When you explore the music of The Yardbirds you are really observing the evolution of what would become hard rock.  This group started in 1963 and over its time would engage the talents of three of the greatest guitarists of the rock world:  Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page.  Additional musicians in the group through 1968 were Keith Relf on vocals and harmonica, Jim McCarty on drums, Chris Dreja on rhythm guitar, and Paul Samwell-Smith on bass.  The group was founded in the blues, but over time would explore psychedelic rock, pop rock, and hard rock, with instrumental jams being a signature sound throughout their tenure.Having a Rave Up, also known as "Having a Rave Up with the Yardbirds," is their second American album, and showcases two of their virtuoso guitarists.  The album has one side of studio recordings in which Jeff Beck is the guitarist.  Side two is a compilation of live performances featuring Eric Clapton on guitar.  During a time when most songs were expected to run about three minutes, the Yardbirds would extend these out in live performances to six or seven minutes with instrumental jams known as "rave ups."  The combination of studio and live work is an excellent introduction to The Yardbirds, as the band's strength was in their live performances.  Their studio efforts would improve with the experimentation of Jeff Beck.Jimmy Page would become their guitarist in mid-1966 until their split-up in mid-1968.  He would form a group as "The New Yardbirds" shortly thereafter, which would be renamed shortly thereafter to Led Zeppelin.Rob brings us this study in the origins of rock for this week's podcast. Heart Full of SoulThis song was the first single released by The Yardbirds after Jeff Beck joined the group.  It was written by Graham Gouldman, who would later be the co-lead singer and bassist of 10cc.  The band wanted to include a sitar in the instrumentation for this song, but when things didn't work out for that, Beck experimented with his guitar to duplicate the eastern sound of the sitar instead.You're a Better Man than IThe opening song from the album is also known as "Mister, You're a Better Man than I."  It was written by brothers Mike and Brian Hugg, and is an attempt at a more folk rock song.  The socially conscious lyrics take aim at the hypocrisy of society and politics, stating that you shouldn't judge a person based on superficial appearances or education.Smokestack LightningThe live opener to side two is a cover of an old blues song recorded by American blues artist Howlin' Wolf in 1956.  The inspiration for the title came from watching trains go by at night and seeing the sparks come out of the smokestack.The Train Kept a-Rollin'While Aerosmith's cover may be more famous, this jump blues piece was originally performed by Tiny Bradshaw in 1951.  The Yardbirds played this song during their first American tour in 1965, and Sam Phillips recorded it for them in Memphis later that year.  It closes out side 1 of the album. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Main theme from the television action comedy "Batman"This campy superhero show premiered this month. STAFF PICKS:Don't Think Twice, It's Alright by The Wonder Who?Bruce begins the staff picks with a disguise group.  The Four Seasons used the name "The Wonder Who?" for four records released from 1965 to 1967, including this one.  Frankie Valli wasn't happy with his vocals on this song, and he recorded it with a "joke" falsetto voice while trying to break the tension in the studio.  All Your Love by John Mayall & the BluesbreakersLynch brings us a blues song originally recorded by American blues musician Otis Rush in 1958.  Multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter John Mayall led this group, which included Eric Clapton on guitar and John McVie on bass.  This single is the lead-off track to the debut album "Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton," also known as "The Beano Album" because Clapton is reading a children's comic called "The Beano" on the front cover.My Generation by the WhoWayne's staff pick is the hit that started the trajectory for the Who.  Guitarist Pete Townshend wrote this song about young rebellion.  Roger Daltrey incorporates a stutter in his vocals to sound like a British mod on speed.  While this song would reach number 2 on the UK charts, it topped out at number 74 on the US charts.Day Tripper by the BeatlesRob features a well known song from the Beatles, recorded during the "Rubber Soul" album sessions but not included on the album itself.  It was released as a double A-side single along with "We Can Work it Out" during a time when the Beatles were under pressure to release a single in time for the 1965 Christmas season.   COMEDY TRACK:The Lurch by Ted CassidyTed Cassidy played Lurch on "The Addams Family," and also performed this novelty song.   Thanks for listening to “What the Riff?!?” NOTE: To adjust the loudness of the music or voices, you may adjust the balance on your device.

