I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today that the Hatonn and Latwii channelings for this session come from March 13, 1983:

Unknown channeling)

I am Hatonn. We greet you in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. It is a great pleasure to speak to you this evening through this instrument, and we would, at this time, speak to you in parable.

When a child, young in years, wearies of walking, he has in your culture the opportunity of asking for a tricycle. Originally, this tricycle was a very tall, wheeled machine known as a velocipede. Upon it, the adventurous young person would dare life and limb, for the front wheel was very, very tall, and the two rear wheels very small, and the element of skill, and concentration, and art was great. But now, those who desire that no risk be taken have offered to your culture not only the tricycle made of metal, off which a child could conceivably fall and bruise himself, but also the soft plastic safety of the big, wheeled tricycle that cannot fall over. Upon it the child cannot come to harm. Of course, the child cannot then risk himself or dare an adventure, except in imagination, but this satisfies those who keep watch over him and are concerned for his safety.

When a child reaches a certain age, if it is of an adventurous spirit that has the opportunity to request a bicycle. The element of risk returns. The child can dare the many tricks and performances common to those who cry out, “Look, Ma, no hands!” and swerve around corners at breakneck speed. They are not going anywhere, these older adventurers, they are risking themselves. Eventually, the child becomes man or woman and uses whatever means of transport is available, towards some end. He clambers into a car, or upon the bicycle, or motorcycle because it is necessary to move from one point to another, and perhaps the adult no longer dares the risks for the simple adventure of it. For perhaps now the adult sees purposes that unfold as the life unfolds before each one.

Now, my friends, as adults, the risks, the journeys, and the daring are interior. And yet, still there are those who could condemn you to the spiritual equivalent of the big, soft, plastic, three-wheeled environment. All your risk in your journey would be in your imagination. It has not been the choice of this creation and of the Creator to offer to each co-creator with safety. Not the three-wheeled, low-slung vehicle, spiritually, or otherwise. You are free to risk, to dream and to dare. You are also free to go nowhere, to go only to those places which have meaning within an illusion which is bounded by geography, physics, and the demands of your physical body. Those who find little joy in their experience are often those who have, of their own free will, chosen to limit the degree of risk in their seeking.

Let us turn in our thinking to a parable given by another. In this parable there were two sons. One son took his inheritance and spent it foolishly and sinfully, according to the notions of that day. The other son remained safely with the family, taking no risks and making no obvious mistakes. Yet, when the prodigal son had been reduced to the lowest job possible within that culture he fell upon his knees, and he realized that he had left a loving father and sinned against him, and he determined to ask of that father for the lowliest job in the household. He had risked, and he had lost everything, and yet when he came to his father’s house, the father instead said, “My son who was dead is now alive. Rejoice! Prepare a feast and bring all of our friends to celebrate the return of one who has been gone, one who has been lost.”

The other son, peddling carefully through life upon three low-slung wheels, adhering to his father’s orders, felt not love but jealousy, for he had missed his journey; he had taken no risks; and he did not know his identity nor appreciate his son-ship to the father, and said, “My father, you never gave me a party. I’ve always done everything you told me to.” What could the father say? He looked at one son, who was foolish but brave, who’d come back loving and penitent, and he looked at the other son who measured every bit of service, and he could only say, “All that I have is yours. It has always been so, but cannot I give a party when your brother, who was dead, has come alive again?”

Each of you look into your heart and searches out that which you measure, that which is low to the ground because you do not wish to risk a fall. Examine it carefully, my friends, because it may be an opportunity for you to enhance your journey. You seek to know the Creator, and you know that the nature of this seeking will be of a kind of return for you. Know that you have come from the Creator, and it is to that consciousness that you return. Therefore, must you not journey away in order to come back? Can you ever return if you do not set out? Whether it is a small thing, or a large thing, do that which is true to you, even if it is a mistake in actions. When it is due to fear that you will lose control over others or yourself, if often the intemperate and unwise choice, action brings about a catalyst that provides you with many mistakes, much learning, new understanding, and an ever abundant return to feast with the Creator in the kingdom where bread is of the spirit.

I would, at this time, transfer this contact. I am Hatonn.

(Unknown channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I am with this instrument. We would like once again to greet you in Love and in Light and would only say a few words in closing. We would like to express our joy in being allowed to share our message with you, the message of the Creator, the simple one of acceptance and Love. We would like at this time to transfer, if the one known as A would allow us to do so, for we feel that the contact is beneficial for her at this time. I am Hatonn.

(A channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I greet you through this instrument, once again, in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are pleased with the chance to have our thoughts spoken through this instrument, and we are glad to see her climb back upon the horse. We have enjoyed sharing our thoughts with you and hope that, in some ways, it can shed a new Light for you, for in learning in this illusion, there are many ways to see a lesson, and the brighter the light, the easier it is to see the lesson.

We shall leave you now, as we came, in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai. We are known to you as Hatonn.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of our infinite Creator. We are pleased, once again, to be called to your group. We rejoice with each of you at the honor of joining vibrations. Without further adieu, let us offer our service of attempting to answer your queries. May we begin with the first query?

A: Latwii, I am hoping you can help us with our Friday night meetings, and first of all ask how we are doing on achieving purity in our contact, for it is something we strive for as channelers.

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my sister. We feel that the discussion which preceded this meeting is quite sufficient to allow the realigning, shall we say, of the policy to admit those who have some knowledge of the nature of the meeting gained by reading those books which have been prepared for such a purpose. We feel that those who are what you may call the core of this group are well aware of the necessity for tuning carefull, and do, indeed, tune as carefully as possible when the tuning time draws near. Yet, when entities have less desire and knowledge for this type of experience enter your circle, then the circle suffers some de-tuning. We feel that exposing these entities to the material available as a prerequisite to joining the circle shows respect to the tuning of the circle. The old and new entities, and, indeed, in the new entities, are a portion of the initial building of that respect which shall aid the tuning and the purity of the messages received.

May we answer you further, my sister?

A: Um, I know this will really touch a lot on our free will decisions, but where was there a great deal of distortion in your message and in Hatonn’s messages in the past meetings, or is that too much on the free will?

I am Latwii. To give a complete answer to this query would indeed take from you the ability to discern that which is discernible to you. You have within your inner awareness and your intellectual capacities as well the ability to, shall we say, gain a feel for what transpires and for the nature of the messages as they are delivered. Look then to your own resources for the tools to make this discernment more readily available, my sister, and may we answer you further?

A: No, thank you.

I am Latwii. We are grateful to you, my sister, and thank you for your care and desire. May we attempt another query at this time?

Carla: I’m a little puzzled. When we have an intensive meditation and a new channel asks about the quality of channeling, the answer is usually fairly specific. What is the difference between that question and the one that I raised?

I am Latwii. In the case of the new instrument, there is genuine doubt as to the purity of the contact. In the case just queried upon, there is not such a pure doubt and the service to be most helpful is to reinforce that which is known, not by verification in a yes or no manner, but by coaxing that which is known forward within the instrument’s mind.

May we answer you further, my sister?

Carla: So, if A truly was in the dark and really had no clue, then she would have been able to find out about the channeled source, is that correct?

I am Latwii. This is largely correct, my sister.

May we answer you further?

Carla: No, no, I am just reminded of something Ra said once about how interesting it is that people ask so many questions that they already know the answers to. I guess we want confirmation. Thank you.

I am Latwii. We are very appreciative, my sister, to you, as well. May we attempt another query at this time.

Carla: I guess you want me to save the questions about things that have happened to me, and the channel, and Don for Ra, right?

I am Latwii. Our desires, my sister, are to serve in whatever manner is possible. We therefore ask if there is a way in which we might be of service?

Carla: Yes, there is, if it isn’t an infringement on free will, because I really don’t think I know the answer, and I would like to—all three of us—would like to have a Ra session soon. Two of the three of us are under the weather but feel that we can do it. Is that estimate of the situation accurate, or would we be too low on energy and, therefore, be taking too much of a risk?

I am Latwii, and shall attempt response to this query, though the instrument has some doubts as to our ability to clearly transmit that which is available. We shall begin, with the instrument’s kind permission as he attempts to stand aside. We feel that your group has the requisite energy and harmony necessary for the conducting of a session with those of Ra. Though your group does have the deficit in certain areas at this time, well known to each of you, there is the ability to function in the metaphysical sense, which is the overriding factor in such sessions.

May we answer you further, my sister?

Carla: Since Jim is the power part of the triangle, is there some danger that the kidney problem might go on longer because he is expending physical energy and visualizing white Light?

I am Latwii, and I am aware of your query, my sister. We find that this entity shall be able to function as necessary without further damage to those organs of the renal structure, for it is not a portion of the healing process that will be called upon in the activity of which you have spoken.

May we answer you further, my sister?

Carla: Just one thing, it’s the only other thing that I could think of that wouldn’t infringe for sure. Is there anything that can be done to aid either Jim or me in building ourselves back up, each in our own way, and becoming healed of the things that have been wrong with us so that we might be able to be more regular in our sessions than just having maintenance sessions and having trouble again?

I am Latwii, and to answer this query in the most helpful manner, we feel that we shall move from that which you may call the mechanical to that which we hope is the heart of your query, for there are those who are far more able than we to speak upon the mechanics, and though there are also those who are far more able than we to speak upon the heart, we shall attempt this speaking. As you prepare yourselves to travel through your illusion, whatever the destination or purpose at the moment, to be most prepared to partake fully and to be of the greatest service at each moment one may look to the heart of Love and to see that Love reflected in each moment is to know that one is prepared for all things.

As you look about you, and as you move with those about you, and as you dance with your creation, find the harmony of the moment. Find the means by which the Love within may be shared with those about you. The dance of your illusion is most important, for it is an illusion that seems to lack Love. The magic of the moment is to find that Love, for it is in each moment. It is within your being. To dance with those in Love and harmony is to be prepared to know the one Creator and to serve each of Its portions to your greatest ability.

Carla asked: “Is there anything that can be done to aid either Jim or me in building ourselves back up, each in our own way, and becoming healed of the things that have been wrong with us so that we might be able to be more regular in our sessions than just having maintenance sessions and having trouble again?” Latwii replied by saying to answer this query in the most helpful manner, we shall move from the mechanical to that which is the heart of your query, for there are those who are more able than we to speak upon the mechanics, and though there are also those who are far more able than we to speak upon the heart, we shall attempt this speaking, and as you prepare yourselves to travel through your illusion, whatever the destination or purpose at the moment, to be most prepared to partake fully, and to be of the greatest service at each moment, one may look to the heart of Love and see that Love reflected in each moment is to know that one is prepared for all things. Latwii continued by saying as you look about you, and as you move with those about you, and as you dance with your creation, find the harmony of the moment, and find the means by which the Love within may be shared with those about you, for the dance of your illusion is most important because it is an illusion that seems to lack Love, so the magic of the moment is to find that Love, for it is in each moment, and it is within your being, so to dance with those in Love and harmony is to be prepared to know the one Creator and to serve each of Its portions to your greatest ability. On December 7, 2019, Q’uo spoke the harmony of the moment:

As each seeker moves through its daily experience, noting the relative lack or presence of positive harmony and desires in its being, there may arise this concern that is the heart of the query: Does the attitude determine the value of the service? My sister, we would say that the attitude provides a kind of level ground upon which one may walk so that the steps may be more or less easily traversed when the attitude is what you call positive, feeling the joy and harmony of the moment, and sharing that joy and harmony with those whom you seek to serve. In this regard, the attitude is that which facilitates the easier exchange of energy between you and those of your co-workers, and those whom you all seek to service.

May we answer you further, my sister?

Carla: No.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister, and may we attempt another query at this time?

Carla: If no one else has one, I’d like to ask one more unrelated. I can’t remember whether I saw it in the news, or read it in the paper, or whether it was just—but there was a woman with muscular dystrophy or multiple sclerosis who felt that she had the right to die because the nature of her life was not such that she could be of service to anyone else, basically. There has been a movie made on the same subject. A man being a sculptor who could no longer sculpt. He wanted to have the right to be taken off the machines that were keeping him alive. What are the metaphysical implications of determining, while still conscious, to end an incarnation, no matter how benign the circumstances sound? One does have the tendency to wonder whether or not it is a suicidal thought, and if it is a suicidal thought, whether that might not simply be prolonging the lesson rather than the other way around. What are your thoughts on that, Hobson?

I am Latwii, and am most happy to respond, dear. We shall begin by removing the concept of suicide, as your people call it, for we find it overlaid with emotional content that distorts. We shall, indeed, re-correct this instrument, we shall de-…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and we shall continue with the concept of desire or perhaps dedication. When an entity finds itself in an incarnation lacking in that desire and dedication to learn those lessons which it has chosen to learn, and lacking in such an extent that it in some way contributes to the ending of its incarnation in what might be called a premature manner, then it shall find as it reviews the incarnation so ended that there was, indeed, the lack of desire, and it shall then find within itself the desire to complete that which was left incomplete. Therefore, such an entity may find that the lack of desire in one incarnation shall be balanced by a rededication to those lessons not learned, and that situation not well used shall enter an incarnation in which the situation, and the lessons, and the desire dance together to find that there is the learning of Love.

And may we answer you further, my sister?

Carla: Yes, just to finish up. The only variation on that theme, of course, is when there is a flat brain wave, but the body is still being kept alive by allopathic means, you know, a heart machine, a lung machine, and all that stuff. At that point, pulling the plug seems to me to have no karmic, no anything—force—it’s just simply the acceptance of what has already happened. Would you like to confirm that, or could you comment on it?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my sister. Indeed, in most cases, this may seem to be so, yet it cannot be stated unequivocally, that such is always so, for, as you know, there are no mistakes, and a random catalyst is less and less apparent to those entities now incarnated upon your planet. This is to say that the advent of those machines which you call the life-support systems may have use to some entities. It may be that some final, last portion of a lesson can be learned while utilizing such machinery.

Carla: No kidding!

Latwii: It may also be the case that there are no further lessons, so the machinery is unnecessary. We cannot state which case applies without knowing these specifics. Each entity can look to the inner knowing for that information.

May we answer you further, my sister?

Carla: Well, can one really? I mean, there’s a poor dumb relative with a “living will” in her hand saying this is the “living will” stating her husband’s desire is to be unplugged, if he ever gets in this situation. How does that person know how to perform the best service?

I am Latwii. We repeat that there are no mistakes. You may do as you will in each case. There are always ramifications and results from action. That is the nature of action. When you review your incarnation, you will undoubtedly find those situations which you had hoped might produce results other than were produced. This will give you the means by which you may refine the learning which you intended. It is not necessary, shall we say, that you measure up to a certain grade in each situation. Do not be overconcerned with the details of each situation that you encounter. Look instead to the overall basics that are developed and balanced, especially those concerning Love, forgiveness, acceptance, understanding and compassion. If you begin with such considerations, you begin at the heart of your lesson, and it is the heart of that lesson that you seek in each tiny experience.

May we answer you further, my sister?

Carla: I would hardly consider the decision that would bring about the death of someone—clinical death—a tiny experience. I think I get the drift. Thank you very much.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister, and, indeed, we do not mean to call that which you call death a tiny experience, but we are speaking to the general tendency to look upon each experience as large.

May we attempt another query at this time?

[Pages 14 and 15 are missing from the original transcript]

…tion that we are of the Creator, we, therefore, are of yourselves.

May we answer you further?

Carla: No, thank you.

Latwii: We thank you, my sister. Is there another question?

Carla: Yes, just one other question, Latwii. These people who are living in these illusions different from ours from our point of view, who worked with them many years, and they are irresponsible and someone has to care for them. They have to be literally taken care of as though they were helpless, and oftentimes they are very disruptive to everybody around them, in fact. And my question is, do these entities, when they are crazy, to use our word—it’s as good as any that I know—do they serve as a catalyst for those around them, or do they give them an opportunity to serve the Creator?

I am Latwii. My sister, we would, if allowed, extend your question and respond by observing that those around oneself always have the potential of being both catalyst and the opportunity to be of service. There is no self who is not capable of being of service at any opportunity to another self.

May we answer you further?

Carla: No, thank you.

Latwii: We thank you, my sister. Is there another question?

[Pause]

I am Latwii. As there are no further questions, we will take our leave with the observation that this has been a joyfully good time. In the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator, my friends, we are known to you as Latwii.

(Carla channeling)

I am Nona. We greet you in the Love and the Light of our infinite Creator. We come at the request of one who is not present and one who is present. We are most grateful to offer our healing of vibrations through this instrument, in Love and Light.

(Singing)

[Transcript ends.]

This morning the quote from The Art of Meditation is:” Except the Lord build the house, unless God is understood to be the source of supply, there is no permanent supply. This house is our individual consciousness. When this consciousness is unenlightened human consciousness, it is barren; it lacks the spiritual substance from which supply flows.

Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes. All this is true of you -–“ye,” the unenlightened consciousness. As human beings, we all have sown much and reaped little; we have earned wages, and often have had nothing left because all this came from an unenriched barren consciousness. Out of the barrenness of human consciousness, regardless of what we build, our efforts are not permanent or lasting. We eat, and hunger again; we drink, and thirst again; we engage in all the activities of human life, but nothing endures. It is vain to rise up early, to sit up late trying to demonstrate supply.

Then we are told: ‘Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Consider your ways.’ With this admonition comes the instruction to go up to the mountain; to go up into a high state of consciousness; to go into the high places, and from there bring wood and build the house. Every time we meditate, or fill ourselves with the meat ye know not of, or the water of life, or the wine of life, or the bread of life, meaning spiritual substance and food, we are building the house of spiritual consciousness, a consciousness of truth. When that house has been built, the Lord says, ‘I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified.’”

This afternoon it was again my pleasure to co-host the European Law of One Study Group. Today I read Session #60 to the group, and I made comments in various places to clarify the questions that Don asked or the responses that Ra gave. Then various members of the group asked me questions such as: “How anger causes cancer and what to do about it?” “How could we use the third spiral of the pyramid to travel?” “How do I meditate?” “What is the nature of the inner planes?” “How can we share our Love in the darkness of the world around us?” Then Daniel asked me to lead the group in a guided meditation. Next week I am looking forward to studying Ra Session #61.

After the European Law of One Study Group session was over, I looked out of the kitchen window, and I saw the fountain on my fishpond shooting as high as ever! I was totally surprised because it had only been about six inches high, and then it got covered in ice by the last two weeks of low temperatures in the single and double digits. So, I took the garden hose out of the basement and hooked it up to the outside faucet and filled the pond that had gone down about six inches. While the fishpond was filling with water, I took my daily speedwalk. When I got back the pond was full of water. Then I added a cup of AquaSafe to neutralize the chlorine in the fresh water. Then I wound the garden hose up and left it outside since the low temperatures are high enough to keep the faucet from freezing.

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

February 2

Every Flower Rejoices

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

Be it known to you that every flower that nods in the sunlight rejoices in Love; that every green leaf that shakes upon the bough lifts its voice in songs of praise to Love.

Know, too, that every cell of your body and every cell of your mind is full of the Love of the Father, full of the Christ, full of rejoicing.

It may seem to you that portions of your body or your mind have been cut off from the Love of God in Jesus Christ. Believe and know that this is in no case the final truth and press on in faith, holding the vision of Love in every cell, of rejoicing in every iota of the body and the mind. By this may the power of the Spirit of Love be called to you, be drawn upon you, and begin to heal you.

We leave you in the peace of Love, now and ever. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of Love and open our hearts minds, and souls to send Love, Light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite Love, Light, and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our Love, Light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. The Hatonn and Latwii channelings for this session come from March 6, 1983:

(S channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are pleased to be with you this evening, and we are honored that you have called upon us to join you, and we are, as always, overjoyed at the oneness we find when this group is joined together as we all share in our seeking. We are often concerned about your people, but we are also filled with happiness when we know that there are those upon your planet who are endeavoring to seek the Creator, each in their own way. We all seek the same Light, though we follow different paths. Each of us goes their own way, though we all go toward the same place. We are individuals, yet we are one. We are alone, yet we are together. Our togetherness is often not seen as completeness togetherness. There is an illusion that we are separate, but it is only an illusion. For we are all a part of the creation; we are all the creation.

We constantly seek the same Light, and we seek it whether we see ourselves as one or as individuals, for there are many upon your planet who are unaware of their oneness with the Creator. Still, they seek. It may often seem that we are in the dark. We often feel alone. We often feel frightened. But if we will look for the Light, it will always be available to us. If when we are in what might be called the depths of our despair, we may only seek out a point of Light, that Light will be shown to us. It will lead us out of the darkness, and we will know the way. But first we must seek that Light. If we choose to remain in the darkness, we will remain in the darkness. It is up to each individual to strive toward the Light. It is our nature to strive toward the Light as the flowers upon your planet strive for the sun. It is something within their being that makes them grow toward the sun.

And so, it is with you, my friends. It is within you that same striving. You will seek the Light whether you are aware of your seeking or not, for it is inborn within your very soul. As you seek the Light, you find that it becomes brighter, easier to find, and easier to follow. You are never alone, my friends. You always have the light. Seek this Light when you are in those depths, my friends, for seeking the Light is finding the Light.

We will leave this instrument now and would transfer to another. I am Hatonn.

(Jim channeling)

I am Hatonn, and greet you once again, my friends, in Love and Light. We have been attempting to contact the ones known as M and C but find some weariness within these instruments, and therefore shall continue through this instrument. We find this evening a great concern among this group for that concept which your people call health. You have spoken this evening of many ways of viewing the healing process which is necessitated when that condition called health deteriorates in some fashion. We would hope to offer you yet another perspective. No more sure, shall we say, than any other, yet our own.

You and your people exist within an illusion within which you find a portion of yourself seemingly divided from another portion, that is to say, your conscious mind does not seem to have a ready access to that which you may call your unconscious mind. This, shall we say, darkness of knowing or veiling which separates one portion of yourself from another, in effect makes it possible for your conscious choice to be free of the great overview which the unconscious mind can provide, for the unconscious mind is your direct link to all of the creation, and were its resources fully available to you, you would have no doubt as to the nature of your being, that is, the one Creator. The advantage of not being able to tap this resource easily is that the choices you make with your conscious mind as you travel through your illusion are choices which then carry much more weight in your total beingness. The portion of the Creator that resides within you then is given greater experience with much more intensity, variety, and purity than would be possible were you to rest in the blissful state of knowing your unity with all which the unconscious mind can provide.

Therefore, as you move through your illusion, you will find your ability to accomplish the movement, the experience, the growth, the learning of the lessons of Love enhanced by the choices you make. Yet, my friends, you are well aware that not all choices are as efficacious as others. There are many factors which may lead to what you call ill health, some of which are choices which eventually are discovered to be less efficient than others. It may be that the path which one has set out before an incarnation includes the necessity of making such choices, for it is well known among your people that the, shall we say, trial and error method teaches well.

In this session Hatonn wanted to speak upon the concept of health. They began by saying your people exist within an illusion within which you find a portion of yourself seemingly divided from another portion, so that your conscious mind does not seem to have ready access to your unconscious mind, and this veiling which separates one portion of yourself from another makes it possible for your conscious choice to be free of the overview which the unconscious mind can provide, for the unconscious mind is your link to all of the creation, and were its resources fully available to you, you would have no doubt as to the nature of your being the one Creator, for the advantage of not being able to tap this resource easily is that the choices you make with your conscious mind are choices which carry more weight in your beingness, so the portion of the Creator that resides within you is given greater experience with more intensity, variety, and purity than would be possible were you to rest in the blissful state of knowing your unity with all which the unconscious mind can provide. Then Hatonn said as you move through your illusion, you will find your ability to learn the lessons of Love enhanced by the choices you make, yet you are aware that not all choices are as efficient as others, and there are many factors which may lead to ill health, some of which are choices which are discovered to be less efficient than others, so it may be that the path which one has set out before an incarnation includes the necessity of making such choices, for it is known that the trial and error method teaches well. On May 21, 2000, Q’uo spoke about health and ill health:

As to the nature of those pains and questions that you have concerning the health and well-being of your physical vehicle, we would suggest that you are, indeed, very healthy, for the physical vehicle that you utilize to move about within this illusion is one which has natural health to it. However, one can alter this health by offering to the deeper mind the questions that are in the form of doubts. One can erode one’s own health by such doubts and fears, not usually in a significant sense, but in the sense that the physical vehicle will respond to the manipulations of the mind. For, indeed, the physical vehicle is a creature of the mind. It is well, therefore, not just to affirm one’s health but to claim it, to live it, to exercise it, to go forth filled with it. We would recommend that you rest in the knowledge that your physical vehicle supports you as well as you support it.

If you will look upon each choice, not with the concept of right or wrong, good or bad, but as an experience which teaches, you will then see that even a choice which leads to what you call ill health due to a certain disharmony or imbalance in the choice can teach as much if not more in many instances than choices which do not include the need for the ill health. It is often felt by the people of your planet, especially your culture, that the, shall we say, good life includes perfect health and income which supports one’s self and family in comfort, friends which gather to share in merriments, and so forth, the general being a smooth flow of experience, one after another. Yet, my friends, does anyone live such a life? If not, why? Could it be that there is more to what you call your life than the smooth and easy flow of events? Could it be that the strength of your will to seek the light is increased when you encounter difficulties?

It could be that each of you, before your present incarnation, programmed these difficulties so that when certain lessons had been learned, there would be the challenge to continue learning, for it often appears among your people in their current condition that when there is no reason to learn, learning occurs not. When there is the need to learn in order to resolve the difficulty, then learning occurs of necessity. You may see the condition of your health in some instances as a type of barometer which can indicate many things according to the individual. For one it may be a reflection of the lessons that are being well learned or attempted, for another it may be reflection of the harmony which is being experienced and radiated from that being. For another it may be that the state of health reflects certain lessons which need the recognition in order to be attempted.

Then Hatonn went on to say if you look upon each choice, not with the concept of right or wrong as an experience which teaches, you will see that even a choice which leads to ill health due to a disharmony in the choice can teach as much if not more in many instances than choices which do not include the need for ill health, for it is felt by the people of your culture, that the good life includes perfect health and income which supports one’s self and family in comfort and friends which gather to share in merriments, and your being is a smooth flow of experience, one after another yet: “Does anyone live such a life? If not, why? Could it be that there is more to what you call your life than the smooth and easy flow of events? Could it be that the strength of your will to seek the Light is increased when you encounter difficulties?” Now Hatonn said it could be that each of you, before your present incarnation, programmed these difficulties so that when certain lessons were learned, there would be a challenge to continue learning, for it often appears among your people that when there is no reason to learn, learning occurs not, but when there is the need to learn in order to resolve the difficulty, then learning occurs of necessity, and you may see the condition of your health in some instances as a type of barometer which can indicate many things according to the individual, for one it may be a reflection of the lessons that are being well learned, and for another it may be a reflection of the harmony which is being experienced and radiated from that being, but for another it may be that the state of health reflects certain lessons which need recognition in order to be attempted. On January 7, 2008, Q’uo spoke of the requirements for our general state of health:

You want all of your energies in balance and in a state of health. Therefore, you want your red ray to be strong, with its issues of sexuality and survival. Similarly, you wish for your orange ray to be strong, with its issues of relationship of self to self and the relationships that you have with others, one on one. And you want your yellow ray to be strong, with its issues of group relationships such as the birth family, the marriage family, and the work family.

In all cases, we may suggest that healing occurs in what you may call the metaphysical realms or inner nature portions of the entity, and then are manifested in the physical vehicle as the last portion of the health recovery and are triggered solely by the inner choice made by each entity. Many are the ways which your people utilize to achieve healing. Whether the way includes the visitation to your orthodox medical physicians, or the visitation to what are called psychic healers, or the change in diet, exercise, sleep and rest patterns, or whether the trigger is the simple choice of an entity to do or not do a certain act, the healing occurs first within the entity at the metaphysical level of what might be called the higher self. It is at this point and this level that the Creator within moves to restore balance when the lesson that necessitated imbalance has been learned, for you do not have random or accidental experience upon your plane, though much appears so. Each experience carries the potential for learning, and each experience has been designed and programmed for that purpose by each of you before and during your incarnation. The veil of which we spoke keeps this knowledge from you that the process might be completed successfully, for if you were aware of how, shall we say, the game was played, it would be but child’s play to complete it.

