The Camelot Journal

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the L/Leema channeling comes from March 8, 1987:

“L/Leema: For we wish to speak this evening of a kind of gem which is not found under the earth, the kind of star which is not found in heaven, a one-of-a-kind item which cannot be purchased. Indeed, we speak of the most beautiful and rare, indeed, unique, of all treasures—the treasure that knows it is a treasure—the self-conscious seeking entity.”

(Carla channeling)

I am L/Leema, and I greet you in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. It is a blessing and a privilege to be speaking with you this evening, and our hearts are full with the joy of sharing this occasion with you. We wish especially to introduce ourselves to the one known as B. We find this entity quite sensitive to us, and we bless and greet this entity with appreciation and Love, as we greet all whom we have had the privilege of meeting within this circle of seekers.

We find ourselves able to proceed in quite a leisurely manner, due to this instrument’s recent training with channeling, and we would thank the instrument for continuing to work upon the clearing of the mind. It is not remarkable or amazing that the mind is so cluttered among your people, or that so much unnecessary attention is placed upon unspontaneous creation of sense, for the spontaneously created meanings, symbols, and manifestations are those which carry the most life and vigor; those long-pondered, becoming increasingly artificial in feeling. Thus, the most helpful channeling is usually done in a clear manner with the channel not analyzing. This is to be noted, for we could not speak this evening through this channel in the way which we shall were the instrument attempting to predict our paragraphs.

For we wish to speak this evening of a kind of gem which is not found under the earth, the kind of star, which is not found in heaven, a one-of-a-kind item which cannot be purchased. Indeed, we speak of the most beautiful and rare, indeed, unique, of all treasures—the treasure that knows it is a treasure—the self-conscious seeking entity. All things are treasures to the Creator, for all things are of the Creator, thus the Creator is in all things, yet there is one kind of created thing which is conscious of itself. The jewel-like quality of self-consciousness is not immediately apparent when viewing the crowded and cluttered lives of the jewels that live about you and the one which lives within your frame, thinking your thoughts. Indeed, although one can easily see the theory of humanity’s divinity, it is designed to be quite impossible to perceive divinity in a steady state within most of the living jewels upon your sphere.

The crowding and cluttering of the mind has been placed there so that the self-conscious seeking entity will find itself to be alone. This is, of course, the deepest of the illusions of your planetary sphere, and it is work not only of eyes but of all senses of the physical vehicle. The senses of the physical vehicle are designed to convince one of an illusion, to see certain things and assume that unseen things are not real, to feel certain things, and assume that there is no other feeling, and so forth. Thus, separation, the illusion of separation, is designed into the structure and function of your physical vehicle. Also designed into your physical vehicle are senses which allow you to see that which is unseen, remember that which has not happened, feel that which is impossible to feel, and so forth. However, in most of the entities among your people, these senses are not activated. You will find if you gaze about the younger population of your planet, that more and more entities are being influenced heavily by the new vibrations of your increasingly strong fourth density and are beginning to be able to have access to the finer senses and the manifestations of ability in those senses. There is, therefore, much more connective work being done among your people’s work in channeling, work in healing, and work in attempting to become more oriented towards living the life in a conscious manner.

In this session L/Leema discusses the nature of the self-conscious seeker of truth. They began by saying we wish to speak of a kind of gem which is not found under the earth, the kind of star, which is not found in heaven, and we speak of the most beautiful and unique of all treasures that knows it is a treasure, the self-conscious seeking entity, for all things are treasures to the Creator, and the Creator is in all things, yet there is one kind of created thing which is conscious of itself, but the jewel-like quality of self-consciousness is not apparent when viewing the crowded lives of the jewels that live about you, and the one which lives within your frame, thinking your thoughts, so although one can see the theory of humanity’s divinity, it is designed to be impossible to perceive divinity in a steady state within most of the living jewels upon your sphere. L/Leema went on to say the crowding of the mind has been placed there so that the self-conscious seeking entity will find itself to be alone because this is the deepest of the illusions of your planetary sphere, and it is work not only of eyes but of all senses of the physical vehicle which are designed to convince one of an illusion, to feel certain things and assume that there is no other feeling, so the illusion of separation is designed into the function of your physical vehicle, yet also designed into your physical vehicle are senses which allow you to see that which is unseen, remember that which has not happened, feel that which is impossible to feel, but in most of your people these senses are not activated, so you will find, if you gaze about the younger population of your planet, that more entities are being influenced by the new vibrations of your fourth density and are beginning to be able to have access to the finer senses and the manifestations of ability in those senses, so there is more connective work being done among your people’s work in channeling, in healing, and work in attempting to become more oriented towards living the life in a conscious manner. On February 4, 1990, Q’uo spoke about how conscious seekers of truth do not have to feel alone:

Once a seeking entity who wishes to enable those of the Earth sphere to become more conscious of the Light has realized that they are all one, that they are interwoven and cannot be otherwise, then one need never feel alone or solitary again, for in one’s seeking, in one’s doubting, in one’s searching and in one’s suffering, the spiritual journey is played out again, and again, and again with those who are as you, heirs of the everlasting.

Now, as you turn outwards to the world before you, gaze upon its city streets, its country fields, its great expanses of water, and the beautiful harmonies and colors of the second-density illusion, gaze upon the grief, the sadness, and the woe that is contained in the heart of each. Gaze further and see the merriment, the joy, the childlike quality that lies sometimes buried very deeply within each entity and know that you are one among many. You simply remembered that which you came to do. The greatest aid that one pilgrim may be to another is to share the insights of the practical spiritual journey, to share the pebbles in the shoes of spiritual experience caught in the mundane world.

You are not in this mundane world to seek a way out of it. You have chosen to be in this mundane world not to help each other, but to reach out to those who call to you, that is, to the Creator, the I AM within you, that you may serve, humbly, and without wisdom, but only compassion. We ask that none of you attempt to be wise, for wisdom within the density which you now enjoy is a snare, a trap set for the unwary by those who wish to put out the great Light of compassion and Love. In compassion there is often not understanding; there is always the accepting.

Why have you worked so very diligently and carefully to place yourselves in solitude? This is a question to ponder again and again, for the treasures which come from the exploration of this series of thoughts makes always for a strong meditation. We shall give some ideas which we have come to perceive upon the subject and offer them to you, knowing that you are aware, but wishing to remind you that we do not have an access to ultimate truths, and are sharing our humble opinion with you for your discrimination. We ask you to use this discrimination. The greatest use of living in perceived solitude is the extreme artificial emphasis placed upon apparent relationships with other entities. For the third-density seeking entity, the importance in experience tends to lie in perceived relationships and the manifestation and continuation of those relationships, especially those which are the more intimate. If each entity were secure in knowing that all entities are truly one, and that all are children of the Creator, the need to work upon perceived biases would be very much foreshortened, and there would not be the great activation placed by nature to improve, harmonize, equalize and coordinate two or more lives which are intertwined.

If two entities are quite sure that they are undeniably one, there is not the need to take care with the words or actions, to take the thought with personal motivation and moral significance of whims, wants, and desires. Further, being perceived by the self as a solitary entity makes it very difficult to assume a relationship with the perfect, the divine, the eternal and the invisible. Yet, within the mind is placed an ever-onward driving urge and instinctive desire to climb the upward-spiraling line of Light to the Infinite. Thus, you have arranged with creation to be incarnated into an environment in which that which you most desire to know is unknowable; that which is most deeply important to you is not to be had. You have placed yourself in an environment of perceived spiritual hunger. You have intended that this hunger will move you forward always, seeking the highest and the best of questions, gazing into the face of mystery without blinking at the shadows which hide all things. You have arranged to perceive yourself as known and the Creator as unknown, not to perceive yourself as unknown or the Creator as known. Most of all, you have hidden from yourselves the perception of yourself as divine, whole, graceful, and godly. This is due to the fact that you cannot perceive with any outer sense any of the attributes of divinity.

L/Leema went on to say: “Why have you worked so very diligently and carefully to place yourselves in solitude?” So L/Leema said this is a question to ponder for the treasures which come from the exploration of this series of thoughts makes a strong meditation, so we shall give some ideas which we have come to perceive upon the subject and offer them to you, knowing that you are aware, but wishing to remind you that we do not have access to ultimate truths and are sharing our opinion with you for your discrimination, and we ask you to use this discrimination, for the purpose of living in solitude is the artificial emphasis placed upon relationships with other entities, for the third-density seeking entity, the importance in experience tends to lie in relationships and the continuation of those relationships, especially those which are the more intimate, yet if each entity were secure in knowing that all entities are one, and that all are children of the Creator, the need to work upon biases would shortened, and there would not be the activation placed by nature to harmonize two or more lives which are intertwined. On May 12, 1985, Latwii described the nature of a spiritual relationship:

Each entity as it incarnates has those souls with whom it has traveled many journeys through many of what you call incarnational lifetimes. Each entity then will make agreements with a variety of others, and these agreements will allow certain relationships to develop certain characteristics to be expressed, certain lessons to be learned and certain services to be offered. Therefore, the relationships between entities upon your planet at this time are many and varied, infinite in variety and full of the opportunity for sharing the Love and Light of the one Creator.

Why has so much been hidden from you by yourself? Why has the Creator been moved afar off? Why have you armored yourself so thoroughly against a true and lasting understanding? We may say glibly that you have done these things to prevent yourself from assuming intellectually based divinity, for as the third-density entity seeks Love, it has not yet refined its grasp of compassion’s great responsibility, a responsibility that equals the joy of actual perception of Love. Let us say that you are a gardener, and you plant and you sow, you till and harvest, and as you reap, you rejoice in the unconscious rhythm and sure deft bloom of each plant. Much, indeed, almost all of your work has been done by rote and without true understanding. Yet, by cooperating with the Creator, you are able to perceive that which is deeper than the physical manifestation of bloom, for you have touched the earth, the plant, the beauty, and the essence of each plant, touched the creation itself in its divinity. And as the creation, except for you, is not self-conscious, it laughs not at you, nor does it make fun. It feeds you with Love, and it touches you as you touch it, and it blesses you with all of its consciousness, for it does not believe itself to be alone.

There is, in the relationship with the Creator, a dependency, a perceived dependency which angers, or at best, irritates most third-density entities, unable because of perceived solitude to see that you and the Creator are one, that there is no difference in identity between yourself and the divine, but only a difference in the degree of blindness of all the inner senses which may be available to you but open and viable to the Creator within. For if the Creator is far away, yet is the Creator also near, far nearer than your breath or your bones, far more able to speak than your own limited self, equipped with a far wider and wiser grasp of actual priorities, advantages, disadvantages and right action.

L/Leema continued by saying: “Why has so much been hidden from you by yourself? Why has the Creator been moved afar off? Why have you armored yourself so thoroughly against a true and lasting understanding?” Then L/Leema said we may say that you have done these things to prevent yourself from assuming an intellectually based divinity, for as the third-density entity seeks Love, it has not yet refined its grasp of compassion’s responsibility that equals the joy of the perception of Love, and you are a gardener, and you plant and harvest, and you rejoice in the unconscious rhythm and bloom of each plant, so almost all of your work has been done by memory and without understanding, yet by cooperating with the Creator, you are able to perceive that which is deeper than the physical manifestation of bloom, for you have touched the earth, the essence of each plant, touched the creation itself in its divinity, and as the creation, except for you, is not self-conscious, it laughs not at you, but it feeds you with Love, and it blesses you with all of its consciousness, for it does not believe itself to be alone. Then L/Leema said there is, in the relationship with the Creator, a dependency that irritates most third-density entities, unable because of perceived solitude to see there is no difference in identity between yourself and the Creator but only a difference in the degree of blindness of all the inner senses which may be available to you but open to the Creator within, for if the Creator is far away, yet is the Creator also nearer than your breath or your bones, more able to speak than your limited self, equipped with a wiser grasp of priorities and right action. On July 5, 1981, Hatonn described the Creator within us:

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.

Given the needto make an important decision, as indeed all moral decisions are, one would seek the advice of the wisest friends before deciding what should be done by the self. Yet, when one is faced with the need to seek the will of the Creator, the need is perceived as an enslaving and limiting one. Yet this perceived clash between personalities is an illusion. The choice—since each seeker is truly divine, in potentiation, and to a large degree in physical activation—the actual decision is whether to operate with most information removed from the process of decision, or to operate with as much information as possible, even though the conscious solitary self is usually not very aware of these facts in any conscious manner, after seeking guidance from the higher self, angelic entities, guides, what this instrument calls the Holy Spirit, or the Creator in whatever form you may understand it.

We ask you to experiment with breaking the chains of your solitude. It is a fool’s work, and the world will tell you so, as will your own sense of perceived freedom. Yet, as each entity is a seamless portion of an infinite creation, is it not better, upon the pilgrim’s path, to take each step with a feeling, a hope and intention of being one with the Creator, whether the way be difficult or smooth? Yet, the greatest degree of freedom upon the path is not in the avoidance of the stones alone, but rather in some instinctive understanding which comes from a sense of where one is proceeding, whither one is going. For if the way is rough, yet it is known in some deep part of the unconscious soul that it is necessary to move this way to avoid deeper and rougher roads. If it is known that this is the way which must be gone to reach the end of the next adventure, to reach the next oasis of consciousness, then shall not all useless delay be stopped, and all energies be placed efficiently in the going?

Now L/Leema said given the need to make an important decision one would seek the advice of the wisest friends before deciding what should be done by the self, yet when one is faced with the need to seek the will of the Creator, the need is perceived as a limiting one, yet this clash between personalities is an illusion, and the choice—since each seeker is divine in potentiation and in physical activation—is whether to operate with most information removed from the process of decision, or to operate with as much information as possible even though the conscious self is not aware of these facts after seeking guidance from the higher self, angelic entities, guides, the Holy Spirit, or the Creator in whatever form you may understand it. L/Leema continued by saying we ask you to experiment with breaking the chains of your solitude which is a fool’s work, and the world will tell you so, as will your own sense of perceived freedom, yet as each entity is a portion of an infinite creation: “Is it not better, upon the pilgrim’s path, to take each step with a hope and intention of being one with the Creator, whether the way be difficult or smooth?” Then L/Leema said the greatest degree of freedom upon the path is not in the avoidance of the stones alone but in some instinctive understanding which comes from a sense of where one is proceeding, for if the way is rough it is known in some deep part of the unconscious soul that it is necessary to move this way to avoid deeper and rougher roads, but if it is known that this is the way which must be gone to reach the end of the next oasis of consciousness, then shall not all useless delay be stopped, and all energies be placed efficiently in the going? On April 14, 2007, Q’uo said that we are one with the Creator:

In order to change your reality, you must believe that you are capable of doing so. You must believe in the power of your own choices. As you polarize, choice by choice by choice, we ask you to look for the Light that is given to you. Seek out the wisdom that is available. Dig deeply within yourself to discover the heart of compassion that lies within you, inviolate and untouched by any human error.

For you are one with the Creator. And that goodness and Love which is the very nature of creation is at the heart of every cell of your body and every atom of each cell. Your very nature vibrates with the infinite Love and Light of the one Creator, and you are a Creator in your own right, not greater than any other Creator but able to choose your reality and to see it into manifestation.

Why were you born in a body which tells you you are alone? Where shall this question take you? We hope it takes you deep into mystery, deep into some attempt to grasp the relationship betwixt yourself and others and yourself and the divine within you, and most of all, yourself and the Creator, for if you interpret the illusion through the eyes of the Creator, you shall see a kingdom unavailable to those who see only with the eyes of the world. For all who are solitary, are sad, and they see all of the darkness as if it should never lighten, all the despair as if it should never fade, all doubt as if it shall never stop. Why do you feel solitary in such a crowded universe? Why do you feel lack and limitation when there is naught but Love? Beings of Light, we rejoice upon the path with you, and are most, most happy to be speaking with you.

Then L/Leema said: “Why were you born in a body which tells you you are alone? Where shall this question take you?” L/Leema said we hope it takes you deep into mystery and into some attempt to grasp the relationship betwixt yourself and others and yourself and the Creator within you, for if you interpret the illusion through the eyes of the Creator, you shall see a kingdom unavailable to those who see only with the eyes of the world, for all who are solitary, are sad, and they see all the despair as if it should never fade and all doubt as if it shall never stop, so: “Why do you feel solitary in such a crowded universe? Why do you feel lack and limitation when there is naught but Love?” Then L/Leema said beings of Light, we rejoice upon the path with you, and we are happy to be speaking with you. On July 12, 1981, Hatonn shared experiences see through the eyes of the world:

Thus, my friends, many, many values which are subjectively clear to you seem ineffectual or even perverted when offered freely, gladly, and lovingly to a world that does not believe that there are those who wish to Love without gain of any kind, who wish to Love without succeeding, who would be glad to fail in the eyes of the world if, through that mechanism, Love could best be channeled.

As you find the blockages in your minds and in your hearts, turn within to the original Thought, for it, my friends, is simple, unlike your paradoxical illusion with its great ideas of success and its poor ideas of failure. There is comfort in knowing that you cannot run out of spiritual food. You cannot be hungry; you cannot be thirsty; for you have only to turn within, so you can be opened to the secrets of your birthright—the fire of Love, its joy, and its power and the radiance of the whole creation as it echoes the praises of the one unity which is all of us, my friends.

It is not our forte, shall we say, to do the work which the one known as Q’uo does. Thus, it has been some time since we have been called to this group, and we are again most happy to be sharing with you. At this time, we would transfer to the one known as Jim, in order that any questions which any may have might be answered. We thank each and offer ourselves as those who would join in meditation if mentally called. We do not wish to speak with any which are meditating alone, but only to be and to share the meditation vibrations in such a way that we may perhaps deepen the meditative state. We leave this instrument now, again with thanks, and move on to the one known as Jim. I am L/Leema.

(Jim channeling)

I am L/Leema, and we greet you again through this instrument in Love and in Light. It is our privilege at this time to offer ourselves in the attempt to answer those queries which each may find of value in the personal seeking. We remind each that we give but our fallible opinions, and do not wish to place any stumbling block in the path of another. May we begin with a query?

Carla: Well, if we are divine, how come we screw up all the time?

I am L/Leema, and, my sister, we look upon the query as that which is contained within a certain point of view which is the property of the illusion through which you move, for if you had but eyes to see beyond those veils which hide your own divinity, you would discover that those times of difficulty during which you seem to miss the mark and miss it yet again, are times in which you prepare within your being the opportunity and potential for enlarging your experience not only of yourself and your illusion, but your experience of a portion of the Creator, and by so doing provide the one Creator an opportunity to gain the knowledge of your experience in a manner not possible should you not be providing the avenues of exploration that your consciousness devises.

Within your illusion, you measure yourself and your activities, and your thoughts, your responses, and every portion of your illusion that you can see and touch and about which you may contemplate, meditate and pray upon, for your illusion is one of seeming limitations, and within this illusion of limitations, the measurement of each portion is of great interest to those who inhabit your illusion, for it is the beginning effort to explore the creation about you, that has told you you have come a distance and experienced many things, and you have yet a great distance to go, a distance which knows no apparent end. And as you measure yourself against your growing concept of that which is infinity, you will find that you constantly fall short of equaling even your small concept of infinity, and, even further, your concept of the illusion in which you exist and the accepted manner of moving through the illusion that is recognized in your own philosophical and religious constructs.

Carla asked: “Well, if we are divine, how come we screw up all the time?” L/Leema replied by saying we look upon the query as that which is contained within a point of view which is the property of the illusion through which you move, for if you had eyes to see beyond those veils which hide your divinity you would discover that those times of difficulty during which you seem to miss the mark are times in which you prepare within your being the opportunity for enlarging your experience, not only of yourself and your illusion, but your experience of a portion of the Creator, and by so doing provide the one Creator an opportunity to gain the knowledge of your experience in a manner not possible should you not be providing the avenues of exploration that your consciousness creates. L/Leema went on to say within your illusion you measure yourself and every portion of your illusion that you can see and touch, and about which you may contemplate, meditate, and pray upon, for your illusion is one of limitations, and within this illusion of limitations, the measurement of each portion is of interest to those who inhabit your illusion, for it is the beginning effort to explore the creation about you that has told you that you have come a distance and experienced many things, and you have a distance which knows no end, and as you measure yourself against your growing concept of that which is infinity, you will find that you fall short of equaling your concept of infinity, and your concept of the illusion in which you exist and the accepted manner of moving through the illusion. On December 29, 1997, Q’uo described the nature of the illusion:

You are correct in your assumption that the illusion is that which is more than it appears to be, for each does appear to be separate from each other entity and from your environment itself. The unity of all things is the underlying truth in this matter. The illusion of separation exists so that each portion of the one Creator, the personalities who each of you are, may have the opportunity to explore within the one Creator’s boundless field, the opportunities for discovering Love and service for each other, though these may not seem to be the primary reasons for which each was incarnated. The illusion offers many other alternate answers for why each is here: to gather wealth, to be powerful, to do this or that great thing. All of these are but means by which each entity may find the heart of Love and unity within itself. Each uses the artifacts of the illusion to travel the spiritual journey, though all around one the material world is given ascendancy.

This is the illusion so finely created by each portion of the one Creator for the purpose of finding the one Creator’s Love and Light in each heart and also providing that one Creator within the opportunity to know Itself in ways that would not be possible were this illusion and your choices within it not creative.

Thus, to take a portion of the whole, and to look upon it with the eyes which see only dimly and for the most part rest upon the exterior appearance of things, is to guarantee that the self, which you feel that you are, shall continually fall short of that self which you intuit that you truly are or can be. This falling short and the frustration which comes from it are most valuable assets in the drawing forward of the self and the focusing of the attention so that there might be a progression of experience through which you come to know greater and greater portions of the creation and the Creator which lie all about you and within each portion of the creation.

L/L continued by saying to take a portion of the whole and to look upon it with the eyes which see dimly and rest upon the exterior appearance of things is to guarantee that the self, which you feel that you are, shall fall short of that self which you intuit that you truly are or can be, and this falling short and the frustration which comes from it are valuable assets in the drawing forward of the self and the focusing of the attention so that there might be a progression of experience through which you come to know greater portions of the creation and the Creator which lie all about you and within each portion of the creation. In 42.12, Ra spoke of the value of focusing the attention:

There is but one technique for this growing, or nurturing, of will and faith, and that is the focusing of the attention. The attention span of those you call children is considered short. The spiritual attention span of most of your people is that of the child. Thus, it is a matter of wishing to become able to collect one’s attention and hold it upon the desired programming.

This, when continued, strengthens the will. The entire activity can only occur when there exists faith that an outcome of this discipline is possible.

May we speak further, my sister?

Carla: Only on the related point, because it was in the message. I didn’t understand what the channeling meant when I got the part about the physical body being godlike in activation, mostly, or something like that. There was some aspect of the actual physical body that was divine. I just wonder what that might be?

I am L/Leema, and we feel that our response might be most direct if we suggest that the physical vehicle which provides the means of locomotion through this third-density illusion for each of its inhabitants is a conscious and intelligent portion of the same Creator that creates all experience within and beyond your illusion. Thus, the physical body is a being with a type of concept system which operates in what seems to be an independent fashion from the mind and spirit complexes, in that the physical vehicle is nourished by the constant application of direction, movement, and the qualities of fertility, shall we say, that are associated with the root or base energy center, those related to the sexual reproduction, the nourishing of the vehicle through food intake, the rest and exercise, and the preservation of the integrity of the vehicle. Thus, the physical vehicle in its own right perceives the illusion in which you find yourself at this time, and rejoices in the aliveness that propels it, and in the direction of the conscious mind which focuses this vitality. Thus, its divinity is pure in its beingness and its uninhibited expression of the life force which moves through it.

Then Carla asked: “I didn’t understand what the channeling meant when I got the part about the physical body being godlike in activation, mostly, or something like that. There was some aspect of the actual physical body that was divine. I just wonder what that might be?” L/Leema continued by saying we feel that our response might be best if we suggest that the physical vehicle which provides the means of locomotion through this third-density illusion for each of its inhabitants is an intelligent portion of the Creator that creates all experience within and beyond your illusion, so the physical body is a being with a type of concept system which operates in an independent way from the mind and spirit complexes since the physical vehicle is nourished by the constant application of direction, movement, and the qualities of fertility that are associated with the base energy center, those related to the sexual reproduction, the nourishing of the vehicle through food intake, the rest and exercise, and the preservation of the integrity of the vehicle, for the physical vehicle perceives the illusion in which you find yourself at this time and rejoices in the aliveness that propels it and in the direction of the conscious mind which focuses this vitality, and its divinity is pure in its beingness and its expression of the life force which moves through it. On September 10, 1995, Q’uo described the nature of our physical vehicle:

The energy centers of the child are already developed. The energy centers of the physical vehicle are in an inchoate state until the entity decides to come into the physical vehicle. When that melding of spirit and flesh takes place the physical body then takes on the basic energy balances of the entity taking advantage of the incarnational opportunity. As the entity settles into the physical vehicle the physical energy centers are invested with the entity’s energies which are as a complex of vibrations expressing the self and its personality. The resulting harmonies of spirit and physical vehicle create the energy centers in the configuration which the child begins the incarnation with.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: Just so that I can understand you. What you’re saying, then, is that, as instinctual animals, as second-density animals, the human animal as well as all other animals without self-consciousness, is divine. I know I’ve read a good deal about the strength of Light and the strength of the Creator being in each cell of the body, so I can accept that okay. Is that what you’re saying?

I am L/Leema, and this is the basic thrust of the information which we have attempted to share with you upon the topic of the divinity of your physical vehicles. The divinity of all creation is that which is represented in a dynamic fashion within the…

[Tape ends.]

The quote this morning from The Infinite Way is “The personal sense of “I” is busily engaged in getting, achieving, desiring, accomplishing, accumulating; whereas our real Self is giving, bestowing, sharing, and blessing. The personal sense of self is the embodiment of all human experiences, most of which are limited and undesirable: the real Self is the embodiment of infinite spiritual ideas and activities forever expressing Itself without limit or restraint.

The small “I” concerns itself primarily with its personal problems and affairs, enlarging its borders to include members of the immediate family or circle of friends. Personal sense often goes further afield into charitable works or community welfare, but we know that it is personal sense when we analyze the motives which govern. The real sense of Self lives out from the center of its being, blessing all whom it touches, and is recognized by its selflessness, by its unselfishness, by its lack of seeking recognition, reward, or any personal aggrandizement. It is not a senseless entity or a floor mop to be pushed around by mortals—it is never even seen or known by mortals.

Two beautiful illustrations come to mind revealing in tender scenes the difference between the personal self and the immortal real Self.

Siddartha, who had left His home and family in search of truth finally received enlightenment and became the Buddha, the Enlightened One or as we term it, the Christ of His day. His father, a great king, was about to die and, desiring to see his son, sent for Him, asking Him to return. When he sat face to face with his son, he realized that he had lost Him in the personal sense of father and son but tried nevertheless to reclaim Him. “I would offer thee my kingdom,” said the King, “but if I did, thou wouldst account it but as ashes.”

And Buddha said, “I know that the King’s heart is full of Love, but let the ties of Love that bind you to the son whom you lost embrace with equal kindness all your fellow beings, and you will receive in His place a greater one than Siddartha: you will receive the Enlightened One, the Teacher of Truth, the Preacher of Righteousness, and also the Peace of God into your heart.”

The other concerns the great Master, “While He talked to the people, behold, His mother and His brethren stood without, desiring to speak with Him, but He answered and said unto Him that told Him, “Who is my mother? And who are my brethren?” And He stretched forth His hands toward His disciples, and said, “Behold my mother and my brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.”

In proportion as we become spiritually illumined, we are sought out by those seeking freedom from various phases of material darkness, sickness, sin, limitation, fear, unrest, or ignorance. We are able to meet these needs only as we impersonalize both good and evil and understand that harmony is the quality and activity of Soul, universally and individually expressing itself.”

This morning I went outside and used the garden hose and sprayer to clean the filters in the skimmer to see if I could get the height of the fountain in the fishpond back to its normal height.

This afternoon I went outside and put one 7 ft. length of netting on each side of the Ruins Mound Garden to keep the deer from eating the flowers. Then I put another 7 ft. length of netting on the middle of the Ruins Mound Garden on the south side of the Ruins Mound Garden and one on the middle of the north side of the Ruins Mound Garden.

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

July 2

The Good And Bad Wood

I come in the name of Jesus the Christ—I, the spirit of the living Christ in the world today. I greet you in the inestimable and eternal Love of the Father.

When the axeman hews the tree, he treats it carefully. He sees the good wood and the bad. He sees the wood that shall make lumber and the wood that shall make kindling. He has a perspective upon this tree that he could never have had as he gazed upon it as a living being, for he has moved that living being, deadened it, and claimed it for his own use.

Only through the hands of Spirit can such sacrifice be recovered, renewed and recreated. Consider well, my children, the lesson of the tree. Use what you need. For truly this is the way of your life. But give back that which your Earth needs. Give back that which your peoples need, that the Holy Spirit, through each of you, may renew the face of the Earth. We leave you in the striving amidst peace and the peace amidst all strife.

We leave you in that peace the world knows not, now and ever.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Q’uo and Latwii channelings for this session comes from March 1, 1987:

General question concerning the story in the Bible of Adam and Eve, whether it is an actual story of people that existed, or a symbolic story supposed to show us certain principles, etc.

(Carla channeling)

I am Q’uo. Greetings in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. It is a rare privilege and blessing to be called to this seeking group of pilgrims, and we are honored that we are guests at such a banquet of love.

The one who wishes to study the creation may fruitfully study what is popularly called the archetypical mind. Indeed, we know of no better name for this informational treasure house than the mind of the archetypes. It is archetypes, rather than individuals, which the stories of creation seek to illuminate, for creation of self-consciousness begins, subjectively, after creation. The consciousness which is conscious of creation is only that of the Creator, and within the illusions which all of us enjoy there is no direct road to clear perception. It is necessary that expression be general, for the witness to creation is mute and lies within the infinite mystery of the potential intelligence of the uncreated and created Creator, whose mystery is whole, and entire, and has not and shall not be disturbed by the puny and petty ponderings of our kind. We are seekers, not finders, my friends.

And so, within us lie the deepest hunches of what you may call your races. Upon some planets, all have the same archetypical mind. Some of the confusions about creation lie in the various stories of creation, generated by the archetypical minds of those from different planetary influences. There are many such upon your particular planet. It is well, in considering the archetypical mind, to work with a system which is found instinctively by you to be evocative of the rich fruit of suggestion and inference, for each image is designed to center one within a portion of deep knowledge about one’s origin and definition, one’s way of progression and hope for the future.

The general question concerning the story in the Bible of Adam and Eve, is whether it is an actual story of people that existed, or a symbolic story supposed to show us certain principles, etc.: Q’uo began by saying the one who wishes to study the creation may study the archetypical mind, and we know of no better name for this informational treasure house than the mind of the archetypes, for it is archetypes, rather than individuals, which the stories of creation seek to illuminate, for creation of self-consciousness begins, subjectively, after creation, and the consciousness which is the conscious of creation is only that of the Creator, and within the illusions which all of us enjoy there is no direct road to clear perception, so it is necessary that expression be general, for the witness to creation is mute and lies within the infinite mystery of the potential intelligence of the uncreated and created Creator, whose mystery is whole and has not and shall not be disturbed by the ponderings of our kind since we are seekers, not finders. Now Q’uo said within us lie the deepest hunches of what you may call your races, and on some planets, all have the same archetypical mind, but some of the confusions about creation lie in the stories of creation, generated by the archetypical minds of those from different planetary influences, and there are many upon your planet, so it is well, in considering the archetypical mind, to work with a system which is found instinctively by you to be evocative of the rich fruit of suggestion and inference, for each image is designed to center one within a portion of deep knowledge about one’s origin and definition, one’s way of progression and hope for the future. In 92.8, Ra spoke of the nature of the archetypical mind:

We ask once again that you consider that the archetypical mind is a part of the deep mind. There are several portions to this mind. The mind may serve as a resource. To call the archetypical mind the foundation of experience is to oversimplify the activities of the mind/body/spirit complex.

