My extra understandings of the Law of One.

[Firewalker]

I've been looking around at this forum recently and the odd comment something like 'contribute to this if you want' caught my eye. I've been reading the Law of One on and off since I discovered it, one and a half to two years ago. I've been tossing and turning and wanted to express some of my own understandings that seem to follow on slightly from the Law of One. Of course their correctness I do not know.

I'd like to mention it to anyone who hasn't done it of David's comments on masturbation on the old forum. Stop if you're doing it. You lose energy which you need for life. Not only that but root chakra energy. The Law of one states that root chakra is the first one to be cleared of blockages. It says about mulktah earth energy 'An understanding of this energy is fundamental.' It is also close to the south pole which draws in new experience. So by giving away that energy, does a person block off their experience in some way?

Firstly. I've thought in the past of the love/ light and light/ love understandings. It is said that there are two types of people. Thinkers and Touchers, perhaps that's too crude a metaphor. My understanding of this is that, when light= wisdom, the light/ love is when knowledge opens the pathway up to love. Therefore I think of chakra's and the like and move the 'love' shortly after. That's one type of person, "Thinkers." The other is Love/ light. People who go round 'feeling' everything and move the energy of wisdom as they reach out. Not natural observers but 'do- ers' who have to experience things or proverbially 'get their hands dirty' before they try using the light for practical purposes.

To carry on from that, and in accord with another source, the human design chart. A love/ light person probably functions more completely out of the sacral chakra and the light/ love out of the throat chakra. Like any opposites, someone could be nearly equal on both, similar to how someone could have well balanced masculine and femine. A love/ light person will have feelings over rational, a light/ love person wisdom over feelings, and it isn't always obvious at first, since both deal in the love and light and it depends where you catch them.

Patient/ Impatient. Worthiness/ Unworthiness. Honor/ Duty. One thing I think about these energies is that they are never far apart. A person who spends a lot of time being patient will be impatient at another time because of pent up energy. A person who sees themselves as unworthy may have a small segment of there life where they believe themselves better than others (a classic example, spiritual elite.) These things are the same in essence, when a person balances them they can take the best, being very patient if needed but impatient exactly in accord with life and it's rythms?

One of the dangers of life and one not usually opened up is the sociopath. Known easily from criminal films although are actually quite well integrated into our society. 1/20 (approximately) person is a sociopath and are well known normal seeming people with great charm . Sociopaths without violent tendencies will tend to just leach off people. Some sociopaths will confess that their greatest desire is to be pitied. What is the polar opposite of the sociopath?

Does anybody have any close understandings of the Law of One or any comments?

Thank you for sharing, your connections got my mind moving.

As we offer our love/light or love/wisdom, we are at a point, I believe, that we are offering up our true self for the highest good. "not my will, but thy will", from our love of self, our pure love that each of us holds. The hard part of using our real self, our light, is breaking down all the walls we put up through the pains and experiences of life., When we know our selfs completely and truly, loving ourself, trusting ourselfs 100% without doubt or fear, we can light up the world around us. As you mention, the root chakra, holds our security, protection, centered area.

One thing I like to remind myself, I knew no fear or doubts was present when I enter this life, only through my experiences did this grow.... bringing up karma or life issues that help us develop ourselfs in this life.

I do see the connections and balance necessary between all chakras, but the Sacral has our soul encased (see below) and our thoat chakra is our door to speaking our wisdomn and sharing our pure love.

Throat chakra, communication both physcial & psychic. In a world where speaking out is a risk, most people's thoat centers are in need of healing. Emotions are expressed at this level and creativity is located here.

Heart, Emotions come from the heart, as does universal love and love for others.

Solar Plexus: it is the seat of our personal power. How we stand up for ourselves and demo courage .. balances of power.

Sacral, first impressions an old emotional picutres are stored in this center.

Root, birth and rebirth. it is the survival center, the ability to draw abundance from the planet.

The Lower and Upper Gates, were I read and think the heart is the bridge of the lower and upper chakras.

E.C. Reading 136-33 (11)
For as we entities in the physical plane prepare that at-oneness, it is as He gave: "Even as I be lifted up will draw all men unto me," or has been given, when speaking to those that would seek His face, "Say not to thyself who shall descend into the depths to bring Him up, or who shall fly into the heavens to bring Him down, for the spirit of peace, truth, and love, is WITHIN THINE OWN HEART." As the spirit of self gives that attunement that may be at a oneness with those spirits in that sphere, they may know, they may understand, they may gather, that TRUTH that MAKES one free.

