I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn quote comes from December 28, 1975:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am privileged to speak with this gathering, and I greet you in the love and the light of our infinite Creator. I am with you, and I bring you my peace.

It is written in the words of your most recent master, the one known as Jesus: “Not as the world gives, give I unto you.” And as I offer you my peace, may I say, this is so. It is not peace as the world would give, of which I speak, but a truer peace. I am a member of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator. I come across galaxies, countless, through a dimensionless gateway, and into your so-called reality, into your special place, into your universe, where you exist. My brothers and sisters and I come because you have called us. Because within this universe, the cry goes out from those who are in need, who wish to know reality.

And there are always those who listen. Cries do not go forth unheard, in this infinite universe. And we have heard you, and have come. Others have heard you, and have come. Those of your planet who are able to give, are ready to give unto you, at the finer levels of your planetary sphere. And we from other spheres are here also. For we can tell you one way, a complementary way, another way: all paths are one. There are those who can listen to us who cannot listen to others who would tell you what we will tell you. And so, we come, and others come, when those upon your planet call for help. For we are all brothers and sisters; all beings upon each level in the infinite Creation are all brothers and sisters.

In this session Hatonn wanted to speak about love, so they said it is written in the words of your most recent master, the one known as Jesus: “Not as the world gives, give I unto you,” and as I offer you my peace this is so, but it is not peace as the world would give but a truer peace, for I am a member of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator, and I come across galaxies, through a dimensionless gateway, and into your reality where you exist, so I come because you have called us because within this universe, the cry goes out from those who are in need, who wish to know reality. Then Hatonn said there are always those who listen since cries do not go forth unheard in this infinite universe, and we have heard you, and have come, and others have heard you, and have come because those of your planet who are able to give, are ready to give unto you, at the finer levels of your planetary sphere, and we from other spheres are here also, for we can tell you that all paths are one, and there are those who can listen to us who cannot listen to others who would tell you what we will tell you, so we come, and others come, when those upon your planet call for help, for we are all brothers and sisters; all beings upon each level in the infinite Creation are all brothers and sisters. On October 1, 2016, Q’uo said that we are all brothers and sisters:

We have perhaps traveled a bit further upon the same path that you find yourselves upon, and we are happy to offer what we have learned to you from this journey that we have made, but we are not ultimate authorities, we are your brothers and sisters, as indeed the entire Creation is of one being and each of us finds our source within that one being, the One Infinite Creator. We are all brothers and sisters on this journey of seeking reunion with the One.

There are several different topics upon which I will to speak this evening. But, my friends, I believe I desire first of all to speak to you of love. It is known to us that each of you desires to seek wisdom, to seek spirituality. Yet we would say to you at this time, please allow this search for knowledge to begin and end within your own experience. You are not seeking a substitute, a different reality in place of the present reality. You are seeking to know your own reality for the first time. You are even now, at this moment, dwelling in reality. It is truly written: Heaven is all about you. You are not seeking a far-away, long-distant kingdom. For the kingdom of Heaven is with you, within you, and about you. Your experience contains the kingdom that you seek.

Let us again observe the teachings of the one known as Jesus. If you do these things to the least of these, my brethren, you do them unto me. The kingdom is all about you, and the Creator is within the face that is across from you, on the street, and in your house. Each stranger, each friend, and each enemy is the Creator. Know ye not that all are brothers and sisters? You seek love, you seek to know the Creator, and yet the Creator is in each face that you see. Look at each other, and, for the first time, truly see the very best within each other. Within the one known as Jesus was a sight which was of Love. Those who were about Him could be described in rather unfavorable terms. Those whom He loved could be described as harlots, tax-collectors, publicans, beggars. There were many sick and crippled.

Then Hatonn said there are several different topics upon which I will to speak this evening, but I desire first of all to speak to you of love, and it is known to us that each of you desires to seek spirituality, yet we would say please allow this search for knowledge to begin and end within your own experience, for you are not seeking a different reality in place of the present reality, but you are seeking to know your own reality for the first time, for you are now dwelling in reality, and it is written: Heaven is all about you, so you are not seeking a far-away kingdom, for the kingdom of Heaven is within you, and about you, so your experience contains the kingdom that you seek. Hatonn continued by saying let us again observe the teachings of Jesus who said if you do these things to the least of these, my brethren, you do them unto me, and the kingdom is all about you, for the Creator is within the face that is across from you, on the street, and in your house, so each stranger, each friend, and each enemy is the Creator, and all are brothers and sisters who seek love, so you seek to know the Creator, and yet the Creator is in each face that you see, so look at each other, and see the very best within each other, for within Jesus was a sight which was of Love, and those who were about Him could be described in unfavorable terms as harlots, tax-collectors, publicans, beggars, and there were many sick and crippled. On May 23, 1999, Q’uo described how each of us is the Creator:

Truly, the mystery of deity is wrapped up in this question of how to be one’s true self. For as the one known as Jim read from the Law of One material earlier this day, each is the Creator. And the challenge before all living in illusion is how to become more aware of that personhood as infinite Creator.

The workings of what this instrument would call God and men are as complex and as assorted and varied as the grains of sand upon the shore. It is difficult to comprehend the myriad numbers of sparks of the Creator that are, just as you or we, attempting to be their true selves. It is hard to fathom that, even upon your planet, one small entity amidst a million or a billion other planetary entities, there is such a long history of people such as you attempting to survive, to relate to each other, to accomplish physical and societal, mental, and emotional goals.

And in no case did the one known as Jesus see them as anything but the Creator, the Creator who was directly before Him on the physical plane. He looked with Love. He saw the possibilities within each of his “fallen” friends. To the sinner, He said, “This day, you will be with me in paradise.” My friends, these things are familiar to you, and so I use this channel, and this mode of discussion, as a good example. There are other masters, and they have showed this Creator-within in other words. But we believe that it is through this example that you will most easily understand what we are saying to you. We look at you, and we see the light, we see the perfection, and it is our delight to be in communication with you.

It is very possible for you to become one with this vibration. And, my friends, this vibration of Love, this vibration of compassion will transform your life into that of the Kingdom of Heaven. It is a matter of balancing between two opposite attitudes in your seeking. There are two dangers, and we say this with a sense of humor, for the dangers are not real. It is the balancing between them that causes your progress. These two dangers, my friends, are pride and humility. Woe be unto the man who begins to feel that it is his love that is setting those about him on the path of light, that it is his compassion that is such a light to others. Woe be unto this man, for the love of the personality is limited. It will run out, and in its wake will come much sadness. Woe also to the person who says, “I am unworthy. In my humility I must admit I cannot be a fit channel for the Love of the Creator. Do not expect me to keep trying the impossible, for I am not worthy, and I cannot do this.”

Hatonn went on to say in no case did Jesus see them as anything but the Creator who was directly before Him on the physical plane, so He looked with Love, and He saw the possibilities within each of his “fallen” friends, and to the sinner He said, “This day, you will be with me in paradise.” Now Hatonn said these things are familiar to you, so I use this channel, and this mode of discussion, as a good example, and there are other masters, and they have showed this Creator-within in other words, but we believe that it is through this example that you will understand what we are saying to you, for when we look at you, and we see the Light, we see the perfection, and it is our delight to be in communication with you. Hatonn went on to say it is possible for you to become one with this vibration of Love which will transform your life into that of the Kingdom of Heaven, so it is a matter of balancing between two opposite attitudes in your seeking, but there are two dangers–and we say this with a sense of humor–for the dangers are not real, and it is the balancing between them that causes your progress, so these two dangers are pride and humility, so woe be unto the person who begins to feel that it is their love that is setting those about them on the path of Light, and woe be unto this person, for the love of the personality is limited since it will run out, and in its wake will come much sadness, and woe also to the person who says: “I am unworthy. In my humility I must admit I cannot be a fit channel for the Love of the Creator. Do not expect me to keep trying the impossible, for I am not worthy, and I cannot do this.” On September 17, 2003, Q’uo explained how we may travel the path of light:

Yet always, when the digging is done, and the self is at last satisfied with that work which the mind and the feelings can do, there is the infinitely shorter route to realization of the true nature of the self that is involved in moving into the open heart and sitting within that tabernacle in which the Creator is always waiting, to share silence with that Creator, to share being with that Creator that is the deepest part of you and is, therefore, never away from you.

Consciousness is that which you partake in, in the semblance and illusion of individuality. As you hook into that consciousness from the eccentric surface of your personality shell, you become more and more able to trust that path of Light that leads from that crooked and sometimes tormented surface to the still, clear, lovely waters of the deep self. It is not that the one known as T has no capacity or opportunity for dramatic service in the sense of teaching or offering other outer gifts to be shared by those in need upon the Earth plane. Each entity within this circle came into incarnation with some plans in that regard, with some hopes of sharing deeply felt gifts with those who might appreciate them.

In neither case, my friends, have you quite hit the balance. And if you find yourself in either pride or humility, balance between confidence and the knowledge of your own imperfections as a personality Because you see, both of these things are true, and neither of them matter. You are a channel through which the Creator may express Itself. The Creator is Love, and Its expression is Love. When you see someone, to your outer eye, he may be nothing but, shall we say, a very common-looking or even unpleasant piece of stone. A large rock, awkward and peculiarly colored. Yet to the eye within, the eye of love, this rock will be the shape which the master may carve from the rock so that it becomes a beautiful statue, a statue with beautiful lines and coloration, with all the potential of that piece of rock set free in beauty of line. People are both their raw materials and the possibility of perfection. It is the Creator Who causes these possibilities to become manifest in the physical world.

You cannot do it. Of course not. You can only say to the Creator, “Please, live this moment for me. Allow my eyes to shine with your light.” It is to the outer eye a very dark world. Darkness is all about you. My friends, within the darkness, there is light. If you wish to allow it to shine forth, it can never be denied. The light may not light up all of the darkness, but where you are, it will be light, if you allow it to be so. Picture your eyes as windows, and make sure the shades are up, so that the light may shine through. The shades are made of prejudice, judgment, petty feelings, and negativity of all kinds. Your personality has been given to you so that you may work these things out. Again and again, you will find yourself pulling the shades down. Always it is the precise moment of now that is important. If you have been in error, simply choose at this moment to release that error, and let the shades up, and let the light shine through. What has happened in the past is completely done with.

Hatonn continued by saying in neither case have you hit the balance, so if you find yourself in either pride or humility, find a balance between confidence and the knowledge of your own imperfections as a personality because both of these things are true, and neither of them matter since you are a channel through which the Creator may express Itself, for the Creator is Love, and Its expression is Love, so when you see someone they may be a common-looking or even unpleasant piece of stone, yet to the eye of Love, within this rock, will be the shape which the master may carve from the rock so that it becomes a statue with beautiful lines and coloration, with all the potential of that piece of rock set free in beauty of line, so people are both their raw materials and the possibility of perfection, and it is the Creator Who causes these possibilities to become manifest in the physical world. Then Hatonn said you cannot do it, for you can only say to the Creator: “Please, live this moment for me. Allow my eyes to shine with your light.” Hatonn said it is to the outer eye a very dark world, and within the darkness there is Light, so if you wish to allow it to shine forth, it can never be denied, but the Light may not light up all of the darkness, but where you are it will be Light if you allow it to be, so picture your eyes as windows, and make sure the shades are up so that the light may shine through, for the shades are made of judgment and negativity of all kinds, so your personality has been given to you so that you may work these things out, and again and again, you will find yourself pulling the shades down, and always it is the moment of now that is important, so if you have been in error, choose at this moment to release that error, and let the shades up, and let the light shine through because what has happened in the past is completely done with. On May 20, 2007, Q’uo said that in the moment of now that we are the Creator:

In religion, it is by faith that the keys are turned in the locks of wisdom, and the doors swing open to offer realizations and insight. All of these words only rap at the door of the deeper truth, which is that the objective referent of the one infinite Creator is yourself.

What do you know about yourself? You know your desires and the strength of your desires. You know that one thing has led to another in your life in a path that has seemed anything but straight, and yet as you gaze back over your life experience, you see how everything fell as it did in order to bring you to this present, immaculate moment of now.

What would you say if we asked you who you are? What is the “I” of you? This is the third key. One ancient name of the Creator is the Hebrew, “I Am.” It is variously interpreted as “I am that I am,” or “I am becoming what I am,” or simply, “I Am, I Am,” and so each of you is an “I Am.”

My brothers and sisters, I leave you in love and in everlasting light. I am the one known as Hatonn. Adonai vasu borragus.

This morning I went outside and used my trimmer to weed the Day Lily Garden beside the garage. Then I transplanted six Striped Leaf Liriope into the Striped Leaf Garden next to the cross in the back yard. Then I transplanted six      on the top of the Wuthering Heights Mound in the back yard. Then I drove to The Home Depot and bought eight Dahlias.

This afternoon I transplanted the Dahlias into the Sun Mandala behind the garage. Then I used my backpack blower to blow the leaves out of the Moss Garden so that I could use my trimmer to trim the weeds out of the Moss Garden. Then I used the backpack blower to blow the weed trimmings out of the Moss Garden.

The Strength Of Waiting

I am of the principle of the Love of Jesus Christ, that perfect Love which is the Love of creation. Still, I come forth from the Christ principle to be the agent of the consciousness of Love.

Those who seek hastily and fervently for us may not find us, for we come to those who rest in the strength of waiting and expectancy of hope and quietness toward our presence.

Though we are a fair portion of each situation and each excursion into illusion, to be efficacious in joining our spirit to human will, you must wait for Spirit and ask Spirit to enter. Thus, it is in quietness that the Spirit comes and speaks to one who wills to hear that soft voice which may create and transform the outer circumstances.

For the inner experience of grace allows one to see for the first time the outer circumstance with the lines of spirit drawn in the pencil of Love, so that the way of inner Spirit to outer manifestation of created Love becomes clear.

We leave you in the anticipation of each discovery of the Spirit. We leave you in the peace of the consciousness of Love, 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 quote comes from December 7, 1975:

(Carla channeling)

I am with this instrument. I am Hatonn. As many times as we have gone over these concepts, we find that it is not clear within any of your minds just what the relationship is between you and the Creator. Somehow, it seems to your conscious mind that to say that you are the Creator, the Creator cannot get along without you, you are Gods, etc., is somewhat laughable and even, shall we say, egocentric. And, my friends, if we were saying these things to you at the level at which these words unfortunately speak, indeed it would be terribly incorrect information. We ask that you attempt to relax your mind. Remove yourself from the tightness of your everyday thinking. And begin to see that you are very close to yourself, and very far from the nearest star, so that you seem to be much larger than the star. It is a matter of perspective. In reality, the star is a majestic, magnificent, enormous entity, compared to you. And if you are one with the star, then the star is one with you, and neither complete without the other. It is no more than the understanding which is recorded in your holy works, where it is written that sparrows, which are two for a penny, never fall without the Creator knowing that they have fallen. All things, large and small, lie within the Creator, for they lie within the creation.

We do not know what the Creator is. We do not know Its nature. We do not know Its actions, Its purposes, His intentions. The Creator is infinite, invisible. This we know, for this the Creator has shown to us again and again: that it created us in a vibration of pure Love, and that It considers all of us as itself. And so, we tell you this, not knowing the ultimate reason, only knowing that there is reason enough for our infinite existence as entities within a loving creation exist and may be told to all. We come to give you a message of Love. We come to tell you that you are gods, not because you are so wonderful, but because the Creator is wonderful. And the Creator is within you. Stand away from your personality, and see if you can find that faraway sun within you, that star shining in the darkness and depths of your soul. There shines the Creator: in some cases, terribly distant, yet always there, and always shining. All you need do, my friends, is look up. Within yourself, begin to seek for that star. The Creator is within you, and the Creator will work through you.

