The Camelot Journal

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn quote comes from October 18, 1978:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I greet you in the love and the light of our infinite Creator. This evening we are far from you and are using transmitting equipment of our own design in order to share our thoughts with you, for we have, shall we say, business elsewhere on your planet at this time, as there are some of what you would call crises, and there are times when those of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator must group together in certain patterns of thought and form in order to maximize the sending of Love to those troubled people upon planet Earth. We say to you at this time that your planet has never been very much closer to what you would term armed conflict, and we ask that in your meditations you realize that you are the Light of the world and that that which is you is of infinite help. Each atom of Love, shall we say, is infinitely strong. We do not ask you to pray for peace but only seek to be loving by yourself and as part of this group which functions as the Light center, and that Light will help.

We greet those who are new to this group, and we ask you this evening to declare your independence from the world of man. My friends, you live on a planet which is more beautiful than most of the other planets of your density in your entire galaxy. You have a greater variety of wildlife, of trees, of plants, of things that swim in your water and fly in your atmosphere. Each of these things, my friends, is a creation of the Creator, and each acts in service and Love and in balance expressing that instinct, that which is Love. And so, my friends, it is given to you to do, and you are that which is infinite, that which is eternal, and thus you have been given that which is freedom, and you do not need to act on instinct.

Hatonn wanted to let us know how they were communicating with this group. They began by saying we are far from you and are using transmitting equipment of our own design in order to share our thoughts with you, for we have business elsewhere on your planet at this time, as there are some crises now, and there are times when the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator must group together in order to maximize the sending of Love to those troubled people upon Earth, so we say that your planet has never been closer to armed conflict, and we ask that in your meditations you realize that you are the Light of the world, and that which is you is of infinite help, for each atom of Love is infinitely strong, but we do not ask you to pray for peace but only seek to be loving as part of this group which functions as the Light center as that Light will help. Then Hatonn said we greet those who are new to this group, and we ask you this evening to declare your independence from the world of man because you live on a planet which is more beautiful than most of the other planets of your density and in your entire galaxy since you have a greater variety of wildlife, of trees, of plants, of things that swim in your water and fly in your atmosphere, and each of these things is a creation of the Creator, and each acts in service and Love and in balance expressing that instinct, that which is Love, so it is given to you to do, and you are that which is infinite, and you have been given that which is freedom, and you do not need to act on instinct. In 60.24, Ra mentioned the Confederation’s use of equipment to communicate with groups at some times:

Questioner: What are these bases used for by those from elsewhere?

Ra: I am Ra. These bases are used for the work of materialization of needed equipment for communication with third-density entities and for resting places for some equipment which you might call small craft. These are used for surveillance when it is requested by entities. Thus, some of the, shall we say, teachers of the Confederation speak partially through these surveillance instruments along computerized lines, and when information is desired and those requesting it are of the proper vibratory level the Confederation entity itself will then speak.

And thus, in your own strength and your own freedom, you have gone, as a race, and have created a world which does not, in any great extent, express the Love and service that is the essence of the Creator. And as you take in those things which are about you in the creation of man, you leave the perspective that is yours by right, that is yours by nature. You leave your simplicity and become intellectual and complex, and you find yourself speaking many words and doing many, many things and expressing yourself in many, many ways that are not totally expressive of the Love of the Creator.

Nor do we say, my friends, that this is a fault of yours, for this is a lesson that has been drilled into you by a race who came before you, and that was a lesson drilled into them by those who came before them. Misunderstanding piled upon misunderstanding, and so your species has gone far down the road to separation, to world building, to both physical and mental emotional and spiritual, and the walls that separate you, my friends, seem incredibly permanent. It is time, my friends, to understand that you can declare your independence from the world of man. This does not necessarily mean physical absence from the world of man, not physical reclusiveness from its activities. It means only that you commit yourself to understanding the lessons of the creation, those things that are true and all about you, those things that are inclusive in seed and flower, in sunshine, in harvest, and in the infinite and totally balanced cycles of your natural world.

Then Hatonn said in your strength and freedom, as a race, you have created a world which does not express the Love and service that is the essence of the Creator, and as you take in those things which are about you in the creation of man, you leave the perspective that is yours by right and by nature, and you leave your simplicity and become intellectual and complex, and you find yourself speaking many words, and doing many things, and expressing yourself in many ways that are not expressive of the Love of the Creator. Now Hatonn said nor do we say that this is a fault of yours, for this is a lesson that has been drilled into you by a race who came before you, and that was a lesson drilled into them by those who came before them, so misunderstanding piled upon misunderstanding, and your species has gone far down the road to separation, to world building: to physical, mental/emotional, spiritual, and the walls that separate you seem permanent, for it is time to understand that you can declare your independence from the world of man, but this does not mean physical absence from the world of man, or physical reclusiveness from its activities, but it means that you commit yourself to understanding the lessons of the creation, those things that are true and all about you, those things that are inclusive in seed and flower, in sunshine, in harvest, and in the infinite and totally balanced cycles of your natural world. On July 25, 1976, Hatonn revealed how we can escape the world of man:

And how can you find this fountainhead of Love, my friends? As always, we recommend meditation. For clever as men’s minds are, they are often too clever and in their cleverness, men have devised many strange contortions of Love. And in meditation, my friends, as you lay down these man-made concepts and open yourselves to your deeper identity, the basic reality of the Love that created you can make contact with you in your conscious mind. And as you come in contact with Love as it really is, you gain strength to be able to look the world of man-made emotions in the face and say, “Ah, but I know a deeper and truer way to express Love.” If you touch base with this creative Love on a regular basis, little by little your being will begin to transmit that Love, and you will become what you seek to become, an instrument for the Love of the Creator.

One among you, who is a master known to you as Jesus, said that, “I and my Father are one.” “I,” my friends, and “my Father.” Who, my friends, is “I?” Is it a man known to you as Jesus? But did he mean, instead, that all of us and the Father are one? We ask you to contemplate the oneness of the creation. I and my Father are not two, are not separate. There are no walls between us. I need only open that inner door of consciousness and listen, and in the silence, that which has been called in your holy works that still small voice, may speak to you. That which it speaks may not be expressed in words or many, many times in actions, but only in a sense of wholeness, of harmony, of balance, of that simple thing which we call Love that has created not only us, my friends, but all that there is. All the stars that your greatest telescope can see. All of these things, my friends, are “I.” Place, time, personalities are all one. You cannot be anywhere but in the creation. But you can act, my friends, for you have the power of eternity within you.

How shall you act, my friends? We ask you…

[Pause during the interruption of a telephone call.]

I am Hatonn. We are sorry for the interruption. We will continue.

We ask you to contemplate, my friends, those two creations of the Creator and that of the sons of the Creator, and that you ask yourselves which expresses Love? And further, to ask yourselves how that Love can be translated into the creation of man. For each of you, my friends, in each day, can express Love in the creation of man, for there are no walls so high that Love cannot express Itself through. There are no doors that cannot be opened with Love. And you have that Love, my friends. It is not yours by personality or by heritage in the human sense. It is yours because you are part of the Creator, and the Creator created you in Love, and there is that within you which is perfect and perfectly expressive of Love. We ask you to contact that part of yourself which is the whole creation, which has the wisdom of the whole creation. We ask that you do this by inner listening, by service to others, or by any means which, for you, is your own unique method of finding the truth. We, as each of you are aware, do not consider that we ourselves are authorities on the truth but only those who have reached our hands out to you in Love to generate a desire within you, a desire that may take spark, so that you desire to find out for yourselves what is the truth.

Hatonn went on to say Jesus, said that: “I and my Father are one,” so who is “I?” Is it a man known as Jesus? But did He mean that all of us and the Father are one?” We ask you to contemplate the oneness of the creation, for I and my Father are not separate since there are no walls between us, so I need only open that inner door of consciousness and listen, and in the silence, that which has been called in your holy works that still small voice, may speak to you, and that which it speaks may not be expressed in words or in actions, but only in harmony and of that simple thing which we call Love that has created not only us but all the stars that your greatest telescope can see, and all of these things are “I”, for place, time, personalities are all one, and you cannot be anywhere but in the creation, but you can act, for you have the power of eternity within you. Hatonn continued by saying we ask you to contemplate those two creations of the Creator and that of the people of the Creator, and that you ask yourselves which expresses Love, and to ask yourselves how that Love can be translated into the creation of humanity, for each of you can express Love in the creation of humanity, for there are no walls so high that Love cannot express Itself through them, and there are no doors that cannot be opened with Love, so you have that Love, but it is yours because you are part of the Creator, and the Creator created you in Love, and there is that within you that which is expressive of Love, so we ask you to contact that part of yourself which has the wisdom of the whole creation, and we ask that you do this by inner listening, by service to others, or by any means which is your unique method of finding the truth, for as each of you is aware, do not consider that we are authorities of the truth but only those who have reached our hands out to you in Love to generate a desire within you, a desire that may take spark, so that you desire to find out for yourselves what is the truth. On June 29, 1986, Hatonn spoke of

You have heard countless times that the Creator manifested Itself as Love—but what is Love? You know that you are in pursuit of something called truth—but what is truth? The nature of Love is such that it has created consciousness that is self-conscious. Each of you is Love, thus each of you is the Creator. As the Creator is Love, so therefore are you Love. How then, we ask, does Love seek truth?

Love chooses between Love of self and Love of other self. We speak to those who are upon the path in which Love is manifested as Love of self and other self as self. If that were a mathematical equation, all the selves would be struck out and what you would have left with is the equation: service to others’ self is Love manifested towards other selves. We ask that you ponder this not once, but many times, for the truth in this statement is not immediately apparent. In no way do we suggest a lack of Love for self; we suggest only that other selves are loved as the self.

I would like to pause at this time so that Laitos may speak. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

I am Laitos, and I greet each of you in the love and light of the infinite Creator. I was attempting to contact other instruments, however, they are not receptive, and we will use this instrument. We thank you for this opportunity to share our thoughts with you and assure you that it is a very great privilege to tell you that Love is what we feel for you, and that is why we are here. It is our special privilege among the Confederation of Planets to work with those who desire what we call conditioning. We would go around the room, shall we say, and attempt with each of you to make a functioning contact with you so that you may feel our presence.

We assure you that verbal channeling is not our only reason for contact, but it is our special privilege to work with each meditator in strengthening his or her own meditative vibrations. We will start with the one known as H and, shall we say, work our way around the room, if you will be patient. We are in the room with you and will be with each of you. I am Laitos.

[Pause]

Laitos here, my friends. We thank you for being able to work with you. We have attempted to give strength to heal certain physical ailments, shall we say, that were bothering those in the room and hope that we have helped. Our Light is with you, and we ask you to summon us any time that you may desire our contact. Let us say to you, as always, our contact is a help to achieve contact with that which is truth. We are only helpers, and it is our great, great honor to aid you. The truth, my friends, is inside you. Inside you, my friends, lies all that there is. And with that thought, I will leave you. I am Laitos. Adonai.

[Pause]

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I am again with this instrument known to you as Carla. Thank you for your patience. At this time, I would open the meeting to questions.

[Pause]

Questioner:  [Inaudible] my question.

Hatonn: Go ahead, my brother.

Questioner:  [Inaudible]

Hatonn: We are aware of your question, my brother, and we speak to you in general, although we ask you to understand that due to the free will of each person on the planet, situations are not static and are not dictated by fate but are dictated by the free will of the planetary consciousness. That is why so many of us are here, and that is why so many of those on the inner planes in your own planetary vibrations are in conscious contact with, shall we say, disciples attempting to alleviate, shall we say, the birth pangs of planet Earth.

First we would like to say—and we say this most seriously—it is a great challenge to you and, to a lesser degree, to us, to bring the planet through to 1984, so that it may have its physical changes as they occur, for there are among your people who are leaders who are most bloody-minded and jealous and are liable to destroy the planet by man-made means before nature has had its day. That which is known to you as the physical change of planet Earth, as you well know from your previous research, has already begun taking place and is well underway. What is perhaps not known to you is that groups of people in Light centers like this one, meditating in Love, have managed to alleviate not one but several series of your earthquakes, especially those in your western coast, so that smaller earthquakes happened in quick succession, none of which did the great damage that one earthquake should have done.

Questioner: I understand that the worst earthquake could happen in California?

Hatonn: That is correct. We have for several years been alerting Light groups like your own to the possibility that meditating in Love could alleviate the great stresses of the Earth which are manifesting due to the built-up consciousness of the planetary mind over many generations. Thus, that which can be cataclysm has, so far, been sparing of lives while slowly alleviating the great stresses in the Earth. We go on with this work and know that you also do. There are many stresses; that is only one. To pray, shall we say, for California is not what we ask, but rather, simply that you concentrate on being a loving person and sending your love to the planet as a whole. The planetary consciousness becomes lighter and lighter as it receives the Love generated, first from that Central Sun which is the Creator, but then flowing through people of free will on planet Earth who have good wishes for all on your planet, and the Earth itself begins to feel it. It is perhaps, shall we say, an extreme example of what a physicist would call action at a distance where, by concentrating on small particles, changes in the material world may take place.

These are very gross changes, and yet, if enough of the consciousness of your planet is alerted, even they can be alleviated. Things get worse rather than better, as you know, as you approach the new location in space. And by, perhaps shall we say, 1982 much will have become clear as to whether the natural sector of the creation—in other words, the planet itself—has begun to vibrate successfully in what so many of your poets have called the golden age to come.

Questioner asked: “I understand that the worst earthquake could happen in California?” Hatonn replied by saying that is correct, and we have been alerting Light groups like your own to the possibility that meditating in Love could alleviate the great stresses of the Earth which are manifesting due to the advancing consciousness of the planetary mind over many generations, so that which can be a cataclysm has been sparing lives while alleviating the stresses in the Earth, so we go on with this work and know that you also do, for there are many stresses, and that is only one, so we ask that you concentrate on being a loving person and sending your love to the planet as a whole because the planetary consciousness becomes lighter as it receives the Love generated, first from that Central Sun which is the Creator, but then flowing through people of free will on planet Earth who have good wishes for all on your planet, and the Earth itself begins to feel it, so it is an example of what a physicist would call action at a distance where, by concentrating on small particles, changes in the material world may take place. Hatonn continued by saying these are gross changes, and if enough of the consciousness of your planet is alerted, even they can be alleviated, for things get worse as you approach the new location in space, and by 1982, much will have become clear as to whether the natural sector of the creation—the planet itself—has begun to vibrate successfully in what so many of your poets have called the Golden Age to come. On November 28, 1976, Hatonn spoke of the nature of the Golden Age to come:

It is very important to your people at this time that you seek the knowledge of who you are and what you truly want for your planet, and indeed your whole solar system is at this time progressing into a new area of space and a new vibration of experience. This has been said by so many of your own people that we do but echo this truth. It has even been given a name. Many of your people speak of the Aquarian Age, or the Golden Age. You may join the Age that is to come, that is already becoming apparent, if your vibrations are such that they are in harmony with that vibration. That is what we are here to tell you. That is our purpose here: to share with you our understanding. Our understanding is that we are all created as one being. That one being is in a state of perfect Love and harmony. And that our purpose in this and every experience is to more fully realize and understand the reality of that perfect Love.

Questioner: Is it possible to give a specific date, about, when this can occur?

Hatonn: It is possible, but in order to do this we would subject this channel to a type of information which is highly precarious, and which this instrument does not wish to use. Let me take a moment and speak on this subject which is perhaps not related but important to express. We of the Confederation of Planets are many, and though we are of one spirit we are not one mind, for we are, as you, individuals. Those of the Confederation that believe that it is necessary to warn humankind of the specific dates are doing so. However, this type of information is highly, highly difficult, due to the fact that we are transmitting through time, not space; therefore, our time coordinates are not apparent to us and must be, shall we say, decoded by a computer system which is very much like a complex computer of yours. It is infinitely difficult for us to understand your time system. Therefore, even when our channel remains pure, we are capable of giving incorrect information.

Now let us complicate the picture. Unless we place extreme protection about this channel and use complete control—a type of communication with which you, my brother, are intimately familiar—we cannot protect her from the use of astrals who may or may not have the correct information. For that reason, also, we do not wish to subject an instrument to this type of information unless she desires it.

Questioner: [Inaudible].

Hatonn: We do ask only one thing, and that is that you and all of those in this room attempt to know who you are and what you wish to do, and do it with Love. There are those upon your planet who are capable of receiving specific information, and so they do, but they will show to you that the higher truth is far more important than earthquakes, and fires, and all that you may be subjected to from the physical development of the New Age, will be the spiritual development of the peoples of your planet. To help them, you cannot pray for them but only attempt to become a pure vessel, shall we say, of that which we call Love.

Love is that which is indescribable. It is more strong and powerful than the word would suggest in your language, and certainly you have no other word which is as expressive. We have attempted at times to use the word “desire” to indicate that which communicated life to the cosmos, but desire today among your peoples expresses upon a physical level, and this we do not mean. Thus, we ask that you find Love within you and then open those eyes which are windows to that Love, and let It shine forth to the best of your ability. Do not be sad because you have failed at any moment, but only try again. That is all that we can do.

Questioner’s question was inaudible, but Hatonn began by saying we ask one thing, and that is that you and all of those in this room attempt to know who you are, and what you wish to do, and do it with Love, for there are those upon your planet who are capable of receiving specific information, and so they do, but they will show you that the higher truth is far more important than earthquakes, fires, and all that you may be subjected to, for the physical development of the New Age will be the spiritual development of the people of your planet, so to help them you cannot pray for them but only attempt to become a pure vessel of that called Love. Now Q’uo said Love is that which is indescribable, for it is stronger than the word would suggest in your language, and you have no other word which is as expressive, and we have attempted to use the word “desire” to indicate that which communicated life to the cosmos, but desire today among your people expresses upon a physical level, and this we do not mean, so we ask that you find Love within you and then open those eyes which are windows to that Love, and let It shine forth to the best of your ability, but do not be sad because you have failed at any moment, but only try again. On September 16, 2001, Q’uo spoke of the nature of Love:

This technique of visualization may be used for any kind of healing, whether of the self, of another self, of a people, of a country, of a planet. Wherever there is that which is broken, that which is hurt, that which is injured, healing is possible for mind, for body, for spirit and for the ability to continue where there seems to be little reason. The imagining, the imaging is that which calls for from the deeper levels of the subconscious mind the connection with the one Creator, with the Logos of Love, that enables that Love to move through your being to wherever it is needed. This is a means by which each may avail the self of that ability to open to Love, to give Love, to direct Love, to feel Love, to be Love.

Questioner: I understand that we have a very limited way of knowing creation, and I know that the channel you are using is probably a little tired from making contact, and I appreciate the Love in which you have answered my questions. Thank you.

Hatonn: My brother, it is we that thank you. We are most grateful to you, for it is our only purpose to share with you that which we have learned by experience.

[Pause]

Is there another question?

Questioner: Is the holy shroud of Turin really the cloth that Jesus Christ was wrapped in?

Carla: I don’t know. Everyone is totally silent.

[Pause]

Carla: As a matter of fact, they’re laughing. Just a minute, let me see if I can get anything.

(Carla channeling)

Hatonn: I am with this instrument. We thank you, my sister, for your question. We ask you to understand that clothes are not our greatest interest, and clothes of those who are dead even less so. The one you know of as Jesus is a man of great humor and insight, and the fact that His shroud would be valuable strikes Him as funny. We can only say to you that the ideas of a man are important and not that which has come in contact with His physical body. May we say further that those things which are valued among your peoples as religious relics often appear to be strangely and psychically active, thus giving internal evidence of their reality; but we ask you to understand that there could be no true evidence left by one of the vibration of the master known to you as Jesus, and that it is the thought forms of those who have come after Him and elevated Him to an untrue status that have invested these objects with their apparently unusual nature.

Does that answer your question?

Questioner: Yes, thank you.

Hatonn: We thank you, and we are sorry that we sometimes cannot take seriously those things which are taken seriously among your people. But Love itself, my friends, we take very seriously.

Is there another question?

Questioner: I have a question. Are experiences… difficult situations… always… could be considered karmic in nature? Or just some? Not wanting them themselves, do they have to be necessarily karmically related? And is it important to know the difference, if there is a difference?

I am Hatonn. I am Hatonn. I am Hatonn. We are establishing contact. This instrument was somewhat distracted by the snoring of the one known as B. I am Hatonn. We are aware of your question.

Karma is greatly misunderstood among your people. There are laws which are known to you as karma, and they are simple cause and effect, much as you would understand; but you must also understand that your lives are not completely directed by karma. Primarily, those things which are directed by karma are certain choices that you make having to do with relationships with others and, to a lesser extent, your occupation, or interest, or hobby, shall we say. As an example, we would point out that this particular instrument has strong karmic ties with music and, therefore, in this incarnation she has been powerfully drawn to it for the reason that she has great desire to create beauty through music. This bias was positioned in her by actions in previous incarnations and has affected her life. You will notice that there is no other person involved in this, but it is a simple cause and effect coming through the incarnation.

Karma is often good rather than bad; but, further, it should be understood that the day-to-day incidents of your life are, rather than karma, a type of random number system which gives you a path in each situation in each day. You have your choices to make, and they have not to do with karma but with love. Frequently, the most difficult problems are, indeed, karmic, but they have to do with a relationship which was in some way unbalanced in a previous incarnation. In that case, we ask that you attempt with all your being to stop the wheel of karma.

Questioner asked: “Are experiences… difficult situations… always… could be considered karmic in nature?” Hatonn began by saying karma is misunderstood among your people, for there are laws which are known to you as karma, and they are simple cause and effect, but you must understand that your lives are not completely directed by karma, so those things which are directed by karma are choices that you make having to do with relationships with others and your occupation or interests, and as an example, we would point out that Carla has strong karmic ties with music, and in this incarnation she has been powerfully drawn to it for the reason that she has great desire to create beauty through music, and this bias was positioned in her by actions in previous incarnations and has affected her life, and you will notice that there is no other person involved in this, but it is a simple cause and effect coming through the incarnation. Hatonn went on to say karma is often good rather than bad, but it should be understood that the day-to-day incidents of your life are, rather than karma, a type of random number system which gives you a path in each situation in each day. You have your choices to make, and they have not to do with karma but with love.

You have your choices to make, and they have not to do with karma but with love. Frequently, the most difficult problems are, indeed, karmic, but they have to do with a relationship which was in some way unbalanced in a previous incarnation. In that case, we ask that you attempt with all your being to stop the wheel of karma. On April 16, 2000, Q’uo spoke of the way of stopping the wheel of karma:

When, through your own personal work and perseverance, you have been able to see that the world about you reflects your attitude back to you, then you are able to open the door to forgiveness, to compassion, to mercy, to understanding, and to those qualities that truly stop the wheel of karma and allow you that progress that you desire: the opening of the heart so that compassion is felt, not just for those about you, but for yourself, for the Creator, and for all of the creation about you.

