I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. The 103 quote today comes from the Introduction and the section on fitness:

Fitness

Animals, both domestic and wild, have a natural fitness or physical strength that they don’t have to exercise in order to maintain. It is just a gift of nature that they will carry with them throughout their lives. We humans, on the other hand, have to exercise our muscles if we want to maintain our strength past the early years of youth and young adulthood. It is always amazing to me to look at small children and see how much energy they have when they play and just go through the day doing what they do. At some point this endless energy seems to leak away until, as adults, we become very aware that we will need to practice some form of exercising in order to keep our strength. Our situation seems to become a use-it-or-loose-it reality. In the following quote Q’uo gives a kind of overview to exercise as a means to quiet the nervous energy of the mind:

And there are various ways of relieving the type of nervous energy which one may experience as a result of quieting the mind and the reaching through to a source of results that is found imbedded in the greater self, that in some cases may manifest its vitality as a kind of nervous energy. In taking part in the physical exercise which brings one to the physical exhaustion is as one means as simple as walking rapidly or jogging will remove this energy in a short period of time. Q’uo, January 25, 1989

During the Ra contact Carla engaged in a very strenuous program of exercise in order to keep her body as fit as possible to serve as the instrument for the Ra contact. Five or six days per week she would take a speed walk for an hour during which time she covered from four to five miles. She also engaged in aerobic exercises a couple of times per week where she would perform certain dance-like movements repeatedly. We had a treadmill that she would use in order to walk rapidly in place when the weather was bad outside. Ra suggested that exercising her body in this fashion would make her weary in the short run but stronger in the long run, and this strength would add to her vital energies which powered the Ra contact. In the following quote Ra went into detail about how much time Carla should spend in the various forms of exercise that she did:

104.2 Questioner: The instrument would like to know what’s the optimum amount of aerobics, walking, and whirlpool exercises for the best condition at this time?

Ra: I am Ra. We shall answer in two ways. Firstly, to speak to the general case which pertains to this instrument in varying degree, each form of exercise is well accomplished approximately three to four times per your week. The amount of exercise, all quantified as one sum, is approximately one hour per diurnal period.

We now answer in a second way, distorted in this response to the duple conditions of yellow-ray, physical difficulty and mind complex distortion. The swirling waters then must needs be viewed as being appropriate four to five of your times per week. The walking and the exercising as much as is desired by the entity. The total of all these should in no case exceed ninety minutes per diurnal period.

The yellow-ray, physical body has been experiencing that which is called lupoid changes in much tissue of muscle and some of the organs as well. The exercise regains the wasting physical muscular strength. In some ways the walking is the more appropriate exercise due to the proximity of the entity to second-density creatures, particularly your trees. However, the habitation you enjoy does not offer such opportunity and instead offers the proximity to creations of mind/body/spirit complexes. This does not feed the mental/emotional needs of this entity although it produces the same physical result. The exercise fulfills more of the mental/emotional need due to the entity’s fondness for rhythmic expressions of the body such as those found in athletic endeavors derivative of the artifact system which is known among your peoples as the dance.

We suggest the support group encourage any exercise except that which exceeds the time limit which is already far beyond the physical limitations of this body complex. It is the way of distortion that in order to balance a distortion one must accentuate it. Thusly, the over-wearing of the body may, if correctly motivated, produce a lack of deficit at which juncture the lesser exercise limitations should be put into practice.

This morning I had lunch at First Watch and then drove across the street to buy a sandwich for dinner from Panera Bread. Then I stopped by the donation bin behind the PNC Bank and donated a couple of long-sleeved shirts and sweaters which I have not been wearing for quite some time. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store to pick up some paper towels and ice cream.

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

Hope

I am the son of God, a principle created by an inspired and inspiring life and teaching. We greet you in the full consciousness of that love which is in Jesus the Christ.

This instrument is quite doubting this morning, for she feels that it is hopeless to attempt true communion with her experiences at this time being difficult emotionally. Yet to those especially troubled we give a special invitation. The spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ, that force which by any other name is the same, desires to comfort all His people as it is written in your holy work, the Bible. There need be no stragglers of hopelessness; no long line of those who wait and watch for a glimmer of hope.

To those who suffer this day, we ask that each spend time in a nurturing atmosphere. When this is impossible physically may we encourage you with godly hope to reserve that portion of yourself which is the balance point and from that point to trust that the harmonic plan of life is indeed right where it should be.

If this is not seen to be so, then the perspective has not yet become full enough for a greater understanding. Be patient under this limitation and persevere in hoping. For those things for which we hope are those things which shall manifest in your life.

We urge you to the peace and harmony of the created God in men, both now and forever. Peace. Peace. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

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