I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the 102 quote comes from Chapter Six and the concept of open communication:

Open communication

“If there is the expectation, and it is not owned, if there is the prejudice and it is not owned, if it is not brought out into the open, how can the other entity do anything but respond to the feeling that lies behind the statement, which is seemingly innocent and harmless. So when there is a blockage that is inexplicable, it does not have to do with vocabulary or amount of information given. Then it is that one begins anew at another level of communication: a telling of the story of the self, a speaking of the legend of the moment. “This is what I have created. Respect this, but tell me what you have created, and I shall respect that.” And from this exchange, all differences in perception may be communicated back and forth, back and forth, until the two creations have a consensus reality, special to those two entities at that moment in the combined myth of two entities upon a journey of seeking together, thus unifying what was broken, and healing that which was sore and painful.” Q’uo, April 5, 1992

Q’uo said that oftentimes communication is difficult because one or both of the parties in the communication have a “prejudice” or a “blockage” in their communications that they are not aware of or are not admitting. It is so easy to have such hindrances to clear communication secreted away in our unconscious minds as remnants of disharmonies and disconnections with our emotions from our early years as children. So Q’uo suggested that to have open or free communication between two people it is necessary to begin at a new level of communication where each person takes responsibility for what they are hearing as being a creation of their own making.

 In such a responsible way of communicating a phrase may be used such as: “This is what I have created. Respect this, but tell me what you have created, and I shall respect that.” This type of communication becomes a “a journey of seeking together” which eventually can come to a “consensus reality,”by moving beyond what was the “blockage” or “myth” and being able to “heal that which was broken or painful.”

This type of communication moves below the usual surface thoughts and feelings to areas of our conscious and subconscious minds where our core beliefs may be found. These core beliefs are the guiding forces that we may or may not always be aware of. If we can get to this level of our being our communication will become more authentic and powerful. Then we really have a chance of achieving true communication, actually coming into union with another being. It may take some work within ourselves and then with others in order to clarify and harmonize our communication, but it is well worth the effort. In the next quote Q’uo adds some more depth to open communication.

 Your creation is yours alone. In a way, all is one; but in the way of learning and teaching, each entity has its own creation. Each who sits in this circle has its own creation and the rules, the study, the progress, the evolution of each of you is unique. You cannot transfer truth, wisdom and perfection as perceived by one person, whole and complete, to another entity. One can only move up from one’s essence to the level of words, to that level which is so shallow and frustrating and, by open communication, share those gifts which have been yours to receive without any attachment as to whether any other soul appreciates or responds to that same information. Q’uo, November 13, 2003

Every person in the infinite creation is a unique being. Even though we have so much in common with each other Q’uo reminds us that at the depths of our being we are each perceiving and experiencing our truths in thoughts that are actually too deep for words to convey. So when we engage in open communication with each other, the best we can do is to share ourselves as honestly and authentically as possible without any dedication to being actually understood. I think that might well be the truest definition of communication: we are constantly coming into unity with each other, but it is a journey that may never be complete. I would also like to add that totally clear communication of our thoughts and our nature may also be the result of our not perfectly being able to perceive and express them. A great deal of our spiritual journeys revolves in being able to know who we are, and there are many layers to the true nature of our being. Our spiritual journeys are a process and a constant experience of self-discovery. Q’uo shared some inspiring words regarding how self-discovery is a primary part of our spiritual journey:

You, my friends, are as those who search through days and nights, through clarity and haze, through clichés and misunderstanding, looking restlessly for the inspiration that will be food for your true self. How diversely you look. Were you capable of travel, your desire is such you would seek the Earth over and you would have many strange experiences, and yet we say to you, you have many and strange experiences. It is your discriminatory power which will point the heart of your experiences out to you and make you realize the incredible adventure of experiencing the illusion which you experience. The greatest adventure lies in the microscopic interplay of synaptic connections which lies within the confines of the consciousness and that electrically powered organism which houses it. The adventure of interpretation, discrimination, understanding and self-discovery is such that your greatest explorer could not discover any territory so vast and so uncharted. Took you ship and sailed the globe around you could not go as far as you can go in meditation and in self-discovery.

My friends, you are not creatures of your body. You are not bound by time or space. Your birthright is that which you have called Christ-consciousness. You are love. The one known as Jesus said, “I am the way.” This consciousness is a path, a path so exciting, so all-encompassing, and so attractive that all those upon your planet will eventually find it, it and no other, for it is the path of truth, of life, of love. The universe, my friends, is one thing. It is within you, both to find that one thing and to be that one thing. We ask your permission to coax you into the consideration at all times, in all decisions, in all situations, of the dimensions of meditation and of seeking. Surely it is well to set aside the time, as you call it, for this marvelous exercise of the joyousness of silence, for this tremendous opportunity to listen to that which has so long been lost among your peoples. Q’uo, January 31, 1982.

Such a path of self-discovery is one which shows us the universe is within us and is available through meditation and reveals our true selves to us so that we can then engage in authentic and open communications. This is certainly the work of the Player on the Enhanced Gameboard of life.

This morning I pruned my three Mother-in-Law Tongue house plants of their weaker and somewhat wilted leaf stalks. Then I went into the back yard and used my tree saw to begin to cut down the large Lilac Bushes that have not produced any blooms for the last few years. There are many small Lilac Bushes there that I am hoping will now have a chance to produce blooms. I filled one garbage can with the first cuttings. Then I took a trip to Paul’s Fruit Market to buy some food.

This afternoon I sewed a patch onto the corner of my bed where Bosco jumps up and grabs it with his claws and, over the last few months, has torn the bed spread and pulled much of the stuffing out from the quilted layers of the bed spread. Then I went back outside and cut another garbage can full of the large Lilacs next to the Moss Garden in the back yard.

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

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 peoples 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. 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 102 quote comes from Chapter Six and the concept of: on another level Gaia Meditations:

On another level—Gaia Meditations

The entity which you call Earth, or Gaia, is one which is in the process of its own evolution as is each entity upon it. The Earth entity at this time, realizing that it is preparing to move into a more intense portion of the birthing of a new Earth is, as we have mentioned previously, particularly vulnerable as is any woman who is about to give birth to new life. The experience of many thousands of years of difficulties between the populations of this planet has caused the entity of Earth to be, shall we say, infected with a great deal of anger and hostility, the vibrations of the bellicose actions of your peoples over a great portion of your time. This heat of anger has caused the entity of Earth to release the excess heat in various places in various manners. Those geophysical eruptions of your volcanoes, the earthquakes, and so forth have been able to release some of this buildup of heat so that the mantle of the Earth, in some places, is rearranged in a fashion which causes a great deal of physical destruction. Yet the alignment possible after such rearrangements is that which welcomes the newer vibrations of love and compassion which are now moving more fully into expression within some portions of, not only the Earth entity, but large portions of the Earth’s populations. Thus the entity of Earth has begun to vibrate more fully in harmony with both the newer vibrations of love and compassion and those of the population of this planet which has also sought to harmonize with these vibrations as well. Thus there is, within the Earth entity, a feeling of excitement at this opportunity, of distress at the difficulty of the birth, of compassion for those who suffer, and a kind of maternal disapproval of those who yet linger in the ways of war. Q’uo, 2/23/2001

Q’uo suggested that Gaia, our Mother Earth, is about to give birth to a new version of Herself now that we are at the end of the 75,000 year cycle of third density. Apparently, this birth process is one which puts Gaia in some difficult vibrations as the thousands of years of war and hostility upon Mother Earth has actually infected her beingness as she goes through Her birth process. The most devasting of these wars go all the way back 11,000 years ago and the destruction of Atlantis to the modern day WW II where nuclear bombs were used by the United States against Nagasaki and Hiroshima in Japan.

