L/L Research Transcripts
September 22, 2009
Copyright © 2009 L/L Research ABOUT THE CONTENTS OF THIS TRANSCRIPT: This telepathic channeling has
been taken from transcriptions of the weekly study and meditation
meetings of the Rock Creek Research & Development Laboratories and L/L
Research. It is offered in the hope that it may be useful to you. As
the Confederation entities always make a point of saying, please use
your discrimination and judgment in assessing this material. If
something rings true to you, fine. If something does not resonate,
please leave it behind, for neither we nor those of the Confederation
would wish to be a stumbling block for any. Special Meditation September 22, 2009 Jim: The question this evening from J is, "How can I enter into
contact with my higher self and get daily guidance from it with such
clarity that I would be able to clearly identify that I am receiving
guidance from my higher self and not from my imagination or from any
other sources? What spiritual principles may I use to aid me in
receiving guidance?" (Carla channeling) We are those known to you as Q'uo. Greetings in the love and in the
light of the one infinite Creator, in whose service we come to you
this evening. It is a privilege and a pleasure to be called to your
circle of seeking. We are delighted to share with you our humble
thoughts concerning the subject of receiving information from your
guidance system. However, before we begin, as always we would ask all of those who
listen to or read these words to use their discrimination and
discernment in choosing which of the thoughts that we share to retain.
Follow the resonance in that which is said. If thoughts are resonant
to you, keep them by all means and work with them as is useful to you.
If they do not resonate to you, we ask that you leave them behind. In
this way we can be sure that we have not infringed upon your free will
or the sanctity of your spiritual process. We thank you for this
consideration. The subject of receiving good information from one's guidance is a
good subject upon which to ponder and to seek because the quality of
that which is given you from your own guidance is very high. It is the
gift to the self from the self to have this guidance system. Each
entity exists both in third density, as a creature of flesh and blood,
and as that energy body which is the self within time/space [within
mid-sixth density. These two are] inexorably linked. This energy
entity is a citizen of eternity and dwells in infinite time. The foundation of each seeker's guidance system is his own higher
self, that self who, in mid-sixth density, has experienced all that is
desired. When that entity realizes fully that he shall no longer
desire or seek to fulfill desires, but instead turn towards the call
of the infinite Creator to rejoin It fully, it turns one last time to
what you would see as the past and creates a thought form that
contains all of the harvest of that which he has learned throughout
all of his incarnations in all densities through the sixth. This thought form he leaves with the developing entity wherever it is,
in whatever incarnation it is experiencing, so that at any time he may
call upon his highest and best self and ask how to evaluate things and
whatever other advice he deems needed. This higher self is joined by at least three angelic entities. This
instrument calls [two of] these angelic entities the Holy Spirit in
his male and female aspect. Others consider the angelic entities to be
gurus or literally angels. Some entities who are seeking to serve the
light collect about them as many as a dozen angelic presences or more,
all of whom wish to support and encourage that service to the light
which the seeker has undertaken within incarnation. This service is not necessarily an outer service. Many are those who
create that portal within themselves which holds a space wherein light
may come through from those realms of pure love into third density.
This is a great service in itself and may be offered by a seeker in
any condition of life whatever. The spiritual principle involved in seeking one's guidance is that
which can be called faith. Faith is often misunderstood among your
peoples for they confuse faith with belief. Belief is always belief in
something; perhaps a creed or a system of tenets that form a dogmatic
system. A believer believes specific points or speaks to a specific
creed. Faith, on the other hand, has no content. It contains no knowledge. It
is an attitude. It is the attitude that knows beyond doubt, regardless
of the circumstances, that all is well. And the entity who is living a
life in faith cannot be daunted by circumstance. Faith is an attitude
which assumes that the infinite Creator, the higher self, and that
self which planned this incarnation before taking flesh have provided
ample opportunities for learning and for service. Sometimes involved in learning is suffering. Sometimes there is sorrow
and pain. Yet one living a life in faith knows that that which is
happening is perfect. It is precisely what is needed to advance
spiritually and to be of service. Consequently, such an entity
cooperates and harmonizes with circumstance and allows creativity and
imagination to play a part in the flowing forward of events. Faith does not recognize closed doors. Faith abides, patiently,
trustingly and with infinite attention. For there shall come those
hints, inklings and information from spirit that shall illuminate the
situation within the present moment. And this faith is that which
shall serve you well, my brother, as you learn to listen to and
communicate with your guidance system. There is no such thing as being able, without any doubt whatsoever, to
know that you are communicating with your guidance. There is a reason
for this unknowing. Each entity within third density is given complete
free will to choose those things which he desires. And that which he
desires shall be given unto him. In this atmosphere of free will, it
is not desirable from the standpoint of spiritual growth that there be
some way to test and prove spiritual events or influences. Instead of such objective means of determining the validity of
metaphysical experiences, the seeker is given, instead, the ability to
set intentions, such as speaking with one's guidance. Once this
intention has been carefully and profoundly set in such a way that the
self hears the self on a deep level, it is necessary only to proceed
to have a conversation on a continuing basis with your guidance. This instrument communicates with its higher self using a computer.