The way to do this is to forgive. Forgiveness is another word for love of that who seems to be an enemy. To forgive completely is to remove karma from the situation. To love completely is to be free. To love, it is truly said, is to conquer. Therefore, if you find a situation especially difficult, come out of your meditation with the question, “How does this situation look now in the light of meditation?” And with that tool of yours which is perfectly good, and for you to use, known as your mind, objectively and carefully search the situation for the lesson you are to learn. If you find it is karmic, then perhaps you know that which you must do. If you wish to progress as quickly as possible, seize that which you think you must do and do it, whatever pain it may cause you at the time. In alleviating the karma of another, you have shown the greatest Love one can show. To forgive is truly to Love.

Then Hatonn said the way to do this is to forgive because forgiveness is another word for love of those who seem to be an enemy, so to forgive completely is to remove karma from the situation, and to love completely is to be free, so if you find a situation especially difficult, come out of your meditation with the question, “How does this situation look now in the light of meditation?” And with that tool of your mind, carefully search the situation for the lesson you are to learn, and if you find it is karmic, then you know what you must do, so if you wish to progress as quickly as possible, seize that which you think you must do and do it, whatever pain it may cause you at the time because in alleviating the karma of another, you have shown the greatest Love one can show, for to forgive is truly to Love. On April 19, 1996, Q’uo said that to forgive is to give Love:

To forgive is, shall we say, to give Love for whatever has been given to you. Thus, there is no condition other than a relationship and an interaction between entities. The desire to forgive is enough with which to begin. If one places conditions upon the forgiveness, then one is beginning in a fashion which will yet require refinement, for to truly forgive another one must erase all conditions. There is the giving of freedom by removing conditions, the allowing and accepting of free will by removing conditions. The gift freely given is the one with the greatest value, shall we say.

Thus, if you are able to wipe the slate clean within your own heart and mind then you have truly forgiven. There is much of one’s own experience at being forgiven that conditions one as to what it is to forgive and to be forgiven. If you feel that you have accepted another’s definition that no longer fits that which you wish in your own life pattern, then you are free to construct your own definition and to put it into exercise by applying wherever appropriate. And we are aware that within your illusion there is much opportunity for practice.

Does this answer your question, my sister?

Questioner: Yes, thank you.

Hatonn: Is there another question?

[Pause]

Due to the longness of this session, we will pause only a moment to leave you with some last thoughts. We leave you with a few pictures, my friends, such as this instrument has just seen, drawn by the one known as R, the tiny things: the flowers and the trees, and the not so tiny things that have been through the cycle of life and death and are still beautiful. Now the great things, my friends: the mountains, the great seas. Draw back, my friends. See even the greater things; see your beautiful planet with its mists and clouds. Pull back, my friends, until all you can see is the vast creation of the Creator, and let you then know that all within that creation is Love.

I leave you in that Love and that Light.

[Tape ends.]

This morning I drove down to Nashville to visit Anna and keep our 9:30 appointment to visit Cheekwood Gardens to see the various gardens that we weren’t able to see on my visit last month. I knew many of the flowers there, but there were far more that I didn’t know as well as trees and bushes. There were miniature trains running on lengthy tracks in and out of hand-crafted wooded buildings that attracted many children. The stone work was amazing in every area, and I especially appreciated to huge stone turtles that were spouting streams of water out of their mouths and into a pond filled with lily pads and blooms. Then we went to the Graze Restaurant for lunch.

This afternoon we listened to Carla channel Ra is Session #75 where there were discussions about Carla suffering psychic greeting from our fifth-density friend, the magical personality, Carla’s upcoming hospital experience, The Banishing Ritual of the Lesser Pentagram, and the nature of the adept.

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

August 23

It Is A New Day!

I am of the spirit of Jesus the Christ. May the perfect Love of the Father enfold you this day.

Our great tidings are ever new, as are your minds and your hearts. Whether in life or death, whatever process you are experiencing in the valley of the shadow of death, yet still, despite any condition or process of body or mind, in your soul, in your heart, and in your truth are you new.

Do not carry around with you the great burden of self perceived error. For you only need to say, “Forgive me.” It is healing to say those words to one with whom you have had a disagreement.

You are healing still to say, “I have judged you wrongly.” For fear and judgment are the causes of humans offering the opportunity for much agony to each other. It is equally important that you say to yourself, “Forgive me. I have judged in error.”

Rejoice! It is a new day! May you feel the Love that Loves you now, wholly and completely. May you feel the peace that lies in the memory that Love is here. And when you drop away from your physical body, there, in Spirit, shall Love be even more visible.

We leave you in that Love and peace, 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 Hatonn quote comes from October 9, 1978:

(Carla channeling)

I am Latwii, and I greet you in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. As always, we of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator send out blessings and our Love to each of you, and we welcome those who have not sat with this group for awhile. We especially appreciate the opportunity to speak through this channel, for we have not used her for some time, and it is always a pleasure to use you as a channel.

Icome to you because we of Latwii would teach you meditation. Each of us, you see, my friends, has, shall we say, a specialty. Each of us aspires—in intention, in attitude, in personality, shall we say—to serve planetary Earth that makes us specialists in one type of information. And we of Latwii are specialists in a type of information that has to do with a simple process, one which we bring to the people of your planet, one which is centered around meditation, one which also speaks with you: time to recognize who you truly are. In your busy lives, my friends, in all the hurly-burly of your everyday lives, when do you have time to realize who you are? And if you, indeed, think who you are, are you not then judging yourself and asking yourself to be a better person and berating yourself for your failures? This is not what we of Latwii will send you, for we wish to bring you only the Love, the infinite and ever-present Love of the Creator that pours to you like the sun pours its warmth upon your planet.

You humans, my friends, with the creation of humanity, have built walls between yourselves and between you and Love so that you experience the winter, and you become cold in your heart and can feel that the Love is limited between you and your brothers and sisters and between you and the Creator who needs you. But we say to you, my friends, there is a place that is within you in which it is always summer. It is high upon a hill, and to this hill you must climb. You must seek and gently—very gently, my friends—remove your senses from the world around you, from the world around you which may be cold and harsh in its emotions, and step-by-step walk up an inner hill in silence, leaving that part of yourself behind that may in any way feel the tiredness and the toil of your everyday life.

Latwii wanted to teach this group how to meditate. They began by saying I come to you because we would teach you meditation, for each of us has a specialty, and each of us aspires—in intention, in attitude, in personality—to serve planet Earth that makes us specialists in one type of information, and we are specialists in information that has to do with a process which we bring to the people of your planet that is centered around meditation which gives you time to recognize who you truly are, for in your busy lives in all the busyness of your everyday lives, if you think you know who you are, you are judging yourself and asking yourself to be a better person, but this is not what we of Latwii will send you, for we wish to bring you only the infinite and ever-present Love of the Creator that pours upon you like the sun pours its warmth upon your planet. Then Latwii said that you humans, within the creation of humanity, have built walls between yourselves and between you and Love, so that you experience the winter, and you become cold in your heart and can feel that the Love is limited between you and your brothers and sisters, and between you and the Creator who needs you, but we say to you there is a place that is within you in which it is always summer, and it is high upon a hill which you must climb, for you must seek very gently, and remove your senses from the world around you which may be cold and harsh in its emotions, and walk up an inner hill in silence, leaving that part of yourself behind that may feel the tiredness and the toil of your everyday life. On October 14, 1984, Hatonn spoke of the value of seeking the Creator in silence and meditation:

Meditation is a form of reaching within the vast infinity of your own being with the mute question, the question that has no words, and because it has no words and is not in any way articulated, it is the pure question and you will receive the purest answer with it, for you listen in silence just as you ask in silence, and you shall be answered also in silence but with a power that transcends our ability to express that which is creative, peaceful and energetic.

You here seek for nothing less than the key which shall open to you your universe, your creation, your Creator, and in asking for the Light, you ask that which transforms each of you into a source of that Light. The principle is simple, and difficult to grasp because of its simplicity. You are what you seek, therefore the choice of what you seek is all-important.

Cleanse yourself in the waters that you may find in the pond by the hill that you will climb. Dress yourselves in clean, white garments and proceed upward. You will finally be healed in consciousness, my friends. And at the top of that hill is this place. Now sit in the meadow, and listen to the birds sing, and smell the sweet smell of the flowers, and feel the warmth of the sun. This, my friends, is the Creator’s Love. It is infinite. It is omnipresent. It is closer to you than your own breathing and your own thoughts. This is be done to you, my friends. This is our succor. We ask you—find the key to love in yourself, in your daily life.

Then Latwii said cleanse yourself in the waters that you may find in the pond by the hill that you will climb, and dress yourselves in clean, white garments and proceed upward, and you will finally be healed in consciousness, and at the top of that hill is this place, so sit in the meadow, and listen to the birds sing, and smell the sweet smell of the flowers, and feel the warmth of the sun, for this is the Creator’s Love which is infinite and omnipresent, and it is closer to you than your breathing and your thoughts, for this may be done to you since this is our gift, so we ask you to find the key to love in yourself, in your daily life. On June 17, 1984, Latwii spoke of different ways that we may find the Creator’s Love:

The finding of the Creator may occur in various ways. The beginning for some people is to see that Creator and to find the Creator’s Love within another being. Yet each being and each experience that one encounters is a mirror. One will finally see the self within that mirror. If one has been able to see the Creator in that mirror, one may then see the Creator in the self. Others, on the other hand, may begin by finding the Creator within the self and then radiating that image onto the entities and experiences that it encounters.

[Pause]

I am Latwii. The contact with this channel [inaudible] and to touch with each of you is our privilege. We send each of you our Love and our Light, and we leave you, as always, in the Love and the Light that is only the Creator’s, for we all are, my friends, the Creator. Adonai vasu.

[Pause]

I am Hatonn, and I greet you in the Love and the Light of the One Who is All. My friends, we are most pleased that you have included meditation in your plans this evening, for we were aware that your evening is full, and that we have come late. We shall attempt to be brief.

We wish only to tell you tell you the story, my friends, of a seed, a small seed. This seed, my friends, grew deep in the darkness of the soil, responding to its nature and put forth one leaf, and then two, and then three, and then four, and then many, all in good time. And at a certain moment the plant was plucked and eaten, that which was useful, by the standard of the one who planted the seed. We ask you, my friends, to remember that it is not only the seed that is planted that is harvested. We ask you to remember that you may see tension in your own lives as you put forth your leaves, for the seed knows not when the fruit may come, it knows only that the process must go on.

We ask you to have faith in your missions, whatever they may be. We ask that you grow, not judging your leaves because they are not fruits but being in a state of complete joy that you are going forward, that you are producing your leaves, that you are alone, that you are [inaudible]. There are many fruits, my friends, that have been planted by the Creator, and they will all be true and found to be good in their own time. This time is not a time that you can tell. This goodness is not a goodness that you can tell. Thank you for your patience and your confidence in yourselves and your lives.

Hatonn wanted to tell the group a story. They began by saying we wish to tell you the story of a small seed, so this seed grew deep in the darkness of the soil, responding to its nature and put forth one leaf, and then two, and then three, and then four, and then many, all in good time, and at a certain moment the plant was plucked and eaten by the standard of the one who planted the seed, so we ask you to remember that it is not only the seed that is planted that is harvested, but we ask you to remember that you may see tension in your own lives as you put forth your leaves, for the seed knows not when the fruit may come, but it knows only that the process must go on. Then Hatonn said we ask you to have faith in your missions, whatever they may be, and we ask that you grow, not judging your leaves because they are not fruits but being in a state of complete joy that you are going forward, that you are producing your leaves, that you are alone, that you are [inaudible], for there are many fruits that have been planted by the Creator, and they will all be true and found to be good in their own time, but this time is not a time that you can tell, for this goodness is not a goodness that you can tell, so thank you for your patience and your confidence in yourselves and your lives. On July 16, 1989, Q’uo said that we should have faith in our self/mission:

Therefore, we ask you to have faith in your own self when you face repetitive problems. You have simply put yourselves into a situation which is a challenge to love the unlovable; to accept the unacceptable; to return the good for the negative; to be blithely oblivious of the negative, and see the good in all; to retain the hopefulness of close and deep association with nature, both second-density trees, grasses, and blooms, and third-density entities.

Once you have been able to come to the heart of the repetitive pattern you may break it by forgiveness of that which may be forgiven, and by the remembering of the self by the self of the nature of the self. Each of you has, within you, the creation and the Creator. You are entities to be honored. You are all one, and you are all the Creator’s children.

At this time I would ask if there are any questions.

[Pause]

If there are no questions I will leave this instrument. I am known to you as Hatonn. I send my Love to you, and my Light. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning, I used the garden hose and sprayer to clean Stanley of dirt, bird droppings, and bat droppings. Then I used the backpack blower to blow Stanley mostly dry, except for the windows. Then I used shammy cloth to dry the windows including the rear-view mirrors. Then I checked the oil and added about a pint. Lastly, I put at least 32 psi of air in each tire.

This afternoon I went outside and began hand weeding the Ruins Mound and completed the first corner of the flowers.

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

August 22

Do All In Joy

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

Throw off the shackles of sleep and sloth and embrace the day! Nothing is in it that cannot be done with joy and rest in the doing, for the Holy Spirit goes before you to prepare the most blessed way and to offer the most creative counsel.

Seek within, in the silence of a peaceful heart, to see what needs to be done and to find the heart and strength to do it gladly, cheerfully, and with confidence. There is always enough time for that which is necessary. Release that which is not necessary, for if there is not time there is not necessity, in the situation for which you have wished, on the level of your being which leads you to pastures of peace.

See the moving of the Spirit in that which cannot be done as well as that which is done, for though the human mind wishes to do all, yet the Spirit guides in the selection of the work of Love.

May you go in peace, this day and ever. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn quote comes from September 11, 1978:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. As the sea creature grows he becomes too large for his previous shell and creates for himself a larger one. And when in the course of time he again grows, he then creates a larger shell and so on in a beautiful and unending spiral until such time as he has no need whatsoever for any physical vehicle, the consciousness having left his form. Then, my friends, all the shells are empty, having served their purpose.

There are two distinct stages to the development of your mental vehicle. In the first stage it is primarily important that you constantly be aware that in each situation there is freedom, and you are not iron-bound by any restrictions from the outside. In order to fashion this awareness, it is in this stage necessary that you construct for yourself the larger mental shell, the larger home in which to grow. Each time that you find that a situation is impressing you as limiting or difficult, it is time for inner work, my friend, in which you explore and discover the larger and the most spacious mental atmosphere that is necessary for your balance.

There is a certain point in your development when you will find that you do not need the shell at all, but instead in the vulnerable body of consciousness you may swim out into the waters of the universe and merge with all that there is. In that moment, my friends, you will have discovered that there is no need for any vehicle whatsoever, for all things are one. And as your home is the universe and as all things are one, no protection is necessary. We are aware that this second stage is for the most part a very distant goal. And yet, we wish you to know that it does exist, and that within it is a larger reality which in good time will supersede the limitations and the difficulties of your present state of consciousness. Meanwhile, enlarge your shell, my friends, through meditation, and let contemplation open yourself within. For the world without only seems to press in upon you. In reality it’s pressing upon itself and you are free!

Hatonn begins by discussing the nature of our mental vehicle. They said there are two stages to the development of our mental vehicle, and in the first stage it is important that we be aware that in each situation there is freedom, and we are not bound by any restrictions from the outside, so in order to fashion this awareness, it is in this stage necessary that we construct for ourself the larger home in which to grow, for each time that we find that a situation is impressing us as difficult, it is time for inner work in which we discover the most spacious mental atmosphere that is necessary for our balance. Haton continued by saying there is a point in our development when we will find that we do not need the shell, but instead in the vulnerable body of consciousness we may swim out into the waters of the universe and merge with all that there is, and in that moment we will have discovered that there is no need for any vehicle, for all things are one, and as our home is the universe, and as all things are one, no protection is necessary, for Hatonn is aware that this second stage is for a distant goal, yet they wish us to know that it does exist, and that within it is a larger reality which in good time will supersede the limitations and the difficulties of our present state of consciousness, so meanwhile, we can enlarge our shell through meditation, and let contemplation open ourself within, for the world without seems to press in upon us, but in reality it’s pressing upon itself, and we are free! On June 29, 1986, Hatonn said that we are free:

You are given freedom in totality. There is no holding back upon the part of the Creator; there are no hidden loopholes or clauses. You are free. You are free to do nothing. You are free to work diligently upon a personal agenda which has no contact with other selves. You are free to create a rigid agenda in which things for the self and things for the other self are compartmented. You are free to throw yourself into service of other selves at every available opportunity, whether service is requested or not. And finally, you are free to leave yourself open to the potential for the opportunity of being of service to others whenever that opportunity is offered.

We are enjoying this contact and find that transfer of information is very smooth at this time. We would like to leave this instrument now and use the instrument known as N.

I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

(N channeling)

I am Hatonn. [Rest of N’s channeling is inaudible.]

(Carla channeling)

Hatonn: I am with this instrument, and again I greet you in love and light. At this time, if you have a question, I would request that you ask it.

Questioner: Hatonn, hi, it’s been a while. I’ve been reading a book in which it states that a man named Timothy Leary has said that the discovery of the DNA was a very, very important scientific and spiritual discovery. I wonder if you could comment on its importance or non-importance.

Hatonn: I am with the instrument, and I greet you, my brother, and prefer that we are never away from you as you think of us and question our existence, yet always send us your love. We always send you ours, and we never question your existence.

Questioner: [Laughing] I guess I owe you one. I don’t really question your existence. I question your form.

Hatonn: I am with the instrument. That, my brother, is a separate question. We will attempt to answer the question on DNA, for it is an interesting one and indeed central to an understanding of the essential nature of evolution. For evolution is of a unitary nature and is not physical as opposed to metaphysical. For all things function in a certain way, which is the way of, shall we say, the broken circle or the spiral. When the Creator sent all things in darkness to begin the great trip back to the Creator, It defined the infinite circle and yet, as we climb from cycle to cycle, we seem to be moving and indeed we are moving within the parameters of what we may call the spiritual journey. But at the end of the journey, you will find that we have been describing not a spiral but a circle. To understand the building block of your physical vehicle is to begin to get a model also for the building blocks of the journey towards the Light.

We begin to see that which is physical as an extremely complex but completely understandable and programmable series of bits of information which are capable of reduplication and progression in space and in time. That which is programmable is re-programmable, and so evolution on a physical level has its existence. It is a simple truth to realize that the nature of your spiritual journey, of the journey of your star system, of the journey of your galaxy, and of the journey of the universe, as you know it, progresses along a similar series of programmable and re-programmable cycles. What your scientists have not yet discovered is that there is a purpose behind the existence of consciousness, whether it be the consciousness of a cell, the consciousness of a being, of a race, of a star system, of a galaxy, or of a universe. Without the understanding of this purpose, those of your scientific community who deal with the genetic and that what is called recombinant research, may act irresponsibly and yet, this has been done before and its consequences and planetary karma have been reaped, and yet, my friends, the cycle goes on.

Questioner asked: “I’ve been reading a book in which it states that a man named Timothy Leary has said that the discovery of the DNA was a very, very important scientific and spiritual discovery. I wonder if you could comment on its importance or non-importance.” Hatonn began by saying they will attempt to answer the question on DNA, for it is an interesting one and central to an understanding of the nature of evolution, for evolution is of a unitary nature and is not physical as opposed to metaphysical, for all things function in a certain way, which is the way of the spiral, for when the Creator sent all things in darkness to begin the great trip back to the Creator, It defined the infinite circle and yet, as they climb from cycle to cycle, they are moving within the parameters of what they call the spiritual journey, but at the end of the journey, we will find that they have been describing not a spiral but a circle, and to understand the building block of our physical vehicle is to begin to get a model also for the building blocks of the journey towards the Light. Then Hatonn said that they begin to see that which is physical as a complex but an understandable and programmable series of bits of information which are capable of progression in space and in time, and that which is programmable is re-programmable, so evolution on a physical level has its existence, for it is a simple truth to realize that the nature of our spiritual journey, our star system, of our galaxy, and of the journey of the universe progresses along a similar series of programmable and re-programmable cycles, and what our scientists have not discovered is that there is a purpose behind the existence of consciousness, whether it be the consciousness of a cell, the consciousness of a being, of a race, of a star system, of a galaxy, or of a universe, so without the understanding of this purpose, those of our scientific community who deal with the genetic and recombinant research, may act irresponsibly and yet, this has been done before, and its consequences and planetary karma have been reaped, and yet the cycle goes on. On September 4, 1978, Hatonn spoke of the nature of the existence of our consciousness:   

 We have come to tell you the truth of Love and the power of unity. But we cannot do more than inspire you to find for yourself those truths. For each soul, my friends, each being, as we have said through this instrument many times, is a kingdom unto itself, a regal and imperial entity. Yes, we are all one, but the paradox is, my friends, that we are all unique and all completely necessary to the creation. And it is for each imperial entity to make the decision to seek for itself the truth of existence of consciousness. There are many truths, my friends. There are many, many levels of reality and each of your brothers and sisters that you meet may speak to you from a different level. But within yourself, my friends, you are at a unique place in your journey towards the truth. In order to seek the truth, it is important that you make contact with that place within yourself which has a will to purpose, and when you make contact with your deepest purpose you will find that your deepest purpose is to seek the truth.

Why are you here, my friends? To what end are you conscious at this time? To what end do you feel, and sense, and respond to the many, many things that occur to you within each day. Seek the answer to this question, my friend. Our most recommended procedure for this seeking is what many call meditation. This word, my friends, has many seriously unfortunate connotations, and those who would perhaps most enjoy the practice of meditation are sometimes uncomfortable with the phrase, for they feel that it may involve a complex practice. We do not recommend any practice but only the resolve to seek and the repeated attempt to quiet the outer self so that that still, small voice, as your holy works say, may be heard.  

Does this answer your question?

Questioner: Actually, no, not fully. I do understand what you are saying, and I appreciate it. What I was thinking was that DNA is sort of like the cosmic telegraph office between the message of the Creator and the cells of our body. And that, I was also thinking one night, in a somewhat questionable visionary state that the DNA, that the message coming through DNA is also better than rejuvenation and allows the basic drive of reproduction rather than just the creation of a cell, it would also have sort of a within a telegraph office… we deliver the message to create the DNA mind and the personal and drives… is that correct?

