I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Q’uo channeling for this session comes from October 22, 1986:

(Carla channeling)

I am Q’uo, and I greet each of you in the Love and the Light of the one Creator. It is a great privilege to be speaking with you, and because of the nature of this channeling we would pause at this time to move in the stream of time, as you call it, and blend our vibrations with yours at this time, in order that we may empathize and blend our energies with your own, for we wish to speak not only inspiring words, but also words inspiring and needful to you. We shall pause at this time. I am Q’uo.

[Pause]

I am Q’uo and am again with this instrument. We are pleased to have shared in your life stream and shall speak at this time about those things which are upon your mind. Although many are the concerns which you have, perhaps the one you hold most in common is the desire to know more about meditation. Each of you has consciousness. That consciousness is greater than you may perhaps have perceived. You may associate consciousness with your ability to reason, analyze, and think. Many are the questions which yield to the excellent tool of your waking consciousness. Yet, let us gaze upon the frontiers of rational thought with care to examine the ultimate nature of the knowledge gained through reason. The rational mind is a calculator, and it calculates many things very well. Your race has built many gadgets, many beautiful and interesting artifacts, and yet, in all the complexity of the creation of humanity, there is no ultimate truth. All rational inquiry has ended thus far in mystery. Geniuses, as you call clear thinkers who are scientists, turn finally to appreciation, and even adoration, of the mystery which unifies all phenomena, never convinced that there is not an ultimate answer, but aware that it has not yet been found.

Consciousness is not only rational, and it is in using the rational mind alone, or the subconscious mind alone, that knowledge has become fragmented and incomplete. The mind functions with precision and elegance in the portion of your consciousness which most among your people shrug off as being that province of fools and dreamers—the subconscious or unconscious mind. And yet each of you well knows how many times you have known through intuition or hunch, because you saw it in a dream, or just knew it to be so, what would occur before it did. You have known when you would be visited or telephoned, what your friend or family would say to you. You have seen solutions that could not logically be arrived at. Without even intending to, you have used the deeper powers of your mind to simplify your life. You have managed your consciousness perhaps better than you think, yet there is far more improvement possible through meditation. Let each of us step back for a moment and look carefully at what we feel may be so about consciousness.

In this session Q’uo spoke about consciousness and the Love of the Creator. They began by saying we are pleased to have shared in your life stream and shall speak at this time about those things which are upon your mind, and although many are the concerns which you have, perhaps the one you hold most in common is the desire to know more about meditation, for each of you has consciousness that is greater than you may have perceived, so you may associate consciousness with your ability to think, but many are the questions which yield to the tool of your waking consciousness, yet let us gaze upon the frontiers of rational thought with care to examine the ultimate nature of the knowledge gained through reason, for the rational mind is a calculator, and it calculates many things very well, so your race has built many gadgets and artifacts, but in all the complexity of the creation of humanity, there is no ultimate truth, for all rational inquiry has ended thus far in mystery, for geniuses who are scientists, turn to appreciation of the mystery which unifies all phenomena, never convinced that there is not an ultimate answer, but aware that it has not yet been found. Q’uo continued by saying consciousness is not only rational, for it is in using the rational mind alone, or the subconscious mind alone, that knowledge has become fragmented, and the mind functions with precision in the portion of your consciousness which most among your people shrug off as being that province of dreamers: the subconscious or unconscious mind, yet each of you knows how many times you have known through intuition because you saw it in a dream, or just knew what would occur before it did, and you have known when you would be visited or telephoned, what your friend or family would say to you, and you have seen solutions that could not logically be arrived at, so without intending to, you have used the deeper powers of your mind to simplify your life, and you have managed your consciousness better than you think, yet there is more improvement possible through meditation, so let each of us step back for a moment and look carefully at what we feel may be so about consciousness. On November 9, 2019, Q’uo described the nature of consciousness:

The Law of One says simply that all things, all beings, all is One, One Infinite Creator, Intelligent Infinity, that which is all that is. Consciousness is a portion of the One Infinite Creator that becomes enabled, or created, when the universe begins to take shape as the One Infinite Creator and through free will creates the Logos or Love, which creates Light, which then condenses into the creation that is made of consciousness.

Thus, consciousness comes from the One Infinite Creator’s unity. As each entity perceives its own consciousness, then, it discovers that it is related to all other entities through this consciousness and through its various levels of consciousness within its own being that move through the roots of the tree of mind into the subconscious, into the planetary consciousness, into racial consciousness, into cosmic consciousness, into the consciousness of all that is, all that is created.

Thus, if each entity begins to examine its own consciousness, it discovers that it is as related to the One Infinite Creator as is any other entity or any other portion of the One Infinite Creation. Thus, to know the consciousness of the self is to know, in microcosm, that which is in macrocosm. Thus, the One Infinite Creator knows Itself in each iota of beingness of Its creation, and each iota of beingness of the creation knows Itself as the One Infinite Creator.

We suggest to you, my friends, that there is one consciousness, which in its original and undistorted form may be called Love. The consciousness of Love is the great original Thought, crystal clear and pure, and by its profound, generative nature, the Creator of all that there is. Thus, the consciousness that is your identity and nature is some distortion, one representation of that one great original Thought of Love which created all that there is. When the conscious mind of man is used without the aid of the deeper mind, very little of the consciousness of Love can be channeled through you from consciousness to manifestation. The person who lives in mind and not in heart lives a dry and arid life, unrelieved by the beauty of Love or the joy of passion, for, indeed, it is those with a passion and joy for knowing the truth, for celebrating friendship, and for seeking Love, that creates the full potential of consciousness for each of you.

When you move from the conscious mind into the deep mind, you are moving from busyness and noise, distraction and sleep, to a cool, clear pool of Light, silent, profound, and infinite. Infinity cannot be comprehended by the rational mind, for the mind calculates only the calculable, leaving mystery uncalculated. The deep mind is at home and comfortable in the endless sea of infinity, for in infinity it has its home, just as you have your home in infinity. You are an eternal essence, part of the Creator, and before your planet hung, round and beautiful in its orbit, you existed, complete and perfect. It is your birthright to experience infinity. Your conscious mind keeps you limited. In meditation, you enter the eternal, and as you allow your mind consciously to run down and become quiet, you tap in more and more to the great stream of Love and wisdom which runs underground, shall we say, in your consciousness.

Q’uo went on to say we suggest to you that there is one consciousness which, in its original form, may be called Love, and the consciousness of Love is the great original Thought, and it is the Creator of all that there is, so the consciousness that is your identity is some distortion of that one great original Thought of Love which created all that there is, for when the conscious mind is used without the aid of the deeper mind, very little of the consciousness of Love can be channeled through you from consciousness to manifestation, for the person who lives in mind and not in heart lives a dry life, unrelieved by the beauty of Love or the joy of passion, for it is those with a passion and joy for knowing the truth, and for seeking Love that creates the full potential of consciousness for each of you. Q’uo went on to say when you move from the conscious mind into the deep mind, you are moving from distraction and sleep, to a cool, clear pool of Light, silent and infinite, but infinity cannot be comprehended by the rational mind, for the mind calculates only the calculable, leaving mystery uncalculated, yet the deep mind is at home and comfortable in the endless sea of infinity, for in infinity it has its home, just as you have your home in infinity because you are an eternal essence, part of the Creator, and it is your birthright to experience infinity, but your conscious mind keeps you limited, so in meditation you enter the eternal, and as you allow your mind to become quiet you tap into the great stream of Love and Wisdom which runs underground in your consciousness. On March 25, 2007, Q’uo the endless sea of infinity:

What the feminine offers is the inspiration from spirit. That is the other portion of that male expression of strength, power, and virility. The woman is expressing acceptance, unconditional Love, and the energy of the Creator Itself. For you see, the woman, unlike man, is possessed of a direct route or connection to the womb of, shall we say, Mother Nature or the red-ray energy of planet Earth.

The woman has that sea of infinity and eternity flowing through her. She is much closer to her priestliness because she must tend to the circumstances of her menses monthly, and she feels the pull of the moon, the tides, and her passions in a way that, generally speaking, men are not encouraged to do in your culture.

Perhaps you feel that in some ways you are not worthy to meditate and to seek understanding, but we assure you that all entities make what could be called errors in judgment. We ask you always, as you go into meditation, to release your previous perceptions of yourself, your identity, your faults, and your weaknesses, focusing only on that which you desire—knowledge of the truth. In meditation you shall become more and more aware of the true nature of the creation. You shall begin to see the unity that binds all in the Thought that created all. If all whom you meet and all that you meet are Love, then what shall your perceptions be after meditation? The more you meditate, the more you will discover the expansion of your viewpoint, the increase in tolerance, in awareness, in understanding, for, my friends, the creation is far other than it may seem to those who view the incarnation, the lifetime, as all that there is.

To the one who has no hope of eternity, the consciousness of Love may come hard. However, we urge you to attempt to justify in any rational way the order of the magnificent and infinite universe without suggesting the unity of the creation under one Progenitor, one Creator, one Principle which creates all. And as for eternity itself, we leave it to your hearts to validate the truth of the nature of the universe. Turn then regularly—daily, if possible—from the endless wrangling, disputing, proving, and disproving of the conscious mind, long enough to swim in the sea of eternity, so that you may cleanse yourself of dailyness and emerge clear, clean, spotless, and perfect, resting in infinity, bathed in the Love and the Light of our infinite Creator. My friends, you are experiencing changes as it is, and the more you meditate, the more changes you will experience in addition to that which by nature is changing in your perceptions. The path of one who seeks through meditation and opening to infinity is not always an altogether easy one, although it is a joyful one. There is often little peace in perceiving more Love in situations than others perceive. Yet, may it be a joy to you, and may you always seek the truth.

Then Q’uo said perhaps you feel that you are not worthy to meditate and to seek understanding, but we assure you that all entities make errors in judgment, so we ask as you go into meditation, to release your perceptions of your faults, focusing only on knowledge of the truth, for in meditation you shall become aware of the true nature of the creation, and you shall begin to see the unity that binds all in the Thought of Love that created all, so the more you meditate, the more you will discover the increase in tolerance and in awareness, for the creation is other than it may seem to those who view the incarnation as all that there is. Q’uo concluded by saying to the one who has no hope of eternity, the consciousness of Love may come hard, but we urge you to attempt to justify the order of the infinite universe by suggesting the unity of the creation under one Creator which creates all, and as for eternity itself, we leave it to your hearts to validate the truth of the nature of the universe, so turn then daily from the proving and disproving of the conscious mind long enough to swim in the sea of eternity, so that you may cleanse yourself of dailyness and emerge clear and perfect, resting in infinity, bathed in the Love and the Light of our infinite Creator, for you are experiencing changes, and the more you meditate, the more changes you will experience in addition to that which by nature is changing in your perceptions because the path of one who seeks through meditation and opening to infinity is not always an altogether easy one, although it is a joyful one, but there is little peace in perceiving more Love in situations than others perceive, yet may it be a joy to you, and may you always seek the truth. On June 27, 1993, Q’uo spoke of the unity of the one creation:

When in the primeval unity of the creation the Creator chose through free will to express Itself the creation was articulated. The proper response to this Being has in your culture formed around itself a large number of ways and means which are deemed to be appropriate so that one gives one’s rightful response to a Creator which has chosen to manifest that which is the seeker. Each of these instructions seems wise and proper to some and inappropriate to others. Therefore, it would seem that there is no consensus as to what the Creator Itself might want from Its creation.

This seems to be the situation; however, the Creator, as we feel this mystery, is unworldly and incompletely grasped by us, and seems to us not to desire any response over other responses, but rather, the Creator acts and continues in action rather than reaction. The seeker wishing to address the infinite One in most cases is addressing a Logos, the Love manifest, or some expression of Love manifest, such as the higher self. To this higher self, still, no one mode of address is preferred precisely, rather the praise and thanksgiving are accepted without emotion.

We surround you with our Love, which is only that channeled from the Creator through us, for all things are the Creator, and the Creator is in all things. If we have said any words which do not seem to ring true, use your discrimination in removing and forgetting those things we have said which are not for you, for we make as many mistakes as any other friend. Yet, we are your brothers and sisters, and we hope that we have been able to assist you. Love each other, my friends. Care for each other, and experience the Creator in every face you meet. We are those of Q’uo in the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator. We do not ask you to take any note of our identification, for it matters not whether we are extraterrestrials, spirits, or voices on the wind. If our words have truth and meaning for you, that is all and more than we could hope to desire from this service we humbly offer. We would leave you now in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “If the Grace of God has touched us to the point where we cannot stop studying and meditating, then we are doing everything that can be done. We cannot hasten the day. We can delay it by ignoring this inner urge to meditate more and to read more, but we cannot hasten it. It comes in its own good time and its own good way.

A human being cannot do this alone, because to a human being the word of God is foolishness. They have no time for it, no patience with it, and sometimes it can even offend them. But if they are touched with just enough Grace to compel them to keep reading, hearing the Word, or meditating, then they will be led to their ultimate demonstration.

When we are in this Spirit, or when It is in us, consciously present, there are not two powers functioning. There is not one power doing something to another power; there is no power of God destroying evil, making evil people good, or overcoming lack with abundance.

When this Consciousness is upon us there are no other powers, and whatever seeming powers there are, are dissolved—not as if these were something being overcome, but as if they were a nothingness fading away

The world is to be saved by My Spirit, but this Spirit operates only through the consciousness of a person who opens the self to It. Therefore, it is our responsibility to become a spiritual rock upon which the harmony of our neighborhood, and community, and even our nation can rest.

We do not need any deep metaphysics: we need to understand the simple little truth that the still small Voice is the power that destroys the illusions of this world. That understanding does not consist of our having a power to do something to error: it consists of the truth that no power is needed to destroy error because error has within itself the elements of self-destruction. We bear witness to that as we stand and look at the unfruitful tree and watch as it withers. We do not wither it: its own barrenness withers it. So, error is dissolved as we sit in quietness and stillness, a witness to the divine Power, and watch as harmony descents upon all around us.

And so, step by step we are strengthened until the day comes when we realize that now we can rest at will in God and let that Spirit that flows through us, that Robe that envelops us, be the prayer, the benediction, and the healing in our community and to the world.

We become the light of the world as we bring ourselves to a state of consciousness in which we do not battle the errors of the world, but in which we become completely still and let the Spirit of God nullify and dissolve the pictures of sense. No longer will we struggle with error, but rest, relax, and be a witness to God functioning on Earth as in heaven. Above all, we will never forget that we are the twelve, the seventy, the two hundred: we are the light in our community. We are that one, even if there is not another, who will not succumb to the mesmerism of fear, doubt, hate, envy, jealousy, or malice. We are that one who will be a rock in our community, a rock of Silence, welling up within ourselves as peace, and letting that peace descend upon our communit

Later this morning I ran some errands with my first stop being at Kroeger’s where I bought some food for myself. My second stop was at Paul’s where I bought some more food for myself and the last Coleus Flower that I forgot yesterday. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug store where I bought some Kleenexes. After I got home, I went outside and transplanted the third Coleus into the area around the giant Sycamore Tree where I transplanted the other 5 Coleuses yesterday afternoon.

This afternoon I went outside, and I hand-weeded the Striped Solomon Seal Garden behind the garage, and then I used Whip Lash to weed the Caladium Garden behind the garage. Then I used Huff and Puff to blow all of the leaves and weeds across Little Locust Creek. I also used Huff and Puff to blow all of the weeds out of the Caladium Garden.

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

June 13

Increasing Your Joy

Greetings in the Love of Christ. We are of the consciousness of that Love, the Spirit of Christ in the vibration which comforts this child.

It is a characteristic of a life lived in faith that the quality of experience clarifies and improves when the faithful remind themselves continuously of the happy fidelity which has been chosen. Your Creator does not worship Itself. It turns in Its expression to a Love of you.

You, then, may turn from the Love of self also to express exultation in the excellence of Love, of the Love of the Creator and of the principles of Love that you have been given for Teacher, Comforter and Friend. In sharing joy, so you increase that joy. In opening to give praise, so you shall receive clarity and peace.

That peace I leave 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. Today the Q’uo channeling for this session comes from October 19, 1986:

(Carla channeling)

I am Q’uo. I greet you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator whom we serve as we serve you. Such, indeed, is our intent. We wish to thank you for requesting information which called our group, for it is a privilege to be able to attempt to be of service to you. If there is anything which we say that speaks not to you with the voice of inspiration, disregard it please, for we are as fallible as are you, and as little likely to penetrate the mystery of the uniqueness of each entity’s past. Take what is for you and leave the rest, my friends. Your powers of discrimination are one of your strongest tools.

When you request information on enlightenment and appropriate methods for attaining it, you are speaking of attaining a manifestation rather than an essence, for enlightenment can only be seen by its reflection. Just as Light itself is the creature and creation of Love, so also is enlightenment the creature and manifestation of the thought of Love which an entity has made their own. Let us turn then from the manifestation to the essence. How to achieve communion in the unity of consciousness and Love is perhaps the most basic magical question which could be asked. Magical in the sense that any entity which desires power, whether on the positive or negative path, must form a congruency of a kind with the original Thought of Love in order to create personal power. Each pilgrim which embarks upon the path of attempting to increase the pace of the spiritual journey…

We are sorry for the delay, but we are having difficulty with this instrument, due to its state of fatigue. While this instrument retunes, we would transfer to another instrument. I am Q’uo.

(Jim channeling)

I am Q’uo, and greet each of you again in Love and Light through this instrument. We are grateful to be able to utilize this instrument while the one known as Carla works upon receiving the conditioning vibration which we offer in a state which is more comfortable to her. We thank also the one known as Carla for offering herself as instrument on this occasion when her physical vehicle is quite depleted of energy, having expended a great deal of effort in this day’s activities prior to this evening’s gathering. We would at this time attempt to recontact the one known as Carla and continue our speaking upon the topic of the seeking of that which you call enlightenment. We transfer this contact at this time. I am Q’uo.

(Carla channeling)

I am Q’uo, and am again with this instrument, greeting each of you in Love and Light once more. We apologize for the haste in leaving this instrument in mid-thought. However, we became aware of its discomfort, and wished to give it a chance to—we find this instrument has a phrase—“shake up the troops.” This instrument wished to shake up its troops, it being on the edge of sleep. We have shaken up the troops and will once again embark upon the question about enlightenment which is actually more interesting than we make it sound, it being what you are all trying to do.

This is where we left off. So… each student of metaphysics is also a student of magic in the purest sense, not in the sense of enchantments, ointments, curses, and blessings, but in the sense of developing personal power. Enlightenment is the manifestation of focused power given a coherent shape, a degree of desire which one has towards the achieving of spiritual goals. The most basic tool for the achievement of a realization of a life lived in magic is meditation, for meditation introduces you to yourself. You may not like what you see. You may discover many, many, many thoughts, thoughts that do not stop, thoughts that do not seem important, thoughts that you do not control. You may find yourself ill-suited at first to meditation from a physical viewpoint, the body being perhaps not used to sitting completely still without falling asleep. And yet, if all you discover about yourself over and over is, as far as you know, that you are dissatisfied with your meditations, nevertheless the intent that sits you in a chair or on the floor or on the ground and puts you in the kingdom of silence is fulfilling completely its part in your development as a magical personality, for it is not only intent, but intent carried through with even and steadfast perseverance that creates personal power.

In this session Q’uo spoke about the concept of enlightenment. They began by saying when you request information on enlightenment and methods for attaining it, you are speaking of attaining a manifestation rather than an essence, for enlightenment can only be seen by its reflection, yet as Light is the creation of Love, so is enlightenment the manifestation of the thought of Love which an entity has made their own, but let us turn from the manifestation to the essence, and how to achieve communion in the unity of consciousness and Love is the most magical question which could be asked, yet magical in the sense that any entity which desires power, whether on the positive or negative path, must form a harmony with the original Thought of Love in order to create personal power. Then Q’uo said each student of metaphysics is also a student of magic in the purest sense, not in the sense of enchantments, ointments, curses, and blessings, but in the sense of developing personal power, for enlightenment is the manifestation of focused power given a coherent shape, a degree of desire which one has towards the achieving of spiritual goals, and the basic tool for the achievement of a realization of a life lived in magic is meditation, for meditation introduces you to yourself, but you may not like what you see because you may discover many, thoughts that do not stop, or thoughts that do not seem important, and thoughts that you do not control, and you may find yourself ill-suited to meditation from a physical viewpoint, your body being not used to sitting still without falling asleep, yet if all you discover about yourself is that you are dissatisfied with your meditations, nevertheless the intent that sits you in a chair and puts you in the kingdom of silence is fulfilling its part in your development as a magical personality, for it is not only intent, but intent carried through with even and steadfast perseverance that creates personal power. On May 17, 1987, Q’uo spoke of the nature of enlightenment:

As succeeding energy centers or circuit areas within the energy centers of the seeker are opened and balanced to a minimal degree through a great portion of time and experience, the prana or Love of the Creator will move further and further up the, as you have called it, path of the kundalini until there is the mating with the guiding Light or Polaris of the self, where the seeker is already at one with the creation, so that an experience of conscious unity with the creation becomes available to the seeker. This completing of the circuit of the series of energy centers has been described by many of your people using various terminology, the enlightenment, the contact with intelligent infinity, the nirvana, as some call it,

Thus, the seeker may be seen as a configuration of circuits or series of lessons and balances to achieve, with each day offering further opportunity to move the flow of Love further along the inner pathways that will eventually culminate in the bringing into harmonic resonance each portion of the seeker’s being.

As to personal power, there are many distortions of the magical personality, and those who seek enlightenment are for the most part seeking positively polarized distortions of that one great original Thought. That is, the path to enlightenment is considered, by those to whom service to others is a goal, to be the service-to-others path. May we say we find it to be the preferable one, but do not wish to influence your thinking beyond a certain point. Once you have meditated—frustratingly or pleasantly makes no difference—for long enough to perceive yourself differently than you did before you began to meditate, you will begin to experience outward changes in your perceptions. This is due to the fact that contact with the essence of Love, the one original Thought of the Creator, causes a continuing shift in the point of view. The method of evaluation of data becomes far more regularized and polarized towards valuing those things which are considered to be of service to others and to the Creator and devaluing those things which are seen as unethical or service to self.

You will find many wars going on within yourself during this period, and it is as though everything that you did know methodically becomes torn away. This is a necessary and a continuing part of the spiritual path, for distortions are all that we notice. It is difficult for the critical consciousness to perceive complete regularity in an infinite configuration. No, my friends, each of us notices peculiarities, and it is by emphasizing certain dynamic tensions that polarity itself takes place. And so, you may go through a short or lengthy period during which you are seeking with your mind and your heart; you are offering yourself to meditation; and things basically are falling apart for you. If this does not happen to you in at least a small way, if you are not reevaluating your point of view after a certain amount of time, as you call it, meditating, it is perhaps for you to meditate a little bit longer or a little bit more regularly. Perhaps you have a high tolerance for the illusion and to awaken from it may take a little more.