There have also been countless other wars throughout recorded history that have caused a buildup of heat within Gaia that must be released in order for Her to be able to welcome the new vibrations of love and understanding of the fourth density. This heat must be released in the form of what we experience as earthquakes and volcanoes which can be very destructive to the crust or mantle of the Earth. However, as these releases of the heat of the anger of Gaia’s population are completed there is an increasing ability of the new fourth-density vibrations of love and compassion to be assimilated both by Gaia and some of her population of third-density beings. This is certainly a difficult situation for all concerned but is necessary in order to make the transition to the fourth density of love and understanding.

I found an article in yesterday’s Louisville Courier Journal newspaper (June 2, 2023) that was titled “Study finds Earth is ‘really quite sick.’ This is what the article said:

“The study by the international scientist group Earth Commission published in Wednesday’s journal Nature looks at climate, air pollution, phosphorus and nitrogen contamination of water from fertilizer overuse, groundwater supplies, fresh surface water, the unbuilt natural environment and the overall natural and human-built environment. Only air pollution wasn’t quite at the danger point globally.

The study found “hotspots” of problem areas throughout Eastern Europe, South Asia, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, parts of Africa and much of Brazil, Mexico, China and some of the U.S. West—much of it from climate change. About two-thirds of Earth doesn’t meet the criteria for freshwater safety, scientists said as an example.

If planet Earth just got an annual check-up, similar to a person’s physical, “our doctor would say that the Earth is really quite sick right now and it is sick in terms of many different areas or systems and this sickness is also affecting the people living on Earth,” Earth Commission co-chair Joyeeta Gupta, a professor of environment at the University of Amsterdam, said at a press conference.

It’s not a terminal diagnosis. The planet can recover if changes are made, including the use of coal, oil and natural gas and the ways that the land and water are used, the scientists said.

But “we are moving in the wrong direction on basically all of these,” said study lead author Johan Rockstrom, director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany.

Rockstrom and other scientists have attempted in the past this type of holistic measuring of Earth’s various interlocking ecosystems. The big difference in this attempt is that scientists also looked at local and regional levels and they added the element of justice.

The justice part includes fairness between young and old generations, different nations and even different species. Frequently, it applies to conditions that harm people more than the planet.

An example of that is climate change.

The report uses the same boundary of 2.7 degrees Fahrenheit of warming since pre-industrial times that international leaders agree upon in the 2015 Paris climate agreement. The world has so far warmed about 2 degrees Fahrenheit, so it hasn’t crossed that safety fence, Rockstrom and Gupta said, but that doesn’t mean people aren’t being hurt.

“What we are trying to show through our paper is that event at 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit there is a huge amount of damage taking place,” Gupta said, pointing to tens of millions of people exposed to extra hot temperatures.

The planetary safety guardrail of 1.5 degrees hasn’t been breached, but the “just” boundary where people are hurt of 1 degree has been.

“Sustainability and justice are inseparable,” said Stanford environmental studies chief Chris Field, who wasn’t part of the research. He said he would want even more stringent boundaries. “Unsafe conditions do not need to cover a large fraction of Earths area to be unacceptable, especially if the unsafe conditions are concentrated in and near poor and vulnerable communities.”

Now as difficult as this all sounds Q’uo also had some words of wisdom and inspiration as to how each of us can insure the well-being of Mother Earth:

Your positively oriented entities focus upon the perceived physical damage done to the planet. However, it is very slight damage, although it looks considerable to the citizens of its surface, compared to the damage done by those who have lost their hope and therefore their ability to exist as loving creatures aware of their power.

In essence, we urge each who cares for the planet to reckon with their personal power. Far from being powerless, each entity has access to great amounts of power for weal or for woe. All good entities which wring their hands and pass the judgment upon those who do not appreciate their beautiful environment, are damaging the planet in a metaphysical sense by losing hope in the healing of the Earth sphere. What these positive entities do not realize is that the illusion is the illusion is the illusion is the illusion. It will continue to produce possibilities for catalyst. It, itself, is not in difficulty. It mirrors the lack of hope and feeling of powerlessness of positive entities in a more damaging way than all of the environmental obscenities practiced by those who are insensitive to living in harmony with nature.

And we would close this beginning message with the plea to each positive entity to realize that the environmental pollution is not nearly as serious an illness to the planetary entity of Grandmother Earth as the lack, and increasing lack, of certainty among these positive entities that all is well and all shall be well. Not in the illusion, but in the reality, relatively speaking, of the imperishable fields of consciousness that each of you is with relation to the imperishable spirit of unconditional and creative love that is the metaphysical planetary entity. It is good not to pollute the streams and forests of your planet, but this is within the illusion, and you shall come and you shall go. However, outside of illusion both the Logos of the planetary entity and of yourselves lie in potential, mated, loving, faithful and hopeful relationship. And if there is judgment in the attempts to heal the physical Earth, then the judgment harms the metaphysical entity of your planet more than the attempts to teach the love of Earth in a judgmental way could ever help. Q’uo, April 7, 1991.

Along this same line of thinking, back in August of 2001, Carla and I heard from a friend of ours who had always been able to communicate with Mother Earth. He said that She was not communicating with him anymore. He asked us if we could develop some kind of meditation to heal Gaia. That was the beginning of our evening Gaia Meditation where we attempted to send love and healing energies to Gaia. Three weeks after we began, the bombing of the World Trade Center occurred, and we have always thought this might have been why our friend had not been able to communicate with Gaia as She likely saw what was coming. Our Gaia Meditations continue to this day at 7 pm Eastern time if anyone would like to join us.

We also end each Gaia Meditation with this prayer:

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

In this past year I have also created a Gaia Visualization that I recorded and which Austin made available for people to listen to on the internet. It can also be read in your personal meditations as your offering to healing Mother Earth. It goes like this:

“Visualizing Mother Earth, our beloved Gaia, moving across the galactic clockface into the fourth density of love and understanding. Yet Her entire population of 8 billion souls is in disarray of hopelessness, anger, confusion, and separation. So I ask the One Infinite Creator to send Its infinite love and light energies through my violet ray chakra that I may send them out through my green-ray chakra to surround and imbue each of the 8 billion souls on Earth with this infinite love and light energy of the One Creator.

And I ask that an harmonic resonance be set up between this infinite love and light energy of the One Creator and the infinite love and light energy of the One Creator within each entity on Earth, as each entity is the One Creator. As this harmonic resonance becomes activated and more powerful, a light begins to shine within the soul of each entity on Earth revealing to it the path and purpose of the incarnation: to love and serve each other and the One Creator in all things.

As this is done more frequently and fastidiously the 8 billion souls on Earth become a planetary mind, a social memory complex and move Mother Earth more firmly and fully into the fourth density of love and understanding. May it be so. Thank you, Father.”