The challenge you have before you is to seek within and through that veil, that you might glean greater and greater portions of the great plan for your evolution which you have created by your choice before this incarnation. Therefore, it is always our suggestion when asked concerning how to accomplish healing that the first step be to seek in meditation the nature of the lesson which stands before you when you experience what you call disease, whether it be of mind, body, or spirit. To seek within is to look in the only direction which you shall find a clear reflection, for you have chosen the experience which you face, and it is that inner being which has chosen it. To look elsewhere is to invite a less than clear perception of what the nature of your experience is. As you continue your inward looking, you will find that the puzzling pieces of your experiences begin to fit, one upon the other, and a continuous stream of images and inspirations then become available to you so that you might continue the process of learning that which the disease symbolizes, and which the disease has brought before your attention in a manner which you cannot ignore. Meditation is one means by which you can begin to choose a more balanced path of seeking and, therefore, continue to make the choices which will heal the imbalances which other choices have set in motion.

Hatonn continued by saying we suggest that healing occurs in the metaphysical nature of the entity, and then it is manifested in the physical vehicle as the last portion of the health recovery, so healing is triggered by the inner choice made by each entity, and many are the ways which your people utilize to achieve healing, but whether the way includes visiting medical physicians, or visiting psychic healers, or the change in diet, exercise, and sleep patterns, or whether the trigger is the choice of an entity to do or not do a certain act, the healing occurs first within the entity at the metaphysical level of the higher self, for it is at this this level that the Creator within moves to restore balance when the lesson that necessitated imbalance has been learned, for you do not have random experience upon your plane, though much appears so, and each experience carries the potential for learning, and each experience has been designed and programmed for that purpose by each of you before and during your incarnation, so the veil of which we spoke keeps this knowledge from you that the process might be completed successfully, for if you were aware of how the game was played, it would be but child’s play to complete it. Hatonn completed their thoughts by saying the challenge you have before you is to seek within and through that veil that you might find greater portions of the plan for your evolution which you have created by your choice before this incarnation, and it is always our suggestion that the first step be to seek in meditation the nature of the lesson which stands before you when you experience disease, whether it be of mind, body, or spirit, so to seek within is to look in the only direction which you shall find a clear reflection, for you have chosen the experience which you face, and it is your inner being which has chosen it, but to look elsewhere is to invite a less than clear perception of what the nature of your experience is, yet as you continue your inward looking, you will find that the puzzling pieces of your experiences begin to fit, and a continuous stream of images and inspirations become available to you, so that you might continue the process of learning that which the disease symbolizes and which the disease has brought before your attention in a manner which you cannot ignore, so meditation is one means by which you can begin to choose a balanced path of seeking and to continue to make the choices which will heal the imbalances which other choices have set in motion. On November 25, 2023, Q’uo described the nature of our inner being:

The energy that knocks you down may or may not have come from your own spiritual choices as to the kind of ways you respond to growth, the growth of your own spiritual awareness in certain areas of your life experience. These areas are places within your own being which have the potential for being helpful if you can realize their origin and how they knock you down. This is a process of your inner being, which has great potential for helping you to become more spiritually aware if you are able to see where the energies have been moved by unconscious choice in many cases, that are reflective of how you deal with difficulties. The choices are those which have the ability to halt or cause the movement of awareness to become confused. Fused in a manner which blends maybe this, maybe that when there is the clear perception of the cause. Then the knocking down is removed as a possibility.

We at this time would make one final attempt at closing our contact through another instrument if there is the desire upon that instrument’s part to aid in this manner. We shall transfer this contact at this time. I am Hatonn.

(K channeling)

I am Hatonn. Again we greet you in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. We would close this session with you by saying a few further words about health, since the one known as Carla is absent from the group tonight, and since it is evident that all of you are concerned. My friends, on your planet and in your culture, there is a belief system about health that tends toward the illness or disease that you find all about you. You have the notion that it is widespread among your people, that you are supposed to be sick. My friends, the body is very capable of healing itself. The cells of your body are in tune with the infinite source of creativity of the universe, but you feed into your subconscious mind concepts about illness that fill you with fear and anxiety, both of which are enemies of good health. You look to others for healing rather than looking within. There are those on your planet who have been healed during the dreaming state. This is quite possible, but if your belief system says otherwise, you will not seek dreaming, the healing from the dreaming state.

We have given you food for thought. Each of you will have to resolve the question of health and illness for yourself, even as you have to resolve each decision that comes before you. However, we would leave you with the cheerful thought that your body is completely capable of healing itself. Therefore, we suggest that you continue to seek and find the answer individually. And, as always, we leave you rejoicing in the Light and the Love of the infinite Creator. I am Hatonn.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are most honored once again to be asked to join your group. It is always our pleasure to blend our vibrations with yours. This group has been, for a great portion of what you call time now, our special adventure, shall we say, for we do not speak to many upon your planet, and these opportunities to speak in this manner are precious to us. Our service this evening, as always, shall be an attempt to answer your queries. We hope you realize that our humble responses are indeed nowhere near infallible, yet we offer them with some insight and with great joy. Therefore, may we ask if we might attempt the first query at this time?

M: I have a question. I don’t know whether you can help me with it, but it seems like throughout my entire life, every so often I get a divine spark of truth that satisfies my brain for awhile. And for about a month or so I’ve been looking for another spark, and I can’t find one. Would you mind giving me a divine spark of truth that will keep my brain going? It feels as if it’s starved. I’ve heard some good ideas, but I haven’t gotten a really new one in about a month, and this leaves me rather uncomfortable. I need something, some divine spark of truth that will feed my brain for about a month.

I am Latwii. We are unsure as to our ability to provide such a spark to one who is used to the flame of truth in many forms. It is most difficult to say what is a profound revelation to one entity as compared to another, yet we are aware of certain general truths which seem to hold sway, no matter to whom they are applied. We may humbly suggest that for the truth which you seek you might look at that feeling of being uncomfortable, for is not such a feeling as full of truth as the feeling of comfort which comes from inspiration?

May we answer you further, my sister?

M: Well, I’m not exactly sure, but I’ll think about it. Thank you.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister. We hope that we have not made the spark too opaque. May we attempt another query?

R: Yes, Latwii, I wonder if you could tell me if the condition in one of my ears is related to my seeking in any way, or if that would be an infringement?

I am Latwii. We do not mean to be facetious, my brother, but there is no condition which you can experience which is not related to your seeking. The condition which you have spoken of is indeed most appropriately associated with your seeking, and may be evaluated by continuing your practice of meditation upon the nature of the condition, for each such condition manifests in a way which symbolizes the lessons which are being attempted, and those especially—we pause that this instrument might be comfortable. To continue. Each such symbol then, points to the lesson which most needs attention at the moment, as you would call it. If you will look at the portion of the body which has been affected and note its function, you will begin to see the connections which are being pointed at, shall we say, and from this point you may proceed further along the path which lies before you.

May we answer you further, my brother?

R: Yes. What purpose are the tones in the ears, and what are the differences between right and left?

I am Latwii. When an entity has for some time been considering a certain concept, a certain path, and has been attempting to determine how to proceed with the inner seeking, and how to reflect it in the outer expression, there will often be a communication from what you might call inner planes, guides, the higher self, and various other angelic presences that will attempt to signal the conscious mind of the entity, and provide a clue as to the path which would be most efficacious. These signals take many, many forms. Most often noticed among your people is the coincidence of events where within the experience of the entity in the material world there will be manifested a, as you would call it, coincidence, that points the way. Others may term this a synchronistic event, and this is but one means of such communication. The means of which you have spoken is not as usually utilized, but is…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii. To continue. For the entity to experience the tone in the right ear, is for the entity to recognize the appropriateness of the thought or action which preceded the tone. The left ear tone, then, signals the inappropriateness of the thought or action which preceded the tone. There is a third tone which an entity may experience, occurring at the crown chakra just above the top of the head, as you call it, which signifies neither appropriateness or inappropriateness, but signifies the balanced nature of thought or action which preceded the tone.

May we answer you further, my brother?

R: No, thank you.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my brother. Is there another query at this time?

K: Well, yes, since we’re on health tonight, and I don’t want to tire the instrument too much here, but in one of my meditations about three or four months ago, I was having so much pain in my lower back, and particularly when I sat down, that I requested healing in my meditation, and I seemed to get the response, “Well, heal yourself.” And it seemed to be pretty dogmatic and emphatic; sort of the way I would say things sometimes. Now I have been healed. Now my question is, did I heal myself? I guess I’m wanting some reassurance, but did I heal myself, or can you give me any notion of what happened?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my sister. In this instance, as in all such healings, the healing indeed was of self by self. But as you know, there are various portions of yourself and the portion of yourself which has partaken in this particular healing is a portion which is much closer in unity to the one Creator than is the portion which is manifested as your conscious self. When healing is desired with enough strength, and has been accompanied by the appropriate amount of learning, then the conscious self may petition the higher self, as you call it, that that source of providing catalyst, shall we say, may also provide the balance which will be reflected in healing for the conscious self. As you meditate and as you meditated, your petition was noted. Advice was given. Advice was taken, and healing occurred. May we hasten to add that in all cases of such healing it is the Creator which moves within and which restores the balance. Yet are you not the Creator?

May we answer you further, my sister?

K: No, I believe not. It did seem like it took me a long time to learn the lesson because I sure had pain a long time, but thanks a lot, Latwii.

I am Latwii. We thank you, sister. Is there another query?

S: Yes. Latwii, can you give me any information about my friend, [sounds like] Morzack, if that’s the correct pronunciation?

I am Latwii. We may speak only in general terms in this matter, for as each seeker travels the inner journey, there will be those friends which are drawn to the seeker according to the nature of the seeking which is manifested. As you experience your incarnation, you will find the lessons that you have laid before yourself learned in such and such a manner, and you will find that there are friends which appear from time to time to aid in this process. No entity is alone. Each entity is surrounded by many presences. Which presence will manifest at which time is determined by the needs of the seeker and the nature of the seeking. To be at peace with the communications which the seeker will experience from time to time, we would suggest that each seeker determine a certain ritual that will allow the challenge of any entity making communication so that the entity making communication may be felt at all levels of being to be of a positive nature, to be of a service-to-others nature, and all such entities greatly appreciate this challenge, for it is an indication that the one whom they wish to serve is more aware of the nature of such service and more able to benefit by it.

Therefore, as you continue your journey of seeking, know that you are not alone, that there shall be those who will make themselves known to you in one way or another according to your needs.

May we answer you further, my sister?

S: No, thank you, Latwii.

I am Latwii. We thank you. Is there another query at this time?

M: Well, I would like a little information, Latwii. I’m not particularly sensitive to any form of pain, and I don’t believe in sickness. Now is that just… Does that affect the fact, the reason I don’t have any pain, that I don’t believe in sickness? And if I have a slight pain, I tell my mind not to feel it, and it doesn’t feel it. Is that done by me, or is it done by, say, a previous incarnation that I decided to be this way? Why is it, everybody else seems to have so many pains and… I know I’m not particularly sensitive to pain because when the dentist drills my teeth he never puts any Novocain or anything on it because I don’t feel it. Is that something I’ve done or something that was planned?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my sister. All choices are those you have made, many before this incarnation, and many, indeed, as a result of previous incarnations, for each incarnation may be looked upon as a class or course in which certain lessons are desired according to their efficiency, shall we say, in learning. The next course or incarnation is determined to be of such and such a nature so that new lessons may be learned or previous lessons may be refined. It may be that, as in your case, there is a certain need for the, as your people call it, maintenance of health upon a rather constant level so that lessons may be focused upon which do not require the use of the ill health, as your people have called it. Many upon your planet feel that people are quite similar in their experience, and each may be likened to another in its experience of the various stimuli which your illusion offers, for example, pain. Yet, if careful study were made of each entity, there would be a great diversity discovered. Your case may sound quite unusual to many, yet it is but another example of the great diversity of the one Creator throughout all creation.

May we answer further, my sister?

M: Well, maybe. In other words, did I choose before I was born not to feel pain and have bad health, or did I… is my attitude here in this life causing me not to have bad health? Was it before this life or during this life? Is it my attitude now? I don’t believe in sickness. Is that a factor or not?

I am Latwii. Your attitude, may we say, was quite carefully chosen before your incarnation.

May we answer you further?

M: No, thank you. I believe that does answer it.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister. Is there another query at this time?

S: Latwii, I have a quick one. I assume that my challenging ritual is effective. Can you confirm this for me?

I am Latwii. We may suggest that your ritual has been effective, for it is born of your heart and the desire to seek the truth.

May we answer you further, my sister?

S: No, thank you very much.

I am Latwii and we thank you, my sister. Is there another question at this time?

[Pause]

I am Latwii. We see that we have passed from the silver-tongued speech to the golden silence. We thank each in this group for allowing us to speak this evening. We remind you that our words are but guideposts, hopefully pointing the way to an inner seeking which will provide you with the true treasures of your being. Take what words we speak as lightly as the wind that blows in your spring season, and move gently along the path in peace. We leave this group at this time, rejoicing with you in Light and Love, in peace and in power. We thank you, my friends. We are known to you as Latwii. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning the quote from The Art of Meditation is: “On our Christmas trees there are lights of all colors—red, blue, purple. Electricity transmits its light through these multicolored bulbs of all shapes and sizes. The bulbs, in and of themselves, are not the source of the light; they are merely the instruments through which the light shines. So it is that when we see human, animal, or plant life, we mistake their visible form for the life which animates and is the substance of that form. God is the life and the substance of all form, the creative principle of all that is. God is the activity governing the functions and organs of the body. It is God that animates all men and women. God is the wisdom, the integrity, and the purity of the Soul of men and women. God is the strength of men and women.

Let us not be deceived by appearances, not even by good appearances. Let us not call one person strong and another one beautiful. We must look behind the appearance to the invisible Life which makes all this beauty of form possible. Then we can enjoy every aspect of creation, every appearance, whether it is the human body, an animal species, or a plant. These are forms of life, but if we do not understand that Life which vitalize these forms, for they may appear as either good or bad, young or old, sick or well, rich or poor.

A limited human sense of life relies on shifting values and invests the forms of life with power for good or for evil; a spiritual sense of life, however, enjoys the form while recognizing the Infinite Invisible as the essence of that form. If we take our eyes away from the form long enough to look behind it into the Invisible and see God as the principle of all life, we shall understand the difference between material living and spiritual living. The truth entertained in our consciousness is the law of life, of harmony, and of resurrection unto our body.”

This afternoon I took the filter covers off of my new Kenmore de-humidifier and then put them back on both sides of the de-humidifier. Then I took the de-humidifier down to the basement and plugged it into the power outlet and tapped the “On” button. The button went from orange to white, and the de-humidifier began running.

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

February 10

Smoke And Ashes

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

A spark goes forth from the dying embers of the fire of useless thoughts. It flies to the barren ground of the unhearing ear and dies. And all the energy that has been expended is that which has produced only smoke and ashes. This is the material of which much of your experience consists of.

Consider well that for which you shall feel passion; that for which you shall generate Love; that which shall create in you the flame, the embers, and the spark.

Consider also the ground upon which you choose to build the fire of your caring, your service, and your Love. For truly do you wish to serve. And truly shall each ember shoot forth those sparks which may, in turn, breed fires of Love.

Choose you the ready ground. Choose, in your thoughts, thoughts that temper your spirit, strengthen your Love, and bring you into the consciousness of Jesus the Christ.

May the fire of your spirit burn clear and bright, and may each dying thought produce bountiful fruit.

We leave you in peace, both now and evermore. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of Love and open our hearts minds, and souls to send Love, Light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite Love, Light, and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our Love, Light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. The Hatonn and Latwii channelings for this session come from February 27, 1983:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. It gives us great joy to share our thoughts with you this evening, and as we touch each of you in thought we send all our blessings that your journey may be filled with Light and Love. We especially greet those new to this gathering and one who has not been with us for some great time as you reckon.

And so, you all go out seeking the adventure of learning, and so have men and women gone out seeking that great adventure since consciousness began. The track is irresistible, and yet there are many ways by which the seeker may slow down. Very often the wide paths, the most traveled and the most popular are those which accommodate those entities who desire to move at a slower pace. We are aware that each in this group desires to quicken the pace and, so we would talk to you this evening about courage. It has perhaps been suggested to you that the end of your seeking will be knowledge and understanding, that you will find the answers that you seek. Indeed, we have suggested that you will find the answers that you seek. We have never intentionally suggested that you will find a key to the understanding of those answers, only that you are heard, and that answers are forthcoming. The path which is narrow is a path the end of which is the realization that you do not know anything. The reason this path is narrow is that not knowing is uncomfortable, and continuing on for any length of time upon a path which promises further unknowing as the fruit of your current unknowing is simply not a very delectable path, and therefore it is not much traveled by your people.

But we ask you to look around you, my friends. Having considered what you may understand, we ask that you evaluate its importance in your spiritual quest. Are you seeking to know who you are? Very well, a noble and great quest is this, as it contains all of creation in its depth and breadth, for you and creation are one. Seek, my friends, to know who you are. But if you seek with integrity, you will find that your answers do not leave you smug. You do not ever know. It takes a great deal of courage to go far along on the path that you discover the feelings, and the character, and the fruits of who you are and still be able to face the ultimate mystery of your identity. Those without courage will settle upon an answer, and that answer will keep them from changing, or at least changing as quickly.

In this session Hatonn spoke of the nature of courage. They began by saying you all are seeking the adventure of learning, and so have men and women gone out seeking that adventure since consciousness began, for the track is irresistible, yet there are many ways by which the seeker may slow down, and often the most traveled paths are those which accommodate those entities who desire to move at a slower pace, for we are aware that each in this group desires to quicken the pace, and so we would talk to you this evening about courage, and it has been suggested to you that the end of your seeking will be knowledge, that you will find the answers that you seek, for we have suggested that you will find the answers that you seek, but we have never suggested that you will find a key to the understanding of those answers, only that you are heard, and that answers are forthcoming, so the path which is narrow is a path the end of which is the realization that you do not know anything, and the reason this path is narrow is that not knowing is uncomfortable, so continuing upon a path which promises further unknowing as the fruit of your current unknowing is not a desirable path, and it is not much traveled by your people. Hatonn went on to say we ask you to look around you, and having considered what you may understand, we ask that you evaluate its importance in your spiritual quest, so if you are seeking to know who you are, this is a noble quest as it contains all of creation in its depth and breadth, for you and creation are one, so seek to know who you are, but if you seek with integrity, you will find that your answers do not leave you smug because you do not ever know, for it takes great courage to go far along on the path that you discover the feelings and the character of who you are and still be able to face the ultimate mystery of your identity, and those without courage will settle upon an answer, and that answer will keep them from changing as quickly. On September 23, 2000, Q’uo spoke about the nature of courage:

Remember, each one of you, that you do not walk alone, that there are those who rejoice at every step taken with you, for this is a difficult illusion in which you find yourselves moving at this time. Your friends would seem to be confusion, doubt, fear, defeat, and being humbled daily by the difficulties of existing in such a heavy, chemical illusion. And yet, you do move with such encumbrances, and yet the courage that each shows in continuing upon the journey, moving as the Fool from the cliff with no sure footing or idea of the next step, is that kind of action which inspires entities such as ourselves greatly as we observe the valor, the courage, the faith, the will, and the determination of so many seekers such as yourselves upon this planet at this time. The seeking is most intense. The service is ever more lovingly offered. The light shines ever more brilliantly through all of the difficulties and distress that are so much more apparent upon the surface of things in this illusion. We add our Love and service to your own, as do many others, so that which you accomplish can be seen to be as the fulcrum that allows a greater leverage in the overall evolution of this planetary entity.

Let us observe the master known as Jesus. This teacher talked about himself only in the context of his relationship to the Father, to the Creator, to the One who is all things. He was, as you are, aware of that relationship. He was aware that He was both created and Creator. He did not know anything beyond that, and each step that He took was taken after meditation, and under the guidance of that which He did not previously know, which many have called the Holy Spirit and others have called the higher self. How much courage can you bring to your quest? Love is ever and always nearly manifested to those who quest, and that Love is blinding in its power, and you know it is there, and you seek more of it. Do you have the courage to accept your conscious unknown, for surely you have spent enough hours in despair because your actions were but a shadow of what you know, as you might say. You think, “My will is strong and my heart shall be light, and I shall meet all obstacles with Love, that Love that I know, that Love that I feel, that Love that I seek.” And yet, these things you do not always do. You do not know. It is the seeking, continuous, balanced between seriousness and joy, fresh each day, that accelerates your rate, speed, and leads you upon an ever narrower path.

And this, my friends, is good, for it is the narrow path, the path of courage, the path of fearlessness in the face of not knowing that will grant you more and more a sense of being able to reach into the resources of your higher self, of your deeper self, of your inner self, of Christ consciousness, and manifest the true joy of faith and will. It has often been noted that justice is blind among your people. We would further note, so is Love, so is seeking. Do not let the dimness of your mirror images ever discourage you for long. Do not let your own lack of manifestation ever discourage you for long. Do not let any error, as you may consider it, discourage you for long, for this creation is the Creator’s. You live in a creation of Love and in an illusion of mystery. See far enough to find the Love and have the courage to release yourself from the responsibility of certain knowledge. Those who are certain about philosophy and those things of the spiritual evolution have simply placed themselves on a slower path where they will be borne upon the shoulders of their comrades, given more encouragement, offered frequent rests, and sustained by many comforts. Courage, my friends. You who have it shall inherit a great mystery of being as can no one who seeks certain knowledge. You seek the wind. It is invisible, it is infinite, and it will come and go when it will. Do you suggest that you shall know it, that you shall measure it, and put it between the pages of a book? Or do you instead seek to be it? Lift your wings, my friends, and soar in the Love and the Light that is yours for the seeking, yours for the taking, and yours to manifest in glory.

Hatonn went on to say let us observe the master Jesus, so this teacher talked about Himself only in the context of His relationship to the Father, to the Creator who is all things, and He was, as you are, aware of that relationship where He was both created and Creator, but He did not know anything beyond that, and each step that He took was taken after meditation and under the guidance of that which He did not previously know, which many have called the Holy Spirit, and others have called the higher self since Love is always manifested to those who quest, and that Love is blinding in its power, and you know it is there, and you seek more of it, for you have the courage to accept your conscious as unknown because you have spent hours in despair because your actions were but a shadow of what you know, so you think, “My will is strong, and my heart shall be light, and I shall meet all obstacles with Love, that Love that I know, that Love that I feel, that Love that I seek,”  these things you do not always do, for you do not know, but the seeking which is continuous is balanced between seriousness and joy, and it accelerates your speed, and it leads you upon an ever-narrower path. Then Hatonn said this is good, for it is the path of fearlessness in the face of not knowing that will grant you more of a sense of being able to reach into the resources of your deeper self of Christ consciousness to manifest the joy of faith and will, and it has been noted that justice is blind among your people, and we say so is Love and seeking, but do not let any error discourage you for long, for this creation is the Creator’s, for you live in a creation of Love and in an illusion of mystery, so see far enough to find the Love and have the courage to release yourself from the responsibility of certain knowledge because those who are certain about philosophy and those things of the spiritual evolution have placed themselves on a slower path where they will be borne upon the shoulders of their friends, given more encouragement, offered frequent rests, and sustained by many comforts, for you who have courage shall inherit a great mystery of being as can no one who seeks certain knowledge, and you seek the infinite wind, and it will come and go when it will, so lift your wings and soar in the Love and the Light that is yours for the seeking and yours to manifest in glory. On February 6, 2000, Q’uo spoke about the nature of our deeper self:

It is not that the heart is a place of explanation, for it is not. What is in the heart is your deeper self. What is in the heart ultimately is the one infinite Creator, and this is a Creator who has learned one thing for sure so far in Its infinite creations, and that is that It Loves each and every creation that It has made with a Love that is so deep and so pure that the tiniest iota of skin, or hair, or thought, or idea that occurs is important to the one infinite Creator. You cannot bore the one infinite Creator. It is endlessly fascinated by and interested in each of Its souls.

We leave this instrument bathed in the sweetness of meeting with comrades and again thank you that we may share our thoughts with you, humble and poor though they may be. We ask that you grasp firmly the concept that we are fallible beings such as yourselves. Therefore, take what you will of what we say. Use that which seems good to you and discard the rest without a moment’s hesitation. We are here to inspire and to encourage, not to confuse. We thank you for the great service you provide us by allowing us to be of some small aid. I am Hatonn, and I leave you in the Love and in the Light of our infinite Creator. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

(L channeling)

I am Latwii, and I greet you, my brothers and sisters, in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. We are speaking slowly while we are establishing a good contact with this instrument. We ask your patience that this might be accomplished, for the instrument is somewhat fatigued and out of practice. At this time we would present ourselves in hopes of being allowed to perform whatever service we are capable of in answering the questions you may elect to offer. At this time are there any questions?

Carla: I’ve been wondering about the reason so many schoolchildren have been given such harsh diseases to cope with these last two or three years. The latest epidemic was very uncomfortable, and much worse than the usual measles and strep. Stomach cramps and what not. Is there some other reason other than chance catalyst that this was presented to this particular generation of kids?

I am Latwii. I am aware of your question. My sister, we would recall for you the awareness that you possess concerning the qualifications that entitle the more recent incarnations upon your planet to be allowed to incarnate. As you remember, the schedule, if you will, is based upon the likelihood of accomplishing a sufficient polarization to continue the journey, so to speak. In the case of a number of the most recent incarnates, the quantity of catalyst experienced within a relatively short period of that which you term time is necessary to allow the newly incarnate the opportunity to successfully receive the equivalent of a cram course in human experience.

May we answer you further?

Carla: You’re talking about seniority by vibration?

I am Latwii. Your assumption is correct. We would emphasize, however, that the term seniority is somewhat misleading, for there are those who are of a lesser developed state whose particular circumstances or required lessons are of a nature that would lend themselves well to being accomplished in the particular milieu experienced on your planet at this time. The odds, if you will, for these entities are greatly enhanced by the particular characteristic of that which they are likely to experience, and in so doing have the opportunity to complete the stage of work which they have undertaken.

May we answer you further?

Carla: Then you’re inferring that the supply of those who may be expected to make harvest is less than the supply of physical vehicles that are being born, so that those who have no excellent chance of making harvest, or some, are still able to incarnate. Is that right?

Latwii: To a degree that is correct, my sister. It might be examined under the light of the willingness of those non-incarnate to be of service in patiently awaiting to allow one who is less likely to be harvested an opportunity to excel, and thus achieve harvest due to the particular circumstances available within the experience range presented by the physical vehicle. For example, one whose particular requirements for growth would include an opportunity to experience great physical and emotional stress might have to wait for several eons to find such ideal circumstances as those which are currently present on your planet. And, we might add, the potential future holds a high degree of likelihood that the circumstances for intense catalyst in these areas are greatly enhanced if an entity who seeks harvest, and is approximately, yet not actually at the harvest potential, perceives an other self who would be tremendously benefited by the opportunity to incarnate at this particular moment in time, the service-oriented near-harvestable entity might be moved to delay his or her incarnation so as to extend the service of such a delay to allow the incarnation and potential harvest for the entity of lesser accomplishment who also seeks incarnation under the particular circumstances available at this time.

May we answer you further?

Carla: No, thank you. I’m impressed by the courtesy of the ones who are willing to wait another seventy-five thousand years so that somebody else can have a turn. That’s a whole new light on the word courtesy.

I am Latwii. My sister, we would not be hesitant to point out that this also is taken into consideration.

Is there another question?