Hatonn: I am with the instrument. That which is DNA is as a blueprint for the construction of the vehicle. Those drives which are part of the vehicle, that is, those of hunger, reproduction, desire for oxygen, and other necessary functions of the vehicle are blueprinted by DNA. However, that which makes a being a being is not DNA-oriented but rather is within the, shall we say, eternal nature of the spirit or soul which inhabits and animates the actions of this vehicle for the time in which that vehicle will remain viably conscious on the physical level. Now there are, shall we say, blueprints which are the counterpart of DNA on the eternal or spiritual level.

Questioner: What about the mental level?

Hatonn: That which is mental is a matter of programming, as you no doubt are aware from what you have said, and can be reprogrammed, and this is what we were attempting to say about DNA itself. As the vehicle slowly follows evolution of a species, your mind can be more rapidly reprogrammed by your conscious direction of will in the appropriate circumstances. However, that which is eternal within you, and which is related not to a day-to-day activity but to the personality, which expresses itself in a timeless and instant vibration at all times, is not being fully reprogrammed by mental reprogramming but is influenced over many lifetimes and many experiences. However, a serious and concentrated effort in one incarnation can gradually make a distinct change in the vibration of the being. In fact, at any moment, if your will and desire were strong enough, you could instantly change your eternal being. It is simply that that instant of will and perfect desire is not easily come by.

Questioner asked about the mental level of evolution, and Hatonn said that which is mental is a matter of programming, and can be reprogrammed, and this is what we were attempting to say about DNA itself, for as the vehicle slowly follows the evolution of a species, your mind can be more rapidly reprogrammed by your conscious direction of will in the appropriate circumstances, but that which is eternal within you, and which is related to the personality which expresses itself in a timeless and instant vibration at all times, is not being fully reprogrammed by mental reprogramming but is influenced over many lifetimes, but a serious and concentrated effort in one incarnation can make a distinct change in the vibration of the being, and if your will and desire were strong enough, you could instantly change your eternal being, but it is that instant of will and perfect desire is not easily come by. On December 8, 2002, Q’uo spoke of the value of our use of our will and desire:

May we say that it is our opinion that the self that is most deeply true is a variable value depending upon the precise placement of the seeker’s mind, and will, and desire at the moment of awareness. Perhaps at one point that awareness might be very close to the gateway to intelligent infinity as that person drifts in meditation on a sea of peace and silent fullness. At another point, an entity may be totally focused upon some difficult task, and every nerve may be strained simply to do that one task well, and, in expressing the excellence of that effort, the resonances of beauty explode out of each atom of that moment of intense effort. When the self can feel self being, it is an event that is real beyond the ability of any, the self or an observer, to describe or to identify that which has been realized. When an entity feels beauty, it is simply there. It does not have to be explained. Indeed, it cannot be explained.

Questioner: Doesn’t that will and desire already influence the genetic message? And isn’t it… see, what I am trying to get at… it appears to me, that people have genetic malfunctions in their bodies that would be karmically imposed, genetically, from… the genetic message delivered by the soul says, ah, this is karma.

Hatonn: Let us separate theories of karma from the genetic structure of a physical vehicle. May we say first that each case of incarnation is individual, and not all genetic malfunctions are due to what is known to your people as karma. However, if a soul is reliving karma by a certain situation which they choose, they do not form a physical vehicle with that genetic imbalance, but rather chooses a physical vehicle which already has that imbalance. The imbalance itself is guided by the rules of DNA in its random combination. The parents of a particular physical vehicle might by mediation cause the randomness of DNA selection to be less random. However, this is due to the action at a distance, a fact of the mind upon physical particles, such as spermatozoa and ova. The soul and its philosophical nature must not be considered to be interacting with the physical DNA genetic code prior to incarnation. The soul chooses the vehicle which best suits it.

Questioner asked: “That people have genetic malfunctions in their bodies that would be karmically imposed, genetically, from… the genetic message delivered by the soul says, ah, this is karma.” Hatonn began by saying let us separate theories of karma from the genetic structure of a physical vehicle, so we say first that each case of incarnation is individual, and not all genetic malfunctions are due to what is known to your people as karma, but if a soul is reliving karma by a certain situation which they choose, they do not form a physical vehicle with that genetic imbalance, but rather choose a physical vehicle which already has that imbalance, and the imbalance is guided by the rules of DNA in its random combination, and the parents of a particular physical vehicle might by mediation cause the randomness of DNA selection to be less random, but this is due to the action at a distance, a fact of the mind upon physical particles, such as spermatozoa and ova because the soul and its philosophical nature must not be considered to be interacting with the physical DNA genetic code prior to incarnation, for the soul chooses the vehicle which best suits it. On October 18, 1978, Hatonn spoke of how action at a distance can work for our planet:

The planetary consciousness becomes lighter and lighter as it receives the Love generated, first from that Central Sun which is the Creator, but then flowing through you as persons of free will on planet Earth who have good wishes for all on your planet, and the Earth itself begins to feel it. It is perhaps, shall we say, an extreme example of what a physicist would call action at a distance where, by concentrating on small particles, changes in the material world may take place. These are very gross changes, and yet, if enough of the consciousness of your planet is alerted, even they can be alleviated. Things get worse rather than better, as you know, as you approach the new location in space. And by, perhaps shall we say, 1982 much will have become clear as to whether the natural sector of the creation—in other words, the planet itself—has begun to vibrate successfully in what so many of your poets have called the Golden Age to come.

Questioner: Is that the secret of longevity and perhaps even immortality or a long life of the body, a conscious spiritual… meditation or… of the spiritual mind and the DNA genetic code…

Hatonn: That which is long life is desired by some among your peoples. But in your present vibration it is not truly desirable. There will come a time when longevity is natural. Efforts to precede this natural moment by means of scientific and technological advances may perhaps be fascinating and inspiring to your people. However, when longevity is a desirable tool, which you may use to good effect, learning and growing throughout a longer incarnation, the exterior vibrations will of necessity have, shall we say, ameliorated, and wars and violence and other negative aspects will have lessened in their impact on the planetary vibration. The efforts of single individuals to have lives on the planet which do not take into account the utter negativity of the planetary vibration are lives, which, shall we say, are those of a hermit and may not be as rewarding to the progress of the soul. However, we realize that we are not addressing ourselves to your question, but it is not a question that we can answer simply.

Questioner: Are you saying that it would just as much behoove us not to spend a great deal of time say maybe even trying to communicate or [inaudible] with our genetic code, that would be pretty much a waste of our time, at this point.

Hatonn: Our basic feeling is that those who work in this area are great pioneers, and as their work is perfected it is greatly hoped that that Golden Age which your planet so richly deserves may come to pass, and all things will come in good time. However, while those who are working in this area continue, we have noticed that the planetary vibration itself becomes perhaps a little darker, perhaps a little brighter, but basically the same, and our basic suggestion is that to help the planet grow is at least as desirable an activity as to help in an esoteric understanding which cannot be fully used until it can be used by all.

Questioner: Well, I thank you very much. As usual, I have more questions now than what I started from. I do appreciate it.

Hatonn: We thank you for allowing us to share our thoughts with you. Is there another question?

Questioner: If a long life is not [inaudible], as you say, and the theme is that the planet is overpopulated anyway, with all of those dire consequences against you, why is it then considered a bad thing to end one’s life? [inaudible] Could it be that it is a good thing?

Hatonn: I am aware of your question, my sister. First, let us elucidate the question for the one known as R for his description of longevity as we understood it included not nearly a long life as we now know it, but that which you would term an impossibly long life, such as one which would span two centuries or more. And, indeed, we enjoy a longer life than you by many centuries, for our whole sense of time and space have changed, as we have entered new vibratory patterns. Now secondly, let us address ourselves to your question of a normally long life being perhaps not desirable.

May we say to you that lives, as you know them, whether long or short, by any standards, are in a certain pattern which you have chosen before you enter into the pattern. As a result of going from the beginning to the end of this pattern, your spirit hopes that it will have learned certain lessons, and thus have improved and defined the vibration which is its essence in the sphere of eternity in which all of you truly glow. When one contemplates and then does that which is known as suicide, one cuts short before the natural end the time of learning, and more often than not the lessons which that soul had hoped to learn had not been learned. Consequently, it is often so that rather than alleviating karma, the action of taking one’s life adds more karma to the burden which is already carried and which you are trying to discharge by the expression which is the lifetime which you are now living.

Thus, when you reenter incarnation, you have not only the original lesson to relearn but an additional severity to that lesson which is brought on by that pain which you have caused to those who you have previously left. Many times, this type of karma is alleviated by the total forgiveness of those whom you have hurt. However, it is simply desirable to live until it is time for your lesson to be through, for your burdens to be laid down. It is a truism, we are aware, but we must repeat that you are not given those things which you cannot bear. Thus, working through what is difficult when you finish with a lifetime at its natural end, whether it be short or long, you can then go on and learn other perhaps more agreeable lessons in other perhaps more agreeable spheres or vibrations.

Questioner asked: “If a long life is not [inaudible], as you say, and the theme is that the planet is overpopulated anyway, with all of those dire consequences against you, why is it then considered a bad thing to end one’s life? [inaudible] Could it be that it is a good thing?” Hatonn began by saying that lives, whether long or short are in a certain pattern which you have chosen before you enter into the pattern, so as a result of going from the beginning to the end of this pattern, your spirit hopes that it will have learned certain lessons, and thus have improved and defined the vibration which is its essence in the sphere of eternity in which all of you truly glow, but when one contemplates and then does that which is known as suicide, one cuts short before the natural end the time of learning, and the lessons which that soul had hoped to learn have not been learned, so it is often that rather than alleviating karma, the action of taking one’s life adds more karma to the burden which is already carried and which you are trying to discharge by the expression which is the lifetime which you are now living. Hatonn continued by saying when you reenter incarnation, you have not only the original lesson to relearn but an additional severity to that lesson which is brought on by that pain which you have caused to those who you have previously left, and  this type of karma is alleviated by the total forgiveness of those whom you have hurt, so it is desirable to live until it is time for your lesson to be through, and you are not given those things which you cannot bear, so working through what is difficult when you finish with a lifetime at its natural end, whether it be short or long, you can then go on and learn other more agreeable lessons in other more agreeable spheres or vibrations. In 69.6, Ra spoke of the ramifications of suicide:

However, the death, if natural, would undoubtedly be the more harmonious; the death by murder being confused and the entity needing some time/space in which to get its bearings, so to speak; the death by suicide causing the necessity for much healing work and, shall we say, the making of a dedication to the third density for the renewed opportunity of learning the lessons set by the higher self.

If you may think of your existence as having a natural rhythm and an ongoing purpose, perhaps it will be easier for you to understand that suicide, as you call it, is a stoppage of that rhythm in an arbitrary manner. Instead, it is desirable to proceed with the rhythm of your existence, always seeing the many lessons that are about you and letting the realization of love flow into you from the Creator. If you can keep these realizations before you, your life in this realm and all others will be enjoyable and fruitful. Does this answer your question?

Hatonn went on to say that if you think of your existence as having a natural rhythm and a purpose, it will be easier for you to understand that suicide, as you call it, is a stoppage of that rhythm in an arbitrary manner, but it is desirable to proceed with the rhythm of your existence, always seeing the many lessons that are about you and letting the realization of Love flow into you from the Creator, for if you can keep these realizations before you, your life in this realm and all others will be enjoyable and fruitful. On September 6, 1987, Q’uo spoke of how we can become aware of the realization of Love:

It is a paradox, yet it is true that when you seek to advance in knowledge of the one infinite Creator, the progress of that seeking is marked not so much by one’s own realizations, but by the degree of generosity with which those moments of companionship with the divine Source have been shared in the life experience with others. Think over your experiences of this day. Were there times when a realization of love could have been shared by a smile, a touch, an understanding ear, a caring heart, that were missed? “Lay up for yourselves,” it is said in one of your holy works, “treasures in heaven where moth and rust do not corrupt nor thieves break in and steal.”

You, my children, dwell in two realities—the apparent reality of time and the immanent and overshadowing reality of timeless infinity, an infinity made of Love. How we with our free will have distorted that Love, yet in each moment there is the same complete possibility for intimate contact with infinite Love. We urge you, then, not only to meditate within each day, but to choose moments within the most busy of your hours wherein you sink into the verticality of timelessness for one instant and see that each entity and thing which you behold is beautiful, perfect, and lovely.

Questioner: Yes, thank you.

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

[Pause]

I am with you. Please, my friends, know that the love of the Father flows throughout the cosmos on the winds of all of the universe to you, through you, from you. I am Hatonn. I leave you in that love. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning, I used my trimmer and trimmed around the front side of all of the Forsythia Bushes on the south, west, and north sides in my back yard, and then I went behind the bushes and trimmed on the back side as well. Then I repaired a broken clay tile pipe with packing tape in the pyramid of clay tile pipes in which I had planted Snap Dragon flowers. I dug up some gardening soil and refilled the clay tile pipe with it. Then I transplanted the Snap Dragon back into the pipe and gave it a good watering.

This afternoon, I made an errand run with my first stop being at Speedway to fill Stanley’s tank with gasoline. My next stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some food for myself. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I bought some boxes of Kleenex.

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

August 21

Self-Consciousness

We are of that continuous and lucid vibration which is the Love of Jesus the Christ. We greet you in the full consciousness of Love.

There is a Spirit which comforts all things. Yet this same Spirit demands and encourages activity upon the part of each entity. When those of your planet were walking about in deep forest and jungle, clad only in what they could skin and eating as they hunted, they were full of the Spirit, these humble and primitive self-conscious beings. Their lives were focused with discipline and intention in order to create the skills needed for survival. So, the Spirit was to them that which enabled them to walk in harmony with their environment.

You who sit in meditation this morning have developed self-consciousness to a high degree. You too seek comfort, the comfort of the emotions and the comfort of the Spirit. And so, you have comfort, by asking and expecting it.

Yet remember that it is yours to labor, with a hearty and cheerful heart, to bring into your consciousness that emotional, mental and spiritual food which we have offered you the tools to believe are possible. We are partners and our efforts shine together in transformative harmony.

May peace be yours this day and evermore.

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 quote comes from September 4, 1978:

(Carla channeling)

I am Laitos, and I greet you in the love and in the light of the infinite Creator. It is my great privilege to speak with you, and I come to you before Hatonn in order to balance the considerable energy of this group. At this time, we ask that each of you visualize your circle as being one which is totally enclosed in a beautiful white globe of Light. Visualize this globe as being created by the Love in each heart and by the unity of the group. In this way your energies will come into balance, and our contact will be smoother and more helpful, we hope, to each of you. I will pause at this time. I am known to you as Laitos.

[Pause]

Hatonn: I am with the instrument. I am Hatonn, and I greet you in the love and the light of the infinite Creator. I greet especially each of those who is new to this group and send to each and all our Love as well as that of the Creator in which we come to you. Many of you have questioned where it is that we come from, and yet we say to you that that is irrelevant. For it is not our origin or our virtues that should endear us to you but only one thing, my friends, and that is our information. Who are we? We are a voice that speaks to you. Yes, from other dimensions, from other spaces, from other universes than that which you know. For we move in such a universe that time and space as you know it are no more. We move in a universe where the emotions of sadness and separation are to us as beacons that call us. Distances do not matter. But only the cry that we hear from those who would wish to know that which we have to give. The information that can end your separation and your sorrow.

Our information is simple, my friends. A very, very simple truth we bring to you, the highest truth that we know, although we know that there is a higher truth, for we are not perfect. And that highest truth, my friends, is that we are all one. The universe has been made up of one substance and that, my friends, is Love. How can I say to you, each a beautiful being that sits within your dwelling place at this time in meditation, that you are one being, one with us, one with each other, and one with your beautiful planet. It is difficult, is it not, my friends, to see the truth. For you dwell in a dense physical illusion, as we would call it, in which energy seems to you to be mass. In which emotions, as they are, are habitually masked by your people, so that they speak falsely. And that falseness is believed as truth. And the separation goes on and on, my friends, among your people.

Hatonn wanted to let the meditation group know who Hatonn was and why they were with the group. They began by saying I greet each of those who is new to this group and send to each our Love as well as that of the Creator in which we come to you, and many of you have questioned where it is that we come from, and we say to you that is irrelevant, for it is not our origin or our virtues that should endear us to you but our information, so we are a voice that speaks to you from other dimensions than that which you know, for we move in such a universe that time and space are no more, and we move in a universe where the emotions of sadness and separation are to us as beacons that call us, so distances do not matter but only the cry that we hear from those who would wish to know that which we have to give, and this information can end your separation and your sorrow. Hatonn went on to say that our information the highest truth that we know, although we know that there is a higher truth, for we are not perfect, and that highest truth is that we are all one, for the universe is made up of one substance, and that is Love, and each is a beautiful being that sits within your dwelling place at this time in meditation, that you are one being, one with us, one with each other, and one with your beautiful planet, so it is difficult to see the truth, for you dwell in a dense physical illusion in which energy seems to be mass, and in which emotions are habitually masked by your people, so that they speak falsely, and that falseness is believed as truth, so the separation goes on and on among your people. On September 14, 2019, Q’uo said that we are all one:

First of all, we would suggest that each person sees each new child not just as a child of a mother and a father of third density, but as a child of the One Infinite Creator, for in truth, that is the nature of each child and each entity upon this planet. Seeing each child as the Creator, look then to how the Creator within all may be apprehended and taught to this child as a means of daily inspiration and recognition of the Creator that exists in all. Find a manner in which you may share your love of the One Creator with this child upon a regular basis, just as you learn arithmetic and reading in your schooling system, teach them the oneness of all creation, teach them the unconditional Love of all creation, teach them the Light of truth of all creation, teach them the interrelatedness of all entities within the one creation, and most especially at this time, upon the planet you call Earth.

Make this the foundation of every child’s education, and then each child shall be rich in the knowledge of that which is. For we are all one: we are one with each child, we are one with each other, we are one with the father, we are one with the mother, we are one with the planet—we are one.

Thosewho you choose to lead you, do not lead. And by choosing leaders you have somehow, my friends, given up the feeling of responsibility for yourself, the feeling of confidence that you can stand a beautiful and perfect soul upon your own two feet, figuratively speaking, and be able to do the very best that you can in clear conscience and in happiness, whatever the outcome. Choosing leaders that do not lead, and giving up your own choices to the leaders that do not lead, has left your people frustrated and confused. My friends, the answers lie not in outward reforms but first in the inner reform of each person that restores self-respect and reliance upon itself, knowledge of brotherhood and sisterhood and the ability to act on what you believe. Then, and only then, my friends, can you move forth into the world in which you are now living and learning and act for right or for wrong, but in the confidence that your judgment at this time is the best that it can be. And, my friends, how do you find that confidence that your people are so lacking? How can you find the Love that has been lost in infinite separations? Nation to nation, people to people?

We have come to tell you the truth of Love and the power of unity. But we cannot do more than inspire you to find for yourself those truths. For each soul, my friends, each being, as we have said through this instrument many times, is a kingdom unto themself, a regal and imperial entity. Yes, we are all one, but the paradox is, my friends, that we are all unique and all completely necessary to the creation. And it is for each imperial entity to make the decision to seek for the truth of existence of consciousness. There are many truths, my friends. There are many, many levels of reality, and each of your brothers sisters that you meet may speak to you from a different level. But within yourself, my friends, you are at a unique place in your journey towards the truth. In order to seek the truth, it is important that you make contact with that place within yourself which has a will to purpose, and when you make contact with your deepest purpose you will find that your deepest purpose is to seek the truth.

Then Hatonn said that those who you choose to lead you, do not lead, and by choosing leaders you have given the feeling of confidence that you can stand as a beautiful and perfect soul upon your own two feet and be able to do the best that you can in clear conscience and in happiness, whatever the outcome, so choosing leaders that do not lead, and giving up your choices to the leaders that do not lead, has left your people frustrated and confused, and the answers lie not in outward reforms but first in the inner reform of each person that restores self-respect and reliance upon itself, knowledge of brotherhood and sisterhood and the ability to act on what you believe, for only then can you move forth into the world in which you are now living and learning and act for right or for wrong, but in the confidence that your judgment at this time is the best that it can be, and how you can find the Love that has been lost in infinite separations, nation to nation, and people to people? Hatonn continued by saying we have come to tell you the truth of Love and the power of unity, but we cannot do more than inspire you to find for yourself those truths, for each soul is a kingdom unto themself, a regal and imperial entity, and we are all one, but the paradox is that we are all unique and necessary to the creation, so it is for each imperial entity to make the decision to seek for the truth of existence of consciousness, for there are many truths, and there are many levels of reality, and each of your brothers and sisters that you meet may speak to you from a different level, but within yourself you are at a unique place in your journey towards the truth, and in order to seek the truth, it is important that you make contact with that place within yourself which has a will to purpose, and when you make contact with your deepest purpose you will find that your deepest purpose is to seek the truth. On April 15, 2009, Q’uo described our deepest purpose:

Dear ones, as you sit in the circle, in the sacred space that you have created with your hearts and your love, you are ready. In the deepest sense there is nothing that you need to do to become more ready to get on board. Your very being is the heart of your mission, the core of your purpose on Planet Earth at this time. You cannot fail in your mission, because you must be. Letting your true nature shine through the circumstances and shifts of everyday life is your deepest purpose. Finding ways that are ever more authentic to be yourself is the most effective and efficient way that you may serve your planet as it approaches that year that has been so discussed, 2012.

. . .

And do not wonder why you may have too many gifts. For every gift that you have shall come into play, on one level or another, as you meet the challenges you have given yourself in order to refine the ore of your beingness, to uncover from the soil of self the gems within and humbly to hold them up to the Light that they may refract and make the most intense and true colors as they flash in the Light of the one infinite Creator so that you become not only a lighthouse to many, but a certain kind of lighthouse. For your colors shall color the infinite Light and Love of the one Creator. And those about you shall be bathed with infinitely beautiful Light, as the colors enhance the sunlight in a stained-glass window.

Why are you here, my friends? To what end are you conscious at this time? To what end do you feel, and sense, and respond to the many, many things that occur to you within each day. Seek the answer to this question, my friend. Our most recommended procedure for this seeking is what many call meditation. This word, my friends, has many seriously unfortunate connotations and those who would perhaps most enjoy the practice of meditation are sometimes uncomfortable with the phrase, for they feel that it may involve a complex practice. We do not recommend any practice but only the resolve to seek and the repeated attempt to quiet the outer self so that that still, small voice, as your holy works say, may be heard.

