THE LAW OF ONE
Book IV
By Ra, an humble messenger of The Law of One
Book Four explores in great detail the archetypical mind which is
the framework provided by our Logos or sun body to aid each of us in
the evolution of mind, body, and spirit. Tarot, astrology, and
ritual magic are three paths offering the study of the archetypical
mind, and in Book Four a study of that rich resource is undertaken
using the tarot, which Ra gave to the Egyptians 11,000 years ago.
Information is also uncovered on the nature and purpose of the veil
that we experience between the conscious and the unconscious minds
and the process of “forgetting” that occurs during each incarnation
in our third-density experience. In Book Four the path of the adept
becomes more clear as Ra elucidates the adept’s use of experience to
balance its energy centers and penetrate the veil of forgetting.
Sessions #76 ... #78 |
RA, Session #76, February 3, 1982
RA: I am Ra. I greet you in the love and in the light of the One
Infinite Creator. We communicate now.
QUESTIONER: Could you first please give me an indication of the
condition of the instrument? RA: I am Ra. This instrument is in a state of physical complex
bankruptcy which has existed for some of the measure you call time.
The vital energies are normal with a strong spiritual complex
counterpart and will lending substance to the mind/body/spirit
complex energy levels.
QUESTIONER: Will our continued communication with Ra be deleterious
to the physical energies of the instrument? RA: I am Ra. We may answer in two modes. Firstly, if the instrument
were thusly dedicated to this use with no transfer of energy of
physical complex nature it would begin to call upon the vital energy
itself and this, done in any substantive measure, is actively
deleterious to a mind/body/spirit complex if that complex wishes
further experience in the illusion which it now distorts.
Secondly, if care is taken, firstly, to monitor the outer parameters
of the instrument, then to transfer physical energy by sexual
transfer, by magical protection, and, lastly, by the energetic
displacements of thought-forms energizing the instrument during
contact there is no difficulty in that there is no worsening of the
instrument’s mind/body/spirit complex distortions of
strength/weakness.
It is to be noted that the instrument, by dedicating itself to this
service, attracts greetings of which you are aware. These are
inconvenient but, with care taken, need not be lastingly deleterious
either to the instrument or the contact.
QUESTIONER: Of the three things that you mentioned that we could do
for the instrument’s benefit, would you clarify the last one? I
didn’t quite understand what you meant. RA: I am Ra. As the entity which you are allows its being to
empathize with any other being, so then it may choose to share with
the other-self those energies which may be salubrious to the
other-self. The mechanism of these energy transfers is the thought
or, more precisely, the thought-form for any thought is a form or
symbol or thing that is an object seen in time/space reference.
QUESTIONER: Has our use of the Banishing Ritual of the Lesser
Pentagram been of any value and what is its effect? RA: I am Ra. This group’s use of the Banishing Ritual of the Lesser
Pentagram has been increasingly efficacious. Its effect is
purification, cleansing, and protection of the place of working.
The efficacy of this ritual is only beginning to be, shall we say,
at the lower limits of the truly magical. In doing the working those
aspiring to adepthood have done the equivalent of beginning the
schoolwork, many grades ahead. For the intelligent student this is
not to be discouraged; rather to be encouraged is the homework, the
reading, the writing, the arithmetic, as you might metaphorically
call the elementary steps towards the study of being. It is the
being that informs the working, not the working that informs the
being. Therefore, we may leave you to the work you have begun.
QUESTIONER: Would it be beneficial for us to perform the banishing
ritual more in this room? RA: I am Ra. It is beneficial to regularly work in this place.
QUESTIONER: I am sorry that we have had such a long delay between
the last session and this one. It couldn’t be helped I guess. Could
you please tell me the origin of the tarot? RA: I am Ra. The origin of this system of study and divination is
twofold:
firstly, there is that influence which, coming in a distorted
fashion from those who were priests attempting to teach the Law of
One in Egypt, gave form to the understanding, if you will pardon the
misnomer, which they had received. These forms were then made a
regular portion of the learn/teachings of an initiate.
The second
influence is that of those entities in the lands you call Ur, Chaldea, and Mesopotamia who, from old, had received the, shall we
say, data for which they called having to do with the heavens.
Thusly we find two methods of divination being melded into one with
uneven results; the, as you call it, astrology and the form being
combined to suggest what you might call the correspondences which
are typical of the distortions you may see as attempts to view
archetypes.
QUESTIONER: Then am I correct in assuming that the priests of Egypt,
in attempting to convert knowledge that they had received initially
from Ra into understandable symbology, constructed and initiated the
concept of the tarot? Is this correct? RA: I am Ra. This is correct with the addition of the Sumerian
influence.
QUESTIONER: Were Ra’s teachings focusing on the archetypes for this
Logos and the methods of achieving a very close approach to the
archetypical configuration? Is this correct? RA: I am Ra. This is correct without being true. We, of Ra, are
humble messengers of the Law of One. We seek to teach/learn this
single law. During the space/time of the Egyptian teach/learning we
worked to bring the mind complex, the body complex, and the spirit
complex into an initiated state in which the entity could contact
intelligent energy and so become teach/learner itself so that
healing and the fruits of study could be offered to all. The study
of the roots of mind is a portion of the vivification of the mind
complex and, as we have noted, the thorough study of the portion of
the roots of mind called archetypical is an interesting and
necessary portion of the process as a whole.