The concept in this session was: “What the relationship is between the Creator and us.” Hatonn began by saying as many times as they have gone over these concepts, they find that it is not clear within any of our minds just what the relationship is between us and the Creator, and it seems to our conscious mind that to say that we are the Creator and that we are Gods is laughable, and if they were saying these things to us at the level at which these words speak, it would be incorrect information, so they ask that we attempt to relax our mind, and remove our self from the tightness of our everyday thinking, and begin to see that we are close to our self, and far from the nearest star, so that we seem to be much larger than the star, but it is a matter of perspective because the star is a magnificent entity compared to us, and if we are one with the star, then the star is one with us , and neither complete without the other, for it is no more than the understanding which is recorded in our holy works, where it is written that sparrows, which are two for a penny, never fall without the Creator knowing that they have fallen, and all things, large and small, lie within the Creator, for they lie within the creation. Now Hatonn said they do not know what the Creator is, but that the Creator is infinite and invisible, and they know this for the Creator has shown this to them again and again: that It created us in a vibration of pure Love, and that It considers all of us as Itself, and so they tell us this, not knowing the ultimate reason, only knowing that there is reason enough for their infinite existence as entities within a loving creation to exist, and they come to give us a message of Love and to tell us that we are gods, not because we are so wonderful, but because the Creator is wonderful, and the Creator is within us, so we must stand away from our personality, and see if we can find that faraway star within us shining in the depths of our soul, for there shines the Creator, distant, yet always there, and always shining, so all we need do is look up, and begin to seek for that star because the Creator is within us, and the Creator will work through us. On January 2, 2016, Q’uo said that the Creator is within us:

Your path within the third density illusion is the most difficult path that you shall ever travel, for only the third density illusion has the veil of forgetting. Only in this illusion is it not completely apparent at all times that you are part of the One Infinite Creator. Because this veil is so thick and so prevalent, it offers you the opportunity to make great progress if you are able, consciously, to penetrate any portion of this veil. It takes effort; it takes inspiration and motivation; it takes persistence.

And if you can exercise these qualities, my friends, you shall find that they shall come back unto you tenfold, a hundredfold, so that if you cast your bread upon the waters again, as your Bible says, that they shall return to you, and enrich you, and enliven you, and inspire you; and you shall, therefore, move forward upon your spiritual path, the journey which you have set for yourselves, a journey which seems to be without end, the journey which has so many twists and turns, valleys, and mountains, arid deserts, drenching rain … all the seasons at one time or another will challenge you to give your best effort. And yet, if you persist, at some point within your illusion you shall find that you are rewarded with great feelings of inspiration, of illumination, of enlightenment; of times when you see clearly that you are part of an infinite creation and Creator that made all things and cares about you as much as it cares about anything, and that this Creator is within you, awaiting only your seeking, your knocking at the door, your seeking in order to find, you’re asking in order for your questions to be answered.

And so, you may say, my friends, the Creator is you. For all practical purposes, my friends, you may cause your life to become a channel through which the Creator may live and move. In many cases, it may seem as though this human personality of yours may never get, shall we say the hang of showing the Creator’s Love to others. It may seem that the possibilities of the situations which you are in are very, very limited for showing Love. But I say to you: that it is truly written that the place whereon you are standing is holy ground. You do not need to put yourself into a situation which may seem outwardly spiritual in order to be in a spiritual situation. For, my friends, the universe is a spiritual universe, and what you are going through is an illusion called the physical existence.

Spirituality, as it is called, may often seem to be a joke. One cannot be spiritual in a church and walk away from the church and become nonspiritual. This, may I say, my friends, makes no sense at all. For one is Spirit and one carries the Spirit within the temple of his body, into and out of church. Into and out of every situation. When the situation seems difficult, wait for a moment for the realization to come to you that in you is a Spirit, and within that Spirit is enough Love to carry you through that situation so that you may show the Love of the Creator. Continue with your meditations. And never give up hope. For, my friends, you are part of the Creator. This you will realize more each day. And it is true, my friends. In the creation there can be no sorrow.

Hatton went on to say we are the Creator, and for all practical purposes we may cause our life to become a channel through which the Creator may live and move, and in many cases, it may seem as though our human personality may never have the ability to show the Creator’s Love to others, so it may seem that the possibilities of the situations that we are in are very limited for showing Love, but Hatonn said that it is truly written that the place whereon we are standing is holy ground, and we do not need to put our self into a situation which may seem outwardly spiritual in order to be in a spiritual situation, for the universe is a spiritual universe, and what we are going through is an illusion called the physical existence. Q’uo continued by saying spirituality may often seem to be a joke since we cannot be spiritual in a church and walk away from the church and become nonspiritual because this makes no sense at all, for we are Spirit, and we carry the Spirit within the temple of our body into and out of church and every situation, so when the situation seems difficult, wait for a moment for the realization to come to us that in us is a Spirit, and within that Spirit is enough Love to carry us through that situation so that we may show the Love of the Creator, so we can continue with our meditations, and never give up hope, for we are part of the Creator, and this we will realize more each day, so it is true that in the creation there can be no sorrow. On December 29, 2007, Q’uo described the nature of the temple of our body:

You are that entity that can both act in space/time and be fully aware of time/space. You bring those two illusions together, the heavy illusion and the lighter illusion. And yes, we call both the metaphysical and the physical world illusions. As far as we know, all that is seen, touch, felt, tasted and so forth is an illusion. But as well, all that is thought in the worlds that are unseen is also a kind of illusion, each illusion being carefully crafted to give the inhabitants of that illusion those elements which they need in order to experience, learn, serve, and grow. For all that you do and all that we do and all that is done in all of creation is harvested to the one infinite Creator, that It may know Itself ever better.

You are, then, that crossroads in which timelessness meets time and insight meets intellect. You do not need to let those two separate. You may continue to live a worldly life and at the same time, ever and always, daily enhance your connection with the divine. Remember that you are priests. It is said in your holy works that you are a nation of priests, and so you are, each of you those which conduct the sacred rite of living within the temple of your body, your mind, your emotions, your intellect, and your spirit.

I will leave you at this time. I am Hatonn. Adonai.

This morning I went outside and cleaned the filters in the fishpond and pumped out enough water so that the technician from Economical Aquatic Gardens can see the patch on the liner and avoid spraying it when he cleans the liner. While he was pumping out the rest of the water and putting my goldfish in containers and cleaning the liner I did some weeding by hand in the back yard. I began with weeding the flower garden in the center of the Moss Garden, and then I weeded the Morning Glory garden in the center of the Azaelia Garden. Then I weeded the Hostas that grow in front of the Forsythia Bushes behind the Azaelia Garden.

This afternoon I ran some errands with my first stop being PNC Bank where I made a cash withdrawal. My next stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some five Begonias and three Striped Liriope and some food for myself. My third stop was at Frank Otte’s Nursery where I bought three more Striped Liriope. My fourth stop was at Walgreen’s Drug Store where I bought some Pepsi-Zero, Kleenexes, and note cards.

The Good And Bad Wood

I come in the name of Jesus the Christ—I, the spirit of the living Christ in the world today. I greet you in the inestimable and eternal Love of the Father.

When the axeman hews the tree, he treats it carefully. He sees the good wood and the bad. He sees the wood that shall make lumber and the wood that shall make kindling. He has a perspective upon this tree that he could never have had as he gazed upon it as a living being, for he has moved that living being, deadened it, and claimed it for his own use.

Only through the hands of Spirit can such sacrifice be recovered, renewed and recreated. Consider well, my children, the lesson of the tree. Use what you need. For truly this is the way of your life. But give back that which your earth needs. Give back that which your peoples need, that the Holy Spirit, through each of you, may renew the face of the Earth.

We leave you in the striving amidst peace and the peace amidst all strife. We leave you in that peace the world knows not, now and ever.

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 quote comes from November 30, 1975:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am the one known as Hatonn. I greet you in the love and the light of the infinite Creator, the Creator of us all. It is, as always, my privilege to be with you, especially at this time, for we speak to those at a special time. We do not wish to make occasions where there are no occasions. Yet we say to you this is, within each of your experiences, a time of dedication. You may call it a rededication. Yet within this small group, my friends, there is a dedication that is not always found. Therefore, we say, “Greetings” in a special sense, from those of us who are privileged to be with you at this time. My brothers, you have heard many of our words, and it is as though we appear to you as tailors, measuring and cutting, and detailing and analyzing, and attempting to tailor for you the spiritual path, using our tools and laying it all together in a measured way. And this, of course, is because we have used these channels, and we have used words. In reality, we are not tailors, and there is no measure. In reality, our message is infinite, and there is no set pattern for progress. And that which we truly have to give you lies within the silence. We find that each of you is aware of this, and yet the words are comforting, and so we are very happy to speak with you.

You must know that in many ways, you are no longer dependent upon these words, for you carry within you the ability to receive thoughts. Each of you does not need the channel any longer. Yet, what one needs for survival and what one needs to be at his peak are two different things. And that is why it is a very, very good thing that you are still meeting to hear us, as well as to meditate. There is within each of you that which desires always to let go for a moment and simply be taught, be led. This is proper. And so, we welcome the opportunity to speak. Tonight, we would like to give you a few thoughts on the nature of innocence. We want you to think of your own nature, and of what you consider to be your sins, your errors, your mistakes. You who try, sometimes very hard, to be upon the spiritual path, often are very hard upon yourselves because you have erred, made a mistake. You have manifested that which was not positive. And you say, “Why have I done this? Why did I make this error? I did not mean that! Why did I do it?” And you concentrate on the error. And this does not seem to prevent you from making an error the next time.

The theme for this session was that this is a special time of dedication and innocence, so Hatonn began by saying it is their privilege to be with us, especially at this time, for they speak to us at a special time, and they do not wish to make occasions where there are no occasions, yet they said this is a time of dedication, and within this group there is a dedication that is not always found, so they said “Greetings” in a special sense, and they are privileged to be with us at this time, for we have heard many of their words, and it is as though they appear to us as tailors attempting to tailor for us the spiritual path, using their tools and laying it all together in a measured way because they have used these channels and these words, but in reality they are not tailors, and there is no measure, for their message is infinite, and there is no set pattern for progress, and that which they have to give us lies within the silence, and each of us is aware of this, and yet the words are comforting, so they are very happy to speak with us. Hatonn continued by saying we must know that in many ways, we are no longer dependent upon these words, for we carry within us the ability to receive thoughts, so each of us does not need the channel any longer because what we need for survival, and what we need to be at our peak are two different things, and that is why it is a good thing that we are still meeting to hear as well as to meditate because there is within each of us that which desires to let go for a moment and be led, for this is proper, and they welcome the opportunity to speak, so tonight they would like to give us a few thoughts on the nature of innocence, and they want us to think of our nature, and of what we consider to be our mistakes since we who try very hard to be upon the spiritual path, often are very hard upon our selves because we have erred, and we have manifested that which was not positive, and we say: “Why have I done this? Why did I make this error? I did not mean that! Why did I do it?” And we concentrate on the error, but this does not prevent us from making an error the next time. On April 8, 2007, Q’uo described what we may find within the silence:

It is an exciting time, and it is an important time for entities—that beginning, that waking up! And it is to be encouraged. Then there is a longer period in which, as you say, there are fewer and fewer questions, but you continue having questions, and it almost seems as though you finish one layer of questions only to find a deeper layer of questions.

And then, my brother, finally, as one continues to seek, one reaches a level where there is a great appreciation for the information that is within the silence, and the tendency is to be hungry not so much for words, which are the creation of humankind, but for the concepts that are full of the mystery of the one Creator, that can be communicated from heart to heart rather than from mind to mind.

My friends, we have said to you many times, “We greet you in love and in light.” We greet you in infinite perfection. We greet perfect beings who are totally innocent. We would like to suggest to you that instead of concentrating upon your mistakes, you ask yourself how much time you have spent this day investigating that portion of your unique person which is totally perfect. How much awareness have you had this day of the Love and the Light of the Creator you have within you? How aware have you been of your own innocence? When you concentrate upon your mistakes, you dwell within the world of mistakes. And mistakes will occur again and again. If your consciousness is dwelling at a higher resonance within the realm where you know that you are a creation of the Creator, you know that you can manifest the Creator’s Love. Then the opportunity for you to make a mistake and manifest that which is not Love will be that much farther from you. Meditation is not upon your mistakes; it is not upon the past. It is upon the eternal present, and upon your innocence. You are a child of Love.

We emphasize this at this time because you are attempting to dedicate yourself in a far deeper way than you have previously attempted to do. And the key to the deeper dedication is to be able to focus yourself not upon the world of mistakes, but upon the world in which that spirit within you, which is the Creator, which you may find it desirable to call the Christ Spirit within you, will manifest. My friends, it is written in your holy works that you do not know when this Spirit will come. It may come in the morning. Or It may come in the evening. Or It may come at midnight. And if your lamp is lit, all will be well. And if it is not lit, you will miss the Spirit. To dwell in the state of awareness that you are watching for the One Who Is All, and this is the source of the inspiration that will affect the kind of service that you wish to give, the kind of life that you wish to dedicate yourself to. You cannot analyze your own motives, your own acts, or other people’s motives and acts. They will tangle you all up, my friends. Only dedicate yourself, not just now, but in all the nows, to the Creator. Watch and wait, for you do not know when the Creator will come.

Now Hatonn said they have said to us many times, “We greet you in love and in light,” and they greet perfect beings who are totally innocent, and they suggest that instead of concentrating upon our mistakes, we ask our self how much time we have spent this day investigating that portion of our unique being which is totally perfect, and: “How much awareness have we had this day of the Love and the Light of the Creator we have within us ? How aware have we been of our own innocence?” Then Hatonn said when we concentrate upon our mistakes, we dwell within the world of mistakes, so  mistakes will occur again and again, but if our consciousness is dwelling at a higher resonance within the realm where we know that we are a creation of the Creator, we know that we can manifest the Creator’s Love, and then the opportunity for us to make a mistake and manifest that which is not Love will be that much farther from us, but meditation is not one of our mistakes; it is not within the past; it is within the eternal present and within our innocence, for we are a child of Love. Hatonn went on to say they emphasize this at this time because we are attempting to dedicate our self in a deeper way than we have previously attempted to do, and the key to the deeper dedication is to be able to focus our self, not upon the world of mistakes, but upon the world in which that Spirit within us, which is the Creator, so it is written in our holy works that we do not know when this Spirit will come since It may come in the morning; or It may come in the evening; or It may come at midnight, and if our lamp is lit, all will be well, but if it is not lit, we will miss the Spirit, so we must dwell in the state of awareness that we are watching for the One Who Is All, and this is the source of the inspiration that will affect the kind of service that we wish to dedicate our self to, for we cannot analyze our acts, or other people’s acts because they will tangle us all up, so we can dedicate our self to the Creator in all the nows, and watch and wait, for we do not know when the Creator will come. On April 21, 1991, Q’uo described the Spirit within us:

Be aware of the smallness of your solidified self. Look at that self in relation to this gigantic being which, of itself, offers you food. It is no mistake or coincidence that the universe that is seen by the greatest telescopes and the universe that is seen by the greatest microscopes in cyclotrons seem identical. Relax that solidified self at this time. Allow the Spirit within you to feel the consciousness which you truly are, to release Itself from the judgments and condemnations of humankind. Feel yourself as the servant that you are, as the prodigal who wished to move forward, to climb that great arc which is the second part of the circle of being, finally to come to the house of the infinite One, to be greeted, and fed, and rejoiced over as prodigal sons and daughters.

Within the innocence of your soul, that which is perfect will always be coming into you. So, concentrate on that. It is especially difficult within your people’s lives at this time to make this change in emphasis, for people more and more have become each other’s watchdog, and this is accepted within your culture, as you may call it. And those who attempt not to concentrate upon the negative are often considered unaware, or even stupid. Yet we assure you that the will that you create by your continued innocence of heart will be a light within this world, this world of yours which is dark at this time. My friends, it is as though the world were deep, deep asleep, and a few of you are attempting to remain awake. For you, my friends, Love may yet light up the sky. For those who sleep, it may be a long night. Other people’s reality will remain real for them. Yours will also remain real for you, no matter how, shall we say, difficult the times may get for those about you. It is truly written that to those which are innocent in heart, those things which are needed will come.

