I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Oxal, Q’uo, and Nona channelings for this session come from March 16, 1986:
Carla channeling)
I am Oxal. I greet you in the Love and in the Light of our infinite Creator. We thank you for allowing us to come and share our thoughts with you. We would like to say to the one known as L that we are very grateful for his openness to our contact but found some difficulty in establishing our identity. We shall be most happy to use this instrument as he desires and will begin through this instrument.
We would speak with you this evening of joy, that quality which is beyond its name, that energy which creates in fire and yet in peace, that explosion which is yet a steady state, that translation of that which proceeds into that which is. We would speak to you of history. Those among your peoples are fascinated with history, that which is past history and that which shall be future history, and we would point out to you that if you wish a specific remedy against joy it would be history that would take the first place among the active distractions of those who seek.
We speak to you of these things at this time because there are those among you who have spent a good deal of time, as you call it, in prayer and in meditation supporting what this instrument calls the great peace march. We would like to point out to you that the ideal involved is a part of joy and that the history of that effort is not. It is difficult to perceive the possibility of feeling joy when watching what could have been disintegration, and we understand that among your people that which does not eventuate as a finished process is counted as failure.
In this session Oxal spoke about joy. They began by saying we would speak with you this evening of joy, that quality which is beyond its name, that energy which creates in fire and yet in peace, that explosion which is a steady state, that translation of that which proceeds into that which is, so we would speak to you of history because your people are fascinated with history, that which is past history and that which shall be future history, and we would point out to you that if you wish a specific remedy against joy it would be history that would take the first place among the active distractions of those who seek. Then Oxal said we speak to you of these things at this time because there are those among you who have spent a good deal of time in prayer and in meditation supporting what this instrument calls the great peace march, but we would like to point out to you that the ideal involved is a part of joy and that the history of that effort is not, for it is difficult to perceive the possibility of feeling joy when watching what could have been disintegration, and we understand that among your people that which does not result in a finished process is counted as failure. On March 13, 2010, Q’uo described the nature of joy:
When one cries with joy, one is opening the energy body as a whole, for joy is the steady state of the creation of the one infinite Creator. Joy and bliss are the natural, default settings of the open heart. Consequently, crying tears of joy removes an over-activity of awareness, where the keenness of emotion becomes too much to bear, and there is a great clearing of the entire energy body.
Success and failure belong to that outward portion of yourselves which belong to history. The discipline of joy is the discipline of remaining outside of time, or to speak more precisely, within that womb from which time issues and towards which it shall once again be drawn in the great rhythm of the cosmos. To remove oneself from processes is to remove oneself from all of those things which seem real, beginning with the processes of one’s own physical vehicle, continuing on with the processes of the daily living: the telephone that rings; the doorbell that rings; the visitor that knocks at your gate; the information that comes through the post; and all those things which remind one again and again of the processes of dailyness.
Shall you then reject all of these things in order to remain joyful? We suggest to you that there is a portion of you which should do just that in order to achieve something which you may wish to nurture and that is the sense of humor, the light touch, the feeling of being seated within Love and its expression—joy and laughter—regardless of outward circumstances. Processes, as all things which partake of time, begin and end, are successful or fail, and yet consciousness is variably affected by these processes. May we suggest to you that by reserving a portion of yourself to be centered within that great womb of time where joy holds sway, one can experience differently the processes of living within the illusion which you now enjoy and from which you shall learn as you choose to learn, slowly or more rapidly, ineffectually or more effectively.