Let us look at the most well-known myth within this group of entities. In this story, the first man is made greater than all the animals and able to talk to the Creator. Now, my friends, there is rich food for thought in this image, and, indeed, one of your teachers makes fruitful use of the theme in what you call the parable of the prodigal son. Each of you has an Eden, a time of untrammeled and untroubled beauty, a golden time when the body, soul, mind, and heart felt good, at home, and well. The sun was happy and even the rain hardly noticeable. And yet somehow, somewhere, through the process of all the years of incarnation, as you call them, you have left the garden—and how alone you feel! Yet, both in and out of the garden, there comes the second archetype—the helper. Each entity has within it the lonely warrior and the helper, the fount of all wisdom and solace. Your Logos has created a strongly biased sexual differentiation so that although each male and each female experience both needs, yet still to the male is given the striving for the freedom by nature; to the female, the centered feeling of untold riches of happiness, solace and peace.

Neither males nor females experience enough of freedom without an emotional bias, and neither males nor females experience most purely the joy of being of total service. Yet by the sexual choice of a chemical body at the beginning of incarnation each of you has chosen to experience the male archetype or the female archetype as regards that which is demanded by the culture. It is to be noted that only in highly cerebral cultures where education has been carried far does the idea of interchangeable roles surface, for it is not an idea which fits naturally with the genetic disposition of the third-density body which has been issued to each of you.

Q’uo went on to say let us look at the most well-known myth within this group of entities, so in this story, the first man is made greater than all the animals and able to talk to the Creator, for there is rich food for thought in this image, and one of your teachers makes fruitful use of the theme in the parable of the prodigal son, for each of you has an Eden, a golden time when the body, soul, mind, and heart felt good at home, for the sun was happy and even the rain hardly noticeable, yet somehow, somewhere, through the process of all the years of incarnation, you have left the garden and how alone you feel, but both in and out of the garden there comes the second archetype: the helper, so each entity has within it the lonely warrior and the helper, the fount of all Wisdom and solace, for our Logos has created a strongly biased sexual differentiation so that although each male and each female experiences both needs, yet to the male is given the striving for the freedom by nature; to the female, the centered feeling of untold riches of happiness and peace. Q’uo continued by saying neither males nor females experience enough freedom without an emotional bias, and neither males nor females experience most purely the joy of being of total service, yet by the sexual choice of a chemical body at the beginning of incarnation each of you has chosen to experience the male archetype or the female archetype as regards that which is demanded by the culture, and it is to be noted that only in highly cerebral cultures where education has been carried far does the idea of interchangeable roles surface, for it is not an idea which fits naturally with the genetic disposition of the third-density body which has been issued to each of you. On December 16, 2017, Q’uo described the nature of the third-density body:

The entire physical vehicle was derived from the second-density ape of your planetary environment and has been developed over millions of years to produce the fruit, shall we say, that is your third-density body at this time. One must remember, as well, that not only has the Logos chosen this type of vehicle for you to inhabit within your third density, but your own mind complex has interacted with this physical vehicle in such a fashion as to literally create it, and to imbue it or endow it with what you would call the “energy centers”, or “chakras” that allow you, in your progression of seeking through many lifetimes, to move the energy of the kundalini, shall we say, upward from the red ray, through all intermediate rays, and to move into the indigo ray energy center, which is the home of the so-called pineal gland. This gland has certain features or physical characteristics that are analogous to mental and spiritual characteristics that can signify the various stages of activation. The ability to feel the sensations of the indigo ray gland suggests, perhaps, the beginning activation of this gland, so that its spiritual qualities may begin to make themselves available for enhancement by the experience of the daily round of activities being used to enhance spiritual growth.

This is one small example of the archetypes which may be studied in the creation myth. Also of interest is the introduction, very early in the myth and with repeated emphases, of the eventual and inevitable fall, for repeatedly the archetypical male and female choose freely to disobey the Creator to whom they can talk. Each of you may feel a desire to speak directly to your Creator, but perhaps if the Creator’s face were familiar the Creator might be taken for granted. Perhaps the Creator which is a mystery is the more understandable Creator and the more to be appreciated. When the female archetype known as Eve met with the instrument which removed the couple from the garden, it was at the behest of a very important figure. It is to be noted that in the Tarot the serpent is the image of wisdom, and so it is intended in this creation myth which draws heavily upon the same cultural material. It is wisdom which can be the most effectively negative creation, for an over-abundance of Love is more difficult to twist entirely. The habit of over-stimulation of the intellect is far more likely to end in a negative movement. Yet, does not all of your experiences as a race and as individuals depend almost completely upon the presence, the enthusiasm, and the action of the serpent in your lives, those seemingly negative forces which cause one to be experiencing life outside the garden, where each day has challenges, and it is difficult to express or even feel faith and passion, hope and joy?

Yet is it not, when you look back upon those times that you see so often the greatest of progress made during those difficult times? What to praise and what to blame about the creation of the Creator? It is difficult, nay, let us say impossible, to call any portion of the creation bad, for the debt of the pilgrim to the negative population upon your planet is great. You are experiencing life both in and out of the garden. Each portion of that story is a portion of a complex series of archetypes. The study of the archetypical mind is most helpful, yet we would not encourage you to study to the extent of mental and spiritual indigestion in order to feel that you are progressing along the spiritual path.

Q’uo continued by saying this is one example of the archetypes which may be studied in the creation myth, and also of interest is the introduction, very early in the myth and with repeated emphases, of the inevitable fall, for repeatedly the archetypical male and female choose to disobey the Creator to whom they can talk, so each of you may feel a desire to speak to your Creator, but if the Creator’s face were familiar the Creator might be taken for granted, but the Creator which is a mystery is the more understandable Creator and more to be appreciated, so when the female archetype known as Eve met with the instrument which removed the couple from the garden, it was at the request of an important figure, yet it is to be noted that in the tarot the serpent is the image of Wisdom, and so it is intended in this creation myth which draws upon the same cultural material, for it is Wisdom which can be the most effectively negative creation, for an over-abundance of Love is more difficult to twist entirely, so the habit of over-stimulation of the intellect is more likely to end in a negative movement, yet does not all of your experiences as a race and as individuals depend completely upon the presence and the action of the serpent in your lives, those seemingly negative forces which cause one to be experiencing life outside the garden where each day has challenges, and it is difficult to express or even feel faith and joy? Now Q’uo asked: “Is it not, when you look back upon those times that you see so often the greatest of progress made during those difficult times? What to praise and what to blame about the creation of the Creator?” Then Q’uo said it is impossible, to call any portion of the creation bad, for the debt of the pilgrim to the negative population upon your planet is great since you are experiencing life both in and out of the garden, for each portion of that story is a portion of a complex series of archetypes, so the study of the archetypical mind is helpful, yet we would not encourage you to study to the extent of mental and spiritual indigestion in order to feel that you are progressing along the spiritual path. On January 16, 2005, Q’uo described the nature of the spiritual path:

Let us approach this question from the standpoint of a model to use to see if you, indeed, are on the spiritual path. The model of the self on the spiritual path is a model in which you are focusing upon the “I” that you are. There are many uses of the first-person singular. When you think of yourself, you don’t always think of yourself as the same self. When you are thinking of yourself as a spiritual entity on a path, who are you? Who is the “I” that speaks for you when you are on the spiritual path? How would that voice, that identity, that person be different from the “I” that speaks for you in less thoughtful roles?

Hopefully, as you begin to sense yourself as a spiritual entity, the “I” that speaks for you begins to come out of the mist of the surface “I,” the surface personality. The model that this instrument carries in her mind of the entity on the spiritual path is a model in which she is following in the steps of Jesus the Christ. She does not have a model of herself as worshipping but as following after the example of a teacher who seemed to know precisely who He was. He identified Himself as an agent of the Creator. This instrument, then, has a model of the self on the spiritual path in which she has an objective referent of who she is because she is following an entity who was of a certain personality. This entity identified Himself strictly as the Son of the Father who was about his Father’s business. And it is notable that this entity, in all of His preaching, has never been quoted as asking for worship but only as asking for being followed.

So, we would ask entities who are looking at themselves upon the spiritual path quite simply, “Who are you?” Because this is the essential center of that which draws entities to the path of seeking. They become aware that all of the wisdom that has been acquired since their cradle experiences is not enough to satisfy the craving for identity and meaning. They realize that they are going to have to set off on a journey. It is not a journey in the physical world at all, but it is very definitely a journey, and it very definitely is upon a path that is common to all seekers.

Please realize that on this path you are not gathering as much as allowing things to fall away. The deep and true tones of your identity and your right process come clearly, plangently, sometimes plaintively and sometimes triumphantly, but unmistakably, from time to time there will come a moment—this instrument loves to call them “crystalline moments”—that ping like a bell with a very clear indication of meaning and resonance, and in that moment, whatever the realization is, it is easy, it is effortless; and you realize that you have reaped the harvest that has been in process for a long time. You finally hear, and feel, and see the work that you have done, but you never know when that moment will come. Such is the progress of one upon the spiritual path.

We would at this time make note that those things which are most important to learn, to grasp, and to make a part of the life are those things which are simple and devoid of the complexity of language and ratiocination, for you seek that which is found in silence and in eternity. You seek, therefore, in a foreign language and in an alien land, yet it is your native tongue and your native home. The language of the heart shall speak for you in the kingdom you now seek. We await you there and are with you there this moment. As your consciousness points and wills and meditates itself to be, so you shall be. Be careful what you desire. Be assiduous in your meditations, and may you have our greatest thanks for asking us such an interesting question. It has been our pleasure to talk upon the subject, and we hope that we have said a few things which may spark other questions or give you food for thought. Of course, we are fallible and prone to error, as is any seeker of mystery. If there is aught said that grates, please ignore our humble words and continue seeking, serene and confident in your own judgment.

Now Q’uo said we would make note that those things which are important to learn and to make a part of the life are those things which are simple and without the complexity of language, for you seek that which is found in silence and in eternity, so you seek in a foreign language and in an alien land, yet it is your native tongue and your native home, so the language of the heart shall speak for you in the kingdom you now seek, and we await you there and are with you there this moment, yet as your consciousness wills and meditates itself to be, so you shall be, but be careful what you desire, and persevere in your meditations, and you have our thanks for asking us such an interesting question, for it has been our pleasure to talk upon the subject, and we hope that we have said a few things which may spark other questions or give you food for thought, yet we are prone to error, as is any seeker of mystery, but if there is anything said that grates, please ignore our humble words and continue seeking confident in your judgment. On November 2, 1986, Q’uo spoke of the nature of the mystery of our spiritual journey:

Doubt not that you have attained but continue to doubt that you know what you have attained, for that which you seek is truly born of mystery and will continue to attract your seeking. Only one who is either unaware that such mystery exists or is satisfied that the mystery is solved shall fail to make progress in moving closer toward the heart of that mystery. In time you will see with clearer eyes the nature of that mystery more and more clearly. Yet within your illusion at this time you must content yourself with continuing upon the journey toward mystery and accept that you do not know what you do or how to do it, but that you wish to do that which will make the mystery move within your life in the pattern that may only be described as Love.

We find that the there is a desire for one of our comrades to speak through the one known as Jim, and so at this time we shall leave the group, thanking it for the blessing it has given us in being able to share time and thought with you. We especially greet those whom we do not see each week, for to us all times are the same, and it is a great joy to see each soul with whom our vibrations have learned to dance in rhythm. We leave this instrument now, and each of you, in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are those of Q’uo. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and we are most happy and honored to greet each in Love and in Light. It has been quite a period of your time since we have been able to speak through this instrument to this group and we are very happy that we have been called this evening, and we offer ourselves at this time in the attempt to speak to those queries which you may offer to us. May we begin, my friends, with a query?

J: Would you explain the relationship between Q’uo and Latwii?

I am Latwii. I am not Q’uo. We may suggest that the relationship is that of fellow seekers. As those gathered in this domicile are each seekers of truth, sharing that seeking and sharing the path, so we share with those of Q’uo and with many others as well the seeking for truth in the vibrational frequency of Wisdom or Light. We are similar to those of Q’uo in that we are what you have learned to call a social memory complex, that is, a grouping of mind/body/spirit complexes which seeks as one being the nature of truth.

May we speak further, my brother?

J: I understand what you just said. Normally in our sessions, the question-and-answer session is also handled by the same entity that is channeled during the session. Can you explain why Latwii has decided to come through for this particular question and answer session?

I am Latwii, and we are happy to speak to that point, my brother. As we cast our thoughts back in your time, we find that there was a time during which we also spoke in the capacity of those of Q’uo in giving the opening message and followed that service with the honor of attempting to speak to queries. This service has largely of late been offered by those of Q’uo, for this group has in its progression of experience attracted to it this group of entities now known to you as Q’uo which is able to speak to the concerns of this group in a fashion which is more closely aligned with the group’s seeking.

We have been called this evening to offer our services in the answering of queries by a member of your group which remembers us in, shall we say, our heyday when we spoke as the primary contact of this group, and we are honored to once again be invited to this group, for it has always been our joy to offer our services to this group, for this group has been able in most instances to grasp the ridiculous nature of our sense of humor when we have been able to express it through the rigid confines of this instrument’s mind.

May we speak further, my brother?

J: No, thank you, that cleared that up. To get back to tonight’s session, I would like to ask a question about the archetypical mind of… Let me regress just a minute. It was stated that wisdom, being the archetype of the serpent, was responsible basically for the ousting from the garden of Eden. Am I to understand from that our overindulgence in intellectual pursuits, rather than pursuits of the heart, does that lead to our ousting from the garden of Eden even today? Does that make sense?

I am Latwii, and we feel that we have the gist of your query in our grasp, and we shall respond with that supposition in mind. Please query further if we are mistaken. The concepts, as we have listened to them being shared this evening, concerning the wisdom and the movement of the archetypical energies of the male and female principles out of the unity that was prevalent within the garden of Eden, as it is called, are a force; that is, Wisdom, which allows for the gaining of experience by those portions of the Creator which comprise Its creation. This movement into experience is that which entities seem to experience from the state of grace, harmony, and unity which is the nature of the garden of Eden in which all is provided without the need for seeking, or striving, or experiencing of any kind. Yet, it is the purpose of the creation to provide the Creator means by which It might know Itself in ways not available without the creation and without movement from the unity occurring within the creation by those who populate the creation.

Thus, those principles represented by Adam and Eve, the male and the female principles, present in each entity, are provided the necessity as well as the opportunity of gaining experience in order that the consciousness which they represent might become individualized to the extent that greater and greater experience is gained and greater and greater distortion, shall we say, or movement from unity results, thereby creating the need or the antithetical movement to again rejoin the unity of all creation, bringing with this movement back toward unity all experience that is gained in the movement from unity, thereby glorifying the Creator by the bringing of the harvest of experience home, shall we say.

J asked: “It was stated that wisdom, being the archetype of the serpent, was responsible basically for the ousting from the garden of Eden. Am I to understand from that our overindulgence in intellectual pursuits, rather than pursuits of the heart, does that lead to our ousting from the garden of Eden even today? Does that make sense?” Latwii began by saying we shall respond with that supposition in mind, so query further if we are mistaken, for the concepts concerning the Wisdom and the movement of the archetypical energies of the male and female principles out of the unity that was prevalent within the garden of Eden are a force that is Wisdom which allows for the gaining of experience by those portions of the Creator which comprise Its creation, and this movement into experience is that which entities seem to experience from the state of grace, harmony, and unity which is the nature of the garden of Eden in which all is provided without the need for seeking or experiencing of any kind, yet it is the purpose of the creation to provide the Creator means by which It might know Itself in ways not available without the creation and without movement from the unity occurring within the creation by those who populate the creation. Latwii went on to say those principles represented by Adam and Eve, the male and the female principles, present in each entity, are provided the necessity as well as the opportunity of gaining experience in order that the consciousness which they represent might become individualized to the extent that greater experience is gained and greater movement from unity results, thereby creating the need to again rejoin the unity of all creation, bringing with this movement back toward the unity of all experience that is gained in the movement from unity, thereby glorifying the Creator by the bringing of the harvest of experience home. On March 11, 1990, Q’uo described how Mary glorified the Creator:

Yet this entity, though young and pure and naive, was a woman of timeless and ageless faith, and her reaction was the reaction of those who have the ultimate bravery of acting idealistically in the face of the impossibility of the ideal. She accepted at once the authority of this vision, and rather than pulling away from the situation in which she would be a shame to her future husband, she threw all caution to the winds, and glorified the one infinite Creator that she might be part of this beautiful story, part of the great promise that had been made to her people, the promise of “him who comes in the name of the Lord.”

How could she believe? How could she find a living faith in such an unusual and bizarre occurrence as this visitation? Such was the power of her faith that she accepted the Creator first and all else after. And so, she leapt into a situation which seemed doomed, glorifying the Creator and speaking most eloquently of all those things which seem to be plenteousness, but are in fact rewarded with little, and examining those things which seem to be full of poverty and lack, and exclaiming upon their riches.

Such was the entity, Mary, and so luminous was she with her faith, so alive with her vision, that the one to whom she was vowed could not disavow her, but claimed her and the babe she carried as his own. It is a dramatic and telling tale of a living faith in the midst of a world in which faith seems impossible.

When Jesus the Christ moved back to the Source, to the Creator, this entity left a feminine and nurturing spirit available to all each day, everywhere and always. This entity is often called the Holy Spirit, and within other belief systems which are more comfortable to those of this generation they are now known as guides and masters. This is acceptable, as long as it is realized that these entities are part of a living faith in a living Creator. However, the one known as Jesus could not return in person, in visions to simple folk, for this entity released the Christ of Itself into the Holy Spirit, into that Comforter which is different for each and every one, and which is invisible and only to be discovered and trusted through a process of living faith.

However, the one known as Mary retained a most blessed part in the story of redemption that has seized the imaginations, the hearts, the minds, the souls, and the loyalties of so many, through so many generations. This entity is a living feminine principle. The one known as Jesus the Christ was dealing from a position in which women are not even allowed in the same place to worship as the men, where women were not regarded as the gift that they are, for are not all men and women gifts one to another?

Thus, Mary remained most, most important to those who sought the nurturing side of what had been heretofore a masculine, harsh and judgmental concept of the one infinite Creator. It is of course true that Love may sometimes be harsh, that its lessons may seem capricious. However, it is also true that the one infinite Creator is infinitely nurturing, infinitely a female energy also, and this energy, within the culture in which you now enjoy existence, has been personified by many as the one known as Mary.

It is to the nurturer that men and women alike turn, because they do not wish to face the stern face of the Creator, of judgment, which has come through centuries of misconception, without regard to the change in societal and cultural biases. Stubbornly, entities cling to a masculine side of the Creator, the generative and destructive side of the infinite One, at the expense of the realization of the everlasting tenderness, gentleness and caringness of this same Creator.

Thus, Mary is recognized by the one known as Jesus in the deeply moving story of His death, while of all of His family, His brothers, His sisters, His relatives, His disciples, His friends, He picked one person to be sure was cared for, and that was Mary. He gave His own precious mother, not just to a disciple, but to the world. It is important to see the universality of this act, just as it is important to see the feminine side of the Creator, forgiving upon the cross one who had sinned admittedly, and was told simply, “This day you shall be with me in paradise.” Both of these elements of this great and archetypical story are meant to indicate the infinite and nurturing nature of the Living Creator.

The tendency of the quality of wisdom to individualize itself in consciousness is a tendency which can be intensified to the extent that an entity may so separate itself from all about it that it travels its journey of seeking upon the path that you might call the negative path, or that which separates self from all other self. The compassion or Love which the entities knew within the garden of Eden, and which seems removed from them as they journey from that garden, are forces which are most easily aligned with that quality that you might call the positive path or the radiant path. These qualities of Wisdom and Love are the representations of the nature of the Creator in creation, that any entity might choose as the path upon which it shall journey back into unity with all the creation and the one Creator.

Latwii went on to say the tendency of the quality of wisdom to individualize itself in consciousness is a tendency which can be intensified to the extent that an entity may so separate itself from all about it that it travels its journey of seeking upon the path that you might call the negative path, or that which separates self from all other self, for the Love which the entities knew within the garden of Eden, and which seems removed from them as they journey from that garden, are forces which are easily aligned with that quality of the positive path, so these qualities of Wisdom and Love are the representations of the nature of the Creator in creation, that any entity might choose as the path upon which it shall journey back into unity with all the creation and the one Creator. On February 22, 2020, Q’uo spoke of our journey ack into unity with the one Creator:

It can be said, however, that in the ultimate sense, one cannot choose not to go back into unity with the One Creator. For eventually all entities will find the path back into unity with the One Infinite Creator, which each entity is within itself, for all is made of the One Infinite Creator. However, this is somewhat more of a semantic problem than an actual problem, for each entity has created its own evolutionary journey within the certain guidelines set forth by the One Infinite Creator.

May we speak further, my brother?

J: I think I understand most of what you said. Let me just ask one further question. Is mankind journeying back toward the garden of Eden, or away from the garden of Eden?

I am Latwii, and we assume that your query refers to the mankind that is the inhabitant of your third-density illusion, and if this be the case, we would suggest that your population within your vibratory frequency is that which is perfecting that quality of self-consciousness which is able to choose the path upon which it shall return to that condition of unity which is represented by the garden of Eden within your holy work.

Thus, the great journey that has been set upon in the creation has reached its culmination within beings such as yourselves who have succeeded in individualizing the consciousness to the extent that to most of your population it seems that each entity is quite separate, one from another, and that there is very little that connects beings in the creation, and that the creation itself, indeed, is that which is many things, each separate from the other. Thus, at this time, those of your population of third density are beginning the process of making the choice which shall allow the return through much of what you call time and experience and the refining of those choices made within your illusion, back to the unity of all things and beings.

May we speak further, my brother?

J: No, thank you. That’s all the questions I have tonight.

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

Carla: Yes, I guess I’d better ask S1’s question. This is from S1. She sends her love and realizes that this is not precisely philosophical, and realizes that you do not infringe on free will, and anything you can say will be fine. She says that in her sleep she’s been going up against a glass wall, and when she wakes up, she’s coming back through the wall, but she can’t remember what she was doing on the other side. She wonders if she will ever be able to remember, and what the nature of the wall is?

I am Latwii, and we find that with this query we move quite close to the potential for infringing upon Free Will and shall do our utmost to walk that line carefully. We may assure the one known as S1 that the process which she is now undergoing is one which is the normal outgrowth of her own inner seeking. The experience which she is able to remember will continue to expand in detail according to her ability to utilize in a conscious fashion the information which is contained therein. We may not speak as to the content or quality of this information, for this is that which is of necessity reserved for the exploration of this entity within her own experience in contemplation and meditation.

The protection that she has provided through ritualized intention is quite sufficient to give this entity the assurance of safe passage during her sleep and dream periods in which the passage through the wall occurs, and we commend this entity for its diligence in taking the time to provide itself with this quality of protection. We can recommend to this entity that the focusing of the attention at the present time upon the feeling tones that are present when she is able to recall any portion of this experience is that which shall be helpful in tracing the path that now is only dimly lit, and which will, with time and intention of seeking, become more discernible to her subconscious and then conscious mind. The contemplation and meditation upon these feeling tones will prepare the conscious mind to accept more and more of that which is available to it through the subconscious mind from the experience that occurs beyond that wall of forgetting.

May we speak in any further fashion, my sister?

Carla: No, I’d just like to thank you for S1, and to tell you that I know she’ll be very happy with the answer and really appreciates being able to contact you. And if she has another question, she can write me back, and I’ll ask you then. It’s nice to hear you.

I am Latwii, and we thank you both, my sisters, for we take great joy in having the opportunity of speaking to each such seeker, and we are especially grateful that this instrument has provided us the opportunity to utilize its abilities at this time. We were about to make a somewhat less than serious comment about its abilities, but refrained at the last moment, for fear of causing too much giggling within a mind which needs a firm center at the moment.

Is there another query at this time?

J: Yes, I have a question. It harks back to the answer you just gave, one portion of it which is a small portion, but probably very important. I’ve always had a kind of thing about worrying about negative influences when I meditate that entities that may be negatively inclined are influencing me. I know Carla and I have had discussions, and she has chastised me lovingly a few times for my views on this, but I’ve never worried about negative entities influencing me or messing with me in any way. Sometimes, I used to think, well, maybe I’m just popping off, and maybe I really do worry about it, or I’m afraid of it deep down. But I don’t think I am, and I’ve never been one to back off from, if someone had something new they wanted to try, even something as silly as getting stoned and meditating really heavy or something. But, whatever, I mean, this would seem this would leave me open to a negative influence.

And my question, after all that is, you said that you appreciated that S1 protected herself against a negative influence on her journey. Can you, if—would a strong or a firm belief that you can’t really be influenced by these negative entities be the same, sort of, and adequate protection against that? I don’t really doubt they exist, but…

[Side one of tape ends.]

I am Latwii, and we are again with this instrument. We may agree that the attitude of which you speak is of great assistance in providing the self with the armor of Light that sings of radiance and service and of the sure step upon the path of seeking. This is a most helpful attitude for most entities who seek the nature of their reality. The more intensely one desires to be of service to those about one, the brighter does the Light grow. This Light is of a metaphysical nature, seen in these realms as a source of power, the power of radiance, the power of service. There are those entities who travel a darker path who also notice a source of Light and power and are attracted by this Light so that they might continue upon their journey of gathering power for their own use, and will, if the Light is powerful or bright enough, attempt to infringe upon that Light in the attempt to gather it for their own use. This is a process which provides the natural balance, shall we say, within all life patterns, for the opportunity to taste of the positive polarity must be balanced with the opportunity to taste of the negative polarity. The entity who seeks within your illusion is one which faces choices at each step along the journey of seeking. That which is learned, then, creates within the entity the need for putting that which is learned into practice within the life pattern. Thus, the life must equal the learning.

If an entity has begun choosing in a purely positive fashion the path of radiance, and within its life pattern from time to time makes choices which do not reflect that which has been learned, and, in fact, become disharmonious and perhaps injurious to those about one, there is created within the life pattern an opening which may be accentuated by those of the negative persuasion, shall we say. This is a natural process of testing that which has been learned and may be used by the seeker of truth to reinvestigate and strengthen those qualities that have been found to be less than perfectly integrated into the life pattern. Just so, the qualities of the positive polarity may, indeed, be intensified by those of the positive path in the same fashion, so that one finds oneself usually in a manner which is not consciously noticed, traveling a path which has, shall we say, opportunities or tests which will allow the entity to demonstrate its ability to live that which has been learned, and to continue refining this ability until it is consciously moving itself along the evolutionary path in a fashion which perceives more than the outer nature of things. Thus, there is no, shall we say, negative influence which is possible without the invitation or opening being created by the seeker. The attitude with which the seeker greets all such possibilities is the attitude which will increase or decrease the efficiency of the seeking.

J asked: “And my question, after all that is, you said that you appreciated that S1 protected herself against a negative influence on her journey. Can you, if—would a strong or a firm belief that you can’t really be influenced by these negative entities be the same, sort of, and adequate protection against that? I don’t really doubt they exist, but…” Latwii went on to say we agree that the attitude of which you speak is of assistance in providing the self with the armor of Light that sings of radiance and service and of the sure step upon the path of seeking, and this is a helpful attitude for most entities who seek the nature of their reality, for the more intensely one desires to be of service to those about one, the brighter does the Light grow, so this Light is of a metaphysical nature, a source of the power of radiance and of service, but there are entities who travel a darker path who also notice a source of Light and power and are attracted by this Light, so that they might continue upon their journey of gathering power for their own use, and will, if the Light is powerful enough, attempt to infringe upon that Light in the attempt to gather it for their own use, and this is a process which provides the natural balance within all life patterns, for the opportunity to taste of the positive polarity must be balanced with the opportunity to taste of the negative polarity, so the entity who seeks within your illusion is one which faces choices at each step along the journey of seeking, and that which is learned creates within the entity the need for putting that which is learned into practice within the life pattern, for the life must equal the learning. Now Latwii said if an entity has begun choosing in a positive fashion the path of radiance, and within its life pattern makes choices which do not reflect that which has been learned and becomes disharmonious and injurious to those about one, there is created within the life pattern an opening which may be accentuated by those of the negative persuasion, for this is a natural process of testing that which has been learned and may be used by the seeker of truth to strengthen those qualities that have been found to be less than perfectly integrated into the life pattern, and the qualities of the positive polarity may be intensified by those of the positive path in the same fashion, so that one finds oneself in a manner which is not consciously noticed, traveling a path which has opportunities which will allow the entity to demonstrate its ability to live that which has been learned and to continue refining this ability until it is consciously moving itself along the evolutionary path in a fashion which perceives more than the outer nature of things, for there is no negative influence which is possible without the opening being created by the seeker, so the attitude with which the seeker greets all such possibilities is the attitude which will increase or decrease the efficiency of the seeking. On February 19, 1995, Q’uo spoke of the nature of the evolutionary path:

The entity which has chosen to proceed on the evolutionary path in the positive sense utilizes the same daily gift of intelligent energy in a fashion which attempts to share this energy with others and to seek with them the mystery of creation and its subtleties. Thus, the use of energy by each polarity is opposite. The individualization process for each polarity is that process in which the seeker will utilize the intelligent energy of the Creator in a fashion which either reveals the unity of creation in some degree for the positive entity or which reveals the power of the entity which has chosen the negative path.

I am Latwii. At this point, we would ask if we might speak in any further fashion, for this is a field which is quite large in scope, and we do not wish to move too rapidly across it without asking for further queries.

J: I believe I basically understand what you’ve said so far. And that’s sufficient. I sometimes wonder if I were really consciously tested in a real heavy manner, that is, if I did see a ghost, what would I do? Maybe I don’t have… I wonder. I guess I question my conditions. Maybe I’ve got my light under a bushel basket, and I haven’t attracted anything for that reason. I’m not sure. But at any rate, I believe your answer is sufficient for me at this time. Thank you.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, my brother and would only add that this process is one which is not usually noticeable within any seeker’s life pattern, but is part of the great mystery of seeking, which each of us attempts to unravel as we continue in our journeys.

Is there a further query at this time?

S2: Latwii, this is not really a question—I’m hoping you can give me one of your confirmations. I saw several, what we erroneously call aliens, apparently working on R, and I wanted to know if you could confirm for me that that was indeed what was going on?

I am Latwii, and we choose at this point to speak in a fashion which shall not be overly specific and, therefore, risk the infringement upon free will. We scan your recent experience in order to discover the nature of this experience. It is possible for us to affirm that your vision is that which has seen the aiding of the one known as R in a fashion which is congruent with this entity’s belief in the state of what you call health being a function of the attitude of mind and the attracting to the system of belief of those qualities of mind which have been lacking, shall we say, and which have provided the opportunity for the balance that will then set the stage, shall we say, for the regaining of that quality that you call health.

May we speak further, my sister?

S1: No, I think I’ll have to read that one first. But I wanted to ask you. Could you tell me why, whenever you show up, I get this really wonderful happy feeling? And I don’t ever get it when anybody else shows up. And I was just wondering if you can tell me the reason for that?

I am Latwii, and as much as we would like to inform you as to the particular reason why you find our humble vibrations helpful and happy-making, we must refrain at this time, and are only able to give our gratitude in response, and we thank you for your happy reception of our vibrations. We look forward to all such opportunities of sharing, my sister.

Is there any further query?

Carla: I’d like to follow up on S2’s. Is what you were saying was that S2’s vision was a materialization very much like psychic surgery where it was a manifestation, an illusion, but a manifestation symbolic of the inner healing that R and his higher self or some overshadowing helper or helpers . . . an inner healing that they were effecting, and that what S2 saw was a materialization which symbolized the inner process. Is that what you said, basically? I thought I caught that.

