https://www.llresearch.org/channeling/1987/0621 Q`uo Wrote:...it comes to me that perhaps Jesus the Christ was one example when he turned towards Jerusalem of a man who basically committed suicide—he knew he was in trouble when he went there, I mean, he was telling people he was going to die and be raised in three days before he ever went there. And he knew all that was going to happen and it still happened to him, but he thought that he could save other people by it. Is that the kind of suicide that would perhaps qualify for being in balance?
I am Q’uo, and this is correct, my sister, for the taking of one’s life or the laying down of one’s life for the benefit of others is an action which partakes of that path which is and that path reflects the desire to give of the self in a manner which is of service to others, even if the giving requires that all which one has be given. Thus, one finds within your culture many instances in which the life is given for others and the giving may take a great portion of the incarnation, such as the sacrifices which many of the parents, as you call them, make for the offspring over a great portion of the incarnational experience. Or the giving may be of a moment’s inspiration, such as when one of the young soldiers, as you call them, throws itself in harm’s way in order that a comrade may survive.
Thank you Patrick
I was deeply interested in what those of Q'uo had said about it, this was extremely helpful.
My grandad made many sacrifices and devoted his life to alleviating as many of my mother's problems as he could, as she suffered with mental illness as well as my grandmother.
He was truly remarkable as a service to others being, wanting no clout or thanks for what he accomplished.
Your post has hinted that he served just fine!