Q’uo went on to say as to personal power, there are many distortions of the magical personality, and those who seek enlightenment are seeking positively polarized distortions of that one great original Thought, for the path to enlightenment is considered, by those to whom service to others is a goal, to be the service-to-others path, and we find it the preferable one, but we do not wish to influence your thinking beyond a certain point, so once you have meditated—frustratingly or pleasantly makes no difference—for long enough to perceive yourself differently than you did before you began to meditate, you will experience outward changes in your perceptions, and this is due to that contact with the essence of Love, the one original Thought of the Creator, that causes a shift in the point of view, but the method of evaluation of data becomes more polarized towards valuing those things which are of service to others and to the Creator and devaluing those things which are service to self. Then Q’uo said you will find many wars going on within yourself during this period, and it is as though everything that you know is torn away, for this is a part of the spiritual path, so distortions are all that we notice, but it is difficult for the critical consciousness to perceive regularity in an infinite way because each of us notices peculiarities, and it is by emphasizing certain tensions that polarity takes place, so you may go through a short or lengthy period during which you are seeking with your mind and your heart; you are offering yourself to meditation; and things are falling apart for you, but if this does not happen to you in a small way, if you are not reevaluating your point of view after a certain amount of time of meditating, it is perhaps for you to meditate a little longer or more regularly, and maybe you have a high tolerance for the illusion and to awaken from it may take a little more meditation. On March 28, 2008, Q’uo described the magical personality:

The questioner, in attempting to create changes in his consciousness by the use of his will, is developing his magical personality. Therefore, we would suggest a certain amount of protocol having to do with these periods of affirmation or statement. That is, at the beginning of this period of affirmation or statement, the collected and fully conscious seeker takes upon himself his magical personality. If he wishes, he may invoke it without words. He may make a gesture which indicates to himself that he has taken on his magical personality. Or he may wear a ring or some other form of adornment to the body which is only worn during this particular ritual.

When invoking the magical personality polarity is, of course, all-important. That polarity may be protected by the simple statement: “I desire to know in order to serve.” Positive magical workings always have to do with service to the one infinite Creator and, by reflection, to the world and to the self. There is nothing of the worldly self involved in the desires of the magical personality. Consequently, this taking on, in a ritualistic fashion, of this personality creates a cleanliness and purity to the working which it would not otherwise have. At the end of the working, then, the ring or other adornment may be removed, another gesture may be made, or another visualization may be made.

In no way become discouraged because this may be so, for your intent will bring you that which you desire. The only variable is what you call time, and there are mysteries in each entity’s life pattern having to do with the higher self’s choice of lessons to be learned in any incarnation which may prohibit the apparent perception of enlightenment. Be patient with yourself at all times. Ask of yourself only that you be faithful once you have decided to seek the truth. Once you have begun this journey, you shall never arrive, for part of you is always aware of what you do not know; another part is learning and is quite disorganized; and another part has learned something recently and is resting and is waiting to see what the next lesson may be. My friends, you are complex people. However, enlightenment is essence in importance, and your perception of enlightenment is the shadow of the reality of compassion. As you meditate, as you begin to widen your point of view, never rest, for there is always another refinement which may offer more beauty to your own consciousness of Love, and for you to reflect that consciousness, for you to seem enlightened, a Light to those around, is a most helpful thing to wish. Never suspect that enlightenment benefits the enlightened one. Enlightened entities, my friends, for the most part, work very hard and do not consider themselves enlightened.

No, enlightenment is for the benefit of lightening others’ weary loads, lifting other people’s spirits with an enlightened smile or a few soft words. Seek the essence of compassion. Seek the Creator which is all truth and all Love. Enlightenment will be your harvest. We wish you a good appetite for meditation, my friends, for it will stand you in good stead. We are always pleased to join you in your meditation if you feel the need to meditate, shall we say, with a group. We would be delighted to add our vibrations to your own if you would mentally request it. We do not, however, wish to speak with any privately, reserving that for the working sessions, my friends.

Q’uo continued by saying do not become discouraged because this may be so, for your intention will bring you that which you desire, for the only variable is time, and there are mysteries in each entity’s life pattern having to do with the higher self’s choice of lessons to be learned in any incarnation which may prohibit the apparent perception of enlightenment, so be patient with yourself, and ask of yourself that you be faithful once you have decided to seek the truth, but once you have begun this journey, you shall never arrive, for part of you is always aware of what you do not know; another part is learning and is disorganized; and another part has learned something recently and is resting and waiting to see what the next lesson may be, but you are complex people, yet your perception of enlightenment is the shadow of the reality of compassion, for as you meditate and begin to widen your point of view, never rest, for there is always another refinement which may offer more beauty to your consciousness of Love, and for you to reflect that consciousness, for you to seem enlightened, a Light to those around, is a helpful thing to wish, but never suspect that enlightenment benefits the enlightened one, for enlightened entities work very hard and do not consider themselves enlightened. Now Q’uo said enlightenment is for the benefit of lifting other people’s spirits with an enlightened smile or a few soft words which seek the essence of compassion, so seek the Creator which is truth and Love, and enlightenment will be your harvest, and we wish you a good appetite for meditation, for it will stand you in good stead, so we are always pleased to join in your meditation if you feel the need to meditate with a group, and we would be delighted to add our vibrations to yours if you mentally request it, but we do not wish to speak with any privately, reserving that for the working sessions. On January 4, 1976, Hatonn describe the consciousness of Love:

The consciousness of Love will continue forever. Your consciousness of Love will be your spiritual personality for eternity. Within this consciousness, the cycles of life and death are merely periods which seem as meaningless as the ticking noise of a clock seems in a year.

Within the consciousness of the physical illusion, life and death are weighty and serious matters and shocking even to discuss. Within the consciousness of Love, all is one and there is nothing to fear. And no one to resist. All that you see is Love. We say this to some of you especially who are anointed with the ability, yet who have not used this ability on all occasions. We say this because, as your ears are opened, and your hearts unstopped, my friends, it is well that you are all the consciousness of Love.

 K who is new to this group and greet each again through this instrument before transferring to the one known as Jim so that any questions that you may have about this body of material you have been given could be answered or any other questions you may wish to ask. We would at this time transfer to the one known as Jim. We leave this instrument with the word Love and the vibration Light. I am Q’uo.

(Jim channeling)

I am Q’uo, and we are grateful to be able to greet you again in Love and Light. We apologize for the delay, for this instrument was desirous through its challenging of being certain that it was receiving our contact and no other. At this time, it is our privilege to ask if there might be any queries to which we might respond more specifically than we were able to respond in our opening message. Is there any query at this time?

J: From tonight’s lesson, do I understand correctly that the path to enlightenment is the path of positive polarity, that is, the path of service to others rather than service to self? Is this correct, first of all?

I am Q’uo, and we emphasized in our previous speaking that the positive polarity choice is, though in our opinion preferable, but one of two choices that those within your illusion may make in traveling the path that leads toward what you have called enlightenment. Thus, the negative choice, that of choosing to be of service to self first and foremost in one’s life patterns, is as valid a choice as is the choice to be of service to others first and foremost in the life patterns.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: No, thank you, that cleared that up. Well, one other question. I know this has been asked before, but let me ask it one more time. What is the best technique for meditation?

I am Q’uo, and in this regard, my brother, we would have no specific meditational technique to offer above all others, for each shall find a particular way of seeking in the meditative state which shall be more effective than others. Yet the variety of choices is large. Each choice, however, to be most effective, in our opinion needs to be based upon the great desire to seek what you may call the truth within each portion of one’s life, and then in a particular portion of the daily experience choose to reflect the Light which one has received back to the Creator in a manner of communing with the one Creator which will allow the seeker then to become aware of the essence of all things within the life pattern.

That is, in the process and state of meditation, one begins to become aware of the unity of Love which binds all things and which moves all experiences in intricate patterns which then offer the lessons of Love to those of your illusion. The desire, then, to seek the heart of the life pattern is that desire which is most helpful to propel one into the meditative state, no matter what technique of meditation is chosen.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: No, thank you. I think it was about two weeks ago when Q’uo joined us once before, it was stated at that time that the Earth is at this time in the middle of an ice age. And we really didn’t get the opportunity to question that particular statement. Could you comment on that now, please?

I am Q’uo, and we scan the previous transmissions and experiences with this group. We find that this information is in regard to the geophysical manifestations upon your planetary sphere at this time which affect the physical illusion. At the same time that the change in what you know as conscious awareness is occurring at the planetary mass mind level, the various physical geophysical patterns of your planet’s expression of this change in vibration or consciousness are various side effects, shall we say, that seem to have a significant influence within your illusion, but which are in effect but rippled effects, shall we say, that fall by the wayside as a greater force finds its expression within the experience of each within your illusion. Thus, you will in the years to come, shall we say, notice more geophysical changes occurring as the shift in the atomic core vibration of each particle of your creation continues in its progress. Thus, we do not feel that these side effects, as we have chosen to call them, are of particular influence or significance when one looks to the heart of the evolutionary process which is ongoing both within your planetary sphere, upon it, and within the life pattern of each entity which calls it home.

J asked: “I think it was about two weeks ago when Q’uo joined us once before, it was stated at that time that the Earth is at this time in the middle of an ice age. And we really didn’t get the opportunity to question that particular statement. Could you comment on that now, please?” Q’uo replied we find this information regards the geophysical manifestations upon your planet at this time which affect the physical illusion, and at the same time the change in conscious awareness is occurring at the planetary mind level, the physical geophysical patterns of your planet’s expression of this change in consciousness are various side effects that have an influence within your illusion which are in effect but are rippled effects that fall by the wayside as a greater force finds its expression within the experience of each within your illusion, so you will notice more geophysical changes occurring as the shift in the atomic core vibration of each particle of your creation continues in its progress, but we do not feel that these side effects are of significance when one looks to the heart of the evolutionary process which is ongoing within your planetary sphere and upon it, and within the life pattern of each entity which calls it home. On August 16, 1987, Q’uo spoke about the nature of geophysical changes:

I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my brother, and we find it is one which is much upon the minds of those who look into what you would call your future and the changing of the age, as it has been called. We find that though this curiosity is most common, that however the signs which many describe that are to usher in, shall we say, this new age and experience are often given in a manner which generates much of fear and confusion among your peoples, for many see as signs those things that are catastrophic upon your illusion at this time. And here we speak of the geophysical changes, and those of powers and principalities that shall rise and fall and have their day. And yet we would say to you that though much of this may, indeed, be true, the signs that should alert each seeker to the change in experience are those which are borne within the geography of one’s interior mind and being.

It cannot be said with certainty that such and such exterior events will occur at a certain time within your illusion, and yet each seeker shall in its own time experience the shifting of perceptions and desires that shall signal to it that there is a transformation within that beckons most assuredly and which will offer to each a wider point from which to view the self and the illusion and the journey through the illusion.

Thus, we would say to you, my brother, that when you look outside the self and see the environment and populations of your planetary sphere changing in many various ways, that you utilize these illusory changes within your illusion as those guideposts which shall alert your inner self to that which awaits the inward eye and the renewed desire to be of service to those about you.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: I guess I’m still somewhat confused as to exactly what was meant by the “ice age.” It’s been my understanding that our scientists are now saying that we are beginning a so-called heat-up of the Earth and this seems somewhat in conflict with that. Could you comment on that?

I am Q’uo, and we find that there are many cycles of experience which in a physical sense are manifesting themselves within your third-density illusion. Some are consecutive and others are congruent with each other. When one looks at a wider view, shall we say, of your planetary influence and sees that which is occurring at various levels of consciousness and various positions upon your planetary sphere, there is an interplay or overlay of points of view that may be taken in both the practical and the metaphorical levels of viewing. Thus, there may be in some portions of your planetary experience the manifestation of increases or reduction in what you would call the planetary transfer of heat or manifestation of this transfer. These may be perceived for a relatively short period of your time or experience in one manner and be perceived in another manner at another time. Thus, we continue to refer to the relative unimportance of this type of research, for it is but the manifested reflection of the greater movement in conscious awareness that is at the heart of all manifestation upon your planetary influence.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: No, thank you. I think I understand now.

I am Q’uo, and we thank you, my brother. Is there another query at this time?

Carla: I was just curious if you were referring to the cycles that were referred to by a fellow named Hammaker—in his book? If you were, I could just give J the book.

I am Q’uo, and we have indeed been referring to many of these cycles, my sister, and others also which are not described within this entity’s work.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No. No, thank you.

I am Q’uo…

Carla: Wake up!

Q’uo: …and we appreciate the attempt to bring into conscious awareness each member of this group, for it is helpful to the group as a receiving mechanism and to any serving as instrument or transmitting mechanism to be focused upon that which is being shared from this group to our group and from our group to yours. Is there any further query at this time?

Questioner: Yes. I appreciate the information on meditation. Now tell me, is anything like a candle or incense when you meditate alone, is that beneficial in any way?

I am Q’uo, and we find, my brother, that there are many such items and portions of ritualized practice which one may utilize in practicing the art of meditation. You may choose any such item or practice that speaks to you of that which you seek in the practice of meditation. Thus, you make your own that which you include within your practice. Many have found these items to be of service in focusing the mind in a manner which does not waver and which serves as a stabilizer for the practice, shall we say.

May we answer further, my brother?

Questioner: That’s fine. One more short question. Two or three times a week in my activities, out of the corner of my eye I sort of see an aura at the tip of one of my fingers. Is there anything to that? Just out of the corner of my eye, only, not looking directly at it.

I am Q’uo, and again, my brother, we find that you have in a unique fashion discovered one manner in which you may view a portion of your own auric field or the electromagnetic pattern of energy that your seeking creates about your physical vehicle. The ability to see in a new way is fundamental to sharpening one’s visual perceptions that would allow the viewing of that called the aura. Your particular method has allowed your conscious perception to be averted in a fashion which then provides entry into your…

[Side one of tape ends.]

I am Q’uo, and greet each of you again in Love and Light. As we had completed our response to the query which was asked of us, we would then ask if we may respond in any further way, my brother?

Questioner: No more questions.

I am Q’uo, and we thank you, my brother, for your queries. Is there another query at this time?

J: If I understood correctly tonight from the session, it was mentioned that as we begin to meditate and seek the enlightenment, that many times we experience somewhat of a chaos either physically or mentally. And I didn’t quite understand the reason for that. Could you comment further on that, please?

I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my brother. As one becomes consciously aware that the daily experience is that which contains the opportunity to progress upon the path of evolution, and as one begins within the meditative, contemplative, or prayer-filled state to consider the meaning of various experiences and thoughts within one’s daily round of activities, portions of these experiences then take on a new Light, as it were, for there is the desire to see beyond the exterior illusion within each experience. This desire propels one’s perception beyond that exterior in order that more of what you might call the true nature of the experience might be made known to the conscious seeker.

As this process continues and feeds to the conscious mind more of the nature of the daily experiences, the seeker may for a varying portion of time or experience see that about it in a new configuration which tends to confuse or fuse together with that manner by which the experience was previously perceived. Thus, there is the fusing of perception, that which is more exterior, with that which is less exterior or more toward the heart of experience that is Love. Thus, the seeker may find that its experience begins to change in configuration in the manner in which it is perceived, and, indeed, the manner in which it is experiencing. Thus, there is the continual, shall we say, transformation of experience and seeker as the process of seeking that which you have called enlightenment continues for each seeker.

J asked: “If I understood correctly tonight from the session, it was mentioned that as we begin to meditate and seek the enlightenment, that many times we experience somewhat of a chaos either physically or mentally. And I didn’t quite understand the reason for that. Could you comment further on that, please?” Then Q’uo said as one becomes consciously aware that the daily experience is that which contains the opportunity to progress upon the path of evolution, and as one begins within the meditative, contemplative, or prayer-filled state to consider the meaning of various experiences within one’s daily round of activities, portions of these experiences then take on a new Light, for there is the desire to see beyond the exterior illusion within each experience, so this desire propels one’s perception beyond that exterior in order that more the true nature of the experience might be made known to the conscious seeker. Q’uo continued by saying as this process feeds the conscious mind more of the nature of the daily experiences, the seeker may see that about it in a new configuration which tends to confuse that manner by which the experience was previously perceived, so there is the fusing of perception toward the heart of experience that is Love, so the seeker may find that its experience begins to change in configuration in the manner in which it is perceived and the manner in which it is experiencing, so there is the continual transformation of the experience and the  seeker as the process of seeking enlightenment continues for each seeker. On February 18, 2018, Q’uo described our heart of experience:

In your question, you are presuming that the conscious mind, through many years of processing catalyst, has developed a certain bias of its own that may or may not be in congruency with the bias of your subconscious mind. In most cases, for positively oriented entities, seeing positive connotations to catalyst, these biases will, very likely, be positive in nature as well, so that you become one who sees into the heart of experience, not being fooled, shall we say, by the exterior appearance of that which comes before your notice. For, indeed, within your third-density illusion, there is Love in every moment, in every event, in every entity, and it is your task, your challenge, your joy to find that Love there. It may be more or less difficult, depending upon previous choices and current catalyst, and the perceptions which you allow yourself to have.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: Although the meditator progresses along the path towards enlightenment, could he experience this transformation as possibly deep depression at times?

I am Q’uo, and we bring to this instrument’s mind the image of the elephant which is perceived by the blind man, each portion of the elephant seeming different from the other, yet each portion being a portion of one entity or concept. The concept of enlightenment has many avenues of entry, shall we say. The journey towards its realization moves through mountains and valleys, across deserts and through jungles. At one time or in one experience, the seeker may perceive a portion of the entirety which is radiant with Light, and the life experience is lifted high into that Light. At another portion of the experience or the journey the seeker may find it necessary to move into the lower or darker regions where the valley of the shadow of darkness as it is called may be that which consumes the seeker’s attention and seems the totality of its experience.

Yet each of these extremes, shall we say, and all points between are portions of one journey, and together may be seen as the entirety of that which shall be the total experience of a seeker throughout your third density illusion in order that each seeker may be provided with those opportunities for learning which are most appropriate with the current needs of that seeker.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: No, thank you. That analogy was very helpful.

I am Q’uo, and we thank you, my brother. We have been made aware through another manner of transmission, shall we say, that there is the need to bring this session to a closing at this time, for there is a great amount of fatigue which is limiting one of the members of this circle from contributing the necessary attention and rejoicing in the experience. We thank each for asking our presence, and for allowing us to join you in your own journey of seeking this evening. We look forward to joining this group at future gatherings as you would reckon your time, and we leave this group at this time in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are known to you as those of Q’uo. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “A human being reading or speaking words of truth is not yet the transcendental Consciousness, and yet when that Consciousness has been attained, it is the human being who is the instrument through which it operates. People born of a woman are mortal, a human being almost completely separated from God and not under God’s care or Grace. But once this human being has attained the transcendental Consciousness, they become that very Christ and thereafter cannot be separated from It. They are one with It and they are It.

In many orthodox religious teachings, Jesus is set apart as the Christ in the sense of His being Christ consciousness separate and apart from any other individual as if He of His born humanhood were It. On the other hand, metaphysics tries to separate Christ from Jesus as if they were two. But Jesus is the Christ. The two are inseparable and indivisible one from the other to such an extent that it is almost forgotten that Jesus is Jesus, and He is usually referred to as the Christ.

So is it true of any and every individual who has attained conscious union with God. The only difference is in degree. It takes a person of the attained consciousness of a Jesus to be able to say, “I and God are one. Thou seest me, thou seest God that sent me.” Others do not quite attain that height of realization where they always speak out from the I: I am the way; I am the truth; I am the life; I am the resurrection; I am the bread; I am the wine; I am the water. That is the transcendental state of consciousness which has gone beyond the human.

In the earliest stages of illumination, there is a sense of twoness. There is a John, Bill, or Mary who is aware of a Presence and a Power—Something overshadowing them, Something helping, guiding, instructing, and governing them. It is within them and functions within and through them, but there is a higher state of consciousness, and that is when there is no person anymore.  There is just I voicing Itself.

That is the Consciousness Itself, and It only comes in the very highest moments of our experience when the Presence is the only being that I Am. It was then that Moses transcended humanhood and said, “I AM THAT I AM.” It was then that Jesus said, “I am the bread of life. I am life eternal. I am the resurrection.”

But even if we do not reach those mountain heights, let us be grateful that we have come to the place where we recognize that within us is Something greater than we are, Something greater than our mentality, experiences, or education, Something that can use our mind and body and has knowledge far greater than anything we might have acquired in school or through travel.

This is the goal: the realization that as a person we are a nothingness. We only become something when we are transcended or overshadowed by this Presence within. That consciousness, when it is attained, is the miracle worker. Therefore, the only demonstration is attaining it. When we have this Light, there is no miracle then in having health, supply, companionship, or home. Therefore, our entire life must be spent in attaining the Light, the transcendental Consciousness.”

Later this morning I vacuumed the first floor of my home.

This afternoon I ran a couple of errands with my first stop being at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some food for myself and a small pot of         . My second stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I bought some paper towels and some Kleenexes.

Later this afternoon I went outside and transplanted one group of 3 Coleus Flowers and one group of 2 Coleus Flowers on the east side of the giant Sycamore Tree in the back yard. (So, I will need to go to Paul’s Fruit Market tomorrow to buy the 3^rd Coleus Flower.) Then I hand-weeded the Sun Patiens Garden in the Flower Fall in the front yard.

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

June 12

The Abiding Peace

I am the Spirit of the principle of the consciousness of Christ, and I greet you in that Love.

I move to comfort you at this time by suggesting that you meditate upon the perfection of the abiding peace which lies beneath your actions, for there is great comfort available to you, as the in-breath which contains your spiritual food. Each time that you breathe in it is possible for you to become the living quality of Christ, for as breath is light to your bodies, so the same breath contains food for your spirit, a manna which your soul’s desire.

Breathe deeply, my children, of the Love within each moment, and when you breathe out let your emanations express all of the best that you have to give.

And if you stumble, continue to breathe, for every breath is an opportunity to focus on Love and to fill your life with that LSove.

Peace 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 Laitos channeling for this session comes from October 15, 1986:

(K channeling)

I am Laitos. We greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. We are pleased to see the conscientiousness with which this instrument has gone about the challenging process and are pleased to have established a firm contact with her. We are also pleased that she was able to perceive our greeting to her personally, which helps strengthen her confidence in the contact. We have enjoyed working with this instrument and feel that she has made good progress. It is our privilege to have worked with this group over many of your years for the purpose of working with new instruments and aiding their training, shall we say, as vocal channels in the service of the infinite Creator. We are pleased to be a part of this process with you.