She types in her questions and then allows her mind to be filled with
a thought. That thought comes and she types it into the computer. If
she desires to communicate further, she types in another question and
then again waits for a thought. When it comes she types it without
questioning it, judging it, or in any way analyzing it. It is a simple procedure, my brother, and it is a protective one in
that your guidance system dwells within your protected aura. This
communication cannot be disrupted by psychic greeting. Its very
simplicity however, frustrates and baffles the intellectual mind. If
the intellectual mind is allowed to work it shall immediately begin
asking, "How do I know that this thought is not my thought? How do I
know that I am receiving guidance from a legitimate guidance system?" My brother, you shall never know in that objective way of proof until
the day comes when your scientists are able to create instrumentation
to track vibration of this subtle kind. By the time this is done, my
brother, you shall be either in fourth density or your home density,
having concluded your service and your learning upon Planet Earth. Therefore, your objective needs to be to continue and persevere,
having conversations, if possible, daily, keeping a record, either on
the computer or writing by hand. Gradually, you shall build up a
sufficient amount of material in order to have the ability to look
back upon the collected experiences of this conversation as it
continues. The longer that you continue with this discipline, the more
dense shall be the patterns of congruency and harmonization that you
shall begin to see. Gradually you shall begin to gain confidence in
this source of intelligence, not because of objective proof but
because of an increasing amount of synchronicity and coincidence of a
spiritually interesting nature that shall begin to grow up around this
conversation. Eventually you shall come to trust in this source of inspiration and
information because it has stood you in good stead over a period of
time and because there has come to be a certain energy which you can
associate with this conversation which comes at no other time. We sympathize with the frustration that you feel at not being able to
be certain in an intellectual way of the validity of this method of
receiving guidance. However, it is not spiritually helpful to
experience that model where you purchase guidance as though it were a
product that you can buy at a store. It is far more helpful to you to
dwell within your humanity in unknowing while pursuing a life in
faith. You dwell as a human being in third density in a world of facts and
figures and weights and measures, and often, my brother, they do not
speak the truth even though they are facts. Conversely, in the world
of spirit you dwell in a land of mystery and paradox, yet that
information which you are able to bring through in your protected,
sacred conversation grows into that substantial reality which to you
becomes more real than the facts and figures, weights and measures of
third-density, space/time reality. We applaud you, my brother, for seeking your guidance in this way. We
know that you shall launch yourself into midair as is the way of faith
and that you shall find firm footing in that midair as you allow
yourself to remain empty so that you may be filled with those gifts of
the spirit which are yours. My brother, a life in faith is supported best by entering the silence
on a daily basis in whatever way that you should wish. Within that
silence is all of the information you need. However, it is not offered
in words, or even concepts. It flows, rather, in the currents of
silence into your deepest heart, there to lodge securely and to bubble
up into the daily life in dreams and visions and those feelings that
are typical of a gnostic knowledge rather than an intellectual one.
[1] May we ask if there is a follow-up to this query before we take other
questions? We are those of Q'uo. Jim: (On the telephone.) Would you like to ask one of your other
follow-up questions? J: The follow-up question is, "I started a few months ago to write
every morning and every evening all the things I'm grateful for. How
do you see this? Is it useful? Is there any way to improve it? What
spiritual principles would help me think about the situation?" We are those of Q'uo, and are aware of your query, my brother.