QUESTIONER: Is there, in Ra’s opinion, any present day value for the
use of the tarot as an aid in the evolutionary process? RA: I am Ra. We shall repeat information. It is appropriate to study
one form of constructed and organized distortion of the archetypical
mind in depth in order to arrive at the position of being able to
become and to experience archetypes at will. You have three basic
choices. You may choose astrology, the twelve signs, as you call
these portions of your planet’s energy web, and what has been called
the ten planets. You may choose the tarot with its twenty-two
so-called Major Arcana. You may choose the study of the so-called
Tree of Life with its ten Sephiroth and the twenty-two relationships
between the stations.
It is well to investigate each discipline, not as a dilettante, but
as one who seeks the touchstone, one who wishes to feel the pull of
the magnet. One of these studies will be more attractive to the
seeker. Let the seeker, then, investigate the archetypical mind
using, basically, one of these three disciplines. After a period of
study, the discipline mastered sufficiently, the seeker may then
complete the more important step: that is, the moving beyond the
written in order to express in an unique fashion its understanding,
if you may again pardon the noun, of the archetypical mind.
QUESTIONER: Would I be correct in saying that the archetypes of this
particular Logos are somewhat unique with respect to the rest of the
creation? The systems of study that we have just talked about would
not translate quickly or easily in other parts of the creation. This
is a very difficult question to state. Could you clear that up for
me? RA: I am Ra. We may draw from the welter of statement which you
offer the question we believe you ask. Please requestion if we have
mistaken your query. The archetypical mind is that mind which is
peculiar to the Logos under which influence you are at this
space/time distorting your experiences. There is no other Logos the
archetypical mind of which would be the same any more than the stars
would appear the same from another planet in another galaxy. You may
correctly infer that the closer Logoi are indeed closer in
archetypes.
QUESTIONER: Since Ra evolved initially on Venus Ra is of the same
archetypical origin as that which we experience here. Is this
correct? RA: I am Ra. This is correct.
QUESTIONER: But I am assuming that the concepts of the tarot and the
magical concepts of the Tree of Life, etc. were not in use by Ra. I
suspect, possibly, some form of astrology was a previous Ra concept.
This is just a guess. Am I correct? RA: I am Ra. To express Ra’s methods of study of the archetypical
mind under the system of distortions which we enjoyed would be to
skew your own judgment of that which is appropriate for the system
of distortions forming the conditions in which you learn/teach.
Therefore, we must invoke the Law of Confusion.
QUESTIONER: I am going to ask some questions now that may be a
little off the center of what we are trying to do. I’m not sure
because I’m trying to, with these questions, unscramble something
that I consider very basic to what we are doing. Please forgive my
lack of ability in questioning since this is a difficult concept for
me. Could you give me an idea of the length of the first and second
densities as they occurred for this planet? RA: I am Ra. There is no method of estimation of the time/space
before timelessness gave way in your first density. To the
beginnings of your time, the measurement would be vast and yet this
vastness is meaningless. Upon the entry into the constructed
space/time your first density spanned a bridge of space/time and
time/space of perhaps two billion of your years.
Second density is more easily estimated and represents your longest
density in terms of the span of space/time. We may estimate that
time as approximately 4.6 billion years. These approximations are
exceedingly rough due to the somewhat uneven development which is
characteristic of creations which are built upon the foundation
stone of free will.
QUESTIONER: Did you state that second density was 4.6 billion years?
B, b-i-l? Is that correct? RA: I am Ra. This is correct.
QUESTIONER: Then we have a third density that is, comparatively
speaking, the twinkling of an eye, the snap of a finger in time
compared to the others. Why is the third density cycled so extremely
rapidly compared to the first and second? RA: I am Ra. The third density is a choice.
QUESTIONER: Third density, then, compared to the rest of the
densities, all of them, is nothing but a uniquely short period of
what we consider to be time and is for the purpose of this choice. Is this correct?
RA: I am Ra. This is precisely correct. The prelude to choice must
encompass the laying of the foundation, the establishment of the
illusion and the viability of that which can be made spiritually
viable. The remainder of the densities is continuous refining of the
choice. This also is greatly lengthened, as you would use the term.
The choice is, as you put it, the work of a moment but is the axis
upon which the creation turns.
QUESTIONER: Is this third-density choice the same throughout all of
the creation of which you are aware? RA: I am Ra. We are aware of creations in which third density is
lengthier and more space/time is given to the choosing. However, the
proportions remain the same, the dimensions all being somewhat
etiolated and weakened by the Logos to have a variant experience of
the Creator. This creation is seen by us to be quite vivid.
QUESTIONER: I didn’t understand what you meant by what you said “as
seen by you to be quite vivid”. What did you mean? RA: I am Ra. This creation is somewhat more condensed by its Logos
than some other Logoi have chosen. Thus each experience of the
Creator by the Creator in this system of distortions is, relatively
speaking, more bright or, as we said, vivid.
QUESTIONER: I am assuming that upon entry into third density, for
this planet, disease did not exist in any form. Is this correct?
RA: I am Ra. This is incorrect.
QUESTIONER: What disease or form of disease was there and why did
this exist at the beginning of the third density? RA: I am Ra. Firstly, that which you speak of as disease is a
functional portion the body complex which offers the body complex
the opportunity to cease viability. This is a desirable body complex
function. The second portion of the answer has to do with
second-density other-selves of a microscopic, as you would call it,
size which have in some forms long existed and perform their service
by aiding the physical body complex in its function of ceasing
viability at the appropriate space/time.
QUESTIONER: What I am trying to understand is the difference between
the plan of the Logos for these second-density entities and the
generation of what I would guess to be more or less a runaway array
of feedback to create various physical problems to act as catalyst
in our present third-density condition. Could you give me an
indication of whether my thinking is anywhere near right on that?
