unification with the Creator see all about one as the Creator. This is not difficult for those of positive polarity, for the path of positive polarity attempts as the fundamental quality of that path to see all as the Creator. It is difficult enough for those of negative polarity that the negative polarity must be abandoned at that point, and an immediate shift in polarity, shall we say, is then accomplished, for the power is the same, from the same Source, and might then be reversed, shall we say, with some difficulty, in order that the seeking then proceeds with the eyes looking upon a new world and a new creation and a new sense of self. Therefore, that which has been called evil or negative might be seen as that journey which turns upon its head all that is positive and in reverse fashion finds its pleasures in that which is dark and that which is hidden, in that which provides the opportunity for advancing the self at the expense of others. However, the end point and the final goal of each path is the one Creator, for there is no other goal, there is no other source, there is no other journey. There are, however, two means of apprehending this journey and of accomplishing its end.
Q’uo went on to say this path finds its conclusion within that density numbering six, where it is of necessity required that each entity wishing to proceed further in the path of unification with the Creator see all about one as the Creator, and this is not difficult for those of positive polarity, for the path of positive polarity attempts to see all as the Creator, but it is difficult enough for those of negative polarity that the negative polarity must be abandoned at that point, and an immediate shift in polarity is then accomplished, for the power is the same Source and might then be reversed in order that the seeking then proceeds with the eyes looking upon a new world and a new sense of self, for that which has been called negative might be seen as that journey which turns upon its head all that is positive and in reverse fashion finds its pleasures in that which is dark and that which is hidden, in that which provides the opportunity for advancing the self at the expense of others, but the end point and the final goal of each path is the one Creator, for there is no other goal; there is no other Source; there is no other journey, yet these are two means of apprehending this journey and of accomplishing its end. In 36.15, Ra spoke of how the negative entities decide to switch to positive entities in 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.
I am Q’uo. Is there a further query, my brother?
Questioner: No, thank you.
I am Q’uo, and we thank you, my brother. Is there another query at this time?
Questioner: Another question. I was curious about what you said was the energy, as I understand it, showering down on the planet at this time. You said something about the negativity increasing or the energies that people are working with, if they happen to be of the resistant path, they’re going to be increasing. I guess that is true on the positive path, also? And it will continue until the fourth density comes into completion?
I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my brother. We find that you have in essence provided the answer to your query, in that it is, indeed, our observation that as your planetary sphere moves into a new sector of time and space that the increased Love and Light of that sector is felt as it streams through the web of energy vortices of your planet by each entity upon your planet, much as would the print on the written page be enlarged by the magnifying glass. Therefore, the directions which have been chosen, either to the positive radiant or the negative and magnetic, be enhanced in their direction and vector.
Therefore, it is a situation in which there is more energy as a resource to call upon and, therefore, becomes a natural portion of the everyday environment, shall we say, so that each individual within your planetary cultures has available the stepped-up level of vibrational energy that is affecting the daily round of activities and the perceptions of the individual, so that there is an intensification of experience.
Is there a further query, my brother?
Questioner: No, thank you.
I am Q’uo, and we thank you once again, my brother. Is there a further query at this time?
Questioner: May I ask a question of a personal nature?
I am Q’uo, and we will be happy to entertain any query that is presented to us, however, we are bound by the desire that we not infringe upon an entity’s Free Will by giving responses that would affect that entity’s future or the personal interpretation of experience that is, of necessity, best left to the entity. With these caveats, we are happy to respond, my brother.
Questioner: I understand. I experience from time to time jolts of energy coming through my body which cause my head to jerk or tremble, even when I am not intending to channel healing energy, although it is quite prevalent at those times. And I am desirous of knowing what exactly that phenomenon is. What am I experiencing?
I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my brother. We find that we may speak in a general fashion, leaving the specific application to your own discrimination. For one who has offered the self in the capacity of serving as healer to those who are broken or incomplete in some fashion, according to their own perceptions, there is over a period of time and the experience of serving as a healer, a buildup of a certain kind of energy that is of an healing nature. There is within some entities the need to discharge a portion of this buildup of energy which has, in what might be seen as a consciously unbidden manner, moved into the energy pattern of the healer as a kind of natural reflex, shall we say, the path of energy having been traversed many, many times previously. Thus, the buildup has the need of discharge in order that there not be a, shall we say, back-burning of the circuits within the electrical body.
Is there a further query, my brother?
Questioner: No, thank you.
