Our First Post for the Public

8/1/11 Good Morning, Dearest Committee! I’d like to go in a new direction today. Common Thread is beginning a new blog for local people who channel or have pithy comments to share. We have been communicating for so many years now, but it has almost exclusively been for my own personal growth. You have been wonderfully supportive when I’ve needed it most as well as chiding when I needed that most – always with Love and just the right words. So …… Is this transferable to other people to share? Do you have anything that you would like me to put in the blog for you? Should we do this regularly?

Good Morning, Dearest Stephen. What a wonderful new step you are taking. By all means, we would love to share our perspective with your friends and fellow CT people, and others, of course, who may be drawn to the energy of our words and presence. We have, in fact, added “specialists” to assist in the broader focus that you are now requesting. This, then, leads us to the first comment we wish to share: We, as you, are One! A trite phrase that is used often, but occasionally has a point. For each entity is complete in itself, but in combination with others and the “All” becomes so much more than the sum of the parts. So you have a committee that has been advising you – Stephen – for answers to your questions and subtle guidance when appropriate. But, bluntly, we don’t know everything. So like you, we call in experts. Like your requests for help in creating reports or marketing material, there are those who are better focused in that area. Then they are drawn to you. We do the same, drawing to us those who find the phrasing and topics that are most appropriate at the time for those receiving. Likewise, each of you can draw help to you for every single aspect of your life. If this were the only opportunity we would have to speak with you it would be to say that you do not request our assistance nearly enough. NOT NEARLY ENOUGH! We so wish to help, for giving to others is the greatest gift to receive and the closest way possible to approach Creator. But assistance cannot and must not be assumed. We cannot help you even scratch an itch by an assumption you would want it scratched – for you may not want it scratched. That may sound irrational to some, but all actions and situations are chosen. The interpretations of another entity’s creation is never, never, never considered. Your request for assistance, however, is a creation with which we are permitted to participate, and do so with such Love and enthusiasm that if you knew, you would remember to ask more often. We will say now that we have often called our Dearest Stephen “Dumb Ass” for his forgetfulness in requesting our help. Enough times now, that he is beginning to remember us sooner in times of angst. Not as often as he should, but remember, he is a dumb ass.



A closing point we would like to make is a reminder for each reader to remember that all information in channel lings come through a filter, which is the being at the keyboard or with the pen and paper. So the words and even topics take the flavor of that person. You will here Stevie in us, because he speaks to you for us. In our relationship and practice we know his thoughts and style well, so we speak that way so we don’t need to worry about his translating too far off. As an example, he understands the meaning and more importantly the humor of “dumb ass”, so we use it. “Spiritually challenged” might be our thought, but we admit he has more fun with the other. And fun leads to joy which leads to Love which leads to Creator. Bless you, each of you, today and all days.

Love, Love, Always Love

Q, et. al.

8/1/11 Ok, Gang, that was tough and it felt like a lot of me more than my usual writing what you say. It felt like I was pausing and picking words I liked. That’s not how we’ve done it. So is the last page all bull shit? What is happening?

Cool, Stevie-boy. We’re on track ok and you can publish what was written this morning. Yes, it felt different and definitely awkward but no concepts were compromised. Interestingly, the very filter we discussed kicked in. You wanted this to be good and pithy since you have some reputation to protect. So add a little angst and the words didn’t flow like they do right now. So relax a bit, Bucko. This is confidence in yourself – and very much confidence in us. So let both you and us be you and us. It will flow and if it doesn’t ring for a single soul out there, so what? For it will ring for you and we can bet you that you’ll get better reception than you think. Simply the process of this is educational and think of the wonderful success if just one more person shuts off the TV and sits down in silence with a pen or at a keyboard. They may do a dip-shit job like you did in the beginning, but you got better – a lot better. They can, too. So chill. I love you so! Suzie

My Scribing regarding Spiritual Rant

In my last post (see just below) I mentioned a web site and a well written open letter to the Galactic Federation and my reactions to it. Well, I do channel, but always for my own growth and clarification.  I have not done it for others, as a general rule. My method is to scribe, meaning I meditate and protect to get a clear communication.  Then I write what I think and then scribe what comes to me. You may think it is all my overactive imagination; that's fine. As I often say, your opinion of me is none of my business.  Nonetheless, here is my scribing shortly after the open letter was published.

