I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the L/Leema channeling for this session comes from October 13, 1985:

(Carla channeling)

I am L/Leema. I greet you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We give thanks that we may join with you at this time and share our vibrational complexes with yours as we flow together through time and space for this present moment.

You question us concerning houses. We shall answer you in two parts, the first a brief one. The placement of spiritual dwellings matters little except in specialized instances. Those specialized instances are those in which the dwelling place is attempting to attune itself to the incoming energy patterns that meet and greet the shell of your planetary sphere. As research in this area has been competently done, we shall mention only that in your particular geographical area, the ley line which is closest to your location lies approximately 35 to 60 miles south of you and moves roughly along your waterway towards the location you call Cincinnati. Please note the very specialized nature wherein this information would be applicable and informational.

The second part of your query is not so easily answered, yet we shall attempt to be brief insofar as accuracy and brevity concur. There is one architect. This architect has been called the Creator, and from the Creator flows many ideas, many shapes, many possibilities, many inspirations concerning houses. When it is given to a group of individuals who wish to act in Love, to draw from that one architect a certain type of dwelling, the dwelling may be built. Some shapes are more easily attuned vibrationally for magical work than others. However, all shapes in general have equal potential, for it is not the builder of the house but the architect to whom praise may be given, and that architect—that is, the one original Thought—works not through board, and clay, and stone but in the heart and spirit of those who build. We encourage entities of Loving heart and will to put forth effort in that which may seem to be advantageous.

L/Leema said that the question for this session was about houses. They began by saying we shall answer you in two parts, so the placement of spiritual dwellings matters little except in specialized instances which are those in which the dwelling place is attempting to attune itself to the incoming energy patterns that meet and greet the shell of your planetary sphere, and as research in this area has been completed, we shall mention that in your particular geographical area, the ley line which is closest to your location lies approximately 35 to 60 miles south of you and moves roughly along your waterway towards Cincinnati, but please note the specialized nature wherein this information would be applicable and informational. Now L/Leema said the second part of your query is not so easily answered, yet we shall attempt to be brief insofar as accuracy and brevity concur, for there is one architect which has been called the Creator, and from the Creator flows many ideas, many shapes, and many inspirations concerning houses, and when it is given to a group of individuals who wish to act in Love, to draw from that one architect a certain type of dwelling, the dwelling may be built, yet some shapes are more easily tuned vibrationally for magical work than others, but all shapes have equal potential, for it is not the builder of the house but the architect to whom praise may be given, and that architect—that is, the one original Thought—works in the heart and spirit of those who build, so we encourage entities of a Loving heart and will to put forth effort in that which may seem to be advantageous. In Ra, 50.14, Ra spoke of the nature of magic work:

The most normal for the adept is the following: the indigo stimulation, activating that great gateway into healing, magical work, prayerful attention, and the radiance of being; and the stimulation of the violet ray which is the spiritual giving and taking from and to Creator, from Creator to Creator.

However, we must send out a stern warning. It is the Love for the architect that invests the house with excellence of vibration. With this Love, any shaped and placed dwelling shall be magical; without this same Love, the most carefully designed and placed house shall be one which is dead in a spiritual sense. Love for the architect, my friends, brings with it a sense of unity, of Love, one for another, and of praise. When there are quarrelsome and divisive entities building an house, that house shall be a house of shame. When the humblest dwelling is put up with loving hands and adoring hearts, so that dwelling shall be full of Love. We can give no encouragement or discouragement to any plan for becoming those who dwell within a house, for you already dwell within a house, my friends, and that house is your physical vehicle. Have you caused it to dwell in holy places by the purity of your thoughts and the Love within your heart? Or have you made your body dead by pursuing with it endless divisiveness? Your civilization encourages the latter path, and thus you see more and more the diseases that come from the hard heart and a divisive will. So, it shall be upon the metaphysical plane for any structure that is built by people. We can say no more than this—build in Love, in unity, and praise to the architect who is no man, but the very Creator.

L/Leema said we must send out a stern warning, for it is the Love for the architect that invests the house with excellence of vibration, and with this Love any shaped and placed dwelling shall be magical, but without this Love, the most carefully designed and placed house shall be one which is dead in a spiritual sense, but Love for the architect brings with it a sense of unity, of Love, one for another, and of praise, but when there are divisive entities building a house, that house shall be a house of shame, yet when the humblest dwelling is put up with loving hands and adoring hearts, so that dwelling shall be full of Love, but we can give no encouragement or discouragement to any plan for becoming those who dwell within a house, for you already dwell within a house, and that house is your physical vehicle, for: “Have you caused it to dwell in holy places by the purity of your thoughts and the Love within your heart? Or have you made your body dead by pursuing with it endless divisiveness?” Then L/Leema said our civilization encourages the latter path, and you see more diseases that come from the hard heart and a divisive will, so it shall be upon the metaphysical plane for any structure that is built by people, for we can say no more than this: build in Love, in unity, and praise to the architect who is no man, but the very Creator. On September 14, 1986, Q’uo spoke of the value of loving hands:

Each entity within what you have called the third-density illusion has entered this illusion or experience with a purpose that has been agreed upon, and in fact constructed before the incarnation has begun, and this construction has had many loving hands and hearts to add to its strength, to its purpose and to its potential means of implementation, for before each incarnation begins, an entity will assess those lessons that have been well learned in previous incarnations and will look at those which remain for the, shall we say, graduation from this particular level of experience.

We thank you for allowing us to share our imperfect thoughts with you and ask you always to remember that we are finite entities capable of erroneous statement. Therefore, take unto yourselves that which is good to you. That which is bad to you, leave. We are those of L/Leema. It is our enormous pleasure to serve you this evening. We leave you as we greeted you in the hands of the great architect, the great principle of Love and builded Light and that which is inaccessible, that of which we are merely the echo. We leave you in the mystery of the one infinite Creator. Adonai. We are L/Leema.

[Pause]

We are those of L/Leema, and greet you once again in Love and Light. This instrument has made an error. This instrument lost the next concept which was that we were leaving this instrument but would continue the contact. We now leave this instrument. We are those of L/Leema.

(Jim channeling)

I am L/Leema and greet you again in the Love and the Light of the One. We are pleased that we have been able to make contact so easily with this instrument who is in the process of learning our vibration and manner of contact. We would at this time be pleased to attempt any other queries which those present may find value in the asking. May we attempt such a query?

N: Yes. Thank you very much for the philosophical answer. Of course, I did realize that any house would be satisfactory, but we were wondering primarily about the location in the knobs of southern Indiana since it would be accessible to the Louisville area and was primarily wondering about the energy sources for that particular area, which would not be forty to sixty miles south, but rather, almost due west or perhaps a little west-northwest.

I am L/Leema. We feel the query which you have asked about may best be answered by again suggesting that it is only for the finest of the magical, as you would call it, workings that an exact location that would harmonize with your planet’s lines of force would be necessary. These workings are usually accomplished by those who make but small contact with the people and cultures of your planet. The desire to be of service to a larger group of people, as you may put it, and to interact with these people is that force which is most important in the establishing and constructing of any structure to so further that service, be that structure physical, mental, or spiritual.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: No, thank you very much. It was primarily to be of service to more mind/body/spirit complexes so that the harvest might be increased that we thought that there might be one area that might be a little better than others. But if it’s primarily the individual, then, thank you very much.

I am L/Leema, and we thank you, my brother. Is there another query?

L: May I ask one of a more personal nature? I’m having a little trouble staying in contact with the group tonight. Am I experiencing something unusual?

I am L/Leema. As we observe your vibrations, my brother, we can only note that there has been some slight difficulty in your readjusting to this atmosphere, having been absent for a portion of your time. The other factor which has sway at this moment and which accentuates the rustiness, shall we say, is that which we feel would best be pondered by your own efforts for a period of time, perhaps at a later time, in order that you at this time may set aside the concern and become as much as possible a functioning portion of this particular group.

May we answer further, my brother?

L: No, thank you very much.

I am L/Leema, and we thank you, my brother. Is there another query?

Carla: Well, I’d like to follow up on L’s, because I can feel a difference in the vibration this evening, and I always do when L/Leema comes through. It is a quieter and deeper state of meditation, and I was wondering whether, in sensitive people, this degree of meditative state might not encourage the leaving of the body by the spirit? If that’s so, what can be done to keep us in the body besides holding hands?

I am L/Leema. Your query presupposes a situation which we find is correct in general, that is, that this group this evening has the opportunity to delve into those deeper levels of meditations because of the vibration which we use to steady our contact with this group. The more sensitive, as you call it, entities within the group will notice this factor first and most profoundly, and it is also possible for such a sensitive entity having any predisposed concern of a mental origin to be somewhat distracted by the combination of the concern and the deeper potential for deeper meditation. May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: Yes. Given that it is desirable to remain within the body, is there a tool which one may use to remain in the meditative state and enjoy the deeper state and yet be assured of remaining in the body and not rolling out?

I am L/Leema. There are many such tools, my sister, for those who are practiced at the “rolling out” of the body, as you have put it. However, for those present who have not such practice, we suggest the simple holding of the hands, for such auric infringement will of necessity cause the enlivener of the entity, the mind/body/spirit complex, to remain with its physical vehicle.

I am L/Leema: May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No. Thank you.

I am L/Leema, and we thank you, my sister, and greet the next query.

A: Can a cat serve the same purpose as a hand?

I am L/Leema, and we find this is in large part correct, for the auric infringement of the second-density creature works also upon the third-density physical vehicle by the very nature of the enlivened touch, shall we say.

May we answer further, my sister?

A: No, thank you.

I am L/Leema, and we thank you. Is there another query?

N: Yes. I wonder if you would perhaps define and explain the various stages between light meditation, deep meditation, through deep meditation, trance, as far as the spirit or shall we say the individual’s remaining with the vehicle or the displacement of that spirit through astral projection or whatever, as well as the instrument’s ability to remember through the various stages through trance?

I am L/Leema and am aware of your query, my brother, which covers much ground. We shall attempt to respond by asking that you picture the mind as a tree. In the conscious mind one is existing as upon the outer limbs and branches of the tree of mind. The winds of conversation, the thought and action, blow and gust and the limbs move about in response. As one quiets the mind by removing the attention from the outer world of winds, one moves down the branches to the trunk of the tree of mind. The trunk may represent the deeper levels of meditation, which may be likened unto the waves of the brain which have been described as the alpha waves, which correspond also to the lighter levels of dozing or sleep but with the attention focused and alert. The mind may further be quieted and focused upon fewer and fewer points until the point of unity of focus is achieved.

This moves further down the trunk of the tree and as the tree then moves into the ground with its system of roots, so may the conscious mind be passed from, and the attention of the mind/body/spirit complex be able to perceive below the conscious mind into the roots of mind in a fashion which uncovers awareness of experience not consciously known to the entity. This movement is that which roughly corresponds to the movement from the conscious meditation to the more trance-like state of awareness in which portions of the subconscious mind become available to the focused attention of the mind/body/spirit complex. As various of the roots of the tree of mind are explored by the focused attention, there is a deepening and enrichment of the trance state. The ability of an entity to remember consciously that which occurs while in the deeper levels of the trance state is a function of that entity’s ability to achieve this trance state consciously as a function of the exercise of will and the practice of this ability. Many entities in the dream state enter the roots of the tree of mind and yet remember little of the experiences gathered there upon awakening, for there has been little conscious effort made to train the self to retain that which is experienced. The practice, whether in trance or in dreams, of remembering those experiences which occurred within the roots of the tree of mind is gained by the repetition of such experience.

N asked: “I wonder if you would perhaps define and explain the various stages between light meditation, deep meditation, through deep meditation, trance, as far as the spirit or shall we say the individual’s remaining with the vehicle or the displacement of that spirit through astral projection or whatever, as well as the instrument’s ability to remember through the various stages through trance?” L/Leema began by saying we shall attempt to respond by asking that you picture the mind as a tree, for in the conscious mind one is existing as upon the outer limbs of the tree of mind, so the winds of the thought and action blow, and the limbs move about in response, for as one quiets the mind by removing the attention from the outer world of winds, one moves down the branches to the trunk of the tree of mind which may represent the deeper levels of meditation, that may be likened unto the waves of the brain which have been described as the alpha waves, and they correspond to the lighter levels of sleep but with the attention focused, but the mind may be focused upon fewer points until the point of unity of focus is achieved. L/Leema continued by saying this moves further down the trunk of the tree, and as the tree moves into the ground with its system of roots, so may the conscious mind be passed from, and the attention of the mind/body/spirit complex be able to perceive below the conscious mind into the roots of mind in a fashion which uncovers awareness of experience not consciously known to the entity, for this movement is that which corresponds to the movement from the conscious meditation to the more trance-like state of awareness in which portions of the subconscious mind become available to the focused attention of the mind/body/spirit complex, so as various of the roots of the tree of mind are explored by the focused attention, there is a deepening and enrichment of the trance state, so the ability of an entity to remember that which occurs while in the deeper levels of the trance state is a function of that entity’s ability to achieve this trance state consciously as a function of the exercise of will and the practice of this ability, but many entities in the dream state enter the roots of the tree of mind and yet remember little of the experiences gathered there upon awakening, for there has been little conscious effort made to train the self to retain that which is experienced, yet the practice, whether in trance or in dreams, of remembering those experiences which occurred within the roots of the tree of mind is gained by the repetition of such experience. On November 9, 2019, Q’uo described the roots of the tree of mind:

Thus, the consciousness comes from the One Infinite Creator’s unity. As each entity perceives its own consciousness, then, it discovers that it is related to all other entities through this consciousness through its various levels of consciousness within its own being that move through the roots of the tree of mind into the subconscious, into the planetary consciousness, into racial consciousness, into cosmic consciousness, into the consciousness of all that is, all that is created.

I am L/Leema: May we answer further, my brother?

N: Yes. Then you’re equating trance with sleep. During trance and with sleep, is the spirit complex displaced from the vehicle, or is it only connected by the cord, or exactly what? I’m asking for several reasons. One is that when Mark Provost channeled Yadda, he seemed to be in a deep trance, or at least they keep referring to the fact that he’s in a deep trance. But yet when someone in the room holds their hand up, Yadda seemed to be able to recognize them. And of course, I always thought deep trance mediums or instruments or whatever were totally oblivious to outside influences of a physical nature.

I am L/Leema, and your query is based upon some slight misunderstanding of the nature of the deeper levels of trance. There is the possibility that some entities who serve as the trance medium may wish to remain with the physical vehicle as it is given over in its use on some occasions to those who would speak through it, those entities not having physical vehicles of their own of that nature. The medium who chooses to remain with the vehicle is one who is usually learning another facet of the service that it performs as a trance medium and is not present because of any need to perform a function at that moment other than the learning of a certain lesson. This level of trance of which we now speak is a level that is of the deeper nature and is of the nature utilized by the one who was known as Mark. This entity, however, did not choose to remain with its vehicle and gave over its use completely to others or individualized portions of others. This then allowed those known as Yadda to enter the vehicle and use it in a fashion which resembled its use by the one known as Mark. This enabled those of Yadda to utilize the optical apparatus as well as other portions of the physical vehicle, and thus enabled vision, sight, and recognition to occur. It is much as you would use another entity’s coat.

Most who serve as trance mediums do not work in these deeper levels of trance, for much can be accomplished in levels which do not require the complete giving over of the physical vehicle and its exit in so doing. These types of trance may allow, therefore, the one serving as…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am L/Leema, and am once again with this instrument, and we shall continue. These entities, therefore, remain with the physical vehicle and serve as what may be called an interpreter in order that the patterns of energy in the form of various visions may be translated and transmitted into the third-density illusion. This is the more normal level of trance, yet it still resides in the roots of the tree of mind and beneath the veil, shall we say, which separates the conscious and subconscious minds and the conscious meditation from the trance level of awareness.

N asked: “Then you’re equating trance with sleep. During trance and with sleep, is the spirit complex displaced from the vehicle, or is it only connected by the cord, or exactly what? I’m asking for several reasons. One is that when Mark Provost channeled Yadda, he seemed to be in a deep trance, or at least they keep referring to the fact that he’s in a deep trance.

Then L/Leema said most who serve as trance mediums do not work in deeper levels of trance, for much can be accomplished in levels which do not require the complete giving over of the physical vehicle and its exit in so doing, so these entities remain with the physical vehicle and serve as an interpreter in order that the patterns of energy in the form of various visions may be translated and transmitted into the third-density illusion, for this is the normal level of trance, yet it still resides in the roots of the tree of mind and beneath the veil which separates the conscious and subconscious minds and the conscious meditation from the trance level of awareness. On August 3, 1980, Latwii described the difference between a conscious channel and a trance medium:

Therefore, we use that part of your connection with the oversoul, which is deep within you, and allow the concepts to rise to your mind consciously, seemingly your own thoughts. We do this in order that you may at any time refuse to speak, for we do not wish to cause you to speak if you do not wish to. There are those who use what are called trance mediums and they speak whether or not they may wish to speak. However, we prefer to provide you with a constant choice between our thoughts and silence. Even when we speak through this instrument, at any moment she could simply stop speaking. We would retire, gracefully we hope, and come again when there was a request for our presence.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: Yes, thank you very much. Then there is a differential in memory, as well as understanding, in the deeper trance as compared to the meditative or some level in between?

I am L/Leema and am unsure as to whether we have a firm grasp upon your query, but shall attempt response. Please requestion if we have not properly grasped your query. The deeper levels of meditation and the deeper levels of trance provide a greater challenge for any entity to remember to bring back and to put together that which was experienced at those levels. Again, the practice and repetition is that which allows a greater remembering.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: Yes, thank you, if the instrument’s not too tired, I have another query.

I am L/L Leema. Please continue.

N: In those trance mediums who channel their spirit guides and so forth, there are some that can produce ectoplasm, or it is said that they can produce ectoplasm. How does this occur? And what level is usually necessary for channeling spirit guides?

I am L/Leema, and to take the latter query first, the entities known as spirit guides may be contacted in a variety of manners and levels of awareness, from the conscious waking state, to the light meditation, to trance and sleep. Those who are able to produce the substance known as ectoplasm are those who have, over a long portion of your time and in many cases in previous incarnations, have been able to produce this substance by the application of the desire to be of service and the practice of the trance state. The substance itself is a materialization of that which would seem in your reality to be immaterial. It is the stepping down of the vibratory frequency of a certain form of light which is awakened in the heart chakra of the entity serving as trance medium. The connection then having been made between this third-density illusion and the finer levels or inner planes of this illusion and the lower levels of the fourth-density illusion then allow a contact to be made in what frequently is experienced as a shape or form which assumes a recognizable shape, most usually that of an entity resembling your third-density physical vehicle.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: Then these materializations are actual ectoplasm and are not thought-form considerations, I would assume? And I also understand from what you’ve said that you have to have been doing this during prior incarnations in order to rechannel the material? It’s not easily learned, in other words? Or developed?

I am L/Leema and may affirm that much practice is necessary in order for this service to be performed. It is not impossible that it can be learned within one incarnational period of time, yet it is more likely to have been experienced in a series of incarnations. The form of the ectoplasmic material is a function of the thought of the one contacted, thus it is a thought form in that respect. The one so materializing is able to take the ectoplasm and form it according to its desire which is in turn a function of the desire and experience of those present in the third-density illusion who call for this service.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: And as you said, this does emanate from the heart chakra?

I am L/Leema, and this was, indeed, our statement, though this instrument is somewhat doubtful.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: Only one more query. I know the instrument must be getting tired. I have found it very difficult to completely clear the mind in meditation, in other words to go into the silence. Is there any sort of way that we can—any sort of gimmicks or so forth, that we can either hook up with universal mind or in some way quiet our own mind?

I am L/Leema, and many are the ways that have been devised by those such as yourself seeking to quiet the ever-rambunctious mind in its constant meanderings. The most frequently used technique is to use a mediator, shall we say, that is, a phrase or word or note or a single thought that will put the attention of the mind, through repetition, upon one thought or focus with the eventual goal of the removing even of that one focus in order that a more complete unity of self with all might be experienced.

This general type of technique attempts to strike a bargain or compromise, shall we say, for a time with the conscious mind, as the conscious mind is most normally functioning and therefore most usually comfortable with the activities of action and reaction and will in some cases be more easily quieted if it is given one simple activity to repeat time and again, like a child in the corner, shall we say, in order that after a variable length of time it may even be persuaded to become completely quiet and enjoy its new environment of silence and those experiences which emanate from the infinite inner silence.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: Well, just one clarification. The redundancy of one simple object will then focus on total quietness? Is that the basic conception?

I am L/Leema, and this is the hoped for result. As you are aware, there are varying degrees of success with various entities and upon various occasions for any entity.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: Thank you very much for all your answers.

I am L/Leema, and we thank you, my brother. Is there another query?

[Pause]

I am L/Leema, and we thank each for those queries offered this evening. Our words are but halting and humble attempts to reflect the greater portion of what we have found to be true in our own seeking. We realize that we may have spoken much which was not of value to one, but we offer any that is of value to any so seeking, and we thank each for the invitation to join your group in whatever capacity. We shall leave this group at this time, rejoicing, as always, in that same Love and Light which shines upon all. We are L/Leema. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “It is the spiritual Self that is that person, and the Christ-person is not subject to the laws of the flesh, not even harmonious flesh but is subject only to the Christ. Soon one reaches the end of such mental cogitation or contemplation and settles into a quiet, peaceful state of receptivity into which no thought intrudes. In that state of consciousness, the healing Christ takes over, flooding consciousness with tranquility and peace. It is a spiritual “peace, be still,“ and from this emanates the healing Grace which envelops one or one’s patient, and then harmony becomes apparent and tangible in experience.

In our meditation, we may sit down with a sick person in our mind, or with a poor or sinful one, but we should not get up until, through realization, we have come to that place where there ether is no person, sick or well, rich or poor, sinful or pure; there is only God—there is only God appearing as the Father and God appearing as the Son. Then is our prayer complete and with it comes the conviction, “It is so.”

As long as we are knowing the truth—thinking, declaring, or voicing truth—we are in the mental realm. True, we may be thinking of spiritual things, but we are thinking of spiritual things mentally, and no healing is likely to take place. If healing does occur in some such cases, it is through mental argument, and it is not spiritual but mental healing, the effect of suggestion, the fruitage of the type of practice which says, “You are well” or You are perfect” or God’s will is done in you”; and the mind accepts the suggestion and responds to it. That is not spiritual healing because the patient has merely responded to the suggestion of another mind.

In The Infinite Way, we do not make suggestions; we never use the word you in a treatment; we never use the name of the patient, nor do we let the person enter our thoughts after they have asked for help. Even though we are still in the mental realm when we contemplate, it is not about the patient: it is about God and the things of God that we know, or the laws of God that we understand or have read about and are now trying to realize.

We do not expect healing from any of this because we cannot bring forth the Son of God from the second chapter of Genesis, out of which comes only Adam, the man of flesh. The only way that this man of flesh can be restored to Eden and to his normal spiritual harmony is not thinking thoughts about him, but by entering into a state of Silence which recognizes neither good nor evil.

When we have no desires, we have no desire for good any more than we have a desire for evil, and then we are pure enough to be in the Garden of Eden which is desireless. It is not a state of desiring good but a contentedness with being.”

This morning I went outside and used Whip Lash to weed the Moss Garden. Then I used Huff and Puff to blow the weed clippings across Little Locust Creek.

This afternoon I used Venus, which I just got back from being repaired at Anderson’s Sale and Service, to cut all of the grass in my yard, and then I used Whip Lash to cut the grass where Venus could not go in the side yard, the area between the pet cemetery and the fishpond, and the front yard.

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

April 30

With The Eyes Of Love

I am the spirit of Him who cleaved the way of truth, Jesus the Christ. I greet you in the full consciousness of Love, the spiritual principle which Jesus the Christ lived.

This entity saw all things with eyes of Love. And we await each heart that calls to us that we may be, for each, the eyes of Love. For as you look upon your day, if it is seen with the eyes of Love, it is a perfect day in every way. The tasks put before you to do are those which will be helpful to others or will teach patience and understanding. Those people whom you will meet will feed you with their unique loveliness or will challenge you to find the Christ within the distortions of your mundane world.

And so, all things are either for joyous and enhanced living or for serious and persistent study to know the mind of Christ, to see with the eyes of Christ.

Call upon the Spirit of Love. It was for this reason that this principle was invoked in a personal sense for each and every consciousness within the creation. We have great Love for each and await each call with a happy heart.

We leave you in the peace which cleaves through falsity, that active peace, which is Love, 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 Hatonn and Latwii channelings come from October 6, 1985:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of our infinite Creator. It is with a great deal of pleasure that we welcome to the circle the ones known as B and G which have never been far from us, as all is One. Yet we are so pleased that we are able to blend our vibrations with those life-streams at this time. We will be overshadowed by those of Laitos who does not desire to speak but who wishes to greet each and to aid in the deepening of the meditative state. We encourage each to picture the room in the domicile in which you are sitting as a circle of Light of which you are all part and to feel the energy spinning in a clockwise fashion, spiraling ever upward, ever gaining in strength as each of you melts into oneness in the circle of Light and the glory of Light. We are using word by word communication with this instrument, therefore, there may be pauses at times. We apologize for any inconvenience but are attempting to train this instrument for more precise communication.

Picture if you will… We must pause. We are sorry for the delay, however the instrument was distracted by the “putty tat.”

Picture if you will a mountain stream gushing forth from a living spring, ever fresh, ever beautiful, moving and singing along its bed and refreshing all that lives therein. Such is the living wellspring of your spirits, my friends. Where can one go to find such a wellspring, such a fountainhead? Can one go into the city and find it there amidst the crowds and the cries of those who barter and sell, and the angers and disappointments of those who have come in second in a trade, and the vainglory and folly of those who believe they have won in the trade? It would take a special person to find sanctuary and nourishment in a city. Shall you then go to the country, and live through the ancient cycles of time and space, watching the trees and the foliage, the flowers and shrubs change their colors in the fall and become bleak and austere statues of dignity in your winter, only to bloom again with blossom in springtime and open their faces to the sun in the spate of full summer? My friends, it may seem to be a far more desirable haunt, and yet the wellspring of spiritual life is not easily found from without, even under such beautiful circumstances.

Can you go then into the ocean, away from all land into the simplicity of waves and sky and stars? My friends, the difficulty with picturing a better and better and better environment is that into such an environment you bring yourself. The self that is you is always with you and the wellspring and fountainhead of your spirit is within you. Therefore, into each environment you project those opinions and biases, those pains and pleasures of your own experience that make you what you are. That which is outer cannot do the job of bringing to birth that within you which is to come in your search for the truth. The small entity known as a cat which plays about your feet at this time is a living example of the perfect environment into which is projected a self incapable of using large portions of [inaudible]. To this cat, the room is warm, the food bowl and the water bowl are full, and all would seem to be perfect, and the cat plays and is happy. But where shall it go that its spirit may progress? If you are seeking to survive, my friends, find the correct environment. If you are seeking to grow, know that the only environment that matters is within you. You are the wellspring of your evolution in spirit; you are the fountainhead of your birth into that new portion of yourself which you wish to be lifted up in Love to the Light that shines from the one great original Thought.

In this session Hatonn speaks about where we can find the environment of our spiritual journey. They began by saying picture a mountain stream gushing forth from a living spring, ever fresh, ever beautiful, moving and singing along its bed and refreshing all that lives therein, and such is the living wellspring of your spirits, so: “Where can one go to find such a wellspring, such a fountainhead? Can one go into the city and find it there amidst the crowds and the cries of those who barter and sell, and the angers and disappointments of those who have come in second in a trade, and the vainglory and folly of those who believe they have won in the trade?” Then Hatonn said it would take a special person to find sanctuary and nourishment in a city, and: “Shall you then go to the country, and live through the ancient cycles of time and space, watching the trees and the foliage, the flowers and shrubs change their colors in the fall and become bleak and austere statues of dignity in your winter, only to bloom again with blossom in springtime and open their faces to the sun in the spate of full summer?” Then Hatonn said it may seem to be a more desirable place, yet the wellspring of spiritual life is not easily found from without, even under such beautiful circumstances. Hatonn continued by saying the difficulty with picturing a better environment is that into such an environment you bring yourself that is always within you, for into each environment you project those opinions, those pains, and pleasures of your experience that make you what you are, but that which is outer cannot do the job of bringing to birth that within you which is to come in your search for the truth, and the cat which plays about your feet at this time is an example of the environment into which is projected a self incapable of using large portions of [inaudible], so to this cat the room is warm, the food bowl and the water bowl are full, and all would seem to be perfect, and the cat plays and is happy, but if you are seeking to survive find the correct environment, and if you are seeking to grow, know that the only environment that matters is within you, for you are the wellspring of your evolution in spirit, and you are the fountainhead of your birth into that new portion of yourself which you wish to be lifted up in Love to the Light that shines from the one great original Thought. On November 21, 1999, Q’uo spoke of the nature of the one great original Thought:

Far more entities request introductory information which concerns the concept of the one great original Thought of the infinite Creator from which all of the creation has been made, and the need for each entity to establish regular meditation times and practices so that more and more of this thought may be apprehended and utilized in the daily round of activities. When a group has persisted for a long enough period of time and has meditated faithfully, giving over a regular portion of the diurnal period to retiring to that sacred inner room to be in the presence of the one Creator, then there is the need for more intermediate information which Confederation entities are then able to give according to their own talents, shall we say. There are numerous entities within the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the One Creator who are able to serve in both the introductory and intermediate phases to groups such as this one.

You do not carry this within you as if you were a basket and it the precious cargo. No, my friends, you are far more like the pipe through which is funneled the clear precious water of the fountainhead, the wellspring of that clear mountain lake, full of living water. Things do not come from you as much as through you, for in whatever you may do, you are a channel. There is no situation in which you are not channeling and being used as an instrument either by yourself, by other entities, or by circumstances themselves. The great choice to make, then, in the desire to speed up the spiritual evolution is the choice to allow that through you which you desire to be spent through you. And never, if possible, to accept circumstance or environment as a reason for ignoring the opportunity for finding Love that may flow through you that you may become a Light to lighten the darkness of those about you who are seeking just such Light. Personalities have often been confused with pure channels. The pure channel is an impersonality, clear and exquisitely pure. If you would be a channel for Love, open yourself inside to that spring of living water in which your soul may bathe and become clean and shining pure and from which and through which a great light may shine in a dark world.

Then Hatonn said you do not carry this within you as if you were a basket and it the precious cargo, for you are more like the pipe through which is funneled the clear precious water of the wellspring of that clear mountain lake, full of living water, but things do not come from you as much as through you, for in whatever you may do, you are a channel, and there is no situation in which you are not channeling and being used as an instrument either by yourself, by other entities, or by circumstances themselves, so the great choice to make in the desire to speed up the spiritual evolution is the choice to allow that through you which you desire to be spent through you, and never accept circumstance as a reason for ignoring the opportunity for finding Love that may flow through you that you may become a Light to lighten the darkness of those about you who are seeking such Light, for personalities have been confused with pure channels since the pure channel is an impersonality, clear, and if you would be a channel for Love, open yourself inside to that spring of living water in which your soul may bathe and become clean and pure and through which a great Light may shine in a dark world. On September 6, 1987, Q’uo spoke of the value of our being a channel for Love:

My children, may we say each of you has gifts to give to each other, gifts to give to humankind. There are those things which you, before your incarnations, have planned to do in the service of the one infinite Creator. Please know that the very first of those things which each seeking soul hopes to do while in the manifestation of human consciousness is to become a channel for Love that others trapped in the mire of earthly time may have their despair turned to hope by seeing and sensing what they cannot explain: that Light within your eyes which speaks of a happy and sweet union with infinite Love. The Light from the eye of one who has spent time in the presence of that mysterious and unknowable Creator can be startling, but always is that which is a channel for renewal of hope and faith in others.

Before we leave this instrument, we would like to pause in order that you may feel the considerable spiraling energy that the combination of all of you and us create at this time. Allow it to whirl you ever upward as your seeking flies toward the Creator as toward a giant sun. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

I am Hatonn, and am again with this instrument. It is with great reluctance that we leave you, but we feel we have said what is called upon, and we know how you relish the silence. Therefore, those of Laitos greet and send Love to each as do we. We are known to you as Hatonn. Please know that in all your meditations we are most happy to be with you that we may aid you in deepening your meditation and that you may aid us in providing another opportunity for service to the one Creator that is expressed in each of you infinitely. We leave you in the Love and in the Light of the One Who Is All. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of our infinite Creator. We are overjoyed to be able to join you this evening. As always, we hope that our humble words will be of some small service to you. We would attempt to be of this service by answering those queries which you may have brought with you this evening. May we then begin with the first query?

T: I have a question regarding what I have read about what has been referred to as a soul mate, a person’s—I’m not sure, I don’t understand what’s involved in that. Could you comment at all on if this, indeed, exists, and is it fair for a person to expect to meet a soul mate in a particular life?

I am Latwii, and we feel we have the grasp of your query, my brother. The concept of that called the “soul mate” is one which is not well understood among your people, for it is commonly associated with a kind of cosmic romance, shall we say. There are, however, many friends, shall we call them, that have for great portions of what you call time and incarnational experiences traveled through these experiences together. There has been a bonding of desire to be of service in a certain fashion amongst these kinds of entities and, indeed, those who so join are not unusual, for there will be such groupings found widely scattered upon your planetary surface at this time.

Those who have shared of the soul stuff, shall we say, the essence of being, seek then together to express this beingness in the incarnational experiences and serve thus as teachers, each to the other. The experiences within the incarnation then that can be had are of a somewhat more rich, and pure, and intense nature, for it is not just the power or momentum of one incarnation that affects any individual within the present incarnation, but is rather the momentum generated by many, many such experiences and lessons that have been shared over great periods of time. We would add, however, that there are also those entities who have found that what you might call the mated kind of relationship is a further refinement of this general grouping that allows further intensification of the learning process and the sharing of service to others as well. Thus, the soul mates who have chosen to experience an incarnation from time to time as the biological mates does have its place, and is that which is experienced from time to time and in various incarnations, yet is not that which is as frequently experienced as is the general grouping of entities who have chosen once again to locate themselves in time and space as one group.

