Hi, all! As is usually the case following something posted on asc2k I soon run into related material that expands and develops the thoughts expressed. It seems one of the most troublesome aspects of the Ra material concerns the role of polarity. Chapter #6 of the Wanderer's Handbook (found on LLResearch.org)really gets its teeth into the subject. From Q'uo We have used the terms "the way of that which is" to describe the path of the positive polarity and "the path of that which is not" to describe the path of negative polarity. Both paths reach the same Creator. (that last statement is a real shocker! b.g.) (discussion) Question: What is that which is? Unity. What is that which is not? Separation. (following abridged thoughts from the WH butchered by b.g.) Positive polarity chooses to give love and sevice without expectation of return.. Negative polarity see others as needing to be controlled and protected for their own good by the self. TO LOVE without demand or to CONTROL is THE choice of this third density. The dark side does provide a vital service to spiritual growth. The point was made that in youth service-to-self is mandatory since a child is not equipped in any real fashion to engage in true service to others. A child must wait until he/she gains a reasonable understanding of the worldly situaion. Our own "darkside" is best accepted and LOVED...it does provide us with a needed backbone of strength. Simply being aware of this side of our nature does not mean that we are negatively polarized in the final balance. An interesting example was given. The flow of spiritual light is much like the flow of water from a faucet. Service to others is the faucet, pouring forth light... but to replenish the supply of water it must re-circulate in a big continuous loop...transversing the full circle of half light/half dark. (In Larsonian physics the concept of anti-matter is an essential component in establishing a reciprocal universe) I'll wind this down with a comment from Carla: "This inspires my passionate hope! What we want to avoid is the well of indifference, that powerless land of the unpolarized" From Q'uo Those who are indifferent in your density are those most to be mourned, for as they eat and drink and are merry without regard to serving others or the self, they simply continue in this density of experience, finding upon graduation that they have not graduated, they have not learned to love, they have not learned to turn towards the light, or to use the light. And so they shall be given, not hell, any more than third density is hell, but simply another third-density experience lasting approximately 75,000 of your years. love/service/etc., billybob PS someone brought up a query I would like to respond to: One does not have to have any intellectual knowledge of the LoO doctrines to advance spiritually. In fact, merely concentrating on gaining intellectual knowledge at the expense of actually living and manifesting love from the heart is downright detrimental. For myself, one who leans towards reading rather than doing, this finding is a bothersome warning. It seems I can easily will myself to read volumes but I cannot directly will myself to generate a warm heart and noble character. And when things go wrong I respond to the challenge by assuming the fetal position. Not an optimum use of valuable catalyst. The best I can hope is that in learning more it reminds me to keep pointed in sorta the right direction. Hey! Is there something in the Ra material about faking it until one make it? (:>)) Guess not. |

I also spend a lot of time reading. I don't know if it will help you, but this quote from session 96 has helped me "fake it till I make it" on occasion: "May we note that just as each entity strives in each moment to become more nearly one with the Creator but falls short, just so is physical spotlessness striven for but not achieved. In each case the purity of intention and thoroughness of manifestation are appreciated. The variance between the attempt and the goal is never noted and may be considered unimportant."

Here's a quote that's made qute an impresion on me, from another source (The Jason Journal by Ron Goettsche and Ron Fogg), about accepting ourselves for who and what we are, here and now: "Accept that at this moment you are a perfect YOU. You may not be finished because ultimate perfection has not yet been obtained, but that is not necessary at this point. An apple tree when it is six inches tall does not bear fruit, but it is a perfect six-inch apple tree at that moment, and it will do that which it is meant to do both now and in the future. It does perfectly that which it is meant to do at any given moment. So, also, are you perfect at any given moment...if you are a six-inch apple tree, you are just that and should not compare yourself to a seven-inch apple tree." As this applies to your concerns, Bill, it may be perfectly appropriate for you to be reading a lot at this time. Reading itself is a form of doing, after all. Keep reading! :-) Jen --- In asc2k@yahoogroups.com, Tobey Wheelock <asc2k@...> wrote: > > I also spend a lot of time reading.