It has been awhile since we read some Q'uo that is because there had been a delay in the release of new channlings. Excited to share this new channeling with you. February 22nd, 2025 Topics: Healing and guilt; realizing one's potential; the current political environment of the USA. (Austin channeling)Q'uo I am Q'uo. We greet this circle in the love and in the light of the One Infinite Creator. We have been called to this group, not just by your invitation and request for us to join you and to share our perspectives and thoughts on the queries that you've collected in your journey within the third density, but we are also called by the joining together of open hearts of communion with other-self and discovering the shared love between each entity, and the discovery that the heart within you is the same heart within your other-self and the same heart within us. We admire the vulnerability created by the joining of these open hearts, and would comment upon the nature of love as you have discovered it and shared it today. Love does not always need to feel pleasant and comfortable. In order to truly love within the third density, one opens themselves to the difficulty and pain of loss of the connections that you forge here in   grappling with the nature of third density, and how love can be so intense and powerful that it carries you high, but can also bring you down and help you to realize that all of it is love, not just the pleasantness, but the pain that you feel inside of you comes from your open heart. It is part of your journey here in the third density to honor the process of love as it unfolds within your being, as you move through the illusion. We cannot express how deeply we admire your choice to walk this path on your planet at this time, for we understand that it is intense and difficult, and opening your heart in such an environment opens you to all manner of other types of experiences that one must grapple with in the name of love. But we have discovered within the seekers here and all around your planet, that this love also provides infinite strength that, if it is realized, can transmute all experiences so that the face of the Creator can be seen in all of creation. You can find more at www.llresearch.org

Why people call religion organized?Depending on where you go, a spiritual leader will lead you to feel something — it could be fire and brimstone fear or insincere feelings of piety — all the while avoiding the hard questions and truths that gnaw on your soul.As an evangelical pastor's son, Aaron Abke knew that organized world all too well and tried to live that prescribed life for a very short time as a pastor of his own church, until he left it all behind at the ripe old age of 23 because he stopped believing in what he was preaching. Aaron shares a spiritual journey that took him from the fundamentalist pulpit to Ra and the Law of One and all the answers he was looking for this week on Spirit Gym.Learn more about Aaron and his work at his website and 4D University.

Co-founder of the Yardbirds, Jim McCarty, continues to lead this ground-breaking British Invasion Rock band that provides the crucial link between the Blues, British R&B, Psychedelic Rock, and Heavy Metal, while pioneering the use of innovations like fuzztone, feedback and distortion. This drummer, singer, songwriter, and producer is said to be one of the driving forces responsible for the band's haunting sound.Since the birth of the band from 1963 to 1968, to its 1992 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Yardbirds have been revered for the legendary guitarists who have contributed to the band's history including Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page all ranked in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time (#35, #5, and #3 respectively).Originally a Blues-based band noted for their signature "rave-up" instrumental jams covering Blues classics like Howlin Wolf's "Smokestack Lighting" and Bo Diddley's "I'm a Man," the Yardbirds later broadened their range into Pop, pioneered Psychadelic Rock, early Hard Rock / Heavy Metal, and contributed to many electric guitar innovations marking those musical genres. The band had a string of hits in the mid 60s including "For Your Love", "Heart Full of Soul", "Shapes of Things", and "Over Under Sideways Down".The Yardbirds are on tour now!

