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.

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

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.

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

June 28

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.

Questioner asked: “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 began by saying the energy which we 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, and this awareness of each other in that group was more unified than other groups, so this increased the energy as well as a unified group desire to obtain information, but this high energy level does not indicate that we have learned what is spoken since it only indicates a desire to meditate and to learn, and other desires can intervene, and Hatonn desires for certain types of information rather than rewards of the Creator, but it is a self-limiting desire since it eliminates some of the more advanced information, so this is ironic because the desire to obtain the information can prevent obtaining higher information due to an incorrect assumption as to the nature of higher information. Hatonn continued by saying the most appropriate way to ensure understanding what is said in a high energy meeting is to allow it to leak over into our thinking during the time following the meditation, and if we do this we will discover a way to use this teaching, and at this point we will begin understanding in a true sense, for that which is not demonstrated is not understood, but this is not to say that the high level of energy which we experience is not valuable because it is valuable, but it must be guided carefully, or its power can be dissipated or wrongly used, so 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.

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

June 26

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.

(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.

I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Hatonn Q’uo comes from May 24, 1974:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I greet you in the love and the light of our infinite Creator. I am one with each of you. It is my privilege to be with you, and it is my privilege to speak through this instrument. I am aware that there is a question about what you call a UFO sighting. We are not aware of more than one sighting. We find in the mind of this instrument that a sighting has been had by one of you, with which we did not have a part. We do not know without consulting records what it was that you saw.

However, we assume that you would be interested in knowing of the one which we are aware. The patterns which were drawn in the sky were drawn by a member of the Confederation of Planets in the Service of Our infinite Creator. We indulged ourselves at that particular time and for the general purpose of sending a reason [inaudible]. It is very seldom that this situation is possible. A specific type of attitude must have been nurtured over a fairly long period of time in most cases. However, the attitude of accepted [inaudible] was present, and so we sent a reason [inaudible].

Are there any questions?

Questioner: How about the other two people that saw it?

Hatonn: Within these two persons this sight was a neutral experience. It had no negative or infringing nature because there was no type of message which was sent forth to either of them. Having nothing to attach this phenomenon to, they were able to experience it without either positive or negative reaction. This is acceptable to us.

Questioner: How high [inaudible]?

Hatonn: The craft of my brother was a larger craft than the one upon which we normally dwell, although it is not as large as a carrier craft and does not have intergalactic capabilities. It could be [inaudible] to be. I am having difficulty transmitting numbers. I will transmit the size by means of comparison. This ship was approximately the size of more than one football field. It was above the level of atmosphere at the fringes of space. I am afraid I cannot tell you the specific distance. This instrument is having much difficulty receiving numbers.

Questioner: Was it more than twenty miles?

Hatonn: It was at the place where there is no shield from radiation.

Questioner: Was there any meaning in the patterns?

Hatonn: They were intended to be obvious and to indicate to you only that your brothers—intelligent, sentient, and very close to you—were sending greetings to you. Other than this the movements were not symbolic, but were intended simply to be an obviously non-natural movement. We wish that we could indulge ourselves and express our great joy at all times in greeting each of you. We would do this and more, my friends because we feel very much joy at being able to share with you our understanding, and our very existence in the Creator’s creation. We have not, however, found that this is possible, so we must send our greetings, our Love, and our aid to you from the creation to your creation by these ways and means until such time that we can be true brothers and experience the joy of the Creator’s creation together in all its freedom.

As for symbols, my friends, symbols are what you understand them to be. There are no arbitrary symbols. The true symbol is that which is most real, just as the sun is often a symbol. When the circle is seen as symbol, the circle is a representation of the sun. And the sun is thought of as a beautiful example of the unity of the creation, the Light, and the Love of the reality of the center of the universe. What you see as a symbol may mean this or that. The only importance in any symbol is that it points you toward your center and toward the center of the creation. And this can be done by any symbol, by any task, as long as you turn within. If you saw a symbol in our motion or in any other phenomena around you, then, my friends, turn within and allow that which is merely symbolic to become reality.

Are there further questions?

Questioner: Is there normally physical [inaudible].

Hatonn: We were in a normal condition when you saw us. However, we have several normal conditions, only one of which is visible within this particular universe. We normally operate in another of our normal conditions due to the fact, as we said, it is not usually an acceptable thing to do to greet man on Earth directly due to our possible infringing upon the free will of those upon planet Earth.