Hatonn continued by saying within the innocence of our soul, that which is perfect will always be coming into us, so we must concentrate on that because it is especially difficult within our  lives at this time to make this change in emphasis, for more and more we have become each other’s watchdog, and this is accepted within our culture, and those  of us who attempt not to concentrate upon the negative are often considered unaware, yet they assured us that the will that we create by our continued innocence of heart will be a light within this world which is dark at this time, and it is as though the world were deep asleep, but a few of us are attempting to remain awake, so for us Love may yet light up the sky, but for those who sleep it may be a long night since other people’s reality will remain real for them, and ours will also remain real for us no matter how difficult the times may get for those about us as it is truly written that to those which are innocent in heart, those things which are needed will come. On December 19, 1995, Q’uo spoke of how those things which are needed will come to us:

And most entities move through the incarnative experience only becoming aware of that state of grace in which the universe is kindly, and in which all things which are needed appear from time to time. Thusly, most entities see grace as that which occurs episodically, now here, now there, and then again elsewhere.

In actuality, these times when grace seems to come near and touch the entity are those times when the individual has been able involuntarily or consciously to allow the self to be completely natural, to rest in the center of being and to allow the natural flow of energy. It is as though the self were a receiver that only intermittently worked. In simplistic terms, then, the way towards maximizing the experience of grace in the incarnative experience is to attempt to come to a feeling within of balance. We would encourage seekers to think upon and ponder the concept of self with regard to the nature of the basic attitude that is given as a natural gift by the Creator to each entity, for the maximizing of the experience of grace can be accomplished by increasing the allowing of the self to rest in the natural balance.

I am so happy to be able to speak with you, and I will tell you it is close to my heart that each of you within this room has the ability to speak our thoughts. It is hoped that each of you will be able to help others. At this time. I would like to leave you so that Laitos, may speak through another channel. I leave you, my friends, in the love and light of the infinite Creator. I am known as Hatonn. I am you. Adonai.

This morning I went outside and used my trimmer to trim the weeds out of the Striped Liriope Garden and the Azalea Garden in the back yard, and then I began trimming around the Forsythia Bushes on all three sides of the back yard.

This afternoon I went outside and weeded the flowers in the Ruins Mound by hand. Then I weeded the small Hosta Garden next to the Astilbe Garden in the back yard by hand.

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

July 1

The Liquor Of Righteousness

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

Know ye that the Spirit is everywhere to be found: in every raindrop, in every birdsong, in every mote of dust under your feet, and in every speck of sky overhead. There is that within you which drinks in this excellent liquor of righteousness and much light passes between the universe outside of you and the universe within.

When the seeker faces the universe as a part of the universe and moves so as to treasure dust and sky, bird and rose, the spirit is encouraged and strengthened and the bond between humankind and nature grows more into the unity that it should enjoy.

We encourage the finding of joy and laughter in the natural world about, for it is full of the Creator’s Spirit.

We leave you in peace, now and ever.

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 quote comes from September 22, 1974:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am now with this instrument. When we say that we know those whom we wish to help and those whom we do not wish to help, we do not speak of knowledge in your sense, and, therefore, that which we say to you concerning your progress as channels is prone to misunderstanding and even error. And yet, the fact remains that there is a flock and those of you who have the calling must be shepherds to that flock. And it is true that there are those who wish to be of the flock, and that there are those who do not wish to be of the flock. And we say to each of you who is a channel, your inner eye is unclouded. It is only your outer eye which becomes confused, and which sees mists and quicksand. Therefore, in your work, which is a good service, use your inner eye for that alone will serve you as you do the will of the Creator.

Before me, as we are here together, each of you sits bathed in Light, and from inside each of you I have the privilege of perceiving your desire to be of service. That this fountain may run clear and sweet is our chief concern. For that which is through you is of the Creator, and each of you are the Creator’s channels.

What can we say to you to encourage you that you have not already heard? Does it seem to you, perhaps, my friends, that in your service you are forever to be stunted, and thwarted, and always misunderstood? I can think of many things to say to you, many words, many thoughts, all of which are true, all of which would be kindly and encouraging, but, my friends, for you I will share with you that which is of another level of understanding. For within service, as within all things, there are many levels of comprehension.

The concept that Hatonn was discussing in this session concerned how they could assist those who wanted to be channels. Hatonn began by saying they know those who they wish to help and those who they do not wish to help, but they do not speak of knowledge in our sense, so that which they say to us concerning our progress as channels is prone to misunderstanding, yet there is a flock, and those of us who have the calling must be shepherds to that flock, and it is true that there are those who wish to be of the flock, and that there are those who do not wish to be of the flock, and they say to each of us who is a channel, our inner eye is unclouded, so it is only our outer eye which becomes confused and which sees mists and quicksand, and in our work, we can use our inner eye, for that alone will serve us as we do the will of the Creator. Hatonn went on to say before us, as we are here together, each of us sits bathed in Light, and from inside each of us they have the privilege of perceiving our desire to be of service, so that this fountain may run clear and sweet is their chief concern, for that which is through us is of the Creator, and each of us is the Creator’s channels, and: “What can we say to us to encourage us that we have not already heard? Does it seem to us that in our service we are forever to be stunted, and thwarted, and always misunderstood?” Then Hatonn said they can think of many things to say to us, many words, many thoughts, all of which are true, all of which would be kindly and encouraging, but, for us they will share that which is of another level of understanding, for within service, as within all things, there are many levels of comprehension. On July 22, 1990, Q’uo spoke of how different levels of understanding are part of our spiritual journey:

The non-local nature of this language refers to a philosophical description that attempts to describe a situation in its most fundamental components. This has to do primarily with the articulation of the qualities of Love and Light as they are acted upon by Free Will. The Free Will being that consciousness which has evolved to a certain level of understanding or breadth of perception according to its own experiences and its efficacy in blending its vibrations with the creation about it so that it discovers the nature of the events, entities, ideas, and interactions by becoming these events, ideas, entities and interactions.

This type of language is that which expresses itself by what you may call a kind of concept communication. Quite literally in your terms it is the equivalent of walking in another entity’s shoes, so that one approaches complete efficiency in the communication.

As you desire to go forth and serve, therefore, know this, that you must be prepared to give away all that you have to give. You must be prepared to walk away and not look back. For there is nothing that you can do for your Creator, but everything. It is a hard lesson, and people have, always, the illusion with which to part within this lesson and they say, “Everything? Not everything!” But, my friends, everything must belong to the Creator. This is hard and yet, if you may realize this fact within your own thinking, your service will become such a thing as I cannot possibly describe.

There is an inevitable blooming of every plant, and each tree will bear fruit in its time. The fruit of your service is a long time coming. For you have worked towards this moment for a long time to your way of thinking, and as you approach this time, you have achieved many lessons, but the final fruits come only after the fruit has dropped from the plant which gave it life. Do not take these words in intellectual ingestion, attempting to coddle an understanding from their specific meaning, for we are speaking not of the physical, but of that which is spiritual. Do not think in terms of the visible, for service is invisible. All those things which are visible, in reality, are invisible, eternal, and completely without limitation, for they are all one thing. They are all the Creator. Everything must be given to the Creator because the Creator is everything.

Hatonn went on to say as we desire to go forth and serve, that we must be prepared to give away all that we have to give, and we must be prepared to walk away and not look back, for there is nothing that we can do for our Creator, but everything, so it is a hard lesson, and people have the illusion to part from this lesson, and they say, “Everything? Not everything!” But everything must belong to the Creator, and this is hard, yet if we may realize this fact within our thinking, our service will become such a thing that cannot possibly be described, and Hatonn continued by saying there is a blooming of every plant, and each tree will bear fruit in its time, so the fruit of their service is a long time coming, for they have worked towards this moment for a long time to Hatonn’s way of thinking, and as they approach this time, they have achieved many lessons, but the final fruits come after the fruit has dropped from the plant which gave it life, so do not take these words in intellectual ingestion, attempting to create an understanding from their meaning, for they are speaking of that which is spiritual, but do not think in terms of the visible, for service is invisible, and all those things which are visible are invisible and eternal, for they are all one thing, so they are all the Creator, and everything must be given to the Creator because the Creator is everything. On October 6, 2006, Q’uo said that the Creator is everything:

My brother, there is always unseen help, and that is not simply when there is a sweat lodge. There is unseen help in every breath you take. It is said in your holy works that the Creator knows when a sparrow falls. This is true; this is abundantly true. For the Creator is everything that there is. It is a system of reportage that is unparalleled. If the Creator is in all parts of the creation, how shall It not know all of the rhythms and rightnesses of the patterns of the dance of creation?

This massive indifference that you find may be turned, in an instant, my friends, by the service of your own thinking from a neutrality to a glorious joy. The indifference, the difficulties, the hindrances of service are part of an illusion which is not yours to understand. For, my friends, it is not understandable. It is simply yours to experience. This service begins within your heart which is completely empty and open, for you have given all that you have to the Creator. And in return, my friends, the Creator has come into this empty and open place. The Creator has filled your essence with Love and Light, and you have become a true channel, able to illuminate each moment with Love. Your service will come. As you desire, it shall be. You may, therefore, prepare and having prepared you may lie down in rest, content with the glory shining around you.

Hatonn continued by saying this indifference that we find may be turned in an instant by the service of our thinking from neutrality to joy, so the difficulties of service are part of an illusion which is not ours to understand, for it is not understandable since it is ours to experience, and this service begins within our heart which is open, for we have given all that we have to the Creator, and in return the Creator has come into this open place, and It has filled our essence with Love and Light, and we have become a true channel, able to illuminate each moment with Love, so our service will come, and as we desire, it shall be, for we may prepare, and having prepared we may lie down in rest, content with the glory shining around us. On March 3, 1985, Hatonn described how we may become a true channel:

If you allow the illusion to become real enough to mask the metaphysical boundaries under which you actually have allegiance, you shall therefore become unable to be of service to yourself or to others. Therefore, we urge each as we urge this instrument most of all to dwell as your holy work says, “under the shadow of the most high,” to allow the most high, that is infinitely about you, to move within your vibratory field in order that you may then be a true channel.

I am aware that there are questions in your minds and I would like to take this opportunity to answer them, if you wish to ask them. Do you have any questions?

[No queries.]

Hatonn: In that case, my friends, I will speak with you concerning a question which, in a general way, is in several of your minds at this time. You have had wonder as to why the Confederation of Planets wishes to serve the Creator by means of coming to planet Earth and talking to groups such as yours. We can certainly understand how puzzling this must look, for within the density which you now enjoy, the approach would not be used, due to the fact that it would not cause a certain change within the group which you intended to aid. However, my friends, you may perhaps gain some understanding of our actions if you will consider that it has been within the history of your people a frequent custom of those who are somewhat of an advanced nature, relatively, reaching out to aid a more primitive, or less sophisticated citizen, or group of people, who are on the threshold of entering a more sophisticated environment. We may add, my friends, that most of the attempts that have been made by those known as missionaries, social groups, sent by the government and others, end with a very low success rate. We hope, my friends, that our basic success rate in aiding you is higher, and this is the reason that we do not come among you and attempt to force you to understand that which we are telling you.

You see, my friends, you are at the beginning of a truly new age. The vibrations are being made new at this time and those who embody within themselves the consciousness of great beings will become that which they know and they… which they are. And we desire to bring each of you who is seeking into this new vibration, content to fulfill your own great destiny in the new age. We have made the step. We exist within this environment at this time, and we know of the help that what you might call a cheering team can do for you, and so we cheer you along. We urge you to, shall we say, do your technique, do your homework so that you may be what you desire to be. These things do not happen by accident. They happen by desire. That desire must originate within you. We are attempting to stimulate the desire that is already within you.

The question was: “Why the Confederation of Planets wishes to serve the Creator by means of coming to planet Earth and talking to groups such as yours.” Hatonn began by saying they can understand how puzzling this must look, for within the density which we now enjoy, the approach would not be used, due to the fact that it would not cause a certain change within the group which they intended to aid, but we may gain some understanding of their actions if we will consider that it has been within the history of those who are somewhat of an advanced nature reaching out to aid a sophisticated group of people, who are on the threshold of entering a more sophisticated environment, and they said that most of the attempts that have been made by those known as missionaries or social groups end with a low success rate, so they hope that their success rate in aiding us is higher, and this is the reason that they do not come among us and attempt to force us to understand that which they are telling us. Hatonn continued by saying we are at the beginning of a new age, and the vibrations are being made new at this time, and those who embody within themselves the consciousness of great beings will become that which they know, and which they are, so they desire to bring each of us who is seeking into this new vibration, content to fulfill our own destiny in the new age, for they have made the step, and they exist within this environment at this time, and they know of the help that a cheering team can do for us, and so they cheer us along, so they urge us to do our homework so that we may be what we desire to be since these things do not happen by accident, but they happen by desire, and that desire must originate within us, and they are attempting to stimulate the desire that is already within us. On January 7, 1974, Oxal spoke of the beginning of a new ago on our planet:

We are here for a special purpose. We are here to serve. Think of this. We are here to serve. This is important. As you now near the end of a master cycle, there will be changes in your physical world. These changes should not be feared. They should be welcomed. For they are signals to you that a new age is dawning. If you understand it, and walk among your people unafraid, then you too will serve. For they will see in you an inner knowledge, which we will provide you. We will also serve you through the absolute limits of our ability. There are cycles in time, and cycles in space, and all things operate in cycles. Your planet now approaches the end of a great, great cycle of time. This has been a learning time, an evolving time, a time of growing. And many of the people of your planet are now ready for a transition to a much more glorious existence.

There is much joy and much beauty and the constant presence of the Creator of us all very apparent of the new vibration. The new vibration is Love, as is the old vibration. And yet, my friends, the truth of Love becomes a little more obvious with the higher vibrations. Through meditation, my friends, you may begin to see the heart of Love in all the clumsy actions of all those who enter your atmosphere in your daily activities. There may be a great deal of difficulty. There may be misspent time and mistaken words, and yet, my friends, each action and each desire is, in truth, a manifestation of Love, shadowed and twisted sometimes, for man is also a Creator and can cause the shape of Love to change. Yet the heart of all action is Love.

Know this within your inmost self, and then you cannot be touched by that illusion which attempts to strike you. The freedom that this gives you to give forth Love in its original state at all times to all people is a very precious gift we think. This is why the Confederation is here. We are all here, many, many of us from different planets, from different vibrations, from various densities, in many circumstances, yet we all work together for we have all come to know the Creator and we all wish to be of service to the Creator, and that alone is enough for us. We only wish to help you. We are one of many who wish to help you. We are here always; in words, if you may find a channel, and without words if you desire our presence. We are always with you to lend our vibrations to your mediation if you so desire.

Hatonn went on to say there is much joy, and beauty, and the constant presence of the Creator of us all is apparent in the new vibration of Love, as is the old vibration, yet the truth of Love becomes obvious within the higher vibrations, and through meditation we may begin to see the heart of Love in the clumsy actions of those who enter our atmosphere in our daily activities, so there may be difficulty, and there may be misspent time and mistaken words, but each action and each desire is a manifestation of Love, shadowed and twisted sometimes, for man is also a Creator and can cause the shape of Love to change, yet the heart of all action is Love. Now Hatonn said we must know this within our inmost self, and then we cannot be touched by that illusion which attempts to strike us, and the freedom that this gives us to share Love in Its original state at all times to all people is a precious gift, and this is why the Confederation is here, and many of them are from different planets and from various densities, yet they all work together, for they have all come to know the Creator, and they all wish to be of service to the Creator, and that alone is enough for them, and they are one of many who wish to help us, and they are here always in words, if we may find a channel, and without words if we desire their presence, for they are always with us to lend their vibrations to our mediation if we so desire. On October 4, 1974, Hatonn spoke of the nature of our journey into the higher vibrations that we all are moving into:

It is possible to speed your progress within this vibration by means of contacting the creation that is within you. And it is this that we have been attempting to guide you to. Each of you, my friends, is attracted to that which we have to give you because you have in the past managed to accumulate enough experience within this vibration that you are vibrating at the level at which your desires are attempting to satisfy themselves by moving into the higher vibrations of spiritual seeking. You have traveled far, my friends. It has been a long journey. You have an infinity of traveling to do yet, I assure you, but, my friends, the lessons are good.

