Mixed Contact
Preface: Most of the following describes the pitfalls of a type of channeling during which the instrument is conscious. The contact with Ra, by contrast, was a channeling conducted with an instrument in an unconscious state. Both types of contact are susceptible to being detuned, as described below. It is unclear, however, whether the Ra contact could have become “mixed,” as can happen during conscious channeling, or whether a narrow-band contact is an all-or-nothing proposition where a loss of tuning equals a loss of contact altogether.
Either way, the Ra contact required an even higher level of tuning because it was a narrow-band transmission, and perhaps also because the instrument, being unconscious, couldn’t challenge the contact in the way a conscious instrument can. This tuning was achieved through various means, including: the dedication, focus, and harmony of the group, the purity of the questions asked, and, critically, the purity and totality of the instrument’s dedication to service. Additionally, Ra suggested the use of certain white magical procedures (which would not be used in normal conscious channeling), to safeguard against negative intrusion and loss of the contact. To explore more, see the next entry, “Narrow Band.”
Mixed Contact: The more purely that a positively oriented individual and/or group performs the service of vocal channeling, the more metaphysical power they generate, the more light they shine. This power has the capacity of empowering or energizing people who may be available for harvest in the positive sense. Thus do positively oriented channels become high-priority targets for Orion sources who become aware of that power.
Attracted to the intensity of the positive light, those of the negative polarity will offer the conscious channel negatively oriented information. If the conscious channel is properly tuned and successfully challenges all contacts,[82] then the channel will effectively reject the service of the negative entities. However, if the instrument is confused in their orientation, un-tuned, and/or does not challenge contacts, then they open themselves to receiving mixed contact, meaning a contact of mixed polarity whereby the untuned channel receives both positive and negative communications.
Mixed contact is made possible because negatively polarized entities transmit on the same frequency of light as those of the positive polarity. In other words, the positive and negative contacts may “feel” the same to the conscious instrument.
  • Questioner: Would a fifth-density entity of the Confederation who was positively polarized transmit on the same frequency as our negatively polarized fifth-density companion?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct and is the reason that the questioning of all contacts is welcomed by the Confederation of Planets in the Service of the Infinite Creator. – 89.6
The negative polarity can mimic the positive, using the same name as the positive source and giving their information a positive-sounding veneer which is embedded with disguised negative truth. And as the positive polarity sees love in all things, and as the negative polarity is clever, the untuned channel may unwittingly accept service-to-self philosophy.
If the untuned instrument is, at base, oriented towards service to others, the conscious channel will (unknowingly) alter the negative message to be more acceptable to the positive polarity while speaking of doom and warning of difficulties ahead. In other words, fear will bleed into the message—as will those energies which accompany fear, such as the seeking of security, defense, control, and preservation. The focus will be removed from seeking and serving others in the positive sense of radiation of love and light, acceptance, and forgiveness.
Tuning may also be lost through the desire to receive proof or offer it to others via some kind of demonstration of ability (such as accurate prediction of future events), or due to an emphasis placed upon the request for specific information, or the neglect of mental or ritual preparation, including simply not being mindful to tune the self before receiving contact.
Loss of tuning could be analogized to losing the tuning on the radio: as the dial is turned from its ideal setting, so does the receiver open itself to other frequencies of communication. Though the analogy has its limitations—Ra says that negative beings use the same light as positive.
One potential consequence for the positive channel receiving mixed contact is the loss of credibility. This may happen as predictions are made which do not come to pass, or false information is given, or the personality of the instrument becomes elevated and glorified.
Ra indicates that each of our orthodox religious systems has become somewhat mixed in orientation (through impression of negative philosophy coupled, presumably, with the orientation of its practitioners) but nevertheless offers a pure path to the One Creator which is seen by the pure seeker.
Ra: We can only ask each group to consider the relative effect of philosophy and your so-called specific information. It is not the specificity of the information which attracts negative influences. It is the importance placed upon it.
This is why we iterate quite often, when asked for specific information, that it pales to insignificance, just as the grass withers and dies while the love and the light of the One Infinite Creator redounds to the very infinite realms of creation forever and ever, creating and creating itself in perpetuity.
Why then be concerned with the grass that blooms, withers, and dies in its season only to grow once again due to the infinite love and light of the One Creator? This is the message we bring. Each entity is only superficially that which blooms and dies. In the deeper sense there is no end to beingness. – 26.36