Questioner: What is the probability of meeting with me if I were to sever [inaudible] and totally isolate [inaudible]?

Hatonn: We are not able to say. It would be necessary for you to simply attempt such a thing. There are many [inaudible] which cannot be evaluated on supposition, promises, or hope. There are many things that you cannot know until they have been experienced. It is very rare that each question of such an articulated desire comes into being correctly. However, it has been done. We cannot speak nor be doubtful, for we do not know how these [inaudible] will be settled for any particular situation. You are, of course, aware that you are attempting to meet yourself. This may be of some help to you in preparation for such a successful confrontation.

Questioner: Could you expand [inaudible]?

Hatonn: My friends, it is all too often that it is thought of man on Earth that we of the teaching realm are some extremely wise and distant and almost God-like beings. Others picture us as somewhat overbearing and clever beings who are the advanced representatives of an invading civilization. We know these things, my friends. We know them all too well. They do not grieve us unnecessarily. We are aware of the difficulty which the heavy illusion of Earth gives even to the most earnest seeker. But, my friends, we are not distant wise men. Nor are we advanced representatives and diplomats. We are you. And you are we. If you can understand that you have not met any who is not you, then you can begin to understand that when you meet us you will be meeting yourself.

The infinite progression of this understanding is at the heart of the ability to say as you approach the level of spiritual seeking at which you will graduate into a higher level of understanding you become more able to see that you are meeting yourself. Without this understanding you will never be able to meet us. But in order to obtain this understanding it is necessary to meet each individual that you meet with the Love, the infinite compassion, and understanding with which you would meet yourself. It is an extremely freeing type of realization, my friends, for in actuality it is fairly easy to meet yourself.

Questioner asked: “Could you expand on the nature of your being?” Q’uo began by saying it is all too often that it is thought of man on Earth that we of the teaching realm are some wise and God-like beings, but others picture us as clever beings who are representatives of an invading civilization, and we know these things all too well, but they do not grieve us because we are aware of the difficulty which the heavy illusion of Earth gives to the earnest seeker, but we are not distant wise men, nor are we advanced diplomats since we are you, and you are we, so if you can understand that you have not met any who is not you, then you can begin to understand that when you meet us you will be meeting yourself. Hatonn continued by saying the infinite progression of this understanding is at the heart of the ability to say, as we approach the level of spiritual seeking at which we will graduate into a higher level of understanding, that we become more able to see that we are meeting our self, but without this understanding we will never be able to meet Hatonn, so in order to obtain this understanding it is necessary to meet each individual that we meet with the Love, the infinite compassion, and understanding with which we would meet our self, and it is a freeing type of realization, for in actuality it is fairly easy to meet our self. On May 23, 1999, Q’uo spoke of the nature of infinite compassion that allows us to meet ourself through a deeper realization of ourself:

You can teach yourself to perform compassionate acts, but the key to that infinite compassion that is truly yours is not to be found within teaching and learning. It is locked within the present moment, and it is when you go into the present moment that you are vulnerable to a deeper realization of yourself.

Concentrate then as you meet others upon meeting them in truth as completely whole and perfect individuals in the reality of yourself. Not yourself as a person, but yourself as the creation. We have said this in many different ways, my friends, but we observe that it is extremely easy for those of you who are seeking to concentrate very much upon an abstract mental state and to become somewhat lax about the delicacy and the excellence of his attitudes in regard to those of his own species which he meets every day. It is easier to speak of meditation than of service to those who do not seem to be very much like you. My friends, they are like you. In fact, they are you. And we are you, and you are we, and we are all the creation.

As you begin to approach understanding and practice of this most difficult understanding, you become more capable of an actual meeting with us. It is not the only requirement, my friends. There are difficulties not only with yourself, but with each of those who are with you. There is difficulty that must be centered and dissipated having to do with the unified feeling of any group so that all is completely as one within a group if the group is to meet with us. We cannot specify the needs to be met. We cannot even give our opinion as to whether such a meeting would prove helpful, for this opinion would vary depending upon the group, the time, the place and the understanding. However, we are with you and it is a pleasure to be here.