This morning I have moved my sprinkler around to various flower beds to water them as it has been quite a while since we have received any rain. Then I had the zoom meet with the Seattle Law of One study group hosted by Jonathan Tong. As usual, the questions were very thoughtful and unique, and I was inspired to give the best responses that I could to each one.

This afternoon I deadheaded the Peonies and Irises around the fish pond, and then I made a trip to The Home Depot to buy another sprinkler as the old one broke apart as I was moving it to a new location.

How Quickly The Moment Passes

I am the voice of Jesus Christ in the world and I greet you in the full consciousness of love.

How very quickly the moment passes! How very swiftly the days run together! How soon each sunset comes upon those who dwell in sunlight! And in the end, how rapidly and suddenly does the daylight end, the night come, and the body become dust once again.

You, my children, dwell in dust, yet you are not dust.

You dwell in time, yet you are not time.

As you are the Father’s own children, may you see the preciousness of this moment, this hour, this day, this life.

Turn to the living Christ. Turn to divine love. And find each present moment stretched, enhanced and savored.

Turn, then, to the world and, with the eyes of the consciousness of love, see the world remade in love. Let your vision be carried in the brightness of the eye, in the lilt of the smile, and in the serenity of the heart, into the world this day and every day.

We leave you in the peace and love of Jesus the Christ, now and forever. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the 102 quote comes from Chapter Six and the section on property stewardship—make your property green:

Property stewardship—make your property green

Our first place to focus our energy in helping Mother Earth to reflect true love and care is in our own home and on our own property, where we live and spend the great majority of our time. When I searched the internet for suggestions of how to do this in my home I was happy to see a number of suggestions, and I have added my own comments to them:

1. This simple suggestion would save the power necessary to heat hot water, and if more people did this the savings could be quite substantial.

• This suggestion is quite similar to the first one in that if you dried your clothes outside on a clothesline you could also save the power necessary to run the drier. However, it would require more time be spent hanging the clothes up on the clothesline and then taking them down, and most people are in a bind for time these days. It would take a very serious commitment to spend this time as a continuous way of saving power and the pollution that often comes with the creation of power.

• This suggestion could be to, for example, grow your own food rather than buying the fruits and vegetables that you could grow in your own garden.

• I have recently begun to use LED bulbs instead of regular light bulbs as I have been told that they use less energy and actually last longer as well.

• Using a programmable thermostat is said to save about $180 per year over having a thermostat that continues to run at a certain temperature even after that temperature has been reached in the house.

•  Recycling Bin and a Compost Bin. …Most people these days do have a recycling bin since most cities recognize the value of recycling paper, plastic, cardboard, glass, and metals. But it is also a good idea to include a compost bin in the kitchen area to collect any food items that you could use in your garden.

• Planting herbs in your garden or even in little pots that you can put in the window will save having to buy them at the grocery store.

• Decorating our homes with plants helps to oxygenate the air as well as make us happy and inspire us to be more creative. Plants also create a peaceful atmosphere that is immediately apparent to anyone visiting our homes.

Q’uo had some helpful suggestions as to how to use gardening as a kind of stewardship of our property:

As you appreciate and love the Earth, as you literally put your hands in its dirt, care for it and tend to it and praise its beauty, it is as a young girl who is told she is beautiful. It feels so good to Gaia to be appreciated and to be treated gently and lovingly.

Therefore, you are of great service to the Earth as you open your heart to its beauty and its rhythm. And this too, you may teach the one known as N, for this shall be of interest to her in the future.

We might suggest that the one known as D enter the silence consciously and with intent as he works upon his gardening, letting the dirt’s call and the sound of the cricket and tree frog be the music which embellishes the sweet silence of a quiet mind, occupied hands, and an absolute attention to the beauty of the moment.

There are walls within the heart of the one known as D which this sweet ministry shall break down so that the heart may be ever more fully open and so that fear may be a thing of the past. Q’uo, September 7, 2007.

Those of Ra also had some inspiring words to say in 95.11 about gardening which could be seen as a stewardship of our property as well:

Questioner: I am assuming that the newly chosen place meets parameters for best contact on the exterior of the house and would ask Ra at this time if there is any suggestions with respect to the exterior of the house?

Ra: I am Ra. The dwelling seems surrounded with the trees and fields of your countryside. This is acceptable. We suggest the general principle of preparing each part of your environment as it best suits each in the group with the beauty which each may feel to be appropriate. There is much of blessing in the gardening and the care of surroundings, for when this is accomplished in love of the creation the second-density flowers, plants, and small animals are aware of this service and return it.

This morning I went outside and transplanted five Hosta into the area of the Wuthering Heights Mound which have had Hosta in the past but which seem to have died out for some reason. I also transplanted three Hosta in the back yard in front of the Forsythia hedge in an area which also has had Hosta die out over the last couple of years.

This afternoon I used my deer repellant spray composed of putrefied eggs to spray all of the flowers in my yard and my neighbor’s yard as well.

Your Connection With Eternity

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

Experience in this moment the fullness of joy. Let go of every limitation, every negative thought, and everything that may keep you from perfect joy. Experience this natural and wondrous feeling in its purity and allow it to remove your consciousness from the mundane concerns of a limited world.

You are creatures of a human lifetime and in that expression you may offer certain gifts. The ground of these gifts, however, lies in your connection with eternity.

We leave you in love and peace, both now and always. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the 102 quote comes from Chapter Six and the concept of local air/water/other pollution problem solving:

Local air/water/other pollution problem solving

As years have gone by and our industrialization has flourished we, as a nation, have become careless with how much pollution of our air, water, and soil has been accepted as the price of our progress. This pollution has become so rampant that it is now evident to a growing number of Americans that we can no longer ignore the damage that has been done. More and more people are standing up for Gaia, our Mother Earth, and have attempted to have laws passed concerning reducing the amount of pollution that is permissible. People are also actively involved on the local level to see what improvements they can personally make in their communities.

And this kind of a need for solving pollution problems in the world is still being created by actions today such as the decision last Thursday, May 25, 2023, by the U.S. Supreme Court that cut the protection of water provided by the Clean Water Act to a disastrous degree. The Clean Water Act of 1972 regulates the amount of pollutants that can be discharged into local rivers, lakes, and wetlands. The 5-4 ruling sided with the Sackett family in Idaho who sued the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency more than a decade ago after the agency blocked them, under provisions of the Clean Water Act, from developing their property. Here in Kentucky, according to last Tuesday’s Louisville Courier-Journal newspaper (May 30, 2023) this decision “threatens the wellbeing of the wetlands areas which have already been reduced in their size by 80% of their original area. Now advocacy groups are worried that this ruling would open the door for increased agricultural runoff, threatening drinking water supplies with chemicals like nitrates, while others said it could represent an erosion of water protections as a whole.” U.S. Senator Mitch McConnel, who is from Kentucky, celebrated the ruling as “long-awaited relief and much needed clarity for businesses and landowners.” So in the name of businesses being able to make more money, Mother Earth must pay yet another price of having her waters polluted. Q’uo speaks to this type of situation where they said:

“All around you there are those who have polluted and destroyed the Earth, and you experience this perhaps in terms that are local to you—a plant that is emitting toxic emissions. If this moves you, see what you can do in your village or your neighborhood to make a change for the better. Become compassionate stewards of Mother Earth, for Gaia is most grateful to those who help her to become more healthy.

