I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the 102 quote comes from Chapter Seven and the concept of flashes of insight, higher feelings and intuition—like artists:

“Flashes of Insight”, Higher Feelings and Intuition—like artists

Your people are locked in the darkness of manifestation, and so are you, yet within you there is light immeasurable. To be able to find and trust the intuitions which move from the light to the mind is most helpful, for one truly does not ever know when one is serving, one merely attempts such, and leaves the outcome in the hands of the one to whom the gift has been given, for it matters not to the giver if the gift is appreciated or not, but only if the gift is given freely and gladly without the nagging expectation of being paid back. Q’uo, December 10, 1989

Now we come to the intuitive way of making choices. In our attempts to be of service to others we are most likely to begin with an intellectual analysis of who has asked for our service and how our service might be given. If it should be that we have no definitive answer for this question, then it is that we are wise to consult our deeper self, our deeper mind, our intuition. In the quote above, Q’uo said that in our daily lives we are all “locked in the darkness of manifestation.” That suggests that the veil of forgetting is producing an inability in many instances for our choice-making to be accurate no matter how much analysis we may apply. We need a way to penetrate that veil of forgetting. Fortunately, we seem to have that way within our being.

Q’uo then said that we do have an immeasurable light within the heart of our being that can provide illumination in the form of intuition that will give us the direction in which to go. When those intuitive flashes of inspiration come into our minds we do well to trust these hunches and offer our service without any conditions. We can never know for sure whether the service will be appreciated. All we can know is that our inner knowing has spoken; we have given freely; and all is well.

At another time Q’uo gave a slightly different take on how our intuition can function to help us make choices:


There is an enormous storehouse of information which cannot ever be known in the proper sense of that word. It cannot be scientifically or objectively known. Yet this source of information is extremely helpful in the making of decisions. It is a source of information used extensively and almost to the exclusion of any other source by those in beginning fourth density. It is that portion of the mind found in the subconscious, according to your terminology, and described in various ways by those among your people who understand the great well of knowledge which intuition may offer. The intuitive faculties, the heart, this instrument would say the gut, the stomach of the mind, that which feels rather than thinks, is, when shallow and prurient feelings are removed from the mix, an extremely useful and helpful faculty for the making of choices. Q’uo, May 3, 1987

Apparently, each of us has what Q’uo called an “enormous storehouse of information” within us that is not really able to be fathomed by the conscious, rational mind. It can’t be known via science nor can it be known in an objective sense. It is part of our great subconscious mind, that mind beyond the veil, that mind that has connections to the planetary mind and the cosmic mind. Q’uo even suggested that it is the mind that is more well known and used in the fourth density. Because of its connection to the more advanced levels of consciousness which partake in the unity of the creation, decisions that are made when we seek our deepest intuitive faculties are more likely to be helpful to achieve our goals and desires upon our spiritual journeys. Of course, Q’uo also reminded us that there can be some small distortions in the way of “shallow and prurient feelings” that may need to be removed from the overall message of the intuition. This could be seen as a kind of static on the line that would not change the overall message.

Lastly, the making of choices to be of service to others through the use of our intuition was covered in a very inspirational way in this quote from Q’uo:

Those who wish the most sometimes to aid a culture or society or world are drawn by their concern into rigid conceptual structures concerning ways and means of arriving at the goal desired. We would encourage each who wishes to press forward along this path of making connections to continue seeking that intuition and sense of the heart rather than making great plans and carrying out this or that campaign conceived irrespective of connections made spontaneously. For the social memory complex shall be builded one relationship at a time, just as when entities seek peace as a nation they must first seek peace within the self. The great desire to see the global self emerge is most productive when that vision does not lead to impersonally conceived and organized attempts to contact everyone.

We encourage each to continue to trust that connections that need to be made shall be made as they come to a ripeness and a readiness. Trust and faith are those resources which shall see good use here, for the instinct of those who breathe and know that their incarnation is short is to plunge ahead, to take the bull by the horns, as the saying goes, and to move as quickly as humanly possible towards a desired end. However, the deepest desires of the human heart are those which cannot be shoved, pushed or prodded. Rather, the skillful seeker and worker in light is he who is able to surrender to the rhythms of his own destiny and to act in such a way as to magnify those internal connections in the heart and mind which keep the seeker from beginning to direct the flow of events according to some preconceived plan. Q’uo, February 26, 2995.

So Q’uo recommended that when we wish to aid any portion of the population of our planet that the most effective way to do so is not by rational analysis and plunging ahead for a quick solution but, rather to seek that “intuition and sense of the heart” and let this intuitive connection move in a rhythm that truly speaks to the needs of all concerned most lovingly to help our “social memory complex to be builded one relationship at a time.” Once again, this is the work of the conscious seeker of truth who has become a Player on the Enhanced Gameboard of Life.

This morning I welcomed a visitor from Mississippi who is a musician who had played a concert last night in Harrodsburg, KY. He is also a fellow I have done two podcasts with concerning the Law of One. We ordered a takeout lunch from the Village Anchor and enjoyed a very wide-ranging conversation before he had to leave for the airport for a flight to Denver before he returns to Mississippi.

This afternoon I finished transplanting the Hostas in the back yard which were being overgrown by the Forsythia bushes. They are still in the same flower bed, just moved out as far as possible from the bushes.

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

June 18

Give Praise!

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

I ask you to turn your minds this moment to praise. Praise the daylight, the clouds in their majesty, the mist and fog, the thunderstorm and the snow.

Praise that night which enables each to appreciate the light of day. Praise each shadow of that darkness for the beauties which come to one in the night: the dreams, the visions and hopes of paradise.

Praise the Father that has created you.

Praise your creation, for though you suffer, you live and laugh and love.

Praise consciousness itself, for in it lies the voice and the presence of the Father.

Above all, praise Jesus, the agent of redemption. And praise redemption itself, that gateway through which the journey may be made into eternity. Within each moment there is this opportunity. How exalted may your praises be! How joyful the alleluias!

Give praise! Give praise, O people of the Creator, O children of the Father! And in your heart may you experience the peace of moving into alignment with love, with Christ, with the Father, and with the spirit who speaks to comfort.

Peace be with you now and forever. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the 102 quote comes from Chapter Seven and the concept of planning your choices

Planning your Choices

Forethought and knowledge—like computer programmers

Before we are conscious of our spiritual natures, and of the process of polarizing our consciousness, we are able to serve others as the opportunities come to us in a way that may seem unplanned or unconscious. This type of service is still of a polarizing nature though perhaps not as dependable as it would be if we were conscious seekers of truth. When we become conscious seekers of truth we are more able to participate in choosing how to be of service to others. An analogy might be to see ourselves as magnets drawing more opportunities for polarizing in service to others to us as we become more and more conscious of our desire to be of service. In the following quote Q’uo shared advice on how we can make effective conscious choices of how to be of service to others.

You gaze upon our perception of the entire point of the third-density experience which you now enjoy. Each present moment brings its burgeoning harvest of possibility. Some moments are over-burdened with the need to choose. Let your faith keep you as unflustered as possible. Let your skills at using reason keep you aware of mundane concerns. But, above all, realize that both are but tools. The decision, the choice, is best made when it is made not only by you, but by such a deep portion of the self that one is one who knows, one who has a quiet mind because there is an inner sureness, ‘Yes, I have opened the heart to faith, the mind to rational consideration. Decision is not mathematical. Beyond a certain point, I cannot defend my choice. However, I know and feel sure that it is the one I need to make’.” Q’uo, May 24, 1992

As we are planning our choices in our everyday lives in general, and in our spiritual journeys in particular, there are a couple of ways of thinking about these choices. One is more logical, and one is more intuitive. In the logical approach, there is still another component to the process than just the rational mind, and that would be the general concept of faith which could also apply to the intuitive approach. This quality of faith simply knows that all will be well.

In the above quote, Q’uo began by saying that some choices may seem to the Player to be more urgent than others, but whatever the urgency that is perceived, Q’uo suggested that we utilize our faith in our ability to make good choices to keep us from becoming flustered by any seeming urgency. We need to know that everything will happen at the appropriate time for the service to be offered and to be accepted. Q’uo also recommended that we realize our ability to use reason will take all the factors of the need to chose into account in due time because we know how to use our reason and our faith as tools in any decision-making situation. We have utilized these skills over a period of time and have gained proficiency in their use.