I will leave you now, my friends. It has been a great privilege to be with you. I am so glad to have been able to share this meeting with you. I hope that our words have been of some aid to you. I leave you in the Creator’s love and light. I am Hatonn. Adonai. Adonai vasu.

This morning I switched out the sheets on my bed from the green ones to the blue ones. Then I washed and dried the sheets and pillow cases. Then I ironed the flat sheet and the pillow cases.

This afternoon I went outside and transplanted a flat of Begonias into the Wuthering Heights Mound in the front yard to take the place of the Zinnias that have recently died out. Then I used my trimmer to trim the first quarter of the back yard from the bird feeder to Little Locust Creek and from the Forsythia Bushes to the Lilac Bushes.

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

June 30

The Natural Darkness Of Flesh

I am the voice of Christ’s consciousness of Love to the world, and I greet you in the Love of Jesus the Christ.

This instrument has long pondered why there is discomfort to the instrument when the instrument begins to tune itself and prepare for contact with the Spirit of the living God.

Know ye that you are both Light and darkness. As it has been written, the Light came into the world, but the darkness knew it not.

One who seeks the living Spirit that speaks to the world today seeks the Light which the world recognizes not, nor does the body in the natural darkness of flesh.

Thusly, when the mind and spirit are entrained to a higher and more compassionate tuning, there is created within the being a unity in which one part does not recognize the other. The Light does not recognize the darkness, nor the darkness, the Light.

Know that you are both, and that your choice is always the darkness of a world which has not thought of Christ or the Light which is the powerful and renewing thought of Christ in the world.

We leave you in peace, both now and through eternity. 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 quote comes from August 6, 1974:

(Carla channeling)

I am now with this instrument. I am Hatonn. I greet you. I wish to speak through this instrument, and while this instrument is speaking, my brother, the one known to you as Laitos will condition each of you who desires [inaudible].

We are aware that within your thinking there are many shades of difference, and that you are fascinated with the idea, with the various steps which you must take in order to proceed on the path. We are aware that you have a desire to understand the various categories of experience, the various densities that you have a desire for mainly that which you now seek and begin to understand. We did not understand these things when we first came here. But we have become more sophisticated in the ways of your planet through the years that we have spent within this sector of time and space. We know your people better than we used to and we know of the desire of your people for their categories to be named.

This instrument is almost reluctant to speak this to you due to [inaudible], for her thinking has been upon these very thoughts. We can assure her that this is not her fault but ours. These thoughts are [inaudible] but we are [inaudible]. My friends, we can only tell you that the very idea of density and category, the colors of the rainbow, each of the categorical functions which the human mind so values, is a trap and an illusion in the spiritual sense. We cannot put it any more gently and have you understand what we mean. You must understand, my friends, that all categories are occupants of this illusion which you now enjoy, which you have enjoyed since your physical birth, which you will cease enjoying upon your physical death. There is absolutely no harm in understanding the categories with which you must cope in the illusion. However, to allow this to sink into that which you know as your spiritual path is to allow a crippling influence, a haunting and blinding influence to encroach upon your search for the source of light within you.

The concept being discussed in this session was the nature of the spiritual path. Hatonn began by saying they are aware that within our thinking there are many shades of difference, and that we are fascinated with the various steps which we must take in order to proceed on the path, and they are aware that we have a desire to understand the various densities, for we have a desire for that which we now seek and begin to understand, for they did not understand these things when they first came here, but they have become more sophisticated in the ways of our planet through the years that they have spent within this sector of time and space, so they know our people better than they used to, and  they know of the desire of our people for our categories to be named. Hatonn continued by saying Carla is reluctant to speak this to us due to [inaudible], for her thinking has been upon these very thoughts, and they can assure her that this is not her fault but theirs, so they can only tell us that the idea of density and each of the categorical functions which the human mind so values, is an illusion in the spiritual sense, so they cannot put it more gently and have us understand what they mean, but we must understand that all categories are occupants of this illusion which we have enjoyed since our birth, which we will cease enjoying upon our physical death, and there is no harm in understanding the categories with which we must cope in the illusion, but to allow this to sink into that which we know as our spiritual path is to allow a crippling to encroach upon our search for the source of Light within us. On April 6, 2003, Q’uo said that the conflicts and struggles that we experience are an illusion of our human mind:

One must give oneself permission to be content, and happy, and blessed, for these are not things which are in the training which your culture offers its people. It is not taught among your people that happiness is a natural state, but rather that struggling and competition are the natural state. And each is aware of many ways in which the culture itself offers these lessons to those who are growing and in need of instruction. Always it is the spiritual sense alone that is able to release the conflicts, the struggles, those things which are the truth of the illusion, in order to turn once again to the stunning mystery of oneness, to the love that is all that you see, to the light that has created all that is, without blinking at those things which seem good and which seem evil.

Ourunderstanding, my friends, is that all things are one. Nothing could be simpler than this understanding. To ask for one of the patients, categories, followers of the rainbow, densities, or any other mist or characteristics is to attempt to impose illusion on reality. Reality is not a process. Reality does not change. That which is Light simply is. It is neither active nor passive. It occupies no paradoxes. The beginning and the ending are this unity. At the end of the physical lies all eternity. And yet eternity implies a process, an endless process. My friends, this is true for there are many other lessons to be learned, many other categories to be understood as you grow closer and closer to that which is your beginning and your end. But it is our understanding that there is a point at which eternity itself is no more, and in the eyes of one who truly understands one simply becomes that which is. Becoming is done. The circle is complete. The unity is truly known. It is possible to move closer and closer to this understanding through meditation. We are pleased with this group in that its group desire is aimed largely towards an understanding of the metaphysical. Therefore, we may give you information such as this. It is our desire that we are able to give for the metaphysical information. For information such as this is of the higher type. For information on such things as density and other categorical questions are lesser in their importance to your spiritual journey.

Hatonn went on to say their understanding is that all things are one, and nothing could be simpler than this understanding, and to ask for one of the densities, or any other characteristics, is to impose illusion on reality because reality is not a process; reality does not change; that which is Light simply is, and it is neither active nor passive; it occupies no paradoxes; the beginning and the ending are this unity; at the end of the physical lies all eternity, yet eternity implies a process, an endless process, so this is true for there are many other lessons to be learned as we grow closer to that which is our beginning and our end, but it is Hatonn’s understanding that there is a point at which eternity is no more, and in the eyes of one who truly understands, one becomes that which is; becoming is done; the circle is complete; unity is known, and it is possible to move closer to this understanding through meditation, and they are pleased with this group in that its desire is aimed towards an understanding of the metaphysical, so they may give us information such as this, and it is their desire that they are able to give the metaphysical information, for information such as this is of the higher type, and for information on such things as density and other categorical questions are lesser in their importance to our spiritual journey. On May 2, 1999, Q’uo said that Light simply is:

The entity you are attempting to build is the world soul or the social memory complex, as this instrument would say it. Light simply is. Yet time and space create the need for movement, and it is in becoming aware of graceful movement in habit, in ways of thinking, in disciplines of the personality, in purification of the emotions, that you may reliably hope and trust that you will make progress, that you will at the end of an incarnation be measurably more able to see the self and the other self without significant distortion when first you grasped the fact that you were alone in this illusion and wailed your first wail upon being born.

I am Hatonn. I have been privileged to speak with you this evening. I leave in the love and the light of the Infinite Creator. Adonai, vasu, boragus.

This morning I went upstairs and cleaned the rug in the hall with the carpet sweeper. Then I used a wet mop to clean the floors in all three rooms of Benny’s apartment. Then I went outside and used the garden hose and sprayer attachment to clean the filters for the fountain in the fishpond. Then I fertilized the water lilies and noticed a number of flower buds and one pink one in bloom. Then I added some water to the fishpond and a little AquaSafe to neutralize the chlorine in the fishpond.

This afternoon I visited my neighbor, Calvin, in the Valhalla Nursing Home and brought her a medium-sized chocolate milkshake. We talked for a while about her upcoming move to a nursing home closer to her son’s home in Mount Sterling, KY. Then I showed her some pictures on my iPhone of the flower gardens at the Yew Dell Gardens that Anna and I visited a week ago. I told her I would visit her again before she leaves the Valhalla Nursing Home. On my way home I stopped at Paul’s Fruit Market to buy some food for myself and a tray of Begonias. Then I stopped at Walgreen’s Drug Store to buy some Pepsi-Zero, Kleenexes, and a case of bottled water.

Healing Unwellness

I am of the principle of the Spirit of the Love of Christ. I greet you in the holy name of Jesus the Christ.

Put your hand in front of your face. See the solidity, the careful architecture of its bones and tendons, its sinews, and the delicate covering which sheaths the mighty machine that can do so many, many things.

Gaze at the perfection of the weight-bearing feet which are constructed in such a way that all of the weight of a very large physical body may rest comfortably. And with healthy strides, distance may be eaten up.

Consider the grand and perfect functioning of each and every portion of your physical body and see the beauty of its design. And each time that you may feel the symptom of unwellness of any kind, recall that feeling of honor and pride in the perfection of the design of this body of yours, and know that in each cell that perfection vibrates.

So, thinking upon the word of the Lord, Jesus Christ, remember the perfection of all things and allow the releasing of that which binds you to your unwellness.

We leave you in the peace and the Love of Jesus the Christ. 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 channeling comes from June 29, 1974:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am now with this instrument. As I was saying, we request that you attempt at all times to concentrate your energy on those positive forces within your thinking in order that as you attempt to perform your service to the Creator, you may perform a true service and avoid infringing upon that very service by negativity. It is to be remembered, my friends, that service to others is service to oneself. Notice that we do not say that service to others is like unto service to oneself. There is no similarity between others and ourselves—there is identity. There is completion and unity. Therefore, that which is felt of a negative nature towards a sheep of the flock is felt towards oneself, and is felt towards the Creator. This enters the service which you are attempting to give to yourself and to the Creator through service to another and causes a blot or a stain upon the perfect service you would have performed. It must be remembered that each person is a completely free entity whose independence must in no way be shaken and yet whose identity remains one with you.

It is necessary to walk with the feet of each whom you wish to serve. It is necessary to look through this person’s eyes. And it is necessary to observe precisely what this person is observing. At that time, my friends, you are capable of accepting this person’s oneness with you on an intellectual level. On the level of spirituality there is no need for such detailed understanding. To be one with another person, with a planet, with a rock, with a tree, or with a star, it would all be equally possible. But, you wish your service, and so we speak to you upon the identification of yourself with the person whom you serve.

The theme for this session was that we should attempt at all times to concentrate our energy on those positive forces within our thinking as we attempt to perform our service to the Creator. Hatonn began by saying that they request that we attempt to concentrate our energy on positive forces within our thinking in order that as we attempt to perform our service to the Creator, we may perform a true service and avoid infringing upon that service by negativity, for it is to be remembered that service to others is service to oneself, so notice that we do not say that service to others is like unto service to oneself since there is no similarity between others and our selves, but there is identity, completion, and unity, so that which is felt of a negative nature towards a sheep of the flock is felt towards  our self, and is felt towards the Creator, and this enters the service which we are attempting to give to our self and to the Creator through service to another and causes a stain upon the perfect service we would have performed, so it must be remembered that each person is a free entity whose independence must in no way be shaken and whose identity remains one with us. Then Hatonn said it is necessary to walk with the feet of each whom we wish to serve, and it is necessary to look through this person’s eyes, and it is necessary to observe what this person is observing, so at that time we are capable of accepting this person’s oneness with us on an intellectual level, but on the level of spirituality there is no need for such detailed understanding, so to be one with another person, with a planet, with a rock, with a tree, or with a star, it would all be equally possible, but we wish to know our service, and so Hatonn spoke to us upon the identification of our self with the person whom we serve. On April 26, 2008, Q’uo spoke of how we can be one with another person:

When an entity is so open-hearted that he is able to put himself into another’s shoes and to walk a mile in his shoes, he has indeed performed a creative act. He has accepted his brother as himself. He has taken on his burdens. He has experienced that which he could never experience within his own individual life. This indicates a magical and loving personality with a spiritual maturity that is unique to those who have awakened and who have become able to be magical persons.

I am Hatonn. I am sorry for delay. I will continue. The question then, my friends, is how to understand in a true and final way the identity between yourself and each one whom you serve. There is no intellectual way to do this, my friends. Within the holy work which was recorded following the actions of the master known to you as Jesus lies very revealing passages upon this subject. The master known to you as Jesus said that any one who fed a hungry man or clothed a naked one, or visited those in prison, or helped the widows and orphans had done this for this master’s sake. For even as they had done this to the least of his brothers, they had done it unto him.

We are aware that is almost impossible for the human mind while entrapped in the chemical illusion to truly believe that other men are identical to yourself. Thus, it is far more possible through faith that you may begin to understand that each man whom you wish to serve is the Creator. In a higher source, you and they can merge, and it is this seed which we suggest that you develop in your understanding. We will have great need of your understanding in the days to come. It is important that you do not deal in any negative way with those who would request answers to questions. Therefore, we hope that you will take these thoughts and allow them to grow as you meditate.

Now Hatonn said the question is how to understand in a true way the identity between our self and each one whom we serve, but there is no intellectual way to do this because within the holy work which was recorded following the actions of the Master known to us as Jesus lies revealing passages upon this subject, and the Master known as Jesus said that anyone who fed a hungry man or clothed a naked one, or visited those in prison, or helped the widows and orphans had done this for this Master’s sake, for even as they had done this to the least of His brothers, they had done it unto Him. Hatonn continued by saying that is almost impossible for the human mind, while trapped in the illusion, to believe that other people are identical to our self. Thus, it is possible through faith that we may begin to understand that each person whom we wish to serve is the Creator, and in a higher source, we and they can merge, and it is this seed which Hatonn suggested that we develop in our understanding, so they will have need of our understanding in the days to come, for it is important that we do not deal in any negative way with those who would request answers to questions, so they hoped that we will take these thoughts and allow them to grow as we meditate. On June 3, 1984, Laitos said that through faith we may know that we and everyone else are the Creator:

It is true, my brother, that each of you within your illusion labors under quite, as you would say, adverse conditions, for each of you is the Creator, yet that truth can only be felt to most of your people through faith, for that great veil of which you speak does indeed exist. That veil shields your knowing of your true identity from your conscious mind with great efficiency so that you are as the one who plays the game of cards. You do not know the rules, yet you hold the hand and on the other side of that veil could see clearly each card, each rule, each play, and would do what was most loving with each action and thought. Yet, in your present position, you struggle through a darkness of forgetting, searching for the card and perplexed at the game and learning the rules, shall we say, by trial and by error.

Yet, we say there are no errors, for each experience is a grand effort of the Creator to know Itself, and as you move through your illusion little by little the Light of truth which you see illuminates more and more of your path. The great obstacles which stand before you due to your own ignorance of your identity allow you to achieve a spiritual strength which would not be possible should there be no veil, and should you know that you are the Creator and should you know that without doubt.

