I would like to now discuss this session, presumably the first one after Don's suicide.
There are two distinct parts to the session. In the first Carla is channeling Hatonn:
So we know that Carla is reluctant to continue channeling after all that has happened. But there appears to be some pressure from... whom?
Also this: "From you we have learned so much." What, exactly, had Hatonn learned from the group? I would like to know! I think this gets back to the reason why Ra intervened on Hatonn elucidated in my thread on the Last Hatonn Contact Before Ra.
Stuck in Carla's mind, and clouding the channel, are somebody's words she heard speaking that day about somebody else's words about the life of Jesus and how his work was distorted. This gets back to my comments about the distortion of Jesus' message in More Positive but Less Harvestable. Who was that person, I wonder? Did they get the precious confirmation they were looking for when Hatonn spoke the same words that they had spoken to Carla?
Hatonn offers to explore it with their permission. Though I don't see anywhere in the transcript that permission was granted.
I am snarling along with the cats, here! And yawning.
I don't really agree at all with what Hatonn has to say here. Not past the first two sentences at most. I think Carla's mental fixation on Jesus is overtaking the session, and possibly corrupting the channel. Either that, or Hatonn, themselves is a sort of very early 4D energy, and somewhat susceptible to loving folly.
Jesus could not save himself, says... who? Why is Hatonn addressing this seemingly pressing question? Why does it need to be so urgently resolved in Carla's mind, before she can continue with the session?
Seriously, if whomever that person was that felt the need to make the session about Jesus ever happens to come across this post, I would like you to take responsibility for your actions. I think Carla deserves at least an apology. Maybe you and Jesus can help with her surgery bills as well.
Whoa, Nellie! Pardon our delay, but the instrument was laughing?! Now where did "enlightened self-interest" enter into the discussion, and why is Hatonn so urgent to point out that it is not what they were suggesting. To whom?
The next thing that comes from Hatonn is this sort of beatific rant that is filled with all the sort of empty platitudes I found in church as a child.
Look, even Hatonn says here at the end:
Ah. The enigmatic "false promise" of return. If Hatonn could come and go as they pleased, then what was the whole Ra intervention about, anyway?
The session then shifts into Jim channeling Latwii, although Law of Confusion continues to reign:
Indeed. Most of the session now revolves around Carla's nagging question about the harvestability of animals (see In regards to eating meat )
and also feels compelled to ask a question "from a friend" about some totally obscure ethical dilemma. Hmm.. now I wonder who THAT was?
The session just continues to devolve:
Carla doesn't seem to want to accept that there is no clear-cut answer. There is no absolute principle from which to discern appropriate ethical behavior, but for the Law of One.
And so the "Curse of Ra" continues. Now, besides having everything they have already gone through, the group is getting assaulted from all sides by people who seem to feel that their own personal problems and pet philosophical topics are more important than universal truths.
Kind of pathetic, if you ask me. Trying to trick Latwii into "weighing in" on this or that supposed principle from which we are all supposed to live our lives. Or ask an idiotic question as if it were a gypsy machine reading your Tarot cards, and telling you what to do. How insensitive toward the immense suffering that the group had just moved though! Thanks, "S", for asking that question about your friend, that was immensely useful to the group. Mr. S thinks he is doing his something good for his friend. I say he is doing his friend AND the group AND himself a DISSERVICE. If Mr. S' friend has a question, he can come ask Latwii himself, no?
And poor Carla, whose health was already in somewhat of a shambles and conflicted over how the Ra communication conflicted with her Christian upbringing. Now a "good Christian friend" is trying to use the opportunity to console her with empty platitudes attributed to Jesus. I just bet, in the Christian friend's mind, she was doing humanity a service by trying to use the crisis as an opportunity to steer the Law of One back toward her own distorted view of Jesus' teachings.
(That last part is pure speculation, but that is my intuitive hunch so I am going to throw it out there. Also I suppose the friend could have just as easily been a man. Or maybe I completely projected that onto the situation.)
What I see here is a clear example, yet again, of how a communication gets distorted due to others' preconceived notions and expectations about what it is "supposed" to say. This results in, what I would consider to be, an all-out mental assault on Carla's mind, and just exactly the sort of move that the group was hoping to avoid.
I'm sorry, but I don't see very much LOVE here surrounding this group in this session. Isn't that a prerequisite for a clear channel? :idea: I see a lot of very selfish people, with ulterior motives, wildly distorted views on cosmology, each desperately trying to control something that they are incapable of understanding.
It is actually causing me to feel physically angry right now the level of twisted abuse that was committed here by "brother upon sister" and "sister upon sister". All under the false guise of Love! I've seen this kind of thing go down in a channeling group. Never to anywhere near this degree. But the demons are always there, ready to pounce. Disguised as angels, of course.
Some soiterology. eh? Causing one to physically suffer so that another can be redeemed through their pain.