Carla: I’d like to follow up on that. Is that like… Never mind. I know the answer. Forget it. Thank you.
Q’uo: I am Q’uo, and we thank each. Is there a final query at this time?
Questioner: Tell us about our fondness for and our attraction to felines, particularly of the Siamese societies like these.
I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my brother. We look upon the second density which you have called within your culture the cat, the member of the feline family, and see an entity that has from ages past within your third-density illusion served as that which might be seen as the guard, that which watches carefully the path that is traveled by the seeker of truth. There have been many cultures within your planet’s history that have revered the cat for this particular quality of serving as one which watches, as one which guards, and gives a certain nurturing care to the seeker of truth which travels the path of the positive polarity. Thus, there is the general attraction to this particular creature by those who feel a sensitivity towards the inward seeking.
There is in many individual cases a further attraction to the cat, having been established within previous incarnations in a culture which did, indeed, revere the feline creatures. We look especially to that culture of ancient Egypt which found great use for the form and the function of the cat, serving as guard to many of the rooms of the initiation chambers and rooms used for the learning and service to others. Thus, the cat is old within the archetypical mind of all of your people and is especially placed upon a cherished point of focus for many individuals upon your planet who have had previous experience with these nurturing creatures.
At this time, we would like to thank each within this circle of seeking for inviting our presence amongst you in order that we might share some of our thoughts upon some of those topics which are of greatest interest to you on your journeys of seeking. It is a great honor for us to be asked to such a circle, and we cannot thank each enough for this privilege. Again, we would remind each that we offer that which is but our opinion, that which we have learned upon our own journeys. We do not wish any word that we have spoken to be a stumbling block for any present. Please disregard any words which have not rung of truth to you and use those which have in that way which serves you most. We would leave each at this time in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are known to you as those of Q’uo. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.
This morning the quote from Practicing the Presence is: “Rejoice, because your names are written in Heaven. Rejoice that you have found your identity as children of God. Rejoice that you have awakened into your heavenly consciousness. If the Spirit takes hold of your hand and begins to write; if the Spirit takes hold of your voice and makes it sing, follow the lead of the Spirit. Until that time, live your normal, natural life, but from morning to night, and night to morning, remember to acknowledge that it is the Invisible that is producing the harmony, the joy, the peace, and the prosperity of the visible experience. As you persist in this practice, you will make a conscious transition to a place where you will actually feel and know: “I am not living by food alone; I am not living by bread alone; There is another power acting in me; something other than I did that; I did not consciously plan that; I did not consciously do that; I did not consciously think of that; a greater power than I is responsible for this.” This is the Master’s transcendental teaching: “I have meat ye know not of. I have bread, wine, and water. I am the resurrection.” All of the power of healing, redemption, and regeneration is within me.”
Later this morning I went outside and put 6 small, plastic rods into the ground to lift the netting over the Pansies in the garden in front of the parking area in front of my home and in the driveway area so the deer can’t eat the Pansies again.
This afternoon I co-hosted the European Law of One Telegram group. I read Ra Session #92 to them, and some of the questions that I was asked are: “How did we decide what questions to ask about the archetypical mind?” “What is my favorite archetype?” “How do we use archetypes to grow spiritually?” “What do the swords mean that are crossed on the Pharoah’s chest?” “What was the problem that Don, Carla, and I experienced that was mentioned at the beginning of Session #92?” “What was Carla’s diet?” and “How do I feel about killing mosquitoes?”
After the zoom meeting was over, I went outside and finished putting 3 more small poles in the ground to hold the netting over the Pansie Garden along my driveway.
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:

Call The Light To You
I am of the Spirit of Jesus the Christ, and I greet you in the full consciousness of Love.
See yourselves seated, just as you are, taking moments precious to you. For each is busy. So, alter your consciousness that the ensuing period of time may be altered by the Light which you have called to yourself in these moments.
Picture yourself opening as a flower to the wonderful sunshine of perfect Love, being drenched by the freely given dew of strength, quietness, and peace. Store this up within your heart, that through your eyes may shine this transcendental Love which has the power of touching all those about you with a Light which they may not know, but which they yet recognize as that which lifts the spirits, heals the mind’s pain, and cheers the emotions.
Allow that Light to be stored within you more and more, that you may become an active spirit, a practicing and moving force for Love, not by direct action, necessarily, but merely by the glow within the eye, the smile upon the lips, and the words spoken from a simple and cheerful peace.
We leave you in that peace, now and always. 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