At this time, we wish to address a few words to the instrument, even though she will shortly be in Venice. [Inaudible]… It is our wish to be able to communicate clearly with this instrument, and as she is uncomfortable with this taking place through her, we transfer the contact at this time. I am Laitos.

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos, and we greet each again through this instrument in Love and in Light. We have been very grateful for being able to work with the instrument known as K, and we are aware that she is desirous of continuing her practice in the art of vocal channeling. We feel that there has been good discussion upon this topic between those of this group, and our comments are meant only to augment those concepts which have been presented thus far. In general, it is a helpful thing for a new instrument to have periodic exercise in the presence of an experienced instrument so that those small and sometimes medium-sized difficulties which occur in the practice of vocal channeling might receive the attention of experience and a sure hand at the appropriate time. This is the ideal situation and one which we endorse whenever it is possible. We are aware that the one known as K has moved quite a significant distance in her experience and practice in serving as a vocal channel, and has in many ways achieved enough proficiency and confidence that the exercising of her instrument would be possible in a carefully guarded situation, shall we say, in which there was not present the more experienced instrument.

However, we would also suggest as has been suggested that this guarding of the situation would take the form of utilizing the presence of at least two other entities who were not only in harmony of a stable nature with the one known as K, but also felt the open-hearted acceptance of this type of information and this means of its transmission. This kind of a situation is not that which is easily obtained, for the vagaries of the seeker’s path, and the choices that may be made upon it by any who travel it make gathering such a grouping of entities somewhat difficult. Even if such a situation were available to the one known as K, it would also be our recommendation that this new instrument also avail herself of periodic contact with this particular group for the purpose of reinforcing those basic principles which she has gained in this period of study and for the answering of those queries which are undoubtedly a part of her practice of this part, for as the practice continues, new experiences arise, and there is often confusion in the mind of the new instrument as to the most appropriate means of resolving each new experience, be it simply new and untested or a difficulty of some kind.

In this session Laitos said that they wanted to work with K in a way that would lessen her difficulties in becoming a vocal channel. They began by saying we have been grateful for being able to work with K, and we are aware that she desires to continue her practice in the art of vocal channeling, and we feel that there has been good discussion upon this topic between those of this group, so our comments are meant to aid those concepts which have been presented so far, for it is an helpful thing for a new instrument to have periodic exercise in the presence of an experienced instrument so that those difficulties which occur in the practice of vocal channeling might receive the attention of experience at the appropriate time, and this is the ideal situation and one which we endorse whenever it is possible, but we are aware that K has moved a significant distance in her practice in serving as a vocal channel, and she has achieved enough confidence that the exercising of her instrument would be possible in a carefully guarded situation, in which there was not present the more experienced instrument. Laitos went on to say we suggest that this guarding of the situation would take the form of utilizing the presence of at least two other entities who were not only in harmony of a stable nature with K, but they felt the open-hearted acceptance of this type of information and this means of its transmission, but this kind of a situation is not that which is easily obtained, for the vagaries of the seeker’s path, and the choices that may be made upon it by any who travel it make gathering such a grouping of entities somewhat difficult, so even if such a situation were available to K, it would be our recommendation that she also continue periodic contact with this group for the purpose of reinforcing those basic principles which she has gained in this period of study and for answering queries which are a part of her practice of this part, for as the practice continues, new experiences arise, and there is often confusion in the mind of the new instrument as to the most appropriate means of resolving each new experience, be it simply new and untested or a difficulty of some kind. On June 10, 1982, Laitos suggested the presence of at least two other entities for each channeling session:

That to all we ask that the practicing of the opening of the—we correct this instrument—that the opening of the instrument be attempted only when there is a supportive group of at least two other entities, one of which is preferably more experienced. We also suggest this thought to all.

If the one known as K does not feel that there is available to her a stable situation of the nature which we have described, we might recommend that there is still work that can be done in the practice of a portion of the art of vocal channeling. That practice does not, however, take the form of the actual vocalizing of our contact as is ongoing at the present moment, but would rather take the form of setting aside regular periods of meditation on a preferably daily basis, during which our conditioning vibration might be mentally requested and we might continue to familiarize ourselves and our contact to the one known as K and allow this new instrument to refine her ability to perceive our contact though there would be no transmission of thought other than our identification. The experience would be primarily one of recognizing our contact and experiencing the conditioning vibration…

Laitos went on to say if K does not feel that there is available to her a stable situation of the nature which we have described, we might recommend that there is still work that can be done in the practice of a portion of the art of vocal channeling,  yet that practice does not take the form of vocalizing of our contact as is ongoing at the present moment, but it would take the form of setting aside regular periods of meditation on a daily basis during which our conditioning vibration might be mentally requested, and we might continue to familiarize ourselves and our contact to K and allow this new instrument to refine her ability to perceive our contact though there would be no transmission of thought other than our identification, so the experience would be one of recognizing our contact and experiencing the conditioning vibration. On September 23, 2000, Q’uo spoke of the value of experiencing the conditioning vibration:

There are others within the Confederation of Planets who have offered themselves over the years of this group’s history in a manner which may be seen as sending the basic vibration of Love that aids in each heart’s opening in some degree to the messages offered by other members of the Confederation. Some there are who have not chosen what you call the naming, who are unseen and unnamed, who have had their influence and continue to do so within this group’s circle of seeking. Each entity is available upon the mental request of any in this circle of seeking to join that seeker in the private meditation, not to speak or to communicate in words, but simply to lend the conditioning vibration which aids in the deepening of the meditation of those who call. This is our privilege and our honor, to aid each entity who calls in the meditative state. It is a steadying influence which brings a more focused approach for the seeker to the listening to the silence, to the one Creator, to the heart of the self.

[Tape ends.]

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “To us, it is given to understand how to rise above the battle between good and evil, to know how to still the storm, whether at sea or on land, whether a burning fire, an incoming tidal wave, or infection and contagion ravaging the land. To us, it is given to know how to say, “Thus far, and no farther,” and then to stand still, to retire within ourselves from the noise of the battle, without refuting, denying, or fighting, without ever wielding the sword. It is given to us to know that those who live by the sword shall die by the sword, and, therefore, we have put up our sword and will never again take out either a physical or a mental sword—not even a spiritual sword. In reality there is no power for us to oppose physically, mentally, or spiritually, so we need no sword. It has been given to us to know that we live and move and have our being in God in whom is no darkness at all, in whom is no warfare. It is given to us to know that the sovereign, divine remedy for all the ills of the world is to resist not evil.

Throughout all ages the world has been blessed with mystics who have made enduring contributions to the spiritual vision of the world, but just as the teaching found in this book cannot be understood by the masses, so the masses have not had the wisdom to heed these mystics or their teachings. No spiritual teaching can ever be understood, believed, or accepted by the unillumined mind which can only grasp what can be seen, heard, tasted, touched, or smelled. The unillumined mind cannot comprehend the spiritual presence or no-power because before spiritual wisdom can be understood, the Soul faculties must be opened and spiritual discernment aroused or awakened. All human beings are asleep—asleep in the belief of material and mental powers, asleep to the reality of spiritual being, to the transcendental and mystical Presence and Power which are called God.

The scriptures of every faith have revealed that there is a transcendental Presence which when embraced, encompasses our being and reaches our heart center, setting us apart from the world. Then the germs that lay low the world with grippe and flu do not come nigh our dwelling place, and even if momentarily they do, they are quickly removed. Alcoholism, drug addiction, and juvenile delinquency do not mar the peace and serenity of our household, and if they should touch it, they are quickly dispelled because we have learned how to hide ourselves in the secret place of the most High and live in an atmosphere of Love instead of hate, injustice, and inequality.

So it is that every spiritual healing is the result of one individual sitting in the Silence quietly, peacefully waiting, and then the Spirit comes through the consciousness of that one—the voice thunders in the Silence, and the Earth melts.

We become that one in proportion as we learn to be nothing, to be still, and to let the Light act in us and through us and as us. Someday, when this world comes to the place of solving its problems by meditation instead of by arms—by the sword—the Spirit will so illumine every situation that there will be no need for the knife or the pistol.

God does not impart glory to another; therefore, let us not attempt to be spiritually powerful, but be spiritually humble and let God’s Grace perform Its functions through us and as us. God functions through individual consciousness, and that becomes our consciousness when we have learned to be still enough to hear the thunder of the Silence.”

Later this morning I went outside and hand-weeded the Yellow Creeping Jenny Garden in the back yard. Then I hand-weeded the small Hosta Garden in the back yard.

This afternoon I went outside and used Whip Lash to weed the Liriope Garden next to the fishpond. Then I spread two bags of Red Cedar mulch in the Liriope Garden. Then I discovered that I needed another bag of Red Cedar mulch to complete the mulching. And I also decided to plant 6 more Coleus flowers at the base of the giant Sycamore tree in the back yard. So, I went on an errand run with my first stop being at Thieneman’s Nursery where I bought 1 bag of Red Cedar mulch. Then I stopped at Paul’s Fruit Market and bought 6 Coleus flowers. When I got home I spread the bag of Red Cedar mulch in the Liriope Garden, and that finished the mulching.

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

June 11

Rejoicing And Praising

Greetings in the love of Jesus Christ. I am of the principle of the consciousness of Love in the vibration which comforts this child.

As we have been speaking with you, we have refrained from using the usual appellations of lordship and kingdom, power and might. We have done this in order that you may perceive that we are part of consciousness, as you are part of consciousness, and are very near to you, not shutting you out but welcoming you into the consciousness which all may share.

Why, then, have words like “Lord” and “Holy” and “Blessed” and “Most High” been given to Jesus the Christ, to His Father, and to that principle of which I am a part?

My children, search within yourselves to see if you can rejoice without praising or worship without exalting. It is a thing man made for his own benefit, the naming and the praising. For we who communicate the consciousness of Love wish to offer inspiration and a feeling that there is a true mystery. And mankind, having seen the mystery, must express praise and joy in his own way.

Therefore, as you adore, use all the phrases that lift you up. And lift up Love, without self-consciousness but in the knowledge that you are urging yourselves on in a good race. For the more you laugh and rejoice in Love, the closer your consciousness is to dwelling within the consciousness and the kingdom of heaven.

Peace be with each of you.

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 channeling for this session comes from October 12, 1986:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I greet you in the Love and Light of our infinite Creator. What a privilege it is to be able to speak through this instrument to you this evening and to share your life patterns for this moment. The blending of energies is most enhancing, each piece of the Creator enhancing the experience of each other portion. We are most grateful for your sharing of yourselves with us and only hope that our poor thoughts may be of some interest to you this evening. We were enjoying the peaceful centering of the energy of your group in silence and left you in that silence because those of Laitos were working with two in this group. We try not to step on each other’s toes, as it were, when one or more of the members of the Confederation, or indeed, when any other contact is working with the same entities we are.

It is rewarding to see that the concept of meditation in this group has not broken down to include only the concept of the channeled information, for, indeed, it is the silence that teaches, perhaps more than even the most inspiring words, just as it is the space between objects which allows objects to have dimension. We hope that you may bring that silence with you as a tool to use not in the dark with your eyes closed only, but in the harshest of daylights and under the most trying of conditions, for if there is a portion of you that remains in the silence of that which is most precious to you, then all else is but a shadow which moves across the sun at the center of your being, and no cloud is large enough to blot out the joy you may take in living, and if the silence be gone from the noon day, then you are lost to the hustle and bustle of your conscious daily thoughts. It is difficult to Love when one is busy. It is difficult to perceive or experience the consciousness of the Creator or to take part in the one original Thought which created you.

If you no longer have any silence in your heart, it is as though you were a king who could direct and control your kingdom in any way that you wished, and so you began to wish and one thing was added upon another, all things that at one time or another you had wished, all eventually manifesting in one way or another. And yet, as wealthy and powerful as a king may be, still there is a limit to what a king can perceive and enjoy, and so you end up being not the ruler of your life, but its servant, ministering unto your desires and moving through your days as your kingdom wills you to move. Your past desires have all come home to roost, and you have been trapped by your own snare. None of you who feels that these words have truth is alone in this perception, for it is the nature of your culture to distract yourself from the consciousness of the Love and Light of the one Creator. It is difficult to turn from the riches of an earthly, shall we say, kingdom and choose the bright and shining ideals of an unseen kingdom. They do not glitter in the hand, nor are they grateful to the touch. Pursued, they retreat. Those unseen values which you desire have no market value. It is difficult to explain the spiritual path to any who do not Love the silence already or at least hunger for that which cannot be held in the hand or assessed for material wealth.

In this session Hatonn spoke about the value of silent meditation. They began by saying it is rewarding to see that the concept of meditation in this group has not broken down to include only the concept of channeled information, for it is the silence that teaches more than the most inspiring words, just as it is the space between objects which allows objects to have dimension, so we hope that you may bring that silence with you as a tool to use, not in the dark with your eyes closed, but in the harshest of Light, for if there is a portion of you that remains in the silence of that which is precious to you, then all else is but a shadow which moves across the sun at the center of your being, and no cloud is large enough to blot out the joy you may take in living, and if the silence is gone from the noon day, then you are lost to the hustle and bustle of your conscious daily thoughts, yet it is difficult to Love when one is busy, for it is difficult to perceive the consciousness of the Creator or to take part in the one original Thought which created you. Then Hatonn said if you no longer have any silence in your heart, it is as though you were a king who could control your kingdom in any way that you wished, and so one thing was added upon another, and all things that you had wished eventually manifested in one way or another, yet as powerful as a king may be, still there is a limit to what a king can enjoy, and you end up being, not the ruler of your life, but its servant ministering unto your desires and moving through your days as your kingdom wills you to move,  for your past desires have all come home to roost, and you have been trapped by your own snare, but none of you who feels that these words have truth is alone in this perception, for it is the nature of your culture to distract you from the consciousness of the Love and Light of the one Creator since it is difficult to turn from the riches of an earthly kingdom and choose the bright and shining ideals of an unseen kingdom, for they do not glitter in the hand, nor are they grateful to the touch, and when pursued they retreat, so unseen values which you desire have no market value, but it is difficult to explain the spiritual path to any who do not Love the silence or hunger for that which cannot be assessed for material wealth. On August 22, 1982, Latwii described the Love and Light of the one Creator:

Indeed, the Love and Light of the one Creator which is ever present and available to each entity is a healing energy, for to become aware, in even a distorted degree, of the nature of this Love and Llight is to experience the wholeness and the healingness of the one Creator.

Yet, if you are dwelling in the silence to the extent that you can carry a small portion of it with you, it will not disturb you that many do not understand what motivates you. It will be enough that you have the opportunity to express yourself in Love to other portions of the Creator. What entities may think of you is irrelevant to the excellence of your effort. Indeed, what you yourself estimate to be your excellence is irrelevant, for in the world of invisible things, where truth and beauty lie waiting to be found, all that is needed, all that is relevant is your seeking, that is your power and your peace. It is your very identification, for you are what you desire. May your desires flow from you in a clean and pure stream, glittering and bubbling and moving in life into the great ocean of all that there is, that when all things are prepared as is necessary for you, each and every desire may be yours in full, your birthright claimed.

Then Hatonn said if you are dwelling in the silence to the extent that you can carry a small portion of it with you, it will not disturb you that many do not understand what motivates you, for it will be enough that you have the opportunity to express yourself in Love to other portions of the Creator, so what entities may think of you is unrelated to the excellence of your effort, and what you estimate to be your excellence is unrelated, for in the world of invisible things, where truth and beauty lie waiting to be found, all that is needed is your seeking that is your power and your peace, so it is your identification, for you are what you desire, and may your desires flow from you in a pure stream and moving into the ocean of all that there is, that when all things are prepared as is necessary for you, each desire may be your birthright claimed. On October 23, 1983, Hatonn described the nature of our birthright:

We are not saying that you deserve to be of a certain nature, that you are worthy, that you have earned the nature of manifested Love. You have done nothing to earn this—it is your birthright. It is within you; most have forgotten it. Therefore, a great portion of your seeking and the touchstone of your ascent upon every mountain of truth is recognition, for each truth will be recognized rather than learned. You know already all of truth, for you are truth; you embody the Creator; you manifest the very nature of Love, and you change constantly.

Before we leave this group, we would like to exercise the new instrument, and so we would close through the one known as K. I am Hatonn.

(K channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I greet you once again, my friends, in Love and Light through this instrument. We deem it a great privilege to be able to speak through yet another instrument who has offered herself in service as a vocal channel. It is our desire to share our humble thoughts with you for whatever help they may be to you on your various paths toward the One. We are ever grateful for additional opportunities for this.

My friends, the time is near when we will no longer have the need to speak through a vocal channel, for our thoughts will be known to you, but for the present, as we seek to aid your planet in its birthing pains, shall we say, it is our privilege and our service to share our thoughts with you through those who have offered themselves as vocal channels. We are glad to be able to be with you in these times, my friends, and are grateful for your desire to share with us those things which are eternal. Many are the distractions upon your paths, my friends. Many are the things of the moment which capture the attention, which pull you one way or another. There are many things of great interest which are of but transient importance. We know that you are aware of this, my friends.

We urge you to hone your awareness of those things which are transient and those things which are eternal. We watch your growth, and we appreciate your efforts in focusing on those matters which you deem to be of true importance. We are glad of the opportunity to offer you our humble opinions, and, as always, my friends, we would urge you to take our words lightly, to take to your hearts only those words which you feel to be of value to you, for it is not our intent to lay on you heavy burdens. Your illusion is heavy enough, my friends, and we would count a privilege to be able to lighten your load, not to add to it.

At this time we would take our leave of this instrument and your group, leaving you in the joy of the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator. Let your hearts be merry, my friends and rejoice, for truly your path may be and your burden may be light, as it is written in your holy works. Farewell, my friends, in Love and Light. I am Hatonn.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of our infinite Creator. We are overjoyed to be able to join your group this evening, and we thank you for this opportunity. It is once again our privilege to be able to offer ourselves in the capacity of attempting to answer those queries which you may find of interest in your own seeking. We would repeat the suggestion of our brothers and sisters of Hatonn that you neither take our words too seriously or regard them as being more than our opinions. With that disclaimer, we would be happy to attempt to respond to those queries you may have.

C: Latwii, could you speak to me briefly about living within the moment?

I am Latwii. In brief, my brother, it is a good idea. We shall perhaps elaborate. It is a common feeling and tendency among your people to look backward and forward as the present moment is experienced. The present moment then becomes a recapitulation of the history of one’s existence, and when this does not occur quite frequently the present moment becomes a consideration of the possibilities which the future might hold for one. Thus, the present moment is that which offers to an entity the opportunity to look backward and to assess that which has been accomplished, to look forward and to consider that which is possible to accomplish, and all that has been done and shall be done will be done within a present moment.

That present moment, then, is that which has power within one’s experience. The power of that present moment may be harnessed in any manner in which you choose. Indeed, we affirm the efficiency of looking upon the experiences one has gathered and gleaning from them those attitudes, and biases, and considerations which are helpful in the process of spiritual evolution, for by such contemplation is one able to benefit from experience. We can also affirm the helpfulness of taking what one has learned from experience and projecting possibilities as to how future moments might be enhanced by applying these lessons which have been learned. Thus, one prepares oneself to share the harvest of one’s experience in a helpful manner.

C asked: “Latwii, could you speak to me briefly about living within the moment?” Latwii replied by saying it is a common tendency among your people to look backward and forward as the present moment is experienced, so the present moment becomes a reliving of the history of one’s existence, and when this does not occur frequently the present moment becomes a consideration of the possibilities which the future might hold for one, for the present moment is that which offers to an entity the opportunity to look backward and to assess that which has been accomplished, to look forward and to consider that which is possible to accomplish, and all that has been done and shall be done will be done within a present moment. Then Latwii said the present moment is that which has power within one’s experience which may be harnessed in any manner that you choose, for we affirm the efficiency of looking upon the experiences one has gathered and gleaning from them those considerations which are helpful in the process of spiritual evolution, for by such contemplation is one able to benefit from experience, and we can affirm the helpfulness of taking what one has learned from experience and projecting possibilities as to how future moments might be enhanced by applying these lessons which have been learned, so one prepares oneself to share the harvest of one’s experience in a helpful manner. On January 9, 2006, Q’uo described the nature of the present moment:

We find all that this group has discussed this day to be appropriate. We do not have any desire to limit you in how you wish to present the information. We would only say to you that to balance the intensive dedication of each of you to manifesting, it is a good idea to spend a significant amount of your time becoming aware of the present moment, relaxing all tension or worry, and simply spending time knowing that all is well and that all will be well. Lighten up and find the light touch, the laughter, the bliss, and the joy that are only available when you are focusing on the present moment. Have fun with this, my friends, just as we are having the time of our lives working with you.

However, as you well know, my brother, the present moment is also that which is complete within itself, and in this light needs no addition from the past or from the future. The present moment may become, if it is one’s desire, a finely focused experience of all that one is, and all that one can be, and all that one has been. In this focus of experience, the full potential of one’s being is brought to bear upon one’s thinking and the boundaries or limitations of one’s thinking or one’s beliefs are offered the opportunity to expand. As one begins to create a space in experience in the present moment, which is undiluted by the past or the future, one then harvests potential. One in this harvest may become inspired, shall we say, by that which is and that which exists within one’s being. In such present moment experiences, one may fully appreciate the completeness which is the foundation of any entity’s being.

Of course, my brother, you are aware that the meditative state is that state which offers the easiest access to such present moment experiences, for such experiences of the power of the present moment and the perfection of one’s being are those which become available to an entity when there is no coloration of past, or future, or thought of any kind to form a filter through which the present moment must be perceived. Thus, within the present moment experience one may, in a manner of speaking, not only recharge the battery of one’s personal energy, but may discover that that battery is fully charged at all times, and in this discovery, and from this discovery one may then move into the daily round of activities inspired and ennobled, shall we say, so that the ability to utilize what has been learned is enhanced and the ability to gather further lessons available in each present moment is also enhanced. Thus, my brother, you see how the present moment is the moment of power within any seeker’s experience. Within that moment, one may turn the eyes backward, forward and may also rest the eyes within the moment of one’s being.