Readings, [email for book and author] The Lower and Upper Gates

Reading 281-13 describes more of what occurs. “The spirit and the soul is within its encasement, or its temple within the body of the individual - see? With the arousing..., it rises along that which is known as the Appian Way, or the pineal center, to the base of the brain, that it may be disseminated to those centers that give activity to the whole of the mental and physical being. It rises then to the hidden eye in the center of the brain system, or is felt in the forefront of the head, or in the place just above the real face - or bridge of nose, see?”

As we have seen, the soul is encased in the second chakra of the body, the lyden center. From this chakra it is drawn upwards by the magnetism that results from stimulating the pineal center. It rises to the base of the brain and into the pineal center, the crown chakra. In ancient Egyptian mysticism, the lyden center is represented by the lower gate and pharaoh of the lower Nile, while the pineal center is the upper gate and pharaoh of the upper Nile. In The Book of the Master of the Hidden Places, there are ancient Egyptian pictures of a young man named “Ani” encouraging his soul to pass through the lower gate, and later Ani’s soul is seen at the threshold of the upper gate, ready to make that wonderful passage into the higher consciousness. The caption under these pictures reads, “Hail ye gods who make souls to enter into their spiritual bodies. Grant ye that the soul of the reunited Ani, triumphant, may come forth before the gods, and that his soul may have peace in the Hidden Place.”

Thanks again for the post., it brings to mind much thought.

As far as the masturbation thing, I have never read David's thoughts on this, if anybody has a link to this information Id love to read it. I just think one should balance all thoughts with their anti-thesis as you have done for many things such as patience/ impatience, etc. In most cases there is a middle path and extremes should be avoided as will often cause further imbalance. I feel this should be considered for one who has chosen to abstain from masturbation, (unless of course this person is involved in physical sexual energy transfers with another self, in which case I agree the masturbation is not necessary.)

However for a celibate individual who has not yet mastered the ability to harness red ray sexual energy up to the higher chakras there are instances when the masturbation I feel can be advisable.

An analogy I could use would be that 'ideally' none of us would probably need to eat meat, or much chemical food at all, and could harness our energy directly from the sun. Unfortunately to recommend this action to many in the world's current state, may result in a great number of people dying. If you noticed even Ra recommended Carla eat a certain amount of meat in her diet as she was regaining her physical strength. There are instances when individuals need to find balance in their current distortion to result in further healing. I feel that deprivation is not an act of healing but, this doesnt necessarily change the ultimate goal of zero masturbation, only that work must be done to reach a desired state of being. This is subtle work, and as it is spoken by Ra all things are acceptable for the entity to experience within the appropriate time/ space. So to simply advise all people to stop masturbating, is not necessarily good advice for all IMO.

[Firewalker]

The information was in his book the Reincarnation of Edgar Cayce and in the old forum. Around the time ,and around the fact David had a reading he put up on the internet about him practicing celibracy. I will search for that probably tommorrow.

Edit: Unfortunately it would take forever to search for that since the entry was probably somewhere between Late 2004 - Early 2006, and isn't on David's Blog anymore.

You make very good points, not necessarily ones I agree with. I've noticed a strong defense mechanism around masturbation.

Red ray energy to other chakra's? It seems to just be life energy and you don't need it channeled to higher chakra's until you've balanced the one it's going to. Hence the order. Red ray first then others.

Namaste,

You also make a lot of good points many of which I do agree with. The thing with me is I can often take either side in a debate on such things. The masturbation being the secondary issue I was taking up, the primary one being your instruction for people to stop as a blanket statement. I was simply pointing out this could be good advice for some, maybe not so much for others. However seeing this is a message board for people interested in David Wilcock, chances are for most here it is appropriate.

Some very good points indeed, Charles. I have never quite understood why this was such a taboo subject. I mean it doesn't take a genius to see that repression does not work. Just one look at the catholic priesthood alone would give you tons of evidence of that. And consider also; that's just what we know about. I would bet there's at least ten to twenty (or more) that we are unaware of for every one we know about.

It's not that hard to learn to direct and/or transmute the sexual energy, as I have touched on in previous posts. That makes it very valuable indeed, and no more or less harmful than any other type of energy. It occurs to me that anyone that goes around telling people not to masturbate, very likely has quite a few unresolved issues about the subject.

If you continually repress energy, (sexual or otherwise) it is akin to building a bomb, with every repression adding more dynamite to the bomb. Emotions and feelings are one of the most powerful forms of energy available to us, and repressing them is simply not healthy. Think about it; every great act ever achieved by mankind was backed and fueled by the powerful emotion of desire.

Of course it is up to the individual to determine how to deal with sexual energy, but simply stating "Masturbation is a sin!" is not only unhelpful but extremely archaic. If you choose celibacy I can assure you that it will not benefit you if you do not have a way of handling sexual energy. If you are unsure how to handle the energy, masturbation is far better than repression imho.