RA: I am Ra. This instrument’s physical body complex is becoming
more distorted towards pain. We shall, therefore, speak to this
subject as our last full query of this working. Your query contains
some internal confusion which causes the answer to be perhaps more
general than desired. We invite refinements of the query.
The Logos planned for entities of mind/body/spirit complex to gain
experience until the amount of experience was sufficient for an
incarnation. This varied only slightly from second-density entities
whose mind/body complexes existed for the purpose of experiencing
growth and seeking consciousness. As the third density upon your
planet proceeded, as has been discussed, the need for the physical
body complex to cease became more rapidly approached due to
intensified and more rapidly gained catalyst. This catalyst was not
being properly assimilated. Therefore, the, shall we say, lifetimes
needed to be shorter that learning might continue to occur with the
proper rhythm and increment. Thus more and more opportunities have
been offered as your density has progressed for disease. May we ask
if there are further brief queries before we close?
QUESTIONER: I have one question that is possibly of no value. You
don’t have to expand on it, but there is a crystal skull in the
possession of a woman near Toronto. It may be of some value in
investigating these communications with Ra since I think possibly
this had some origin from Ra. Can you tell me anything about that,
and then is there anything that we can do to improve the contact or
to make the instrument more comfortable? RA: I am Ra. Although your query is one which uncovers interesting
material we can not answer due to the potential an answer may have
for affecting your actions. The appurtenances are carefully placed
and requisite care taken. We are appreciative. All is well.
I am Ra. I leave you, my friends, in the love and the light of the
One Infinite Creator. Go forth, therefore, glorying and rejoicing in
the power and in the peace of the One Infinite Creator. Adonai.
Go Back
RA, Session #77, February 10, 1982
RA: I am Ra. I greet you in the love and in the light of the One
Infinite Creator. We communicate now.
QUESTIONER: Could you please give me an indication of the condition
of the instrument? RA: I am Ra. It is as previously stated.
QUESTIONER: Was the instrument under attack just prior to this
session? RA: I am Ra. This is correct.
QUESTIONER: Is there anything that we could do to help protect the
instrument from these attacks prior to the session? RA: I am Ra. This is correct.
QUESTIONER: What could we do?
RA: I am Ra. Your group could refrain from continuing this contact.
QUESTIONER: Is that the only thing that we could do?
RA: I am Ra. That is the only thing you could do which you are not
already attempting with a whole heart.
QUESTIONER: I have three questions that the instrument asked me to
ask which I will get out of the way first. She wants to know if the
preparation for her hospital experience could be improved if she
should ever have to repeat it? RA: I am Ra. All was done well with one exception. The instrument
was instructed to spend space/time contemplating its self as the
Creator. This, done in a more determined fashion, would be
beneficial at times when the mind complex is weakened by severe
assaults upon the distortions of the body complex towards pain.
There is no necessity for negative thought-forms regardless of pain
distortions. The elimination of such creates the lack of possibility
for negative elementals and other negative entities to use these
thought-forms to create the worsening of the mind complex deviation
from the normal distortions of cheerfulness/anxiety.
QUESTIONER: The instrument would also like to know if what we call
tuning could be improved during times when we do not communicate
with Ra? RA: I am Ra. That which has been stated in regard to the latter
question will suffice to point the way for the present query.
QUESTIONER: Finally, she wishes to know why several days ago her
heart rate went up to 115 per minute and why she had extreme pain in
her stomach? Was that an Orion greeting? RA: I am Ra. Although this experience was energized by the Orion
group the events mentioned, as well as others more serious, were
proximally caused by the ingestion of certain foodstuffs in what you
call your tablet form.
QUESTIONER: Can you tell me what these tablets were, specifically?
RA: I am Ra. We examine this query for the Law of Confusion and find
ourselves close to the boundary, but acceptably so. The substance which caused the bodily reaction of the heartbeat was
called Pituitone by those which manufacture it. That which caused
the difficulty which seemed to be cramping of the lower abdominal
musculature but was, in fact, more organic in nature was a substance
called Spleentone. This instrument has a physical body complex of complicated balances
which afford it physical existence. Were the view taken that certain
functions and chemicals found in the healthy, as you call it, body
complex are lacking in this one and, therefore, simply must be
replenished, the intake of the many substances which this instrument
began would be appropriate. However, this particular physical
vehicle has, for approximately twenty-five of your years, been vital
due to the spirit, the mind, and the will being harmoniously
dedicated to fulfilling the service it chose to offer. Therefore, physical healing techniques are inappropriate whereas
mental and spiritual healing techniques are beneficial.
QUESTIONER: Is there any technique that we could use that we have
not been using that would be beneficial for the instrument in this
case? RA: I am Ra. We might suggest, without fractiousness, two. Firstly,
let the instrument remove the possibility of further ingestion of
this group of foodstuffs. Secondly, each of the group may become aware of the will to a
greater extent. We cannot instruct upon this but merely indicate, as
we have previously, that it is a vital key to the evolution of the
mind/body/spirit complex.
QUESTIONER: Thank you. I would like to go back to the plan of this
Logos for Its creation and examine the philosophical basis that is
the foundation for what was created in this local creation and the
philosophy of the plan for experience. I am assuming that I am
correct in stating that the foundation for this, as has been stated
many times before, is the first distortion. After that, what was the
plan in the philosophical sense? RA: I am Ra. We cannot reply due to a needed portion of your query
which has been omitted; that is, do we speak of this particular
Logos?