I am Latwii, and we find that you have nearly grasped the nature of that which we spoke. We would only add that the qualities which the one known as S2 has perceived are, indeed, representative of the inner work now ongoing with the one known as R, according to this entity’s system of belief regards the concept of healing and health.

May we speak further, my sister?

Carla: So you’re saying that the manifestation was for S2, but the inner healing process is ongoing and is for R?

I am Latwii, and this is correct. Is there another query at this time?

S2: I don’t have a question, and I just want to say, I think it’s a heyday every time you show up.

Carla: Hey! With a call like that, they will be back.

I am Latwii, and we have appreciated both the query and the shared silence. We rejoice at the opportunity of blending our vibrations with yours, and we hope that our humble words have had some assistance this evening to your seeking. We are, as you well know, quite fallible in our opinions, and we do not wish any word to be overly weighted in your perception. Take those which do have meaning and leave those which do not. We shall leave this group at this time, rejoicing always in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are known to you as those of Latwii. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.

After I got out of bed this morning I put my green sheets and pillow cases in the laundry, and the I put the blue sheets and pillow cases on my bed.

The quote today from The Infinite Way is: “Spiritual illumination may be attained by living constantly in the consciousness of the presence of perfection, by the continual translation of the visible picture into the reality. We are being faced with discordant appearances all through our days and nights, and these must immediately be translated through our understanding of the “new tongue,” the language of Spirit.

Every incident of our daily experience offers fresh opportunities to use our spiritual understanding, and each use of the spiritual faculties results in greater spiritual perception, which in turn reveals more and more of the Light of Truth. “Pray without ceasing, and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” Translate the pictures and incidents of daily existence into the new tongue, the language of Spirit, and consciousness will expand until translation occurs without even taking natural thought.

Only in this way can we find our lives unfolding harmoniously from the center of our being without taking conscious thought. Instead of our existence being a continual round of demonstrations it becomes the natural, harmonious, joyous unfoldment of good. Instead of repeated efforts to make God come to us, our every good unfolds to view from the depths of our own being without conscious effort, either physical or mental. We are no longer dependent on person or circumstance, nor even on our personal effort. Spiritual illumination enables us to rely on our personal efforts and rely more and more on Divinity unfolding and revealing Itself to us.”

Then I ironed the green flat sheet and pillowcases and put them in the cabinet in my bathroom.

This afternoon I enjoyed co-hosting the European Law of One Telegram Group. I read Ra Session #80 to the group, and some of the questions that they asked me were: “Did we decide on what questions to ask Ra before each session?” Why was the quarantine of planet Earth created at the beginning of the 75,000 year third-density cycle?” “Why is the Matrix of the Spirit filled with so much darkness?” “What is the relationship of consciousness and spirituality?” “What is the purpose of the negative path?” “Do cats remember everything that has ever happened to them?” and “How do I know that I am loving?”

Later this afternoon I ran some errands with my first stop being at Kroger’s where I bought some food for myself.  My second stop was at PNC Bank where I transferred some money from my savings account to my checking account. My third stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought more food for myself. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I dropped off a prescription to be refilled.

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

July 1

The Liquor Of Righteousness

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

Know ye that the Spirit is everywhere to be found in every raindrop, in every birdsong, in every mote of dust under your feet, and in every speck of sky overhead. There is that within you which drinks in this excellent liquor of righteousness and much Light passes between the universe outside of you and the universe within.

When the seeker faces the universe as a part of the universe and moves so as to treasure dust and sky, bird and rose, the spirit is encouraged and strengthened and the bond between humankind and nature grows more into the unity that it should enjoy.

We encourage the finding of joy and laughter in the natural world about, for it is full of the Creator’s Spirit.

We leave you in peace, now and ever.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Laitos channeling for today comes from February 24, 1987:

W channeling)

[Inaudible] wish to reassure them that she is responding well and to relax… We wish to allow her the opportunity to serve… without those feelings from… we are having some difficulty and wish to request that she refrain from analysis at this time. We would like to… define our source challenging. She is tuning much more… toward that which is essential. Request that she allow more greater contact, and this is simply accomplished by removing her thought processes to allow greater Love through… channels. We would like to thank the one known as W for allowing us to use her as a vocal channel. At this time, we will leave her in… the infinite Creator and transfer to the one known as Carla. I am Laitos.

(Carla channeling)

I am Laitos, and greet each again in Love and Light through this instrument as well, and we thank the one known as W, for the presence of mind necessary to initiate contact represents quite a substantial step forward in the process of learning to discern personalities within the universe of unseen personalities. The one known as W shall be offered our assistance not only in the training, which we of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator feel able to offer in the area of vocal channeling, but we are also willing to put ourselves at this new instrument’s disposal at the point at which this new instrument decides to explore some of the deeper motivations for the decision to learn this somewhat unusual gift and service. There shall be things which we are able to offer by our presence during this process, however, there is much work in thought which must be accomplished before this portion of our instruction may transpire. Due to the necessity in contacting other contacts which may desire to speak, that the one contacting such entities must needs be single-pointed as a plane, and, in the sense which this instrument has read in spiritual literature, a warrior able passionately yet dispassionately to participate in the present moment with utmost appreciation and grace.

Thus, this is a period in which the work of meditation shall be most valuable, for it is in the relaxation of the everyday personality that the more metaphysically alive portions of the subconscious mind and spirit complex may grow and reconfigure patterns and designs in order for an ever-improving subjective balance of personality. Thus, we acknowledge to the one known as W that it is possible and perfectly acceptable that at the end of our tutorage and assistance this entity may well desire to be in relationship with a non-Confederation contact. We have the most cordial relationship with many of your so-called inner plane entities whose intentions towards incarnate individuals of your planetary influence are identical to our own, and thus we ask the instrument to channel what of our ideas and concepts it can by virtue of its own biases of mind, heart, and spirit, knowing that there may well be, if the entity experiences all appropriate stimulus, more comfortable and more highly efficacious channeling of an entity which of its own self desires to speak through the one known as W. We shall release this information, asking the entity to ponder it not because we are right or telling a great truth, but because were there no circumstances leading to a further eventuality of other channeling the practice of meditation and the careful seeking for the center of one’s being are occupations which cannot fail to aid and improve the circumstance of any seeker. Again, if this series of thoughts is not helpful, please leave it behind.

In this practice channeling session Laitos spoke of how they worked with new instruments. They began by saying we thank W for the presence of mind necessary to initiate contact which represents a substantial step forward in the process of learning to discern personalities within the universe of unseen personalities, and W shall be offered our assistance not only in the training, which we of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator feel able to offer in the area of vocal channeling, but we are also willing to put ourselves at this new instrument’s disposal at the point at which she decides to explore the deeper motivations for the decision to learn this unusual gift and service, so there are things which we are able to offer by our presence during this process, but there is much work in thought which must be accomplished before this portion of our instruction may transpire due to the necessity in contacting other contacts which may desire to speak, that the one contacting such entities must be single-pointed in the sense which this instrument has read in spiritual literature, a warrior able passionately yet dispassionately to participate in the present moment with utmost appreciation and grace. Now Laitos said this is a period in which the work of meditation shall be valuable, for it is in the relaxation of the everyday personality that the more metaphysically alive portions of the subconscious mind and spirit complex may grow and reconfigure patterns for an ever-improving subjective balance of personality, and we acknowledge to W that it is acceptable that at the end of our assistance this entity may desire to be in relationship with a non-Confederation contact since we have a positive relationship with many of your inner plane entities whose intentions towards incarnate individuals of your planetary influence are identical to our own, and we ask W to channel those of our concepts it can by virtue of its own biases of mind, heart, and spirit, knowing that there may be, if the entity experiences all appropriate stimulus, more comfortable channeling of an entity which desires to speak through W, so we shall release this information, asking the entity to ponder it not because we are right, but because were there no circumstances leading to a further eventuality of other channeling the practice of meditation and the seeking for the center of one’s being are occupations which cannot fail to improve the circumstance of any seeker, and if this series of thoughts is not helpful, please leave it behind. On February 12, 1989, Q’uo described the purpose of inner plane entities:

Once one has begun to accelerate the program of spiritual growth, there are many, many others which may become attracted to the entity. These are some of what you would call inner plane entities, that is, those who have completed their work in your illusion of third density but have elected to remain behind to encourage and inspire those who wish to graduate into the density of Love and compassion at the end of this particular lifetime. These are available by request, and are heard, by those who do not have the refined psychic ability, best in the dreaming process where, when one approaches the sleeping state one simply places oneself within a tuned and protected atmosphere, and protecting the physical vehicle with the crossed hands and the crossed legs, or legs together, invites the teachers of the appropriate vibration to express to you within the dreaming state that which you truly wish to work with, to grasp, and to begin to understand.

We would at this time transfer to the one known as Jim for the purpose of answering any questions that those present may wish to ask. We now transfer. I am Laitos.

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos and greet you once again in Love and Light through this instrument. We are happy to be able to offer ourselves in the attempt to speak about those concerns which you may have this evening. At this time may we ask if we may speak to a query?

W: In regard to the information which you just gave us, I would like some clarification in that to make sure I understand correctly what you just said, and by continuing to work with you through this weekly meditation group and by continuing on my own in terms of just meditation that I can learn to be an effective channel, and that if I so wish I could channel what entity feels most comfortable for me. Is this correct?

I am Laitos, and this is basically the thrust of our suggestion, for you are, as you are aware, able to engage in the service of vocal channeling with greater ease than most new instruments due to a preparation, shall we say, which has become more visible and usable within your incarnation at this time. We are aware that there is the possibility that the kind of contact which you have now begun to enjoy through our working with you is that which may continue in your future experience and that which also may be added unto as you discover further abilities to expand your service with entities which may or may not be members of the Confederation of Planets in Service to the One Creator.

There are many entities who are a part of what we find is called the inner planes of this particular planetary sphere who also seek to speak through instruments for the purpose of not only inspiring an instrument but of sharing information through an instrument with those who may seek in a fashion which is congruent with the entities making the contact. Thus, in whatever manner you choose to continue this service, we wish you to know that we appreciate the opportunity of working with you and we join you in expressing the desire to be of service to the one Creator and to those about you through this kind of service.

May we speak further, my sister?

W: [Inaudible] know that I appreciate your willingness to work with me. I’m curious about the entity that channels through [inaudible], Brother Samuel, in that I was wondering what density he is in and in relation to what density the Confederation is?

I am Laitos and to begin with the latter portion of the query first, those of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the One Creator are composed of a variety of vibratory levels, including some of your own planetary sphere of late third density who have for a great portion of what you call time been able to appreciate a fourth-density vibration of Love and understanding. Our membership includes the densities of Love, of Wisdom, and of Unity, numbering four, five, and six. The opportunity for densities beyond the fourth to speak through instruments upon your planetary surface is greatly less than it is for those of the fourth density for it is towards this density of Love and understanding toward which those of your planetary sphere now move in their evolutionary process. Thus, it is these types of messages that are most often called for and able to be appreciated by the population of your planet.

The entity of which you speak is an entity which we find to be of a great desire to be of service to others, and beyond this point we feel that it is well to reserve comment, for to comment further in describing this entity’s vibratory frequency could seem to be to judge, and we do not wish our words or comments to serve as any kind of stumbling block to any other seeker of truth. In the final analysis, shall we say, the source or origin of any contact is far, far less important than the content of the information which any contact may have to offer to any seeker. Thus, the seeker shall determine the information that is of most value to it.

May we speak further, my sister?

W: On that question [inaudible] very much appreciate the information [inaudible].

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

W: To get back to the information which [inaudible] is there in terms of my meditations, are there any suggestions which would aid in developing communication or receptivity?

I am Laitos. At this point in your study of this particular service, my sister, we find that the ground work is well accomplished and the foundation is laid carefully. When a new instrument has been able to open itself to the contact which we offer to the degree that you have been able to speak those concepts as clearly and freely as you have spoken them we can only add that the perseverance and the effort is the point most in need of focused attention. The daily meditative time which has been set aside is that time in which the desire not only to seek the truth, as you call it, to serve as an instrument through which portions of that truth may move in inspiration to others, is most helpful in the continuing deepening of such dedication. It is in these moments of communion with the one Creator that one may double and re-double the intensity of desire to seek and to share the truth. Take those times, then, and within the boundaries of your meditation seek to know more and more the heart of your own being and to continue the intensification of the desire to know and to be and to share greater and greater portions of truth.

May we speak further, my sister?

W: I’ve come to greater awareness of the lack of Love for self with this awareness. I guess where I’m not quite sure and am inclined to ask, I have feeling that this has been what has been lacking in my conscious thoughts, what I have been in contact with on a subconscious level, that being my higher self and whatever other contacts have been made. Is this correct, and with this new awareness is this something that we can really [inaudible].

I am Laitos, and we might comment by suggesting the perception which you have shared is in its own way relatively accurate, although there is another way of perceiving the lack of Love for self which we would suggest at this time as a method, or portion of a method, for finding greater and greater Love for, and by so Loving the self becoming more and more able to Love other selves about one which reflect to one the nature of self. And that perception is that the lack of Love for self may be seen as a means of preparing the self for greater service. As one becomes aware of the lack of Love and acceptance of the self, and turns to work upon that quality, one begins to build a stronger framework of the heart of self, and through the strengthening of the core perceptions of and feelings for the self, so is laid a firmer foundation for services that may then be offered to others.

Thus, suggesting the perception which you have shared is in its own way relatively accurate, although there is another way of perceiving the lack of Love for self which we would suggest at this time as a method, or portion of a method, for finding greater and greater Love for, and by so Loving the self becoming more and more able to Love other selves about one which reflect to one the nature of self. And that perception is that the lack of Love for self may be seen as a means of preparing the self for greater service.

W asked: “I’ve come to greater awareness of the lack of Love for self with this awareness. I guess where I’m not quite sure and am inclined to ask, I have feeling that this has been what has been lacking in my conscious thoughts, what I have been in contact with on a subconscious level, that being my higher self and whatever other contacts have been made. Is this correct, and with this new awareness is this something that we can really [inaudible].” Laitos responded by suggesting the perception which you have shared is relatively accurate, although there is another way of perceiving the lack of Love for self which we would suggest at this time as a method for finding greater Love, and by so Loving the self, becoming more able to Love other selves about one which reflect to one the nature of the self, and that perception is that the lack of Love for the self may be seen as a means of preparing the self for greater service, for as one becomes aware of the lack of Love and acceptance of the self, and turns to work upon that quality, one begins to build a stronger framework of the heart of self, and through the strengthening of the core perceptions of and feelings for the self, so is laid a firmer foundation for services that may be offered to others. Laitos went on to suggest the perception which you have shared is accurate, although there is another way of perceiving the lack of Love for self which we would suggest as a method for finding greater Love for Loving the self and becoming able to Love other selves about one which reflect to one the nature of self, and that perception is that the lack of Love for the self may be seen as a means of preparing the self for greater service, so as one becomes aware of the lack of Love and acceptance of the self, and turns to work upon that quality, one begins to build a stronger framework of the heart of self, and through the strengthening of the core perceptions for the self so is laid a firmer foundation for services that may be offered to others. On May 20, 2017, Q’uo spoke of the value of Loving the self:

There is, within each soul’s incarnational pattern, those pre-incarnative lessons that each has fervently hoped would be able to be learned within the incarnational pattern. The subconscious mind of each has been programmed by the soul to look with a certain bias upon catalyst that comes in the notice of the seeker, so that at some point the heart chakra might be opened enough to experience a sense of Loving those about one, of Loving the self, of Loving the universe about one. This type of transformation is possible when one is able to be alert and aware of the pre-incarnative lessons, so that when catalyst comes one’s way, it can be seen in a certain fashion, so that no two entities would look at the same catalyst in the same way, since all are unique, and all have programmed certain lessons that are, indeed, unique, though they may include the lesson of Love in some facet or fashion for each entity.

Thus, it is our hope that as the fourth-density vibrations continue to engulf the planet, that those entities who have not yet been able to find a conscious realization of their purpose in this life pattern might be able to open the door to their own hearts, so that there is the ability to experience the Love therein, and to share it with those about one.

May we speak further, my sister?

W: Is it also that by experiencing certain challenges one in service to the other one is able to understand their situation [inaudible] service or help?

I am Laitos, and, indeed, we find this to be quite correct, for within your illusion, most of the purpose and means for fulfilling purpose for an incarnation is hidden from the seeker of truth, even from one who seeks most diligently and constantly. Those times of difficulty are the times during which the greatest growth is possible, for no muscle, be it physical, mental, or spiritual, grows stronger through lack of use but only through greater and greater use. In the times of difficulty you are using all that you have of spiritual, mental, emotional, and perhaps even the physical complexes in order to survive and to retain the balanced view. Thus, in truth, one may rejoice in difficulties, for at these times one is offered the opportunity to expand one’s limited ability to perceive the Creator in all portions of the illusion and to be of service to those portions which seem unlovable and unacceptable.

May we speak further, my sister?

W: Is that where the concept of letting go comes in, allowing the Creator to guide as opposed to the self trying to manipulate?

I am Laitos, and we find that this is one fundamentally important portion of the opportunity for learning that presents itself in the times of difficulty. The entity suffering the difficulty will, by its very nature, respond in a fashion which is spontaneous, unrehearsed and perhaps even quite out of control as you would call it. Within these responses there lies the reflection of the limitations of the entity which are now presenting themselves for the opportunity of being stretched and expanded to the point where a greater view of the creation, and of the self, and the relationship between the self and the creation might be observed by the entity.

As the entity is looking upon its own experience and is in the middle of things, shall we say, it will find if the test is true and intensely enough experienced that there is a point beyond which the entity has little effect upon the movement of experience and the outcome of events. At this point the entity, perhaps in meditation, contemplation, or prayer will find it most helpful to surrender the smaller view of the conscious mind and its analysis of what to do and not to do to the greater self, which some call the higher self, and to those forces of Light which guide and protect each entity within the third-density illusion. In this way the entity is brought face to face with its own limitations and its need for inspiration and transformation of its point of view by surrendering the smaller point of view and belief system. The entity is making a path or channel through which aid may be offered by greater portions of the self, including the higher self and those guides and teachers which are drawn to an entity by the nature of its seeking. In this way the intuition may feed and nourish the conscious mind and aid in its expan…

W asked: “Is that where the concept of letting go comes in, allowing the Creator to guide as opposed to the self trying to manipulate?” Laitos continued by saying we find that this is one important portion of the opportunity for learning that presents itself in the times of difficulty, for the entity suffering difficulty will, by its very nature, respond in a fashion which is spontaneous and even out of control, and within these responses there lies the reflection of the limitations of the entity which are now presenting themselves for the opportunity of being expanded to the point where a greater view of the creation, and of the self, and the relationship between the self and the creation might be observed by the entity.

On August 16, 1992, Q’uo spoke of the purpose of our guides and teachers:

We applaud each entity’s efforts at moving through this illusion which is filled with mystery and confusion, for it is a valiant effort which you make within such a heavy chemical illusion. Each has friends, guides and teachers that walk with each other, whether seen or unseen. And we can assure each of you that you are never alone upon this path though each will feel a loneliness many times during the journey. Each time you are calling inwardly or outwardly for assistance, your calls are heard, and if you will listen carefully with your inner ear, you will hear the response, for the one Creator cares for each of Its children and hears each call.

This morning the quote from The Infinite Way is: “Illumination dissolves all material ties and binds people together with the golden chains of spiritual understanding; it acknowledges only the leadership of the Christ; it has no ritual or rule but the divine, impersonal, universal Love, no other worship than the inner Flame that is ever lit at the shrine of Spirit. This union is the free state of spiritual companionhip. The only restraint is the discipline of Soul; therefore, we know liberty without license; we are a united universe without physical limits, a divine service to God without ceremony or creed.

The illumined walk without fear—by Grace.

To know that we are the fulfillment of God, that we are that place in consciousness where God shines through, is to be spiritually minded. The realization that every individual is the presence of God, that all that is, is God appearing, is spiritual consciousness. The understanding that what we see, hear, taste, touch, or smell through the five physical senses is but the finite concept of reality and in no wise related to the spiritually real is spiritual sense.

Christ-consciousness beholds God everywhere shining through the mist of personal sense. It recognizes no sinner to be reformed, no sick to heal, no poor to enrich. Spiritual illumination dispels the false concepts or images of finite sense and reveals all being as God appearing.

The Light in individual consciousness reveals the world of God’s creating, the universe of reality, the children of God. In this Light, the mortal scene disappears, and the world of concepts, this world, gives place to “My kingdom,” the reality of things seen as they are.

Likewise, there is always the sense of an inner companionship. We feel an inner warmth, a living presence, a divine assurance. Sometimes we feel a face over our shoulder. We are never alone, and we know it. The sweet Presence gives us an inner rest; It enables us to relax from the strain of the world and brings us the joy of peace. In truth It is a “peace, be still” to every problem or strain of human existence. It is a healing influence within us, and yet It is felt by all those about us.

This inner Presence of which we are aware is Truth Itself interpreting Itself to us as presence, power, companion, Light, peace, and healing influence—as the Christ. The consciousness of this inner Being is the result of our greater spiritual illumination of our cultivated spiritual consciousness. This Truth is the God who heals our diseases, and It goes ever before us to make smooth our path in life. This Truth is wealth and appears as our abundant supply. No human circumstance or condition can lessen our income and wealth while we abide in this consciousness of the presence of Love.”

Later this morning I had an 8:30 am appointment with Nurse Practitioner Helena Bonham who I see twice each year for her assistance in helping me deal with acid reflux. She didn’t have any suggestions as to what I could do better, so it was a short visit.

This afternoon I went outside and used the garden hose and sprayer to clean the filters in the skimmer in the fishpond. Then I pumped three fourths of the water out of the fishpond. While the water was pumping out of the fishpond, I fertilized the water lilies and pulled off the dying lily pads. Then I threw a cup of AquaSafe into the fishpond to neutralize the chlorine in the water that I was putting into the fishpond. Then I went into my bedroom and did my stretching exercises, and then I put my laundry into the washing machine. Then I took a bath. After I got dressed, I went back outside to check the level of the water, and I threw another cup of AquaSafe into the fishpond. Then I shaved my face and neck and went back outside. Then I decided to move the tube that the fountain comes out of into a little deeper part of the fishpond, so that the fountain didn’t splash any water out of the fishpond. Then I rolled up the garden hose, and came back into my home.

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

June 30

The Natural Darkness Of Flesh

I am the voice of Christ’s consciousness of Love to the world, and I greet you in the Love of Jesus the Christ. This instrument has long pondered why there is discomfort to the instrument when the instrument begins to tune itself and prepare for contact with the Spirit of the living God.

Know ye that you are both Light and darkness. As it has been written, the Light came into the world, but the darkness knew it not.

One who seeks the living spirit that speaks to the world today seeks the Light which the world recognizes not, nor does the body in the natural darkness of flesh.

Thusly, when the mind and spirit are entrained to a higher and more compassionate tuning, there is created within the being a unity in which one part does not recognize the other. The Light does not recognize the darkness, nor the darkness, the Light.

Know that you are both and that your choice is always the darkness of a world which has not thought of Christ or the Light which is the powerful and renewing thought of Christ in the world.

We leave you in peace, both now and through eternity. 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 Q’uo and Nona channelings for this session come from February 15, 1987:

About the “mark of the beast,” as mentioned in the Bible, what it might be, what it means to people and so forth.

(Carla channeling)

I am Q’uo, and I greet you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. It is a privilege to blend our vibrations with yours as you sit in meditation, and we thank you for calling us to join you and offer our faulty and error-filled thoughts.

Upon the subject of the mark of the beast. This instrument wished us luck before she gave over control of the speaking mechanism to us, and we do, indeed, feel lucky to be able to speak with you about evil, for surely, the mark of the beast is only a symbol for that which is evil. Indeed, the mind often thinks in symbols rather than turning to the essence of things. To be literal, which is of course one level of answering the question, the mark of the beast, it being 666, is a triple number, rooted in the Cabalistic traditions of your Eastern peoples. Within that tradition, the number six refers to the house of mundane things. The number six has connotations concerning finances, wealth, security, and survival. If one has a penchant for luxury, the number six might be expected to figure in a numerological analysis of such an entity’s name or birth date. When a number is doubled, it is the same number but stronger, and when it is tripled, it is very strong, thus the number 666 is literally, “the things of this world.” Thus, the mark of the beast is symbolized by a number which connotes your present experience.

Lift your thoughts with me, and let us look at this world of yours that is full of symbols of the evil of the beast; here a daisy, there a lark, here a thinking youth, and there a smiling woman. These things do not seem outwardly evil, yet for those who gaze upon the beast, the mark can be found, for the illusion is yours and each of you may choose to interpret what lies before you as you will. It is possible through description to cause the same scene to appear quite wonderful or quite the opposite by the careful use of detail. We might point out, for instance, instead of a flower, one of your refuse heaps; instead of a smiling woman, a hungry child. The choice of symbols is always yours, nor is the beast strong within one who chooses positively oriented symbols to facilitate the interpretation of catalyst.

The concept that Q’uo discusses in this session is: “About the “mark of the beast,” as mentioned in the Bible, what it might be, what it means to people and so forth.” Q’uo began by saying Carla wished us luck before she gave over control of the speaking mechanism to us, and we do feel lucky to be able to speak with you about evil, for the mark of the beast is a symbol for evil, and the mind often thinks in symbols rather than turning to the essence of things, so the mark of the beast, it being 666, is a triple number rooted in the Cabalistic traditions of your Eastern people, for within that tradition the number six refers to the house of mundane things such as wealth, security, and survival, and if one has a desire for luxury the number six might be expected to figure in a numerological analysis of an entity’s name or birth date, for when a number is doubled, it is the same number but stronger, and when it is tripled, it is very strong, thus the number 666 is literally, “the things of this world,” so the mark of the beast is symbolized by a number which describes your present experience. Q’uo went on to say lift your thoughts with me, and let us look at this world of yours that is full of symbols of the evil of the beast; here a daisy, there a lark, here a thinking youth, and there a smiling woman, but these things do not seem evil, yet for those who gaze upon the beast, the mark can be found, for the illusion is yours, and each of you may choose to interpret what lies before you as you will, so it is possible through description to cause the same scene to appear wonderful or the opposite by the careful use of detail, and we might point out instead of a flower, one of your refuse heaps; instead of a smiling woman, a hungry child, so the choice of symbols is always yours, nor is the beast strong within one who chooses positively oriented symbols to facilitate the interpretation of catalyst. On September 8, 2007, Q’uo spoke of the nature of the things of this world:

Oftentimes in your organized religions there is the suggestion that the human being is entirely separate from that entity that may do good works, or who may be acceptable to the one infinite Creator. The things of this world, which include all of those facets of the personality which have to do with this world, are seen as full of sin and the territory which is in the rule of the Devil or Satan or the negative forces.

The spiritual is seen as something separate, something to be yearned for and to be sought through the middleman, whether it be the priest, the Holy Spirit, the Blessed Virgin Mary, Jesus the Christ, or whatever intermediary is taught within other forms of organized religion than those with which this instrument has familiarity.

What we are attempting to do is to indicate to you our feelings concerning prophecy. The mark of the beast is one of many symbols used within an inspired work of channeling done by the one named John. Much of this entity’s effort was involved not in offering universal symbology, but rather in sending covert information concerning specific events and entities to those known to the one known as John. The work has inspired and over-awed many, yet seldom has the deeper symbology been penetrated to discover the balance of the present moment. Such is the greatest danger of prophecy and symbology. Whatever one thinks about evil, one must cause one’s thinking to become twisted and biased in order to accommodate the eccentric symbology of the beast, its mark, its unusual body design, and its various foes. Perhaps this has kept some from gazing upon the essence of the beast.

The essence of the beast lies within each heart and within each mind. The essence of the beast is the power of denial. Just as the essence of Love is the power of acceptance, so the essence of evil is the perfect ability to deny what is true and believe what is false. Thus, evil has far less to do, for instance, with money than with less-than-straightforwardness in gathering, keeping, and spending money. One who is seeking the essence of the positive seeks more and more to offer the self in service. One who wishes evil may seem to offer service to others, yet always there is some denial of free will, some rejection of some aspect of universal Love, some implied or stated separation between you and some other. The one who looks for advantages at another’s expense is a far clearer symbol of the beast than a number.

Then Q’uo said we are attempting to indicate to you our feelings concerning prophecy, so the mark of the beast is one of many symbols used within an inspired work of channeling done by John, and much of this entity’s effort was involved, not in offering universal symbology, but in sending secret information concerning events and entities to those known to John, for the work has inspired many, yet seldom has the deeper symbology been penetrated to discover the balance of the present moment, so such is the danger of prophecy and symbology, yet whatever one thinks about evil, one must cause one’s thinking to become biased in order to accommodate the symbology of the beast, its mark, its unusual body design, and its various foes, and this has kept some from gazing upon the essence of the beast. Now Q’uo said the essence of the beast lies within each heart and within each mind, and the essence of the beast is the power of denial, so just as the essence of Love is the power of acceptance, so the essence of evil is the ability to deny what is true and believe what is false, but evil has less to do with money than being straightforward in gathering, keeping, and spending money, for one who is seeking the essence of the positive seeks to offer the self in service, yet one who wishes evil may seem to offer service to others, yet always there is some denial of free will, some rejection of some aspect of universal Love, some separation between you and some other, yet the one who looks for advantages at another’s expense is a clearer symbol of the beast than a number. On July 18, 1982, Latwii spoke of the nature of universal Love:

The lessons of your illusion deal primarily with the center of the heart and the green-ray vibrations of universal Love, compassion, forgiveness, and understanding. These lessons of the heart, when mastered to a sufficient degree, may then be communicated as a form of inspiration to others by an entity’s very being as well as the more obvious words and deeds of that entity.

It has been said among your group this evening that as you sit in meditation, you live in the experience of the age of the beast, the age of universal credit and the rule of many by numbers. Remember that it is not the symbols that have power, but the essences that give the symbols power. The evil which lies within your monetary systems is an evil—that is to say a lie—which has been with you since the first money was used to make money rather than trading being done between two entities which had use of each others’ surplus. Thus, the essence of money being artificial power is an evil essence by definition. However, the technology of your age, my children, is neither good nor evil, but a tool used for good or ill. Would that we could guide you to one writing which made all things clear, one set of symbols in which there was no doubt of clear meaning, no confusion as to extraneous detail. We cannot, for there is no construction made of words and concepts which is not also a group of symbols, and in the end that which you know of good and evil abide not in symbols but in essences. Essences are felt by the deepest heart and mind of an entity so that there is recognition and knowingness of that which is, shall we say, morally pleasing and morally distasteful.

As you gaze upon this age which many find full of lies and, therefore, evil, look upon the essences of people, relationships and the stewardship of that which is seemingly evil—money—and find within yourself the positive truth affirming, life-affirming characteristics and attributes of people, relationships, and stewardship which can be brought to bear upon each and every situation. For this is not an age—this, my children, is your age, and no mark of any beast can shape the rhythm of your own creation. That there are highly motivated, negatively oriented angelic spirits is as true as that there are highly polarized and motivated positive angelic entities. We have no desire to play down the loyal opposition which challenges us and makes us learn to be strong. We wish only to correct any tendency towards feeling that one is in the grip of evil or in any way limited or governed by the apparent world view. To many, this is, indeed, the age of the beast. We find this among the peoples, this attitude of many greatly disturbed, greatly in pain, but accepting many symbols as essences. Knowing that Love created all, and that the great original Thought of Love forms the heart of all that there is, we ask you to be satisfied only with the essences of things.