T asked: “I have a question regarding what I have read about what has been referred to as a soul mate, a person’s—I’m not sure, I don’t understand what’s involved in that. Could you comment at all on if this, indeed, exists, and is it fair for a person to expect to meet a soul mate in a particular life?” Latwii replied the concept of the “soul mate” is one which is not well understood among your people, for it is commonly associated with a kind of cosmic romance, but there are many friends that have for great portions of time and incarnational experiences traveled through these experiences together, and there has been a bonding of desire to be of service in a certain fashion amongst these kinds of entities and those who join are not unusual, for there will be such groupings found scattered upon your planetary surface at this time. Latwii continued by saying those who have shared the essence of their being, seek together to express this beingness in the incarnational experiences and serve thus as teachers to each other, for the experiences within the incarnation that can be had are of a pure nature, yet it is not the power of one incarnation that affects any individual within the present incarnation, but it is the momentum generated by many such experiences that have been shared over great periods of time, but we would add that there are also those entities who have found the mated relationship is a further refinement of this general grouping that allows further intensification of the learning process and the sharing of service to others, so the soul mates who have chosen to experience an incarnation from time to time as the biological mates do have their place, and they are that which is experienced in various incarnations, yet are not that which is as frequently experienced as is the general grouping of entities who have chosen once again to locate themselves in time and space as one group. On May 24, 2008, Q’uo spoke of the nature of soul mates:

In those cases, it is quite likely that entities who have planned to work together on some service or some incarnational lesson together within an incarnation have found each other. And that is a very hopeful and positive thing for an entity who wishes to do spiritual work. It is greatly helpful to have companions with whom to share one’s gifts and with whom to explore one’s challenges.

We might note in this regard that there has been a tendency within this group through decades of questions to visit the phenomenon of love at first sight or star-crossed lovers or soul mates. And we would suggest that, in fact, before the Creation has wound to its fullest spiritual gravity and returns to the one infinite Creator, each shall be a soul mate to each.

I am Latwii: May we answer further, my brother?

No, that was sufficient. Thank you.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, my brother. Is there another query?

Carla: Just to follow up on that. I’ve often thought that the group of people who got together when Eftspan was formed had some special closeness to each other that was impossible to express except that we were all really tight with each other without trying. Is that what you meant by the group incarnating together by choice?

I am Latwii, and since this supposition is known by those present, we can confirm that this is an example of that grouping of which we spoke.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: Yes. Then would such a group be more properly considered soul mates than the concept of soul mate of cosmic romance?

I am Latwii, and this again is correct, my sister, for it is the most prevalent type of incarnational pattern for those who have long sought the ways of the One.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: Yes. What, then, would you term the couple that decides to return in several incarnations as a biological male and biological female to seek for truth together?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my sister. The terms are also numerous which have been used to describe this kind of relationship or phenomenon. Again, the terms soul mate are the most widely used. You are also aware of the terms, star-crossed lovers. There are many ways and terms to describe the relationship that exists between two who have found their beingness and their desires to seek the Creator so much as one that they have indeed grown in many ways to become one being by pursuing the dual nature of the one Creator, that is, the male and the female, the light and the dark, the radiant and the magnetic. The terminology is at heart quite unimportant, for in the hearts of these beings there are no words to describe the yearning which draws each to the other.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: I don’t think so. I just wondered what a more apt term would be. I’m aware of the phenomenon, having experienced it myself with Don, but I never had felt that any of the terms used really had it down, and I wondered if there was a more precise description that could be invented, maybe. If not, you don’t have to answer anymore.

I am Latwii, and we apologize for our lack of ability to find words within your language which would properly express this phenomenon. May we direct our humble attempts towards another query?

Carla: Earlier, Jim and I were considering talking to a discarnate entity; it’s something that I’m aware is possible. And my concern was that by such continued conversation the discarnate entity might be tied in some way to the Earth plane. Could you comment?

I am Latwii and feel that we may comment thusly. The purpose of such a communication is the guiding force which will determine that which results from such communication. The desire to express the Love for such an entity and to, shall we say, complete that which may yet be incomplete would be acceptable for those involved. The intention to utilize the communication for any kind of personal gain, shall we say, then would distort the effort in such a fashion as to perhaps add weight where once there had been lightness.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No. Thank you.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, my sister. Is there another query?

Carla: Yeah. I’m kinda interested in what T asked in the first place. Is there for every man a woman, the way people sometimes say, or are some those who chose to incarnate to be solitary? Or to flit from flower to flower?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my sister. The assumptions that you have made are somewhat limiting, and we would hope that we may answer your query without confusion. The experience of one biological sexual orientation or the other during an incarnation is chosen for certain reasons by each of you and all upon your planet with the understanding that one so choosing includes both natures in the total beingness and wishes to express one of these natures during an incarnation in order that certain lessons and services might be more available according to the desires of this entity. Thus, for each man there may be many women, as you call them, and many men, as you call them, that have had the mated relationship at one time or incarnation or another. Yet there may also be, as we mentioned previously, those paired entities who have more often than others chosen to incarnate as polar opposite biological entities for the intensification of learning and serving that is made possible by such continued shared incarnational patterns.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No. I think I heard a definite maybe in there. I’ll be satisfied with that. Thank you.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, my sister. Is there another query?

Carla: I guess I just have one more question, and this is just a teeny one. But that is, are the cats excited because of the energy in the room? They often play like this during meditations, I’ve noticed.

I am Latwii, and we have noticed that from time to time, according to the harmony of the group gathered, the energies thus produced have this exciting effect upon those creatures which you have called the cats. We are aware that there is little that can be done in this regard other than removing these small entities from the room in which you work. However, we appreciate their response and playfulness.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you.

I am Latwii, and again we thank you, my sister. Is there another query?

[Pause]

I am Latwii. As it appears that we have exhausted the queries for this evening, we shall thank each for allowing us the honor and opportunity to join your meditation and your seeking for that which we and you call the truth. We are but your humble brothers and sisters who wish only to serve. Please take that which we have offered that may be of value and leave that which is not. We are those of Latwii. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “Let us understand that somewhere, sometime, somehow, we have accepted a belief that is no part of us, a belief that there are two powers—a God-power that can do something for us and is not doing it, and a power of evil that is very much in operation. God-power is already doing all that it can do, and it is operating in the Edenic state of consciousness for all spiritual creation, but it cannot operate in the world of two powers.

That is the reason that as good, moral, and benevolent as we or our neighbors may be, we and they come under sickness, death, accident, and wars. But over and over again the question is asked, “How can such things be if there is a God?” And the answer is a startling one: There is a God, but there is no God in the human scene; there is no God in the second chapter of Genesis: There is only a Lord God which is the law of cause and effect—karmic law. When we rise above the law of cause and effect, we are no longer under the law, but under Grace, or in other words we are living in the first chapter of Genesis where no such thing as human good or human evil exists. There is no sin, and there is no purity: There is just God.

If we have a problem either of our own or a problem of some member of our family, of a friend, patient, or student, or if somebody is looking to us for harmony because of our greater understanding, this principle of neither good nor evil must be practiced in our meditation:

Father here I am waiting to commune with You, but for what purpose? Is it to turn evil into good? If that is what is necessary here, would You not have done that before I had an opportunity to ask You to do it? But yet You do not seem to be doing anything about it, so perhaps that is not the need.

“Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty”—where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is no evil. Then what becomes of the evil? Nobody has ever discovered where darkness goes when the Light is let in, but when the sun comes up there is Light, and in the presence of the sun, there is no darkness. In the presence of God, there is no sin, no false appetite, no disease, lack, or unemployment, no insecurity or danger. Because all such things evaporate is God’s presence.

Where God is, I find no evil: I find God—God as my high tower, God as the health of my countenance, God as my supply, God as my all in all.

Whatever this is, in and of itself, it is neither good nor evil because there is no good or evil anywhere present. There is only God, filling all space; so there is nothing to be made good, and there is nothing that can lapse from good. God formed this universe out of Itself; therefore, it is God that is good, not the condition or the thing; and even though appearances may testify to either good or evil, I do not accept them.

God constitutes my body, which is the temple of God. God is my dwelling place; God is the health of my countenance; God is the secret place of the most High in which I live and move and have my being.”

At 10 am this morning I had an appointment with my new Primary Care Physician. I told her about my recent root canal operation. Then she asked me how I was doing, and I told her that I had finished transplanting my annual flower gardens. She asked me if I had any pictures of my flower gardens, so I showed her pictures of most of my flower gardens on my cell phone. Then she suggested that I go downstairs and get some blood drawn for testings. After I left her office, I stopped at Paul’s Fruit Market to buy some food for myself. Then I stopped in at Walgreen’s Drug Store to drop off two prescriptions to be refilled, and I bought some Tylenol.

This afternoon I was honored once again to co-host the European Law of One Telegram Group. Then I read Ra Session #71, and some of the questions that I was asked were: “What is the magical personality?” “How do we develop the magical personality?” “What is my purpose in dancing before I go to bed?” “What is the nature of psychic greetings?” “How do I use catalyst?” and “Where do I meditate?” I enjoyed everyone’s questions and the chance to talk about the Law of One in Session #71. I look forward to our next meeting.

After the session was over, I went outside and picked up many small tree limbs that had blown down in recent thunderstorms. I put them in two garbage cans and put the garbage cans at the end of the driveway for yard waste pickup tomorrow morning. Then I used Huff and Puff to blow the leaves in the parking area in front of my home into a pile, and then I put them into another garbage can for yard waste pickup tomorrow morning.

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

April 29

The Inarticulate Voice

I am the Spirit of the consciousness of Love, and I greet you in the name of Jesus the Christ.

We are principles of consciousness, the kind of consciousness in which all distorted consciousnesses have their origin. As in all consciousness, we are inarticulate messengers and are able to impress the paradigms and motivations of Love upon the mind and heart of the pilgrim only to the extent that the consciousness of the pilgrim is slanted towards the bias of the articulation of Love’s message for each and for the harmony of creation.

Thus, even if one seeks the voice of the Spirit, it is also well to seek the consciousness of intuition and articulation of feelings. For it is in small and often inarticulate ways that the voice of the Spirit speaks. And it is the wise pilgrim which has prepared the mind and heart for that still, small voice, expecting not the poverty of intellectual articulation but the riches of clear bias.

We leave you in peace, both now and always. 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 Yadda, Hatonn, and Latwii channelings for this session come from September 29, 1985:

(Carla channeling)

I Yadda. I greet you in Love and Light of infinite Creator, and am pleased that you have called us to you this evening. It is most pleasant for us to be present. Hah! Therefore, we greet you in much devotion. We are going slowly with this instrument, for this instrument is low in its vital energies and, therefore, we wish to be careful.

We speak only briefly, and that is to ask, “What prosperity is?” We are aware that it is something that all people upon your sphere wish. They wish to be prosperous, to have that which will buy that which you want to buy. There is a rumor going around that prosperity is unhappy or anti-spiritual. That is a misperception. There is another rumor going around that prosperity is all that one needs for the life experience. That is a misconception also. Look for yourself at the riches of your world. They come in different forms, and they are equal one thing and that is energy. We ask each of you to practice releasing the fear of prosperity or the hunger for prosperity and rest in the knowledge that prosperity is infinite and that you shall be infinitely prospered regardless of outer circumstance.

There are so many walls built up one brick at a time between people and nations and continents and forces due to greed. The hunger for prosperity is inappropriate because it will take your attention away from the Creator. The Creator will prosper you—you shall not be left alone. Furthermore, the earthly vessel of your body is but that a pot made of clay. It is that which is within that is important. Therefore, we ask you to think what is true prosperity. When do you feel that you have enough? We say to you, consider that you may feel that you have enough when you look within, not outside the self, for your prosperity is infinite and all that you need shall be attracted to you. In fact, we give you fair warning, my friends, be careful what you seek, for you shall receive it.

We go now. We leave you in Love and Light of infinite One. We are known to you as Yadda. Adonai. Adonai. Adonai.

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of our infinite Creator. It is a blessing for us to be able to share your life experiences at this moment, and we most humbly thank you that you have allowed us to share some few thoughts with you. We find that this instrument is excited about our contact, and we are pleased that this is so, for we had been working with this instrument word by word in an attempt to further improve this instrument’s ability as an instrument. The concept cluster approach is the one we often use due to the fact that it is more comforting to an instrument to know a little of what is ahead so that the instrument does not feel like a perfect fool. However, we can use an instrument more accurately if we are able to feed the instrument one word at a time. And this we shall do this evening.

We would like to tell you a story, and we should appreciate the opportunity to move backwards and forwards between the two channels within the group. Once upon a time, as all stories begin, there was a little girl who had a beautiful doll. The doll had beautiful blue eyes that opened and closed and lovely yellow hair that felt like silk and looked like true hair. The hair could even grow and be styled, and many clothes came with the doll, and this child spent many happy hours dressing and undressing the doll, speaking to it, making up stories with it and so forth until the doll became the child’s companion. As mothers often will, the child’s mother thought very little about the movement of the child’s mind from that which was tangible to that which was intangible in her child’s playing with the doll. But one day she realized that the child spoke to the doll and listened to it with equal sense of reality for both.

We shall transfer.

(Jim channeling)

This concerned the mother, for she wished to know that her young daughter was maturing at the normal pace and in a normal manner, for she wished the best for her daughter. She wished to see her daughter develop into one who could move through the world in a successful manner. These thoughts and attitudes flooded her mind all at once, and she became concerned that her daughter, in carrying on with the doll as if it were human, might be developing an abnormal behavior which could be deleterious to her further development. Yet, in her concern, she was quite unsure as to how to deal with the situation, for her young daughter seemed quite absorbed in the roles and playing of them with the doll and was quite content and happy while doing so. This seemed of benefit both to mother and child in her mind, yet it was the unusualness that concerned the mother. The mother approached the young daughter. She asked what it was that she talked to her doll about, and how it was that the young daughter seemed to be able to hear what the doll replied.

We shall transfer.

(Carla channeling)

“Whatever am I do?” she said to her cat.

“Meow,” said the cat.

“l know,” said the mother, “that’s what I’m really worried about, my daughter’s not being like other children.”

“Meow,” said the cat.

“I love you, too,” said the mother, “and I thank you, but I really am worried about my child. What shall I do?”

The cat followed, interested in the conversation. She stood looking at the beautiful trees in her yard and looked about and finally settled down to the sidewalk, for it was Fall, and it was time for the leaves to fall and for someone to remove them from their natural resting place. “Could it be that I do not need to talk to my child?” The trees whispered, the leaves rattled… [inaudible]… “No,” she said…

[Several minutes inaudible.]

…and in the giving up of the daily rush of thoughts, ideas and actions. This does not have to be a long, drawn-out procedure which will put you to sleep and which will certainly impart to those about you the knowledge that religiousness is boring. It needs only be done in joy and moment by moment. Yes, you may sit down to meditate, and that will help those about you to see that that is a normal and important part of the daily round. But it is that which you gain in the silence that will teach and be shared with those about you without your conscious knowledge.

My friends, you do not know what you do, and yet that which you do is perfect. You are, however, as seekers asking to become more and more responsible on deeper levels of knowing what you do, knowing where the roots of your consciousness are, and in what soil they grow. You are finally responsible as conscious and seeking beings for watering the roots of the tree of your consciousness that it may take in more and more and bring up more and more to consciousness from the unconscious roots so that it may blossom within your life and share its beauty with those about you.

This is a story about a child talking to a doll because the mother talked to the cat. This is also a story about each and every one of you and the little things that limn and etch your indelible character and quality upon the consciousnesses of others. Be graceful, then, in your ways, my friends, and let your smile be sweet and your words soft. For all wish to be peaceful and to be poor in heart and humble. All wish to be kindly affectioned one to another. Yet it is not possible for you as humans to do these things consistently. It is beyond human telling. It is not, however, beyond that which may be called grace but which we choose to call contact with the source of your being and all beings, that one great original Thought of Love. Love is what you seek; Love is what you will find, for all things are Love. No matter how distorted and seemingly ugly, there is Love there; there is Love everywhere. Seek and know Love, my friends. It is your gift to those about you and most of all your gift to yourself and to the Creator within and without you.

We would attempt to contact the one known as N at this time that we may bid you goodbye. We would now transfer to the one known as N. I am Hatonn.

(N channeling)

I am Hatonn. I greet you in the Love and Light, Light and Love of the one infinite Creator. Sometimes Light appears in the darkness for all to see. It is difficult… Transfer please.

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. We thank the one known as N for the openness to contact, and we assure this instrument that it will become easier and easier to sustain the concentration necessary to reproduce our concepts.

My friends, we leave you in one creation. It is an infinite creation. The finite eye shall never see its end, for there is no limit to the creation. Therefore, it being infinite, it is also One. You are an unique and perfect portion of that great consciousness. How we thank you that we have been privileged to share our thoughts with you. We ask you please to recognize our fallibility and to discard anything which we may have said which does not appear to be helpful, accurate, or true. As always, we ask that you use your discrimination in those things which we tell you, for we ourselves are only a few steps ahead in our evolutionary progress, and we share with you that which we feel we have come to know. There is far more for us to learn also.

My friends, the trees outside your dwelling rustle, the leaves turn, awaiting the chill of fall, and squirrels go chattering along the branches of the trees, storing away their food for the winter. How peaceful and beautiful are the sounds of this evening as we hear through this instrument’s ears and how full of Love is this room and those who dwell within it at this time. We are known to you as those of Hatonn. We leave you in the Love and in the Light of our infinite Creator. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of our infinite Creator. We thank you once again for inviting our presence to your joining in the seeking for truth. We, as always, are overjoyed to be with you. We hope that our few humble words may provide a service to you in the answering of those queries which you may have the value in the asking. May we then begin with the first query?

Carla: Well, I’ll jump in if nobody wants to. We sell books through the mail, and we have some wholesale book sellers that order our books. We’ve never put a price on the books, but several of the booksellers are giving us less for the book than it costs us to print it and mail it, and the situation will worsen as our costs go up in the next month or so,  with our prices having gone up from the printer. We have decided, at least tentatively, that we will continue to offer the book for whatever donation seems appropriate to the person, sending it through personal mail, but we’ve decided to tell the book shops what it costs us to make the book. We are concerned that we may have somehow broken the magic of total freedom from thinking about money, and I wonder if you can comment on that?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query, my sister. We may speak in general terms in this instance only, for it is a process of the exercise of your own free will which is being experienced and we would not influence that in one direction or another by suggesting that a decision in process is affecting what you have called your magical natures in one way or another.

You are aware of the principles which are in motion and in your efforts to be of service it will be necessary for the further application of these principles. We speak in general of those concepts which were touched upon by those of Yadda at the beginning of this meeting. There is the need to balance various desires and fears, the desire to serve with the fear of not being of service, the desire to be financially successful enough to serve with the fear of having too few finances to continue. As you move through your incarnational patterns, you will find the constant need to balance these types of concerns in various ways, for the question posed by those of Yadda is most pertinent to each who seeks the truth, that is, what is prosperity? How does one define…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and we are once again with this instrument. What truly nourishes one’s being? The answers to these queries are, as you know, of a philosophical nature, one which does not lend itself to proof. Thus, in your own seeking, you will continue to discover those clarifications in your own understanding that will allow you to make decisions in any area that concerns the giving and the receiving of the one energy which binds all in this creation.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, as always, my sister. Is there another query?

Carla: The only question I can think of, I can’t think of. The instrument and I were talking about sometime during this week, and a question came up, and we said we ought to ask about that. If the instrument can remember the question, would the instrument state the question and then answer it?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query in its form of desire but we are afraid that you have called upon a well which has run dry when asking this particular instrument to remember upon this occasion the query of which you speak. We search this instrument’s mind and are bumping into this instrument doing the same. We excuse ourselves and must also apologize to you, my sister, for we are unable to retrieve this query.

May we ask if there might be another?

Carla: What is the probability that within our lifetime, say before 2020, physics will have been rethought and refurbished, and a new paradigm found which includes the physics of consciousness?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my sister. We suggest that in your current culture and period of time there are those who have done a great portion of this work and who are in the process of sharing the blending of the current level of discovery of physics, as you call it, with the newer metaphysics, as many call it. The widely accepted ideas within the field of scientific thought as regards the nature of creation and its functioning is also in the process of slow change, as all thought and concepts change with new minds to hold them and old minds with new room develop.

The level of thinking of a culture is a reflection of the mass mind in its movement both consciously and subconsciously. Thus, as each individual within your culture and all cultures of this planet continues the process of learning the self, the life, and the environment about the self, these increased perceptions will feed the unconscious mind with a, shall we say, impulse that may be described as a desire. This desire serves to open pathways to the greater portion of each entity and each culture’s being. These pathways then allow an interchange of information so that one feeds the other, the conscious mind feeding desire, the subconscious mind feeding that which is desired. When this process reaches a certain point or critical mass, there is an acceleration which becomes quite rapid. That point is the point of which we feel you speak and it is difficult to determine precisely when that point might be reached by a societal complex, but it is a point which we can note is being more rapidly approached from the various avenues of individual and small group process.

Carla asked: “What is the probability that within our lifetime, say before 2020, physics will have been rethought and refurbished, and a new paradigm found which includes the physics of consciousness?” Latwii said we suggest that in your culture and period of time there are those who have done a great portion of this work and who are in the process of sharing the blending of the current level of discovery of physics with the newer metaphysics, and the accepted ideas within the field of scientific thought as regards the nature of creation and its functioning is also in the process of slow change, as all thought changes with new minds to hold them and old minds with new room develop. Then Latwii said the level of thinking of a culture is a reflection of the mass mind in its movement both consciously and subconsciously, and as each individual within all cultures of this planet continues the process of learning the self, the life, and the environment about the self, these perceptions will feed the unconscious mind with an impulse of a desire which serves to open pathways to the greater portion of each entity and each culture’s being, for these pathways allow an interchange of information so that one feeds the other, the conscious mind feeding desire, the subconscious mind feeding that which is desired, and when this process reaches a critical mass, there is an acceleration which becomes quite rapid, yet that point is the point of which we feel you speak, and it is difficult to determine when that point might be reached by a societal complex, but it is a point which we can note is being more rapidly approached from the various avenues of individual and small group process. On October 6, 2006, Q’uo spoke of the nature of reaching a critical mass:

Interestingly enough, when a certain amount of the awareness of a planetary group of people such as yourselves reaches a critical mass of consciousness, the people themselves, from their deep unconscious minds, begin to collaborate without knowing in their conscious minds that they are doing so. The result of these collaborations is a tear or a break in the continuity of the illusion of consensus reality. And in that interruption, images may appear that bring forward into outer expression the hopes, the dreams, and the fears of an entire culture or population of a planet.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No. I’ll have to read that over, but thank you.

I am Latwii, and we again thank you, my sister. Is there another query?

[Pause]

I am Latwii, and as it seems that we have exhausted the queries for this evening, we shall thank each for inviting our presence and offering us the gifts of seeking our humble words and allowing us to serve in our small way. We also wish each to remember that we are but your brothers and sisters, quite fallible in our own seeking, yet quite desirous of sharing that which we feel we have found. We are those of Latwii. We leave you now in the Love and in the Light of our one infinite Creator. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “Spiritual healing cannot take place on the human plane. It can take place only when you have stopped thinking of the person, and the disease, and the condition, and the belief, and the claim and have returned to Eden where there is only God, Spirit—wholeness and completeness. Nobody can ever be a spiritual healer who works from the standpoint of effect or who prays from the standpoint of trying to correct some thing in the Adam world because, if they succeeded, they would but have exchanged an unpleasant dream for a pleasant one. If they succeeded in improving the human picture, they would only have good materiality instead of bad materiality.  They would be no nearer the kingdom of God.

At one time I was sitting in a room with a person who was to all sense very near death, and I felt the same discomfort that anyone would feel in similar circumstances because I realized that there was nothing I could do to prevent his passing. I had no miraculous gifts or any miracle-working words that would prevent the apparently inevitable. Something had to come to me from the depths of the within, or there was going to be a funeral. All I could do was to turn within to that still small Voice and wait, and wait, and wait, and sometimes beg and plead.

Finally, it came, and these were the words, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased!” No one would have believed that if that if they had seen him. Here was disease in its final form; here was a person dying, and yet despite the appearance the Voice said, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” After those words came, it was not long before they became an actual fact in demonstration; and health, harmony and completeness were restored.

On another occasion, I was called to my own father’s side when he lay in an oxygen tent and, according to the physicians in attendance, was on his deathbed. I stood there with no words of wisdom that could change this appearance into heath; I stood there just as anyone would stand in front of their own father in such a situation, but with this difference: I knew that if God uttered Its voice, the earth would melt. Standing there, watching my father breathing through that apparatus, the words came, “man does not live by breath alone.” In less than five minutes, he signaled for the nurse to take the instrument away, and two days later he was out of the hospital.

Who decreed that that condition was evil? God did not; God merely said, “Man shall not live by breath alone: thus dissipating the belief that man lives by breath, and proving that he lives by the word of God.

Only as long as you entertain the belief in two powers, can you be in difficulty, You are free as soon as you begin to look upon all conditions with a “Who told you, you are naked? Who told you, you are evil?” Who told you this is sin? Who told you this is disease? Who told you this is dangerous? Where did it come from? Did God ever say that to anyone?”

The very moment that you perceive that your function as a spiritual healer is not to remove or heal disease or believe that God heals disease or that there are some formulas or affirmations that will remove disease, but that your function is to know the truth that this whole mortal creation is made up of the belief in good and evil, you will know neither health nor disease, poverty nor wealth but only a continuous outpouring of spiritual harmony—the Garden of Eden.”

This morning I went outside and hand weeded the two gardens in front of the fishpond. Then I transplanted three more Coleus behind the giant Sycamore Tree in the back yard.

This afternoon I went outside and transplanted nine Dahlia’s in the Ruins Mound. Then I pruned the dead Snapdragon blooms off of the Snapdragons in the clay tile pyramid in the back yard and in the Snapdragon Garden between the sidewalk and the Flower Fall Garden in the front yard. Then I pumped out enough water from the fishpond to bring the water level low enough that the fountain could shoot at its normal height due to five and one half inches of rain having fallen over night.

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

April 28

Praise And Thanksgiving

In Your Heart

I am of the spirit of Jesus the Christ, and I greet you in the full consciousness of Love.

Take this moment to become more and more in touch with that feeling of praise and thanksgiving that is in your heart this day. The trees praise the Lord. The hills and valleys rejoice. And the burgeoning flowers move through the earth to the sun in bursts of pleasure and chanting of happiness to the winds.

It may seem that there are obstacles to your joy and that the world is not one which you would praise. Yet gaze you at your own hands and at the mind of the Father which created such tools.

Gaze at the incessantly changing colors of your thoughts and behold the beauty of the creation of the Father.

Look at those who have served you and those whom you have served, those who have displeased you and those whom you have displeased, and praise the Father Who gives you freedom to make your own decisions about His creation; Who urges you to pick and choose, to think and select and grow.

The more your heart may stand in the light of faith, praising and giving thanksgiving, the more yet again shall the Spirit find this opportunity to be granted unto you in happy harvest.

The first word of praise in any day is an act of blind faith and brings the heart into peaceful concert with the harmonious plan of the Father.

May you choose to dwell in that peace, 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 Yadda and L/Leema channelings come from September 15, 1985:

(Carla channeling)

I Yadda. I greet you in Love and in the Light of infinite Creator. We so privileged to be here with you and we thank you for asking for us. We have just a few words to say for there is much [inaudible] one of our comrades, J. We only come to bless you and to be blessed, for in serving we are served. We do not leave you; we are with you if summon us mentally, we shall come. However, we shall relinquish this instrument without further ado. Farewell. I am Yadda. We leave you in the Love and in the Light of the One.

(Carla channeling)

I am L/Leema. I greet you, as do my brothers and sisters of Yadda, in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator in whose good fellowship we all [inaudible] learn and progress.

We shall begin our discourse upon what you call stress by using information which this instrument has in her mind already. It comes from what you call Zen Buddhism. The story is this. Once upon a time there was an old man. He sat in his room and prayed. When he was hungry, he went into the market and begged with his bowl. He went back to his room and prayed. In the course of time a young woman who knew the habits of this hermit was with child. She did not want the baby and so she stated that the young one had been begotten upon her by the hermit. She then left the baby with the hermit. The hermit then got up, took care of the child, nursed it, fed it, and worked very hard as a coolie for two years. The child prospered.

One day the woman who had lied about her child saw the child in the marketplace with the old man. The child pleased her sight, and so she went back and claimed her child. The old man gave her the child and then returned to his prayers. Stress is due to an emotional tension regarding the outcome of events which are seen within the framework of your space and time and as experienced within this incarnation. There are those who have nothing about which to worry who can worry, fret, and distress themselves into an early decline. There are others who one would think would be extremely stressed, but who exhibit a marvelous lack of tension from within. The trick is, my friends, to be aware that all things are as they are for a reason and that you are where you should be at this moment. The spiritual tense is the present tense. The unspiritual tense is tension. We do not suggest that you forget your history or cease having hopes for the future. We suggest rather a detachment born during meditation from the crying little needs or large needs which fill your days and nights.

In this session L/Leema spoke about the concept of stress. They began by saying we shall begin our talk upon stress by using information which Carla has in her mind, and it comes from Zen Buddhism, so the story is that once upon a time there was an old man that sat in his room and prayed, and when he was hungry, he went into the market and begged with his bowl, and then he went back to his room and prayed, but in the course of time a young woman who knew the habits of this hermit was with child, but she did not want the baby, and so she stated that the young one had been begotten upon her by the hermit, so she left the baby with the hermit, and the hermit got up, took care of the child, nursed it, fed it, and worked hard as a coolie for two years, and the child prospered. Then L/Leema said one day the woman who had lied about her child saw the child in the marketplace with the old man, and the child pleased her sight, and so she went back and claimed her child, so the old man gave her the child and then returned to his prayers, for stress is due to an emotional tension regarding the outcome of events which are seen within the framework of your space and time and as experienced within this incarnation, yet there are those who have nothing about which to worry who can worry themselves into an early decline, but there are others who one would think would be stressed but who exhibit a lack of tension from within, for the trick is to be aware that all things are as they are for a reason, and that you are where you should be at this moment, for the spiritual tense is the present tense, and the unspiritual tense is tension, but we do not suggest that you forget your history or cease having hopes for the future, so we suggest a detachment born during meditation from the crying little needs or large needs which fill your days and nights. On October 25, 2008, Q’uo spoke of the value of detachment:

The life of a religious recluse is designed to eliminate all possible distractions so that the seeker, the disciple, the student, may do nothing but wind the coil of the intensity of desire to know the Creator day after day and year after year. Nevertheless, there is no escape from humanhood within the bounds of flesh and blood, breath, and desire. The most humble and self-abandoned disciple shall still find itself desiring those things which shall bring comfort to the body, the mind, or the spirit.

The initiate does not stop being human. The initiate becomes transparent to its humanhood and is able to gaze upon the requests which the body or the mind may make to the self with a certain amount of detachment and a larger point of view which enables the disciple to act in a more skillful way than one who has not become initiated.

You will notice that the old hermit in the story had no money and left each day to its own hunger. He was quite aware that bread cannot be kept longer than a day. And in a spiritual sense this is quite so. If you have been inspired yesterday, by today the world will have moved in upon that inspiration. That is what the world is for, my friends. It is intended to encroach in any way or form that it can upon your peace of mind in order to test your peace of mind, for those who seek the truth are constantly at risk, constantly dying and being reborn. This is not a comfortable state. Entities normally resist change, and yet change occurs continually.

In the garden of your life, we suggest most emphatically that you make yourself a comfortable spot upon this crannied seat when you have come to your meditation. This seat is within your mind. It does not have to be physically present. In the quiet of this arbor, you can plant all that you want to, the glory of flowers and trees, the sweet singing of the birds, the gentle lifting of the breeze and the energy and power of Love here in your garden. It is to this garden that you return for your solitude. You can have this garden if you are in prison or in chains, or as is more likely, bound by your desire for outcomes, to living a life that is less full to living a life that is most principled.

Then L/Leema said you will notice that the old hermit in the story had no money and left each day to its own hunger since he was aware that bread cannot be kept longer than a day, and in a spiritual sense this is so, and if you have been inspired yesterday, by today the world will have moved in upon that inspiration, for that is what the world is for because it is intended to encroach in any way that it can upon your peace of mind in order to test your peace of mind, for those who seek the truth are constantly at risk, constantly dying and being reborn, but this is not a comfortable state, for entities normally resist change, and yet change occurs continually. L/Leema continued by saying in the garden of your life, we suggest that you make yourself a comfortable spot upon this narrow seat when you have come to your meditation, for this seat is within your mind, but it does not have to be physically present, and in the quiet of this arbor, you can plant all that you want to: the glory of flowers and trees, the sweet singing of the birds, and the energy and power of Love here in your garden, so it is to this garden that you return for your solitude, for you can have this garden if you are in prison or in chains, or if you are bound by your desire for outcomes, to living a life that is less full to living a life that is most principled. On April 12, 1991, Q’uo spoke of the power of Love:

As one becomes aware of the relationship between the Creator and the creation one sees that the power of Love is that which moves all things and all entities in patterns, or in rhythms, cycles and in seasons, that this enabling function of Love may be hindered or blocked by thoughts and attitudes that express themselves in behaviors that stop up or block the free flow of Love. This alteration of the power of Love in any life pattern allows for a more varied experience, for it would not be thought of by any entity who lived in perfect harmony with Love to stop its movement.

However, as each entity within the creation desires to serve the Creator by providing experience that allows the Creator to know Itself, so then does each entity alter to some degree this basic motivational power of Love. Altering or distorting the flow of Love causes the necessity for a balancing action that will once again allow the Love to move freely. This process of blocking and unblocking the flow of Love is that process which you call experience or evolution. This is a simplistic description but one which we feel is basically accurate for each portion of the Creation. Thus, as you pray and seek to intercede, or call for another’s intercession on behalf of one you feel is in need you ask that the power of Love to move freely be restored in an area where it has been blocked.