Indeed, we especially encourage you in your stewardship of the Earth. For there is a tremendous amount of what this instrument would call “group karma” having to do with the fact that so many of those who are attempting to graduate from third density on planet Earth have, in the past, on Sirius, Deneb, Mars, Maldek or Atlantis, destroyed their environments. There is great heart-sadness amongst the entire human tribe concerning the destruction of Mother Earth. And it is very healing, in your energy patterns as a people, wherever you live, to become involved in loving and serving your beautiful, fragile island home.” Q’uo, July 31, 2007

Q’uo exhorted all of us to give our utmost effort in helping to heal our Mother Earth. So many people on Earth have not only taken part in despoiling our planet through destructive anger at all levels of society—from interpersonal relationships to military operations–but some have actually done the same on other planets within our solar system. They are on Earth now for the purpose of reversing that type of behavior while in this incarnation. The degradation of pollution is a current problem that is planet-wide with huge islands of plastic floating in various parts of our oceans with significant pollution of lakes, rivers, and ground water as well.

Your peoples for many, many generations have had the unfortunate tendency—and we say unfortunate because it is sorrowful, both to your soul and the soul of Earth itself—to see the self as the predator and the conqueror, not considering the realm as a whole or how the parts might fit together, but considering only short-term goals. “I want water here, therefore, we shall dam up the water to create water here where there was not water before.”

Does it come into the mind of the predator what that damming up of a natural resource will do to Mother Earth who had a balanced aquifer system? No, for that is not a concern to one who has separated itself from Mother Earth. Consequently, there is also a substantial list of species that have declined and become extinct because of the lack of stewardship and the ascent of predation on the part of the humans to who Mother Earth was entrusted. Q’uo, December 19, 2009.

Here Q’uo is talking about a very basic frame of mind of most people in our country who do not see the unified relationship between Mother Earth and her population of human beings and all other forms of life as well. The veil of forgetting seems to have such a thick composition for most people that it is easy to think only of the self and the self-centered needs of people to become what Q’uo called predators or conquerors of the environment in which they live rather than stewards of the environment and the various life forms that thrive within the natural environment. This type of point of view and sense of being does not have the over view of the entire system of Mother Earth and how all parts are interrelated, but sees only the short-term needs of the separated self—acknowledged through such practices of creating dams, clear-cutting large areas of forest to create locations for businesses or subdivisions, and mining coal by dynamiting the topsoil and stone enhancing flooding by rain runoff. However, there are more and more people these days who are aware of the dire consequences of such behavior and are seeking to re-establish the crucial link of the survival of all forms of life as a system of interrelated forms, each necessary for the well-being of all.

Each of us can take part in the cleaning up of our local environments, from our own yards and neighborhoods to nearby lakes and rivers. We all can do something to give love and respect to Mother Earth as a way of life. We can join with others who are of like mind to form groups to clean up our neighborhoods, rivers, beaches, walking trails, or whatever part of our communities need cleansing and healing. There are groups in every city that are dedicated to these types of concerns, and the Player on the Enhanced Game Board of life will be able to give of time, talents, and donations to help demonstrate the proper love and care for their environment.

This morning I set the sprinkler in various locations to water my gardens as it has been a while since we have gotten rain and none is in the forecast. Then I ran a series of errands with my first stop being at Walgreen’s Drug Store to get the booster Shingles vaccination, and while I was there I purchased a number of items that were on my shopping list. My second stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market to pick up some food for myself. Then I went to Kroger’s to buy some coconut water and shredded cheese. My last stop was at the vet’s to pick up some meds for Benny.

This afternoon I decided to try to solve the unusual situation where the fountain in the fish pond is only a couple of inches tall instead of a couple of feet tall as it has been until a few days ago. So I took the pump that is currently being used out of the pond and replaced it with another pump. I was thrilled to see the fountain shoot up to about two feet in height from what was previously about 4 inches in height. Then I spent about half an hour walking around the yard looking for an earring that a friend lost at last weekend’s Homecoming Gathering. Unfortunately, I didn’t find it, but I will continue to keep my eyes out for it as I do my daily work in my gardens.

Eternal Peace

I am the voice of Jesus the Christ in the world today. I greet you in the full consciousness of love.

The kittens upon this instrument’s lap bask in each other’s affection. The sounds of the neighborhood, the barking of dogs, the singing of birds, the crunch of far-away tires on gravel filter gently through the cool summer morning and all seems ecstatic, peaceful and easy.

Yet this is a peace of this experience. There is a further peace, a peace beyond understanding, the advent of which comes to one who finally perceives the eternal peace of which all the sensual descriptions are but small manifestations.

Carry this eternal peace in your thoughts, in your heart, and in your actions this day. The situations that seem not so peaceful to the world may still be blessed by your perception, founded in Christ.

It is in the love and the peace of Jesus the Christ that we leave you 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. The 102 quote today comes from Chapter Six and the concept of the positive use of resources:

The positive use of resources

In my country we have an abundance of natural resources that have allowed the population of the United States to be able to sustain itself with food, clothing, and shelter throughout the past 200 years. Having these resources and the mechanized industrial environment in which to process our many resources allowed the people of this country leisure time which now could be used to consider the meaning of their lives rather than simply how to work from sunrise to sunset to stay alive. In the following quote, Ra mentioned how the Industrial Revolution began 200 years ago and included waves of Wanderers who incarnated at that time to be of service to Earth and her population:

“ 26.13 Questioner: Did the Confederation then step up its program of helping planet Earth sometimes, some time late in this last major cycle? It seems that they did from the previous data, especially with the Industrial Revolution. Can you tell me the attitudes and reasonings behind this step up? Is there any reason other than that they just wanted to produce more leisure time in the last, say, a hundred years of the cycle? Is this the total reason?

Ra: I am Ra. This is not the total reason. Approximately two zero zero [200] of your years in the past, as you measure time, there began to be a significant amount of entities who, by seniority, were incarnating for learn/teaching purposes rather than for the lesser of the learn/teachings of those less aware of the process. This was our signal to enable communication to take place.

The wanderers which came among you began to make themselves felt at approximately this time, firstly offering ideas or thoughts containing the distortion of Free Will. This was the prerequisite for further wanderers which had information of a more specific nature to offer. The thought must precede the action.”

Ra is talking about some of our founding fathers in the above quote: Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson, among others as Ra mentioned in 26.16. They were working with the concept of free will when they wrote the Declaration of Independence that stated the basic principles upon which the United States was formed as it broke away from British rule. This Declaration of Independence made the natural resources of this country the property of this country that would eventually support its own people but also create a means of enhancing its standing in the world community of independent nations.

Although this has benefitted generations of Americans, it cannot be said to be a wholly positive beginning. After all, this land which is called the United States of America was stolen from the Native Americans and has been exploited for its resources, resulting in deforestation and pollution. This reflects the somewhat bellicose or primitive thinking of early settlers, and American state and national governments certainly demonstrated an historical irreverence for this land—an attitude that is so much at odds with Native American tradition that sees the land as part of the people and the people a part of the land. To this day the great majority of our indigenous peoples are living in a state of poverty on 300 reservations, scattered across our country, which were chosen by their white conquerors because of their geographical isolation and ease of controlling the Native Americans living there.