Q’uo continued by saying it has been said among your group this evening that as you sit in meditation, you live in the experience of the age of the beast, the age of universal credit and the rule of many by numbers, but remember that it is not the symbols that have power, but the essences that give the symbols power, for the evil which lies within your monetary systems is an evil—that is to say a lie—which has been with you since the first money was used to make money rather than trading being done between two entities which had use of each others’ surplus, so the essence of money being artificial power is an evil essence by definition, but the technology of your age is neither good nor evil, but a tool used for good or ill, so we wish we could guide you to one writing which made all things clear, but we cannot, for there is no construction made of words and concepts which is not also a group of symbols, and in the end that which you know of good and evil abide not in symbols but in essences that are felt by the deepest heart and mind of an entity, so that there is recognition and knowingness of that which is morally pleasing and morally distasteful.

On April 4, 1982, Hatonn said that Love created all:

The truth of your being is a truth of unity—not apparent unity, not conditional unity, but unity with the dark and with the light, with the shadow and with the angel. One Love created all. One Love creates you. One great Thought is you and all else in the creation. Do you wish to know yourself? You have many choices to make, for again and again it will be easier to decide to know nothing more than to again affirm your desire to know. And each affirmation will bring with it a resolution, a lightening, and often that sudden burst of joy.

Thus, may you find sunshine in dark places, and thus may your discrimination steer you from unexpected shadows which others may not see. It is your experience, your creation, your living we ask you to join with us in seeking the Creator, without fear and with an ever-mounting desire to touch again and again the wonderful Light-filled mystery of consciousness. And now, because we have talked about a heavy word, a weighty, sad word, this symbol of despair that is evil, let us lighten our meditation before we move on. Let us release this question, for it troubles this instrument and may trouble others. Let us turn to gaze upon the mark of the angels. What would that be, my children—except a smile. What is the truth and symbol of the truth—except a look of joy, for that which is, is Love.

Now Q’uo said may you find sunshine in dark places, and may your discrimination steer you from unexpected shadows which others may not see, for it is your experience, your creation, your living, and we ask you to join with us in seeking the Creator, without fear and with an ever-mounting desire to touch again and again the wonderful Light-filled mystery of consciousness, and now, because we have talked about a sad word, this symbol of despair that is evil, let us lighten our meditation before we move on, so let us release this question, for it troubles this instrument and may trouble others, and let us turn to gaze upon the mark of the angels, so what would that be except a smile, for what is the symbol of truth except a look of joy, for that which is, is Love. On January 15, 1989, Hatonn spoke of the mystery of consciousness:

For, my friends, when we ask you to experience the Creator, to tabernacle with the Creator, we are asking you to change. In the process of meditating and focusing in inward silence upon what the Creator may have to offer to you this day, one learns many things. One becomes aware of a grasp of knowledge or a point of view that is broader and different than before, and you have begun to change.

Thus, the way to passion, the way to Love, is not easy, for you must empty out of yourself many armorings and defenses against those things which you fear which you do not have to fear, thus freeing the attention, so that it may rest upon the fundamental mystery of consciousness. Focus upon that fundamental mystery until you begin to feel the desire to experience, to know more. Let that desire build ever more. If you are not satisfied with the level of your desire to seek as we said, you may simply dance, or sing, or move, or run, or swim, or do anything which moves one past one’s limits. Then sit and meditate again. Some of the veil will have been lifted because when one is quite exhausted the seat of consciousness rests far more in the subconscious portion of the mind. There it is that feelings are stored. There it is that passion lies waiting for its remembrance. The key is remembrance.

We leave you in that Love and in the Light and would speak with you further through the one known as Jim. We are those of Q’uo.

(Jim channeling)

I am Q’uo and greet each of you again through this instrument in Love and in Light. It is our privilege at this time to open this meeting to queries which those gathered may have brought for the asking. May we begin with a query at this time?

J: Is the basic denial that exists on this plane, is that basically just the denial that we are God, and that our own will is one and the same with the will of God? Is that the basic denial that’s kept us separated from the one God all this time?

I am Q’uo, and we find that the query which you have asked is one which covers a great deal of territory and experience within your illusion. If we may look upon the population of your planet’s third-density illusion, we see that the great veil of forgetting which separates the conscious from the unconscious mind is that which effectively brings about a condition which you may in your terminology call a denial of sight. This sight is that which is most inward and outward seeking for the nature of the creation in which an entity finds itself. If we are to look upon the primary means of perceiving the creation and its meaning for those of your third density, we might take that denial of which you have spoken and describe it rather as the inability to perceive the unity of all the creation, the infinity which is the foundation, the current reality and what you would call a future experience for all those of the third-density illusion.

Thus, this inability to see the connected nature of all things, all thoughts, is a denial which, indeed, allows an entity to consider itself separate from and outside the influence of that power which you call God or the Creator. This seeming separation or denial or lack of perception creates a condition in which an entity may learn a variety of lessons which will eventually provide an opportunity for the integrating of each individual lesson with the wholeness of not only the greater self, which resides beyond the veil of forgetting, but the selves of all creatures and things about one in the creation and indeed with the Creator Itself. Thus, the perception is limited, in order that work might be done within limited boundaries that would not be possible should the boundaries not exist and the sight penetrate infinity and thus make the experiment of limitations that which is obvious to those who see with far-seeing eyes. With the impossibility of such limitation, there is also the lack of opportunity for the experience of the Creator in an individualized form. This individualized form is that which each third density takes up in order that there might be a greater experience and glorification provided for the one Creator through each individual.

J asked: “Is the basic denial that exists on this plane, is that basically just the denial that we are God, and that our own will is one and the same with the will of God? Is that the basic denial that’s kept us separated from the one God all this time?” Q’uo replied by saying if we may look upon the population of your planet’s third-density illusion, we see that the veil of forgetting which separates the conscious from the unconscious mind is that which brings about a condition which you may call a denial of sight, and this sight is that which is inward and outward seeking for the nature of the creation in which an entity finds itself, for if we are to look upon the primary means of perceiving the creation and its meaning for those of your third density, we might take that denial of which you have spoken and describe it as the inability to perceive the unity of the creation, the infinity which is the foundation, the current reality and a future experience for those of the third-density illusion. Now Q’uo said this inability to see the connected nature of all things is a denial which allows an entity to consider itself separate from the influence of that power of the Creator, for this seeming separation creates a condition in which an entity may learn a variety of lessons which will provide an opportunity for the integrating of each individual lesson with the wholeness of not only the greater self, which resides beyond the veil of forgetting but the selves of all creatures and things about one in the creation and with the Creator, so the perception is limited in order that work might be done within limited boundaries that would not be possible should the boundaries not exist, and the sight penetrate infinity and make the experiment of limitations obvious to those who see with far-seeing eyes, for with the impossibility of such limitation, there is the lack of opportunity for the experience of the Creator in an individualized form and is that which each entity in third density takes up in order that there might be a greater experience provided for the one Creator through each individual. On July 28, 1985, Latwii described our experience of the Creator:

This is true, my friends, for to the best of our understanding, there is no portion of any entity or of any part of creation which does not contain that which is sought. This is to say that all things, all entities, are the Creator and are that which each seeks. That this is not obvious and clear to those within your illusion of reality is both a blessing and, while in the incarnation, would seem a curse. It is a blessing, my friends, that you operate in what has been called a veil or darkness, a forgetting of who you are, because in this state of thinking, the attempts that you make to seek the truth carry much more weight within your total beingness than would such attempts carry should it be obvious that all things are the one Creator. It would not be difficult to Love without condition; it would not be difficult to give without stint; it would not be difficult to see the one Creator in all entities and experiences if there were no other thing to see.

Yet within your illusion it seems a curse to move in such darkness with such dimly lit pathways, for the errors seem to greatly outnumber the successes in finding any portion of truth and purpose in life. Yet, my friends, we say that because the one Creator exists in all entities, each experience of every entity is an experience of the Creator knowing Itself. Thus, do each of you glorify the one Creator by presenting the gifts of your experiences, however small or large, to the one Creator. These experiences would not be available without your efforts.

May we speak further, my brother?

J: No, that was excellent, Thank you.

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

H: Yeah, I have one thing, one idea on this thing, and that is this. If we entertain thoughts of this mark as such and all that, would that actually prevent or hold us from being fourth-density material? I assume that this is right. If we continue to entertain bad thoughts or evil thoughts rather than positive thoughts. Is this right?

I am Q’uo, and, my brother, though there is the tendency towards correctness in your supposition, the simplicity of its statement is that which we would hesitate in accepting as correct, for it is, indeed, true that the focus of one’s attention determines where one shall find the opportunity for lessons and services. The focus of one’s attention, in a general context, if it rests upon the appearance of things, is destined to move from that which seems separate and perhaps threatening to yet another portion of experience that seems separate from the self and perhaps again threatening to the self, for all the creation about one within your illusion seems to be quite removed from the individual experience without cohesion, without rhythm, and without harmony. Yet, if one directs the attention and the desire to know the nature of things beyond the exterior appearance of things and begins to move into the heart of all things and thought and activity, one may with such a focused attention begin to harmonize the individual perception of each portion of the creation which surrounds one, thus bringing into a coherent pattern various portions of the creation which with renewed dedication of seeking begin to fit as one part of a puzzle fitting into another and another and another, so that the creation one perceives begins to take on a form, and a feeling, and a purpose, and an experience of unity becomes more and more possible for such a seeker and such a focused point of viewing the creation about it.

Thus, my brother, when looking upon any portion of the creation which surrounds one, it is well to note not only the exterior appearance and action of things, events, and people, but to begin to move beyond those appearances within one’s thinking and perceiving so that the common features, and feelings, and rhythms, and tones may become apparent as well, and as layer upon layer of meaning is discovered, the simplicity and unity of all portions of the creation become more apparent to one who seeks in this manner. And thus, as the unified nature of the creation becomes apparent to such an entity, and the entity begins to move in harmony with the power, the creative power of Love which is found to move all things, then one more and more readies the self for the graduation, as you have called it, into that density of Love and understanding where the veils are removed, and the Creator more clearly stands before the entity in all experience.

H asked: “If we entertain thoughts of this mark as such and all that, would that actually prevent or hold us from being fourth-density material? I assume that this is right. If we continue to entertain bad thoughts or evil thoughts rather than positive thoughts. Is this right?” Q’uo said though there is the tendency towards correctness in your supposition, the simplicity of its statement is that which we hesitate in accepting as correct, for it is true that the focus of one’s attention determines where one finds the opportunity for lessons and services, so the focus of one’s attention, if it rests upon the appearance of things, is destined to move from that which seems separate and threatening to another portion of experience that seems separate from the self and again threatening to the self, for all the creation about one within your illusion seems to be removed from the individual experience without harmony, yet if one directs the desire to know the nature of things beyond the exterior appearance of things and begins to move into the heart of all things, one may with such a focused attention begin to harmonize the individual perception of each portion of the creation which surrounds one, thus bringing into a coherent pattern various portions of the creation which, with renewed dedication of seeking, begin to fit as one part of a puzzle fitting into another and another, so that the creation one perceives begins to take on a feeling and a purpose, so an experience of unity becomes more possible for a seeker with a focused point of viewing the creation about it. Q’uo went on to say when looking upon any portion of the creation which surrounds one, it is well to note not only the exterior appearance and action of things, events, and people but to begin to move beyond those appearances within one’s thinking and perceiving so that the common feelings and rhythms may become apparent as well, and as layer upon layer of meaning is discovered, the simplicity and unity of all portions of the creation become more apparent to one who seeks in this manner, and as the unified nature of the creation becomes apparent to such an entity, and the entity begins to move in harmony with the creative power of Love which is found to move all things, then one readies the self for the graduation into that density of Love and understanding where the veils are removed, and the Creator more clearly stands before the entity in all experience. On October 14, 2023, Q’uo spoke of how we can graduate into the fourth density of Love and understanding:

It is the path of the seeker of truth, the conscious seeker of truth, to attempt within each incarnation to move forward upon the spiritual path that allows the being to open the heart in unconditional Love in a manner which exceeds the 51% level of graduation, shall we say, into the fourth density of Love and understanding. Thus, if this can be done within one incarnation, then it is possible to move forward without further incarnations being necessary. However, as each seeker of truth is unique, it cannot be predicted by any source, as to how many incarnations will be necessary to make this journey into the heart and to open it in unconditional Love in the majority of the time of interaction with others. Thus, it cannot be predicted how many incarnations would be necessary.

May we speak further, my brother?

H: No, that was very well explained. I have a much better feel for it now. I appreciate it and I thank you.

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

Questioner: I have a question in reference to the number six, pertaining to numerology as in a person’s name. If there is an absence of six, is this significant? And if so, in what way?

I am Q’uo, and we are not completely sure if our grasp of your query is sufficient Please requery if our response is not sufficient. The numbering that is apparent within any entity’s naming or date of birth is a symbol which opens, shall we say, the road map in a certain area of the entity’s life to the entity’s viewing in order that perhaps the wide and narrow portions of the road might be seen and given appropriate attention. Whether one or another number is present or missing is a portion of the entity’s roadmap, the presence or absence of which adds or subtracts certain characteristics or possibilities for that entity. Thus, the numerological understanding of an entity’s significant nature provides the symbolic form that the entity has chosen in order to express certain characteristics and to allow opportunities for certain lessons within a certain incarnation.

May we speak further, my sister?

Questioner: I think that answers it. Thank you.

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

Carla: Well, if everybody’s all finished, I did have one. Q’uo, I wonder if you could help me in my teaching. I suspect one of my students, a girl named W, of having an entity present. I’ve challenged the entity, and it seems to be a positively-oriented entity. It’s not of the Confederation, and I can’t get its name, but I expect W could. Now, can I help this channel to develop in such a way that the entity has the best chance of making a good, safe, positive contact with this entity, which seems to be a helpful entity, without setting her up for it? You don’t have to tell me how to do it without setting it up for it, if that’s something I have to figure out, but any tips that you could give me on how to work with this situation would be helpful because I haven’t run into it before.

I am Q’uo, and with this query we find that we must step carefully in order that we do not cross the line of free will choices which is reserved in a sacred fashion for each seeker to move within itself. The entity of which you speak, the one known as W, has, as you have surmised, both the ability to serve as a vocal instrument in a pronounced fashion and the opportunity to do so in a manner which is moving towards its appropriate expression. As to your role in this process…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Q’uo and am again with this instrument. We can only reaffirm, my sister, those techniques which you have utilized in a successful fashion in previous teachings, combined with the greater reliance upon the intuition which we find that you have also exercised in the recent meditation sessions with this entity. This is an opportunity not only for this new student to learn its service but also is an opportunity for the teacher to expand the abilities in the teaching. The techniques are familiar to you. The reliance upon the intuition is that which is newer in your experience, and that which we might suggest holds the greater opportunity at this time for your service, not only to this particular new instrument, but in your service as a teacher of the vocal channeling service as well.

May we speak further, my sister?

Carla: I’m going to read over what you said, but I believe I understand. Thanks a lot.

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

Carla: I have just one question that I’ve always wondered about and never had a satisfactory answer to. Why is everybody so fascinated with the mark of the beast? I mean, people are anywhere in this culture. People from all different Christian and non-Christian viewpoints, very extreme, are actually interested in that.

I am Q’uo, and, my sister, we find that the simplicity of the query moved into an area which is not as simple to provide an answer for. The feeling for power and the ability to affect events and people is that which fascinates many of your population. Your population exists within an illusion in which many individual entities move and participate in the rituals of gathering wealth, position, respect, and power of various kinds. It seems to many of your population that the gathering of power in whatever form and for whatever reason is an activity in which all wish to excel in some manner, whether the power be social, financial, religious or spiritual or simply the power over entities in one’s own family or neighborhood. There is the feeling within many of your population that in some way, greater and greater power may be had by those who know certain secrets that will reveal unto them procedures or techniques for gathering such power unto themselves. Many see the power of well-known figures, or the power that is spoken of in many of your holy works, and make connections between the events of your world and the events that seem to be quite beyond the mundane experience. It is felt by many that the life which is lived upon this planetary sphere is a life which prepares one for a greater life that shall become apparent when the Earthly life is finished. And yet, the power-filled nature of the creation and those who move within it continues to fascinate many who wish to feel not just a glimpse, shall we say, of such power, but wish to partake fully in it themselves. Thus, when speakings of greater and greater powers are heard, entities begin to connect these speakings with the feeling that such powers are available only to a few who have certain secrets revealed unto them.

Thus, the concept of the dark force that is embodied within speakings of the beast, as it is called, bring not only to the conscious mind images of the very nature of creation itself, but draw through the subconscious mind the faintly remembered connection that each entity has with the entire creative power of Love of the one Creator. The experience within your illusion for each entity is one in which there is in some form the attempt to reconcile the powers of Light and the powers of darkness in order that a unified perception of all the creation might be achieved. The darker expressions of power, being by their very nature secret and separate, seem more fascinating than the obvious brilliance and power of Light manifested as Love, and through such mysterious and secret fascination attract the attention of many, such as the latest gossip attracts the attention of those who speak over the backyard fence, shall we say. We apologize for the difficulty we have had in transmitting these concepts through this instrument, but we find that this instrument’s mind is somewhat furnished with information which prejudges that which we have to offer, and we have not been overly successful, shall we say, in providing a response to your query which we felt was possible. May we speak in any further fashion, my sister?

Carla asked: “Why is everybody so fascinated with the mark of the beast? I mean, people are anywhere in this culture. People from all different Christian and non-Christian viewpoints, very extreme, are actually interested in that.” Then Q’uo said we find that the simplicity of the query moved into an area which is not simple to provide an answer for, so the feeling for power and the ability to affect events and people fascinates many of your population, for your population exists within an illusion in which entities participate in the rituals of gathering wealth, position, and power of various kinds, yet it seems to many of your population that the gathering of power is an activity in which all wish to excel in some manner, whether the power be social, financial, religious or spiritual or simply the power over entities in one’s own family or neighborhood, so there is the feeling within many of your population that greater power may be had by those who know secrets that will reveal techniques for gathering power for themselves because many see the power of well-known figures, or the power that is spoken of in many of your holy works, and make connections between the events of your world and the events that seem beyond the mundane experience, for it is felt by many that the life which is lived upon this planetary sphere is a life which prepares one for a greater life that shall become apparent when the Earthly life is finished, yet the power-filled nature of the creation and those who move within it continues to fascinate many who wish to partake in it themselves, but when speakings of greater powers are heard, entities begin to connect these speakings with the feeling that such powers are available only to a few who have certain secrets revealed to them. Q’uo went on to say the concept of the dark force that is embodied within speakings of the beast bring not only to the conscious mind images of the nature of creation but draw through the subconscious mind the connection that each entity has with the creative power of the Love of the one Creator, so the experience within your illusion for each entity is one in which there is the attempt to reconcile the powers of Light and the powers of darkness in order that a unified perception of all the creation might be achieved, but the darker expressions of power, being secret and separate, seem more fascinating than the obvious brilliance and power of Light manifested as Love, and through such mysterious and secret fascination attract the attention of many, so we apologize for the difficulty we had in transmitting these concepts through this instrument, but we find that this instrument’s mind is furnished with information which prejudges that which we have to offer, and we have not been very successful in providing a response to your query which we felt was possible. On November 20, 1994, Q’uo said that we all are part of the Love of the one Creator:

Each of you is a portion of a greater family that moves within the illusion at this time, helping those that need help, inspiring those that are weary, and lending assistance to those who walk with difficulty. This is a grand illusion and a grand journey that you are upon, my friends. There are many adventures that await you and many moments that may disappoint you, but you may always take comfort in knowing that the Love of the one Creator resides in full in each but requires the smallest of need or inspiration to be kindled into flame.

Carla: No, I think you’re giving yourself a hard time. I was fascinated with that. Thank you very much.

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

[Pause]

I am Q’uo, and we wish to thank once again each present for inviting our presence in your circle of seeking this evening. We are greatly honored to be asked to speak our humble words to a group of seekers which is as faithful as those gathered here this evening. We wish to remind each that we offer but our opinions which are fallible and filled with error. Do not hesitate to leave those behind which do not ring true. At this time we shall take our leave of this group, thanking each once again for allowing us to join you. We are known to you as those of Q’uo. As always, we leave each in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

(Carla channeling)

I am Nona. I [intoned single tone held on vowel sound “I.”] greet you in the Love and in the Light of the One Who is All. I [musical tone on two notes] wish each of you to join with us in mind as we sing healing tones, for there is the need within this group at this time.

[Healing melody channeled through Carla.]

This morning the quote from The Infinite Way is: “Illumined consciousness dispels the personal sense of self with its problems, ills, age, and failures. It reveals the real Self, that I that I am, unlimited, unfettered, untroubled, harmonious, and free. This Selfhood is revealed as we retire within ourselves each day and there learn to listen and to watch. Likewise, instead of anxious care about the work of the day or the events of the future, we let the Soul, or our divine Spirit, go ahead of us to smooth and prepare the way; we let this divine Influence remain behind us to safeguard every step from the illusions of sense.

Illumined consciousness always knows that there is an infinite, all-powerful Presence prospering every act and blessing every thought. It knows that all who touch us on life’s highway must feel the benediction of our thought.

When consciousness is afire with Truth and Love, it destroys all sense of fear, doubt, hate, envy, disease, and discord, and the pure consciousness is felt by all whom we meet, and it lightens the load they carry. It is impossible to be “the light of the world” and not dispel the darkness of those about us.

Realize that all the good you experience is the shining forth of your own consciousness even when it appears to come from, or through some other individual. Recognize every evil appearance as a false perception of harmony and, therefore, not to be feared or hated, and this will result in the disappearance of the illusion and the showing forth of reality. Only illumined consciousness can look upon an evil appearance and perceive the divine reality. Only the Christ in consciousness can strip error of its seeming reality and rob it of it sting.

Spiritual illumination reveals that we are not mortal—not even human beings—but that we are pure spiritual beings, divine consciousness self-sustaining life, all-inclusive mind. This Light destroys the illusions of personal sense.”

Later this morning I went outside and picked up small tree limbs in the back yard. Then I filled of one garbage can and put it at the end of the driveway for yard waste pickup Thursday morning.

This afternoon I ran some errands with my first stop being at Feeder’s Supply where I bought some cat food. My second stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some food for myself. My third stop was at Speedway Gas Station where I filled Stanley’s gas tank with premium gasoline. My fourth stop was at Cleaning Concepts where I got my vacuum cleaner repaired. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I bought some super glue and a roll of duct tape.

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

June 29

Healing Unwellness

I am of the principle of the Spirit of the Love of Christ. I greet you in the holy name of Jesus the Christ.

Put your hand in front of your face. See the solidity, the careful architecture of its bones and tendons, its sinews, and the delicate covering which sheaths the mighty machine that can do so many, many things.

Gaze at the perfection of the weight-bearing feet which are constructed in such a way that all of the weight of a very large physical body may rest comfortably. And with healthy strides, distance may be eaten up.

Consider the grand and perfect functioning of each and every portion of your physical body and see the beauty of its design. And each time that you may feel the symptom of unwellness of any kind, recall that feeling of honor and pride in the perfection of the design of this body of yours and know that in each cell that perfection vibrates.

So, thinking upon the word of the Lord, Jesus Christ, remember the perfection of all things and allow the releasing of that which binds you to your unwellness.

We leave you in the peace and the Love of Jesus the Christ. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Laitos channeling for this session comes from February 11, 1987:

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are honored to be able to join your group this evening in order that those who are new to the service of vocal channeling may work upon that service and make it ever more fully a part of their own being and a portion of the way in which they are able to share that of inspiration with others about them. We commend each for giving careful consideration to this manner of service and for looking deeply within for those guideposts which point the inner direction and which reveal self to self, for this is the journey that you are upon, my friends. You are discovering ever greater portions of your own being and taking those discoveries as that which shall be the impetus for yet further journeying into the self, and by journeying into the self, discovering that one has a unique and intimate connection with all of the creation about one and with the one Creator, which through the power of It’s Love has set all of the creation in motion.

We thank each present for giving the most care possible in the consideration of how to approach the service of vocal channeling. We remind each that we are but your brothers and sisters who have moved somewhat further along upon the journey which you find yourselves traveling upon as well. We offer our opinions and what we have found to be of value in our own seeking to you freely with the hope that you will take that which is of service to you and leave behind that which has no value to you at this time. At this time we would attempt to make our contact known to the one known as W. Again, we remind this entity that it is helpful after the contact has been perceived and successfully challenged to refrain from analysis while the contact is ongoing in order that the channel which is open might remain open and be available for the transmission of thoughts.

In this intensive meditation session Laitos is speaking of how new instruments can learn the process of vocal channeling: Laitos began by saying we are honored to be able to join your group this evening in order that those who are new to the service of vocal channeling may work upon that service and make it more fully a part of their being and a portion of the way in which they are able to share inspiration with others, and we commend each for giving careful consideration to this manner of service and for looking deeply within for those guideposts which point the inner direction and which reveal self to self, for this is the journey that you are upon, for you are discovering greater portions of your being and taking those discoveries as that which shall be the energy for further journeying into the self and by journeying into the self, discovering that one has a unique and intimate connection with all of the creation about one and with the one Creator, which through the power of It’s Love has set all of the creation in motion. Laitos went on to say we remind each that we are your brothers and sisters who have moved somewhat further along the journey which you find yourselves traveling as well, and we offer our opinions and what we have found to be of value in our seeking to you with the hope that you will take that which is of service to you and leave behind that which has no value to you at this time, so at this time we would attempt to make our contact known to W, and we remind this entity that it is helpful after the contact has been perceived and successfully challenged to refrain from analysis while the contact is ongoing in order that the channel which is open might remain open and be available for the transmission of thoughts. On June 8, 1986, Yom spoke of the need for any vocal channeling to refrain from analysis of the thoughts being channeled through them:

I am Yom. We have instructed this instrument to refrain from analysis, and we feel we have better contact now, if the instrument can refrain from examining the words it receives. Unlike our fifth-density brothers and sisters, we do not have the ability to tune to a sufficiently narrow band of contact to enable this instrument to go deeply enough into meditation to lose the fear of speaking about that which it does not know. Therefore, the instrument must take conscious responsibility for being patient with us, as we give word by word which we would that you could hear this evening, as many in the group have an interest in the applications of that which is called Light.

We shall speak our identification and a few words in addition to that through the one known as W, if she will relax and speak our thoughts as she becomes aware of them. We shall transfer this contact at this time. I am Laitos.

(W channeling)

I am Laitos. This entity has successfully challenged and remains at our conditional level. It has succeeded in establishing a good channel. We are pleased with her efforts and are happy with her progress. I am Laitos.

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos, and am again with this instrument. Indeed, we are pleased that we have been able to make our contact known to the one known as W and we might suggest that the challenging which the one known as W has successfully accomplished be followed by the opening of the self to the degree that not only our identification be perceived, but that in the future experiences this entity consider allowing the channel to remain open for a longer period, even if there is no apparent communication occurring in order that we might begin to expand the abilities of this new instrument and introduce further concepts through this instrument. We are pleased with the progress which the one known as W has demonstrated and are hopeful that we might continue to strengthen the good contact which we feel with this new instrument.

At this time, if it is the desire of the one known as N, we shall make our contact known to this new instrument and shall simply attempt to speak our name through this new instrument in order that it might become familiar with our vibrations. Again, we remind this entity that after the challenge has been offered and successfully passed, that it might also refrain from analysis and simply speak our identification as it becomes apparent to her. We shall now transfer this contact. I am Laitos.

(N channeling)

I am Laitos. I greet you in Love and in Light. This entity is sleepy  as [inaudible] vocalizing our [inaudible] We leave this entity at this time and in [inaudible].

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos and am again with this instrument. We are very happy to have been able to make our contact known to the one known as N and to speak a few words through this new instrument. We apologize for any discomfort which the one known as N has experienced during our contact. We advise this new instrument to make a mental note of any adjustments which we might make in order to allow the one known as N to experience our contact in a more comfortable and stable manner. We are very pleased with the ability of the one known as N to perceive our contact. This new instrument has the potential to develop quite rapidly and, in this regard, we would suggest to the one known as N that the challenging is an especially important portion of this type of service in order that this new instrument be able to discern the nature of the contact which she is experiencing. At this time, we would open this session to queries which any present may find of value or of necessity in asking.

May we begin with a query at this time?

W: Laitos, my head feels as though it’s been pulled backward and is very impossible to move. Is this just a temporary discomfort or can you give me some explanation?

Carla: I would request, Laitos, that you adjust her.

I am Laitos, and we are making adjustments with our contact with the one known as W in order to relax the muscles of the neck, the upper shoulders and the rear of the skull. We might suggest to the one known as W, as we have suggested previously to the one known as N, that any discomfort in the experience of our contact be immediately noted so that we might make the necessary adjustments. We are not skillful at making new contacts which are immediately comfortable, for the blending of our vibration with yours requires that we be able to perceive your vibration in a stable manner and become as familiar with it as you are with ours. This takes practice and patience on both our parts and we welcome any mental requests for adjustment which any instrument might need. We would also suggest as a general rule that the ability to relax not only the mind but the physical vehicle as completely as possible prior to contact and especially during contact is most helpful. It is sometimes the new instrument’s stance, shall we say, that it prepares itself for contact in the same manner as one might prepare for a cold shower, shall we say, and brace the self in order to withstand contact. We would suggest that the relaxation of the physical vehicle through mental suggestion is most helpful to any instrument and most especially to those new instruments experiencing contact for the first time.

Is there a further query, my sister?

W: No, thank you.

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

N: Yes, Laitos, I have a few questions. First, when you were saying that she felt her head being pulled backwards, I felt a weight on my neck and head pulling me forward. I do not feel that that is discomfort as you call it. I feel that to me that is more of a sign that I have a contact with an entity. Is, as time progresses and I continue channeling, is this alleviated? Or should it be considered not good to have a pressure in my head?

I am Laitos, and we might suggest that this sign or indication of contact is just that, my sister, and is that sensation which is most helpful to you at this time in order that you are made aware that there is a contact which is about to occur and is, indeed, occurring. You, through your own level of comfort, may request that the indication be made more or less apparent. You will, through your own needs in future experiences, make this determination and through mental suggestion allow our contact then to become adjusted in whatever manner serves to both make you aware that the contact is available and to make you comfortable as well. There are many different ways in which new instruments may experience contact with our group, and we are happy to work with any manner of alerting a new instrument that has meaning to the new instrument.

May we speak further, my sister?

N: Yes. You’re saying you mean that perhaps if sitting in an upright position you have to strain to either to hold your back straight or your neck. Would it be okay for a channeling entity to perhaps lie on the floor and have the whole body relaxed?

I am Laitos, and though this holds promise for the relaxation of the physical vehicle and the removing of strain upon its various portions needed, as you have mentioned, in order to maintain a certain posture, it is not a position which we recommend for the new instrument, for it is a position which through years of experience one of the third density such as yourself has associated with the activity of sleeping and the tendency to move into the sleeping state in that position is somewhat pronounced. Thus, we would suggest for the new instrument that sitting in an upright position with the spine held reasonably erect is most helpful for the meditative state and the attempt to offer the service of vocal channeling through that meditative state.

May we speak further, my sister?

N: No, thank you very much. That’s what I’ve come upon.

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

N: As a matter of fact, I have another question. You were referring earlier to yourselves being our brothers and sisters which made me feel quite good and closer to you, seeing that you are like us. My question is, as in emotions of entities of the third density, do you experience emotions as we would, perhaps like happy, sad, jealous, emotions more I consider of our entities? I was just curious if you experienced the same type of emotions?

I am Laitos, and in our experience of the one Creator, we have greatly simplified the emotional complex so that the overriding emotion which comprises our experience is one which you may see as Love or compassion. It is our experience that all beings are a portion of the one Creator and this perception is aided greatly by having far fewer veils that hide the unity of all things from our sight and sense. Thus, it is ours to offer that called Love in as pure a fashion as is possible for us. We work with the refining of this Love or compassion at this time by attempting to imbue it in some degree with that quality which you might see…

[Tape ends.]