[Pause]

I am Latwii. As there are no further questions vocalized, we shall assume that those present have exhausted their supply of queries, and we shall ourselves be of service at this point in releasing our use of this instrument to allow those present to continue in their usual fashions. In the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator, my brothers and sisters, we are known to you as Latwii.

Carla: In case any of the other channels are wondering whether to speak, I do feel a presence here, and I am not getting any signals, so it must be for somebody else.

C: I felt this feeling before the meditation tonight, but I’m totally unsure what it is. That’s why I’m staying quiet.

Carla: Okey-Dokey.

C: It’s that I feel strange.

Carla: Spirit, if you are new to this group, we challenge you in the name of Christ. If you come in the name of Christ, the Christ consciousness, and the one white Light you are welcome. If not, we bid you be gone now and forever. Hum. He must not have been a nice one. He went away. We are now open for prayers.

C: A quick one.

Carla: Yeah, it was a fast one, a weak little fella. You all right, C?

C: Yeah, I’m all right.

[Tape ends.]

This morning I drove Stanley down to Big O Tires in Middletown because Stanley’s left front tire was no longer holding much air. It took about ten minutes for them to solve the problem for no charge! Then I went to Feeder’s Supply and bought some bird seed and cat food. My third stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some food for myself. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I bought some Kleenexes, a birthday card, and some Hagan Dass vanilla ice cream.

This afternoon the quote from The Art of Meditation is: “The body is the temple of the living God, a temple not made with hands, not mortally conceived, but eternal in the heavens; that is eternal in time and space; eternal in life; eternal in spirit, in soul, and in substance. God made all that was made, and all that God made was made of God, partaking of the very nature of God which is eternality, immortality, and perfection. God made the body in Its own image and likeness.

God is life. An activity of God, operating in a seed, brings forth a child with all the potentialities of adulthood embodied in one tiny little form—not merely a piece of matter, but an intelligence and a soul accompanying that body. The Spirit of God does this, but in its vanity humanity has arrogated to themselves the role of a creator. Men and women have assumed that because they were fathers and mothers, they were originators, instead of knowing that they are the instruments through which God acts to express Itself—not to perpetuate you or me, or my children or your children. God operates as Love in our consciousness to produce Its own image and likeness. This expression of God we have called your child and mine, forgetting that this is God’s child, and not a personal creation or a personal possession. We pray to God to maintain and sustain our children; but they are not our children; they are God’s children. It is not necessary to pray that God maintain and sustain Its own children. It is God’s prerogative to create, maintain, and sustain Its own image and likeness.

God is the Creator of all that is. God, then, is the Creator of humanity’s bodies. “Know ye not that your body is the temple of the living God?” We Call this body your body and my body, but it is not ours. It is God’s body, formed by God for God’s pleasure, made in God’s image and likeness, governed by God’s law, and created to show forth God’s glory.”

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

February 9

The Work Of The Spirit

We greet you in the name of Jesus the Christ and in the full consciousness of that love which creates and sustains all created things.

We are a principle and a thought and yet there are no two situations in which our breath moves in an identical manner to any other situation. For at one time it is the spirit’s work to awaken and at another time to soothe; at one time to brighten and at another time to point in shadow for the more subtle understanding.

Nay, it is not the activity which can be described which characterizes the energy of the consciousness of love but rather the life within that unique wind which blows over the situation which characterizes the nature of the spirit. For the spirit utters life when It speaks. Look, then, to the life-giving spirit. For all things are dead save in Christ.

We leave you in the living and powerful peace which is yours to enjoy, 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 our Love, Light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.

 I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn and Latwii channelings come from January 30, 1983:

(C channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I am now with this instrument. We greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We wish to speak a few words on what for you is, indeed, of great difficulty in your illusion, that being what you know as choice. You, as all entities, are free-willed in each thing. Each of your life situations is to you many different options of which you weigh and choose. Each entity’s choice becomes that entity’s responsibility. When your choice is made and the moment accepted, neither hate nor love the choice, but accept it for the moment. With each choice you are… with each choice take a step. Use your…

We are experiencing some difficulty in maintaining a good contact with this instrument. We would, as he requests, now transfer this contact to another. I am Hatonn.

(Jim channeling)

I am Hatonn, and greet you once again through this instrument in Love and Light. To continue. As you make your choices in this illusion, you will find that each choice brings yet more possibilities for choice. You operate within this illusion in a manner which might be called trial and error, though we would deemphasize the error aspect, for we do not feel that any choice can be error. Yet from your experience you may discern those choices which are less efficacious than other choices, but this discernment is only possible as you continue to make choice after choice. You will find that the experiences which you gather through the making of choices will offer you hints, shall we say, that will aid you in further decision making, so that the entity which is able to analyze through the use of the mind those experiences which it has encountered is then able to take the gleanings of this analysis with it in meditation, and is able to allow new thought forms and possibilities in thinking to occur within the being.

Then this entity is able to continue a process of evolution which you may simply call growth, as you continue to expand and grow in your ability to utilize your mind, your body, and your spirit complexes in an ever-expanding understanding, if we may use this term, of the nature of your illusion. Then you will find a pathway which lies before you that becomes more and more distinct. For as you choose, you become more polarized, shall we say, by the choices you have made, and this polarization then becomes likened unto a momentum within your very being. The momentum of your choices to be of service, however you have chosen, then shows to the attentive entity the path which is most efficacious within each situation that it shall face in what you shall call your future.

In this session Hatonn spoke of how we make choices to polarize our consciousness positively in service to others. They began by saying as you make your choices in this illusion, you will find that each choice brings more possibilities for choice, and you operate within this illusion by trial and error, but we would deemphasize the error aspect, for we do not feel that any choice can be error, yet from your experience you may discern those choices which are less efficient than other choices, but this discernment is only possible as you continue to make choices, so you will find that the experiences which you gather by making choices will offer you hints that will aid you in further decision making, so that the entity which is able to analyze those experiences which it has encountered is able to take the gleanings of this analysis with it in meditation and is able to allow new thought forms and possibilities in thinking to occur within the being. Hatonn continued by saying this entity is able to continue a process of evolution which you may call growth as you continue to grow in your ability to utilize your mind, your body, and your spirit complexes in an expanding understanding of the nature of your illusion, and you will find a pathway which lies before you that becomes more distinct, for as you choose, you become more polarized by the choices you have made, and this polarization then becomes a momentum within your being, for the momentum of your choices to be of service shows to the attentive entity the path which is most helpful within each situation that it shall face in the future. On October 21, 1990, Q’uo spoke of the value of the choices we have made:

When you are stymied, and your free will wishes to circumnavigate a situation, allow the choices you have made to polarize toward service to others to make you strong in your will. Allow yourself to remember your previous choices, and how, although they seemed hard, they were one hundred and one thousandfold rewarding. For it is not until there has been some time spent in sheer persistence of effort to listen to the will of the Creator that there comes a hunger for that silence that speaks louder than any words.

In a lifetime of choices you forged in yourself a life of faith, a gift for your Creator, the gift of a poem, of a tapestry, rich, lovely, filled with high ideals and high hopes, against all odds, filled not with happiness, for only those things that turn to dust are happy things, but filled instead with joy, joy within sorrow, sorrow within joy, until you are blissful, and gentle, and willfulness had become willingness to Love and serve the Creator and the Creator in every person.

Do not be afraid to choose, my friends. Do not fear that which is called the failure by many of your people, for there is in truth no such thing as failure. There may be instances wherein your choices shall not yield the results which you had hoped they would yield when you made the choices. Yet this is only a function of your imperfect understanding of what it is that will truly benefit your evolution in mind, body, and spirit. Rest within the assurance that you cannot fail as you choose, and choose, and continue to choose the path which you travel. You do not understand the complete overview, shall we say, of your journey, for this is not the density of understanding. You operate within a forgetting that increases the value, shall we say, of the choices that you make and the path that you travel in your total beingness. Therefore, forget you the fear of failure. Choose and continue to choose fearlessly then, knowing that each choice has the opportunity to teach. And if you will listen with your inner being, discern with your mind, and join the two in meditation, you shall lead yourself through your own choices along that path which is the most efficacious for the growth that you so earnestly seek at this time.

Hatonn said do not be afraid to choose, and do not fear failure, for there is no such thing as failure, so there may be instances where your choices shall not yield the results which you had hoped they would yield, yet this is only a function of your imperfect understanding of what it is that will benefit your evolution in mind, body, and spirit, so rest within the assurance that you cannot fail as you choose, and continue to choose the path which you travel, for you do not understand the overview of your journey since this is not the density of understanding, and you operate within a forgetting that increases the value of the choices that you make and the path that you travel in your total beingness, so forget the fear of failure, and continue to choose fearlessly, knowing that each choice has the opportunity to teach, and if you will listen with your inner being, discern with your mind, and join the two in meditation, you shall lead yourself through your own choices along that path which is the most helpful for the growth that you so seek at this time. On October 14, 2023, Q’uo spoke of the nature of our overview:

When there is enough of the realization of the nature of one’s own reality as being that of the Creator at various levels of experience likened to the octave of notes, then there are increasingly more visible perceptions available to the seeker, so that a wider range of view may be experienced: what you may call the overview that increases in its range and depth of perception as one is able to open the inner eye, the heart to a greater reality. This is a perception that can go on infinitely as one moves through the various densities of this octave of creation.

We would now attempt to close through another instrument, if possible. We shall now transfer this contact. I am Hatonn.

(A channeling)

I am Hatonn, and greet you through this instrument. We would speak but briefly in closing to give the reminder that if ever our presence is desired, all you need to do is ask, and we shall be with you. Seek us out in your meditation. We are with you always. We shall leave you tonight in the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai. We are known to you as Hatonn.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of our one infinite Creator. What a privilege it is once again to be with you. We sincerely appreciate the opportunity which you extend by your invitation. We are always excited to speak to this group. This group has been our longtime friend, shall we say, and to join with friends is, indeed, an honor and a great joy. May we then ask if we might be of assistance by attempting to answer queries this evening. May we ask for the first query?

C: I’ll try to get a question out of this, and try not to ramble too much, and try not to ask for anything specific. But of late I’ve been extremely nervous, and confused, and unable to make decisions. I can’t seem to distinguish what is the proper avenue to take to serve others around me. When I meditate on it, it seems that a feeling that no matter what the choice, I would be serving myself more than others. Could you talk to me about such a state of confusion?

I am Latwii, and shall attempt to penetrate to the heart of your query, my brother. Within your illusion there are many opportunities for learning. The greatest opportunities present themselves as what your people call the problem, the crisis, the trauma, for when things are going smoothly, my friend, what is being learned? Quite often, little of value. But look you then to the situation which presents the crisis. Within the self one seeks in such a situation to resolve the crisis. Yet if the crisis is of such proportions that the entity cannot put, shall we say, all the pieces together to complete the puzzle in one fell swoop, then the entity finds itself mired, shall we say, within the crisis.

To put it more properly, may we suggest that the crisis is within the entity, and the depths of the crisis begin to appear great. If you will look at any situation which might be called a crisis, any such situation has the ability to awaken the deeper portions of an entity’s being so that awareness is increased. The awareness is increased usually through what may be called pain, the suffering, the tears. The trauma of the situation which is not resolved or balanced within the thinking of the entity experiencing it begins to carve out within the entity new boundaries of perception, new potentials for experience. As the entity consciously works with the catalyst of the crisis, the opportunities for learning expand, yet are often unrecognized as the entity continues the process of working with the catalyst. Confusions often occur as the entity attempts to make decisions that shall, it hopes, end the crisis.

C asked: “But of late I’ve been extremely nervous, and confused, and unable to make decisions. I can’t seem to distinguish what is the proper avenue to take to serve others around me. When I meditate on it, it seems that a feeling that no matter what the choice, I would be serving myself more than others. Could you talk to me about such a state of confusion?”  Latwii began by saying within your illusion there are many opportunities for learning, and the greatest opportunities present themselves as the problem, for when things are going smoothly what is being learned? Then Latwii said often little of value, but look to the situation which presents the crisis, for within the self one seeks in such a situation to resolve the crisis, yet if the crisis is of such proportions that the entity cannot put all the pieces together to complete the puzzle in one fell swoop, then the entity finds itself mired within the crisis. Then Latwii said we suggest that the crisis is within the entity, and the depths of the crisis begin to appear great, so if you look at any situation which might be called a crisis, any situation has the ability to awaken the deeper portions of an entity’s being so that awareness is increased through suffering, and the trauma of the situation which is not resolved within the thinking of the entity experiencing it begins to carve out within the entity new potentials for experience, for as the entity consciously works with the catalyst of the crisis, the opportunities for learning expand, yet they are often unrecognized as the entity continues the process of working with the catalyst, so confusions occur as the entity attempts to make decisions that shall end the crisis. On March 25, 1989, Latwii described how confusions occur for us:

We ask you to become aware of the present moment. All of eternity exists now. Time is an illusion; space is an illusion; your consciousness is not. Many, many confusions occur because you live in an illusion with the x-axis of time and the y-axis of space. There are other illusions, but they are illusions. The reality is closer to you than your breathing, but one is completely unable to find it. It is your consciousness. Work with it until you are happier with yourself today than yesterday, and at the same time, as always, we caution each never to be discouraged, for each day is a new day and a new start. Each day is the present moment. Each moment intersects with eternity, and in each moment, there is the presence of the living and infinite Creator.

There are various resources and forces within the deeper mind, as well as aid from those presences which you may call angelic or guides, which provide the entity with the impulse to resolve the situation in the most efficacious manner possible according to the entity’s chosen polarity. Therefore, the entity may find the, shall we say, easier solutions quite difficult to make, for the easier solutions are not always the most efficacious. The entity is provided with aid from the inner resources that allow it to make the most helpful choice according to the polarity which it has chosen. The situation of crisis, then, allows an intensive experience of choosing to continue along a certain path of polarity to the entity. The crisis is, shall we say, the cutting edge of consciousness. The entity may go in either direction, the service to self or the service to others. The more intensive the lesson, the greater the crisis, the more opportunity for learning.

Do not fear that you shall make the wrong choice, for no choice is final, and each choice builds upon previous choices and will lead to yet further choices, so that the entire process may be looked upon as one which continues to provide the opportunity for increasing the polarity of the individual. As you move through this situation, attempt to view it as often as possible from what might be called a neutral situation or position. Perhaps within your meditation you may be able to remove yourself from the emotional colorations which lend to your confusion, and place your attention in a position which allows you to look down upon the situation, shall we say, and see yourself and all others within it as actors upon a stage. Look then to the dynamics of the movement and interaction. See that part which you play. Become the author of the script. Attempt to discover what potentials await your learning. What is the lesson that is being taught? How has it been learned? How might the learning be increased? Attempt to remove yourself periodically in such a manner so that you might gain an overview and a more full appreciation of the process which presents you with great opportunities for learning.

Then Latwii said there are resources within the deeper mind, as well as aid from those presences that are angelic or guides which provide the entity with the impulse to resolve the situation in the most effective manner according to the entity’s chosen polarity, for the entity may find the easier solutions difficult to make, but the easier solutions are not always the most helpful, so the entity is provided with aid from the inner resources that allow it to make the most helpful choice according to the polarity which it has chosen, and the situation of crisis allows an intensive experience of choosing to continue along a path of polarity to the entity, so the crisis is the cutting edge of consciousness, and the entity may go in either direction: service to self or service to others, and the more intensive the lesson, the greater the crisis, the more opportunity for learning. Now Latwii said do not fear that you shall make the wrong choice, for no choice is final, and each choice builds upon previous choices and will lead to yet further choices, so that the entire process may be looked upon as one which continues to provide the opportunity for increasing the polarity of the individual, so as you move through this situation, attempt to view it as often as possible from a neutral position because within your meditation you may be able to remove yourself from the emotional colorations which lend to your confusion and place your attention in a position which allows you to look down upon the situation and see yourself and all others within it as actors upon a stage, so look to the dynamics of the interaction, and see that part which you play, and become the author of the script, and attempt to discover what potentials await your learning, for: “What is the lesson that is being taught? How has it been learned? How might the learning be increased?” Then Latwii said attempt to remove yourself periodically in such a manner so that you might gain an overview and a more full appreciation of the process which presents you with great opportunities for learning, and in such a discipline your deeper mind and those entities which aid through it may be able to give you clearer guidance so that your choices might be more informed, so attempt to remove fear from yourself, for this distorts that which is experienced, and go forth in confidence knowing that you have great opportunity to learn and to share the Love and Light of the one infinite Creator which seeks to be known in each moment that you experience. On February 3, 2018, Q’uo spoke about the value of the overview on our spiritual journey:

It would be well if each could, shall we say, step back from the situation and attempt to grasp an overview—attempt with eyes seeking reasons and possibilities as to why the situation is perceived as it is, and experienced as it is. If this perspective can be achieved, there may be more information of a more harmonious nature that can begin to assemble the pieces of the puzzle for both. Each contains that which is necessary for grasping the overall picture so that neither entity becomes lost within the forest, shall we say, but is able to move beyond the wooded glen to the hilltop, and look behind at that which has been the difficult experience. 

May we answer you further, my brother?

C: No, thank you very much, Latwii. That gives me quite a lot to work with. Thank you.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my brother, for this opportunity to serve. May we attempt another query at this time?

A: Yes, Latwii, I have a question, and it has to do with my channeling. I was wondering if you could aid me at all in why I might be having difficulties in picking up a channel. At meditations now I seem to draw a blank even though the tuning seems to be well, and I’ve been mediating daily, but I’m a little confused on why I’m drawing a blank.

[Page 7 is missing from the original transcript.]

Latwii: … personal origin. The concept itself is more clearly transmitted from Confederation entity to the instrument. Each process and transformation which the instrument opens the self to will require of the instrument that it increases its desire to be of such service and increases its willingness to be the fool, shall we say. Yet as these continual exercises—or mental pushups as we may call them—continue to be offered to the instrument, the entity will find the ability to transmit Confederation philosophy is quite enhanced, and the service which it wishes to offer is likewise enhanced.

May we answer in more depth, my sister?

A: No, that will give me something to work with.

I am Latwii. We would simply comment at this time in response to both queries that it is often the plight and pleasure of the seeker to find the opportunities for increasing service and oneness to be presented in situations which provide the trauma, the doubt, the confusion, and the difficulty in perceiving clearly. This is the nature of any exploration into that which may be called the unknown. Rejoice, my friends, in your doubt, in your confusion, in your frustrations, and in your anger. For they are signposts which alert you to the fact that your seeking is increasing, and the opportunities for knowing the Love and Light of the one Creator are also increased.

May we attempt another query at this time?

A: I have none, but thank you for that last bit, Latwii.

C: Yes, thank you.

I am Latwii. It has been a great privilege, my friends, to be with you this evening, even for what you might call a brief moment. All such gatherings are treasured by us who are known to you as Latwii. We cannot express to you our gratitude in the appropriate terms which would be understood clearly. We feel the appreciation within those who have had queries this evening for that which we have humbly offered in service. May we express, then, to each present the same gratitude increased manyfold, for you provide us with great service by asking for our humble service. For each, we seek to know and to serve the one Creator who resides within each portion of the one creation, and by such offerings of service have you allowed us to increase our knowledge of the One who is present in all. We shall leave you at this time in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. Be at peace, my friends. Go forth in joy, for yours is the great journey into unity. I am Latwii. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning I was invited to listen to a podcast by

This afternoon the quote from The Art of Meditation is: “God’s Love flows out as our Love, but let us not claim it as your Love or as mine. This Love is flowing as the sun is shining, freely upon all. The sun shines without favoritism, shining freely upon all. The sun shines without favoritism, never questioning the merits or worth of the recipients of its warmth and Light. The sun shines; God loves. God’s Love flows freely to the just and the unjust, to the deserving and the undeserving, to the saint and the sinner alike. God’s Love pours into this universe, giving life to the seed, strength to the growing plants, protection to animal, vegetable, and mineral life. God’s Love is the supporting and animating influence of all creation because all creation is Love, Itself, freely flowing.

All that is, is in and of God. There are no exceptions. There must be no labels of criticism, or of judgment, or of condemnation. Above all things we must not judge after the testimony of the eyes or the ears. God is too pure to see iniquity, and when we recognize our true identity as God in expression, we shall see as God sees. As we behold ourselves spiritually endowed, we become beholders of God appearing in all and through all. But we can do this by the seeing of the eye and the hearing of the ear.

God’s infinite understanding becomes our understanding. God’s infinite Love becomes our Love. If God is the infinite nature of our being, what need is there to be envious, to be jealous, to be hateful, or to be ambitious? When we know that God is the source of our inner satisfaction, how can we long for anything eternal to our own being? In this relationship, the blessings of God unfold as our experience.

God has imparted to us Itself. In the realization of our true identity, we partake of the very Body of God; that is eating the Body and drinking the Blood. ‘I have meat to eat that ye know not of. I can give you life—waters that spring into life eternal—the invisible waters, invisible wine, invisible meat.’ This is partaking of the living God, or the living Word, and watching the Word become flesh and dwell among God incarnate in the flesh.”

This afternoon I was on a podcast with a dear friend of Carla’s and mine, Pupak Haghighi, and she was talking about the history of Iran, where she grew up, which has gone through many changes over the years culminating in the present killing of many Iranian protestors. For the last 47 years Iran has been ruled by leaders of the Islamic religion and has fallen into ruins because of the Islamic governance which has resulted in a great deal of pollution that makes it difficult to breathe, and one of the largest pristine lakes has also been destroyed. This past month the Islamic government has cut off internet access periodically which has caused many Iranians to protest these ways that their country is being destroyed. On January 8^th and 9^th 35,000 protestors were massacred, and since then about 200 people have been killed on a daily basis, and many are in prison. Now 60% of Iranians cannot afford food to eat. If anyone of my readers would like contact her or to donate to help the Iranian people you can use Pupak’s email address: hoopoesong@gmail.com

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

February 8

Seek The True Image Of Love

I am the Holy Spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ, and I overshadow this instrument with the consciousness of Love.

Just in such a way may we greet each and overshadow each with the Love that is a kind of truing device, so that each spirit which seeks Love may, by asking, receive the comfort of closer and closer knowledge of the true wholeness and unity of creation.

The untrue perceptions which abound within your experience are a matter of gazing upon the streaming array of scenes and experiences about you as if through a vastly distorting carnival mirror. Seek, then, the true image of Love in whatever your gaze falls upon by invoking the Comforter, the pure consciousness of love.

We leave you in the symmetry and grace of the Love of Jesus Christ and in His peace, now and ever. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of Love and open our hearts minds, and souls to send Love, Light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite Love, Light, and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our Love, Light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn and Latwii channelings come from February 20, 1983:

(M channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am now with this instrument. I greet you with the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. Many times people feel alone, but in reality you are never alone. There are people who have gone away, and there are people who are coming who are involved in your life. They give you support of which you are not aware. You do not just have your friends in the third dimension, but you have friends in the third dimension that you do not even know because of the illusion of forgetfulness. Sometimes you feel that your problems are more than you can bear, but in the total line of your soul there will be happiness and contentment to lessen your sorrows. Never feel alone. There are always many souls concerned with your welfare. If you will just remember this one sentence a lot of the loneliness of your third dimension will disappear.

I am Hatonn. I leave this instrument.

(S channeling)

I am Hatonn, and greet you, my brothers and sisters, in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We thank you, as always, our friends, for allowing us to share in the very beautiful vibrations that encircle you together as one-on-one thought of seeking the Creator in this way. We would like this evening to share with you a few thoughts on the subject of being one with your brothers and sisters. This, our friends, is not at all times easy to accomplish. You may look on one who is not so agreeable, and perhaps tend to think that this person is not a part of you. But yet, my friends, it is each and every one you come in contact with each day of your lives that is a part of you and you a part of them. For within the creation there is only the separation that is brought about within the illusion. Within the Creator, my friends, there is no separation. All is one.

Each day as you are involved in your daily routine and as you meet your brothers and sisters, would you, if you knew that the one that you consider a stranger, if you knew, my friends, that he was the one known as Jesus, would you treat him perhaps as lightly as you do that stranger? For he, my friends, is as the one known as Jesus, as are you. We put out these thoughts to you, my friends, that you may stop for a moment and consider again the beauty within each and seek to see the inner beauty of each of your brothers and sisters. Do not stop at the outer covering, for with a little effort you may indeed find the beauty that you have been seeking.

We would like to transfer this contact. I am Hatonn.

(C channeling)

I am Hatonn and am now with this instrument. As you continue to seek, you will find that you will become ever more sensitive to those around you. As you begin to go within, to see the beauty and the Llove that is you, you will find that you will also reach out and look at that same beauty in others. Others may not be able to see as you do, and you may well find there are times that your reaching out may tend to shut others in. Your path and your knowledge as they begin may seem lonely at times, for it does seem paradoxical that reaching out can shut you away from others. But do not be disheartened. Continue and you will find that with your growth you can begin to reach others, be more a part of them, share with them, experience together as one. The beauty, the peace of touching others is, indeed, a wondrous thing. So, continue to reach out, and do not be disheartened if first attempts are rejected. The rewards are great. The Love to be shared is great.

I am Hatonn, and would, if we may, close out this message through another instrument. I am Hatonn.

(K channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am now with this instrument, and in closing we would like to remind you of the admonition in the book known as the Bible. In numerous places in the Bible, we are told to rejoice always, even in tribulation. My friends, rejoicing diminishes what you see as problems. This may be difficult to comprehend, but if you will give it a little thought you will recognize the truth of the statement that rejoicing does, indeed, diminish our problems, or what we perceive as problems. And it is always well to remember that the power within us is greater than any problem we may face. So, my friends, you can take heart under all circumstances. And remember that rejoicing is the panacea for all ills.

It has been a pleasure to be with you this evening, and, as always, we leave you in the love and the light of the infinite Creator. I am Hatonn.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii. I greet you, my friends, in Love and Light. We are most honored to be called to your group again this evening to offer our humble service, that is, the attempt to answer your queries. We remind each entity that though we enter into this service with great joy and eagerness, we are fallible messengers, and our advice, though it may seem studied and somewhat perceptive, is only meant to serve as a guide, and is but a trinket when compared to that which resides within your very being. Therefore, may we attempt now the first query?

M: I have a question. I’ve been reading the psychic Ruth Montgomery’s new book, Threshold to Tomorrow, and she says that Einstein has come back and is in the body of a Swedish engineer Bjorn [inaudible]. Do you feel that this is probably true?

I am Latwii. This is, of course, a possibility which upon careful investigation upon our parts could be determined. Yet, we find that information of this nature is not our specialty, shall we say. Our specialty is the transmission of those thoughts and concepts which those present might find of use in accelerating the evolution of the mind, the body, and the spirit. Usually, entities who seek in that manner shall find that information of the sort which this question contains is only of peripheral use in the evolutionary process. Entities such as the one of which you have spoken are most usually of great distortion towards service to others, and therefore it would not be at all unusual to expect such an entity, even if harvestable, to return to this plane and illusion in order that the fruits of its own efforts might be shared with others and nourishment might be given.

May we answer you further, my sister?

M: No, thank you, that’s very good.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister. Is there another query?

K: Well, yes. Along the same line, I’ve heard only recently that a group of people who have been hypnotized indicate under hypnosis that lots of children are being born now for the express purpose of trying to save the planet, and there was some indication that the children were from other densities, such as perhaps the fourth or fifth density. Could you comment on that?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my sister. Indeed, at this time on your planet there is the birthing of a great number of entities of various origins who have come to aid the planetary consciousness in its evolution, for, indeed, your planet evolves with your people. Many have come as what you have called wanderers for many thousands of your years. These have been in small numbers until what you call recent times, that is, the last two centuries. During this period the number of these entities has increased greatly in order that the vibrations of your planet, which have through the three great major cycles tended to be somewhat of the heavy or gross nature may be assisted.