Now Hatonn said: “Why are you here, my friends? To what end are you conscious at this time? To what end do you feel, and sense, and respond to the many, many things that occur to you within each day?” Seek the answer to this question, for our most recommended procedure for this seeking is meditation which has unfortunate connotations, and those who would enjoy the practice of meditation are sometimes uncomfortable with the phrase, for they feel that it may involve a complex practice, but we do not recommend any practice but only the resolve to seek and the repeated attempt to quiet the outer self so that that still, small voice may be heard. On January 2, 2016, Q’uo spoke of that still, small voice within us:

If you want nothing more in your life than to know what it is to do, to serve, to love, to be, to share, to experience that which you came to experience, these answers will come to you. You are all aware of that still small voice inside you, and some have called it intuition. My friends, this is a Creator within speaking in a faint whisper, perhaps in words almost inaudible, in feelings of inspiration of one way or another. Listen to this voice. It is your greatest ally. You have assistance all about you through friends, through synchronicities, through your dreams, through people you meet in your daily round of activities, to people you meet by chance it would seem, on the street. That which is most necessary from you is your persistence and your passion, your true desire. Hone these qualities within, my friends, and they will bring to you that which you seek, for that is the law. That which you seek shall come to you and that which you seek in the ultimate sense of Love, and Light, and unity, will not only come to you, but will come into you, so that it will become you, and you will become it.

I would at this time attempt to transfer to the one known as Don. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

I am Laitos. I am sorry for the delay. At this time, I would like to work with each of those within the meeting in order to strengthen their own spiritual vibration, shall we say, and let each feel our contact. If you would desire to experience what we call our conditioning wave, we ask that you mentally request that we will be with you at this time. I am Laitos.

[Pause]

I am with the instrument. Again, we ask in order to strengthen the unity of the group’s energy that each of you visualize a beautiful white ball of Light that surrounds your entire dwelling place and in which you are all totally bathed in Love.

[Pause]

We thank you. This is a much better flow of energy, and we can use this instrument better. At this time, we would like to attempt to speak a few words through a newer instrument, and thus we would transfer to the one known as M. I am Laitos.

[Pause]

I am again with the instrument. We have good contact with the one known as M. And at this time would simply attempt to work with her conditioning wave, if you will be patient with us. I am Laitos.

[Pause]

I am again with this instrument. The one known as M has a very good contact and lacks only confidence at this time. This is extremely beneficial to us that she is so desirous of aiding us, and we emphasize often, my friends, that being a verbal channel is only one way of speaking those thoughts which our vibration offers to your people. For many are the questions that are asked and the seeds that can be planted, as the conversation was saying before this meeting began. Thus, channeling as you are aware of it now is only one of many avenues that you can take to be of service to your fellow beings, and yet we do need as many verbal channels, such as this one, as we can find, due to the fact that this particular type of communication is a good way of speaking to those who are seeking the truth and is for some more informative and interesting than a less formal conversation. Many are those, my friends, who desire the simple information that we have to give. At this time, if you will again be patient, I will attempt to say just a few sentences through the one known as R. I am Laitos.

[Pause]

I am again with this instrument. Thank each of you very much for your patience. It is sometimes time-consuming working with new instruments, but we very much appreciate the group’s willingness to help. We thank the one known as R, also. Again, we have good contact. However, if the one known as R would cease from analyzing our thoughts, we would be able to let them flow to her. For when one analyzes our thoughts, they cease in their flow and, therefore, the channel is interrupted. This is a very common problem, and we are always happy to work with those who would request our presence. At any time you would wish to work upon the conditioning wave and becoming more aware of our presence, we simply ask that you request our presence mentally. If at any time it is inconvenient for this contact to proceed, mentally request that we leave and we will instantly obey your desires.

I am Laitos, my friends. It is a great privilege to work with each of you. And as I am in contact with each of you, I feel that you are my brother and my sister, and that we truly are the universe together. Adonai, my friends. I leave you in love and light.

[Pause]

I am again with this instrument. I am Hatonn, and again I greet you in the love and the light of the infinite One. We had wished to speak a few thoughts through the one known as Don, and if he will allow himself to be conditioned while we open the meeting to questions, we will again attempt before the close of this meeting. At this time, I would open the meeting to questions. Does anyone have a question?

Questioner: I have a question. My name is J [inaudible.] The question boils down to this: Can you give me some sign or something so I know that it is not my subconscious or I myself talking and answering…

I am Hatonn. I am aware of your question, my brother. The answer is far from simple, but we will attempt to elucidate to you the laws that govern the seeing, shall we say, paranormal events by witnesses within the physical illusion. Each entity, as we have stated, is striving to understand the truth of their being. There is, shall we say, a base speed of progress which approaches zero but which inevitably, over an infinite length of time, will bring that searching soul into knowledge. Many of the people upon your planet Earth are progressing at this pace, for they do not have any conscious desire to seek, and therefore they do not seek. Many others among your people are dimly or perhaps acutely aware that there is something which is beyond what is known to, shall we say, the society at large, as truth. There is a reality beyond reality. And it is people like yourself who are beginning to accelerate their progress by becoming aware that there is such a thing as seeking.

The more serious and dedicated one is to the seeking of truth, the more one begins to activate those forces which are beyond the limited understanding of their environment. We do not believe, if you will pardon the pun, in faith! We have no faith in belief! That which we offer to you is that which is already known to you on a level which is deep. We urge you only to make a conscious dedication towards the seeking of that which is locked within yourself, for you constitute the universe. If we are all one, then shall we say, you are a hologram of all that there is. Now, that may seem like a long preamble to a discussion of signs and wonders, but it is difficult for us to make you understand that it is not through faith or through intellectual searching, through books that you may find a sign or a happening to convince you of the reality of the metaphysical universe. It is through the conscious commitment to seeking the truth in some practice, such as meditation, which carries your knowledge in your action. This can be secret and should be secret. By this we mean it is not necessary to go begging in the streets to show your piety, as many on your planet have done. It does not make them more susceptible to information of a higher realm or more likely to witness the unlimited power of the universe. The wonders and the signs are locked within yourself.

Questioner asked: “Can you give me some sign or something so I know that it is not my subconscious or I myself talking and answering…” Hatonn began by saying the answer is far from simple, but we will attempt to explain the laws that govern the seeing of paranormal events by witnesses within the physical illusion, for each entity is striving to understand the truth of their being, and there is a basic speed of progress which approaches zero but which inevitably, over an infinite length of time, will bring the searching soul into knowledge, and many of the people upon Earth are progressing at this pace, for they do not have any conscious desire to seek, and therefore they do not seek, but many others among your people are dimly or perhaps acutely aware that there is something which is beyond what is known to the society at large, as truth, for there is a reality beyond reality, and it is people like yourself who are beginning to accelerate their progress by becoming aware that there is such a thing as seeking.

On December 6, 2005, Q’uo spoke of the nature of the metaphysical universe:

We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. As we were speaking of the difference between consensus reality or the world of illusion and the metaphysical universe or the world of time/space, we were speaking of a finite universe as opposed to an infinite universe. Your everyday, consensus reality is measurable. One can measure the terrestrial ball upon which you walk. One can measure the beat of your heart and the pressure of your blood. One can use instrumentation to measure the exact electrical charge of each thought that you think.

The world of metaphysics is not measurable by such instrumentation as you are aware of in your everyday world. It is a world in which anything is possible because you are unbounded by any limitation whatsoever except those you create for yourself. The world of time/space is the world of consciousness. It is the world of infinity and eternity. The reason it is difficult for us to describe this to you is that your mind is a space/time artifact. The intellectual brain, that marvelous problem-solving biocomputer, is not capable of grasping the infinite. It can only grasp it by saying, “Oh, it is that which goes beyond that limit.” But since the mind thinks in finite terms, there is always an end to that place that is beyond. And then infinity must again be invoked so that that limit too is transcended.

As far as we know it is not possible intellectually to conceive of infinity. It is, however, possible to experience the infinite. The infinite is that world in which you exist without masks. You have journeyed to the world of finity in order to do work in consciousness that must be done without recourse to that point of view that is full of love, wisdom and knowledge.

So, we would say to you, my brother, that the value of the infinite can only be known by you in experiencing the infinite directly. That is what work in consciousness concerns itself with. You are a living and breathing meeting place of the finite and infinite, in every cell of your body. There is that aspect which experiences life and death, and there is that aspect which was never born and which shall never die. That infinite aspect does not know itself for it is wrapped up and lost in the Creator itself. You, as a finite being, are the place where great truths and infinite values meet; that environment which creates form and gives shape to the dance of the Creator learning to know Itself.

As you meditate, seek and attempt to become consciously aware that you are an eternal being, a wondrous being, a consciousness looking out through eyes into a physical universe, but looking in through your inner eye to that which is infinite, invisible, and in the terms of your workaday world, miraculous. It is this, this turning of the consciousness that will begin to open to you the small subjective signs that your journey is beginning to take place. We ask that you keep, shall we say, your eyes open. Many signs begin as the merest coincidence. We cannot promise to give you a sighting. We tell you only that we do not wish to convince you that we are anything. We only wish to offer information that you may listen to with a discriminating ear, using that which is valuable to you and discarding the rest.

We attempt to speak the truth without distortion. But words, my friend, are a distortion. Only the unspoken concept of Love is complete. We would ask not only you, my brother, but each in this room, to become aware of a universe in which signs and miracles do not signify. Because each has become aware of the incredible miracle of consciousness in which the power of a healing, or a sighting, or a metal bending is not a sign at all. The sign, my friends, being instead the power of one person to walk in another person’s shoes; the power of Love, to reach and touch when those you call your enemies are attempting to build walls.

Can we answer your question more clearly, my brother?

J: No, thank you.

Hatonn: We thank you that we can share our thoughts with you. May we ask if there might be another question?

R: [Inaudible].

Hatonn: I am with the instrument. We find that as a part of the growing process that you, my sister, have a mixture of occurrences and that some of your sensations are truly those of a sensitive, as this instrument would call it, and some those of you yourself speaking internally, as a part of the growing process attempting to integrate those parts of your personality that are not yet totally in harmony. It is a difficult situation for a sensitive person, and we recommend that in your meditation you pray for stability and protection and feel the Love that makes us all whole. We would not recommend developing your, shall we say, psychic powers, at this time, but work instead for the stability which will stand you in good stead when you later begin to develop, both as a personality and as a sensitive, and by that we mean one who is sensitive.

I am with the instrument. I am Hatonn. If you will be patient for a moment, we will condition the instrument to reestablish a better contact. I… I am Hatonn. I am Hatonn. To the one known as R, may we say that our answers are not final. We are your brothers and sisters, and not, shall we say, your gods. We have gone one step further than you and have left some limitations behind. But oh, my friends, the universe is indeed infinite, and we know that we are not infallible, and with that clear understanding we shall share with you our understanding, such as it is, of the beginning of all things. It is our understanding that that which was the Creator is infinite, and when there was a desire for self-realization, that which was one Being took energy, which we now call Love, and with this infinite energy created all that there is.

R asked an inaudible question, and Hatonn responded by saying we find that as a part of the growing process that you have a mixture of occurrences, and that some of your sensations are those of a sensitive, as Carla would call it, and some those of are you speaking internally, as a part of the growing process attempting to integrate those parts of your personality that are not yet totally in harmony, but it is a difficult situation for a sensitive person, and we recommend that in your meditation you pray for stability and protection and feel the Love that makes us all whole, for we would not recommend developing your psychic powers, at this time, but work instead for the stability which will stand you in good stead when you later begin to develop, both as a personality and as a sensitive, and by that we mean one who is sensitive. Then Hatonn said may we say to R that our answers are not final because we are your brothers and sisters and not your gods, for we have gone one step further than you and have left some limitations behind, but the universe is infinite, and we know that we are not infallible, and with that understanding we shall share with you our understanding of the beginning of all things, so it is our understanding that which is the Creator is infinite, and when there was a desire for self-realization, that which was one Being took energy, which we now call Love, and with this infinite energy created all that there is. On September 16, 2001, Q’uo spoke of the nature of Love:

We would recommend to each entity that within the meditative state one sees the ruptures in this planet’s beingness. Perhaps you can locate them geographically within your mind, seeing them as dark and hurting, in pain and confusion. And then, begin to bring the Light and the Love of the one Creator into the image. See that rupture of hurt and pain lightened by this Love of the one Creator, shining forth through the eyes of all. Focus upon the injury, the hurt, and the pain until it is also as bright as the noonday sun.

Each of you my friends, and each of us, was created to lend a realizing consciousness to the Creator. In essence, we then are the Creator, realizing our self. But it is not we alone who are the Creator, or some entity somewhere else who is the Creator, but all of us together who form the Creator. Without one of you, my friends, the creation would be incomplete. We cannot lose anyone. We are all totally and completely necessary by our very being. In the infinitude that is eternity—and that is a hard concept to grasp we are aware—the polarity that was achieved by the Creator in Its creation, when Love came forth and made all the universes, brought about an infinite series of cycles; each beginning in comparative darkness and rising to comparative light.

Each of you has been through many cycles, becoming more and more a true reflection of the Creator. It is for this reason that we are. We are here to realize the Creator, to see and to reflect and to share the Creator with each other, and thus we are the Creator. Whenever you realize that great force of Love in your dealings with others, you have given love to the Creator. For the Creator is in all that you see. Now how, my friends, can you be expected to know what Love is and how to give it? This, my friends, is the question which you bring to the troubles of your life, as you experience it day by day in this physical density that you now enjoy. Each seeming difficulty is, shall we say, a quiz, a test, perhaps even, if it is a very difficult situation, the equivalent of a midterm, as this instrument would call it.

Then Hatonn said each of you and each of us, were created to lend a realizing consciousness to the Creator, and we are the Creator, realizing our self, but it is not we alone who are the Creator, or some entity somewhere else who is the Creator, but all of us together who form the Creator, for without one of you the creation would be incomplete, and we cannot lose anyone, for we are all completely necessary by our very being, so in the infinitude that is eternity the polarity that was achieved by the Creator in Its creation, when Love came forth and made all the universes, brought about an infinite series of cycles with each beginning in darkness and rising to the Light. Hatonn went on to say each of you has been through many cycles, becoming more of a true reflection of the Creator, and it is for this reason that we are here to realize the Creator, to see and to reflect and to share the Creator with each other, and thus we are the Creator, so when you realize that force of Love in your dealings with others, you have given Love to the Creator, for the Creator is in all that you see, and how can you be expected to know what Love is and how to give it, for this is the question which you bring to the troubles of your life, as you experience them day by day in this physical density that you now enjoy, so each difficulty is the equivalent of a midterm, as Carla would call it. On January 11, 1998, Q’uo spoke of how we may give Love to others:

One has a range of reactions from the one with whom one speaks and interacts. All of these are bits of information, opportunities to learn, to learn the power of the Love of the one Creator to transform, for instance, when one is able to tap into this resource. To learn regret that one has caused injury, to learn the determination that one shall not do so again, to learn a vast array of possible responses. Indeed, the experience offers an example of the infinity of the moment. In this moment one may learn how to give Love in a way that is much quicker, intense, and efficient than this learning could be accomplished where harmony, oneness, and the power of Love and Light are obvious, and the proper response is given without thought, without effort, and the entire mind/body/spirit of the entity is affected but little. Whereas in the intense moment of third-density confusion the Love and Light that you find there carries a great deal more value and weight in your total beingness and moves your mind/body/spirit further along the line of evolution than is possible in the same amount of experience within the higher realms of harmony and oneness.

What you are is being brought to the catalyst of a situation in which you must then discover the best way of showing Love. It is not an easy vibration, the one in which you now live. But it is one in which the learning is greatly intensified. We have in our vibration a greatly extended life span. This is due, my friends, to the fact that when one is aware of all one’s own thoughts and all the thoughts of others, then one cannot feel separation. Therefore, the stimulus for emotional displacement by sorrow and grief, frustration and anger, is almost never felt to any great extent, and we have very little choice but to vibrate in Love and in unity.

Thus, our learning comes over long periods of time, as you would call it, simply by sharing that which we know with others. In this we refine and refine ourselves, more and more purely. But it is a slow process. You on the other hand have chosen, and are appropriately placed in, a situation in which Love is completely masked in some situation, and you must from your own understanding of reality find the Love within each being and within each situation, dwell on it in your heart, and thus correct in your inner picture the errors in your outer picture. Many of those in your world have a strong faith that 2 plus 2 equals 5 in many situations. And you have been taught wrong information as basic as 2 plus 2 is 5, and you have absorbed it into your being. Now in your heart, when all seems awry, it is your lesson to find the harmony, to find that 2 plus 2 is 4 and thus secure in your knowledge of Love.

Haton continued by saying what you are is being brought to the catalyst of a situation in which you must then discover the best way of showing Love, but the vibration you are living in now is not an easy vibration, but it is one in which learning is intensified, so we have in our vibration an extended life span due to the fact that when one is aware of all one’s own thoughts and all the thoughts of others, then one cannot feel separation, and the stimulus for emotional displacement by sorrow and anger is never felt to any great extent, and you have very little choice but to vibrate in Love and in unity. Hatonn continued by saying your learning comes over long periods of time by sharing that which you know with others, and in this way you refine yourselves more purely, but it is a slow process, so on the other hand you have chosen, and are placed in a situation in which Love is completely masked in some situation, and you must from your own understanding of reality find the Love within each being and within each situation, dwell on it in your heart, and thus correct in your inner picture the errors in your outer picture, and many of those in your world have a strong faith that 2 plus 2 equals 5 , and you have been taught wrong information as basic as 2 plus 2 is 5, and you have absorbed it into your being, so now in your heart, when all seems awry, it is your lesson to find the harmony, to find that 2 plus 2 is 4 and thus secure in your knowledge of Love. On January 12, 1986, Q’uo spoke about our knowledge of Love:

Therefore you are, metaphysically speaking, in darkness, and it is within this darkness that you seek knowledge of Love, of Light, and of unity. Consider the earth that lies outside of your dwelling. There is water vapor always in the air about the earth. Deep rivers flow underneath the mantle of earth and spring forth often in unexpected places. When rains come upon the earth, the earth drinks thirstily, and so it is with the seeker. Much of understanding, if we may use this term, comes from the process of seeking within the darkness of inner vision and within the environment of water. This is seeking unmanifested. The only Light which is visible metaphysically speaking to the seeker is paralleled by the Light of the night sky, the stars, and the reflected Light of your planetary satellite. Metaphysically speaking, that star is called hope or faith. It is not a Light which ameliorates the darkness, but it is a signal, a sign if you will, that Light there is and Light abundant.

Allow that Love and that right understanding to illuminate the situation and heal what can be healed. You cannot heal other beings unless they request it or desire it. But you can heal that portion within yourself which may feel pain. And in healing yourself, in truth you heal the universe. Remember, my friends, your basic attempt is to seek for yourself, and then share with others whenever you can. But to seek for others is impossible. We are aware that we could not have responded adequately to a question as deep as yours in such a brief answer. But, may we ask if this is satisfactory for the present?

Now Hatonn said allow that Love and that right understanding to illuminate the situation and heal what can be healed, but you cannot heal other beings unless they request it or desire it, but you can heal that portion within yourself which may feel pain, and in healing yourself, you heal the universe, so remember your basic attempt is to seek for yourself, and then share with others whenever you can, but to seek for others is impossible, and we are aware that we could not have responded adequately to a question as deep as yours in such a brief answer, but may we ask if this is satisfactory for the present? On November 24, 2007, Q’uo described the value of our healing ourself:

It is our opinion that it is in healing yourself that you heal the world. It is in learning to love yourself that you learn to love others. It is in finding compassion at last for yourself that you are finally able to have compassion for others. It is in blessing your own suffering by respecting it, honoring it, and forgiving it in yourself that you become able to behold the suffering of the world in its massive and almost infinite depth.

It is necessary, really, for you to fall in love with yourself. Self-judgment cannot be overcome. It must be balanced by compassion. You are bound to make mistakes and come under the possibility of judgment. Yet also do you have within you creatorship, so that you are never in a position of having failed for longer than it takes for you to turn again to the Light and start afresh.

R: [Inaudible].

Hatonn: We are grateful to you, my sister, and to show you that at all times we will be with you, if you request it. It is written in your holy works that the Creator will wipe every tear from our eyes. And we say to you that such is the truth as we know it. There is no sorrow that will not be comforted. And no understanding that will not be made complete. And these are not aphorisms or empty words. Go in meditation to that place within yourself where the Creator is, and dwell in the Love that is indescribable.

I would like to close through the one known as Don, if he would accept our contact. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

I am again with this instrument. I will close through this instrument, as the one known as Don does not desire to be an instrument at this time. I leave you in love and unity. I am Hatonn. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning a ran one errand and that was to buy some food for myself at Paul’s Fruit Market.

This afternoon I used my trimmer and trimmed the area around the fishpond, the flower gardens in front of my home, and then I went into the back yard and trimmed the weeds around the brick walkways.

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

August 20

Judgment

I am of the principle of perfect Love. and I greet you in that principle of perfect Love which is the essence and being of Jesus the Christ.

This instrument has allowed the mind to become most clouded with judgment this day, not of the self but of others. It is a condition which leads to death and exhaustion of the emotions and Spirit, and which leaves the physical body a walking grave.

The Spirit of Love does not contain judgment. Rather than disciplining in the face of difficult opinion, it attempts to expand the object of judgment and the mind of the judger until all may be seen to be the outworking of natural processes.

Remember that each entity struggles to find the Spirit of Love and most are faulty in their pursuit of that great pearl.

Remember that nothing is as it seems to be, and that Love is expressed in many distorted ways. Release judgment, asking for the spirit to fill the mind with an expanded vision and a more tolerant view. For so Christ’s Love would have Love between all peoples as a direct corollary and manifestation of perfect Love.

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

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of love and open our hearts, minds, and souls to send love, light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite love, light, and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel 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 quote comes from August 21, 1978:

(Don channeling)

I greet you, my friends, in the love and in the light of our infinite Creator. It is a great privilege to speak to you this evening. I speak through this instrument. I am at present in what you call a spacecraft. And yet, my friends it is not a spacecraft. For you space is a medium which surrounds your planet. It is far, far out into the heavens, farther than you could ever imagine. You see us as people who come to you from far distant places, unreachable and unapproachable in this vast universe. This is true, my friends, and yet it is not true. Those far distant places are within you even as you now sit within this room.

This is the paradox, my friends. The great paradox of understanding which is not yet apparent to those who dwell upon your surface is that all that exists in this vast universe exists in one place, in one time. Each of us, my friends, is in all places, and in one place. And yet we appear to be limited, stunted, unable to move about in the vastness where all is created. My friends, this is not at all the circumstance which we experience. It is all but an illusion. In truth, you and I are all things, for all things are also you, my friends. We are all part of this vast creation, and this vast creation is all part of us.