This morning the quote from The Infinite Way is: “Always there have appeared men bearing the divine message of the  presence of God and of the unreality of evil: Buddha of India; Lao-Tze of China; Jesus of Nazareth. These and many others brought the Light of Truth to people, and always people have interpreted this Light as the messenger, failing to see that what they were beholding as a person “out there” was the Light of Truth within their own consciousness.

In worshipping Jesus, people lost the Christ. In devotion to Jesus, people failed to apprehend the Christ. In seeking good through Jesus, people failed to find the omnipresent Christ in their own consciousness.

In every case, the messenger appearing to people is the advent of the Christ in individual consciousness, and when so understood, freedom from personal sense and personal limitation has been attained.

Jesus said, “If I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you.” Was this not clear enough for all to understand? If you do not look away from the personal sense of salvation, meditation, and guidance, you will not find the great Light within your own consciousness.

Spiritual illumination does not come from a person, but from the impersonal Christ, the universal Truth, the illumined consciousness of your Self.”

Later this morning I went outside to the fishpond, and I discovered that the fountain was only a few inches tall. So, I removed the netting (that I use to keep raccoons from eating my goldfish) in front of the skimmer and used a box cutter to cut the duct tape off of the motor and the tube that connects the motor to the tube that the fountain comes out of. Then I dried the motor and the tube that connects the motor to the tube that the fountain comes out of. Then I put Super Glue on the tube that goes into the motor. Then I put duct tape on the tube that connects the motor to the tube that the fountain comes out of. Then I put the motor back into the skimmer and turned the fountain on. After a few movements of the tube that the fountain comes out of, I was able to find the right height for the fountain, so that water did not splash out of the fishpond but landed in the left side of the skimmer. Then I replaced the netting on the front of the fishpond and felt glad that all is now well with the fountain.

This afternoon I drove an hour and a half to Mount Sterling, KY. where my neighbor is now in a care home. When I saw her in her room I asked her how she was doing; if she had any family visit her lately; and then I showed her some videos of deer eating the bird seed that I spread on her sidewalk across the street from my home, and I showed her another video of a buck deer, a doe, and a faun that were just getting into the front yard of her home. Then I showed her some pictures of my flower gardens and my cat, Mystical Joy. Then I asked her if she had any plans for the 4^th of July weekend since she used to have parties in her home every 4^th of July where her neighbors would have dinner that her housekeeper had made and then spend some time talking with each other. Before I left, I asked her if I could do anything to help her, and she said she would give me a call if she ever needed any help. Then I gave her a hug and told her that I loved her and drove back to my home.

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

Turn To The Creation

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

The faith of many has been destroyed by dependence upon the outer reality. The outer reality is as a room which no one may clean and no mop may scour. The eye of a person sees many broken things in the outer world and loses heart. Yet before the Spirit can flow through a life, first the heart must be turned to hope.

If hope cannot be found in outer things, then perhaps words have failed, and it is time for the seeker to turn in the direction of the creation to observe those things in the creation which one has not broken or crippled. The song of the bird, the movement of the breeze, and the beauty of sunsets and sunrises still express and manifest the glory and wonder of a perfect creation. When words fail, turn to those things which know not how to avoid manifesting the full consciousness of Love.

We leave you in love and peace, now and ever. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Q’uo channeling for this session comes from February 8, 1987:

What do you say to people who have cancer and are facing the possibility of death?

(Carla channeling)

I am Q’uo, and I greet you in the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator. It is a great privilege to be with you and to be called to offer our humble service during your meditation. We are honored that you choose to ask us questions which those who seek to know the truth would surely ask. It is good to share the vibratory energies of those who seek as we do the one Creator in each aspect. For we, as you, have no greeting but Love and Light, for there is no impulse but thought and no manifestation but Light. Yet few are those who may greet each other in the comradeship of shared seeking and under the banner of the one infinite Creator. And may we say to you that it is our opinion that it is the experience of dwelling in trust with those who are from elsewhere who yet share the same Creator, and they are the true center and have the true value that we have to offer as we answer your questions and that you have to offer as you ask them of us. For the trust we place in each other is a symbol of our attempt to grasp our unity, one with another and our common identification as the Creator.

The sharing of beingness and consciousness is, indeed, a powerful thing; and we take this opportunity to thank you; nor should you fear if your numbers are small and your meditation circle is not vast; or even if you sit alone. Yet still, if you know and claim the witness of unseen friends, the Light that you may raise in meditation is enormously powerful. We hope this has set up that which we wish to say about advice to those who must speak to cancer victims. My children, it is difficult to penetrate the illusion of life or death while living in such an artificially delicate and cumbersome mechanism as the physical vehicles which you enjoy during your Earthly experience. The nature of experience is interestingly mazed. Seemingly positive and happy experiences are oftentimes of little depth, times when thought processes are slowed and intellectual, spiritual, and physical senses dulled, whereas difficult times and crises, seemingly so appalling as experiences, often produce excitement, revivification of heart, and mind, and soul, rededication, and renewal of stewardship and service commitments.

When you receive the news of a known killer which has been found within your physical body, you are naturally going to spend an ocean of tears wept or unwept, a ton of words said and unsaid, railing against and being angry about the cessation of life. Yet in the crisis of possible death lies a tremendous opportunity for the rededication of the life. For news of a possible death is a creative disturbance, a freeing mechanism which allows the one experiencing it to consider a wider variety of options with more seriousness than when the entity thought they were perfectly healthy. There is an opportunity not to be afraid. There is the opportunity to turn into one who celebrates the life lived in the present moment. Such an entity, having found a center of joy and peace in the appreciation of many blessings, notes with keen accuracy the difficulties of the present moment without becoming discouraged because of the debit side of the balance sheet. Thus, refraining from dwelling upon possible futures, yet inspired by the possible future of depth to the amendment of the attitude at the present moment, the seeker who wishes to transform the experience of cancer may begin by affirming and celebrating each day as it awakens. This is not an exercise to use merely during periods of potential death. It is an exercise for life, not for death, for each day may be lived far more fully and with far more enjoyment and freedom, spontaneity, and humor than most among your peoples are able to manifest. For the negative emotions and blockages color and bias the experience in negative ways. Any entity may choose to begin to shape the life experience for the self and by so choosing may become a more and more polarized entity.

The group question for this session was: “What do you say to people who have cancer and are facing the possibility of death?” Q’uo began by saying the sharing of consciousness is a powerful thing, and if you know and claim the witness of unseen friends, the Light that you may raise in meditation is powerful, so we hope this has set up that which we wish to say about advice to those who must speak to cancer victims, for it is difficult to penetrate the illusion of life or death while living in such an artificially delicate and cumbersome mechanism as the physical vehicles which you enjoy during your Earthly experience since the nature of experience is a puzzle where happy experiences are often of little depth, and times when intellectual, spiritual, and physical senses are dulled, whereas difficult times and crises often produce enlivening of heart, mind, and soul and renewal of service commitments. Then Q’uo said when you receive the news of a known killer which has been found within your physical body, you are going to spend an ocean of tears and a ton of words being angry about the end of life, yet in the crisis of possible death lies an opportunity for the rededication of the life, for news of a possible death is a freeing mechanism which allows the one experiencing it to consider a wider variety of options with more seriousness than when the entity thought they were perfectly healthy, and there is an opportunity not to be afraid and to turn into one who celebrates the life lived in the present moment, for such an entity, having found a center of joy and peace in the appreciation of many blessings, notes with accuracy the difficulties of the present moment without becoming discouraged because of the debit side of the balance sheet, so  inspired by the possible future of depth to the amendment of the attitude at the present moment, the seeker who wishes to transform the experience of cancer may begin by celebrating each day as it awakens, and this is an exercise for life, not for death, for each day may be lived more fully and with more freedom and humor than most among your people are able to manifest, for negative emotions and blockages bias the experience in negative ways, and any entity may choose to begin to shape the life experience for the self and by so choosing may become a more positively polarized entity. On April 12, 1992, Q’uo spoke about how we can transform the experience of our life:

Now, those who rush through an agenda, crossing things off the list of the day, may well not be very aware of the mundane or metaphysical wind. Thus, they may well cut themselves off from the dance that enlivens the rhythm that blesses and makes spontaneous and joyful the thoughts and the actions of each moment. If one stands ignorant of the wind, gazing only at the compass and saying doggedly, “This I shall do now, then this, one step then another; I shall go north, I shall always go north, I have my compass and I shall go north,” one shall not go long before one runs into a tree or some wind of destiny that, if caught, if heard, if felt, could, indeed, transform the experience—not from the level of the bio-program, but from the level of the meta-program, that deep program within each entity which has to do with the unique patterns of one individual who has a spark of the infinite Creator within, and thus is set upon a lodestar that cannot be seen by the self or any other, but must, indeed, exist awaiting that moment when the wind of destiny does, indeed, cross the path.

We turn to look at some practical matters. We realize that, as we scan this instrument, we look at two providers whose families are dependent upon money earned by one potentially not able to provide. We would speak to those who fear that there is not a plentiousness of all things—the remembrance of friends, strangers who smile, individuals who unpredictably but generously may aid an unknown person. It is well to put one’s thoughts not on the lacks of one’s incarnation, especially when these lacks are beyond one’s control, but to focus one’s interest and energy upon the assets of the same situation. If one needs not worry about money beyond a certain point, in other words, if one values one’s life and feels that the environment of the livelihood has contributed to the illness, then it is time to use the creative energy of difficult situations to view the needs, the true needs of the social unit of which the entity is a part. It is well to meditate and find out for the self whether the lesson is to stay and learn to Love or to move towards a greater Love and faith, but with small practical and earthly expectations.

We are not those who advise reckless moves for the sake of testing the faith, yet deep within each entity there lies a sure knowledge of the rightness of each step of the life plan. Within each at this moment lies a knowledge that the entity is on the path which has been set or not. To arrive at contact with that level of self-awareness is a blessing and it is usually earned. You must seek to know yourself as if you truly and honestly like and respect yourself. You cannot plunder the self anymore than you would insult a high priestess. In each other area of practical earthly endeavor, think, meditate, and discuss with the family unit which you have made those things which are for and not for you. And then, when the thinking has been done, the centering, and the clearing, and the grasping of the feelings of the self have been accomplished, put aside the consciousness of the dying, and realize that that which is in a disease such as cancer is allowed because your emotional and mental complex were not able to Love and, instead, blocked Love in some situation. This is a mechanical rather than a judgmental description and refers to the fact that illness in general results when the body reacts to a loss of electrical and chemical balance within the body complex. The body then, as manifesting illness, is attempting to heal itself and so-called illness is, indeed, a process of health by positive and affirmative attention to the present moment the many blessings which are experienced in that moment and both the wonder and the terrible mystery of life and death.

Q’uo went on to say as we scan this instrument, we look at two providers whose families are dependent upon money earned by one potentially not able to provide, and we would speak to those who fear that there is not an availability of all things: the remembrance of friends, strangers who smile, individuals who unpredictably but generously may aid an unknown person, so it is well to put one’s thoughts not on the lacks of one’s incarnation, especially when these lacks are beyond one’s control, but to focus one’s interest upon the assets of the same situation, for if one values one’s life and feels that the environment of the livelihood has contributed to the illness, then it is time to use the creative energy of difficult situations to view the true needs of the social unit of which the entity is a part, so it is well to meditate and find out whether the lesson is to stay and learn to Love or to move towards a greater Love and faith but with small practical expectations. Q’uo continued by saying we are not those who advise reckless moves for the sake of testing faith, yet deep within each entity there lies a knowledge of the rightness of each step of the life plan, and within each at this moment lies a knowledge that the entity is on the path which has been set or has not been set, for to arrive at contact with that level of self-awareness is a blessing, and it is usually earned, so you must seek to know yourself as if you truly respect yourself, but you cannot plunder the self anymore than you would insult a high priestess, so in each other area of practical earthly endeavor, think, meditate, and discuss with your family unit those things which are for you and not for you, and when the thinking has been done put aside the consciousness of dying, and realize that which is in a disease such as cancer is allowed because your emotional and mental complex were not able to Love, and they blocked Love in some situation, for this is a mechanical rather than a judgmental description and refers to the fact that illness results when the body reacts to a loss of electrical and chemical balance within the body complex, so the body that is manifesting illness is attempting to heal itself and is a process of health by affirmative attention to the present moment of the many blessings which are experienced in that moment and both the wonder and the terrible mystery of life and death. On October 12, 1986, Latwii described the nature of the present moment:

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

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

One may transform the experience of serious illness into the beginning of a new consciousness, one which is closer to that which may be held within the illusion you now enjoy and after you leave that same illusion. Would you wish to change personalities because you change bodies? Or would you prefer to be more and more truly yourself, more and more fully a manifestation of the truth about yourself, more and more an opening through which the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator shine forth, not to impress, but to make joyful? Perhaps we have rambled a bit this evening, my children. At times it was necessary that we say a few things quickly through this instrument that we might keep her at an appropriate level. We thank you for your patience, and it is our hope that each may see the centrality of affirming and celebrating the Creator in the self and the self in the Creator. Who each of us is, is hidden complete in who the Creator is and the truth of us is the truth of the Creator.

Let us all turn then to that great Light that shines in the darkness of ignorance and chaos which is much of the illusion about you and seize hold of the central search. Life and death mean very little compared to the song of the present, for to breathe is to sing. Each soft rustle of inhalation and exhalation makes a melody in the ether of creation and sends motes of Light in millions of directions with each breath, moving and moving the particles of Light. Each intentional prayer is a lovely song and each silence a poem. Who you are is not how you feel, what the condition of your body is, what your bank account is, or where you live. More deep ties are those of family, friend, and companion. Yet in the end, the seeker stands alone with the truth, and each seeker is as infinitely great and potentially infinitely impeccable as that great warrior, the creation Itself.

Q’uo continued by saying one may transform the experience of serious illness into the beginning of a new consciousness, one which is closer to that which may be held within the illusion you now enjoy and after you leave that same illusion, so: “Would you wish to change personalities because you change bodies? Or would you prefer to be more truly yourself, more fully a manifestation of the truth about yourself, more of an opening through which the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator shines forth, not to impress, but to make joyful?”  Then Q’uo said we have rambled a bit this evening because at times it was necessary that we say a few things quickly through Carla so we might keep her at an appropriate level, and we thank you for your patience, so it is our hope that each may see the importance of celebrating the Creator in the self and the self in the Creator, for who each of us is, is hidden in who the Creator is and the truth of us is the truth of the Creator. Q’uo continued by saying let us all turn to that great Light that shines in the darkness of ignorance and chaos which is much of the illusion about you and seize hold of the search since life and death mean little compared to the song of the present, for to breathe is to sing, and each soft rustle of inhalation and exhalation makes a melody in the ether of creation and sends sparks of Light in millions of directions with each breath moving the particles of Light, and each prayer is a lovely song and each silence a poem, but who you are is not how you feel, what the condition of your body is, or where you live, so deep ties are those of family, friend, and companion, yet in the end the seeker stands alone with the truth, and each seeker is as infinitely great and impeccable as that great warrior, the Creation Itself. On August 9, 1978, Hatonn spoke of the nature of that great Light:

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.

We are those of Q’uo, and we humbly thank you for having asked us to be with you this evening. We leave our blessing and Love with each and with each about whom questions were asked and, as always, that it be understood that we are not infallible. We would attempt to open the group to questions and shall transfer to the one known as Jim. We leave this instrument with thanks and in Love and Light. I am Q’uo.

(Jim channeling)

I am Q’uo and greet each again in Love and Light through this instrument. We would at this time be honored to respond to those queries which those present may have for us. May we begin with a query?

J: Is it not true that before our incarnation into this life that we choose our own death, and it could be the case that we would use cancer or some other illness as the means of our death?

I am Q’uo, and we might suggest, my brother, that there are correctnesses and incorrectnesses in the assumptions which you have made. We shall attempt to speak to this topic. It is true that those who are aware of the process of incarnation and its purpose, due to a conscious discovery of this incarnative process during an incarnation, take a more complete role in the planning of the incarnation which is to come before the incarnation. The framework for attempting certain lessons that will enrich an entity as a whole is determined as are those services which might be shared as fruit of the effort of learning with others. There are many possibilities for each incarnation in these two general realms of endeavor, that of learning and that of serving. Because free will is paramount within the incarnation, and, indeed, before, the planning must take a general form with many potential specific aspects, be they events or entities, programmed, shall we say, as possibilities and perhaps even probabilities. Many are dependent upon other choices and agreements made between entities for various times and purposes, thus there is much that is fluid and flexible, shall we say, within any incarnation that will allow for the learning of the lessons and the offering of the services.

That graduation, shall we say, from the incarnation that is called the death, in many instances is the subject of just such planning, which is to say, there is a variety of possibilities for each entity that may occur according to the completing of the overall plan for the incarnation in a more or less successful fashion. It may be said that the lessons shall continue for any entity within an incarnation until their weight grows too heavy, at which time the entity shall have planned for one means of bringing the incarnation to its culmination. This general means of ending the incarnation may be seen as a continuing effort to gain in the polarization in consciousness which has been chosen, thus when an entity is more successful, shall we say, in the overall plan and has achieved much of that which was laid out before the incarnation, it may be that one or more potential death, as you call them, experiences are presented to the entity who by its efficiency in continuing to utilize the catalyst may yet continue within the incarnation by successfully utilizing the catalyst which could have brought about that termination of the incarnation called death.

J asked: “Is it not true that before our incarnation into this life that we choose our own death, and it could be the case that we would use cancer or some other illness as the means of our death?” Q’uo replied by saying we shall attempt to speak to this topic, and it is true that those who are aware of the process of incarnation and its purpose, due to a conscious discovery of this incarnative process during an incarnation, take a complete role in the planning of the incarnation which is to come before the incarnation, so the framework for attempting certain lessons that will enrich an entity is determined as are those services which might be shared as fruit of the effort of learning with others, for there are many possibilities for each incarnation in these two realms of endeavor, that of learning and that of serving because free will is paramount within the incarnation, and the planning must take a general form with many specific aspects, be they events or entities, programmed as possibilities and probabilities, so many are dependent upon other agreements made between entities for various times and purposes, yet there is much that is flexible within any incarnation that will allow for learning the lessons and offering the services. Q’uo continued by saying that graduation from the incarnation that is called the death is the subject of such planning, and there is a variety of possibilities for each entity that may occur according to the completing of the plan for the incarnation, for it may be said that the lessons shall continue for any entity within an incarnation until their weight grows too heavy, at which time they shall have planned for one means of bringing the incarnation to its end, and the way of ending the incarnation may be seen as a continuing effort to gain in the polarization in consciousness which has been chosen, thus when an entity is more successful in the overall plan and has achieved much of that which was laid out before the incarnation, it may be that one or more potential death experiences are presented to the entity who, by its efficiency in continuing to utilize the catalyst, may continue within the incarnation by utilizing the catalyst which could have brought about that termination of the incarnation called death. On December 7, 1982, Latwii spoke of different ways that we can look at death:

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.

However, it may be that an entity finds some difficulty within some portion of the incarnation, perhaps through attempting to learn too rapidly certain lessons, and may take advantage of an earlier potential terminating of the incarnation through specifically planned catalyst which when unsuccessfully processed, may result in that which you call a disease and which then might end the incarnation. Each disease, as you call them, is a symbolic representation for a certain entity or perhaps a grouping of entities, of a certain kind of lesson, thus the ending of the incarnation shall come for each within your third-density illusion. Yet the ending is not necessarily that which has been chosen to unfold in one fashion only and one time only and by one means only, yet may be that which is possible after a certain point and may be possible in a continuing fashion according to the entity’s ability to continue to process the catalyst which it has provided for itself within the incarnation.

Then Q’uo said it may be that an entity finds difficulty within some portion of the incarnation through attempting to learn lessons too rapidly and may take advantage of an earlier potential in terminating the incarnation through planned catalyst which, when unsuccessfully processed, may result in disease which might end the incarnation as each disease is a symbolic representation of a certain kind of lesson for a certain entity or a grouping of entities, thus the ending of the incarnation shall come for each within your third-density illusion, yet the ending is not that which has been chosen to unfold at one time only, and by one means only, yet it may be possible in a continuing fashion according to the entity’s ability to continue to process the catalyst which it has provided for itself within the incarnation. On September 17, 1995, Q’uo spoke of how the use of catalyst well can aid one in leaving the incarnation:

The one known as Chocolate Bar, as all things in this illusion, has utilized its catalyst well and now approaches the removing of the garment of this incarnational experience, the physical vehicle which begins to deteriorate and to indicate to all who observe the ending of the incarnation. The giving of Love to this entity and the rejoicing in its presence is that which is always most helpful, whether the entity chooses to remain or to go further upon its path.

May we speak further, my brother?

J: Thank you for that answer. Why is it that some cultures on this planet are virtually free of the disease known as cancer?

I am Q’uo, and we find that this disease is one which is late to join the experience of your people upon this planetary sphere and, being of recent influence, has found its first roots within those cultures which are of a more individualized nature, shall we say. By this we mean that those entities which comprise the cultures which are most susceptible to utilizing this disease are those cultures in which the identity of the individual is more firmly fixed and exercised, so that the relationships which develop from such strongly characterized traits that form the personal identity are those relationships which partake less fully of cultural, or tribal, or primitive traditions and more fully of those situations in which emotional exercise, shall we say, is determined and amplified by individual choice. Thus, the difficulties, as you call them, which bring about the heated feelings of anger and the venting of that emotion in an uncontrolled fashion and the failure to heal those wounds which it brings about are those conditions which are most salubrious for the fostering of the condition which you call cancer.

May we speak further, my brother?

J: No, that’s all the questions that I have for now. Thank you.

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

Carla: Thank you, no questions tonight, Q’uo. Nice to hear your voice.

I am Q’uo, and we are most grateful to those present for inviting our presence. We greatly enjoy the opportunity to join with this group and to speak our humble words, and we hope that we have been able to provide some small insight into those mysteries which are so great a portion of the illusion in which you find yourselves moving ever onward in the seeking of the one Creator. We shall be with you in what you call your future and look forward to each such sharing. We shall leave this group at this time, rejoicing always in the unity of thought which binds each seeker of truth. We are known to you as those of Q’uo, and we leave you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning the quote from The Infinite Way is: “The pleasures and successes of the world are as nothing compared with the joys and treasures which now unfold to us through spiritual sense. In the light of truth, the greatest earthly happiness and triumph are as nothing, whereas the treasures of Soul have a glory unknown and unfathomed by sense.

Possessing the divine Light within people gains their freedom from the world and security from all earthly or human dangers. This period holds terrors and fears for many. The spiritually illumined will recognize that because no good can come or go, that because spiritual activity is always of the nature of fulfillment, that because their illumination has revealed the reality of things, they are anchored in Soul, in God-consciousness, in spiritual peace, security, and serenity.

We will fear no change in the outer picture because the outer is but the reflection of the allness within. Safe in the realization that we are individual though infinite spiritual consciousness embodying all good, we need give no consideration to the evidence of the senses.

Spiritual illumination reveals the harmony of being and dispels the evidence of material sense. It does not change anything in the universe, for this is a spiritual universe peopled with children of God, but the illumination changes our concept of the universe.

This is but the beginning of this vast subject, and while we are discussing it, let us keep thought removed as far as possible from the world of sense and anchored in the conscious awareness of spiritual reality.”

This afternoon I went on an errand run with my first stop being at Feeder’s Supply where I bought some cat food and some bird seed. My second stop was at PNC Bank where I made a cash withdrawal. My third stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some food for myself. My last stop was at Speedway Gas Station where I put 32 psi of compressed air in Stanley’s tires. When I got home, I cut some netting into two pieces of about 20’ x 3’, and then I put the two pieces of netting on top the Coleus Flowers that are growing around the giant Sycamore Tree in my backyard to keep the deer from eating any more of them. Then I put some tree limbs that fell in my backyard, and in my neighbor’s driveway, into a garbage can, and then I put the garbage can at the end of the driveway close to the road.

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

June 27

The Myth Of Reality

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

The myth of reality continues every moment, and you who experience this myth are hard put to see through it. Reality lies beneath the surface of outer things and beyond the meaning of minds and words. Reality is the province of the Spirit of Love. It is an invisible reality which can only manifest shadows of itself within the outer world.

As you seek to make your life more real, seek within in the innermost portion of your being, for in that stronghold the Spirit of Love holds full sway when given the opportunity.

Look, too, beyond the surface of the outer world into the realm of the beauty of meaning which lies behind what the senses may have you feel. For the Spirit is everywhere immanent, yet never fully disclosed unless one has the desire to see and hear reality.

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

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Laitos channeling comes from February 4, 1987:

(Carla channeling)

I am Laitos, and I greet you in the Love and in the Light of our infinite Creator. It is a privilege and a blessing to be called to this meditation that we may offer our service of working with new instruments that they more and more fulfill their desire to be of service to the infinite Creator and to Its reflections upon your sphere, the other human beings. The service of vocal channeling is one among many, and we encourage each to evaluate it not only for the comfort with which each may offer this service, but also in terms of an honest opinion as to its relative degree of service, for there are many, many ways to be of service in a creation of Love of which you are a part.

Love has many faces. And though the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator comes always in the name of Love and through the manifestations of Light, yet, nevertheless, we value and treasure each new instrument whose mind and heart we may utilize of its many treasures of experience and previous knowledge. For our message is so simple as to go almost inevitably unnoticed and ignored, for all we have to offer is our opinion and belief that the Creator is all that there is, that each is the Creator, and thus all who dwell in the creation are not only part of the Creator, but a holographic representation or miniature of the Creator, thus becoming co-Creators with the Creator. The unity of all things suggests many pleasant conditions which should be prevalent among all people, yet you will find that the value of channeled information in general is that it looks at the illusion of your experience with an eye which sees beyond the experience to the reality which lies behind the illusion, for it is our opinion that most of a life experience of an entity which dwells in your density consists in those things which are not visible to the eye.

In this intensive channeling session those of Laitos spoke of the service of learning the practice of vocal channeling. Laitos began by saying it is a blessing to be called to this meditation that we may offer our service of working with new instruments as they fulfill their desire to be of service to the infinite Creator and to Its reflections of the human beings upon your sphere, for the service of vocal channeling is one among many services, and we encourage each to evaluate it, not only for the comfort with which each may offer this service, but also in terms of an honest opinion as to its relative degree of service, for there are many ways to be of service in a creation of Love of which you are a part. Laitos went on to say Love has many faces, and though the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator comes in the name of Love and through the manifestations of Light, yet we treasure each new instrument whose mind and heart we may utilize of its many treasures of experience, for our message is so simple as to go almost unnoticed, so all we have to offer is our opinion that the Creator is all that there is, that all who dwell in the creation are not only part of the Creator but a miniature of the Creator, thus becoming co-Creators with the Creator, so the unity of all things suggests many pleasant conditions which should be significant among all people, yet you will find that the value of channeled information in general is that it looks at the illusion of your experience with an eye which sees beyond the experience to the reality which lies behind the illusion, for it is our opinion that most of a life experience of an entity which dwells in your density consists in those things which are not visible to the eye. On June 18, 2005, Q’uo said that we all are co-Creators:

We realize that you are young spirits. You are young co-Creators. And yet the power to create is yours. That which you forgive is forgiven. That which you lift is lifted. That which you reach forth to heal is healed. It is difficult to take ultimate responsibility for Christhood. And yet we say to each of you, that individuality that you see as yourself, that which you say is “I,” is an illusion. The personality shell that you experience is very helpful for working within the field of Earth, for doing what you came to do, living, and breathing, and being, and blooming. Yet it is not all of you. It is not the earth of you. And as you ask again and again, “In each day, create me to see who I am, help me to realize my true nature,” you are opening the way, little by little, to begin to feel that essence, that “I” that is the consciousness of Love.

We have been working with each to attempt to make as comfortable a connection as possible with each of you and would request that any experience of discomfort of any kind be mentally noted at once so that we may work to remove whatever the problem may be. Do not let a stiff neck or an odd position cause discomfort when the request will bring adjustment. It is not necessary to make the request in the manner this instrument is speaking. A mentally projected thought is all that is necessary. We are concerned as we begin working with each that each realize that we are as you, seekers after truth, Lovers after Love. Our eye is fixed upon the ultimate, thus we are enveloped and fascinated by mystery. We do not know the truth but have only approximated our opinion as to some of the truth’s characteristics. Our words are not meant to be stumbling blocks or replacements for other beliefs, and if anything which we have to offer is unwanted, we ask that it be rejected without further thought. We wish only to serve.

We ask that the one known as N to continue tuning, for we are having difficulty sustaining a contact with this instrument. If the instrument would cease observing and analyzing and, for the duration of this experiment, merely react as seems appropriate, the difference in the concentration level would be great, and we would be far more easily able to make suggestions of concepts which need to be transmitted at any given moment. We make the same request of the one known as W, noting that this instrument is at a more calm level but there is always the tendency to analyze within any channel, and this instrument is all too aware of the difficult influences that analysis can create within the service of channeling. Thus, we ask that the one known as W also attempt a more automatic and non-thinking attitude for the experiment, realizing of course that discrimination is very important and that there shall be time after the experience thoroughly to assimilate and gauge it.

Latois went on to say we have been working with each to attempt to make as comfortable a connection as possible with each of you and would request that any experience of discomfort be mentally noted, so that we may work to remove whatever the problem may be, but do not let a stiff neck or an odd position cause discomfort when the request will bring adjustment, yet it is not necessary to make the request in the manner this instrument is speaking since a mentally projected thought is all that is necessary, and we are concerned as we begin working with each that each realize that we are as you, seekers after truth, for our eye is fixed upon the ultimate and fascinated by mystery, but we do not know the truth but have only our opinion as to some of the truth’s characteristics, and our words are not meant to be stumbling blocks, and if anything which we have to offer is unwanted, we ask that it be rejected without further thought, for we wish only to serve. Laitos continued by saying we ask N to continue tuning, for we are having difficulty sustaining a contact with this instrument, and if the instrument would cease analyzing and react as seems appropriate, the difference in the concentration level would be great, and we would be more able to make suggestions of concepts which need to be transmitted at any moment, and we make the same request of W, noting that this instrument is at a calmer level, but there is the tendency to analyze within any channel, for this instrument is aware of the difficult influences that analysis can create within the service of channeling, so we ask that W also attempt non-thinking attitude for the experiment, realizing that discrimination is important, and that there shall be time after the experience to think about it. On August 5, 1987, Hatonn suggested that instruments cease analyzing the concepts they are channeling:

Channeling becomes, then, one way to experience an improved meditation, for when the channel is busy listening for the next concept, the mind is stayed upon that point, becoming one large receiver. When we ask instruments to cease analyzing and relax, we are asking, basically, that the inner ear be turned on, and that a continuing attention be paid to it. This is, in brief, a satisfactory definition of meditation, for when the conscious mind is turned down and the inner ear listens, then it is that the Creator speaks in whatever way is creative at that time and place.

What a new instrument is engaged in is creativity. A channel produces out of nothing a something which, it is hoped, will be beautiful, inspiring, or useful, or perhaps all of those. Creating beauty, creating the feelings associated with divine Love, is one great purpose of the existence of all consciousness, and the vocal channeling is one way of achieving the creative act which expresses the trust and Love that each feels for that great Love which is the Creator.

We shall begin with a period of attempting to make our name known to the one known as W. If the instrument will relax and refrain from analyzing, we shall at this time transfer contact to the one known as W. I am Laitos.