There are two distinct parts to the session. In the first Carla is channeling Hatonn:
Hatonn Wrote:I greet you in the love and the light of the infinite Creator. It is a great pleasure to speak through this instrument once again and to be with each of you. This instrument was reluctant to begin, however each other instrument was more reluctant than she, desiring in common to hear our words through this instrument. Therefore, although this instrument is somewhat fatigued, we find the instrument most receptive and we are grateful for the opportunity to share our thoughts with you for you are our beloved friends, and there is no greater pleasure than in your companionship. From you we have learned so much. We thank you and bless you and offer, as always, to be with each of you, for the Confederation wishes to be of service even as we find ourselves served in the doing of this humble service.
So we know that Carla is reluctant to continue channeling after all that has happened. But there appears to be some pressure from... whom?
Also this: "From you we have learned so much." What, exactly, had Hatonn learned from the group? I would like to know! I think this gets back to the reason why Ra intervened on Hatonn elucidated in my thread on the Last Hatonn Contact Before Ra.
Hatonn Wrote:We find in the instrument’s mind a phrase which passed her ears this day. It is from your holy works and concerns the teacher you know as Jesus. It was said of him in this writing, “He can save others; himself he cannot save.” This is a greatly misunderstood portion of the writing which surrounds a greatly distorted telling of this teacher’s life and work. We shall explore it with you with your permission.
Stuck in Carla's mind, and clouding the channel, are somebody's words she heard speaking that day about somebody else's words about the life of Jesus and how his work was distorted.

Hatonn Wrote:When the most rigorously unselfish person begins to heal, that person comes up against one of the great paradoxes of life of service to others, and that is this, my friends: beyond a certain point, giving to others robs the self. Therefore a life of perfect service to others removes the self. That is what occurred to the teacher known to you as Jesus. This teacher literally could not save himself, for perfect compassion had expressed itself in his incarnation. And in perfect compassion lies the decision to lay down the life for others. Each of you is at this time living a life of imperfect compassion by the standards set by the one known as Jesus. No matter how beatific and angelic your thoughts, how pure your motives, there is an instinctual sense of the preservation of the self. We wish you to accept this as a balanced and unquestionably necessary frame of mind as you pursue your path of service. If you give all, if you lay down your life continuously, you become literally too fine to withstand this illusion, and therefore you offer yourself as sacrifice for many …
(Sound of cats snarling.)

Hatonn Wrote:Pardon our delay, but the instrument was laughing. We wish to assure you that in no way do we suggest the kind of enlightened self-interest, as this instrument would call it, that causes one to become separate and apart from others, judgmental, or in any way a stumbling block. Indeed, one can come very close to complete service to others and still remain within this illusion. But if all others are the Creator, are not you the Creator also, and is not the heart of your work your own worth? Therefore, we ask each of you not to lose that center of joy, happiness, peace, the gifts of the spirit of light which are given to you in meditation and are your birthright.
Let us dwell now upon this joy, for we would wish that you would feel more fully that which you wish to give.
Whoa, Nellie! Pardon our delay, but the instrument was laughing?! Now where did "enlightened self-interest" enter into the discussion, and why is Hatonn so urgent to point out that it is not what they were suggesting. To whom?
The next thing that comes from Hatonn is this sort of beatific rant that is filled with all the sort of empty platitudes I found in church as a child.
Look, even Hatonn says here at the end:
Quote:We leave you with the promise of our return whenever you would wish it.
Ah. The enigmatic "false promise" of return. If Hatonn could come and go as they pleased, then what was the whole Ra intervention about, anyway?
The session then shifts into Jim channeling Latwii, although Law of Confusion continues to reign:
Latwii Wrote:I am Latwii, and am once more with this instrument. What a motley crew we have this evening. Forgetting lists, turning the tape recorder around, and forgetting the number of the card. We shall attempt response to your query amidst such difficulties …
Indeed. Most of the session now revolves around Carla's nagging question about the harvestability of animals (see In regards to eating meat )
Carla Wrote:I forgot my list. Could you address the subject of harvestable second-density animals, and the possibility of their living to third density, and how many of them do, and how many of them come back to be with their owners?
and also feels compelled to ask a question "from a friend" about some totally obscure ethical dilemma. Hmm.. now I wonder who THAT was?
The session just continues to devolve:
Quote:Carla: No, darn it. I understand that you can’t have a clear-cut answer, that each situation is unique. I gather that’s why there is no clear-cut answer. Is that correct?
I am Latwii. My sister, not only is that correct, but each situation is also always changing. May we answer you further?
Carla: No, thank you.
I am Latwii, and we thank you, my sister, for being allowed to confuse you further and for getting away with it and appearing wise in the doing. May we attempt another query?
Carla doesn't seem to want to accept that there is no clear-cut answer. There is no absolute principle from which to discern appropriate ethical behavior, but for the Law of One.
And so the "Curse of Ra" continues. Now, besides having everything they have already gone through, the group is getting assaulted from all sides by people who seem to feel that their own personal problems and pet philosophical topics are more important than universal truths.