QUESTIONER: That is correct. I am asking with respect to this
particular sub-Logos, our sun. RA: I am Ra. This query has substance. We shall begin by turning to
an observation of a series of concept complexes of which you are
familiar as the tarot. The philosophy was to create a foundation, first of mind, then of
body, and then of spiritual complex. Those concept complexes you
call the tarot lie then in three groups of seven: the mind cycle,
one through seven; the physical complex cycle, eight through
fourteen; the spiritual complex cycle, fifteen through twenty-one.
The last concept complex may best be termed The Choice. Upon the foundation of the transformation of each complex, with free
will guided by the root concepts offered in these cycles, the Logos
offered this density the basic architecture of a building and the
constructing and synthesizing of data culminating in The Choice.
QUESTIONER: Then to condense your statement, I see it meaning that
there are seven basic philosophical foundations for mental
experience, seven for bodily, seven for spiritual, and that these
produce the polarization that we experience sometime during the
third-density cycle. Am I correct? RA: I am Ra. You are correct in that you perceive the content of our
prior statement with accuracy. You are incorrect in that you have no
mention of the, shall we say, location of all of these concept
complexes; that is, they exist within the roots of the mind and it
is from this resource that their guiding influence and leitmotifs
may be traced. You may further note that each foundation is itself
not single but a complex of concepts. Furthermore, there are
relationships betwixt mind, body, and spirit of the same location in
octave, for instance: one, eight, fifteen, and relationships within
each octave which are helpful in the pursuit of The Choice by the
mind/body/spirit complex. The Logos under which these foundations
stand is one of free will. Thusly the foundations may be seen to
have unique facets and relationships for each mind/body/spirit
complex. Only twenty-two, The Choice, is relatively fixed and
single.
QUESTIONER: Then I am probably having a problem with the concept of
time since it appears that the Logos was aware of the polarization
choice. It seems that this choice for polarization at the end of
third density is an important philosophical plan for the experience
past third density. Am I correct in assuming that this process is a
process to create the proper or desired experience that will take
place in the creation after third density is complete? RA: I am Ra. These philosophical foundations are those of third
density. Above this density there remains the recognition of the
architecture of the Logos but without the veils which are so
integral a part of the process of making the choice in third
density.
QUESTIONER: The specific question that I had was that it seems to me
that the choice was planned to create intense polarization past
third density so that experience would be intense past third
density. Is this correct? RA: I am Ra. Given that our interpretation of your sound vibration
complexes is appropriate, this is incorrect. The intensity of fourth
density is that of the refining of the rough-hewn sculpture. This
is, indeed, in its own way, quite intense causing the
mind/body/spirit complex to move ever inward and onward in its quest
for fuller expression. However, in third density the statue is
forged in the fire. This is a type of intensity which is not the
property of fourth, fifth, sixth, or seventh densities.
QUESTIONER: What I am really attempting to understand, since all of
these twenty-one philosophical bases result in the twenty-second
which is The Choice, is why this choice is so important, why the
Logos seems to put so much emphasis on this choice, and what
function this choice of polarity has, precisely, in the evolution or
the experience of that which is created by the Logos? RA: I am Ra. The polarization or choosing of each mind/body/spirit
is necessary for harvestability from third density. The higher
densities do their work due to the polarity gained in this choice.
QUESTIONER: Would it be possible for this work of our density to be
performed if all of the sub-Logoi chose the same polarity in any
particular expression or evolution of a Logos? Let us make the
assumption that our sun created nothing but, through the first
distortion, positive polarity. There was no product except positive
polarity. Would work then be done in fourth density and higher as a
function of only the positive polarization evolving from the
original creation of our sub-Logos? RA: I am Ra. Elements of this query illustrate the reason I was
unable to answer your previous question without knowledge of the
Logos involved. To turn to your question, there were Logoi which
chose to set the plan for the activation of mind/body/spirit
complexes through each true color body without recourse to the prior
application of free will. It is, to our knowledge, only in an
absence of free will that the conditions of which you speak obtain.
In such a procession of densities you find an extraordinarily long,
as you measure time, third-density; likewise, fourth density. Then,
as the entities begin to see the Creator, there is a very rapid, as
you measure time, procession towards the eighth density. This is due
to the fact that one who knows not, cares not. Let us illustrate by observing the relative harmony and unchanging
quality of existence in one of your, as you call it, primitive
tribes. The entities have the concepts of lawful and taboo, but the
law is inexorable and all events occur as predestined. There is no
concept of right and wrong, good or bad. It is a culture in
monochrome. In this context you may see the one you call Lucifer as
the true light-bringer in that the knowledge of good and evil both
precipitated the mind/body/spirits of this Logos from the Edenic
conditions of constant contentment and also provided the impetus to
move, to work and to learn. Those Logoi whose creations have been set up without free will have
not, in the feeling of those Logoi, given the Creator the quality
and variety of experience of Itself as have those Logoi which have
incorporated free will as paramount. Thusly you find those Logoi
moving through the timeless states at what you would see as a later
space/time to choose the free will character when elucidating the
foundations of each Logos.
QUESTIONER: I guess, under the first distortion, it was the free
will of the Logos to choose to evolve without free will. Is this
correct? RA: I am Ra. This is correct.
QUESTIONER: Do the Logoi that choose this type of evolution choose
both the service-to-self and the service-to-others path for
different Logoi, or do they choose just one of the paths? RA: I am Ra. Those, what you would call, early Logoi which chose
lack of free will foundations, to all extents with no exceptions,
founded Logoi of the service-to-others path. The, shall we say, saga
of polarity, its consequences and limits, were unimagined until
experienced.
QUESTIONER: In other words you are saying that originally the Logoi
that did not choose this free will path did not choose it simply
because they had not conceived of it and that later Logoi, extending
the first distortion farther down through their evolution,
experienced it as an outcropping or growth from that extension of
the first distortion. Am I correct in saying that? RA: I am Ra. Yes.