Me: Good Morning Dearest Committee. I have a topic today which I hope (and suspect) you have discussed among yourselves. An open letter was written to the Galactic Federation requesting intervention in Gaia issues with Illuminati activity. It was a strongly worded, heart-felt letter which I completely understand. My first thought is to support this letter in every way I can. To bring more and more people to the energy of disclosure and their assistance. We feel the timetable is slower than expected and desired, so I am doubly frustrated by the delays. On the other hand, I know their perspective is broader than mine. Can you share your thoughts with me?

Good Morning, Dearest Stephen. Please believe that we fully understand your emotions as well as the rational reasons you would request an immediate intervention from the Galactic Council. We do hesitate, however, to ask support of any entity or group who is actively doing what they can within their perception of their self-approval of their self actions. Of course, their intent is certainly to support you and Gaia as much as they are able to do. Within the Universe and the governing Principles (and effect of those Principles) they must operate within their own integrity for their actions. Having already agreed to assist as they can, they most certainly are assisting, as their intent, to the degree that they have selected within the parameters they have set. Or, bluntly in your style: They said they would help and they are to the best that they can/choose/ethically complete within their self awareness. So a request to change their actions, which could be considered to be saying “not good enough” or “change your priorities” is a step we would recommend not to take. The arguments presented for a shift in policy are well presented and we are confident their impact is being considered. The energy of the request is conflicted, however. Clearly, Love of earth and its humans is strong, but elements of fighting and deposition of others, even if judged evil, can be counter-productive, as well as anything perceived as a demand. A complicating factor is your invention and concept of time, which, of course, does not exist in reality. So your request is one of time or timing which really is a superfluous issue. We are certain you can build an argument for a timing consideration, but please let us say that there are elements involved that are far beyond your 3rd density understanding. Factors surrounding the “time”question, as well as timing. All these the GF do understand and weigh within their expansive understanding, experience, and wisdom.

Please consider to rework (reword) your thoughts to consider only energy that is Loving with humility and with respect. Of course, even this advice is moot, because your attention, focus, and purpose are already understood by all who focus to your intent or who you call. Additionally, the Great Loving Source of the GC understand the perspective from which you create your energy. They know your source and they know your limitations in understanding Universal Laws. A metaphor is a parent hearing the lament of a child who considers himself being treated unfairly. That does not say the concern is invalid because it is from a child. Rather the concern is weighed along with many, many other factors beyond the child’s understanding. A pretty good metaphor, we think.

So calm, Dearest, and do know that all is unfolding with Love for the betterment of all of Gaia and its inhabitants and for all of the Universe. You certainly will not be disappointed. This we are most certain.

Love, Love, always Love,
Q, Archangels, et.al.

Thank you for reading. Consider it as you wish. You are greatly Loved, regardless.

A Good Rant in the Spiritual Community

There is a web site that I log into quite regularly called http://www.galacticchannelings.com/.  This web site is a collection of channelings from other sites, making it easier to review.  Five regular channelers are
1) Matthew, who I have followed for quite a few years.  He is generally specific on what is happening in the world and I like his style a lot.
2) Blossom Goodchild, who came to prominence by announcing a Star People disclosure back on 10/15/09 (I think that was the date).  Well, they didn't show, obviously, and she took a lot of heat from that.  Nonetheless, she channels the Federation of Light regularly and I like the energy and information she passes along.
3) Mike Quinsey who channels SaLuSa from the Galactic Federation (I think it is the same outfit as Blossoms, but not sure).  SaLuSa is very good, 3 times a week.  I consider him a cheerleader to keep us focused and hopeful for ascension.
4) Sheldon Nidle channeling someone also from the Star People.  He is a little more direct.
5) Kris-won channeling Commander Sohin from the Galactic Federation - a soldier who is pretty direct about the struggle against the "dark cabal".