There have been also within recent times, that is, the last half century, the beginning incarnations of those which shall form a portion of the fourth-density positive population of your planet. These entities have been harvested from third-density planets from other what you call solar systems and have been given the honor of early incarnation upon your planet as harvest is begun. Their incarnations are hoped to aid this harvest as the lightness, or shall we say, the distortion towards Love of their vibrations is added to the cumulative planetary vibration. These entities also enter into a forgetting, yet they bring with them skills which are not so easily forgotten, and there are many of small experience—what you call children—upon your planet at this time who demonstrate skills which are normally called by your people extraordinary or paranormal. These skills are the subconscious remembering of lighter vibrations which have been brought with the entity for the purpose of aiding the evolution of this planet.

K asked: “I’ve heard only recently that a group of people who have been hypnotized indicate under hypnosis that lots of children are being born now for the express purpose of trying to save the planet, and there was some indication that the children were from other densities, such as perhaps the fourth or fifth density. Could you comment on that?” Latwii began by saying at this time on your planet there is the birthing of a great number of entities of various origins who have come to aid the planetary consciousness in its evolution, for your planet evolves as do your people, for many have come as wanderers for thousands of years, but these have been in small numbers until the last two centuries, and during this period the number of these entities has increased greatly in order that the vibrations of your planet, which have through the three great major cycles tended to be of the heavy nature. Then Latwii said there have been, in the last half century, the beginning incarnations of those which shall form a portion of the fourth-density positive population of your planet, and these entities have been harvested from third-density planets from other solar systems and have been given the honor of early incarnation upon your planet as harvest is begun, and their incarnations are hoped to aid this harvest as the distortion towards Love of their vibrations is added to the cumulative planetary vibration, but these entities also enter into a forgetting, yet they bring with them skills which are not so easily forgotten, and there are many children upon your planet at this time who demonstrate skills which are normally called paranormal, for these skills are the subconscious remembering of lighter vibrations which have been brought with the entity for the purpose of aiding the evolution of this planet. In 65.12, Ra described the ways that wanderers can aid the evolution of the population of Earth:

You may at this time note that as with any entities, each wanderer has its unique abilities, biases, and specialties, so that from each portion of each density represented among the wanderers comes an array of pre-incarnative talents which then may be expressed upon this plane which you now experience; so that each wanderer, in offering itself before incarnation, has some special service to offer in addition to the doubling effect of planetary Love and Light and the basic function of serving as beacon or shepherd.

Thus, there are those of fifth density whose abilities to express wisdom are great. There are fourth- and sixth-density wanderers whose ability to serve as, shall we say, passive radiators or broadcasters of Love and Love/Light are immense. There are many others whose talents brought into this density are quite varied.

Thus, wanderers have three basic functions once the forgetting is penetrated, the first two being basic, the tertiary one being unique to that particular mind/body/spirit complex.

We may note at this point that while you ponder the possibility/probability vortices, that although you have many, many items which cause distress and thus offer seeking and service opportunities, there is always one container in that store of peace, Love, Light, and joy. This vortex may be very small, but to turn one’s back upon it is to forget the infinite possibilities of the present moment. Could your planet polarize towards harmony in one fine, strong moment of inspiration? Yes, my friends. It is not probable; but it is ever possible.

The majority of incarnations at this time upon your planet, however, are of two types. The largest by far of the portions are those entities who have spent many, many incarnations upon your planet as third-density entities attempting to learn the lessons of Love. Their attempts have been successful enough that they have the possibility of attaining harvest in the positive sense in the short period of time which remains before the harvest is complete upon your planet. The smaller portion of entities incarnating is that portion which also has attempted to achieve graduation, shall we say, in the negative sense, or the service-to-self sense. Thus, you will find upon your planet at this time a great polarization in consciousness occurring. That is, you will find great examples of Love of others and service to others, and great examples of Love of self and power over others.

Latwii went on to say the majority of incarnations at this time upon your planet are of two types, and the largest of the portions are those entities who have spent many incarnations upon your planet as third-density entities attempting to learn the lessons of Love, and their attempts have been successful enough that they have the possibility of attaining harvest in the positive sense in the time which remains before the harvest is complete upon your planet, but the smaller portion of entities incarnating has attempted to achieve graduation in the service-to-self sense, so you will find upon your planet at this time a great polarization in consciousness occurring, and you will find examples of Love of others and service to others and examples of Love of self and power over others. On November 27, 2002, Q’uo described the requirements of the harvest:

Indeed, in one of the other stories about the harvest, this entity suggested that laborers went into a vineyard to harvest grapes and worked most of the day, and there were those who came very late in the day to working upon the grapes, yet, at the end of the working day, all were given the same coin. This is true of the harvest as well. It does not matter when in the 75,000 years of learning the awakening and realization of the true nature of the self occurs, it matters only that it occurs. The one known as Jesus the Christ was the first of the messengers of that which is to come and that which is already here in part: that being the age of unconditional Love that is fourth density, that is the very nature of the lesson of third density. Graduation occurs when the heart is able to remain open, in more than half of the circumstances of life, to the welfare, happiness, comfort, safety, and service of others. The heart needs to be awakened and inflamed with the desire to know the truth that lies within the open heart. By keeping the heart open, the learning process is greatly enabled for the seeker, and, by attempting to serve others, the eyes of Love begin to be given reason to open.

May we answer you further, my sister?

K: No, that answered the question very well, thank you.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister. Is there another question?

K: Yes. One follow up on that question has occurred to me. You indicated that the lesser portion was the negative, and some of them are very powerful. I’m assuming some of these powerful people are in politics. Is that right?

I am Latwii. It is possible for each entity to view the culture in which it exists and to see those structures of organization which are based upon a few with what you have called power exercising that power over a great many which do the bidding of a few. You will see about you many structures in your society, not only within the arena called political, but those of your armed forces, your economic institutions, your business concerns, and so forth. The principle of negativity is that principle which intensifies the illusion of separation which is implicit within all creation. The illusion of separation is then used by those who have gained a knowledge of the negative polarity to dominate those who are not what is called elite, shall we say. Whatever characteristics determine the elite, then, are those characteristics which are used to separate the elite from the non-elite. Therefore, you may see the distortion towards negativity within many, many portions of your environment, and, indeed, within the self, for are not all entities one, and do you not contain all things?

May we answer you further, my sister?

K: No, that’s very good. Thank you.

I am Latwii. We thank you once again. Is there another query at this time?

M: I have one. Within a lifetime, is there ever a person who is decidedly negative or positive who changes, and what would cause that great change within a lifetime?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my sister. It is most unusual for an entity to completely change the polarity during an incarnation within the third density, for within your density the great forgetting which occurs makes progress, shall we say, difficult enough that when one polarity is discovered to be successful or helpful to the entity in its evolution, it is most usually intensified so that the efficacy is continually enhanced. There are many, many cases, however, where entities, shall we say, mix their polarities, not having the knowledge of the principle of polarization. The great majority of entities upon your planet, for example, swing in might be called the potential well of indifference, moving at times in service to others with great sincerity, moving also as the pendulum at times in service to self with great dedication. This is normal upon this particular planet at this time. For an entity to change completely the seeking from one polarity to the other and be efficient in that seeking is most unusual.

May we answer you further, my sister?

M: Well, I was thinking, say, of an alcoholic who was very destructive to himself and other people who changed—say, belonged to AA, and became quite helpful to other people. Would that be a change of polarity or not?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my sister. We come to the problem here of semantics, for such an entity most usually will be one whose background is more distorted towards the previously mentioned potential well of indifference, being neither intensely positive nor intensely negative. The transformation which occurs due to the, as you mentioned, alcoholic nature being transformed to one of abstinence and service to others is a transformation which is then more purely positive and has not then usually moved from the negative sense, but has moved from the unpolarized state wherein the seeking was not of pure enough nature, either positive or negative, for the entity to move from its confusion. The entity may at the transformation of what you have spoken then choose a more purely positive seeking and become more and more efficient in that seeking and move itself from its confusion.

May we answer you further, my sister?

M: No, I think that explains it very well.

I am Latwii. We hope we have been of service. May we attempt another query at this time?

[Pause]

I am Latwii. We find that we have exhausted the queries and perhaps one of your members. We hope that we have not been too ponderous this evening. We thank each present for inviting our presence. We are always honored to join this group, and we remind each present that a simple request for our presence in your meditations shall find us joined as one, more consciously than we are always joined. We shall now leave this group, rejoicing in Love and Light and leaving each in that same Love and Light. Peace to each and blessings. We are known to you as Latwii. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning it was once again my honor to be the guest on Jonathan Tong’s Seattle Law of One Study Group. Some of the questions I was asked are: “How have I lived my life in these last 40 years?” “How do we deal with global warming?” “Why did Abraham Lincoln let the fourth-density entity take over his incarnational lessons?” “Are whales third-density beings?” and “How do I express my blue ray as a hermit?” I am looking forward to my next session with these Loving beings whose questions always contain some facet of their journey back into unity with the one infinite Creator.

This afternoon the quote from The Art of Meditation is: “God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, of Love, and of a sound mind because God is the very mind of our being. We have no mind apart from God. Our ignorance, or fear, and our insanity have been in the belief of a mind apart from God, the belief of a soul apart from God. God’s Being is individual being, and when seen through spiritual vision, only the qualities of God and the nature of God comprise individual being.

“I and my Father are one . . . he that seeth me seeth him who sent me . . . I am in the Father, and the Father in me.” Spiritual discernment reveals God as the Father and God as the Son. In the realization of this oneness is our completeness and our perfection. There can be no peace, security, or joy separate and apart from God. Peace, security, and joy are inherent in God and for this reason must be indigenous to us through the realization of God as our own being.

The great secret of scripture is: in the beginning—God. In the beginning all that was, was God: now and forever, all that is, is God. God is appearing as the infinity, glory, and strength of Its own being or my being, but Its infinite Being which appears outwardly as your being and as mine—I in God and God in me, and this one Being spiritual, infinite, perfect, harmonious, whole, and complete. God’s Being is perfect; God’s understanding is infinite. God’s strength enables us to mount up as the eagle. God’s joy overflows our cup. Let us acknowledge God’ joy, God’s health, God’s Understanding, God’s peace, God’s harmony, God’s purity, and God’s integrity. Let us drop “my” this or “my” that and “your” this or “your” that. God’s Being expressing as grace is our sufficiency in all things. God’s grace, God’s presence. God’s joy. God’s Love, God’s allness—is our sufficiency.”

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

Softness Of Heart

I am the Spirit of the living Christ, and I greet you in the full consciousness of perfect Love.

We would give to you and to all the peoples of Earth the grandeur and the glory of creation, the aspect of heaven which your eyes do not see but which rests imperishably within each perishable mote of shape and substance in the creation.

We would give to you the softness of heart to perceive glory. And yet often you who seek the living Spirit of Love feel that you must toughen and harden yourselves to be more effective blunt instruments for Christ. Yet Christ is not one desirous of seeing large generalities or of using blunt instruments.

Jesus the Christ wishes to send you into the world as a soft, complex, subtle, and quietly shining being, one who celebrates the imperishable in every perishable situation; one who can ignore the perishable even when a less subtle heart would be prone to condemn and turn away.

The strength of Jesus the Christ seems often like softness, yet there is more steel in the velvet manipulations of the Spirit than in the hardened thrusts of all the righteous lances in the perishable universe.

May your hearts be softened and may you find peace in the imperishable, 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 our Love, Light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn and Latwii channelings for this session come from February 13, 1983:

(S channeling)

I am Hatonn, and am now with this instrument, and greet you, my brothers and sisters, in the Love and Light of the one infinite Creator. As always, with great joy we greet you. We are so pleased to be among those that are truly joyous to share time, as you perceive it, with others of like mind, of the same desire in striving. For in so doing, does it strengthen your own desires in striving. For in sharing with other selves, you are able to see within your own selves, and as this happens, my friends, we encourage you to continue.

This evening there are a few points we would like to consider, one of these being looking within, taking time to consider the well of strength and knowledge that comes from looking within your own self, to see the Creator that is within each and every one of you. We speak often on the subject of meditation, my friends. We realize this may at times be most boring to you, but this, as with other simple messages, can never be stressed enough. For it is through your daily meditation and through your daily prayers that you are able to accomplish that which you have set out to do in this lifetime. If there are a few moments of the day which are routinely set aside to turn the eyes inward, so to speak, then this would serve to help in a way that would perhaps better serve you than possibly reaching out to your other selves, expecting an answer from them that might possibly be an infringement upon your own free will, should they answer.

My friends, we would not at any time expect that you are asking to do that which is not comfortable and can only hope to serve you, and ask that within our words you accept what is comfortable with you and discard the rest. We share our simple messages with much Love for you, and even though at times it may seem as though we seem to be in the position of the parent scolding the errant child, this is not the way of our messages at all. But the thought that we send through these instruments we send with much Love for your continued striving and growth.

We would at this time like to transfer this contact to another instrument. I am Hatonn.

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I greet you through this instrument in Love. We shall continue through this instrument.

What do you consider enough meditation? Indeed, what is the ultimate result desired? Firstly, let us examine the creation to discover that each entity experiences the Creator and the creation and therefore cannot help acting in a correct manner regardless of the action. Secondly, let us consider the possibility that the Creator is most efficiently experienced if the experiencer is experiencing the Creator in such a way that they are at all times aware of the presence of the original Thought of the Creator, and further, are capable of manifesting the original Thought in each moment. Is this possible, my friends? It is our limited understanding that, indeed, this is the intent of consciousness—to know itself in such a way that is finally and completely unmasked so that there are no divisions, and all things become infinite in diversity, yet truly and obviously one. We would ask you to consider a story that is within the holy work which you call your Bible. The one whom you call Jesus spoke of giving, and indicated that it was difficult to give properly from abundance, but that rather the proper giving was that of the widow whose sole treasure was two coins which she gave. This, said the one known as Jesus, was the far greater giving.

My friends, do not be falsely led into consideration of monetary generosity of any sort by this parable. The parable has to do not with the giving of coins, but of the giving of a life. If your whole life equals two coins, and you give it all, it is acceptable. If your existence equals a million coins, and you give five hundred thousand, it is not acceptable. The charge that you give yourself by desiring to know the truth is that charge to give yourself to the truth when you find it—not a portion of yourself, not a tithe of yourself, but all that you have been, are or will be, and in the giving, release the self from bondage. Imagine yourself as the coins dropping into the box. Now they have not fallen nor are they clasped in the hand. Now they are free to be infinite. And how can you do this for one second without the constant discipline of meditation or some activity which affects you personally in a centering, clearing, and joyful manner? Can you possibly give yourself completely to the experience of the Creator as the Creator truly is without discipline? Can you expect to express love for one second in its original form without discipline?

In this session Hatonn was discussing the value of meditation. They began by saying let us examine the creation to discover that each entity experiences the Creator and the creation and cannot help acting in a correct manner regardless of the action, and let us consider the possibility that the Creator is well experienced if the experiencer is experiencing the Creator in such a way that they are at all times aware of the presence of the original Thought of the Creator and are capable of manifesting the original Thought in each moment, for it is our understanding that this is the intention of consciousness to know itself in a way that is completely unmasked, so there are no divisions, and all things become infinite in diversity and obviously one, so we would ask you to consider a story that is within your Bible where Jesus spoke of giving, and said that it was difficult to give properly from abundance, but the proper giving was that of the widow whose sole treasure was two coins which she gave, and Jesus said was the greater giving. Hatonn went on to say do not be falsely led into consideration of monetary generosity of any sort by this parable because the parable has to do, not with the giving of coins, but of the giving of a life, so if your life equals two coins, and you give it all, it is acceptable, but if your existence equals a million coins, and you give five hundred thousand, it is not acceptable, so the charge that you give yourself by desiring to know the truth is that charge to give yourself to the truth when you find it, not a portion of yourself, but all that you have been, are, or will be, and in the giving release the self from bondage, so imagine yourself as the coins dropping into the box, and now they are free to be infinite: “And how can you do this for one second without the constant discipline of meditation or some activity which affects you personally in a centering, clearing, and joyful manner? Can you possibly give yourself completely to the experience of the Creator as the Creator truly is without discipline? Can you expect to express love for one second in its original form without discipline?” On May 4, 1986, L/Leema spoke of the value of disciplined meditation:

One can only thank a mirror. It is but glass with a backing to show you to yourself. That backing may not think itself to be neutral, may not consider itself a catalyst, but rather an apostle of what is right. This is not important to one who listens, for the Creator is speaking to you in condemnation as well as in praise, and if there is a lack of patience when looking in the mirror, then perhaps the gaze may be, through the discipline of meditation, found to become more and more easy as one comes into loving and compassionate unity with the one who judges.

You see, my friends, the search for truth is like the addiction which is in this instrument’s mind as the topic of conversation before the meetings. You become addicted to the joy of being whole. This enables you to do a great deal of work, for there are no sales on truth. You will not find it cheaply. There are not bargain days, and any who promises will be promising speedy happiness and speedy despair. There are no gimmicks, there are no shortcuts. There are simply glimpses of the utmost joy, feelings of going into another world where all is as beautiful as a thought that you have just had.

To keep your faith in yourself enough alive to continue an arduous and long journey, now let us turn to meditation. If meditation is the fuel that will enable each entity to experience the truth, then seeking is the fuel that will enable you to meditate. We ask you, what is meditation? Do you think of sitting upon a mountain? Do you think of old men in white robes with long beards? That is not a full representation of the wisdom one gains in meditation and the time it takes to get it. But we ask you instead, my friends, to think of meditation as a process, as the trip up that mountain. You are in your street-soiled clothing, and it is warm day, and the valley below you has the stench of too much civilization. As you climb, the smog recedes, and the warm, clean air begins to glow about you. A white butterfly dances before you. And you laugh at the sweet-smelling air, and the butterfly, and the fine day that you have found in the high place.

Hatonn continued by saying the search for truth is like the addiction which is in Carla’s mind as the topic of conversation before the meetings, and you become addicted to the joy of being whole, and this enables you to do a great deal of work, for there are no sales on truth, but you will not find it cheaply, and any who promises will be promising speedy happiness and speedy despair, for there are no shortcuts, yet there are glimpses of joy and feelings of going into another world where all is as beautiful as a thought that you have just had. Hatonn went on to say to keep your faith in yourself enough alive to continue an arduous and long journey, so now let us turn to meditation, and if meditation is the fuel that will enable each entity to experience the truth, then seeking is the fuel that will enable you to meditate, so: “We ask you, what is meditation? Do you think of sitting upon a mountain? Do you think of old men in white robes with long beards?” Then Hatonn said that is not a full representation of the wisdom one gains in meditation and the time it takes to get it, but we ask you to think of meditation as the trip up that mountain, so you are in your street-soiled clothing, and it is warm day, and the valley below you has the stench of too much civilization, yet as you climb, the smog recedes, and the warm, clean air begins to glow about you, and white butterfly dances before you, so you laugh at the sweet-smelling air, and the butterfly, and the fine day that you have found in the high place. On January 6, 1985, Latwii described the value of our search for truth:

Any ritual performed by an entity or group of entities derives its power, as you call it, from the purity of intention or desire on the part or parts of those performing the ritual. This purity of desire is built over the span of a life as an entity pursues either consciously or unconsciously the search for truth. As the desire to pursue this search for truth intensifies within an entity, this entity then builds what you have called the magical personality, the manifestation of inner seeking. When this magical personality expresses itself in ritualized form, then there is the metaphysical creation of that desire in accordance with the purity of desire.

After much climbing, when you are weary, you come to a perfectly smooth lake, and it is so clear that you can see to the very bottom, so you remove your clothing and swim across this lovely lake, and as you walk up the other shore of this small mountain lake, you find that there are new garments waiting for you to pick: garments fresh and comfortable in every way, for all that is without you is now cleansed, and you walk to the mossy seat that overlooks vast distances, so you allow all things to flow away, for you have been washed clean, and that which is before you is new, but you do not need to come out of that meditation because the more you practice meditation, the more the process will be a portion of you, and then that process begins to give you the will to call upon the state of mind in which the kingdom of heaven and the Creator are all about you, for those things which are full of the smell of semantics and civilization may be seen from that viewpoint, and you may choose that viewpoint any moment, and you may behave in the Light of your relationship with the Creator, rather than your relationship within an illusion to the Creator, as that portion of the Creator is experiencing Itself, so choose, and each time that you do, know that it is your choice,  and when we speak to you of meditation, we wish to give you the tool for renewal of the sense of the original Thought that each of you seeks with such determination. Hatonn went on to say on January 6, 1980, Latwii described the original Thought:

It does not seem possible that you could live without law. But we say to you, my friends, that there is a greater law. And it is a law that extends beyond humanity’s concept of law. It is the law of the original Thought. If you could understand the original Thought, you would know what there is to know, and your soul would no longer journey, it would no longer seek, nor harvest, nor share. For it would be one with all seekers, all harvesters, and all sharing. If you could understand the original Thought, you would be Love. You would not be seeking Love. The original Thought is within you. It is not without you. When you look at the world with the original Thought in your heart you can see Love. If you look at the world without the original Thought you can only see the illusion of disharmony, and naturally you will desire to ease the situation by using laws. But when you understand the original Thought, you find yourself viewing this same world with eyes that see Love.

I would transfer at this time. I am known to you as Hatonn.

(K channeling)

I am Hatonn, and we would say a few words through this instrument in closing. We want to continue with the thought of addiction as one seeks truth. Or in reality the seeking of truth is the seeking of the self, the understanding of the self, and as you discover more of the beauty of the self that each of us is, it, indeed, is like an addiction. The more one discovers, the more one is capable of discovering. And indeed, it becomes like finding a brilliant jewel, and the more one finds, the greater the addiction. And, one might even say, the greater the addiction, the more one finds. And you will spend all of eternity discovering more of the self, because the infinite Creator resides within each self. Life takes on a totally different meaning as one truly discovers the beauty, and the depth, and the color that resides in each of you. One stands in awe, indeed, as one begins to understand the Creator really does reside in each of us. Your life need not be powerless. As you live day by day and continue in your meditations, and as these thoughts grow within you, you will indeed be like the light set on the hill. It is indeed worth the time you have spent in seeking.

We repeat that it has been a joy to be with you. And we leave each of you now in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. I am Hatonn.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and I greet you, my friends, in Love and Light. It is our privilege once again to join your group in response to your request for our presence. We join you with great Love for each of you and with an eagerness to serve which is, shall we say, our constant companion. May we then attempt our service at this time by fielding your first query?

M: Latwii, I have a query. What is the best way to help a person who has some form of addiction?

I am Latwii. My sister, we feel that in such a situation, the support one gives such an entity is most important. To support one who has a strong attachment to anything, idea, person, or pattern of existence is to give of the self without reserve for the purpose of letting the one to be served know that whatever its condition, with or without the addiction, the entity is acceptable to you. To give this support is to build within the entity’s understanding a firm foundation upon which it might stand and move as it attempts to balance the distortions which seem out of balance. It is often the case that such entities who attempt to help one who has what you have called an addiction will attempt to help the entity free itself of that addiction through various means. This is the beginning of treading on very shaky ground, shall we say. To attempt without being specifically asked to enter into such a delicate situation is not usually recommended, but to support the entity as it makes its own efforts in that direction is most helpful in almost every situation.

May we answer further, my sister?

M: Yes. If a person is, as we were discussing before, non-functioning, what is the best approach?

I am Latwii. When an entity has suffered the bearing of such addictions to the point that it is unable to function within the normal definition of your culture, then it is often necessary to aid such an entity by providing, shall we say, the common sense support of attempting to secure the shelter, the food, the clothing, the medicine, and the companionship for such an entity that it might be nurtured to the point where once again it is able to make those decisions for itself. It is important that the door to these decisions always be left open for such an entity, yet it may be necessary in some cases that the entity is assisted through that door. May we answer you further, my sister?

M: No, thank you. I think you’ve explained it very well.

I am Latwii. We are grateful to you, my sister. May we attempt another query at this time?

Carla: Well, following up on that, the alcoholic—the experience that I have had with my relative was such that when she was sober, and in that state very intelligent, she suggested that she was suicidal, and that if she drank, she was attempting to die, and that any encouragement from any member of the family would only hasten her death. Consequently…

[Side one of tape ends.]

Carla: …sturdy in their own right, and by her own suggestion, in this case, simply refusing to see her if she drank. This she felt was her only chance at becoming sober again. However, if I follow you correctly, even though it worked, spiritually it was very shaky ground. Is this correct?

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and shall attempt clarification. The general suggestion which we have given, as all general suggestions, must bear the light of the specific situation. To give support to an entity who is suffering these difficulties may take many forms. Our suggestion is that one Love without conditions. How this Love is expressed is not set firmly. One may Love and support another in the manner in which the entity of which you speak desired. When an entity speaks in such a manner and asks for that type of assistance, then to Love most purely, it might be the case that these desires are met. It may be that many such entities would desire this type of assistance, and that it would be successful in aiding their recovery. Others may need some variation. If one can know what another needs by hearing those needs from the other, then one may best serve as one has been asked. If one knows not how to serve, one then must follow the heart. The Love then that is given may take another form. Begin in Love, refine with the wisdom which you discover either through your own discernment or through the lips of the one needing service.

May we answer you further, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you, Latwii.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister. Is there another query at this time?

K: Yes, Latwii. Let me just see if I understand a little bit better. The support and the love that you talk about I’m assuming would carry with it the notion that there is no judgment at all about the problem that the person is experiencing. For instance, for the most part our conversation with alcoholics oftentimes is judgmental. And so, this support and this love would have to come across in such a way that the one who is addicted would know that we do not hold any judgment at all against the alcoholic. Is that true?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my sister. It is our recommendation, which we humbly offer, that in any situation of this nature that it is most helpful to act from a position which has no judgment within it. For to judge another is to build a barrier between you and the other, and then all succeeding actions must be filtered through that barrier. This tends to distort the love and the wisdom which you have to offer so that it appears to the other less than what it is. To remove the judgment is to attempt to see clearly and is that action which allows the clearer giving of assistance.

May we answer you further, my sister?

K: No, thank you, I think that clears it up.

I am Latwii. We are thankful to you. Is there another query at this time?

Carla: Just one final one on the same subject, only backwards. Can you generalize about the purpose for experiencing the addiction? There seems to be an addictive type of personality. There seems to be an addictive type of body, chemically. There seem to be some very distressing things that go on during addiction to some substance like alcohol, or hard drugs, or tranquilizers, yet people repeatedly seek that addiction out. Can you generalize on why?

I am Latwii. We are not fond of generalizations though they are most frequently our lot. In addressing queries such as have been asked this evening, it is necessary to speak in general terms in order that an overview can be given, yet to speak in general terms is to limit oneself greatly. For each entity is quite unique, and though each entity does fall within certain groupings and may be, therefore, in some cases, spoken of in general terms, yet one cannot look at each entity within any group and speak accurately in all instances. Therefore, we shall attempt a generalization with those qualifications understood.

Entities who experience what you call addictions to various substances such as the alcoholic beverages and the, as they are called, harder drugs, are oftentimes entities of great sensitivity and creativity. Entities within the culture in which you now exist who contain within themselves delicate sensitivities, budding creativities, and who yearn to express that which they feel they are, yet who also find such expression blunted by the general, shall we say, milieu, become sometimes frustrated, and find that their only solace is to turn inward and to ponder how to exist as a finely tuned being in what seems to be a gross and greatly overpowering world. Such an entity will often turn inward to such an extent that it becomes reclusive.

Such an entity will find there are various aids to intensify this reclusive nature. The aids of the drugs and alcohol tend to turn the entity further and further in upon the self so that those sensitivities which began the entity’s yearning and seeking for expression, become themselves blunted so that they no longer motivate the entity in the manner which found no expression. It is often that the turning inward and the use of the substances which alter the mind is specifically chosen that the mind might be altered, for it is the sensitive mind, and the sensitive heart, and the sensitive being that it seems to the entity began the pain. And yet these can be, shall we say, stilled in some degree, but then the entity assumes there will be no pain. Yet, can the spark of life which glows within any be extinguished? It is often a long journey until the entity discovers that the spark must live. And how that spark shall live is the decision which each must make.