However, in the last few years there has been an effort to return some of the land that was stolen from Native Americans which is called the Land Back movement. The aim of the movement is to return the land to those indigenous peoples who know best how to care for the land and its resources. This Land Back movement is occurring across our country in bits and pieces. Some of the land is gifted, and some of it is sold to the tribes. Though certainly not coming anywhere close to what should be done in returning Native American land to its rightful inhabitants, at least there is an effort being made to right the wrongs of the past where every treaty made with indigenous peoples was broken. With every piece of land returned to indigenous peoples we all benefit by having the land loved and cared for in the most environmentally harmonious way instead of being polluted and depleted of the resources that all land contains. I am sure that Gaia, our Mother Earth, appreciates each step taken in this direction as we are all one with Mother Earth and her people. Here Q’uo suggests how each of us can help to heal Mother Earth:

There are those of you who wish to help Mother Earth at this time. We are not saying that you should move into the national or international sphere and attempt to change the world. We are saying that wherever you live, there are challenges for the environment and they can best be discussed and dealt with by those who are on the ground in the area, and local.

So set your sights, if you want inspiration, at ground zero for you, the center of your universe, the place that you live. And ask yourself, “What are the problems in this particular community that are trammeling Mother Earth, that are challenging her ability to survive?” ³ And then, when you have targeted a difficult road bed, a misbehaving stream of water, a dam that does not serve the greater good, or whatever it may be, my friends, if it pleases you, put your heart and your soul into action to amend for the better that particular little part of Planet Earth that needs your help. You are all stewards of it. It cannot alter what man on Earth has done by itself, without the passage of a great deal of time. You are welcome to improve the odds, and to be good stewards of Gaia. Q’uo, September 5, 2010.

This morning I was on a zoom meet with the Soul Focus group that has racial equality of all as its main function but which also has personal spiritual journeys that incorporate the Law of One as a primary tenet of their spiritual paths. We talked about my interpretation and experiences of living the Law of One in my life. We had a great time sharing our ideas about how the Law of One might be a way out of the many divisions of thought and action that cause disharmony in our world today. I look forward to our next zoom meet.

This afternoon I planted more Hyacinth Bean seeds under the pyramid at the center of the cross area in the back yard. My germination rate for the first batch of seeds was not very good, and I am hoping that these will do better. My other work for the afternoon was to take the trimmer around the yard and trim the weeds that have grown up here and there.

Slow Down!

We are of the principle which is called the spirit of Jesus Christ and we greet you in perfect love.

How your minds are scurrying this morning! What room does the spirit have to speak when there is so much of small detail and little meaning that covers your mind like a blanket? Can the spirit of the Father and the joy of Christ enter into any cracks in this mind filled with haste and hurry, fluster and worry?

Slow down! You cannot be peaceful if you give too much importance to things that have no peace in them. Your world is not built of paper or the information upon that paper. It is built, rather, of people who move their paper and their business back and forth, forgetting to allow space for themselves to be born of the spirit and to grow in Christ.

Seek the comfort that this world’s business and hurry can never have, for the sake of Jesus Christ.

In love and peace we leave you, 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 102 quote comes from Chapter Six and the concept of creating a healthy world:

Creating a healthy world

“Questioner: And then, can you describe the mechanism of the planetary healing?

Ra: I am Ra. Healing is a process of acceptance, forgiveness, and, if possible, restitution. The restitution not being available in time/space, there are many among your peoples now attempting restitution while in the physical.

Questioner: How do these people attempt this restitution in the physical?

Ra: I am Ra. These attempt feelings of love towards the planetary sphere, and comfort and healing of the scars, and the imbalances of these actions.” Ra, 26.30-31

I believe that part of creating a healthy world would be to try to heal the distortions that humanity has wrought upon our Mother Earth through these thousands of years of war and disharmony at every level of human interactions. One way that this can be accomplished is mentioned in the quote above from those of Ra. Ra suggested there are many people on the planet today who are attempting to achieve “acceptance, forgiveness, and, if possible, restitution.” I would imagine that these people are using prayers, visualizations, and meditations to heal our Mother Earth of the injuries that we have caused her over the millennia of human existence on her surface. This is a kind of balancing action on the planetary level that seeks to pour out as much of the “feelings of love towards the planetary sphere, and comfort and healing of the scars, and the imbalances of these actions” towards Mother Earth as the disharmony that wars have created in the past.

In the following quote Q’uo gave an unexpectedly simple method of helping to heal Mother Earth.

“This instrument is concerned for the peace of the world and prays for it often, and yet if this instrument prayed for peace within itself, it would be the same prayer. Indeed, it is our humble opinion that the most efficient way to bring the world to peace is to learn peace within the self, for as you think, as you are, so your universe in toto is also, for your consciousness is as a field and each bit of fear that you are able to let drop, each time that you find your heart expanding, the consciousness of your planet is being lightened. There is no lag time between the open heart of self and service to the planet, that lightening of the consciousness of planet Earth. Q’uo, January 19, 1997

Another way that this same effort of healing Mother Earth can be accomplished is mentioned in the quote above where each of us could simply work on ourselves within the meditative state. This technique reaffirms the unity of all of the creation that we live in and the effect that we can have upon it by the very way we heal and balance ourselves in prayer, meditation, contemplation, and in our daily interactions with each other. Any healing of ourselves that we can achieve heals a portion of the planet and some portion of its entire population. Any love that we find in the moment amplifies the love for each person on our planet and for planet Earth herself. Mahatma Ghandi expressed this concept well when he said: “You must become the change you wish to see in the world.” In the following quote Q’uo reflected these thoughts beautifully:

All around you there are those who have polluted and destroyed the Earth, and you experience this perhaps in terms that are local to you—a plant that is emitting toxic emissions. If this moves you, see what you can do in your village or your neighborhood to make a change for the better. Become compassionate stewards of Mother Earth, for Gaia is most grateful to those who help her to become more healthy.

Indeed, we especially encourage you in your stewardship of the Earth. For there is a tremendous amount of what this instrument would call “group karma” having to do with the fact that so many of those who are attempting to graduate from third density on planet Earth have, in the past, on Sirius, Deneb, Mars, Maldek or Atlantis, destroyed their environments. There is great heart-sadness amongst the entire human tribe concerning the destruction of Mother Earth. And it is very healing, in your energy patterns as a people, wherever you live, to become involved in loving and serving your beautiful, fragile island home.

In all these ways and many more that we cannot include for lack of time, you may live that which you have received on the inner planes. It is said in the holy work this instrument calls the Bible, “That which you have received in the darkness and in the intimacy of your inner sanctum, in secrecy and silence, sing from the housetops.” ³ Express the joy of the saving grace of hope and love that flows in an unending stream through your hearts and, blessed by you, into the world.

You can indeed make a difference. However, never confuse the outer portion of your walk with your walk. Always and ever it must begin with the silence of your prayers, meditations and thanksgivings. Q’uo, July 31, 2007.

This morning I watered my gardens again as it has been quite a while since we have had any significant rain.

This afternoon I completed the cleanup of my house by vacuuming the three bedrooms and the bathroom in the basement as well as the first floor of the house.

Seek The Light Heart

I am of the principle of Jesus the Christ and I greet you in the full consciousness of that perfect love.