Once having utilized both our reasoning ability and our faith in being able to make good choices there is a deeper mind that we consult to achieve our final assurance that our choice is the right one. You might see it as a deeper portion of the conscious mind or even a portion of our subconscious mind. This is that place that we go in meditation or contemplation when we seek the confidence of our oneness with all things to give us the assurance that our choice is the best one that we can make. Then we make the Choice.

In the following quote L/Leema confirms how meditation can help us make conscious choices to be of service to others:

In being of service to others, begin with the largest picture, that of infinite, everlasting consciousness, the one original Thought, the Logos. In meditation, in focused silence, fall into the deep ocean of that infinite space, that infinite light, that everlasting love, and lose yourself, lose your small clay vessel. When you come back to this reality as you may call it of the planetary sphere and its day-to-day occurrences, you shall have brought back a treasure—yourself—in the larger sense. Each moment shall seem so much more precious to you, for there are so few of them while you are within this clay vessel, while you are able to interact as you do within the illusion which you enjoy. L/Leema, June 2, 1985

Basically L/Leema is suggesting that we can be of service to others most effectively, not through immediate actual interaction with others that we wish to serve, but by transforming ourselves through meditation. L/Leema said that in meditation we can lose ourselves, as an individualized entity with a body of clay, in the love and light of the Logos. By losing ourselves in this manner we can become transformed into a greater version of ourselves, an evolution of the love and light that is within us at all times. Then we have a greater desire and ability to be of service to others in every precious moment that we experience for the rest of our lives. Our expanded awareness is now more effective in helping others to expand their own awareness.

In the following quote Q’uo uses the analogy from the Bible that allow us to use the force of our will to make choices of service to others in a kind of marriage of the present moment with our choices to be of service to others:

There is another category of considerations which we shall mention, for those considerations are important; yet, they have but a slender portion of the percentage of room in an entity’s usual considerations. These are general questions which one may have concerning keeping one’s word, being a certain way, dwelling with a certain point of view, and then noticing that one has emotionally or mentally slipped away from this standpoint or point of view. We may use the example from your holy works of the ones who awaited the bridegroom, each supposedly a bride to be. Each had, in this story, a lamp which used oil. Yet, some who hoped to marry did not carry the fuel to light the lamp. Others were prudent and had both light and fuel.

In this case, it is always well to look most pessimistically and firmly upon one’s perceived lack of forethought in fuel-carrying. One’s principles are the result of choices already made. They are your lamp. They are what you hold up before you as you await marriage with the present moment. However, without the fuel to light this lamp, the bridegroom of the present moment cannot find you in the darkness. Your forethought, your energetic concern in backing up previous ethical and metaphysical choices with the fuel to keep them fresh and lighted, are your way of being prepared for the usually unexpected arrival of a present moment, the bridegroom of which has need of your light, your face, your ethical positivity, your polarity in consciousness.

One who seeks the truth cannot rest upon the previously found truths or previously made ethical choices of one’s pilgrimage, but must continuously be prepared to meet that present circumstance which uses all past choices and demands then a living witness of your own polarity. Your choices without the energy of your will are like lamps without fuel and are not useful. Thusly, in your theoretical, abstract, metaphysical being, be very conscious that the entity who seeks shall be tested and the seeking shall go forward when the test has been passed, the passing of the test being the responsible and reliable remembrance and embracing of past choices which have increased positive polarity. Q’uo, May 24, 1992.

So meditation and awareness of the power of the present moment are both of great assistance to us in continuing to chose how to be of service to others on our spiritual journeys. As we continue to make conscious choices to be of service to others we become Players on the Enhanced Gameboard of Life.

This morning I watered my various flower gardens by moving the sprinkler from one garden to another and let it run for thirty minutes each time. We have rain forecast for next Monday and Tuesday, and I would be glad to get that rain because Mother Nature always does a better job of watering gardens than a sprinkler.

This afternoon another friend and I went to southern Indiana to visit Connie in the care home where she has been for the last few years after suffering two strokes in 2018. We talked a while about how we each are doing, and then we had some cake and ice cream that I brought along as a dessert for the lunch that Connie had about half an hour earlier. Then I read some of Carla’s A Wanderer’s Handbook to Connie which she always enjoys because she read it many years ago and has a lot of passages highlighted in yellow magic marker. Then we did our usual meditation together to complete the visit. I always come away from my visits with Connie wishing that I could do more to help her. She wants so much to be in her own home, but she has to be in the care home to get physical therapy. That will probably be the case for the rest of her life.

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

June 17

Offer The Self In Sacrifice

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

Jesus the Christ taught the disciples to pray, “Give us this day our daily bread.” The Creator has chosen that all things may be fed, upon all levels, by the breaking, sacrificing and blessing of substance.

You know already of physical food and you know of the food that emotion requires, food that is given from one soul to another of anger or of peace. Yet this act of giving of emotional and spiritual food is often not graced with a prayerful attitude or the sacrificial breaking of the self in order to open up those few words of humanity to the infinite riches of the words and feelings of the spirit of love.

In pride the manna of the love of God cannot be shared. Therefore, may each seeking soul offer itself in sacrifice, opening the spirit, breaking the loaves and fishes and blessing them, that there may be abundance of love and peace and all that may be necessary for the beloved creations of the Father.

May you feel that peace and that joy this day and ever. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

2023-06-16

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the 102 quote comes from Chapter Seven and the concept of creation of a new paradigm:

Creation of a new paradigm

“Insofar as you have entered into this conscious development of yourself and your creation, you work not only for yourself but on the level of planetary energy. The situation is not that what you think becomes something others think. It is that the vibration which supports your work radiates as would the light of a lighthouse shining out across the dark and stormy sea.

As you allow your light and your universe to shine, you are, in your beingness, fulfilling one of your deepest purposes: you are changing and shifting consciousness at the planetary level. We would emphasize that, at this level of perception, we are not speaking of those things which can be pointed to and spoken of in words. We are talking about the shift of a point of view. The work you do on yourself is sufficient and more than adequate in terms of how you may affect the consciousness of planet Earth. Change yourself and you change the world. That is how powerful you really are.” Q’uo, February 11, 2007

In this quote Q’uo gave each Player the means by which to be part of the new paradigm that is ever approaching upon planet Earth as we move into the fourth density of love and understanding. According to those of Ra the fourth-density energies have been moving into our Earth’s energy fields since just before World War II. As time has gone on these energies are more intense and give each person on Earth the opportunity to increase their level of seeking the truth and serving others. The way to be part of this great shift in personal and planetary consciousness is to simply seek to do the work that you came here to do. Each seeker has made pre-incarnative choices that are designed to shift the point of view ever more clearly and consciously to that of the open heart and unconditional love.

If you have any doubt about what that work might be, go within in meditation and seek the guidance of your higher self, your guides, the Creator within, and your own subconscious mind. There is so much inner help available that would love to see you succeed in finding your life’s purpose. And then watch what synchronistic opportunities, people, and intuitive inspirations come your way.

As Players are able to realize the open heart and the Creator of Love within, they are changed forever into beings powerful enough to change the world in some degree. Every one of us has this potential, and we can activate it into all-compassionate love as we continue to exercise our will and faith that such is possible. As more and more seekers open their hearts in all compassionate love they double and redouble and continuously redouble their effect on the world around them. As Gandhi said, they “become the change that they wish to see in the world,” and in so doing change the world.

In this quote Q’uo gives us more suggestions as to how we can help a new paradigm to manifest on Earth:

It is usually in times of difficulty and challenge that people become ready to wake up to a different way of thinking. The shock of the chaos that you have been experiencing in your business and economic world has been a wakeup call for many and the inconveniences, my brother, continue. People who have been sleeping are now vulnerable to a new way of thinking, a new paradigm. The old one clearly does not work. And you can, with every fiber of your being, enter into the moments of your life in such a way as to share the love and the light of the one infinite Creator. What you share, my brother, you need first to experience and so part of that which we would encourage you to focus upon is silence.