Carla asked: “There seems to be an addictive type of personality. There seems to be an addictive type of body, chemically. There seem to be some very distressing things that go on during addiction to some substance like alcohol, or hard drugs, or tranquilizers, yet people repeatedly seek that addiction out. Can you generalize on why?” Latwii replied entities who experience addictions to various substances such as alcoholic beverages and the harder drugs, are often entities of great sensitivity and creativity, and entities in your culture contain delicate sensitivities, budding creativities, and they yearn to express that which they feel they are, yet they also find such expression blunted by the general environment and become frustrated and find that their only solace is to turn inward and to ponder how to exist as a finely tuned being in what seems to be a an overpowering world, so such an entity will often turn inward to such an extent that it becomes reclusive. Latwii continued by saying such an entity will find there are various aids to intensify this reclusive nature, for the aids of drugs and alcohol tend to turn the entity further in upon itself so that those sensitivities which began the entity’s seeking for expression become blunted, so that they no longer motivate the entity in the manner which found no expression, and it is often that the turning inward and the use of substances which alter the mind is chosen that the mind might be altered, for it is the sensitive mind, heart, and being that it seems to the entity began the pain, yet these can be stilled in some degree, but then the entity assumes there will be no pain, so it is often a long journey until the entity discovers that the spark must live, and how that spark shall live is the decision which each must make, and such an entity will find there are aids to intensify this reclusive nature, for the aids of drugs and alcohol tend to turn the entity further in upon the self so that those sensitivities which began the entity’s yearning and seeking for expression become blunted so that they no longer motivate the entity in the manner which found no expression, but it is often that the turning inward and the use of substances which alter the mind is chosen that the mind might be altered, for it is the sensitive mind, heart, and being that seems to the entity began the pain, yet these can be stilled in some degree, but then the entity assumes there will be no pain, yet it is a long journey until the entity discovers that the spark must live, and how that spark shall live is the decision which each must make. On May 26, 1996, Q’uo spoke about the nature of addiction:

In speaking to you about addiction we would like to begin by working with the word “addiction,” for this word is to your people what the word “vice” was in a previous age. Both describe the condition wherein an entity feels driven to do, or use, or be something, or some way. This calling of vice addiction makes it sound more vulnerable to, shall we say, the quick fix, and, indeed, for specific addictions there are quick fixes. However, the nature of addiction or vice can be seen to be that which takes a good thing and simply overdoes it. What drives entities to addiction very simply is the instinct that the body, the mind, and the spirit have to seek comfort, enjoyment, and peace.

May we answer you further, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you, that was very inspiring.

I am Latwii. We are most grateful to you, my sister. May we attempt another query at this time?

K: Yes, Latwii. I really think I know the answer to this, but I’d like to have your opinion. Do people—do some entities—well, in fact, lots of entities—before they incarnate again decide to live their lives in ignorance? Some people just seem, from my point of view, some people seem to hold on to ignorance as if it were something to be praised or enjoyed. They literally seem to hold on to their ignorance. Now do some entities choose this kind of a life before being born into this planet?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my sister. Each entity before incarnating sets before itself a basic scheme or blueprint for the life which will follow as the incarnation. The lessons to be learned all stem from Love within your illusion. How these lessons shall be learned is quite varied and unique to each entity. The veil which falls between the conscious and unconscious mind serves the purpose of allowing the entity to follow its path without a clear understanding of what that path is in order that the path, when followed, might carry weight within the total beingness of the entity. For an entity, then, to attempt to learn the lessons of Love, it is necessary that the limitations of this knowledge of oneness with all be firmly in place. This is the challenge, to discover Love within all of the experience without having more than a basic clue as to the nature of the Love and the lessons awaiting the entity.

The distortion which you have described as ignorance, may also be chosen in order that the lessons of Love might be learned on a very basic level. For an entity to exercise the ignoring of most of what is about it is to increase the effect of the veil and to increase the difficulty of the lesson. Yet if the lesson is learned under these circumstances, it carries great weight in the total beingness of the entity. In short, yes, my sister, the quality of ignorance is quite a valuable tool to many who seek the lessons of Love, and is freely chosen as a tool to aid that learning.

K asked: “Some people just seem, from my point of view, some people seem to hold on to ignorance as if it were something to be praised or enjoyed. They literally seem to hold on to their ignorance. Now do some entities choose this kind of a life before being born into this planet?” Latwii replied by saying each entity before incarnating sets before itself a basic blueprint for the life which will follow as the incarnation, and the lessons to be learned all stem from Love within your illusion, but how these lessons shall be learned is unique to each entity, for the veil which falls between the conscious and unconscious mind serves the purpose of allowing the entity to follow its path without a clear understanding of what that path is in order that the path might carry weight within the total beingness of the entity, for an entity to attempt to learn the lessons of Love, it is necessary that the limitations of this knowledge of oneness with all be firmly in place, and this is the challenge, to discover Love within all of the experience without having more than a basic clue as to the nature of the Love and the lessons awaiting the entity. Latwii continued by saying the distortion which you have described as ignorance may be chosen in order that the lessons of Love might be learned on a basic level, for an entity to ignore most of what is about it is to increase the effect of the veil and to increase the difficulty of the lesson, yet if the lesson is learned under these circumstances, it carries great weight in the total beingness of the entity, so the quality of ignorance is a valuable tool to many who seek the lessons of Love, and is freely chosen as a tool to aid that learning. On June 6, 1982, Latwii spoke about how we all are here to learn the lessons of Love:

The lessons of your density are the lessons of Love. When enough of your people learn to Love one another, then the entire creation sings and resounds with that harmony, and each atom rejoices and seeks to join more fully with each part of creation. Therefore, by whatever means is available to the entity, each entity might, therefore, send the Love and Light to the one creation in which your planet resides, to your planet itself, to each entity upon its surface, indeed into the self, and thereby assure the unification of all that is.

May we answer you further, my sister?

K: So, in a case like that, one does the entity a disservice by trying to enlighten, so to speak, is that right?

I am Latwii. This is not necessarily so, for each entity acts within an illusion which is populated with others such as itself, and the others serve as what might be called mirrors. It might be most helpful to such an entity to aid in its elimination, for no entity acts alone in truth. And each entity aids each other entity by interacting with that entity. To mirror the essence of another is to illumine the essence of another. And when you attempt, however you attempt, to aid another, you do indeed serve that other, for there is no way that one cannot be of service. To think in terms of service and disservice or right and wrong is to limit the perception, for in truth all actions and all inaction is service. All is service. The service may vary, yet the service exists and has its impact. There are no mistakes. Rest assured that you serve.

May we answer you further, my sister?

K: No, thank you very much.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister. Is there another query at this time?

[Pause]

I am Latwii. We are aware that we have exhausted the queries within this circle, yet we are aware that there is one who we perceive wishes to enter the circle, yet is hesitant. We shall therefore, take our leave of this group at this time. We rejoice in your beingness, our friends. Call upon us to join you in your meditations whenever you wish our presence. We leave you in Love and Light and blessings of the One. We are known to you as Latwii. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning the quote from The Art of Meditation is: “All things in heaven and on Earth are given unto us because of this relationship of divine sonship. All things that exist, exist for our purpose. As joint heirs with Christ in God, this Earth is ours. From everlasting to everlasting, we are fulfilled. God has ordained the law governing the union with the beloved Son, providing Him with all that belongs to God and drawing unto the Son all that God has established for Him, since before the foundation of the world:

“I am come that they might have life, and that they might have life—My life. My life is the life of individual being, knowing no age, knowing no change, knowing no deterioration from its God-estate. But you must abide in My Word, and you must let My Word abide in you and be saved.”

There is a glory of the Father prepared for the Son. There is a peace—My peace—the peace that passeth understanding. This peace is embodied in the Soul of humanity: it is never dependent upon any external condition; it exists as the gift of God in the midst of us. Our mistake has been in seeking peace from each other, in believing that others had the power to give or to withhold peace, or in relying upon others for our harmony. In this reliance on people and outer circumstances has been our failure and the failure of the world. Only in God can peace be found. God has given to each one of us infinite peace, everlasting dominion, and all-encompassing Love.”

This afternoon I drove to Mount Sterling, Kentucky to visit a former neighbor of mind who lives in the Mount Sterling Care Home. I showed her the Facebook email that she sent me a few weeks ago that had all of her family and many of her friends in it. Then I showed her pictures and videos of my new kitten, Mystical Joy and other pictures of friends and places from my younger days. We had a great time together, and I looked forward to seeing her again next month.

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

February 6

Today

I am the Comforter, and I speak to you in the wholeness of the Love of Jesus the Christ.

Today is a word which means “the present.” Yet how little time each may spend in peaceable, comfortable thought concerning today! Many hark back to yesterdays which seem unsatisfactory and experience emotions negative and sorrowful. Many more gaze into tomorrow with fear and apprehension.

Yet it is today that the Father watches and sets His angels to guide and guard each of you. It is in the present that situations and relationships belong and in the present that help need be asked.

Yes, it is well to pray for forgiveness of yesterday’s sins and for peace of mind concerning an uncertain future. But the Spirit of the living Christ urges you to release all and focus upon the moment at hand. For in this moment lies the wholeness of creation, the energy of goodness, the Love of Christ, the sacrifice of crucifixion, and the sure knowledge of resurrection from any crucified pain or trouble.

Speak in your soul and heart this day of today and, as you ask for comfort, it shall rain upon you in a gentle, peaceful rain. There is help and comfort today.

May your joy be complete in the present moment. And in that moment may you find the peace of the consciousness of Love, now and ever. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of Love and open our hearts minds, and souls to send Love, Light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite Love, Light, and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our Love, Light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn and Latwii channelings come from January 30, 1983:

(C channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I am now with this instrument. We greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We wish to speak a few words on what for you is, indeed, of great difficulty in your illusion, that being what you know as choice. You, as all entities, are free willed in each thing. Each of your life situations is to you many different options of which you weigh and choose. Each entity’s choice becomes that entity’s responsibility. When your choice is made and the moment accepted, neither hate nor love the choice, but accept it for the moment. With each choice you are… with each choice take a step. Use your…

We are experiencing some difficulty in maintaining a good contact with this instrument. We would, as he requests, now transfer this contact to another. I am Hatonn.

(Jim channeling)

I am Hatonn, and greet you once again through this instrument in Love and Light. To continue. As you make your choices in this illusion, you will find that each choice brings yet more possibilities for choice. You operate within this illusion in a manner which might be called trial and error, though we would deemphasize the error aspect, for we do not feel that any choice can be an error. Yet from your experience you may discern those choices which are less efficacious than other choices, but this discernment is only possible as you continue to make choice after choice. You will find that the experiences which you gather through the making of choices will offer you hints, shall we say, that will aid you in further decision making, so that the entity which is able to analyze through the use of the mind those experiences which it has encountered is then able to take the gleanings of this analysis with it in meditation, and is able to allow new thought forms and possibilities in thinking to occur within the being.

Then this entity is able to continue a process of evolution which you may simply call growth, as you continue to expand and grow in your ability to utilize your mind, your body, and your spirit complexes in an ever-expanding understanding, if we may use this term, of the nature of your illusion. Then you will find a pathway which lies before you that becomes more and more distinct. For as you choose, you become more polarized, shall we say, by the choices you have made, and this polarization then becomes likened unto a momentum within your very being. The momentum of your choices to be of service, however you have chosen, then shows to the attentive entity the path which is most efficacious within each situation that it shall face in what you shall call your future.

In this session Hatonn wanted to speak about how we make choices that can aid our spiritual evolution. They began by saying as you make your choices in this illusion, you will find that each choice brings more possibilities for choice because you operate within this illusion by trial and error, though we would deemphasize the error aspect, for we do not feel that any choice can be an error, yet from your experience you may discover those choices which are less efficient than other choices, but this discernment is only possible as you continue to make choices, and you will find that the experiences which you gather through making choices will offer you hints that will aid you in further decision making, so that the entity which is able to analyze, through the use of the mind, those experiences which it has encountered is then able to take the harvest of this analysis with it in possibilities in thinking to occur within the being. Hatonn went on to say this entity is able to continue a process of evolution called growth, as you continue to grow in your ability to utilize your mind, your body, and your spirit complexes in an ever-expanding understanding of the nature of your illusion, and then you will find a pathway which lies before you that becomes more distinct, for as you choose you become more polarized by the choices you have made, and this polarization becomes like momentum within your being, and the momentum of your choices to be of service shows to the attentive entity the path which is most efficient within each situation that it shall face in your future. On March 28, 2009, Q’uo said that if we choose to do so, we can become positively polarized seekers:

You are walking matrices which are able to juxtapose and merge the physical and the metaphysical, the outer and the inner, the temporal and the eternal. Each of you is a walking gateway between two worlds. By calling upon the spiritual or metaphysical aspect of yourself, you awaken within yourself a great array of resources, and these resources may be used as you choose. Primary among these resources, in terms of increasing your rate of positive polarization, is your awareness of yourself as a person whose will is powerful.

When you set your intention to do something, you change things for yourself in terms of your energy body and in terms of that connection that you have with the metaphysical world. And so, the first thing we would suggest to those who would wish to increase their rate of polarization is to set your intention. There are various ways of doing this, the most simple of which is to say, “I set my intention to be one who wishes to polarize as quickly as I possibly can and still be able to integrate my learning.” However, it is efficacious to put more time in on the creation of this statement to yourself and your faculty of will. You may wish to write it out or have a ceremony or ritual whereby you, in conjunction with your guidance, set this intention.

Do not be afraid to choose, my friends. Do not fear that which is called the failure by many of your people, for there is in truth no such thing as failure. There may be instances wherein your choices shall not yield the results which you had hoped they would yield when you made the choices. Yet this is only a function of your imperfect understanding of what it is that will truly benefit your evolution in mind, body, and spirit. Rest within the assurance that you cannot fail as you choose, and choose, and continue to choose the path which you travel. You do not understand the complete overview, shall we say, of your journey, for this is not the density of understanding. You operate within a forgetting that increases the value, shall we say, of the choices that you make and the path that you travel in your total beingness. Therefore, forget the fear of failure. Choose and continue to choose fearlessly then, knowing that each choice has the opportunity to teach. And if you will listen with your inner being, discern with your mind, and join the two in meditation, you shall lead yourself through your own choices along that path which is the most efficacious for the growth that you so earnestly seek at this time.

Then Hatonn said do not be afraid to choose, and do not fear being a failure, for there is no such thing as failure, but there may be times where your choices shall not yield the results which you had hoped they would yield when you made the choices, yet this is only a function of your imperfect understanding of what it is that will benefit your evolution in mind, body, and spirit, so rest within the assurance that you cannot fail as you choose, and continue to choose the path which you travel, for you do not understand the overview of your journey since this is not the density of understanding because you operate within a forgetting that increases the value of the choices that you make and the path that you travel in your total beingness, so forget the fear of failure, and continue to choose fearlessly then, knowing that each choice has the opportunity to teach, and if you will listen with your inner being, discern with your mind, and join the two in meditation, you shall lead yourself through your choices along that path which is the most efficient for growth that you seek at this time. On November 13, 2010, Q’uo said that we cannot fail to be of service if we set our intention to be of service:

It is important, therefore, to begin with the knowledge that faith alone can give the assurance that all is well, and all shall be well, so that when your life takes a turn and seems out of control you know that your purpose and your service endure and are as close to you as your breathing. You cannot fail to be of service if you set your intention to do so. You can only fail to appreciate your efforts. We encourage you to appreciate your own efforts, to respect your own intentions even when they do not seem to result in the service that you thought was yours, for all things are of service to one who loves.

We would now attempt to close through another instrument, if possible. We shall now transfer this contact. I am Hatonn.

(A channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I greet you through this instrument. We would speak but briefly in closing to give the reminder that if ever our presence is desired, all you need to do is ask, and we shall be with you. Seek us out in your meditation. We are with you always. We shall leave you tonight in the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai. We are known to you as Hatonn.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of our one infinite Creator. What a privilege it is once again to be with you. We sincerely appreciate the opportunity which you extend by your invitation. We are always excited to speak to this group. This group has been our longtime friend, shall we say, and to join with friends is, indeed, an honor and a great joy. May we then ask if we might be of assistance by attempting to answer queries this evening. May we ask for the first query?

C: I’ll try to get a question out of this, and try not to ramble too much, and try not to ask for anything specific. But of late I’ve been extremely nervous and confused and unable to make decisions. I can’t seem to distinguish what is the proper avenue to take to serve others around me. When I meditate on it, it seems that a feeling that no matter what the choice, I would be serving myself more than others. Could you talk to me about such a state of confusion?

I am Latwii, and shall attempt to penetrate to the heart of your query, my brother. Within your illusion are many opportunities for learning. The greatest opportunities present themselves as what your people call the problem, the crisis, the trauma, for when things are going smoothly, my friend, what is being learned? Quite often, little of value. But look at the situation which presents the crisis. Within the self, one seeks in such a situation to resolve the crisis. Yet if the crisis is of such proportions that the entity cannot put, shall we say, all the pieces together to complete the puzzle in one fell swoop, then the entity finds itself mired, shall we say, within the crisis.

To put it more properly, may we suggest that the crisis is within the entity, and the depths of the crisis begin to appear great. If you look at any situation which might be called a crisis, any such situation has the ability to awaken the deeper portions of an entity’s being so that awareness is increased. The awareness is increased usually through what may be called pain, the suffering, the tears. The trauma of the situation which is not resolved or balanced within the thinking of the entity experiencing it begins to carve out within the entity new boundaries of perception, new potentials for experience. As the entity consciously works with the catalyst of the crisis, the opportunities for learning expand, yet are often unrecognized as the entity continues the process of working with the catalyst. Confusion often occurs as the entity attempts to make decisions that shall, it hopes, end the crisis.

C asked: “I can’t seem to distinguish what is the proper avenue to take to serve others around me. When I meditate on it, it seems that a feeling that no matter what the choice, I would be serving myself more than others. Could you talk to me about such a state of confusion?” Latwii began by saying within your illusion are many opportunities for learning. The greatest opportunities present themselves as trauma, for when things are going smoothly what is being learned? Then Latwii said quite often, little of value, but look at the situation which presents the crisis, for within the self one seeks to resolve the crisis, yet if the crisis is of such proportions that the entity cannot put all the pieces together to complete the puzzle in one fell swoop, then the entity finds itself mired within the crisis. Then Latwii said we suggest that the crisis is within the entity, and the depths of the crisis begin to appear great, but if you look at any situation which might be called a crisis, it has the ability to awaken the deeper portions of an entity’s being so that awareness is increased, and the awareness is increased through what may be called pain, so the trauma of the situation which is not balanced within the thinking of the entity experiencing it begins to carve out within the entity new potentials for experience, for as the entity consciously works with the catalyst of the crisis, the opportunities for learning expand, yet they are often unrecognized as the entity continues the process of working with the catalyst, for confusion often occurs as the entity attempts to make decisions that shall end the crisis. On May 30, 1982, Latwii spoke of how we can take advantage of opportunities for learning:

Entities upon your planet experience the depressed qualities of being when they have recognized within themselves, perhaps at a subconscious level, that they are not taking advantage of those opportunities for learning the lessons for which they incarnated, and therefore feel a drawing within the self so that the self might examine more carefully the purpose for the incarnation, and the lessons which are being presented to the self. This state of depressing the awareness within the being hopefully then, with guidance from others, will result in a new direction being chosen, and a new desire to proceed in that direction.

There are various resources and forces within the deeper mind, as well as aid from those presences which you may call angelic or guides, which provide the entity with the impulse to resolve the situation in the most efficacious manner possible according to the entity’s chosen polarity. Therefore, the entity may find the, shall we say, easier solutions quite difficult to make, for the easier solutions are not always the most efficacious. The entity is provided with aid from the inner resources that allow it to make the most helpful choice according to the polarity which it has chosen. The situation of crisis, then, allows an intensive experience of choosing to continue along a certain path of polarity to the entity. The crisis is, shall we say, the cutting edge of consciousness. The entity may go in either direction, the service to self or the service to others. The more intensive the lesson, the greater the crisis, the more opportunity for learning.

Do not fear that you shall make the wrong choice, for no choice is final, and each choice builds upon previous choices and will lead to yet further choices, so that the entire process may be looked upon as one which continues to provide the opportunity for increasing the polarity of the individual. As you move through this situation, attempt to view it as often as possible from what might be called a neutral situation or position. Perhaps within your meditation you may be able to remove yourself from the emotional colorations which lend to your confusion and place your attention in a position which allows you to look down upon the situation, shall we say, and see yourself and all others within it as actors upon a stage. Look then to the dynamics of the movement and interaction. See that part which you play. Become the author of the script. Attempt to discover what potentials await your learning. What is the lesson that is being taught? How has it been learned? How might the learning be increased? Attempt to remove yourself periodically in such a manner so that you might gain an overview and a fuller appreciation of the process which presents you with great opportunities for learning. In such a discipline, then, your deeper mind and those entities which aid through it may be able to give you clearer guidance so that your choices might be more informed and effective. Attempt to remove yourself from fear and to remove fear from yourself, for this, like any emotion, only distorts that which is seen and experienced. Go forth in joy and confidence knowing that you have great opportunity to learn and to share the Love and Light of the one infinite Creator which seeks to be known in each moment that you experience.

Latwii went on to say there are various resources within the deeper mind, as well as aid from those presences called guides which provide the entity with the impulse to resolve the situation in the most helpful manner possible according to the entity’s chosen polarity, and the entity may find the easier solutions difficult to make, for the easier solutions are not always the most helpful, so the entity is provided with aid from the inner resources that allow it to make the most helpful choice according to the polarity which it has chosen, and the situation of crisis allows an intensive experience of choosing to continue along a certain path of polarity to the entity, for the crisis is the cutting edge of consciousness, so the entity may go in either direction, the service to self or the service to others, and the more intensive the lesson, the greater the crisis, the more opportunity for learning. Latwii continued by saying do not fear that you shall make the wrong choice, for no choice is final, and each choice builds upon previous choices and will lead to yet further choices, so that the entire process may be looked upon as one which continues to provide the opportunity for increasing the polarity of the individual and as you move through this situation, attempt to view it as often as possible from a neutral position, so within your meditation you may be able to remove yourself from the emotional colorations which lend to your confusion and place your attention in a position which allows you to look down upon the situation and see yourself and all others within it as actors upon a stage, and look to the dynamics of the interaction, and see that part which you play, so you become the author of the script, and attempt to discover what potentials await your learning, yet attempt to remove yourself periodically in such a manner so that you gain a fuller appreciation of the process which presents you with opportunities for learning, for in such a discipline your deeper mind and those entities which aid through it may be able to give you clearer guidance, so that your choices might be more effective, and attempt to remove fear from yourself, for this emotion distorts that which is experienced, yet go forth in joy and confidence knowing that you have a great opportunity to learn and to share the Love and Light of the one infinite Creator which seeks to be known in each moment that you experience. On May 16, 1976, Hatonn described the value of removing fear from ourselves:

Again and again, we have suggested meditation. There is a method of dealing with the illusion, by which you can use those happenings which are within the illusion in such a way that they become reality, and they are so constructive in helping you along your spiritual journey.

The method for doing this is to remove fear from your attitude towards the illusion. Meditation is a great aid towards removing fear, for if you are confident from your meditation of the fact that all that exists is Love, then whatever occurs on the outer planes, no matter whether it is pain, or death, or birth, or pleasure, you will be able to see it for what it is—that is, Love—and accept pain and death, as well as pleasure and birth, so that the circumstance which is real upon the outer plane is absorbed into your being as it is, that is, as reality, and not as the illusion which your premature reactions will cause it to become.

Love casts out fear. This has been written in your holy works, and it is, indeed, true. If you fear any set of circumstances that may occur, you will not be able to see the reality of Love within these circumstances. It takes a good deal of resolute practice to refrain, finally, from fear of pain. But, my friends, on the outer planes, this is what is. Pain and pleasure. Accept both within that stillness of being which is an awareness of Love.

May we answer you further, my brother?

C: No, thank you very much, Latwii. That gives me quite a lot to work with. Thank you.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my brother, for this opportunity to serve. May we attempt another query at this time?

A: Yes, Latwii, I have a question, and it has to do with my channeling. I was wondering if you could aid me at all in why I might be having difficulties in picking up a channel. At meditations, now I seem to draw a blank even though the tuning seems to be well and I’ve been mediating daily, but I’m a little confused on why I’m drawing a blank.

[Page 7 is missing from the original transcript.]

Latwii: … personal origin. The concept itself is more clearly transmitted from Confederation entity to the instrument. Each process and transformation which the instrument opens the self to will require of the instrument that it increases its desire to be of such service and increase its willingness to be the fool, shall we say. Yet as these continual exercises—or mental pushups as we may call them—continue to be offered to the instrument, the entity will find the ability to transmit Confederation philosophy is quite enhanced, and the service which it wishes to offer is likewise enhanced.

May we answer in more depth, my sister?

A: No, that will give me something to work with.

I am Latwii. We would simply comment at this time in response to both queries that it is often the plight and pleasure of the seeker to find the opportunities for increasing service and oneness to be presented in situations which provide the trauma, the doubt, the confusion, and the difficulty in perceiving clearly. This is the nature of any exploration into that which may be called the unknown. Rejoice, my friends, in your doubt, in your confusion, in your frustrations, and in your anger. For they are signposts which alert you to the fact that your seeking is increasing, and the opportunities for knowing the Love and Light of the one Creator are also increased.

May we attempt another query at this time?

A: I have none, but thank you for that last bit, Latwii.

C: Yes, thank you.

I am Latwii. It has been a great privilege, my friends, to be with you this evening, even for what you might call a brief moment. All such gatherings are treasured by us who are known to you as Latwii. We cannot express to you our gratitude in the appropriate terms which would be understood clearly. We feel appreciation within those who have had queries this evening for that which we have humbly offered in service. May we express, then, to each present the same gratitude increased manyfold, for you provide us with great service by asking for our humble service. For each, we seek to know and to serve the one Creator who resides within each portion of the one creation, and by such offerings of service have you allowed us to increase our knowledge of the One Who is present in all. We shall leave you at this time in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. Be at peace, my friends. Go forth in joy, for yours is the great journey into unity. I am Latwii. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning the quote from The Art of Meditation is: “As we contemplate the glories of God that already exist, we are acknowledging God and bearing witness to Its grace, which has provided all this good without our having asked for it or begged for it. We become witnesses of the activity of God on Earth.

At night, looking up at the starry sky, no one is ever anxious about tomorrow’s sun. Not one of us will sit up tonight to pray that the sun will rise tomorrow. God requires no supplication, information, or advice from us in regard to the government of Its universe, and even should we pray all night in an attempt to change the hour of sunrise, there is no doubt but that the sun will rise tomorrow at its appointed time. Tomorrow night the moon and the stars will continue to move in their orbits; the tides will rise and ebb twice in every twenty-four hours. Praying to God, petitioning God, or begging God will not change God’s law. God’s work is done; God’s law is in operation.

In the contemplation of the wonders of God’s universe, we transcend the desire to inform God of anything or to ask God for anything. Such contemplation lifts us to the heights of the Psalmist’s vision that the Earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof. In a quiet, silent walk in a park, by seashore, lake, or river, in our aloneness, we catch that vision. We look up to the hills, to the mountains, to the heights of consciousness and behold only that which God beholds and know only that which God knows. Anything that lifts us in consciousness above the clamor of the senses and the noises of this world will serve to ring us into the presence of God. When we reach the divine heights of inspiration, we find God. God is a deep silence; God is stillness, the stillness of all that is human.”

This afternoon I ran three errands with my first stop being at Paul’s Fruit Market to buy some food for myself. My second stop

was at Speedway Gas where I filled all of Stanley’s tires to 32 psi. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I picked up a couple of prescriptions.

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

February 5

Vehicles Of The Spirit

I am the Spirit of the living Christ, and I speak to you through this instrument in peace.