Gratitude is indeed a spiritual principle, my brother. The energy of
gratitude contains a world of wisdom and compassion. For one is
gratified not only because of the good things, so called, not only the
sunny days, but the rainy days, the stormy days, the tsunami. All
weathers whatsoever, all, are occasions for gratitude. Therefore, this
practice is of a very high order of excellence and we commend you, my
brother, for working with this principle in humility and in joy. There is simplicity to the spiritual walk that baffles the
intellectual mind. All that occurs is that which comes before the self
in order that the self may practice responding with vibrations as
close as humanly possible to the vibration of the one infinite
Creator, which is unconditional love. Consequently, the response of
one that is vibrating at his highest and best shall always be love. Garnering to oneself the energies of thanksgiving and gratitude create
for the self a tuning of the instrument that is his deepest nature, so
that he may more and more be able to sound the melodies of spirit that
flow through his wind instrument as he breathes, as he speaks, as he
thinks, and as he acts. This attitude of thanksgiving and gratitude
creates an ever uplifting energy that brings the seeker more and more
into the realms of truth, that truth which cannot be spoken but which
can be felt. We would not know how to advise you, my brother, of how to improve
upon this practice. However, as you have already initiated a practice
of recording those things for which you are thankful, and as you are
seeking diligently to begin and continue a conversation with your
guidance system, we feel that if there are refinements or additions to
such a practice, it shall organically well up within you, in quietness
and in confidence, as to how you shall alter your practice. You are like the tree that is planted by the water. As your roots
drink the infinite love and light of the one infinite Creator, and as
the sun of your turning to spirit allows you to thrive, so shall you
bloom, first with the bud, then the blossom, then the leaf and finally
the fruit. Who knows when your seasons turn or how you shall
experience them? What is certain is that in establishing these
practices, you are opening yourself up maximally to those resources
that shall offer you the way forward, step by step, never reaching,
never avoiding, but always walking in faith. It is said in your holy works, "In quietness and confidence is your
strength." [2] So, my brother, is the way of those whose feet are set
upon the King's Highway. [3] May we ask if there is another query at this time? We are those of
Q'uo. Jim: (On the telephone.) Would you like to go onto the visualization
question? J: The next question is, "What is the purpose of dreaming and the
benefit of lucid dreaming?" We are those of Q'uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. The
energies of love and light that we have discussed previously that are
so richly filled in silence are those energies of a very deep nature,
communicating with the roots of consciousness within you, that
consciousness that you share with all that is. Within this
consciousness lie energies that are as rivers, lakes and oceans. You
tap into them with your emotions thusly. As you go through your day,
if there is little emotion felt then you do not impress or call these
deep-flowing waters upward into the conscious mind. However, my brother, it is rare that there is a day in which there are
not those emotional responses to catalyst that do reach an intensity
that calls to those archetypal waters in the roots of mind. The
response to those emotions and events felt and seen in your day build
up until, within your sleeping time, there is that response from deep
within you which is called a dream. [Dreams] are gifts of spirit. When one's emotions are muddied, the
dreams may well also be muddied and shallow. However, when one is on a
spiritual path and has developed practices such as you have developed,
the events of each day have a tendency to become more lucid and to
reach down with a refined emotional energy so that the messages within
dreams can bubble up in a clearer and more lucid fashion into your
conscious mind. Oftentimes there is the attempt within dreams of the self to come more
into balance with that which is distorted either for joy or for
sorrow. Images seen within dreams often give one clues as to the true
nature of perceived experience or the deeper nature of that experience
which has many layers, some of which you may not have seen. The keeping of a dream journal, then, is a way of receiving
intelligence concerning those issues which are grist for your mill as
a spiritual seeker. Such a practice constitutes a genuine resource for
the seeker. The virtue of lucid dreaming, where one becomes aware that one is
dreaming, is the same virtue of one who becomes aware within the dream
of waking life that he is a true witness and that he has the capacity
to form his own responses. When one is able to, say, move an arm
within the dream character that represents himself, or is in some way
able to enter into the dream as though it were a waking vision, that
lucidity sharpens the ability to grasp and retain the infinite details
of the concepts which are couched within the dream. There is a priestly responsibility that goes along with lucid
dreaming. That which one is able to comprehend, one is then
responsible for using. As this instrument would say, it is more
important in lucid dreaming to "walk the talk" of the dream. We thank the one known as J for this query, for we do feel that
focusing upon dreams and giving them honor and respect shall
inevitably offer the improvement of this activity as a spiritual
resource. We are those of Q'uo, and would ask if there is another query at this
time. Jim: (On the telephone.) Which one would you like to go to now? J: The next one is, "Could you give me advice on out-of-body
experiences and how to have one, and are they safe?" (Side one of tape ends.) (Carla channeling) We are those of Q'uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. For
each entity, the answer to the question of, "Are out-of-body