[Pause]

(Carla channeling)

I am Laitos. We thank the one known as W for working with us and would attempt once again to speak with this instrument clearly enough that this instrument may conceptualize and repeat the name by which we are known to those among your people. We feel that we are making good progress in achieving a stable and comfortable contact and are sorry about the minor difficulties. We are working to make the experience a comfortable one. We thank the entity for attempting the challenge and encourage the one known as W in the fearless use of its own ideals. We now transfer in love and light to the one known as W. I am Laitos.

(Wendy channeling)

I am Laitos. [Inaudible] I am Laitos.

I am Laitos and greet you once again in Love and Light and great joy, for we have a good contact with the instrument known as W and are most grateful to this entity for allowing us to work with her. We realize there are many metaphysical side-effects, shall we say, which may result, and thus we do not attempt to repeat this experience any more than we would give two overdoses of a strong drug in one session. One will do. We can only assure the one known as W that the experience which comes from releasing a portion of the self to an opening in which the contact can be made will be mitigated by experience and time so that it will no longer seem like an incredible rush, but will merely be a settling in of a comfortable and established relationship between two personalities who love each other and respect each other.

We now turn to the one known as N. We thank the one known as N for working upon the meditative state. This entity has a great deal of capability in this area and is in a partial state of meditation often. However, it is not as comfortable with the terminology of meditation, shall we say, as the experience itself. We encourage one known as N to think of this state as one of free joyfulness, a joyfulness that does not demand any results, but merely exists for its own state. This joyful spirit which we experience in the one known as N shall surely be an entity which has the potential for a stable service and we welcome this opportunity to work with this new instrument.

Again, we request that the one known as N lay down the tools of discrimination and thought and become the listening ear hearing in silence those thoughts too deep for words, which yet echo somehow within the consciousness. It is not in our control to compartmentalize the contact in such a way that we can know for all people what experiences shall occur with contact. We do not know how each new instrument will perceive our thoughts. The beginning instrument is not predictable. Thus, we cannot tell you to listen for a voice or to recognize a presence but can only say that whatever thought occurs immediately after the contact has been recognized and challenged is to be spoken forth without thought. Thought is left at the threshold of the contact after challenging and is picked up in all of its discriminative power upon the surcease of that same channeling. During the channeling the instrument is just that. Portions of the instrument’s mind, opinions and heart are used to form the contact, yet the contact is a creation of cooperation, offering something that neither we nor the instrument could offer by ourselves. The instrument’s position then is one of passive yet anticipatory readiness. Thus, we ask the one known as N to put aside thought, refrain from analysis, and allow us to speak our simple identification through her instrument. We shall greet the one known as N as we leave this instrument. I am Laitos.

(Nancy channeling)

I am Laitos. We greet you entities. This instrument wants to share of her knowledge with the entities on your planet. She had contact before her regression trance and was not aware of that experience. I will leave this entity so as not to overstress her. This entity is known as N. I leave you entities. I am Laitos.

(Carla channeling)

I am Laitos, and greet you once again in the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. Before we transfer to the one known as Jim, we would speak briefly through this instrument upon the subject of challenging. This instrument is fond of saying that it is a crowded universe and the one known as N has had an experience with a crowd other than the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator. It is salutary that such has occurred to this excellent instrument so that the point may be made that in challenging lies the strength of the instrument’s ability to discriminate between possible sources of information. The use of a name is either magical or non-magical. It is difficult for most entities to repeat a magical name that does not belong to them. however, it is by non-magical names that almost all contacts are known among your people, and this is certainly true among the Confederation of Planets. For we do not wish to use words of power unless the situation requires it. The names by which we are known to you, therefore, are not acceptable in and of themselves, for they may be repeated by others who are not of the Confederation of Planets. Given the negative polarities’ perceived virtue in lying, it is a powerful aid to a negatively oriented entity to be accepted as an entity it is not.

There are signs for which one may watch. When one is evaluating the usefulness and worth of information which has been channeled, one characteristic of mixed contact, that is negatively oriented entities which channel using a positive name, is the tendency to make a personal connection with the channel and so make the channel feel more and more important. This occurred during the particular communication which the one known as N experienced. However, there are positively oriented contacts which have had personal contact by thought or thought form with a channel, thus far better it is to rely heavily upon the challenging and only after a declaration has been accepted and agreed upon can the channeling be done in the most confident and trusting manner.

Now Laitos spoke of the process of challenging contacts that all vocal instruments must do. Laitos said before we transfer to Jim, we would speak through Carla on the subject of challenging, for she is fond of saying that it is a crowded universe, and N had an experience with a crowd other than the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator, and it is helpful that such has occurred to this excellent instrument so that the point may be made that in challenging lies the strength of the instrument’s ability to discriminate between possible sources of information, so the use of a name is either magical or non-magical, but it is difficult for most entities to repeat a magical name that does not belong to them, yet it is by non-magical names that almost all contacts are known among your people, and this is true among the Confederation of Planets, for we do not wish to use words of power unless the situation requires it, so the names by which we are known to you are not acceptable in and of themselves, for they may be repeated by others who are not of the Confederation of Planets, so given the negative polarities’ perceived virtue in lying, it is a powerful aid to a negatively oriented entity to be accepted as an entity it is not. Now Q’uo said there are signs for which one may watch when one is evaluating the worth of information which has been channeled, and one characteristic of mixed contact, that is negatively oriented entities which channel using a positive name, is the tendency to make a personal connection with the channel and make the channel feel important, and this occurred during the communication which N experienced, but there are positively oriented contacts which have had personal contact by thought with a channel, so it is better to rely upon the challenging, and only after a declaration has been accepted and agreed upon can the channeling be done in the most trusting manner. On October 24, 1982, Latwii described the need for challenging any contact that the vocal channels may channel:

What you might do to insure positive contact in future sessions is precisely the same as what any instrument might do, that is, the challenging of any contact by whatever means has meaning to you, whether it be in the name of Jesus Christ, in the name of the Christ consciousness, in the name of the service-to-others polarity, or by whatever means carries weight within your perception. Therefore, let this means be used so that each instrument at each sensing of contact might then challenge that contact and continue the challenging until a firm response in the positive polarity has been received. This may take some small portion of what you call time, but if you will pursue this general suggestion, you may rest assured that only the positive polarity entities will remain to use your instrument.

We would at this time transfer to the one known as Jim. Without first giving thanks to the ones known as W and N, we could not leave this instrument, for it has been a marvelous experience for us and we feel very blessed to have been able to share Love and meditation with each of you and with this instrument. We now transfer to the one known as Jim. I am Laitos.

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos and greet each of you again in Love and Light through this instrument. At this time, it is our privilege to offer ourselves in the capacity of attempting to answer those queries which may be upon the minds of those present. Therefore, may we ask if there might be a query with which we might begin?

N: Yes, Laitos. It was a most incredible experience. I felt like I was in touch with the same feeling I had when the entity known as Jim was trans…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Laitos and am again with this instrument. We apologize for the delay, but this instrument found the necessity of reinstituting the challenging after completing its duties with the recording device. My sister, we are aware of the feelings which you have experienced in the just previous contact and in the hypnotic regression of which you spoke, and we might suggest that to the entity first experiencing a contact with what you might call discarnate beings, beings of thought, that this kind of contact is of such an initially profound nature that all such contact may seem similar upon first examination. We might suggest that the experience of the hypnotic regression was an experience during which you were able to move into deeper levels of your own being and experience there the resources of your deeper mind which are available upon request when there is a need for your understanding in a specific area relating to your own growth and evolution. These resources are quite similar to what you may experience and have, indeed, experienced through a contact with beings residing within the world of thought and which seem to be quite exterior to your own self.

However, we might suggest that the means by which you may discriminate between these kinds of experiences is that which we suggested by the reexamination of the challenging technique. The gathering of the self about an ideal or principle for which one lives in a fundamental sense, and would, indeed, give the life if necessary, is the beginning of this principle and its exercise when contact with thought entities is noticed and felt. Then it is necessary to speak in the strongest mental terms to such perceived contacts and to challenge them with the full force of your belief and the core of your being in order that those of the positive nature may be discerned from those of a negative nature, and the nature which might attempt to trick or confuse a contact in any way. Thus, we might suggest that contemplation and meditation upon the core ideal, by which you shall in future times challenge such contacts, be instituted upon a regular basis in order that you may increase your ability to discriminate between contacts in what you would call your future.

Now Laitos responded to N’s experience with being hypnotically regressed. Laitos began by saying we are aware of the feelings which you have experienced in the previous contact and in the hypnotic regression of which you spoke, and we suggest that to the entity first experiencing a contact with discarnate beings of thought, that this kind of contact is of such a profound nature that all such contact may seem similar upon first examination,  but we suggest that the experience of the hypnotic regression was an experience during which you were able to move into deeper levels of your being and experience the resources of your deeper mind which are available upon request when there is a need for your understanding in a specific area relating to your own growth because these resources are similar to what you have experienced through contact with beings residing within the world of thought and which seem to be exterior to your self. Laitos continued by saying we suggest that the means by which you may discriminate between these kinds of experiences is that which we suggested by the reexamination of the challenging technique and gathering yourself about a principle for which one lives in a fundamental sense, and would give the life if necessary, is the beginning of this principle and its exercise when contact with thought entities is felt, and then it is necessary to challenge them with the full force of your belief in order that those of the positive nature may be discerned from those of a negative nature which might attempt to confuse a contact in any way, so we suggest that meditation upon the core ideal, by which you shall in future times challenge such contacts, be instituted upon a regular basis in order that you may increase your ability to discriminate between contacts in your future. On March 29, 2001, Q’uo describe the world of thought:

And as each rests in this present moment, what is the nature of each? Each is Logos and yet not Logos, not fully realized. Each is human, earthly and limited, and yet not fully human, not fully earthly, and not fully limited, for there is the growing awareness of the creatorship within. And so, each is as an entity with one foot in each world, the world of the Earth and the world of infinity; the world of things and the world of thoughts.

Coming into that world of thought, that world of intention and principle, that world of desire, and ideal, and Love, moving into the heart, we ask each to let the world of flesh retreat. As each of you rests in this world of the spirit, you have an unique viewpoint, for you are still within the body, within the incarnation, within the confusion, and yet by resting in the metaphysical, in the spiritual awareness of the heart, you have a release into spiritual things, into those things that can be trusted and depended upon to exist today, tomorrow, and forever. The concerns within which you rest are concerns that will matter just as much in a thousand years, in ten thousand years, in a million years.

May we answer in any other way, my sister?

N: No, thank you, I will try that. Thank you very much.

I am Laitos, and we thank you my sister. It has been an honor to work with you, and we commend the openness of your particular channel. Is there another query at this time?

W: Yes. I wondering if I was doing the challenging properly, and if not what I can do to change that?

I am Laitos and am aware of your query, my sister. We find that the means by which your challenging has been exercised is one which is quite efficacious at this time, but we may also suggest that the strengthening of the sense of self and the ideal about which one orbits the life pattern is most helpful in strengthening the ability to offer the challenge and to make the discriminations necessary in order to begin the vocal channeling process.

May we speak further, my sister?

W: No, I think I got everything.

I am Laitos, and we wish to express once again our joy at working with your instrument, my sister. Is there another query at this time?

N: Yes. I’m curious about the entity that I channeled in August. Can you give me any information about that?

I am Laitos, and in this regard we must speak in general terms, my sister, for many are the experiences which the seeker of truth will encounter that offer insight to that entity and that entity alone by that entity’s own examination of the experience and the gleaning from it of that which is there to teach. We do not wish to intrude upon this process overly much, but may suggest that there are various locations upon your planetary surface which have through ages past been imbued with certain vibratory nexi of experience presented by what you would call various tribes and cultures. These areas having thus been invested with a certain vibratory level or frequency then continue to attract entities of this vibratory frequency both in the physical and in the metaphysical realms. Thus, the area in which you found yourself at that time had, through previous experiences, drawn unto itself entities of a nature which we find are described in your culture as the medicine man or woman, the shaman, which is of a powerful nature and which operates largely in the world of thought in order to effect changes in the manifested illusion that are in a fundamental sense metaphysically empowered. Thus, the area and its history was presented to your sensitive inner feelings and amplified by the group of entities with which you shared this experience so that your instrument became available for the use of the entity which indeed made contact with this group through your instrument. Thus, it was a coinciding of various circumstances that allowed this experience to ensue.

May we speak in any other fashion, my sister?

N: No, that is sufficient. Thank you.

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

[Pause]

I am Laitos, and at this time we wish once again to offer our heartfelt gratitude to each present for inviting our presence within your circle of seeking. We are full of the joy of the Light and harmonious vibrations that emanate from this group, and we thank each for offering us this gift. At this time we shall take our leave of this group and remind each that we are available upon request for the joining in meditation and the deepening of the meditative state at any time you should request it. However, we remind each that the attempt to work upon the vocal channeling is best reserved for this particular gathering in order that the process might continue with the most efficacy and the least confusion. We are known to you as those of Laitos, and we leave this group at this time in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning the quote from The Infinite Way is: “Spiritual illumination enables us to discern the spiritual reality where the human concept appears to be. Spiritual sense discerns the reality of that which appears as concept.

The development of spiritual consciousness begins with our first realization that what we are beholding through the senses of sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell is not the reality of things. Disregarding appearances entirely, the first ray of spiritual illumination brings us hints of the divine, the eternal, and immortal. This in turn makes the appearance even less real to us, thereby admitting even greeter illumination.

Our progress Spiritward is in proportion to the illumination which enables us to behold more and more of Reality. Because the human scene is entirely a misconception through misperception, any thought of helping, healing, correcting, or changing the material picture must be relinquished in order that we may see the ever-present Reality.

Spiritual illumination comes to us in a measure with our first investigation of truth. We believe that we are seeking good, or truth; whereas the Light has begun to shine in our consciousness compelling us to take the steps we have since taken. Every increase of our spiritual understanding was more Light appearing and dispelling the darkness of sense. This inflow of illumination will continue until we come to the full realization of our true identity as the Light of the world. Without illumination, we struggle with the forces of the world; we labor for a living; we struggle to maintain our place and position; we compete for riches or honors. Often, we war with our own friends and even find ourselves at war with ourselves. There is no security in personal possessions even after the battle to acquire them has been won.

Illumination first brings peace, confidence, and assurance; it brings rest from the world’s contests, and then all good flows to us through Grace. We see now that we do not live by acquiring, gaining, or achieving. We live by Grace; we possess all as the gift of God; we do not get our good because we already have all good.”

Later this morning I used my vacuum cleaner to vacuum the first floor of my home.

This afternoon I used Huff and Puff to blow all the leaves and the Sycamore Tree bark off of the Moss Garden and across Little Locust Creek. Then I used Whip Lash to weed the Moss Garden and to remove the moss from the brick walk on each side of the Moss Garden. Then I used Huff and Puff to blow the weeds to the other side of Little Locust Creek.

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

June 26

The Spirit Speaks Through You

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

There are times when those who wish to seek the Spirit of Love find themselves unable to perceive that which has been given but which is blocked by some error of human thought within the seeker.

Yet this apparent lack of contact lived in a life of faith is not a troublesome matter, for the faithful seeker knows that the Spirit is always active in those who seek the Spirit. Thus, by faith it is understood that Christ’s power does not come into the world here and not there but is everywhere.

Moreover, how many, many times is someone blocked from Christ’s consciousness, yet given the grace to be that consciousness for another? So may seeker encourage seeker and spirit encourage spirit.

Let not your tongues be silent when you may speak words of sympathy and encouragement to others. For the spirit speaks through you and heals the world.

May the peace of love be yours, 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 Q’uo channeling is from January 25, 1987:

What style of life makes one more adaptable to the spiritual journey, whether it might be the more community oriented lifestyle of the Communist China where the individual is programmed and taught to think of the welfare of the group, or the type of lifestyle of the hermit who lives secluded for years contemplating the Creator, or the style of life that we ordinary American citizens enjoy where we have many temptations and ability to express ourselves in whatever way we choose?

(Carla channeling)

We are known to you as Q’uo. We greet you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator whom we as you do serve. With the Creator’s blessing do we bless each and greet each and with our own Love may we also greet you as brothers and sisters.

The question that you have asked poses an interesting problem to us, for in answering we must change your question. We cannot speak to you concerning the structure of your communism as opposed to the structure of your capitalism in regards to the spiritual benefits of either because government is not of the ray wherein spiritual concerns are addressed. The nature of spiritual programming is that it overrides all other programming, changing the perceptions of the entity which is working within spiritual programs of thought, so that regardless of the experiential catalyst which greets the seeker the seeker perceives a spiritual question and attempts the appropriate spiritually motivated action in response. The key to understanding why communism, which is a direct mundane analog of your religiously based community—for example, the Essenes, the Christians, and the Hindus—is nevertheless placed in the position of governing. The tools of the government are persuasion and force. It is hoped by governments that emotional responses such as patriotism shall encourage a spiritual response to a mundane and illusory web of social structure. In many spiritually oriented people this patriotism does, indeed, lend a harmonizing, solidifying influence to any government.

However, the communist can experience either complete freedom or complete slavery within the communistic way of life, as can the capitalist. The perceptions govern the experience, not the catalyst. Similarly, though it may seem that the communism offers a simpler life, in actuality it is the rural nature of life lived under any governmental system, with its shorter lists of places to go and people to see, which enable the spiritual oriented seeker to nurture the spiritual orientation which they may wish to aid. When any rule of life becomes a law within the life experience, but not one with the consciousness of those metaphysical principles which are eternal, one has removed it from the system, from the range, of spiritually reliable, useful tools for spiritual growth. It is to be noted that the so-called monasteries are responses to the felt need of those who have begun working upon spiritual energies to the point where the choice is made to sacrifice all portions of the life experience which do not feed into the greatest possible spiritual content of life. Thus, the sacrifice is the cornerstone for the development which ensues. Few monasteries are located within your cities, and even these few maintain an artificially simple lifestyle. Thus, you may see that the spiritual choice is to retreat from both the world and the government.

The group question today is: “What style of life makes one more adaptable to the spiritual journey, whether it might be the more community oriented lifestyle of the Communist China where the individual is programmed and taught to think of the welfare of the group, or the type of lifestyle of the hermit who lives secluded for years contemplating the Creator, or the style of life that we ordinary American citizens enjoy where we have many temptations and ability to express ourselves in whatever way we choose?” Q’uo began by saying we cannot speak to you concerning the structure of communism as opposed to the structure of capitalism in regards to the spiritual benefits of either because government is not of the ray where spiritual concerns are addressed, for the nature of spiritual programming is that it overrides all other programming, changing the perceptions of the entity which is working within spiritual programs of thought, so regardless of the experiential catalyst which greets the seeker, the seeker perceives a spiritual question and attempts the appropriate spiritually motivated action in response, and the key to understanding why communism, which is a direct mundane analog of your religiously based community—for example, the Essenes, the Christians, and the Hindus—is placed in the position of governing, and the tools of the government are persuasion and force, so it is hoped by governments that emotional responses such as patriotism shall encourage a spiritual response to an illusory web of social structure, for in many spiritually oriented people patriotism lends a harmonizing influence to any government. Q’uo went on to say the communist can experience either complete freedom or complete slavery within the communistic way of life, as can the capitalist, for the perceptions govern the experience, not the catalyst, and though it may seem that communism offers a simpler life, it is the rural nature of life lived under any governmental system, with its shorter lists of places to go and people to see, which enables the spiritual oriented seeker to nurture the spiritual orientation which they may wish to aid, so when any rule of life becomes a law within the life experience, but not one with the consciousness of those metaphysical principles which are eternal, one has removed it from the system of spiritually useful tools for spiritual growth, yet it is to be noted that the monasteries are responses to the need of those who have begun working upon spiritual energies to the point where the choice is made to sacrifice all portions of the life experience which do not feed into the spiritual content of life, so sacrifice is the cornerstone for the development which comes about, but few monasteries are located within cities, and even these maintain an artificially simple lifestyle, so you may see that the spiritual choice is to retreat from both the world and the government. On February 22, 2020, Q’uo spoke of the nature of spiritual energies:

As we move into the blue energy center, this is the first center in which the spiritual energies are outgoing and the entity is the Creator expressing itself in clear communication, including honest descriptions of the effect of the catalyst it is experiencing, inspirational messages that are spoken from clarity, and the unity that is found within the heart. Thus, the blue-ray energy center has a kind of challenge which asks of the entity so passing through this center to be able to find the clarity and wisdom in situations which may be confusing or somehow dumbfounding, in respect of being able to understand the ultimate reason for the experience.

When one gazes at the communist experience, one may find many groups of shamanic and other entities which without the approval of the government meet to attempt some spiritual seeking. Thus, neither can government can aid in spiritual seeking nor shall any government which may govern humans, if we may use that word, in the third-density state of unpolarized experience, also hope to govern a reliable promotion of spiritual seeking. The choices for social government by law must rely upon the lowest possible level of excellence, shall we say, the greatest possible swing of error, so that whatever action is undertaken amongst humans, there shall be a governing principle. The law which is interesting and profitable to the spiritual seeker is a law which the seeker hopes shall become more and more able to be perceived by all seekers and certainly by all seekers within a spiritually oriented community, as one law so that spiritual government is government by complete individual consent. Thus, any one entity would be able to help such a government. This is considered unacceptably inefficient by those whose energies turn to the government of your people, and understandably so.

There is one element, we may say, of the concepts involved in capitalism which is to our opinion a metaphysical principle of some degree of excellence. That principle is not fully respected at this time among your people, yet we observe that the concept of freedom is, indeed, valued by each which dwells within your capitalistic society. It is excellent that freedom is taught, yet, for spiritual seeking, it is to be remembered that one is always free, for the world, indeed the creation, lies within the mind and the heart, and there is no government which may interfere with the polarizing done by the spiritual seeker except if the government destroys the physical body of the seeker. This may, for a particular seeker, be a great aid since, taking the larger view, that seeker may have completed the lessons it was to learn and may, by being a sacrifice to a principle, inspire others as is the way of spiritual seekers of excellence among your people.

Now Q’uo said when one gazes at the communist experience, one may find many groups of shamanic and other entities which, without the approval of the government, meet to attempt some spiritual seeking, so neither government can aid in spiritual seeking, nor shall any government which may govern humans in the third-density state of unpolarized experience hope to govern a reliable promotion of spiritual seeking because the choices for social government by law must rely on the lowest level of excellence and the greatest possible swing of error, so that whatever action is undertaken amongst humans, there shall be a governing principle, so the law which is interesting and profitable to the spiritual seeker is a law which the seeker hopes shall become able to be perceived by all seekers within a spiritually oriented community as one law, so that spiritual government is government by individual consent, yet any entity would be able to help such a government, but this is considered unacceptably inefficient by those whose energies turn to the government of your people, and understandably so. Q’uo continued by saying there is one element of the concepts involved in capitalism which is a metaphysical principle of some degree of excellence, but that principle is not respected at this time, yet we observe that the concept of freedom is valued by each which dwells within your capitalistic society, so it is excellent that freedom is taught, yet for spiritual seeking it is to be remembered that one is always free, for the world and the creation lies within the mind and the heart, and there is no government which may interfere with the polarizing done by the spiritual seeker except if the government destroys the physical body of the seeker, and this may, for a particular seeker, be a great aid since, taking the larger view, that seeker may have completed the lessons it was to learn and may, by being a sacrifice to a principle, inspire others as is the way of spiritual seekers of excellence among your people. On July 17, 2003, Q’uo described the concept of freedom:

The skill that feeds into the concept of freedom is that skill which is able to see the energies, the thought clusters, and the directions that those thought clusters take in their inferences and their suggestions of further thought. In other words, it accepts all of those thoughts as interesting, useful, beautiful, intriguing and equal. And all of the thoughts may be enjoyed, appreciated, respected, honored, and followed as one would follow the strengths of a beautiful painting, the motifs of a beautiful piece of music, admiring, appreciating, moving into new places within the mind, within the feelings, because of this catalyst, these works of art that the people around you and their situations offer you in terms of the feeling clusters, the emotional and ethical challenges that are unique to each situation.

We ask each of you always to turn your gaze at last from the creations of humankind, however lofty and beguiling they may be, however intellectually precise and fascinating, for that which lies within you is a dimly perceived holographic representation of one great original Idea, an Idea which is a mystery. In the end, turn aside your face from gazing in the mirror at the world about you, and, in order to know yourself, seek the face of the Creator. Why do you look within illusion for your true nature? Do you not wish to know the truth? The truth lies not among the fallow fields of people’s imaginations and actions, nor within fine words or great governments, although great ideas and great philosophies both communism and capitalism feed. The truth about you lies within the mystery of the face of God, if we may use that term. The one thing which you have been taught is constant in a shifting and relative world is Light itself, and yet we say to you that Light is only the physical manifestation of an Idea that created all that there is. It is within the mystery of the Idea of Love that the truth about you lies. There is no government that may help or hinder in the seeking of that face.

Then Q’uo said we ask each of you to turn your gaze from the creations of humankind, however intellectually precise and fascinating, for that which lies within you is a dimly perceived holographic representation of one great original Idea which is a mystery, and in the end, turn aside your face from gazing in the mirror at the world about you, and, in order to know yourself, seek the face of the Creator, for: “Why do you look within illusion for your true nature? Do you not wish to know the truth?” Then Q’uo said the truth about you lies within the mystery of the face of God, so the one thing which you have been taught that is constant in a shifting and relative world is Light, yet we say to you that Light is only the physical manifestation of an Idea that created all that there is, and it is within the mystery of the Idea of Love that the truth about you lies, for there is no government that may help or hinder in the seeking of that face. On March 8, 1989, Q’uo described the face of God:

I am Q’uo, and we would suggest that as the seeker of truth attempts to know the self by whatever means is chosen, the seeker is making itself aware of the face of God in one aspect or another as It is expressed in the incarnational pattern. Thus, to know the self in the deepest sense is to know all selves; is to know the creation; and is to know the one Creator.

We would at this time transfer this contact. We thank this instrument for making itself available. We are known to you as Q’uo, and we transfer at this time.

(Jim channeling)

I am Q’uo, and we are pleased to greet you again in Love and Light through this instrument. At this time, it is our privilege to offer ourselves in the service of attempting to respond to any further queries which those gathered may have value in the asking. We remind each that we offer but our opinions and ask that these be taken as such. May we begin with a query?

Carla: What would you say to someone who is having physical difficulties that make it kinda hard to get around and feel some despair over the future? Besides “don’t do that”?

I am Q’uo, and we are aware, my sister, that this question has special meaning to your own experience. And we would suggest that it be remembered at all times that one moves within the limitless Love of the Creator within this illusion in order that through your experience the Creator might become aware of the possibilities for Love to be placed in situations that will require an increased experience of Itself in order to uncover that Love which has been carefully hidden. Thus does the Creator find Its beingness expressed in your experience in manners vivid and pure as a result of the constant effort to uncover Its own face through your efforts.

Thus does the Creator move within the tiniest, the grandest, the most joyful and the most difficult of circumstances in order to enable each seeker at every portion of its journey to both become aware of the ever-present sustenance of the Love of the Creator when appropriate and also to find those times within the experience of an incarnation when the price, shall we say, for such joyful discovery is far greater in order that that discovery might be imbedded more deeply and securely within the seeker’s total being. Thus, one may see a relationship evolve in which the more difficult seeking provides the opportunity for the more deeply experienced and securely seated revelation of Love and unity which ever underlie all experience. Thus, that which is cheaply bought is easily forgotten; that which bears the greater price is that which remains as sure foundation stones upon further experience and service of the One is possible.

Carla asked: “What would you say to someone who is having physical difficulties that make it kinda hard to get around and feel some despair over the future? Besides “don’t do that”?” Q’uo replied we are aware that this question has special meaning to your experience, and we suggest that it be remembered that one moves within the limitless Love of the Creator within this illusion in order that through your experience the Creator might become aware of the possibilities for Love to be placed in situations that will require an increased experience of Itself in order to uncover that Love which has been carefully hidden, and yet does the Creator find Its beingness expressed in your experience in manners pure as a result of the constant effort to uncover Its own face through your efforts. Then Q’uo said the Creator moves within the most joyful and the most difficult of circumstances in order to enable each seeker at every portion of its journey to both become aware of the ever-present sustenance of the Love of the Creator when appropriate and also to find those times within the experience of an incarnation when the price for such joyful discovery is greater in order that the discovery might be imbedded more deeply and securely within the seeker’s total being, for one may see a relationship evolve in which the more difficult seeking provides the opportunity for the deeply experienced and securely seated revelation of Love and unity which underlie all experience, but that which is cheaply bought is easily forgotten, and that which bears the greater price is that which remains as sure foundation stones upon further experience and service of the One is possible. On May 27, 2008, Q’uo described the nature of our service to the One:

We may say that the sources are there. However, they are scattered and unrecognized. Consequently, we would suggest to the one known as D that he combine research into Light and Its nature, especially research done by those who are unrecognized and obscure, with a continuation of his unremitting, unwavering, absolute devotion to the One infinite Creator and to the service of the One infinite Creator, and to maintain that focus while requesting his guidance system to enhance his ability to sense that path of resonance and synchronicity that shall aid him.

May we speak further, my sister?

Carla: No. Thank you very much, Q’uo.

Q’uo: We thank you, my sister. Might there be another query?

H: Yeah, I have something I’ve been thinking about for a few months now. In our Bible, it’s got in the last days that there will be the final conflict or the final war, the war of all wars. And after that it said there’ll be something like a thousand years of peace. Could you elaborate on that statement?

I am Q’uo, and within this work of which you speak, we find the beginning recognition of the quality of existence that shall fall unto those who remain within the loving guidance, shall we say, of the free and joyful expression of Love, one for another. Those who shall find their own experience producing the fruit of Love and compassion shall enter upon a journey which, within the work you have described, was able to be perceived as the thousand years of peace.

Yet in truth, my brother, we might suggest that this time has no such shortened boundaries, but refers to a level of existence in which the Love of the Creator becomes ever more apparent and powerful within the personal incarnation and is seen without doubt to be that which undergirds all creation and experience within the creation. Each entity within this level of experience shall find that the doors of perception are swung wide until the heart is filled full of the creative and compassionate energy of the Creator and is given freely to those about one in a fashion which knows no boundaries and is the result of the simple beingness and natural expression of that beingness for each seeker.

May we speak further, my brother?

H: No, that answers that quite well. I just have one more comment on the same statement. Would the seventy-five-thousand-year cycle actually end upon the end of this era, then?

I am Q’uo, and this is correct, my brother, for the cycle which is now reaching its culmination upon your planetary sphere has provided the opportunity for those within its boundaries to move the conscious perception of the creation far enough to allow a greater experience to follow. The ability of each seeker within your illusion has been developed to the point during its seventy-five-thousand-year cycle where it is now possible for each seeker to welcome and enjoy the greater intensity of Light that shall be presented within the fourth-density experience.

May we speak further, my brother?

H: No, I think that took care of that. Thank you.

Carla: Okay, one last one for me. I wondered if you could comment on just what the spiritual impact of Shirley MacLaine’s TV special was on the consciousness of this planet?

I am Q’uo. And we look upon the event of which you speak as that which is likened unto a great and shining Light in a sea of darkness. Yet, if one perceives carefully this sea of darkness, one begins to note many lights flickering in various portions of the darkness. Each light burns of an intensity which each seeker has produced according to the desire to know that which you know as the truth. Events such as the airing of the program of which you speak are seen within the metaphysical realm as a great and shining Light which, for a brief period of your experience, illuminates the darkness to the extent where all inhabiting that darkness are able for that moment to perceive carefully outlined shadows of truth. In this momentary perception and possibility for perception, the light which burns either dimly or brightly within all who inhabit your illusion finds a greater intensity possible for that moment that may, if empowered with personal desire to continue the seeking, allow the Light to burn more brightly after the event has passed.