Silence seems to be an absence of sound. Yet in actuality silence is the medium necessary for information to flow from the energies and essences of spirit into your waking consciousness. It is powerful. We do not encourage a sudden immersion in silence but rather the putting of the toe in the water, shall we say, five minutes here and five minutes there. Yet we would encourage you to do this frequently so that you keep moving back to the silence that offers you your most powerful awareness of the infinite Creator.

It is necessary to avail yourself of the Creator’s vibration, which you may do at any time that you fall into the silence with the intention of seeking the one Creator. That which comes to you in that state of silence may not be anything of which you are aware consciously. However, you may trust that you are receiving information that will expand and transform you. And you, each of you, by your energy, your essence, your characteristic vibration, have that wonderful capacity to encourage and support the awakening of others. Q’uo, March 5, 2011

Q’uo suggested that it is now obvious on planet Earth that our old ways of doing things are no longer working as a means by which the population of Earth can move forward into the fourth density of love and understanding. Therefore, the time and the people of Earth are now ripe for being able to accept a novel approach to how the life may be lived in a higher state of consciousness. This novel approach is for each conscious seeker of truth to share more and more of the love and light of the one infinite Creator on a daily basis with all other entities.

Then Q’uo suggested that the key to sharing the love and light of the Creator more effectively is to enter into the silence of meditation. Q’uo said that this technique is so powerful and effective that they recommended that we go slowly into this silence, just a few minutes at a time, but that we do it often so that we become able to use the silence to increase our awareness of the Creator and then information and inspiration will come to us in a manner that will “expand and transform” us. Then, having experienced this expansion of our own being we will be able to help awaken more and more people to this transformation into a new paradigm. This entire process is much like sowing seeds of love and light all around us and then being able to see this love and light grow until a new paradigm of higher consciousness becomes available to the population of Earth, and we all move forward into the fourth density of love and understanding.

Q’uo also described an inspiring overview of how a new paradigm for humanity is developing in many areas from our own solar system, science, cosmology, and personal gifts that will collectively bring about a new way of being for everyone as time moves on:


As each contemplates the future, each is immediately aware of a sense of tumultuous change as your solar system rotates into a new area of space. The vibrations are changing, the density is changing. Time itself is altering. And the old paradigms grow increasingly awkward. There is in such a time a need for those who are able to move with the rhythm and the information surrounding that change, that energy, or dynamic of transformation. In such a situation as your Earth is at this time, it is to the scientists who look carefully at the actual knowledge of humankind a time when there is seen by all to be a crying need for a new paradigm. Much goes into shift or transformation in consciousness. The entire panoply of arts and sciences, disciplines of every kind, factor into a new creation, a new way of being, that model known as life experience. And so it seems simple and true that if one’s gifts include a vision of a transformed physics, cosmology, economics, social model… this would be a good time to explore areas which seem to draw you forward. This instrument, for instance, knows she must write a book. This instrument will continue to question her ability, her knowledge, her rights, her worth; however, this entity is persistent and will produce that fruit of her particular gift of which she is capable. And we encourage each to move with those gifts that draw your interest forward. Q’uo, November 19, 1997.

In essence, this is the great work of all people to become Players on the Enhanced Gameboard of Life and to use whatever talents they have to express the love of the infinite Creator to achieve the transformation of humanity into a new paradigm.

This morning I ran a couple of errands with my first stop being Walgreen’s Drug Store where I picked up a prescription for myself as well as a couple of non-food items. Then I went by Hometown Pizza and picked up a pizza which I had for lunch.

This afternoon I went into the far back yard where I have Hosta planted and decided to move them out further in their garden so that the Forsythia bushes don’t over shadow them like they have more and more as the bushes have grown over the last few years. I got about three fourths of the job done before calling it a day and taking my daily walk.

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

June 16

Be Alive Today

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

Let your lives be alive today as you spend as much mental time as possible with the consciousness of unconditional love which is the essence of Jesus the Christ. Let your day be one of joyful experience. For resting in the peace which sees that all challenges and difficulties are blessings, one may continually be moved by the presence of love, regardless of circumstance.

Let this be your day for quiet and confident remembering of the Father and of the consciousness of love which is Jesus the Christ. It is not easy to allow oneself to be content in any circumstance, but this is the lesson of joy, acceptance and faith which divine love offers.

Let this be a day of building, of loving, and of remembering.

We leave you in the peace that is not of your illusion. We leave you in the peace of the love of Jesus the Christ, with all that that implies, both 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.

2023-06-15

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the 102 quote comes from Chapter Seven and the concept of stewardship of the tribe of humankind:

Stewardship of the tribe of humankind

Your people have banded together in spiritually oriented groups whose goals are to serve the Creator by serving each other. The tribe of humankind is more and more awakening to the possibilities of the evolution of the spirit. And this increasing desire to serve has brought people together into groups that respond to the less fortunate developments upon your planet with the balm of their light and their prayers and their loving thoughts. We indeed thank those who are engaged in such groups and who are proactively sending light and love to all those places and all those entities who need the balm of that light and that love. Q’uo, March 19, 2011

The tribe of humankind is made up of all the entities who now live within the third density on planet Earth. Most entities on Earth are not consciously aware that such a tribe exists or that they are part of it. But Q’uo reminded us that many people on Earth are consciously aware of their being part of the tribe of humankind and seek to advance the evolution of the spirit in each person on Earth by being of service to them. Just as Ra said that “those who together seek shall far more surely find,” many people who are consciously aware of being members of the tribe of humankind are forming groups to work together to send their light and love to those on Earth who need that light and love to deal with destructive weather patterns, disease, oppression by authoritarian governments, war, and hunger. This type of spiritual work is enhanced by those forces of light which work from the inner planes in the magical sense and answer the call of those who seek to aid people in need.

Serving someone is not necessarily pleasing the entity. Serving someone is not necessarily doing anything to, with or for an entity. Serving someone is fundamentally the awareness that you and the person you are serving are one entity, united, singular and absolutely equal. Rejoicing in the apparent differences, a servant of the light relates to other selves as “themselves,” knowing that the self and the other-self are a certain kind of entity, citizens of eternity, dwellers beyond time and space, within a universe that is as wide as infinity and as small as the interior of the human heart.

Indeed, may we say that from our perspective, the universe lies within each of your hearts and all the stars and all the galaxies actually reside within. So as you sit upon your blanket and gaze at the outward stars, you are also gazing within at precisely the same view. That which lies within you is infinity, blessing, grace and the infinite Creator whose consciousness is all that there is.

Service is bound up in the knowing of this relationship and this nature so that when one who is a servant of the light and of the Godhead principle, shall we say, gazes upon an other self, no matter what that self is asking, the basic service is the connection of unity without judgment of any kind but with absolute faith that this entity is a spiritual entity and is to be honored, loved, respected and treated as a spiritual entity.” Q’uo, May 4, 2003

Q’uo made sure that we understand that our service to and stewardship of another person within the tribe of humanity is based upon the fact that we are one with that person and the Creator within us both. We should begin any such service with this basic recognition of our unity, and then we can rejoice in our seeming differences as equal portions of the one Creator, containing the infinity of galaxies, stars, and planets within us. When this type of a foundation has been laid within our minds and hearts, as we set about being of service, we are then functioning within the true reality of our being, and we let any service flow from us as is asked of us as clearly and cleanly as a crystal-clear river of love bubbling forth from our hearts.

This means of preparing ourselves for service to others may seem too abstract for the normal type of service that most people are used to offering. But I believe that it is a most helpful frame of mind and heart to experience before we undertake the mundane nature of any service to another person. One of the most important considerations regarding how we seek to be of service to others and stewards of the tribe of humankind is the observation of the free will of those whom we wish to serve as Q’uo shared in this quote:

The principle of free will means that each entity gets to choose his rate of progress. When an entity such as yourself, who is so eager to progress and so diligent in seeking, comes across misunderstanding and misapprehended principles, it is a great temptation, or catalyst, shall we say, to set people right according to the way you think. And we do not say that the way you think is incorrect. We only say that the overriding principle here is free will.

We would suggest two things. Firstly, if an entity asks for your opinion, we encourage you to make maximal use of the opportunity to share the love and the light of the one Creator in ways that seem good to you.

Secondly, when entities are not asking you for your opinion or for your help, yet are engaging you in conversation, we would encourage you, as we often have before through this instrument, to be a Johnny Appleseed of spiritual thought. When you see an opening, toss some seeds of thought upon the ground of their attention. Perhaps they shall take root. Perhaps not. But you are doing your best for your brothers and sisters when you create opportunities to drop seeds.