Then Latwii went on to say the present moment is also that which is complete within itself, and in this light needs no addition from the past or from the future, for the present moment may become a focused experience of all that one is, and all that one can be, and all that one has been, so in this focus of experience the full potential of one’s being is brought to bear upon one’s thinking and the limitations of one’s beliefs are offered the opportunity to expand, yet as one begins to create a space in experience in the present moment, which is undiluted by the past or the future, one then harvests its potential, for one in this harvest may become inspired by that which is and that which exists within one’s being because in present moment experiences, one may appreciate the completeness which is the foundation of any entity’s being. Latwii continued by saying the meditative state is that state which offers the easiest access to present moment experiences, for such experiences of the power of the present moment and the perfection of one’s being are those which become available to an entity when there is no coloration of past, or future, or thought of any kind to form a filter through which the present moment must be perceived, for within the present moment experience one may discover that its battery is fully charged at all times, and from this discovery one may move into the daily round of activities inspired, so that the ability to utilize what has been learned is enhanced, and the ability to gather further lessons in each present moment is also enhanced, so you see how the present moment is the moment of power within any seeker’s experience, and within that moment one may turn the eyes backward, forward, and may rest the eyes within the moment of one’s being. On November 17, 1991, Q’uo described more layers to the present moment:

Each entity in each experience is, in part, working internally to place the present moment into a context which will yield the maximum amount of information. This information is usually heavily biased toward comfort and well-being. However, the mind can be increasingly trained to retain catalyst, which is presented to the mind, which perhaps has little, if any, survival use, but which does indeed aid in spiritual learning.

And the way to become more able to do this work in consciousness is to persist in experiencing and studying one system, be it of myth, science, philosophy or ethics, or any system whatsoever, which the seeker is personally and individually drawn.

For you are, indeed, living on the eve of that which shall come to be. It is almost impossible to describe the nature of the shift of consciousness from basic third density to basic fourth density. This shift shall take you with it, if you dwell now on planet Earth. Therefore, we encourage the twin awarenesses that it is a good time to be watchful and that it is a good time to celebrate. That which astrology or any “ology” might do is aid in development of that sharply tuned hunger for the truth revealed within the present moment. How we do encourage each to more and more dwell and marinate the complete entity in that present moment? It may seem odd that the mind’s structure is such that the entrance to the present moment is often round about, moving not through the invisible door into the fully accepted present, but rather going completely around the entire structure of living to surprise the present moment only after the long walk has sharpened the appetite.

May we speak further, my brother?

C: Here of late I go through long spells where I have trouble remembering anything of the past. Things seem like this is how they’ve always been. And actually, it’s been very peaceful to feel that way, but at times I will get a feeling of guilt, thinking that I should have more feelings than I do about the past. But they’re just not there.

I am Latwii, and we perceive a comment upon your experience that may also benefit from a comment from our point of view, though we have not been queried specifically. We may suggest that when you have the ability to look upon those experiences that are a part of your history, shall we say, without a feeling of joy or sadness, you may assume that those experiences have been utilized in an efficient manner, for when there are emotional charges, shall we say, that are apparent and connected to any experience, then one may assume that there is work in that experience which one may undertake, for the emotional colorations that one feels for any thought, experience, or entity are distorted perceptions that are distorted in such and such a fashion in order that an entity will be drawn into the process of balancing these perceptions, so that the final product of all experience is a quiet acceptance that may in metaphysical terms be translated as unconditional Love.

May we answer further, my brother?

C: No. That’s reassuring, and I say thank you because I know that many times I’ll ramble instead of putting a question together, and you always pick it up for me. But I would ask you just this one last thing.

I find at this particular time an attraction to a person who I see as myself ten or twelve years ago—the person whose development is pretty much where mine was. Can you give me any indication on why I’m feeling pulled towards something like that?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my brother. We find in this instance that the attraction of which you speak is one which has numerous—we search this instrument’s mind for the proper terminology—components which are feeding in to the attraction. Some of these are those which we would rather allow your own discovery to bring to the conscious attention, for this is a part of your current experience which offers to you the opportunity for growth which we would not wish to take from you. We may suggest in one aspect of this experience that as you see a portion of yourself in another which you have yet to balance, shall we say, in your own experience, but for which you feel great affection, you may expect that this recognition of a portion of yourself in another has the potential to offer to each of you an opportunity to move from one point of viewing to another which is larger, shall we say, in scope.

May we answer further, my brother?

C: No, thank you very much.

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

K: I have a couple of questions, Latwii. The first has to do with emotional charges attached to past experiences or people. I know there are a number of experiences in my life which are painful to me to remember, and I have some more feelings attached to a number of people, some that are very close to me. I wonder if you can comment for me on the balancing process that needs to be done in these situations?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my sister. When one sees within one’s emotional responses a charge which is significant, whether it be positively expressed or negatively expressed, one may look upon such charge as that which is one-half of the full point of view which, when attained, will represent balance within one’s being. Thus, if one wishes to work upon this balance, one may in the meditative state or in solitary contemplation look upon that charge and examine its nature. If one can recall specific instances in which this charge was developed, these experiences then may be relived, shall we say, within the mind and may, indeed, be enhanced to the point that the charge is magnified to the greatest extent that is possible. This charge then may be likened unto the pendulum which has been moved…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and am once again with this instrument. We shall continue.

The pendulum then may be seen as having been moved to the fullest position upon its arc on one side of the perpendicular, shall we say, so that there is now the potential of swinging in a full arc to the opposite side. The magnified emotion then may attract in one’s mind the polar opposite. This is a natural process which one may then allow to increase within the mind until the opposite emotion is of equal strength. When both may be seen within the mind, you may then view each as a portion of a continuum, the entire continuum offering to you the opportunity of experiencing more of the one Creator. If you can accept yourself completely for containing within your being this range of opportunities for knowing the one Creator, then you have utilized the emotions that have guided your progress.

K asked: “I know there are a number of experiences in my life which are painful to me to remember, and I have some more feelings attached to a number of people, some that are very close to me. I wonder if you can comment for me on the balancing process that needs to be done in these situations?” Latwii replied when one sees within one’s emotional responses a charge which is significant, whether it be positively expressed or negatively expressed, one may look upon such charge as that which is one-half of the full point of view which, when attained, will represent balance within one’s being, and if one wishes to work upon this balance, one may in the meditative state or in solitary contemplation look upon that charge and examine its nature, so if one can recall specific instances in which this charge was developed, these experiences may be relived within the mind and may be enhanced to the point that the charge is magnified to the greatest extent that is possible. Latwii continued by saying the pendulum may be seen as having been moved to the fullest position upon its arc on one side of the perpendicular, so that there is now the potential of swinging in a full arc to the opposite side, for the magnified emotion may attract in one’s mind the polar opposite since this is a natural process which one may allow to increase within the mind until the opposite emotion is of equal strength, so when both may be seen within the mind, you may view each as a portion of a continuum offering to you the opportunity of experiencing more of the one Creator, and if you can accept yourself for containing within your being this range of opportunities for knowing the one Creator, then you have utilized the emotions that have guided your progress. On December 19, 2020, Q’uo described the balancing process:

If you are concerned with your actions in general, and how they provide catalyst for others that you may not be able to have such a communication with, we would recommend that you retire to the meditative state, look within your being, and see how you might become the other self, or other selves that would experience your sharing of the nature of yourself which you describe as catalytic.

In this fashion, as you begin to partake in the nature of the other being’s reality, you may be able to determine how your behaviors affect others, and thereby adjust your behaviors, if this is your desire. Or you may, indeed, go further than this, and use the perception you have gained by becoming the other self to engage in the balancing process, so that you take that behavior that you offered to another, and balance it by increasing its potency, its expression, so that it may then begin to attract to you, the opposite of its expression, that you also allow to grow in magnitude until it equals the other expression, then accept yourself as a balanced being in this regard.

May we answer further, my sister?

K: Can you tell me if it’s possible as a result of having a strong emotional charge attached to particular people or situations and having those remain unbalanced, is it possible to throw off the course of a planned incarnation? I guess I mean throw off to the point of it being a waste.

I am Latwii, and we feel that we are aware of your query. If our response does not reflect this, please query further. If you have emotional responses to any entity or event which become strong enough to be recorded in your memory, and which have not found the resolution in balance, one may expect to see these types of responses repeated within the life pattern until work with them is sufficient to achieve balance. When an incarnation has been completed, there is seen those patterns which have achieved balance and those which yet await balance. The latter then becomes a portion of the work to be accomplished within the next incarnational pattern. Thus, we do not see efforts within any incarnation as being wasted, shall we say, but as providing further opportunity for learning and for serving others.

May we respond further, my sister?

K: If an entity has a particular planned service or mission, as it were, a plan for a particular incarnation, is it possible to miss that by failing to utilize catalyst efficiently or failing to learn a lesson prior to the time that this service was to be accomplished?

I am Latwii and in general we would respond to your query by suggesting that such is possible, for within any incarnational pattern, there is the possibility of ignoring any catalyst that one may find within the incarnational pattern. Indeed, within an incarnation, the nature of free will is such that an entity may move in any pattern which it chooses, however, there is the momentum of the pre-incarnational choices which tends to bring before the entity’s notice the catalyst which has been designed to provide the entity with the opportunity to learn and to serve in such and such a fashion according to the pre-incarnative choices. It is a somewhat difficult task to ignore or reject what one has placed within one’s path. However, this is possible if a strong enough exercise of will is manufactured.

There are lessons that then develop from ignoring pre-incarnational patterns which may have been totally unplanned, yet may also add to the entity’s ability to learn and to serve, whether the service is that which was planned previous to the incarnation or not. The possibilities of any incarnation are infinite, for within the incarnation free will and that which has been predetermined mix and blend, weaving various patterns at various times so that there is a constant interplay of attraction and repulsion.

K asked: “If an entity has a particular planned service or mission, as it were, a plan for a particular incarnation, is it possible to miss that by failing to utilize catalyst efficiently or failing to learn a lesson prior to the time that this service was to be accomplished?” Latwii said such is possible, for within any incarnational pattern, there is the possibility of ignoring any catalyst that one may find within the incarnational pattern, for within an incarnation, the nature of free will is such that an entity may move in any pattern which it chooses, but there is the momentum of the pre-incarnational choices which tends to bring before the entity’s notice the catalyst which has been designed to provide the entity with the opportunity to learn and to serve in such a fashion according to the pre-incarnative choices, but it is a difficult task to ignore what one has placed within one’s path, yet this is possible if a strong enough exercise of will is manufactured. Now Latwii said there are lessons that develop from ignoring pre-incarnational patterns which may have been unplanned yet may also add to the entity’s ability to learn and to serve, whether the service is that which was planned previous to the incarnation or not, but the possibilities of any incarnation are infinite, for within the incarnation free will and that which has been predetermined blend, weaving various patterns at various times so that there is a constant interplay of attraction and repulsion. On February 18, 2007, Q’uo spoke of the nature of attraction and repulsion:

Investigation has shown that which seems to be solid matter is actually made up largely of a plenum or a space in which there is no mass, very thinly populated by energy vortices. These energy vortices are the atoms and molecules that make up the cells of your body as well as the material of all other things that you can see, feel, touch, taste, and smell.

These energy fields cooperate together and nest within one another in various ways according to the nature of attraction and repulsion, forming the universe that you see. Scientific inquiry has proven that all parts of the universe communicate and are connected with all other parts of the universe, so that the universe is one thing. This is not given to you by priests or prophets but by your scientists, who have become the priests and prophets of your culture, if we may give it that name.

What is the nature, then, of these vibratory patterns that arrange themselves hierarchically so as to create orders of magnitude, creating everything from the atoms and molecules within the cells of your body to the star systems within your galaxy? We of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator have identified the nature of these hierarchically unitive and harmonious energy fields as being that of Love.

The energy that created the stars is that of Love. The energy that created you is the energy of Love. That does not define Love, for if Love is all that there is, there is nothing to which to compare it. There’s nothing from which to contrast it. In its undistorted form it is forever a mystery, unable to be plumbed by centers of consciousness which are aware of themselves. The truth of the universe lies most profoundly in the unknowable reaches of the mystery of the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator.

Yet the universe is unitive. And it is unitive in a certain way. It is unitive holographically. Any one spark of the infinite Creator contains the entire nature of the one infinite Creator. Every cell of your body sings the song of the one infinite Creator. The suns in their courses sing the song of the one infinite Creator. There is fullness to the universe that is intense, as if every particle and iota of the universe were stuffed to bursting with the Love and the Light of life.

May we answer further, my sister?

K: No, thank you, that was very helpful. I have one further question, though. Can you comment for me at all on the nature or the cause of very strong positive attractions to various people or specific people?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my sister. It is quite a large subject, for all things and people which come before one’s notice within the illusion in which you experience your current incarnation are a portion of the self in one degree or another. The attraction of the self to the self is that which is a natural portion of the creation, for the creation, as you know, is of one thing, that great Thought of Love which motivates all that is and is the fabric of all creation.

If you are able to perceive in a relatively clear fashion more of the heart of your own being within yourself and are able then to look with this same eye upon those about you and recognize a clearer reflection of that which each is, then you may feel an attraction which is unhindered by the disguises, shall we say, that are the personalities which allow entities to pursue lessons in a unique fashion. Thus, it is not so much the uniqueness of entities which attracts one to another as it is a clearer and clearer expression of that which is the same for all, that being the expression of the Love of the one Creator.

May we answer further, my sister?

K: No, that’s very helpful. Thank you.

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

[Pause]

I am Latwii, and we find that for the moment we have exhausted those queries which those present have brought to our attention. We thank each of you for your gifts of the query which opens yet another avenue of seeking the one Creator. We have enjoyed our speaking with this group this evening. We always look forward to the opportunity to join this group, for it is a merry one which enjoys even our silly sense of humor. We can’t get laughs in every bar in the universe, you know. We always hang out with our friends—we too have our attractions.

We shall leave this group at this time, rejoicing in the Love and in the Light that we have found here and in all portions of the one Creation. We are those of Latwii. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “There had to be a Jesus before the power of non-resistance could be made evident. There must always be someone through whom the spiritual Light can shine and who can stand still and bear witness to the presence and power of God as the only Presence and the only Power. Throughout all ages, the illumination of a Moses, an Isaiah, a Jesus, John, or Paul has resulted in the revelation of harmony to all those able and willing to receive it spiritually,

Looking back and thinking of their developed spiritual consciousness, we would expect perhaps that the influence of these illumined souls would have permeated the whole world and brought harmony and peace to it; yet, as we all know, even while these great Lights were walking this Earth, the greater part of the world was experiencing untold disasters. That is because no matter how high a degree of spiritual consciousness a person attains, they can bless and help only those who will bring themselves into the orbit of their consciousness. As they become a living witness to the Word made flesh, they make no attempt to exert power: they remain still and behold the activity of God as It touches the lives of all those around them.

If there is a disaster about us, it will go on and on until it exhausts itself unless one among us knows this truth. If it is to be stopped dead in its tracks, there must be one who can stand still and realize that the grace of God, besides which there is no power, is in operation; there must be one to be completely silent and bear witness to the Spirit which stills the waves.

It is true that a thousand may fall at our left hand and ten thousand at our right hand. There is not much that we can do about that at this present moment except to prove in our individual experience that because of our conscious oneness with God none of these things can come nigh our dwelling place.

The spiritual word cannot penetrate the human mind; but we can and will help the world rise above war and disease by being the light in our own family, not preaching to them or trying to force them into our way of thinking, but by holding our peace within ourselves and retiring from the battle between good and evil by going within and realizing that only in the degree that we resist not evil can the peace that passes understanding descend upon us.

If necessary, let us sit in a chair all day and all night, until the Spirit of the Lord is upon us and dwells in us. Then after this principle of resist not has been demonstrated in our family, even to some small extent—because it can never be demonstrated beyond their ability to accept it and live up to it—and we know that we are capable of rising above the battle and retiring in God, our consciousness of God’s presence makes itself felt by bringing some measure of harmony to our community.”

Later this morning I went on an errand run with my first stop at Thieneman’s Nursery where I bought 8 bags of Western Red Cedar mulch. My second stop was a Kroeger’s where I bought some food for myself. My third stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought more food for myself.

When I got home, I hand-weeded around the Astilbe Plants in the Astilbe Garden. Then I spread 5 bags of the Western Red Cedar mulch in the Astilbe Garden.

This afternoon I was once again honored to co-host the European Law of One Telegram Group. I read Ra Session #77 to the group, and some of the questions that they asked me were: “What are the archetypes?” “How do we use the archetypes?” “When I meditate on a problem, how do I know when it is my subconscious mind or my conscious mind that give me the answer?” “What is the nature of the virgin censor as part of the accoutrements used in the Ra contact?” I look forward to our next session when we will be studying Ra Session #78, and we will be getting into a deeper study of the archetypical mind.

Then I went outside and used Whiplash to weed the Striped Lariope Garden in the back yard. Then I hand-weeded around the Striped Lariope. Then I spread two bags of Red Cedar mulch over the Striped Lariope. Then I use Huff and Puff to blow the weeds and mulch off of the rocks on the border of the Striped Lariope Garden.

The Seeds Of Godhood

I am the Spirit of the living Christ, and I greet you in the full consciousness of that divine Love which is the Love of Jesus the Christ.

In your nature you bear the seeds of Godhood. Those seeds have been planted by the great Sower. You may read carefully the parable of the sower and the seeds, for the soil is your own, and it is by desire, prayer, and hope that you may draw unto you that grace which is the Holy Spirit at work within your life.

It is trust in the call to the Spirit that brings that spiritual rain that aids the seeds of Love and growth, that soil enhancer which enriches the sometimes poverty-stricken soil of your consciousness.

Yes, you are gods, but you are very young gods. Trust in the Spirit of Love. Yearn and call for that Spirit, that those seeds which lie within you may flourish and bring forth the fruit of the Spirit within the life.

Yet strive not! Worry not! But seek and, having sought, trust and allow that energy peacefully to work in your midst.

We leave you in that peace of Love divine, 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 Latios channeling for this session comes from October 11, 1986:

(K channeling)

I am Laitos, and I greet you once again, my friends, in the Love and the Light of our infinite Creator. As always, my friends, it is our great pleasure to be among you this evening for the opportunity of working with the instrument as well as with all those of your group, for we appreciate your service, my friends, for the work that you do as vocal channels is, shall we say, near to our hearts, for as you serve the Creator in your role of vocal channels, so you also enable us to serve by speaking through you. It is our pleasure also to greet those of you who are not speaking this evening, but who are contributing by their presence. We acknowledge and appreciate this service also.

At this time, we wish to ask if there are any queries with which we may help? Is there a query at this time?

R: Is this Laitos?

I am Laitos and greet you, my brother. May we answer further?

R: No, I wasn’t ready to form a question. I just asked that. I just wanted to say, “Hello.” It’s been a long time. It’s good to hear you.

I am Laitos, and I thank you for your greeting, my brother, and we also return it to you. Is there another query at this time?

Carla: Hold onto that contact… Never mind… Thank you for waiting. I’m sorry, but I thought I had a list of questions here from someone, but I don’t, and I can’t remember what it was he wanted to know.

I am Laitos, and I thank you, my sister. Is there any further query at this time?

[Pause]

I am Laitos, and again we thank you, my friends, for the opportunity of speaking through this instrument. At this time we will transfer the contact. I am Laitos.

(Carla channeling)

I am Laitos, and I greet you in Love and Light through this instrument. We have greatly enjoyed working with the one known as K, for in this session we have been able to exercise the instrument to its, shall we say, full capacity so that the instrument may begin to have confidence in the limb upon which it sits. Or more properly we should say, since the instrument and each instrument jumps off of the limb each time it channels, that it is the experience of moving out of control that you may hope to get used to. It is a blessed thing to be able to blend our experience with yours at this time.

We can think of each other as the other torn half of a perfect shape, for each entity that you encounter is your other half. Each of you is a miniature of each group to which you find yourself belonging, to your culture and your race, your species and your archetypical souls, and finally the universe itself. Is it any wonder then, that you are all such good channels for each other, sharing with each other one universe in so many wondrously various facets that the picture seldom stales and wonder is but an eye-blink away? We have been urging the new channel to open the mind, to let down the armor, to become vulnerable and without fear so that we may touch her mind with our own. Each of you could use this frame of mind that your mind may be touched by the thoughts and the hands of the Creator in every entity you meet.

In this session Laitos speaks about how they wish to train new instruments that can metaphorically jump off of a tall limb so that they can share the perennial message of seeing the Creator’s Love in everyone. They began by saying we have enjoyed working with K, for in this session we have been able to exercise the instrument to its full capacity, so that the instrument may begin to have confidence in the limb upon which it sits since each instrument jumps off of the limb each time it channels, and it is the experience of moving out of control that you may hope to get used to, for it is a blessed thing to be able to blend our experience with yours at this time. Then Laitos said we can think of each other as the other torn half of a perfect shape, for each entity that you encounter is your other half, and each of you is a miniature of each group to which you find yourself belonging to: your culture, your race, and the universe itself, so is it any wonder that you are all such good channels for each other, sharing with each other the one universe in so many various facets that the picture seldom stales, and wonder is but an eye-blink away, for we have been urging the new channel to open the mind, to let down the armor, to become vulnerable and without fear, so that we may touch her mind with our own, so each of you could use this frame of mind that your mind may be touched by the thoughts and the hands of the Creator in every entity you meet. On June 13, 1974, Hatonn described how they channel the thoughts of the Creator:

The system which this Confederation uses for communication is not a simple computer as you know it but a construct in a timeless dimension of thought. The thoughts of the Creator which those of the Confederation wish to program and the destination intended for these thoughts can be given instantaneously and delivered instantaneously. There are other abilities that go with this communications system. The limitations of this system are those of your letters. We speak to you as though by telephone and you can answer, and we can adjust our information to adapt to yours. The communications which Geller received were only capable of being given within certain preset parameters. If the answer had not been prepared it could not be given.

We are within your time dimension. We are here on a special mission. We are the teaching [inaudible] of a very vast Confederation. The complexity of this Confederation is only an illusion, as each one of us, by means of our awareness, is constantly and completely aware of the ongoing attitudes and progress of each of the other portions of the Confederation. We do this by achieving, through mediation, our awareness of unity with each other, as we are one in the Creator.

We would transfer at this time. I am Laitos.

(K channeling)

I am Laitos, and am with this instrument again. We wanted to say a few final words through this instrument so that she would have the additional opportunity to gain confidence in this process. We wish to remind you, my friends, that we are all bound together by Love in the service of the one Creator, for Love is all that there is. It is that which motivates us as well as that which enables us. It is also that which rewards us, shall we say, as the fruit of our efforts to serve. The message that we bring you is simple, my friends, and yet there are many words to fill that simplicity, and so we strive to ever share that simplicity with you in yet another way. We thank you again for serving with you, my friends—we correct this instrument—for serving with us, for our services are a means of journeying ever closer to the Love and the Light which is all things. At this time, we leave this instrument and your group, my friends, in that Love and Light of the one Creator. Peace be with you, my friends, this day and always. We are known to you as those of Laitos. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “Our purpose is to be the transparency through which the Light—not we, but the Light—performs Its mighty works, to be the instrument through which the Divine can manifest and express Itself on Earth as It does in heaven. We are never the doer; we are never the actor; we are always the vacuum through which Spirit flows. Let us never for a moment believe that by our spiritual endowments we will ever attain personal or spiritual power. There is no room in spiritual living for egotism or for the exercise of personal power. God does not give Its power to another. God does not give Its glory to another. The power, the glory, and the dominion always remain in God; and we are but instruments, humble servants or transparencies, through which that Light may shine.