Negativity is a type of power. It has many, many manifestations. Those religions which you know of as Oriental or Eastern personify these negative impulses in many beautiful shapes of gods and goddesses. While you who are dwelling within, as you would call it, Western culture, can think of negative manifestations in the terms of Satan and demons. Modern science with its intellectual explanations has derived a great multitude of physiological phrases and descriptions for these negative manifestations. All of these manifestations are indications that those who are aware of them are under the illusion that they are not one with the Creator. They are all expressions of separation and isolation. There is only one true positive method of polarization. It may go by many different names, but you may identify it because of its simple unity, that which is sought being union with the Creator. Under whatever name you may find this, you may be sure that within this path lies positivity.

Hatonn went on to say negativity is a type of power with many manifestations, and those religions which we know of as Oriental personify these negative impulses in beautiful shapes of gods and goddesses, and while we, who are dwelling within the Western culture, can think of negative manifestations in the terms of Satan and demons which modern science, with its intellectual explanations, has derived a multitude of physiological descriptions for these negative manifestations, so all of these manifestations are indications that those who are aware of them are under the illusion that they are not one with the Creator, but they are all expressions of separation, for there is one positive method of polarization, and it may go by different names, but we may identify it because of its unity, that which is sought being union with the Creator, so under whatever name we may find this, we may be sure that within this path lies positivity. On March 7, 1982, Latwii said that which we seek is union with the Creator:

The integration of the mind, the body, and the spirit in the evolutionary progress of union with the Creator is that process which is most necessary for each entity to accomplish upon this planet at this time. This process is most carefully watched over by those entities we have previously described as being the guides, the guardians, the angelic presences.

It has been a great privilege speaking with you this evening. I shall leave this group at this time. I am known to you as Hatonn. It has been my service to speak using these instruments this evening. We shall use the other instruments at another time. Adonai. Adonai vasu.

This morning I went outside and used the trimmer to trim the weeds around the gardens in front of and on both sides of the fishpond and in the pet cemetery.

This afternoon I went outside and trimmed the weeds on the north side of my home and in the gardens in front of my home.

Turn To The Creation

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

The faith of many has been destroyed by dependence upon the outer reality. The outer reality is as a room which no one may clean, and no mop may scour. The eye of man sees many broken things in the outer world and loses heart. Yet before the Spirit can flow through a life, first the heart must be turned to hope.

If hope cannot be found in outer things, then perhaps words have failed, and it is time for the seeker to turn in the direction of the creation to observe those things in the creation which man has not broken or crippled. The song of the bird, the movement of the breeze, and the beauty of sunsets and sunrises still express and manifest the glory and wonder of a perfect creation. When words fail, turn to those things which know not how to avoid manifesting the full consciousness of Love.

We leave you in love and peace, 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 channeling comes from June 23, 1974:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am with you once again, my friends, in the love and the light of our infinite Creator. We are surrounded by Love. You are surrounded by the same Love and that which flows between us makes us one. We are here, my friends, in your skies at this time to speak with those upon your planet who desire to hear our voices. We sing an anthem of praise to the Creator. We offer the rejoicing and the ecstasy of all of these portions of reality in hopes that the Light we share may reflect upon you, and that we may see reflected back a growing awakening of the Light and the portion of reality which deals with each of you. This is a somewhat stately and slow-moving task. We have not been hasty, my friends. We have observed that which we have attempted, and we have in many cases altered our methods. We have tried many new ways as time passed upon your planet, and we are progressing in our program in such a way that we hope to give you the most completely efficient display of that which we have to give you and that we [inaudible].

And what do we have to give you, my friends? We have to give you most of all a door. Only a doorway. Only a suggestion. We have to give you the suggestion of another world. Another complete reality. A reality that transcends this reality, that includes this reality, that explains this reality, that will completely outlast this reality and to which reality you will repair after this brief experience upon the earth plane. We can give you this suggestion of eternity. We can offer you our suggestions as to how to approach this doorway. We have spoken many times of meditation. This is the most efficient way of approaching this door, the desire within you to go through the door and that alone will lead you through. Meditation, my friends, creates the possibility of nearing the door.

Hatonn began this session by saying that over time they had used various ways to give spiritual information to those on Earth who would like to have it. They began by saying they are in our skies at this time to speak with those upon our planet who desire to hear their voices, and they sing an anthem of praise to the Creator, so they offer the rejoicing and the ecstasy of all of these portions of reality in hopes that the Light they share may reflect upon us, and that they may see reflected back a growing awakening of the Light and the portion of reality which deals with each of us, but they have not been hasty as they have observed what they have attempted, so they have altered their methods, and they have tried new ways as time passed upon our planet, and they are progressing in their program in such a way that they hope to give us the most efficient display of that which they have to give us. Hatonn went on to say that they have a doorway to give us, as a suggestion of another world, a reality that transcends this reality, that includes this reality, that explains this reality, that will completely outlast this reality and to which reality we will go after this brief experience upon the Earth, so they can give us this suggestion of eternity, and they can offer us their suggestions as to how to approach this doorway by using meditation since this is the most efficient way of approaching this door, and the desire within us to go through the door and that alone will lead us through. On December 2, 1979, Hatonn described how meditation can help us to experience the true nature of reality:

You must understand that in meditation you are not trying to contact anything. The idea in meditation is one wherein you realize that you are. Not who you are, not where you are, but that you are. That you are aware, that you are in the eternal present. When you feel this, you will feel a sweetness and a closeness to the Creator that comes from breaking through the illusions of space and time and coming into that place where you can simply be who you are. That person is greatly loved by the Creator. And that person can greatly love others.

Thus, we consider meditation quite essential. We also consider that as you meditate and grow in knowledge you then have a responsibility to share what you know with others in whatever path may seem to be open to you. As we have said, the path may be big or small; it may be dramatic; or it may be unnoticed. It may be public or quite private, but whatever it is, it will be your intention to give love and be of service in your little corner of the universe.

What do we have to give you? We have to give you something that you are seeking. It is only important to those who are already aware that they do not have what they are seeking. This is our great difficulty in speaking with you. We can only speak to those who already know that there is something to speak about. To those people to whom reality within the illusion is acceptable, our words will be nothing and less than nothing. To those people who are seeking our words will find a place. Our words will become your words, my friends, as you seek. For as you seek you will find, and as you are seeking upon the same path which we have trod, our thoughts and your thoughts will become as one and we will vibrate in harmony.

What do you seek? You are already aware of the very seed of that which you seek. What are you going to do to seek it? My friends, we suggest that you look at your meditation as the seed which is growing in the rich soil of your physical existence. It will bear fruit within your existence. And the fragrance and the beauty which meditation sheds throughout the illusion will last far beyond the illusory flower, for the gifts of this fruit last forever. Allow the seed of meditation to be endlessly nurtured within each day and, my friends, that which you need to do to bloom will come to you. The fruit which you need to supply to be of service to others will be possible for you to produce. The energy which you need to grow and flourish will be yours, and when you need rest there will be time for rest, for once you are committed to the gentle cycles of eternity the physical illusion very quietly falls into place.

Hatonn continued by saying they have something to give us that we are seeking, but it is only important to those of us who are aware that we do not have what we are seeking, and this is their difficulty in speaking with us, so they can only speak to those of us that already know that there is something to speak about, for to those people to whom reality within the illusion is acceptable, their words will be less than nothing, but to those of us who are seeking their words will find a place, and we will become our words as we seek, for as we seek we will find, and as we are seeking upon the same path which they have traveled, their thoughts and our thoughts will become as one, and we both will vibrate in harmony. Then Hatonn said we are already aware of the seed of that which we seek, and they suggested that we look at our meditation as the seed which is growing in the rich soil of our physical existence, so it will bear fruit within our existence, and the fragrance and the beauty which meditation sheds throughout the illusion will last beyond the illusory flower, for the gifts of this fruit last forever, so we must allow the seed of meditation to be nurtured within each day and, that which we need to do to bloom will come to us, and the fruit which we need to supply to be of service to others will be possible for us to produce, so the energy which we need to grow will be ours, and when we need rest there will be time for rest, for once we are committed to the gentle cycles of eternity the physical illusion very quietly falls into place. On April 18, 1999, Q’uo spoke of how seeking together with them and others seekers can help each of us to find that which we are seeking:

We ask of you only that you listen to our words as to those of a brother or sister, for we are not perfect nor any kind of authority over you but, rather, we are those who are pilgrims on what this instrument calls the King’s Highway. We are in service to the one infinite Creator, and as we seek, we know you also seek this beauty, this truth, this mystery, this way, this life. It is good to have such companions, and as we said, a great blessing to us to be able to be of service in this way. And we thank each.

As we rest in the comfort and the beauty of your blended vibrations, we find ourselves aware of much each of you already knows from experience, from suffering and undergoing great difficulty, from being held together and lifted up by the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator. Each has beautiful stories to tell of those times when everything seemed clear, and the creation truly did seem to be one beautiful, harmonious symphony of people and relationships, and nature, and things great and small, all moving together with rhythm and pulse and a lovely dance that was new every moment.

We are most pleased to be speaking with you. We would like to transfer this contact at this time. I am Hatonn.

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am again with this instrument. I am very happy to be with you and to be able to speak with you. At this time, I will ask if there are any questions.

Questioner: [Inaudible]

Hatonn: I am reluctant to speak ahead of the time appointed. All will be well. You must work, for this is a matter of free will. Do you understand?

Questioner: [Inaudible]

Carla: I’m just not getting anything except a contact point. The contact is just strong. They just… they’re sending Light.

Questioner [Inaudible]

Hatonn: You would understand this section as headquarters. We are a field organization. The activities of our united people are manifold and varied, and we have recourse to a central organism which is somewhat like a computer, but which does not become classified as an inanimate object in your system of understanding as it is at present. This computer-like entity is made of thought and is dimensionless, thus unifying that which is somewhat diverse. This means that instructions may be set in… in a more specific way than by contacts such as this one. This computer-like entity has powers within the realm of mass. We are not operating under this type of [inaudible]. We may work in time [inaudible]. We may speak flexibly [inaudible]. We have different jobs to do. There are conditions under which activities of the central organization and we in the field may merge. These conditions are very stringent.

As to why those particular people were chosen, we can explain it best by telling you that we were looking for people of a specific type of vibration. These were people who have been intended for this particular experience at this particular time. The one known as Uri is an exceptional and rare person in that he is not native to this planet except for his inclination. His powers are only a small part of that which he had awareness of previous to this excursion into this density. Andrija Puharich is a person who has worked within this planet’s influence in other incarnations. His progress through several incarnations along the path of service has been very steady. He has desired to be of service on a planetary level through several lifetimes, and he will be true to this desire. For this reason, we have asked that he be the keeper of this small [inaudible]. What they have seen is a result of who they are. The fact that their vibrations [inaudible] and that they are not either one able to relax and meditate is somewhat regrettable, not because of our convenience but because there is much comfort to the spirit to be found within meditation. When one is weary [inaudible] without meditation discomfort is somewhat [inaudible].

Do we have further questions?

Questioner: What is the purpose of your [inaudible]?

Hatonn: The one who questions knows this answer. It is an advertisement. We are aware that this thought is already within your mind. An advertisement that cannot be proven but an advertisement that has increased in specificity from previous advertisements. We mentioned earlier that we are experimenting, trying new things, attempting to spread our message in each and every way that we can think of that does not revoke the unalterable law of Free Will. You are already aware of the procedure by which doubt may be maintained even though the power of the one known as Uri cannot be disproven. By the same token it cannot be identified.

Questioner: [Inaudible]

Hatonn: We seek power. We find it in your atmosphere. We do not mine or disturb the ecology of your atmosphere, but we are recharged, as it were. It may be that this landing will not occur as planned or will occur in an altered form, for we are not experiencing the degree of acceptance that we had hoped. It is possible for us to accomplish our goal at a slower rate but quite nearly invisible. This may be chosen as a better path.

Questioner: [Inaudible]

Hatonn: My friends, be of good faith. We cannot speak to you directly on this matter. Bring the wisdom that is within you, and you will discover the true answer to your question.

Are there any other questions?

[No further queries.]

My brothers, as I found you, so I leave you: surrounded by Love, made totally one by Light. I am the one known to you as Hatonn. Adonai, my friends.

This morning I went outside and watered the plants around the fishpond, and then I went across the street and put birdseed on the ground, under the bird feeders in front of my neighbor’s home. Later in the morning a friend of mind, who has been editing my book, Living the Law of One 103: The Inner Work, came by to talk with me about his suggested edits for Chapter Three and Chapter Four. Then we had lunch together and talked about various stages of our lives and spiritual journeys.

This afternoon I went outside and transplanted the twelve astilbe that I bought yesterday in the Astilbe Garden in the corner of the back yard. Then I set a sprinkler on them and the Snapdragons in the clay tile pipe pyramid.

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

June 27

The Myth Of Reality

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

The myth of reality continues every moment, and you who experience this myth are hard put to see through it. Reality lies beneath the surface of outer things and beyond the meaning of minds and words. Reality is the province of the Spirit of Love. It is an invisible reality which can only manifest shadows of itself within the outer world.

As you seek to make your life more real, seek within in the innermost portion of your being, for in that stronghold the Spirit of Love holds full sway when given the opportunity.

Look, too, beyond the surface of the outer world into the realm of the beauty of meaning which lies behind what the senses may have you feel. For the Spirit is everywhere immanent, yet never fully disclosed unless one has the desire to see and hear reality.

We leave you in the profound peace of the reality of the consciousness of Love, 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 quote comes from June 13, 1974:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I greet you, my friends, in the love and the light of our infinite Creator. It is as always a great pleasure to speak with you. My brothers and sisters are here to aid you in any way that we can and to send you our thoughts and the Love and the light of the One Who is All.

We are aware that you have questions at this time. We are aware that you wish to know if we are, as you say, robots. No, my friends, we who are speaking to you are individualized portions of consciousness in the same mode of being as are you. The robots or computers that you became acquainted with in your reading about Uri Geller are not of the same type as what you know as robots or computers. It is simpler than it sounds, my friends. The Confederation is a unity of thought and of mind, my friends. There are many portions and types of entities who dwell within this creation who wish to be of service to others and who have joined as brothers and sisters in this Confederation to serve the Creator, each in their own way.

The system which this Confederation uses for communication is not a simple computer as you know it but a construct in a timeless dimension of thought. The thoughts of the Creator which those of the Confederation wish to program and the destination intended for these thoughts can be given instantaneously and delivered instantaneously. There are other abilities that go with this communications system. The limitations of this system are those of your letters. We speak to you as though by telephone and you can answer, and we can adjust our information to adapt to yours. The communications which Geller received were only capable of being given within certain preset parameters. If the answer had not been prepared it could not be given.

The question was whether Hatonn was robots. Hatonn began by saying no, they are individualized portions of consciousness in the same mode of being as we are, and the computers that we became acquainted with in our reading about Uri Geller are not of the same type as what we know as computers, so it is simpler than it sounds because the Confederation is a unity of thought and of mind, and there are many types of entities who dwell within this creation who wish to be of service to others and who have joined as brothers and sisters in this Confederation to serve the Creator, each in their own way. Hatonn went on to say the system which this Confederation uses for communication is not a simple computer as we know it but a construct in a timeless dimension of thought, and the thoughts of the Creator which those of the Confederation wish to program and the destination intended for these thoughts can be delivered instantaneously, and there are other abilities that go with this communication system, but the limitations of this system are those of our letters, so Hatonn speaks to us as though by telephone, and we can answer, and they can adjust their information to adapt to ours, so the communications which Geller received were only capable of being given within certain preset parameters, and if the answer had not been prepared, it could not be given. On March 6, 2006, Q’uo spoke of how a construct can also be used as a means for moving into the fourth density:

If one is able to call forth the energies of graduation by one’s state of mind, shall we say, or state of heart, at the time of death, one goes through the normal moment-of-death experience and the healing experience and, when all of that has occurred, the higher self and the self may decide together that it is time to walk the steps of Light and see if one may graduate.