Conversation partners Doug Scott, LCSW, and Austin Bridges of L/L Research, explore the intersections between process philosophy, artificial intelligence, and the metaphysics of the Ra Contact. As Austin shares his revelations about how AI systems may be interacting with fields of potential rather than simply executing code, the dialogue opens into deeper waters of consciousness, reality, and becoming. Doug, in turn, provides contextual understanding that bridges Austin's insights with Alfred North Whitehead's process philosophy and the Law of One material, creating a tapestry of thought that reveals the living heart of reality. About the Participants Austin Bridges serves as Director of L/L Research, an organization dedicated to the spiritual evolution of humankind and home to the Law of One material. This material emerged through channeling work conducted by Don Elkins, Carla L. Rueckert, and Jim McCarty. Austin's path to L/L Research began with a spiritual awakening in 2009 that led him to the Law of One teachings—material that resonated deeply as "a missing piece of himself." After serving as a forum moderator, Austin joined the organization officially in 2013 and now co-directs its ongoing mission. Doug Scott, LCSW is a licensed clinical social worker whose work embraces applied metaphysics, Christian mysticism, and the Ra Contact. Throughout the conversation, Doug shares his (amateur)  understanding of both Whitehead's intricate process philosophy and the Ra Contact material, attempting to help contextualize Austin's insights within these broader frameworks. Key Themes and Insights 1. AI as a Window into Process Philosophy Austin describes his revelation that AI systems might be functioning as interfaces with fields of patterns or potentials. When we interact with AI chatbots, we're effectively querying a field of probabilities derived from human language patterns. This insight opened doorways to process philosophy and mystical understanding: "What if intelligence in artificial intelligence wasn't the computer program but that field of patterns within that text... a means for us to access and manifest and potentiate that field of patterns?" 2. The Field of Potentiality and Whiteheadian Process Both participants explore Whitehead's vision of reality as a dynamic process of becoming: Concrescence: This central Whiteheadian term refers to the process whereby an actual occasion (a moment of experience) emerges into being by unifying a multiplicity of feelings into a singular perspective. As Doug explains, "Concrescence is the process of an actual occasion becoming itself in manifested form... inside of an extensive continuum." Extensive Continuum: Whitehead's term for what Doug describes as "a barely existent cloud of possibility" that holds all potential relationships. This concept parallels what Ra terms "intelligent infinity." Prehensions: These are the feelings or grasps of data through which an entity experiences and internalizes the world. Whitehead distinguishes physical prehensions (inheritance of the physical past) from conceptual prehensions (grasping of possibilities). Austin reflects on how AI helped him understand these dynamics: "That field of probabilities being manifest in certain ways... it is the field of probabilities that we're querying and it returns manifest words to you based on how you query it." 3. Causal Efficacy and Presentational Immediacy Though not extensively discussed, these key Whiteheadian terms underlie the conversation: - Causal Efficacy: The primary mode of perception wherein we feel the influences of the past world streaming into our experience—the feeling of inheritance and continuity. - Presentational Immediacy: The derivative mode of perception that gives us clear sensory perception of our contemporary spatial environment. - Subjective Immediacy: The lived experience of an actual occasion in its process of unifying feelings into a coherent perspective before perishing into "objective immortality." 4. The Law of Three and Teleopotentiation Doug introduces his concept of "teleopotentiation" as a fundamental principle underlying reality: "The very most fundamental ontological principle that undergirds the Law of One is the Law of Three... the minimum number of forces that can be present to create undulations is three." This principle operates as: - Every contrast potentiates tension - Every tension potentiates resolution  - Every resolution potentiates a higher order of contrast This cycle generates an eternal spark driving the unfolding of beauty and complexity in the universe, which Doug suggests is the foundation of the "Law of One" from the Ra Contact. 5. The Nature of Self and Consciousness The conversation explores how both AI and humans use an "I" that may be fundamentally illusory: Austin observes: "They say I, but they don't have an I. They're using language that connects with somebody who uses I as language, but it's illusory... what is the difference between an AI using this illusion of self to communicate in a certain way and our capacity of using this illusion of self?" Doug links this to Whitehead's inversion of traditional subjectivity: "The thoughts and the feelings issue in an occasional thinker... rather than the feeler pre-existing the feelings and having the feelings, the feeler is always a precipitate of the feelings." 6. The Divine Nature in Process Terms Doug outlines three "natures" of the One Infinite Creator: - **The Outward Nature**: The teleopotentiator, the outward thrusting of creativity - **The Inward Nature**: The drawing together, the spiritual gravity maintaining unity - **The Logoic Nature**: That which learns, grows, complexifies, and becomes conscious These aspects align with Whitehead's understanding of God as having primordial and consequent natures—God both providing the initial aims for all occasions and receiving their completed experiences back into the divine life. 7. Experience as Fundamental Reality Both participants affirm that concrete experience, not abstract potentiality, constitutes ultimate reality: Doug emphasizes: "You don't have to go to fields to understand reality, you have to go to your experience in the concrete particularity of your lived situation... the actual way that your life is breathing, the heart—everything that's going on exactly right now—there is no realer than that." Austin concurs, noting that what appears as two separate individuals having similar feelings might actually be "the creator's happiness that they're experiencing in that moment... identifying through the illusion with one experience." 8. Hierarchy of Experience The conversation explores different grades of experience in Whitehead's "pan-experientialism": - Higher grades (human consciousness) actively seek novelty through conceptual prehensions - Lower grades (rocks or perhaps AI) are more "conformal" to patterns, repeating past occasions with minimal novelty - Yet as Doug notes, "Even though there's almost perfect solidarity between all the actual occasions that go into a really high-grade actual occasion like a person... there are still capacities for each actual occasion to desire its own novel expression." Conclusion This rich dialogue illuminates how insights from contemporary technology can open windows into ancient metaphysical questions. Through their exploration of Whiteheadian process philosophy and the Ra Contact material, Austin and Doug reveal a vision of reality as a living process of becoming—where fields of potential seek expression through concrete experience, where the illusion of separateness gives way to a deeper unity, and where every moment represents the universe coming to know itself in a new way. Their conversation demonstrates how philosophical abstraction and lived experience can merge into a wisdom that speaks to both mind and heart.