May you experience Love washing over you in waterfalls and great channels of swift-moving power.

Yet if you do not experience the Spirit in this wise, know that it is also through quiet and subtle movements and effects that the spirit makes itself known to the churches and to humankind. For it is not only those who gesture and speak with authority, claiming a closeness with the Spirit by virtue of station or special knowledge that others do not have, that spread transformation upon the Earth but also every movement of light, every creation of form and every happenstance and event which carries the message of the Spirit of Christ.

Look for the spirit of Love in unlikely and hidden places as well as the great shelves and benches of sunlit and authoritative existence and information, for we of the principle of Love scorn nothing. All is a vehicle fit for the Spirit, and all is fit to be transformed through Jesus the Christ.

May the peace of transformation be with you now and always.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of Love and open our hearts minds, and souls to send Love, Light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite Love, Light, and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our Love, Light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. The Hatonn, Oxal, and Latwii channelings for this session come from January 23, 1983:

(S channeling)

I am Hatonn. We greet you, my brothers and sisters, in the Love and Light of the one infinite Creator. We would like to express our appreciation and joy in being called among you. Our small and at times seemingly meaningless messages, however, we hope may be at some point in your lives in your illusion of some help. This evening, we would like to tell of a small entity who in his life would at times jump from here to there with no direction in mind. He continuously sought for whatever materialistic things his life might offer in the way of joy and happiness. In this small entity’s life he acquired many items, items that for a short while might bring happiness as they would intrigue the imagination for a short period of space and time and then would be laid aside to acquire another object.

This pattern was repeated for many, many years until the small entity became larger, and then once again in the much later years became bent with age. This entity sought many, many years for things of the illusion which he could hold, but, my friends, he did not contemplate the one small fact that this illusory thing that was called happiness was at all times within his reach and would not have been a passing matter if he had but looked within, if he had but taken but a few moments of each day to look within himself to contemplate the actions of that day, to see within himself the balance of the negative and the positive. This balance, my friends, this balancing of your mind, of the emotions which riddle your life, of the catalyst with which you have chosen to deal, of the lessons you have chosen to learn, with this balancing, with acceptance of all things within. This, my friends, is where peace is to be found, not without, but from within. From the portion that is one with the Creator and if allowed to manifest itself within your life can bring about the desired balancing.

We feel at this time the desire to transfer this contact to another instrument. I am Hatonn.

(M channeling)

I am now with this instrument. I greet you with the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. In your illusion there is much teaching. Some people have so much within them they find [inaudible]. If they can step out of themself for a short time each day and maybe see the humor in their lives, if they can laugh at themselves either alone or with a friend, some of their tension can be relieved. Laughter is a wonderful safety valve. If you can see the humor in what you say, or do, or what happens to your environment, you can relieve a lot of your tension. Try to find something humorous instead. If you cannot find anything humorous, at least step out of yourself and give the tension time to dissipate. See yourself from a distance, and your problems won’t be as great. Remember, you do not have to solve all your problems; you only have to live through them. You will make it to the end, one way or another. In the end you will find that a lot of the things that caused you so much worry really were insignificant. Step out of yourself and appreciate the things about you. If you cannot laugh, at least see beauty. Appreciate the sunrise. Appreciate the sunset. Appreciate your loved ones. If you cannot laugh, if you have not advanced to the stage of laughter, start with gratitude. And if you cannot be grateful, at least step out of yourself. Put some distance between you and your problems. Life is not as serious as some people make it. Get some pleasure out of living.

I am Hatonn. I leave this instrument.

(K channeling)

I am Hatonn, and again I greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. We would like to say a few words through this instrument about how to step out of yourselves. As you are aware, there is unity in the universe, and nothing is left to chance. Even though it may appear to you that everything is in chaos, this is not true, because there is a pattern and unity in the universe. At the cellular level all is one, and all is known. Try to imagine yourself under a tree, and then imagine yourself part of the tree and the tree a part of you. And then imagine that as you enjoy the beauty and the shade of the tree, the tree also enjoys your presence. This kind of imagination can run rampant as we imagine ourselves merging with everything about us. We can furthermore imagine that everything about us rejoices in the infinite Creator, because indeed all are one. In the final analysis, all is Love. We only see things as separate and at cross-purposes. It might even be helpful to imagine that you Love your enemy, if you have one. This might take some doing sometimes, but to pretend as a small child pretends is, indeed, helpful. Before you go to sleep tonight try some exercise that would help you to feel that you are part of everything about you, and that all is at peace, and that all are joyful because, indeed, the inner self does know.

It has been a pleasure to be with the group tonight. It has been a pleasure to serve you, as always. I leave you now in the Love and Light of the infinite Creator. I am Hatonn.

(Carla channeling)

I am Oxal, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of the infinite Creator. May the splendor of that Light be known to you each day, for surely you are of the race of Light and it is your birthright to know that Light and that Love. We thank this group for calling us this evening. We have not spoken over much with your group for some time and it is a privilege which we enjoy.

Stars look down upon you as you rest in sleep, and a deep and gentle rain falls, and in the middle of that slumber, one of your telephones awakens you with its insistent sound. One asks you to remove yourself from comfort, place yourself in the rain, and drive one of your vehicles some miles to where this one is stranded. This one is your sweetheart, your beloved, the sun of your waking hours, the dream on your sleep, and you do not feel the rain and the miles cannot go by quickly enough. This one is an acquaintance, an annoyance, and it is all that you can do to refrain from saying “No.” You stand by the well in a hot and arid land, and you hold a dipper of water, precious in a dry land. The well is deep, and it costs great effort to get each drop of water from deep beneath the sandy ground. One comes to you travel-stained and weary and asks for water. This one is the Messiah, and you gladly give what you have earned with such hardship.

This one is a stranger, whose looks are alien and whose ways are not your own, and you hand him an empty dipper and go away. You get into a boat to cross a river. The water flows. The other side will calm your thoughts, rest upon the affairs of your world. The one who guides your boat is Gautama Buddha. And you gaze in wonder upon the water itself, the farther shore forgotten in the miracle of the present moment.The one who guides your boat is a man with a stubbled beard, jersey clothes, and your gaze once again turns to the far shore. It is an interesting illusion you live in, my friends. Whom do you see? To whom do you react? What is the nature of your brother, your sister, yourself? If you look upon each surface, you shall always find the mundane. If you find Love, then you rush to acknowledge it. If you find the perfection of him at the well who can give you greater water than that of this illusion, you will give all that you have in order to associate with the giver of such great wealth. This incident was written in that book which you call the Bible, the one known as Jesus saying, “I have water. I am not thirsty. I can give you water that will allow you never to thirst again.”

Oxal gave examples of the variety of beings that we may meet that are all a part of us and the one Creator. They began by saying stars look down upon you as you rest in sleep, and a gentle rain falls, and in the middle of that sleep, your telephone awakens you with its sound, so one asks you to remove yourself from comfort, place yourself in the rain, and drive one of your vehicles to where this one is stranded, for this one is your beloved, and the sun of your waking hours, the dream of your sleep, and you do not feel the rain and the miles cannot go by quickly enough, but this one is an annoyance, and it is all that you can do to refrain from saying “No,” so you stand by the well in a desert, and you hold a dipper of water, so the well is deep, and it costs great effort to get each drop of water from deep beneath the sandy ground, and one comes to you travel-stained and weary and asks for water, but this one is the Messiah, and you gladly give what you have earned with such hardship. Oxal went on to say this one is a stranger whose ways are not your own, and you hand him an empty dipper and go away, and you get into a boat to cross a river, so the other side will calm your thoughts as you rest upon the affairs of your world, for the one who guides your boat is Gautama Buddha, and you gaze in wonder upon the water and the distant shore forgotten in the miracle of the present moment, and the one who guides your boat is a man with a stubbled beard, and your gaze again turns to the far shore, for it is an interesting illusion you live in, so: “Whom do you see? To whom do you react? What is the nature of your brother, your sister, yourself?” Oxal said if you look upon each surface, you shall find the mundane, but if you find Love, then you rush to acknowledge it, and if you find the perfection of Him at the well who can give you greater water than that of this illusion, you will give all that you have in order to associate with the giver of such great wealth, and this incident was written in the Bible where Jesus said “I have water. I am not thirsty. I can give you water that will allow you never to thirst again.” On December 6, 2003, Q’uo spoke about the Messiah:

It is remarkable, given the fact that the one known as John was a family member, that this entity recognized in his cousin, the one known as Jesus, not a cousin, not a relative, but the Messiah, as he understood that term, the “one who comes in the name of the Lord.” A tremendous amount of power was transferred from John to Jesus and from Jesus to John at that time. It truly was a remarkable day and one which may be seen to be the point at which the one known as Jesus moved from witness to actor, from being to doing, from potential to actual, from inner to outer.

There are those who help you in your life, those who steer your boat, and you gaze at the shore, not at the one who plies the oars. But is that one not perfection? You know the name called Buddha. But what does this name represent? A man who has found the moment. It is so. Each of you can feel the greatest amount of desire for a sweetheart, for a teacher, for one who is enlightened, and yet all, beginning with yourself, have these aspects at the core of beingness that creates each entity. Whom do you wish to delete from those who are perfect? You cannot delete even one. Not even one who freezes this night, drunken and penniless. Not even one who fattens himself upon power in its dishonest use, not even one who has stolen all that he has, not even one who cannot recognize reality—not even yourself.

The night is full of stars, and we speak as if from a great distance from beyond those stars. We weave a web of inspiration, but we are fools, and we speak to the foolish. For if we were truly wise, we would not be speaking. We would be existing in unity with all. This we are not doing. We are attempting to learn wisdom. And so, we are aware. Are you? It is the attempt of a fool to see perfection in the illusion. Yet it is the responsibility of the seeker to be a fool. For those who are wise in your world will use their wisdom, and it shall be buried with their bones. There is no one, no entity at all that is not absolutely necessary for the wholeness of the universe. Each portion of the creation is utterly desirable. The next entity who seeks money from you upon the sidewalk is Buddha, Christ, your sweetheart. How fast will you run to aid him? What drink will you gain from him that will let you never thirst again? What priceless present moment can you find with a derelict?

Oxal continued by saying there are those who help you in your life, those who steer your boat, and you gaze at the shore, not at the one who plies the oars, and you know the name called Buddha, for this name represents a man who has found the moment, so each of you can feel the desire for a sweetheart, for a teacher, for one who is enlightened, and yet all, beginning with yourself, have these aspects at the core of beingness that creates each entity, but you cannot delete even one from those who are perfect, not even yourself. Then Oxal said the night is full of stars, and we speak as if from a great distance from beyond those stars, so we weave a web of inspiration, but we are fools, and we speak to the foolish, for if we were wise, we would not be speaking, but we would be existing in unity with all, but this we are not doing, for we are attempting to learn wisdom and become aware, so it is the attempt of a fool to see perfection in the illusion, yet it is the responsibility of the seeker to be a fool, for those who are wise in your world will use their wisdom, and it shall be buried with their bones, for there is no entity that is not necessary for the wholeness of the universe since each portion of the creation is desirable, so the next entity who seeks money from you upon the sidewalk is Buddha, Christ, your sweetheart, so: “How fast will you run to aid him? What drink will you gain from him that will let you never thirst again? What priceless present moment can you find with a derelict?” On November 20, 1986, Yadda described why we should be a fool:

You are the people who have too many clothes on. You wear four coats, three sweaters, and sixteen pairs of pants. What are you protecting yourself against in this seeking of yours? It is good to be naked against Love. That is all that we have to say to you. Be a fool for Love. Do what comes into your heart to do. And don’t look back.

I am Oxal. I leave you within the illusion, knowing that you are at least looking through the bars of this prison you have chosen. You have chosen this prison, this illusion just so that you yourself may find perfection, reality, the ideal that is so obviously not there. We are with you and leave this instrument, blessing each, for to be foolish in the seeking of an ideal is divine folly. Seek carefully, and with Love. In that Love we leave you and in that Light we cannot help but leave you. We are Oxal. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the light of the infinite Creator. We are pleased that this group has chosen once again to ask for our humble service. We bring it, as always, rejoicing as we come, thankful for the opportunity of being with you and of searching with you for the truth of our existence. May we then ask if there is a query with which we might begin?

M: Are all the fourth dimension groups acquainted with one another, or are they isolated the way the third dimension is?

I am Latwii. To answer your query, we may begin by suggesting that although those of fourth density are more fully aware of the unity of their being, there is for many still some inability to perceive the, shall we say, individualized existence of others like unto themselves. Those of the density of understanding do indeed perceive…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii. To continue. The existence of those who dwell within and learn understanding and compassion is an existence which is far more broad than your own, for the veil which separates your conscious from your unconscious mind is being removed more and more fully within this density. Therefore, to summarize. Though it is more possible for such entities to know the fullness of the existence of their own kind, shall we say, many yet seek to complete this understanding.

May we answer you further, my sister?

M: No, thank you, Latwii.

I am Latwii. We are thankful to you, my sister. Is there another query at this time?

Carla: Is there ever a point at which knowledge of the infinite is part of an individual entity or social memory complex?

I am Latwii. As the progression through the densities of this octave continues, the knowledge of unity with all portions of the creation increases. This has been likened unto the gaining of what might be called spiritual mass. As this awareness of unity progresses into that density of seven, there is the movement into timelessness which necessarily precedes the full rejoining of each portion of an entity’s awareness with the unity from which it sprang.

May we answer you further, my sister?

Carla: Yeah, there’s a joke about a guy that knows everybody in the whole world. And yet that’s a finite number of people, entities compared to the infinite of all of the galaxies and all of the populations. It just, you know, intellectually boggles the mind to think about knowing everybody, every entity. Maybe you can’t approach it intellectually, huh?

I am Latwii. To respond to your query, may we suggest that the faculties of the mind are indeed quite boggled by such an experience. Therefore, it is of necessity that the infinity of mind give over in function to the infinity of spirit, that through this foundation source of beingness all that exists might be known as a portion of the great Self which is the one Creator. Your creation exists that this one Creator might know Itself, and as the process of evolution occurs for each entity, then the Creator gains in knowledge of Itself as each portion becomes aware of more of its identity as the one Creator. The reciprocal knowing of the small self as the great Self and great Self as the small selves reaches this stage of what we have called spiritual mass increasingly so that the fullness of all creation is seen to be contained within the fullness of the self.

May we answer you further, my sister?

Carla: No, I really liked that answer. Thank you very much.

I am Latwii. We are pleased to have packed an answer in our briefcase which has pleased you. May we attempt another query at this time?

K: Yes, Latwii. As we attempt to know the higher self or the inner self, and as hunches and intuitions come, it’s been my experience that if I follow them, I make the right choices. Is it true that the inner self or the higher self is capable of directing our lives in every respect if we are aware of the, well, let’s just say hunches or whatever we want to call it?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my sister. This is one means whereby what you have called the higher self may, indeed, aid in guiding the individual that is your waking self through the illusion of the lessons you have chosen. It is also possible that other portions of the self take part in this activity. Also to be included as a source of those intuitive hunches and flashes which occasionally illumine the mind is the concept of the guides or guardians which watch the progress of each within your illusion. When you feel an intuitive feeling, you are being spoken to by a greater or deeper portion of your own being. Whether this portion is that known as your higher self, your own unconscious programming, guides, or guardians, or friends of Light is of little concern for the moment. What is to be noted is the impulse towards action or thought. To listen to such is, indeed, quite efficacious in traveling that path you have chosen, but it must be remembered that you cannot make mistakes. And to not listen to such an impulse will simply mean that you shall reach your destination eventually by another means.

You may see the balancing of the intellectual and analytical abilities of your mind with the intuitive information from your subconscious mind as that which is most helpful in accelerating your evolution of mind, body, and spirit, for with the analytical abilities of your conscious mind, you are able to chart the path which you shall travel. By listening to those intuitive impulses which spring from some portion of your subconscious mind, then is your conscious mind informed as to larger parameters within which it might have its sway. Thus, the two portions of your mind operating in balance provide you with the means by which you are able to move upon your path of evolution within your illusion.

K asked: “Is it true that the inner self or the higher self is capable of directing our lives in every respect if we are aware of the, well, let’s just say hunches or whatever we want to call it?” Latwii began by saying this is one means whereby the higher self may aid in guiding your waking self through the illusion of the lessons you have chosen, and it is possible that other portions of your self take part in this activity, and also to be included as a source of those intuitive hunches which illumine the mind is the concept of the guides which watch the progress of each within your illusion, so when you feel an intuitive feeling, you are being spoken to by a deeper portion of your being, but whether this portion is your higher self, your unconscious programming, guides, or friends of Light is of little concern for the moment, but what is to be noted is the impulse towards action or thought, for to listen to such is helpful in traveling that path you have chosen, but it must be remembered that you cannot make mistakes, and to not listen to such an impulse will mean that you shall reach your destination by another means. Latwii went on to say you may see the balancing of the intellectual and analytical abilities of your mind with the intuitive information from your subconscious mind as that which is helpful in accelerating your evolution of mind, body, and spirit, for with the analytical abilities of your conscious mind, you are able to chart the path which you shall travel, and by listening to your intuitive impulses which spring from some portion of your subconscious mind, then is your conscious mind informed as to larger parameters within which it might have its sway, for the two portions of your mind operating in balance provide you with the means by which you are able to move upon your path of evolution within your illusion. On March 7, 1992, Latwii described the value of our intuitive hunches:

Each entity upon this planet does call for some type of assistance, whether it is consciously recognized and verbalized, or whether it be subconsciously expressed; each calling is answered. The degree of desire, the conscious seeking and strengthening of this desire is that key which shall determine how the call is answered. Many calls, shall we say, are answered in sleep and dreams, providing inspiration and answers to problems. Many calls are answered by intuitive hunches or inspirations of the moment which seem to occur and appear out of the blue, shall we say.

This is one means whereby what you have called the higher self may, indeed, aid in guiding the individual that is your waking self through the illusion of the lessons you have chosen. It is also possible that other portions of the self take part in this activity. Also to be included as a source of those intuitive hunches and flashes which occasionally illumine the mind is the concept of the guides or guardians which watch the progress of each within your illusion. When you feel an intuitive feeling, you are being spoken to by a greater or deeper portion of your own being. Whether this portion is that known as your higher self, your own unconscious programming, guides, or guardians, or friends of Light is of little concern for the moment. What is to be noted is the impulse towards action or thought. To listen to such is, indeed, quite efficacious in traveling that path you have chosen, but it must be remembered that you cannot make mistakes. And to not listen to such an impulse will simply mean that you shall reach your destination eventually by another means.

Latwii continued by saying this is one means whereby the higher self may aid in guiding the individual that is your waking self through the illusion of the lessons you have chosen, and it is possible that other portions of the self take part in this activity, and also to be included as a source of those intuitive hunches which illumine the mind is the concept of the guides which watch the progress of each within your illusion, so when you feel an intuitive feeling, you are being spoken to by a deeper portion of your own being, but whether this portion is your higher self, your unconscious programming, guides, or friends of Light is of little concern for the moment, for what is to be noted is the impulse towards action because to listen to such is helpful in traveling that path you have chosen, but it must be remembered that you cannot make mistakes, and to not listen to such an impulse will mean that you shall reach your destination by another means. On April 18, 2006, Q’uo spoke about the nature of our higher self:

In terms of the experience of discovering more about your soul stream’s history, it is not the activity of higher beings, precisely, that is involved. If it happens organically and spontaneously, it is the action of your higher self, which in concert with that portion of your consciousness that exists between incarnations is responding to the conditions of your being as you meet the present moment. There are times in your life when you become aware of an entirely new level of the self, and it is often at such times that your higher self is particularly active in responding to your needs because a great deal is happening at such times. These are usually times when you have been through a dark night of the soul, and as you come to the dawning that lights up your life at the end of such a difficult period, many epiphanies and realizations may hit you like waves coming in from the ocean. It is at those times that spontaneous, new information about your larger self and its history may come to you. Otherwise, what you learn about your soul stream’s history is likely to be because of your focus, your will, and your desire.

May we answer you further, my sister?

K: No, thank you. That answered it quite well. Thank you.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister. Is there another query at this time?

A: Yes, Latwii. I was wondering what the significance was or what the reason was for when people—when they are praying—put their hands together, as in the statues of the praying hands. Why do people do that?

I am Latwii. We find that the answer to this query for most entities is simply to do that which has been taught them, but the answer which we see you seek runs deeper than this. The foundation for each ritual which the cultures of your planet have created, rests within some symbolic representation of unity, for it is unity which underlies each religion and philosophy, and unity which each religion and philosophy, to some extent, distorts. To join the hands is to join the seemingly separate portions of the self together in a symbolic action which exemplifies the unification of the being—the right and the left, the positive and the negative, that which knows with that which does not know, that which seeks with that which gives. The descriptions we have given are various means of looking at the individualized entity which seeks in prayer to know some portion of unity. To join the portions of the self known as the hands, which in your illusion seek many things, is the symbolic function which shows the entity seeks unity, seeks to make whole that which seems broken, seeks for the healing of that which seems diseased, seeks for the knowledge to fill the void of unknowing within the self.

May we answer you further, my sister?

A: No, that was most helpful. Thank you.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister. Is there another query at this time?

[Pause]

I am Latwii. We find this evening an early end to those queries which may be answered in our humble attempts to be of service. We thank each present for asking for our humble service once again. In your meditations, my friends, please feel always free to ask our presence there as well. We shall leave this group at this time, as always, rejoicing in the Love and in the Light of the one Creator. We are known to you as those of Latwii. Peace and blessings be with each. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning the quote from The Art of Meditation is: “In the contemplation of God’s universe, the mind is centered in God. As we quietly, gently, and peacefully observe God in action on Earth as It is in heaven, we are witnessing the glory of God. Practicing this form of meditation or contemplation, day in and day out, will bring us to a state of consciousness where discursive thought slows down and finally stops. One of these days, as we are engaged in this spiritual activity of watching God at work, a second of silence will occur in which there is not thought of any kind. In that split second, the activity or presence of God will make Itself known to us. From that moment on, we know that God is closer than breathing, nearer than hands and feet, and that the kingdom of God is within us. Out of the void and darkness, out of the stillness of our consciousness the Spirit of God moves to create for us our world of form:

I have come to this quiet hour to contemplate God and the things of God. Every blessing upon this Earth is an emanation or an expression of God and God’s law: the sun that warms the us and the rain that feeds our plants and trees. The stars, the tides, and the moon all fulfill functions of God and yet appear as blessings to humanity. It could have been no accident that God hung the sun up in the sky, millions of miles away from the Earth, just far enough away to give us the proper amount of warmth and the right amount of coolness. God really is the intelligence of this universe, an intelligence fully of Love and Wisdom. The sun, the moon, and the stars move in their respective orbits according to a divine plan that makes the moon and stars visible at night and gives us the Light of the sun by day.

God is the source of all that is. God’s Love is made evident in the fact that before humanity appeared on Earth, everything here was necessary for humanity’s development, for its growth and welfare. Even the minerals in the Earth were given for humanity’s use. The processes of nature that formed the iron, the oil, the gold, the uranium: all of these processes are of God. God must have known millions of years ago that these minerals would be necessary in the present age of industrialization and automation, because that long ago they were taking form in the ground. Millions of years ago God must have foreseen the billions of people who would inhabit the Earth, because God created fertile ground on which would grow trees, and shrubs, flowers, fruits, and vegetables.

This afternoon I was once again honored to co-host the European Law of One Study Group. Today I read Session #59 of the Ra Contact which contained a lot of information about the Great Pyramid at Giza, and I made occasional commentary about Ra’s information on how this pyramid works to focus the upward spiraling Light. After I finished reading the session some of the questions that I was asked included: “Where to place a small pyramid to get the value of the third spiral of the pyramid?” “The use of the Resonating Chamber under the Great Pyramid at Giza?” “The nature of Near Death Experiences?” and “Did I change the angle to 20 degrees east of north of the pyramid that I built in the yard outside of the home Don, Carla, and I lived in during the Ra contact?”

I would like to let everyone know that I have taken down the plexiglass shield around my Arrowhead Vine because I noticed that two days after I had put it up there were about 25 small leaves that had died. I can only assume that this was caused by a lack of air circulation. Since I have taken the plexiglass shield down, Mystical Joy, my new little kitten, who climbed the Arrowhead Vine and brought many of the vines down on the three bamboo rods that support all of the vines, has not shown any interest in climbing the vines again.  The first time she climbed them I was putting another very long vine on a hook on the ceiling of my living room. If I ever need to do that again, I will be sure that she is in my bedroom.

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

February 4

The Tides Of The Spirit

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

How deeply below the ground of sensation, feeling, and thought run the tides of the Spirit within each individual! If you wonder at the seemingly random turns and twists of daily life, the answers that deny randomness and proclaim the harmony of the great Deity’s plan lie far too deep for discovery.

Like a great underground sea, the Spirit makes all things new and guides circumstance in order that the fullness of experience may provide the opportunity for divine change. Thus, when you ask for the Comforter of the Spirit of Jesus the Christ to come upon you, know that the more intense your asking, the greater your opportunity for renewal and change. For you may be created anew at any time that you truly wish it.

With Love of such power, peace may not seem possible, yet this power is harmonious, and, whatever the appearances, its outworking lies in perfect peace.

And in this peace that is strife to the world, we leave you, now and ever.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of Love and open our hearts minds, and souls to send Love, Light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite Love, Light, and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our Love, Light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn, Latwii, and Oxal channelings for this session come from January 16, 1983:

M channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am now with this instrument, and we greet you in the Love and Light of the infinite Creator. It may seem this instrument is talking about something that happened this evening, but she isn’t. What happened this evening she thinks is funny, but the topic she is going to talk about is anger. One of your members asked about anger at your meeting, and I would like to discuss it. There are many types of angers. Sometimes it is very good. In an emergency, if you need to protect yourself, anger is very helpful. Even in an emergency when you have to do something. If you expect company and you have to get ready, then knowing the company coming at the last minute sometimes gives you the energy to accomplish what you need to accomplish. But I would like to talk a little about another type of anger. Some people build tension within them, but yet the anger is not productive. Sometimes it is the release of tension. If one is angry about insignificant things oftentimes it is really a form of letting off steam, and this can be very dangerous. If you can filter this tension through another entity, you can distill some of this tension. There are other people that can be helpful, your so-called religious priests and preachers, rabbis. You even have people, counselors who help release tension. You even have marriage counselors that release tension. Some very wonderful people are not able to accomplish their desires because of this inner tension and they should make some effort to get relief.

There are many types of anger. Sometimes it is caused by sickness. Sometimes it is caused because you’re tired. Sometimes it is caused because you are trying to control your other selves. There are many forms of anger, and I hope some of these may be applicable to your discussion of anger.

I am Hatonn. I leave this instrument.

(C channeling)

I am Hatonn, and am now with this instrument. We greet you again in the Love and Light. Friends, in your day-to-day lives you each face many varying situations from moment to moment. Each is in itself a lesson, one that is designed to aid you in your journey through this illusion. Each lesson will be taken and learned from or put aside, ignored. But you cannot ignore them for long. In each entity’s incarnation, those lessons ignored shall make the cycle and return, strengthened anew, tougher than before. Your people as they grow stronger may be able to handle the tougher lessons, but there are those who find that the tougher lessons begin to bury them.

These times, my friends, many are the individuals who swing on the pendulum of emotion. Some may withdraw deep within themselves. They may experience what you call depressions, the uselessness in their inabilities that they perceive. Some may choose to vent their frustrations and inabilities in an angry rage, taking out their perceived inabilities on others and themselves. My friends, your emotions are indeed an extremely useful tool you have in your growth, but as they are useful, so may they harm. When either extreme of emotion is reached, that entity suffers. The entities around him or her may also suffer. They can mislead and block growth. Each in their illusion will experience the swing of the pendulum, but the pendulum need not stick on either. Acceptance of each of life’s situations as lessons will aid each in finding a more useful path through the lessons of this experience. We of Hatonn wish to say again that at any time you feel the need, we will be with you when you ask us to aid you in your meditations in times that are good for you and those that seem too much. My friends, take each moment for what it is worth. Learn from it.