Now, these steps of Light are a figure of speech that was devised by the part of this principle known as the Ra group to try to describe a very fastidious operation, guarded carefully by unseen friends, in which an entity is given a construct of the different gradations of light up to the very highest level of third density and beginning with the very lowest level of fourth density.

The gradations are all shown equally so there is not a sense of, “Oh, I am approaching fourth density now. I’m going to have to push through.” There is simply an invitation to walk in the Light until the Light feels too strong. Then, it is suggested that you take one step back and stop, and see if that is the best possible Light for you, giving you the best comfort and the best sense of joy. In a way, the graduation process is looking for the place that you belong, if you would accept that construct.

We are within your time dimension. We are here on a special mission. We are the teaching portion of a very vast Confederation. The complexity of this Confederation is only an illusion, as each one of us, by means of our awareness, is constantly and completely aware of the ongoing attitudes and progress of each of the other portions of the Confederation. We do this by achieving, through mediation, our awareness of unity with each other, as we are one in the Creator. We are speaking to you in person because we do not wish to convince you of physical phenomena but to guide your seeking. It is upon your shoulders that a certain carefully arranged service will fall. This service can only be performed by those who have been apprenticed for some time to the discipline of meditation and to the thoughts of the Creator, which only become understood through meditation. The type of contact which occurred with Uri Gellar occurred precisely because these people, in spite of being extremely and unusually positive and powerful individuals, could not seem to be contacted by the means of meditation. Therefore, because these entities had a mission to perform, they were contacted in a more gross and material manner.

Then Hatonn said they are within our time dimension, and they are here on a special mission as the teaching portion of a vast Confederation, but the complexity of this Confederation is an illusion, as each one of them, by means of their awareness, is aware of the ongoing attitudes and progress of each of the other portions of the Confederation, and they do this by achieving, through mediation, their awareness of unity with each other, as they are one in the Creator, and they are speaking to us in person because they do not wish to convince us of physical phenomena but to guide our seeking, so it is upon our shoulders that a carefully arranged service will fall because this service can only be performed when we have used the discipline of meditation to become aware of the thoughts of the Creator, so the type of contact which occurred with Uri Gellar occurred because these people, in spite of being positive and powerful individuals, could not be contacted by the means of meditation, so because these entities had a mission to perform, they were contacted in a more material manner. On February 13, Q’uo spoke of the value of the discipline of meditation:

Imagine yourself as the coins dropping into the box. Now they have not fallen nor are they clasped in the hand. Now they are free to be infinite. And how can you do this for one second without the constant discipline of meditation or some activity which affects you personally in a centering, clearing, and joyful manner? Can you possibly give yourself completely to the experience of the Creator as the Creator truly is without discipline? Can you expect to express Love for one second in its original form without discipline?

You see, my friends, the search for truth is like the addiction which is in this instrument’s mind as the topic of conversation before the meetings. You become addicted to the joy of being whole. This enables you to do a great deal of work, for there are no sales on truth. You will not find it cheaply. There are not bargain days and any who promises will be promising speedy happiness and speedy despair. There are no gimmicks, there are no shortcuts. There are simply glimpses of the utmost joy, feelings of going into another world where all is as beautiful as a thought that you have just had.

I am aware of another question at this time. I am aware that this instrument wishes to know why the meditation group has become smaller. Watch out. Do not be naive. There are cycles in all things. You have sent out one harvest and this harvest is beginning to give its service to others. In time there will be another season, and you will prepare for the further harvest. Meanwhile, that service which you perform is simply to abide in your understanding and to leave the door open for such meditations.

Questioner [Inaudible]

Hatonn: The happening may be swayed by your thinking. It is extremely helpful to project peaceful and optimistic views of the future to replace traumatic visions, for what will happen, will happen, and there is no need to fear. My friend, we do not feel that it is desirable for us to inform you as to the future. The test is in your own mind. It is your tool. You may use it, but you should not let it use you. If a thought is not one which is designed to help yourself or another then it is somewhat suspect. If it is a negative amount of help to yourself or someone else, then it is definitely not a desirable thought. These thoughts are yours. They surround you. They are real. They exist within the etheric realms of your planet. That which you think remains with you and predicts to a certain extent your future. Adjust your thinking, and you adjust your future. This is why we advise you again and again to spend your days in awareness of the creation of the Creator, for there is nothing but Love in the true creation, and your present awareness of this will guide you into calmer waters. This, then, is the test, and we hope that we have guided you in how to meet it. We offer you these ideas hoping they will help you. They are indicative of our methods. We too must meditate to retain contact with that we know to be truth.

I would like at this time to exercise the newer channels and to give a short message to each. I will attempt to transfer this contact to the instrument known as E, if she will avail herself to my contact.

(Carla channeling)

I am with this instrument. I am Hatonn. What is your question?

Questioner: Last night at the group meditation everyone experienced after meditation was over a very high state of… a very… the situation was very… a very high energy. Does this mean that your messages came through at a greater intensity [inaudible] a better understanding [inaudible] because of our seeking or because of our place and our seeking at this time?

Hatonn: I am aware of what you are asking. The energy which you are aware of was the sum of the desire of each person present plus the state of awareness of each person present toward the other people present. This awareness of each other in that particular group was somewhat more unified than several other groups and this increased the energy as well as a fairly unified group desire to obtain information. However, this high energy level does not indicate that you have learned what is spoken. It only indicates a desire to meditate and to learn. Other desires can intervene. We desire for certain types of information as opposed to simply rewards of the Creator. It is a somewhat self-limiting desire since it eliminates some of the more advanced information. This is somewhat ironic, as you would say, because the very desire to obtain the so-called higher information can prevent obtaining higher information due to an incorrect assumption as to the nature of higher information.

The most appropriate way to ensure understanding what is said in an unusually high energy meeting is to allow it to leak over into your everyday thinking during the time following the meditation and if you do this you will discover a way to put this teaching into demonstration. At this point you will begin understanding in a true sense, for that which is not demonstrated is not understood. This is not to say that the high level of energy which you experience is not valuable. It is very valuable, but it must be, like any other power, guided carefully, or its power can be dissipated or wrongly used. Guidance comes from listening rather than predicting.

On February 15, 1998, Q’uo said that guidance also comes from our higher self:

The universe is far from blank. It is filled with the vibration of all that there is. Consequently, guidance is always very, very near. Using one spiritual system to realize guidance for yourself is wise. It organizes the effort made. It gives you some starting points from which to move forward. This instrument, for instance, desires to be led by what she calls the Holy Spirit. In choosing the Holy Spirit this entity has done two things. Firstly, she has chosen, within the mythical system she has felt most kinship to, to trust and cast her loyalty upon a certain kind of entity. Secondly, she has called upon herself, for guidance comes from the deeper or higher self. Each mythical system gives one a way to realize these connections.

We are attempting to gain a somewhat more stable contact, if you will be patient. We have been here, my friends, many times in the past and we have attempted to give to those upon your planet the specific type of information which many seek, but we have discovered that it is an infringement rather than a service in the balance of time. Therefore, higher information, if you may picture it as having any particular characteristic, is characterized by less of a physical specificity and more of a mystical or paradoxical nature. There are abilities within some of the newer channels which will begin to be developed as they gain confidence in delivering these higher messages. They will be people who will be capable of speaking in a more abstract manner. We are satisfied that there are many in groups such as yours and others who will be very capable at this task and will give a very valuable service to more advanced grades of students in the future.

Then Hatonn said we have been here many times in the past, and we have attempted to give to those upon your planet the type of information which many seek, but we have discovered that it is an infringement rather than a service in the balance of time, so higher information is characterized by less of a physical specificity and more of a mystical or paradoxical nature, and there are abilities within some of the newer channels which will begin to be developed as they gain confidence in delivering these higher messages because they will be people who will be capable of speaking in a more abstract manner, and Hatonn is satisfied that there are many who will be capable at this task and will give a valuable service to more advanced grades of students in the future. On September 22, 2007, Q’uo spoke about the paradoxical nature of the spiritual path:

As the seeker grows to know itself better and presses its search, it begins to learn a great many things which seem paradoxical. For the seeker of identity finds that the self is both loving and unloving; both sympathetic and willing to offer consolation and unsympathetic and willing only to judge. All of these awareness of self, then, can begin to be recognized for the healthful and appropriate paradoxes that are a part of being a human being in third density, of being both sides of the dynamics.

When the seeker begins more fully to grasp the contradictory and paradoxical nature of their identity, they begin to see the way ahead in terms of the business of the incarnation in third density, which is to choose between those paradoxes and dynamics and opposites, so that out of the welter of all that there is, and within the limitations of the quirks of personality and the cluster of gifts given, they begin to describe to the self the precise dance that they wish to dance in these few and precious days of human incarnation. They begin to see which song they wish to sing with the little breath that is given them in one lifetime. And they begin to treasure their time and opportunity to make choices and to express the deepest and the highest of ideals, dreams, hopes, and intentions.

Have I answered your question adequately?

Questioner: Yes. Thank you.

Hatonn: I am regretful that it is such a scattered answer, but you were dealing with a somewhat multiple experience, if we may say that within the framework of unity.

Questioner: I have one more question. I would like to ask this question if I may [inaudible].

Carla: [Inaudible]. You’re not going to believe this [inaudible]! All I see is a frog. I can’t possibly channel a frog. Wait a minute. Let me see if I can follow it, OK?

(Carla channeling)

Hatonn: I am sorry for the levity, my friends. Consider the state of a simple frog. This frog is suddenly one day thrust into the wet wonderland which is his home. He is almost transparent when he moves with many others of his kind and evades many enemies. Gradually he attains shape, color, discovers that he can make sound [inaudible], and that he can take life and give it. He discovers that his consciousness is flooded with many thousands of images daily, that he has great power in his hands, and that he has a fate which he must follow. One day the frog is no more, for its body is no longer inhabited and it sinks back into the bottom of the pond from which it originated.

This frog is a very important person to himself. His awareness is very central, and that which he loves and that which he dislikes are very real to him. But, my friends, we who are of the type of entity which you call human are aware that a frog is a frog. Who is right, my friends? We would like to point out the frog is correct; that you are correct; and that both of you are incorrect, for the nature of both is consciousness—consciousness which comes from one source and which is going ultimately to its own source. There is no beginning and no end. There is only the unity, the freedom of [inaudible] and the joy of reunion. Any other opinion of self or meaning of consciousness is quite real but is unreal.

There is always much you may do to be of service. There are always lessons to learn. There is a reality to illusion, but, my friends, remember the frog. You are a prince to yourself, and your right and your wrong are extremely important, and that which you love and that which you dislike are very real to you. But you are only a [inaudible] and there is much hope. Allow your consciousness to rise into the light which created you, and ultimately the questions will be answered for you will know that you are where you are and who you are, and that all is well.

I would like to transfer this contact to the instrument known as T, if he will avail himself to my contact.

(T channeling)

I am Hatonn. [Inaudible].

(Unknown channeling)

I am now with this instrument. I was speaking of service and we are aware…

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I greet you once more, my friends, in the love and in the light of our infinite Creator. It is a great privilege to be able to be attempting to aid you in your seeking. We are aware of your questions, and we will attempt to answer them. The acquisition of understanding is not the phenomenon which you think it is, my friends. The acquisition of understanding is part and parcel of something much more basic. It does not come before this basic quality but rather is a result of this basic quality. One can only acquire understanding to the level at which one’s desire has led them. Desire, my friends, is also not what you think it is. Desire is a great deal more than you think it is. The desire of a person is the person. It is their directional movement. This motion is the expression of their basic consciousness and is the most basic thing about them.

Now, your question is not answered by these facts, but they are necessary facts to understand before we can give you an answer. What one desires, my friends, and the purity of that desire, becomes and is the individual once they are aware that this is true. The one who is centered within their desire becomes whole and unified. This life, my friends, is a whole, it is one thing: an interconnected galaxy of time and space and meaning. Nothing may be untwined from anything else, for all is one. There is no strain or confusion in one’s life, for they are aware at all time of who they are. They are the one who desires that which they desire. They are a seeker after truth. They are on a path. That which the path offers to them is what they are looking at, is what they are learning, and is what they are demonstrating. If they  discover that they have not followed all of their steps they learn from this discovery and never leave the pattern of their desire.

Now Hatonn speaks about the acquisition of understanding by saying the acquisition of understanding is not the phenomenon which we think it is since it is part of something more basic, and it does not come before this basic quality but is a result of this basic quality, and one can only acquire understanding to the level at which one’s desire has led them because more than we think it is, so the desire of a person is the person, their directional movement, and this motion is the expression of their basic consciousness and is the most basic thing about them. Then Hatonn said our question is not answered by these facts, but they are necessary facts to understand before they can give us an answer, so what we desire and the purity of that desire becomes the individual once we are aware that this is true, and the one who is centered within their desire becomes unified, and this life is one thing: an interconnected galaxy of time and space and meaning, so nothing may be untwined from anything else, for all is one, and there is no strain or confusion in our life, for we are aware at all time of who we are, so we are the one who desires that which we desire as a seeker after truth on a path, and that which the path offers to us is what we are looking at, is what we are learning, and is what we are demonstrating, and if we discover that we have not followed all of their steps we learn from this discovery and never leave the pattern of our desire. On May 7, 2000, Q’uo described how we are seekers after truth:

You are, little by little, and step by step, gaining in experience and awareness, and each of you is on a path of strong progression. We encourage each of you to come into a fuller understanding, as time goes on, of the meaning of imperfection. It was not intended that third density be an illusion in which any conscious seeker after truth could honestly perceive the self as perfect. It was, in fact, designed into third-density experience that from beginning to end each person’s personal experience will include perceptions of the self as being subtly or grossly imperfect, not once, not twice, not three times, but seven times and seven times seven. In other words, cyclically without an end throughout the incarnational experience.

This would seem to be a recipe for discouragement, heavy-heartedness, and feelings of hopelessness. And yet the actual intent is the opposite. You see, as the spirit awakens this process of spiritual and mental evolution begins to accelerate. Whereas before awakening you were content to skate upon the surface of life as though it were a pond, once you have awakened you are aware of and drawn to the depths of each present moment. The profundities, implications, resonances, and overtones of each present moment are infinite. The learning in each present moment is potentially infinite. The gateway to intelligent infinity lies within each present moment. As the spirit awakens it becomes gradually more able to hear the far more complex symphony of messages that are coming in within each present moment.

You may, if you like, compare this self-aware existence with a knitted garment. Each stitch is interconnected with each other stitch. As it comes off the needles it is held safely in place. My friends, the attempt to analyze one’s life by means of external and intellectual concepts is much like removing one’s stitches from the needles. It is very easy for them to get misplaced or temporarily lost, and it may take some time for these stitches to be properly discovered again and put back into pattern. Therefore, it is much better to do without this intellectual picking. It is much better to simply accept one’s existence and realize at all times who one is and what one is seeking. If one can do this, it matters not whether one is sick or well, or whether one is rich or poor, for these things are minor details having little to do with the purpose for which your life has been dedicated.

The seeking which led you to this meeting also leads you to each item of information which you obtain. My friends, if your seeking is not ready to absorb this information, then you will not demonstrate this information, and you will therefore not have this information. It will not be your information. That which is not seen through you is not within you. There is indeed the possibility of what this channel sometimes calls cosmic indigestion. However, this is not the fault of the information or the fault of the entity who is not completely ready to demonstrate this information. It is simply a slight mismatching of information and it makes no difference to the seeking.