Let us introduce a concept here. This is important. You will fail, not just once but frequently, to avoid stress. The habit among your people is great, especially within your own country, as you call the arbitrary division of the creation. Do not feel cast down when you fail, for each moment is here. Each moment is a moment in which you have not failed. Hanging on to those things which trouble you about yourself or about others causes you to forget the electric present moment. This moment is infinite. If you can become one with the present just for a little while in your garden in meditation, you shall awake cleansed, refreshed, and more ready than before to recognize the trains of thought that shall bring you stress.

Meditation is an excellent means of gaining knowledge of the self. One of the great things that it begins to show you is the thought patterns, complex but predictable, which will result in the stressing of mental nervousness and physical nervousness. Much illness which is unnecessary is caused by this same stress. We say it is unnecessary; nevertheless, it is not mistaken, for when you are uncomfortable, you begin to pay attention. Once you begin to pay attention to your thought patterns, it shall be ever and ever easier to refrain from hanging like a terrier onto the hem of the garment of your worry. In the present moment, there is naught about which to worry.

L/Leema continued by saying let us introduce an important concept here which is you will fail frequently to avoid stress, for the habit among your people is great, especially within your country, but do not feel cast down when you fail, for each moment is here, and each moment is a moment in which you have not failed, yet hanging on to those things which trouble you about yourself, or about others, causes you to forget the present moment that is infinite, so if you can become one with the present moment for a while in your garden in meditation, you shall awaken refreshed and ready to recognize the trains of thought that shall bring you stress. Now L/Leema said meditation is an excellent means of gaining knowledge of the self, and one of the great things that it begins to show you is the thought patterns which will result in the stressing of mental and physical nervousness, for much illness which is unnecessary is caused by this same stress, so we say it is unnecessary, but it is not mistaken, for when you are uncomfortable, you begin to pay attention, and once you begin to pay attention to your thoughts, it shall be easier to refrain from hanging like a terrier onto the hem of the garment of your worry, for in the present moment there is nothing about which to worry. On March 20, 1991, Q’uo spoke about the nature of the present moment.

We would pause while we use some of your space/time for offering our vibration to those within this room. If you wish to be made aware of our presence, please mentally request it, and we shall be with you. The purpose of our being with you and the purpose of any Confederation entity’s being with you is to strengthen your ability to meditate and to soften the blow of the utter and complete solitude of each person’s life within the illusion which you now live. It is an illusion, my friends, but this does not make the solitude of the spiritual search any the less. We shall pause. I am L/Leema.

[Pause]

(Carla channeling)

I am L/Leema and am again with this instrument. We thank you for the opportunity to share your life experience at this time. We feel that it would be appropriate at this time to transfer this contact to the one known as Jim. Therefore, we leave this instrument in Love and in Llight. I am L/Leema.

(Jim channeling)

I am L/Leema, and we greet you again through this instrument. We are hopeful that we might be able to continue our development of our use of this instrument, and would do so by attempting to answer any queries which those present this evening might have value in the requesting. May we then ask if we may attempt a query?

J: I’d like to ask a question. You mentioned detachment. That’s very easy to say and harder to do.

I am L/Leema, and we thank you for this opportunity to clarify our statement, my brother. The detachment that we spoke of is a goal which each may envision for any area within the life experience where one finds great emotion, for the emotions and the desire that accompanies each for thus and such an outcome in whatever area is to propel an entity that it might gain experience. You have heard it said that experience is a great teacher. As you move through your incarnation, you will find that you have great attachment and emotional coloration in various areas. These are then your areas in which learning and service to others are most probable, for you have biased before the incarnation your thinking in order to allow learning and service to occur during the incarnation.

The emotions, therefore, signal the areas and the intensity in each area where you may focus your attention and profitably seek a balance to each emotion so that in your experience you will gradually develop a range of responses in these areas that will hopefully provide you with a broader perspective in each area. Where there has been intense emotion, then the pendulum, shall we say, is brought to swing in the opposite direction by slow degrees in order that what was previously unacceptable might become acceptable; that which was seemingly unforgivable, might become forgivable; that which is not seen as the Creator might then be seen as the Creator; where love did not seem apparent, then it will be seen to be ever-present. When this has been accomplished—and we agree it is a great task, my brother—then one will find that instead of the emotional charge in these areas, there will be, rather, a detached point of view which simply sees through the illusion to the Creator.

J asked: “I’d like to ask a question. You mentioned detachment. That’s very easy to say and harder to do.” L/Leema replied the detachment that we spoke of is a goal which each may envision for any area within the life experience where one finds great emotion, for the emotions and the desire that accompanies each for an outcome in whatever area is to propel an entity that it might gain experience, and you have heard it said that experience is a great teacher, so as you move through your incarnation, you will find that you have attachment and emotional coloration in various areas, for these are your areas in which learning and service to others are most probable, for you have biased before the incarnation your thinking in order to allow learning and service to occur during the incarnation. Then L/Leema said the emotions signal the intensity in each area where you may focus your attention and seek a balance to each emotion, so that in your experience you will develop a range of responses in these areas that will provide you with a broader perspective in each area, for where there has been intense emotion, then the pendulum is brought to swing in the opposite direction by slow degrees in order that what was previously unacceptable might become acceptable, and that which was unforgivable, might become forgivable, and that which is not seen as the Creator might then be seen as the Creator, yet where Love did not seem apparent, then it will be seen to be ever-present, so when this has been accomplished then one will find that instead of the emotional charge in these areas, there will be a detached point of view which sees through the illusion to the Creator. In 100.9, Ra described the value of seeing through the illusion to the Creator:

The positive polarity attempts to see through the illusion to the Creator in each mind/body/spirit complex, but for the greater part is concerned with behaviors and thoughts directed towards other-selves in order to be of service. This attitude in itself is full of the stuff of your third-density illusion.

L/Leema: May we answer further, my brother?

J: Lord have mercy! Reincarnation emotional coloring? I don’t know what all that is about. How would I know what my incarnation is? How do I find out about my emotional coloring?

I am L/Leema, and we are grateful to be allowed further clarification, my brother. There are many techniques. The ancient dictum, shall we say, is that one should know oneself. As you move through your daily round of activity, and you pause at the end of each day, you may assess the events which you have experienced. You will find what you call the positives and the negatives, those things which you liked and those things which you did not. You will find after repeating this assessment of each day over a period of your time that patterns emerge. Soon you will be able to predict what shall please you and what shall not. It is in these areas, where you find an emotion of any kind, that you may assume lie the lessons that shall allow you to progress upon your own spiritual journey. Your life, then, shall become your laboratory in which you experience the catalysts of various emotions. Then you shall retire, if it is your desire, at the end of each day to a quiet place in your meditation and assess the day’s laboratory work by proceeding in this manner. In a growingly dedicated fashion, if we might use poor terms, you shall continue to build your progression as you become more and more aware of those lessons which you have programmed within your life pattern.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: You mean I should come home at night and assess what I did during the day, and what about being with my wife and kids and all their problems? How does one concentrate on oneself?

I am L/Leema. We are aware of your query, my brother. You may do as you will, my brother, for there are no mistakes in any incarnational pattern. You have asked how one may become aware of the incarnational programming, the lessons, the services. To be constantly aware and to learn in a conscious fashion does, indeed, require a great deal of desire, a great deal of your time, and a great deal of your effort. Most upon your planetary surface progress in their evolutionary patterns in an unconscious fashion, shall we say, for either they have not the awareness that such can be accomplished, or they have not the desire to follow it. It will take effort to make room in the daily round of activities, to assess these activities and to use them as the food for your spiritual journey. Whether you do this in a conscious fashion or not, you shall still proceed upon that same path, perhaps at a reduced speed, shall we say. Yet you shall proceed.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: No, thank you. I disagree with you, and I agree with you, but I do like the idea about detachment. Thank you, sir.

I am L/Leema, and we thank you, my brother. Is there another query?

N: I have a query. I would like for you to differentiate with reference to the spirit as concerned with the difference between trance and meditative channeling.

I am L/Leema, and we feel that we may best respond to this query by suggesting that the meditative type of channeling, which is the conscious channel and which is utilized in the meditation, is of a dual consciousness variety. The ones serving as instruments are aware of both their own experience and consciousness, and aware that there is a stream of thoughts moving through their minds. As the thoughts are spoken, the channeling occurs. It is a product of our thoughts combined with the thoughts and concepts of the instrument that we are able to blend into our messages, shall we say, all tailored to meet, hopefully, the queries and needs of the ones requesting the information. Thus, we speak within boundaries determined by the questions, the use of words, and the experience of each instrument.

In the trance type of contact, the one serving as instrument plays a much more neutral, shall we say, role, for though words are used, words and concepts quite beyond the instrument’s experience and vocabulary might be transmitted, for the instrument in the trance type of channeling is much more the machine, shall we say, much as your telephone allows two entities to speak in a relatively clear fashion by its use. Thus, the information which one might derive from the trance type of channeling is potentially more precise in its ability to convey concepts.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: Thank you very much. But I was wondering if in trance if the instrument’s spirit was sort of displaced?

I am L/Leema. Upon this point we may suggest that in the trance type of channeling there is a greater need for the entity’s, as you have called it, spirit, or mind/body/spirit complex as it has been called by those of Ra, to step aside for the duration of the contact. This is what allows more neutral participation, shall we say, in that the one serving as instrument does not lend its own personal coloration to the contact or the information, for that coloration is not present.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: Many of those have gone through the brotherhood, and have come to feel that they channel their spirit guides, of which there are seven. I wonder if you would address the consideration for seven. Number one, as it occurs throughout our exposure as well as the consideration for their feeling that they have to be in a trance in order to channel their spirit guides, and yet they have no memory?

I am L/Leema, and we find there are various areas in which your query moves. The number seven is not one which we find is universal among your people, for each entity being of a unique nature will draw to it various guides, and friends, and teachers, both seen and unseen, throughout the incarnational experience as needed. In order to make contact with, or be influenced by the guides, friends, and teachers, one may utilize a great variety of techniques as well. It is more, shall we say, the “in” thing to do among your people at this time to make the more mundane type of two person contact in which words are utilized, this possible through trance, or meditation, or contemplation, also through automatic writing.

However, though these techniques may be somewhat more showy and more popular for that reason, one may make contact with these, shall we say, angelic presences by other means as well. To simply speak one’s thoughts to such beings while in a meditative or contemplative state, or even within the daily round of activities during such activities, one may communicate effectively, and one then may observe one’s own immediate feelings in order to become aware of the concept or feeling tone which may then be communicated back from such presences so that the still small voice within might further be strengthened. For, indeed, as one seeks upon the evolutionary path from any source, friend, or guide, seen or unseen, one seeks with the Creator, and the Creator within is that source which offers the guidance which is most helpful to any upon the path of seeking.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: May I ask one other question? There is an ancient science of vibration [inaudible]. Is there any possibility of your explaining that or at least addressing some area where it might be interpreted?

I am L/Leema, and your query again is one which covers an area that has been long studied by the peoples of various cultures of your planet, for all of creation, all of the patterns of illusion is held together by the vibration of Light. As the seeker becomes more and more consciously aware of the nature and purpose of its own life and the greater life in which it moves, it comes to see this pattern of illusion in a less and less distorted fashion. The study of vibrations, of sound, of color and of the very heart of creation itself is a study of the, shall we say, mechanics of the illusion that can be quite helpful when one attempts to make analogies between the nature of vibration in any particular area and the qualities of one’s own thinking, for the type of thoughts which an entity entertains is that which reflects the entity’s current vibratory…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am L/Leema, and am once again with this instrument. To continue.

These thought patterns then reflect the entity’s current position within its own pre-incarnatively chosen evolutionary path. The science of vibration, then, may be seen by such a conscious seeker to be directly analogous to the various energy centers or chakras within the entity’s physical vehicle, for each center vibrates at a given frequency utilizing the catalyst of the daily round of activity in an increasingly sanctified manner. Thus, any catalyst may move from lower to higher chakras or may be held or blocked at any chakra according to the pattern of thought common to the entity.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: If we could measure these vibrations, could we not increase or raise our own individual vibrations if we try it?

I am L/Leema and am aware of your query, my brother. One need not measure by any machine these vibrations in order to raise them. The conscious attention in contemplation, prayer, and meditation given to these vibratory patterns of thought is that which is most effective in unblocking those centers at which such patterns may be held or blocked, and thereby allowing the raising of that serpent within, which has been called the kundalini, in order that it might find its full height at the crown of the skull and at that energy center location.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: Where does the consideration for this ancient science lie? Interpretation of [inaudible]. Is it available to us in America?

I am L/Leema, and if we have understood your query correctly, my brother, there are writings and teachers representing this study available to all who seek it.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: Thank you very much. I haven’t been able to locate any. [Inaudible].

I am L/Leema, and we thank you, my brother. Is there another query?

Carla: I’d like to follow up on J’s question. It tells in the Bible, and I’ve learned that in every situation to be content, and I recognize that as a conscious way of avoiding stress—just to accept what is. However, I’ve been experiencing for some time an unconscious, totally unconscious, stress that sort of bubbles up in the unconscious mind, and losing some sleep and so forth, it has to do with breathing and so forth. But, the question is, when the source of the stress is in the unconscious, what tool can be used from the conscious mind’s data, I suppose you could say, to more effectively keep the unconscious stresses from becoming real emergencies on the conscious level?

I am L/Leema and am aware of your query. We wish to state that the unconscious or subconscious mind is the source of all emotional colorations which one may interpret as stress throughout each portion of the incarnation. It is the subconscious mind that contains pre-incarnational programming that will determine how one will see any event, and how one will color that event with the mind and the emotions. Therefore, whatever intensity of emotion comes into the conscious mind from the subconscious mind, the tools are the same for working upon such catalyst. Meditation, prayer, fasting, contemplation, working with dreams, and writing their meaning and relating such to the conscious life are tools which you have utilized as many have utilized in working with such catalyst.

When it occurs in a seeker’s life that the catalyst grows in intensity to the point at which the seeker feels their mental and physical well-being might be in jeopardy, there is the increased need to fuel these tried and proven techniques by increased desire, which may be called will, and by increasing also the faith that the further exercise of will will bear fruit, for within your illusion nothing within the life pattern is clear and easy to discern in the metaphysical sense. You live within and move within an illusion. Things are not as they seem. You progress in ways unseen. The will and the faith to continue to attempt to move in a loving fashion and in a fashion which is of service to others is that which is most important. The strengthening of the will and the faith is done in darkness, thus work can be done, for if it were clearly seen that you yourself are the Creator, that all that comes before your sight and experience is the Creator, and that all emotional responses are the Creator, then it would be easily seen that all is well, for all is One, and little experience could be gained in such clear seeing. Thus, you enter incarnation after incarnation in order to gain experience that becomes your harvest as you journey homeward to the Creator.

Carla asked: “But, the question is, when the source of the stress is in the unconscious, what tool can be used from the conscious mind’s data, I suppose you could say, to more effectively keep the unconscious stresses from becoming real emergencies on the conscious level?” L/Leema began by saying the subconscious mind is the source of all emotional colorations which one may interpret as stress throughout each portion of the incarnation, and it is the subconscious mind that contains pre-incarnational programming that will determine how one will see any event, and how one will color that event with the mind and the emotions, so whatever intensity of emotion comes into the conscious mind from the subconscious mind, the tools are the same for working upon such catalyst, for meditation, prayer, fasting, contemplation, working with dreams, and writing their meaning and relating such to the conscious life are tools which you have utilized as many have utilized in working with such catalyst. L/Leema continued by saying when it occurs in a seeker’s life that catalyst grows in intensity to the point at which the seeker feels their mental and physical well-being might be in jeopardy, there is the need to fuel these proven techniques by the will, and by increasing the faith that the further exercise of will shall bear fruit, for within your illusion nothing within the life pattern is easy to discern in the metaphysical sense since you live within and move within an illusion where things are not as they seem, for the will and faith to continue to move in a loving fashion which is of service to others is that which is important, yet the strengthening of the will and faith is done in darkness, thus work can be done, for if it were clearly seen that you are the Creator, that all that comes before your experience is the Creator, and that all emotional responses are the Creator, then it would be easily seen that all is well, for all is One, and little experience could be gained in such clear seeing, so you enter incarnation after incarnation in order to gain experience that becomes your harvest as you journey homeward to the Creator. On November 20, 2005, Q’uo spoke about the nature of our harvest:

In the fullness of this moment within the Creator’s beating heart, you shall return to the infinite Creator with your harvest and your burden of awareness and beingness, and in offering up the essence of all that you are, you shall once again be lost up in the Creator Itself, and the Creator shall be full of all that which it has learned from Its child. And in that diastolic moment, when the Creator’s heart rests between beats, all shall be measureless, unified and without any kinetic component.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you.

I am L/Leema, and we thank you, my sister. Is there another query?

J: May I ask if the answer to the last question implies that the only limitations we really have been those we have put on ourselves?

I am L/Leema, and this is most emphatically correct, my brother. It is the placement of limitations in each incarnation by your own free choice which allows you to experience and to gain a greater knowledge of yourself and the creation and the Creator through such experience. The limitation of the viewpoint is the source of all distortion, and distortion is a means by which experience is gained.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: Then you would imply from that if we eliminate our own limitations, then we have virtually complete command of almost any area that we desire through the thought process? Including the elimination of karma?

I am L/Leema, and this is also correct, my brother. Yet within each entity’s incarnational pattern there are set certain limitations, or distortions, or lessons, or services, for all are opportunities to experience the same thing, that is, the one Creator.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: But if we eliminate the consideration for boundaries, can we not review our lessons and learn them much more rapidly?

I am L/Leema, and though the statement is largely correct upon its surface, we feel there is the possibility of misperception in that it sounds quite easy to say that one is attempting to remove the boundaries of limitation. To approach from this angle is somewhat misleading, for this very process and activity is that which you undertake constantly in your daily round of activities by whatever technique you use or by no technique at all, this being the unconscious progression.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: No, thank you.

I am L/Leema, and we thank you, my brother. Is there another query?

N: How is the instrument doing?

I am L/Leema, and we scan this instrument and find that it is available for two or three more queries of the normal length. May we ask if you might have such a query, my brother?

N: I’d like to ask a question that Yadda D. said in the book, [inaudible] and also on some of his tapes, that before you enter a psychic [inaudible] you should know a lot about mathematics. How do you explain that?

I am L/Leema, and without being fully aware of the context in which this statement was made, we find that we are somewhat limited in our ability to respond. It is useful for some entities, depending upon the type of studies within the psychic or paranormal field, to be aware of the language of mathematics, for the illusion which you inhabit and your progression through it may have what may be called geographical, geometrical, and mathematical relationships. Each portion of the illusion is purposeful, in short. Therefore, one may gain an insight into the workings of the illusion, the creation, and paths through it by studying the language of mathematics. Yet at the heart of any such study, one must move beyond the mechanical and the outer teachings in order to find that source within that speaks all languages.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: No, thank you.

I am L/Leema, and once again we thank you, my brother. Is there another query?

[Pause]

I am L/Leema, and we thank each of you for requesting our presence this evening, and for allowing us the great honor of speaking our humble thoughts to you. We remind each that we are but fallible seekers of the same truth which is within each of you. Do not take our words too seriously, my friends. Use those which have value in your own seeking. Leave all else behind. We shall be with you at your requests and leave you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are known to you as those of L/Leema. Adonai. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “When we begin to realize that our body is the temple of the living God, we place our body at God’s disposal to use as God chooses, and then our body becomes an instrument for God, for the I at the center of our being. But we have to be willing to make some sort of a beginning, and that is done by knowing that there is no good or evil in our body since it has no qualities of its own: It merely expresses that which is imposed upon it.

This reversal or change of attitude toward body and the conditions imposed upon it is begun by consciously realizing:

There is no good or evil in my body: there is no age or youth in it; there is no strength or weakness in it. My body is just an instrument for the I, the God within me, which is the creative and maintaining Principe of my being.

Think for a few moments on the vital problems that are disturbing you, your own, your children’s, or your grandchildren’s. As you think about them, ask yourself, “Are these conditions good or evil? Who said so? Who decreed that they are good or evil?” Then ask yourself, “Did God create evil?” I think you know better than to answer that in the affirmative.

If God created eternality and immortality, if there is nothing in God that defileth or maketh a lie,” certainly God did not create evil. But, if God did not create evil, who did? Did anyone, or have you been entertaining a belief in good and evil? Who gave you that belief? Where did such a belief come from You may not know the answer to that question now, but as you work with the principle which is the theme of this book, the answer to this, as well as many other questions, will be revealed to you. At this time, however, why not be willing to accept the premise that in reality there is neither good nor evil?

When you reach the point where you can understand that all human conditions of whatever name or nature exist but as a belief in the human mind, a belief that resulted in humanity’s expulsion from the Garden of Eden, and when you become convinced in your innermost heart that because God is infinite there are no pairs of opposites, you can say with the Master, “ I have overcome the world.” Then, you are back in the kingdom of heaven where nobody knows what health is because nobody knows what disease is; nobody knows what painlessness is because nobody knows what pain is; nobody knows what wealth is because nobody knows what poverty is; and if one does not know what health and wealth are, how can one know what their opposites are? There is nothing with which to make comparisons: there is just God, just spiritual Being, perfection.”

Later this morning I made an errand run with my first stop at Thieneman’s Nursery to buy three more Coleus flowers. My next stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some food for myself. My last stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I bought a birthday card for a friend of mine.

This afternoon one of my friends from France and I went to the Yew Dell Gardens and walked around the many trails that have a great variety of flowers, bushes, trees, grasses, and vines. We took many pictures of each other amidst all of these beautiful plants.

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

April 26

Remove The Wall

I am of the principle of Jesus Christ which is called divine Love. I greet you in unconditional and eternal Love, no matter who you are, no matter how you feel about yourself, the Creator, Jesus the Son of Man or about Love Itself.

You hear this voice over a wall of your own making. We suggest to you gently this day that you may set about the work of removing that wall. There is a brick of self-condemnation; there a brick of hardened dislike admitting no reprieve; there an envy. What a brick that is and how firm the mortar!

You have so many possessive, hungry, sorrowful, suffering and lonely thoughts creating an anger and loneliness that says, “Where is comfort? Why do you speak to me of unconditional Love when I experience hardship, worry, and limitation of all kinds?”

We are the Spirit of peace and Love. And through the breath of this instrument we express in the world today, just as it is. For in its imperfection, how perfect, how lovely, how beautiful is the dwelling place of each soul and the soul that dwells therein!

May you learn to Love, a little at a time. But first, with the tools of forgiveness, remove the wall that stands between you and the comforting, strengthening, and enabling force of unconditional Love for you that awaits you on the other side of self-forgiveness.

We leave you in the utter peace of that condition and in the strengthening which that condition gives you to serve others in peace and joy. In these we leave you, 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. 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 Hatonn and Latwii channelings for this session come from August 18, 1985:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn, and we greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of our infinite Creator. We ask your patience as we found the necessity of once again answering the challenge due to the instrument’s movement which then caused the need for her own re-establishment of her ritual. We are most honored to be able to join each of you this evening.

The request has been made that the topic concerns the accentuation of the positive path in the seeker’s life as the result of the recognition of the bi-polarities, the positive and the negative. Each within your illusion is undertaking this very process. The nature and efficiency of the process is a function of the conscious recognition of this process. One can move upon this positive path in an unconscious sense. Yet, the movement is only possible up to a certain point. This point, however, may we reassure you, is quite sufficient for one to be, shall we say, graduated to the fourth density of understanding. Yet, one may enhance this journey and enhance the harvestability, shall we say, therefore, by becoming more consciously aware of the working of this process of accentuating positive perceptions and attitudes and the falling away of the more dark and dimly lit or negative choices.

Within your illusion are provided an infinite number of means by which you may continue this process. Indeed, your entire illusion is, may we use the term, a training ground, an opportunity in each instance for you to make positive or negative choices and thereby enhance your evolutionary progress. Whether the choices are conscious or unconscious, there will be progress in direct proportion to the purity of the choices, that is to say, progress is made by choosing a polarization, be it positive or negative, and following that choice in as frequent and pure a manner as possible. Each entity moves through the daily round of activities. Each entity has basic attitudes or points of viewing these experiences which color each experience in a repeating fashion as each experience symbolizes the perceptions and the emotional colorization that follow each perception, so that each experience is colored in an unique fashion by each seeker.

In this session Hatonn spoke about the accentuation of the positive path in the seeker’s life. They began by saying the request has been made that the topic concerns the accentuation of the positive path in the seeker’s life as the result of the recognition of the positive and the negative polarities, and each within your illusion is undertaking this process, so the nature of the process is a function of the conscious recognition of this process, for one can move upon this positive path in an unconscious sense, yet the movement is only possible up to a certain point, and this point is sufficient for one to be graduated to the fourth density of understanding, yet one may enhance this journey and enhance the harvestability by becoming more consciously aware of the working of this process of accentuating positive perceptions and attitudes and the falling away of the negative choices. Then Hatonn said within your illusion are provided an infinite number of means by which you may continue this process, for your illusion is an opportunity for you to make positive or negative choices and enhance your evolutionary progress, and whether the choices are conscious or unconscious, there will be progress in direct proportion to the purity of the choices, that is to say, progress is made by choosing a polarization, be it positive or negative, and following that choice in as pure a manner as possible, so each entity has basic attitudes of viewing these experiences which color each experience in a repeating fashion as each experience symbolizes the perceptions and the emotional colorization that follow each perception, so that each experience is colored in an unique fashion by each seeker. On July 25, 1982, Latwii said that each seeker needs to determine the positive or negative nature of any channeling:

We cannot determine, therefore, for any such instrument or channel the positive or negative nature of the experience, for this is most important to each seeker, and especially to those who serve as instruments. It is necessary that each seeker be able to discriminate for itself the nature of information which is garnered, whatever its source might be. In this way the pearls of wisdom, shall we say, truly then belong to the seeker, for they have been won by the seeker’s own efforts.

The point of viewing the experience determines whether it is seen in this or that fashion, whether it is basically positive or basically negative in the entity’s perception. Each experience, in truth, contains the one Creator in full, balanced, and perfect. This Creator may be seen in a positive or negative fashion. These positive and negative perceptions may then be further distorted into any number and variety of forms. Whether the form is one that works upon the mental level, the emotional level, the physical level, or the spiritual level, or any combination of these levels is a function of how the seeker perceives the experience. To give an example. An entity may wish to further the support of the family by enhancing the amount of money, as you call it, that is available for use. This desire to provide sustenance to the loved ones is a basic lesson of Love, for the entity who has taken the responsibility of supporting in a material sense those that are close and loved is one who then is sharing a form of Love. The desire, then, to be of service to others forms the foundation for action for this entity. This entity, then, as it attempts to improve its market position with, as you call it, the job or the occupation, fuels the desire by a desire that is at its base that of serving others. The entity then may engage in any number of activities upon the job that are designed to increase its income of money. This then may be realized in the entity’s life pattern or experience in any number of ways, for at the base of the action is the desire to serve others by providing material sustenance, further then translated or distorted by the entity’s perception to mean money or income that is then seen possible of obtaining from the job or through the occupation.

Now, what shall actually occur to this entity in this focus of its experience may or may not take the form that the entity images. For if it does not image with a consciously honed and precise mind or mental frame of reference, that which answers the desire may take a variety of forms. It may be that support or sustenance is challenged through the emotional complex in order that it then be, as you would say, of good cheer or greater cheer, and in such a fashion provide a form of nourishment that does, indeed, nourish those about it at a central portion of the being but does so in a form which is a great variance from that which was consciously sought because the conscious seeking was of an unfocused nature.

Then Hatonn said the point of viewing the experience determines whether it is positive or negative in the entity’s perception, for each experience contains the Creator in full, balanced, and perfect, and the Creator may be seen in a positive or negative fashion which may then be further distorted into any variety of forms, so whether the form is one that works upon the mental level, the emotional level, the physical level, or the spiritual level, or any combination of these levels is a function of how the seeker perceives the experience, and to give an example: an entity may wish to further the support of the family by enhancing the amount of money that is available for use, so this desire to provide sustenance to the loved ones is a basic lesson of Love, for the entity who has taken the responsibility of supporting those that are loved is one who is sharing a form of Love, and the desire to be of service to others forms the foundation for action for this entity, so as it attempts to improve its market position with the job, it fuels the desire by a desire that is that of serving others, for the entity may engage in any number of activities upon the job that are designed to increase its income, yet this may be realized in the entity’s life pattern in any number of ways, for at the base of the action is the desire to serve others by providing material support which is distorted by the entity’s perception to mean income that is seen possible of obtaining from the job. Hatonn went on to say what shall occur to this entity in this focus of its experience may or may not take the form that the entity images, for if it does not image with a precise mental frame of reference, that which answers the desire may take a variety of forms, and it may be that support is challenged through the emotional complex in order that it then be of greater cheer, and in such a fashion provide a form of nourishment that does nourish those about it at a central portion of the being but does so in a form which varies from that which was consciously sought because the conscious seeking was of an unfocused nature. On May 12, 1985, Latwii said that we are all here to learn the lesson of Love:

To begin with, yes, a plan may unfold its outline and its specific experience in a manner other than that which was planned, yet it cannot be said to be wrong, for each entity in each experience may observe the infinite opportunity to learn the lesson of Love. In some degree all plans will incorporate this lesson and will reflect this lesson in an unique fashion. When a plan has deviated from the course laid before the incarnation, there are, shall we say, certain fail-safe devices, as we may use this term, which also have been incorporated that have the hoped-for effect of bringing the plan once again back into congruency with that which was determined before the incarnation. There are an infinite number of these devices which are preprogrammed, and there are an infinite number of opportunities for the incarnational entity to utilize these devices or to ignore them, for, indeed, within the incarnation, free will needs that which you may call determinism, and the incarnation then becomes a balance between these two forces.

This is a general and quite simplistic example of the process whereby one consciously seeks and obtains some distortion of that seeking as a function of the purity, and clarity, and intensity of the seeking which motivates the action. In each life experience, one takes whatever focus of understanding one has concerning the process of seeking the truth—or accentuating the positive in this case—and sees through that focus any experience that may come before the entity in its daily round of activity. Whatever degree of understanding one has achieved through searching resources, meditating and seeking within for the truth of any resource’s information and then forming this focus of understanding will determine the clarity with which any experience is seen through this focus. Thus, as one fuels the desire to know the truth and accentuate the positive, as it has been termed this evening, one has done the fundamental requirement or step; one has laid the basic foundation for realizing whatever finer focus may be necessary in order to achieve the desire. One may then take this desire and further refine or tune the focus in order that that which is desired might be realized in a closer and closer approximation of image so that what is received more closely resembles that which is desired and sought.

This is a self-propelling or motivating process. Once one has become consciously aware that such a process is being undergone and is a portion of one’s experience and being, the seeking to understand more clearly how this process functions is that fuel which will allow one to refine the process according to the intensity and the efficiency, shall we say, of one’s seeking. Whatever resources are sought and utilized is then taken in a distilled form by the conscious seeker into the meditation in order that the truer portions of the information may, shall we say, percolate or resonate through the mind down into the roots of mind where the truth of all being resides and attract to it some portion of truth that resonates in a frequency with the information so sought and rises then through the unconscious mind through the intuition and in various symbolic forms becomes available to the conscious mind in order that the conscious mind might be informed of that which it has requested.

Hatonn continued by saying this is a general example of the process whereby one consciously seeks and obtains some distortion of that seeking as a function of the purity, clarity, and intensity of the seeking which motivates the action, for in each life experience, one takes whatever focus of understanding one has concerning the process of seeking the truth—or accentuating the positive in this case—and sees through that focus any experience that may come before the entity in its daily round of activity, so whatever degree of understanding one has achieved through meditating and seeking within for the truth of any information and then forming this focus of understanding will determine the clarity with which any experience is seen through this focus, and as one fuels the desire to know the truth and accentuate the positive one has done the basic step and laid the foundation for realizing whatever finer focus may be necessary in order to achieve the desire, but one may take this desire and tune the focus in order that that which is desired might be realized in a closer approximation of image, so that what is received more closely resembles that which is desired. Now Hatonn said this is a self-propelling process, for once one has become consciously aware that such a process is being undergone, and it is a portion of one’s experience and being, the seeking to understand more clearly how this process functions is that fuel which will allow one to refine the process according to the intensity of one’s seeking, and whatever resources are utilized are taken in a distilled form by the conscious seeker into meditation in order that the truer portions of the information may resonate through the mind down into the roots of mind where the truth of all being resides and attract to it some portion of truth that resonates in a frequency with the information so sought and rises through the unconscious mind through the intuition and in various symbolic forms becomes available to the conscious mind in order that the conscious mind might be informed of that which it has requested. On October 13, 1985, L/Leema described the roots of our mind:

As one quiets the mind by removing the attention from the outer world of winds, one moves down the branches to the trunk of the tree of mind. The trunk may represent the deeper levels of meditation, which may be likened unto the waves of the brain which have been described as the alpha waves, which correspond to the lighter levels of dozing or sleep but with the attention focused and alert. The mind may further be quieted and focused upon fewer and fewer points until the point of unity of focus is achieved.

This moves further down the trunk of the tree, and as the tree then moves into the ground with its system of roots, so may the conscious mind be passed from, and the attention of the mind/body/spirit complex be able to perceive below the conscious mind into the roots of mind in a fashion which uncovers awareness of experience not consciously known to the entity.

This movement is that which roughly corresponds to the movement from the conscious meditation to the more trance-like state of awareness in which portions of the subconscious mind become available to the focused attention of the mind/body/spirit complex. As various of the roots of the tree of mind are explored by the focused attention, there is a deepening and enrichment of the trance state. The ability of an entity to remember consciously that which occurs while in the deeper levels of the trance state is a function of that entity’s ability to achieve this trance state consciously as a function of the exercise of will and the practice of this ability. Many entities in the dream state enter the roots of the tree of mind and yet remember little of the experiences gathered there upon awakening, for there has been little conscious effort made to train the self to retain that which is experienced. The practice, whether in trance or in dreams, of remembering those experiences which occurred within the roots of the tree of mind is gained by the repetition of such experience.