God can find entrance to the world only through consciousness. There was just as much God in the world before the time of Moses, but it had no effect upon the Hebrew people until Moses opened his consciousness, received the Light, and then was led by God, after which the liberation of the Hebrews was achieved. It was not that there was no God in Egypt—God was there, but there was no consciousness to receive and release God into the world until Moses had his illumination. There had to be a Moses before the Hebrews could be freed.

There was just as much God on Earth before the time of Jesus, but it was only when a Jesus appeared and God-consciousness could flow through Him that the blessings took place—not only for that time but for all time. Had there been no Jesus in the ship at sea, the storm would not have been stilled. True, in time it would have worn itself out, but it would not have stopped so quickly. It was stilled because of the presence of Jesus Christ. What was it in Jesus Christ that stilled the waves? Were the waves stilled because He had power over them, or because He knew the truth which makes people free and could, therefore, stand still and let the omnipresence and power of God perform Its function?

There had to be a Jesus before the power of non-resistance could be made evident. There must always be someone through whom the spiritual Light can shine and who can stand still and bear witness to the presence and power of God as the only Presence and the only Power. Throughout all ages, the illumination of a Moses, an Isaiah, a Jesus, John, or Paul has resulted in the revelation of harmony to all those able and willing to receive it spiritually.”

This afternoon I went outside and pulled up the small, dead Lilac Bush stalks next to the Moss Garden in the back yard. Then I used Whip Lash to weed the remaining Lilac Bushes.

Suffering In The Desert

I am the Spirit of the living Christ, the principle of the full consciousness of Love.

Overnight there has been rain! And where before the earth was parched, now it thirsts no longer.

In the wake of the rain there spring up countless flowers, the fruit of the blessing of water. In human drought the suffering of the desert may be extreme and the thirst unbearable. In these circumstances it is the true pilgrim soul who sits down upon the dusty trail, knowing that there is no water, and who waits patiently for that daily bread which is the rainfall of the Spirit of Christ.

If the time in the desert has been taken hard then the fruit, when rain does come, will be bitter. Take care that in your desert you may remain sweet, serving in consciousness the flowers of Love and beauty so that when the rain does come there are no tares amidst the sweet flowers of your patient joy.

We leave you in peace, both 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 Laitos channeling for this session comes from October 10, 1986:

(K channeling)

I am Laitos, and I greet you once again, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of the infinite Creator. It is our great pleasure to be with you once again for the purpose of working with the new instrument which is beginning to gain a little of what you call experience in the matter of vocal channeling. We are pleased to be working with this instrument and, indeed, with each of you. It is our pleasure and our joy to have the opportunity of sharing this service with you. At this time, we would transfer the contact to the one known as Jim. I am Laitos.

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos and greet each of you again in Love and Light. We have been working with each instrument present as each needs and requests such assistance. We have found that with each instrument there is a firm foundation which has been built on the desire to be of service to others, and this foundation has been elaborated upon by each present as experience in this way of service has been gained. Each instrument, then, upon the same foundation of desire to be of service to others, fashions a structure, a framework, a channel, if you will, through which our contact and other contacts may move. As each of you is unique in the makeup of what you feel is significant in the life experience in general, and in the spiritual seeking in particular, the form that your structure or channel takes is completely unique unto each of you. In this uniqueness, we take our joy, for we are through such individuality able to impress our message which is always and ever the same.

Always do we speak of that great original Thought, that thought of love of the one Creator which binds all of the creation and all entities within it together as portions of that one Creator and that one great Thought of Love. Each of you in your daily patterns and in the larger patterns and rhythms of your incarnation, and, indeed, throughout the many series of incarnations that you have experienced, gather to yourself biases in your thinking and experiences within your being which then serve as resources upon which you draw as you do all that you do, as you think all that you think, and as you serve as vocal channels in this particular manner. Thus, from each we find a great library of resources of experiences, of thoughts, of joys, of sadnesses, of what you call success, and what you call failure, and much, much more that we may utilize in expressing the simplicity of the great Thought of Love, the one Creator as a general principle which motivates all of the many complexities of your illusion and of others.

In this session Laitos speaks of the service of vocal channeling as a means of sharing the one great Thought of the Love of the Creator. They began by saying we have been working with each instrument as each requests such assistance, and we have found that with each instrument there is a foundation which has been built on the desire to be of service to others, and this foundation has been elaborated upon by each present as experience in this way of service has been gained, so each instrument upon the same foundation of desire to be of service to others, fashions a channel through which our contact and other contacts may move, for as each of you is unique in the makeup of what you feel is significant in the life experience, and in the spiritual seeking in particular, the form that your channel takes is unique for each of you, so in this uniqueness we take our joy, for we are through such individuality able to impress our message which is always the same. Now Laitos said we speak of that great original Thought of Love of the one Creator which binds all of the creation and all entities within it together as portions of that one Creator and that one great Thought of Love, so each of you in your daily patterns and in the rhythms of your incarnation, and throughout the many series of incarnations that you have experienced, gather to yourself biases in the experiences within your being which then serve as resources upon which you draw as you do all that you do, as you think all that you think, and as you serve as vocal channels in this manner, for from each we find a library of resources of experiences of joys, of sadnesses, and more that we may utilize in expressing the simplicity of the great Thought of Love, the one Creator as a general principle which motivates all of the complexities of your illusion. On June 2, 1985, Latwii spoke of the nature of the Thought of Love:

Begin first with the foundation of all creation, that is, unity. From this unity the one Creator, the one original Thought of Love, springs all the infinite variety of forms of life and directions for each. Look then to any which seem of a fearful or doubtful nature. See there the Creator that rests as well within your own being. Love that Creator as if It were yourself, for in truth It is. See that which is feared; bathe it in Love, and see it as self, bless it, bid it travel its journey, and then bathe your own being in the Love and the Light of the One. In so doing, you have affirmed the unity of all creation, for in truth that is all that there is.

Thus, as you move through your incarnation you gather a certain kind of momentum, shall we say, that may be seen as the present moment’s culmination of all that you have experienced. This is a very, very rich resource, my friends, and we rejoice in the uniqueness which signifies each of you one from the other, and yet is an emanation of the same Thought of Love. Thus, in the vocal channeling type of service, we feel that it is most important that each instrument feel as much acceptance and Love for its own experiences and identity as it does for those of others, for in this way we are aided in our attempt to unify those many divergent thoughts and experiences which each of your people gathers about it, and as you serve as an instrument in this process and are able to see the love and joy within your own experience, and as you are able to see it as equal to any other’s experiences, then are we more able to utilize that which is yours to offer into this service by means of the transmission of thought. We thank you, my friends, for offering yourselves in the full range and depth and breadth of richness which you have fashioned for yourselves, and which we find a most valuable portion of this manner of serving others.

Then Laitos went on to say as you move through your incarnation you gather that which may be seen as the present moment’s culmination of all that you have experienced, and this is a rich resource, and we rejoice in the uniqueness which signifies each of you one from the other, yet it is an emanation of the same Thought of Love, for in the vocal channeling type of service, we feel that it is important that each instrument feel as much acceptance and Love for its experiences and identity as it does for those of others, for in this way we are aided in our attempt to unify those many divergent thoughts and experiences which each of your people gathers about them, and as you serve as an instrument in this process and are able to see the Love and joy within your own experience, and as you are able to see it as equal to any other’s experiences, then are we able to utilize that which is yours to offer into this service by means of the transmission of thought, so we thank you for offering yourselves in the full range of richness which you have fashioned for yourselves, and which we find a valuable portion of this manner of serving others. On August 12, 1987, Laitos said:

We might suggest that the most efficacious of level of consciousness for this particular kind of transmission of thought concept is that in which the mind is alert, and the body as relaxed as is comfortably possible. The mind needs a kind of flexible perception that is at once sharp or acute and yet pliable, so that the one serving as instrument might become aware of thoughts and while speaking these thoughts be able to allow further thought to enter the mind complex.

At this time we would continue in our attempts to give further exercise to the instrument known as K, for we are quite pleased with the progress that she has made and wish to offer her another opportunity to continue in that progress. Thus, we shall speak a few thoughts through the one known as K. We shall now transfer this contact. I am Laitos.

(K channeling)

I am Laitos, and I greet you once again through this instrument. My friends, it is important to us to know that your desires lie in the direction of service to others, and we see that each of you has evolved upon that chosen path and have proceeded for a great length of your incarnations. Thus, the foundation once begun has been built upon quite sturdily until a structure exists that will withstand the buffeting effects of time and the difficulties that you each encounter upon your journey. The structures that you have built for yourself may also function as a refuge, shall we say, for you from these same buffeting effects [inaudible], for you have built around yourselves [inaudible] protections, armories, as it were, of Light, and thus shielded you continue on your journey, taking refuge in your shelter as needed.

My friends, we urge you not to fear to take refuge in the shelter when you feel it is needed, for rest is a good thing and needful, and it is not well to push yourselves beyond your limits of strength, whether of physical complex or other portions of your mind/body/spirit complex. Nor is it wise to push yourselves beyond the protections of Light which you carry with you at all times. Yes, my friends, to rest and take refuge in the shelter which you have built for yourself of yourself is not giving up. It is not retiring from the journey upon which you have evolved and are proceeding. Rather it is, indeed, a part of the process which, when ignored, can lead to further difficulties and obstacles. Thus, my friends, we encourage you to be merry, to be joyful. Do not concern yourself with great goals or ideas that you must pursue these goals at a certain pace, for what you need will come to you. So, my friends, you need only to take the experiences of your life as they come to you, but not worry yourselves with pursuing them.

At this time, we would leave your group as we have encountered it, in Love and in the Light of the infinite Creator. Be merry, my friends, rejoice with us in the love and the light [inaudible]. We are known to you as those of Laitos. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.

(K channeling)

I am Latwii, and I greet you once again, my friends, in the Love and the Light of the one Creator. It is our great pleasure to be with you once again this evening, for we enjoy working with your group. It is our pleasure to be able to take part in the exercising of the instrument known as K for the purpose of her service as a vocal channel. We are pleased that she had adapted so easily to our vibration, for it is sometimes perceived as a little stronger than some other contacts. At this time we wish also to exercise, as it were, the other members of the group also, and will transfer the contact at this time. I am Latwii.

[Pause]

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and greet you, my friends, in Love and Light through this instrument. We apologize for the delay, but we were having some difficulty making contact with either instrument, for both wished for the other to have the opportunity. We are happy that one was finally able to say yes. We would at this time attempt to answer any queries which may have been raised in the minds of those present this evening. May we attempt to answer any such query at this time?

Carla: There was a perception that I had that I would like to talk to K about. Was it a correct perception?

I am Latwii, and we find that in answering this query we have to tread somewhat close to the Law of Confusion, but we are hopeful that we shall be able to accomplish this high wire act without falling upon the wrong side, shall we say. My sister, you have perceived a portion of that which you feel was in effect, and we would suggest that it might be helpful to converse with the one known as K in order that not only should you be able to share that which you have perceived, but that you should also be able to enlarge that which you have perceived.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you.

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

K: I have a personal question. I’ve been told by a couple of people that they think I am what we call a wanderer, and I wonder if that’s something that you can comment on at all?

I am Latwii, and it seems that we cannot move away from that Law of Confusion this evening. We find ourselves once again face-to-face with that great Law of Free Will which assures each that what is gathered about one in the incarnational pattern shall be useful to such an entity because it has been chosen and experienced through the process of free will choice. That of which you speak is not directly a portion of experience gained during an incarnation, but is that which precedes and perhaps even motivates an incarnation.

We attempt to respond to your query by suggesting that the feelings which you have concerning this subject are those signposts which are of most aid in determining whether this, indeed, be true. We would suggest that in your own meditation and within your own feelings there are contained the tones of feeling that will indicate to you in a clear sense the status or source of which you speak. We do not mean to be obscure, my sister, but we find that in this instance there is yet discovery of your own that might be helpful in laying a foundation that we may enlarge upon perhaps at a later time.

K asked: “I’ve been told by a couple of people that they think I am what we call a wanderer, and I wonder if that’s something that you can comment on at all?” Latwii said we find ourselves face-to-face with the Law of Free Will which assures each that what is gathered about one in the incarnational pattern shall be useful to such an entity because it has been experienced through the process of free will choice, but that of which you speak is not a portion of experience gained during an incarnation, for it is that which motivates an incarnation. Latwii went on to say we attempt to respond to your query by suggesting that the feelings which you have concerning this subject are those signposts which are of aid in determining whether this is true, so we would suggest that in your meditation and within your feelings there are the tones of feeling that will indicate to you the source of which you speak, for we do not mean to be obscure, but we find that in this instance there is a discovery of your own that might be helpful in laying a foundation that we may enlarge upon at a later time. In 99.10, Ra spoke of the use of signposts:

However, as has been noted there are many signposts in the deep mind indicating to the alert adept the more efficient use of catalyst. As we have said, the Logos of your peoples has a bias towards kindness.

May we answer further, my sister?

K: No, thank you.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, my sister, for putting up with our verbiage. May we attempt a further query?

Carla: No, thank you.

I am Latwii, and we are very happy that we have been able not only to join this group this evening, but that we have been able to make our contact known to the one known as K. It is a joy to work with an instrument which is so eager to be the fool. We are also fools, my friends, and find great mirth and happiness in such foolishness, for in this way of being, one may see the creation as, indeed, being a joyful unity in which all may play any part that might be chosen, and these parts may be traded, may be enlarged upon, may be discarded, may be ignored, and may be enhanced in whatever way or manner has meaning to the entity. And, indeed, the play of each entity is that which glorifies the one Creator in a manner which is only possible because each moves as freely and as happily through the creation as foolishness allows.

At this time, we would take our leave of this instrument and this group, rejoicing always in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are known to you as those of Latwii. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “We become the light of the world in proportion to our degree of illumination. Some students attain that illumination quickly, and some wait and wait for the great experience to descend upon them. When it comes, however, it comes suddenly, although the preparation leading up to it may have taken many, many years of studying and meditating during which time we seem to have made little or no progress. From the first moment, however, that we seriously turned to the attainment of realization, our progress has been rapid even though, to outward appearances, imperceptible.

It is like removing a mountain. From the first shovelful of dirt that is carried away, progress is being made in leveling the entire mountain. But a mountain is made up of countless shovelfuls of earth and stone, and not until many of these have been removed is it apparent that any noticeable progress has been made.

So it is that when we are aware of the density of human selfhood, we know that we are moving a mountain of ignorance, and although a beginning is made with our first serious meditation, progress will not be too evident for a long, long time. Then all of a sudden, it seems to burst upon us like a flash of light.

When we have been touched by the Spirit, it is evident in the light shining fourth from our eyes and the glow on our face. Outwardly our life changes, and our relationships change; our nature changes; our health changes; and sometimes even our physical form changes, but only because such changes are the outer manifestation of an inner glory, an inner light, which has been attained by contacting the God within which has once again established us in Eden.”

This morning I went on an errand run with my first stop was at Kroeger’s where I bought some food for myself. My second stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought more food for myself and some flowers for the Wuthering Heights Garden in the front yard of my home. My third stop was at PNC bank where I withdrew some cash from my checking account. My fourth stop was at Speedway Gas where I filled Stanley’s gas tank with premium gasoline. When I got home, I transplanted the flowers into Wuthering Heights Mound. Then I deadheaded the dead blooms of the older flowers. Then I watered them with fertilized water.

This afternoon I went on another errand run where I mailed a donation, at the Middletown Post Office, to a friend of mine who lives in Los Gatos, California. My second stop was at Speedway Gas Station where I filled all of Stanley’s tires to 32 psi. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I bought some staples for the stapler that I bought there this morning.

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

June 8

The Spirit Shakes The Pilgrim

I am the sacred principle of divine Love, the Spirit of the living Christ. I greet you in the name of Jesus the Christ.

This entity seeks purely and asks that the Spirit of Love offer to her a jewel of a thought, a crystallized concept that may enlarge her perception of the day ahead.

Yet we would rather not be the purveyor of perfect jewels which may be toyed with by the mind, fingered with those hands of thought which may soil and defile and then be put away, beautiful, crystalline, and ungiving.

Nay. The Spirit of divine Love is a Spirit which, neatly or less neatly, seizes some portion of the mind and heart of the pilgrim and shakes it hard enough to rearrange the perceptions that have perhaps been too crystallized, too complacent, and too smug, so that the universe opens up and becomes that creation of the Father which is ever being recreated, newly created and beginning the process of creation.

For the Father’s hand becomes our hand, which becomes your hand, which moves then into the world in peace yet in power, power not only to alter but to reconstruct in a more godly manner the elements of thought which lead to a world view and action taken because of the world view.

You look toward an horizon of which you yet know not. Listen, for the voice of the transforming Spirit of Love lies in every expected and unexpected place. As the horizon moves through your day, the untidy, exciting, and disturbing Spirit sheds Its peace everywhere. He who has ears, let him hear.

We leave you in 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 Laitos channeling for this session comes from October 8, 1986:

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos and greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of our infinite Creator. We have been working with the one known as K in anticipation that she might be open to the possibility of initiating a contact this evening. We may suggest to this new instrument that the faculty of analysis is, though still somewhat significant within this new instrument, that which is far less of a difficulty in this new instrument than in most. We would therefore commend this new instrument for its ability to allow the analytical portion of the conscious mind to be put aside temporarily. This is a general faculty which this new instrument has utilized far better than most and though it has at this working presented somewhat of a difficulty in the overall sense, we are very happy that this new instrument has taken so quickly, shall we say, to the reservation of judgment and analysis. At this time, we shall attempt to contact the one known as K, and will transfer this contact at this time. I am Laitos.

(K channeling)

I am Laitos, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are with this instrument again for the purpose of sharing ourselves with you in the mutual service of the infinite Creator. We ask again to remain open [inaudible] so that what we have to say will flow easily through this instrument, [inaudible] for, indeed, such is the work and service of the vocal channel, [inaudible] source, to its destination. My friends, let us be merry and quiet. We may all be quiet is not [really] very difficult [inaudible]. So too may the flow of your lives be with [inaudible] and difficulty, you can better accept that which comes to you [inaudible]. For it is in acceptance that [inaudible] that your path [inaudible] wise even though [inaudible] seeming difficulties, still you may confuse [inaudible] by accepting that which comes to you in going the way that is before you.

At this time, we will transfer the contact again to the one known as Jim. We transfer this contact now. I am Laitos.

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos and greet each of you again in Love and Light. We are very happy with the progress that this new instrument continues to show, and we would congratulate her on her ability to be just as the type of which she spoke. It is heartening to us to be able to work with one who is so receptive to the underlying attitude that supports the vocal channeling process. At this time, we would open this session to those queries which those present may find value in the asking. May we begin with a query?

K: I don’t have a particular question. I wish I did because I feel a sort of confusion, more an unsettledness about what the whole process—I guess I’ve been feeling more nervous, I guess, than I did before, and I don’t understand the way I’m feeling. So, I don’t have a specific question, but do you have any comments on that at all?

I am Laitos, and, my sister, we may reassure you that this feeling is not that which should alarm, for now, as you have become more firmly aware of the nature of this process of becoming a vocal instrument, it is becoming apparent to you both intellectually and emotionally that the process is, indeed, occurring, and that there is the transfer of information proceeding through your instrument. As you begin to realize that this process is ongoing and is a process in which you play a part, but a minor part, you now begin to feel something of what we might describe as a combination of excitement and anxiety. This is a natural response to a process which is quite unlike most experiences which you have had during your life and is one which tends to move toward the center of your being and resonates outward with a feeling of recognition that is not completely accepted by the conscious mind complex as yet.

We can recommend that you simply allow these feelings to move through you, much as you allow the information which we have to transmit move through you, without undue concern as you become more and more familiar with this process and are able to accept its validity completely within your being. As you gather those subjective verifications of which those present have discussed, you will become more comfortable at the emotional level, shall we say, and this shall then become more of an accepted experience for you.

May we answer further, my sister?

K: As you know, I’m still feeling the doubt, what Carla terms as the great conspiracy, the fear that I’m just saying things that are coming into my head from myself… I guess I still wonder, am I  really vocalizing the thoughts that you’re transmitting to me?

I am Laitos, and we would suggest that we in our work with any new instrument also play a part which tends to cause a new instrument to feel that this conspiracy, as it has been called, is indeed just that, and that the new instrument is providing material that is merely from its own resources, the conscious and the subconscious minds. This is due to our, shall we say, experience at working with new instruments and our finding that to be able to initiate contact through a new instrument most easy, and it is well to use more of that new instrument’s experience, both the current experience and previous experiences, and to utilize the new instrument’s manner of phrasing as it communicates in its normal day-to-day life.

This is a process which we find enables a new instrument to speak the words which are given to it, and to allow the contact to remain open long enough that it is slowly being able to gather confidence, and this confidence will continue to build until new concepts are able to be offered through the new instrument. Always, however, do we continue to use, even with new concepts, phrases and words and experiences which the new instrument may be able to provide to aid the communication. Thus, you are partaking in that which seems to bring up the possibility of a conspiracy within any new instrument’s mind. We may assure you, however, my sister, that you have been quite accurately representing our thoughts, using, of course, your own words and means of phrasing.

K asked: “As you know, I’m still feeling the doubt, what Carla terms as the great conspiracy, the fear that I’m just saying things that are coming into my head from myself… I guess I still wonder, am I really vocalizing the thoughts that you’re transmitting to me?” Laitos replied we would suggest that we, in our work with any new instrument, also play a part which tends to cause a new instrument to feel that this conspiracy is just that, and that the new instrument is providing material that is from its own resources, the conscious and the subconscious minds, for this is due to our experience at working with new instruments and our finding that to be able to initiate contact through a new instrument is easy, and it is well to use more of that new instrument’s experience, both the current experience and previous experiences, and to utilize the new instrument’s manner of phrasing as it communicates in its normal life. Laitos went on to say this is a process which enables a new instrument to speak the words which are given to it, and to allow the contact to remain open long enough that it is able to gather confidence, and this confidence will continue to build until new concepts are able to be offered through the new instrument, but we continue to use new concepts, words, and experiences which the new instrument may be able to provide to aid the communication, so you are partaking in that which brings up the possibility of a conspiracy within any new instrument’s mind, yet we may assure you that you have been accurately representing our thoughts by using your words and means of phrasing. On August 1, 1988, Laitos described the way to work with a new instrument:

Again, we would simply recommend that the request be given to us by you that we seek to blend our vibrations in a manner which is more comfortable. We are as inexperienced in blending our vibrations with the instrument as a new instrument is in perceiving and speaking those concepts which we transmit. We are able to ascertain a general vibrational frequency with the necessary anomalies in each instrument, but in many cases are unable to specifically adjust our vibrations to each unique facet of a new instrument, and, therefore, request that each new instrument give us a feedback, shall we say, and request adjustment in such and such a fashion, in order that we may blend our vibrations in a manner which is more comfortable to the new instrument.