At present, you apparently are limited but this is of your own choosing. You’ve chosen these limitations for a purpose. For a purpose that has taken you through many experiences. You’re here to [inaudible], enabling you to find your way towards that which you desire. If you did not desire, my friends, you would not be here. We are here to help you with your desire. This is our only mission. In truth it is our only [inaudible] to help you with your desires. Desire calls us. Were it not for your desire, we could not come. Were it not for your desire, we could not speak to you this evening. Desire what you call enlightenment, desire what you call awareness. Desire like you [inaudible] the evolution of spirit. My friends, these are one in the same thing.

We come to point to you the single path that leads toward that which you desire. The single path is simple, my friends. The way to [inaudible] can only be discovered through meditation and by whatever name you call it, resolves itself to one simple principle: total and absolute unity and the dissolution of self. For how is this accomplished, my friends? How is this accomplished? Painstakingly, through many experiences. This is one way. And yet this accomplishment may occur many [inaudible] through time and complete and total resolution. It depends, my friends, upon your desire and your desire, my friends, depends upon your meditation. For your desires [inaudible] by the awareness that is generated through meditation. Only this will lead you to that which all of you ultimately seek. Only that desire, my friends, to spend time in meditation, and the desire will grow. This growth will lead you on each step of the way on the glorious plan in reunion. Reunion with your soul. For as this reunion takes place, you will recognize yourself for yourself, my friends, is all of us. It is has been a privilege speaking through this instrument. I will now transfer this contact. I am Hatonn.

(H channeling)

I am Hatonn, and am now with this instrument. Those of us with the Confederation of Planets in Service to the Infinite Creator consider it a great privilege to serve people on planet Earth. We have come for one reason and one reason only. We have recognized the need for assistance to your people. We have recognized the pleas that call freely through that which you may refer to that which you may refer to as the “evils,” or through the universe. For the thoughts of your people, as the thoughts of all beings, are energy forms which travel with great speed as they are projected by your peoples. And all of those throughout the universe who have become aware of these energies and who are capable of assisting you have either come to your planet or send their love to your people.

We of the Confederation have been given the opportunity to come to you and to await the moment that we may unite as one, serve one another, Love one another, and then focus our energies and our Love to serving those throughout the universe, as we have come to serve you. We of the Confederation recognize to a greater degree, as we see it, the natural functions, or shall we say, laws that govern people’s existence on planet Earth and throughout the universe. In these sessions we attempt to assist you to understand, as best as we can, on an intellectual basis, these energies or laws that govern your existence. Yet we have found that there is truly only one law, that is Love, my friends. You have been instructed by all of the great teachers that have walked this plane that you call Earth to love one another. All of the major philosophies upon your planet agree upon this point, though they may differ in many areas.

People upon planet Earth have an infinite capability to love one another, and it has only begun to open those doors and to utilize this ability. People upon planet Earth, as they exist presently, are in what you might refer to as an infantile state. Indeed, your civilization has progressed rapidly. Especially within this period of time you call a century. Yet this progression upon the physical plane of existence is irrelevant to the progression of your ability to love one another. And indeed, in many cases, it is detrimental to assist you to develop the ability of the consciousness of Love, for people upon planet Earth become engulfed in their experiences. People upon planet Earth are constantly bombarded by negative and positive energies flowing around them and creating within them. Humans continually focuse upon the development upon their society of their technology, but unfortunately, in your more advanced nations there is a lesser degree of interest than there should be in the spiritual development of your race.

We of the Confederation are interested in only this portion of people upon planet Earth. Indeed, we are intrigued by your societal structure, your technological development. Yet it is irrelevant to us at what stage of development you reside upon this physical plane of life. For, my friends, as you pass through this experience, you pass beyond the veil of death as you return. You continue to exist, and your energy or your spirit remains intact and planted within it is the accumulative knowledge of all the years past. Not only in your most recent experience but in all of those that have come before. And your development continues onward, time after time. You shall enter into experiences, some similar to this, others much more different. But each with the purpose of assisting you to learn how to love one another. Some have come here for certain purposes and, indeed, all have a purpose for their existence now and always. Some are to be teachers and some doctors, some simple people serving only their families, but none have come with a greater mission. For all have come for the purpose of love and the fulfillment for the desire of the Creator.

For it was the Creator’s desired intent, as we understand it, that the universe be one. Indeed, it is infinite in size to the best of our knowledge. Yet, in totality, it is but one universe governed by one omnipresent energy. And we call that energy, but we lack the ability to express to you through your words, the entire meaning of this concept. We of the Confederation have watched over you for a great deal of time. We have watched you people struggle, and it has saddened us to some extent. But we have witnessed great conflict and unfortunately a lack of love for one another on your planet. We wish not to chastise your civilization. We wish only to serve and love you and ask that you do so for one another.

I shall transfer this communication. I am Hatonn.

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn, and again greet you in love and light. If those present will be patient, I would like to work briefly with the one known as S that she may be more familiar with our contact. I will work with the conditioning ray and I will attempt to say just a few words through her if she will react and speak freely those thoughts which come into her mind. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

(Carla channeling)

I am again with this instrument. We are moderating our energy as we are overloading the one known as S, shall we say. We will attempt again with a finer tuning. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

(Carla channeling)

I am again with this instrument. We thank the one known as S and are very grateful for the opportunity to work with her. Contact is very good as the instrument is very sensitive. However, we will have to work with moderating our energy to be totally comfortable. At this time we would like to condition the one known as B. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. May we thank each of those who are visiting this group and assure them that at any time they wish our contact we will be with them. As you become familiar with our contact it will be more and more unmistakable. And so, we wish also to say that at any time that our contact is inconvenient, you need only request that we leave you, and we will do so instantly. We are here only to serve you and to help you serve in the name of the Creator. At this time, I would open the meeting to questions.

Questioner: I would like to know if you can tell us anything about the educational systems and how they will be changed in the future? [Inaudible] but we need to know at this time.

Hatonn: I am aware of your question. When we receive a question which involves the free will activities of those who apply their wisdom and their knowledge in an effort to improve the lot of life for those upon their planet, then we must needs fall back on the principle of freedom of choice. Therefore, we cannot say to you what would be the best way, for it is your planet, my sister. And you deal with those things which are known to you as limitations as well as those things which are known to you as ideas. And in this dense and chemical atmosphere, it is necessary for you to know in your heart and think out with that fine tool which is called your brain what will be the best way to serve your people.

You know that the great principle of Love is the heart of all learning. And that all those souls who breathe the atmosphere of your planet come with a certain degree of wisdom and desire to learn that is unique to them. It is therefore extremely difficult to form a system of education which is comfortable and beneficial for all. Thus, you must always decide whether you wish to perfectly educate the few or gradually and imperfectly educate the many. Without the understanding of each parent that the child is a spirit born in Love, without the understanding of each parent that the center of life is in appreciation of the force and the beauty of life and the Love that creates it, education becomes an artificial and difficult matter instead of the joyful and spontaneous flow of information gladly asked for and gladly given.

Questioner asked: I would like to know if you can tell us anything about the educational systems and how they will be changed in the future? Hatonn began by saying when they receive a question which involves the free will activities of those who apply their knowledge in an effort to improve the lot of life for those upon their planet, then they need to fall back on the principle of freedom of choice, so they cannot say what would be the best way, for it is our planet, and we deal with those things which are known to us as limitations as well as those things which are known to us as ideas, and in this dense and chemical atmosphere, it is necessary for us to know in our heart and think with our mind what will be the best way to serve our people. Then Hatonn said we know that the great principle of Love is the heart of all learning, and all those souls who breathe the atmosphere of our planet come with a certain degree of wisdom and desire to learn that is unique to them, but it is difficult to form a system of education which is comfortable and beneficial for all, so we must decide whether we wish to perfectly educate the few or gradually and imperfectly educate the many, for without the understanding of each parent that the child is a spirit born in Love, without the understanding of each parent that the center of life is in appreciation of the force and the beauty of life and the Love that creates it, education becomes an artificial and difficult matter instead of the joyful and spontaneous flow of information gladly asked for and gladly given. On January 4, 1976, Hatonn spoke of what it means for us to be born in the consciousness of Love:

Reality for you, my friends, lies within each meeting. Even the least of those have been born in Love, and if you can realize this Love within him, you have given him the reality within his center. Such service as this is what links you to your center; is what keeps you within reality. 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.

Without mind to mind understanding it is impossible to know the great uniqueness of each soul. It is impossible to respond to the great uniqueness of each student. And so, you are where you are in an arena in which those things which are true in the highest level must somehow be brought down to practice in an atmosphere in which truth cannot prevail perfectly. We ask you, my sister, shall it be better for you to refrain from aiding because you cannot be perfect or shall you go forth, armed in love, and use those things which you know and those abilities of mind that you have worked upon in this incarnation and do what you can knowing that while it is imperfect…

Then Hatonn said without mind to mind understanding it is impossible to know the great uniqueness of each soul, and it is impossible to respond to the uniqueness of each student, so we are where we are in an arena in which those things which are true in the highest level must be brought down to practice in an atmosphere in which truth cannot prevail perfectly, so Hatonn asked shall it be better for us to refrain from aiding because we cannot be perfect, or shall we go forth, armed in Love, and use those things which we know, and those abilities of mind that we have worked upon in this incarnation, and do what we can knowing that while it is imperfect…On March 22, 2003, Q’uo spoke about how we all share a uniqueness of being:

This basic mission which all hold in common is perforce a generalized expression of the essence of the self, for are not all selves part of the infinite Creator? So that there is that spiritual paradox, that is so precious, of the absolute equality of all souls and the absolute uniqueness of each gem of personhood that is the soul stream that is represented so sketchily in the illusion of flesh by the personality shell, which those about you experience as yourself. That which you came prepared to live for and to die for is the cause of Love and Light. The need at this time upon the planet which you now serve is great. The time is Harvest and those who have awakened have awakened to the memory that they are here to serve in a specific way.

[Tape ends.]

This morning I used my backpack blower to blow the leaves in the side and back yards into areas where I could mulch them with my big mower, Venus.

This afternoon I went on an errand run with my first stop being at AutoZone where I bought two cans of 50:1 2 cycle engine oil. Then my second stop was at Feeder’s Supply where I bought a bag of bird seed. My third stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some food for myself. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I bought some moisturizing cream and some Pepsi-Zero.

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

August 19

The Roof Of The Heart

I am of the principle of Jesus the Christ and send greetings in the full consciousness of Love.

Your ears are filled this morning with the sounds of construction as a neighboring domicile receives a new roof for protection from those elements which rot and decay the dwelling below it. So, each of you too must needs gaze at the roof of the heart and mind and learn objectively of those openings in the protective cover of Light which allow thoughts which decay and cause harm to the heart and mind.

Build your roof anew each day with shingles of trust and faith, affirmation and right desire. For these hopes and affirmations are the Spirit’s protection against an often stormy experiential universe.

Aid too in building those roofs of those whom you wish to enfold either in Love or in atonement, for it is well to cherish and protect the jewels which your treasure-house contains.

We leave you in the prosperous peace of those who dwell in the Spirit of Love, now and always. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn quote comes from August 9, 1978:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I greet you in the love and the light of the infinite Creator. May we of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator extend our blessings and our Love to each of you as you sit in this group this afternoon. We hover above you in a very large and well-appointed craft with our comforts taken care of, my friends, with all our needs satisfied, the vehicles that carry our spirits totally removed from a condition of want. This, my friends, allows our spirits a state of unlimited freedom. And as we travel without limitation from one level to another within the creation of the Creator, we seek what we have always sought. We seek what you would term happiness.

My friends, if happiness does not mean physical needs being satisfied, then it begins to mean something else and we, my friends, as a civilization, have traveled many more dimensions in thought than you can imagine in pursuit of that which is real and which satisfies our understandings. And we have found one understanding only that constitutes our happiness, and that understanding, my friends, is very, very simple. The understanding that we are one, and that our oneness is that of Love, is the complete and total message that we have come to give those of planet Earth.

Hatonn wanted to share the nature of their being and why they contacted this group. They began by saying we hover above you in a large and well-furnished craft with our comforts taken care of, and with all our needs satisfied, and the vehicles that carry our spirits totally removed from a condition of want, so this allows our spirits a state of unlimited freedom, and as we travel without limitation from one level to another within the creation of the Creator, we seek what you would term happiness. Then Hatonn said if happiness does not mean physical needs being satisfied, then it begins to mean something else, and we have traveled many more dimensions in thought than you can imagine in pursuit of that which is real and which satisfies our understandings, so we have found one understanding only that constitutes our happiness, and that understanding is very simple, for it is the understanding that we are one, and that our oneness is that of Love which is the complete message that we have come to give those of planet Earth. On October 13, 2019, Q’uo described the nature of happiness:

Thus, we recommend that one look at the experience of happiness as that which also might be balanced to one’s benefit, so that the happiness which may have its antithesis as sadness, be seen as transitory experiences of the nature of your reality and of your own being. As one then sees a new level of happiness, perhaps emerging within one that is more spiritually oriented, the happiness of the feeling of Love unconditional for all those about one, the happiness of seeking the One at each moment of one’s existence, the happiness of feeling Love for all of the creation, and so forth.

That you are one, my brothers and sisters, and that the nature of unity is Love, is the truth as we understand it, that we come to share. For you see, my friends, if you are not distracted by the demands of your day-to-day struggle for existence within the physical plane, then you are free to examine your existence as a being in infinite time and space. Now, because you are a being, my friends, there is always a dynamic between that which you now understand and that which you desire to know. We are as intense in our desire to progress as are you. The only difference, my friends, is that we have discovered that we can progress most effectively as a species with our minds and our hearts linked in one desire.

And what desire is it, my friends, that gives us happiness? It is the desire, my friends, to share our Love with others, the desire to be of service to others. For we have found, since we have no need of the limitations of the physical dimensions, that in spirit “each of you are we” and “we are each of you.” My friends, we are one being. We are not two. We are not several. Whatever the difference is in our condition, those differences are an illusion. For we are all one being formed in Love. Like rays of an infinite and everlasting Light, we have shot out through the prisms of our hopes and our dreams, and we are each in a unique vibratory position, relative to that Great Central Sun of being which we call the Creator.

Then Hatonn said that you are one, my brothers and sisters, and that the nature of unity is Love and the truth as we understand it that we come to share, for you see if you are not distracted by the demands of your day-to-day struggle for existence within the physical plane, then you are free to examine your existence as a being in infinite time and space, and because you are a being there is always a dynamic between that which you understand and that which you desire to know, so we are as intense in our desire to progress as are you, but the only difference is that we have discovered that we can progress most effectively as a species with our minds and our hearts linked in one desire. Then Hatonn went on to say it is the desire to share our Love with others, the desire to be of service to others that gives us happiness, for we have found, since we have no need of the limitations of the physical dimensions, that in spirit “each of you are we” and “we are each of you,” so we are one being, and whatever the difference is in our condition, those differences are an illusion, for we are all one being formed in Love, and like rays of an infinite and everlasting Light, we have shot out through the prisms of our hopes and our dreams, and we are each in a unique vibratory position, relative to that Great Central Sun of being which we call the Creator. On February 25, 2023, Q’uo described the great central sun:

There are various levels of the Logos type of entities within the One Infinite creation of the Creator of all that there is. The Primal Logos may be seen as also the Great Central Sun where the beginning of creation takes place. This Primal Logos is what you would also call the concept of Love. The concept of Love is created when the one Infinite Creator focuses Its desire to know Itself through this Love, this creative power that then becomes able to create what we call the infinite creation.

In meditation, my friends, you can begin to take the prism effect away. When a prism is removed from a light source, the many, many colors and shades of your rainbow become one white Light. And so, it is with each of you, my friends. It is as though you sat in love and contemplation together. Your vibrations shoot off into infinite space as a collection of harmonizing colors and yet, remove that understanding one dimension closer to the Creator, and one sees only the white Light of all embracing Love. Love, my friends, with a purpose. For nothing in creation exists without purpose. Each of you, my friends, has a purpose.

In the past, your contemplations of tomorrow have brought about the present. Those things that you have desired at that time have come to fruition at this time. Yes, my friends, ask and you shall receive, and those things that you have asked for you have received. The future, my friends, as you call that illusion, is yours completely, at this moment. That which you desire will form and sculpture the harmony and the arrangements of your events to come in the future. Therefore, we ask you, desire carefully, my friends. And when you have considered your desire, prosecute it, intensify it, purify it and seek it with all your heart.

Hatonn went on to say in meditation you can begin to take the prism effect away, and when a prism is removed from a Light source, the many colors and shades of your rainbow become one white Light, and so it is with each of you, for it is as though you sat in Love and contemplation together, and your vibrations shoot off into infinite space as a collection of harmonizing colors and yet, remove that understanding one dimension closer to the Creator, and one sees only the white Light of all embracing Love with a purpose, for nothing in creation exists without purpose, and each of you has a purpose. Hatonn continued by saying in the past, your contemplations of tomorrow have brought about the present, so those things that you have desired at that time have come to fruition at this time, so ask and you shall receive, and those things that you have asked for you have received, and the future as you call that illusion, is yours at this moment, for that which you desire will form the harmony of your events to come in the future, so we ask you, desire carefully, and when you have considered your desire purify it and seek it with all your heart. On June 19, 2005, Q’uo described how we can seek with all of our heart:

Visualize what you need very precisely and then, my sister, realize that you have created a thing, for thoughts are things. Let it take wing! Let it work within itself, as this instrument has been studying. Do not hold it to yourself and repeat over those things that you need. But, each day, form one complete visualization. Ask with all your heart. Then release it.

Did the one known as Jesus the Christ not say to pray, “This day, give us our daily bread”? It is important to keep the focus local, to keep the moment as that moment which is present, and yet at the same time to know that, as a person of power, what you visualize you will create. We always say to this instrument… be careful what you ask for, for you shall receive it.

In meditation, open your heart to your desire. Enter the Love that is about you and is empowering you. We are not with you to inform you as to what your desire might be. We cannot suggest to your planet and to its people the content of their desires. Nor should you, as you go among your people, judge others on the content of their desires, so they be different than yours. But for yourself, attempt in Love to seek that which you most truly desire. And the white Light and Love of the creation will be yours to use.

Hatonn continued by saying in meditation, open your heart to your desire, and enter the Love that is about you and is empowering you, but we are not with you to inform you as to what your desire might be, and we cannot suggest to your planet and to its people the content of their desires, nor should you, as you go among your people, but judge others on the content of their desires, so they be different than yours, but for yourself, attempt in Love to seek that which you truly desire, and the white Light and Love of the creation will be yours to use. On October 4, 1998, Q’uo spoke of the value of knowing what we truly desire:

And in the silence you can put the question: “What do I truly desire?” and then you can listen. Listening to that graceful and yet muscular silence is a discipline of the personality that will never disappoint the persistent listener. Simply allowing the distortions of the moment, the confusions of the day to slip away can put one into the heart’s sanctum sanctorum, that inner sacristy of silence and prayer where the Creator waits infinitely and patiently. The Creator awaits each of you within your own heart, within that deep silence that is within that room within the heart, for truly the holy of holies is within you, and within you are not only all of the instructions for this life and for this period of learning but, indeed, all of the instructions whatsoever for the you that you are before time was.

I would like to transfer at this time to the one known as N. I am Hatonn.

(N channeling)

We greet you in the light and love of the Creator. My friends, it gives me pleasure, as you might say, to be with you at this time. We feel the energy generated by your group is a most joyous occasion, limited by your senses. You are not aware of the vibrations you send out as a group. These vibrations spread unstoppingly and affect beings. Some are conscious of this, most are not.

When you come together as a group, what you will call Love is generated, my friends. You recognize it as high or good feelings or indescribable feelings within you. It is but a small, small speck, we would say, of the total picture that we consider to be reality. We do not feel superior to you, for truly we are you! We realize this can be abstract, stating that individuals are in reality not individuals but are one. If you truly desire to find the truth of what we said, we suggest meditation—as usual. This method will aid you greatly in solving the puzzles of not seeing reality.

My friends, we have talked to you on various occasions, and we feel there are very few times in which we have not mentioned meditation. We feel we pound it into your heads, so to speak. But only you can reach within your head. And if you feel you are not achieving this as quickly as you would like, we ask you, do not worry about it. For in reality, my friends, there is no time, there is no hurry. We are available to you because at this particular point of your journey there is an opportunity for you to become aware more quickly. We feel very good communicating with you in this manner. But it is not necessary, for if any individual desires our thoughts, we are with you instantly; no matter the situation you are in, no matter what you are doing. It won’t matter, we are with you, if you desire. We send you love, my friends; we love you, and we feel the vibrations of love within you. It is a joyous occasion. At this time I will transfer this contact. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

(Carla channeling)

[The recording becomes difficult to hear to the end of the tape.]

I am with this instrument. I am Hatonn. As my Laitos moves among you at this time to work with some of those of you who desire to become channels. I would at this time attempt to make contact and speak just a few words to the one known as Jim McCarty. If he would relax and mentally request our contact, we will [inaudible]. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

I am Hatonn. I am again with the instrument. We are adjusting our beam to make it more of a sharp and less broad band and then we will again attempt to contact the one known as Jim McCarty. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

I am again with this instrument. We thank you for your patience. We are having difficulty with the one known as Jim due to the large reserve of energy which lies within this instrument’s aura. We are generating some, shall we say, feed back, and it is not a smooth contact with you. However, at any time the instrument desires to work with our contact, he needs only mentally request our conditioning, and the one known as Laitos will be with you.

At this time, I would like to work with the one known as A. If she would relax, we will attempt to say a sentence or two through this instrument. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

I am again with this instrument. We thank the one known as A for the privilege of working with her. We have barely made contact. However, there is some tension or confusion, as you might call it, on the part of the instrument, due to largeness of [inaudible] and again we say that we are most happy to work with each new instrument at any time it may be requested.

If you will bear with us, we would like to attempt to contact the one known as E. It is necessary that the instrument relax and speak thoughts as they float through his mind without regard to their analysis or judgment. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

(E channeling)

I am Hatonn…

[Pause]

(Carla channeling)

I am again with this instrument. I am Hatonn, and we greatly thank the one known as E. The experience of contact somewhat blew away the channel. This is a common experience and easily overcome with practice. We are most pleased and so happy to work with each of you. If you can be patient for one moment more, we would like this opportunity to acquaint the one known as H with our vibration. We wish to do this very carefully. [Inaudible] the one known as Laitos will pass amongst each of you and attempt to aid you, strengthening your own spiritual vibrations. For, my friends, this is all our conditioning wave is, and it is not, shall we say, a wave that is foreign to you but one which we attempt to tailor to yours so that the cosmic energy that we are able to tap into by our conditioning is made available to you in your own unique pattern. At this time I would open the meeting for questions.