As the conscious mind seeks in a more and more efficient manner, fueled by the continuing great desire to know the truth, the information gotten by this search, then, through meditation is passed through deeper levels of the unconscious mind and attracts that which resonates in frequency with it, further accelerating the conscious recognition of the process of evolution that is being experienced in the day-to-day activities of the more and more conscious seeker of truth. Thereby is the focus through which the seeker views each experience expanded and expanded upon each level of understanding through the emotional colorization, the mental analysis, the physical symbolic experience, and the spiritual basis for each other perception. The focus, then, is seen to include more of each experience as being seen as a distortion of the Creator by the seeker, whether the distortion be towards Love, wisdom or unity, those three portions that are available to all seekers in each experience.

To sum this lengthy discourse, and one which we hope has not been overly complex, we may use an analogy further utilizing the concept of the school with the grades that represent the levels of understanding or densities of experience. In your third-density illusion, each experience is a question—each experience is the same question. There is only one question on this test which you call life. It is reflected in each experience. The question is, “Do you see Love in this experience?” In some degree the seeker will see Love in each experience; in some degree the seeker will not. As the seeker is able to answer each experience question with an answer that approaches one hundred percent “Yes,” the seeker is polarizing in the positive sense. We may report that the good news of the test is that fifty-one percent is passing. When the seeker is able to answer each answer to a level of fifty-one percent of experiencing and seeing Love, the seeker is then of a polarized enough nature to move into the fourth-density grade in the octave of creation that you now experience. The seeker, then, has achieved the minimum polarization that will allow it to withstand the greater intensity of energy available within the fourth-density class. Without at least the ability to see Love in fifty-one percent of one’s perceptions and experiences, the energy available in the fourth-density class would be too much for the circuit of the seeker who had not yet sufficiently regularized or polarized its being in order that its circuits not be blown, shall we say, as the greater intensity of Light became the reality for the seeker.

Now Hatonn said as the conscious mind seeks in a more efficient manner, fueled by the continuing desire to know the truth, the information gotten by this search through meditation is passed through deeper levels of the unconscious mind and attracts that which resonates in frequency with it, further accelerating the recognition of the process of evolution that is being experienced in the day-to-day activities of the conscious seeker of truth, so the focus through which the seeker views each experience is expanded upon each level of understanding through the emotional colorization, the mental analysis, the physical symbolic experience, and the spiritual basis for each other perception the focus is seen to include more of each experience as being seen as a distortion of the Creator by the seeker, whether the distortion be towards Love, wisdom, or unity are available to all seekers in each experience. Hatonn went on to say we may use an analogy further utilizing the concept of the school with the grades that represent the densities of experience, for in your third-density illusion each experience is the same question, but there is only one question on this test which you call life, and it is reflected in each experience, so the question is, “Do you see Love in this experience?” So, in some degree the seeker will see Love in each experience, and in some degree the seeker will not, for as the seeker is able to answer each experience question with an answer that approaches one hundred percent “Yes,” the seeker is polarizing in the positive sense, and we say that the good news of the test is that fifty-one percent is passing, for when the seeker is able to answer each answer to a level of fifty-one percent of experiencing and seeing Love, the seeker is of a polarized enough nature to move into the fourth-density grade in the octave of creation that you now experience, so the seeker has achieved the minimum polarization that will allow it to withstand the greater intensity of energy available within the fourth-density class, but without at least the ability to see Love in fifty-one percent of one’s perceptions and experiences, the energy available in the fourth-density class would be too much for the circuit of the seeker who had not yet polarized its being in order that its circuits not be blown as the intensity of Light became the reality for the seeker. On August 16, 1981, Latwii described the nature of the fourth density tree:

This is a difficult subject, for the mind is attempting to rationalize whether the second-density tree at third density is the same second-density tree in fourth density. Yes, my brother, it is the same tree, but in the fourth density of vibration it will have slightly different characteristics and will be able to have a more conscious relationship with the fourth-density being, for instance, being able to communicate the simple second-density feelings to the fourth-density entity. It remains the same tree, but as each density observes it, it grows in its ability to be understood in its essence.

We remind each that our words are but humble attempts to describe and share that which is quite beyond description, yet may be shared in some form where there is desire to know and desire to share. We, therefore, thank each of you for providing the desire to know, and we remind each that our words are but our fallible attempts to be of the service which you desire. We shall leave this instrument at this time in order that our brothers and sisters of Latwii may offer their service of attempting queries which those present may find the value in requesting. We are those of Hatonn and we leave you now in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and we are honored as well to join your group in the name of the one infinite Creator whose Love and Light illumine all experience. May we begin with the first query, since our brothers and sisters of Hatonn have given our preface?

[Pause]

I am Latwii, and we are most surprised, my friends. It is not often that we join this group without queries having been placed before us. We are aware that the beginning message this evening was one which might somewhat boggle the mind, and we hope that our brothers and sisters of Hatonn have not overtaxed the understanding and patience of this group. We are happy to pass on to the one known as J the greetings of his friends of Yadda. We are aware that these of Yadda would have been happy to greet the one known as J in person if there had been the presence of an instrument capable of channeling these vibrations which are of a somewhat unusual nature. Nevertheless, Yadda says, “Hi.” We also greet each of you and thank you for even this small portion of your time.

J: Wait—I have a question.

Latwii: Ah—we are pleased. May we hear the query, my brother?

J: If one thinks in the negative, does it distort the aura?

I am Latwii and would be happy to attempt this query, my brother. In short, yes, but we must qualify that response, for whatever manner one uses to perceive, there is a corresponding distortion to the aura, for the aura may be seen as a reflection of one’s mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual being. Therefore, any thought within one’s being is reflected in a corresponding fashion in one’s aura.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: So. A person is physically, mentally, and spiritually, and if he thinks negatively, all three are distorted?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my brother. This again is true, but must be qualified. The effect moves through all of the energy complexes, the physical, the intellectual, the emotional for its duration, and the spiritual, for the entity is one being undergoing experience upon each level. Each experience, each perception of experience will then be reflected in all portions of one’s being. The mental and the physical, when the mental becomes unbalanced, are the energy centers most affected by one’s thinking. If one perceives in a negative or unharmonious or unbalanced manner in a certain area of experience for a long enough portion of time, the mental negative frame or focus will be translated or transferred to the physical body in the form of what you would call a disease, for it reflects the disharmony of the mind and serves therefore as a teaching tool that the mind might see a reflection of its thinking and serve then to balance that thinking and remove the disharmony and the corresponding disease.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: If someone were to think negatively and then two hours later found out that he was thinking negatively, can he correct it?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query…

J: Wait a minute—could I go a little further, please?

Latwii: We would be happy to have you do so, my brother.

J: Okay. Can he correct the disease and disharmony also, or is the damage done?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my brother. The ability to correct a disharmony which has taken the form of a physical disease is in direct proportion to the intensity of the thought and the length of time of the thinking of this thought, for time often intensifies the form which thought takes. The ability to correct the disharmonious thought and its corresponding diseased physical form is then a function of the intensity of the balancing action which the entity has been able to successfully undertake. Where Love was not seen and was not shared, there must be the ability to see and share Love in a form or intensity which balances the movement away from Love which then became the distortion of the mental and then the physical nature.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: Well, I get very angry at myself sometimes. And I enjoy the anger, but then I know that I’ve done something wrong. Does that still mean that I can correct that anger?

I am Latwii and may respond by saying most emphatically yes, that there is no thought or action that cannot be balanced, for all experience is undertaken within the realm of the one Creator which contains as much Love in the positive form as there is the seeming lack of Love in the negative form. Because you experience your life within the form of creation, there is as much potential for you to utilize the positive expression of that form as there is the opportunity and potential to experience the negative of that Love.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: Thank you. So, to simplify, you accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative. Thank you.

I am Latwii, and we could not have put it better. And we thank you. Is there another query?

D: I’ve been reading a book lately—I’m reading it through a second time on and in that book, they point out that a lot of times the way that we deal with others and treat others depends on the way that we speak to ourselves and treat ourselves, and that there are mental voices in our heads. We learn from our parents a way of dealing with ourselves—am I making any sense? Anyway, the question that I have is when we catch ourselves talking to ourselves in a less than kind or loving manner, do you have any advice on how we can turn that around and become kinder to ourselves and thus to…

[Side one of tape ends.]

I am Latwii and am once again with this instrument. We may begin by suggesting that to the seeker all about it is a symbol of its seeking. Within your culture it is logical that the parental experience, that is, being the child with the mother and father, would be utilized as a basic means of talking to the self, shall we say, and of dealing with the world about the self, for the mother and father are the two greatest formative forces within the entity in its early life and thereby form the foundation stones upon which the entity shall form its point of viewing itself and the world about it. When the entity finds itself talking to itself or behaving in a manner which is less than loving, the entity may use this experience as catalyst for growth, food for thought, the focus for meditation, for each viewing of the self in a less than loving manner is a symbolic representation of a basic attitude or experience which the entity has programmed into its life pattern in cooperation with, most especially, the parents and others about it in order that there might be the balancing or biasing of the being in a certain fashion that lends to an overall balance of the total being, or soul, or spirit, of an entity. This lesson or program emerges in symbolic form throughout the entity’s life experience.

Each time an entity in any single experience views itself or another in a manner which is less than Loving, that experience can be used to achieve the balancing of Love. In meditation there may be the focus upon what is mentally known. However much the entity analyzed the seeing of the self in a negative fashion and has thought upon this subject, these distillations of thought may then be taken to the meditation and further focused upon in order that the unconscious mind may respond in a fashion which our brothers and sisters of Hatonn spoke upon earlier, and give the conscious mind some form or symbol of that which it seeks. These symbols from the unconscious mind may become apparent to the conscious mind by intuitional inspirations, a hunch, what is frequently called the “aha” experience, as an answer to a long-asked query finally surfaces, or through dreams as the symbols are given again and again, thus accounting for what you would call the repeating dream. As the conscious mind becomes more aware of why it sees a portion of the self in a negative fashion, this understanding then releases the necessity for seeing in this fashion, for the entity has achieved some degree of the lesson that it programmed in the form of the understanding which it has now achieved, the product of experience, analysis and meditation allowing the intuition to bring a portion of that which is sought.

D asked: “I’ve been reading a book lately—I’m reading it through a second time on and in that book, they point out that a lot of times the way that we deal with others and treat others depends on the way that we speak to ourselves and treat ourselves, and that there are mental voices in our heads. We learn from our parents a way of dealing with ourselves—am I making any sense? Anyway, the question that I have is when we catch ourselves talking to ourselves in a less than kind or loving manner, do you have any advice on how we can turn that around and become kinder to ourselves and thus to…” Latwii replied we suggest that to the seeker all about it is a symbol of its seeking, for within your culture it is logical that being the child with the mother and father, would be utilized as a basic means of talking to the self and dealing with the world about the self, for the mother and father are the two greatest formative forces within the entity in its early life and form the foundation stones upon which the entity shall form its point of viewing itself and the world about it, and when the entity finds itself behaving in a manner which is less than loving, the entity may use this experience as catalyst for growth and the focus for meditation, for each viewing of the self in a less than loving manner is a symbolic representation of an experience which the entity has programmed into its life pattern in cooperation with the parents and others about it in order that there might be the biasing of the being in a certain fashion that lends to an overall balance of the total spirit of an entity, so this lesson emerges in symbolic form throughout the entity’s life experience. Latwii went on to say each time an entity in any experience views itself or another in a manner which is less than Loving, that experience can be used to achieve the balancing of Love, for in meditation there may be the focus upon what is known, but however the entity analyzed the seeing of the self in a negative fashion, and has thought upon this subject, these distillations of thought may be taken into meditation and focused upon in order that the unconscious mind may respond in a fashion which our brothers and sisters of Hatonn spoke upon earlier, and give the conscious mind some symbol of that which it seeks, for these symbols from the unconscious mind may become apparent to the conscious mind by intuitional inspirations as an answer to a query surfaces, or through dreams as the symbols are given accounting for the repeating dream, and as the conscious mind becomes aware of why it sees a portion of the self in a negative fashion, this understanding releases the necessity for seeing in this fashion, for the entity has achieved some degree of the lesson that it programmed in the form of the understanding which it has now achieved, the product of experience and meditation allowing the intuition to bring a portion of that which is sought. On May 8, 1983, Latwii spoke about the value of our intuitional inspirations:

As you meditate, and again fertilize your meditation with your desire to know the truth, you shall open deeper portions of yourself, those portions which serve as resources to the conscious mind. The intuitional inspirations then shall travel through the same openings, and become apparent to your conscious mind. You may find then in this manner that there are a number of possible solutions or possibilities that shall be presented to you as a result of such mediation. The intuitional inspirations may offer the more specific type of suggestions as to what lessons are being made available to you through the situations which you see and describe as procrastination in a more general manner. You may also discover that the desire which you take with you in meditation to seek the truth also returns to you enhanced, and becomes, shall we say, a motivational force or factor which allows you then to utilize the specific inspirational hunches which rise from the deeper portions of your being.

We apologize for the length of this query’s response, for the query was one of depth, and we felt the necessity of responding in depth in as well. May we respond in any further or simpler fashion, my sister?

D: No. [Inaudible] Thank you.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, my sister. Is there another query?

[Pause]

I am Latwii, and we had thought that perhaps if we waited for a long enough time once again, we would have another opportunity to answer a query, but we find that we have well and truly exhausted the queries for the evening. We thank you, each of you, my friends, for your request for our presence and the special gifts of your queries. We shall be with you in your meditations and any request. We leave you now in the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are those of Latwii. Adonai. Adonai, my friends.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “The question may arise in your mind, “How can I stop thinking about and believing in good and evil?” Let me give you an example which may help to clarify this point. Look at your hand, and ask yourself, “Is it a good hand or is it a bad hand?” And if you carry out into practice what you have learned thus far, you will have to admit that your hand is neither good nor bad: it is just a hand, a piece of flesh and a bundle of bones. It has no power to act in or of itself: it cannot pet, and it cannot punch; it cannot give, and it cannot withhold. But you can use it as an instrument for giving or withholding. You can do such things, but the hand cannot.

The hand is but an instrument for your use. It can be used for various purposes: it can give generously and benevolently or steal unashamedly, but this hand cannot of itself do anything. There has to be something to move the hand. Since you govern your hand, you can empower it to do good or evil, and not only can you empower the hand but also the body, sometimes to do good and sometimes to do evil.

However, when you have transcended mind and thought, it is then that both mind and body are governed and controlled by the I that is God, and this produces a mind, body, and daily experience which are neither good nor evil but spiritual. The secret again is in the attainment of the unconditioned mind through which the Soul functions as life and experience.

The very moment you are willing to admit that this hand can of its own self do nothing, it is governed by the I, and from then on it becomes an instrument of God carrying with it only the power to bless because you and I, of our own human selves, are no longer governing this hand: now I am, and I is God.”

Later this morning I arranged the five extra chairs in the living room for our public channeling session that will begin at 1 pm this afternoon.

This afternoon our public channeling session was attended by ten attendees and three instruments. Some of the questions that were asked of Q’uo were: “How do we help other people who are being abused?” “How do we heal wounds that we feel but do not remember?” “How do we best serve a patient as a therapist when we feel unseen spirits are present?” “How do we know that we are being of service?” and “How do we deal with a wounded companion?” It was another great group of open-hearted souls that always inspire me by their very presence!

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

April 25

By What Star Shall You Steer

I am of the principle of Jesus the Christ, and I greet you in the full and divine Love of creation and Creator.

Does it not seem to you somehow unusual that we who accept the phrase of Holy Spirit never call ourselves holy and that we who are the Spirit of the living Christ never call Jesus Christ, Lord?

We are of the principle of full and divine consciousness and as such we are servants of your souls, those who Love the spirit within you.

It is for you to choose what principle guides your life, by what star you shall steer. Shall it be the Love of Jesus Christ, and shall you call Jesus Christ Lord of your life? That is your decision.

Your capacity for worship is your own private treasure. May you ever enlarge and make more noble and uplifted your times of worship and adoration! And if, as yet, you do not worship and do not adore, then spend more time in the inner room of silence, listening, in the growing awareness of Love.

We leave you in the Love and peace of Jesus the Christ, 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. 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 L/Leema and Yadda channelings for today come from August 11, 1985:

(Carla channeling)

I am L/Leema, and I greet you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. It is a privilege and a blessing to be called to this meeting this evening, and we share your path with you for a few short moments with utmost gratitude and in hopes that we may be of service to you as we discuss the question which you have put before us, that question being, “What is the nature of prejudice?”

The one whom you have often called the Ancient of Days, whom we prefer to call the Creator, or the one original Thought, designed a universe with interest in the variety of consciousness which might precipitate from the giving of free will to various portions of the Logos or Love. This variety was seen to be positive in nature and was intended further, in this particular Logos which your planet is influenced by, to offer endless opportunities for polarity, that is, the polarization in consciousness betwixt two conscious entities, thereby giving more variety of experience to the Creator. Therefore, from the same point of the one original Thought there is no possibility of prejudice. Now let us comb through many densities, many eons of developmental time and space to that illusion which you now experience which is the fruit of all experience that has gone before. As your third-density experience nears its end, the polarity which it is possible for this population to develop has been more or less developed, and some of those polarities involve biases which among your peoples are called prejudicial.

We would like to make two points about prejudice. Firstly, there is an understanding of the word itself which separates the negative portion of prejudice from the positive portions of prejudice. The root of this particular word in your language—and we take this from this instrument’s mind—is the Latin judicare, meaning to judge or discriminate. However, there is a prefix that is “pre-fixed,” in other words, there is that which goes before the judgment or discrimination. Literally, the word means “to prejudge,” to judge before you know the facts, to go into relationship with a stranger whom you have not previously known, and whose heart and essence you cannot possibly begin to touch, with a pre-formed and hardened opinion which takes on some of the negative qualities of that which you call among your peoples, will. The negative portion of prejudice, therefore, is simply that those who make judgments before they know the heart of any subject or consciousness are robbing themselves of an even greater variety of biases which might develop were one to attempt to walk in, as this instrument would say, the other person’s shoes, to feel as they feel, to think as they think, to be in the situation in which this entity exists.

The concept that L/Leema discussed this session was: What is the nature of prejudice? L/Leema began by saying the one whom you have called the Ancient of Days, whom we prefer to call the Creator, or the one original Thought, designed a universe with interest in the variety of consciousness which might precipitate from the giving of free will to various portions of Love, and this variety was seen to be positive in nature and was intended to offer endless opportunities for polarization in consciousness betwixt two conscious entities, thereby giving more variety of experience to the Creator, so from the one original Thought there is no possibility of prejudice, and now let us comb through many densities of developmental in time and space to that illusion which you now experience which is the fruit of all experience that has gone before, for as your third-density experience nears its end, the polarity which it is possible for this population to develop has been more or less developed, and some of those polarities involve biases which are prejudicial. Now L/Leema said we would like to make two points about prejudice, so firstly, there is an understanding of the word which separates the negative portion of prejudice from the positive portions of prejudice, and the root of this word in your language is the Latin judicare, meaning to judge, but there is a prefix that is “pre-fixed,” that which goes before the judgment, for the word means “to prejudge,” to judge before you know the facts, to go into relationship with a stranger whom you have not previously known, and whose heart and essence you cannot begin to touch with a pre-formed opinion which takes on some of the negative qualities of your will, yet the negative portion of prejudice is that those who make judgments before they know the heart of any subject are robbing themselves of a greater variety of biases which might develop were one to attempt to walk in the other person’s shoes and to be in the situation in which this entity exists. On March 12, 1995, Q’uo described the basic nature of prejudice:

As the person grows and has more and more experience the person acquires more and more baggage in the shape of what this instrument would call prejudices, what we would call biases. Manifestly, this is not an instinctive process, for there is no instinct towards cannibalism within your physical vehicles. There is no natural enemy in that sense amongst your people. The impulse to determine the degree of safety with which one may greet another has in most entities, by the time they reach their teenage years, as this instrument would say, the basic prejudices, biases, and wayward opinions that form the basic floor of the prejudicial system within an entity are formed, not, shall we say, set in concrete but nailed together fairly well and ready to be used as a base upon which to build an ever more articulated system of biases and judgment.

So, there is no bodily instinct for separating from other selves. However, there is a characteristic tendency which may be seen to be close to an instinct in third density entities to develop shortcuts that aid in making quick judgments about the safety and security of any present moment. There is that instinct gone wild. The instinct, itself, is to determine for each self, “Who am I?” Yet in the process of determining the key nature of the self, the tendency is to identify the self over against others who are different.

The first prejudice is that prejudice of the very young entity who, for the first time, realizes that it is not a part of the mother or the father. Entities at this young age discover the word “no,” and that impulse to negation is the crux of a process which has given your world one destructive and annihilating conflict after another. The initial impulse has no vice within it. That impulse to know the self, to define the boundaries of the self, and to become more self-aware is allowed to lower itself again and again by making judgments about others which make the self feel safer, more secure, or more comfortable. The basic point of conflict lies within the self as each self goes through repeated generations of “I am not this but that, not that but this,” again and again.

Since this is a limiting factor, and not a freeing factor, since prejudice imprisons the mind of the one who is prejudiced, it is a metaphysically unsound and counterproductive facet of one’s character, and it is not suggested that it be encouraged. We would like to point out, however, that although in no ultimate terms can you judge or discriminate within the illusion in matters having to do with ultimate reality, nevertheless, it is clear that one who lives in an illusion such as yours will find their power of discrimination to be most helpful, for there are those who speak well, and whose intentions are other than they speak. There are those who speak ill or who do not speak at all, and whose intentions are pure and good. This has little or nothing to do with any prejudicial component such as race, creed, color, sex, or age.

There is a further point which may be very helpful to those who wish to work with prejudice within themselves in order to become free of prejudice and become free to discriminate more freely and that is this. Prejudice is, to some extent, an instinct based upon the ultimate origin of the various races of your planetary sphere. Because more than one planetary sphere produced third-density candidates which have experienced third density upon this sphere, those of different planetary influences have fundamentally various archetypical minds, that is, part of their archetypical minds, that part connected with the racial consciousness, is in some cases subtly, in other cases widely different from race to race. The instinctive bias is that of the recognition of a difference. This is the fundamental instinctual and root reason for prejudice or prejudgment. It is not, however, valid in the sense that mind/body/spirit complexes are each the Creator, regardless of their planetary origins. Each, furthermore, has put in the span of third density’s space/time attempting to learn the same lessons of Love which each has attempted to learn. Therefore, the racial component becomes less and less as the entity becomes more and more consciously a child of the one infinite Creator.

L/Leema went on to say since this is a limiting factor, and since prejudice imprisons the mind of the one who is prejudiced, it is a metaphysically unsound facet of one’s character, and it is not suggested that it be encouraged, so we would like to point out that although in no ultimate terms can you judge within the illusion in matters having to do with ultimate reality, yet it is clear that one who lives in an illusion such as yours will find their power of discrimination to be helpful, for there are those who speak well and whose intentions are other than they speak, and there are those who speak ill, or who do not speak at all, and whose intentions are pure and good, but this has little to do with any prejudicial component such as race, creed, color, sex, or age. L/Leema continued by saying there is a point which may be helpful to those who wish to work with prejudice within themselves in order to become free of prejudice and become free to discriminate more freely, and that is that prejudice is an instinct based upon the origin of the various races of your planetary sphere because more than one planetary sphere produced third-density candidates which have experienced third density upon this sphere, and those of different planetary influences have various archetypical minds where part of their archetypical minds, connected with the racial consciousness, is in some cases subtly, in other cases widely, different from race to race, for the instinctive bias is that of the recognition of a difference, so this is the basic reason for prejudice, but it is not valid in the sense that mind/body/spirit complexes are each the Creator, regardless of their planetary origins since each has put in the span of third density’s space/time attempting to learn the same lessons of Love which each has attempted to learn, so the racial component becomes less as the entity becomes more consciously a child of the one infinite Creator. On June 6, 1992, Latwii described the third-density lessons of Love:

The lessons of your density are the lessons of Love. When enough of your people learn to Love one another, then the entire creation sings and resounds with that harmony, and each atom rejoices and seeks to join more fully with each part of creation. Therefore, by whatever means is available to the entity; each entity might therefore send the Love and Light to the one creation in which your planet resides, to your planet itself, to each entity upon its surface, indeed into the self, and thereby assure the unification of all that is.

To be prejudiced against any spirit which walks among you is possibly to be discriminating against one whom you would call a saint or angel if you but knew the heart of that person. We ask you, therefore, to forgive yourself for the inevitable prejudices that are involved in racial discrimination. We ask you further to clear your mind by progressive attempts during meditation of the prejudgment aspect having to do with discrimination. It is not appropriate when one is dealing with an infinite and eternal being that one should prejudge such a marvelous and miraculous piece and necessary portion of the one infinite Creator.

We would say one more thing about prejudice before we leave this instrument in order that we might answer a query. There are other prejudices or biases which have the same sort of limiting effect upon the self as racial prejudice. By this, we mean prejudice against certain types of music, certain types of written words, certain types of food, certain degrees of intelligence, certain accents, and so forth. These are the small change of prejudice. The damage done by this sort of prejudice is not as great as the damage done by racial prejudice due to the fact that you are only hurting yourself and not other people. Since one seldom says to another human, “I cannot speak with you because you are too stupid,” nor can music become insulted because one person will not listen to it, you are therefore limiting and damaging only yourself for the most part. However, it is well to think well enough of oneself to wish not to damage the self by these prejudices, but rather, again to listen once, taste once, see once, hear once, or feel once any new experience before one judges or discriminates. Prejudice, my friends, is that which limits; it is, therefore, that which kills, for freedom is that which causes Light. Without condemning yourself or any prejudice, therefore, we ask you again to consider well the possible virtue of meditating upon any prejudice which you may entertain in order that the prejudgment may give way to true and valid discrimination.

L/Leema continued by saying to be prejudiced against any spirit which walks among you is to be discriminating against one whom you would call a saint or angel if you but knew the heart of that person, and we ask you to forgive yourself for the prejudices that are involved in racial discrimination, so we ask you to clear your mind by progressive attempts during meditation of the prejudgment aspect having to do with discrimination, for it is not appropriate when dealing with an infinite being that one should prejudge such a miraculous portion of the one infinite Creator. Now L/Leema said there are other prejudices which have the same limiting effect upon the self as racial prejudice, and by this we mean prejudice against certain types of music, certain degrees of intelligence, and certain accents, for these are the small change of prejudice, so the damage done by this sort of prejudice is not as great as the damage done by racial prejudice due to the fact that you are only hurting yourself and no other people since one seldom says to another human, “I cannot speak with you because you are too stupid,” nor can music become insulted because one person will not listen to it, so you are limiting yourself, but it is well to think enough of oneself to wish not to damage the self by these prejudices, but to listen once, taste once, see once, hear once, or feel once any new experience before one judges, yet prejudice is that which limits and kills, for freedom is that which causes Light, but without condemning yourself, we ask you to consider the possible virtue of meditating upon any prejudice which you may entertain in order that the prejudgment may give way to true discrimination, and latwii said that we suggest that your discrimination has provided you with the path which has borne fruit, and we suggest the continued following of your own inclinations in this matter, remaining open to any source which appears to be of value. On June 19, 2005, Q’uo described the value of using our discrimination: 

We cannot say to you whether this storytelling is a good idea. It is entirely a product of your own discernment and judgment. We can say to you that in choosing to tell a story you join a very long line of wise, magical people who have decided to access the realm of the archetypal by parable rather than by discussion. We encourage you to be fearless as you proceed to use your discrimination and your heart in the unfolding of this purpose that you have chosen. We encourage you to trust yourself and to have faith, absolute and unwavering faith, in yourself.

We would leave this instrument at this time, being conscious of our tendency to give too long an answer when a short one has more pith and may be easier to digest. We are those of L/Leema and would now transfer, leaving you in Love and Light.

(Jim channeling)

I am L/Leema, and we are pleased to greet you through this instrument. We are happy that it has been able to discriminate our signal and to speak our thoughts. At this time, we would offer ourselves in any further attempts to answer queries which those present may have value in the asking. May we be of such service, my friends?

Carla: I would like to ask for some help. I can’t remember whether it was N or J that asked a question earlier—I guess it was N—about channeling the other Ra to find out what connection it might have with our Ra. It’s not a valid metaphysical practice, but I was at a loss as to how to approach explaining that, even though I’ve come to know it through years of meditating. I wonder if you could be short and clear and pithy where I was totally lost?

I am L/Leema, and we shall attempt this, my sister. Without judging the efforts of any to serve the one Creator and those about it, we may suggest that some attempts at vocal channeling are not what they appear at first to be. It may be that an entity who has a gift of being able to speak the thoughts of another is made aware of information which it feels is valuable. This information may also be of the channeled variety. This entity, in some degree, may feel that its service would be enhanced were it able to offer the channeling of the information which it has come across and feels to be valuable. The desire to serve is at the heart of this effort. Yet, if it is not that entity’s gift to channel this or that particular entity, it may be that within its own subconscious mind the process then takes life and information seeming to come from the entity which it values is then produced. This, though not seeming to be as it is, that is, a product of one’s subconscious mind, may, however, be of great value to that entity and perhaps others as well. Yet, for you, my sister, to attempt to channel that which was subconsciously fabricated would not be a service to this group anymore than another vocal channel’s attempt to channel those of the Ra would be to others about it.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No. It’s basically N’s question. N, [inaudible]?

N: No. I think I understood L/Leema’s reply that it was a fabricated thought form from the individual’s subconscious. Is that correct?

Carla: Yeah, that’s what they said.

I am L/Leema. Is there a further response that we might give to either entity?

Carla: I’m satisfied.

N: Well, then who is it that’s coming from the subconscious that’s not Ra?

I am L/Leema and am aware of your query, my brother. As you know from your own experience, in attempting to become what has been called the vocal channel or instrument, there is a great leeway or possibility of doubt for one serving as an instrument in that it is not provable to any entity that one is actually channeling another entity when the vocal channeling is attempted. This is in order that one’s free will shall always remain intact and that no seemingly superior entities will be unquestionably listened to, shall we say. The channel of whom you speak is one desiring to serve, and we do not wish in any way to denigrate that service. Yet it is a common error, shall we say, that entities with a great desire to serve others as vocal channels will, when made aware of information of a channeled variety which they value, then attempt to reproduce this in their own experience and, thereby, be of further service. But it is usually the case that instruments have abilities that match or vibrations of seeking that match those discarnate entities who then transmit information through them. When an instrument seeks to choose who it shall channel, then the surrender of the will which is necessary in this channeling process is not completely given. In such an instance there are two possibilities which explain the source of the entity then channeled.

Firstly, there are those of the negative polarization who are happy to mimic positive contacts and slowly lead astray those listening to their words, for the mimicking is continued only so long as is necessary to maintain the contact. Inevitably, there is information given which tends to detune the instrument and the group that may have gathered about it to support it in its service. In such a manner then, negative entities are able to remove the positive light of groups who become so detuned. The second possible source of such information is more benign, and that is the subconscious fabrication which the instrument may undertake on a somewhat conscious, yet very likely more unconscious level of determination. In such an instance the information given remains within the realm of knowledge of the instrument who serves as channel.

N asked: “Well, then who is it that’s coming from the subconscious that’s not Ra?” L/Leema replied as you know from your own experience in attempting to become an instrument, there is a possibility of doubt for one serving as an instrument in that it is not provable to any entity that one is actually channeling another entity when the vocal channeling is attempted, and this is in order that one’s free will shall always remain intact, and that no seemingly superior entities will be listened to, for the channel you speak of is one desiring to serve, and we do not wish to denigrate that service, yet it is a common error that entities with desire to serve others as vocal channels will, when made aware of information of a channeled variety which they value, attempt to reproduce this in their own experience and be of further service, but it is usually the case that instruments have vibrations of seeking that match those discarnate entities who transmit information through them, for when an instrument seeks to choose who it shall channel, then the surrender of the will which is necessary in this channeling process is not completely given, yet in such an instance there are two possibilities which explain the source of the entity then channeled. Now L/Leema said first, there are those of the negative polarization who are happy to mimic positive contacts and slowly lead astray those listening to their words, for the mimicking is continued only so long as is necessary to maintain the contact, but there is information given which tends to detune the instrument, and the group that may have gathered about it to support it in its service, for in such a manner negative entities are able to remove the positive Light of groups who become detuned, and the second possible source of such information is more benign, and that is the subconscious fabrication which the instrument may undertake on a somewhat conscious, yet very likely more unconscious level of determination, but in such an instance the information given remains within the realm of knowledge of the instrument who serves as channel. On November 19, 1998, Q’uo described the difficulties of the vibrations of seeking:

Those who now move into incarnation within this planetary sphere’s third-density illusion are aware that this is the time of graduation, that this particular planet is having somewhat of a difficult birthing for the fourth-density population that is to inhabit this planetary sphere. The difficulties of blending vibrations, of seeking in unity, and of recognizing the Creator in all are significant enough that there are, as you are well aware, many wars, misunderstandings, miscommunications and other difficulties that make this illusion one filled with confusion, and that which seems to be a turmoil of significant degree. This is seen as a kind of chaotic expression of energy by those awaiting incarnation. Yet it is not seen as that which deters the desire to move into the third-density illusion in this planetary influence and to experience the opportunities that await those who seek their own graduation and the graduation of those of their vibration. Rather, the difficulties that are perceived are seen as further opportunities for service as those challenges which enhance the incarnational abilities to learn the lessons of Love and to serve the Light of the one Creator.

I am L/Leema: May we answer further, my brother?

N: If a question is not educated, the channels on that level, when you mentioned knowledge, are limited?