When souls harden their hearts by judgment they become out of balance. And if they ask for the spirit to move within them, the spirit will act as a gentler and softener, that the heart may become humble and balance be obtained in the life experience.

When, as with those to whom we speak this day, a soul has a heart over-soft and over-sensitive towards others, then it is that the heart is hardened towards the self and that same spirit of love being summoned moves into the consciousness to restore balance by enlivening and strengthening the heart to have compassion upon the self and thus to bring balance.

The spirit speaks variously to each soul with one hope and that is that each soul may come more and more into the knowledge and experience of the wholeness of perfect love. Condemn not others or the self, but seek the light heart, the merry laugh, and the strong arm of the Comforter within.

May each dwell in the freedom and peace of Jesus the Christ, 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 102 quote comes from Chapter Six and the concept of environmentalism, oneness of planet, us and everything:

Carla’s goals for Chapter 6—In this chapter we look at how to make service-to-others choices in the world around us.

102 Chapter Six

Environmentalism

Oneness of planet, us and everything

“We do not limit this unity to other entities you would call human. It is as if all of nature, from the elements and the powers to the plants and animals, to the very air you breathe and the water that you drink, the fire that warms your heart and the earth under your feet, are dancing in rhythm. And you are either part of that dance and part of that rhythm or you have not yet awakened to the true state within which you actually dwell in the creation of the Father. It is as a beloved part of the one creation that you come by this affinity for synchronicity.” Q’uo, September 11, 2010

Q’uo made it quite clear that we who inhabit Mother Earth are more than her human population which she dearly loves. We are, in the deepest and most experiential sense, one with Gaia. The earth, wind, fire, and water, which were her first inhabitants in the first density, gave birth to the various forms of life that have developed on Earth and which have evolved into many of the 8 billion souls which now inhabit this planet. It does not matter than the majority of these souls have come from other third-density planets to repeat third density here, as we and our Mother Earth are also one with all of their planets of origin and are one with the infinite creation. The fact that we are all here now together illustrates the responsibility that we all have to care for our Mother Earth as she cares for us.

The “synchronicity” that Q’uo mentioned in the above quote has brought us all together in this massive dance of consciousness seeking to move back into unity with the One Creator who made us all. This is a fact that has been so little understood in the 75,000 years of the third density experience on Earth that thousands of years of wars between various portions of Earth’s populations have wreaked havoc on Gaia’s earthly essence. Ra spoke to this point in the following quote.

“When an entire planetary system of peoples and cultures repeatedly experiences disharmony on a great scale, the earth under the feet of these entities shall begin to resonate with this disharmony. Due to the nature of the physical vehicle, disharmony shows up as a blockage of growth or an uncontrolled growth, since the primary function of a mind/body/spirit complex’s bodily complex is growth and maintenance.

In the case of your planet, the purpose of the planet is the maintenance of orbit and the proper location or orientation with regards to other cosmic influences. In order to have this occurring properly the interior of your sphere is hot, in your physical terms. Thus, instead of uncontrolled growth you begin to experience uncontrolled heat and its expansive consequences.” Ra, 60.20

These thousands of years of “disharmony” expressed as wars have caused our Earth to release “uncontrolled heat and its expansive consequences” in the forms of volcanoes, earthquakes, violent weather patterns, and tidal waves. This slow release of heat has the purpose of attempting to harmonize Mother Earth with the increasing waves of fourth-density vibrations which have been engulfing her for the past few decades. It would be most helpful if the present population of Earth could realize the extreme necessity for the health of Mother Earth, and their own movement towards making the Harvest, by seeing past the seeming separation of souls on Earth to the unity that binds us all together as one potential social memory complex. Latwii had an inspiring overview of this nature of unity:

At a certain point in your evolution you will no longer have groups that are smaller than the planetary consciousness, for you will have discovered that you are all men and women of Earth, as you call your planet. We call your planet Sorrows. There are many names depending upon the quarter of the sky from which our ships have come. When that occurs, there will not be a feeling of “nationalism,” there will be a feeling of planetary oneness due to the fact that the true geographical entity upon your planet is the planet. Latwii, May 4, 1980.

This morning I took one of our Homecoming attendees to the airport and then ran a couple of errands on the way home. My first stop was as Paul’s Fruit Market to get some food for myself, and then I stopped at Feeder’s Supply to pick up some cat food and some bird seed.

This afternoon the L/L staff and a number of good friends came over, and we all worked to get the tent area and the house back in the proper order. I did a couple loads of laundry to get two of the three bedrooms’ sheets and pillow cases clean and back on the beds. I will finish the third bedroom tomorrow and probably vacuum all three as well. It was so good to work with all of these beautiful people to do this work. It is so precious to have a spiritual family to accomplish work in both the physical and metaphysical sense. I am blessed in so many ways.

Use The Light Of Christ

I am of that principle known to you as the consciousness of Jesus the Christ and I greet you in full and divine love.

This morning, as we sit with you in meditation, we who comfort urge you to feel the love of Christ and the light of Christ as it is with you at this moment.

Know that the light of Christ moving through your eyes shall enable them truly to see.

Know that through the perfect light of Jesus the Christ your ear may be made truly to hear.

Know that as the divine light of the spirit of Christ plays through your mind, disturbances shall be blessed by the addition of light. And the fire of divine love shall burn out the brush fires of petty emotion.

Visualize, acknowledge and use the light of Christ when you open your mouth; when you extend your hand; when you learn and when you teach. For the light of Christ renews all things.

And each thing that is renewed, in turn may then recreate that which seems, in this light, to be able to become more blessed and more whole, more at balance and more at peace.

May the light, the love, the joy and the peace of Jesus Christ be with you now and evermore. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. The 102 quote today comes from Chapter Five and the concept of company activities—making a home and family at work:

Company activities—making a home and family at work

“Those of like mind which together seek shall far more surely find.” Ra, 83.17

This quote from Ra gives us a good idea as to what kind of enhanced opportunities are available to people in their work environment when they blend their energies together in an harmonic manner. This takes the concept of the team further until it is like a family. No matter what kind of work is being accomplished, if people can become equal partners in the process of deciding what to do, why to do it, and how to do it, then the talents of each person will be utilized to their fullest potential. This is a model for the workplace that is the opposite of the traditional authority flowing from the top management down to the lowly workers who are valued only by how well they take and carry out orders. Q’uo mentions how this type of a workplace can be transformed into a spiritual environment:

In the yellow-ray energy center, there is the opportunity to expand the energies of the One Creator upon the level of the group. The entities that are united in a certain fashion that allows them to share a commonality that is expressed within the group, such as the home, or family, the school, the workplace, the team, and so forth. These energies, in the positive sense, are utilized in order to share the abilities of the group in what you might call the “training wheels phenomenon” that will later become, if the fourth-density harvest is achieved by the society, the social memory complex. In the yellow-ray energy center, however, before that complex forms, there is the opportunity to begin to relate to other groups as if there was a common goal or feature between what, in negative polarity, is seen as competing groups.

Thus, in the positive sense, the entities share that which is theirs, that which is unique to them, with that which is needed by others in a group sense, so that two groups then become much likened unto one group. In this positive sense then, each group becomes, in effect, the other group, so that there is one group as a result. Q’uo, September 7, 2019.