QUESTIONER: Then did this particular Logos that we experience plan
for this polarity and know all about it prior to its plan? I suspect
that this is what happened. RA: I am Ra. This is quite correct.
QUESTIONER: In that case, as a Logos, you would have an advantage of
selecting the form of acceleration, you might say, of spiritual
evolution by planning what we call the major archetypical
philosophical foundations and planning these as a function of the
polarity that would be gained in third density. Is this correct?
RA: I am Ra. This is exquisitely correct.
QUESTIONER: In that case, it seems that a thorough knowledge of the
precise nature of these philosophical foundations would be of
primary importance to the study of evolution of mind, body, and
spirit, and I would like to carefully go through each, starting with
the mind. Is this agreeable with Ra? RA: I am Ra. This is agreeable with two requests which must be made.
Firstly, that an attempt be made to state the student’s grasp of
each archetype. We may then comment. We cannot teach/learn to the
extent of learn/teaching. Secondly, we request that it be constantly
kept before the mind, as the candle before the eye, that each
mind/body/spirit complex shall and should and, indeed, must perceive
each archetype, if you use this convenient term, in its own way.
Therefore, you may see that precision is not the goal; rather the
quality of general concept complex perception is the goal.
QUESTIONER: Now, there are several general concepts that I would
like to be sure that we have clear before going into this process
and I will certainly adhere to the requests that you have just
stated. When our Logos designed this particular evolution of experience It
decided to use a system of which we spoke allowing for polarization
through total free will. How is this different from the Logos that
does not do this? I see the Logos creating the possibility of
increase in vibration through the densities. How are the densities
provided for and set by the Logos, if you can answer this? RA: I am Ra. This shall be the last full query of this working. The
psychic attack upon this instrument has, shall we say, left scars
which must be tended, in our own opinion, in order to maintain the
instrument. Let us observe your second density. Many come more rapidly to third
density than others not because of an innate efficiency of catalysis
but because of unusual opportunities for investment. In just such a
way those of fourth density may invest third, those of fifth density
may invest fourth. When fifth density has been obtained the process
takes upon itself a momentum based upon the characteristics of
wisdom when applied to circumstance. The Logos Itself, then, in
these instances provides investment opportunities, if you wish to
use that term. May we enquire if there are any brief queries at this
space/time?
QUESTIONER: Is there anything that we can do after this contact to
increase the comfort as related to the psychic attack, or is there
anything that we can do to make the instrument more comfortable and
to improve the contact in the present situation? RA: I am Ra. The faculties of healing which each has commenced
energizing may be used. The entity may be encouraged to remain
motionless for a period. As it will not appreciate this, we suggest
the proper discussion. The physical appurtenance called the censer was just a degree off,
this having no deeper meaning. We do ask, for reasons having to do
with the physical comfort of the instrument, that you continue in
your careful efforts at alignment. You are conscientious. All is
well. We leave you, my friends, in the glorious love and light of the One
Creator. Go forth, therefore, rejoicing in the power and in the
peace of the One Infinite Creator. I am Ra. Adonai.
Go Back
RA, Session #78, February 19, 1982
RA: I am Ra. I greet you in the love and in the light of the One
Infinite Creator. We communicate now.
QUESTIONER: Was there some problem with the ritual we performed that
made it necessary to perform the ritual twice? RA: I am Ra. There was a misstep which created a momentary lapse of
concentration. This was not well.
QUESTIONER: What was the misstep?
RA: I am Ra. It was a missed footing.
QUESTIONER: Did this have any detrimental effect on the instrument?
RA: I am Ra. Very little. The instrument felt the presence it has
come to associate with cold and spoke. The instrument did the
appropriate thing.
QUESTIONER: Could you tell me the condition of the instrument?
RA: I am Ra. The physical complex is as previously stated. There is
some slight loss of vital energy. The basic complex distortions are
similar to your previous asking.
QUESTIONER: The instrument would like for me to ask if there is any
problem with her kidneys? RA: I am Ra. This query is more complex than its brevity certifies.
The physical complex renal system of this instrument is much
damaged. The time/space equivalent which rules the body complex is
without flaw. There was a serious question, due to psychic attack,
as to whether the spiritual healing of this system would endure. It
did so but has the need to be re-enforced by affirmation of the
ascendancy of the spiritual over the apparent or visible. When this instrument began ingesting substances designed to heal in
a physical sense, among other things, the renal complex, this
instrument was ceasing the affirmation of healing. Due to this,
again, the healing was weakened. This is of some profound distortion
and it would be well for the instrument to absorb these concepts. We
ask your forgiveness for offering information which may abridge free
will, but the dedication of the instrument is such that it would
persevere regardless of its condition, if possible. Thusly we offer
this information that it may persevere with a fuller distortion
towards comfort.
QUESTIONER: What was the experience that caused the healing of the
time/space kidney? RA: I am Ra. This experience was the healing of self by self with
the catalyst of the spiritual healer whom you call Pachita.
QUESTIONER: Thank you. In utilizing the energetic displacements of
thought-forms energizing the instrument during contact most
efficiently, what specifically could we do? RA: I am Ra. Each of the support group has an excess of love and
light to offer the instrument during the working. Already each sends
to the instrument love, light, and thoughts of strength of the
physical, mental, and spiritual configurations. These sendings are
forms. You may refine these sendings until the fullest
manifestations of love and light are sent into the energy web of
this entity which functions as instrument. Your exact sending is, in
order to be most potent, the creature of your own making.