I am L/Leema. We believe we grasp your query. Please question further if we are mistaken. We spoke in the second instance of the possibility of information being subconsciously fabricated by an instrument whose desire is to serve others by channeling information from an entity belonging to another group. When this occurs, that is, the subconscious fabrication of information, this information then will remain within the realm of whatever level of metaphysical understanding the channel has achieved.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: Okay. I’m new at this game, so who will I channel?

I am L/Leema, and this query is upon another topic, for within this group there are a number of entities who have become regulars, shall we say, to this group. As you or any new instrument would then undertake to serve as a channel for this group’s contacts, you then would be available for the channeling of whatever entity was at that time working with this group. The newer instruments in this group are usually introduced to the vocal channeling phenomenon by those of Laitos and Hatonn, for they are of the Love vibration which is much broader in its broadcast beam than are those of Latwii, those of Oxal, or our own social memory complex. For we inhabit the density of Light and must therefore transmit a narrower and more difficult beam to receive.

If you are desirous of pursuing the path of the vocal channel within this group, and if you give over your will that a contact can be made through your instrument, you will channel whatever entity is working this group at the time you are channeling. It is not likely that you will choose what entity you desire to channel because you admire or appreciate one entity’s information over another’s. The vocal channel desires to serve in whatever capacity is available to it; when it has tuned this desire and has challenged any contact, then it may speak freely, without fear of fabrication of any kind.

May we answer further, my brother?

J: No. But I’m glad you told me that I won’t channel some weirdo out there—and that’s not a question. Thank you.

I am L/Leema. Is there another query that we might attempt?

N: Yes, as an addendum to J’s question, the Yadda that Carla channels, is that Yadda, the same as Mark Prover’s? Yadda, and do all, shall we say, does Yadda transmit to other channels at this time, and does L/Leema and Latwii also transmit to other channels? At the same time?

I am L/Leema, and am aware of your query, my brother. The ones known as Yadda to this group are the ones which you have become familiar with in your studies and in your listening to the tapes which contain this entity’s words as they were transcribed and delivered through the one known as Mark. It is occasionally the case that a group of entities such as Yadda or even ourselves, or any within the Confederation, will be able to make contact and maintain contact with a number of groups such as this one. The number is not important. The groups so contacted are contacted because their call or desire to serve and to learn matches a certain group’s vibratory identification, shall we say.

It is seldom the case that such contacts are able to be maintained by those of the Confederation over a very long period of time as you measure time, for each group and each instrument will undergo the testing and the temptations by those of a negative orientation who desire to remove the Light that is metaphysically created by such a contact between the Confederation and any group of your planet. This is a balancing phenomenon that must accompany any such contact, for where there is the opportunity for Light to radiate to those of your planet, there must also be the opportunity for the darkness to have its sway as well. In this way, the free will of each instrument is maintained and enhanced as the continuous choice is made to tune and challenge all such contacts and further serve the one Creator by purifying the desire of the self and the group. Thus, it is often the case that groups or instruments will be unaware of the necessity of tuning and challenging, and will then receive a temptation from the negative entity or entities to focus on information that is of a more transient nature, such as the date and nature of various disasters and information of a specific nature regarding inventions, discoveries, means of making great wealth available that the group might be glorified above the message that it has previously been privileged to offer to others. Thus, contact is often lost and continuous channeling of one entity by a number of groups is therefore not a frequent phenomenon.

N asked: “Yes, as an addendum to J’s question, the Yadda that Carla channels, is that Yadda, the same as Mark Prover’s? Yadda, and do all, shall we say, does Yadda transmit to other channels at this time, and does L/Leema and Latwii also transmit to other channels? At the same time?” L/Leema said  the ones known as Yadda to this group are the ones which you have become familiar with in your listening to the tapes which contain this entity’s words as they were transcribed and delivered through Mark, so it is occasionally the case that a group of entities such as Yadda, or any within the Confederation, will be able to maintain contact with a number of groups such as this one, but the number is not important, for the groups are contacted because their desire to serve and to learn matches a certain group’s vibratory identification. Now L/Leema said it is seldom that contacts are able to be maintained by those of the Confederation over a long period of time, for each group and each instrument will undergo the testing and the temptations by those of a negative orientation who desire to remove the Light that is metaphysically created by such a contact between the Confederation and any group of your planet, for this is a balancing phenomenon that must accompany any contact, yet where there is the opportunity for Light to radiate to those of your planet, there must also be the opportunity for the darkness to have its way as well, so in this way the free will of each instrument is enhanced as the continuous choice is made to tune and challenge all contacts and further serve the one Creator by purifying the desire of the self and the group since it is often the case that instruments will be unaware of the necessity of tuning and challenging, and will receive a temptation from the negative entities to focus on information that is of a more transient nature, such as the date and nature of disasters and information of a specific nature regarding inventions, discoveries, means of making great wealth available that the group might be glorified above the message that it has previously offered to others, and the contact is often lost, and continuous channeling of one entity by a number of groups is not a frequent phenomenon. On September 30, 1984, Latwii spoke of the necessity of tuning and challenging for a channel:

We might suggest for this particular type of service as a vocal channel that you determine a means of the tuning and challenging of an energy or entity which you sense in any manner, and that you utilize this means of tuning and challenging so that you might express to the channel only those energies and entities that are of a positive and beneficial nature to those about you and to your own being as well. This type of tuning and challenging is also useful in the daily life, shall we say, where one has a time set aside, preferably before the day begins, to set the course, shall we say, that the entity shall attempt to follow for the day. A course that is built upon service and seeking and is illuminated by the Light and Love of the One dwelling in One. This means a ritualizing of the tuning may enhance your ability to use your increasing sensitivites in ways which shall assure a balance for the mind and the body and the spirit.

May we answer you further, my brother?

N: Thank you very much. I have a problem that’s been bothering me, not for great wealth or truth or anything else, other than the fact that it’s for my own particular awareness, and I’d ask Latwii about it…

[Side one of tape ends.]

…but there was a question asked of Latwii about an intergalactic battle that occurred over in Africa, and I’m not really interested in the date, other than the fact than just some sort of confirmation that the two hundred people saw it, that it did occur. And if it did occur, why would the Confederation allow this sort of scene to occur to sort of put a, shall we say, negative light on the UFOs, or was it a negative implant? You see, it didn’t occur in our regular newspapers. And, the reason that it was allowed to occur was the germane point.

I am L/Leema, and we feel we have a grasp of your query, my brother. As we investigate this issue, we see there has been a great deal of misunderstanding generated by those who were witness to this event, and this misunderstanding was further amplified by those who chose to report it in the manner in which it was finally received and read by those of this group. The occurrence itself must remain somewhat within the realms of mystery, for it was a display that was meant to have a limited impact, shall we say.

Those witness to this display interpreted it in a manner which matched their expectations, or—to return to our topic for the evening—in a manner which matched their prejudicial points of view, for when craft of a seeming extraterrestrial origin are observed within the skies, and there are a number of such craft maneuvering in a manner which is quite eccentric, it is easy to assume that there is a battle being fought. It is as the child observing an incident which is beyond its scope and of necessity needing to describe this incident in terms which it understands, yet in such a description great distortions enter in. We may suggest that this is the case with the incident of which you speak. Therefore, the ones reporting this incident, shall we say, jumped upon the bandwagon and were only too happy to amplify the description, and we are somewhat surprised that there was not a body count given.

May we answer further, my brother?

N: Thank you very much. I did feel that there should not have been an intergalactic battle, so to speak, between the three ships that they mentioned, and that was my premise for repeating the question that wasn’t answered earlier. But thank you very much.

I am L/Leema, and am honored to be able to serve in even a small capacity. Is there another query?

C: Yes. Earlier I was picking up your conditioning, and after a period of time of experiencing it, I was starting to drift off, and after it occurred, one of our second-density creatures came over and more or less grounded me down. How was this creature able, if it was the case, that it felt that I needed it to come over and help keep me in place?

I am L/Leema, and we apologize, my brother, for giving our conditioning vibration in such a large dose, for we are yet new to contact with those of your people and tend to step up our voltage somewhat overmuch with initial contacts. This was the case this evening and we were happy to find a small creature who could easily be influenced to infringe upon your aura and thus call you back to, shall we say, the land of the conscious.

May we answer further, my brother?

C: Whenever I get a conditioning, and I know it’s warm tonight, but the experience was done, it was, well, say heavy-handedly, the energy is felt as heat. Is that the case always? Is it always experienced as heat when it’s, say, overdone?

I am L/Leema, and this is usually the case, my brother, for the one such as yourself who chooses to serve as the vocal instrument does so in manner much like a wire which carries one of your electrical impulses. When the impulse is of too great a voltage for the capacity of the wire to conduct, there is usually the overheating. This is quite literally the case with you this evening and is usually to be associated with any instrument who has been given too great a dose of the conditioning vibration.

May we answer further, my brother?

C: Well, the conditioning initially was to me an extremely pleasant sort of state. I guess I got too much into the experience of feeling it as opposed to really—I guess I was—analyzing’s the main thrust. But yet I want to again get back into being a vocal channel. I’m very interested in doing—in actually channeling yourself, but there is a hesitancy because I do tend to go further into a trance than need be for channeling. What do I need to do to keep this from occurring?

I am L/Leema. With practice, this tendency towards trance may be alleviated by the suggestion to yourself with each experience that you shall remain conscious and able to cease the process at any point. We shall, as always, be most happy to work with you, and to offer our conditioning in doses which are determined to be of the proper quantity. We will attempt, if this is your desire, to offer that conditioning which is well short of any amount that would aid in trance and then work our way toward the optimum level of conditioning that would facilitate the clearest possible transmission of our thoughts through your instrument.

May we answer further, my brother?

C: No, thank you for working with me tonight.

I am L/Leema, and we are honored to do so, my brother. And we thank you for your open-hearted sharing of your own self with us. Is there another query?

[Pause]

I am L/Leema. We thank you, my friends, for inviting our presence this evening. We are honored to share our words with you. We are honored to take those thoughts which have some value in your seeking and to fashion them as best we can into those concepts known as words. Yet we realize how far short any word falls in its ability to describe that which is beyond description. We hope that each of you will look and listen with not only the mind but the heart and your very soul as well and see beyond the word to the great field of Love which lies behind all manifestation. It is this Love that we attempt to share, the great variety of ways that equals the many words we speak through these instruments.

Please look at the words as messengers. They cannot contain that which sends them forth and which gives them life; yet they can point a direction. The direction is toward the heart of Love within each of you and within all creation. Look there within your own being and about you as you move through your daily lives for the inspirations that will carry you onward. We move with you in this great journey of seeking the truth and the one Creator that is all truth. We leave you now and look forward to joining again in such a gathering. We are L/Leema. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

(Carla channeling)

I Yadda. I greet you in Love and Light of infinite Creator. We thank the entity known as J for asking for our presence, and we thank each for the patience at the end of long session to allow us come among you at this time. We identify ourselves to you formally. We are Yadda Di-shi-hi-ty. We been trying to lose the last of that name, but it keep catching up with us. Aheh heh! So, we go ahead and use the whole thing. Now, we got to say a few good words or we don’t have any reason to be here. So, we going to give you a few cosmic words here—and practice our “R’s” too.

Now, we want to talk to you about food and anything else that you love. This instrument loves food; other people love money; other people love power, but we always ask you the same question: Who are you? Love.

Let’s look at food. There is a banquet before you, and you eat and eat, and you are just so happy because your stomach is so full, and you have eaten until you can eat no more, but you know you gonna get hungry again. Now those who want money usually get money because that’s what they want. But you know what? They never get enough. The more money, the more they want money more. It is the same with power; it is the same with those things that you love that are part of the mundane world.

What are you going to do to get yourself a meal that sticks with you or money that does not spend? We suggest that there is food which shall cause you to hunger no more, that there are riches so great that the wise man sells all that he has to get the riches of wisdom. There are those who love power but finally discover power that does not corrupt or go away within themselves. That is the power to surrender to the inner self. You got a whole kingdom there that will give you food, and money, and power. It will not stand on this Earth, as you call it; however, you are not here for very long at a time, are you? And you need to store up that which will not become corrupt, nor will it go away. Therefore, we ask you to look within in the meditation for that sustenance that does not fail you.

We would say in closing that we begin to understand this instrument’s love of the one she calls Jesus because He fed all the people with bread and fish. But you know, the one known as Buddha would say, “Go hungry if you want to; it does not matter—you can eat in your next lifetime.” This instrument likes food too much to like that kind of thinking. Aha?!

So. We shall leave you in joy that we are able to share with you. How fortunate we are, and we thank you for asking as to our origin. It is good to know to whom you are speaking. We are one of the good guys, as far as we know. We ask that if anything which we may have said is not that which would have been said by good guys, you ignore us completely and get on with your life. On that note, we shall leave you in the utmost wimitwess—we gonna have to do that again—limitless Love and Light of the one infinite Creator. We are those of Yadda. Adonai. Adonai.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “The question may arise in your mind, “How can I stop thinking about and believing in good and evil?” Let me give you an example which may help to clarify this point. Look at your hand, and ask yourself, “is it a good hand, or is it a bad hand?” And if you carry out into practice what you have learned thus far, you will have to admit that your hand is neither good nor bad: it is just a hand, a piece of flesh and a bundle of bones. It has no power to act in or of itself: it cannot pet, and it cannot punch; it cannot give, and it cannot withhold. But you can move it; you can use it as an instrument for giving or withholding. You can do such things, but the hand cannot.

The hand is but an instrument for your use. It can be used for various purposes: it can give generously and benevolently or steal unashamedly, but this hand cannot of itself do anything. There has to be something to move the hand. Since you govern your hand, you can empower it to do good or evil, and not only can you empower the hand but also the body, sometimes to do good and sometimes to do evil.

However, when you have transcended mind and thought, it is then that both mind and body are governed and controlled by the I that is God, and this produces a mind, body, and daily experience which are neither good nor evil but spiritual. The secret again is in the attainment of the unconditioned mind through which the Soul functions as life and experience.

The very moment you are willing to admit that this hand can of it own self do nothing, it is governed by the I, and from then on it becomes an instrument of God carrying with it only the power to bless because you and I, of our own human selves, are no longer governing this hand: now I am, and I is God.

Turn now from consideration of your hand, and take your whole body into your mind and realize this same truth: you do not have a good or a bad body, a young or an old body. Your body is merely so much flesh and bones. In and of itself, it has no intelligence; it knows nothing about either disease or health; it knows nothing about time, nothing about calendars. Unfortunately, the human “I” does, and because of that, the body changes. The body knows nothing about seasons of the year, whether it is winter or summer, good weather or bad, but again, unfortunately, we do, and because of that the body reflects whatever we accept in our mind.

It is the mind which becomes the avenue through which the body takes on the beliefs of the world. It is the mind, then which determines whether the body is good or bad, young or old, well or sick, but when there is neither a good body nor a bad one, a young one nor an old one, from that moment on, I, which is the presence and power of God, takes over and begins to manifest Its conditions on the body.”

Later this morning I vacuumed the first floor of my home, and then I went outside and used the rental lawn mower to cut the grass in my yard for the first time this year.

This afternoon I used Whip Lash to trim the areas of grass that the rental lawn mower could not get to. Then I used Huff and Puff to blow all walkways and the porch clean.

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

April 24

To Your Heart’s Health

I am of the consciousness of Jesus the Christ. I greet you in the midst of paradise, where Love abounds and Light never fails. So, it is within your heart. Love abounds and Light never fails.

All souls have what you may call a dark side. There are things that lay heavy upon the soul. There are thoughts of past and thoughts of future. And in this heaviness, in this past and this future, the joyful present is lost within your heart and your soul.

Look at the good that comes to you today. Be quiet and sure and aware ahead of time that good shall come to you. Expect it. And if that which you get is unexpectedly difficult, search out the Love that you are to learn and express for Jesus the Christ.

Let this be for you a day of rejoicing; a day of moving into the love of the Creator; a day lost in praise of Jesus the Christ.

There are those of you who do not wish to reckon with Jesus the Christ. We of the Spirit of the full consciousness of love suggest only that you need not reckon with the entity Jesus, but to your heart’s health and your soul’s life, you must reckon with Christhood. Gaze at the story of the man and grasp the meaning and the implications of living the full consciousness of Love.

When you have done so, do not despair but rejoice, for we are with you always.

Our peace and love be with you now and evermore. 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 L/Leema, Latwii, and Yadda channelings for this session come from August 4, 1985:

(Carla channeling)

I am L/Leema, and greet you in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are most gratified this evening to be requested to join in meditation, and we are grateful for the work that one known as L1 has done. We feel that we are making progress in this conditioning and will continue when there is an opportunity such as this one by using this instrument to work with this channel and any other channel who may wish to experience the contact in the future, as you would say. We greet each of you and bless each of you and find great beauty in each of you and, again, we thank you that you allow us to share our limited suppositions and opinions with you.

The question before us is the point which occurs well into the spiritual journey. Therefore, we wish to state the question and then attempt to put it in context. It is our understanding that the query involves the balancing technique described by those known to you as Ra which involves accentuating of the distortion as the opening move towards the balance in the personality of that distortion. To put this in context, we must look at your situation. You are shipwrecked on an island that spins in space. You cannot escape from this island during your incarnational experience, and you are separated from other consciousness of the same or higher density by limitless Light or space. You share this with each of those who are your companions upon your island home, the vast majority of which are not at all interested in balancing their distortions in the fullest sense, but rather are usually interested in accentuating pleasant distortions and eliminating or numbing uninteresting sensations and emotions.

Therefore, it must be assumed that this technique is of no use to most of those upon your planet. This does not mean that they who have no access to this technique will not learn, for the incarnational experience is very efficient and enough catalyst is given to each that the basic plan of the higher self is at least presented, if not realized. However, those within this domicile at this time have made a decision, the dimensions of which are immense. That decision is to seek the truth. Although there is no distance to this journey of seeking, the effort and the time which you spend in seeking actively and passively, that is, through action and through meditation is an accelerating force which causes your mental/emotional complex to experience in a more rapid and intense manner not only events, but the emotional overtones and undertones of the event.

In this session L/Leema spoke about using the balancing exercises as part of the spiritual journey. Then began by saying the question before us is the point which occurs well into the spiritual journey, so we wish to state the question and then attempt to put it in context, for it is our understanding that the query involves the balancing technique described by those of Ra which involves accentuating of the distortion as the opening move towards the balance in the personality of that distortion, so to put this in context, we must look at your situation, for you are shipwrecked on an island that spins in space, but you cannot escape from this island during your incarnational experience, and you are separated from other consciousness of the same or higher density by limitless Light or space, yet you share this with each of those who are your companions upon your island home, the vast majority of which are not at all interested in balancing their distortions in the fullest sense, but rather are interested in accentuating pleasant distortions and eliminating emotions. Now L/Leema said it must be assumed that this technique is of no use to most of those upon your planet, but this does not mean that they who have no access to this technique will not learn, for the incarnational experience is efficient, and enough catalyst is given to each that the basic plan of the higher self is presented, if not realized, but those within this domicile have made a decision, the dimensions of which are immense, and that decision is to seek the truth, yet there is no distance to this journey of seeking, so the time which you spend in seeking actively and passively through action and meditation is an accelerating force which causes your mental/emotional complex to experience in a more intense manner not only events, but the emotional overtones and undertones of the event. On December 26, 1984, Latwii describe the nature of seeking the truth:

So, my brother, you need not worry about the expense or the time required to seek the truth. If you have the desire to seek the truth, you may do so each moment of your existence as you see yourself in each entity that you meet, as you see yourself as the Creator in each situation in which you find yourself. There is no end to the opportunities for seeking the truth, the Creator, and your self, for all are one thing. You live in that one thing as that one thing.

Let us look at an analog that is very simple, an analog to a concept which does not seem simple, but complex. The analog is this: When a young boy or girl rides their bike, if they take it very slowly, they will not have to lean as they go around a corner and it is unlikely that any harm will come to them through miscalculation. This is the case of most upon your planet who have not chosen to accelerate their seeking. Now if this same boy or girl chooses to speed up their journey, they will run into several different problems, all related to their rate of speed. A bicycle going above a certain velocity cannot change its course without first leaning, not in the direction it wishes to go, but in the opposite direction; when one has achieved a certain velocity, one may not see a traffic problem, a bump in the road, and so forth, and one may fall off one’s bike and hurt oneself.

Now let us turn that simple analogy and look at what seems to be a complex question. When the seeker discovers catalyst affecting them, regardless of the conscious spiritual attitude of the seeker, the lower or deeper portions of the mind will cause certain reactions to bubble up as they had been programmed to do by this incarnational pattern of childhood or because of racial memory, planetary memory, or cosmic memory. You will react to catalyst, my friends. The concept of indifference is not one we recommend as one which is helpful when one is faced with catalyst. Rather, we suggest a great deal of interest be given to what is occurring. Is the catalyst due to the attempt to go around the corner? Is the catalyst due, in other words, to a change, a transformation that one is attempting to achieve? Is the catalyst such that some change or transformation might be suggested? If this is the case, and it often is when catalyst is involved, the leaning as you go around the corner is the accentuation in a brief manner preparatory to making the change towards that which you do not want within yourself or within your mind. For you must have a good grasp of what it is you are leaving as well as what it is you are seeking before you can plainly and efficiently make the transformation. It has been noted that the accentuation can get out of hand—a body can become sick; a mind can become diseased; an anger can become magnified; and all these things seem to blow up, to explode in such a way as to destroy the possibility of transformation.

Now L/Leema said let us look at an analog that is simple, an analog to a concept which does not seem simple, but complex, and the analog is this: When a young boy or girl rides their bike, if they take it slowly, they will have to lean as they go around a corner, and it is unlikely that any harm will come to them through miscalculation, and this is the case of most upon your planet who have not chosen to accelerate their seeking, but if this same boy or girl chooses to speed up their journey, they will run into several different problems, all related to their rate of speed, for a bicycle going above a certain velocity cannot change its course without first leaning in the direction it wishes to go, so when one has achieved a certain velocity, one may not see a bump in the road, and one may fall off one’s bike and hurt oneself. L/Leema continued by saying now let us turn that simple analogy and look at what seems to be a complex question, for when the seeker discovers catalyst affecting them, regardless of the conscious spiritual attitude of the seeker, the deeper portions of the mind will cause certain reactions to bubble up as they had been programmed to do by this incarnational pattern of childhood or because of racial memory, planetary memory, or cosmic memory, for you will react to catalyst, but the concept of indifference is not one we recommend as one which is helpful when one is faced with catalyst, so we suggest a great deal of interest be given to what is occurring: “Is the catalyst due to the attempt to go around the corner?

On November 20, 1994, Q’uo described the nature of transformation:

Once these dusty cobwebs of past negative emotion are swept from that subconscious place, then forgiveness may blossom and then the seeker discovers almost by reflex that the circumstances of the incarnation have been transformed. The first few epiphanies, or times of transformation within a seeker’s experience, are those which free portions of the self so that various energies are sequentially set free within the individual, clearing the channel on a higher and higher level.

Entities who work with healing the incarnation are those which have gone through those times of testing which may be seen to be partial and, therefore, have come to a place where the next time of transformation is that one which was the final transformation within the life or incarnation which has to do with oneself only, and at this time of final transformation, or initiation, the whole self, the whole life becomes soft and malleable, if the seeker is at that time perfectly willing to forgive all. Therefore, the way of faith being followed, in due time the healing of the incarnation becomes a gift given to the self by the subconscious levels of self, aided by what this instrument would call the Holy Spirit and what we often call the higher self.

Let us go back to the child on the bike. When someone falls off of a bike, that entity picks up the bike, checks themself and the bike for damage, patches up what is necessary and renegotiates the turn. When the seeker in attempting to process catalyst falls off of the firm intention to “do good,” shall we say, or to use a more accurate term, to follow a positive path, the seeker may well feel bruised, battered, injured, and without any proper vehicle for making that transformation previously so eagerly sought. However, there is no moment within or without of the incarnational framework of your ongoing consciousness within which there does not lie the possibility for transformation, the possibility for polarization, the possibility to see Love. We do not mean to be simplistic. We realize that there are deep concerns within this group having to do with life and death. We realize that two within this group have died, and we realize that in both cases, the entities were in the process of making rapid spiritual progress. My friends, these entities are still making rapid spiritual progress due to the effort which knocked them off of their bicycles, spiritually speaking. You must remember that this is an illusion. You are looking at a shadow world. You feel as though you are full and the sky is empty, but in truth you are very empty compared to the fullness of the living ethers.

L/Leema went on to say let us go back to the child on the bike, so when someone falls off of a bike, that entity picks up the bike, checks themself and the bike for damage, patches up what is necessary and renegotiates the turn, and when the seeker in attempting to process catalyst falls off of its intention to follow a positive path, the seeker may feel injured and without any vehicle for making that transformation previously so eagerly sought, but there is no moment within or without of the incarnational framework of your ongoing consciousness within which there does not lie the possibility for transformation, the possibility for polarization, the possibility to see Love, but we do not mean to be simplistic, for we realize that there are concerns within this group having to do with life and death, and we realize that two within this group have died, and we realize that in both cases, the entities were in the process of making rapid spiritual progress, yet these entities are still making rapid spiritual progress due to the effort which knocked them off of their bicycles, spiritually speaking, so you must remember that this is an illusion, and you are looking at a shadow world, for you feel as though you are full, and the sky is empty, but in truth you are empty compared to the fullness of the living ethers. On October 9, 2005, Q’uo described the nature of spiritual progress:

For the most part, one’s sense of one’s progress must be left to faith. In the world around you, much of spiritual progress is rather pushed upon one from behind, by the context of guilt, sin, and correction of that guilt and sin, by doing something perceived as virtuous or good. This has almost nothing to do with spiritual progress. In truth, we believe that progress is an organic process that uses everything that you are, weaving and reweaving context on the one hand, and every thought of substance that you think on the other hand, to create a shifting kaleidoscope of color, texture and form.

Therefore, as you meditate, trust that you do not need to be pushed from behind to make progress. The Creator is calling to you from the alpha and the omega of the circle of oneness. Spiritual gravity is building up within you, and you are called from beyond yourself ever forward with the inevitably of weather, taxes, and so forth.

You cannot help progressing. Your only question is whether or not you wish to progress faster than the surrounding ambience or environment out of which you come. Naturally, you wish to progress faster than humankind as a tribe is progressing, for the humankind that is your tribe upon planet Earth is having systemic difficulties that are deep and substantial. They need not concern you, yet you must and you do make a conscious decision to separate yourself from that ambience and to move into a far more individualized and creative personal environment.

You create for yourself a hotbed, a greenhouse, an enhanced growing environment by doing the meditation, the contemplation, the reading, and the daydreaming. You are continuing to create growth conditions for yourself.

We shall leave this group, hoping that we may have been of some help and rejoicing with all our hearts that you have asked such a question. For we always hope to offer inspiration, and we find that the concept of the infinite amount of hope which, as far as we know is the nature of spiritual reality, is a very inspiring message to offer you. We ask you to remember as you fall off, get back on, turn corners, accentuate the turning of the corner in order to make a more efficient turning, and so forth that you are the Love in this island home; you are the Light in this fragile Earth.

We thank you for your service; we thank you for allowing us to be of service. We are known to you as L/Leema. We leave you at an accentuated point at which it is darkest. And we wait with you for the dawning, rejoicing in the coming of the Light and rejoicing with you that your Love and your Light, that which comes through you from the source of Love and Light, can and will renew the Earth. We leave you in the Light. Adonai. Adonai.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and we greet you, my friends, in the Love and Light of our infinite Creator. We too thank you for inviting our presence this evening. We are overjoyed to be able to join your group, and we look forward to any queries which might be presented for our mutual benefit. May we ask for the first query?

T: Yes, I have a question. I’ve been, for the last month or so, looking for a particular person, and one day at work I was meditating, and I had actually spoken to Latwii, and I laid my head back to meditate for a while, and it seemed like two names that were actually younger brother and sister of the person I was trying to get ahold of, they just popped into my mind. I hadn’t thought of those two names for a long time, and so I went inside and looked them up, and there was one of them. I called and got the phone number for the lady I was trying to get ahold of. Did you, you-all, have anything to do with that? That’s my question.

I am Latwii, and we, my brother, are happy to say that we were merely witnesses to the coincidence of your seeking and finding that which you sought. The mind in its various portions and capacities contains a great deal more information than any here would easily believe, for, indeed, you are one with all that occurs. Within your personal memory there were names which were retrieved and presented for the aid that they might give in your seeking. We observed this phenomenon, and our only part was, shall we say, was to deepen your meditation as requested in order that this information might become more easily accessible.

May we answer further, my brother?

T: No, thank you.

I am Latwii, and we thank you. Is there another query?

Carla: Well, that brings up an interesting query, at least it’s interesting to me. My grandmother has a theory that we have little file clerks in our heads, and when we can’t think of something, we tell the clerk to go find it, and then we forget about it because it doesn’t do any good to worry about it. And in fifteen minutes or in two days or in two weeks, however long the file clerk takes, it will trot up to the front brain and tell it that it’s found the information. Does something like that actually happen when we make a request to our brain for information that we can’t immediately remember?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my sister. Those who utilize the power of mind in a conscious fashion may describe and create their “fashion,” and it shall be as effective as the image which was used to create it. Thus, if one imagines that there are clerks of one nature or another within the mind who may move to another portion of the mind and retrieve information needed from that portion and present it to the conscious mind in this fashion, then in this fashion will such a mind operate. There are many, many ways of utilizing the mind and its ability to recall that in which it was co-Creator.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: Yes. I don’t know computer language at all, but people have often spoken of the brain as a computer, and I see this request as kind of requesting the computer for data, and I guess what I should have said was that my question had to do with not whether there was a file clerk in there, but if there was a purposive searching that went on independent of the original intention to do the search, which was roughly equivalent to giving the computer a program that it would take an unknown amount of time to process but that it was going to process it.

I am Latwii and believe that we now have a better grasp of the nature of your query. Please query further if we are mistaken. There are a number of ways to describe the process of which you speak, that is, the seeking of information by the conscious mind and the process by which the information is found and perhaps where it is found. The charging of a desire is the most important portion of the finding of the object of the desire. The experience of the entity provides it a framework within which it might move and continue to move as the framework accumulates what you would call experience through time. All experience is recorded within the moment of its occurrence. Those partaking in the event will be the primary recorders, shall we say. They shall have the initial experience and shall be able to provide that experience to whatever mind seeks the experience for its own use. When the charge is put upon the desire to know a certain distortion of the truth, then this desire in a conscious fashion moves through the being or metaphysical portions of the entity so seeking. The charge matches that which is sought. Thus, if there are no resistances, shall we say, along the line of travel, the retrieval of the information is immediate, for the seeking is undertaken within one environment, that is, the fabric of your creation, the one Creator.

If there are, however, any forms, thought forms of interference or resistance along the line of travel—and this is usually the case in one degree or another—then the impulse must find its way through or around this resistance. There must be what you would call a gestation period during which the impulse is able to move through the resistance by a progress of what you might call osmosis or bleeding through. The resistances are usually a function of the program of catalyst, an emotional charge of one form or another which inhibits a free flow of information and necessitates a circuitous flow of information. Thus, the imperfect memory, because of small emotional charges given to portions of learning as they are initially processed, usually within the younger years of an entity. Thus, dreams and intuitional hunches are often utilized by the deeper portions of the mind as means of circumnavigating these blockages or resistances to the free flow of information.

Carla asked: “I don’t know computer language at all, but people have often spoken of the brain as a computer, and I see this request as kind of requesting the computer for data, and I guess what I should have said was that my question had to do with not whether there was a file clerk in there, but if there was a purposive searching that went on independent of the original intention to do the search, which was roughly equivalent to giving the computer a program that it would take an unknown amount of time to process but that it was going to process it.” Latwii began by saying there are a number of ways to describe the process of seeking information by the conscious mind, and the process by which the information is found and where it is found, for the setting of a desire is the most important portion of finding of the object of the desire, so the experience of the entity provides it a framework within which it might continue to move as the framework accumulates experience through time, for all experience is recorded within the moment of its occurrence, and those partaking in the event will be the primary recorders, so they shall have the initial experience and shall be able to provide that experience to whatever mind seeks the experience for its own use, yet when the charge is put upon the desire to know a certain distortion of the truth, then this desire, in a conscious fashion, moves through the metaphysical portions of the entity so seeking as the charge matches that which is sought, but if there are no resistances along the line of travel, the retrieval of the information is immediate, for the seeking is undertaken within the fabric of your creation, the one Creator.

On September 1, 2018, Q’uo described the nature of intuitional hunches:

Your mind is a powerful quality that you may utilize in examining the nature of all of the experiences or catalyst that you encounter in your daily round of activities. When you can look upon any experience, any trauma, or difficulty with a calm and accepting mind and heart, it is far more likely that you will be able to receive intuitional hunches or flashes of inspiration that come from your subconscious mind that utilize its contact with your pre-incarnative choices.

If you sincerely ask of your subconscious mind that it gives to you that hint or clue as to the direction of movement in your own daily round of activities regarding the traumatic experience, then you may be able to process this type of catalyst in a successful fashion.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: Yeah. Just one question. One of the fringe religions, Scientology, has as its goal the clearing of such blockages, and it is considered the highest good for a person to achieve the state of clarity. On the other hand, I’ve noticed that naturally, without my attempting to do anything about it, that imperfect memory works all the time. I’ve found that I’ve blocked out almost every unfortunate thing that has happened to me that hasn’t happened to me lately. And I go through a progressive way of kind of making my memories golden and just not remembering the rough parts and remembering the good parts. And I wonder, is it important to break through each and every blockage from childhood programming or whatever or is it healthy to accept the protective blocking of traumatic memory?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my sister. We can suggest that as an entity becomes more consciously aware of the process of seeking that is underway in its own being that this choice then becomes more and more a conscious choice and is up to the entity to weigh the alternatives, shall we say. Each entity within your illusion seeks to learn certain lessons. Another way of stating this might be that each seeks to balance distortions or to develop a certain distortion or bias in attitude. It is not so much a case of breaking through a blockage as it is noting the nature of the blockage, or resistance, and determining the nature of the lesson that is held in this symbolic form. Thus, the process of seeking becomes more consciously undertaken, and an entity may then determine that a certain action or attitude is more appropriate at this time than the one which it had been utilizing, and the choice may be made to seek a transformation. The entity always has the opportunity for transformation, for such milestones are placed periodically throughout each incarnation. Yet one who seeks in a more conscious fashion may not only utilize those milestones so placed and utilize them more effectively, but may choose additional milestones or challenges, shall we say.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: Well, just one thing because I think this is probably only of interest to me. It is to be noted that due to the nature of imperfect memory, the only time that you find out about it is when somebody reminds you of something which you’ve forgotten, so usually you don’t know that you don’t remember stuff. So, I’m not sure exactly how you would know the nature of blockage or be able to work on it because you wouldn’t even know what it is that you don’t know—because you don’t know it. If you see what I mean.