experiences safe," is different. Indeed, for one entity in incarnation
the answer would be variable. To be conservative, we would respond by
saying that the moving out of body is safe only when it is a learned
experience and that learning takes place in a group wherein there are
senior entities who are experienced at collaboration with those who
are traveling out-of-body and who are aware of ways to surround such
activities with protection. It may be said that we are conservative when offering this opinion,
for in many cases there is an innocence to moving out of the body. Yet
in some cases, that innocence can be rudely interrupted, for it is a
crowded universe, my brother, and when one is seeking the light with
all of one's heart and soul and mind and strength, one stands close to
the light. And when one stands close to the light because of one's
intention to serve and seek the light, that light causes the entity to
cast a shadow that is seen by service-to-self entities who are fond of
distracting and even destroying entities who are out of body. It is as though one were taking a walk in a neighborhood that was high
in crime and violence, or in a war zone. Perhaps you should be able to
move into the farthest reaches that you wish and come home to your
body without incident. However, it is also possible that you might be
set upon and then you should find it difficult to move back into your
physical body. Consequently, we would suggest that you pursue this
interest by contacting a trusted source of knowledge and experience,
such as the Monroe Institute. [4] We take this information from this
instrument's memory. Again, we feel that such interests should be pursued with that organic
feeling of resonance. If this is an activity that is resonant for you
then we encourage you to follow it, but not by yourself. May we ask if there is a final query at this time? Jim: (On the telephone.) Do you have a final query? J: The final query is, "How can visualization help create things in my
life and do you have any recommendations to improve this activity?" We are the principle of Q'uo, and are aware of your query. This
question on visualization is a delicate one, my brother, in that it is
possible to visualize and desire many things. And it is a legitimate
thing to desire anything whatsoever and to visualize it in order to
bring it into your experience. And it shall work if you wish to use
the power of visualization in this way. You have only to identify
precisely that which you wish and then spend time gazing lovingly at
that object of desire. However, it is possible to desire the things of Earth which can be
spoken of and listed in number. It is also possible to desire those
things which are of the heaven-world, shall we say, such as desiring
to do the will of the one infinite Creator, desiring to see the love
in each moment, desiring to see the Creator in the eyes of all whom
you meet, and desiring to dedicate your life to service in the love
and the light of the one Creator. The desiring of these things and the visualization of them is likewise
powerful, yet it attracts to you not this or that; rather, it attracts
to you that resonance within which you may associate with the one
infinite Creator ... We must pause while this instrument becomes able again to enter its
original tuning, for the telephone device and the headset which this
instrument was using ceased working. [5] This instrument has now found
another instrument, as it were, with which she may continue to relay
the thoughts that we wish to share. And as we speak through this
instrument we are restoring the tuning, that we may continue to answer
this query on visualization. My brother, we would recommend that you be careful and cautious in
visualizing anything that is an object. Rather, we would encourage you
to create visualizations concerning your highest and deepest desires
to serve, asking simply that you be an instrument that the Creator may
play according to Its will, so that you may be truly inspired and a
creature who vibrates with the love and the light of the one infinite
Creator. If you desire and visualize this, then that which you need for your
learning and for your service shall come to you without reaching,
without worry or concern, and you shall find that your life develops
in a way that is far more rewarding and, as this instrument would say,
awesome, than any visualization which you may choose. We would, however, say that there are visualizations for the good of
humankind, such as peace on Earth, peace in the hearts of humankind,
love in the hearts of humankind, and such concerns as this, that are
the proper concern of those who would do work in consciousness. These
visualization on behalf of the tribe of humankind are blessed indeed. We find that this instrument and this group's energies begin to wane,
and so at this time, reluctantly we must admit, we shall take our
leave of this instrument and of this group, leaving each in the love
and in the light of the one infinite Creator. We are known to you as
the principle of Q'uo. Adonai. Adonai vasu. [1] Gnostic knowledge comes through direct apprehension of truth and
one's intuition whereas intellectual knowledge comes through learning
facts and arranging them in logical order. [2] Holy Bible, Isaiah 30:15: "For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy
One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness
and in confidence shall be your strength." [3] This phrase is seen in several currently popular songs, but the
one to which the instrument refers is the hymn written by E. A.
Cummins in 1922. The first verse of this hymn is, "I know not where
the road will lead I follow day by day, or where it ends, I only know
I walk the King's Highway." [4] The Monroe Institute's web site is www.monroeinstitute.org. [5] The instrument's headset telephone, which makes it possible for a
person to attend a session by telephone and hear what is channeled,
chose this session as its time to die. The instrument fiddled with the
phone to get it to work but failed. Jim then handed her another
portable telephone, which she held by hand for the remainder of the
session. She regained her tuning quickly.