[Understanding]

There is so much information flying around I think a lot of us are confused. and when something resonate we accept some of this stuff being channeled blindly. One poster said to be aware of words that are self aware which was a very great point. I am soaking in as much knowledge as I can. I recently read off another website about charkas and asecension means duality.....it was off of [name] wesbite I guess we have to use tough discernment

We're talking about red ray energy which is also responsible for other things such as our excretory system, connection with the earth, relation to stress. The type of sexual energy you are describing here is a blockage. Ra said in the Law of One that sexual blockages contribute to 'increased appetite and frustration'.

And it took me close to a year to stop.

I believe it was someone who said in one of the last posts that anyone who says 'stop it' about masturbation, referring to me, probably has issues around earth energy. Well, for a time there has been associated 'disharmony' in my life and this is what I've learnt, an intense learning of earth energy.

Anyway, it wasn't the main point of the post which was more philosophical, but I don't really mind discussing this.

And most blanket statements such as 'stop cocaine', tobacco or cannabis, are probably not strictly inaccurate.

David relayed specifically that HE had had to stop (possibly more diplomatically?) and that the energy you send to the person through masturbation violate their free will.

[eyez4096]

I felt strangely compelled to chime in as I've thought about the taboo issue as well (having chosen not to stop, by the way -- I'm saving that for another time as I am many issues, trying to tune them with the flow of life). I think, by my reading of the LoO, the sexual blockages primarily refer to things which stifle your ability or choice to share energy with another. Masturbation can cause this, though I'm not convinced it is an only cause nor necessarily correlated.

As for what's actually happening with it, I have suspected for some time that the energy may be sent to the object/archetype of one's focus. Thus I would expect women in pornography to experience an unusually large influx of highly distorted energy which their actions have chosen. In this case I think there is no abridgement of free will. In other cases, there is the potential for free will infringement, however due to the subtlety of these distance/time separated potential transfers, I suspect the receiver has a great deal of guard against them -- the ability to ignore them and therefor be relatively unaffected. I don't think free will is a major issue here (an issue, yes, but one of the 0(x) terms of our archetypal power series unless the practicer is consciously trying to send the enregy)...

I suspect that having the energy present but blocked is just as detrimental as having the energy drained and, perhaps in the process, the conduit being partially opened. Many a time, I will admit, (as I have frequent issues with the lower chakras), it has been difficult to unblock the red ray until after I released some of the energy via our topic, after which it was easier to unblock the channel and allow new energy through while less impeded. The analogy which is relevent is of the sand Dam: A blocked sand dam, upon reaching a certain point, may fail catastrophically, releasing more water/energy into the downstream than can be dealt with, destroying the dam and causing further issues. Removing some of the energy (water) from the system first, then carefully opening the blocked dam, may avoid the potential dangers described previously.

As such, in a well balanced and unblocked individual, masturbation would be unnecessary and would reduce their energy reserves. In the same person, the activity may be able to be completed without causing any blockage -- simply a reduction in available energy. As for the blocked individual, there are two cases: blockage FROM masturbation and blockage resulting in masturbation. The first case it would be advisable to stop. In the second case, which is likely more common, it would be advisable to work on the other issues while safely managing the energy until there is a sufficient unblocking such that the flow can be handled normally... at which time it would be advisable to stop.

As justification, in my case, the other issues, independent of masturbation, have been somewhat irritating to work through, requiring much work and pensiveness. Until I find a time at which I feel these can be satisfactorily resolved, I feel it is doing more good than harm to occasionally siphon off some unused energy.

Two cases, blockage from and blockage resulting. Perhaps it's more like it is with any symptom, they are one and the same. If someone has a skin disease on their left arm coming from issues with sensitivity blocking them from recieving what makes them happy, or reaching for. The skin disease and the symptom are the same and are inseperable. As the law of One quote goes. The physical and the metaphysical are inseperable. If someone smokes because of some sort of difficulty in telling the truth or expression, then the smoking, even though it appears that someone could smoke to cause the blockage it's actually that the smoking is the result of the blockage. Otherwise the smoker wouldn't pick up or like the taste of the cigarette.

As for the porn people. Perhaps the masturbater and the porn star are reflecting to each other their respective levels of self respect/ respect of the body.

Anyone else?