Then Hatonn said that we must focus, as we meet others, upon meeting them in truth as perfect individuals in the reality of our self but not as a person but as the creation, and Hatonn has said this in different ways, but they said that it is easy for those of us who are seeking to concentrate upon an abstract mental state and to become lax about the delicacy of our attitudes in regard to those of our species which we meet every day, and it is easier to speak of meditation than of service to those who do not seem to be like us, but they are us, and we are them, and we are all the creation. Hatonn went on to say as we begin to approach this difficult understanding, we become capable of meeting with them, but it is not the only requirement because there are difficulties not only with our self but with each of those who are with us, so there is difficulty that must be centered having to do with the unified feeling of any group so that all is completely as one within a group if the group is to meet with them, but they cannot specify the needs to be met or give their opinion as to whether such a meeting would prove helpful, for this opinion would vary depending upon the group, the time, the place, and the understanding, so  they are with us, and they feel it is a pleasure to be here. On February 25, 1974, Phillip said that we all are the creation:

We are the creation. We are the Creator. We are all one. It is impossible to be anything else. No matter where you are, what you think or what you do, this fact remains: that you and all of your brothers and sisters throughout all of this infinite creation are one single, great, living Being. Not only brothers and sisters, but all of life; and all of the trees, and flowers, and rocks, and all of the foliage, and all of the planets and stars are part of that one great Being.

Have you further questions?

Questioner: This is a question that you probably won’t answer, for the same reason that you may fear infringing upon the free will of the people [inaudible]. I have read in several—from several different sources that the transition that the Earth will go through will be, with mixed vibrations, will be somewhere in the neighborhood of 150 years. If this figure is anywhere near correct, the question is will we possibly see this transition all the way through in this incarnation, or will it be necessary that we reincarnate? Or can you answer this with a blanket statement?

Hatonn: Your understanding of the end of the cycle is not…

[Side one of tape ends.]

(Carla channeling)

…the change from the physical state before the end of the cycle. Your ultimate destination is an individual matter, and a blanket statement cannot be made. It is advisable in your experience that you concentrate as you have been doing upon your spiritual journey for you have managed to pull yourself very definitely off of the descent [inaudible] and into the right direction. You have chosen right, my friends. Each of you has. And whereas before it is entirely possible it would have been necessary for you to return for another cycle of learning, you have earned for yourself a strong chance of being part of the so-called graduation class. There is much awaiting you, my friends, and we call for you to join us. This is your opportunity; you are making use of it. My friends, continue, continue, and continue. You have much to do, I assure you.

Have you other questions?

[Pause]

Hatonn: In that case, my friends, I will leave you now, reminding you that we are here to aid you and serve you. If you wish our aid, our conditioning, or our thoughts, simply avail yourselves to us through meditation for it is our privilege to be with you at any time you call for us. Please, my friends, remember that all is ultimately without being for intellectual expression, that all abides within Love and Light. Instead of allowing yourself to be washed away into intellectual shallow waters, imagine yourself standing on the beach with the sun pouring down. Imagine how the gentle breezes calm you and cool you. And let the warm sun take any ache or pain from you. The Love and the Light of the infinite Creator is like the beam of Light and warmth of Light. If you bask in it, my friends, there is the end to questions and the beginning of true comfort.

Nevertheless, we are also aware that there are simple needs that those of the planet Earth do have. We are aware that you need to grasp them with the feeling of your mind and to turn them over and over and to this purpose we have trained channels of assistance so that when you have questions as you seek, you learn from a direct communication and ask those questions that cause you wonder. We welcome your questions, and we attempt to answer any question. I hope that I have been of service today. I and my brothers are most happy to have been with you. I leave you in the Love and the Light of our infinite Creator. I am Hatonn. Adonai vasu.

This morning I went outside and used my hedge clippers to clip the limbs from my Arborvitae Trees and Burning Bushes that were hanging over into my neighbor’s driveway. Then I transplanted ten more Dahlias into the Sun Mandala behind the garage as there have been more Dahlias dying off in the last few days. Then I watered them with fertilized water and replaced the netting over them. Then I used my backpack blower to blow the leaves out of the Moss Garden and out of the Azalea Garden in the cross area so that I could mulch them when I cut the grass this afternoon.

This afternoon I went outside and used Venus to cut the grass all around the yard. When I finished cutting the grass I used my limb loppers to cut six small Honeysuckle Bushes out of the Forsythia Bushes in the back yard.

The Fire Of Love

Greetings from the Spirit of Christ to the world. Love, peace and blessings be with you.

The fire of unconditional Love is a rampaging and ruthless force which is infinitely creative. Fire also burns, and those who are led by the spirit are often led to shed and allow to fall into disrepair traits and sensibilities which function well in the world of sense but not in the world where love holds sway.