May we answer further, my sister?

K: No, that’s very reassuring. Thank you.

I am Laitos, and we thank you, my sister. Is there another query?

Carla: I wonder if you could shed some light on what it is I am perceiving when I say—because I don’t have any words for it—that I can see the energy move when people are channeling in a room? I can see it move from channel to channel and so forth. I don’t actually see a thing, but I feel it in some way that I don’t know how to… I don’t have any words. What is being generated? What is happening?

I am Laitos, and am aware of your query, my sister. As you are aware, your abilities to sense the feelings of others have been present for most of your incarnation. We may suggest that you have utilized a form of this empathic ability in your ability to be able to sense the placement, presence, and occasionally the nature of these contacts. You are much likened to a being which has sent out from its heart tiny filaments of feelingness which permeate the physical and metaphysical space in which you reside at any given time. When there is a movement of energies, especially of the metaphysical nature through this lacework of filament, you are alerted that such is occurring, and it is as though the room in which you dwell has become an extended body for you, so that the movement of energy of the nature of which we generate during these contacts is perceived by you as a movement within your own body or being. Thus, it does not feel precisely as though any particular sense is telling you of such movement, but that instead it is as though your entire body records movement through it much as though you are aware of the beating of your own heart.

Carla asked: “I wonder if you could shed some light on what it is I am perceiving when I say—because I don’t have any words for it—that I can see the energy move when people are channeling in a room? I can see it move from channel to channel and so forth. I don’t actually see a thing, but I feel it in some way that I don’t know how to… I don’t have any words. What is being generated? What is happening?” Laitos said as you are aware, your abilities to sense the feelings of others have been present for most of your incarnation, and we suggest that you have utilized a form of this empathic ability in your ability to be able to sense the presence and the nature of these contacts, so you are like a being which has sent out from its heart tiny filaments of feelings which permeate the physical and metaphysical space in which you reside, and when there is a movement of energies, especially of the metaphysical nature through this lacework of filament, you are alerted that such is occurring, and it is as though the room in which you dwell has become an extended body for you, so that the movement of energy of the nature of which we generate during these contacts is perceived by you as a movement within your body or being, but it does not feel as though any sense is telling you of such movement, but it is as though your body records movement through it much as though you are aware of the beating of your heart. On April 22, 1984, Latwii described the nature of empathic abilities:

The quality of which you speak is one which is uniquely expressed in your being and that is your empathic ability. The one known as Jesus has great appeal to your distortions, and on occasions which honor this teacher such as this particular day, your devotion to His teachings and the praise of His work and life is that quality which is the motivator, shall we say, of the focus of your empathic ability. You experience that which is read and become the entity spoken of. In some degree this quality is available to each who worships, yet the intensity of the experience is dependent upon the devotion to the one known as Jesus, and the sensitivity of the one who worships. Since you have both qualities in great degree, it is possible for you from time to time to experience that of which you have spoken.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: That was very helpful. I don’t need another go at that one. I have a way to understand it now. So, it’s an anomaly, and it’s nothing I have to write about in the book, and that’s good. Okay.

The other thing that I wanted to know is just why have you been stimulating me so strongly? I’ve been getting a lot of conditioning, and I haven’t been getting any words or anything, just a lot of conditioning. Just a keeping the hand in? Every time I asked who it was, it was Laitos. That’s you, right?

I am, indeed, Laitos and have been working with you, my sister, as we have been working with each instrument within this dwelling. Each, however, receives a different kind of assistance, for each is working upon slightly different facets of the same phenomenon. With your particular instrument, we find that it is often helpful to stimulate, as you call it, the more experienced instrument in a manner which will allow it at any future time, as you would call it, to pursue the practice of vocal channeling with increased facility. In your particular case, we are working with the deeper levels of your mind complex in order to aid the transmission of word-by-word thoughts. We are, you might say, at once sensitizing your instrument and stabilizing it as well.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No. I want to thank you for helping me. I’d like to be better very much.

I am Laitos, and we thank you, my sister, for allowing us to work with you in this capacity. Is there another query at this time?

Carla: I do have one more. Something I was thinking about writing in the book, and I’m just not sure whether I should cover it or not. So, any comment would be helpful. People have an incredibe array of ways of registering conditioning. A lot of the ways can scare people, even though they’re harmless. The hair on the legs stands up, or people cry, or their eyes water uncontrollably, or they see a zigzag of green on the left side and a zigzag of blue on the right side. It just goes on and on. I will have to do a lot of listening if I try to write about it. And these things can scare you if you don’t know that it is merely the side effect of another intelligence settling into your metaphysical and physical bodies. What I fear is that people will start manufacturing these symptoms because I told them what they’re supposed to feel. I don’t want to give people troubles that they wouldn’t otherwise have. Could you comment?

I am Laitos, and we may agree that your analysis of the conditioning phenomenon is basically accurate, that is, that any means by which our contact is perceived by an instrument is a means which is a by-product of both our actual contact with the instrument and the instrument’s chosen—and this is usually of a subconscious nature—manner of perceiving such contact. Often an instrument will have a subconscious belief that any contact from entities that are unseen would be one which would cause a certain amount of fear or discomfort or a sensation in this or that location which then would signify such contact had been perceived. These beliefs are often difficult to trace to their origin, for within the subconscious minds of all entities of your density there resides what might be seen as a group consciousness that is aware upon the subconscious level of the ability to contact a great variety of entities which may be removed by distance and density from the one of third density who perceives this contact.

Thus, if such suggestions are made to those who might become new instruments that a contact with those who would speak through such a new instrument might be felt in such and such a manner, this then might indeed influence the manner in which such an instrument would perceive a contact if it were to pursue this type of service in its future. This is not a great difficulty, but could in some cases confuse a new instrument in that it would be consciously overlaying a preconceived idea of how the contact would occur, and this preconceived idea then might for a period of time interfere with the inborn, shall we say, choices or beliefs which the entity had provided for itself in the event that it would choose to serve as a vocal instrument. This confusion would at some point need to be resolved within the entity so that one manner or another of perceiving a contact such as our contact might be set upon as that way which becomes familiar and comfortable to the instrument, and becomes then an aid in its gathering of confidence and proficiency in serving as a vocal instrument.

Carla asked: “People have an incredibe array of ways of registering conditioning. A lot of the ways can scare people, even though they’re harmless. The hair on the legs stands up, or people cry, or their eyes water uncontrollably, or they see a zigzag of green on the left side and a zigzag of blue on the right side. It just goes on and on.

Laitos went on to say if such suggestions are made to those who might become new instruments that a contact with those who would speak through a new instrument might be felt in a certain manner, so this might influence the manner in which an instrument would perceive a contact if it were to pursue this type of service in its future, but this is not a great difficulty, yet it could confuse a new instrument in that it would be consciously overlaying a preconceived idea of how the contact would occur, and this preconceived idea might interfere with the inborn beliefs which the entity had provided for itself in the event that it would choose to serve as a vocal instrument, for this confusion would need to be resolved within the entity so that some manner of perceiving our contact might be set upon as the way which becomes comfortable to the instrument, and it becomes an aid in its gathering of confidence and in serving as a vocal instrument. On November 30, 1984, Latwii shared some forms of conditioning:

The conditioning which we have utilized with you in the past has been a generalized form of making our presence known by means of activating certain areas within the head and neck complex. The type of conditioning which we utilize for the vocal channel is a refinement of this conditioning in that the conditioning is somewhat less physically perceivable. That allows, shall we say, a smoother carrier wave and the appearance of our thoughts upon it is your signal to repeat those thoughts. Of course, it is quite difficult to discern whether or not it is our thought or yours which is appearing within your mind at the moment at which you expect the thought to appear. May we assure you that our thoughts are quite like your own, and by simply speaking those thoughts, you will develop your ability to discern our thoughts and to speak them.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: Yes, I would like to know how you would feel when I finished the rough draft of working with each chapter title, giving any comments of this sort of nature that you might feel appropriate in order that I may, in a book on channeling, use whatever thoughts I find helpful in your comments?

I am Laitos, and we would be happy to aid your effort in whatever way we could without influencing your own free will choices, and we would be happy to present our opinions according to the way in which the information is sought, that is, we shall be happy to speak within the scope of your queries and the work which you have done, without adding to it that which you have not in some way touched upon as a result of your own creative efforts.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: I’ll look forward to working with you. Thank you.

I am Laitos, and we are looking forward to this shared activity as well. Even though this instrument is somewhat dubious as to its ability to serve in this fashion, we shall look forward to working with this instrument as well.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: I merely say to the instrument, “Dooby, dooby, dubious.” [Laughs] Thank you, Laitos.

I am Laitos, and we have been hoping that this instrument would allow us to speak just a few additional words without becoming too concerned about its future task or present confusion. We can assure each present that this activity that is of vocal channeling is one which shall be utilized in an increasing fashion throughout much of the work which is proposed in what you call your future. We are very happy to work with each instrument, as we have mentioned previously, in whatever manner each instrument requests, whether the request is conscious or unconsciously stated.

Therefore, we will seek to bring each instrument, insofar as we are able, to the current limits of its ability and then provide an opportunity to extend those limits in some degree. Thus, the practice and the art of being that known as the vocal instrument is that which is dynamic in that the surrender of the personal will is that which is ongoing and is that which may continue for each instrument at any time that it is willing to open yet more fully to the opportunities which are naturally presented to any entity who seeks to be of service to others, no matter the vehicle chosen, whether it be vocal channeling, healing, or any other service.

We thank each present for allowing us to speak with you this evening and to work with each as vocal instruments. At this time, we feel that it might be appropriate to bring this time of work to its conclusion, and we shall do so, thanking each once again with our whole and happy hearts for allowing us to join you in yet another portion of your seeking. We are known to you as those of Laitos, and we leave you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “If we attain the consciousness of God, we discover that there is nothing but God, God appearing as flowers, God appearing as the clothing on our backs, God appearing as harmonious relationships, God appearing as the perfect functioning of our minds and bodies. Fighting and battling do not bring this to pass. All that is necessary to bring this into experience is for us to put up the sword, to stand still and see the salvation of the Lord.

There is no higher goal attainable on Earth that an inner communication with this Presence that never leaves us or forsakes us. It does not send us food, clothing, or housing. It is food, clothing, and housing. It does not lead us to a fortress or a high tower; it literally is the fortress and high tower. There is no sending of anything; there is no giving of anything, except the giving of Itself.

When the realization of the omnipresence of God is attained, there is freedom from worry, fear, lack, and limitation. If a need appears, we retire within and tabernacle with this Presence, and in due time, It will appear outwardly as the very form necessary to our experience.

As we come to this place in consciousness where we are able to relinquish human might and power, human opinion and judgment, a divine Grace, invisible, yet perfectly tangible to the person experiencing it, takes over. We cannot see this transcendental Spirit, hear It, taste It, touch It, or smell It, yet It is here, and It is now. We feel It, and we know It. When we let go of our human rights or human will or desires—even the good desires—and absolutely resign ourselves to God’s will, It rushes in as if there were a vacuum, and when It takes over, we can feel Its every movement coursing throughout our body, right through the muscles and veins down to the nails. We are one with the rhythm of the universe, and all is well. All that God has is now flowing through us out into this world as a divine Grace, bringing to us all that is ours and bringing us to all those to whom we belong.

So, we learn that we need take no thought for those things of this world; we need not fight either aggressively or protectively. We can stand still and think no thoughts—just be receptive and let God’s thoughts flow to us and permeate our being. And then our work will be accomplished. But I must remind you that Spirit is never working for us. It is working in and through us as we yield and surrender ourselves—even our thoughts—so that God can take over.

Those who have attained even a slight measure of Christhood or spiritual realization are in the world but not of it. They know very little of the sin, disease, tortures, lack, and limitations of human life and are untouched by it tragedies in a personal way They are aware that these things exist, and because of their God-contact they can help others—they feed the multitudes, heal and comfort them—but they themselves do not require supply or comforting or any of the things the human race finds so necessary. The have surrendered personal might and personal desires and have accepted the Love of God, the Grace of God, and the government of God as the all and only in their lives.”

This morning I went outside and transplanted the six Astilbe into the Astilbe Garden in the back yard, and I hand-weeded all of the Astilbe Garden. Then I watered the Astilbe with fertilized water. Then I put netting over the Day Lily Garden on the south side of the garage to keep the deer from eating the Day Lilies.

This afternoon I went outside and hand-weeded the Wuthering Heights Mound. Then I took all of the fossils, geodes, and the center piece that says: “The Earth Laughs in Flowers” by Ralph Waldo Emerson off the area under the bird bath, and I put two bags of topsoil in the same area. I used the garden rake to even out the topsoil, and then I put the fossils, geodes, and center piece back in that area.

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

June 7

Be Glad For Imperfection

Greetings. I am the blessed principle of the truth and peace of the consciousness of Jesus the Christ. I greet you in the Love of Christ.

It may seem to you that you are not getting very far, very fast, along your spiritual path. You may be upset at the lack of symmetry in the arrangement of your daily life, feeling that it is not in conformation with your desires.

And yet with imperfection comes a kind of opening of the spirit to the challenges of the mind. Would you have your outer life so smooth, seamless, and perfect that there is in it no room for revelation of self-consciousness? Be glad for the imperfection that keeps your minds busy.

Peace be with you.

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 Q’uo channeling for today comes from October 5, 1986:

(Carla channeling)

I am Q’uo, and I greet you in the Love and the Light of the infinite One, the Creator of all that there is. We trust that all can hear this instrument’s voice. We find this instrument to have a low supply of energy this evening, and so we are attempting to conserve it by speaking in a quiet voice. It is most pleasurable to be able to speak with you, and we thank you for calling us to you this evening.

It is but a moment for us to move through the densities to you, yet in terms of novelty of experience the moment is momentous for us, for us experiencing third density through third-density senses as you share them with us is a marvelously beautiful thing. We thank you for offering us this service, and we hope we can inspire you in some way with what we say. All topics are a challenge in one way or another. A query from the group concerning the validity of an inspired set of writings certainly has a challenge for us, as we do not wish to seem to judge any source. You must understand that we are offering information to you through an instrument. There was a source offering the one you know as Nostradamus information. It came through him, and this entity recorded it. It may aid in your evaluative process to regard this very devout person as the same kind of instrument as the entity who is channeling our words.

The information is for you to use in order to affect the most spiritual progress. Each individual finds its own aids towards that task. Those things that you find helpful may mean nothing to another. Prophecy may inspire one and leave another with a cold heart and an indifferent curiosity. We hope that these comments aid you in the subjective evaluation of data concerning some aspects of the mystery which surrounds those things which you seem to know within the illusion. It is of course to the mystery that you will turn—that is why you have gathered this evening in light—to seek the truth. Would you have done so had you thought that all that you perceived was so and formed the sum total of all that needs to be known of ultimate causes? We move now to a discussion of prophecy from another point of view, from the point of view of subjectivity versus objectivity.

The topic of this session was the validity of the prophecies of Nostradamus. Q’uo began by saying it is but a moment for us to move through the densities to you, yet in terms of novelty of experience the moment is momentous for us, for us experiencing third density through third-density senses as you share them with us is a beautiful thing, and we thank you for offering us this service, and we hope we can inspire you in some way with what we say, for all topics are a challenge in one way or another, so a query from the group concerning the validity of an inspired set of writings has a challenge for us, as we do not wish to seem to judge any source, but you must understand that we are offering information to you through an instrument just as there was a source offering Nostradamus information, for it came through him, and he recorded it, for it may aid in your evaluative process to regard this devout person as the same kind of instrument as the entity who is channeling our words. Now Q’uo said the information is for you to use in order to affect the most spiritual progress since each individual finds its own aids towards that task, but those things that you find helpful may mean nothing to another, for prophecy may inspire one and leave another with an indifferent curiosity, yet we hope that these comments aid you in the subjective evaluation of data concerning some aspects of the mystery which surrounds those things which you seem to know within the illusion, so it is to the mystery that you will turn—that is why you have gathered this evening in Light—to seek the truth, and we move now to a discussion of prophecy from the point of view of subjectivity versus objectivity. In 65.9, Ra discussed the value of prophecy:

The value of prophecy must be realized to be only that of expressing possibilities. Moreover, it must be, in our humble opinion, carefully taken into consideration that any time/space viewing—whether by one of your time/space, or by one such as we who view the time/space from a dimension, shall we say, exterior to it—will have a quite difficult time expressing time measurement values. Thus, prophecy given in specific terms is more interesting for the content, or type, of possibility predicted than for the space/time nexus of its supposed occurrence.

Begin with the original Thought, the unified, ceaselessly eternal, all-encompassing Thought that created all that there is, creates all that is to become, and yet remains uncreated. The Logos—Love—has no mate but the divine Spirit of Free Will, and its creations are of Itself. Thus, each portion of the creation is a hologram of Love. Each portion of each illusion contains within it all that there is, all truth, all wisdom, and all understanding. Is it any wonder, then, that there is a marvelous amount of redundancy within the objects which make up your illusion? Is it any wonder that the energies of the atom mimic in miniature the very visible heavenly arrangements of planets, solar systems and galaxies? And is it any wonder that there should always be occult or hidden knowledge of future disaster or a global war in days which are in your past—worldwide proportions. For you see, my friends, each of you has an illusion within your consciousness, the illusion to which you are tied by the chemicals and liquids of your heavy physical body. It is designed that one day you shall drop this body, and your consciousness shall once again take wing and move into a more light-filled body.

This is known as the physical death. Subjectively, it is inevitable that the illusion which repeats and repeats patterns within the subjective self should repeat the death experience. We are attempting to say some rather subtle things. Let us briefly recapitulate. We are attempting to say that your discriminative powers are being underrated by questioners who believe another’s work over their own. We have no bias, and, therefore, we do not speak. Were we biased, we might speak. The more we were biased, the more surely we would share our opinions with you, and yet, would you wish to take on faith the biased opinion? We ask you to take responsibility for the information which you assimilate. Digest it well, excreting those things which you do not find spiritually inspiring, and pursuing with a lively curiosity and interest those things which speak to you of mystery. Attempt to be swayed only on interesting technical points, shall we say, by anyone. Allow yourself to be swayed by anyone who can help you frame your questions better, but reserve your own right to perceive the information which comes when questions are asked. Reserve for yourself the right to choose that which feels inspiring to you, for the search for truth is not a cold building up of facts, but a journey to the heart.

Q’uo continued by saying begin with the original Thought, the unified and all-encompassing Thought that created all that there is, creates all that is to become, and yet remains uncreated because the Logos has no mate but the divine Spirit of Free Will, and Its creations are of Itself, so each portion of the creation is a hologram of Love, and each portion of each illusion contains within it all truth, all wisdom, and all understanding, so: “Is it any wonder that there is a marvelous amount of redundancy within the objects which make up your illusion? Is it any wonder that the energies of the atom mimic in miniature the very visible heavenly arrangements of planets, solar systems, and galaxies? And is it any wonder that there should always be occult or hidden knowledge of future disaster or a global war in days which are in your past—worldwide proportions?”  Then Q’uo said each of you has an illusion within your consciousness, the illusion to which you are tied by the chemicals and liquids of your physical body, for it is designed that one day you shall drop this body, and your consciousness shall once again take wing and move into a more light-filled body. Q’uo continued by saying this is known as the physical death, and subjectively, it is inevitable that the illusion which repeats patterns within the subjective self should repeat the death experience, so we are attempting to say subtle things, for we are saying that your discriminative powers are being underrated by questioners who believe another’s work over their own, but we have no bias, and we do not speak, but the more we were biased, the more we would share our opinions with you, so we ask you to take responsibility for the information which you accept, and digest it well, leaving those things which you do not find spiritually inspiring and pursuing those things which speak to you of mystery, but attempt to be swayed only on interesting technical points, and allow yourself to be swayed by anyone who can help you frame your questions better, but reserve your own right to perceive the information which comes when questions are asked, and reserve the right to choose that which feels inspiring to you, for the search for truth is not a cold building up of facts, but a journey to the heart. On January 6, 1985, Latwii described the nature 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.

As you live in your head, so you die to the passion that can burn within you, to the joy that can leap from your heart at simple things. If prophecy is to be inspiring, let its vision make you rejoice at that which is to come, or pray and offer yourself in dedication for any event you feel may come which may be sad. Remember also to take yourself seriously enough to realize that this creation is more and more created by you as co-Creator, for during the third density people become more and more the true captain of the craft which is their consciousness, becoming more and more self-conscious, self-aware, self-sensitive and aggressive towards the environment which previously has been molded by Love alone. More and more the third-density illusion becomes a metaphor for the self as you subjectively see yourselves to be. Thus, at this point in your third density, as it moves into fourth, you find yourselves at bitter odds, torn between compassion and comfort, between patriotism and peace, between Love and anger. And your creation reflects this.

Nothing shall be so crushing to your physical being as your own death; nothing shall be more liberating. And so, you have the subjective model for the new age. My friends, it is no more, no less than the larger life which awaits as you move through the gates of the death of your physical body and are able to release it and transform your consciousness into that of a more Light-filled being. In conclusion, we would say that your planet is, indeed, in travail is in the middle of an ice age, and it has the potential for moderate destruction over a fairly lengthy period of approximately one of your centuries, or a much shorter period of extreme trauma. We will not give you the odds, as they change constantly. However, we will say that it appears that many who dream struggle now to awaken. There is more movement in consciousness upon your planet at this time than any time since we have been working with your people. We do not despair, but hope, for there is a substantial reward for practicing the faculty of hope and faith. Remember that all is subjective. Your consciousness is greater than that of the planet in its delineation and fastidiousness of character. And that which people wish for the environment, the creation about them will reflect. The faculty of hope, of faith, and positive outcomes will create enough Light to vitalize a great deal that is now broken and without life within your planet. Each time you send Light to that entity who Loves you whom you call Earth, the Earth changes. The question was a simple one, and we have commented on Nostradamus. However, my friends, we hope that we have turned your minds to a new consideration of prophecy, one that offers you room for praise and rejoicing, for excitement at new things and for hope in the future. As you mold your consciousnesses, so in echo will your growth mold itself.

