(Jim channeling)

I am Q’uo, and greet each again in love and light. At
this time we would offer ourselves in the capacity of
attempting to respond to queries which those
present may find have risen in the mind. As always,
we remind each that we give but our opinion and
wish that to be understood in order that we may
speak freely without overweighing any consideration.
May we ask if there is a query with which we may
begin?

J: Yes, I have a question. It goes along the lines of
the words that were just delivered. I’ve heard a lot of
different things about the thought of the person
[that] “takes their own life.” Some people seem to
think that you hardly have a right to do that, and
that you build up an awful lot of extra lessons, if you
will, that you have to learn, as karma as some people
want to call it, crime and punishment, however you
want to view it. But I’ve heard other schools of
thought that say that a person, since they are in
charge of their own life and responsible for it, and a
portion of the Creator, if you determine that that’s
the end of it, you’ve done all you can here, you are
justified, or you’ve had the right to go ahead and get
out of this life.

Like I say, I’ve heard that both ways, and I tend to
sort of lean toward the last one, but then again my
gut feeling, my emotions, would sort of make me
afraid to do something like that for fear that I would
have to come back and learn a lot of things over
again. Can you comment? And is the answer to that
maybe just dependent upon the person’s belief
system, maybe it’s that sort of thing?

I am Q’uo, and to answer in a general fashion is
misleading, for each entity is one which pursues a
course of learning which has been determined by
that entity’s higher self to be appropriate, each
course being pursued within the confines of what
you call an incarnation, where the scope or reach of
view and experience is limited by birth and death
and the veil which separates the conscious and
unconscious minds. Thus, it is not so much the act
itself within any one incarnation which carries the
potential of building a momentum or bias which
needs to be balanced at some point within another
incarnation that is of importance, but the biasing or
building of momentum itself, no matter what the
action is which builds this momentum.

For each entity within each incarnation seeks to
pursue an exploration of the creation of the one
Creator in a fashion which in a cumulative sense
throughout all incarnations shall build as a structure
of the soul, a foundation and framework which is
balanced in nature, in order that the further
evolutionary process may be constructed upon firm
ground and partake of a symmetrical strength that
reflects the wholeness and balance of creation. Thus
does each individualized portion of the Creator
reflect the wholeness and balance of the one Creator.
The entity within any incarnation is the one Creator
with the full rights and responsibilities, shall we say,
that one may ascribe to such a portion of All That Is.
It may be, however, that when one leaves the
boundaries of the incarnational experience, that the
increased ability to view that which has come before
and that which shall proceed from the incarnation
will present to the entity a picture which will
convince it that certain actions and thoughts within
the incarnation are in need of further balancing
experience or that which you call the karma. Thus, it
may not be said with definite surety that any one

action or even a series of actions or thoughts will
guarantee that there will be the building of the
momentum or karma that must be balanced within a
future incarnation, for it may well be that such
actions or thoughts are themselves the balance to
previous ones which now in a completed sense will
allow the entity to pursue further lessons in other
areas.

May we speak further, my brother?

J: No, thank you. Thank you very much

Carla: Maybe I didn’t understand you correctly. You
said it depends upon the circumstance a little bit
whether taking your own life would be balanced or
imbalanced. And it just seems to me that any time
you took your own life it would be a definite
embracing of the path of that which is not, and
therefore it would be an unbalanced act. You’re
saying, then, that there are balanced suicides, are you
not?

I am Q’uo, and we mean to leave the room for the
possibilities that in some cases this is so. However, in
the general run of the third-density incarnational
experience, your assumption concerning the nature
of the taking of one’s own life is correct in that it is a
partaking in that separation of self from the
incarnation which reflects the path of that which is
not, and this path in its final form pulls that which is
and there must eventually be the balanced point of
view which the building of the karmic momentum
will necessitate within a future, as you would call it,
incarnational experience.