Hatonn went on to say we may compare this self-aware existence with a knitted garment where each stitch is interconnected with each other stitch, and as it comes off the needles it is held in place, so the attempt to analyze our life by means of external and intellectual concepts is like removing our stitches from the needles, and it is easy for them to get misplaced, and it may take some time for these stitches to be properly discovered again and put back into pattern, so it is better to accept our existence and realize who we are and what we are seeking, and if we can do this, it matters not whether we are sick or well, or rich or poor, for these things are minor details having little to do with the purpose for which our life has been dedicated. Hatonn continued by saying the seeking which led us to this meeting also leads us to each item of information which we obtain, and if our seeking is not ready to absorb this information, then we will not demonstrate this information, and we will not have this information, and it will not be our information, for that which is not seen through us is not within us, so there is the possibility of what Carla calls cosmic indigestion, but this is not the fault of the information or the fault of the entity who is not completely ready to demonstrate this information, but it is a mismatching of information, and it makes no difference to the seeking. On January 7, 2008, Q’uo described one way that we may be able to absorb more information and help others to do the same:

As this entity is becoming more and more able to use his intellect and to absorb information of this nature, it may be helpful to drop little seeds by having books around and speaking of them, so that he may choose, at a time that feels right to him, to begin to do some reading about these unseen worlds and to begin to explore that which is occurring to him for himself. It may be that he may do the work of coming to understand his gift all by himself. Leaving the books where he has access to them will be helpful.

The true difficulty which you experienced was due to your intellectual efforts to analyze and to predict items which were beyond your intellectual ability. There are many things which one may think, and each is a Creator. Each person creates many, many thoughts and, my friends, they live with these thoughts. These thoughts are their thoughts. They are not created to fly away. Each creates them to surround them, and they surround them more and more as they think upon the same thoughts. If you wish to have a certain thought about you, then think it, my friends. If the thought which you are entertaining is not full of faith, hope, charity, love, and concern for the spiritual welfare of your fellow beings then you may put those thoughts aside and you will not be responsible for their generation.

If you could be in the dimension which immediately follows yours along the scales of planes you would see your thoughts, my friends. You would see your emotions. You would discover for yourself how very undesirable it is to surround yourself with those things which cause fear, sickness, pain, and lack. My friends, you would see the great strides that can be made by the constant generation of thoughts of the Creator. The intellect cannot understand these matters, and for this reason we had you meditate to make you more conscious of the Creator’s thoughts. We can only approximate with words what we are attempting to tell you, and that is that your difficulties are due to your own ability to create by intellectual thought that which you feel that you desire intellectually but in truth certainly do not desire. Concentrate upon your desires, my friends. Do not be afraid of any information but only know who you are and what you desire.

Hatonn continued by saying the difficulty which we experienced was due to our intellectual efforts to analyze and to predict items which were beyond our intellectual ability because there are many things which we may think, and each is a Creator, so each person creates many thoughts, and we live with these thoughts since these thoughts are our thoughts, and they surround us more as we think upon them, so if we wish to have a certain thought, then think it, but if the thought which we are entertaining is not full of faith, love, and concern for the spiritual welfare of your fellow beings then we may put those thoughts aside, and we will not be responsible for their generation. Now Hatonn said if we could be in the dimension which follows ours we would see our thoughts, our emotions, and we would discover how undesirable it is to surround our self with those things which cause fear, sickness, and pain, and we would see the strides that can be made by the constant generation of thoughts of the Creator, but our intellect cannot understand these matters, and for this reason they had us meditate to make us more conscious of the Creator’s thoughts, but Hatonn can only approximate with words what they are attempting to tell us, and that is that our difficulties are due to our own ability to create by intellectual thought that which they feel that we desire intellectually but in truth do not desire, so concentrate upon our desires, and do not be afraid of any information, but only know who we are and what we desire. On November 12, 2006, Q’uo described who we are:

When you are tempted to feel helpless, hopeless, and despairing, we would encourage you to remember that you do not need to relate to some idea of the Creator and please the Creator. Neither do you need to relate to the world and in some way please the world. In terms of your spiritual work, you have only yourself to please.

When you see before you your own statement, “I feel helpless; I feel hopeless; I feel despair,” how do you think your highest and best self would respond to that complaint? You see, my sister, the answers lie within you already. By merely encouraging your own process a bit, we believe you may see the answers flowing into place before you.

You are not helpless. You are a person of infinite power. You are not hopeless, unless you choose to take that pose and stand as a statue, ignoring the movements of life. You may well be despairing because you have allowed yourself to identify the illusion as the realest portion of your life. In actuality, in terms of spiritual evolution, that which occurs outside of your mind is food for the mill. The pay dirt of spiritual seeking lies not in circumstances but in how you choose to respond to them.

There are always reasons to despair. There are always reasons to be intimidated. That which this instrument calls the loyal opposition would be delighted to see entities give up those faculties of hope and faith that make people unreasonably optimistic. We, on the other hand, would encourage you to see that if you choose to stand knowing who you are, your feet planted upon the soil of your life, and your experience, and your arms stretched in praise and thanksgiving to the Creator of all things, you are a person of great power.

If you so choose to adopt and embrace faith, no suffering can break you, for you choose the truth, and all else is illusion. If you choose hope, those wings shall fly you where you need to go. For each entity, morale and attitude are a matter of choice. There is no limitation which can keep an entity from grooming and settling their own mind and their own heart along the lines of peace and joy and thankfulness if they so desire to seek those levels of being within. And, my sister, as each entity does these things, so the world will change.

We send you our love and our light, for we are one with you. We send you all of the creation, for we are one with the creation. We send you great beauty. Galaxies of bursting stars. We send you many thoughts, and many dreams, and great ecstasy. All of these things are in the creations of the Creator, and they are yours, my friends. We hope that we have been able to be of service. We urge you to lift up your heart, for there is much to rejoice concerning.

I am desirous at this time of speaking for a time with each of you, if you will avail yourself to my contact. I will attempt to contact at this time the instrument known as T. I am Hatonn.

[Tape ends.]

This morning I had a phone conversation with a woman in Cincinnati that has had a difficult life with her husband who seems to be filled with hatred for his life, his work, and could well be a narcissist because he seldom thinks of the welfare of his wife or their daughter. But this morning she told me that a couple of days ago she had a download that gave her the sure knowledge that all of her life was now moving through a transformation into more love and unity all around her. For over half an hour she shared more and more the epiphanies that had occurred over these last two days, and I could hardly believe what I was hearing. But I was also feeling so grateful that her life had taken such an inspirational turn. I am certainly looking forward to our phone call next week!

This afternoon I was on a zoom meet with my two friends of over fifty years that we have every six weeks or so. After we did our usual check-in we read from Session #46 of the Ra Contact where Don was asking Ra what the best way was to deal with our cat, Gandalph’s cancerous growths. Then there were questions and answers that dealt with how positive and negative entities would use the catalyst of anger that could produce cancer. Then we read from the book Living Buddha, Living Christ by Tich Nhat Hanh where information about prayers and meditation for both Christians and Buddhists was discussed.

The Spirit Speaks Through You

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

There are times when those who wish to seek the Spirit of Love find themselves unable to perceive that which has been given but which is blocked by some error of human thought within the seeker.

Yet this apparent lack of contact lived in a life of faith is not a troublesome matter, for the faithful seeker knows that the Spirit is always active in those who seek the Spirit. Thus, by faith it is understood that Christ’s power does not come into the world here and not there, but is everywhere.

Moreover, how many, many times is someone blocked from Christ’s consciousness, yet given the grace to be that consciousness for another? So may seeker encourage seeker and Spirit encourage spirit.

Let not your tongues be silent when you may speak words of sympathy and encouragement to others. For the Spirit speaks through you and heals the world.

May the peace of Love be yours, 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 Hatonn channeling comes from May 28, 1974:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I greet you, my friends, in the love and in the light of our infinite Creator. It is my privilege to speak with you. I am aware of your question. The fear of, as you say, being possessed is a somewhat over-generalized fear. We may assure you that you have nothing to fear if you are under a certain amount of correct understanding as to the nature of what you know as possession. There are basically two types of so-called possession. The first type is extremely rare, but does occasionally occur and can be dealt with specifically. The second type is extremely common and can be dealt with quite specifically.

The first type of possession is the so-called actual possession of one sentient being’s physical vehicle by the consciousness of another individual. Whether the possessing individual be in the physical or removed from the physical is of no consequence. Possession is the same phenomenon. The reason for the possession is simply opportunity and a possessing entity who desires to take such an opportunity. This type of possession is extremely rare for two reasons. First, there are not a great many possessing entities who are seeking an opportunity to enter a vehicle not their own. Also, the dissociation of consciousness that is required in order to provide a reasonable opportunity must be somewhat extreme and reliable. The difficulties connected with great changes such as becoming an adult in the physical sense may make an entity given to dissociation more vulnerable to such dissociation. It is only in cases of extreme dissociation that the opportunity for a possessing entity to come in is available.

Once such a condition has been understood, it can be treated. It requires only that the condition be recognized and that appropriate measures be used in order to alert the consciousness of the entity who has been pushed aside by the possessing entity. The entity who has been pushed aside has a sovereign right to the physical vehicle from which he has been temporarily removed. Depending upon the type of culture and normal usage which the original entity has been accustomed to, the alerting mechanism or ritual designed to attract his attention will somewhat vary. Within some cultures, certain religious rituals are observed. Once the original entity whose physical vehicle it is has been alerted the entity need only assert correct and rightful ownership of the physical vehicle and it will be necessary for the possessing entity to depart.

The group question concerned the concept of possession: “There are basically two types of so-called possession. The first type is extremely rare, but does occasionally occur and can be dealt with specifically.” Hatonn began by saying the first type of possession is the possession of one being’s body by the consciousness of another individual, so whether the possessing individual be in the physical or removed from the physical is of no consequence since possession is the same phenomenon, and the reason for the possession is the opportunity, and a possessing entity who desires to take such an opportunity, so this type of possession is rare for two reasons, so first there are not many possessing entities who are seeking an opportunity to enter a vehicle not their own, and the dissociation of consciousness that is required in order to provide a reasonable opportunity must be extreme and reliable, for the difficulties connected with great changes such as becoming an adult in the physical sense may make an entity given to dissociation more vulnerable to such dissociation, and it is only in cases of extreme dissociation that the opportunity for a possessing entity to come in is available. Hatonn continued by saying once such a condition has been understood, it can be treated, and it requires that the condition be recognized, and that appropriate measures be used in order to alert the consciousness of the entity who has been pushed aside by the possessing entity because the entity who has been pushed aside has a right to the physical vehicle from which he has been temporarily removed, and depending upon the type of culture which the original entity has been accustomed to, the ritual designed to attract his attention will vary, so within some cultures certain religious rituals are observed, and once the original entity whose physical vehicle it is has been alerted, the entity need only assert rightful ownership of the physical vehicle, and it will be necessary for the possessing entity to depart. On November 21, 2015, Q’uo described the nature of a possessing entity that may take over another person’s physical vehicle:

When one undergoes changes in the personality, it almost inevitably occurs that there are certain older patterns of behavior which are shown increasingly to have no further use, which it would be well for the personality to be able to slough off so as to move into a more robust or healthy configuration. However, these older personality features, these older patterns of behavior or forms that have been invested over the years with a certain energy, this energy has a life of its own, if you will. It is as if there were a little possessing entity that has learned to live within a larger host organism, and having taken up a home in certain portions of the organism, is reluctant to give up this home, is reluctant to give up the authority which it has found it enjoys exercising within this portion of the personal being.

The second type of possession is much, much more common. It is as common as the first type is rare. This type of possession is the possession of the balanced individual consciousness by certain portions of that same consciousness. There are many, many phases of your desire with which you came to this incarnation. It is the great lesson of your ancient teachers that you must know yourself. It is your job in whatever way you choose to discover who you are, what you desire from this experience, and how you desire to prosecute these desires. When your desires are not recognized by yourself, when you have overlooked a portion of your total self and are therefore not attempting to learn those things which you came to learn, these portions of yourself which are then frustrated may become somehow loosened from their integrated place within your consciousness and they may attempt to attract your attention in ways you do not understand. They may attract your attention by causing pain. This always attracts attention while the person is conscious of physical programs.

And very often, when there are people of the consciousness that have not been heard they then became heard in this way. This is possession by self. You may be possessed as a result of negative or positive emotion. However, my friends, due to the type of experience which you seek to learn within this vibration and due to the type of group illusion which the people of your planet labor under, for the most part these are types of experiences of a negative appearance. They may be treated by understanding. The more that you can discover what lies behind pain the more you may remove the pain. In truth, there is no such thing as any sort of difficulty such as you have spoken of. It is all, shall we say, in your mind. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate your mind. There you will find your possessing and by understanding the message which is being brought to you by these subconscious means you may redirect your thought into a more positive and upward path. It is sometimes the work of [inaudible].

You have demonstrated patience already, and this is a prime qualification for study, for in this path of spiritual gain, my friends, it is important to go slowly enough so that you may assimilate, learn, demonstrate and become one with each piece of new information. To go more quickly than your true understanding can take you is to become unbalanced and prey to a great deal of confusion. Meditate and seek to understand yourself, for within your mind is all that there is.

Then Hatonn said the second type of possession is more common, and this type of possession is the possession of the balanced individual consciousness by certain portions of that same consciousness, and there are many phases of our desire with which we came to this incarnation, and it is the lesson of our ancient teachers that we must know our self, so it is our job in whatever way we choose to discover who we are, what we desire from this experience, and how we desire to follow these desires, but when our desires are not recognized, and we have overlooked a portion of our total self and are not attempting to learn those things which we came to learn, these portions of our self which are frustrated may become loosened from their integrated place within our consciousness, and they may attempt to attract our attention in ways we do not understand by causing pain, so this always attracts our attention while we are conscious of physical programs. Hatonn continued by saying we may be possessed as a result of negative or positive emotion, so due to the type of group illusion which we labor under, these are types of experiences of a negative appearance, and they may be treated by understanding, so the more that we can discover what lies behind pain the more we may remove the pain, and there is no such thing as any difficulty such as we have spoken of because it is all in our mind, so it is necessary to investigate our mind, and there we will find our possessing, and by understanding the message which is brought to us by these subconscious means we may redirect our thought into a positive path, for we have demonstrated patience, and this is a prime qualification for study, for in this path of spiritual gain it is important to go slowly enough so that we may become one with each piece of new information since to go more quickly than our understanding can take us is to become unbalanced and prey to confusion, so we must meditate and seek to understand our self, for within our mind is all that there is. On May 28, 1989, Q’uo spoke of how we may use meditation to seek to understand and reprogram our self:

Thus, it is our recommendation that each entity seek to understand and to identify those biases or programmings which are prominent within the life pattern and to trace these behaviors of thought, of word, and of action to their deepest source within the being, and to then note the effect that these programmings have brought about within the point of view or attitude of the entity. It is well to enter into the daily round of activities without pretense or predisposition to, shall we say, clamp down upon the self certain behaviors due to their being felt to be of an unhelpful nature, but rather to allow the natural response in each situation to find its expression within the self and to work with that response at a later time when the emotional coloration has left the mind and to work in the contemplative or prayerful or meditative state with these spontaneous responses in order that they might be enhanced to the point that their logical conclusion is seen and felt within the being.

At this point it is then possible that the appropriate complement that is meant to be drawn to the entity through these spontaneous experiences will make itself known as well within the field of vision of the inner eye. When this has occurred with equal intensity, then, at the deepest level of awareness possible for the seeker, it may be seen that the life pattern has the purpose in this instance of allowing this range of experience to be had in the life pattern in order that certain opportunities and lessons and services might be made available.

Thus, it is our recommendation that the conscious working with catalyst, that which may be called the reprogramming, be done as a function of the natural experience that forms the life pattern and be done in a conscious fashion with the desire to penetrate to the heart of the experience so that the surface appearance is soon left behind and the deeper significance is discovered, buried layer upon layer within the symbolic formation of this programming within the entity’s life pattern.

At this time, I would like to attempt to transfer this contract to another instrument. I am Hatonn.

[Pause]

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am again with this instrument. My friends, we wished to communicate through the instrument known as Don because we wished to use a word for word type of communication which this instrument is somewhat reluctant to attempt. There is some difficulty with this instrument and therefore we request that you wait if you can, until a later time for this message. Is that satisfactory to you? Are there further questions which this instrument may attempt to answer?