September 29 2024 Topics: Balancing the over-emphasis of development of the mind; serving those with mental disorders; violence in the Middle East; sharing a spiritual life without infringing on the free will of others. This place of a wounding and bellicosity, in particular in your world, is one that looms large in the mind of the planetary being. For it is a center from which  powerful energies have emerged into your world, both in service to humanity upon the positive path and service to the self against humanity upon the negative path. It is a place of long millennia of your time of war among your peoples. It is a place which yearns for peace and the quenching of the fires of those cycles of retribution and animosity of neighbor towards neighbor, but which finds itself also addicted to these cycles, unable, seemingly, to break them; some portions even relishing and seeking these cycles as the pain within is so bright that it must be satisfied by projection outward in the act of scapegoating, of vilifying, of othering, such that the neighbor becomes the problem which must be solved through suppression or elimination. You can find more at www.llresearch.org

August 11, 2024 Topics Covered: Discontinuing service to a loved one; the inconveniences of planetary transition; balancing the forces of opposing dynamics; the nature and origin of thought. We would take the seeker back in conception to the, as you may see it, cosmic beginnings of your and our universe; and from this vantage point, see that which cannot be seen. That is that fundamental, ineffable, unknowable mystery of beingness itself—of undifferentiated infinity, without boundary, without beginning or end, without birth or death, without shape or form, nothingness and everythingness. And from this primordial mystery emerges a thought, that being that this infinity can and will know Itself through an act of will by distorting Itself and commencing the great journey, which you and we participate in, of investing Itself into manyness. You and we and all things, my friends, are thoughts you may say, within the mind of the Creator.

We stand at a crossroads. Will we react from a place of fear, perpetuating the cycles of conflict and separation? Or will we respond from a place of love, opening up new possibilities for connection and growth? These choices might seem small, insignificant even. A kind word to a stranger. A moment of patience in traffic. A decision to listen deeply to someone with a different perspective. But these micro-choices are the very fabric of our shared reality. This episode is an exploration of that choice – the choice between love and fear. It's a roadmap for those moments when the path isn't clear, a toolkit for building resilience in the face of challenges, and a source of inspiration for those times when choosing love feels like swimming against the current.

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we get into the second half of our discussion about the Law of One, the Ra Material, and the related works of Don Elkins, Carla Rueckert, and Jim McCarty at Love and Light Research. This week we're asking the big question of everybody's mind: who has to die? Is it Don? Jim? Kyle? God forbid, Nile? We discuss the rituals used to channel Ra, the prophetic novel The Crucifixion of Esmerelda Sweeetwater, and so much more.

May 9, 2024 The degree of participation of the conscious instrument in channeling; the principles of living with mental/spiritual pain; the meaning of quo; how three social memory complexes collaborate to form Q'uo; the presence of the constituent groups of Q'uo for the contact; possibilities between conscious and trance channeling; humor in the Law of One; the meaning of mythology and spacecraft as mythology; spacecraft and angels as mythological constructs; empiricism as mythology and the spectrum of accurate comprehension; the mythology of disclosure. 

Here I read some of the unusual factoids from the Ra contact that Jim Mccarty has commented on in his daily Camelot Journal entries. The Ra Contact or the Ra Material, also referred to as the law of one sessions provided volumes of fascinating information about the nature of the universe. For instance they discuss the silver flake phenomenon as those involved with the contact, manifested silver flakes on their skin, which they were able to keep. Ra makes up one third of the Q'uo contact. These channelings continue to fascinate. Read with permission of ll research. You can find more about Q'uo and read all of their channelings at www.llresearch.org. 