We only encourage you then to have no attachment to the outcome. Do not look behind you to see if the seeds have taken root or if the wind has blown them away. That is not your concern. Your concern is to stay in the present moment with an open heart and a readiness to console, encourage, support and love all brothers and sisters in the tribe of humankind, seeing them at the soul level and affirming that they too are the Creator as you are. Q’uo, September 26, 2009.

Seeing all as the One Creator in the infinity of our beings and letting our service flow forth as a river of unconditional love is the work of the Player on the Enhanced Game Board of life.

This morning I decided to vacuum the first floor of the house a day early since the Arborist is coming tomorrow and I may be having a zoom meet in the evening along with doing my laundry then, so vacuuming this morning will lighten my work load tomorrow.

After lunch a fellow who came to some of our public channeling meditations came by for a visit. We had a good talk about a large variety of spiritual principles and personal experiences. Then I began to prune back some new growth on the bottom of a pink Dogwood beside the fish pond whose upper branches died during the winter. There were lots of new small branches starting down on the lower part that needed to be thinned so that a more natural form for the tree could be achieved. My last work was to go around the yard to prune off the dead branches at the bottom of the canopy of other Dogwood trees in the back and front yards.

School Your Perceptions

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

My children, how I wish that my words were strong wings to bear you up into the cerulean sky of your dreams and ideals.

How I wish I could give you the gift of strong arms and backs to take up and find inspiration in those things which seem to weigh you down.

How I wish that my words were as the dawning of a morning, full of life and purpose, so that you could rejoice.

Yet all words are shadows that flee before the merciless actuality of the round and radiant light of your day. It is you, my children, who must give these gifts to yourself.

We offer you the strength of will to urge ideals and beauty into being. But it is only through your decision to accept these aids that you may school your perceptions to peace and joy.

The love of Christ be with you.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. The 102 quote today comes from Chapter Seven and the concept of living the proactive choice, the stewardship of the planet:

Living the Pro-Active Choice

Stewardship of the planet

“There is a karmic energy within many of your peoples which comes from actions in other lifetimes which resulted in making third-density environments uninhabitable. Therefore, the karma is involved in restitution and stewardship of planet Earth. And there are many people among your tribes all over the globe who feel a tremendous love for the planet itself and a desire to heal it. We would encourage this line of thinking, for truly all is one and your planet is a part of you.

As you move into the future, realize that part of your job has to do with radiating the love and light of the infinite Creator. And another part of it may well have to do with working with whatever energies that are about you in your natural, everyday environment, to attempt to become better stewards of that which is around you. What is your environment? How can you interact with it lovingly? How can you create islands of peace and joy so that when you enter the door to your home you are entering a sacred place? If you perceive of the Earth as a sacred place, what shall you do to clear the moneylenders out of the temple? We leave this to your consideration.” Q’uo, March 19, 2006

The entities from Mars and Maldek that are on Earth now are hopeful of becoming better stewards of Earth than they were of their previous island homes in space. The feeling of the group karma and the need to make restitution for previous errors is a subconscious driving force for their current incarnations that they hope will bubble up into their current incarnations and allow a more consciously loving attitude to develop for our Mother Earth. We can hope that the pain of past mistakes is balanced by partaking in the growing current of concern for how to become better stewards of Gaia.

In the above quote Q’uo gave us sound advice that we can move most effectively into the future as stewards of Earth if we can remember to connect with our heart of hearts and radiate that eternal flame of love that is the consciousness of the Creator that enlivens and guides us if we but seek it. Letting our love of our Mother Earth guide us as to how we shall behave as her stewards is the most obvious way of spending our energies most effectively.

All of Gaia’s resources of wind, water, air, soil, and humanity are interconnected in the most basic sense to create a perpetual system of mutual survival and growth. If we can simply focus in our meditations, conversations, and actions on how to help this unified system of energies operate most effectively, that flame of love will be a faithful guide and sustaining force. We can begin in our own homes and gardens and expand outwardly into our communities and our country to do what so many now are advocating: becoming better stewards of our environment and our Earth. As for clearing the money lenders out of the temple, I am guessing that it might be most helpful if we let our flame of love shine forth to them by the example we set of how to be better stewards of Mother Earth and invite them to join us in this dance.

In the following quote Q’uo speaks of another level of stewards of planet Earth:

The Guardians of your planet are a group, some of whom are inner planes entities and some of whom are Confederation entities. There is a rotation of those who are responsible for planet Earth at any one time but a constant number of those who guard and keep stewardship of the planet, its people, and its resources, and by that we do not mean the kind of natural resources of which your peoples general think when they say the word “resources,” but rather we speak of the metaphysical resources of the planet as it moves through its own ascension process, shall we say. Q’uo, April 1, 2006.

Besides seeing the population of Earth as having a role to play in being stewards of Earth, Q’uo said that there are beings within the inner planes of our planet and also members of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the One Infinite Creator who work in various combinations at different times to serve as stewards of the resources of planet Earth and her population. Q’uo also said that the type of resources these inner plane entities are dealing with are those of a spiritual nature which will aid our Mother Earth in her ascension into the fourth density of love and understanding. This is a type of stewardship that comes from what you might call unseen hands and hearts to help our third-density efforts to serve as stewards of Earth.

In the following quote Ra mentions the inner plane entities and their duties:

7.9 Questioner: I have a question here, I believe, about that Council from Jim. Who are the members, and how does the Council function?

Ra: I am Ra. The members of the Council are representatives from the Confederation and from those vibratory levels of your inner planes bearing responsibility for your third density. The names are not important because there are no names. Your mind/body/spirit complexes request names and so, in many cases, the vibratory sound complexes which are consonant with the vibratory distortions of each entity are used. However, the name concept is not part of the Council. If names are requested, we will attempt them. However, not all have chosen names.

Q’uo also gives us another means by which each of us, as Players on the Enhanced Gameboard of Life, can offer a higher form of stewardship to Mother Earth:

So, your situation is that you are, as far as possible, in the great realm of eternity from spirit and more full of illusion than you have ever been or will ever be. This is a bright, flashing moment—a parenthesis in eternity—during which you make the choice of how you will proceed upon the great road which wends its way at last to the Source and Ending of all things.

We would ask you to be aware in all things of what the choice truly is, how deeply it begins. You don’t simply choose your actions; you choose your perceptions. If you are living a stewardship of the love of the one infinite Creator, you will gaze upon all circumstances without fear and simply plumb that situation as deeply as possible in search of options which are loving both to the self and to other selves.

So, all places are places of power if that place is your geographical, topological home in this illusion. We would not have entities dashing off to the “Mt. Shastas” so prevalent within your literature. With all those well-meaning entities in one spot, surely the Earth itself would tip and be unbalanced! Your home is where you are; your place of power is where you stand; and that which you receive is as pure and complete as you may allow it be. Q’uo, April 21, 1991.

Once again the spiritual path of the Player is graven in the present moment, within its home on Mother Earth, and unfolds from the Player’s intention to be a steward of Mother Earth.

This morning I ran some errands with my first stop being at Feeder’s Supply where I bought more bird seed. The deer have started eating the birdseed that I have been feeding to the birds, chipmunks, and squirrels, so I need to buy birdseed more often as the deer eat it very rapidly. My second stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some Impatiens for the area where I planted the Alyssum yesterday to give the area more color. My last stop was at Walgreen’s where I bought some paper towels and strawberry ice cream.

This afternoon I went outside and planted the Impatiens and then used my trimmer to walk around the yard and trim the grass in the areas where my big mower couldn’t get last week.

The Happy Tune Of Silence

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

The busy hubbub of the crowded city is enfolded in silence. And in that silence is enfolded transformative power.

Now, within the meditation, that silence is greeted. And as the spirit listens, it becomes aware of the infinite color and variety of the flashing face of spirit.

Now is the time, in silence and in meditation, to embrace that seemingly angry hubbub of city and all that it implies of civilization’s distresses and discomforts.

Now is the time to realize a sense of the power of the silence so that, as you walk from meditation into daylight, your steps may not falter because of what you see or hear or sense. For you are the vehicle of eternity, and it is your choice to live in power or in oppression. Find the silence and raise high its endless, happy tune.