Carla asked: “I wondered if you could comment on just what the spiritual impact of Shirley MacLaine’s TV special was on the consciousness of this planet?” Q’uo said we look upon the event of which you speak as that which is like a shining Light in a sea of darkness, yet if one perceives carefully this sea of darkness, one begins to note many Lights flickering in various portions of the darkness, and each Light burns with an intensity which each seeker has produced according to the desire to know the truth, for events such as the airing of the program of which you speak are seen within the metaphysical realm as a shining Light which illuminates the darkness to the extent where all inhabiting that darkness are able to perceive carefully outlined shadows of truth, and in this possibility for perception the Light which burns either dimly or brightly within all who inhabit your illusion finds a greater intensity possible for that moment that may, if empowered with personal desire to continue the seeking, allow the Light to burn more brightly after the event has passed. On September 23, 2000, Q’uo spoke about the shining Light:

We are members of those who are called the Brothers and Sisters of Sorrow. It is the sorrow upon the planetary surface and within the people of this planetary sphere that calls us here. This sorrow is expressed in many ways. That which you may call an intense desire to seek the truth is a shining Light amidst the sorrow and that which gives great joy to all who behold such Light. And, yet it is the sorrow that calls us here. The lack of knowledge of the one Creator. The lack of Light. The lack of Love. The heart that is closed. The mind that is beaten upon by the culture in which it cannot find expression. There are as many ways to feel and express sorrow in this third-density illusion as there are entities within it. And each seeks in some fashion that which may be called the truth. As we see those who express the kind of seeking and sorrow that we are able to respond to we are desirous in the extreme in moving to these entities in whatever way is possible.

May we speak further, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you.

Q’uo: We thank you.

H: I have one more question concerning Shirley MacLaine, about the gentleman named David. Did he ever have contact with Maya again, what he was so much seeking?

I am Q’uo and am again with this instrument. We find that this entity has experienced the presence of the one of whom you speak in a fashion which is not the person-to-person physical vehicle contact, but which is that more of the nature now being expressed as we communicate our thoughts through this instrument. The entity, David, has satisfied itself that this is the most desirable form of contact for this time within its incarnational pattern. However, we cannot speak as to the future as you call it, for this we see as an infringement upon free will.

May we speak further, my brother?

H: No, thank you, that’s all.

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

[Pause]

I am Q’uo, and we thank each for allowing our presence this evening. We have been very honored to be able to join this group and to respond to those queries which have been placed before us with loving care. We ask that if our presence is desired in your meditations that a simple request will find us joining you there. We shall leave this group at this time, rejoicing and giving praise that we are able to join you on your journey of seeking. We leave each in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are known to you as those of Q’uo. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning the quote from The Infinite Way is: “The desire to perpetuate our false sense of body and wealth ensnares us into death, or mortality.

The first step in the attainment of immortality is living out from the center of our being, as in the idea of unfoldment from within, rather than accretion: it is the giving sense rather than getting; being rather than attaining. In this consciousness, there is no condemnation, judgment, hatred, or fear, but rather a continuous feeling of love and forgiveness.

It is not a simple matter to show forth the joy and peace of immortality because to those intent on preserving their present concepts of being, immortality would appear to be extinction. This is not the case: it is the eternal preservation of all that is real, fine, noble, harmonious, gracious, unselfish, and peaceful. It is reality brought to light in place of the illusion of sense. It is the conscious awareness of the infinity of individual being replacing the finite sense of existence.

Selfishness and conceit fall away in the realization of the divinity of our being.

This realization brings forth patience and forbearance with those still struggling in mortal, material consciousness. It is being in the world but not of it.”

Later this morning I went outside and cleaned three hummingbird feeders, and then I filled them with sugar syrup. I hung one of the small ones on the corner of my garage and one above the back deck of my home. Then I took the large hummingbird feeder across the street and hung it up in front of my neighbor’s home.

This afternoon I ran some errands with my first stop being at Walmart’s where I bought two reams of printer paper. My second stop was at Kroeger’s where I bought some food for myself. My third stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some more food for myself. My fourth stop was at Speedway Gas Station where I filled Stanley’s gas tank with gasoline. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I bought some clothes washing detergent, Kleenexes, and Toilet Paper.

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

June 25

Bless Your Brokenness

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

As you see yourself moving into the world of business and matters, objects, and circumstances, you may well see yourself to be inadequate to or broken by all of these worldly things. See and bless this brokenness.

I say “bless” because to be broken is the blessing of the fruit that is to be eaten; of the loaf that is to be shared; of the limited, inadequate thing which may become not only enough but much more than enough.

Open your inner being to the consciousness of Love which the Spirit of Jesus the Christ offers. Bless and give thanks for your limitations and then open the heart to the action of the consciousness of infinite Love, and you shall see how all has been created perfectly.

We leave you in the peace and the Love of Jesus the Christ. 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 Ahbout Dey, Q’uo, Latwii, and Nona channelings for this session come from January 18, 1987:

(Carla channeling)

…a Tibetan, and I greet you in the Love and in the Light of the One Who Is All. I thank you for allowing me to speak with your group. I am not a member of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator, nor am I a social being, but an individual as are each of you. I speak from an icy fastness far from humankind and wish to contact this instrument for the purpose of sharing the joy of experiencing what I would call the end of the personal trail of my life. I have placed myself in my final resting place and will soon be gone from this Earthly habitation. My path has been strange, and I am most honored to be able to share with those who may share sympathy with me and wish me well, the story of my life.

When I was a very young boy, I wished very much to be a girl, and my father was ashamed of me and gave me to a monastery near the [sounds like] Potulla. This may seem hard, yet it was my salvation, for in the monastery I saw good masters and bad masters but all sought not only the things of the world, but also and more importantly, the things of the spirit. And so, being young, ashamed, and hoping for amendment with life, I blended quickly into the ceaseless prayer wheel of monastic existence. For thirty years I held a subservient place in the monastery, wishing for nothing more, for the simple things were more and more nourishing to me, and as I learned the discipline of myself my own company became more and more desirable.

When I was thirty-nine years old, I was allowed to become a retreatant, one who contemplated constantly and alone. When I was fifty-five I awoke one morning with itching feet and left my cave and started out walking. I desired to study more than I had studied in the monastery, for although I had contemplated for many years, I had not satisfied myself that I was free from karmic responsibility for my sexual aberration. I walked into China but did not find satisfaction there nor did I find satisfaction in India. But in India, in Singapore, I found a missionary who spoke to me of redemption, and so I studied redemption, and as I die, for I am now old, I am glad in my heart as if I were a still a young man that I have come to see redemption in all that lies around me.

Thank you for listening to my unremarkable story. I give you my name. [Sounds like] Ahbout Dey. This is not quite correct. We are sorry—the instrument is not capable of repeating correctly our syllables. It does not matter, for I have been alone, neither Buddhist nor Christian, for many years. For thirty-three years, to be exact, I lived the incarnation of a solitary man. I witness that the Lord of my life is far more vivid than the sweetest tastes, sounds, feelings, thoughts, or objects that are possible in the world. I rejoice at the dissolution of old bones and await the freeing of my perfect spirit. Neither Buddhist nor Christian yet loving the sun of my day and the moon of my night, I come to my death as a bride to the wedding night, fearful yet full of gladness. It has eased my heart and mind to have one last human touch, and I bless you for having hearts that respond and understand that all humans are one together. When we are together, I will make myself known to you, and we shall rejoice together as we do now. The Christ in me acknowledges and rejoices in the Christ in you. Farewell. Namaste.

(Carla channeling)

I am Q’uo, and I greet you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. It is a privilege and a blessing to speak with you this evening, and we especially greet the one known as S. We wish to add immediately that the one known as Latwii wishes to greet this entity also through this instrument and through the instrument known as Jim at a later time. We have to say that to get the one known as Latwii off our collective backs.

The consideration which a seeker must do when faced with a question of service to another can be of necessity expensive, for true service is not an easy proposition. When one speaks of true service to another, it may be seen that free will is paramount. However, we would break down service-to-others questions into two kinds. There are service-to-other questions having to do with being of spiritual aid to another; there are service-to-other questions that have to do with aiding another in a non-spiritual fashion, at least in a surface or appearance sense. In no case is it acceptable for one who wishes to be of service to others to infringe upon free will. Thus, any service which is not requested by another is a service which may be suggested but not properly fulfilled without permission. The question of service to another in a non-spiritual category such as the diet is, as the questioner may have surmised, not particularly important, for it is indeed the intention of being of service which is important metaphysically. Thus, if the choice is between carrots and cake, and it is a matter of judgment and discussion.

We would emphasize always the value of communication. If there has been adequate communication on the subject of carrots and cake, for instance, the one doing the serving shall have the guideline of the entity’s preference who is to be served. If the entity wishes to be aided but also wishes to be rewarded, it is then that the request has been made that one be the nurturer of the other, much as the mother would be to the child. It is acceptable for mothers to be very indulgent at times and very strict at other times, depending upon judgment. Thus, if the agreement has been made that one entity shall nurture another, the one who wishes to be of service may simply use its best judgment. If the agreement has specific instructions but it would be violating your own free will to fulfill the instructions, then the instructions must go unfulfilled, for your own free will is as valuable as that of the one whom you wish to serve.

In this session Q’uo spoke about different ways that we can be of service to others. They began by saying the consideration which a seeker must make when faced with a question of service to another can be expensive, for true service is not an easy proposition, for when one speaks of true service to another, it may be seen that free will is paramount, but we would break down service-to-others questions into two kinds, so there are service-to-others questions having to do with being of spiritual aid to another, and there are service-to-others questions that have to do with aiding another in a non-spiritual fashion, yet in no case is it acceptable for one who wishes to be of service to others to infringe upon free will since any service which is not requested by another is a service which may be suggested but not properly fulfilled without permission, and the question of service to another in a non-spiritual category such as the diet is not important, for it is the intention of being of service which is important metaphysically, so if the choice is between carrots and cake it is a matter of judgment. Then Latwii said we would emphasize the value of communication, so if there has been communication on the subject of carrots and cake the one doing the serving shall have the guideline of the entity’s preference who is to be served, and if the entity wishes to be aided but also wishes to be rewarded, it is then that the request has been made that one be the nurturer of the other, so if the agreement has been made that one entity shall nurture another, the one who wishes to be of service may use its best judgment, or if the agreement has specific instructions, but it would be violating your own free will to fulfill the instructions, then the instructions must go unfulfilled, for your free will is as valuable as that of the one whom you wish to serve. On February 24, 2002, Q’uo spoke of the value of communication:

We simply ask each of you to lift the linear judgment away from the limitations of eyesight. Lift away from the limitations of that which is seemingly being communicated in any situation, so that as you come to the communication in its seeming outward form, which is words, inflections, and body language, you have as much realization as you can bring into your heart of the beauty, the sacredness and the worth of each and every entity that is within your world.

The processes of linear thought shall continue to work as they have for third-density entities for millennia. But the value of communication never remains at the level of problems solved and information shared. The value of communication lies in the reception of each by each in such a way that each is a helper to each. Each is a supporter and encourager to each. When communication finds ways to embrace this realization of the preciousness of each other, then that which is communicated enters into the mutual systems of the two in a far more enhanced way which is very powerful in deep, subconscious levels of connection. For you see, what you are actually doing in communicating betwixt each other is creating connections of a certain kind. The hoped-for result of communication for those who are service-to-others oriented is an energy exchange which is helpful to both parties. It is this particular instrument’s opinion that when she responds to a request for help from someone who assumes that she is a teacher, what she is actually doing is not sharing information so much as sharing Love. And it is in the acceptance of that other self, the honoring and respecting of that other self, that communication begins to have real worth, not simply in what is said, but in the energy that runs beneath the words.

We now move to the question of true service to another, that being that service which aids another entity in its spiritual evolution. It is helpful to see all events, situations and questions of service as having the potential for some spiritual aid. Take each service under brief analysis and evaluation to see if there can be an overriding metaphysical principle which may be of some help to the one whom you wish to serve. If that be so, and if free will is not abridged, then it is well to act according to your best perception of spiritual aid to another’s evolution. The life experience contains multitudinous small decisions which fade as does new dye into the soft pastels of remembered actions. As you gaze back upon those millions of things that you have done for others, attempt to remember those times when service had a metaphysical slant and realize that these are the important decisions to make, these are the services to value and carry out with the utmost of dedication.

Other questions are questions of nurturing. The mind complex of your people in your culture carries many, many demands which are not important. Once that is understood, if we may use that term, it becomes easier to give priority to the importance of the decisions that you are making. There is the quantity of life within an incarnation to be considered, and quality of life within an incarnation to be considered. There is virtue and there is the joy of licentious behavior in celebration of the comedy of existence. One who does not enjoy iniquity may find it difficult to enjoy virtue, and we urge that those who nurture sprinkle rewards amongst the carrots. Yet, if the entity whom you serve has other requests, and a fit of virtue comes upon it, then shall you enter a season in which the smallest service, the giving of the carrot instead of the cake, has new metaphysical meaning. Gauge the mood and the intention of the one whom you seek to serve by communication and agreement and value your own self and your other self as spiritual beings above all, who are acting within the illusion in such a way that outside of the illusion they will see that progress has been attempted during the life experience.

Q’uo went on to say we move to the question of true service to another, that being that service which aids another entity in its spiritual evolution, and it is helpful to see all situations and questions of service as having the potential for spiritual aid, so take each service under analysis to see if there can be an overriding metaphysical principle which may be of help to the one whom you wish to serve, and if that be so, and if free will is not abridged, then it is well to act according to your best perception of spiritual aid to another’s evolution, for the life experience contains many small decisions which fade as does new dye into the soft pastels of remembered actions, and as you gaze back upon those millions of things that you have done for others, remember those times when service had a metaphysical slant and realize that these are the important services to value and carry out with dedication. Q’uo continued by saying the mind complex of your culture carries many demands which are not important, and once that is understood it becomes easier to give priority to the importance of the decisions that you are making, for there is the quantity of life within an incarnation to be considered, so there is the joy of unacceptable behavior in celebration of the comedy of existence, but if the entity whom you serve has other requests, and a sense of virtue comes upon it, then shall you enter a season in which the smallest service, the giving of the carrot instead of the cake, has new metaphysical meaning, so gauge the mood and the intention of the one whom you seek to serve by communication and agreement and value your self and your other self as spiritual beings above all, who are acting within the illusion in such a way that outside of the illusion they will see that progress has been attempted during the life experience. On September 9, 1980, Hatonn described the nature of spiritual beings:

In the days ahead you will find that the decisions which you as spiritual beings make will be the keynotes to the decisions upon the physical plane which you then must make in order to carry out your spiritual plan. For those of you who have consciously worked on seeking out your own identity, whatever happens to you will, therefore, be of a much different nature and feeling than it will be to others for it will be seen differently by you. You will find yourself being changed and, since growth is always painful, you will experience some discomfort emotionally and mentally as you adjust to new conditions of living. But those of you who are destined to live through the first changes and to be some of those who are as rocks amid the quicksand will be able to view and deal with these discomforts in such a manner as would benefit your state of mind.

This instrument remains open, yet we find a lack of vital energy, and would at this time bless you and thank you for the great privilege of being allowed to give our poor opinions and to share the beauty of your vibrations as you sit in meditation this night. How we Love each of you, yet the Love pours through us, not from us. We ask that you take our words lightly, for we are fallible beings. We leave this instrument and this group in Love and the infinite Light of the one infinite Creator. We are known to you as Q’uo. Adonai. Adonai vasu borragus.

(Carla channeling)

I am Latwii, and I greet you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator whom we serve. We are so glad to be with your group this evening. We cannot tell you how long it has been since we were able to use this instrument. We speak to the one known as S frequently, but we are glad to do it through this instrument, and we also greet the one known as Jim and the one known as Carla, and even the one known as J. This is what is called a “tape letter.” This instrument thought it was funny. We have nothing to say through this instrument, but only wish to keep working at adjusting our vibration so that eventually we may contact this instrument without discomfort. We have not gotten there yet but will keep working on it as long as our patience and the instrument’s neck hold out. For now, we will transfer with much anticipation to the one known as Jim. I am Latwii.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii and greet each of you again in Love and Light. We are grateful to this instrument for allowing our contact. It has also been quite some time since we have been able to contact this instrument, and we are overjoyed that we are able to speak our humble thoughts through this instrument and to this group. We thank each for allowing our presence and we hope that we might be of some small service by offering ourselves in the attempt to answer those queries which those present may feel worth the asking. May we at this time begin with a query?

S: Hello, Latwii. It’s so good to hear you. I do have a question from R. When we first asked questions about the donuts it was some time ago, and he has forgotten a lot, so he asked me if I would ask you about sweating. What it does for his illness, and is more always better?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my sister, and the query of the one known as R. We send our greetings to this entity as well and we may suggest that the exercise of the sweating is that which is most beneficial to one which wishes to remove from the physical vehicle those toxins which may accumulate in the daily round of your activities which include much that is of the deleterious nature in the foodstuffs, the waters, the air intake, and the finding of the self within an environment which is altogether quite disharmonious from time to time.

The toxins which the physical vehicle stores in various of its organs are best released by the sweating technique when the sweating is undertaken in a manner which is regular and extensive, yet which does not exceed the body’s ability to function. To be more specific, might we suggest, my sister, that the care be taken that the body fluids be not drained in such a manner that dehydration occurs for the entity who simply desires to remove the toxins yet desires to maintain the vitality of the physical vehicle. This amount of exercising of the sweating technique is that which each shall find the need to determine for the self, for there is the unique quality to each entity, and most especially to each physical vehicle, that requires that experimentation be undertaken to determine the amount of the sweating that might be tolerated without the dehydration and weakening of both physical and mental complexes.

May we speak further, my sister?

S: No, thank you Latwii, I’m sure that will be helpful.

I am Latwii, and we thank you and the one known as R. May we respond to another query?

Carla: This Ahbout Dey or whoever, is he going to tell us any more about his life? Or do you know any more about that? Can I know any more about that?

I am Latwii, and the one of whom you speak is one which has for some time, as it is reckoned within your illusion, moved within a realm which is metaphysical in nature, yet the entity has dwelt within your physical illusion for the greater portion of its physical incarnation. This entity has for a period of your time desired to make a contact with a physical group or entity upon this planetary sphere in order that it might satisfy the yearnings of its soul, shall we say, to have touched and to have been touched by those with whom it shared existence, though its sharing of existence was from a distance, shall we say.

The seeking of the one Creator for this entity has taken the form of finding that Creator within the silence and solitude of the personal experience of this illusion. However, this entity is aware that in order to complete the Earthly portion of its experience within this planetary influence, that it needed, in its own estimation, to ground that which had been learned by simply speaking of the experience that has allowed it to progress to its point of departure, shall we say, from this illusion. There is the possibility that this entity may desire further contact, although we might suggest the possibility at this point is small, as you would term it, for the entity moves rapidly toward the entrance to the larger life experience in which it shall find its abilities and desires focused in other dimensions.

May we speak further, my sister?

Carla: Would it help this entity if we read the Tibetan Book of the Dead for it?

I am Latwii, and we scan the entity and…

Carla: Let me finish the question, come to think of it, because he spoke of not being Christian or Buddhist. Would it help if…

[Side one of tape ends.]

To finish the question, would it, since he’s sort of half Tibetan and half Christian, would it help to do either/or both the Tibetan Book of the Dead reading, or the American Book of the Dead reading, or the Christian burial service from my Episcopal Church? Would that give him peace? The second part of the question on the other subject is, would he want to speak with us after he dies?

I am Latwii, and we apologize for the delay. This instrument found the need to accomplish that of the challenging and we now are free to speak again through this instrument, and in response to your query, my sister, we find that the entity of whom you speak is one which is not in need of the guidance for those whose eyes do not penetrate beyond the veil. This entity, for a great portion of what you would call your time experience, has been well aware of the metaphysical nature of the illusion in which it moved its physical vehicle, and has for a great portion of your time found a home within both the physical and the metaphysical realms, and, therefore, is quite conversant with the passage through which the metaphysical realm shall become its greater and complete experience. We are unable to determine as to the future desires of this entity in regards to making contact with groups such as your own. We are, however, aware that this entity is greatly pleased with the contact which it has been able to share with this group and wishes that each be aware of its gratitude and joy at this blending of energies for the brief period this evening.

May we speak further, my sister?

Carla: Just on the service of commemoration. Would this soul wish to have its death celebrated and sent on its way rejoicing which is pretty much what the Episcopal service does?

I am Latwii, and we find that the contact which was made this evening with this group by this entity was indeed a portion of that entity’s commemoration of its incarnation, shall we say. The further commemoration of this incarnation by your own desires is that which is completely left to your own discrimination.

May we speak further, my sister?

Carla: No thank you.

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

Carla: Does that mean that funerals as a whole are not appreciated by the dead person, but are held, indeed, for the comfort of the living? Pardon the nomenclature. I’m sure you understand.

I am Latwii, and we are, indeed, aware that there is a certain means by which the commemoration of the passing from an incarnation is described. Indeed, there is the multiple purpose to such commemoration. The entity moving through the doors of transition is frequently touched and moved and sent in joy upon its journey by such experiences as the funeral, the wake, the prayers, the singing and the placing of the physical remains within a certain location designated for such receptions. We are also aware that there is the need upon the part of those who remain to come together in the grieving for that entity which has gone on in order that the relationship with that entity be brought to a culmination and not be left, shall we say, hanging with the consciousness of those who remain. The entity who goes on moves towards an existence which is a continuation of a larger pattern of being and the completion of a smaller portion of that pattern is a service, shall we say, to this entity and fills a need upon the part of those who remain to find their own completion.

May we speak further, my sister?

Carla: I’ll have to read that. Thank you.

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

S: Well, Latwii, I have what may be a query. I’ve been feeling lately that in the [inaudible] years, R and I have made what seems to be several surprises—I know they weren’t mistakes. It really gets aggravating, and I guess what I’m really hoping for is a shot in the arm here. Do you have anything up your sleeve?

I am Latwii, and we feel that we grasp the gist of your query, my sister. Indeed, many there are within your illusion which find surprises, as you call them, from time to time within the life patterns. Indeed, only those who have failed to rouse the self from the slumber of the third-density illusion to any degree whatsoever are those who live a life devoid of surprise, for those who seek in the conscious fashion the riddles to the evolutionary process and the movement into mystery the discovery of the surprises will become an experience that is repeated time and time again. For though little is truly understood within your illusion, all moves in a pattern of completeness and wholeness, and in a pattern which before the incarnation was quite apparent to each, and which each willingly placed the self in in order that certain tendencies and biases might be either balanced or accentuated according to the overall needs of the development of the soul. Thus, the illusion is entered with the desire to progress in a manner which is not possible without the experience of the illusion. Those times of difficulty, of confusion, of the traumatic occurrence, and of the totally unexpected nature of the manner in which events fall in the pattern of the life are those times which before the incarnation are seen as treasures, my sister.

It is known that during the life experience within the third-density illusion that quite the opposite point of view shall be experienced, and it is known before the incarnation that one shall have to work carefully with this point of view, for it sees through a glass quite, quite, quite darkly, and what it sees is most often out of focus at least 180 degrees, for that which is of difficulty during the incarnation is seen as that which hopefully shall be minimized, perhaps even avoided. However, prior to the incarnation these difficulties are seen as those experiences which will allow the entity to test its own ability to perceive and to bring forth into the incarnation those qualities which it wishes to develop, much as you would develop a muscle of your physical vehicle by exercising it time and again. The difficulties then exercise a spiritual muscle which in the realms of harmony and joy tends to grow somewhat lax and loses its tone, shall we say. Thus, if you should during an incarnation attempt to measure your experience and your progress in worldly terms, you shall become disillusioned and fail to see the overall perfection, humor, and harmony of that experience which may seem difficult and confusing within the incarnation. Thus, we suggest judging not the self, or another self, or the progress of any, for as you judge, thus you are yourself judged by those worldly measurements which cannot begin to encompass the nature of the illusion in which you move, and the purpose for which you have entered it, and the goals that you have set for yourself.

S asked: “I’ve been feeling lately that in the [inaudible] years, R and I have made what seems to be several surprises—I know they weren’t mistakes. It really gets aggravating, and I guess what I’m really hoping for is a shot in the arm here. Do you have anything up your sleeve?” Latwii began by saying many are within your illusion which find surprises within the life patterns, but only those who have failed to rouse the self from the slumber of the third-density illusion are those who live a life lacking surprise, for those who seek the riddles to the evolutionary process and the movement into the mystery of discovery of the surprises will become an experience that is repeated, for though little is understood within your illusion, all moves in a pattern of completeness, and in a pattern which before the incarnation was apparent to each, and which each placed the self in in order that certain tendencies might be either balanced or accentuated according to the overall needs of the development of the soul, for the illusion is entered with the desire to progress in a manner which is not possible without the experience of the illusion, so those times of confusion and of the unexpected nature of the manner in which events fall in the pattern of the life are those times which before the incarnation are seen as treasures. Latwii went on to say it is known that during the life experience within the third-density illusion that the opposite point of view shall be experienced, and it is known before the incarnation that one shall have to work carefully with this point of view, for it sees through a glass darkly, and what it sees is often out of focus at least 180 degrees, for that which is of difficulty during the incarnation is seen as that which shall be minimized or avoided, but prior to the incarnation these difficulties are seen as experiences which will allow the entity to test its own ability to perceive and to bring forth into the incarnation those qualities which it wishes to develop, so the difficulties exercise a spiritual muscle which in the realms of harmony and joy tends to grow lax and loses its tone, yet if you should attempt to measure your progress in worldly terms, you shall become disillusioned and fail to see the overall perfection and harmony of that experience which may seem difficult within the incarnation, but we suggest judging not the self, or another self, or the progress of any, for as you judge, thus you are judged by worldly measurements which cannot encompass the nature of the illusion in which you move, and the goals that you have set for yourself. On January 6, 1991, Q’uo spoke of the nature of the illusion:

First of all, as you surmise, there is a paradox in that all traditions are correct, in all of their many confusing ways. That is to say, that the nature of the illusion is helpful, so that, in order to transcend experience, one must enter freely into experience. The way to realization of the nature of the soul and the nature of the Creator is through the illusion, not around it in any way. It is when moving through experiences that are appropriately valued and respected that one may begin to transcend them, and to achieve an immediate awareness of the presence of Love, that is, the one infinite Creator.

Thus, the ability to retain the light touch, my sister, and to accept that which seems unacceptable are the attitudes that are most helpful, we have found, in dealing with those times which seem to be less than desirable. If this incarnation and this illusion were all that existed for any entity, then each would truly be in, shall we say, the hottest water. However, we may suggest that there is a stream of beingness that moves before, through, and beyond this third-density illusion, and it shall carry you further and further toward the source of all being as you are able to accept in joy each experience that comes before your notice, for each experience is that which you had hoped for and planned for and girded your loins for and is that which shall tone and test your spiritual muscles and perceptions.

Latwii went on to say the ability to retain the light touch and to accept that which seems unacceptable are the attitudes that are most helpful in dealing with those times which seem to be less than desirable, for if this incarnation and this illusion were all that existed for any entity, then each would truly be in the hottest water, but we suggest that there is a stream of beingness that moves before, through, and beyond this third-density illusion, and it shall carry you further toward the Source of all being as you are able to accept in joy each experience that comes before your notice, for each experience is that which you had hoped for, and planned for, and girded your loins for and is that which shall test your spiritual muscles and perceptions. On March 31, 2021, Q’uo spoke of the nature of the Source of all being:

Your question today is one which moves to the heart of every conscious spiritual seeker of truth who wishes to know more about the nature of its own journey back into unity with the One Creator who made all things in this world that you live upon and in all worlds in the infinite creation. This is the desire of all seekers of truth to attempt to know the unknown, to attempt to make sense of what is difficult to understand. The attempt to serve when one wonders how best to serve. The attempt to know the self and ever greater realms of experience. This great desire to reunite with the Source of all being is that which is the glue, shall we say, that binds the creation together in all the infinite varieties of intelligence, forms of life, and matters of being. What things are described and referred to in that poignant quote, “things come not to but through one”?

May we speak further, my sister?

S: Thank you, Latwii, for that two-by-four. It felt wonderful.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, my sister, and we hope that we have not given you any splinters.

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

Carla: Well, it did bring up something I had been meaning to ask about before I get the book out that I’m writing, and that was something I put in the book was that I felt that people who meditate go through more changes more quickly than people that don’t meditate. It’s a problem if you have a couple where one meditates and one doesn’t because the one who meditates is going to start changing faster and there’s going to be all kinds of problems there. And I wondered if that was true?

I am Latwii, and, indeed, my sister, we have found that this is so, most especially within your third-density illusion, for within this illusion, as we have previously spoken, the perceptions are clouded by that which is of unknowing to such a profound degree that when one utilizes the tool of meditation and begins at the deeper levels of the subconscious mind to clear the way of beingness in order that it might make itself known and felt and begin to undergird the incarnation, then the entity thus engaging itself within the meditative state upon a regular basis begins to be powered by a source of being which is far more subtly profound, shall we say, within the incarnative pattern than any influence within the illusion, that the entity is changed, shall we say, in its basic perceptions so that the general run of experience in the life pattern is perceived in a fundamentally different fashion from those whose primary focus is within the mundane reality.

Thus, the entity engaging in a sincere and dedicated fashion in the practice of meditation, and contemplation, and the prayerful attitude is an entity which is less moved by the turbulence, shall we say, of the daily round of activities and will see these activities in a manner which begins to penetrate beyond the outer appearance of things and moves towards the heart. This type of perception differs markedly from that perception which does not move beyond the exterior shell of the daily round of activities, and which focuses instead upon the seeming importance of mundane details.

May we speak further, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you, Latwii.

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

Carla: Not from me, thank you.

S: Well, I’ve got a million, but I didn’t bring my list so I’ll save them for another time.

I am Latwii, and we are most happy to have been able to speak to this group this evening, and we look forward to each of the million queries which remain, for this means that we shall be able to speak many, many more times to this group and, hopefully, be able to crack a few more jokes through this instrument and perhaps apply another two-by-four or two. We hope that each will remember that our words are not infallible in any degree. We are your fallible brothers and sisters of Latwii, and you know us well, so we can’t kid you. We leave each of you at this time in the Love and Light in which we have found you and in which each at all times dwells. There we dwell with you. We are known to you as those of Latwii. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

(Carla channeling)

I am Nona, and would sing of Love and Light and healing. We come in the power and Love, the Light and joy of the infinite Creator.

[Carla channels a vocal healing melody from Nona.]

This morning the quote from The Infinite Way is: “Heretofore, we have been concerned with the letter of truth, now only with the spirit of truth. We are not so concerned now with what is truth as we are with feeling truth. This is accomplished in proportion as we give less thought to the letter and more receptivity to the feel. This word “feel,” incidentally, refers also to the awareness, the consciousness, or a sense of truth. We are not now speaking truth but receiving truth, and that which we receive in silence we may speak from the housetops with authority.

Spiritual healing is the natural result of a divinely illumined consciousness. We are illumined only as we are receptive and responsive to spiritual illumination.

We misunderstand immortality when we think of it as the immortality of the human personality, or personal sense. Death does not produce immortality or end personal sense, nor does the continuation of human existence mean the attainment of immortality

Immortality is attained in proportion as personal sense is overcome whether here or hereafter. As we put off the personal ego and attain the consciousness of our real Self—the Reality of us, divine Consciousness—we attain immortality. And that can be achieved here and now.”

When I went outside this morning, I discovered another raccoon in my Hava-Hart trap, the 14^th one in the last few months. So, I took it to a rural area in southern Indiana and released it.