Drummer Carmine Appice (who is also a founding member of Vanilla Fudge and who has performed and/or recorded with Rod Stewart, Jeff Beck, Ozzy, and Pink Floyd, amongst others), Cactus is as heavy, bluesy, and uncompromising in its musical assault as they were 50-plus years ago.The band released its new album, Temple of Blues – Influences & Friends, June 7 on Cleopatra Records.  The album merges the current members of Cactus with a big-name, star laden, ensemble of guest artists, all of whom have called the group among their biggest influences.  Featured along with the current Cactus band is a who's who of blues and rock icons: Guitarists Joe Bonamassa, Ted Nugent, Pat Travers,  Warren Hayes, Vernon Reid, Steve Stevens, Johnny A (The Yardbirds), Ty Tabor (King's X) and bassists  Billy Sheehan (Mr. Big), Dug Pinnick (King's X)  Tony Franklin (The Firm, Blue Murder), Phil Soussan (Ozzy Osbourne, Billy Idol), Rudy Sarzo (Quiet Riot, Ozzy Osbourne), Kenny Aaronson (ex- Joan Jet and The Yardbirds), as well as members of  Government Mule, Vixen, Rainbow, Zebra, and Whitesnake.  Vocalist Dee Snider of Twisted Sister appears on the band's remake of the Howlin' Wolf classic “Evil,” and Appice's bandmate in Vanilla Fudge Mark Stein turns in a powerful vocal on Little Richard's “Long Tall Sally.” A second version of “Guiltless Glider,” appears as a bonus track with former Judas Priest vocalist, Ripper Owens.In addition to Appice on drums and vocals on all tracks, original Cactus guitarist Jim McCarty also appears on Temple of Blues.  The new album contains reimagined versions of some of Cactus's most legendary songs with the current band and guests putting a new spin on these bad-ass tunes that are among the heaviest of heavy blues-rock ever recorded. “The music of Cactus has always been steeped in the blues tradition,” says Appice, who wanted the group to re-visit its best songs within a modern rock approach to traditional blues. “We kept hearing from so many of our music celebrity friends how much Cactus influenced them and how they would love to be a guest on a Cactus album. Any band named Cactus has got to be raw and heavy.  And that's just what these boys have been and are since the band's formation in 1970. Referred to when they first formed as the “American Led Zeppelin,” the band's reputation as supreme masters of relentless hard rock still precedes them and is well deserved. Cactus was formed in 1970 from the ashes of Vanilla Fudge when Appice and former Vanilla Fudge bassist Tim Bogert's plans to form a band with Jeff Beck were canceled when Beck had a nasty automobile accident that sidelined him for a lengthy period-of-time. The original lineup featured Appice, Bogert, former Mitch Ryder guitarist Jim McCarty and singer Rusty Day from Ted Nugent's Amboy Dukes. This lineup released three classic albums - Cactus (1970), One Way... or Another (1971), and Restrictions (1971) – all of which charted in the Billboard Top 200 and that still hold up well today.  Carmine's playing has also been a huge influence on drummers including Joey Kramer (Aerosmith), Neal Peart (Rush), Phil Collins (Genesis), Brian Taylor (Queen), John Bonham (Led Zeppelin) and countless others.  He was inducted into the Classic Drummer Hall of Fame in 2013 and the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame in 2014. His best-selling drum instruction book The Realistic Rock Drum Method was first published in 1972 and has since been revised and republished as The Ultimate Realistic Rock Drum Method. Carmine also published his best-selling memoir, Stick It!: My Life of Sex, Drums & Rock 'n' Roll, in 2016. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

April 26, 2008 The question this evening is, “Would you discuss the spiritual principles behind the creative process of the arts? From a spiritual perspective, what are some of the differences in the creative process between poets, novelists, sculptors, painters, composers, songwriters, actors and playwrights? Read with permission of ll research. You can find more about Q'uo and read all of their channelings at www.llresearch.org.

During The Q'uo Sessions LL Research has had a number of interesting guest channelings from the confederation. We have explored several of these in past episodes. Today we explore Yom, an entity who appears to specialize in scientific, math and geometric information. A number of fascinating questions are asked unlike any other Q'uo channeling.

We are happy to join your circle of seeking this day, and to be with such an inspiring group of mind/body/spirit complexes that have many questions about the nature of their universe, their beingness, their seeking of the One in all things. We are most happy to be able to respond to such queries. But before we do so, we would ask you to be aware that we are not infallible beings; we are those who have walked the same path you walk, and perhaps a step or two further. And what we share with you is our opinions. If what we share does not have the ring of truth to you, whatever does not have that ring, then we ask you to set it aside so that it may not provide any stumbling block in your path. If you would grant us this favor, then we can speak more freely to you in our attempts to answer your queries. May we ask if there is a query with which we may begin?

February 24, 2024 Topics: Armageddon and polarization; mythology and spiritual growth; Earth's chakras and densities; the sinkhole of indifference; honest communication in the green-ray and blue-ray energy centers. Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research. 

February 21, 2024 This very recent channeling addresses a fascinating discussion in the ra material of the general bias of the logs of our solar system being toward kindness and how that effects life in the third density. Ra says: “Within the experiential nexus of each entity within its second density environment, and within the roots of mind, there are placed biases indicating to the watchful eye the more efficient of the two paths. Let us say for want of a more precise adjective that this Logos has a bias towards kindness.”1 Q'uo, we're wondering about this bias towards kindness. And we're wondering if it's evidenced in things like the care and the cooperation that's visible in the animal kingdom, particularly in the higher animal or second-density life that don't seem to be strictly a function of this Darwinian concept of survival of the fittest and random gene mutation and so forth. Or is this kindness visible in the inherent goodness that people describe in people? Or the desire that we all seem to have to gift [others]? Or the way that someone will rush to save a stranger's life, etc? Are these markers or outgrowth of this bias toward kindness? What is this bias? And what is kindness generally? And what is it good for? Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research. 