It is fitting that such a cooperative workplace would be occurring now as our Earth is moving into the fourth density of love and understanding. The competitive consciousness that has long influenced the manner of people’s thinking as to how to behave towards each other is now expanding into cooperative consciousness. Such cooperative consciousness sees the intrinsic value of each human being as having the consciousness of the Creator within the open heart, and that heart gives freely in unconditional love. Q’uo speaks to the quality of the open heart and suggests how we may aid it in all of our endeavors, including making the workplace like unto a home:

As your maturity has brought you away from direct experience with the birth family and as life has also brought you past having to deal with the more difficult aspects of the marriage family, it is time now in your incarnation for the difficulties to focus on the work family.

How may you be most skillful in encouraging yourself to see these difficulties as the agents of maturity, those agents that will help you become stronger in your yellow ray? Each entity must work with this for herself. And perhaps it is enough for us to say to you that as long as you continue to seek to see the Creator in every entity whom you meet, you cannot go wrong.

This entity often asks herself, “Where is the love in this moment?” My sister, when you ask yourself, “Where is the love in this moment,” as concerns your yellow-ray work environment, you may find that the love in the moment must come from you. Therefore, see yourself as a creature of love that is faithful and confident, because she knows that this situation has been given to her that she may grow and become stronger, wiser and more loving. Q’uo, January 7, 2008.

As we are able to transform our own perceptions of who we are and connect with the “love in this moment” our lives in general and our workplace in particular become like unto a family of love. This way of living and thinking becomes a transformative experience so that our workplace can become a spiritual family that extends itself in a wider and wider influence.

This is the wave of the future for all human endeavors. Everyone in the shared work environment will be seen as valuable workers in all levels of interaction in the social memory complex now forming on planet Earth. Thus it is hoped all shall become Players on the Enhanced Gameboard of life. 

This morning we were able to enjoy presentation on the topics of The Miracle of Self-Healing, Entheogens & Their Role in Spirituality, Meditation and the Mystical Path, and Love in 3D.

This afternoon we enjoyed presentations on the topics of the Seven-Stringed Instrument: Plucking Harmony, Tone Poems, & other Sonifications, and Working with the Tree of Life. We ended our Homecoming Gathering with a channeling session.

Be Christ

I am the spirit that is meek, the heart that is humble, and the hand that is turned to service. I come to you as the spirit of the infinite love of Jesus the Christ.

Reach out your hand. You see before you an illusion. Yet within the illusion of that hand is warm flesh and blood, a tool and resource for the manifestation of this humble spirit of love.

Open your mouth and give voice. You may give voice in manifestation of the love of Christ. It is not necessary to be loud, dramatic and strident to know within that the infinite love of Christ goes before you and behind you and upon either side and that your stretched-out hand, therefore, though meek, has all the infinite power of the love of Christ.

Be Christ in manifestation to those who are seeking and hungering for the truth.

We leave you in the peace that passes all understanding; in the love of Jesus the Christ, now and forever. 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.

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 102 quote comes from Chapter Five and the concept of the team—finding synergy with the people at work:

The “Team”—finding synergy with people at work

If a team entails people working together to reach a common goal, it would seem that most people who would be part of a team would have the opportunity to be of service to others by the very nature of their interaction with others on the team. I think that this would be particularly true in the work place as the goal of such work would be to produce some product or service that could be sold and provide each person on the team a means of financial support. It would also be most helpful if the product or service that was provided by the team was such as to truly be helpful to those who would purchase it.

The various members of the team in the workplace would ideally each have specific functions to perform in order for the team to be most effective in reaching its goals. This kind of teamwork would require that each member be capable of performing its particular part of the work in a way acceptable to the team. Each member would also need to be able to clearly communicate with other members of the team as a kind of grease to the wheels of smooth functioning. Q’uo gave some inspired advice as to how we may communicate in a synergistic way with the fellow members of the workplace team:

Beyond all considerations, the chief lessons of the enterprise have always to do with accepting love from others and giving love to others without pride, vanity or feelings of unworthiness. The work that each of you does in truly entering into the energies of each of you will create creative pathways that will link in a more, shall we say, telepathic or whole-concept level so that the synergy of energy fields becomes consciously validated by belief in the opinion of those present, thus freeing those energy exchanges between each to take place at an enhanced rate. Q’uo, March 7, 2002.

Sports teams are another kind of work that would have a similar function, as the goal would be to exercise power over other teams so that the victory would belong to only one team. That is the nature of both businesses and team sports as both participate in attempting to be more successful that their competitors. Both are players on the flat gameboard of life and need to be able to communicate with fellow team members in a clear and practical way in order to achieve their goals. However, people in both these areas of activity could also use their status within their careers to work in service-to-others ways within the larger community such as supporting various charitable organizations, help with disaster relief, becoming advocates for the homeless, and supporting programs like foster parenting. Ra spoke of the more restricted kind of sports team efforts as often utilizing the orange-ray chakras:

Others of your gadgets may be seen to be tools whereby the entity explores the capabilities of its physical or mental complexes and in some few cases, the spiritual complex, thus activating the orange ray in what you call your team sports and in other gadgets such as your modes of transport. These may be seen to be ways of investigating the feelings of power; more especially, power over others or a group power over another group of other-selves.

Any time we engage in team sports we are, as Ra said, “investigating the feelings of power” because the objective of any sport is to win the game just as the team in the workplace would like to create more sales. I would say that most of the time the exercise of this power over another team is done in the spirit of friendly competition without any negative thoughts of creating injury or any type of negative polarity. Of course it is possible that certain team members may take a different stance as we all are unique beings with our own expressions of purpose and power in our life patterns.

The same situation would apply to those fans who back their teams by attending their games and cheering for them. The term “fan” is short for “fanatic”, so I can easily imagine as a fan it could become possible to harbor less-than-loving thoughts for the other team and their fans. All of these exercises of power over others in team sports or workplace teams are explorations of the nature of how to relate to others in the overall picture of our life patterns. The more mature souls would find it possible to love their opponents or business competitors as another version of themselves and be gracious in victory and in defeat on the sports field and within the life pattern. Q’uo had some inspiring words to offer regarding expanding our concept of the purpose of teams:

In the yellow-ray energy center, there is the opportunity to expand the energies of the One Creator upon the level of the group. The entities that are united in a certain fashion that allows them to share a commonality that is expressed within the group, such as the home, or family, the school, the workplace, the team, and so forth. These energies, in the positive sense, are utilized in order to share the abilities of the group in what you might call the “training wheels phenomenon” that will later become, if the fourth-density harvest is achieved by the society, the social memory complex. In the yellow-ray energy center, however, before that complex forms, there is the opportunity to begin to relate to other groups as if there was a common goal or feature between what, in negative polarity, is seen as competing groups.

Thus, in the positive sense, the entities share that which is theirs, that which is unique to them, with that which is needed by others in a group sense, so that two groups then become much likened unto one group. In this positive sense then, each group becomes, in effect, the other group, so that there is one group as a result. Q’uo, September 17, 2019.

Whatever work we do as a team, whether in business or sports, is a means of coming together to achieve a commonly held goal. Q’uo called this the “training wheels phenomenon” and is simply a way in which we can pursue our spiritual path in being of service to others. This is the journey players that become Players on the Enhanced Gameboard of Life.