I am Latwii, and we believe we grasp the dilemma, and it is a dilemma which is most prevalent within your illusion, for each seeker is as one carrying a tiny light in the darkest of night, attempting to discover a path which will take it from where it is to where it wishes to be. The light illumines but the smallest portion of what lies about the entity. Thus, there is much groping and bruising of the being, it would seem, as the path is sought. Yet the conscious desire to continue this journey tends to rekindle and enable the flame to burn somewhat brighter, that somewhat more of the surroundings might be known. Yet it is the desire to seek the truth that is consciously enhanced that most facilitates this seeking, for within such a darkly and dimly lit illusion there is a good deal of what you might call grace or support which…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii and am once again with this instrument. As we were about to conclude, the seeker is most enabled by the conscious increase of the desire to seek the truth, for within such an illusion as that which you now inhabit, the grace of the one Creator which exists in all portions of the illusion is that which carries you beyond all true harm. Your desire to seek that one Creator is that which shall find its goal, for indeed, it contains that which it seeks.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, my sister. Is there another query?

[Pause]

I am Latwii. We thank you each and every one for allowing our presence this evening. Our humble words are but poor attempts to describe that which is quite beyond description. The most carefully phrased query has the same response as the hum of your locusts for the One answers all in Love. Our attempt at using words and concepts to in some fashion describe this Love and its availability to you are but poor attempts. We thank you for seeking such with us. Upon such a journey it is of great comfort to travel with friends who seek as we seek. We are those of Latwii. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

(Carla channeling)

I Yadda. I greet you in Love and Light of infinite One. We come say “Hi” to J. We not stay very long and wish only to encourage each, for there is a song which is beyond the ears, there is the poem which is beyond the language, and there is the life which is beyond death. Welcome to eternity; welcome to what this instrument call Kingdom of Heaven is here. Is now. And is the most powerful creative force in the universe. You think you can use it to fix up world? No, my friends, although a gentle spirit goes a long way. It is of you only in your heart as you gravitate more and more to the One whence you came. We leave you in that unity with much Love in our hearts for you. We are with you if mentally requested, and we thank you for allowing to take your time. We known to you as those of Yadda. We say farewell in the One. In Love and in Light, farewell.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “Because your mind and mine have become imbued with the ignorance  characteristic of human beliefs, stored full of superstition, environmental, and educational conditioning, and medical and psychological knowledge, we do not view people or things as they are. We view them as they appear to be, judging from appearances, and thereby suffer the consequences of such judgment.

The way to free our mind of ignorance, superstition, and fear is to go back to Eden where there is no knowledge of good and evil and lose concern whether we are “Naked” or clothed, that is, concern whether we are rich or poor at the moment, whether we have human failings or virtues, whether we are happy or unhappy.

Let us begin where we are at this particular moment and let our spiritual unfoldment begin with the understanding that since God is the principle of this universe, it is perfect. A star is a star; a rose is a rose; a dog is a dog is a dog; and a moon is a moon is a moon is a moon; but let us not call them good, and let us not call them bad; let us call them by their names—star, rose, dog, moon—and we shall find that God will reveal their nature to us, and the correct place and function they are to occupy and perform in our experience.

Everything in the universe emanates from God, but people have sought out many inventions. People have twisted and turned the spiritual realities of God’s creation to destructive purposes, until even the glories of the atom have become the horrors of the atom bomb. People have done that, not God. God has given us the principles which enable us to fly through the air, but people have utilized these principles for instruments of devastation, and as long as the mind is distorted with the ideas of good and evil, the blessings of these God-given ideas will become the tombs for millions of people. When there is no trace of good or evil intent in our mind, however, that unconditioned mind becomes an instrument through which these principles put out in their purity, harmony, and perfection.

In proportion as we keep our mind free of judgments, it functions without concepts, so that when the principles of life come into expression they come through as they did through Einstein, as pure law. Similarly, when the Spirit comes through the minds of understanding practitioners who sit in the Silence with no judgment—not trying to get rid of a disease, not trying to overcome a sin, and not trying to destroy a fear, but just sitting there in a vacuum of God’s grace—the truth comes through in its purity, and the patient says, “I feel better” or “I have had a healing.”

This morning I ran some errands with my first stop being at Thieneman’s Nursery where I bought 13 more Caladium. My second stop was at Kroger’s where I bought some food for myself. My last stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought more food for myself. When I got home, I transplanted the Caladium into the Sun Mandala behind the garage. Then I watered them with fertilized water. Then I weeded and dug up the ground around the giant Sycamore in my back yard. Then I level the clods in the ground with my garden rake.

This afternoon I got my hair cut at Absolutely Nails in Middletown. When I got home transplanted the Coleus flowers in six groups of three different colors in each group around the giant Sycamore. Then I watered the groups of Coleus flowers with fertilized water. Then I used Whip Lash to weed the Striped Lariope Garden and the Astilbe Garden in the back yard. Then I used Whip Lash to weed the Lariope on the west side of the fishpond. Then I cleaned the filters in the schemer in the fishpond, and then I put the netting and the extension cord in place over the netting by the schemer. Then I threw half a cup of AquaSafe into the fishpond to neutralize the chlorine in the fresh water. Then I turned on the fountain, and the height was perfect!

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

April 23

The Holy Vibration

I am the Spirit of the full consciousness of Love. I greet you in the name of Jesus the Christ.

For the spiritually oriented seeker, names are very important. For the breath that is the Spirit of Love molds itself into vibrations which have a profound effect upon the creature which, though physical, has resonances with the metaphysical self in its analog.

That is to say that the name of the Lord of your life has the vibration of strength for you. Thus, the name of Jesus, though not the earthly name, Jehoshua, nevertheless bears the strongest vibratory significance to the instinctual, creaturely self which resonates with the analogous spiritual body which is the spiritual body incorruptible.

Know that the breath of the spirit is breathed into you as you think upon holy names and is breathed from you as you consciously vibrate words of Love which are meaningful to those whom you wish to Love and serve.

We leave you upon the holy vibration of peace, 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 Hatonn, Latwii, and Yadda channelings for this session come from July 28, 1985:

(L1 channeling)

I am Hatonn, and I greet you, my brothers and sisters, in the Love and in the Light of the infinite Creator. My friends, we are greatly pleased that you should take the time from your busy day to join your vibration with our own and to share with us that we may both benefit. It is our desire to come to you, not as a teacher, but rather as a brother or sister, who upon returning home, shares that which has recently been learned, those awarenesses which come upon one during one’s day that he or she would offer to another self for examination and understanding. My friends, please understand that in this service, we necessarily learn from the sharing and therefore are quite grateful that you offer us the service of your time and attention.

It is our desire tonight to share with you some thoughts on the subject of eternity, for as your tuning has smoothed the path toward such a discussion, we desire to follow the flow of the river of consciousness and continue in the same channel. My friends, eternity quite often is regarded in one of two fashions. It is either the vague and murky period somewhere in the distant future which we are often told we should somehow prepare for, yet recognize that it is sufficiently distant as to make such preparation lacking in immediacy.

The other perception of eternity is in itself almost a contradiction of itself, for we often regard it as a vague period of time, beginning in the quite immediate future, for which there is not sufficient time to make preparation, so we simply avoid thinking about it. In each of the two conceptions we manage to safely distance ourselves from any responsibility or effort. But, my friends, those here are seekers, and the seeker is aware that that which surrounds himself or herself is eternity, that that point within which one identified his location in time is perched quite deeply within that which we call eternity, rather than a safe distance before it.

So, my friends, we ask, is it not wiser to examine that with which we now occupy ourselves for eternity? Is it truly the wisest choice to spend our eternity in the pursuit of finite objectives, of petty quarrels, of insignificant pursuits? Are we wise to spend our eternity debating which vacation to take or how to invest our money? My friends, we offer these questions not to belittle those pursuits which are facets of your daily lives and those of your brothers and sisters, but rather to emphasize that it is quite tempting within the illusion to spend one’s time and effort holding eternity at bay, to tell that quiet voice within that we will begin our efforts toward the development of ourselves just as soon as one more pursuit has been accomplished or perhaps later in the week when one is not so busy.

My friends, eternity does not begin now—eternity has been with you always. And we ask you to examine in your heart the wisdom of spending your eternity delaying your efforts to prepare yourselves for that eternity. We speak not in terms of eternal reward or eternal punishment, for, my friends, each of you is aware that those will be the result of your desire to reward or punish yourselves. We speak, rather, of your inner desire to return to that source, to once again reunite yourself with all of your other selves, to become again conscious of that which in the entirety of your brothers and sisters throughout your universe you will one day become.

My friends, if we may be forgiven for attempting to urge you to one decision over another, then we ask you to prepare yourselves for that journey. I am known to you as Hatonn. Adonai, my friends. Vasu borragus.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and we greet you, my friends, in the Love and the Light of our infinite Creator. We also are most privileged to be asked to join your group this evening. We hope, as always, that we might be of some small service by offering ourselves in an attempt to answer whatever queries may be of value to you. We would, however, preface this service by reminding each that we are but your fallible brothers and sisters. If any word we speak should confuse or annoy you in any way, please cast it aside. Take those that have value and use them as you will. With that disclaimer aside, we would ask if we might begin with the first query.

R: I wonder if you could answer without infringement who it was I saw last night?

I am Latwii. We are aware of your query, my brother. We find that you have had an experience of what would be called an unusual nature, one which is often desired in order that, shall we say, a certain form of reassurance might be had and might quiet the disturbed mind upon a certain point. Because this experience has the capability of answering this desire upon your part, and because this desire is a central portion of your own learning process, we must satisfy ourselves with this general response without giving more specific details that would do for you that which you seek to do for yourself.

May we answer further, my brother?

R: Not on that, Latwii, no. But I wonder if you could comment on the, I guess, the pros and cons of chemotherapy?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my brother. This is a somewhat difficult query, for this technique of healing within your allopathic community is one which is usually utilized when the condition of the entity is quite, quite deteriorated. The disease, as you call it, among your people at this time known as the cancer is becoming more prevalent in various portions of the physical vehicle. Because of certain attitudes and ways of perceiving in a somewhat limited fashion, shall we say, diseases such as cancer proliferate among your people in order to provide learning devices or focuses for the attention. When the attention has been diverted for a long enough portion of what you call time, the teaching device, the disease, progresses in becoming more obvious that the one suffering the disease might notice and work with this catalyst for learning. When the condition has been allowed to progress to the point where it is feared that the physical vehicle shall fail and become unviable, it is often necessary if the incarnation is to be prolonged and further learning be available that what you would call drastic means be utilized.

Thus, in many cases, such a course of treatment would be seen as quite appropriate if the entity at the core of its being desired additional time to process the catalyst which had been placed before it. However, as you are aware, this particular course of treatment is one which has its own set of somewhat drastic, shall we say, side effects. In all types of healing treatment which do not take into account the lesson which has been symbolized in physical disorder, there will be some side effect which is not desired. This must be weighed by any entity conscious of the evolutionary process which it is experiencing within its incarnation.

May we answer further, my brother?

R: I don’t want to take up any more time. I really appreciate it, Latwii. It was most helpful. Thank you.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, my brother. Is there another query?

Carla: [inaudible] the last one of L2’s. It’s only four lines this time. “God,” he defines God here as “the one Creator’s power is so incomprehensibly infinite that in one text it is said, ‘He tempts the true devotee with awesome powers experientially before admitting same back into mahapahanirvana.’ Can this be further explicated?” Want it again?

I am Latwii, and we are unsure as to whether we have a complete grasp of this query but we shall make our best effort at focusing a response which lies within the boundaries drawn by this query.

The various philosophies that have been developed by the many cultures and groups within cultures of people upon your planet all speak in some manner of a God force, a Creator, a Logos, a primal force of some nature. All are aware, it would seem, that there is more to the daily life than what is usually experienced. It is felt by each on a subconscious level at least that there is some vitalizing force that moves through life and which can be known in some fashion. The various religions and philosophies which have attempted to codify and explain this God force to individuals within the culture or religion have by the attempt to describe that which is indescribable often created distortions of understanding amongst these people who have adopted one or another philosophy as a path to that God force. Thus, each will describe this force and each entity’s relationship to it in a slightly variant fashion. There will be numerous activities in many religions and philosophies that are seen as good and which promote this search and seeking for the truth or the God force. There will be, as well, many actions and thoughts which will be described as “bad” or “evil” and will be seen to prohibit this process. Thus does each philosophy and religion seek to describe the path to the Creator for the seeker. Various enticements are offered; various prohibitions are put in place. Yet within each philosophy and religion, there exists enough of what you may call the truth that the seeker who is pure in heart and desire may travel a path within that religion or philosophy and find the goal which it seeks. This is true, my friends, for to the best of our understanding, there is no portion of any entity or of any part of creation which does not contain that which is sought. This is to say that all things, all entities, are the Creator and are that which each seeks.

That this is not obvious and clear to those within your illusion of reality is both a blessing and, while in the incarnation, would seem a curse. It is a blessing, my friends, that you operate in what has been called a veil or darkness, a forgetting of who you are, because in this state of thinking, the attempts that you make to seek the truth carry much more weight within your total beingness than would such attempts carry should it be obvious that all things are the one Creator. It would not be difficult to love without condition; it would not be difficult to give without stint; it would not be difficult to see the one Creator in all entities and experiences if there were no other thing to see. Yet within your illusion it seems a curse to move in such darkness with such dimly lit pathways, for the errors seem to greatly outnumber the successes in finding any portion of truth and purpose in life. Yet, my friends, we say that because the one Creator exists in all entities, each experience of every entity is an experience of the Creator knowing Itself. Thus, do each of you glorify the one Creator by presenting the gifts of your experiences, however small or large, to the one Creator. These experiences would not be available without your efforts.

Carla asked: “[inaudible] the last one of L2’s. It’s only four lines this time. “God,” he defines God here as “the one Creator’s power is so incomprehensibly infinite that in one text it is said, ‘He tempts the true devotee with awesome powers experientially before admitting same back into mahapahanirvana.’ Can this be further explicated?” Want it again?” Latwii replied the various philosophies that have been developed by the many cultures and groups within cultures of people upon your planet all speak in some manner of a Creator, a Logos, a primal force of some nature, and all are aware that there is more to the daily life than what is experienced, and it is felt by each on a subconscious level that there is some vitalizing force that moves through life and which can be known in some fashion, so the various religions and philosophies which have attempted to explain this God force to individuals within the culture or religion have, by the attempt to describe that which is indescribable, often created distortions of understanding amongst these people who have adopted one or another philosophy as a path to that God force, for each will describe this force and each entity’s relationship to it in a slightly variant fashion, for there will be numerous activities in many religions and philosophies that are seen as good and which promote this search and seeking for the God force, yet there will be many thoughts which will be described as “evil” and will be seen to prohibit this process, so does each philosophy and religion seek to describe the path to the Creator for the seeker, where enticements are offered, and prohibitions are put in place, yet within each philosophy and religion, there exists enough of what the truth that the seeker who is pure in heart may travel a path within that religion or philosophy and find the goal which it seeks, yet this is true, for there is no portion of any entity or of any part of creation which does not contain that which is sought, and this is to say that all things, all entities, are the Creator and are that which each seeks. Then Latwii said that this is not obvious to those within your illusion is both a blessing and a curse, so it is a blessing that you operate in a forgetting of who you are because in this state of thinking the attempts that you make to seek the truth carry more weight within your beingness than would such attempts carry should it be obvious that all things are the one Creator, for it would not be difficult to Love without condition; it would not be difficult to see the one Creator in all entities and experiences if there were no other thing to see, yet within your illusion it seems a curse to move in such darkness, for the errors seem to outnumber the successes in finding any portion of truth and purpose in life, but we say that because the one Creator exists in all entities, each experience of every entity is an experience of the Creator knowing Itself, so do each of you glorify the one Creator by presenting the gifts of your experiences to the one Creator, but these experiences would not be available without your efforts. On January 7, 2017, Q’uo spoke of how the one Creator exists in all entities:

You realize that the One Creator exists in all entities and all things, and you wish to honor and glorify that One Creator in every instance in which you partake. Thus is the rightness of your livelihood defined: that which honors the Creator of all and seeks the Creator of all and reflects the Creator of all. Thus, my friends, as you ponder with your heart, with your mind, with your emotions, and with what you may call your intuition, how to proceed upon this new path of right livelihood, we would suggest that you utilize all of these assets that are yours in order to give yourself a rounded picture, shall we say, of possibilities.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: I’d like to pick on one phrase that L2 used because I think it’s the heart of this question. And it is said that, “God tempts the seeker with awesome powers experientially before admitting same,” which I assume to be, “before admitting the seeker,” back into the state of bliss.“ Are, in your opinion, the powers of the one Creator a temptation? They certainly are awesome…

Latwii: I…

Carla: …It strikes me that this is the heart of the question and there’s something just… it’s hard to put my finger on, but it seems wrong-headed somehow.

I am Latwii, and we ask your forgiveness for interrupting your query. We find we have caught this instrument’s disease. We shall attempt to speak to this point. In our previous response, we attempted to cover this point in a general fashion by suggesting that the philosophies of those who move in darkness may be quite distorted, yet each is a portion of the one Creator. We may attempt clarification by suggesting that the query as stated suggests a Creator which exists apart from those who seek the one Creator. This is a premise which we do not accept, thus we did not speak in a direct fashion to it, for there is no external Creator that tempts any to seek it. There is one Creator which exists in all portions of creation which nurtures each of Its creations, and grants to each the free will to seek It in any fashion which it chooses.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: Could you say then that perhaps the temptations of which L2 speaks have more to do with blockages in the lower chakras which may cause a person to wish for power or success in the spiritual sense, possibly recognition, as opposed to desiring to find always the will of the higher self and the Creator?

I am Latwii, and we hope that we may be of service in this response by suggesting that the temptations spoken of in the query are more properly assigned to various philosophies and entities holding such points of view. The seeker has the will, the desire to seek. How this is used is a function of the seeker’s point of view which in turn may be further affected by the philosophy or religion which it has adopted.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No. I believe I see that what you’re saying is that the question is so heavily biased that there’s no real way to get at it. And I accept that. I thank you for L2.

I am Latwii, and we thank you and the one known as L2 for offering the service of this query. May we attempt another query?

N: Yes. I wonder if there’s any authenticity to the newspaper report concerning [inaudible] extraterrestrial craft dogfight over [inaudible]?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my brother. In matters of this nature, we find it more appropriate to leave the conclusions to those interested in such phenomena. We do not feel it appropriate to verify or nullify items of this nature, for they bear little fruit on the seeker’s journey.

May we attempt another query, my brother?

Questioner: Latwii, is monogamy the ultimate form of relationship between a heterosexual mating couple?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my brother. We find that the use of the adjective, “ultimate,” befuddles somewhat the clarity of the query. We would perhaps be more comfortable and be of more service it we were allowed to substitute the phrase, “more efficient,” for that particular adjective, for we believe that the heart of your query concerns the type of relationship which is most helpful to those within it as each pursues the evolutionary process of seeking the truth and discovering the nature of the self. The pairing of the male and female entities within your illusion and beyond your illusion is seen as being the most efficient in that the nature of creation as we understand it is reproduced within such a couple. Yet, it must be remembered that these male and female forces, these positive and negatively charged forces, are found both in each biological entity, be that entity male or female. Yet, the male and female entities then, as they interact one with the other…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and we are once again with this instrument. To continue. These male and female qualities, then, being expressed within this mated relationship allow the mirroring effect to occur with greater intensity and frequency. This mirroring effect is the effect that occurs when one sees within another self those characteristics that are loved and accepted and those that are not loved and not accepted. In truth, these are the characteristics of the self which are loved or not loved, and are those characteristics which outline the lessons and services that the entity has designed into the life pattern from the pre-incarnational state. The intensity and frequency of this mirroring effect, then, is due to the natural attractions and interactions that are set in motion by the basic positive and negative forces of creation moving within the mated couple. That the relationship is one which is seen as a life-long relationship insures that the mirroring effect will be produced on a frequent basis. The frequency aids in the intensification of the opportunity to see the self within another and to work upon the self as one works upon the relationship with the other self. Thus, the male qualities of radiance and reaching for that experience not yet held and the female qualities of magnetism, of awaiting the reaching and potentiating the experience, are those qualities which continue to—we scan for the correct term—redound and rebound within the experience of each entity, echoing and reechoing the attraction of lessons, the catalyst of these lessons, and the opportunity to continue the lessons throughout the incarnation.

Questioner asked: “Latwii, is monogamy the ultimate form of relationship between a heterosexual mating couple?” Then Latwii said we find that the use of the adjective, “ultimate,” befuddles somewhat the clarity of the query, so we would be of more service it we were allowed to substitute the phrase, “more efficient,” for that particular adjective, for we believe that the heart of your query concerns the type of relationship which is most helpful to those within it as each pursues the evolutionary process of seeking and discovering the nature of the self, so the pairing of the male and female entities within your illusion and beyond your illusion is seen as being the most efficient in that the nature of creation is reproduced within such a couple, yet it must be remembered that these male and female forces are found both in each biological entity, be that entity male or female.

On August 24, 2005, Q’uo described the nature of the mirroring effect:

The hidden benefit of such a group is the opportunity that the members of such a group offer to each other for learning about themselves. This instrument has spoken often about the mirroring effect of other people in her life. And certainly, this mirroring effect is greatly enhanced when a group which is conscious of wishing to be of service comes together in commonality of purpose and offers friendship and companionship, one to the other.

Each entity becomes a mirror that reflects back to the self what the self is creating and expressing within that group. Certainly, many of the reflections which one receives from such a hall of mirrors, as this instrument has called a spiritually-oriented group, may be warped or distorted in some way, therefore not offering a completely accurate image. However, the colorations and distortions offered by each entity within the group are in themselves interesting and offer in some cases that precious item which is so often under-appreciated by your people; that is catalyst. Even those who may see you in a critical or otherwise distorted fashion are of benefit to you in that they offer you material upon which to work both by using your powers of analysis and your powers of intuition and insight.

May we answer further, my brother?

Questioner: That was fine.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, my brother, for your query. Is there another query at this time?

L1: How is the instrument doing?

I am Latwii, and we find that the instrument t is available for a number of queries yet, having sufficient energy present.

May we ask if there might be a further query?

L1: Was I getting some communication from Yadda a little while ago?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my brother. That you have discovered this fact is therefore that which allows our response. The one known as J was hopeful that he might once again hear from his favorite friends. The one known as Carla has been the sole instrument used by those of Yadda to date, and was itself hopeful that perhaps another might be able to “chew upon that rye bread.” Thus, those of Yadda offered to your instrument the opportunity of tasting the rye.

May we answer further, my brother?

L1: No, I’ll simply respond that I’d be willing to serve in that fashion when the time comes.

I am Latwii. We appreciate your offer of service, my brother, and those of Yadda are most appreciative as well.

Is there another query?

Carla: I don’t know if you can remember this—speaking to the instrument—there was a question that I was supposed to ask and I have forgotten. If the instrument remembers it, would the instrument vocalize it and allow the channel to answer it?

I am Latwii, and if you do not mind our paraphrasing of the query which this instrument has fed into our awareness, we shall be happy to attempt this query. The query concerned the proper density for holding that state of consciousness which has come to be known as the Christ consciousness. There is some difficulty with this query, for the term “Christ” within many of the cultures of your peoples is a term which is closely associated with an entity known as Jesus of Nazareth. This entity, the one known as Jesus, is one who through its own efforts at seeking the one Creator was one able to attain a state of consciousness that may be described as the Christ or Christed consciousness. This is a level of awareness and experience of being which is available to all portions of the one Creator in a more or less distorted fashion. The distortion is most usually a function of the density or vibratory frequency within which it has been attained. Thus, within your third-density illusion, though much is available to any attaining this crystal pure consciousness, there is by the very density itself some distortion that might be expected.

As the vibratory frequency becomes more filled with Light, shall we say, or the energy of creation, to put it another way, the ability of an entity within such a vibratory frequency to experience the Christ consciousness is enhanced and, therefore, suffers less distortion. In some fashion, any entity achieving this Christ consciousness will have experienced unity with the one Creator and will be thus enspirited and inspired to be of further service to those about it, for each is seen as a portion of the one Creator to know that it is, indeed, loved and Love itself. One who has known this facet of the one Creator, that is, Love, then seeks to share that experience and power with those who call for it. Within your illusion, the lessons which all pursue in a unique fashion focus about the concept of Love. Therefore, the achievement of the Christ consciousness will have a strong coloration of this Love portion or facet of the one Creator. Those within the next, shall we say, class or vibratory frequency learn lessons that focus upon wisdom, and thus will their experience of Christ consciousness be colored by the characteristic of wisdom. Those pursuing the balance of love and wisdom within the following vibratory frequency will, perforce, experience the Christ consciousness in that balanced fashion. And thus, each experiences the same level of consciousness, but from a different angle or facet, shall we say.

Carla asked: “I don’t know if you can remember this—speaking to the instrument—there was a question that I was supposed to ask, and I have forgotten. If the instrument remembers it, would the instrument vocalize it and allow the channel to answer it?” Latwii began by saying the query concerned the proper density for holding that state of the Christ consciousness, but there is some difficulty with this query, for the term “Christ” within many of the cultures of your people is a term which is closely associated with Jesus of Nazareth, for Jesus is one, who through Its efforts at seeking the one Creator, was one able to attain a state of Christ or Christed consciousness, and this is a level of awareness of being which is available to all portions of the one Creator in a more or less distorted fashion, so the distortion is usually a function of the density within which it has been attained, yet within your third-density illusion, though much is available to any attaining this crystal pure consciousness, there is by the very density itself some distortion that might be expected. Latwii went on to say as the vibratory frequency becomes filled with Light the ability of an entity within such a vibratory frequency to experience the Christ consciousness is enhanced, and it suffers less distortion, so in some fashion, any entity achieving this Christ consciousness will have experienced unity with the one Creator and will be inspired to be of further service to those about it, for each is seen as a portion of the one Creator to know that it is loved and is Love itself, yet one who has known this facet of the Love of the Creator seeks to share that experience with those who call for it, so within your illusion the lessons which all pursue in a unique fashion focus about the concept of Love, for the achievement of the Christ consciousness will have a strong coloration of this Love portion of the one Creator, but those within the next vibratory frequency learn lessons that focus upon wisdom, and thus will their experience of Christ consciousness be colored by the characteristic of wisdom, and those pursuing the balance of love and wisdom within the following vibratory frequency will experience Christ consciousness in a balanced fashion, so each experiences the same level of consciousness, but from a different angle. On November 3, 1979, Jesus described the nature of Christ consciousness:

It is well, my friends, my beloved children, to meditate upon that which is your cross so that you may the better take it up. But we ask you to remember that it is through the cross that you can achieve redemption for all those about you, through your great Love, and sacrifice, and ultimate resurrection. What I wish to say to you now is that you will be aware more and more as you grow towards the consciousness, which you choose to call Christ Consciousness, of the endless wonder of existence in the creation of the Father; to live, my friends, in a constellation of beings who are individual, unique, and miraculous; to have, through grace and the Holy Spirit that dwells among you, all power for good and for Love. Think you that you are unworthy of wonder and joy?

Shed your unworthiness! You do not need it, and it does not need you. Enter then into the kingdom which awaits you. A kingdom that is here, my friends, in this illusion, on this plane of existence. Enter into the kingdom of those who have washed in the waters of healing. Know that which is your cross, and Love and accept that which is your cross, and so shall you be healed.

It may not seem so to the world, but it is your soul that is of significance, and it is your soul that must be healed and washed and, once clean, you shall be called holy and you shall be called chosen. Not by others and not by yourself, but by the impersonal and Loving judgment of Light. For your souls are the stuff of Light. Thus, heal your souls by constantly standing in consciousness of Love, and wash and wash with that Love until you are clean. Let this be private, and secret, and speak to no one. For the world will not understand that which you do in the name of the Father.

But that which is within will come out. And thus, you will become an instrument for Love. What Love I have in me is yours, my brothers and sisters. You are my beloved brethren. And you are next to my heart, as are all conscious beings. Know that you can and you will be healed of whatever keeps your soul in bondage. And seek always that holy ground which lies beneath your feet wherever you stand. I am with you in prayer. I am by your side in meditation. My Love goes with you, my peace I give to you. I am known to you as Jesus. My peace to you, my friends.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, my sister. Is there another query?

J: Yes, Latwii. I don’t think Yadda is rye bread. I think he’s crêpes with orange marmalade.

I am Latwii, and we enjoy your description of our brothers and sisters of Yadda, and we find that they are curling their tongues and smacking their lips at your menu.

May we be of service by answering a query?

Questioner: Latwii, the question came up this afternoon, I guess it was yesterday afternoon, about the sexual nature of the one known as Christ Jesus—the entity and the balancing of that sexual energy that he had, which I believe was recorded in Jane Roberts’ The Seth Material. Can you speak a little bit about this balancing that the entity known as Christ experienced?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my brother. Again, the entity known as Jesus was one who sought the Love of the Father, as this entity put it, for this entity’s experience was in the end one which equated Love with the Creator and with all creation. The love of the sexual nature is an experience which when used in a conscious fashion may greatly accelerate the evolutionary progress within the conscious seeker, for that which enters the base energy center or chakra is what may be called prana or intelligent energy, also to be known as Love, the creative force responsible for the creation itself. Thus, each individual receives this creative force through the base chakra, and by its own free will and its system of beliefs, will use that energy in any of an infinite number of ways.

Most who are not conscious of the seeking process utilize this energy in the sexual manner only, thereby insuring the reproduction of the species and the satisfying of the body’s sexual urges. The one known as Jesus, as is necessary for any conscious seeker, was able to consciously move this energy received at the base chakra through each successive chakra or energy center, and with each move was able to step up the vibratory frequency of this energy and balance each chakra in turn, thereby regularizing and crystallizing its own being. Therefore, the intelligent energy or Love of the Creator was free to move through this entity without diffraction or distortion in any way. Thus, the white Light of the Creator, this intelligent energy, moved through the crystallized being of the one known as Jesus in such a fashion that there was no color other than white, shall we say, which emanated from this entity’s being or any chakra, as it was able to channel this intelligent energy in a pure fashion because of its conscious understanding and mastery of the evolutionary process at work in its own incarnation. There was some experience of the physical sexual nature that served to trigger this entity’s ability to achieve this channeling of intelligent energy in a pure fashion, but it was found by this entity that its own desires were such that it sought to refine this process of enhancing or stepping up the basal frequency in a conscious manner without the recourse to sexual intercourse, shall we say.

May we answer further, my brother?

Questioner: Am I to understand that this refractive process is what creates or is the process of desire, and that we have this balancing available to us also in order to achieve, let’s say, a more balanced energizing. I don’t know if I stated that correctly or not. Could Latwii speak on that?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my brother. In general, we would agree with your summation. To hopefully clarify, we would also suggest that each distortion or imbalance that each entity contains in each chakra are the symbols of the lessons that each has encoded within the life experience. Thus, when the Light of the Creator is diffracted into a certain color by a certain distortion, this is a process which points out to the entity within the incarnation that there is, shall we say, food for thought available, that there is a portion of the self awaiting discovery, there is experience to be had and balancing of this experience then to also be enjoyed.

May we answer further, my brother?

Questioner: I could probably keep you going all night, but I think that’ll probably suffice for my questions at the moment.

I am Latwii. Is there another query?

[Pause]

I am Latwii. We find that we have, for the nonce, exhausted the queries. We thank each who has offered the gift of the query. We hope that our humble response has been of some service. Again, we remind each to take that which has value and to leave that which has none in the personal seeking of truth. We leave each of you at this time in the Love and in the Light of the one Creator Who Is All in All. We are those of Latwii. Adonai. Adonai vasu borragus.

(Carla channeling)

I Yadda. I greet in Love and in Light of infinite Creator. We so happy to be with Joe and his friends. And we bless each and are most grateful that we may speak with you ever so briefly, for we do not wish to make you sit too long. We are also confirm we were giving conditioning as best we could to one known as L1, and we find much luck with this instrument due to the lack, the lack of experience with the trance. We find we can use this instrument at a very right science level because of the instrument’s ability to say, “Oh, what the heck, I go ahead and say whatever comes out because I have challenged.”

You know, we have made fun many times of this instrument’s challenging in the name of Christ. We say, “How about somebody else? There are many good people to challenge with. How about Mohammed; how about Buddha?” But this instrument is not Buddhist; this instrument is not Muslim. Therefore she challenge in name of Christ. We have come to understand this. Therefore, we no longer make fuss with this instrument when this instrument gives the challenge, for we are very happy that there is challenging, for it make this instrument free for us to use.

We leave you only a question, one we ask often. We shall phrase it not like question, but like situation. Here is your situation: Take away your job. Who are you? We gonna keep going here—aha! Take away your clothes; you are wearing sheets now—everybody look alike—aha?! Take away the haircuts, and any artificial means of decoration of the self. How much of you is left? All of you, of course. But who are you in there? We goin’ find you. We take off shoes. We not goin’ to leave anything but your inner self.