Questioner: Do you feel there is still a need for more channels like we have in this case?

Hatonn: I am aware of your question. We have a great need for channels. But it is not in a sense of an attempt to start, shall we say, an organization, which grows in numbers and converts as with the church. There is a need for the truth on your planet, a dire need which is expressed by many. The truth has in many cases become distorted by those who are the most ignorant to offer it. We ourselves are aware that we distort the truth by speaking in verbal communication rather than allowing only silence instead of thoughts. But we feel that you, too, see, shall we say, an archetypical method of communication, which we employ and which uses a “now” organization, or shall we say geometry, ¹ so we possibly have less distortions in our discussion of true understanding. A great part of our truth lies in the fact that we do not claim to be telling the entire truth, for it is our humble feeling that we do not know the absolute truth.

However, many of those among your people are reaching out in their day-to-day lives for a meaning which is beyond that which is experienced in the daily realm of your being. It is possible to consider, if one is a philosopher, that there may be no meaning; and many of those who seek spiritually have, sadly but honestly, come to the conclusion that all things that they hear are less than true, and therefore there is no ultimate meaning. We bring a message of Love, a message of ultimate joy, meaning and brightness to the universe.

We do not say that all things are easy on a day-to-day basis. We do not turn our backs on the horrors and indignities that you experience. We say only that they are lessons and therefore a part of a journey whose end is, surely and without any error, that of total love and total joy. We say this to people who are seeking that truth, but do not want to believe that life is random and that all things may be wrong. We ask people to consider our words and only if they speak to that which is already in their hearts to adopt it as something to examine and investigate on their own. Yes, my brother, there is a great need of channels. Not of the UFO message as such, but only of Love. Love itself, my brother, is our only message. Does this answer your question?

Questioner: Yes, thank you.

Hatonn: Is there another question?

[Pause]

Hatonn: I am working with this instrument, if you will be patient.

[Pause]

I would like to respond briefly to a question which has not been asked, but which was earlier asked before your meditation. We refer to the question of good and evil. It is one to record, my friends. We ask you to understand that like all opposites, that it is the result of being in motion. When one is in motion, there is that which is ahead and that which is behind. If you could understand yourselves as beings which have been sent out from a great central source, and which are at varying speeds making a great circular return to that central source, then you can begin to understand good and evil.

At one point in your evolution, my friends, you were at the farthest point from the central source, which we call Creator for want of another word. There was nothing behind and nothing in front of you, when you began your travel. As you moved toward that great Light, that great central sun, Light is before you and darkness behind you. Wisdom before you and ignorance behind you. Those who wish to gain power may gain it in one of two ways—by aiding and abetting that journey towards the Light which is called good, or by, shall we say, applying the brakes in progress and attempting to reenter that portion of the cycle which has already been which is called evil.

Now Hatonn began to speak about good and evil. They began by saying I would like to respond briefly to a question which has not been asked, but which was earlier asked before your meditation, and we refer to the question of good and evil, so it is one to record, and we ask you to understand that like all opposites, that it is the result of being in motion, for when one is in motion, there is that which is ahead and that which is behind, so if you could understand yourselves as beings which have been sent out from a great Central Source, and which are at varying speeds making a great circular return to that Central Source, then you can begin to understand good and evil. Now Hatonn said at one point in your evolution you were at the farthest point from the Central Source, which we call Creator for want of another word since there was nothing behind and nothing in front of you when you began your travel, and as you moved toward that great Central Sun, Light is before you and darkness behind you, wisdom before you and ignorance behind you, so those who wish to gain power may gain it in one of two ways: by aiding that journey towards the Light, which is called good, or by applying the brakes in progress and attempting to reenter that portion of the cycle which has already been which is called evil. On April 29, 1979, Hatonn spoke about the journey that we take towards the Light:

There may be a finite number, but we cannot find the end of the densities which lead to the perfect life. Therefore, we are in the position of saying that, as far as we know, the path towards the Light is infinite. It is a mystery to us how a path could be infinite and yet one could reach the end. We have no knowledge of the end of this path, for it disappears into perfection.

If you can understand that at the end of your journey, when you are without motion, there will be no good or evil. It may help you to that which you see as evil at this point. The principle which drives those who are vibrating in what you would call the evil range is that of separation. They are attempting to separate themselves from the great central Source. They are attempting to become more and more individualized, thereby shutting themselves off from power and Love of the creation. The type of power that this generates is similar to that which is generated by the applying of brakes in one of your automobiles. It is a friction which generates a good deal of heat. Because this power is so obvious in being seen and felt, and because power in and of itself is admired on planet Earth, many vibrate in the direction of evil, for they can see that they are powerful. Those who attempt to accelerate towards the good are deliberately giving up more and more of their individuality and taking on more and more of the Love and power of that Central Sun source.

That which is separate within them is gradually burnt away, and thus they become Lights that truly lighten the darkness up. We wish you to understand, my friends, that there is nothing good or evil about good and evil; they are valid choices in a universe of motion. We have found it is appropriate to us to accelerate our journey towards the Central source, for we have found that union with each other and with the Creator is joy and happiness, and we prefer laughter to power. We can only ask that you have compassion for the great evil that is within your energy at this time. All of those who are applying the brakes will one day choose otherwise. That much is a metaphor, my friends. Meanwhile, monitor your own progress and make your own choice.

Hatonn began by saying if you can understand that at the end of your journey, when you are without motion, there will be no good or evil, and it may help you to understand that which you see as evil, the principle which drives those who are vibrating in the evil range is that of separation, for they are attempting to separate themselves from the great central Source by attempting to become more individualized, thereby shutting themselves off from the power and Love of the creation, so the type of power that this generates is similar to that which is generated by applying the brakes in one of your automobiles, and it is a friction which generates a good deal of heat, so because this power is obvious in being seen and felt, and because power is admired on planet Earth, many vibrate in the direction of evil, for they can see that they are powerful, and those who attempt to accelerate towards the good are deliberately giving up more of their individuality and taking on more of the Love and power of that Central Sun source. Then Hatonn continued by saying that which is separate within them is gradually burnt away, and thus they become Lights that truly light the darkness up, and we wish you to understand that there is nothing good or evil about good and evil, for they are valid choices in a universe of motion, and we have found it is appropriate to us to accelerate our journey towards the Central Source, for we have found that union with each other and with the Creator is joy and happiness, and we prefer laughter to power, and we can only ask that you have compassion for the great evil that is within your energy at this time, so all of those who are applying the brakes will one day choose otherwise, so monitor your progress and make your own choice. On March 29, 2001, Q’uo described how each of us seeks union with the Creator:

The self of each seeker desires union with the Creator, desires knowledge of the Creator, of the self and of the creation. This knowledge, passionately sought, willingly sacrificed for, may only be obtained when one is willing to give of the self in a degree which is reflective of this great desire. Thus, the experiences that each so eagerly seeks within each incarnation are dearly bought. The greater sacrifice purchases, shall we say, the greater knowledge, experience, union, and presence of the one Creator.

Are there any other questions?

[Pause]

I would close through the one known as B. I am Hatonn.

(B channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am now with this instrument. My friends, you spoke to us about, shall we say, your individual path. My friends, there is much ahead in your spiritual growth, my friends. You will reap a reward well worth the path of which you think is lost. My friends, continue in your meditations. I will leave you now. I am Hatonn. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning I went outside and used the garden hose and wand to water the Dianthus along the parking area in front of my home. Then I used my backpack blower to blow the leaves from my Tulip Tree in the back yard out of my neighbor’s driveway and into my back yard so that I could put them into four garbage cans for yard waste pickup next Thursday.

This afternoon I drove over to the Anchorage Post Office to mail a letter that contained my eulogy for Carla’s passing into larger life to my cousin who lives in Wickenburg, AZ.

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

August 18

Contentment

I am the principle of that force behind creation, the Love of Jesus the Christ. I greet you in the full consciousness which is the consciousness of Love.

This instrument is not prepared for what we are to say this morning. For this instrument thought we were speaking upon the subject of contentment. No matter how active the mind of mankind, the Spirit is ever more active in its capacity to surprise, for we speak of a higher contentment, the contentment of vulnerability and seeming lack; the contentment of babes unclothed and people hungry; the contentment that becomes a fire within to clothe the naked and feed the hungry; that contentment which makes all creatures children of a meaningful and life-giving God and all God’s creatures meaningful and life-giving people.

Look in contentment at the world of strife and need and respond with a full heart, praying ever the invitation to the Spirit of the living Christ to enter into every seeming lack, in meditation, and multiply plenty. Your consciousness is a gift and a responsibility. May you be content to love others as you love yourself.

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

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn channeling comes from July 5, 1978:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I greet you in the love and the light of the infinite Creator. I am with the instrument. It is a blessing to speak with each of you, and we greet those who have not sat with this group for awhile and offer them our Love. My friends, we always speak to you of one simple thing: the Love of the Creator. We are aware that, from your horizon, this Love does not seem to be accessible in many ways in your daily life. And yet we say to you, my friends, that this Love is closer to you than your breathing; more easily accessible than your own hands and feet; more familiar to you than your own thoughts. This Love was the pattern from which each of you was stamped. Yes, my friends, each of you stamped in complete identity. And that same Love that made you each the same has touched each with a unique part in that identity so that the universe is an identity and a harmony at the same time.

Where are you going, my brothers, that you can use this information? To what can you reach out, my sisters, so that you can make use of the knowledge of Love? What dramatic inquiry can you prosecute so that you can demonstrate Love in the court of your daily life? Perhaps some of you, my friends, have had the experience of having an object in your lives, some, shall we say, daily, simple, physical object such as what this instrument would call a carpet which has become dull and worn and perhaps torn in places through years of daily, careless use. And yet, my friends, if you pick it up and look on the unused side, it is still perfect. In daily use, Love becomes worn and shabby. This, my friends, is through carelessness of use. We always urge meditation, and it is simply because, in meditation, you establish contact with that part of yourself that understands the nature of Love.

To begin this session Hatonn said they always speak to us of one thing: the Love of the Creator, and they are aware that, from our experience, this Love does not seem to be accessible in many ways in our life, yet they say to us that this Love is closer to us than our breathing; more easily accessible than our own hands and feet; more familiar to us than our thoughts, for this Love was the pattern from which each of us was stamped in complete identity, and that same Love that made each of us the same has touched each with a unique part in that identity so that the universe is an identity and a harmony at the same time. Then Hatonn said: “Where are you going, my brothers, that you can use this information? To what can you reach out, my sisters, so that you can make use of the knowledge of Love? What dramatic inquiry can you prosecute so that you can demonstrate Love in the court of your daily life?” Hatonn went on to say perhaps some of us have had the experience of having an object in our lives, some simple, physical object such as what Carla would call a carpet which has become dull and worn and perhaps torn in places through years of daily use, and yet if we pick it up and look on the unused side, it is still perfect, and in daily use Love becomes worn, and this is through carelessness of use, so Hatonn always urges meditation, and it is because, in meditation, we establish contact with that part of ourself that understands the nature of Love. On January 22, 1995, Q’uo spoke of the nature of Love:

If entities have a desire to experience Love to the best of their understanding of this concept, then the desire will be to give Love without expectation of return, for that which is Love is that which gives rather than that which takes, though it is true that Love, when fully experienced, is that which both gives and receives. However, the concept which you have spoken of here is that which is felt by one and not another, and in this case, there is the participation in what is felt to be Love by one and not the other. Therefore, the one who feels the Love, if it be Love indeed, then this entity would desire to give to the other that which the other wished, and this entity would seek, then, to know the desires of the other, and, once having ascertained what these desires were, would bend every effort to satisfy these desires.

For entities to truly know Love it is necessary to surrender whatever idea the self may have as regards the nature of Love and then to be moved by the power of Love. In most cases, in our opinion, upon your planet at this time entities perceive only portions of Love, those portions which are more to their own desires and definitions, those aspects of Love which are more likely to feed their self-identified needs, and, therefore, the experience of Love is only partial. If one wishes to truly be of service to another by loving another one must determine what service is desired by the one loved.

No matter how worn and shabby your ideals, your actions, or your concepts have become, there always remains the eternally pristine side where Love flourishes in its original form. It is a great trick of mental discipline to reverse your understanding of Love so that the clean, new side shines forth through your actions and words but it is infinitely possible at any time for you to do so. We are aware of the moving picture which you saw this evening, and although we are aware of the many yawns and giggles which were the reaction of each of you due to the aesthetically inadequate presentation of these ideas, yet, we wish to share with you the basic truth of, as you would call it, life beyond physical death.

We are aware, my friends, that death is a transformation which seems most final and frightening. And it is because of this very nature of death that your peoples avoid contemplation of their lives in the perspective of their eventual demise. Yet, what we urge you to do—namely, to meditate, to learn, to grow, to love, and to remember the Creator—would be quite senseless were it not for a continued existence in which you would be able to reap the benefit of your growing and learning. For, indeed, my friends, we are aware that there are times when, in order to grow, to learn and to give, you must make decisions which are not as much, shall we say, fun as decisions which have little obvious spiritual advantage.

Then Q’uo said no matter how worn our ideals, actions, or concepts have become there always remains the eternally pristine side where Love flourishes in its original form, so it is a great trick of mental discipline to reverse our understanding of Love so that the clean side shines forth through our actions and words, but it is possible at any time for us to do so, for they are aware of the moving picture which we saw this evening, and although they are aware of the yawns and giggles which were the reaction of each of us due to the aesthetically inadequate presentation of these ideas, yet they wish to share with us the basic truth of life beyond physical death. Then Hatonn said they are aware that death is a transformation which seems frightening, and it is because of this nature of death that our people avoid contemplation of their lives in the perspective of their eventual demise, yet what they urge us to do—to meditate, to grow, to love, and to remember the Creator—would be senseless were it not for a continued existence in which we would be able to reap the benefit of our growing and learning, for they are aware that there are times when, in order to grow, to learn and to give, we must make decisions which are not as much fun as decisions which have little spiritual advantage. On November 7, 1982, Latwii spoke of the nature of death as we perceive it in various ways:

To reply in broad terms for the masses of people upon your planet would be a great distortion, for each entity is quite aware of the phenomenon of death, and has either a general type of acceptance or avoidance of that concept. Some fear the death only because it is a great mystery, and the unknown often causes entities to find fear within themselves. Some fear the death because they have not yet learned to live, and have not yet learned what they came to live for, and are aware that the death shall come surely and perhaps they shall not be ready. Some gladly accept their own physical departure from your illusion, for its catalyst weighs heavily upon their shoulders and they yearn only for rest. Some welcome the death because they seek another adventure and feel certain that death shall bring it. For each within your illusion there is some response to life and to death. Each is unique.

Therefore, we take this opportunity to affirm to you that you, my friends, live. Indeed “live,” is not a meaningful word, for we all are. To live suggests that one dies, and this is not the case. We all are. It is our understanding, my friends—in our limited understanding, we wish to stress—that we all are, regardless of time, or space, or dimension, or mortality. All of these things are illusions and there are many, many illusions in the Creator’s creation; many ways of experiencing consciousness. You, my friends, experience it only one way of many. You have experienced much, each of you, and slowly, slowly, you add to the store of experience. And slowly, slowly, that experience adds to your store of personal wisdom. And slowly, my friends, your wisdom draws you closer to the Love of the Creator. It is as though you were the moth going about the flame or the planet going about the sun. The orbits seem perpetual and yet, in the fullness of time, the moth is attracted to the flame, the sun explodes and becomes one with the planets and the universe; unity is achieved.

My friends, I will pause at this time and condition each of you. Laitos is with me. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

I am Hatonn. I am again with this instrument. I am conditioning this instrument. At this time, I would open the meeting to questions. Does anyone have a question?

[Pause]

I am giving the instrument an image. It is that of a sea anemone waving beneath the waters of the ocean. It moves ceaselessly with the tides and the currents, never still, always giving beauty, always responsive to its environment. You, my friends, are rooted in Love. The waters move about you as it is proper for them to do, bringing you joy and sorrow. The good clean waters of experience move about you one way and then another. Rooted in Love, my friends, you may bloom at full tide and empty. Rooted in love, my friends, you may always be graceful, always full of joy. The concept of beauty is very dull upon your planet for beauty, my friends, is everywhere. Rooted in love you may see that beauty and feel that joy and those about you may, through you, feel and see that which is true and that which is real. My friends, we are among you as those who drop seeds. As it is said in your holy works, the seeds are dropped—from whatever source, my friends. As the seeds drop into your life, my friends, see that you welcome them and cultivate them and as you go about, if there is someone asking for a seed, a thought, a boost from you, be aware, my friends, for you are creators too.

Now Hatonn spoke of the nature of our being by saying they take this opportunity to affirm that we are alive, for “live” is not a meaningful word, for we all are alive, and to live suggests that one dies, and this is not the case, for we all are alive, and it is their understanding that we all are alive regardless of time, or space, or dimension because all of these things are illusions, and there are many illusions in the Creator’s creation and many ways of experiencing consciousness, for we experience it only one way, so we have experienced much, and slowly we add to the store of experience, and slowly that experience adds to our store of personal wisdom, and slowly our wisdom draws us closer to the Love of the Creator, so it is as though we were the moth going about the flame or the planet going about the sun, and the orbits seem perpetual and yet, in the fullness of time, the sun explodes and becomes one with the planets and the universe, and unity is achieved. Hatonn continued by saying they are giving Carla an image, and it is that of a sea anemone waving beneath the waters of the ocean which moves ceaselessly with the tides and the currents, never still, always giving beauty, always responsive to its environment, so we are rooted in Love, and the waters move about us as it is proper for them to do, bringing us joy and sorrow, so the clean waters of experience move about us one way and another, and rooted in Love we may bloom at full tide and empty, always being graceful, always full of joy, for the concept of beauty is dull upon our planet, and beauty is everywhere, for rooted in Love we may see that beauty and feel that joy, and those about us may–through us–feel and see that which is true, and they are among us as those who drop seeds because it is said in our holy works, the seeds are dropped from whatever source, for as the seeds drop into our life we can see that we welcome them and cultivate them, and as we move about, if there is someone asking for a seed, or a thought from us be aware, for we are Creators too. On April 21, 2002, Q’uo said that we all are Creators:

Certainly, it is to be hoped that more and more of your experience within the illusion is able to take on that centered feeling which graces and blesses all environments with a beauty that comes from within. But the concept of remaining centered at all times sets up for entities such as this instrument the incorrect idea of coming up to a standard or being considered inadequate, and we would not suggest in any way by what we are saying that any state of mind is inadequate or wrong. Precisely what you feel is that which is right for you, yet you are Creators. You are those who have all of the infinite resources of that spiritual part of self that has nothing to do with the illusion. You are people of magic and power, and you can, as this instrument was saying earlier, dream a new present for yourself and envision a new future. You can use techniques that allow you to release old pain and embrace the present and the future with confidence.

I leave you in the love and the light of the infinite Creator. I am known to you as Hatonn. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning, I noticed that the height of the fountain in the fishpond was only an inch or two, and the water level had dropped four inches, with no sign of the water ever having been outside of the fishpond, so I pulled the netting back and took to top off of the schemer. After taking the screen off of the motor I didn’t see any break in the tube that connects the pump to the fountain, as I was expecting to see. So, I filled the pond up with water until it barely covered the tube for the fountain, and then I plugged in the pump. Much to my surprise, the fountain was working perfectly. So, I threw in some Aquasafe to neutralize the chlorine in the water, and, with a sigh of relief and an unsolved puzzle as to how this all came about, I thanked my lucky stars that the fountain is working again.

This afternoon I went upstairs and used the carpet sweeper to clean the carpet in the hall. Then I used a wet mop to clean the hall and all three rooms in Benny’s apartment. Then I went down into the basement and ironed the pillowcases and flat sheet for the double bed in the bedroom directly under my bedroom. Then I put the flat sheet, blanket, and bed spread back on the bed. Then I put the two pillows and two pillows with shams back on the bed.

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

August 17

Come, Holy Spirit

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

Your generation shall pass away, just as this morning shall pass away into evening and all the works of your hands and the thoughts of your minds shall seem as shadows.

Gazing at one’s day and one’s life in terms of the losses involved is a logical and understandable method of dealing with the accidents of experience. Yet in each cell of your body lies a consciousness of Love, joy and peace, a consciousness which can speak only mutely and only when asked for.

It is the consciousness of the Holy Spirit, as you would call us, for we are closer to you than you can imagine and instantaneously ready to flood the consciousness with comfort and healing. You have but to ask, truly wishing to release the sense of loss that experience sometimes brings; truly being willing to yield your sorrows, let go of bitterness, and forgive iniquity.

This instrument’s favorite musician, Johann Sebastian Bach, has expressed the musical thought, “Komm Heilige Geist.” This simple prayer, “Come, Holy Spirit,” is that which opens the door to that peace in which we leave you now and ever; the perfect peace that lies forever beyond the understanding but is more real than any loss. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn quote comes from July 3, 1978:

(Carla channeling)

Hatonn: I greet you in the love and the light of the One Who is All. I am Hatonn of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator. I hover 7.3 miles above your dwelling place. Aboard our ship, as you would call it, are more than 4,000 of our brothers and sisters who bear one name, my friends, the name of our home, as you would call it, our planet, the planet of Hatonn. We come from a planet, my friends, which has come through a great death and a great birth. The kind of birth into an age in which we no longer need the artificial creations of our kind. We have come into an age, my friends, where we can dwell in the creation of the Creator. Our planet is now a sentient being. All wildlife, as you call it, is conscious in a way that most of you [inaudible]. And we ourselves can speak without tongue and hear without ear, for we are in a vibration in which time and space are plastic, in which we can move from one level to another with conscious awareness and understanding. Our conscious awareness and understanding have led us to one awareness and one understanding. And it is for this reason that we have come among you and your people at this time.

We come bearing witness to the Creator, my friends. And yet the Creator is not as you have pictured Him. He is not a judge. He is not a man, nor, my friends, is He a woman. He is not a being. My friends, we bear witness to Love. We bear witness to all that there is which is Love. This is the understanding that we have come so far to share. And why, my friends, do we come among you at this time to speak of Love? You, my friends, approach a planetary death and a planetary birth. For as the cycles grow in your time and your space, in the locality of your present existence, the time and space have rolled around for a vibrational change. Not my friends, a vibrational change as you would understand it. We are not speaking of physical things but of the energy which creates physical things. It is difficult to explain to you of the vibrational change in which death and life are transformed while the physical body continues to die and live. And yet, this is what we bring to you. And we bring it to you because so many among your people, my friends, know that there is something beyond the physical body and the physical death. There is something that is more than the brief span of their lifetime and the brief span of experience in this lifetime.