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

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of love and open our hearts, minds, and souls to send love, light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density.

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the 102 quote comes from Chapter Seven and the concept of interaction between systems:

Interaction Between Systems

Therefore, you are spiritual beings dwelling in a material and physical world. Everything that is at the center of your being calls out for the Creator and sees life from the point of view of spirit. Yet, you have been brought into a culture which encourages precisely the opposite bent of thought. Your culture encourages you to release thoughts of spirituality in favor of thoughts of functionality, economics, socialization, doing what is expected, and so forth. These two energies are a dynamic that are with each entity within third density to one extent or another for his entire incarnation.” Q’uo, May 6, 2007

Q’uo reminded us that we are spiritual beings that are living in a material world. All the concerns that we have for that physical world, in order to be most helpful to that physical world, need to be fruit of our spiritual journeys which sees all of the creation as one thing: the One Infinite Creator. In this way we may more effectively bring our inner fire of love to bear as the framework in which we see humanity, weather, wind, water, and our planet itself all linked together as energetic expressions of the One Creator. So if we wish to coordinate an interaction between all these systems—and any others as well—we might ask ourselves questions such as “How would love function most effectively in this system?” “How would love be manifested in aiding this system to function for the welfare of all?” “What is keeping love from being expressed in this system?” These are questions best pondered in our hearts in contemplation, meditation and prayer, and our guides and higher self are very likely to provide us answers as flashes of intuition, coincidences, and synchronicities.

In the following quote Carla encouraged us to remember that we are all one and what we do affects all systems, people, and the Earth itself.

“Whatever we do, whatever we live in the world to add to its beauty and decrease its suffering, helps. Some of the outer ways of serving others take a degree of toughness which many awakened spirits may not have. If we identify ourselves with those sensitized souls and find ourselves shrinking from committee, caucus and protest, then let us resolve instead to develop our ability to think and envision globally, to see ourselves as one planet, one folk, one population. We are the people of Earth. It is up to us to give to the Earth our song of being and of love, in hopes of fulfilling our service to the planet and benefitting all people. Let us place and keep peace within our hearts daily, and invest faith in the positive future of humankind as we move through this end time, where a new world is being made within us and within our planet. May we sing with the grass, the wind and the stars, of love and light and unity.” Carla L. Rueckert, A Wanderer’s Handbook, pg. 472

Carla said that we can choose to be of service to humanity and Mother Earth in either outer or inner ways. Outer ways of working politically, socially, or economically may not appeal to the spiritual seeker of truth because it is so easy to get lost in the mundane world and its many seemingly separating ways of accomplishing the goals of aiding our planet and all people in achieving harmonious solutions to problems like global warming, homelessness, poverty, health care for all, immigration, equal representation at all levels of government and so many other avenues of consensus reality.

I was most inspired by Carla’s inner ways of service to humanity and Mother Earth. She emphasized that there is a new Earth being made within us as we keep our hearts open in love and have faith in the process of the evolution of humanity into a social memory complex that can move into the fourth density of love and understanding. This is the goal of all positive third-density seekers of truth throughout the universe. Once we have made that Choice to be of service to others we have made the first steps into unity with all whom we serve. Each day brings us closer and closer to this goal. Q’uo described the path that all spiritual seekers of truth may follow to achieve this goal:

When an entity within incarnation awakens and grasps the basics of choice, that entity becomes a magical being. And so you have become a magical being, my sister. The challenge for you now lies in your ability to persevere with utmost dedication and focus on service while simultaneously releasing your expectations, so that those things which are new may flow into your pattern with the least possible resistance.

We do not say this simply to you, my sister, for you are part of a very large group of entities. And we should say we talk about not one group of entities but groups of such groups that have all come together as planned to help to shift the consciousness of this beloved planet which you have so enjoyed, and which you so dearly, dearly wish to serve at this time.

That which shall freely shift consciousness upon this planet cannot be found in the patterns of your culture. Although a listening ear may hear them in the patterns of your religions, the public and overt side of religion has left those voices out. Those voices of love must be your voices and they must sing a new song. And they must not do this singly. They must do this globally.

And so it is occurring. As more and more entities awaken, you and many others shall conspire, in the name of love, to create an increasingly powerful paradigm that is new. How shall that novelty be shaped, when that which you already know has proven to be effete?

Where do you find your sturdiness? Where do you find the heart of meaning?

We ask you these questions, because it is in your hands, rather than ours. It is in the hands of the people of this planet rather than in the hands of those who would serve and help you to make the choices that open you to becoming a being capable of creating outside the cultural box.

We lift to you a beacon and that beacon is yourself. We ask you to see yourself for the first time, clearly and lucidly. Light courses through you, my sister, not from you. There is no effort to being who you are. There is only the removal of blockage from the passage of light. Q’uo, April 25, 2006.

As we become beacons of light we also become Players on the Enhanced Gameboard of Life that can use love to connect all the systems which are the entirety of our Mother Earth.

This morning I spent a couple of hours correcting a problem with how Chapters Three and Four of 102 were not the ones that contained the expanded material that I have recently written and posted there. I talked to Austin about this problem, and he was not aware of how this might have happened, but hopefully it won’t happen again. The I made an errand run with my first stop at Feeder’s Supply to buy a couple more hummingbird feeders since the old ones were leaking the sugar syrup. My second stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market to buy some food for myself and some Alyssum for a garden in my front yard. My last stop was at the vet’s to pick up some meds and supplies for Bosco.

This afternoon once again I pumped half of the water out of the fish pond and refilled it with fresh water in hopes of clarifying the murky nature of the water recently. While the pond was refilling I transplanted some Alyssum in one of the flower gardens in the front yard where the flowers I had transplanted there a month ago stopped blooming, probably because they needed more light. Then I transplanted those flowers into the Spirea garden behind the fish pond.

Increasing Your Joy

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

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

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

That peace I leave with you, now and always.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of love and open our hearts, minds, and souls to send love, light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density.

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. The 102 quote today comes from Chapter Seven and the concept of water:

Water

“Water is that aspect or element of the creation which contains the sacred energies of the Archangel Gabriel. Water holds gifts and powers that move from the simplest physical observations to the most abstruse and occult applications of spiritual principles. But the central gift of water is its acceptance of the impressions of consciousness. Water can be magnetized to hold pure emotion. Consequently, water is a very magical element, a crystal that can be solid, liquid or gaseous, and yet is a crystal in terms of the way that it can hold ideas, thoughts and emotions.

[. . .]

The intimacy of thought and water is very appropriate to consider as you look at your physical body. Your thoughts are impressing every cell of your body. You are a very watery being. A large percentage of your body is water. You are, therefore, a creature of the tides of your inner emotions. Be aware of how easy it is to magnetize water with an idea or a thought or, most importantly, an emotion. Tend your everyday self to thoughts of thankfulness, thanksgiving, praise, appreciation and joy. Remember how powerful you really are and impress your own body with the fire of your love. Let that love do its healing and organizing work within your physical body.” Q’uo, April 2, 2006

Q’uo described water as a “sacred energy” (along with fire, air, and earth) and then eloquently provided a magical description of the nature of water which can be seen as a crystal whether it is solid, liquid, or gas. Just as a crystal in jewel form can be charged to hold a certain vibration or desire, so can water be charged or “be magnetized to hold pure emotions.” An example of this is what Ra had to say about the water in the chalice that Don and I would charge with our love so that Carla could drink it after the session was over and be revitalized as Ra mentioned in 1.13:

The charging of the water is done by those present placing their hands over the glass and visualizing the power of love entering the water. This will charge that very effective medium with those vibrations.

In the last paragraph of Q’uo’s quote they applied the nature of water to our human bodies which are at least sixty percent water. Our thoughts and emotions impress every cell of our body with their nature, whether they be of difficult and disharmonious vibrations or purely positive vibrations. Q’uo strongly recommended that whenever possible we use the feelings of praise, thanksgiving, joy, and especially our love, to imbue the water within our physical body with these life-giving and healing emotions. The power of our love can imbue water with its creative and healing power. Ra went even further when they said:

Your own nature is water in that you as mind/body/spirit complexes are easily impressed and moved. Indeed, this is the very fiber and nature of your journey and vigil in this density: to not only be moved but to instruct yourself as to the preferred manner of your movement in mind, body, and spirit.” 88.23

In this statement Ra suggested that there is a special quality of water that allows us to determine how we wish to live our lives. This is possible because our “nature is water”. This suggests that at the very depths of our soul we are fluid, liquid, malleable, and able to create changes in our consciousness at will.