This morning the presentations began on a variety of topics such as Compassion, 4D Practicum & Prophecy, Edgar Cayce and The Law of One, the Power of Sound and Music for Healing, an Improv Workshop, I Love you A Thousand Forty-Four, AI & The Law of One, and The Early Days of L/L Research with Don, Carla, & Jim. It always amazes me how our Homecoming folks are so open-hearted and service-to-others oriented.

Hunger And Hope

I am the spirit of the living Christ and I greet you in the full consciousness of love.

This instrument has been bewildered, as we have flooded the instrument with images of hunger, poverty, entities without homes, without shelter, without clothing, and without hope.

This is a part of the perfect beauty of your illusion. This is that which may be found, not just in other places, but in yours. The spirit of Christ speaks to the world in love, in peace, and in service. What shall you do this day to acknowledge that your very selves are hungry?

Seek in your heart to find a call to renew, revive and replenish the concept of hope, for you are the spirit of Christ in the world today. Your hands give heavenly food as well as provender.

Above all hunger and disorder, may you see the overriding and underlying peace of Jesus Christ, 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 that 102 quote comes from Chapter Five and the concept of artists and craftspeople:

Artists and craftspeople

Marcy Pederson gave this working definition of artists and craftspeople:

“Craft is always exercised upon something and aims at transformation of this into that. The craftsman understands what he wants to make. The craftsman’s skill is his knowledge of the means that are used to transform something and this mastery of those means. A fabricator understands what machines and tools are needed to transform metal into a desired shape. A seamstress is a master of a sewing machine. We typically think of trades like blacksmith when we think of craftsman. They are defined by the means they use.

The artist uses technique and has a form of skill like the craftsman. Skill does not make an artist, but a technician. With skill a technician can become an artist. An artist can also have a specific end in mid. They are not creating for a single purpose. They don’t know what is going to happen until it happens.”

So, the major difference between an artist and a craftsman seems to be that the artist creates a unique work each time that they feel the inspiration to create. A craftsperson will more likely repeat a previous standardized creation when they feel the desire to practice their trade. Either the artist or the craftsperson can be totally service to others in their work as their positive intentions may shine through their creations, which may also be functional and/or beautiful. The artist and the craftsperson each fulfill needs of the public in general, and each can be highly polarized in service to others depending upon their own personal spiritual journeys and how they view the universe around them.

And now, from a purely spiritual point of view, Q’uo gave us more of an overview of what it means to engage in artistic productions:

We speak, as we believe you intended us to speak, strictly of those artists who must express that which is within them and who are irresistibly drawn to perform and to share their gifts. Whether or not such entities would think of offering their gifts in a spiritual sense, it is, indeed, a spiritual exercise by its very definition. For in order to make contact with the creative impulse, the entity must move into the open heart or green-ray chakra and thereby move upwards into the ray of communication, the blue ray, and the ray of faith, indigo ray, and thenceforth to move into the violet ray and the gateway to intelligent infinity.

An artist is moving his attention into a place where he is able to draw from beyond that gateway the inspiration and information needed in order to be able to express the visions that he has seen and the perceptions he has garnered in his own way. He is as the treasure hunter who finds treasure and then must share it. Q’uo, April 26, 2008.

In this quote Q’uo uses the term “creative impulse” that exists within all true artists. This creative impulse is accessed, according to Q’uo, not so much through a conscious desire or choice but through that which is “irresistible” within one who has the creative impulse. It may not be a totally consciously chosen process but one which engages the green-ray open heart, the blue ray of communication and inspiration, the indigo-ray of faith and then to the contact with intelligent infinity which is the Creator moving through the creative process to produce whatever kind of artistic endeavor is native to the artist.

In this kind of spiritual process the artist is actually making a conscious or subconscious contact the with Creator within and the produces the fruits of that contact in one form or another, depending upon the type of art being produced: sculpture, paintings, poetry, prose, dance, music, or any creative combination of such artistic endeavors.

In the following quote those of Q’uo share the type of inspiration that can guide any creative process:

The process of channeling, creatorship, authorship or composer-ship is that of the tempering fire of circumstance, the quality, purity, intensity, crystallization and balance of the desires of the deep heart for the truth of the self and the truth of one’s service, and the quality of what this instrument would call alertness or awakeness. These are the tools which open the channels of creativity. There is a balance between intuition and guidance and the more artisan-like craft of learning, discovery analysis and synthesis which must needs find an inner bridge in order that the heart and the mind work together as a portion of an extended spiritual family, shall we say. We are that portion of your guidance that we naturally occupy by virtue of the shared soul stream. However, as we have often mentioned, our guidance comes more in the form of a kind of carrier wave that deepens and intensifies or sharpens in delineation the details of the personality shell’s own processes of dreaming, envisioning and seeking. Q’uo, December 19, 2002.

So Q’uo suggests that in any creative process that we might engage in we are either consciously or subconsciously accessing guidance from inner sources or even entities such as those of Q’uo to inspire us to expand our own creative abilities. It would make sense that our desire to create something of beauty and inspiration, whether a song, a painting, the creation of a garden, a dance, a poem or any other inspiring sharing of our energy, would be like unto a calling to unseen entities to aid us in reflecting the Creator in our work for others.

Here, Q’uo gives us another technique for awakening the creative process within our being:

As you continue asking for help, concepts shall come to you. We encourage you to trust them and to allow new ways and thoughts and strategies to roll around within your mind in a way that does not tag them and order them, but instead allows them to roll and to tumble together, for you are asking of yourself that which is illogical and paradoxical. These two elements almost guarantee that you are on the right track, spiritually speaking, but it does mean that you cannot apply the rigors of intellectual order to your creative process. Rather, let the concepts which arise play like puppies, tumbling and rolling and allow, rather than force, your strategy to unfold. Q’uo, October 20, 2009.

I would say that engaging in the creative process is definitely the work of the Player on the Enhanced Gameboard of Life.

This morning the L/L staff and a few friends finished the setup of the tent and in the house as well. I got our sign for “Diagonal Parking” put up next to the pet cemetery, and I used my backpack blower to blow leaves around the house into a pile so I could put them into a garbage can. I also got a bamboo privacy fence installed in front of the Porta Potty that will be close to the tent.

Our Homecoming Gathering will start at 5 pm this evening with a meal that everyone will share in the circle under the tent.

The Spirit Of Love

I am the spirit of Him who comes in the name of the Lord.

All things dwell within the love of God. The love of God is a power which emanates from each living thing. Long before one reaches another person the two sendings of love have intertwined and greeted each other.

There are those whose sensitivity causes them to find pain in the contact with the love of the Creator and pain in the contact with other souls. For the love of God is a strong and vibrant thing and one which removes one’s isolation completely.

Yet even in the midst of isolated countryside, that consciousness which emanates and exudes as the love of the Creator is sent out by each creation of the Father, each flower, grass and tree.

There are some sensitive souls who must then seek the cave. There the emanations of stone, water and air are silent or at least quiet enough that the soul who works alone may find rest.

We urge each to open the doors of acceptance to the life of the spirit of love in people and places and circumstances, but even if we speak to one within a cave we know that the love of God in Christ shall work with you at your chosen speed.

Peace be with you, now and always. Amen.
