nexus,
Please DO take this personally, but not with the thought of conveyed malice and contempt on my part. This is just my honest as possible assessment of an oddly transpiring series of posts and related synchronicities.
It feels like the vibe between you and I has developed into a case of zealot vs. heretical apologist, first in the "Disturbed Reptilian Rock Band" thread, and then in the Magnetics and Ascension thread, where you point out the blasphemy in another point of view and then attempt to prove that YOUR truth is the right one. Are you aware of this dynamic? The part of it that I like is that you are forcing me to reconsider parts of my paradigm and experience which is always a fruitful endeavor if kept in check, but ultimately putting in the work nexessary to satisfy your questions would drain a lot of my time/energy which I could be using more proactively...and I have a feeling it would just keep going on until NR closes. You may notice that I ask several questions in this post but they are intended to be rhetorical as I won't be going through with expanding this unhealthy energy exchange between us much longer.
"I spy with my little eye" that your puritanical ways (past lives?) could be actually acting as a hindance rather than a salvation of your soul's development. The thing about the puritan-agitator's zealotry is that through it they seek the reward of energetic profit in their social-intellectual pursuits, even if that goes against what they teach. While it does stirs things up, one must ask what the resulting concoction is made of and how nutritious is it for those involved?
If I were you I would buy/download, read, and properly analyze the whole Lo1 series as objectively as possible and then reevaluate your position, because from what I see it is clearly a source of friction for you and I think you might benefit more from checking it out yourself and figuring things out instead of coming on NR to debate it with others who are familiar enough with the material to have an impossible time explaining it to you on YOUR terms. If you have indeed read it (hasn't been made totally clear) then I apologize for my assumptions.
It may interest you to know that I have had the Way of the Fool as a theme recently, as I was reading The Zelator, and dealing with "doctrine" issues both with myself and other friends. The #22 came up a lot (think NR close date) and Ra designates the "Fool" card as the 22nd major arcana card (usually considered 0). They call it "The Choice" card which represents the choice of polarity (STO/STS) in 3rd density. To them the other 21 cards related to the 7 archetypes of mind, body, and spirit within 3rd density (the level of formation of mind/body/spirit complexes). So the 22nd card (Fool/Choice) is determined by the immersion in these 21 archetypes. Studying the verity of even this one part of the Lo1 teachings may prove to you the probable validity of the Ra source as being overwhelmingly positive in nature, in deed and essence.
Anyway, I recently noticed that you had the put the word "fool" as the title under your user name, which synched up with my current research and learning themes. The funny thing is that around that time I had put in my MSN name "[Poffo]...is a Fool" and had to keep telling inquiring friends to mind the capital F lest they think I was in a state of self-loathing. There IS a difference between a fool and a Fool, as there is between an i and the I. I even got an email of reassurance that I wasn't the crazy one in the Ra debate in Magnetics and Ascension...
What kind of Fool already has his mind already made up going in and balks at anything which goes against it? And wouldn't a real Fool be humble in his learnings and not try to force them down people's throats (which is clearly a violation of the 5th Chakra Protection Act ) <- my inanity, not Ra's.
nexus wrote:My point with all this was to point out that, although i share Poffo's respect and affection for Edgar Cayce, i would be very careful of putting him on a pedestal and then transferring that over to David Wilcock.
I would be careful of putting me on a pedestal too....;)
I was responding to Poffo's unqualified one liner...For the sake of Christ, who is the spirit of truth within us we must realise that no- one is infallible. Edgar wasn't in his prior incarnations and Wilcock isn't in this life either. He may actually be mistaken on crucial matters, whether or not that can be attributed to ego. I was asking the question because i am at a loss to know why he would overlook such gross errors.
nexus, I was trying to make a joke, hence the ";)". 'twas supposed to be a play on his "reincarnation of Edgar Cayce" fame and foundation, while also pointing to the fact that the soul of Edgar Cayce was one who respected and attempted to channel the Christ essence in life.....get it? ...:o.....:/.......:|.......:rolleyes:...
We know Cayce and Wilcock aren't perfect so why is their infallibility such a contentious issue? Shouldn't the quality of fruit speak for the parental tree?
[my bold emphasis]
The idea would be unthinkable if not for the deadly lies folded into the "Ra"material and the way the whole thing is so tailor made for this one soul. Cayce said he would return as a "liberator of humanity". Could that have been an invitation to some group (astra and / or physical) to give him a dud message for humanity? And i am not simply refering to the silly errors (of grammar and syntax) which the silly "C"s are referring to in their % accuracy count for the "Ra" material. (as if those kinds of errors matter as much as the question of "IS THIS TRUE?")
Deadly lies? I'm willing to bet that a significantly higher percentage of the population who have read the Law of One books have been brought further into LIFE than those who it has somehow, in the "nexus Scheme" way of looking at it, brought into death because of Ra's ob(liv)ious deception.
What if I told you that I have seen their tailoring work within the fabric of my soul's wandering reincarnational spectrum? Wait, I just told you.... . The Lo1 teachings have had a profound impact on my reawakening this time around (as well as others for sure). I have been able to extract knowledge out of those 4 tiny books, and new things each time, that have led to the development of my personal philosophy/cosmology which contain (to the best of my knowledge) new keys for the esoteric locks that hide away truth from the light of day. Each time reading the series I extract more, and I think you could say this about any inspirational text. I have had FAR too many POSITIVE synchronicities surrounding this material and information contained within it to deny for me, using maximum discernment power at hand, the huge personal relevance as well as the load of truth it contains within its obvious distortions.
I don't think it was written exclusively for me, but I think I was written for it
Of course there are distortions within the Law of One sessions, mostly because they were:
A) channeled
B) ...by humans!
But are the distortions enough to make you shrug your shoulders at the entire body of information? To declare the Ra source a "dud" based on some things you can't personally wrap your paradigm around (different explanation of esoteric "bodies", density graduation/ascension, the STS/STO soul polarity,...) would with wise eyes be seen as philosophical suicide.
I am Poffo. I leave you now in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator. Go forth then rejoicing in the power and in the peace of the one infinite Creator. Adonai. <- joke