With all of these magical qualities of water in mind, I would think that the waters upon the deeps of our oceans, lakes, and rivers could also carry emotions of the mass consciousness of humanity within them as surely as the soil of Earth also absorbs these same emotions. The health of the population of the planet could well be reflected in the water that flows, like blood through our veins, around the circulatory system of Mother Earth and further reflects the health or disease of humanity. Just as each of us can help to heal disease and sustain health by the “fire of our love” projected into our bodies, so can humanity project its distress into Mother Earth’s bodies of water thereby increasing the reflection of anger and separation that has become the primary metaphysical manifestation of humanity for thousands of years. In turn, each of us can also imbue any body of water on Earth with our joy, praise, thanksgiving, and especially with our love as a kind of spiritual remedy for the ills of our planet. In this quote Q’uo shares analogy of these thoughts:

The way that energy moves through water is pertinent here, for as water is pushed by a force from behind, it expresses itself in a way which is not from here to there. For water simply pushes on its force to the next drop of water to the next so that something that occurred off the coast of Japan can eventually express itself upon the shores of your beach of California. The same energy, the same reason, is infinitely expressed across the ever interconnected drops of water. Study the way that water works to see a little bit more into how entities come together in their patterns and how they may express in ways that do not show but yet have their effect on a distant shore. Many times there is the hope of seeing a result and there is a demand put on service that it be quantifiable. This is an easily understood desire, to be able to measure the service that one is, that one can offer. And yet it is not always at all obvious how the service is going to express. For it may express not simply within a small pond of being, not in the immediate ripples but rather at a distant shore when that wave that you began washes up and expresses itself finally in just such and such a way. Q’uo, April 7, 2002.

And in this quote Q’uo gives us another way of using the metaphysical power of water in pursuing our own spiritual journeys:

We speak of unity using water as a symbol, not only because your singing offered this image for our use in a tuned manner, but also because water is indeed a very appropriate symbol for the path that each of you, as drops of water, may understand himself to be taking as you seek the infinite sea of the creation. A drop of water may seem to be quite powerless and you as an individual may feel lacking or limited in some way in some situation. But, my friends, water is continuous and is not separated from itself. It may fall in drops in service to the fruits of the earth, but as it gathers and moves towards the great oceans, does it not carve out mighty channels from sheer luck that men could not hew so well with all their might? Water is quiet, and yet when stirred can be the most mighty of avengers, changing physical landscapes in minutes.

In your meditations, then, my friends, take each limitation and lack that you may feel that you have experienced, each disappointment that you feel in yourself or in others and offer them up as drops of water, to see them dissolve in a pure, clear ocean of the infinite Creator. Then, my friends, let the rainbow of sunlight through this water fill your heart and send you forth to serve the Creator, each in your own way and yet each a part of the great ocean of being. You are serving yourself, for all that you meet and all that you seek is yourself. If you love the ocean of the Creator then, my friends, you will learn to love each drop of water, each apparently individualized portion of that ocean, yourself and all others, all circumstances and all times. Q’uo, October 25, 1981.

This is the way that the Player on the Enhanced Gameboard of Life sees the world around it and the world within it.

Yesterday and overnight we got an inch of much-needed rain, so this morning I went outside and sprayed my Giant Hibiscus with the fungicidal spray that needs to be done every seven days or after any rain.

This afternoon I went back outside and used my chainsaw to cut up the dead stalks of a portion of one of my Burning Bushes in the area to the left of the fish pond. I also trimmed a Honeysuckle bush out of the forsythia in the back yard.

The Abiding Peace

I am the spirit of the principle of the consciousness of Christ and I greet you in that love.

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

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

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

Peace be with you, now and always.

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

Weather

60.20 Questioner: Thank you. In trying to understand the energies, creative energies, it has occurred to me that I really do not understand why unusable heat is generated as our Earth moves from third into fourth density. I know it has to do with disharmony between the vibrations of third and fourth density but why this would show up as a physical heating within the Earth is beyond me. Can you enlighten me on that?

Ra: I am Ra. The concepts are somewhat difficult to penetrate in your language. However, we shall attempt to speak to the subject. If an entity is not in harmony with its circumstances it feels a burning within. The temperature of the physical vehicle does not yet rise, only the heat of the temper or the tears, as we may describe this disharmony. However, if an entity persists for a long period of your space/time in feeling this emotive heat and disharmony, the entire body complex will begin to resonate to this disharmony, and the disharmony will then show up as the cancer or other degenerative distortion from what you call health.

When an entire planetary system of peoples and cultures repeatedly experiences disharmony on a great scale the earth under the feet of these entities shall begin to resonate with this disharmony. Due to the nature of the physical vehicle, disharmony shows up as a blockage of growth or an uncontrolled growth since the primary function of a mind/body/spirit complex’s bodily complex is growth and maintenance. In the case of your planet the purpose of the planet is the maintenance of orbit and the proper location or orientation with regards to other cosmic influences. In order to have this occurring properly the interior of your sphere is hot in your physical terms. Thus instead of uncontrolled growth you begin to experience uncontrolled heat and its expansive consequences
.

In this question Don asked Ra why unusable heat is generated as our Mother Earth makes the transition into the fourth density. He said that he understood that this heat was related to the disharmonious vibrations between the third and fourth density, which I believe was his way of saying that the current third-density vibrations of the population of Earth were not in harmony with the fourth-density vibrations of love and understanding.

Ra began their answer by describing how this type of disharmony among entities on Earth was like anger manifesting in a person via losing the temper and producing tears and a burning within it. Then Ra said that if this anger continues over a period of time the body complex would begin to resonate with this anger and the result would be a disease, most likely cancer.

Then Ra extended their metaphor to include all of the cultures and people of Earth being in the situation of experiencing this heat of anger so that the very earth beneath their feet would begin to resonate with this anger. The physical bodies begin to experience the “uncontrolled growth, or blockage of growth” which affects our Earth. Mother Earth herself needs to maintain her orbit and relationship with other cosmic forces, and her core is hot in order to help her do so. But when there is so much anger in the population of Mother Earth this heat of anger causes the hot interior of Earth to experience “uncontrolled heat and its expansive consequences.”  These expansive consequences are severe weather systems that manifest as volcanoes, earth quakes, and tidal waves that cause a great deal of destruction in order to bleed off this heat of anger in a slow, steady pace that will allow Mother Earth to eventually blend her vibrations with the fourth density’s love vibrations.

Q’uo also had some thoughts to share on this same topic:

Firstly, we would say to you that you will find that there is a natural spike in the natural disasters of your planet that began perhaps a half century ago or more, and that this spike is continuing into the present day because of the need for your planet to process the heat of aggression, anger and violence that has been pounded down into the Earth in various of its bodies within third density throughout the greater part of your third-density experience. Perhaps you have a good understanding of this because of the way anger and violent emotions cause you to process and go through a great deal of heavy emotional feelings. If you attempt to stifle them or talk yourself out of them, you soon find that it is useless. These feelings need to be processed.

The planet itself is alive, and it is the recipient of an increasing amount of pressure from these negative emotions of its people. It is attempting to balance itself, to heal itself of these distortions. The energy shall continue behind these extreme weather events to cause a record number of weather events for your next few years, shall we say. Gradually, and we cannot say when this might occur, there will be a lessening of these events as the energies are processed and expelled from the planetary body.” Q’uo, March 19, 2011

Q’uo agreed with Ra’s assessment of the thousands of years of disharmonious relationships between Earth’s populations—whether between countries, regions, communities, or families—produced the heat of anger that has been absorbed by the crust of Mother Earth. Mother Earth, as a conscious entity, has been slowly releasing this heat in the last half century in the form of natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and tsunamis. This is a necessary process that allows Mother Earth to be able to welcome the fourth-density vibrations that have been engulfing our planet for a number of years as our planet itself is now in the fourth density. This is the way that Mother Earth processes and heals the negative emotions and actions of her population.