This afternoon I was once again honored to co-host the European Law of One Telegram Group. Today I read Ra Session #79 to the group, and some of the questions that I was asked were: “What books do I read now?” “What was the nature of the pain in Carla’s body, and how did it affect the Ra contact?” “Why did Ra ask us never to touch Carla’s body while she was channeling Ra?” “Why did Don keep Carla from reading the Ra sessions?” “Have I ever had an enlightening experience?” “What was Carla’s reaction when she was finally able to read the Ra contact sessions?” “Did Don, Carla, or I ever contact intelligent infinity?” and “What yearly or daily rituals do I use now?” It was an honor, once again, to be able to co-host the European Law of One Telegram Group, and I am looking forward to studying Ra Session #80 next Wednesday.

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

June 24

The Bird That Sings

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

I greet you in joy. Think you that Jesus did not have joy? It is not so. No matter what the suffering of the human condition, there is joy in every moment to be found by opening the inward eye to the beauties, the possibilities, and the chances of the creation.

It may perhaps be that there are matters which cause the utmost discouragement. Yet always there is the bird that sings, the tassel upon the corn that waves in the wind, and the blue, ethereal sky flocked with clouds.

Look up this day and find the joy within the creation about you. Look within and feel the kindly hand of the Spirit, for the principle of Love needs only to be requested to appear in each seeking heart.

We leave you in peace, Love and joy, 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 Q’uo channeling for this session comes from January 11, 1987:

“Q’uo: You have asked us to discuss the paradox of opposite emotions. ‘Why,’ you ask, ‘is there both joy and sorrow?’”

(Carla channeling)

I am Q’uo, and I greet you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. It is a great blessing to share your meditation with you, and we humbly thank you for allowing us to partake in the vibrations which are so beautiful a part of the creation, for each of you creates a beautiful harmony and symphony with all of the colors and tints, hues, and shades of emotion, thought and action with which you weave the tapestry of your lives. In meditation, each energy center, as this instrument calls it, flows more and more, and clearly, colorful and beautiful to our perception, with the aura sharing so beautifully that unique gift which is each entity’s to offer to itself, for each which sees beauty is also of that beauty, and we thank you for the rare privilege of seeing so lovely a reflection of the Creator we are, all as you sit in the light of your circle, radiant and at peace.

Yet, what makes you at peace at this time is not what you have asked us to discuss. You have asked us to discuss the paradox of opposite emotions. “Why,” you ask, “is there both joy and sorrow?” As we gaze at each beautiful glittering aura, at the amazing complexity of shading, shape, and brightness, each entity quite perfect and unique, we can only praise the Creator for such spiritually helpful paradoxes, for it is through the stress of unacceptable things that the finest and most extreme emotions, thoughts and actions may be brought out of an entity. And as the Creator can only become Self-conscious by gazing at the infinite numbers of reflections that are the consciousnesses given free choice, the Creator sees brighter, deeper, and ever more glorious faces. And once again, each time an entity chooses to use the experience of joy in a productive way or to use a difficult experience productively, the greater self of that entity cheers, knowing that the Creator has again chosen to express Itself in a more coherent and unified manner, for all of evolution in the spiritual as well as in other senses seems to us, in our opinion, to move in a purposefully positive way, each choice for crystallization moving and polarizing the entity more and more.

This is our attempt at explaining why there is joy and why there is sorrow, but not why there is a paradox. In order to grasp the necessity of paradox in any limited expression of the inexpressible, one must first realize the profound mystery of the Creation itself. In terms of grasping an ultimate mystery, those who use words, and, to a great extent, those who use concepts to communicate, are completely unable to grasp truth. There is no polarity, nor is there sense. Sense consists of the organization of random effects so that coherence may be established. This is indeed the discipline of the personality. The mind of your conscious self is able only to deal with sense. Therefore, it is extremely common among your people to see the Deity Itself in a polarized fashion. All of your illusion depends upon polarity, and not yours alone, but a large portion, indeed, a considerable one of the total experience of which we are at this present moment aware. Thus, the physical and metaphysical laws, shall we say, or descriptions of the way things are arranged, must include polarity of all kinds and the concept of oppositeness. The either/or nature of your experience is designed to enable the decision-making process that, as each entity moves through the density of choice, each choice has the chance of being a firm and serious choice, one highly polarized, making one a more conscious person.

The concept that Q’uo discussed for this session was: “You have asked us to discuss the paradox of opposite emotions. ‘Why,’ you ask, ‘is there both joy and sorrow?’” Q’uo began by saying you have asked us to discuss the paradox of opposite emotions, and as we gaze at each beautiful aura, each entity perfect and unique, we can only praise the Creator for such spiritually helpful paradoxes, for it is through the stress of unacceptable things that the finest and most extreme emotions, thoughts, and actions may be brought out of an entity, for the Creator can only become Self-conscious by gazing at the infinite numbers of reflections that are the consciousnesses given free choice, so the Creator sees brighter, deeper, and ever more glorious faces, and each time an entity chooses to use the experience of joy in a productive way or to use a difficult experience productively, the greater self of that entity cheers, knowing that the Creator has again chosen to express Itself in a more unified manner, for all of evolution in the spiritual as well as in other senses seems to us to move in a positive way, each choice for crystallization polarizing the entity more and more. Q’uo continued by saying this is our attempt at explaining why there is joy, and why there is sorrow, but not why there is a paradox, and in order to grasp the necessity of paradox in any limited expression of the inexpressible, one must first realize the mystery of the Creation, for in terms of grasping an ultimate mystery, those who use words or concepts to communicate are unable to grasp truth, for there is no polarity, nor is there sense because sense consists of the organization of random effects, so that coherence may be established, and this is the discipline of the personality where the mind of your conscious self is able only to deal with sense, but it is common among your people to see the Deity Itself in a polarized fashion since all of your illusion depends upon polarity, and not yours alone, but a large portion of the experience of which we are aware of, yet the physical and metaphysical laws of the way things are arranged must include polarity of all kinds and the concept of oppositeness, for the either/or nature of your experience is designed to enable the decision-making process that, as each entity moves through the density of choice, each choice has the chance of being highly polarized, making one a more conscious person. On November 21, 2023, Q’uo described the nature of the density of choice:

You have correctly stated that Love is the reason each entity within the third density has come here to discover within itself. For this is the density of choice where you are able to take Love and use it either in service to others or in the service to the self. This is the means by which the Creator may know Itself more fully on each of these two paths and know that this Love does exist within each portion of each moment. For it is the Love of the One Infinite Creator that has created all the one infinite creation out of that which you may call the Light of Love. These are your tools for moving through the third density in a manner which will allow you to utilize difficult catalysts that may bring you to your knees from time to time. And by the processing of this catalyst, find the Love within the moment, for this is a great journey of third density.

Thus, all of the emotions may be found to have the opposite, and, indeed, in some way, include and evoke the opposite shadow, for has there been pure joy without sorrow? Or unadulterated sorrow without some fond or joyful shade? As the seeker becomes able to grasp the intended use of both joy and sorrow, the seeker may then balance joy with sorrow and sorrow with joy, sickness with health and health with sickness, in all experience of polarized nature whatever, finding in any polarity of seeming catalyst of a free choice for the emotion expressed in experience. It is rare for seekers to find it easy to master this discipline, but the problem of polarity being a central lesson for Love and Wisdom and the balance between them shall be with you for a long portion of experience, and it is well to begin the process of either/or so that in each choice you may become a bit more balanced, a bit more compassionate, and a bit more aware of the full consciousness of Love which created both joy and sadness and polarity itself, for in the end, if we can find joy an occasion to worship and sadness an occasion to praise, we shall once and for all have learned a central lesson of consciousness.

Now Q’uo said all of the emotions may be found to have the opposite and, in some way, include the opposite shadow, for: “Has there been pure joy without sorrow? Or unadulterated sorrow without some fond or joyful shade?” Then Q’uo said the seeker becomes able to grasp the intended use of both joy and sorrow, so the seeker may balance joy with sorrow and sorrow with joy, sickness with health and health with sickness, in all experience of a polarized nature, finding in any polarity of catalyst a free choice for the emotion expressed in experience, but it is rare for seekers to find it easy to master this discipline, for the problem of polarity being a central lesson for Love and Wisdom, and the balance between them shall be with you for a long portion of experience, and it is well to begin the process of either/or so that in each choice you may become more balanced, more compassionate and more aware of the full consciousness of Love which created both joy, and sadness, and polarity itself, for in the end, if we can find joy an occasion to worship and sadness an occasion to praise, we shall once and for all have learned a central lesson of consciousness. On April 13, 2022, Q’uo spoke about how we can become more compassionate:

And surely when the environment about one is tended to with Love and care, this peace may multiply, may strengthen, may become more vibrant, may become more dense. And when we speak of environment, we speak not only of the three-dimensional, sensory environment, we speak also of the energetic environment. An entity who tends to this garden, waters the seedlings, removes the weeds of distraction or separation of conflict, and fertilizes that nutrient-rich ground of wholesome peace and serenity, they will surely find that the blooms that appear over time are bountiful, colorful, and ever growing.

And just in that way, that peace and serenity translates to a falling away of those things which can create extra complexity in the entity’s life. Not to say that the entity will give up all complex or distracting items about their environment or their experience, but that they will begin to see the simplicity that runs underneath the Love that is that nutrient-rich ground, that life-giving force, if you will, that binding agent. And the entity can then more clearly see, more clearly accept and move towards a more compassionate and focused, if you will, incarnation, one that is allowing the simplicity of Love and unity to guide the spirit rather than the extraneous decorations about the life that many on your planet find themselves distracted by.

We leave you, delighting in the joyous and riotous symphony of planets, stars, galaxies and infinite constellations. We are grateful for the intensity of your seeking and shall be with any which shall request our presence during meditation, that we may in silence kneel within the heart and bow before the perfect whole and unified creation which is All and in All. We are those of Q’uo. We ask, as always, that you take no thought for any idea which may have been offered by us which you find unhelpful. We are far from infallible and are imperfect and most humble in our offering to you of our opinions. We thank you again and again and must reluctantly leave this channel. We would transfer at this time. I am Q’uo.

(Jim channeling)

I am Q’uo and greet each of you again in Love and Light through this instrument. At this time, it is our privilege to attempt to be of service by asking if there might be any queries?

H: Yes, I have just a small question, you might find, but this aura that keeps coming up, that can be seen with certain photography, is this aura related or connected to the soul as we understand the soul?

I am Q’uo. We might suggest that the aura, as you have called it, is a reflection, shall we say, not only of an entity’s current ability to blend mind, body, and spirit in its present incarnation, but it is also a reflection of an entity’s seeking throughout its entire series of incarnational experiences so that that quality which you call the soul brings into incarnation certain abilities and propensities that then become the foundation, shall we say, of the current incarnation’s study. Therefore, when one looks upon the manifestation known as the aura, one may see a register of a seeker’s current and previous attempts to blend the evolution of mind, body, and spirit.

May we speak further, my brother?

H: No, that does it pretty good. Thank you.

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

R: Yes, if you please. We are learning from various sources that perhaps the end of an age or the end of a civilization could be transpiring, and it seems as though we need perhaps words of encouragement as to how to consider this and how to accept it, not perhaps what to expect as such, as how do we as seekers of Light, how do we respond so that we can remain strong, steadfast? What can we do?

I am Q’uo, and, my sister, you have queried upon a large subject which each seeker may find it shares with all others, yet which it might also find is reflected in the personal pattern of experience in a unique fashion. In general, we might suggest that each seeker remembers the one Creator in each daily experience by spending time communing in the meditative state with the Source of all cycles, all changes, and all movement in the evolutionary process. Such time spent in meditation allows the seeker to fashion a regularized channel, shall we say, through its own subconscious mind to those sources of power, shall we say, which manifest themselves as love and light, or compassion and wisdom in the metaphysical sense, and when contacted in a regular fashion become an unseen foundation upon which each day might be constructed.

For some the meditative state is aided by prayers, by the giving of praise and thanksgiving for that which is the seeker’s to share with others that day, and perhaps with the study of information which the seeker finds of inspirational and instructional value. Thus, with this regularized framework of study and inspiration, the seeker prepares the incarnational self to receive those lessons and to provide those services which are its to experience, and to share, not only for the day, as you call it, but one after the other for the entire incarnational experience. Thusly prepared, the seeker may move through its incarnational experiences empowered by the faith that there is purpose and direction to the life pattern, and that that which comes before the seeker’s notice is appropriate and full of purpose and opportunity to learn and to serve. Thus, no matter what experience might find its way into the incarnational pattern, the seeker thus empowered by faith and the desire to learn and serve may look upon each experience as being yet another opportunity for the Creator to know Itself and to be served and glorified by the seeker that has the will and faith to penetrate the outer appearance of things and to find at their heart the love and the light of the one Creator.

R asked: “We are learning from various sources that perhaps the end of an age or the end of a civilization could be transpiring, and it seems as though we need perhaps words of encouragement as to how to consider this and how to accept it, not perhaps what to expect as such, as how do we as seekers of Light respond so that we can remain strong, steadfast? What can we do?” Q’uo began by saying we suggest that each seeker remembers the one Creator in each daily experience by spending time communing in the meditative state with the Source of all cycles in the evolutionary process, for such time spent in meditation allows the seeker to fashion a regularized channel through its subconscious mind to those sources of power which manifest themselves as Love and Light, or compassion and wisdom in the metaphysical sense, and when contacted in a regular fashion become an unseen foundation upon which each day might be constructed. Then Q’uo said for some the meditative state is aided by prayers, by the giving of praise and thanksgiving for that which is the seeker’s to share with others that day, and with the study of information which the seeker finds of value, and with this regularized framework of study and inspiration, the seeker prepares the incarnational self to receive those lessons and to provide those services which are its to experience, and to share, not only for the day but one after the other for the entire incarnational experience, and the seeker may move through its incarnational experiences empowered by the faith that there is purpose and direction to the life pattern, so that which comes before the seeker’s notice is appropriate and full of the opportunity to learn and to serve, but no matter what experience might find its way into the incarnational pattern, the seeker thus empowered by faith and the desire to learn and serve may look upon each experience as being  another opportunity for the Creator to know Itself and to be served and glorified by the seeker that has the will and faith to penetrate the outer appearance of things and to find at their heart the Love and the Light of the one Creator. On March 27, 1983, Latwii spoke about how we can use the concepts of will and faith:

We may comment in short by suggesting that we deal with two concepts when we speak of using catalyst well or poorly. These are the concepts of the development of will and faith. As an entity constantly chooses to be of service to others or to be of service to self, to radiate Light and Love or to absorb Light and Love, the entity will develop the strength of will and faith that will make the traveling of its path ever more sure and ever more filled with the nature of that path. For the entity who chooses service to others, the constant choosing or polarizing in this direction begins to shine as a Light above such an one, that the path be lighted and grow protected. The strength of will to make that choice, and the faith to know the choice as power are the factors which guide such an entity.

May we speak further, my sister?

R: That is very, very explanatory. I’m quite inspired. Thank you.

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

Carla: I’ve got one I’d like to stick in because of hers. I have a theory, which I haven’t asked about yet, that I’d like to, that the reason that the Confederation contacts keep urging us to look on the praise and thanksgiving side of things, and not to go get mountain camps where the disasters won’t happen, is that positive energies go into the planet, just like all of the negative energies went into it that made it what it is today. And if enough people are afraid and start preparing, they might hasten the day. Is that possible? That we actually heal the planet a little by trusting it?

I am Q’uo, and, in general, my sister, we find that you have begun to uncover the basic nature of your illusion, that is, that one within the illusion will perceive the experiences of the incarnation in a manner which is congruent with what one believes about the experience that it has. This is to say that as one moves through the incarnational pattern, all experience that comes before the notice of the seeker has the potential to be viewed in either, what you may call, a positive or radiant fashion, or the negative, magnetic fashion. This assumes that all events contain the unity of the one Creator and therefore will be perceived in the fashion which the perceiver chooses.

Thus, if one’s mind is filled with the fear of a certain event, and this fear has power enough within the being of the entity, it will begin to color, shall we say, the way in which the entity perceives more and more of its illusion and experience within the illusion. Thus, it becomes necessary at some point for the seeker to choose the manner by which it will view those experiences of which it finds itself a part. These perceptions, then, have the power to transform experience. This is why the messages which we and others of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the One Creator offer always stress the benefit and necessity of regular meditation in order that the nature of the illusion in which each finds itself moving might be made more clear and coherent to the inner eye, and thus be seen as the infinite manifestation of one Being, the one Creator.

Carla asked: “The reason that the Confederation contacts keep urging us to look on the praise and thanksgiving side of things, and not to go get mountain camps where the disasters won’t happen, is that positive energies go into the planet, just like all of the negative energies went into it that made it what it is today. And if enough people are afraid and start preparing, they might hasten the day. Is that possible? That we actually heal the planet a little by trusting it?” Q’uo went on to say we find that you have begun to uncover the basic nature of your illusion which is that one within the illusion will perceive the experiences of the incarnation in a manner which is congruent with what one believes about the experience that it has, and this is that as one moves through the incarnational pattern, all experience that comes before the notice of the seeker has the potential to be viewed in either a positive or radiant fashion, or the negative or magnetic fashion, so this assumes that all events contain the unity of the one Creator and will be perceived in the fashion which the perceiver chooses. On March 8, 1989, Q’uo spoke of the nature of our incarnational pattern:

We would suggest that as the seeker of truth attempts to know the self by whatever means is chosen, the seeker is making itself aware of the face of God in one aspect or another as it is expressed in the incarnational pattern. Thus, to know the self in the deepest sense is to know all selves; is to know the creation; and is to know the one Creator.

May we speak further, my sister?

Carla: No, that was quite beautiful. I thank you very much.

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

H: I have a query, one more. At the end of the cycle we’re in right now, the seventy-five thousand year cycle, just how gradual will it be? Will it really be noticeable among the population, that something is definitely wrong with the world?

I am Q’uo, and, my brother, we might suggest that the transition, as you would call it, has already begun, and the perceptive eye may continue to notice that as your time continues to move, and events within the personal environment and the worldwide environment continue to transpire, that the general quality of thoughts having more effect upon the material world will be noticed, for the density of compassion, towards which you now move, is one in which the effect of the mind is immediate upon the personal experience and the environment. Thus, as one thinks, one experiences the effects of thought in a much quicker fashion. The movement has begun toward the vibrational change and is anticipated to continue for a greater portion of your time and experience than many who study this phenomenon have assumed.

We might suggest that it is a process rather than event, and, therefore, due to the cumulative effect of the free will of the population of your planetary sphere, the culmination of this process cannot be ascertained with any degree of accuracy, but may be understood to be expressing itself in each entity and event upon your planetary sphere so that those who have begun to become sensitized to the evolutionary process that each partakes in, each entity then will begin to notice that events and experiences seem to be filled with more intensity and potential for transformation.

May we speak further, my brother?

H: No, that explains that all right. Thank you.

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

T: Yes, I have a question, dealing with something a little bit different than the general line of questioning had to do. It has to do with manifesting either things or situations, people, or even a state of mind, a state of feeling about various things in our lives. I’ve been doing some study over the last year about how to manifest various things, various situations that you desire in your life. And most of the things that I’ve studied and read basically agree, and I would just like to get your comments on how we can manifest something in our lives that we desire?

I am Q’uo, and, my brother, we might suggest that desire has brought each into the incarnation. The power of the desire to experience your third-density illusion and the potential for transformation which it provides all within its boundaries is that which each present upon your planetary sphere has desired. The power of desire is that which moves each entity through each incarnation and each density or dimension in the eventual returning into unity with the one Creator. For, indeed, it is desire that has set the creation in motion, as the one Creator expressed the desire to know Itself and to do so by sending portions of Itself into the far reaches of what you know as the creation to experience all that may be experienced and to bring this experience as a harvest to the one Creator that It might know Itself in ways not available had it not desired to know Itself through Its many portions.

Thus, each entity within each density of the creation carries within it the same power of motivation and direction that empowers the entire creation—the desire to know, the desire to be, the desire to grow, to serve. This desire manifests itself in a workable fashion within your illusion as the qualities of what we may call will and faith. As an entity focuses the power of the will in any particular direction and empowers that will with the faith that what is willed or desired may be obtained, the entity then unleashes the power of desire to move itself in a certain direction for a certain purpose. Thus, it is not a question of what is possible, but what one desires, for each entity may utilize the power of the will and the sustenance of faith to move itself in any direction which it chooses by its own free will choice.

T asked: “I’ve been doing some study over the last year about how to manifest various things, various situations that you desire in your life. And most of the things that I’ve studied and read basically agree, and I would just like to get your comments on how we can manifest something in our lives that we desire?” Q’uo continued by saying we suggest that desire has brought each into the incarnation, and the power of the desire to experience your third-density illusion and the potential for transformation which it provides all within its boundaries is that which each present upon your planet has desired, for the power of desire is that which moves each entity through each incarnation and each density in the eventual returning into unity with the one Creator, so it is desire that has set the creation in motion, as the one Creator expressed the desire to know Itself and to do so by sending portions of Itself into the far reaches of what you know as the creation to experience all that may be experienced and to bring this experience as a harvest to the one Creator that It might know Itself in ways not available had it not desired to know Itself through Its many portions. Q’uo went on to say each entity within each density of the creation carries within it the same power of motivation and direction that empowers the entire creation: the desire to know, the desire to be, and the desire to serve, and this desire manifests itself within your illusion as the qualities of will and faith, for as an entity focuses the power of the will in any direction and empowers that will with the faith that what is willed may be obtained, the entity then unleashes the power of desire to move itself in a certain direction for a certain purpose, but it is not a question of what is possible, but what one desires, for each entity may utilize the power of the will and the sustenance of faith to move itself in any direction which it chooses by its own free will choice. On February 10, 1995, Q’uo spoke of the power of our free will choices:

Each entity in its daily round of activities does move in a fashion which, by the expenditure of energy—its nature, intensity, purity, and so forth—does call upon larger and larger influences that may redound to the very nature of the archetypical mind itself, for the nature of your creation is one in which there is a simple structure, a relationship to the Creator which is logical and all-pervasive and which resonates when a small portion of its being is set in motion by its own free will choice in a certain fashion.

If you can see the experiences that you share with each other being likened to a song, a great chorus, if you will, each note of the interrelationship sets up an harmonic response from larger and larger or, shall we say, more and more basic portions of the one creation, the most basic in many ways being the archetypical mind, the most basic in a fundamental sense being the universal mind of the one Creator.

May we speak further, my brother?

T: I have a comment—hopefully you’ll comment on it. You’re saying basically, then, that we are all the Creator and that whatever we focus our desire on we can bring to fruition by sustaining that desire…

[Side one of tape ends.]

…a lot of emotion behind a desire for a certain thing, or situation, or state of mind, then, is that a gauge by which we can gauge our own desire? I mean, I think I want something, but then if I’m not able to sustain a high level of emotion behind wanting it, can I pretty much take that as saying, well, I don’t guess, at another level of my being, that I really do want that? Does that make any sense?

I am Q’uo, and we apologize for the delay, my brother. We might suggest that situation of which you speak is basically perceived correctly, for each entity is a complex expression of a variety of desires both preincarnatively chosen and chosen during the incarnation. These desires may have more or less power or focus of attention for each entity. Thus, if an entity has decided before the incarnation that it wishes to learn a certain set of lessons and provide a certain set of services, shall we say, and during the incarnation by the action of free will choosing decides that there are other areas in which it wishes to move its attention and focus its desire, there may arise a conflict within the subconscious mind of the entity so that that which has been chosen more recently works at cross currents, shall we say, to those basic qualities of choice made previous to the incarnation.

Thus, it is sometimes the case that an entity will find itself somewhat confused and unable to realize certain desires that it has chosen for itself. In such cases, the realigning of the entity’s choices and their priorities is often a process which is speeded by the careful inward searching of what is truly of most value to the entity, for it is indeed so that the power of desire focused through the expression of will and faith provides an entity the ability to move itself as it chooses if its choices are fundamentally in harmony, shall we say, with its truest nature, that which has been brought with it into the incarnational experience. Thus, for the most efficient expression and fulfillment of desire, it is well to know the self and those qualities which have become the foundation stones of the entity and which provide it a base upon which it might stand as it views the universe about it and chooses its path of moving through that creation.

T asked: “I think I want something, but then if I’m not able to sustain a high level of emotion behind wanting it, can I pretty much take that as saying, well, I don’t guess, at another level of my being, that I really do want that? Does that make any sense?” Now Q’uo said we suggest that situation of which you speak is perceived correctly, for each entity is a complex expression of desires both pre-incarnatively chosen and chosen during the incarnation, for these desires may have more or less focus of attention for each entity, so if an entity has decided before the incarnation that it wishes to learn a certain set of lessons and provide a certain set of services, and during the incarnation, by the action of free will, decides that there are other areas in which it wishes to move its desire, there may arise a conflict within the subconscious mind of the entity, so that which has been chosen more recently works at cross currents to those qualities of choice made previous to the incarnation. Now Q’uo said it is sometimes the case that an entity will find itself confused and unable to realize desires that it has chosen for itself, and in such cases the realigning of the entity’s choices and their priorities is a process which is speeded by the inward searching of what is of most value to the entity, for it is so that the power of desire focused through the expression of will and faith provides an entity the ability to move itself as it chooses if its choices are in harmony with its truest nature, that which has been brought with it into the incarnational experience, for the most efficient fulfillment of desire, it is well to know the self and those qualities which have become the foundation stones of the entity, and which provide it a base upon which it might stand as it views the universe about it and chooses its path of moving through that creation. On May 17, 1987, Q’uo spoke about our fulfillment of desire:

All is desire and the fulfillment of desire, and the more that that desire is carefully considered and single-heartedly placed, the more that the life experience will be heartfelt, single-minded, glad, and productive.

When a seeker views the self as one which is acted upon by circumstance, one then sees the self lying down before the electricity of experience and having that experience burned into self. We suggest that the human desire has the strongest and highest electricity, metaphysically speaking, which is available upon the planet Earth in the third density at this time. Thus, the will, the heart, and the soul of humankind is far more powerful than any problem, any disease, or any natural phenomenon. Exceptions will be made in natural phenomena by appeal to a higher electricity, a higher creativity, a higher understanding of Love.

May your meditations be full of the Creator which is Love, and as you muse and contemplate upon the great mystery of the one great original Thought which is the Creator, may you become more and more imbued with the sense that electrically and creatively you shall happen to your environment and to those circumstances which greet you. Let you be the actor which decides what part to play, not one which hurriedly makes entrances and exits without ever quite learning the lines. See yourself as powerful in Love and Light.

May we speak further, my brother?

T: No, thank you very much.

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

Carla: I’ll give you one last question since nobody else has one. This is from J. I’ll try to paraphrase it from her letter. She said it had occurred to her that the channel seemed a lot like the contact, and she wondered if those who channeled weren’t wanderers channeling their true density selves.

I am Q’uo, and we find that though the supposition is one which may be correct in some cases, yet it is far too general in its application, for many instruments upon your planetary sphere at this time are from densities and portions of densities not available to their present incarnational experience and ability to contact in a reliable fashion. It is more nearly correct to suggest that those who offer themselves in service to others as vocal channels are able to provide information of a nature which is congruent with their own current level of seeking, thus attracting to themselves that which is in harmonic resonance with the nature of information which they have been utilizing within the life experience. Thus, as one learns, one may share that which has been found helpful to the self with others.

The most dynamic type of instruction is the personal experience, thus instruments may find that that which they have to share in the vocal channeling is oftentimes a reflection of the personal experience, and thus becomes a teaching and learning tool not only for the self, but for others within the evident reach of the self which serves as instrument.

May we speak further, my sister?

Carla: Not any further tonight. Thank you so much. Anybody else have questions?

R: Yes. Q’uo, I have heard, and read, and chanced to meet an entity by the name [inaudible]. By any chance are you teaching it or know of or of a form of that energy?

I am Q’uo, and as a grouping of entities into what you would call a social memory complex, we are of an origin which is exterior to your own planetary sphere. We are aware of many of the nature of the one of which you speak which have successfully moved through the various planes of experience which your planetary sphere offers as its third-density illusion. Many are those such as this entity who have learned well what is within this illusion and now offer themselves as teachers and guides, as you would call them, who are able to be of service by making contacts with vocal channels similar to the experience which each within this circle of seeking shares this evening.

May we speak further, my sister?

R: No, thank you. That answers it.

Carla: Is there any intention to the similarity of the two names. I noticed it too. Is there some sympatico vibe between you?

I am Q’uo, and there is no conscious intention upon our part to emulate or simulate the vibratory sound complex of another, yet all who seek to be of service in this manner share the desire to give that of Love and Light which it has been our privilege and honor to gain in our own journeys of seeking the truth. Thus, we find that the naming, as you call it, is a process by which we make ourselves more comfortable to those whom we contact and do so in a manner which in some fashion represents our nature of being. Thus, the nature of our beingness may be similar to many who choose to be of service by establishing the mind-to-mind contact which is known among your peoples as the vocal channeling.

May we speak further, my sister?

Carla: No thank you.

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

[Pause]

I am Q’uo, and we find that we have exhausted the queries at approximately the same time as we have exhausted this instrument. We are greatly appreciative at the opportunity to blend our vibrations with your own in this circle of seeking. We again remind each that we are but your fallible brothers and sisters who walk the same path as you, and we do not wish our words weighted over much. Take those which ring true and leave those that do not. We shall take our leave of this group at this time, leaving each as each is in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are those of Q’uo. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning the quote from The Infinite Way is: “We now are engaged in the cultivation of that spiritual sense, and we shall succeed in proportion as we relax our mental struggle and become receptive to those things which the Spirit of God teaches. Instead of trying to make Spirit operate upon our human bodies and material affairs, let us learn to disregard these mortal pictures and keep our vision on things above. When we come down to Earth again, we shall find the discords and limitations of sense disappearing and more of reality appearing.

The kingdom of God does not consist of more and better matter, nor does it necessarily include a greater vocabulary of truth. Yet the fruitage of spiritual understanding is greater harmony, peace, prosperity, joy, and more ideal companionships and relationships.

For this cause also thank we God without ceasing because when ye received the word of God which ye hear of us, ye received it not as the word of people but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe and understand.

To receive the word of God, or spiritual sense, we need to feel rather than reason. This is referred to biblically as receiving the word in the heart. Note here that the development of spiritual consciousness results in a greater gift of feeling the harmony of being. We understand that neither seeing, hearing, tasting, touching, nor smelling will reveal spiritual truth or its harmonies to us; therefore, it must come through a different faculty, the intuitive faculty which acts through feeling. Heretofore, we sat down to pray or to meditate, and immediately a stream of words and thoughts started to flow. Perhaps we began to affirm truth and deny error. You can see that this is wholly in the realm of the human mind.

In cultivating our spiritual sense, we become receptive to thoughts which come to us from within. We become hearers of the Word rather than speakers. We become so attuned to Spirit that we feel the divine harmony of being; we feel the actual presence of God. Having transcended the five physical senses our intuitive faculty is alert, receptive, and responsive to the things of the Spirit, and we begin our new existence as a result of this spiritual rebirth.”

This afternoon I used some white paint to paint the bottom of the frame of my bathroom window and the heat vent on the floor. Then I went outside and painted the lattice work beneath the bird feeder outside of my living room window.

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

June 23

The Fire Of Love

Greetings from the Spirit of Christ to the world. Love, peace, and blessings be with you.

The fire of unconditional Love is a rampaging and ruthless force which is infinitely creative. Fire also burns, and those who are led by the Spirit are often led to shed and allow to fall into disrepair traits and sensibilities which function well in the world of sense but not in the world where Love holds sway.

It cannot be escaped, the fire of Love, yet by placing yourself trustfully within that fire you may find your soul taught and tempered by its creative blaze. Much of loss is experienced by those whose path is that of Christ. May you who seek learn to see that the power of Love is one which changes situations. There is loss involved. Place your mind trustfully in the faith that those things which fall away will be replaced by far more lovely gifts.

We leave you in the peace of the Love of Jesus the Christ, 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.