I am Hatonn, and would at this time transfer this contact.

(L channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am now with this instrument. My friends, the illusion within which you exist is a complex one. The tools which you must master to attain the development you seek are tools of unique intricacy and require an apprenticeship far beyond that of the various trade—correction—trades which many within your illusion seek to learn as a method of employment. For the tools of the physical realm, being instruments for the manipulation of that which is already created, have both form and function that remain relatively constant within your illusion. The tools with which your real lessons are experienced, however, are of a more ethereal nature in that each situation, each lesson that you encounter requires that the scholar perceive the lesson and, as a master craftsman, carefully forge and hone those tools with which one seeks to acquire attainment.

The emotions that you experience within your illusion are a small portion of the vast supply of such tools available to those who seek. They may, indeed, be likened to a set of chisels or punches that are uniquely appropriate each in its own manner for a specific opportunity. The emotion—anger, for example—may be likened to a broad cold chisel which may be used in conjunction with the hammering of one’s personal will or intention to produce a seam or opening within the illusion of an other self in perceiving beyond the particular illusion which they have established at a given time. Obviously the appropriate tool for a specific task is the—correction—is determined only through meditation and careful selection. For the self who desires to employ such a tool must first acquire the mastery of the tools lest in its usage damage be the result. The mastery of one’s emotions, therefore, is recommended for those who would seek the path of service to others. For the carpenter cannot accomplish his constructive tasks if he is at the beck and call of the various tools which he supposedly employs.

My friends, the analogies we use are often difficult to apply when one seeks to extend their meaning beyond that which is verbally expressed by the instruments who serve us so well because of the difficulty in translating our concepts into the symbols you refer to as speech. Yet, my friends, the translation and the illumination which may be sought as one meditates upon our feeble efforts at analogy may be found within the purity of one’s own heart. For it is through Love of one’s other selves your selfless acts are motivated, and it is through this motivation, this desire to serve, that the Creator extends Its touch to Its own tools, Its children who desire to serve.

My friends, the nail which binds the boards together is a tool which serves. So, also is the hammer which drives the nail and the hand which swings the hammer. The chain of service extends in an unbroken line to the original creative Force. Therefore, my friends, be aware that when one acts in accordance with this creative force, one may be assured of the correctness of one’s efforts toward service through the peace one experiences as a tool properly in service.

At this time we will relinquish our use of this instrument that our brothers and sisters of Laitos may perform their service of extending their vibration to those who would deepen their meditative state. I am known to you as Hatonn.

(L channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am again with this instrument. At this time, my brothers and sisters, we will be of most service by bidding you farewell that our brothers and sisters of Latwii might perform their own special act of service for those present. Adonai, my brothers and sisters. I am known to you as Hatonn.

(L channeling)

I am Latwii, and I greet you all in the Love and Light of the infinite Creator, and would like to express our appreciation at being invited to be of service to those present in our small way. At this time are there any questions that we might attempt to answer?

Carla: Latwii, when Nona comes through and begins a healing by the vibrations that are given, does that continue then until the situation is finished in accordance with the will of the Creator?

I am Latwii. My sister, first it is necessary to understand that the will of the Creator within a specific instance of healing versus non-healing resides largely in the will of the individual who is subjected to the healing force. If the individual desires healing and is receptive to a continuation, the vibration is encouraged and one might say that the entity, whether consciously or not, makes the Nona vibration a part of the individual entity’s own vibration, in effect attempting to adopt that vibration so as to maintain the healing force. However, if the entity is resistant to changing the condition which created the physical imbalance, we are without doubt that our brothers and sisters of Nona would be reluctant to force the issue, so to speak.

May we answer you further?

Carla: No, I knew that. I was just testing you, Latwii.

I am Latwii, and, my sister, we are grateful for the opportunity to pass the test. However, we might suggest that a more rigid test be applied in that we are to some extent possessed of the answer book to the test which you apply.

May we answer you further?

Carla: No, thank you, Latwii.

Latwii: Is there another question?

M: Latwii, if we have no more questions could we get Hatonn back?

I am Latwii. My sister, we would hazard the assumption that our brothers and sisters of Hatonn rarely leave the presence of those here. We are aware that our brothers and sisters of Hatonn have no pressing desire to communicate another of their ponderous lectures. However, they are always within earshot, so to speak, of those who seek their vibrations or guidance.

May we answer you further?

M: Does that mean Hatonn will come back?

Carla: Yes or no, L?

I am Latwii. My sister, we ask that you bear with us in that it is our desire to communicate accurately specific information. Our brothers and sisters of Hatonn are present at this moment. Our brothers and sisters of Hatonn, further, have nothing which they desire to communicate to this group at this particular moment. However, our brothers and sisters of Hatonn are always listening should one desire to communicate to them. If it is your desire to communicate a message to our brothers and sisters of Hatonn at this moment, we most earnestly assure you they are indeed listening.

May we answer you further?

M: I felt they wanted to speak through some of these instruments that were cut off. K, for instance. I have a feeling that Hatonn wanted to speak through K, S—different ones of them. Nobody has any questions for Latwii.

I am Latwii. We are increasingly aware there are no further questions, and will bid our friends adieu momentarily and vacate the stage, so to speak, that our brothers and sisters of Hatonn may return to offer whatever extemporaneous comments they might elect to verbalize through whichever instruments indicate a strong desire to act in service in this manner for our brothers and sisters of Hatonn. Therefore, at this time, we shall return whence we came.

K: I really have nothing else to add.

(Carla channeling)

I am Oxal. I greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator, a glorious central sun of the creation and all that therefrom has sprung, an endless and infinite beauty and Love. As Light we are drawn to Light, and we come to this group. We thank you for requesting our presence. Before we would begin, we would address two minor subjects which may be of aid to two of those now physically present. Firstly to the one known as M. The intention of any meeting of like-minded seekers is guided and formed by the desires of those present. That you felt a presence was certain. However, my sister, as you become more proficient in your tuning and your awareness of the varying presences, it is well to question each spirit and challenge each, and after assuring yourself of the Christ consciousness within each, discover then the called name of each spirit. We use this term advisedly, for there are great differences between those spirits of inner planes and those of what may be called outer plane, the difference being the difference between an individual often of great Wisdom, Love, Light and knowledge, and a group, often vast, of individuals so like-minded that the group speaks with one name. We would suggest that in the context of challenging and determining each entity’s identity, the concept of challenging the spirit be retained in full as it is as useful when dealing with societal complexes as it is when dealing with the denizens and masters of the inner planes.

Therefore, you were, indeed, sensitive enough to abstract from the noise of the metaphysical universe a signal. However, it was not that of Hatonn. Also, we would suggest that not all instruments must needs speak at each meeting. The needs of the group are served by the extremely fortunate circumstance of this group wherein the ability to serve as vocal instrument is widely cultivated among its members. Each piece of information, each emotional shading of Wisdom or Love has its own best instrument or instruments. Therefore, the picking and the choosing of the instruments is a great…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Carla channeling)

…as well as the one known as A. We are not an easy channel, shall we say, to successively interpret. The narrowness of the band causes the fading away of the signal if the instrument is somewhat shy of the tuning necessary.

The second note is to the one known as R, who we greet and welcome to this group this evening. Due to this particular instrument’s previous training, there is some slight possibility that a trance state might be that which overtakes the instrument without the desire being present for [inaudible]. This is at all cost to be discouraged, and it is suggested that the entity consciously close some of the receptive nature gained in the training in order that all may be clean, clear, and simple within so that the vibrations which are within this dwelling have only positive and life-enhancing effects upon those sensitive to the vibrations and used to disciplines which sometimes, shall we say, branch off from the discipline of this endeavor which all of the circle seeks to continue this evening.

We would speak but briefly now through this instrument as the meeting grows somewhat long. However, there is a call for information which we are extremely grateful to have the opportunity to share. As we heed those words which have been spoken by our brothers and sisters of Hatonn, and Latwii, and Laitos, and as we observe the patterns of energy within this dwelling, we are aware that when speaking of the removal of the emotional distortion so that one may be of service to another, one may not expect of oneself the direct removal of anger by placing the angry self in meditation. This may seem, as this instrument would say, as the Catch-22. An angry self needs meditation, but cannot find it. A meditative self is not angry.

Therefore, we suggest the angry self step back from the entire observation of self, not in meditation, but prior to any attempt at alteration of the situation at meeting the catalyst at hand. This instrument, in her human opinion, would concentrate upon the role of other selves in aiding one who is angry and has experienced the joy of being of seeming aid when offering the peaceful self to the angered other self. However, may we suggest to you that our opinion differs. The only alterations that will remain part of the garment of the self are those alterations made within the self for the self. And in this context, we would remind you of a phrase from your holy work known as the Bible. The phrase is, “O pray for the peace of Jerusalem. They shall prosper that love thee.”

In this session Hatonn spoke about how we could work with our anger in order to be of better service to others. They began by saying we would speak briefly now through Carla as the meeting grows long, but there is a call for information which we are grateful to have the opportunity to share, and as we heed those words which have been spoken by our brothers and sisters of Hatonn, Latwii, and Laitos, and as we observe the patterns of energy within this dwelling, we are aware that when speaking of the removal of the emotional distortion so that one may be of service to another, one may not expect of oneself the direct removal of anger by placing the angry self in meditation, so this may seem, as Carla would say, as the Catch-22, for an angry self needs meditation, but cannot find it, for a meditative self is not angry. Hatonn went on to say we suggest the angry self step back from the entire observation of self, not in meditation, but prior to any attempt at alteration of the situation at meeting the catalyst at hand, so Carla would concentrate upon the role of other selves in aiding one who is angry and has experienced the joy of being of aid when offering the peaceful self to the angered other self, but we suggest that our opinion differs, for the only alterations that will remain part of the garment of the self are those alterations made within the self for the self, and we would remind you of a phrase from your Bible that is, “O pray for the peace of Jerusalem. They shall prosper that love thee.” On November 26, 2022, Q’uo spoke of how we can remove our anger:

In the general sense, there are no other factors other than the need for forgiveness and the removal of anger for the experience of what you call cancer. However, each person who has this quality of distortion may travel the path of forgiveness and anger in an unique way which would need to be discovered, so that the anger and forgiveness could be seen as the true means by which the cancer was acquired and then healed.

My friends, when an angry person looks at the self, what does he see? Almost inevitably because of the strength of your illusion, he sees an imperfect and mistaken self. But where in this consideration of self is the primal perception of the one original Thought? Where, my friends, is the Creator which is perfect and full of Light and Love? If you look at the interior of your heart as a great land full of mysterious places, cities, countrysides, caves and grottos and fantastic creatures, then you may see one portion which is completely unchangeable. All else may come and go and be permutated as you transform yourself. But your holy city, that portion of yourself that is of the Creator and has never left the Creator, resides within that great land of beingness which is yourself.

Swim the sea of consciousness until you come to your own Jerusalem, my angry ones, my discouraged ones, my despairing ones, my overjoyful ones, and find in sorrow and utter joy the peace of what is called in that phrase we have quoted, “Jerusalem.” This is your true and happy home. Anger cannot touch it nor sadness or despair nor mania. This is yours. This is you. And your awareness of this portion of yourself will lead you, guide you, succor you, and heal you until you can bring yourself to bear upon yourself, until you can go into meditation knowing that the one resource without which you cannot endure is yours. O pray for the peace of Jerusalem, your Jerusalem, each of you.

Then Hatonn said when an angry person looks at the self, what does he see? Hatonn said he sees an imperfect and mistaken self because of the strength of your illusion, but: “Where in this consideration of self is the primal perception of the one original Thought? Where is the Creator which is perfect and full of Light and Love?” Hatonn said if you look at the interior of your heart as a great land full of mysterious places, countrysides, caves, and fantastic creatures, then you may see one portion which is completely unchangeable, and all else may come and go and be permutated as you transform yourself, but your holy city, that portion of yourself that is of the Creator and has never left the Creator, resides within that great land of beingness which is yourself. Hatonn continued by saying swim in the sea of consciousness until you come to your own Jerusalem, my angry ones, my despairing ones, my over joyful ones, and find in sorrow and joy the peace of what is called in that phrase we have quoted, “Jerusalem,” for this is your true and happy home, and neither anger nor sadness can touch it, so this is yours, and this is you, and your awareness of this portion of yourself will guide you and heal you until you can bring yourself to bear upon yourself, until you can go into meditation knowing that the one resource without which you cannot endure is yours, so pray for the peace of Jerusalem, your Jerusalem, each of you. On October 30, 1987, Latwii described the nature of Jerusalem that lives within each of us:

We wish to aid by these thoughts in the positioning of the mind and heart towards, shall we say, the spiritual east. We wish to express the sanctity of that comfort which lies within, which has so often been externalized within your holy work, the Bible, as the holy city, Jerusalem. Realize that your physical beings are as the cave within which dwells the fragile and infinite spirit. And look upwards through the chink in the roof of the cave and see the blinding shafts of Light filling, nurturing, comforting, and informing the spirit within. May each of you become independent of the outer world, so that addictions end, excesses may be laid aside with more and more ease.

We would condition those instruments of whom we have spoken in order that we may briefly speak through each before leaving this most kind and gracious Light source. It is a great blessing to bathe ourselves in the circle of your Love. We would now transfer. I am Oxal.

(A channeling)

I am Oxal, and we greet this Light of your circle once again to speak a few words through this instrument so that she might become accustomed to our vibration. Indeed, it shall be brief, and you shall hear on [inaudible] message, and we shall now transfer and condition the other instruments. I am Oxal.

(Carla channeling)

I am Oxal. We thank each instrument which we have conditioned. We are attempting to make the one known as S more comfortable, and also the one known as A. We are most privileged to have been able to work with each instrument, and we shall be with you at any time which you may need our particular service. We cannot leave you, for we are part of the oneness. We cannot leave this density, for we wish to be of service. Each Light that shines in darkness is a great service. We encourage each to perceive the Light within and without each day. We shall leave this instrument, glorying in the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai, my friends. Adonai, adonai.

(C channeling)

I am Nona, and come once again to this group for there is indeed a great calling to aid those present and those here in spirit who wish to aid others with their physical and spiritual needs. We join with you in the sending of Love and Light.

[C channels beautiful chanting from Nona to the end of the meditation.]

This morning I took down the wall of plexiglass from around the Arrowhead Vine in my living room because I believe it is the reason that many of the smaller leaves began to die just two days after I put it up to keep my kitten, Mystical Joy, from climbing the Arrowhead Vine and bringing the vines down from their normal height. I think that the plexiglass was restricting the flow of air that was causing the small leaves to die first, but I might be wrong. If the leaves keep dying for the next few days, I will put the plexiglass back up.

This afternoon the quote from The Art of Meditation is: “Meditation is an experience, and inasmuch as this experience is an individual one, it can never be confined within the limits of any predetermined pattern. Meditate; pray; dwell in the secret place of the most High in quietness and in peace; and you will discover that the truth you are seeking already abides within you.

Christ, the great Light, is within you. Christ is the healer; Christ is the multiplier of loaves and fishes; Christ is that which supports, maintains, and sustains; but Christ is already within you. You will never find health, supply, or companionship by searching for them. These are embodied within you, and they will unfold from your within-ness, as you learn to commune with God. You can draw on your Christhood for anything, and it will flow out from you to the extent of your realization of this truth. You are self-complete in God. Christ is your true identity, and in Christ, you are fulfilled in all your completeness. In this self-completeness in God, there is only one thing for which to pray; there is only one thing needful—spiritual illumination. Knock, and the door will be opened to you. Ask for spiritual illumination, for the gift of the Spirit, and God will reveal Itself as fulfillment.

In moments of uplifted consciousness, the ensuing meditations unfolded from within, revealing the gifts of the Spirit. The meditations follow no established or prescribed pattern, but each one is an expression of the spiritual impulse flowing into form. They are not to be followed slavishly nor are they to be used as a formula. Their only purpose is to serve as an inspiration, so that you may glimpse the beauty and joy of this experience and be encouraged to undertake the discipline required to discover the unplumbed depths of your own within-ness and, in so doing, launch forth into deeper and ever deeper experiences of awareness.

Meditation is a continuous song of gratitude that God is Love, that God is here, and that God is now. It is resting in God’s bosom, holding and feeling the divine Presence. Rest in the contemplation of God’s Love and God’s Presence. Then you will be able to say: “My meditation shall be sweet: I will be glad in the Lord.”

Echoes Of Love

I am of the Spirit of Jesus Christ. I greet you in the full consciousness of that Love for which the remainder of the creation is but a synonym.

We gaze upon the palsied, frail, wandering thoughts of humankind with cheerfulness and Love, not with sadness and despair as do you who gaze upon your own thoughts with disappointment. For we know that your thoughts may wander in arid regions. Yet the more unprofitable you find your thinking becoming, the more rich becomes the potential for your turning from the unformed to the formed, from the uncreated to that which is full of grace and purpose.

Your infinite and Loving heart is not a machine, that you may produce an output according to your quota. But, rather, it is a sounding board by means of which the Spirit of Love may echo to the infinite reaches of the created universe.

Turn, therefore, from despair and free the echo chamber of your heart from all tense worries that, surprised by inspiration, it may reverberate in Love and peace.

I am of the Spirit of Christ, and I leave you in peace, now and ever.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of Love and open our hearts minds, and souls to send Love, Light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite Love, Light, and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our Love, Light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. The Hatonn and Latwii channelings for this session come from January 2, 1983:

(M channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I am now with this instrument. I greet you with the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. As this instrument likes philosophy, I would like to stress the point of one person. No one person goes down alone. The people who dislike him or the people who hate him feel justified in their feeling, and they go down too. The people who love him are diminished, and even casual acquaintances, people who only see him pass and never speak to him, have a less interesting environment. Part of them go down with him. And if a man goes up, he does not go up alone. People who dislike him or hate him cannot justify their opinions. His friends are inspired by him, and people who see him pass are enriched. No man is ever alone. Do not say, “Well, it was only one man,’’ because it is never only one man. I am Hatonn. I leave this instrument.

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I am now with this instrument, and we have for some time called, “Wait-a-while,” for this instrument always says “Wait a while” when we attempt to contact this instrument. However, we find that there is a request from each of the other instruments that this instrument be used for some of your time and so we shall use this instrument a little while. We greet you once again in the Love and in the Light of the infinite Creator. We wish you blessing, and glory, and peace. It has often been said among your peoples, “Wishes are not worthwhile. Wishing is not substantial.” And, my friends, it is this point of Love to which we would speak this evening.

What a great invisible web there is that contacts all that there is, but in your density especially what a great connection there is betwixt each entity upon your planet. The one known to you as Jesus suggested that if an entity fed, or visited, or aided another entity, even one which was looked upon as not important, the entity was feeding, or visiting, or aiding the Creator. That is your unity; that is your reality. You are one, my friends, because you are all the Creator, each shining in your unique facets like the jewel that you have made of yourself, yet each a portion of the whole that is the creation. How many times have you wished, and had it become so? We suggest to you, my friends, that the faculty of hope, of faith, of wishing, of dreaming, is one of the most powerful resources of your mind, and that it alerts your entire being so that what you call your future is designed again and again by each wish, each desire, in order that you may receive that for which you wish. In your illusion the connection between wishing and having is usually invisible, for in the illusion time walks with you like an unwieldy giant, distorting true relationships and making them appear unreal. However, the faculty of hope operates in what you may call time/space where there is no time as you know it, and the connection between hope and the desire fulfilled is quite plain.

Therefore, my friends, the first thing we would suggest that you do is be cautious and careful in your wishes, your hopes, and your desires, for you do inevitably set in motion those things which will occur in order that your hopes may be fulfilled. You shall not hope in vain, but if you hope without depth, without heart, then what you receive shall be shallow and unsatisfying. In this season upon your planet that you experience at this time, shall we say, your plant life has completed its hope. For each seed that lies within the deep and dark ground awaiting the biting frost is the hard shell of a living wish for life, for growth, for service. That is the second thing that we would suggest that you would consider in relation to wishing. When you wish, hope, desire or seek there shall in natural patterns occur a season of incubation. You have planted the seed, and you must now release that seeking to the hard frost of meditation and silence. In time, upon your planet, comes the spring and behold, the seed that has fallen in good ground blooms, and flourishes, and graces many by the richness of its flowering. So shall your desires come to you, bloom upon bloom, ramification upon ramification, until all is hundred-fold more than you could have wished.

In this session Hatonn wanted to speak about a portion of Love that says that wishes are not worthwhile. They began by saying what a great invisible web there is that contacts all that there is, but in your density what a connection there is between each entity upon your planet, and Jesus suggested that if an entity fed, or visited, or aided another entity, even one which was looked upon as not important, the entity was feeding, or visiting, or aiding the Creator, so that is your unity and reality, for you are one because you are all the Creator, each shining in your unique facets like the jewel that you have made of yourself, yet each a portion of the whole that is the creation, and we suggest to you that the faculty of faith is one of the most powerful resources of your mind, and that it alerts your entire being so that your future is designed by each desire in order that you may receive that for which you wish, but in your illusion the connection between wishing and having is usually invisible, for in the illusion time walks with you like an unwieldy giant, distorting true relationships and making them appear unreal so the faculty of faith operates in time/space where there is no time as you know it, and the connection between faith and the desire fulfilled is plain. Then Hatonn said the first thing we would suggest that you do is be careful in your desires, for you set in motion those things which will occur in order that your hopes may be fulfilled, but you shall not hope in vain, but if you hope without heart, then what you receive shall be unsatisfying, for in this season upon your planet that you experience at this time your plant life has completed its hope, and each seed that lies within the dark ground awaiting the biting frost is the hard shell of a living wish for life and service, and that is the second thing that we would suggest that you consider in relation to wishing, so when you seek there shall, in natural patterns, occur a season of incubation, for you have planted the seed, and you must now release that seeking to the hard frost of meditation, so in time, upon your planet, comes the spring, and the seed that has fallen in good ground blooms and graces many by the richness of its flowering, so shall your desires come to you, bloom upon bloom until all is a hundred-fold more than you could have wished. On September 28, 1991, Q’uo spoke of how our desires may come to us:

Again, we find ourselves in the position of not being able to give a specific response for the confusion which you express is that particular condition which is a product, or shall we say the precursor of the exercise of free will. We are aware of your confusion, we are aware of your concern, and we can only recommend that you follow that which you feel is most important to you at this time, whether or not it is that which has been recommended previously. Follow that which wells up within you as the greatest desire amongst all your desires. Follow it to its completion, observe again, choose again. Whatever wisdom has been shared with you previously will prove itself or not by your own experience.

This is the third thing we would suggest to you, that in many cases the seed that you have planted by desire, wishing, by hope blooms into a bloom that is not recognizable, for you as an entity will have been changed by that same silence. You will already have become transformed, and you will be seeking yet further. And when you find manifestations flowering about you, it may be most difficult to apprehend the personal nature of an impersonal event. And you say to yourself, can this be what I hoped for? Yes, my friends. Each thing that occurs is a flowering of what you hoped for. Each event has been incubated and has grown. Meanwhile, you yourself have grown beyond the person that you were when first you hoped.

We describe to you a difficult road, a sometimes confusing road, but it is the road of transformation, and it shall, as you continue to discipline your desires, your wishes, and your hopes for your future, begin to offer to you a great multitude of blessings, the flowering of many previous hopes and meditations. We ourselves hope to be of service to you. Our only purpose in speaking through instruments such as this one is that in some way we may aid you as you move through moonlit nights in your inner search, through the brightest noons in your outer search, through all conditions and all surprises. We are aware that each finds inspiration in a different manner. We can only hope that we can be of some small aid to each, for it is our way of learning and growing. As we are of service to you, so our hopes come into full power and our inspiration is a hundred-fold multiplied.

Then Hatonn said this is the third thing we would suggest to you, that in many cases the seed that you have planted by hope blooms into a bloom that is not recognizable, for you will have been changed by that same silence, and you will be seeking further, so when you find manifestations flowering about you, it may be difficult to apprehend the personal nature of an impersonal event, for each thing that occurs is a flowering of what you hoped for since each event has grown, and you have grown beyond the person that you were when first you hoped. Now Hatonn said we describe to you a confusing road, but it is the road of transformation, and it shall, as you continue to discipline your desires for your future, begin to offer you a multitude of blessings, the flowering of many previous hopes and meditations, and we hope to be of service to you, for our purpose in speaking through instruments such as Carla is that we may aid you as you move through moonlit nights in your inner search, through the brightest noon in your outer search, through all surprises, but we are aware that each finds inspiration in a different manner, so we hope that we can be of aid to each, for it is our way of growing, and as we are of service to you, so our hopes come into full power and our inspiration is a hundred-fold multiplied. On January 12, 2008, Q’uo spoke about the nature of transformation:

Transformation is a somewhat overused term among those who seek in the ways of spirit. Both your established religions and your alternative spiritual practices tend to speak of transformation, until it has almost become diminished, as a word, from having been overused.

In its roots, my friends, it means to change form, to cross over from one form to another. In a different word with the same root, transformation often follows an intake of information to form new mental and emotional formations, thus precipitating the deeper self into the need to accommodate new information. By information we do not simply mean that which is taken in through the process of reading books, attending seminars, or listening to inspired speakers. We speak of the whole intake process of a working, conscious, awakened spirit in incarnation on Planet Earth.

There is a tremendous amount of information which flows into the five senses and moves through the awareness and the thought processes of each entity, all things being grist for the mill. So, transformation is a move from one stage or phase of life to another. It almost has the connotation or the inference of being that of a shape shifter, where you actually change your spiritual or metaphysical shape.

We would at this time wish to transfer to the one known as K. I am Hatonn.

(K channeling)

I am Hatonn. This instrument has been caught by surprise because she was sitting here enjoying what has been spoken already. However, as this instrument looks back on the desires of many years, this instrument is able to see the validity of the statements that have been made, and we would suggest further that as each of us goes into the new year, we might ask ourselves the question: What do we wish the end of the year to be like, or what do we wish the next several years to be, as you think of time. Because, indeed, we are planting as literally for our future, as we call it, as we know it, as literally as we plant the seed in the ground in the springtime. It is obvious as one views the world in which we live that some seeds have not brought the best results. Therefore, we will simply leave you this evening with this thought planted firmly in your mind for consideration. It has been a great pleasure to be with you, as always, and we leave you rejoicing in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. I am Hatonn.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of our infinite Creator. It is our privilege once again to be asked to join our vibrations with those of this group. We thank you for requesting our presence. We hope that our desire to be of service by attempting answers to your queries will bear the fruit which will be useful in your journey. May we therefore ask at this time for the first query.

C: Yes, Latwii, could you enlighten me as to what is the emotion of anger?

I am Latwii. To begin, may we suggest, my brother, that if one investigates that emotion called anger carefully, one will discover that it is what you might call the other side of the coin which is Love. For if one attempts to Love, one attempts to give freely of the self to another. Yet upon your planet this concept finds few pure expressions. The concept of Love has become mixed, shall we say, with your concepts of trade and barter. Conditions have been put upon this concept so that when one gives of the self, gives of the feelings and the emotions of the heart of the being, quite often it is expected by such an one that the one receiving the Love must also in some like manner return it. Thus, the Love is not given freely. When this perception persists within the being of one loving—that return must be made, that return is not being made—there frequently begins the growth of that emotion which becomes the anger. This feeling of anger is a distortion of the Love which has not been reciprocated. The anger grows as the entity feels it has been, shall we say, shortchanged or betrayed. Thus, if you will look to the heart of anger you will find some distortion that will lead you to the heart of Love.

May we answer you further, my brother?