Q’uo went on to say as you live in your head, so you die to the passion that can burn within you, to the joy that can leap from your heart at simple things, for if prophecy is to be inspiring, let its vision make you rejoice at that which is to come, or pray and offer yourself in dedication for any event you feel may come which may be sad, but remember to take yourself seriously enough to realize that this creation is created by you as co-Creator, for during the third density people are the captain of the craft which is their consciousness, becoming more self-conscious towards the environment which previously has been molded by Love alone, so the third-density illusion becomes a metaphor for the self as you subjectively see yourselves to be, and at this point in your third density, as it moves into fourth, you find yourselves torn between compassion and comfort, between Love and anger, and your creation reflects this. Then Q’uo said nothing shall be so crushing to your physical being as your own death, and nothing shall be more liberating, so you have the subjective model for the new age, but it is no more or less than the larger life which awaits as you move through the gates of the death of your physical body and are able to release it and transform your consciousness into that of a more Light-filled being, and we would say that your planet is in the middle of an ice age, and it has the potential for destruction over a lengthy period of one of your centuries, or a shorter period of extreme trauma, but we will not give you the odds, as they change constantly, but we will say that it appears that many who dream struggle now to awaken, for there is more movement in consciousness upon your planet at this time than any time since we have been working with your people, yet we do not despair, but we hope, for there is a reward for practicing the faculty of faith, so remember that all is subjective, and your consciousness is greater than that of the planet in its fastidiousness of character, and that which people wish for the environment, the creation about them will reflect because the faculty of faith, and positive outcomes will create enough Light to vitalize much that is broken and without life within your planet, so each time you send Light to that entity who Loves you whom you call Earth, the Earth changes, and the question was a simple one, and we have commented on Nostradamus, but we hope that we have turned your minds to a new consideration of prophecy, one that offers you room for praise for new things and for hope in the future, and as you mold your consciousnesses, so in echo will your growth mold itself. On March 27, 1997, Q’uo described the nature of the faculty of faith:

There are many ways to help awaken that faculty of faith, but we feel that in the mix of things needed to pursue faith paramount is a willingness to jump off into the unknown, and to believe that all is well for no reason except faith alone, for no reason except that deep feeling that there is order, that there is purpose, and that there is a rhythmic way to progress. The more jangled events, and voices, and tempers become, the more the intellect is locked—this instrument would say grid-locked—with the nonsensical nature of such occurrences. The Spirit of Love hopes that such times of crisis will trigger within the seeker the realization that this is another crux at which faith may be invoked.

We greet and send love to each present, and would prepare to leave this instrument, thanking her and you once again. We would now transfer. I am Q’uo.

(Jim channeling)

I am Q’uo, and greet you through this instrument in Love and Light. We are aware that there are some queries which those present might wish to ask, and we would be happy to attempt to respond to those queries through this instrument. We again remind each that we do not wish our words over-weighted, and suggest that each take those which ring personally of truth and use them as they will, leaving behind all those which lack this ring. May we begin now with the first query?

J: Our scientists speculate that great civilizations within what we call our past, our history, have vanished from the face of the Earth due to cataclysmic periods such as pole shifts, one being the civilizations of Lemuria and another being approximately six thousand years ago, or about 4000 BC. Was the latest that I’ve just mentioned, the one at approximately 4000 BC, was there a cataclysmic period at that time, and, if so, was it a pole shift that caused this cataclysmic period?

I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my brother. We look at this time of which you speak and can discern that at a slightly earlier time there was, indeed, the cataclysmic events that resulted in the removal of a large segment of land mass that had been home to a large population of your third-density beings. However, we find that the time was previous to that you have mentioned, and the source of the difficulties was not that of the natural catastrophe as you might call it, but was rather man-made and technological in its nature.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: Were these man-made difficulties—would they have to do with the use of nuclear devices in what we would call Atlantis?

I am Q’uo, and this is in general correct, my brother.

May we answer further?

J: We are told by our scientists that the buildup of ice in Antarctica is becoming almost at a danger level, in that it accelerates or increases the wobble of the Earth about its axis in space and as this wobble increases, the impetus alone as the mass of ice builds up in Antarctica will eventually lead to a pole shift. Does this logic sound correct to you? Can you comment on that?

I am Q’uo, and our opinion in this area is that which sees this possibility as being a possibility if it were only acting in, shall we say, a vacuum. This is to say that there are many other factors to consider, and this factor which you have mentioned is that which is affected by other geophysical phenomena, and even more to the heart the, shall we say, choices that the population of your planet makes and remakes on the metaphysical level of experience. These choices may be seen as a kind of indicator likened unto a thermometer, shall we say. As the choices obtain a more balanced character, the temperature recedes and less heat is given off in a metaphysical sense, to then be transmuted by the physical illusion in such and such a geophysical manifestation.

Thus, there are many, many factors affecting the potential for physical change which your planet exhibits at this time, and it is not possible to predict with any degree of accuracy what the final result might be at any point in your continuum of time and experience.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: Is that to say the collective consciousness of mankind then basically determines the destiny of the planet?

I am Q’uo, and this is a relatively accurate statement, my brother.

May we answer further?

J: We are constantly warned of impending earthquakes, especially on the west coast, which are basically inevitable, our scientists now tell us. Is it possible that through some metaphysical means that we could somehow avert this cataclysm?

I am Q’uo, and we might suggest that this is, indeed, correct and is that formative feature of consciousness which is manifested within your illusion as events which occur in time and space.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: In the history of the Earth, how many times have civilizations been wiped out due to cataclysmic periods or upheavals within the Earth itself?

I am Q’uo, and at this point we would have some difficulty in giving an accurate response, for at previous periods of your planet’s history populations were so few in number within any civilizations, if you would call them that, so isolated one from another, that it would be difficult to say whether one group of entities leaving the physical incarnation by geophysical means would constitute the destruction of a civilization. Of the more obvious or largely populated groupings of entities leaving the incarnation by such geophysical means, we note that there have been two, those of which you have mentioned.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: No, thank you very much. That’s all for now.

I am Q’uo, and we thank you, my brother. Is there another query?

H: We know that the atomic bomb that we have today is very destructive, materially destructive. But yet though—I’ve read—I’ve kind of studied a little bit where certain people on Earth that have been informed by others outside this Earth not to drop the bomb, not to have the battle of doomsday war. I was wondering, does the bomb have something to do with the soul, with the destruction of the soul a possibility? Is there any connection between the two?

I am Q’uo, and we might respond by suggesting that there is the release of energy of such a nature within the process of detonation of one of your nuclear weapons that not only does the physical material of your illusion suffer great disfiguration, but it is possible that the mind/body/spirit complex which might be referred to as the soul, if you will, can also undergo a type of disintegration if there is not the immediate aid of those able to harness this released energy and other energies for the preservation of the integrity of the mind/body/spirit complex.

May we answer further, my brother?

H: I’m confused at what’s a mind/body/spirit complex again?

I am Q’uo, and we have responded…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Q’uo, and am once again with this instrument. Our choice of terminology was that most familiar to this instrument, and we apologize for using that which was not familiar to your own experience. The concept of the soul being affected by the release of the nuclear energy is that which we have described as the potential for the disintegration of those major components of what you have called the soul, and that is a being that is complex, a being which experiences the creation by means of utilizing the mind, the body, and the spirit. The effect of the release of the nuclear energy is to cause a disintegration, or an unbinding, shall we say, of mind, of body and of spirit, each from the other, so that the unified joining of them called a soul in your terms is no longer able to perceive experience and to focus conscious awareness.

Thus, there is the necessity for the healing or maintenance of the integrity or unity of these complexes during the release of nuclear energy. The maintenance of such integrity is the honor and duty of those who watch over the progress of your planet’s populations, and these entities have moved in this service in previous times of your planet’s experience in order that no soul might lose its integrity through the release of nuclear energy.

H asked: “I’m confused at what’s a mind/body/spirit complex again?” Q’uo said our choice of terminology was that most familiar to this instrument, and we apologize for using that which was not familiar to your own experience, so the concept of the soul being affected by the release of nuclear energy is that which we have described as the potential for the disintegration of those major components of what you have called the soul, and that is a being that is complex, a being which experiences the creation by means of utilizing the mind, the body, and the spirit, for the effect of the release of the nuclear energy is to cause a disintegration of mind, of body and spirit, each from the other, so that the unified joining of them called a soul is no longer able to perceive experience and to focus conscious awareness. Now Q’uo said there is the necessity for the maintenance of the integrity of these complexes during the release of nuclear energy, and the maintenance of such integrity is the honor and duty of those who watch over the progress of your planet’s populations, and these entities have moved in this service in previous times of your planet’s experience in order that no soul might lose its integrity through the release of nuclear energy. In Session 26.22-.23 Ra explained how they aided the victims of the atomic bombs that were dropped at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan at the end of World War II:

I am Ra. The use of intelligent energy transforming matter into energy is of such a nature among these weapons that the transition from space/time third density to time/space third density, or what you may call your heaven worlds, is interrupted in many cases.

Therefore, we are offering ourselves as those who continue the integration of soul, or spirit complex, during transition from space/time to time/space.

Questioner: Could you please give me an example from, let us say, Hiroshima or Nagasaki of how this is done?

I am Ra. Those who were destroyed, not by radiation, but by the trauma of the energy release, found not only the body/mind/spirit complex made unviable, but also a disarrangement of that unique vibratory complex you have called the spirit complex, which we understand as a mind/body/spirit complex, to be completely disarranged without possibility of re-integration. This would be the loss to the Creator of part of the Creator, and thus we were given permission not to stop the events, but to ensure the survival of the, shall we say, disembodied mind/body/spirit complex. This we did in those events which you mention, losing no spirit, or portion, or holograph, or microcosm of the macrocosmic Infinite One.

May we answer further, my brother?

H: Okay, the Nostradamus, in his prophecies, is it true that he foresaw maybe the doomsday wars, the nuclear holocaust? Did he actually foresee that?

I am Q’uo, and the entity of which you speak was one to whom information was transmitted in the form of visions which then this entity sought to transmit or capture in words that would then be preserved for use by future, as you call them, generations. This information which was transmitted and perceived as the series of visions was one point of viewing of one potential within the consciousness of this particular planetary influence. It is by no means the only potential. It was not then nor is it now alone in the possibility of occurrence, and in fact is that which is constantly formed and reformed by the choices of the populations of your planet, this in the metaphysical sense.

May we answer further, my brother?

H: No further questions at this time.

I am Q’uo, and we thank you for your queries, my brother. Is there another query at this time?

J: The asteroid belt, was that once a planet which was destroyed—which was once destroyed by the use of nuclear weapons.

I am Q’uo, and this is correct, my brother.

May we answer further?

J: Were entities who performed the service of healing of the mind/body/spirit complexes able to reunite these basic elements of the soul at that time?

I am Q’uo, and this is correct, my brother, though due to the magnitude of the destructive effects of that planetary influence and its previous experience, the healing needed to wait for a portion of what you would call time in order that the entities who had experienced this destruction might first as a group experience the immediate aftereffects and then become available for healing.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: When the bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, how long in terms of time did it take for the healing process of those mind/body/spirit complexes which were basically disengaged or dissimilated at that time?

I am Q’uo, and the healing is continuing for these entities of which you speak. The period of time is somewhat difficult to translate into your terms, for their current experience is within those realms where time is perceived in a far different fashion and measured quite differently than it is perceived and measured within your own.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: This separation of the mind/body/spirit complex, does this occur only, shall I say, at a ground zero type situation in a nuclear explosion, or is a large percentage of those entities which ultimately die as a result of a nuclear explosion, and does the same separation take place in those entities?

I am Q’uo, and we find that, in general, as you would say, the most probability of the disintegration of the mind/body/spirit complex would be at that location you have described as ground zero, and would decrease as the distance from this point increased.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: Has there ever been a case in which the complexes of mind/body/spirit was beyond reorganization, as it was totally destroyed as a result of the nuclear device?

I am Q’uo, and we cannot answer as to yes or no, for we have not experienced all that there is to experience, and are unable to speak of that with which we are not familiar as either having observed or experienced such an event. We do not say that such is impossible. We can suggest that such is not probable, for always there are those who serve as observers, teachers, and guides who take the necessary care for the preservation of those under their guidance.

We are aware at this time that it would be helpful if we concluded this contact, for there is a difficulty among one who is not comfortable at this time. We then will suggest that this meeting be brought to a close. We thank each of you for allowing our presence, and we look forward to each such gathering in joy and in praise of the desire to seek more of that which you call the truth. We are known to you as those of Q’uo. Adonai, my friends. We leave you in the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “A material world is built upon the unstable foundation of human hopes and fears, but the entire material temple dissolves when we acknowledge that, because the Lord is our shepherd, we need not seek anything, but glory in the truth of God that has fulfilled Its own being as our individual being on Earth. God is Spirit, and when our prayer and our concerns are for spiritual realization, we leave the material concept of the world alone and begin to understand that the world of Spirit is a different world, a new world in which God’s grace is our sufficiency in all things.

How shall we speak of Grace? It has been called the gift of God, but God has only one gift, the gift to us of Itself. With our human wisdom, we cannot know what God’s Grace is, and as long as we try to turn and twist it into human language and human meanings, we will never be able to understand God’s unadulterated spiritual Grace.

God’s Grace unfolds in ways that we know not of, in unthought-of directions and in forms that we never knew were on Earth or, if we did know about them, never dreamed that they would ever become a part of our experience. In each case, God’ Grace is an individual unfoldment. It will not appear to a person in the form of roses if they do not like roses, nor will it appear to a person as a ticket around the world if they would find greater fulfilment in a little cottage by the sea or up in the mountains. God’s Grace flows as spiritual activity, but it governs our human affairs in ways that we could not possibly outline or picture.

As we ponder this subject of Grace, there develops within us a sense of independence of the thoughts and things of the world. We begin to feel that if there were not a person in our life to bring anything to us, nevertheless, by morning everything needful would be provided and this through the contemplation of God’s Grace.”

When I went outside this morning to feed the fish and water the baskets of flowers around the fishpond, I discovered that the fountain was not running, and about 150 gallons of water had, somehow, left the fishpond with no trace of water around the fishpond. So, a little later I went outside and used a box cutter to remove the duct tape from the tube that connects the motor to the tube that the water runs through to create the fountain. Then I dried the motor and the tube that connects the motor to the tube that the water runs through to create the fountain. Then I put super glue on the tube that connects the motor to the tube that the water runs through to create the fountain. Then I used duct tape to connect the motor to the tube that the water runs through to create the fountain. Then I use the garden hose and sprayer to clean the filters in the skimmer. Then I used the garden hose to refill the water in the fishpond to the proper level so that the fountain shoots to the edge of the fishpond without going out of the fishpond. Then I threw a couple of cups of AquaSafe into the water to neutralize the chlorine in the fresh water.

At 11 am this morning I was once again honored to be a guest on Jonathan Tong’s Seattle Law of One Q&A session. Some of the questions that I was asked were: “How do we use catalyst?” “How can we use small ways of being of service?” “How does the adept’s cycle work?” “Do I know anything about Edgar Cayce?” “What was the purpose if the civilization of Atlantis?” and “What is the purpose of wars?” This was a special gathering as many of us stayed after the recording stopped to discuss personal problems like Elaine and her husband have, like Bee and her husband have, and like Morris and Linda have. I also talked about my problem of being a breaker that took me 68 years to solve.

This afternoon I went outside and removed the dying Pansies from their pot on the front porch of my home and transplanted them on the right side of the garage. Then I transplanted a tray of Impatiens in one of the pots, watered them with fertilized water, and covered them with netting to keep deer from eating them. Then I transplanted a tray of Impatiens that I have been keeping on the front porch, into the two Impatiens Gardens on the south side of the Flower Fall Mound.

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

June 6

The Consciousness Of Love

I am the Holy Spirit to which this child prays; that principle of Love which greets you in the name of Jesus the Christ.

We of the principle of the consciousness known as Love are many, for there are many perceptions of Love, and each vibration requires its own Comforter. And so, we speak in many tongues, whether it be in language or in emotions.

Indeed, the consciousness of Love is a feeling more than a word, since feelings are pictures brought forth from deep places, their complex bouquet undisturbed by the prying fingers of small words.

May that principle which you seek and which you offer be all in all to you as you extend your legs in running the race of life experience during this day. May you turn not to the small and petty concerns which are so easily spelled out in words to the exclusion of the glorious remembrance of Love.

Peace be with you.

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 got myself ready for the day. Today the Laitos channeling comes from October 3, 1986:

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are once again privileged to be able to join your group this evening. We greatly enjoy the opportunity to work with the one known as K in order that she might continue the process of becoming a vocal instrument.

We have listened with appreciation and affection to the conversation which you have shared prior to this meditation, and we wish to express our gratitude at the careful consideration of this kind of service by each present. It is quite true that it is not a difficult service to perform, but that there is, indeed, a certain kind of caring that is difficult to find in many who would seek to perform this service. It is the desire to be of service to others and to do so in a manner which serves to the best of one’s abilities, that is the most appropriate motivator, shall we say, in our opinions for this service.

For many of your people it is a service which seems somewhat glamorous, for it partakes of that which is unseen and yet felt by many of your people to be a portion of the underlying truth of the illusion that they see as the daily life. To many it speaks subtly yet convincingly of a greater reality, shall we say, that towards which all move in heart and mind, and to give voice to such a power seems to many to be that which must be reserved for the few. And yet in truth we say to you that each in some way contacts this same source of energy and power each day of the incarnation and chooses in one fashion or another to channel that power in a manner which may or may not be conscious, may or may not be understood, and yet surely is a reflection of the One through a portion of the One.

In this intensive session those of Laitos continue to share the process of vocal channeling. They began by saying we have listened with appreciation to the conversation which you have shared prior to this meditation, and we wish to express our gratitude for the careful consideration of this kind of service by each present, for it is true that it is not a difficult service to perform, but that there is a kind of caring that is difficult to find in many who would seek to perform this service, and it is the desire to be of service to others and to do so in a manner which serves to the best of one’s abilities, that is the most appropriate motivator for this service. Laitos went on to say, for many of your people it is a service which seems glamorous since it partakes of that which is unseen and yet felt by many people to be a portion of the underlying truth of the illusion that they see as the daily life, so to many it speaks subtly yet convincingly of a greater reality towards which all move in heart and mind, and to give voice to such a power seems to many to be that which must be reserved for the few, yet each in some way contacts this same source of energy and power each day of the incarnation and chooses, in one fashion or another, to channel that power in a manner which may or may not be conscious, may or may not be understood, and yet surely is a reflection of the One through a portion of the One. On October 14, 2023, Q’uo spoke of the nature of a greater reality:

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.

You who have gathered here this evening have chosen a more specific means by which this transmission of the power of what we have called Love may be accomplished. It is no more or less good or worse than any other choice. It is simply a choice which will be useful to some and less useful to others. That it is offered in the desire to be of service to others is that which truly matters, shall we say. Thus, this desire is that in which we rejoice this evening and we share it with you.

Then Laitos said you who have gathered here this evening have chosen a specific means by which this transmission of the power of Love may be accomplished, but it is no more or less good or worse than any other choice, for it is a choice which will be useful to some and less useful to others, yet it is offered in the desire to be of service to others and is that which truly matters, for this desire is that which we rejoice in this evening, and we share it with you. On April 12, 1991, Q’uo described the power of Love:

As one becomes aware of the relationship between the Creator and the creation one sees that the power of Love is that which moves all things and all entities in patterns or in rhythms, cycles, and in seasons, that this enabling function of Love may be hindered or blocked by thoughts and attitudes that express themselves in behaviors that stop up or block the free flow of Love. This alteration of the power of Love in any life pattern allows for a more varied experience, for it would not be thought of by any entity who lived in perfect harmony with Love to stop its movement.

However, as each entity within the creation desires to serve the Creator by providing experience that allows the Creator to know Itself, so then does each entity alter to some degree this basic motivational power of Love. Altering or distorting the flow of Love causes the necessity for a balancing action that will once again allow the Love to move freely. This process of blocking and unblocking the flow of Love is that process which you call experience or evolution. This is a simplistic description but one which we feel is basically accurate for each portion of the Creation. Thus, as you pray and seek to intercede, or call for another’s intercession on behalf of one you feel is in need, you ask that the power of Love to move freely be restored in an area where it has been blocked.

At this time, we would attempt to make our vibrations known to the one known as K, and after a few moments in which any needed adjustment may be made by mental request by the one known as K in order that our vibrations not be uncomfortable, we should then speak a few words through the one known as K. We shall now transfer this contact. I am Laitos.

(K channeling)

I am Laitos. I greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. I am with you now in order that you may understand what it is that we are doing.

We are adjusting our vibrations to this instrument.

We are here [inaudible] continue this contact.

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos, and I am again with this instrument. We are very pleased that we have been able not only to make contact with the one known as K, but to reestablish that contact on the two occasions that she felt she had lost this contact. We feel that there have been great expansions of this new instrument’s abilities, and would continue to encourage this new instrument to persevere with moving further and further out on the limb so that the contact might continue and further concepts be generated and it be truly found that the limb has no end.

At this time, we would pause in this working in order that any queries that might be upon the minds of those present might be asked. May we respond to any queries at this time?

Carla: I’ll give K time to think, and ask a question of my own. I’m writing a book on channeling. Not on the mechanics of channeling, but on every aspect of it that I can think of that might be helpful to people who want to channel, and people who are channeling. Any comments or suggestions that you have would be appreciated.

I am Laitos, and, my sister, we are aware of the work upon this subject that you have undertaken, and in our way would choose to show our appreciation of this effort by observing that the process which you are utilizing in writing this book upon the topic of channeling is a process of channeling itself, and it is one in which you are, again in our opinion, utilizing the most valuable tool of the instrument, and that is the personal experience of the instrument itself, for to speak upon any topic it is quite helpful not only to be familiar with the topic in an intellectual fashion, but to have made such a close identification with the topic that one truly draws it from the depths of one’s own experience and responses to that experience. Thus, the work takes on a life that is obviously of its own and is represented in a fashion which then is dynamic and in motion within the author so that the words might then convey this life force that is shared without reservation. That, in our experience and opinion, is the heart of any channeling process, and we rejoice at the work which you have chosen to share in your own way.