It cannot be escaped, the fire of Love, yet by placing yourself trustfully within that fire you may find your soul taught and tempered by its creative blaze. Much of loss is experienced by those whose path is that of Christ. May you who seek learn to see that the power of Love is one which changes situations. There is loss involved. Place your mind trustfully in the faith that those things which fall away will be replaced by far more lovely gifts.

We leave you in the peace of the Love of Jesus the Christ, 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 quote comes from May 19, 1974:

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I greet you, beloved brethren, in the love and in the light of our infinite Creator. I am the one known to you as Hatonn. I am far, far above you, in what you would call a craft. We are here, my friends, to aid you in that which you seek to accomplish. It is our great, great privilege to be with this group this evening, and we greet each of you. We are aware that there are questions upon your minds, and we will not speak at great length before beginning the questioning. However, we would like to say a few words about service, my friends.

The many attempts which each of you makes to give service to others is more successful than you know. The simple turning of the self from the seeking for sensation in self to the seeking towards service gives the seeker the ability that he seeks. However, my friends, if you wish to improve and expand your service, we can only suggest to you that you turn within, away from all sensation, and towards meditation. There is no power without you. There is nothing that you can smell, or taste, or experience in the physical that can cause harm or give aid. The power that you seek is the power of the reality of the Love and the Light of our infinite Creator, and it lies within. Go within, my friends. Meditate. Seek that which you desire, and it will come to you.

At this time, I wish to transfer this contact to one of the other instruments. I am Hatonn.

. . .

(Carla channeling)

I am Hatonn. I am with this instrument. Are there further questions?

Questioner: What is life like on your planet, as compared to our life?

Hatonn: Life on our planet at one time was much like that upon planet Earth. However, at this time our entire population of sentient beings has developed a singular desire. This desire began as a simple seeking for understanding, and has developed into a completely unitary and combined ability of each entity of the planet known as Hatonn. The combination is so strong that we are able to do many, many things. Feeling and being as one, we are now seeking as one, and as our seeking has led us forward, we have found our way to be pointed directly at service, ever expanding service, service to all parts of the creation. And as our service has been needed, whereas before we were not capable of discovering the means to perform this service, we became able to perform the service that we came to see as our service.

In this manner, we have developed abilities which you may call miraculous. We have the ability to transcend what you know as time and space. We have access in a conscious manner to knowledge of which you have access only during meditation, in a subconscious manner. The freedoms which we enjoy, my friends, are there because we have begun to see that we are all one. Realization is all that is between planet Earth and the planet Hatonn. On your planet as on our planet, each blade of grass is alive with the knowledge of the Creator. The winds sing the Creator’s praises. Trees shout for joy in the creation of our infinite Creator. If you are not able to see the Creator, my friends, it is a matter of seeking, and seeking, and continued seeking. And then, my friends, you will begin to realize and to understand that the creation of the Creator is all around you. Planet Earth, my friends, is indeed a lovely planet. It will soon be vibrating in a vibratory manner which is far more associated with realization of the Creator’s creation. Begin to realize, and move with your planet, as we moved with ours. There is only that which is in your mind, and within your consciousness, and within your faith, between the pain, the lack, and the limitation which you experience and the complete freedom which is our vibration we experience. We invite you to join us, my friends. Seek, and ye shall find.

Questioner asked: “What is life like on your planet, as compared to our life?” Hatonn began by saying life on our planet at one time was much like that upon planet Earth, but at this time our population has developed a singular desire which began as a simple seeking for understanding and has developed into a unitary ability of each entity of the planet known as Hatonn, and the combination is so strong that we are able to do many things, so, feeling and being as one, we are now seeking as one, and as our seeking has led us forward, we have found our way to be pointed at ever expanding service to all parts of the creation as our service has been needed, whereas before we were not capable of discovering the means to perform this service that we came to see as our service. Hatonn went on to say in this manner we have developed abilities which you may call miraculous such as the ability to transcend time and space, and we have access to knowledge of which you have access only during meditation, so the freedoms which we enjoy are there because we have begun to see that we are all one so that realization is all that is between planet Earth and the planet Hatonn, for on your planet as on our planet, each blade of grass is alive with the knowledge of the Creator, and the winds sing the Creator’s praises, and trees shout for joy in the creation of our infinite Creator, but if you are not able to see the Creator, it is a matter of seeking, and then you will begin to understand that the creation of the Creator is all around you, and Earth is also a lovely planet, and it will soon be vibrating in a manner which is more associated with realization of the Creator’s creation, so begin to realize and move with your planet, as we moved with ours because there is only that which is within your consciousness and within your faith between the limitation which you experience and the complete freedom which is the vibration we experience, so we invite you to join us to seek, and ye shall find. On June 8, 1986, Yom said that as we seek, we shall find:

The general nature of the affirmation is to specifically focus the attention, the expenditure of personal energy which is always at your disposal. Indeed, the life pattern itself without such affirmations of a specific nature is an affirmation of a general nature, for whatever you seek and in whatever degree you seek it, you shall eventually discover within your life pattern, for it is indeed true that as ye seek, ye shall find. To bend the will and exercise the faith by forming them around a spoken or visualized affirmation is to make the specific use of those powers that are always yours. This is likened unto utilizing the scalpel of the surgeon as opposed to a more crude technique of achieving the same results.

Are there further questions?

Questioner: The service you perform with Earth—does this same service extend to other planets? If so, can you give us some idea of how many, and their levels of consciousness?

Hatonn: We have aided many other planets within the same general vibratory level. The aid is given to this level by us because we are, shall we say, at the next level of awareness, and are best able to communicate to those people who wish to enter into understanding which we share. We have dealt with many planets who are beginning a new phase of vibration. We have aided many a graduating class, and we have done so successfully. We have also failed, not once, but several times. It is completely possible for us to fail, because we wish to fail if it be the will of the people of the planet we are attempting to aid.

We come because we feel the desire that brings us here. And we give what aid we can to those who wish it. Our thoughts are available to all who desire them. However, we attempt to do this in such a way that no individual is ever in a position where they cannot accept or deny our thinking as they please. Those who are vibrating within the level that will appreciate the information that we give surely recognizes that which is truth. At the present time, we are far behind where we had hoped to be at this point while helping planet Earth. We had hoped to have been much more successful at reaching the people of this planet. It is possible that there will be a smaller graduation than we had hoped. However, my friends, it is our greatest pleasure to be working with those of you, however many or however few, who are seeking. It is only necessary to seek, and the spiritual path shall roll behind you, and open before you. And what you desire shall be yours.

Have you further questions?

[No further queries.]

Carla: Hatonn says goodbye.

This morning I used the sprinkler on the Wuthering Heights Mound, on top of the fishpond, and between the Flower Garden inside the Moss Garden and the Ruins Mound Flower Garden from half an hour to an hour since we are forecast to have temperatures in the high 90’s for the next few days. Then I transplanted eight Hosta along my next-door neighbor’s driveway where the deer had eaten their Hosta. Then I watered them with fertilized water and covered them with netting to keep the deer from eating them. Then I used my nippers to deadhead the Marigolds in the Ruins Mound. Then I watered the Dahlias in the Sun Mandala and the Snapdragons in the Clay Tile Pipe pyramid with a bucket of water for each garden.

This afternoon I went on an errand run with my first stop being at Feeder’s Supply where I bought two bags of bird seed. My next stop was at Kroger’s where I bought some Sharp Shredded Cheddar Cheese. My third stop was at Paul’s Fruit Market where I bought some food for myself and another tray of Dahlias. My fourth stop was at Speedway Gas to fill Stanley with gas. And my last stop was at Walgreen’s where I bought some paper plates and some laundry detergent.

Positive And Negative Flows

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

The principle of Love has no beginning and no end; no movement in time; no inner dynamic of strength or weakness. Love is an energy which flows according to desire and spoken need. And, indeed, many unspoken needs create the flow of Spirit.

It is possible also to create a flow which dries and negates the voice of the Spirit of Love. You experience this flow as doubt. Yet it is the lack of positive faith which permits the negative flow.

We suggest that all self-recrimination be laid aside, for all people create both positive and negative flows within the life experience at different times. Only focus upon this moment, and offer your gift of faith in the face of it, that a positive flow of Spirit may come to show to you the face of Love.

We leave you in peace, both 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 May 18, 1974:

Carla channeling)

I greet you, my friends, in the love and the light of our infinite Creator. I am Hatonn. It is a privilege for me to meet with you this evening, as always. I am aware that you wish to know something about the confrontation between a combatant from another planet than your own and two of your people. We will attempt to explain through this instrument. However, we are having a certain amount of difficulty with this contact, and patience on your parts will be required, for this instrument is resisting the amount of control that is necessary for projecting more closely the information we must project.