Now what are you going to do? Take away your body. You are only disembodied spirit. But you can turn on TV; you can do anything you wish. Now, there is no one to impress but yourself. Now. Where lie your interests? How would you spend your day? We suggest that most of you are still enough with this world that you would spend a lot of time with the television, the movie, the book, the record, and all the diversions that you so love. We of course are not mentioning things like the tennis because that is often a way of saying who you are, and it is false. We want you to go now through that period where you are tired now of watching that which is outside. Sooner or later, you gonna turn inside and you goin’ to look around.

Now who are you? You got a lot of work to do. That work, my friends, can only be done with that which you do not have unless you meditate, for all that you attempt to do to be of service, all that you attempt to do by “rearning,” by learning—we are sorry, that one hard for us—aha!—must go before you get the clear look at the limitation of the self that will go away unlamented when you do, indeed, lose this particular chemical body. But you are spiritual person; each is spirit, is soul, that which is ancient. Therefore, within meditation there is that which may put you in touch with who you are. And more than that, may give you tools to use, resources to use in the manifestation of the discovery of why you are. Can you Love and serve without recourse to meditation and the contact with that which is infinite? You try—you get tired fast.

We thank you for asking us. We are through now, and so leave you in Love and in Light of infinite One. Listen, my friends, to the silence behind sound, for therein lies your consciousness in its whole reality. How many illusions shall you pierce within the next day or group of days this instrument call week or month? Attire yourself, my friends, not to your clothing first, not to your job first, never to the outer things first. But first to the silence and to the discipline of listening to that silence. For it will drum in your ears louder than all the birdsong, thunder, lightning, rain, hail, all the crickets and other insects, all the trains and planes, anything you can think of. There is nothing so deafening as the sudden tabernacling, shall we say, with the Creator that is you. And nothing is more beautiful than the soul that carries himself away from meditation and into the world. O, rejoice my friends, for you seek and you shall find.

We leave you. We are Yadda. Adonai. Adonai. Farewell.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “Everything in this world has a spiritual significance, but you will never discover what that significance is by consulting dictionaries or encyclopedias. You will only come into an awareness of the function and spiritual significance of anything as you turn within to that vacuum which you have created by your realization: “This is not what it appears to be, and of my own self, I cannot interpret this appearance. God alone an interpret it correctly. So now, God, what is it?” Then will come the revelation and the unfoldment of its true identity and spiritual significance.

If you are one who is plagued by lack, it is possible that you may find yourself in such a state of confusion, with your mind so beset with a sense of fear that there may not be a sufficiency, and that sometimes you find it very hard to quiet your mind enough for a peaceful meditation. But there is a way in which you can meditate, even with these disturbing thoughts uppermost in your consciousness, and your mind will settle down into such a peace and tranquility that God will be able to speak to you about supply.

Take out a piece of money—it makes no difference what its denomination is, whether a coin or currency—and put it in front of you. Look at it. If you can see what I see, you will agree that it is as dead as a doornail—inanimate and lifeless.

If you continue looking at this piece of money and proceed with your cogitations, your thought will eventually turn to where this money came from, and how it came into your possession. Perhaps somebody gave it to you as an expression of love or gratitude; or if you earned it, it represents somebody’s payment to you for service of some kind. Then you may think of the use that will be made of it. As a piece of metal or paper, it has no value to you; but it can be used as a medium of exchange for marketing or purchases of one kind or another. You are now beginning to lose sight of this object as money and are gaining the vision of its function as something useful, loving, and generous. Soon your mind has gone beyond the money itself, and you begin to see why this money belongs to you.

Once you are able to look at money in this light you will see that far from its supplying you that it is you who supply money with its capacities and power. By that time your mind has gone from the physical realm into the invisible, and peace descends, quiet comes, and a complete stillness in which you can receive an impartation from God in regard to the true interpretation of money.

This morning I stopped by Thieneman’s Nursery to buy 21 Caladium, 18 Coleus, and a tray of Surdiva Violet Flowers. When I got home I dug up the Sun Mandala behind the garage and leveled it out with a garden rake.     

This afternoon I was honored to be a co-host on the European Law of One Telegram Group. Today I read Session #70 to them, and when I had finished reading it, some of the questions were: “What is happening all at once in the universe?” “What is the form-maker body?” “What are neurons?” “How do wanderers serve others on Earth?” and are we still in contact with our L/L Research friends of many years ago?

After this session I went outside, and I transplanted 21 Caladium Flowers in the Sun Mandala behind the garage. Then I watered the plants with fertilized water and covered them with netting to protect them from the deer. I will need to buy 13 more Caladium tomorrow to finish Sun Mandala’s Caladium Garden. Then I transplanted 13 Surdiva Blue Flowers in two areas of the Flower Garden in the middle of the Moss Garden. Then I watered them with fertilized water.

Yesterday I heard that David Wilcock passed into larger life. He shined a great Light when he was with us, and I know that he will shine it again.

“Our hearts are saddened to learn about the passing of David Wilcock. David was a crucial link for many people in discovering the Law of One and igniting the flame of spiritual seeking in their hearts. Though he ultimately forged his own path in offering his unique service to the world, Carla, Jim, and Gary got to know David personally as friends and fellow seekers. He had a great passion for sharing his gifts and research in service to others. Please join us in praying for healing and peace for his soul during his transition into larger life.”

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

April 22

The Waterfall

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

There is a waterfall that streams from infinity, its sparkling rainbow cascades invisible to the eye but full of healing and health, nourishment and nutrition for the spirit.

This cascade flows wherever there is consciousness. And the Love that surrounds you is there because you are Loved. This day, allow the consciousness of that Love to fill you, that all that you do, you may do for the Love of Jesus Christ.

Have you the chores, the small tasks, the seemingly unimportant dusting and paperwork and foolishness of that sort? Do it for the Love of Jesus the Christ. Do all for the Love of the Creator.

Then shall the waterfall of Love be answered by your Love. Then shall the waterfall move into you and through you to bless the world anew. For only the created can express the uncreated Light that is the waterfall of divine Love. Feel it surround you. Express it within you. Allow it to flow through you. And do all that you do for the love of the Christ.

We leave you in the consciousness of its peace, now and always. 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. The Oxal, Latwii, and Yadda channelings for this session come from July 21, 1985:

(Carla channeling)

I am Oxal. I greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator in whose name we come this evening. We thank you for calling us to you and hope that our humble words may hold something that may be of value to you this evening, reminding you, as always, that we are, as you, full of mistakes, full of errors and without any pretension to infallibility. Therefore, we ask you to consult your own inner wisdom. There is that within you which recognizes truth and which knows the truths that you need at this particular moment. Take what you will and discard the rest without a backward glance, for our wish is only to aid you, not to teach you any dogma. We know the path, and we know the journey. But the steps you take are your own. You cannot walk as others walk nor can you meet the difficulties that others meet or experience the joys that others experience. What is in common is the journey itself and the joy and peace that lies from the commitment of oneself to seeking the truth.

As the shadows lengthen and the evening comes into the windows of your domicile, so each of you sits, in some way broken. None of you is any longer whole; none of you is any longer confident that everything is perfect. And many of you count this to be a discomfort, perhaps even a weakness or a lack of faith. We ask you to consider the nature of transformation. We would use the example, simplistic though it is, of a cup which must be empty, emptied of all dregs and all substance before it may contain new drink. We ask you to consider a fresh-baked loaf of bread. It is useless until it is broken. In your young wholeness, my friends, you were full of something very valuable, the unexamined and totally trusted Light and Love of the Creator that blows about children and makes them so special to the adults about them. But there is no learning in this untouched condition. Does bread count it as cruelty to be broken that it may be eaten? We think not. Do you count it as cruel that life has fragmented your understanding and caused you to raise questions about yourself and others and the nature of the universe? Sometimes it is impossible for those within an illusion as dense as yours not to feel that it is cruel to be so broken by experience. And yet, brokenness is an utterly necessary prelude to transformation. Whole, untouched, you are finite. Broken, you become infinite, infinitely full of possibility, of newness, and of the potential for life, life that is new and vital.

It is as though the illusion which you now enjoy is a kind of threshing machine. It is inevitable that you shall come between the grinding wheels, and that you shall feel burst apart, sometimes slowly, sometimes all at once. These moments and times of your incarnational experience are the most pregnant with possibility for the acceleration of your spiritual evolution, for you have moved into an infinity when you are no longer closed. What we say rings of the impractical, and we realize that you seek not only that which is theoretical but that which may serve as an ethic that may inspire behavior which manifests that which you hold dear: service to others, Love; there are many good qualities we could name for which you may be seeking inspiration. Your best quality is the willingness to be broken because that willingness is the willingness to learn, and, my friends, all things in your illusion teach the lessons of Love. Each time you are broken, you are being offered a new way to come to a new understanding, if we may use that misnomer, of Love. And by this we do not mean that which you call love, but rather that which you call Logos, that Love which is creative and original, that Love which is the Creator, for that Love which is all of us, for we and you and all that there is are the Creator. Closed, you are the citizen of an illusion. It is as though your fullness were a prison. Each time you face adversity, you escape that prison and you are open to the transfiguration of another learning of Love.

In this session Oxal speaks about the concept of transformation. They began by saying as the shadows lengthen, and the evening comes into the windows of your domicile, so each of you sits, in some way broken, for none of you is any longer whole or confident that everything is perfect, and many of you count this to be a weakness, and we ask you to consider the nature of transformation, so we would use the example of a cup emptied of all substance before it may contain new drink, or we ask you to consider a fresh-baked loaf of bread that is useless until it is broken, for in your young wholeness you were full of the unexamined and totally trusted Light and Love of the Creator that blows about children and makes them so special to the adults about them, but there is no learning in this untouched condition, and sometimes it is impossible for those within an illusion as dense as yours not to feel that it is cruel to be so broken by experience, yet brokenness is a necessary prelude to transformation, so whole and untouched you are finite, but broken you become infinitely full of possibility the potential for life that is new and vital. Oxal went on to say it is as though the illusion which you now enjoy is a kind of threshing machine, and it is inevitable that you shall come between the grinding wheels, and that you shall feel burst apart, so these times of your incarnational experience are the most pregnant with possibility for the acceleration of your spiritual evolution, for you have moved into an infinity when you are no longer closed, yet what we say rings of the impractical, and we realize that you seek not only that which is theoretical but that which may serve as an ethic that may inspire behavior which manifests that which you hold dear: service to others and Love, for there are many good qualities we could name for which you may be seeking inspiration, but your best quality is the willingness to be broken because that willingness is the willingness to learn, and all things in your illusion teach the lessons of Love since each time you are broken, you are being offered a new way to come to a new understanding of Love, but by this we do not mean that which you call love, but rather that which you call Logos, that Love which is creative and original, that Love which is the Creator, that Love which is all of us, for we, and you, and all that there is are the Creator, but you are the citizen of an illusion, and it is as though your fullness were a prison, so each time you face adversity, you escape that prison, and you are open to the transfiguration of another learning of Love. On January 12, 2008, Q’uo described the nature of transformation:

For transformation is a cycle. It is an inevitable cycle. You will transform. You shall become a new creature. The only question is whether or not you wish to accelerate the process of your own spiritual evolution. Those who are listening to these words and those who read them are those who wish to become more than they have been. That wish, in and of itself, will hasten the speed of change in your life. For by wishing to be transformed, and by being willing to be transformed, you make the space for being transformed.

Consequently, we would perhaps rather use the transformational model of the also much clichéd chambered nautilus, which outgrows its house and, therefore, enlarges its house, without ever leaving its house. Just in such a way do you enlarge your point of view as you move through these cocoon-like periods and emerge from them with the sense of having a new perspective which has created for you the self-perceived feeling of being a new creature. You continue to expand your awareness in a cyclical manner until such time as you pass from this environment through the gates of larger life, where you shall not lose a beat in continuing your spiritual evolution.

We do not say this simply because it is inevitable that experience shall cause discomfort and grief, although that is surely the nature of your illusion. We say this to attempt to inspire you to examine whatever faces you at this particular time, to find within it the seeds of Love where there was none before within your heart. As always, the best adjunct to experience for the seeker is daily meditation. It does not have to be a full-time job, as this instrument would say. A very few minutes of seeking in silence that still, small voice, if we may quote from one of the holy works, is sufficient to put you in contact with the infinity that you can otherwise receive only from the harsh trials of experience. For there is that within you, as we have said, that will aid you in coming to a new knowledge, an expanded knowledge of your own nature and of the nature of Love. Often there is great healing in such understanding, as that which no longer needed can fall away; as those bitter feelings disappear, for they are no longer needed; as dislike and prejudice disappears, for they are no longer needed. And then, once again, you become whole and you manifest to those about you that which has begun to come through you, that which is infinite, that which is Love.

In the inevitable cycle of experience, you shall again be broken, and the cycle turns again, offering you again and again the opportunity for new knowledge—or if you have refrained from learning the lesson given you previously, you may find yourself repeating one lesson again and again. Try as you may, you will not escape this lesson until it is learned. This is not a grim threat, my friends; this is the nature of your experience. It is our intent to give you encouragement so that you may welcome experience, so that you may, even in pain or grief or despair or loneliness welcome being broken, and look immediately for the Love that you have not allowed into this moment.

Then Oxal said we do not say this because it is inevitable that experience shall cause discomfort, although that is the nature of your illusion, but we say this to attempt to inspire you to examine whatever faces you at this time, to find within it the seeds of Love where there were none before within your heart, so the best addition to experience for the seeker is daily meditation, but it does not have to be a full-time job, for a few minutes of seeking in silence that still, small voice is sufficient to put you in contact with the infinity that you can receive only from the harsh trials of experience, for there is that within you that will aid you in coming to an expanded knowledge of your nature and of the nature of Love, yet often there is healing in such understanding, as that which is no longer needed can fall away, and as those bitter feelings disappear, and then you become whole, and you manifest to those about you that which has begun to come through you, that which is infinite, that which is Love. Oxal continued by saying in the inevitable cycle of experience, you shall be broken, and the cycle turns again, offering you the opportunity for new knowledge, or if you have refrained from learning the lesson given you previously, you may find yourself repeating one lesson, but try as you may, you will not escape this lesson until it is learned, but this is not a threat, for this is the nature of your experience, and it is our intent to give you encouragement so that you may welcome experience, so that you may, even in pain or loneliness, welcome being broken, and look immediately for the Love that you have not allowed into this moment. On January 26, 1991, Q’uo described the nature of Love:

When the experience of the one infinite Creator has been collected, reaped, and gathered, blessed, thanked, and honored, then a portion of the self is aware, in a way that it cannot express in words, of the nature of Love, of the Creator, and of the self. Then, this immediate, ineffable experience, which is not learning, but the result of learning, may be broken, opened, as infinite as it is, and offered as Love within the illusion, to the illusion itself, to those one meets within the illusion, and to the self.

What the paths are for is to deliver the relativistic self over to the worshipful, and open, and faithful heart. When that state has been achieved, even momentarily, by the seeking entity, the experience of unity with the infinite Creator is had, and stored, and remembered. It is at that point that all paths become one, just as all manifestations of Christed consciousness tell different stories, but in their essence are all one.

We shall pause for a moment that you may do this exercise at this moment. Open yourself at this moment that Love may sweep through you, sweep you clean and make you one with your experience. We pause. I am Oxal.

[Pause]

I am Oxal, and am again with this instrument. We would like to close through the one known as L1 if this instrument is not too fatigued. We shall offer the conditioning with the understanding that we do not wish to tax this instrument, and, therefore, the choice is certainly and always the instrument’s. We shall leave this instrument. I am Oxal.

(L1 channeling)

I am Oxal. I am now with this instrument. My friends, it is our desire not to tax your patience with wordy sermons or dry discourses, but rather to share with those present that which we recognize to be an essential part of the process through which enlightenment is attained. Therefore, we thank those present for their patience and commend your dedication, and perseverance, and seeking. We are known to those present as Oxal. Adonai, my friends. Adonai vasu borragus.

(L1 channeling)

I am Latwii, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and Light of the infinite Creator, and wish to offer our service at this point in attempting to answer any questions that those present might deem fit to pose. Are there any questions at this time?

Carla: Well, since nobody’s jumped in, I’ll go back to the venerable L2’s list of ad hoc questions, if it’s all right with you, Latwii. This is a short one for a change. Number five: “Is it true that the essence of Love is compassion? How can there be explication of the ways whereby compassion steers between the twin distortions of being patronizingly maudlin, so to speak, on the one hand, and being too sternly judgmental on the other?”

I am Latwii. We are aware of your question. My brother, compassion is what may be described as the distortion of that which we term Love. We would further observe that compassion is characterized by the distortion of judgment where compassion is quite often Love given upon the establishment of certain prior conditions. If we might offer an example, the individual who passes an other self upon a thoroughfare might observe that the other self seems somewhat poorly attired or perhaps the physical vehicle of the other self does not appear to be well-nourished. This has the characteristic of an observation, however, rather than an outpouring of that which you term Love. The viewer, however, when made aware that certain circumstances such as the loss of numerous loved ones, and the entirety of one’s physical possessions resulted in the other self’s dire appearance, might be overwhelmed with sudden feelings of that distortion of Love which you term compassion.

As one might observe, the compassion or distorted Love was only offered upon the basis of evaluation of appropriateness by the one extending that which you call compassion. The distortion of Love that you refer to as compassion, then, may be characterized by that individual who offers such distorted Love as falling within certain realms of appropriateness. And, indeed, it is the limitations which you, my brother, have suggested that are examples of the range within which such distorted Love may be offered.

We would, in closing, observe that the offering of Love to any other self for reasons resultant of judgment is still an extension of Love and is therefore commendable. However, one who would be an adept must recognize that the extension of Love is a form of service to one’s other selves, and therefore does not require precondition.

May we answer you further?

Carla: Just for my own benefit, let me try to sum up what you said in a sentence or two. What you said was that compassion, since it’s run through a person who feels it personally for another person, involves judgment, of necessity, since that’s the way people’s minds work. But compassion as an ideal has no precondition, but is given in total freedom. Therefore, we as human beings never quite reach the perfection of that distortion of Love known as compassion. Is that what you’re saying?

I am Latwii. My sister, we agree with your explanation with one variation. We would emphasize that the use of the word “Love’’ rather than “compassion” in the latter portion of your statements would be more appropriate, for it is Love, itself, which ideally should be given freely rather than the distortion of Love known as compassion.

May we answer you further?

Carla: Yeah. The Live Aid concert brought a wave of what I would call compassion rather than Love, that is, pity, and a desire to help a lot of people that were hungry that nobody knew. How does one make the step from compassion based on need to unconditional Love, personal Love, of strangers, billions of them, whom one does not know and can never know? Or is this even recommended?

I am Latwii. My sister, we would attempt to answer your question simply by extending the observation that the numerous strangers cited in your question are actually numerous other selves, and for that reason one might observe that there is a reluctance on the part of the individual to Love himself or herself through the extension of Love to all other selves, in essence a reluctance to Love oneself in totality. For this reason, we would offer the suggestion that to learn to accept and Love oneself in its facets which are both attractive and unattractive is a step toward the loving of those same characteristics, both attractive and unattractive, in one’s other selves. For to accept oneself is to learn to accept one’s other self sufficiently that the extension of Love to the degree which you described becomes possible. The recognition must occur that each other self is in essence identical to one’s own self and the accomplishment of Loving these numerous other selves is an extension of that recognition.

It is becoming difficult for this instrument to continue to maintain contact, and we would suggest that should further questions be desired, that another instrument offer to serve on this instrument’s behalf. We are known to you as Latwii.

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and we are with this instrument whom we thank for offering a voice for us to utilize once again. Is there further query?

L1: Yes, Latwii. I’m disturbed as to the potential accuracy of what I was channeling. Would you make any corrections that are necessary through correction or repetition of the questions that were offered while I was channeling?

I am Latwii, and am aware of your query and your concern, my brother. We would not attempt to add or subtract from any concept which you utilized, and which we were able to utilize using your mind and its contents. We are most appreciative of each instrument’s desire to be of service, for though our message is always and ever the same, there is much to be gained in variety of expression when we are able to utilize numerous instruments in speaking this one message. Therefore, we should not feel any concern to alter our message which was transmitted through your instrument but would simply thank you for your service and remind you that as you open yourself in service and give up your own small will that you may serve a greater will, that you then must needs accept that which proceeds through your instrument and allow its movement through your instrument in as free a manner as possible without the overconcern as to whether the task has been accomplished in one fashion or another. To put it more simply, my brother, do not be so judgmental upon your own abilities. We thank you for your service.

May we answer further, my brother?

L1: No. Thank you for your comfort.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, as always. Is there another query?

N: May I ask for some further explanation? Are you in essence saying, Latwii, that we have many problems within ourselves which we can’t accept, and which is true, of course, but when we have problems with others which we seem to want to accept, yet can’t rationalize Love as an extension of the one infinite Creator, then this is again failings within our feelings for ourselves?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my brother. We shall attempt clarification. When one sees any other being and has any of the range of emotions that are possible within your human condition, one may assume that the emotion is felt for the other self because that emotion has some impact or reference to the self. You are in essence a conglomeration or unit of learning, this is to say, you have your unique character; you have distortions of one sort or another that give you your strengths, your variety, and your uniqueness. You will feel in one manner or another about yourself or some portion of yourself according to the desire you have to learn in that area and your own conscious or subconscious assessment of your success in so learning. This process of learning and judging the self is one which is always ongoing, yet is usually not as conscious in the earlier portions of one’s incarnation as it is in the latter portions. Therefore, as you become more and more aware of your own self and come to know that self, a portion of this awareness is gained by seeing your feelings for yourself reflected by others to you as your feelings for others. Thus, the mirroring effect of other selves shows you your attitude towards a portion of your own being. As you become more and more aware that this is the case, the process then is accelerated.

N asked: “Are you in essence saying, Latwii, that we have many problems within ourselves which we can’t accept, and which is true, of course, but when we have problems with others which we seem to want to accept, yet can’t rationalize Love as an extension of the one infinite Creator, then this is again failings within our feelings for ourselves?” Latwii replied when one sees any other being and has any of the range of emotions that are possible within your human condition, one may assume that the emotion is felt for the other self because that emotion has some reference to the self, for you are a unit of learning, and  you have unique distortions of one sort or another that give you your strengths and your variety, and your uniqueness, so you will feel about yourself according to the desire you have to learn in that area and your own conscious or subconscious assessment of your success in learning, for this process of learning and judging the self is one which is always ongoing, yet is usually not as conscious in the earlier portions of one’s incarnation as it is in the latter portion, and as you become more aware of your self and come to know that self, a portion of this awareness is gained by seeing your feelings for yourself reflected by others to you as your feelings for others, so the mirroring effect of other selves shows you your attitude towards a portion of your own being, yet as you become more aware that this is the case, the process then is accelerated. On July 28, 1985, Latwii described the mirroring effect:

These male and female qualities, then, being expressed within this mated relationship allow the mirroring effect to occur with greater intensity and frequency. This mirroring effect is the effect that occurs when one sees within another self those characteristics that are loved and accepted and those that are not loved and not accepted. In truth, these are the characteristics of the self which are loved or not loved, and are those characteristics which outline the lessons and services that the entity has designed into the life pattern from the pre-incarnational state.

May we answer you further, my brother?

N: No, thank you. I think that was good.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, my brother. Is there another query?…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Jim channeling)

I am Latwii, and we are with this instrument once again, now that the mechanical duties have been completed. May we again ask if there might be another query?

Carla: I am interested in the message tonight because it was sort of paradoxical, and I wondered if you could make your own comment on the subject. Having experienced what was to me definitely the biggest disaster of my life recently, I have felt more imprisoned by the situation than freed by the situation. And when I have been in the past much more unbroken and whole I have felt freer, whereas the message stated that when you are whole you are in prison. Could you offer comment on this basic theme to clarify Oxal’s thoughts for me?

I am Latwii and am aware of your query, my sister. We shall be honored to attempt clarification of this message which our brothers and sisters of Oxal were so inspiring in the presentation of this evening. As you feel the feeling which you have described as wholeness, you are as the harvester who has plucked the fruit from the tree and enjoys the sweetness of the fruit which has taken long to produce. It is a milestone, shall we say, upon which you stand and which signifies a portion of a journey which has been completed. Yet, as all journeys of which we are aware in the seeking of truth are of an infinite nature, at some point there will be the setting out upon another portion of this journey of seeking. For as you have plucked the fruit of the previous journey and are nourished by it, there comes a time when the pilgrim, which each is, desires to move yet further upon the journey of seeking the truth. There is a price for each step. There is what often seems difficulties both small and large, both trivial and tragic, which will confront the doughty seeker.

If there were no such difficulties, if there were no price for the steps taken upon this journey, the lessons could not be learned, for there would be no weight against which to test and strengthen the spiritual muscle. For those who have gained much of the strength through many of the trials, further testing will require added weight and difficulty, shall we say. Within your illusion, such difficulties are not often seen for the great opportunity for growth which they offer. This is not surprising, my sister, for little within your illusion is seen for what it truly is. Much of sight rests upon the surface of things, the heart seldom seen. Yet it is our suggestion to you that within all such difficulties, the opportunities for learning and experiencing the Love of the one Creator are infinite.

Carla asked: “Having experienced what was to me definitely the biggest disaster of my life recently, I have felt more imprisoned by the situation than freed by the situation. And when I have been in the past much more unbroken and whole I have felt freer, whereas the message stated that when you are whole you are in prison. Could you offer comment on this basic theme to clarify Oxal’s thoughts for me?” Latwii replied as you feel the feeling which you have described as wholeness, you are as the harvester who has plucked the fruit from the tree and enjoys the sweetness of the fruit which has taken long to produce, and it is a milestone upon which you stand and which signifies a portion of a journey which has been completed, yet as all journeys of which we are aware in the seeking of truth are of an infinite nature, at some point there will be the setting out upon another portion of this journey of seeking, for as you have plucked the fruit of the previous journey and are nourished by it, there comes a time when the pilgrim desires to move further upon the journey of seeking the truth, but there is a price for each step, for there are difficulties both trivial and tragic which will confront the doughty seeker.

On January 11, 1981, Laitos described what it is like to experience the Love of the one Creator:

Each of you in your daily lives encounters the Creator in every endeavor in which you enter. Each moment the opportunity is made for you to travel yet one step closer to experiencing the Love of the Creator, for each moment holds a message, ere it would not exist. The message, disguised in infinite ways, speaks the song of Love, the lesson of life. Listen closely, my friends, for the Creator sings to you in each moment and speaks the infinite languages of life to your hearts. We of Laitos have heard this song and would share what we can of its melody and message with those of your people who desire to hear such music.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you. That was very helpful.

I am Latwii, and we thank you, my sister. Is there another query?

[Pause]

I am Latwii, and we are honored to have been able to speak a few words this evening to this assembled group. We have enjoyed your vibrations and your queries. We thank you with a whole and joyful heart for requesting our humble presence. We also wish to remind each that we are but fallible seekers upon the same path of seeking which you now find your feet. Take that which we have given that has value in your own journey and leave behind that which has none. We are with you upon your request in your meditations to aid in their deepening and we are eager to join you again in your “Sunday night meetings,” as they have come to be called. We thank you and we bless all and leave all in the Love and in the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are those of Latwii. Adonai. Adonai vasu borragus.

(Carla channeling)

I Yadda. I greet you in Love and Light of infinite Creator. We say to one known as J, “Howdy.” We come as you call, but you must understand, we have to be very brief, for the seats become hard when the second side of the tape has been turned over, and we do not wish to make the seats of your couches and chairs any more hard for you.

We only wish to bring you a single thought, and to do that we ask you to come with us in your mind, to leave this room and move into the night sky, far and far away, farther than you can see, farther than your telescopes can see, until you are no more in space and time, until you are truly within the Creator. We ask you to feel the Light that is so bright, that shines not from a single source, but everywhere, from everywhere and to everywhere at once. There is no night; there is no sky, there is no separation—“sepa-r-ation”—we are learning to say our R’s, are we not, aha?! We ask you now to rook—to look back at yourself and ask what lies before you.

What’s your problem? We ask you! Detach yourself. Do you have a problem with your reputation? Forget it. Reputations are not important! Do you think ill of yourself? Forget it—what do you know? Do others think ill of you? Forget it—what do they know? Do you think that you are not as good as others think you are? Forget it—what do you know? Try to live in the Light, my friends. Do not reach for it—allow it to fill you, for with every breath you are infused with that Light, that Love and that energy, and you are a powerful being.

So, get on with it. With no fear, but with a will to serve, to Love, and to be in the Light. And that Light is that which we leave you in, having no other possibility, for that is all that there is. The rest is confusion and dreaming. We wish you happy dreams, and we wish you moments of lucidity—lucidity in which you see beyond your dream and beyond your darkness, beyond those few moments when you wear your funny costume of physical flesh and see the essential you which not only dwells in Light, but is Light.

We known to you as Yadda. That is not important, either. We, however, Love you. Adonai. Adonai. We leave you in the Love and in the Light of the One Who Is All.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “This is truth, but you can make it truth in your experience only by applying it to every appearance that faces you—on the street, at home, in school, in the factory, or in the market—always keeping before you the truth that unconditioned mind is formed as unconditioned effect.

Spiritual wisdom must be made tangible. It must bear fruit in our earthly experience, but this it cannot do if we do not become consciously aware of it. All the undiscovered inventions, sciences, and arts of the future exist in the mind, but they can come through into expression only in the degree that an individual opens their consciousness to them. So, with esoteric truth which remains something hidden until it takes form in consciousness, and then it produces an effect in the outer world.

As you know the truth, this truth will free you from all carnal mind conditions, which means all situations or circumstances conditioned by good or evil. Every bit of truth realized will help to set you free from some phase of good or evil until you attain the fulness of the spiritual Light in which Spirit through the instrument of the unconditioned mind expresses Itself as your being, body, business, home, and relationships,

But before this can happen there must be a preparation in which we abide in the Word and let the Word abide in us, in which we consciously dwell in the Word. After the experience of illumination, however, life is lived without effort and without taking thought.

Lif is unconditioned: there is no such thing as a new life or an old life, nor is there a diseased or a healthy life. Do not try to condition life! Do not try to make it good or evil! Do not try to have it up or down, longer, or shorter, for there is no such thing. If we do not accept the belief of good and evil our life is unconditioned pure spiritual being.

The tempter, the belief of good and evil, stands before us, as it did before Adam and Eve, only now we understand that life and mind are unconditioned, and we turn on the tempter as did Jesus: “Get thee behind me, Satan. I accept no conditioning of my life. My mind life, Soul, and body are unconditioned, unfettered, and free knowing neither good nor evil, knowing only God-being, pure Spirit, pure Soul, pure Life.”

This morning I went on an errand run to Thieneman’s Nursery where I bought a bale of pine straw, 5 more Caladium Flowers,  1 tray of Begonieas, and 1 tray of Petunias. My second stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I dropped off a prescription and picked up a prescription.

This afternoon I transplanted the 5 Caladium into the top layer of the Flower Garden in the Middle of the Moss Garden. And then I planted two flats of red and white flowers, that didn’t have a label on them around the second layer of the Flower Garden. Then I replaced the netting over the Flower Garden to protect the flowers from the deer.

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

April 21

Lovers Before The Holy Spirit

I am of the principle of the full consciousness of Love, and I greet you as the living Word of the most high.

Know ye that men and women alike are as lovers before the Holy Spirit, to be impregnated with the divine, that, within illusion, manifestation of the creative renewal of the infinite Love of Jesus the Christ may take place.

Sexuality is seen only as its gross aspect by most who live the earthly life. Yet there is enormous polarity betwixt the pilgrim and the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is not nurturer alone but impregnator, that each pilgrim may be full of that which is born of the Spirit and not of flesh.

Know that you may carry the living Word, the Christed consciousness that was, and is, and always shall be with and in Jesus the Christ. And embrace, as lovers, that life-giving Love of the heavenly seeds within.

We leave you in the expectant peace of all who await the spirit of the living Christ, 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. 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 Yadda and L/Leema channelings for this session come from July 14, 1985:

(Carla channeling)

I am Yadda. I great you in Love and Light of infinite Creator. We argue with this instrument. We say, “We want to come and say ‘Hi’ to our friend, J,” and we could not do it at first because this instrument say, “Oh, but the big one is yet to come, don’t do this now,” and we say, “No, no; we just want to say ‘Hello.’” So, the instrument say, “Okay,” and here we are.

The expression of joy that takes place when souls band together in Love, not of earthly things but of metaphysical, is tremendous, and this expression of joy is with us now. Our gratitude knows no bounds, and we thank you for allowing us to be a part of session today. We shall be silent now, silent but joyful, and so very, very much blessed to share this time with you. We are not blessed because you are such wonderful characters, because of your amazing personalities, or your reputations; we are not interested in that part of you. This is not the local train here; we are talking about long-distance traveling. We are joyful because of the long-distance traveler that is your consciousness. How beautiful it is; how beautiful and perfect you are, and how much joy there is to share in an infinitely joyful creation.

We leave this instrument now, full of the Love and the Light of infinite Creator. I Yadda. Farewell. Farewell.

(Carla channeling)

I am L/Leema, and I greet you, my friends, in the Love and in the infinite Light of the one Creator. We apologize for the delay in our speaking with you. However, we ran into what we consider to be a noteworthy problem which we wish to share with you, for it bears upon each of your spiritual endeavors at this time to a certain extent.

When this instrument challenged us, we responded by saying, “Yes, my child, we do come in the name of Christ.” This is the same answer that this instrument is used to receiving from the one known to you as Hatonn. Therefore, the instrument repeated the challenge, and hearing the answer once again, asked who we were. We projected the vibration that is our signature for name. You would think of it more as a musical tone, with overtones and undertones, than a word. As you may have noticed from our need to scan the instrument from time to time to select an appropriate word, we do not use words. Therefore, there was some delay while we established that we were indeed known to this group as L/Leema. These and other spiritual metaphysical and religious names are, for the most part, intended to convey some small idea of the vibration that is who we are. However, those of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator do not actually have names as you know them, as they are not necessary unless one is unable to speak mind to mind and to recognize musical tones.