We must remember that much of the population of Earth has come from other planets such as Maldek and Mars where disharmonies were devastating. There are also entities on Earth now from other third-density planets where the disharmony was great enough that no harvest was possible for them, so these entities chose our Earth as their next third-density opportunity to try for Harvest.

All of these entities have brought with them the energies of aggression and destruction which are embedded in the roots of their consciousness as a kind of inertia, or default setting, of their interactions with others. With each incarnation these entities are ever hopeful of making restitution for previous errors.

So, those souls who reincarnated on Earth from Mars and Maldek have advanced through many incarnations on Earth, sometimes repeating the tendency to ride roughshod over alternative points of view, especially cooperation, harmonization and communication.This has also contributed to the difficulty of reigning in the production of carbon dioxide, cleaning up the environment, producing safer energy alternatives, or making any choice that would cost time, money, image, or effort. It is hoped that multiple incarnations of practice may, indeed, perfect these repeated attempts at balancing separation and discord with a unified effort toward all-compassionate love.

Q’uo finished their thought by saying that this process of the slow release of heat causing natural disasters would continue for an indefinite time into the future. Ra also agreed with this assessment and said that the complete transition into the fourth density could take between 100 and 700 of our years due to the volatility of our peoples. People, like planets, need to process this tendency towards anger and violence rather than let it fester and grow. Those Players on the Enhanced Gameboard of life that are scattered around the world can be most helpful at this time as they teach others how to process such catalyst via their writings, their classes, and in their everyday lives.

Though such manifestations of service to others are truly helpful, I believe that each of us can also help our Mother Earth and her children in a way that shares the unconditional love of our very being, that quality of the Creator that comes alive in us as we meditate, contemplate, and pray to do the will of the One. In the following quote Q’uo also had another suggestion as to how Mother Earth and many of her children might deal with severe weather conditions brought about by the disharmonies of Her population:

Thanks to the many loving efforts of lightworkers such as this group all over your globe, working in relatively unconscious unity, but nevertheless being very effective in increasing the light on planet Earth by their loving affection for it, it is as though this change in magnetic polarity is being accomplished step, by step, by step, rather than all at once.

As you see your planet experiencing many weather-related phenomena, you can see your mother, Gaia, at work, doing what is necessary to shift vibrationally and magnetically in order to align with fourth-density energies. The mother suffers in order that the child may thrive. Such is the labor of Gaia.

As these inconveniences continue, we would ask that each of you refrain completely from fear.

It will seem to be an increasingly logical response to the news of the day to experience fear. When these natural feelings of fear arise, we would ask you to remember that you are the light of the world.

Each of you, by your very nature, is a crystal that receives, transmits and transmutes energy. That energy is the infinite love and light of the one Creator, which streams in infinite supply from the heart of the planet itself into the energy bodies of each of you and out through the crowns of your head, where you function just as does a pyramid.

The energy that you create, bless and give to the Creator by keeping your heart open and your love and faith strong winds itself into a golden net that surrounds the planet with love.

Angels guard this work and join you in weaving this net of love. This works by blending third-density energies with the fourth density that is birthing at this time.

We thank each of you for creating within yourself the capacity for increased faith. We ask you to attempt, in each moment where fear might be a logical reaction, to move into your heart and find that place of faith in which you know that whether you are in life or in death, the Creator is living through you and you are the Creator or part of the creative principle within flesh. You are not an entity that shall be stopped by death in any way. Q’uo, November 21, 2005.

This morning I ran a couple of errands with the first stop being at Feeder’s Supply where I bought some cat food for Benny and Bosco. Then I stopped at Pauls’ Fruit Market where I bought some food for myself. When I got back I took part in a zoom meet with the Heartland Law of One Study Group based in Chicago. It was Q & A session focusing on the information that we collected during the Ra contact, and the questions covered a lot of metaphysical ground and were very heart-oriented. I greatly enjoyed our conversation, and, once again I had never before heard the great majority of the questions in other zoom meets which just goes to show that every seeker of truth is unique.

This afternoon I went outside and tried to solve the murky water problem in the fish pond even though I cleaned the filters yesterday. So I pumped out a little more than half of the water and then put the hose in it to refill it with fresh water. While the pond was refilling I completed the spreading of seed and straw in the back yard in Dana’s Crystal Corner and also in the front yard around the Wuthering Heights Mound. Within five minutes a heavy rain began to fall just in time to water my newly seeded areas of the yard, and I enjoyed standing in the rain and getting soaked because this was a much-needed rain.

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

Rejoicing And Praising

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

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

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

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

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

Peace be with each of you.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the 102 quote comes from Chapter Seven and the concept of multi-systems thinking and humanity is one of the systems of Earth:

Multi-systems thinking

Humanity is one of the systems of Earth

You have never experienced life in your totally natural physical environment because you have been on a time lateral in quarantine for thousands of years. It was hoped, by quarantining the planet from further outside influences of any kind, that the free will of the body of the tribe of humankind would gather itself and would begin to address realizations of how ethical choices might be made in a way that progressed from the basic feeling that, when threatened, the proper response was likely to be violent, for that got the job done—and right quickly.

Consequently, riding upon this time lateral as you have, you have experienced repeated waves of empire as they have flourished and fallen only to see another empire rise and fall and another and another. If you look at your outer environment you may see these forces at work even now, moving in a repetitive manner, satisfying that portion of the tribe of humankind’s deeper mind which is used to these energies and feels comfortable with them, not because they are good but because they are what planet Earth is all about.

The breaking forth of new life into this dark world is a common occurrence because the light cannot be put out by darkness. And person after person after person has moments of brilliant insight in which they see that responding to violence with violence is not a wise move.

More and more of your entities are investing time, talent and treasure in finding different responses to the surrounding darkness based not upon the darkness itself but upon the light that comes from within the darkness and which the darkness cannot extinguish. Entities focus upon that first candle of light. And that tiny illumination illumines more. And then that illumines more. And a process of lightening the consciousness of yourself begins.

The time is coming and indeed is nigh at hand when something you might call a tipping point is imminent. And indeed it stands before you at this time. What is that tipping point? That tipping point is a straw vote, shall we say, an informal poll, if you will, of the tribes of humankind, to see if the majority of entities want to separate themselves forever from any path except violence or if they want to progress into fourth density and beyond.

There are entities from fifth density on the service-to-self path that are attempting a coup, shall we say, of this train of humankind running along this parallel time track. They would like it not to rejoin the main track. The guardians of this planet and those light givers within your planetary forces, both seen and unseen, have all moved heaven and Earth, literally, to create a slowing of the forces of time so that every possible instant may be given to the development of planet Earth’s human population to the point where the vote of the straw poll is for service to others and not for service to self; for radiance, peace and harmony rather than contraction, war and hostility as a background to the everyday life.” Q’uo, February 11, 2007

In this quote Q’uo said that the population of Earth has never had the opportunity to experience the normal manner of development within this third-density illusion because we have been on a “time lateral in quarantine for thousands of years”. This quarantining of Earth had the purpose of giving the collective consciousness of humanity the chance to move from habitual bellicose responses when threatened to more equitable solutions of peace and harmony. It is important that the population of Earth realize that it is the most active and powerful system of energies on Earth that can be used for any desired outcome. If humanity, or the majority of humanity, could realize the damage done to our Mother Earth by thousands of years of war, pollution of our water, earth, and air, and the continuing divisions of one group of people against another group, then it would be possible for humanity to set about finding solutions to these problems. However, at present there is only a relatively small percentage of Earth’s population that sees the need for these changes.

In spite of this quarantine that Q’uo spoke about, the deeper mind of humanity–that has been influenced by many other planetary populations who have chosen Earth to repeat third density–has continued to follow the path of bellicosity as one empire after another has risen and fallen as a continuing sad eulogy to the times and types of violence.

However, Q’uo went on to say that in the midst of this seeming all-pervasive darkness that a small but growing flickering of light within many souls is producing the illumination of spirit that seeks reconciliation rather than retribution. This light and love are within the very fabric of our being and of the entire creation. We become more aware of it as we consciously decide to seek it as a means of being service to others within our family of Mother Earth. Q’uo said that as a tribe of humanity we are now approaching a “tipping point” where it is possible for a choice of service to others or service to self to be made.