QUESTIONER: Thank you. I am going to go back to an earlier time, if
you could call it that, in evolution to try to establish a very
fundamental base for some of the concepts that seem to be the
foundation of everything that we experience so that we can more
fully examine the basis of our evolution. I am guessing that in our Milky Way Galaxy (the major galaxy with
billions of stars) that the progress of evolution was from the
center outward toward the rim and that in the early evolution of
this galaxy the first distortion was not extended down past the
sub-Logos simply because it was not thought of or conceived of and
that this extension of the first distortion, which created
polarization, was something that occurred in what we would call a
later time as the evolution progressed outward from the center of
the galaxy. Am I in any way correct in this statement? RA: I am Ra. You are correct.
QUESTIONER: We have the first, second, and third distortions of the
Law of One as free will, love, and light. Am I correct in assuming
that the central core of this major galaxy began to form with the
third distortion? Was that the origin of our Milky Way Galaxy?
RA: I am Ra. In the most basic or teleological sense you are
incorrect as the One Infinite Creator is all that there is. In an
undistorted seed-form you are correct in seeing the first
manifestation visible to the eye of the body complex which you
inhabit as the third distortion, light, or to use a technical term,
limitless light.
QUESTIONER: I realize that we are on very difficult ground, you
might say, for precise terminology. It is totally displaced from our
system of coordinates for evaluation in our present system of
language. These early Logoi that formed in the center of the galaxy wished, I
assume, to create a system of experience for the One Creator. Did
they then start with no previous experience or information about how
to do this? This is difficult to ask. RA: I am Ra. At the beginning of this creation or, as you may call
it, octave there were those things known which were the harvest of
the preceding octave. About the preceding creation, we know as
little as we do of the octave to come. However, we are aware of
those pieces of gathered concept which were the tools which the
Creator had in the knowing of the self. These tools were of three kinds. Firstly, there was an awareness of
the efficiency for experience of mind, body, and spirit. Secondly,
there was an awareness of the most efficacious nature or, if you
will, significator of mind, body, and spirit. Thirdly, there was the
awareness of two aspects of mind, of body, and of spirit that the
significator could use to balance all catalyst. You may call these
two the matrix and the potentiator.
QUESTIONER: Could you elaborate please on the nature and quality of
the matrix and the potentiator? RA: I am Ra. In the mind complex the matrix may be described as
consciousness. It has been called the Magician. It is to be noted
that of itself consciousness is unmoved. The potentiator of
consciousness is the unconscious. This encompasses a vast realm of
potential in the mind. In the body the matrix may be seen as Balanced Working or Even
Functioning. Note that here the matrix is always active with no
means of being inactive. The potentiator of the body complex, then,
may be called Wisdom for it is only through judgment that the
unceasing activities and proclivities of the body complex may be
experienced in useful modes. The Matrix of the Spirit is what you may call the Night of the Soul
or Primeval Darkness. Again we have that which is not capable of
movement or work. The potential power of this extremely receptive
matrix is such that the potentiator may be seen as Lightning. In
your archetypical system called the tarot this has been refined into
the concept complex of the Lightning Struck Tower. However, the
original potentiator was light in its sudden and fiery form; that
is, the lightning itself.
QUESTIONER: Would you elucidate with respect to the significator you
spoke of? RA: I am Ra. The original significators may undifferentiatedly be
termed the mind, the body, and the spirit.
QUESTIONER: Then we have, at the beginning of this galactic
evolution, an archetypical mind that is the product of the previous
octave which this galaxy then used as and acts upon under the first
distortion so as to allow for what we experience as polarity. Was
there any concept of polarity carried through from the previous
octave in the sense of service-to-others or service-to-self
polarity? RA: I am Ra. There was polarity in the sense of the mover and the
moved. There was no polarity in the sense of service-to-self and
service-to-others.
QUESTIONER: Then the first experiences, as you say, were in
monochrome. Was the concept of the seven densities of vibration with
the evolutionary process taking place in discrete densities carried
through from the previous octave? RA: I am Ra. To the limits of our knowledge, which are narrow, the
ways of the octave are without time; that is, there are seven
densities in each creation infinitely.
QUESTIONER: Then I am assuming that the central suns of our galaxy,
in starting the evolutionary process in this galaxy, provided for,
in their plans, the refinement of consciousness through the
densities just as we experience it here. However, they did not
conceive of the polarization of consciousness with respect to
service-to-self and service-to-others. Is this correct? RA: I am Ra. This is correct.
QUESTIONER: Why do the densities have the qualities that they have?
You have named the densities with respect to their qualities, the
next density being that of love and so on. Can you tell me why these
qualities exist in that form? Is it possible to answer that
question? RA: I am Ra. It is possible.
QUESTIONER: Will you please answer that?
RA: I am Ra. The nature of the vibratory range peculiar to each
quantum of the octave is such that the characteristics of it may be
described with the same certainty with which you perceive a color
with your optical apparatus if it is functioning properly.
QUESTIONER: So the original evolution then was planned by the Logos
but the first distortion was not extended to the product. At some
point this first distortion was extended and the first
service-to-self polarity emerged. Is this correct and if so, could
you tell me the history of this process of emergence? RA: I am Ra. As proem let me state that the Logoi always conceived
of themselves as offering free will to the sub-Logoi in their care.
The sub-Logoi had freedom to experience and experiment with
consciousness, the experiences of the body, and the illumination of
the spirit. That having been said, we shall speak to the point of
your query. The first Logos to instill what you now see as free will, in the
full sense, in its sub-Logoi came to this creation due to
contemplation in depth of the concepts or possibilities of
conceptualizations of what we have called the significators. The
Logos posited the possibility of the mind, the body, and the spirit
as being complex. In order for the significator to be what it is
not, it then must be granted the free will of the Creator. This set
in motion a quite lengthy, in your terms, series of Logos’s
improving or distilling this seed thought. The key was the
significator becoming a complex.