C: Yes. I’m asking these questions because I’m having an extremely difficult time at the present of dealing with anger, and earlier today I had a release of this emotion, and afterwards, looking backwards, I could not see myself during the release, and those around me, including my young baby, did not seem to even recognize me when I was in that state. Is there something else taking control when one’s frustrations are suddenly released?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my brother. Though it is possible that entities of an elemental or even a negative nature might utilize such instances to reinforce the concept of separation which anger demonstrates, it is most usually the case that just as the expression of Love in its pure form has been distorted and blocked, thus causing the anger, so also has the expression of anger been blocked for a portion of what you call time. This causes within the entity so blocking the anger a buildup which might be likened unto the iceberg, where only the tip is apparent and the small trigger is all that is necessary for the remainder to come to the fore, and for the entity expressing the anger that has been built up and blocked to appear as another entity. If this anger and its blockage, the Love and its blockage are examined, the entity will find within this situation the great opportunity for experiencing and expressing Love in its pure form. For when the anger finally comes boiling out, then the situation is such that it is most difficult to ignore further, and the reconciliation can begin and this path may then lead to the heart of Love.

May we answer you further, my brother?

C: Yes. I have an extremely difficult time dealing with frustrations as they occur and keep many things bottled tightly within me. It is very rare that I am able to open myself to others and release the anger before it gets to a point where I simply blow. I don’t ask for specifics, but would appreciate it if you would speak to me on how one might release one’s anger before it builds to a point where one blows.

I am Latwii. My brother, may we suggest that you observe the garden in the spring. As the seeds have been sown and sprout, so also sprout those seeds not intended, the weeds. And when this garden is ignored day after day, the weeds become strong in growth and begin to overtake the seeds that were intended to be the garden. As you move through your illusion, take time each day in your meditative state to examine the catalysts which you experienced each day. Where you find anger, it is not necessary that it be expressed towards the entity in your physical illusion for the catalyst to work and teach you the lesson that you desire. You may instead experience that anger within meditation, and allow that anger to build until it does overwhelm your senses as has occurred this day. Then see within your mind the balance to the anger. For but a moment visualize the unconditional Love. Then allow your inner senses to move from the overwhelming anger by their own energy towards the Love. Allow this to occur until you feel Love in the same proportion that you felt anger. Then see yourself as having two means for the Creator to know Itself within your being, and feel then the acceptance of yourself for yourself while expressing both anger and Love.

If you would look at your life and your lessons each day in this manner in meditation, you will be accomplishing the same as the gardener who pulls the weeds each day so that the fruit of the garden may have a chance for harvest.

May we answer you further, my brother?

C: No, thank you. You’ve been of great help to me.

I am Latwii. We are most grateful to you, my brother, for allowing us this service. May we ask for another query at this time?

M: I have one, and it’s about as unimportant as C’s was profound. And it’s really none of my business, but I would like to know, if you feel it’s proper, if you would tell me what kind of bodies you have in the fifth dimension, and what kind you had in the fourth dimension, and do you have two or more sexes? It’s really none of my business, so if you feel I shouldn’t know, you don’t have to answer me.

I am Latwii, and do not blush at such a query. We of Latwii inhabit the density of five. That is the density of Light, the seeking of Wisdom. In our particular density our progress upon the evolutionary path now allows us to become more closely aligned with that known as Light, for we desire and seek the Light. Therefore, we do not only know the Light, but we become it, which means that in relation to the physical we may shape our vehicle according to our desires.

Therefore, during those few experiences upon your planet where the appearance of a being of Light has been requested with the proper purity—and such occurrences have been recorded throughout your history—an entity of the fifth density may appear in whatever form is best understood by those so requesting the appearance. Most usually this form is like your own for obvious reasons. The entities inhabiting the density of Love, the fourth dimension, have a physical vehicle which corresponds to the physical vehicle which was the second-density ancestor or parent, shall we say, of your own vehicle, for example, having been derived from the higher ape family. The density of six, that is, of singleness, of unity, the balance between Love and Wisdom, may also form itself as it chooses, and each of these densities includes the concept of polarity so that the sexual union, in forms quite different from your own sexual union, may be experienced.

Beyond the density of unity there is no longer the need to recycle the physical vehicle. Therefore,  there is no…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and am again with this instrument. May we ask for another query at this time?

K: Yes, Latwii, and I’m going to have trouble putting my thoughts into words, but I’m going to take a stab at it. As I indicated here a time or two, I’ve spent my life trying to get some sense out of the meaning of life, and in my early days I couldn’t see very much sense to it. And it seems to me that since the early sixties a—literally a barrage of Light or information has been given to us. That at least life makes more sense to me, and the purpose for being on this planet has become clearer. Now, my first question is, am I alone, or is this just my assessment of what has happened over fifteen years, or has this happened generally to the people, say, in our country?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my sister. As the, as you have called it, graduation or harvest draws nigh, the seeking of the people of your planet becomes more and more intense due to there being in motion the activity which this group has become aware of as the seniority of incarnation by vibration. This is to say that those now incarnate on your planet are those whose previous incarnations have gleaned the lessons desired efficiently enough that they have the greatest chance to achieve the harvest with one remaining incarnation, or in some cases, two.

Therefore, as those with the greatest opportunity for harvest incarnate, the calling for the lessons of Love and assistance in learning them increases. These callings are answered in many ways. One manner of answer is the incarnation of those known to this group as wanderers in waves or in groups. This began in earnest with the birthing of the concept of freedom which was born at approximately the same time in its more intense form as was this country some two hundred years ago. There have been various events which have been prominent in allowing further waves or groups of wanderers to incarnate. The second of what you call world wars was most important in this regard, for the release of that energy known as nuclear was of such a profound nature that a great wave of wanderers incarnated at the cessation of that conflict. These wanderers then begin to reach what your people call their maturity during the period you referred to as the 1960s, and this flash of Light, shall we say, took many forms, yet it was felt around your planet.

May we respond further?

K: Yes. Has this flash of Light, so to speak, that I certainly am aware of—I’m sure that many others are also—has this occurred, say, in the third world and in Asia, or has it become more evident just in the western world, or say, in our country?

I am Latwii. My sister, we find that though your nation is quite unique in many respects, it being what has been referred to as the melting pot of your global populations, that it is not alone in experiencing the effects of this flash of Light, as we have called it. The entire planet has become aware of the more intense seeking for Love and Light and more aware of the response to this calling, this seeking. The response and awareness have not manifested in the same manner in each region of your planet. Many of the nations which you have described as the Third World nations have experienced much greater trauma. The traumas have taken the forms of wars, starvation, disease, and displacement of populations. Upon your planet these are seen as great tragedies. Yet, my friends, if you put yourself in the place of such an entity experiencing any of these phenomena you will find great opportunity for learning the lessons of Love in a very short period of what you call time.

May we answer you further, my sister?

K: No. I believe I understand what you’re saying. Right now that’s the only question I have.

I am Latwii. Is there another query at this time?

M: Yes, I would like to know, when a person is an alcoholic, do they choose to be that before they are born, or is it something that happens after they’re born?

I am Latwii. Before the incarnation the entity, often with the help of what you may call guides or angelic presences, sets out the lessons which it desires to learn in the incarnation which approaches. In some cases, it might be that a certain means of learning the lesson is set in motion. In many cases the entity will allow a variety of means to be held in reserve, shall we say. These various means of learning the lessons, which always relate to Love in your density, are then activated as necessary by the deeper portions of the unconscious mind, most usually the higher self, so that the entity might learn those lessons which it desired. The means of learning which you have referred to as alcoholism may be one of many set aside or put in reserve, shall we say, and activated only when other means have not proven efficient. In our previous response we noted the great efficiency of trauma in teaching the lessons of Love. For some entities the lessons must be more intense according to their own choices. For others the lessons may be learned in some areas with less of what you may call trauma.

May we answer you further, my sister?

M: Well, if they recover and give up alcoholism, is that necessarily an asset in their journey?

I am Latwii, and I am aware of your query, my sister. It cannot be said with certainty that the response to, in this case, alcoholism can be seen as efficient or less efficient. For one entity to continue in the state of the alcoholic might be the most efficient of continuing to learn the lessons of Love. For another entity, to refrain from that state of drinking and drunken being might be the most efficient way to learn the lesson of Love. It cannot be said with certainty how one particular entity best learns the lessons which it has set before it. Only after the incarnation when the review has been completed may the entity see the efficiency of the learning of the lessons.

May we answer you further, my sister?

M: Well, do some people then feel that their incarnation after they have reviewed it was not successful, and some people feel it was very successful if the degree is there of success?

I am Latwii. This, in general, my sister, is correct, for each of you moves within an illusion, within a forgetting. You move within darkness. Though your days are brightly lit, still, as you seek within your being for the truth, you seek in moonlight, for it is not clear to those who have forgotten that each is the Creator, and that such is the case. And as you move through your illusion you carry the small candle of your consciousness with you to dimly light your way. Only after your incarnation has been completed does the Love and Light of the one Creator which exists at the heart of your being shine clearly over the pages of your life so that you may then see the efficiency with which the lessons were learned and might then see the lessons which need the learning in the next incarnation.

May we answer you further, my sister?

M: No. I think that’s all I can take at this time.

 I am Latwii. We hope we have not given you indigestion.

M: Thank you, Latwii.

Latwii: We are most grateful to you, my sister. Is there another query at this time?

C: Yes. It concerns lessons and goes directly back to my questions earlier. There are times when usually on the basis of us going through them beforehand we can see where a lesson is being presented to another, and there are times when we tend to learn the lessons for the other instead of stepping back and letting them experience, learn for themselves. How does one know—what can one do to keep from interfering with another’s lesson even though one may really want to jump in there and do it for them?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my brother. May we first begin by saying that there are no mistakes within your learning. It is also to be noted that it is not possible to directly learn another’s lesson for that entity. What occurs in your daily round of activities is a natural progression of interaction which allows the opportunities to be presented to each entity to learn those lessons that are desired. You may feel that you interfere with another. Yet, if you observe the so-called interference, you will see the opportunity to learn a lesson being presented.

Do you wish in this instance to impose yourself upon another? If this is not your desire, how then do you balance the actual or supposed imposition? By removing the self. So, you see, what you might see in one instance as the interference with another’s learning is simply your own learning seen from another perspective. Whatever your experiences within your illusion, the opportunity to learn the lessons you desire is always available. You cannot make mistakes. You may learn more quickly or more slowly, more efficiently or less. Yet, always do you learn the lessons you desire and always are those about you offered the identical opportunity.

May we answer you further, my brother?

C: That’s a big help. It’s also a load off. This is a situation that seems to occur regularly, and I know that somewhere along the line a particular guide has a hand in it which I thank you for. But there are times when you refuse to give something, whether of yourself or material, and you immediately turn around and it’s taken from you in one form or another. And I’ve always found it’s a very awakening type of occurrence. A guy I will refer to as George, I’ve known him for a long time, seems to not let me get too astray with him. But is that a reciprocal action, is that a common occurrence when one really sort of blocks out a lesson?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my brother. In general, this is correct. As one refuses to give in certain areas, then one is, in truth, refusing to give to the self, for are not all one? To bring this point more clearly home, the entity often asks on the subconscious level to know more clearly the truth of this unity. In such cases there are those presences which you have described which aid the entity by seeing to it that a certain thing which has not been given suddenly disappears within the life of the one refusing its gift to another. This allows the entity to discover that the action of refusing to give to another is the self refusing to give to the self. For whatever action you experience in relation to another is most clearly seen as your relationship to yourself.

Therefore, as you Love others, the Love for the self grows. As you feel anger towards others, the anger for the self grows. This is the way of the creation, for the Creator must learn from Itself. And you are the Creator which learns from yourself, whether it be that self encased by your physical vehicle or any other self with which you come in contact.

May we answer you further, my brother?

C: No, thank you very much.

Latwii: We thank you. Is there another query at this time?

K: Yes. I have one more that seems appropriate just at this point. I don’t want to tire the instrument, so it need not be a complicated answer if the instrument is tiring. As I indicated, in the last two or three days I’ve been reading the book Eagle’s Nest, and one of the goals of the warrior, which I perceive as a disciple, is the detachment. And Buddha talked about detachment as being a goal to be desired. Would you say something about the meaning of detachment and how it applies to us?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my sister. Each of you, as we have said, moves within an illusion. The veil of forgetting is drawn so that it is not possible for a clear perception of the nature of your unity with all things to be known to you. Therefore, you learn through being attached, shall we say. You learn by desiring, by sowing the seeds of wishes. Do you then draw unto yourself those events to fulfill the wishes? By observing your response to such events, your emotions may be discovered to be positive or negative, and by achieving the balance within the self of each emotional response, the entity becomes what is called balanced or regularized according to the expression of each energy center or chakra. This then allows the entity to experience what various of your religious cultures have called the non-attached state of being. We might refer to this more clearly as a finely tuned type of compassion so that whatever catalyst the entity encounters, the entity is aware that it is seeing the Creator experiencing Itself. And the entity’s response is Love, compassion, and understanding. This is the balance which has been spoken of by the description of detachment.

K asked: “Buddha talked about detachment as being a goal to be desired. Would you say something about the meaning of detachment and how it applies to us?” Latwii replied by saying each of you moves within an illusion, and the veil of forgetting is drawn so that it is not possible for a clear perception of the nature of your unity with all things to be known to you, so you learn through being attached, and you learn by desiring, and by drawing unto yourself those events to fulfill the wishes, and by observing your response to such events, your emotions may be discovered to be positive or negative, and by achieving the balance within the self of each emotional response, the entity becomes what is called balanced according to the expression of each energy center or chakra, so this allows you to experience what is called the non-attached state of being, and we refer to this as a finely tuned type of compassion so that whatever catalyst the entity encounters, the entity is aware that it is seeing the Creator experiencing Itself, so the entity’s response is Love and understanding, and this is the balance which has been spoken of by the description of detachment. On October 25, 2008, Q’uo spoke of the nature of detachment:

The life of a religious recluse is designed to eliminate all possible distractions so that the seeker, the disciple, the student, may do nothing but wind the coil of the intensity of desire to know the Creator day after day and year after year. Nevertheless, there is no escape from humanhood within the bounds of flesh and blood, breath, and desire. The most humble and self-abandoned disciple shall still find itself desiring those things which shall bring comfort to the body, the mind, or the spirit.

The initiate does not stop being human. The initiate becomes transparent to its humanhood and is able to gaze upon the requests which the body or the mind may make to the self with a certain amount of detachment and a larger point of view which enables the disciple to act in a more skillful way than one who has not become initiated.

It does not remove the business of living from that disciple. That disciple still must find ways to imbue all of those necessary parts of being human with awareness, attention, and often ritual, which all are designed to keep the disciple in a good state of tuning.

May we answer you further, my sister?

K: No. I believe that’s okay for the moment. I’ll have to think about that. Thank you.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister. Is there another query at this time?

L: Yes, on this planet prior to the birth of Christ a religion on philosophy was founded by an entity named Zoroaster in Persia. This religious philosophy was fairly rapidly assimilated into Islam and no longer exists. What was the mission of the entity we call Zoroaster and what was his polarity?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my brother. As each entity on your planet attempts to do, this entity attempted to serve the one Creator by expressing its perception of how the path of evolution might most efficiently be traveled. The precepts and tenets which it put forth during its incarnation were basically of the positive nature, yet as with all such religions or mystic traditions the polarity was not pure. For it is, as we have said many times, an illusion within which you move, and you seek for the truth in moonlight. And in moonlight that which is true can be dimly revealed, yet that same moonlight can also deceive. The one you refer to had some distortions towards the negative which are apparent to those aware of the concept of polarity who take the time to study these teachings.

May we answer you further, my brother?

L: Yes, I’m interested in where this entity is now. Is he incarnate on this planet or working with anyone incarnate on this planet or some world altogether different?

I am Latwii. We find that this entity has continued its path of evolution upon this sphere and resides as a third-density entity continuing to learn the ways of Love.

May we answer you further, my brother?

L: So, I understand that as the entity is physically incarnate on this planet?

I am Latwii. This is correct. May we answer you further?

L: No, thank you.

I am Latwii. We thank you. Is there another query at this time?

K: Well, yes. Is his influence positive, or is it polarized now in the positive, or is he still mixed?

I am Latwii. Though this entity, as most upon your planet, continues the efforts towards positive polarization, there is, of course, the mixture, for within your density the lessons are seldom learned with complete efficiency.

May we answer you further, my sister?

K: No, thank you.

I am Latwii. We thank you. Is there another query at this time?

A: Yes, Latwii. Is there any underlying reason that certain third-density entities choose prior to incarnation to experience ongoing severe trauma for lessons rather than milder degrees or a specific length of time that might be traumatic? Do you understand what I’m asking?

I am Latwii, and we believe that we perceive the heart of your query. The amount of what is called trauma can be, and is in most cases, chosen by each entity previous to the incarnation according to the, shall we say, number or intensity of lessons the entity desires to learn. This may be likened unto the student taking many classes or many hours of credit which weigh heavily then upon the allotted span of time. The entity could take fewer lessons and experience less trauma, yet not learn the lessons which would allow graduation. Since what you call time grows short upon your sphere for the learning of the lessons within this great cycle, many entities therefore attempt great quantities of learning in a short period of what you call time. This brings the trauma, and the trauma offers the opportunity to learn Love.

May we answer you further, my sister?

A: No, thank you. You answered very well. Thank you.

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister. Is there another query at this time?

J: Yes. In the same way that hope and desire fulfill themselves in actuality, does fear outline the nature of the developing future? I mean, does what we fear come to pass also?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my sister. We may describe fear as a negative hope, which is to say that it too shall come to pass. For the balance of the desire of not experiencing is the desire to experience. Where you have fear on the conscious level it is often the case that the opposite, or the desire, is experienced upon the subconscious level. In such a situation the entity with fear shall draw unto itself that which it fears in some form so that it might balance that fear with the acceptance of what was feared. Since all is one, there is, in truth, no need to fear any thing, for all things are the Creator, and all things are the self as the Creator, thus fear also is a seed which allows this fruit to be born.

May we answer you further, my sister?

J: Yes, I have another question. Could you talk about right and left brain function and activity and how—and whether it is possible to consciously balance right and left brain activity?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my sister. Within most of your physical brains, there is the division between what might be seen as the active and receptive modes of perception. The left portion of most entities’ brains is that portion which is logical, rational, verbal, and moving in spatial fashions, able to analyze and utilize the words in a logical fashion. Within most entities’ right portion of the brain is the portion which may be seen as the receptive.

The right brain, therefore, may be seen as the intuitive, somewhat illogical, that which is musical or artistic, and for an entity to attempt the balancing or equal activation of these brain functions is the process of what we have previously called the use of catalyst or the balancing. To achieve this end, it is necessary only to observe the daily activities, the various distortions, biases, preferences and tendencies which are already in motion within the life stream. Then, in meditation, the entity might magnify such distortions or biases until they are overwhelming to the senses. Then by imaging for the moment the opposite, and allowing the natural progression of conscious movement to overwhelm the senses in the polar opposite, the entity experiences within the being the balancing of both tendencies and therefore brain functions as well. We would suggest to each entity so visualizing this process that the great unconscious which is the storehouse of each entity’s beingness might be seen as the analog to the right brain function of the intuitive senses. The conscious mind therefore is the analog to the left brain function.

J asked: “Could you talk about right and left brain function and activity and how—and whether it is possible to consciously balance right and left brain activity?” Latwii began by saying within most of your people’s physical brains, there is the division between what might be seen as the active and receptive modes of perception, so within most of your physical brains there is the division between what might be seen as the active and receptive modes of perception, so the left portion of most entities’ brains is that portion which is logical, rational, verbal, and moving in spatial fashions, able to analyze and utilize the words in a logical fashion, and within most entities’ right portion of the brain is the portion which may be seen as the receptive. Now Latwii said the right brain may be seen as the intuitive, that which is musical or artistic, and for an entity to attempt the equal activation of these brain functions is the process of what we have previously called the use of catalyst or the balancing, for to achieve this end it is necessary to observe the daily activities, the various distortions, and the biases which are already in motion within the life stream, and then in meditation the entity might magnify such distortions until they are overwhelming to the senses, so then by imaging for the moment the opposite, and allowing the natural progression of conscious movement to overwhelm the senses in the polar opposite, the entity experiences within the being the balancing of both tendencies and therefore brain functions as well, so we suggest to each entity so visualizing this process that the great unconscious which is the storehouse of each entity’s beingness might be seen as the analog to the right brain function of the intuitive senses, and the conscious mind is the analog to the left brain function. On April 26, 2008, Q’uo spoke of our left and right brain functions:

It can be thought of—and this is a shallow statement but helpful, perhaps—as a left brain/right brain difference, saying that the left brain has to do with living on the island and making good use of time within the box (logical) and the right brain (intuitive) then goes begging and does not have its needs fulfilled. It is not exercised. It lies dormant. Art, therefore, can take one out upon the water and lift that dormancy into activity. And suddenly the right brain is working. It feels very good. It makes the attendee or the appreciator of art feel as though they    are also creative. It is contagious.

May we answer you further, my sister?

J: I’m kind of mixed up on left and right, but I’ll straighten that out later. Could you talk just a little bit about the nature of ego?

I am Latwii…

[Side two of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and am once again with this instrument. To answer the last query, the instrument is suffering some fatigue, and if more queries are desired after another query or two, we would suggest the transfer of this contact.

To continue our response to the concept of the ego. We find that the great use and misuse of this term renders it quite ineffectual as a useful designation of any portion of the entity’s being. It is frequently seen as a portion of the self which must be removed, this perception associated with those of the Eastern religious philosophy. The ego is also seen by others, those described as the Scientologists and those who study the psyche of your peoples, as the self which acts, that is to say, the conscious being. Others see the ego as the, shall we say, show-off or arrogant portion of the self. This is a description which is common to the lay person of your culture. Therefore, the term itself has suffered such distortion that we cannot use it with efficiency in describing the activities or perceptions of your people.

May we answer you further, my sister?

J: Thank you, no. That is fine.

I am Latwii. We thank you. Through this instrument we may attempt one further query before transferring the contact.

Carla: Well, what would you call it, if there is an it? Ego, I mean. You just wiped it out, but there’s something there. Is there an undistorted way of putting it? Could you comment on that?

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister, for clarifying your query. We shall attempt a response by suggesting that the clearest perception of that known as the ego may be seen by observing portions of the system of energy centers which each possesses. The orange ray typifies the expression of the self in relation to the self and to another. The relationship of power of self over another is most significant here. In the yellow-ray energy center the expression of the self as a portion of a group which may express power over another group is significant in relationship to the nebulous term of “ego.” In the blue-ray energy center the concept of communication with other selves by the self is significant in describing a portion of the ego’s supposed function. This is not satisfactory as a means of describing that commonly referred to as the ego, yet is as close as we can come. But we feel we have fallen short by at least a country mile.

May we attempt a further response, my sister?

Carla: Only by my guessing that what you’re trying to say is, there is nothing intrinsically right or wrong with the conscious portion of the self in its relationships to others, but only in the misuse of power. Would you say that that’s sort of what you’re aiming at?

I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister, for your query and continued clarification. We would go one step further in suggesting not only is there nothing right or wrong, as you have called it, with the conscious self or ego, but there is nothing right or wrong in any aspect of your illusion, for all is one.

May we ask if this is sufficient response to your query?

Carla: You may. Thank you very much, Latwii. That’s just fine. I am Latwii. We thank you, my sister.

Carla: Why don’t you let this poor boy rest?

I am Latwii, and shall attempt that feat. If the one known as L would be agreeable, we would at this time attempt to transfer our contact. I am Latwii.

(L channeling)

I am Latwii. I am now with this instrument. We ask a moment’s grace to make ourselves at home, so to speak. I am Latwii, and I greet you in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator, and now that we have things a bit more shipshape, we are prepared to continue our efforts to respond to your queries. Are there any queries?

Carla: I’d like to ask first if this would be a good time to retune the group. It’s been over an hour and a half since we began, and I’m wondering if we should get up, and sit down, and retune?

I am Latwii. In examining the fluctuating state of attunement in the group, we are inclined to agree with the recommendation as presented, although we would be willing to continue in the present capacity if the reattunement process would overtax the patience of those who have developed itchy feet. We would suggest, therefore, that a brief recess of several minutes be allowed at this moment that the necessary flight to plumbing facilities be allowed as well as the opportunity to reinvigorate those areas of your physical vehicles which have had the bodily fluids compressed from their tissues for an extended period. If this is acceptable to those present, we would suggest that those not desiring to flee the room remain within its confines in the relative darkness now present.

K: I have a suggestion, Latwii. We might save time, if anybody wants. I have exhausted my poor little…

M: I have, too.

K: …poor little brain tonight. I have no more questions. And maybe we might save everybody—if there are no more questions, we might verbalize that.

I am Latwii. Are there any further questions?

[No further queries.]

I am Latwii. If there is a statement to be made, we shall pause.

Carla: I think you’re done.

I am Latwii. We think so, too.

K: We want to thank Latwii tonight. We’ve asked them a lot of questions. We’ve all got a lot to think about.

I am Latwii. My sister, as always, we are grateful for the opportunity to extend our meager efforts and learning to those brothers and sisters who desire to share what little we have to offer. And for these opportunities we are sincerely grateful. As there are no more questions and in that your queries and one instrument have been simultaneously exhausted, we shall take our leave as well. In the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator, my brothers and sisters…

[Tape ends.]

This morning the quote from The Art of Meditation is: “A few on the spiritual path achieve this stillness quickly and easily, but for most of us, the Way is long and difficult. It is not for any of us, however, to boast about the rapidity of our progress nor to decry its slowness but to pursue the way with steadfastness and unswerving purpose. Most of us have periods of gradual progression, punctuated by interludes of desolation when we feel that we have lost the way and are wandering in a maze of conflict and contradiction. Often, we find that, after these valley experiences, we go forward to new heights where unsuspected vistas spread out before us.

There are a few gifted individuals who, because of previous experiences, have been so well prepared that their way seems to be much easier than others’. The purity of consciousness which they have developed makes the ascent into spiritual consciousness a beautiful, gradual, and harmonious journey beset with very few problems.

For most of us, the path is up and down, but by the end of a year or two there is usually a feeling that we are a trace ahead of where we were the year before. The prerequisite for the hearing of the still small voice, for the actual experience of the Christ, is to prepare ourselves by study, meditation, and by mingling with others on the spiritual path. When we hear the still small voice within us, we have received God’s grace, and the purpose of meditation is being achieved.

We dare not be satisfied with anything less than the experience of God Itself. It is the pearl of great price. It is for each of us to decide how much time and effort will be given over to meditation: to determine whether we will spend a few spare minutes now and then or so arrange our lives as to permit prolonged periods of uninterrupted quiet in which to contact the inner Presence and Power. The years necessary to the study and practice of meditation are not years of sacrifice to the aspirant: rather are they years of devotion to that which is their goal in life. It requires patience, endurance, and determination, but if the realization of God is the motivating force in our life, what the world calls a sacrifice of time or effort is not a sacrifice but the most intense joy.”

This afternoon I went on an errand run with my first stop being at Feeder’s Supply where I bought some cat food and some bird seed. My second stop was at PNC Bank where I had some money transferred from my savings account to my checking account. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I dropped off two prescriptions to be refilled, and then I bought some Hagan Daas vanilla ice cream.

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

February 2

Every Flower Rejoices

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

Be it known to you that every flower that nods in the sunlight rejoices in Love; that every green leaf that shakes upon the bough lifts its voice in songs of praise to Love.

Know, too, that every cell of your body and every cell of your mind is full of the Love of the Father, full of the Christ, full of rejoicing.

It may seem to you that portions of your body or your mind have been cut off from the Love of God in Jesus Christ. Believe and know that this is in no case the final truth and press on in faith, holding the vision of Love in every cell, of rejoicing in every iota of the body and the mind. By this may the power of the Spirit of Love be called to you, be drawn upon you, and begin to heal you.

We leave you in the peace of Love, now and ever. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of Love and open our hearts minds, and souls to send Love, Light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite Love, Light, and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our Love, Light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.