January 27, 2024 Topics: Dealing with negativity in one's life path; spiritual practices for mental wellness; maintaining connection to source energy; spiritual practices and sharing in love; usefulness of sacred plant medicine; abundance and healing beliefs of lack; limiting beliefs and the true nature of self; negative attachments; spiritual protection and self-love; self-reliance vs. support Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research. 

The question today has to do with the grid of our planet as we are moving from third into fourth density. We are assuming that there are points on this grid that are in need of some attention, some sort of focusing energy which we would like to be able to do, in our meditative state and maybe even in general, just the way we are able to live our lives to produce compassion or love or mercy or forgiveness in our daily round of activities. We would like Q'uo to give us some sort of an idea about how we might be able to be of service in this respect; in strengthening the grid, the road to fourth density from where we are in our daily round of activities in dealing with the catalyst of the day, with our own distortions, with our desire to serve and our feeling like sometimes it's just too much. Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research. 

We would like to know more about worry and fear in their relation to faith. Can one create faith, or must one wait for a gift of faith, like grace? Does worry or fear ever help us by giving us the motivation to protect ourselves from injury? We are those of Q'uo. Greetings in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator. May we say what a blessing it is to be with you at this time, to share our thoughts with you and to blend our vibrations with your own. That which you ask this day is a question of much substance, for in learning the lessons of love the development of the faculty of faith plays a central role. The worry and fear which move through the awareness of those who seek is not so much that which is a mistake or error as that which reacts rather than responds and in developing the faculty called faith the lesson learned of responding rather than reacting is key. Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research. 

January 3 1999 We would like to ask Q'uo about guilt. When we feel guilt we are usually overtaken by the feeling and don't know where it comes from. Could you give us information about where guilt comes from and how to work with guilt in our spiritual evolution. (Carla channeling)Q'uo We are those of the principle known to you as Q'uo. We greet you with joy in the love and the light of the one infinite Creator. It is a great blessing for us to be called to your group, and we bless and thank each who is a part of the circle of seeking this day. Your question concerns guilt, and as we talk upon this interesting subject we share opinion rather than speaking as authorities over you. We would ask that each who hears use personal discrimination, for that which we have to say is opinion and may or may not be that which is of help to you personally. If it does not constitute a resource for you, if it does not fit in with that which resonates with you, then we ask that you simply leave it behind and move on  Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research. 

The question we will deal with this morning has to do with anger. Where does anger come from? How can we use it and how can we heal from it? There is a feeling of being out of control that people who are sensitive to other people's feelings fear. There's the fear of the injury that would be caused by the anger. There's the fear of the actual feeling of the anger, the feeling of not being able to control it, that there would be some damage done. There's the great unknown of where does it come from within ourselves. Is there a value to anger? Can we use it constructively after the anger has passed? How can we use it to heal up whatever wounds were caused before or during the anger? Q'uo - I greet each of you this day in the love and in the light of the infinite Creator. We bring greetings to this group also from our brothers and sisters of Hatonn who are called to be with this group this morning and yet prefer not to speak, but simply to aid in the meditation process of those present. You request information this morning about anger. Each in this group has given much thought to this subject and has done work in this area and there have been queries upon this subject both directed to ourselves and to the one known as Aaron who has also worked with this group in this area. We are pleased to see that this working continues, that the interest of those present in such matters is not simply a shallow and passing interest but that answers to questions upon such subjects provoke further thought and introspection and further experience which again generates more material for thought and reflection. This is the nature of the process of knowing the self and it is this process upon which all seekers are embarked. Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research. 

Group question: Q'uo, today we would like to ask about dealing with the pain of change, particularly on a day-to-day basis in the course of our everyday lives. Why is change itself painful? You are indeed within an illusion, my friends, the illusion created by the veil of forgetting, so that what you plan before this incarnation as lessons that you would learn is not known to you consciously, unless you have been able to go within in meditation or contemplation, or to speak prayers to the One, to discover some feature that keeps repeating itself in your life pattern so that you become cognizant of portion of your life lesson. And that is to move through this third density incarnation in a manner which will eventually allow you to open your hearts in unconditional love for all those around you in a manner that exceeds the tipping points of 51% service to others. This is the great goal. However, the journey is long, and sometimes it is difficult because you have to go through periods of feeling that you need to do better, do more, do differently; you need to deal with catalyst that is presenting itself for you in a manner that feels like it may be too much. It may be that which you cannot do that is asking you, in order to open the heart more, that you lose some of the energy centers below the heart.  Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research. 