QUESTIONER: Then our particular Logos, when it created Its own
particular creation, was at some point far down the evolutionary
spiral of the experiment with the significator becoming what it was
not and, therefore, I am assuming, was primarily concerned in
designing the archetypes in such a way that they would create the
acceleration of this polarization. Is this in any way correct?
RA: I am Ra. We would only comment briefly. It is generally correct.
You may fruitfully view each Logos and its design as the Creator
experiencing Itself. The seed concept of the significator being a complex introduces two
things: firstly, the Creator against Creator in one sub-Logos in what you
may call dynamic tension; secondly, the concept of free will, once
having been made fuller by its extension into the sub-Logoi known as
mind/body/spirit complexes, creates and re-creates and continues to
create as a function of its very nature.
QUESTIONER: You stated previously that The Choice is made in this
third-density and is the axis upon which the creation turns. Could
you expand on your reason for making that statement? RA: I am Ra. This is a statement of the nature of creation as we
speak to you.
QUESTIONER: I did not understand that. Could you say that in a
different way? RA: I am Ra. As you have noted, the creation of which your Logos is
a part is a protean entity which grows and learns upon a macrocosmic
scale. The Logos is not a part of time. All that is learned from
experience in an octave is, therefore, the harvest of that Logos and
is further the nature of that Logos. The original Logos’s experience was, viewed in space/time, small;
Its experience now, more. Therefore we say, as we now speak to you
at this space/time, the nature of creation is as we have described.
This does not deny the process by which this nature has been
achieved but merely ratifies the product.
QUESTIONER: After third density, in our experience, social memory
complexes are polarized positively and negatively. Is the
interaction of social memory complexes of opposite polarity
equivalent, but on a magnified scale, to the interaction between
mind/body/spirit complexes of opposite polarity? Is this how
experience is gained as a function of polarity difference in fourth
and fifth densities? RA: I am Ra. No.
QUESTIONER: This is a hard question to ask, but what is the value
experientially of the formation of positive and negative social
memory complexes, of the separation of the polarities at that point
rather than the allowing for the mixing of mind/body/spirit
complexes of opposite polarity in the higher densities? RA: I am Ra. The purpose of polarity is to develop the potential to
do work. This is the great characteristic of those, shall we say,
experiments which have evolved since the concept of The Choice was
appreciated. Work is done far more efficiently and with greater
purity, intensity, and variety by the voluntary searching of
mind/body/spirit complexes for the lessons of third and fourth
densities. The action of fifth density is viewed in space/time the
same with or without polarity. However, viewed in time/space, the
experiences of wisdom are greatly enlarged and deepened due, again,
to the voluntary nature of polarized mind/body/spirit action.
QUESTIONER: Then you are saying that as a result of the polarization
in consciousness which has occurred later in the galactic evolution,
the experiences are much more intense along the two paths. Are these
experiences each independent of the other? Must there be action
across the potentiated difference between the positive and negative
polarity, or is it possible to have this experience simply because
of the single polarity? This is difficult to ask. RA: I am Ra. We would agree. We shall attempt to pluck the gist of
your query from the surrounding verbiage. The fourth and fifth densities are quite independent, the positive
polarity functioning with no need of negative and visa-versa. It is
to be noted that in attempting to sway third-density
mind/body/spirit complexes in choosing polarity there evolves a good
bit of interaction between the two polarities. In sixth density, the
density of unity, the positive and negative paths must needs take in
each other for all now must be seen as love/light and light/love.
This is not difficult for the positive polarity which sends love and
light to all other-selves. It is difficult enough for
service-to-self polarized entities that at some point the negative
polarity is abandoned.
QUESTIONER: The choice of polarity being unique as a circumstance,
shall I say, for the archetypical basis for the evolution of
consciousness in our particular experience indicates to me that we
have arrived, through a long process of the Creator knowing Itself,
at a position of present or maximum efficiency for the design of a
process of experience. That design for maximum efficiency is in the
roots of consciousness and is the archetypical mind and is a product
of everything that has gone before. There are, unquestionably,
relatively pure archetypical concepts for the seven concepts for
mind, body, and spirit. I feel that the language that we have for
these is somewhat inadequate. However, we shall continue to attempt to investigate the foundation
for this and I am hoping that I have laid the foundation with some
degree of accuracy in attempting to set a background for the
development of the archetypes of our Logos. Have I left out anything
or made any errors, or could you make any comments on my attempt to
lay the foundation for the construction that our Logos used for the
archetypes? RA: I am Ra. Your queries are thoughtful.
QUESTIONER: Are they accurate, or have I made mistakes?
RA: I am Ra. There are no mistakes.
QUESTIONER: Let me put it this way. Have I made missteps in my
analysis of what has led to the construction of the archetypes that
we experience? RA: I am Ra. We may share with you the observation that judgment is
no part of interaction between mind/body/spirit complexes. We have
attempted to answer each query as fully as your language and the
extent of your previous information allow. We may suggest that if,
in perusing this present material, you have further queries,
refining any concept, these queries may be asked and, again, we
shall attempt adequate rejoinders.
QUESTIONER: I understand your limitations in answering that. Thank
you. Could you tell me how, in the first density, wind and fire teach
earth and water? RA: I am Ra. You may see the air and fire of that which is chaos as
literally illuminating and forming the formless, for earth and water
were, in the timeless state, unformed. As the active principles of
fire and air blow and burn incandescently about that which nurtures
that which is to come, the water learns to become sea, lake, and
river offering the opportunity for viable life. The earth learns to
be shaped, thus offering the opportunity for viable life.