This type of communication is not the completely controlled type of communication of which we have spoken in the past. However, the concepts which we are sending are considerably more restricted in their interpretation, and therefore, we must keep a much closer amount of control over the consciousness and the mechanism which is producing the message. This amount of control is still somewhat difficult for this instrument to accept. However, we have been conditioning her while we have been talking, and we believe that we have a somewhat improved contact at this point.

The Pascagoula landing, my friends, was, as far as we are aware, not a completely isolated instance. However, it is the only instance which has been delivered into the hands of public knowledge. On the other hand, although it is not the only landing of that particular group of alien individuals, it is one of the very few. These peoples are members of a type of combatant group. There is not the idea of the soldiering or war as you know it. However, it is the closest interpretation which your language and the use of this instrument will permit.

These people were interested simply as passersby in the phenomena which they saw, and, not having strong enough leadership, they decided to take a closer look. There was no intention of any harm at all. It is doubtful that this type of craft, and this particular group of beings, will cease passing this particular area of space for several reasons, none of which are in any way connected with the planet on whose surface you now reside. Therefore, you may again discover some evidence of such a contact. But we assure you that it is merely a rare, scattered, and unharmful confrontation.

The topic for this session was: “The confrontation between a combatant from another planet than your own and two of your people.” Hatonn began by saying the Pascagoula landing was not an isolated instance, but it is the only instance which has been delivered into the hands of public knowledge, and although it is not the only landing of that particular group of alien individuals, it is one of the very few, so these people are members of a type of combatant group, but there is not the idea of war as you know it, but it is the closest interpretation which your language and the use of this instrument will permit. Then Hatonn said these people were interested as passersby in the phenomena which they saw, and, not having strong enough leadership, they decided to take a closer look, and there was no intention of any harm, so it is doubtful that this type of craft, and this particular group of beings, will cease passing this particular area of space for several reasons, none of which are in any way connected with the planet on whose surface you now reside, and you may again discover some evidence of such a contact, but we assure you that it an unharmful confrontation. In 8.15-.19, Ra described the aliens from another planet that landed in Pascagoula, Mississippi in 1973:

Questioner: Was the landing at Pascagoula in 1973 when Charlie Hickson was taken on board this type of landing?

Ra: I am Ra. The landing of which you speak was what you would call an anomaly. It was neither the Orion influence nor our peoples in thought-form, but rather a planetary entity of your own vibration which came through quarantine in all innocence in a random landing.

Questioner: What did they do to Charlie Hickson when they took him on board?

Ra: I am Ra. They used his mind/body/spirit complex’s life experience, concentrating upon the experience of the complexes of what you call war.

Questioner: How did they use them?

Ra: I am Ra. The use of experience is to learn. Consider a race who watches a movie. It experiences a story and identifies with the feelings, perceptions, and experiences of the hero.

Questioner: Was Charlie Hickson originally of the same social memory complex as the ones who picked him up?

Ra: I am Ra. This entity of vibratory sound complex did not have a connection with those who used him.

Questioner: Did those who used him use his war experiences to learn more of the Law of One?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

Hatonn: Do you have a further question?

Questioner: Were the people who came from the spacecraft people or robots?

Hatonn: These were beings with consciousness and individuality. They were, however, not precisely of the nature which you would call human. You are not at this time aware of the possibilities that exist in the creation. However, these people are not robots.

Questioner: Can you give me some idea of what you meant by combatants?

Hatonn: There is a great deal of difficulty in working out of the language of your culture in explaining another culture, especially an alien culture. I am attempting to give this instrument an idea of the structure of thinking upon the planet from which these people come. I am giving her the name, but she does not seem able to understand it. However, the structure is somewhat more totally conscious of illusion than your own world structure. Each of the projects and difficulties of learning within a density somewhat comparable to yours results in an externally expressed series of movements which eliminates for these people the need for inner fears and doubts. By the structuring of the illusion, they recognize it and deal with it in a highly stylized fashion. They have a good record of advancement along the spiritual path, using this technique.

The closest that this instrument can come to explaining the concept she has been given is probably the concept of a few people’s ambitions. They go, therefore, a far distance to take part in a game which has much of the mental characteristics of war, but which is entirely mental. Due to the type of structure which these people have obtained throughout many generations of this discipline, the outcome of this combat will be final, just, and completely acceptable to each who has depended upon the combatants of each different opinion. These people are progressing along a different path than yours, and this is true throughout the infinite creation. But they are progressing towards the same goal that we all share.

