One of the things I appreciate about L/L Research’s legacy is their insistence on making the full transcripts of all their channeled messages available to the public. A lot of channeled work is not released this way; for instance, you can go to the Cayce library and get the raw messages, but the public usually consumes them through books folks write about him. The author can explore a topic across messages but the essence of a single message is often lost. The scientific, archivist bent that Carla and Don brought to their project makes the research I do much easier, and when they write books that draw upon the messages, you can check their work. The Solar Cross Foundation’s 1979 book Star Wards suffers from this need to force the messages into human sense without any ability to double check how these excerpts are used. However, it makes this blog somewhat easier to write since the excerpting has been done for me.

Here you see another example of the affective experience of contact with Confederation social memory complexes: the recognition of the present incommensurability between our space siblings and us. It always seems to be an occasion for regret on their part, because they seem to find this veiled traffic with humanity as unsatisfying as we do. We want proof of their existence; on the other hand, they want proof of our care, our overcoming the indifference of modern materialistic, capitalist life. It’s obvious we’re not ready for contact and may not be in our lifetimes, but I wonder just how ontologically estranged we are from the reality they perceive.

I would share with all of you a certain feeling that has dwelled within my being and which is beyond that which you call time. It is, as you would describe it, an affection that contains within it a great love for each of you who participate in the sharing of our thoughts.

We of the Confederation have for a great period of time, longed for open contact with people of your planet. Ever in our thoughts is the great happiness that each of us would share if that opportunity presented itself and we could stand face to face, look into one another’s eyes and clasp hands in your method of greeting. Then would we know, both MAN and human, minutely, the depth and character that each of us represent and experience the feeling of joy in the sharing of this by the contact of our minds.

Often, in my moments of solitude, I have dwelt upon what such a meeting would be like and on the subtleties that would pass between our respective beings. I have reflected, as well, on the joy of such an event.

There is within the heart and the essence of our being a love that people on your world have never known – a depth of feeling that they have not experienced. The present state of general awareness on your world is such that a meeting of this nature would prove disastrous – a disaster caused by the reactions of those of your people to that which they could be, but have not yet become. They would feel a terrible realization in the innermost core of their being, a dissatisfaction, a repugnance of that which they have been. It would be a reaction to the realization and reality brought suddenly into their minds: an awareness of their present condition. At present, this would constitute a disaster. All of the love that we could extend on every level of awareness could not alter this vast unawareness of your people.

And so we have had to endure with great patience the separation of our presence from the earth. The welcome that is ever in our hearts and beings is one which will have to remain until a later period, a period when your planet has gained a new insight into the realities of itself and experienced the new awareness being brought forth.

Then, as we have stated previously, it shall happen. It shall be a joyous moment when we step forth on your planet, a moment we have long awaited. I bring these thoughts into your realization in order to stress the dangers present in a premature meeting. Only on rare occasions can we meet with those who can be brought into a state of rapport and awareness on sudden notice.

I believe you can appreciate the delicate and unique situation that such a mass meeting between us would produce. Contrary to the great joy that should be present, the meeting would prove to be most difficult. It is only as your awareness, not only individually but collectively, is raised to a new level that such can be accomplished on a broad planetary scale. In providing you these thoughts, we humbly request that you appreciate the sadness this delay and condition brings to our beings.