[Magical_Mongoose]

I've been recently reading Plato's Republic and Aristotle's Politics for my political theory class, and also History and Its Discontents by Freud. Their philosophy has really interested me over the past couple of months and I think it could merge quite well with the Law of One.
Instead of having just a passion for ones desire, one should direct that passion, or eros, towards Knowledge. Instead of wasting it upon those desires that always return, one should instead focus that passion towards discovering the Universe that surrounds us, which will always sustain and support you, being a source of infinite knowledge itself. Although some may throw passion out the window, a Divine Cosmos member has wisely stated (to paraphrase) that nothing has occurred without that driving force that keeps one up at night to plump the depths of the fields that surround us. Some may be fearful of that passion, yet without it, one will be forever drained and unable to truly arrive upon what they came to find.
That journey of discovery is filled with pleasure or at least it should be. But you have to realize there are pleasures beyond the physical that you can tap into during states of deep meditation, where one realizes their connection with Everything. It places those pleasures into perspective, when you realize you can direct those energies to the various centres of your body through the power of relaxed concentration sans sex or drugs.
Your polarity is determined upon how you choose to focus those energies on various centres, but also in how you direct and project the energies you've gathered. I'll admit that when I tried moving this energy towards my heart chakra, I could sense a great deal of blockage.
But you have to leave that storage of pain behind to set it in its right place as just another lesson. Often its in those moments of recalling those hurtful moments that one is given a great deal of insight into your "true self". And one must eventually complete this process of reclaiming that energy and moving beyond guilt in order to move ahead.
Does celibacy lead to greater activation of the higher chakra centres, or does that activation lead to celibacy? It has to be arrived upon in the correct order or it will lead to even more suffering and confusion as one distances themselves from a centre that requires more love and non-judgmental awareness to complete its maturation.
We all want to fast-track, and that's one of the chief dangers I can perceive when one conceptualizes the Shift as being some galactic stopwatch that ends somewhere around 2012.
Be yourself. You have to know what you're doing, and you can only learn what you know.

[Firewalker]

Sorry to re-vamp such an old post but I may have made an error on this one.

Sexual energy, is not just in the root but in the sacral, in fact, perhaps only in the sacral, or both, or whatever.

But the chakra you think it goes to has an absolutely massive effect on where the energy goes. And a lot of natural joy is created from the sacral, so that's a good place for it.

I'm really starting to understand why chanelling often makes such a big deal out of 'discard whatever is not useful to you'.

Namaste.

[AmelieJolie]

My feeling on this is that the main thing is not to become addicted to anything. If a person can enjoy something without becoming addicted to it, then this allows them to live a full life. Imbalance arises through addiction.


Firewalker also asked a question regarding the sociopath.
My feeling is that such individuals are examples of what happens when extreme imbalance manifests. They are likely also to be in need of some profound healing.

[AmelieJolie]

Another thing to remember is that repression itself will cause blockages. We need to know and understand ourselves fully in order to blossom, once we do we may channel this in a pure/ beneficial way.

[AmelieJolie]

But I might be wrong.....I'm just trying to learn here.....teach/ learn....learn/ teach.

[MindOverEverything]

Another thing to remember is that repression itself will cause blockages. We need to know and understand ourselves fully in order to blossom, once we do we may channel this in a pure/ beneficial way.

I see truth in that. What we repress, we judge within ourselves. Much healthier, IMO, is to uncover what is repressed, expose it to the light of our own awareness and reclaim our power that we have put into it.

Hi

I was wondering about if most posters were male in this thread...it's not shown in the statistics..and so Amélie showed up...thanks....I feel so confused I cannot answer..have to think a lot before answering....

...anyway, regarding what David has said lately both in his video and in his readings about polyamory I have a hard time believing he should now have the opinion that masturbation is always negative...(he might have thought so earlier, I don't have a clue, but he might have changed his mind also)

...I'll be back, Liliane

...I'll be back, Liliane

If I recall, David said that masterbation caused a loss of energy, whereas sex between two people created energy.

I wonder though based on what David says about how it's okay to have polygomous relationships, if you would be super charged with energy from all those different partners one after the other. ;)

I see where you're going though Liliane, clearly if in Daivd (or Ra's) opinion, it is okay to have sex with a bunch of people at the same time (as long as your honest) it should be okay to masterbate.

I think it's just a matter of energy transfers though, not negativity.

I trust that Ra, through David, wasn't talking to people who are already in a long term exclusive relationship. I kind of wondered about that when I listened to that reading. I can just picture a man who has been married for ten years saying to his wife, hey honey, Ra said it's okay as long as I'm honest about it. :eek:

[Firewalker]

About the male/ female ratio, if I was not mistaken, it was only men 'writing' in the thread before Amelie entered and as she entered the post reached number 13. Which in my view at least is significant. 13 relates to lunar cycles and therefore women. (Sun men, Moon Women. Daniel Pinchbeck alludes to in his book on 2012).

According to Ra in the Law of One men and women store and therefore exchange differing energies.

Liliane...(he might have thought so earlier, I don't have a clue, but he might have changed his mind also)... Me: Lol, he does do that. I like it, Ghandi did that.

Kris: I trust that Ra, through David, wasn't talking to people who are already in a long term exclusive relationship.

Now I found that a very interesting reading, but would be also interested to hear how this view could be expressed with reference to Don Elkins.