Oxal went on to say we suggest to you that there is a portion of you which should reject all of these things in order to achieve something which you may wish to nurture, and that is the sense of humor and the feeling of being seated within Love and its expression—joy and laughter—regardless of outward circumstances, for processes, as all things which partake of time, begin and end, are successful or fail, and yet consciousness is variably affected by these processes, so may we suggest to you that by reserving a portion of yourself to be centered within that great womb of time where joy holds sway, one can experience differently the processes of living within the illusion which you now enjoy and from which you shall learn as you choose to learn, slowly or more rapidly, ineffectually or more effectively. On March 1, 1998, Q’uo described the nature of living within the illusion of third density:
This Prayer of St. Francis is the outcry of the soul who wishes to be free of self and subsumed into the service of the infinite mystery that it worships and adores. And this is the door that opens into a larger and less fear-filled view of living within the illusion, this realization that there are different ways to look at each situation, that it is not terrible to have faults or to have sins or to have pride about the good things and fear about the bad things. That one is intended to be very confused by this illusion. That there is positive value in this confusion in that it, and it alone, tear most people away from those things that they cling to in fear.
The more one throws the whole self into that which may be called petty, the more one allows oneself to worry and be concerned over seeming failures, the more one robs oneself of the opportunities for transformation, and yet transformation is what you have come to choose to do. It seems that that which is new becomes old, but we say to you to consider whether it is not one’s interest that becomes old. When one perceives things from the standpoint of joy, nothing can escape the illumination which Love brings.
Now Oxal said the more one throws the whole self into that which is petty, the more one allows oneself to worry and be concerned over seeming failures, the more one robs oneself of the opportunities for transformation, and yet transformation is what you have come to choose to do, for it seems that which is new becomes old, but we say to you to consider whether it is not one’s interest that becomes old, for when one perceives things from the standpoint of joy, nothing can escape the illumination which Love brings. On January 12, 2008, Q’uo described the nature of transformation:
There is the part of transformation which is involved in very deep and subtle energies, such as the stars in your sky, the sun especially, and the moon. The monthly, annual, and slowly revolving astrological patterns of your life will have some sway over the rhythm of your cyclical transformations.
And certainly, the times that now are upon you, where the fourth density is virtually present, interpenetrating third density, has set you awash in energy tide after energy tide, so that you are constantly being washed with rhythmic waves of truth, Love, and understanding. This has the effect upon anyone who is at all sensitive to these energies of creating a more lucid ability to look at the mirroring that is going on in your particular life at this time.
Each relationship which you have gives you a mirror for yourself. Just as in your dreams, each character represents a portion of yourself. So, in the waking life each interaction with another entity shows you the mirror of yourself, in part, in the actions and behaviors, the thoughts and the concepts offered by that interaction. Consequently, you are constantly seeing portions of yourself mirrored in a somewhat distorted way by those who are in relationship with you.
All of these changes and chances, all of these natural cycles, create a basic default. The human was created to transform. That is the nature of the self-conscious, physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual being that you are. That is your potential, and that is your destiny: change from one form into another, from one kind of thought into another whole paradigm of thought. You cannot help but progress. So, you may feel easy about whether or not you are changing, whether or not you are being successful at transforming. It is inevitable for you to go through transformation upon transformation, and you do not have to push or thrust yourself towards transformation. You may relax in the knowledge that it is inevitable.
We would at this time again attempt to communicate through the one known as L. I am Oxal.
(L channeling)
I am Oxal, and I greet you again, my friends, in the Love and in the Light of the infinite Creator. We are encountering a slight difficulty in working through this instrument but will continue so that the instrument may become familiarized with our vibration and become more fluent in its ability to communicate our transmission. We of Oxal appreciate the effort displayed and request your patience as we work with the instrument. It is our desire, my friends, to be able to be one with you in your pursuit—correction—in your efforts to seek awareness.
We shall relinquish our use of this instrument at this point as the instrument is fatigued and having difficulty with our communications. We are grateful for the opportunity to exercise this instrument and thank those present for their patience. We are known to you as Oxal. Adonai, my friends.
(Carla channeling)
I am Q’uo, and we greet you in the Love and the Light of the One who is All. It is a great blessing to blend our vibrations with yours and to drink in the beauty of your beings. We would speak only briefly through this instrument, however there is a calling at this time for our particular bias in vibration and we gladly share it with you, knowing that the fellowship which we feel with you is only the surface of the service that you do us by allowing us to be with you.