Carla asked: “I’m writing a book on channeling. Not on the mechanics of channeling, but on every aspect of it that I can think of that might be helpful to people who want to channel, and people who are channeling. Any comments or suggestions that you have would be appreciated.” Laitos replied by saying we are aware of the work upon this subject that you have undertaken, and we would choose to show our appreciation of this effort by observing that the process which you are utilizing in writing this book upon the topic of channeling is a process of channeling itself, and it is one in which you are utilizing the most valuable tool of the instrument, and that is the personal experience of the instrument itself, for to speak upon any topic it is helpful not only to be familiar with the topic in an intellectual fashion, but to have made such a close identification with the topic that one draws it from the depths of one’s own experience and responses to that experience, so the work takes on a life of its own and is represented in a fashion which then is dynamic and in motion within the author so that the words might convey this life force that is shared without reservation, for in our experience this is the heart of any channeling process, and we rejoice at the work which you have chosen to share in your own way. On March 5, 2016, Hatonn explained the basic process of the channeling process:

The instrument partaking in the channeling process begins at a certain level of experience, shall we say. As the experience is gained, there is more and more of that which comes through the instrument that is unknown in a conscious fashion, in some cases, even the subconscious fashion, to the instrument. It is a matter of the experience plus, shall we say, the foolhardiness or willingness of the instrument to make a fool of itself by opening to information which it is unaware of, and allowing that information to move through it without analysis as to where it came from or whether it makes sense.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No, but I’d appreciate your help if you would please tell whoever is channeling this to me to use better English. I will too.

I am Laitos, and we can assure you, my sister, that the message has been received. Is there another query?

K: I have a question. The contact feels to me very tenuous and faint. I don’t know if it gets stronger, but I was getting the feeling that I was supposed to be listening for it, somehow. Do you have any comments on that or suggestions as to how I might do that better?

I am Laitos, and we might comment by suggesting that, again in our opinion, you are perceiving our contact with unusual clarity for a new instrument, for, indeed, in the beginning of this practice it is usual that a tenuous feeling be associated with the perception of our thoughts. As you are able to quiet the inner conversations, the over-nervousness and any doubts that you may carry with you into the meditative state, you will discover that the signal, shall we say, seems amplified, and will eventually be as easily perceivable as any of your own thoughts. In the beginning of this practice, we can suggest none too frequently that the new instrument simply be patient and continue with the process as if it were practicing its scales upon the piano. There is a certain amount of exercise that is necessary in order to develop concentrative muscle, shall we say.

May we answer further, my sister?

K: When I start to feel like I’m losing the contact, is there anything that I can do at that point, other than to just continue to quiet my mind?

I am Laitos and am aware of your query, my sister. We again would suggest that the quieting of concerns, thoughts, and analysis is the most helpful thing that one might do in order to again begin to perceive the thread of the contact, and to, once having perceived it, await the next concept or phrase. Again, we might characterize this state of mind as a simple and quiet confidence, realizing that one is partaking in an event which is, as it has been observed, actually occurring.

May we answer further, my sister?

K: As you were contacting me during these practice sessions, is there a way that I would know when you have finished transmitting to me?

I am Laitos, and this query, my sister, we find quite easy to answer, and do not need to be facetious, but we will tell you when we are finished by suggesting that we are finished.

May we answer further, my sister?

K: No, thank you, that is very helpful.

Carla: You’re such a wag.

I am Laitos, and we thank you, my sister.

K: I appreciate your sense of humor.

Carla: None from me—thank you, Laitos.

I am Laitos, and we are happy that we have been able to share a bit of the humorous nature of these beginning sessions, for the ability to laugh at oneself and the process of learning any new experience is an attitude which greatly enhances the learning of that new skill or experience.

We at this time would attempt not only to transfer our contact once again to the one known as K, but would attempt to close this contact through the one known as K, and in this manner she will know that she has finished the contact. I am Laitos.

(K channeling)

I am Laitos, and I am with this instrument again. We find your humor to be refreshing as well. We thank you for this as it is enjoyable to us. We wish now to say that this instrument is progressing satisfactorily. And we will now close this contact. I am Laitos.

(Carla channeling)

I am Laitos, and I greet you once again through this instrument in Love and Light. We were attempting to recontact the one known as K, and then the one known as Jim. However, we found each to be somewhat puzzled.

We wished not to give any further message except to note to the one known as K that it is well to observe carefully when the naming is done, to discern the sentiment of Love, peace, joy, Light, and blessedness in some close conjunction with greetings and farewells, for we do not wish to leave any with a name alone, but rather with the name of that principle, as this instrument would say, in whose service we come to you, for we are but messengers, bearing news, news of complex things and news of the very simple things that underlie the complexities. We greet and bid farewell of that which is simple, that which is unified, that which we worship and are—Love and Light.

If those concepts do not rise in your consciousness, challenge immediately, my sister, for the source is questionable in that event. That is, it is certainly not necessary to question that it is not the Confederation which speaks. Thus, settling into the night and enjoying this added few moments to hear the sounds of your katydids, we do bid you farewell in the Love and in the Light of our infinite Creator. We are known to you as those of Laitos. Adonai.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “There is a way of living, not by might, nor by power, but by the grace of God. However, when we decide what it is we want and how we want it, when we seek to educate God and tell God how God should operate, we set ourselves up as possessing greater wisdom and intelligence than God, and thereby block the flow of God’s presence.

If we understand the nature of God, we will never remind God of anything that concerns us or our affairs, and we shall never be tempted to usurp the prerogatives of the all-knowing Intelligence and Love which “knoweth that we have need of all these things.”

Is asking God for things an indication that we understand God to be Intelligence and Love, or do not such requests imply that we believe God is withholding something from us? Can we really be concerned about food, clothing, or anything in this world when we have the direct assurance that God knows that we have need of all these things? Did not Jesus instruct us to take no thought for our life, for what we should eat, or what we should drink, nor yet for our body, what we should put on?

Why do we seek for bread, wine, or water, for clothing, companionship, money, or capital when the promise is that in God’s presence there is fullness of life, and that it is God’s good pleasure for us to share God’s riches. Because of the infinity of God, all that is, is already omnipresent. It is impossible for God to give or send us anything. God does not provide an apple or an automobile. God is the apple; God is the automobile—God appears as all things.

There is no such thing as God and. It is for that reason that the only demonstration there is for us to make is the demonstration of God’s presence. In demonstrating God’s presence, we demonstrate life eternal, an infinity of supply, peace, joy, protection, and safety, In God’s presence, we have God appearing as good, as clothing, as housing. But there is one requirement: to have God’s presence—not meaningless affirmations or the mouthing of deep truths of Scripture, but God’s presence.

Where God is, fulfillment is, and through the realization of Omnipresence, all things already exist. God is forever functioning to maintain and sustain the infinite and eternal nature of this universe appearing as God. God appears as the daily manna: I am the bread of life—not I am it; and this I within appears on our table as daily bread. It appears outwardly as transportation or clothing. In the beginning, before time began God give Itself to us, and in that giving, infinity was bestowed upon us.”

Then I went outside and weeded the Astilbe Garden with Whip Lash. Then I blew the weeds out of the Astilbe Garden with Huff and Puff.

This afternoon I made an errand run with my first stop at The Home Depot to buy two bags of topsoil. My second stop was at Thieneman’s Garden Center to buy some Garden Impatiens. My third stop was at Feeder’s Supply to buy some cat food and some bird seed. My fourth stop was at Frank Otte’s Garden Center to buy 6 Astilbe. My fifth stop was at Kroeger’s to buy some food for myself. My sixth stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market to buy a small container of Dahlias and some butter. My last stop was at Walgreen’s to pick up a prescription and some Tylenol.

When I got home, I hand-weeded the Ruins Mound Garden.

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

June 5

Experience The Heaven Within

I am of the Light, and my Spirit lies within all. And Love abounds in every portion of creation.

Let not appearances make you feel betrayed by the Creator, but make this your prayer, “Heavenly Father, grant us grace this day to know and to do Thy will with single-heartedness, joy and faith,” never doubting that the Spirit of unconditional Love, as promised, remains with each seeker until the end of the age, until the end of creation. And yet even then we shall continue to be the Spirit of the infinite Creator as new creations emerge.

See this infinite portion of yourself that is one with us as the principle of unconditional Love. And allow that vision to be your prayer today: “Heavenly Father, let me be of the principle of infinite Love.

Let me react to all stimuli in the Love of God in Jesus the Christ.” This is your choice, day by day. We urge you to make it each and every day, that you may experience the heaven within; the peace and the joy of knowing that you are not alone but supported in all that you do.

We leave you in the Love and the peace of Jesus the Christ, both 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 Laitos channeling comes from October 2, 1986:

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. We are again most honored to be asked to join your group this evening in order that we might, as is our way, work with a new instrument who seeks in her own way to be of service through vocal channeling. As always, we remind the new instrument that while the contact is being sought, and while it is experienced, it is well to reserve analysis and judgment of process and content in order that both may move in their own way through the instrument and thus exercise it that it comes to know that vibration which signals the contact and that feeling of surrender that allows the contact to move through the instrument.

We are always hopeful that simple instructions such as these will suffice to allow an instrument to serve as an instrument, for it is not a difficult task, and further complexity in explaining the nature of such contact is, in truth, unnecessary unless the questioning mind of a new instrument might be put to rest by further words. This is also acceptable, yet is not necessary when looking at the experience of vocal channeling itself, for the world in which you move and the incarnations which are your vehicles for movement through this world of illusion is one which by its very nature is formed of complexities. Yet if any portion of the complexity of your daily round of activities is followed, the source will be found to be that which is quite simple. The Love of the Creator enables all portions of the creation to move in their various dances and to play the parts that allow experience to ensue and allow contemplation of that experience to distill from it the crystal seeds of thought that are love in a simple form.

In this session Laitos wanted to work with K, a new instrument, and help her to expand her ability to be a vocal channel. They began by saying we are honored to be asked to join your group this evening in order that we might work with a new instrument who seeks to be of service through vocal channeling, and we remind the new instrument that while the contact is being sought, and while it is experienced, it is well to reserve analysis and judgment of the process and content in order that both may move in their own way through the instrument and exercise it that it comes to know that vibration which signals the contact and that feeling of surrender that allows the contact to move through the instrument. Then Laitos said we are always hopeful that simple instructions such as these will suffice to allow an instrument to serve as an instrument, for it is not a difficult task, and further complexity in explaining the nature of such contact is unnecessary unless the questioning mind of a new instrument might be put to rest by further words, so this is acceptable, yet it is not necessary when looking at the experience of vocal channeling, for the incarnations which are your vehicles for movement through this world of illusion is one which by its very nature is formed of complexities, yet if any portion of the complexity of your daily round of activities is followed, the source will be found to be that which is simple, for the Love of the Creator enables all portions of the creation to move in their various dances and to play the parts that allow experience to ensue and allow contemplation of that experience to distill from it the crystal seeds of thought that are Love in a simple form. On July 5, 1981, Hatonn spoke of the Love of the Creator:

My sister, we would answer you by saying that to seek the Love of the infinite Creator in each moment of your life is the greatest service and the greatest learning that can be accomplished upon your plane, for it is the lesson of this dimension to discover the Love of the Creator within all that is experienced within the self, within the life, within the family, within the community, within each activity, each experience and there is, shall we say, an infinite amount of time to discover this Love.

At this time, we would attempt to make our presence felt to the one known at K. She will begin to feel a certain sensation which will signal to her our presence. At this time, we shall attempt to transfer this contact and speak not only our identification through the one known as K, but also include a few simple phrases that might allow this new instrument to gain some confidence as she is able to perceive that which we transmit. Again, we suggest the reservation of all analysis and the simple speaking of those thoughts and concepts as they become apparent with the mind complex. We shall now transfer this contact. I am Laitos.

(K channeling)

I am Laitos… and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of the infinite Creator. We are happy to be able to be here at this time.

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos, and am again with this instrument. We are, indeed, overjoyed to be able to speak those words through the one known as K that we were indeed able to speak. We are very happy with the progress of this new instrument and can only encourage her to continue in that attitude that might best be described as a combination of bravery and foolhardiness, for to speak words which seem to exist in a vacuum, shall we say, unconnected to others of their kind, puts a new instrument in the position of moving further, it would seem, out upon a limb with no assurance that the limb will support one’s weight, or that the words spoken will be followed by others which together shall make what you would call sense. This is the heart of the nature of the vocal channeling process, for it is not possible for most of the population of your planet to receive a complete message which then would be dictated line by line, for the receiving mechanism of the people of your planet has not been developed to that degree at this point in the evolution process. Thus, in order to utilize the capabilities of the receiving instruments, we must provide small portions of a larger message and follow each portion with another portion of roughly equivalent length in order that the entire message may eventually be transmitted.

This makes the process somewhat more, shall we say, challenging for any instrument, and most especially for the new instrument. Yet it is well that such a challenge be presented, for the opportunity to serve as such an instrument and to be of service to others in this manner is one which requires to be the fool, shall we say, in many, many instances where one shares that of greatest value with others who may or may not share similar views. Thus does any entity who seeks to serve others by sharing what is within the heart without reservation call upon that quality of foolishness that does not ask for any return for what is given, nor does it ask that what is given be accepted or acted upon. All that is asked is that the opportunity to serve be available. Thus, we encourage the one known as K to persist in this foolishness, if we may call it that, for within the illusion which you find yourselves now placed, nothing may be known with certainty, for that which is the foundation of all creation and inspiration is shrouded in mystery and hidden from all but the most persistent inward-seeking eye.

Now Laitos elaborated on how they wished to work with K to help her become a better vocal channel. Laitos said we are happy with the progress of this new instrument and encourage her to continue in that attitude that might best be described as a combination of bravery and foolhardiness, for to speak words which exist in a vacuum unconnected to others of their kind, puts a new instrument in the position of moving further out upon a limb with no assurance that the limb will support one’s weight, or that the words spoken will be followed by others which shall make sense, and this is the heart of the vocal channeling process, for it is not possible for most of the population of your planet to receive a complete message which would be dictated line by line, for the receiving mechanism of the people of your planet has not been developed to that degree at this point in the evolutionary process, so in order to utilize the capabilities of the receiving instruments, we must provide small portions of a larger message and follow each portion with another portion of equivalent length in order that the entire message may eventually be transmitted. Now Laitos said this makes the process more challenging for any instrument and especially for the new instrument, yet it is well that a challenge be presented, for the opportunity to serve as such an instrument and to be of service to others in this manner is one which requires one to be the fool in many instances where one shares that of greatest value with others who may or may not share similar views, yet does any entity who seeks to serve others by sharing what is within the heart without reservation call upon that quality of foolishness that does not ask for any return for what is given, nor does it ask that what is given be accepted or acted upon, so all that is asked is that the opportunity to serve be available, and we encourage K to persist in this foolishness, for within the illusion which you find yourselves nothing may be known with certainty, for that which is the foundation of all creation and inspiration is shrouded in mystery and hidden from all but the most persistent inward-seeking eye. On November 14, 1982, Latwii spoke of shariing the Love within our hearts:

When one attempts to share the Love that is within the heart, open the heart without premeditation so that that Love which is within may be expressed freely and naturally if such words as you have spoken come easily to your lips, then speak them freely. Do not worry with concerns about how you shall accompany the Love with words or actions, simply seek within the heart of your being to give freely, and the words and clothing of the action shall naturally be made clear to you, or should we say through you.

At this time, we would make a final attempt to contact the new instrument, and perhaps say a few additional words through this new instrument. We shall contact the one known as K at this time.

 I am Laitos.

(K channeling)

I am Laitos. We are with this instrument again. [inaudible] We wish to say that we are pleased to be talking through this instrument. At this time we wish to say…

[The rest of the channeling is inaudible.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos and am again with this instrument. We are very happy that we have been able not only to contact the one known as K and to speak a few words through this new instrument, but that we have been able with each contact to expand the abilities of this instrument, and we look forward to each opportunity to work with this new instrument and this group. Before taking our leave of this group, we would ask if there might be any queries that we might respond to in order to facilitate the process which is ongoing?

K: [Inaudible]…

Carla: [Inaudible]… trying to frame a question?

K: [Inaudible]…

Carla: I’d like to know if my perceptions are accurate. However, I don’t want to make you infringe on our free will. Would it be possible to ask you if my perceptions throughout this period were accurate, and again answer, yes or no.

I am Laitos and am aware of your query, my sister. Though we find there is some possibility of infringing upon your own free will, we find that due to the manner in which the query was fashioned we may answer in the affirmative, and in general confirm the feelings that you have left in an unexpressed form.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: I dealt with the situation a certain way. I want to frame this so you can say yes or no. Was that the optimal way I could have dealt with the situation in terms of the welfare of all those in the group?

I am Laitos, and we find that this query is somewhat more difficult to answer than was the previous query. We may suggest that given the certain set of circumstances at the moment of which you speak, that the action taken was helpful, but that such action was more or less helpful than another would constitute infringement, in our opinion.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No, but let me ask another question. When a person or a group—a person in a group or outside of a group—experiences a psychic greeting, say this person challenges the entity perceived and discovers that the entity cannot meet the challenge but is reluctant to leave, and mentally, verbally, begins snapping at the heels by discussing how much the meditator Loves the Christ, and the meditator begins singing a hymn in her mind, and this would presuppose certain assumptions that the meditator is making concerning the nature of attack or greeting and the nature of the kindest and cleanest and most loving way to illuminate it. Are those assumptions adequate, or are there other assumptions that would be helpful to consider?

I am Laitos…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos and am again with this instrument. To continue our response. We find within this query greater possibility of infringement upon your own powers of discrimination and use of free will were we to give specific response. We may speak in general, and suggest that at any point in one’s experience that one feels influences of a negative nature, that is, of a nature which seems to oppose the movement of one’s free will, that the response which is most helpful is that response which moves with greatest freedom without distortion and with the widest possible view of the experience which has been encountered. That is to say, as one is able to see all entities, thoughts and experiences as portions of the one Creator and is able to bless and Love these experiences, one then moves to their heart and at that point joins in Love with them. If any outer expression by another entity, then, is not congruent to that heartfelt expression, such an entity will find it necessary to remove its presence from the mirror which reflects to it the heart of Love which it has denied in order that it might progress upon that path which may be characterized by the phrase, “the path of that which is not”—separation.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you.

I am Laitos, and we thank you, my sister. Is there any further query at this time?

I’m curious, Laitos. I miss one of your trademarks, and want to know why this group hasn’t called it forth. And I keep waiting for you to say, “Be sure and meditate every day, even if it is only for five minutes.” We haven’t heard it once in two nights. What happened?

I am Laitos, and we might suggest, my sister, that we have attempted to speak to this topic in a more general fashion, weaving it into our overall message, with the feeling that this group is well aware of the necessity of meditation and the lighter touch, shall we say, would be more appreciated by those entities which comprise this group. However we do take requests. Be sure to meditate each day. Five minutes will suffice. Even five seconds.

Carla: [Laughing] That was great—thank you very much.

I am Laitos, and would be happy to respond to any further queries.

Carla: That’s all, thank you—for me.

I am Laitos, and we thank each within this group for inviting our presence and for reminding us to remind you to do that which is most salient within the seeking of any entity who wishes to unravel the mysteries of being. Join yourselves at your heart at any moment that is available, that you might remove that busyness of your daily lives and join the ever-present silence in appreciation of the might, the majesty, and the mystery of the one Creator. We are with you there, and upon your request we shall even join you in your busyness, for to taste of your experience is a delight to us. We relish the opportunity to find the Creator in yet another place of hiding. We shall at this time leave this group in the manner of speaking only, for always we are one with you. We are known to you as those of Laitos. Adonai, my friends. Adonai, in the Love and the Light of the One. 

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “Probably the same thing is true of most of the people of this world who know us. If they would write down what they think about us, we would never recognize it as a description of ourselves. If they love us, it is a picture that is far too good, and we know it; and if they dislike us, it is a picture that is far too bad, and we know that too. But now we are making exactly the same mistake. The person in whose favor we are prejudiced against we think about as being far too good—they do not deserve it humanly; and the other one against whom we are bearing false witness does not deserve that either.

Let us forget the good that we believe about some and the evil that we believe about others and see what the spiritual truth is. This we can do by taking the one person who seems to be lost and objectionable to us. The first thing we discover about them is that we have been mistaken about their parentage because God is their Father. Whatever heritage there is, is of God, and the only qualities any person can inherit are the qualities God bestows upon God’s image and likeness which include life, love, truth, justice, mercy, integrity, generosity, and benevolence. God’s own qualities are God’s gifts to God’s children.

God constitutes individual being; and therefore, God’s grace is upon this person, and God imbues them with God’s own qualities. They live and move and have their being in God’s household as a member of the family of God. That is their true individuality and their true being.

This truth about God’s creation dissolves whatever human concept we may have been entertaining about any person because, as we know the truth, the false mental concept which we have built in our thought, and which is turning on us and rending us is being dissolved. When next we set eyes upon this troublesome one, love will begin to flow out from us to them because we shall more nearly see them as they are, and when we behold them as they are, we shall be satisfied with their likeness.

The human personality, the human body, the human pocketbook, and the human woes and virtues—all these must be forgotten, and those with spiritual perception must look beyond and above these, realizing: “This is a person, and the reality of their being is God.” Such a realization can awaken them to their true identity and dispel the entire illusion of sense which is binding them.

The truth we are knowing is not about a human being but about God, for God is appearing as this individual. Our mind has played tricks on us: we have accepted concepts and believed in them, but now we can see that these concepts are nothing but mental images. The picture in our mind in actuality never was that person: it was a mental concept which we had built, and we disliked the concept that we ourselves had created. When we know that this image in our mind is not truth—is not substance or reality—we can begin to accept God as the creative Principle of life, and we shall understand why we have been told not only to love our neighbor as ourselves, but our enemy as well.  In our heart we an say to this person, “I know who thou art, the son or daughter of God, the Christ. The God within me has revealed this to me.”

Early this morning I went outside to change out the sugar syrup in my hummingbird feeders and my neighbor’s hummingbird feeder. Then I discovered I raccoon #13 in my Hava-Hart trap in my back yard. I think Elaine was right when she said that I am a raccoon magnet!

Later this morning I used Whip Lash to finish trimming the grass in the back yard where my large mower, Venus, could not go yesterday when I cut the grass in my yard. Then I went on an errand run with my first stop being a rural area just across the Ohio River in southern Indiana where I released the raccoon. The second 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 picked up some prescriptions.

This afternoon I went back outside and hand-weeded the Hosta Plants along the Forsythia Bushes in my back yard.

Compassion Replaces Offense

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

It is said that compassion blots out all offenses. Yet what your people feel most often is not compassion but guilt and anger. For you judge yourselves and others most harshly.

Compassion has little or nothing to do with offense. Rather it calls forth a higher reality, a more imposing presence, not overcoming mistakes and errors but simply offering a larger viewpoint.

Thus, it is that compassion replaces offense, forgives offense, and sees offense for what it is: that which is perceived by man.

Yet who can say what is perceived by the Creator? Allow the spirit of the living Christ to form compassion within your hearts and minds, not judging and not believing in a great paper towel that somehow wipes up the sin.

Know that there is a saner, more balanced, and more compassionate level of mind which brings mind and heart together in the compassionate Love of Christ, which sees the true beauty and perfection of souls who feel they may have made mistakes.

We leave you in that higher reality of the peace which proceeds therefrom. We leave you in the kingdom of heaven, now and forever.

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.