There are other posts occasionally, and one on March 15th really drew me in:  http://www.galacticchannelings.com/english/open-letter.html.  This was an open letter to the Galactic Federation in essence saying please make your presence known NOW.  We are frustrated here on earth.  The dark has held us hostage for too long. We have lost a lot of time we could have spent building our ascension skills so more people could advance together when Gaia makes her big move.  Then, with the earthquake in Japan and the horrendous  nuclear issue, all caused by HAARP, we need them now to prevent even more destruction. It was a great letter and I found myself jumping up and down in agreement.  Yes, yes, yes, let's get on with it!!!

But I also had something gnawing on me in my heart about my attitude, which I knew was a calling to do my own scribing for my personal take on the issue.  It was very interesting. I'll share it in my next post.
But always with Love and excitement for our new world,
The Old Monk

Oneness

Within the spiritual community there is a great deal of discussion about Oneness.  My most favorite book is titled that. I notice that everyone I hear or read, human or channeled, has the same description with very little variation. The only explanation is that we are all connected together in Oneness. blah, blah, blah. Nice words and everyone nicely nod their heads in agreement. Then there is the analogy of the drop of water in the ocean. An individual is that drop, that part of the ocean, a part of all in the oneness.


That's all nice. But something about it always bugged me. I felt it was simplistic and everyone says the same thing in explanation, which still feels incomplete. Of course, one factor is that some people can easily get the idea that they will lose their identity of self and, furthermore, that is a good thing to do so. I don't think people want to go there. I certainly don't. I suppose when you get very close to Creator, that urge for merging into the ultimate Oneness might be desirable and preferable, but we are so far from that concept it isn't worth considering, let alone choosing.

I've mentioned this dilemma often in groups, but I seem to be alone in my quandary. Most say nothing, but those that do, want me to give up my fight and surrender to the concept. I have it backward they say; we are all connected and my problem isn't oneness, it is the separation I feel.

I think they confuse my passion for a question to be a personal angst. My issue is not in the concept and the connection with all, it is the inadequacy of our language and it appears no one wishes to make the concept better. In my gut I feel the explanation is incomplete!!!

EUREKA! I found it!! In meditation early this morning a simple little change fixes everything. The metaphor of the drop in the ocean is incomplete. We are not simply a drop in the ocean, just like every other drop and part of the whole in Oneness. Oh, we are, indeed that, but so much more. Don't look at ourselves as part of the whole, but rather the whole is within us! All of the strength and power and wisdom of the whole ocean is, indeed, within our drop. We are that powerful. We are God. We are Creator. All of that strength is indeed within each one of us.
Our society has minimized each of our lives so that we consider ourselves to be insignificant - nothing more than a drop of water in the ocean. So the spiritual effort is to say "We are not alone. We are all connected together in Oneness. Isn't that nice, our sense of separation is wrong, for we, and all of nature, are connected.". That has made my gut say it is incomplete. While that says each person is not shit, I will say NO. FAR FROM IT. YOU ARE GOD. YOU ARE SO POWERFUL YOU CAN CREATE A UNIVERSE. YOU CREAT EVERYTHING YOU WANT TO EXPERIENCE, REGARDLESS OF WHAT IT MIGHT BE IN THE ENTIRE MULTIVERSE. THAT IS AMAZING. STAND UP AND RECOGNIZE HOW POWERFUL YOU ARE. YOU CREATE. YOU CREATE ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING YOU MIGHT DESIRE.

Whew. So Oneness isn't wrong. But from where we are in our 3rd density existence it points us in the right direction but doesn't go far enough. Oh, I'm sure many will say that they know all of this, but my experience of the Oneness discussions does not reveal the fantastic, most important elements of the concept. Don't just think that we are part of o whole, but that the whole is in us. A small rearrangement in words, but a fantastic rearrangement in thinking. Oneness! We are Oneness! All together. We are God. We are Creator. We are One.
And I Love You.