Hatonn went on to say that the structure of the spiritual path that these aliens was upon was similar to ours, but there is some difficulty in working out of the language of our culture in explaining another culture, especially an alien culture, and Hatonn said they were attempting to give Carla an idea of the structure of thinking upon the planet from which these people come, and they were giving her the name, but she does not seem able to understand it, so the structure is more conscious of illusion than our own world structure, so each of the projects and difficulties of learning within a density comparable to ours results in an externally expressed series of movements which eliminates for these people the need for inner fears and doubts, and by the structuring of the illusion, they deal with it in a stylized fashion, so they have a good record of advancement along the spiritual path, using this technique. Hatonn continued by saying the closest that Carla can come to explaining the concept she has been given is the concept of a few people’s ambitions, so they go a far distance to take part in a game which has much of the mental characteristics of war, and due to the type of structure which these people have obtained throughout many generations of this discipline, the outcome of this combat will be final and acceptable to each who has depended upon the combatants of each different opinion, but these people are progressing along a different path than ours, and this is true throughout the infinite creation, but they are progressing towards the same goal that we all share. In 38.8 Ra said that these entities were progressing along a different path than ours:

Questioner: I was wondering if that particular social memory complex from the Sirius star evolved from trees?

Ra: I am Ra. This approaches correctness. Those second-density vegetation forms which graduated into third density upon this planet bearing the name of Dog were close to the tree as you know it.

Have you a further question?

Questioner: With respect to progress, what would be their relative progress and understanding with respect to this planet’s general progress?

Hatonn: I am afraid that it is difficult in the extreme to state where a relatively stable, progressive culture lies, in comparison to the somewhat uneven picture which is represented on planet Earth. The potential which is within very many of those upon the planet Earth is somewhat, shall we say, more advanced than the basic vibratory level of the planet…

Carla: I can’t get that. They’re telling me a name, but I can’t get that.

(Carla channeling)

Hatonn: However, the average vibration upon that alien planet is far more advanced than the lower average of those upon planet Earth who stubbornly sleep. We are afraid that as those of Earth have much potential, so they also have little time to translate their potential into the actuality that they in truth can deserve and have. Both planets are within the same basic vibration. And the planet upon which you enjoy physical existence is far more advanced through its cycle within this particular vibration.

Is there another question?

Questioner: What type of sensory equipment do these individuals have? Do they see, hear, and communicate like we do?

Hatonn: No. They are aware. The material which covers them is aware of more than all of the physical senses upon this planet are aware of, in unison.

Questioner: What do you mean by the material which covers?

Hatonn: You would call it skin.

This morning Anna drove up from Nashville, and we went to see the Yew Dell Gardens in Crestwood. It was an amazing experience as we saw so many different kinds and sizes of flowers, bushes, and trees. We also saw a number of buildings that were built out of stone, and one of them had recently been refurbished so that it looked like a castle with a number of stone fountains in front of it. We had lunch there, and then explored the gardens for another hour or so before driving back to my home.

This afternoon we watched the video of Carla’s and my wedding at Calvary Episcopal Church on May 30, 1987. I had never seen it before, and it was so amazing to see many long-time friends who attended our wedding and the reception after it. I thought that Fr. Ben Sander’s comments before the ceremony about how God is a part of each ceremony, and a part of healing any challenges that are experienced for the rest of our lives, was something that I remembered Carla always felt was the foundation of our marriage.

Holy Ground Of Your Being

I am of the principle of Love, and I greet you as the Spirit of Jesus the Christ who moves in the world in the present moment.

What, indeed, is holy? And how can we be called the Holy Spirit? Gaze about you as you move through your daily activities. What see you that is holy? What see you that is blessed? As you gaze outward, you see the blessings of tree, and flower, shrub, and grass. Yet do you gaze inward to find the holy ground within?

As you sit in contemplation of these words, be aware that you are upon the holy ground of your own being, created in holiness, sent forth into this earthly world in holiness, and now suffering and rejoicing in holiness.

Know and feel the divinity of being which lies beneath all imperfection, and then know that, by the power of the Holy Spirit that speaks within, each of you may use those hands for holy things, for service to each little one that belongs to the Father.

We leave you in love and peace, now and always. Amen.