Hatonn began by describing the nature of their purpose and the nature of the Creator. They said I hover 7.3 miles above your dwelling place, and aboard our ship are more than 4,000 of our brothers and sisters who bear the name of our planet of Hatonn, and we come from a planet which has come through a great death and a great birth, the kind of birth into an age in which we no longer need the artificial creations of our kind because we have come into an age where we can dwell in the creation of the Creator, for our planet is now a sentient being, so all wildlife is conscious in a way that most of you [inaudible] ,and we can speak without tongue and hear without ear, for we are in a vibration in which time and space are plastic, in which we can move from one level to another with conscious awareness and understanding, and our conscious awareness has led us to one awareness and one understanding, so it is for this reason that we have come among you at this time. Then Hatonn said we come bearing witness to the Creator, and yet the Creator is not as you have pictured Him; He is not a judge; He is not a man; nor is He a woman. He is not a being, for we bear witness to all that there is which is Love, so this is the understanding that we have come so far to share, and we come among you at this time to speak of Love because you approach a planetary death and a planetary birth, for as the cycles grow in your time and your space, the time and space have rolled around for a vibrational change, not as you understand it, but as the energy which creates physical things, so it is difficult to explain to you of the vibrational change in which death and life are transformed while the physical body continues to die and live, and yet this is what we bring to you because so many among your people know that there is something beyond the physical body and the physical death, so there is something that is more than the brief span of their lifetime and the brief span of experience in this lifetime. On December 11, 1996, Q’uo of the nature of one awareness for us:

For the one who is more aware of the internal workings of the mind, that one who is aware of the layers of meaning and of consciousness, the image of a subtle and complex network of mind works better. The mind has great depth, moving ultimately into that Self which is All. There is a kind of geometry to the mind. There are pathways within it. And there are entities within your culture, within each culture upon your planet, who have moved deeply into subtleties in discriminating between one level and another, between one tone poem of a mood and another, between one awareness and another.

Either of these kinds of path will work. It is simply that one must find the path or the combination of thoughts that will yield to the self that which is sought, which is an increased trust that all shall be made clear in good time.

The simple use of time is recommended to those who wish to work with the processes of perception. When an entity takes time with the self it is a great help to the inner workings of that self. Some find that the greatest gift that they can give to themselves is silence, and we do recommend, always, the daily silence, the listening within to that still, small voice that speaks in that silence with thoughts beyond words, with food that feeds the deeper person. Some find conversations with the Creator very helpful.

My friends, the answers to the questions you seek are all about you, written in the holy works in all of what you call your religions and philosophies. Many, many teachers walk the Earth at this time who speak the truth and yet, my friends, so disillusioned have your people become that your people no longer believe in their books, nor their leaders. They do not even believe, totally, in the inner voice that compels them towards the seeking for that which is beyond life and death. We come mostly, my friends, because your peoples can understand our presence with more ease than they can understand books and your orthodox teachings. We have come to add our voice of truth as we know it to the many voices of the same truth as it is known already. We come by the millions, my friends.

Far across the universe, across your galaxy, and across the reaches of other times and other space, there are many civilizations who have crossed into a vibration in which the truth of the Creator is obvious. Where this is so, my friends, beings have no choice except to turn to a life of service to others. With understanding of the Creator, my friends, comes the information that all your needs will be taken care of. Thus, we have no more needs. We have meat and drink, as it says in your holy works, that your people know not of, because our vibrational change made it possible for us to create that which was needed by thought. We no longer have need of government as you know it, for we can communicate our desires to a central computer which does the will of the people instantly. We are then free, my friends, to love. Love of others is much easier, my friends, when you can see the vibration of Love in each of your brothers and sisters. The selection of a mate, my friends, is much easier when you can see the connection going back many, many lifetimes with your appropriate partner.

Hatonn continued by saying the answers to the questions you seek are all about you, written in the holy works in all of your religions and philosophies, for many teachers walk the Earth at this time who speak the truth, and yet so disillusioned have your people become that they no longer believe in their books, nor their leaders, and they do not believe in the inner voice that compels them towards the seeking for that which is beyond life and death, so we come because your people can understand our presence with more ease than they can understand books and your orthodox teachings, and we have come to add our voice of truth to the many voices of the same truth as it is known already.

On January 2, 2000, Q’uo spoke of the nature of the vibration of Love:

Though the practice of revering the life of the one known as Jesus is usually short lived, we find that the focus, even for a brief time, upon this entity’s center or central message of Love is most helpful to the entire planet, for as Love becomes the focus for more and more of your people so does this vibration of Love move in an harmonic manner around and throughout the planet itself. Thus, we rejoice with you at the birth of this entity in each heart that makes room for Him, and we remind each that this pilgrimage to the heart is a journey that each can take at any moment. We thank each for making this journey. It is our privilege to walk with you upon it, for we also make the same journey.

One by one, my friends, those things which you call problems are solved by the application of divine Love shedding Light, shedding truth, shedding enablement on the so-called immobile lifespan. We are now free in spirit as a people. What we wish to do is our work of service. We have no need mentally or physically or emotionally; then our needs must become spiritual. And we find that we can only satisfy the spiritual desire for increased understanding by service to others. For this we must look outward, my friends, if you wish to use that expression. Outward across the voids between civilizations until we find one such as yours that is crying out at this time for the knowledge which we have to share. And so, we are here.

We are aware, my friends, that in your daily lives you cannot see clearly that Love is in everything. And without that truth the problem of finding [inaudible], of knowing friends in everyone, or finding enough supply of those things which are needed for physical existence, of finding mental stimulation which is satisfying, of finding that emotional stability which among your peoples is called happiness—all of these things, my friends, are anything but easy. But you see, my friends, you are not without a clear understanding of Love. It is as though you were in a deep, underground prison to which you have the key, my friends. Your body is the prison. It is a dense, chemical [inaudible] which carries your spirit about. It is extremely useful, for in it you experience emotions and situations which act as a catalyst in order that the understanding of your basic spiritual self may become tempered and toughened, thus producing at the end of an experience in the physical body an intense understanding of Love. It is as though, my friends, in our vibration we can never truly practice our understanding of Love for we see it clearly. Anyone can see in the daylight, but you my friends, are in darkness. To see the Light in the darkness is much, much more difficult.

Hatonn went on to say one by one those things which you call problems are solved by the application of divine Love shedding Light, shedding truth, shedding enablement on the lifespan, and we are now free in spirit as a people, and what we wish to do is our work of service, but we have no need mentally, physically, or emotionally so then our needs must become spiritual, and we find that we can satisfy the spiritual desire for increased understanding by service to others, thus we must look outward, so if you wish to use that expression outward across the voids between civilizations until we find one such as yours that is crying out at this time for the knowledge which we have to share, so we are here. Now Hatonn said we are aware that in your daily lives you cannot see clearly that Love is in everything, and without that truth the problem of finding friends in everyone, of finding mental stimulation which is satisfying, or finding emotional stability which among your peoples is called happiness—all of these things are anything but easy, but you are not without a clear understanding of Love, so it is as though you were in an underground prison to which you have the key, and your body is the prison, for it is a dense, chemical vehicle which carries your spirit about, so it is useful, for in it you experience emotions and situations which act as a catalyst in order that the understanding of your basic spiritual self may become tempered and toughened, thus producing at the end of an experience in the physical body an understanding of Love, and it is as though in our vibration we can never truly practice our understanding of Love, for we see it clearly, and anyone can see in the daylight, but you are in darkness, and to see the Light in the darkness is much more difficult. On June 17, 1982, Latwii spoke of how we may relate to the understanding of Love:

Indeed, it could be said that that great event which awaits each entity now upon your planet could be spoken of as that entrance into what has been called the New Age of being, of understanding of Love. For this, a great discovery of the self, is that prime moving element which has set all that you see occurring upon the stage of your world in motion. Indeed, it has been well said that all the world is a stage, and each entity upon this stage plays many parts in its time, with many exits and entrances, and yet the play is the thing. And the purpose of this play, my friends, is that you shall know yourself. For you have authored the play, and you sit in the audience; you raise the curtain, you sell the ticket; you are the critic, and you are those who know not that a play is in progress.

You, my friends, shall discover yourself in all these positions and many more, for you are the Creator, and all that is exists so that the Creator might know Itself. As your age ends there will be many events, many lives lived successfully, shall we say, so that the self is found, many deaths to be lamented in the respect that the self still remains hidden to the entity. All that shall occur will have but one purpose—that is, to aid in the revealing of the self to each entity who seeks the self.

What is the key that unlocks the prison? It is a simple key, my friends. It is the key of meditation, or as this instrument has described, the activity of inner listening. Life and Love do not come to you from us, from books, from on high. No, my friends, life and Love come to you from within. For within each of you is the spark of the Creator. It is a matter of becoming conscious or aware of that spark which is already there and then allowing that light within to shine through to the outside experience and thus illuminating it, thus granting supply where there was lack, healing where there was pain, friendship and harmony where there were enemies, disagreement, and disharmony. As you breathe in and as you breathe out, my friends, you use up this mortal life that you have taken on with courage and dedication at the outset to make use of as a time of learning and [inaudible] under adverse circumstances—under the circumstance of forgetting what you knew as a spirit. Try to remember, my friends, what you already know: that all are brothers and sisters, that love and consciousness dwell in everything, that all that is around you is alive and part of the creation which is Love.

We ask you, my friends, to have faith. Not in some dogmatic repetition, but in the basic concept that you are not here aimlessly but for a purpose. In meditation, my friends, ask that you may fulfill your purpose. You need not know to the last detail what that purpose is. You need only dedicate yourself to the intention and desire to fulfill your purpose. Spirits, my friends, have a purpose which is inevitable. And that is that they should love and share. The ideas among your people having to do with purpose are all accepted ambitions, and the ideas of greatness and dramatic accomplishment. But we say to you, my friends, that your purpose is to love and to share. The details matter not, but only the care and daily constancy of your willingness to manifest the Love of the Creator. In this, my friends, you will surely fail if you attempt to do it yourself. For we are all, when cut off from Love, unloving people, unloving beings, my friends, with very few resources. However, the Creator is an infinite and invisible flow of Love. In meditation and in conscious thought, call upon that infinite supply.

Hatonn said that the key that unlocks the prison is a simple key, and it is the key of meditation, or as Carla has described, the activity of inner listening because life and Love do not come to you from us, from books, from on high, but life and Love come to you from within, for within each of you is the spark of the Creator, and it is a matter of becoming conscious of that spark which is already there and then allowing that light within to shine through to the outside experience and illuminating it, granting supply where there was lack, healing where there was pain, friendship and harmony where there were enemies and disharmony, for as you breathe in and out you use up this mortal life that you have taken on with courage and dedication at the outset to make use of as a time of learning under adverse circumstances, under the circumstance of forgetting what you knew as a spirit, so try to remember what you already know: that we all are brothers and sisters, that Love and consciousness dwell in everything, that all that is around you is alive and part of the creation which is Love. Then Hatonn went on to say have faith, not in some dogmatic repetition, but in the basic concept that you are not here aimlessly but for a purpose, and in meditation ask that you may fulfill your purpose, and you need not know to the last detail what that purpose is, for you need only dedicate yourself to the intention and desire to fulfill your purpose because spirits have a purpose which is inevitable, and that is that they should love and share, so the ideas among your people having to do with purpose are all accepted ambitions of great accomplishment, but we say to you that your purpose is to love and to share, so the details matter not, but only the care and daily constancy of your willingness to manifest the Love of the Creator, and in this way you will fail if you attempt to do it yourself, for we are all, when cut off from Love, unloving beings, with very few resources, but the Creator is an infinite and invisible flow of Love, so in meditation and in conscious thought, call upon that infinite supply. On July 5, 1981, Hatonn said that the Love of the Creator is within us all:

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.

I will pause while Laitos speaks through one of the other instruments. I am Hatonn.

(H channeling)

I am Laitos. Greetings, my friends, in the love and the light of our infinite Creator. It is a pleasure to be with you, and I would touch with you but a short time. I am here for one purpose and that is to assist you in sensing our presence within this room. It has been a pleasure for a great period of time to be bestowed with the duties of shall we say, conditioning new instruments within this group and within other groups. And a portion of that duty is to share our Love and our energies with those who visit with us. We are among you now, and we ask that you relax. And if you can sense our presence, we ask that you please allow it to flow and do not become apprehensive. For we of the Confederation are here to love and serve people on planet Earth.

This is our sole purpose. We shall not instruct you how to live but we shall offer advice on how to build a better life during your short stay upon this planet. We of the Confederation are dedicated to our service for it sustains our being. We have found through our experience that to serve another is to indeed serve oneself. For it is spoken within your holy works, “As you sow, so shall you reap.” To give service in love to another is only to assure yourself that when you are in need it shall be given to you.

I am touching with you now and giving you my Love and the Love of all of those within the Confederation. It pleases us to see you. We ask only that you listen and take that which is of importance and use it forever, and that which you find somewhat disagreeable to your accepted train of thought we ask that you dispel that from your consciousness which you so desire. We claim not to know all that there is in the universe for, to the best of our knowledge, the universe is infinite and the experiences and the knowledge within must therefore be the same. However, we do claim to have progressed through very similar circumstances as what you experience now and offer what we feel to be the greatest degree of assistance that we can presently render to your people. We have spoken through many people upon your planet such as you are witnessing now. Many of your peoples have grown aware of us and it is pleasing to see that a few more have come to listen. And we humbly and gratefully respect your presence. It has been my pleasure to be with you. I shall now leave you. I leave you in the love and the light of our infinite Creator. I am known to you as Laitos. Adonai.

(Carla channeling)

Hatonn: I am again with this instrument. I am Hatonn, and again I greet you in love and in light. At this time, I would open the meeting to any questions that you may have of us, always keeping in mind that we are not infallible and only wish to share our thoughts with you in the simple way of brotherhood. If you have any questions, please speak forth at this time.

M: I have a question. Is the Confederation of brothers connected with a group that is based in Florida called the Mark-Age group? And if you are connected, what is the connection?

Hatonn: We are aware of the question. The light center which is in that portion of the creation on planet Earth that you call Florida is in contact with the Confederation. However, due to the individual differences which reside within that group there are other entities which are in contact with them also which are of your planet, and which have in the past given false information. This complicates the attempt of seekers such as yourself who wish to understand our message and seek understanding through this group. They offer much of our message, however, my friend, we do not give individual advice for that is an infringement on the free will of the individual.

We can only share our understanding of, as Laitos has spoken, how to live the better life, the life of Love, the life which is natural to you in a higher sense. This group has had its temptations with what some have called lower astrals in the past and has channeled false information about landing and other natural phenomena. However, it has managed to understand what was occurring and not try to justify its mistake. Due to this, this group manages to dispense, shall we say, a fair amount of our so-called cosmic sermonettes without too much distortion. What you must do in dealing with information such as Mark-Age Metacenter is learn to separate the wheat from the chaff, as this instrument would put it. See the truth in that which is given and with compassion allow the channel to make mistakes without you being emotionally disturbed by false information.

M’s question was: “I have a question. Is the Confederation of brothers connected with a group that is based in Florida called the Mark-Age group? And if you are connected, what is the connection?” Hatonn began by saying we are aware of the question, and the Light center which is in Florida is in contact with the Confederation, but due to the differences which reside within that group there are other entities which are in contact with them also which are of your planet, and which have in the past given false information, so this complicates the attempt of seekers such as yourself who wish to understand our message and seek understanding through this group, for they offer much of our message, but we do not give individual advice, for that is an infringement on the free will of the individual. Haton continued by saying we can only share our understanding of how to live a better life of Love, the life which is natural to you in a higher sense, for this group has had temptations with lower astrals in the past and has channeled false information about landing and other natural phenomena, but it has managed to understand what was occurring and not try to justify its mistake, and due to this, this group manages to dispense a fair amount of our so-called cosmic sermonettes without too much distortion, so what you must do in dealing with information such as the Mark-Age Metacenter is learn to separate the wheat from the chaff, as Carla would put it, and see the truth in that which is given, and with compassion allow the channel to make mistakes without you being emotionally disturbed by false information. On February 24, 1991, Q’uo spoke of the nature of false information from channels:

It is as a teacher, although one prone always to error, that we address the question of the importance to a channel of its knowledge of itself. Any person that experiences contact and channels it in an outward form that may be perused by others is responsible for the effect that information has upon those beings about it. Thusly, one who channels incomplete or outright false information does so in a situation that sets up for that entity an honor and responsibility to that body of teaching. Such an entity is responsible firstly for living the life promulgated by the information as being the most spiritually evolved. Further, if one is teaching, whether one can or cannot see that student which is also that colleague, one is still responsible for the results of the catalyst to others that has been offered.

Consequently, it is, while literally unnecessary, spiritually efficacious to have gained sufficient knowledge of the self to be able to be responsible stewards of the gift of channeling. It is sometimes felt, especially as many of your peoples are engaged in combat, that words, as this instrument’s old time rhyme says, “cannot hurt one,” whereas bullets and other destructive weapons can hurt one. This is indeed so. Within the relativistic illusion which you occupy, the round sphere upon which you live and abide seems to be one in which there are few true examples of the connective tissue between words and consequences. Certainly, words do not drill a hole in the body. However, metaphysically speaking, they do indeed carry a tremendous weight. Depending upon how listeners are able to have access to the information, whether a teacher is considered a spiritual teacher, an academic teacher or any other kind of teacher, the teacher’s awareness that it is expressing itself with authority may be understood. How, then, can one become responsible stewards of a gift, such as channeling?

As always, the answer lies within the self. Each of you, each of us, and indeed all of creation which is conscious of the self is imbued in a vast ocean of overlapping and various illusions, some of which are brighter than others. In order to be able to find words that are evocative of the truth, the channel is most well prepared who has deeply considered the nature of the self, for the depth of the channeling, in its most appropriate configuration, is equal to the depth of spiritual solidity within the channel.

In fact, my friends, this would apply to all of your established, so-called religions of your planet where the original manifestations of universal truth and love had become clouded by the distortions of men who with their intellect and with the help of lower inspirations have muddied the waters of the original truths. These truths are there and can be recognized. What you cannot use and do not need, discard. Do not become emotionally upset if others have an emotional need for what you consider distortion. Allow them their path to understanding while knowing that it is not your path to understanding. There are infinite numbers of beings, each with their own path, each with their own recognition of truth.

Then Hatonn said in fact this would apply to all of your religions of your planet where the original manifestations of universal truth and Love have become clouded by the distortions of people who with their intellect and with the help of lower inspirations have muddied the waters of the original truths, for these truths can be recognized, but what you cannot use discard, and do not become upset if others have an emotional need for what you consider distortion, but allow them their path to understanding while knowing that it is not your path to understanding because there are infinite numbers of beings, each with their own path, each with their own recognition of truth. On May 15, 1984, Hatonn spoke of the nature of understanding:

Let us examine this concept. Understanding, my friends, is simple. It is unitary. It is not logical. It is not intellectual. It is not necessary that you understand understanding. It is not necessary that anyone around you understand what you are understanding.

It is necessary only for you to seek the understanding of the true creation within, and this we will attempt to give you in a simple way. With the intellect and with words, my friends, we can only approximate understanding to you. And your attempts to examine it on an intellectual level can only be a type of subterfuge, camouflage, and misdirection. You must not depend upon the tools of the physical illusion in order to build for yourself your bridge to eternity, for that which is of the illusion will vanish and be no more before you are able to cross that bridge.

Let go of the preconceptions which are embedded deep in your intellectual mind. Allow yourself simply to seek, and then to have faith in the seeking. What you seek is simple. The creation is simple. There is only one understanding which we can offer you, my friends, and that is that the creation is one great Being. The creation is you; the creation is me; the creation is all that ever was and ever will be. The creation, my friends, is the Creator. As you look into the eyes of another upon your planet, you are looking at the Creator. As they look at you, my friends, they also are looking at the Creator.

Does this satisfactorily answer your question?

M: Yes, thank you.

Hatonn: Is there another question?

G: I have a question, a little along the same line. I am interested to know if there are any groups in western North Carolina who you are channeling through, and if so, would we be able to contact those groups if we moved there?

Hatonn: We are aware of your question. You must understand, my friend, that that which you need must come to you in a certain way. We cannot, shall we say, from on high, alter the course of your life, of your experience, or of your understanding. That which is needed will appear, and this is the rule of the Creation. We are aware that this is not a satisfactory answer, and we are sorry, but we cannot become temporal teachers, guiding you to our outposts of knowledge. If it is for you to continue in this phase of understanding, your group will appear. If your group does not appear in your new environment, consider, my sister, whether you are perhaps to begin such a group or whether you are to perhaps to find a totally new source of continued progress.

We declare at this time, as always, that these spoken messages are only the stimulants to begin and to continue in your own spiritual search. Do you understand my sister, why we cannot give the address and phone number of your contact?

G: Yes, I understand.

Hatonn: We are grateful for your understanding. Another question, my friends?

R: How does one recognize this group when it appears?

Hatonn: The thing which is right, feels right. This means that this individual must be in touch with his feelings and of course, as always, this goes back to a daily period, brief as it may be, of meditation. When the one known as G met with the entities who became the group which now sits in circle with us, they were strangers but there was a feeling of appropriateness, the feeling perhaps, shall we say, of rightness. And this feeling was shared by all those who were long intended to work together in this group. It was a natural and spontaneous feeling from within, as all spiritual stages occur. All the one known as G did was to act on her feelings.

First by going to a class and then by attending a meeting that she had heard about, and then attempting in sincerity and some humility to follow what was to her and still is to her a sometimes strange discipline. This takes being in touch with what feels like the right thing to do. It is a subtle feeling, that of rightness. And we can only suggest that each of you meditate and allow harmony to reign within yourself so that you may speak to yourself and know that feeling of what is right and what is appropriate. Does this answer your question, my brother?

R: [Inaudible]

Hatonn: We wish to encourage each of you for each of you has all the stimulus that you may need. As we have said before, your lifetimes are not unplanned. You may go down many, many paths, but each will be sufficient. You cannot make a totally wrong choice, for all choices are within the creation of love. But there is always an optimum choice, a choice which is really right for you, not for anyone else, my friends. From small things to large there is rightness. We ask you to meditate.

Is there another question?

[Pause]

If there are no more questions, my friends, we leave this channel although we do not leave. We are able to respond at any time you may need our presence as a comfort or as company as you go into meditation. For those of you who are not channels may find it impossible to detect our presence but if you mentally request our presence, we will be there, and you will eventually be able to feel our presence, perhaps as light or some physical sensation having to do with our joining of vibrations with yours.