We would give you our encouragement and speak upon meditation, for it is the key which unlocks the door to that which is within you, and that which is within you is nothing less than the one original Thought which is the Creator. You may call this Creator “Universal Mind,” yet that is not precise, for the mind proceeded and precipitated from the Thought which was thought without mind, but only with consciousness. You are the Creator, and as you experience each other, the Creator gains experience.
We speak from the point of view that the Creator has made a great sacrifice in causing a portion of Its being to have mind and to become independent, for there is much effort in accepting the free will of portions of Itself which seem disharmonious with other portions of Itself. And yet the Creator has repeatedly made this sacrifice of wholeness without effort in order to bring Itself an expanded Self. The Creator, shall we say, takes the very, very long view and looks upon all that occurs through all the densities and dimensions, of which there are an infinite number, in order that It may key into Its own Self all of the selves that have become unique and learn all those things which each unique portion has learned. And you yourself are a sacrifice to your own mind, for without mind you would constantly be in a state of meditation, and all things would be whole and entire unto themselves and one with you and acceptable in every respect. Yet you have sacrificed that awareness to come into incarnation and to be limited by your separation from those things about you, the material of the seat upon which you now bear your weight, of each other because you can touch but you cannot become in one in physical sense.
In this session Q’uo spoke upon meditation.

On October 19, 1986, Q’uo spoke of the nature of the state of meditation:
That is, in the process and state of meditation, one begins to become aware of the unity of Love which binds all things and which moves all experiences in intricate patterns which then offer the lessons of Love to those of your illusion. The desire, then, to seek the heart of the life pattern is that desire which is most helpful to propel one into the meditative state, no matter what technique of meditation is chosen.
Separation seems to run very deep, and one forgets that the stones sing, that the earth shouts with rejoicing, and that the trees skip in the springtime. How easy it is to feel separate from life that indwells all things. How easy it is to feel separate from oneself, to feel that there are factions within the self which must be reconciled, to find oneself analyzing and reanalyzing to no avail. The only road from separation into unity is keyed with meditation. Some there are who benefit from meditating at great length. Some there are who benefit from meditating a brief few minutes in each day, and some there are whose meditations are in action and through action they are centered and one with all that there is. Therefore, do not assume that you know what meditation is, and what your goals should be towards it, but rather, as you meditate, listen to that voice which speaks within and meditate as that voice instructs you. There is no set time, nor is there a set method. There is one thing, however, which we must emphasize and that is the fidelity to the practice.

On April 27, 1974, Hatonn described what meditation is:
This is what meditation is designed to do. To put you, part of the creation of the Creator, into direct communication with the Creator, which is all that there is. The creation of the Creator is all about you, my friends.
We thank you. We are most privileged to have been able to speak through this instrument to this group. We ask only that you treat our words as those of your brothers and sisters and not as those from, shall we say, on high. We are imperfect and most fallible, yet we have that to share which we have experienced, and so we shall with many thanks for the invitation. We would leave you now upon the many, many sounds that drift past your inner ear as the domicile rests in the chilly wind of springtime and the night sky sings with the songs of galaxies and stars. We shall drift away so that our voice is no longer heard, and yet we are always with you if you request our presence mentally. We leave you in the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator. We are those of Q’uo. Adonai, my friends. Adonai, my children. Adonai.
(Carla channeling)
I am Nona. I greet you in Love and in Light and am so happy to share this evening with you. We shall say no more.
[Carla channels a lovely healing melody from Nona.]
This morning the quote from The Thunder of silence is: “It is not necessary to overcome hate, fear, jealousy, or resentment, but it is necessary to sit down, close the eyes, and realize: “These are mental images in thought. These are projected states of thought of the vast mental illusion.” Then by abiding in an inner peace, they are dissolved. They are not destroyed because there is nothing to be destroyed; there is no substance to them, and they have no more reality than the pictures on our television screen, True, back of the moving picture there is a real picture with substance, just as behind every belief, theory, or false picture that is presented to us, there is a reality; but the reality is distorted in the picture, and it is that distortion that is dissolved as the reality appears.