We shall now address the question at hand which has to do with values and virtues, what they are, what effect they have upon you, what effect you have practicing that which you come to, shall we say, understand. Perhaps the strongest desire within the mundane world is the desire to live and be loved, to appreciate and to be appreciated. You will find two things to be true about this characteristic of your people. Firstly, those who use their lives pleasing others to the exclusion of knowing the self have gained in the eyes of your world, but have lost the power to make the choice. The second thing that is true about the need to Love and the need to be appreciated is that the societal values change, and, therefore, the actual polarity of your intended action is various. Sometimes you polarize well, and sometimes there is a negative polarization as you move away from the seeking of truth.

Now, we know what values are not, that is, values are not imposed from without. It is your birthright and as a conscious seeker your responsibility to seek in every way possible to know yourself. To put it another way, it is your responsibility to seek the Creator in yourself and in all things. Values, then, come from within. However, as a mundane personality, the seeking student is precisely as fallible as the person who previously told the seeker what to do in order to be loved. Therefore, we eliminate also from value the mundane considerations of the self for the self. The question is, what is left to form value? That is a question worth asking. If you have been impressed with feelings, energies and disciplines that seem to you to be of aid in a metaphysical manner, then you have been given the gift of learning. In the process of being given this gift, you have given something up. In fact, the only way that we know of—and remember we are fallible also—to have access to a clearer knowledge of what has value is to lose the self. The more of yourself that you lose, the more of the selfhood that may be overtaken and imbued with that greater self that some call the higher self, and others call the Creator within.

In this session L/Leema spoke about the concepts of value and virtue. They began by saying we shall now address the question at hand which has to do with values and virtues, what they are, what effect they have upon you, what effect you have practicing that which you come to understand, so the strongest desire within the mundane world is the desire to live and be loved, to appreciate and to be appreciated, and you will find two things to be true about this characteristic of your people, so, firstly, those who use their lives pleasing others to the exclusion of knowing the self have gained in the eyes of your world, but have lost the power to make the choice, and the second thing that is true about the need to Love and the need to be appreciated is that the societal values change, and the polarity of your intended action is various, for sometimes you polarize well, and sometimes there is a negative polarization as you move away from the seeking of truth. L/Leema went on to say we know that values are not imposed from without, and it is your birthright and, as a conscious seeker, your responsibility to seek in every way possible to know yourself, or to put it another way, it is your responsibility to seek the Creator in yourself and in all things, so values come from within, but as a mundane personality, the seeking student is as fallible as the person who previously told the seeker what to do in order to be loved, so we eliminate from value the mundane considerations of the self for the self, so: “The question is, what is left to form value?” L/Leema said if you have been impressed with feelings, energies, and disciplines that seem to you to be of aid in a metaphysical manner, then you have been given the gift of learning, and in the process of being given this gift, you have given something up, for the only way that we know of—and remember we are fallible also—to have access to a clearer knowledge of what has value is to lose the self, for the more of yourself that you lose, the more of the selfhood that may be imbued with the higher self or the Creator within. On June 6, 1982, Hatonn described the value of losing the self:

Manifestations of Love are far more successfully accomplished when contact is remembered with an infinite source of that which supplies all manifestations. You within the illusion will run completely out of the supply of what you call love, patience, kindness. It would be unnatural were it any other way. The Creator within you is a fountainhead of Love, for this is the very thought which created all that is in manifestation.

Find your first contact with this consciousness, and you will find a new level to seek in meditation. From this level, my friends, you may go on to do many things. You may seek to lose the self in an ocean of infinite Love, so that you cease being the person with a heart and a mind and become one with the Creator. In this mode, you become a creature almost incapable of judgment. There is no judgment of fellow beings or of yourself at this stage of meditation. This is a great healer of yourself and of others. And on those occasions, rare though they might be, when you are capable of reaching this particular configuration of mind, that concern which you may have brought into meditation is in contact with the greatest healing power in the universe.

Thusly, that which has value is that which comes from within, that which has been paid for by the surrender of the smaller self, and that which is let loose from you in a manner completely free to the world about you, whether it be one person, many people, or simply the environment in which you have your being. Your state of mind when you are in the impersonal self has innate value which is the highest value of which we are aware, of which you are capable of achieving in your third density at this particular stage of your development. Indeed, in a more and more refined way, this is all any particle of consciousness has to offer—its birthright. That birthright is nothing less than a single and original Thought before which there was no thought. That Thought, that Creator of all that there is, is Love, guided only by free will. Examine yourself at this moment. What in you is of value? In your heart, you know. There is that within you that is utterly priceless. It is surrounded by a great deal of illusion, and you are seeking to pierce the veil of that illusion.

As to virtues, we find that the list is long and well-known. Much can be quoted from holy books about virtue. The virtues always include patience, hope, charity, spiritual seeking, politeness to others, a cheerful attitude, and so forth and so on. The list of seeming virtues is endless. But, like a skin disease, which also seems endless when one is a—we scan—teenager, so these virtues come and go. They are only skin deep. It is not that the list is wrong, it is that the culture which you now enjoy and experience believes in inculcating virtue from the outside inward, working from a list of rules: do this, but don’t do that, and while you’re at it, don’t do that either, and there is a third, and a fourth, and fifth thing and so forth. This is not true of virtue, although there is the potential always for significant polarization in one who desires so utterly to bring pleasure to those around it that it is willing to assume the various postures which are designed to be most appropriate and acceptable.

L/Leema continued by saying that which has value is that which comes from within, and that which is let loose from you in a manner free to the world about you, whether it be one person, many people, or the environment in which you have your being, for your state of mind when you are in the impersonal self has value which is the highest value of which we are aware, of which you are capable of achieving in your third density at this particular stage of your development, yet in a more refined way, this is all any particle of consciousness has to offer—its birthright, and that birthright is an original Thought before which there was no thought, so that Thought is the Creator of all that there is, Love, guided only by free will, so examine yourself at this moment, for in your heart, you know there is that within you that is priceless, but it is surrounded by a great deal of illusion, and you are seeking to pierce the veil of that illusion. Now L/Leema said as to virtues, we find that the list is long and well-known, and much can be quoted from holy books about virtues that include patience, hope, charity, and spiritual seeking, but like a skin disease, which also seems endless when one is a teenager, so these virtues come and go, yet it is not that the list is wrong, it is that the culture which you now enjoy believes in adding virtue from the outside inward, working from a list of rules: do this, but don’t do that, and while you’re at it, don’t do that either, and there is a third, and a fourth, and fifth thing and so forth, but this is not true of virtue, although there is the potential always for polarization in one who desires to bring pleasure to those around it, so that it is willing to assume the postures which are designed to be appropriate. On September 30, 1990, Q’uo spoke of the nature of virtue:

As you are aware, there is great virtue in this kind of pattern of behavior, for it continually stretches the limitations and strengthens the will in so doing. There is also, as you have mentioned, great virtue in being able to accept one’s limitations, accept that which cannot be changed, and look for the door that is opened when another is closed. It is well that one in your position develops the ability for such acceptance, for the limitations, as it is well known to you, are relatively set.

True virtue is a natural overflowing and outpouring of that contact with Love which you keep fresh by meditation, prayer, contemplation, and the analysis of your thoughts, each in a degree to which each aids you personally. Virtue is, in essence, a state of being rather than a process of doing. As with value, the one who is virtuous is first the sufferer, for it is painful to relinquish the amount of control over one’s incarnational experience necessary to allow the principle of seeking to work. The principle of seeking is, to the best of our knowledge, infallible. There are no occasions when it does not work. The time frames may change from experience to experience, but if you seek, you will find. And if you seek the truth, you find yourself surrendering more and more of that which you may have considered very special about yourself in order to get on with the seeking of something called Love, something that is impersonal, and yet something that, once touched, seems worth more than all the precious booty one can imagine, whether that treasure be fame, fortune, power, success or knowledge.

In the Light of the tabernacle which you once established, near the fire of your own holy ground, much is burned away that you would cherish. That which must be relinquished is different for each unique seeker. It is not for us to describe stumbling blocks; we who describe them may put one before you. It is enough to say that the stumbling blocks are in the self, and when it is recognized that there is something that is keeping you from the opportunity for contact with intelligent infinity, there is value and virtue in the decision to surrendering whatever it may, whatever part of your personality it may be.

Now L/Leema said true virtue is a natural outpouring of that contact with Love which you keep fresh by meditation, prayer, contemplation, and the analysis of your thoughts, each in a degree to which each aids you, and virtue is a state of being rather than a process of doing, so as with value, the one who is virtuous is first the sufferer, for it is painful to relinquish the amount of control over one’s incarnational experience necessary to allow the principle of seeking to work, for the principle of seeking is infallible, but there are no occasions when it does not work, yet the time frames may change from experience to experience, but if you seek, you will find, and if you seek the truth, you find yourself surrendering more of that which you may have considered special about yourself in order to get on with the seeking of Love, something that is impersonal, and yet something that, once touched, seems worth more than all the precious booty one can imagine, whether that treasure be fortune, power, or knowledge. L/Leema went on to say in the Light of the tabernacle which you once established, near the fire of your holy ground, much is burned away that you would cherish, for that which must be relinquished is different for each seeker, but it is not for us to describe stumbling blocks, and it is enough to say that the stumbling blocks are in the self, so when it is recognized that there is something that is keeping you from the opportunity for contact with intelligent infinity, there is virtue in the decision to surrendering whatever part of your personality it may be. On September 30, 1990, Q’uo spoke of the concept of virtue:

However, we shall comment by suggesting that you have learned well a part of your personality structure is that which moves against limitation and exercises the will and the faith mightily in this effort. As you are aware, there is great virtue in this kind of pattern of behavior, for it continually stretches the limitations and strengthens the will in so doing. There is also, as you have mentioned, great virtue in being able to accept one’s limitations, accept that which cannot be changed, and look for the door that is opened when another is closed. It is well that one in your position develops the ability for such acceptance, for the limitations, as it is well known to you, are relatively set.

The balance between these two modes of being is that balance which, when finally struck, will allow the greatest amount and quality of growth within your life pattern. It is the nature of this balance which is best discovered through your own efforts. However, we shall say that you have done well in your diligent pursuit of this balance, and we would counsel a quieting of concerns to a large degree in this area.

Each of you has seen transcendent beings, beings that were radiant, that glowed from within, and each has thought, “What a wonderful thing it must be to be so virtuous.” The wonderful thing is, subjectively, that there is contact with Love. That contact is so powerful that it creates value and manifests it in a clear channel. And what is that value, my friends? That value may be seen in the smile that lightens someone’s day, a soft answer to a hard question, an insightful question to one who is muddled. What is value, my friends? Value is that which adds to someone or to someone’s experience. What is the nature of addition? The nature of spiritual addition is that it is infinite. You do not have infinite powers as a mundane personality.

Thus, true value is the spiritual. You are a channel for it, and it comes through you. Try to do the valuable thing on your own recognizance, and you will find yourself in deep trouble, for each entity has designed situations, both of a general and a specific nature, which are for the sole purpose of learning a lesson you feel as your higher self before birth that you need to learn in a more fastidious or complete way. Any attempt to seek healing, the giving of Love, the giving of any value at all, without first immersing the self within the greater self of the creation, is going to run into one of the situations which you have planned each of you for yourself, situations that will say, sometimes rather clearly, you are a limited being as long as you do not seek Love. What has virtue? The seeking of truth. What is the nature of truth? To use a sadly overused word, love. What has virtue? That which has virtue is that which is intended to manifest, and to praise, and bear witness to the Creator and the infinite Love, the infinite joy and the infinite peace in which we are created and have our being.

L/Leema continued by saying each of you has seen transcendent beings that were radiant, that glowed from within, and each has thought, “What a wonderful thing it must be to be so virtuous,” and the wonderful thing is that there is contact with Love, and that contact is so powerful that it creates value and manifests it in a clear channel, so that value may be seen in the smile that lightens someone’s day, a soft answer to a hard question, an insightful question to one who is muddled, for value is that which adds to someone’s experience, and the nature of spiritual addition is that it is infinite, but you do not have infinite powers as a mundane personality. L/Leema continued by saying true value is spiritual, and you are a channel for it, so try to do the valuable thing with your own abilities, and you will find yourself in trouble, for each entity has designed situations, both of a general and a specific nature, which are for the purpose of learning a lesson you feel, as your higher self before birth, that you need to learn in a more complete way, for any attempt to seek healing, the giving of Love, the giving of any value at all, without first immersing the self within the Greater Self of the creation, is going to run into one of the situations which you have planned for yourself, situations that will say that you are a limited being as long as you do not seek Love, so virtue is the seeking of truth, and Love is the nature of truth, and that which has virtue is that which is intended to manifest, to praise, and to bear witness to the Creator and the infinite Love, the infinite joy and the infinite peace in which we are created and have our being. On March 11, 2023, Q’uo spoke of the nature of the infinite Love of the Creator:

The heart is, indeed, the most central chakra or energy center within the human body and within the energy body. That is the measure of an entity’s spiritual evolution. The heart is that which can be opened to the infinite Love of the One Creator that made the universe by the power of Love and each entity and substance and quality and plant by the power of Love. The power of Love is a kind of medicine, shall we say, of the spiritual nature. It is that which sustains your spiritual life. The open heart is that which can become an enlivener to those around you as you shine your love and light and unconditional Love to those around you. When you experience what you have called the broken heart, it is more of an emotional experience of the mind which is connected to the heart in a way that steps down the ability of the heart to heal in a way that can be utilized by anyone who seeks to heal the broken heart. That is to say that the mind is more of the quality of the being that feels the brokenness of the heart, when actually the heart is that which cannot actually be broken, for it is your connection to the Infinite Creator.

We realize that there are those with children. To be of value to one’s children is an especially challenging task. And yet, the rules hold true. When you, each of you, interact with the child, attempt to make even more room than usual for that great channel of Love, for while you are channeling that Love, you will know what to say; you will feel strongly about what will aid and what will discipline helpfully. Perhaps most fundamentally the aid of children that is of value to the greatest extent is that aid which involves familiarizing your child with your own understanding of your own nature. Let there be a place for meditation in your dwelling, and let meditation be an accepted part of the day, for this is the grounding for you and for all. The child learns first by example.

We do not suggest that your learning be made public, for, indeed, each of us learns within. We only suggest that the process of going to your private place and meditating, or contemplating, or praying be made a normal and, from the parent’s point of view, necessary portion of the daily activity. This will aid children greatly in grasping the process in their turn of becoming an impersonal channel for the infinitely personal compassion and wisdom of the one Creator. We fear we have exceeded our time limit but hope we have given you enough to think about. It is indeed a tremendous pleasure to be able to speak to you and to be able to use this instrument, and we so appreciate your taking our suggestion and forming the group question, that this instrument may be in no danger whatsoever because of the question and answer format, which is not helpful for this instrument at this time. Rather than…

Now L/Leema said we realize that there are those with children, and to be of value to one’s children is a challenging task, yet the rules hold true, so when each of you interacts with the child, attempt to make more room than usual for that channel of Love, for while you are channeling that Love you will know what to say, and you will feel strongly about what will aid and what will discipline helpfully, but the aid of children that is of value to the greatest extent is that aid which involves familiarizing your child with your understanding of your nature, so let there be a place for meditation in your dwelling, and let meditation be an accepted part of the day, for this is the grounding for you and for all since the child learns first by example. L/Leema went on to say we do not suggest that your learning be made public, for each of us learns within, so we only suggest that the process of going to your private place and meditating, or contemplating, or praying be made a normal and, from the parent’s point of view, necessary portion of the daily activity, for this will aid children in grasping the process in their turn of becoming an impersonal channel for the infinitely personal compassion and wisdom of the one Creator, but we fear we have exceeded our time limit but hope we have given you enough to think about, for it is a pleasure to be able to speak to you and to be able to use this instrument, and we appreciate your taking our suggestion and forming the group question, that this instrument may be in no danger because of the question and answer format, which is not helpful for this instrument at this time. On June 2, 1985, L/Leema explained why they could not use the question and answer format with Carla:

It is a pure delight to us that you have in your discussion this evening asked for information on a certain subject, that being the only way we may channel answers through this instrument for this instrument is not allowed, nor should she be, to use the question and answer format, lest this instrument move into that which you call the trance state.

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Carla channeling)

Rather than closing, we are going to attempt to transfer this contact to the one known as Jim. It is an experiment and may not work. This instrument may prefer to work with those of Latwii to the exclusion of working with us. Therefore, we offer this instrument the choice and would at this time offer the transfer to the one known as Jim. We leave this instrument. I am L/Leema.

(Jim channeling)

I am L/Leema, and we are happy to greet you through this instrument. Again, we greet you in Love and Light. We have offered the opportunity of the transfer of our contact in order that we might attempt any further queries which any within this group might have left for the evening. May we serve in that capacity with another query?

Carla: If nobody else has one, while I’m pulling my cramp out of my big toe, I would ask one written by L. It’s his number three, and I will read it to you whole and let you chop it up later or have it read in any way that you would like it read.

The question reads: “Love is the paramount truth. This becomes clear in time and under various lights to all diligent students and seekers after truth. Consciousness is the essence of all things. This also comes to be literally felt as truth under various lights by all such also. Love expresses into a myriad hierarchy of consciousness which by sufficient analysis/devotion resolves into a single non-hierarchical consciousness. Are these statements correct?”

I am L/Leema, and we scan again the statements for their correctness. We find that with these particular statements, we view that which is the perception of a diligent seeker. The perception of any diligent seeker is correct in respect to that seeker. Each who seeks what may be called truth and finds any manifestation of that truth which may be called Love will discover these portions of truth in a manner which is consummate with that seeker’s nature. Each entity and portion of the Creator is an unique portion. Though all seek the same central truths, each approaches this truth from a somewhat different angle than does any other seeker. Therefore, though there will be many similarities in truths found by diligent seekers, there will always be those unique qualities that permit each seeker its identity. As this identity is developed to such an extent that it may become fully one with that which it seeks, it then may be given up in larger and larger portion in order that that unity may be fully realized, thus the great cycle of evolution completes itself within each portion of the one Creator. At the heart of all creation is that quality called Love. It enables and ennobles each portion of the creation. All are moved by its power, yet each perceives it differently until there is no perception and only identity. Then all perceive as one.

Carla asked a question for L: “Love is the paramount truth. This becomes clear in time and under various lights to all diligent students and seekers after truth. Consciousness is the essence of all things. This also comes to be literally felt as truth under various lights by all. Love expresses into a myriad hierarchy of consciousness which by sufficient analysis/devotion resolves into a single non-hierarchical consciousness. Are these statements correct?” L/Leema replied we find that with these statements, we view that which is the perception of a diligent seeker, and the perception of any seeker is correct in respect to that seeker, and each who seeks the truth and finds any manifestation of that truth called Love will discover these portions of truth in a manner which matches that seeker’s nature, for each entity and portion of the Creator is an unique portion, yet all seek the same truths, and each approaches this truth from a different angle than does any other seeker, so though there will be similarities in truths found by diligent seekers, there will always be those unique qualities that permit each seeker its identity, for as this identity is developed in a way that it may become one with that which it seeks, it then may be given up in a larger way in order that unity may be realized as the cycle of evolution completes itself within each portion of the Creator, for at the heart of all creation is Love that enables and ennobles each portion of the creation, for all are moved by its power, yet each perceives it differently until there is no perception and only identity, and then all perceive as one. On May 15, 1983, Latwii said the heart of all creation is Love:

As you know, the cycle which is now ending upon this planet is very close at hand and its transformation has not been what you might call smooth for many upon this planet have had difficulty in realizing the Love that exists in each moment, each situation, and each entity. Therefore, the seeming inharmonious expression or perception in the mirror has been experienced by many upon this planet’s surface for a great portion of what you call time, so that these vibrations of disharmony have entered into the planet itself, and as the planet begins its transit into that density of Love, there is the momentary mismatch of vibratory frequencies. This mismatch becomes apparent to those who are sensitive in many ways, but we can assure each that the mismatch or stress suffered is but momentary, and in its way, also offers greater opportunity for each entity upon the planet, and for the planet itself, to find that Love in the moment which has not been found previously, for Love is at the heart of all creation, and no moment is without it’s own infinite share of that Love. Therefore, when such distressing feelings are felt, rejoice that the planet is giving birth to itself and each entity upon it, and that the birth is attended by Love.

May we answer in any further fashion, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you. There is more to the question which I will finish reading. I just couldn’t stand to read the whole thing. The rest of the question reads: “Yogananda speaks of human consciousness/subconscious/superconscious/Christ consciousness/cosmic consciousness. Might this typology be useful in further explicating the above observations?”

I am L/Leema, and we find that this query opens a great field in which the seeker may quest for truth, for, indeed, each incarnation is experience spent in a tiny portion of an entity’s beingness. That portion is what you call the conscious mind. This conscious mind moves about in what you may call an illusion, though most within your illusion feel the illusion to be quite, quite real. The conscious mind is but the tip of the mind of an entity viewed in its entirety. There is that which has been called a veil which separates the conscious mind from the greater portion of an entity’s total beingness. A large portion of that being exists as a portion of an entity’s mind complex and within this mind complex, then, will fall some of those descriptive terms given in the query. The unconscious mind is as the roots of a tree. The branches are as the conscious mind traveling down the trunk into the roots. One may see the unconscious mind moving further and deeper into those portions of mind which are shared with other beings so that there is seen a group mind of an unconscious nature that you may term racial, and in some cases, planetary. These realms of mind are often given names such as superconscious experience, for within such realms there are many beings, levels of creation, or perception, and experiences that one may have in connection with the evolutionary process ongoing in all that form this portion of mind.

As the complex of mind is followed to the limits of its creation—for all creation is a function of mind, consciously applied—there is then the opportunity for the entity or group of entities to make contact with the complex of spirit which then serves as a communicator or shuttle, as it has been called, with that which goes beyond all manifested form, beyond creation and the so-called conscious experience of creation, there is the infinity of that which is not made in any form, but which permeates all form and is, shall we say, the substance from which all which is made is made. This is the unity of infinite intelligence, the being of the one Creator without distortion of any kind. Thus, those terms which were given in the query are terms which are generally applied to the ever-expanding process of the seeker’s seeking wider and wider points from which to view the universe, its own being, and its being’s movement through this universe.

Carla asked another question for L: “Yogananda speaks of human consciousness/subconscious/superconscious/Christ consciousness/cosmic consciousness. Might this typology be useful in further explicating the above observations?” L/Leema said each incarnation is an experience spent in a tiny portion of an entity’s conscious mind which moves about in an illusion, though most within your illusion feel the illusion to be quite real, but the conscious mind is the tip of the mind of an entity viewed in its entirety, and there is the veil which separates the conscious mind from the greater portion of an entity’s total beingness, for a large portion of that being exists as a portion of an entity’s mind complex, and within this mind complex will fall some of those terms given in the query, so the unconscious mind is as the roots of a tree where the branches are as the conscious mind traveling down the trunk into the roots where one may see the unconscious mind moving deeper into those portions of mind which are shared with other beings, so there is seen a group mind of an unconscious nature that you may term racial or planetary, and these realms of mind are given names such as superconscious experience, for within such realms there are many beings, levels of creation, or perception, and experiences that one may have in connection with the evolutionary process ongoing in all that form this portion of mind. Now L/Leema said as the complex of mind is followed to the limits of its creation there is the opportunity for the entity to make contact with the complex of spirit which serves as a shuttle with that which goes beyond creation and the conscious experience of creation, and there is the infinity of that which is not made in any form, but which permeates all form and is the substance from which all is made, for this is the unity of infinite intelligence, the being of the one Creator without distortion of any kind, so those terms which were given in the query are terms which are applied to the ever-expanding process of the seeker’s seeking wider points from which to view the universe, its own being, and its being’s movement through this universe. On September 14, 1986, Q’uo described the nature of our complex of mind:

The usefulness of the information, in our humble opinion, is that which is of most importance, and the source, then, is of secondary consideration, for any entity consciously seeking the keys to its own evolution may find those keys and the doors which they open in any of many, many possible locations, both within the mind and outside of the complex of mind. The entity will draw unto itself those means of receiving information which have the greatest compatibility with the current frequency or level of seeking of that entity. Thus, the means change as the entity proceeds upon its own personal path of growth.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No, I thank you for L.

I am L/Leema, and we thank both the one known as L and you, my sister. Is there another query?

Carla: Well, I’ll ask one last one. This one is just from Carla. I was really interested in the question tonight because I have been, ever since my friend, Don, died, feeling about as low as you can get, not only because of grieving, which is substantial and I expect will go on for some years, because we adored each other, but also because I feel so full of iniquity and sin. I can think of so many things, had I known that the man was so close to suicide, that I might have been able to get up the energy to do a little differently, even though I was under a lot of stress, if I had known how critical everything was. I keep going back and seeing one omission or commission after another that if I could take it back, I would give my life to do so. And so, I have never in my life felt so empty of virtue. And I wonder if you could comment on the subjective feeling of a person who attempts with all her heart to find value and to be virtuous as opposed to the objective or inner, shall we say, beyond the veiled reality of virtue and value.

I am L/Leema, and we feel that we have sufficient grasp of your query that we may comment within the boundaries of the Law of Confusion. As the small self which you are, seemingly, at this time moves in various patterns through the illusion, it is planned aforetimes that there will be the difficulties that will test certain, shall we say, characteristics, or as others may call them, virtues of the entity. These characteristics have been formed through great effort in many incarnational experiences. They may not be easily recognized by your people as obviously virtuous, for many are beyond the description of words commonly associated with virtuosity. In the difficult experience, and by this we suggest that a challenge has been presented and the limitations of the small self have been stretched near to breaking, the entity has the opportunity to examine not only its performance or ability to meet the challenge which is a portion of the learning, but has the opportunity to view its own response to what it calls a failure, or what you have called the iniquity, the sin, that which has missed the mark. This is a greater portion of the learning, for within your illusion and within those small selves who populate your illusion, you find the challenges are infinite, yet the ability to meet such challenges is finite. It has limitations designed to form the very personality or small self which you seem to be. Limitations are merely the extent of manifestation of a certain character trait, thus they are not strictly or correctly defined as only a limitation.

Taken in sum, these various character traits, then, are the significant portion that is experiencing the incarnation in order to further develop or finely balance these energy patterns. For any such development or balancing process, the self must have a certain feeling of value or worth in order that there be the motivation or reason to continue learning. As your small self looks upon your so-called failures and makes its judgment, then it further biases the small self’s view of itself in whatever direction, whether it be acceptance or lack of acceptance. Thus, a basic bias is offered an opportunity for further bias or further balance according to the needs of the entity in the total scope of its being.

Carla asked: “And I wonder if you could comment on the subjective feeling of a person who attempts with all her heart to find value and to be virtuous as opposed to the objective or inner, shall we say, beyond the veiled reality of virtue and value.” L/Leema replied as the small self which you are at this time moves in patterns through the illusion, it is planned that there will be difficulties that will test certain virtues of the entity, and these characteristics have been formed through great effort in many incarnational experiences, but they may not be recognized by your people as virtuous, for many are beyond the description of words associated with virtuosity, for in the difficult experience the entity has the opportunity to examine its ability to meet the challenge which is a portion of the learning, but it has the opportunity to view its response to a failure, and this is a greater portion of the learning, for within your illusion, and within those small selves who populate your illusion, you find the challenges are infinite, yet the ability to meet such challenges is finite, for it has limitations designed to form the personality which you seem to be, so limitations are the extent of manifestation of a certain character trait, and they are not correctly defined as only a limitation. Now Latwii said these character traits are the significant portion that is experiencing the incarnation in order to further balance these energy patterns, for any balancing process the self must have a certain feeling of worth in order that there be the reason to continue learning, for as your small self looks upon your failures and makes its judgment, then it further biases the small self’s view of itself in whatever direction, whether it be acceptance or lack of acceptance, for a basic bias is offered an opportunity for further balance according to the needs of the entity in the total scope of its being. On December 27, 1987, Q’uo spoke of the nature of being virtuous:

We intend for each to see that each is an imponderably important portion of the channeled cumulative value of humankind at this time, and insofar as struggles have been rewarded with virtuous hope, as difficult dealings have been faced with honest courage, so moves the labyrinth of humankind, slowly yielding to the carefully penciled traces of the path we must retrace to that source of all channeling, of all being, the one infinite Creator.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: That in itself is a complete answer, but I would like to press forward with just one point which I just neglected to put into the first part. It was in my mind, but I didn’t get it out. During the period that I’m speaking of, which lasted about a year, I guess, before Don died, I had to make decisions many times. And I don’t think I’ve ever prayed as hard in my life—ever. And each time I had to make the decision to do this or to do that, to sympathize or try to indicate, “No, this is not normal, this is abnormal; how can I help you get well?” that kind of thing, it seemed at the time that I had prayed it through, and that I had meditated, and that I was not running on my own steam but that I did have access to the higher self. And yet, all of those wise decisions all added up to an outcome which was, to my little self, vastly not to be desired. So, is part of what you’re saying, or what you were saying through me earlier about virtue, that it is liable to be unpopular and misunderstood, and seeming to miss the mark completely?

I am L/Leema, and we agree with this summary, shall we say, of our previous comments in response to your specific query, for that which has value to the total being may be that which is quite misunderstood by the small self which is, shall we say, bearing the weight of that which it does not and in some ways cannot understand. Such a burden increases the difficulty of any lesson. Yet at the same time such a burden increases the value or weight of the lesson when it is learned.

May we answer further, my sister?

Carla: No, thank you. Thank you very much.

I am L/Leema, and we are grateful to you, my sister. Is there another query?

[Pause]

I am L/Leema, and we thank you, each of you, for allowing our presence and humble words to be shared this evening. We are grateful beyond all words to be able to join a group such as this one which seeks the truth without pretense or presupposition that such truth is already possessed. We are with you at your request and shall at this time leave this instrument and this group, rejoicing in the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are L/Leema. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning the quote from The Thunder of Silence is: “Actually, there is no such thing as carnal mind because there is but one mind, and it is unconditioned. It is not mortal; It is not human; it cannot be named, described, or analyzed. That which we call carnal mind is merely a belief in two powers, and when you recognize that, you can stop fighting error or trying to overcome it, rise above it, or remove it. Never try to protect yourself from mortal mind or carnal mind. The nature of any protective work must be your realization that there are not two powers, and all you ever have to protect yourself from is that belief in two powers.

As you begin to perceive that mind is unconditioned, your thoughts never turn to the subject of good or evil. You are just living each circumstance of life as it comes along. This does not mean withdrawing from the world: it means being in the world but not of it, living each experience without trying to cling to it if it seems good or without trying to get rid of it if it seems evil. It is a life of nonattachment to things. It is only when we are trying to cling to something or to somebody or trying to get rid of someone or some condition that we are attached.

The moment that you think of mind in terms of your mind and my mind, separate and apart from the one unconditioned mind, you have missed the point; but once you begin to understand that there is only one mind, you will never do anything unless it is in keeping with God’s law. It will never be your will or my will: it will be God’s will.

In the surrender of personal will, this unconditioned mind can operate in us and through us. As long as we condition our mind with beliefs of good and evil, we will bring forth good and evil in  proportion to our faith or belief. As a person becomes convinced in their heart, so it is unto them. It is all a matter of conditioning, and you can condition yourself for good or for evil; but when you leave the realm of conditioning, you are in the ream of that mind which was also in Christ Jesus.

In all the healings that Jesus brought forth in His ministry, it was the Father’s will that was being performed through Him, and He knew that it was not His mind, but the Father’s mind: it was the unconditioned mind. Therefore, He could say to a blind man, “Open your eyes.” He could say to the crippled man, “What did hinder you?” In other words, there was no conditioned condition in His consciousness. There was only unconditioned mid which is neither healthy nor sick, neither rich no poor.”

This morning I went outside and used Whip Lash to weed Little Locust Creek, the back deck area, and the area around the cross in the back yard. Then I ran a couple errand with my first stop being at Thieneman’s Nursery where I bought four flats of Caladium        . My next stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I dropped off a prescription to be filled. Then I bought some Kleenexes and some ice cream.

When I got home, I used Whip Lash to trim the Henbit vines off of the pine straw that mulches my Azaleas just off my back deck and then in the Azalea Garden in the Cross Area in the back yard. Then I put three bales of pine straw over the old pine straw. Then I used Whip Lash to weed around the giant Sycamore and the Flower Garden in the middle of The Moss Garden in my back yard. Then I used Whip Lash to trim the weeds in Little Locust Creek in my side and back yards.

This afternoon I transplanted Begonias on the southeast corner of the Flower Garden in the middle of the Moss Garden. Then I transplanted Rose Calibrachoa flowers half way around the second layer of the Flower Garden in the middle of the Moss Garden. There were some of the flowers that I bought today that didn’t have labels on them. One of them I transplanted in the middle of the Flower Garden, another on half the second level of the Flower Garden, another on the Flower Garden on the northwest side of the Flower Garden, and another one on the east side of the Flower Garden. Then I covered all of the Flower Garden with netting to protect the flowers from the deer. The I used the sprinkler to water all of the Flower Garden.

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

April 20

The Heritage Of Christ

I am of the principle of the full consciousness of Love.

Once, many years ago, a man you call Jesus walked upon the dry soil of his native land. The reality of an incarnation is such that at times it may blind those who follow such an incarnation of Christhood to the eternal and immutable consciousness of Christ which was carried within that incarnation, but which is available always for those who seek this consciousness.

It is not an illusion or a delusion to seek the consciousness of Christ. Focusing upon the incarnation of Jesus the Christ is a tool and a resource, a blessing and a gift.

However, the very air that you breathe carries the consciousness of Christhood.

Know that you are channels of the consciousness of Christ and, insofar as you may give yourself over entirely to that consciousness, others shall see Christ through you. For are you not also the sons and daughters of humankind? Do you not also share the heritage which Jesus offered for all? We encourage you to refrain from despair in focusing upon the incarnation of Jesus and contrasting it with your own consciousness.

Peace be with you as you create new life by your consciousness, 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. 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.