We offer our presence, as we said, not to dictate but only to give the Love of all of us to you. We are not strangers, my friends, though we come from far. We are brothers and sisters no matter what star our home revolves around. There is no doubt in our hearts that we are all part of Love. It is with joy beyond telling that I leave you in that Love and that Light, my brothers and my sisters. I am called Hatonn. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning I set the sprinkler in two different locations around the fishpond for 45 minutes each time.

This afternoon I went outside and spent about an hour using my trimmer to wee in the area around the fishpond, the pet cemetery, and most of the back yard.

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

August 16

Those Born Of The Spirit

I am the spirit who comes with quiet feet, walking in perfect Love, sacrificing in perfect peace, showing perfect compassion. I greet you in the full consciousness of Love.

May the Love of Christ come upon you today as a sword and as a peace, excising from you that little self, opening the way for your true and whole creation. For those born of the Spirit, be they gathered together or scattered throughout your societies, may indeed renew the face of the Earth.

Let that consciousness be upon you that is Love, rejoicing in pain and giving up those things which the Spirit within you tells you that you no longer need.

May you lose your guilt and anger and be lit by the fire and the truth of Love and compassion, that you may go forth in activity and yet with a heart full of peace to do the work of Jesus Christ in the world today.

We leave you, encouraging you, as always, in the perfect peace 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. 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 quote comes from June 26, 1978:

(H channeling)

I am Hatonn. It is, as always, a pleasure to be with you. We wish it to be known that we will be among you this evening, and that we will touch with you and speak with you as it has been requested. Those within this group and those not in attendance associated with this group are all very special to us. Many of you have known of us and have sat with us a great number of times over spans which you call years. In this time, we have watched over your patterns of life. We have witnessed the ebbs and tides as your life flows in the stream of consciousness, and Love, and of the universe.

People on planet Earth do not understand in totality the creation in which they live. And it has often been the quest of many of the great minds upon your planet to seek out truths which would unlock doors to people upon planet Earth and assist them to understand the universe. These great minds have been inspirations to many of your people. Yet, they have only touched upon the brink of knowledge and of awareness. We, in our own right, have also only begun to touch upon that brink, for understanding this entire universe is not within our grasp at the present time. We have learned to understand many of things which still puzzle many of your people. Yet, there are those things which we have not yet understood that occur around each of us.

We of the Confederation have sought through our meditation, through our service to mankind, to fulfill a long goal which we had set for ourselves eons of time ago: that is to know and understand the Creator and the universe. It seems but yesterday that we began, and it seems that we will never end in our quest for this knowledge. Yet each step of the way we find relief, we find happiness in knowing that our understanding has grown and knowing that our Love has been multiplied. We of the Confederation share with you, above all things, our Love. But there are those among your planet who will not accept our words of intellectual understanding. Yet, we are free to send them our Love and our assistance, for as they would call upon their Creator, whatever that belief may be, they call upon us. For we have realized that we are also a portion not only of the creation but of the Creator.

When one calls, whomsoever may hear that call should serve the one in need to the best of their ability using the best of their discretion. We of the Confederation admire this group, for though you have seen your difficulties in your personal lives and within the life of the organization called Eftspan, you have grown, and we have grown by watching you, and being with you, and serving you. We wish you to understand that the day will come when you must be willing to freely offer your assistance in a much more demanding way than you do now. And in order to do this properly you must prepare yourselves by becoming the being that you desire to be: one of knowledge and wisdom, love and understanding, one of strength and integrity. All of you have desired this, and in some ways you have gained portions of your goal.

Yet, we and all of you must understand that there is never time, as you would call it, for you to neglect the attainment of goals you have set for yourself. For people upon Earth live within an atmosphere or an environment which is attuned to the premise of time. Your physical bodies are sustained for only a short period, therefore, when you neglect the seeking and the fulfillment of your chosen mission and goal, you neglect the entire essence of this short span you live upon planet Earth. You live not for frivolity or enjoyment. You live for Love and enlightenment, for the fulfillment of your role in the creation of a perfect universe. If your actions are attuned to the consciousness of the Creator, your life shall experience no difficulty, not in essence. It may appear that you do indeed have difficulties, but they are lessons. Some are difficult, others are not. Be not discouraged by your own lack of disciplines. Be not haughty about your achievements. For you are as others, all others within this universe. You are a Creator; you are a part and particle of an undividable growing and consciousness universe.

We of the Confederation share these thoughts with you and commend you for what you have achieved. We also wish to somewhat warn you that you must realize that your journey has only begun. Be more determined, allow yourself not to falter. Be not discouraged with yourself when you do.

I shall transfer this communication. I am Hatonn.

(Carla channeling)

I am with this instrument. I am Hatonn. At this time, my friends, I will open the meeting to questions. Please feel free to ask any question, for it is our great privilege to share our thoughts with you.

[Pause]

I am again with this instrument. We would then leave this instrument and allow an entity who has not previously spoken to this group to speak through this instrument. Therefore, with our hearts attuned with you and all our Love with you, we leave you in the Love that is only that of the Creator. Adonai vasu borragus.

(Carla channeling)

I am Orkan. And I speak to you this evening for the first time. It is an infinite pleasure to me, and I greet you in the love and the light of the One Who is the Creator of us all.

I am a flame. I am a flame that flickers, my friends, that glows, that grows, that is eternal. I am the flame of creation; the flame of your physical sun that warms your planet and allows your food to grow on your fertile land. I am the flame of destruction that transmutes all that there is. Yes, my friends, I am a flame. I appear as the Love in the heart of those who give. I appear, my friends, as the intelligence of those who think. I am the flame that creates beauty, whether it is the beauty of the Creator or the beauty of humankind; the beauty of your art or your music; the beauty of your architecture, of your statues, of your philosophy. I am a flame that may but flicker in the darkest of times, my friends. I am to be found by those who can recognize Love.

I am, and you are the flame, my friends, the flame of Love that burns and consumes. It is not something that you reach out to find. The total freedom, the total annihilation of fire is not something that you may use, my friends. Love can only use you. It is not a tool, my friends. You are the tool for Love. You have not chosen a gentle path. You have chosen the path that consumes those things about you which are not Love. The rate of that consumption is completely dependent upon you. When do you wish to become the flame of Love, of joy, of Light, of laughter, of freedom? It is up to you, my friends, for the flame is always there inside you, inside me.

My friends, the flame is not an answer. For as far as we know, we have no answers. We have only the process of Love. We have only the knowledge that the flame, that the Love is grace, is easiness, is strength. If you have the discipline to seek the flame in a moment, whether it be in the day or the night, in joy or sorrow, in something great or in something very small, if you have the discipline to seek it, then you become the flame. And when you have achieved this identity, this manifestation, it is not, my friends, that you become a teacher, it is only, my friends, that you become a window through which the flame can be seen.

This is the first time that Orkan has spoken to this group, and they began by identifying themselves by saying: I am a flame that glows, that grows, and that is eternal, and I am the flame of creation, the flame of your sun that warms your planet and allows your food to grow on your fertile land, and I am the flame of destruction that transmutes all that there is, so yes, I am a flame that appears as the Love in the heart of those who give, and I appear as the intelligence of those who think, for I am the flame that creates beauty, whether it is the beauty of the Creator or the beauty of humankind, the beauty of your art or your music, the beauty of your architecture, of your philosophy, and I am a flame that may but flicker in the darkest of times, but I am to be found by those who can recognize Love. Then Orkan said I am, and you are, the flame of Love that burns and consumes, but it is not something that you reach out to find, so the total freedom, the total annihilation of fire is not something that you may use because Love can only use you, but it is not a tool, for you are the tool for Love, and you have not chosen a gentle path, for you have chosen the path that consumes those things about you which are not Love, and the rate of that consumption is dependent upon you, and it is up to you as to when you wish to become the flame of Love, of joy, of Light, of laughter, of freedom, for the flame is always there inside you, inside me. Then Orkan said the flame is not an answer, for as far as we know, we have no answers, and we have only the process of Love and the knowledge that the flame of Love is grace and strength, so if you have the discipline to seek the flame in a moment, whether it be in the day or the night, in joy or sorrow, in something great or in something small, then you become the flame, and when you have achieved this identity, it is not that you become a teacher, but it is only that you become a window through which the flame can be seen. On January 30, 2010, Q’uo described the flame of Love:

In this allowing of the self to be nothing and to float as the candle flame floats above the candle, self is revealed just as the candle reveals itself in the flame. It is an indigo-ray use of the gateway of intelligent infinity to ask for the self to be revealed to the self, for the self to feel its own radiance. And that flame comes down into the passive tallow of self and kindles the flame of truth so that the self becomes a chalice, holding the flame of Love. And gently, sweetly, that flame melts away the suffering and the difficulty and frees the caught soul that it may fly free into the Love of the open heart, into the Love of the Logos.

I am Orkan. It is a great privilege to meet each of you, and I an with you. Adonai vasu. Adonai.

(Carla channeling)

I am Laitos, and I greet you each in the love and the light of the infinite Creator. I will not speak to you long, my friends, but I wish to work with each of you. If you would open yourselves to our influence, I wish to, at this time, to come into the room and work with each of you personally. If you will be patient and mentally request our presence, we will attempt to strengthen your own natural meditation. I am Laitos.

[Pause]

I am again with this instrument. It is a great privilege to use this instrument, for we have not been able to use her for some weeks. And we are very grateful for the chance to work with each of our instruments.

My friends, we ask only that you meditate; five minutes, ten minutes, however long you may. Daily meditation, my friends, it is an old story, but it does not lose its importance. Life as it is known by your people seems very normal. But we say to you, my friends, that the universe is very, very unusual. There are many, many strange things all around you. Many informative, unusual occurrences. To pick up, to understand those things that are missed by so many, it is necessary to tune the mind by meditation.

I would like to close through another channel. I am Laitos.

(H channeling)

I am Laitos. I am now with this instrument. It has also been a long time since we have spoken through this instrument. For the benefit of those who are somewhat new to the actual training of an instrument, we are utilizing a great degree of conditioning with this instrument. We are showing those interested the technique which is the least desirable. The communications which we offer which you may witness now are much more easily transmitted when the instrument allows the energy to flow, allows himself to speak the words without thought, and accepts the communication with faith.

We of the Confederation speak with your people, and we need many instruments for, what you would term, the future. We desire the development of channels to be accepted by the instruments at their own choosing. And we have chosen the previously witnessed form of conditioning because we have found it necessary for most to have this experience in order that they may be, shall we say, thoroughly convinced of the validity of the communication, for you may witness and believe in it but then attempt to doubt it either in its validity or your own. We say to you that the source of the message is, shall we say, irrelevant. We shall not ask or judge where goodness has come from. We should only accept it and use what is beneficial to you and pass the rest on into others without concern. We press nothing upon you; we bless you for your acceptance. We leave you in the love and in the light of the infinite Creator. I am Laitos. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning, I began to water the flower gardens in the back yard by setting the sprinkler in four flower gardens. Then I used the vacuum cleaner to vacuum the first floor of my home.

This afternoon a good friend of mine took me to Bachman Subaru to pick up Stanley as they found five or six problems that caused Stanley not to start last Monday when I got back from Ogallala, Nebraska. Then I ran a couple of errands with my first stop being at Paul’s Fruit Markt to buy more flowers and some food for myself. Then I stopped by Walgreen’s Drug store to pick up a couple of prescriptions, some Pepsi-Zero, and some napkins. When I got home, I completed the transplanting of the portion of the Wuthering Heights Mound, that the deer had eaten, with the flowers from Paul’s Fruit Market. Then I covered the new transplants with netting and then set the water sprinkler to water the entire mound.

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

A Turn Of The Eye

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

This instrument does not believe that we have anything new to say, for its mind has been over-busy with many things, and meditation has been interrupted by the thoughts of the day which come in this instrument’s mind.

And yet we say that to every mind, however caught up in the affairs of the day, the Holy Spirit of Jesus the Christ speaks. It is as though a simple angle of the ear, a simple turn of the eye, the seeing about a corner is all that is needed. A quiet turning inside; a small repositioning of the mind and the voice of Spirit sings once again.

For each day and for each person, in any move, in any degree of attention to the Spirit whatsoever, that great principle of Love, which is who we are in manifestation, in communication, may speak forth. That quiet voice, just out of reach, by a simple turn of mind comes into earshot and heart-shot.

May your days be merry! May they be full of busy things. We do not ask concentration upon holy things. We ask that in doing precisely what each soul wishes to do it may also wish to turn and listen to the voice of the Holy One.

We are with you in peace wherever you may go, whatever you may do, 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 Hatonn channeling for today comes from March 27, 1978:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I greet you in the love and the light of the infinite Creator. I speak to you as a representative of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator. I also speak to you as a voice from within yourself that beckons you inward; not outward, my friends, but inward. We hover high above your planet, offering what seems to be telepathic instruction from one being to others. But in effect, my friends, that is not true. We are one being—you and I and all that dwells in consciousness—and we speak to each other as an arm speaks to a leg, or as two brain cells communicate in the same entity. Those who are upon your planet speak to each other in such a way that, if you understood that you are one body of consciousness, you would understand that you are like a cancer or a disease to yourself: the entity attacking itself, the entity fearing itself, the entity destroying itself.

In your so-called orthodox medicine, it is understood that when a cancer attacks your physical vehicle, your attempt is to remove it, cut it out, and dispose of it. But, my friends, if your doctors could understand the true meaning of cancer, they would not cut it out but would, instead, reinstruct it so that it would become benign and proper. And this is what we are attempting to do to you. For you are conscious, and all of those on your planet are conscious and what you continue in hostility and fear—one to another, person to person, nation to nation—the answer, my friends, is not further violence to cut out those who are wrong. The answer, as always, is Love. Love is an atmosphere in which consciousness can be reinstructed in the original Thought.

Hatonn began by saying I speak to you as a representative of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator, and I also speak to you as a voice from within yourself that beckons you inward, and we hover high above your planet, offering what seems to be telepathic instruction from one being to others, but that is not true, for we are one being—you and I and all that dwells in consciousness—and we speak to each other as two brain cells communicate in the same entity, so that those who are upon your planet speak to each other in such a way that, if you understood that you are one body of consciousness, you would understand that you are like a disease to yourself: the entity attacking itself and destroying itself. Hatonn went on to say that in your orthodox medicine, it is understood that when a cancer attacks your physical vehicle, your attempt is to remove it, but if your doctors could understand the true meaning of cancer they would not cut it out but would, instead, reinstruct it so that it would become benign, and this is what we are attempting to do to you, for you and all of those on your planet are conscious, and when you continue in hostility and fear—one to another, person to person, nation to nation—the answer, is not further violence to cut out those who are wrong, but the answer is Love, for Love is an atmosphere in which consciousness can be reinstructed in the original Thought. On August 25, 1996, Q’uo said that the answer to all of our problems is Love:

Let us call upon the deeper reality, that structure within the self that is infinite and eternal. It is this consciousness that is not a part of space and time that chose to move into just this perverse environment, just this materialistic society, just exactly this one and no other. Why? Why feel that it is a prize to achieve an incarnation of such suffering, such distraction and confusion? Sit with this “why” and know that only one answer will suffice, and that answer is Love, for Love is the beginning and the end and all things in between. Love it was, that one great original Thought of Love, infinite Love, creative, powerful Love that bore Light. Each photon, each particle, if you will, of Light is a pure manifestation of Love and of this Light are builded all the vibrations and nexuses of energy that form the universe and all that is within it.

And into this infinitude of worlds beings of Light come, sparks of the heart of the infinite Creator—you and all of the family of humankind. Each of you unique as a snowflake. Each of you infinitely beautiful and valuable. Each of you powerful and able to serve, for you are Love. Yes, within this veil of flesh each has distorted these structures and ideas and thoughts of Love so that they do not shine like the diamond but are rough. And so, within the flesh each feels the frustration of knowing her own imperfection. And this is a treasure, this awareness of the self in its illusory form as imperfect. This treasure is so precious because within this illusion, this seeming imperfection, entities have the greatest chance of choosing to live in Love by faith alone, for there will never be any proof that there is a spiritual reality beyond that which can be seen, felt, heard, and tasted.

Within you, my friends, is the wisdom that is totally and completely aware that you are part of a being called the universe. As you look out into what you call outer space, know that within you is the true reality of which outer space is only a picture. Your consciousness, my friends, is an incredible and infinite geography, peopled with an infinity of creatures equipped with the collective wisdom of eons of experience, for, my friends, within some part of your being, some deep and, for the most part, hidden part of your being you have all knowledge, all power, all compassion. It is as they were in files in a room to which you have lost the key. Do you wish, then, to explore outer space to repair the great damage of your society, or do you indeed think of it as hopeless? Take these attitudes away from the world, my friends, and turn them in to yourself, for you yourself are the great object on which to practice your own wisdom, on which to develop your own understanding. If you can solve those slums which exist within the topography of your consciousness, the slums in your cities will begin to take care of themselves.

You say, “What can one person do?” We say to you: one person can work on one person, but that one person, my friends, is a hologram of all that there is. Your consciousness is all consciousness. Work on it, and you work on your race, your planet, the vibration that speaks for Earth. We offer you our Love and our serenity and encourage you to seek those qualities in meditation. When you are upset, do not blame it upon little things which have occurred in the outer world: blame it on the lack of meditation. When you see your people in a hostile manner, don’t blame it on their actions but on a lack of meditation. Your environment does not have to have any power over you, for all that there is is within you. The environment is only a shadow compared to the power of Love within yourself. Meditation can unlock that power.

Now Hatonn said within you is the wisdom that is totally aware that you are part of a being called the universe, and as you look out into outer space, know that within you is the true reality of which outer space is only a picture, and your consciousness is an infinite geography, peopled with an infinity of creatures equipped with the collective wisdom of eons of experience, for within some deep and hidden part of your being you have all knowledge, power, and compassion, so it is as they were in files in a room to which you have lost the key, and: “Do you wish to explore outer space to repair the damage of your society, or do you think of it as hopeless?” So Hatonn said to take these attitudes away from the world, and turn them in to yourself, for you are the great object on which to practice your wisdom, on which to develop your understanding, for if you can solve those slums which exist within the topography of your consciousness, the slums in your cities will begin to take care of themselves. Then Hatonn said one person can work on one person, but that one person is a hologram of all that there is since your consciousness is all consciousness, so work on it, and you work on your race, your planet, the vibration that speaks for Earth, and we offer you our Love and our serenity and encourage you to seek those qualities in meditation, but when you are upset, do not blame it upon things which have occurred in the outer world, but blame it on the lack of meditation, and when you see your people in a hostile manner, don’t blame it on their actions but on a lack of meditation, for your environment does not have to have any power over you, for all that there is is within you, so the environment is only a shadow compared to the power of Love within you, and meditation can unlock that power. On June 3, 1984, Laitos said that our consciousness is the One Creator:

We join you in the praise and in the thanksgiving which we find in each heart even through the difficulties which face many. Seek that Love and Light always, my friends, for it is the heart of your being and the heart of each moment through which you pass, and if you can but keep a glimmer within your consciousness, you will have a guidepost which shall not fail you, even though the world about you may seem to crumble into tears, into dust, and into confusion. All that shall pass away for it is but illusion, yet the Love and Light of the one Creator shall never leave you, for you are It.

I would like to transfer at this time to the one known as B. I am Hatonn.

I am Hatonn. I am now with this instrument. My friends, we speak to you of, shall we say, improving your inner being. For, my friends, we realize that it is much easier spoken than done. So, we offer you, my friends, very few suggestions. My friends, it is very important that you realize and understand the energy which surrounds you all. Now, my friends, you gain, shall we say, a positive energy. You are, shall we say, engulfed in a great field of energy. My friends, this field may be increased through much practice. That is to say, my friends, that the harder you try, the wider your skills will become.

Now, my friends, think good of all. It is very easy to assume an opinion of another being. My friends, you are not truly aware of the ordeals of growth which are being experienced. My friends, through the help of others you are, indeed, helping yourself. And, my friends, we find it easy to… a growth that may take to [inaudible] a greater portion of the day. But, my friends, it is important that we experience this energy in all that we say and do, without even thinking. My friends, as you well know, we are always available for, shall we say, support. Feel free to call upon our energy at any time; for, my friends, we truly are one.

I will leave you now. And, my friends, as we said, for as long as you try in meditation you will feel this energy [inaudible], for, my friends, it is our gift to you. We wish only to share with you. And, my friends, we wish this experience to be that of yours.

I leave you now. I leave you in the love and light of our infinite Creator. I am Hatonn.

I am Oxal. I greet you in the love and the light of the infinite Creator. I am very grateful and privileged to speak with you. I wish only to say that we of Oxal take a continuing interest in your group and send you our Light at all times. Remember, my friends, you are the Light of the world, as are all those who have consciousness of what you would call Christ, or Creator, or Love. Call it what you will; there is no difference. It is a feeling we are a magnetism of Love that permeates those who seek it. Take confidence, and forgive all those mistakes you may make. Each day try again, and each day you will gain. Each day is a fork in the road. Keep your eyes open, my friends. One road is lighter than the rest. Yet, whatever road you are on, you are the Light.

I leave you in that love and that light. Adonai vasu borragus. I am Oxal.

This morning, I went outside and began draining the fishpond, and while it was drainin,g I cleaned the filters. Then I began fertilizing the water lilies, and when I was half done, I looked down into the pond and saw two tiny fish about an inch long which I have not seen for at least ten years. It is so good to know that the fish are reproducing because it means that they are all healthy. After the pond was full of water, I threw some Aquasafe into the water to neutralize the chlorine. Then I put the netting, extension cords, and stones that hold the netting back in place.

This afternoon a good friend took me on an errand run, and the first stop was at Feeder’s Supply where I bought some bird seed and some fish food. Our second stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some Portulaca and Vinca plus some food for myself. The third stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I dropped off two prescriptions to be refilled and bought some Pepsi-Zero and some zip lock bags. When I got home, I transplanted the flowers on the left half of the top of the Ruins Mound where the deer had eaten the Zinnias and Begonias.

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

August 14

The Generous Giver

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

The Spirit is a Spirit of hospitality. To each soul is given the personality, the character, the good points and the bad. And within each soul the Spirit exhorts and encourages the free and joyful sharing of the personality.

For it is not in the saving and fastidious choosing of those to whom to reflect the Spirit that the Spirit’s fruits are multiplied but, rather, it is to the generous giver that more and more supply of those things of which the personality is steward may be given.

Fear not the opening of the self to others this day, the sharing of laughter and conversation, but pour out generously the Love that is within you and you shall find that the Spirit has replenished that supply manyfold.

We leave you in infinite 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.