The conditioned mind forms our problems, and there are times when that mind might form an answer to the problem, but that is not what we are seeking. What we want is a higher capacity than the human mind, and so now, without calling upon the thinking process, we let our mind be an instrument through which the Soul can reveal Itself.
A problem can exist only in the mind. But if we make of our mind a vacuum, if there are no thoughts in it, where would our problem be. There is then no probable, and in place of the problem the truth or reality rushes in.
If, instead of fighting a problem, we are willing to admit that to all appearances this problem seems to be overwhelming and turn within asking to have the reality revealed, then we are not trying to rise above or destroy the problem. We are merely trying to understand—not understand the problem, but understand the reality behind the problem. If we can be perfectly quiet and perfectly still with no attempt to overcome, destroy, remove, or escape from any situation or condition, the flow of the Spirit will rush in, and there will be freedom.
When error is presented in any form, there is a tendency to set up a wall against it, and in doing that, the opportunity to make the demonstration is lost because no wall is needed. Do not put up a wall against evil; do not put up a defense: understand that no external thing has power, not even the good things. All good is in Spirit, or Consciousness, not in the things that Consciousness produces.
Come with me now into an inner stillness in which we do not resort to any power to do anything. We resist not evil nor affirm. We will not seek God, and we will not fear a devil, but sit at peace, with no struggle, no strife, no battle:
The Lord is my shepherd. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. He prepareth a table before me in the presence of mine enemies.” He performeth that which is given me to do; He perfecteth that which concerneth me.
I live and move and have my being in God; therefore, I need not fear; I need not fight because the battle is not mine.
“Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty”—no struggle, only peace. “Peace, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth,” a peace that comes from destroying the neighboring country or people, not a peace that comes from having a stockpile of atomic bombs, but My peace. Nothing can destroy me; nothing can harm me; for there is nothing but My peace.”
This morning I drove down to Terrapin Hill for the last day of our Homecoming Gathering. The first presentation that I attended was Heidi Yurka’s where she was asked: “When did Andrija Puharich begin his spiritual journey?” “How long was Heidi with Don and Carla?” “What did the first UFO entities look like that Heidi saw?” “Can you use your psychic abilities to see the future?” and “What do you do to enhance your psychic abilities?”
At 3 pm we were had a Round Robin where we shared the most important experience that we have had in the Homecoming Gathering so far. Then we had our channeling session, and the questions that Gary, Trish, Austin, and I were asked were: “How do we deal with anger?” “What is the purpose of the physical body?” “Talk about how we are the Creator and, therefore, our best friend?” And “What is the nature of the mystery of the Creator in our spiritual journey?” I must say that since Carla began holding Homecoming Gatherings in 1995, this was the best Homecoming Gathering that I have ever attended! I made a lot of new friends, and I got to spend time with a lot of long-time friends, and I hope that all of these spiritual connections last for the rest of my life!
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:
May 17
Hope Is Always A Choice
I am of the principle of Jesus the Christ, and I greet you in the divine wholeness of Love.
This contact is very weak, as this instrument is very weak. A great deal of the strength or weakness of a person’s essential being hinges upon its desire to be strong.
Why would one wish to be weak? Because one is lacking in hope. Why would one wish to lack in hope? It is not seen that this is open to the process of choice. Yet hope is always a choice. Despair is only one side of the coin which may be turned by the will, at any moment, by anyone, in any circumstance, to hope. Thus, we say to you this morning, “Hope! Hope in little things! Hope in grand things! Fill your hearts, your bodies, and your minds with the strength of hope.”
For hope is unending and is that which guides the weary spirit to its place of rest where it may gain strength. And hope shall be turned into joy.
This is part of the grace of the Spirit of Love that lives amidst each conscious entity. This is part of the comfort that may astound and transform your experience. This is for you!
These are not vain words. You who despair, turn your mind to the power of hope. Gaze upon it as upon a star and affix your intentions upon it with perseverance. And so shall you be made strong, to be the will of the Father.
In Love and peace unending do we leave you. 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.