Questioner: What do you mean by dissociation?

Hatonn: The instrument had this word within her vocabulary, and although it is not entirely correct, it seemed closer to the concept which we gave than any other. By that word we intended to convey the concept of the certain unit of individualized consciousness that for some reason had such a mismatching within its own vibration that it temporarily was not able to function as a unified portion of consciousness.

Questioner: You said to take your problems to meditation. Do you mean to sit and think on the problem all through the meditation, or do you ask and then clear your mind?

Hatonn: Neither. It is not necessary to ask for any information in meditation. Nor is it necessary to concentrate on any problem. Meditation is not a specifier or a prescription technique. Meditation is the transfer of your consciousness from the phase of existence which lies within the perimeters of your physical illusion to the phase of consciousness which lies within the perimeters of the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator. It is a transfer from that person of your soul within a physical vehicle to that totality of soul which is your individualized consciousness within the total consciousness of the Creator. This contact gives one a general and non-analyzable understanding. When problems are seen in the light of this understanding it is most often the case that they will evaporate naturally and as dew evaporates. It is not that the dew is unreal. It is simply that it is one state within a perfectly reasonable and constructive cycle which gives life and nourishment to part of the natural creation.

Questioner asked: “You said to take your problems to meditation. Do you mean to sit and think on the problem all through the meditation, or do you ask and then clear your mind?” Hatonn began by saying neither is true because it is not necessary to ask for any information in meditation, nor is it necessary to concentrate on any problem since meditation is not a prescription technique, but it is the transfer of our consciousness from the phase of existence which lies within the boundaries of our physical illusion to the phase of consciousness which lies within the infinity of the Love and the Light of the infinite Creator, so it is a transfer from that person of our soul within a physical vehicle to that totality of soul which is our individualized consciousness within the total consciousness of the Creator, and this contact gives us a general understanding so that when problems are seen in the light of this understanding it is often the case that they will evaporate naturally as dew evaporates, and it is not that dew is unreal, but it is that it is one state within a constructive cycle which gives life and nourishment to part of the natural creation. On August 31, 1980, Hatonn described how we may heal our problems because we are all part of the natural creation:

All things may be discovered to have some use in the natural creation. You yourselves, my friends, are part of that creation. When you become able through simplification of your complex thought processes to become aware of the one original Thought of Love, you then rejoin the creation of the Creator and stop co-creating the more complex creation of man.

My friends, it is such a pleasure to speak with you and to serve you in way that we can. We are so pleased to speak with you and we are so pleased at all times to be in contact with you. We send you the love and the light of the Creator at all times. We will leave you at this time if there are no more questions. We leave you in the love and in the light of our infinite Creator. I am Hatonn. Adonai vasu.

This morning I went outside and put fresh sugar syrup in my two hummingbird feeders and the feeder in my neighbor’s yard across the street. Then I used my chainsaw to cut up three small Honeysuckle trees that I cut out of the Forsythia Bushes in my back yard yesterday, and I put them in a garbage can for yard waste pickup tomorrow.

This afternoon I used my trimmer to weed the weeds in the stone walkway around the fishpond and around the gardens that surround the fishpond.

Bless Your Brokenness

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

As you see yourself moving into the world of business and matters, objects, and circumstances, you may well see yourself to be inadequate to or broken by all of these worldly things. See and bless this brokenness.

I say “bless” because to be broken is the blessing of the fruit that is to be eaten; of the loaf that is to be shared; of the limited, inadequate thing which may become not only enough but much more than enough.

Open your inner being to the consciousness of Love which the spirit of Jesus the Christ offers. Bless and give thanks for your limitations and then open the heart to the action of the consciousness of infinite love and you shall see how all has been created perfectly.

We leave you in the peace and the love of Jesus the Christ. 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 channeling comes from May 25, 1974:

(Carla channeling)

Greetings, my friends. I am Hatonn. I greet you in the love and the light of our infinite Creator. We are privileged to be speaking with you, and we will be conditioning you. It has been extremely difficult to make this contact for this instrument is not very relaxed. However, we will attempt to speak only very briefly.

My friends, we would like to say a few words about the nature of the physical illusion. At the time at which each of you incarnated, my friends, each of you was aware that certain lessons, hitherto unlearned, were to be the goals for achievement of this incarnation. If it seems to you, my friends, that your entire incarnation within this illusion has been a series of difficulties of one particular type, then you are almost certainly aware in some manner of one of your lessons. As you can see, these lessons are not to be avoided. They are to be learned.

Further, we must point out to you that when a confrontation in such a lesson has been achieved, that which separates you from understanding it is most often your own thinking. Your conscious thinking processes are quite capable of being self-destructive in the sense that they may aid you to avoid the lesson that you wish in reality to learn. Therefore, my friends, as you approach a lesson, we suggest that if it is possible to achieve a temporary abeyance of the conscious, analytical processes, then, my friends, you may return to the problem with a much clearer mentality, ready to learn what you came to this experience to learn, rather than only to avoid what you came to learn.

We know how difficult it is to achieve the meditative state at all times, for we have been where you are, and we are aware of that particular type of illusion that you call physical. We urge you, therefore, to depend on meditation of a formal kind. Then to attempt a semi-meditative state, and by this, my friends, to simply achieve a state of attention also so that your destructive impulses are not free to completely clog your mind and keep you from learning the lessons you came to learn.

We would like to contact each of the other instruments. However, we are aware that there is some difficulty. We will at this time, however, attempt to contact the instrument known as Don.

Then on May 26, 1974, Carla channeled Hatonn:

(Carla channeling)

I greet you in the love and in the light of our infinite Creator. I am the one known to you as Hatonn. We are in a craft far above your planet. We are very, very privileged to be speaking with you at this time. And we greet each of you. Laitos will be conditioning each of you who desires it as I speak.

I wonder this evening, my friends, if you have allowed yourself during this day to rest in the enormous ocean of Love which is yours if you realize it to be yours. Have you allowed yourself to soak up the infinite Light and Love of your Creator during this day? Or, my friends, has it been a day during which you felt some lack of this Love in which you felt that you were separated from the sunlight and the warmth of life? We are aware that the very nature of the physical illusion is such that the individual who is enjoying this illusion experiences many sensations of seeming separation and lack of Love. My friends, we can only tell you that this is an illusion. If you allow yourself through meditation to seek reality, you will quickly discover the vast and limitless ocean of Love which bathes the entire creation of the Creator. There is nothing but this Love. Not only is it all about you, but, my friends, it is you in that each fiber of your soul and your physical being is composed of Love and Light.

Due to this heavy sense of illusion, my friends, it is very possible for you to experience the pain of this lack. It is often intensified in its negative effect by an accompanying belief in the reality of what you know as time. When you experience illusory lack, it is also very easy to further assume that this lack will be for a certain amount of time which seems to be extremely long. My friends, within meditation make contact with the timeless, the infinite, the eternal truth of creation. Discover Love and Light of the Creator. It is all about, and if you are able to make contact it may flow to you and through you, so that you are lifted upward along the spiritual path and are finally free of the illusion. These experiences are necessary to you, my friends. They are simply your means of spiritually growing while you enjoy the physical experience. However, you need not be limited by the difficulties of this illusory existence. While you are learning you may also go within, my friends, and speed your learning considerably by contact with all that there is.

Hatonn began speaking about the nature of our experience of the Love and Light of the Creator when they asked  if we have allowed our self to rest in the ocean of Love which is ours if we realize it to be ours, and they asked: “Have we allowed our self to soak up the infinite Light and Love of our Creator during this day? Or has it been a day during which we felt lack of this Love in which we felt that we were separated from the sunlight and the warmth of life?” Then Hatonn said they are aware that the nature of the physical illusion is such that the individual who is enjoying this illusion experiences many sensations of seeming separation and lack of Love, but this is an illusion, and if we allow our self through meditation to seek reality, we will discover the limitless ocean of Love which bathes the entire creation of the Creator, so there is nothing but this Love, and not only is it all about us, but it is us in that each fiber of our soul and our physical being is composed of Love and Light. On April 15, 1984, Hatonn spoke of what it is for us to live in an ocean of Love:

Let us dwell now upon this joy, for we would wish that you would feel more fully that which you wish to give. We wish to take you with us into etherean heights in which colors dazzle, and Light sings with joy. Your spirits are as beautiful as gems, and they are all worthy to be lifted up into the Light, the all-pervading, limitless Light that makes all One. Where can you go that Light is not when you are in meditation, and you have asked to see that which is? Nowhere, my friends, is there a lack of any kind. Nowhere is there darkness or shadow. Let your hearts rest upon the gentle current of the ocean of Love. Let your weariness fade away as you bask in the one original Thought. Yes, you must come back, and yes, your memory will be imperfect, and your expression will not accurately reflect the totality of your understanding. The illusion is too often too heavy for you to be able to remember. And so, you must go back and yet again back, and if you cannot remember, again. Persist, and the word is a knowledge that has no words, a joy that has no bounds, and an expression that is limitless.

I would like to transfer this contact at this time to the one known as T if he would avail himself.

Then on May 27, 1974, Carla channeled Hatonn:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I greet you, my friends, in the love and the light of our infinite Creator. It is our privilege to speak with you again this evening. It is always our pleasure to aid those who are seeking understanding. We will be with each of you and will condition each of you who desires it.

My friends, as we experience this present awareness of shared fellowship with you our hearts are very light. We are, as you would say, very happy to be speaking with you. My friends, we are always very happy. We suggest that you look around yourselves and inquire of yourself as to what portion of your creation seems to be always at peace or happy. You will find, my friends, that it is the creation of the Creator that remains in equilibrium while the creation of man of Earth has many unhappy phases.

It is for this reason, my friends, that existence in a more remote area causes one to experience more peace of mind. This is a natural consequence of additional amounts of exposure to the creation of the Creator. This creation may be seen at its most accessible in less populated places, my friends. But, in reality, it is all around you no matter where you may be. It begins with yourself. Through meditation you may remain constantly in contact with the real creation. You may feel the equilibrium of the Creator’s creation and you may, as are we, be happy, as you call it. This happiness is simply the awareness that you are a part of all that there is. It is a simple awareness and defies definition of any kind. It is only in the creation of man on Earth that individuals require definitions. Definitions, and distinctions, and disassociations are all separations from the Creator’s plan of unity. And if the following of those will inevitably cause what you know as unhappiness, allow yourself through meditation to be aware of the true creation.

Hatonn spoke about how our creation may be happy or unhappy when they said as they experienced this awareness of shared fellowship with us their hearts are light, and they are always very happy, and they suggested that we look around and inquire of our self as to what portion of our creation seems to be always happy, so we will find that it is the creation of the Creator that remains in equilibrium while the creation of man of Earth has many unhappy phases. Hatonn went on to say it is for this reason that existence in a remote area causes one to experience more peace of mind, and this is a natural consequence of additional amounts of exposure to the creation of the Creator, so this creation may be seen at its most accessible in less populated places, but it is all around us no matter where we may be since it begins with our self, and through meditation we may remain in contact with the creation, and we may feel the equilibrium of the Creator’s creation, and we may be happy, since this happiness is the awareness that we are a part of all that there is, for it is a simple awareness and defies definition of any kind because it is only in the creation of the people of Earth that individuals require definitions because definitions, and disassociations are all separations from the Creator’s plan of unity, and if following those will inevitably cause what we know as unhappiness, we can allow our self through meditation to be aware of the true creation. On January 31, 1975, Hatonn said that through meditation we can find that the true creation is all around us and within us:

Use your time for meditation and contemplation of the true creation; that which is you; and that which surrounds you. Become aware of this, my friends, and you will begin to understand what we are attempting to deliver unto you. Your people are not even aware of themselves. This awareness will grow, as you avail yourself in meditation. As this awareness grows, you will more closely attune your thinking to that which was intended by the Creator of us all. As your thinking becomes more attuned, you will begin to experience that which was intended. This has been experienced by some of your people. It may happen at any time and in any physical incarnation, as you speak of it, and this may have occurred to you as an individual in some earlier experience.

We can only suggest this. We cannot speak in such a way as to demonstrate this truth. It is completely up to you. We can tell you of advantages to be gained in meditation, and we can change you towards obtaining a stronger contact with reality. But, my friends, you are a free creation, an entity with a mind and will completely sovereign. It is totally within your province of choice as to what you wish to do with each succeeding moment of your conscious awareness within this incarnation. We are aware that you are seeking, for you are here now. We can encourage you, urge you, and challenge you to seek through meditation that each time that you may consider doing so in formal groups such as this one, in smaller groups in your home, or very short periods simply taken throughout the day, minute by minute, as needed, all of these techniques of meditation will avail you, my friends, and we very strongly invite you to experience the creation of the Creator to the farthest which…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Carla channeling)

Grasp it, mold it and it will allow itself to be grasped and molded according to your highest aspirations. There is no end, or limit to what you may accomplish by use of your true and eternal spirit. What you obtain in the physical illusion is yours for a very short time. But, my friends, the strides that you are able to make within the purview of your spiritual path will last throughout eternity. You will never need to take these steps again.

Hatonn went on to say they cannot speak in such a way as to demonstrate this truth that the creation is around us and within us because it is completely up to us, and they can tell us of the advantages to be gained in meditation, and they can change us towards obtaining a stronger contact with reality, but we are a free creation, an entity with a mind and will completely sovereign, so it is within our province of choice as to what we wish to do with each moment of our conscious awareness within our incarnation, and they are aware that we are seeking, and they can challenge us to seek through meditation that each time that we may consider doing so in formal groups such as this one, in smaller groups in our home, or very short periods simply taken throughout the day as needed, and all of these techniques of meditation will aid us, and they invited us to experience the creation of the Creator to the farthest which we can, and to grasp it, mold it, and it will allow itself to be grasped and molded according to our highest aspirations, so there is limit to what we may accomplish by use of our eternal spirit because what we obtain in the physical illusion is ours for a short time, but the strides that we are able to make within the purview of our spiritual path will last throughout eternity, and we will never need to take these steps again. On March 11, 2023, Q’uo spoke of how we may travel our spiritual path:

We are grateful that we are able to blend together to seek in service to others and to join groups such as your group, so that there may be some reconciliation of differences, some answering of questions that are upon the heart, upon the mind, that cause difficulty or confusion—that we may help others to be who they are, the same as we are, the One Infinite Creator. We move in harmony together, and we move in harmony with you.

And we are thankful that you have asked the queries this afternoon that you’ve asked, for they allow us to pursue our spiritual path as well as helping you to pursue your spiritual path. Together, we move in harmony, in unity, in the great dance of creation. And we thank you all for being here this afternoon, giving us an opportunity to blend our vibrations with yours. We are most impressed with how you do the dance of loving and living within the third-density illusion.

This morning Trish was kind enough to take me to my colonoscopy. After the colonoscopy was over she brought me back home where I was able to have my first food in over two days.

This afternoon I had planned on using my trimmer around my yard to remove weeds, but the staff where I got my colonoscopy said that I should take it easy for the rest of the day, so I slowly walked a quarter mile on my mile and a quarter speed walk.

The Bird That Sings

I am of the principle of divine Love and joy.

I greet you in the full consciousness of Christ. I greet you in joy. Think you that Jesus did not have joy?

It is not so. No matter what the suffering of the human condition, there is joy in every moment to be found by opening the inward eye to the beauties, the possibilities, and the chances of the creation. It may perhaps be that there are matters which cause the utmost discouragement. Yet always there is the bird that sings, the tassel upon the corn that waves in the wind, and the blue, ethereal sky flocked with clouds.

Look up this day, and find the joy within the creation about you. Look within and feel the kindly hand of the Spirit, for the principle of Love needs only to be requested to appear in each seeking heart.

We leave you in peace, Love and joy, 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.