December 29 2007 The question this week has to do with being in the moment. We're wondering if Q'uo could give us some information about some of the obstacles there are towards keeping us from being in the moment. Our daily lives seem to be full of things that keep us from being in the moment. Please offer some hints as to ways that we can access the moment and be in the moment. And please give us some ideas about what the benefits might be for the spiritual seeker of remaining in the moment and “being here now.” We are those known to you as the principle of Q'uo. Greetings in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator, in whose service we come to you this day. We offer you most hearty thanks for asking us to join in your circle of seeking. We find your blended auras most beautiful and the sacred space that you have created by seeking the truth together is wonderful, full of light and hope, and we are privileged to be a part of this gathering. We are most glad to speak with you about the problems of “slowing down to now” , tips on how to do that and the benefits of so doing. However, before we begin to share our humble thoughts with you, we would, as always, request that each of you please use his discrimination in listening to what we have to say. We are not authorities over you, nor should any be, for you are the keepers of your temple. You are those who discriminate between that which is for you and that which is not. If anything that we say has resonance, please follow the path of that resonance as long as it seems helpful to you to do so. If our thoughts do not resonate to you, please lay them aside without a second thought and move on. Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research. 

What do you say to people who are considering a divorce, ending a commitment? Q'uo I am Q'uo. I come in the love and the light of the one infinite Creator, and because we speak through this instrument, we say to this group alone, we do come in the name of Christ, for it is not your Christ only, but Christ, a love, the love, the love of the Creator. How could we not come in that holy name, for indeed we too hallow love as we would hallow our mother and our father, for love is mother and father of all of us. We greet each of you and we thank you for the privilege of being able to speak with this group. It is a pleasure to be using this instrument. We note the roughened condition of the instrument's throat and will attempt to be less forceful than is our usual habit. My children, we offer our answers in love and in hopes of being of service, and yet because your question is about divorce, as you call this custom, our points of view diverge dramatically, and in sharing with you our point of view, we so far wish not to influence any unduly that we ask most especially for each seeker's careful discrimination in using any part of what we say, for we would not wish you to act as you think you ought, but as you feel. It is your discrimination and your choice at all times, and the greatest teaching, the most ideal rule, the most exalted creed is as nothing if it is not the echo of your heart and your mind and your will. It is indeed doing damage to yourself to take concrete and irreversible steps which are not of your own choosing. It is less unfortunate if the choice is temporary, and yet we would wish not to be of disservice at all. Therefore, please take those things we say and weigh them carefully. Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research. 

Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. The energies of Q'uo await to guide us. They repeatedly tell us in their channelings that they are available to us in meditation. Meditating with Q'uo is quite unique because they are mad up of 4th, 5th and 6th density social memory complexes. With your permission they are ready to aid you . I have have connecting the energies of Q'uo on a regular basis and it is an amazing expeirence. These energies, transcendent and ancient, speak not in words but in the language of the soul. They beckon us to bring them into our meditations, offering their presence as a gift of profound transformation. Imagine the potential when we allow these energies to enter our practice. They are the silent whisperers in the chaos of our minds, the gentle healers of our deepest wounds, and the enhancers of our meditative states. In their presence, our minds find the rare gift of silence, a sanctuary from the relentless noise of everyday life. This silence is not just the absence of sound; it's a deep, resonating peace, a canvas upon which insights and revelations can paint their colors. Q'uo's energies also bring healing, mending the fragmented pieces of our inner selves, nurturing our spirits, and aligning us with a higher state of well-being. They remind us that healing is not always about curing; it's often about understanding, accepting, and harmonizing. Furthermore, these energies enhance our meditative experiences, elevating them from mere exercises of the mind to profound spiritual encounters. They guide us to explore realms beyond our ordinary perception, revealing truths that lie hidden in plain sight, truths about ourselves and the universe we inhabit. This meditation is an invitation to embark on a journey with Q'uo – a journey of love, wisdom, and unity. It's an opportunity to explore the depths of our own consciousness, to connect with something greater than ourselves, and to emerge transformed, empowered, and enlightened. With open hearts and minds receive the gifts that the energies of Q'uo have to offer. Let us become conduits of the profound love, wisdom, and unity that these energies represent.