QUESTIONER: Are the seven archetypes for mind a function of or
related to the seven densities that are to be experienced in the
octave? RA: I am Ra. The relationship is tangential in that no congruency
may be seen. However, the progress through the archetypes has some
of the characteristics of the progress through the densities. These
relationships may be viewed without being, shall we say, pasted one
upon the other.
QUESTIONER: How about the seven bodily energy centers? Are they
related to archetypes in some way? RA: I am Ra. The same may be said of these. It is informative to
view the relationships but stifling to insist upon the limitations
of congruency. Recall at all times, if you would use this term that
the archetypes are a portion of the resources of the mind complex.
QUESTIONER: Is there any relationship between the archetypes and the
planets of our solar system? RA: I am Ra. This is not a simple query. Properly, the archetypes
have some relationship to the planets. However, this relationship is
not one which can be expressed in your language. This, however, has
not halted those among your people who have become adepts from
attempting to name and describe these relationships. To most purely
understand, if we may use this misnomer, the archetypes it is well
to view the concepts which make up each archetype and reserve the
study of planets and other correspondences for meditation.
QUESTIONER: It just seemed to me that since the planets were an
outgrowth of the Logos and since the archetypical mind was the
foundation of the experience that the planets of this Logos would be
somewhat related. We will certainly follow your suggestion. I have been trying to get a foothold into an undistorted perception,
you might say, of the archetypical mind. It seems to me that
everything that I have read having to do with archetypes has been,
to some degree or another, distorted by the writers and by the fact
that our language is not really capable of description. You have spoken of the Magician as a basic archetype and that this
seems to have been carried through from the previous octave. Would
this be in order-if there is an order-the first archetypical concept
for this Logos, the concept that we call the Magician? RA: I am Ra. We would first respond to your confusion as regards the
various writings upon the archetypical mind. You may well consider
the very informative difference between a thing in itself and its
relationships or functions. There is much study of archetype which
is actually the study of functions, relationships, and
correspondences. The study of planets, for instance, is an example
of archetype seen as function. However, the archetypes are, first
and most profoundly, things in themselves and the pondering of them
and their purest relationships with each other should be the most
useful foundation for the study of the archetypical mind. We now address your query as to the archetype which is the Matrix of
the Mind. As to its name, the name of Magician is understandable
when you consider that consciousness is the great foundation,
mystery, and revelation which makes this particular density
possible. The self-conscious entity is full of the magic of that
which is to come. It may be considered first, for the mind is the
first of the complexes to be developed by the student of spiritual
evolution.
QUESTIONER: Would the archetype then that has been called the High
Priestess, which represents the intuition, be properly the second of
the archetypes? RA: I am Ra. This is correct. You see here the recapitulation of the
beginning knowledge of this Logos; that is, matrix and potentiator.
The unconscious is indeed what may be poetically described as High
Priestess, for it is the Potentiator of the Mind and as potentiator
for the mind is that principle which potentiates all experience.
QUESTIONER: Then for the third archetype would the Empress be
correct and be related to disciplined meditation? RA: I am Ra. I perceive a mind complex intention of a query, but was
aware only of sound vibratory statement. Please requestion. QUESTIONER. I was asking if the third archetype was the Empress and
was it correct to say that this archetype had to do with disciplined
meditation? RA: I am Ra. The third archetype may broadly be grasped as the
Catalyst of the Mind. Thus it takes in far more than disciplined
meditation. However, it is certainly through this faculty that
catalyst is most efficiently used. The Archetype, Three, is perhaps
confusedly called Empress although the intention of this number is
the understanding that it represents the unconscious or female
portion of the mind complex being first, shall we say, used or
ennobled by the male or conscious portion of the mind. Thus the
noble name.
QUESTIONER: The fourth archetype is called the Emperor and seems to
have to do with experience of other-selves and the green-ray energy
center with respect to other-selves. Is this correct? RA: I am Ra. This is perceptive. The broad name for Archetype Four
may be the Experience of the Mind. In the tarot you find the name of
Emperor. Again this implies nobility and in this case we may see the
suggestion that it is only through the catalyst which has been
processed by the potentiated consciousness that experience may
ensue. Thusly is the conscious mind ennobled by the use of the vast
resources of the unconscious mind. This instrument’s dorsal side grows stiff, and the instrument tires.
We welcome one more query.
QUESTIONER: I would like to ask the reason for this session having
been longer than most previous sessions and also if there is
anything that we can do to make the instrument more comfortable or
to improve the contact? RA: I am Ra. This instrument was given far more than the, shall we
say, usual amount of transferred energy. There is a limit to the
amount of energy of this type which may, with safety, be used when
the instrument is, itself, without physical reserves. This is
inevitable due to the various distortions such as we mentioned
previously in this working having to do with growing dorsal
discomfort. The alignments are fastidious. We appreciate your conscientiousness.
In order to enhance the comfort of the instrument it might be
suggested that careful manipulation of the dorsal area be
accomplished before a working. It is also suggested that, due to the attempt at psychic attack,
this instrument will require warmth along the right side of the
physical complex. There has been some infringement but it should not
be long-lasting. It is, however, well to swaddle this instrument
sufficiently to ward off any manifestation of this cold in physical
form. I am Ra. I leave you, my friends, in the love and in the light of
the One Infinite Creator. Go forth, therefore, merrily rejoicing in
the power and in the peace of the One Infinite Creator. Adonai.
