During a channeling, is Creator answering the originator of the question, or strictly the channeler who is asking it on their behalf during the session?

In a sense, it is the original questioner whose intentions are picked up by the channeler and carried through the channeling process in the act of vocalizing or stating the question within the channeler’s mind, however the question might be posed in doing the actual work. But what matters is what the channeler is thinking of and having held within their own intention as the actual voice speaking and reaching to the divine realm for assistance. So if the intention is muddy because the intention of the original questioner is unclear, there will be a miscue on some level, to some degree, and perhaps dramatically, such that the intention of the channeler is all that survives, and this can result in an entirely different answer to the question based on the misunderstanding of the original intent. This is not a conscious, willful act so much as the consequence of the energies involved. This is all an exchange of information so this must be kept in mind to what degree the information is fully understood by those parties involved and the intentions shared so everything is on the table before the channeling commences—that is the best way to ensure that the end result desired will come about.