They went on to say that fifth-density negative entities are attempting a kind of coup that they hope will divert any such positive choice and stay the course of bellicosity. By so doing those crusaders of the Orion group hope to add Earth to their empire and increase their own power. Q’uo concluded by saying that many forces of light, such as the guardians and other seen and unseen spirits, have “moved heaven and Earth, literally, to create a slowing of the forces of time” so that Earth’s population may chose peace and harmony over war and contraction as the rhythm of their everyday dance of existence on Earth.

It is also very likely that both Wanderers and those entities with dual-activated bodies have incarnated in greater and greater numbers and have joined the growing presence of open-hearted entities on Earth to vote for love, light, and unity. Both of these types of entities would see the disharmony on Earth as a call for assistance and a great opportunity to be of service to others as Players on the Enhanced Gameboard of Life. In 63.14-.15, Ra described these entities with dual activated bodies and why they are on Earth now:

Questioner: You are saying, then, that for the transition from third to fourth density for one of the entities with doubly activated bodies, in order to make the transition the third-density body will go through the process of what we call death. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. The third and fourth, combination, density’s body will die according to the necessity of third-density mind/body/spirit complex distortions.

We may respond to the heart of your questioning by noting that the purpose of such combined activation of mind/body/spirit complexes is that such entities, to some extent, consciously are aware of those fourth-density understandings which third density is unable to remember due to the forgetting. Thus fourth-density experience may be begun with the added attraction, to an entity oriented towards service to others, of dwelling in a troubled third-density environment and offering its love and compassion.

Questioner: Would the purpose in transitioning to Earth prior to the complete changeover then be for the experience to be gained here during the harvesting process?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct. These entities are not Wanderers in the sense that this planetary sphere is their fourth-density home planet. However, the experience of this service is earned only by those harvested third-density entities which have demonstrated a great deal of orientation towards service to others. It is a privilege to be allowed this early an incarnation as there is much experiential catalyst in service to other-selves at this harvesting.

Hopefully, as time progresses to the end of our third-density experience here on Mother Earth, Ra’s wild card possibility in 65.12 may come to pass:

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

Thusly would the “straw vote” be cast in favor of the positive polarity of service to others.

This morning I pumped out a quarter of the water in the fish pond and used it to water the flowers and shrubs in the gardens around the fish pond. Then I cleaned the filters for the pump and fertilized the water lilies. Then I refilled the pond with fresh water and added chlorine neutralizer. I also used a fungicide spray on my Giant Perennial Hibiscuses that should stop the brown spot fungus that killed the blooms last summer. After this work was complete I ran a couple of errands with my first stop being at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I picked up some a couple of items for myself. My next stop was at The Home Depot where I bought some grass seed, and then I drove to Lowe’s to buy three bales of straw.

This afternoon I used my seed spreader to spread the grass seed in both corners of the back yard, around, the Sun Mandala behind the garage but didn’t have enough straw to finish the job in the front yard, so I drove to Lowe’s and bought three more bales. I hope to finish the job tomorrow.

The Seeds Of Godhood

I am the spirit of the living Christ and I greet you in the full consciousness of that divine love which is the love of Jesus the Christ.

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

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

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

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

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

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of love and open our hearts, minds, and souls to send love, light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density.

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. The 102 quote today comes from Chapter Seven and the concept of the value of you nonlocalized:

The value of being you

Non-localized

Each of you is part of that Creator and the deepest portion of you that there is, is made entirely of love. It is a love that waits for you beyond the reaches of personality. It is a consciousness that resides within you but which is entirely silent. It is almost as though you had within you the character of the Sleeping Beauty that is awakened by the kiss of the Prince. [2] Your inner nature can sleep for a hundred years or you can kiss it awake at any time by paying attention to that inner nature, by seeking it and wooing it as you would a maiden. And when you penetrate into your own open heart, and you experience the love of the Creator that lies therein, it is indeed the Balm of Gilead. It is a healing, strengthening presence, one that it is possible to experience and that it is very helpful to experience. When you have moved through the gateway to larger life, you, as a soul stream, become aware again of the entire soul stream. Your awareness opens up and expands and as a natural concomitant of that the personality shell drops away. Q’uo, October 23, 2010

This footnote goes with this quote: [2] The classic fairy tale of the Sleeping Beauty was first written down by Charles Perrault in his book, Contes de ma Mère l’Oye—in English, Tales of Mother Goose. It is perhaps best known to Americans from the Walt Disney film of the same name. After being cast under a spell for a hundred years, Sleeping Beauty is rescued by the handsome Prince with a kiss of love. They of course live happily ever after, even according to the well-named Brothers Grimm.

Of course, the non-localized nature of ourselves is the One Creator which resides within our heart of hearts and is reflected as pure love. This is the truest nature of our being and, for the most part, is silent during our lives although in mystical moments of realization it is possible for this love to come alive within us as a result of our courting it and seeking it as the truest nature of our selves that we can ever know. Then the healing and renewing powers of this all-embracing love can result in our becoming a new being, risen from the ashes of the refining fires of earthly catalyst and able to share this power of love with everyone around us. If this mystical union with our own deep consciousness of love does not happen during our incarnations, we can be assured that when we pass through death’s door, and realize larger life, our personality shell will drop away, and we will once again reunite with our “entire soul stream”and this deep consciousness of love. In the following quote Q’uo reveals a path that we may take to help us realize ourselves as the Creator:

The beginning of becoming the Creator, as you are aware from those teachings of the ones known as Ra, is to attempt to know yourself in as deep and various a manner as possible, to know your basic emotions, your desires, your abilities, your experience, and how you see the world about you and the world within you. This involves looking at your daily round of activities carefully to perceive the catalyst that has been harvested from your daily round of activities, and to process that catalyst as the nutritious type of spiritual food that it is so that you may grow from ingesting the balanced vision of the catalyst you have experienced.

As this process of seeking continues throughout your lifetime, you will then have the opportunity to accept all of the qualities that have appeared within your life experience and have them balanced in a conscious fashion in your meditative states on a regular basis. The acceptance of all that you are … And you are all things, my sister—the mind that you have, the soul that you have, and the spirit that you have contain all that there is. You are, indeed, the microcosm of the One Creator.

As you are able to accept yourself as whole and perfect, even with imperfections within you, then you are prepared to become the Creator, for you have discovered the Creator within you as a portion of the knowledge of your being. [When] you have accepted that Creator within you as you go through the balancing of catalyst, you have open to you a door which allows you to see yourself as the Creator experiencing itself in every interaction with every other self that you ever have had, ever shall have.

This becoming of the Creator is opening a door to a greater experience of yourself as the One that has made all that there is. This is a gift that is given to the seeking self that enters into meditation and utilizes its will to serve as that pathway to the One Creator: exercising the great desire to know the One, to be the One, to express the One, letting that desire and that will open that door widely so that the One in all its glory, power, peace and majesty may express itself to you, not just through the door, but within your self as well. This is a process of a lifetime of seeking that can, shall we say, end in a moment of inspiration and enlightenment, where the light that shines comes from within you and from without you, and is one with you. Q’uo, March 30, 2019.

This is the great journey that every seeker of truth undertakes when they become conscious of the process of spiritual evolution. We move from the localized sense of a separate and individual self into the fullness of the One Creator which is within us and every person on Earth as well as every being of any kind within any density of the infinite creation. This is truly the work of the Player on the Enhanced Gameboard of Life.

This morning I decided to vacuum the first floor of the house as my first project of the day. Then I ran some errands with the first stop being AutoZone where I got some oil for my big mower. My next stop was at Speedway Gas to buy some gas for the big mower. My third stop was at the bank to withdraw some cash. My last stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market to buy some food for myself.

This afternoon I went outside and walked around the yard hoping to find the earring of a Homecoming attendee that she lost the last day of Homecoming. However, I wasn’t able to do so, but I will keep my eye out for it as I am working around the yard for the rest of the summer.

Suffering In The Desert

I am the spirit of the living Christ, the principle of the full consciousness of love.

Overnight there has been rain! And where before the earth was parched, now it thirsts no longer. In the wake of the rain there spring up countless flowers, the fruit of the blessing of water.

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

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

We leave you in peace, both now and ever.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of love and open our hearts, minds, and souls to send love, light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density.