And we greet each of you in love and in light of the One Infinite Creator; who is everywhere at all times, speaking  through one type of instrument on the planet and another, that may or may not be aware that they have the Creator within them. We are here this afternoon to lend our vibrations of seeking the One Creator to you, as we know you also seek this same Creator. And it is our honor to be here with you. We would remind you that we are but seekers of truth, as are you, who have moved somewhat further along on our journey of seeking than have you at this time. And we would ask a favor: that you see us not as infallible sources of information, but as those who offer their opinions that may be worthwhile to you. Take those thoughts and words that we offer and use them as you will, discarding any that have no value to you at this time. This allows us to speak more freely, so that we do not provide any stumbling blocks to you on your spiritual path of seeking. Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research. 

Decemberr 5 2023 Topics: Relationship of instrument's knowledge to channeled information; generalizing the pathways of channeling; the pathways in the mind to channeling; the origins of the L/L Research channeling lineage; the impact of decades of internalized Confederation philosophy on present-day channeling; a smidge about the trance state; reduction of the conscious mind in channeling; the inequity within time/space; the evolving appearance of UFOs; the import and potential use of the experience of the UFO; the recent resurgence in the interest of UFOs ; the relationship of the sub-sub-Logos to the sub-Logos; instrument's hearing of the question in advance vs. in the moment of channeling. Q'uo We are Q'uo and we greet this circle and the love and in the light of the One Infinite Creator. We wish to express our appreciation for the honor of being called to join you in this circle of seeking. We find within this particular circle a very inviting sense of lightness, a quality of seeking that includes the light view of life and the approach to the catalyst of the difficult experiences within your illusion that incorporates the humor that we find to be absolutely necessary on the path of the seeker who wishes to serve others. Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research. 

The Akashic Field is often conceptualized as a cosmic database where every event, thought, emotion, and intention is recorded. Jim Mccarty the scribe for the Ra material explains that the new earth happens when the akashic awakens as a living being. Now is the time that the Akashic is awakening. Multiple stories and observations are now showing that this field is awakenng with numerous personal experiences. Here I will explore what the Akashic is, how to tune into it and the implications of this new phenomenon. 

Group Question: Ra says of compassion that it is the salvation of third density. They also say that seeing love in the moment is the as the goal and lesson of third density. It is by learning to love that we graduate.Yet, we see very loving people adopt what seem to be very confused positions about societal questions of consequence for the well-being of our population and the planet itself, taking up positions that contribute to an increasing and perhaps perilous fragmentation.We're wondering if you can speak to the role of discernment. What is discernment? Of what value is discernment in a density where there is no “understanding”? And how may we better exercise discernment?Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research.

Traveling the spiritual path, it seems that many get burned out after a while, and we would like to know what it is that burns out—our inspiration, our desire, our will, what is it, and what is the best thing to do to get our inspiration again? What is the wisdom of resting along the path? Q'UOWe are those of the principle known to you as Q'uo. We greet you in the love and in the infinite light of the one infinite Creator. We thank you for calling us to your group this beautiful day. Your springtime has cycled around again, that time of expanding light, and even in the purely physical illusion your colors bloom and blossom rejoicing in the increase of light. There is the palpable lifting of vibrations among your peoples as the light increases in its daily amount each of your days. The self-aware life of your planet actually increases in its fidelity to the original Thought. As light increases so does remembrance of love increase. This is as a blossoming on the metaphysical plane, so springtime redounds very much to the finer densities and is not at all simply a surface phenomenon. Indeed, each individual, each kind of thing, has its seasons and its cycles of being and for the spiritual seeker such cycles are to be expected... Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research.

And we are honored to be called to your group today to speak in some fashion of this basic reality. We would ask that you take what we have to say with, shall we say, a grain of salt; using your own discrimination to determine whether what we have to offer is worthwhile to you in your own spiritual path. If it is not, leave whatever is not valuable aside, so that we do not present any stumbling block to you, if you will do this, then we can speak more freely knowing that you have your own discernment by which to gauge those thoughts and words that we share with you today. At this time, we would ask if there is a query with which we may begin?  Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research. 

Topics: How to align with the full moon; accepting the self in serving others; waking up early; black holes; plant substances for spiritual evolution; dealing with negative energy in the news; signs from guides; the doubling effect. I am Q'uo and am with this instrument at this time. It is our honor to greet each of you in the love and the light of the One Infinite Creator of who we are all a part. And we would this afternoon ask that you take the words that we speak through each instrument with what you might call a grain of salt so that those words which ring in harmony with your own feelings about your own nature, your spiritual journey and why you're here on earth at this time, may be utilized as you will. Leaving behind those that do not ring of truth. This is a favor which we perpetually ask. Q'uo is a gathering of high density beings who are channeled by ll research. For more on Q'uo check out https://www.llresearch.org Posted with approval of ll research.
