Wherein Lies the Power of the Archetypes? - xise - 07-26-2013 Adonai One Wrote:Why did Ra never reveal them flat-out? Why does he explain the archetypes in such an obscure way? Why does he encourage everyone to interpret them as they please? Mmmm power... RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Spaced - 07-26-2013 The cards have no power. The mind has power. RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - native - 07-26-2013 They wouldn't want to limit infinity. "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." "An individual mind/body/spirit complex may use any catalyst which comes before its notice, be it through the body and its senses or through mentation or through any other more highly developed source, and use this catalyst in its unique way to form an experience unique to it, with its biases."

Because Everything is in the processing of the multitude of layers they mean and can be used as. RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Unbound - 07-26-2013 Yep, nothing new about that, it is an old practice to veil such "secrets". Funny, because in mythology it is claimed that the 'cards' were actually created by Thoth, were also called the Tarrochi when first made in to cards and as a game and they were apparently originally a book which was copied down and somehow obtained by Egyptian gypsies whom then developed the cards themselves. They are said to contain the complete system of Thoth's magic and knowledge and basically explain the process of the creation and evolution of the soul and the Great Work as Thoth is an alchemical master. RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Adonai One - 07-26-2013 Does this book still exist? RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Unbound - 07-26-2013 I have also seen it suggested that at one point there were 23 cards with one card that is the "Master Card" of the deck, wonder where that one went... Aha Hard to say, possibly, but not in any accessible way or beyond the status of "legendary artifact". http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Thoth If you examine the Emerald Tablets of Thoth there is much to be discovered. One of my mentors was very versed with them, quite interesting. RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Adonai One - 07-26-2013 I assume Thoth is a inner planes entity, eh? RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Unbound - 07-26-2013 No, not really, Thoth is an entity in the same capacity as Ra. RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Adonai One - 07-26-2013 Is he really that powerful? I assumed most of the Egyptian "gods" were astral entities?

They are real beings, I am quite positive.

I don't think so, my brother... Besides, daddy Ra said: daddy, 97.9 Wrote:To put this into perspective we must gaze then at the stunning mystery of the One Infinite Creator. The archetypical mind does not resolve any paradox or bring all into unity. This is not the property of any resource which is of the third density. Therefore, may we ask the student to look up from inward working and behold the glory, the might, the majesty, the mystery, and the peace of oneness. Let no consideration of bird or beast, darkness or light, shape or shadow keep any which seeks from the central consideration of unity.

Depends what you consider a period of study and discipline. It wasn't easy going through the cards like I did. I used channeling to dive right into it. I am still assured my understanding is quite sufficient in application of my pursuits. lol You guys can hate on my unique understanding all you want. ![]() (07-26-2013, 03:48 PM)Ankh Wrote:(07-26-2013, 11:10 AM)Adonai One Wrote: All I am going to make really clear is this: If you seek awesome power, it's in these cards.

While they do not themselves bring one into unity, can they guide one into unity? RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Unbound - 07-26-2013 Not sure how they could if they do not help to resolve paradoxes aha as I understand the archetypal mind is an interface for working with whatever Logos design one is experiencing. Hence why when the archetypes were first being developed by the Logos they were lesser in number. Quote:Questioner: Now we are getting to what I was trying to determine. Then at this point were there still only nine archetypes and the veil had just been drawn between the Matrix and Potentiator?

My understanding is that if one's seeking is of a specific vibration/purity, then there will be teachers of the density/vibration appropriate to that seeking/purity. RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Unbound - 07-26-2013 http://lawofone.info/results.php?q=archetypical+mind&st=phrase&qo=&lh=aq&qc=0&s=&c=&fp=0&v=e&l=80&o=r Quote:Ra: I am Ra. We ask once again that you consider that the archetypical mind is a part of the deep mind. There are several portions to this mind. The mind may serve as a resource. To call the archetypical mind the foundation of experience is to oversimplify the activities of the mind/body/spirit complex. Quote:Questioner: Thank you. Then finally, as each energy center becomes activated and balanced, the Transformation of the Mind is called upon more and more frequently. When all of the energy centers are activated and balanced to a minimal degree, contact with intelligent infinity occurs; the veil is removed; and the Great Way of the Mind is called upon. Is this correct? RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Adonai One - 07-26-2013 What is the purpose of study of the archetypes? RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Unbound - 07-26-2013 "archetypical mind which denotes and configures the particular framework within which the Mind, the Body, or the Spirit archetypes move." RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Adonai One - 07-26-2013 How do I contradict that? For I agree. Does not understanding the framework and movement enable power? RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Unbound - 07-26-2013 I believe their purpose relates to what Ra calls the "disciplines of the personality". You seem to equate abilities of manipulation with power?

The ability to manifest according to your will... is that not power? RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Unbound - 07-26-2013 Quote:Questioner: Now, what I am trying to get at is how these disciplines affect the energy centers and the power, shall I say, of the white magician. Could you, will you tell me how that works? RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Adonai One - 07-26-2013 That doesn't answer the question, my friend. Are not the archetypes about how to manifest in this reality which therein enables one to discover themselves as the creator and know the paradoxes? Of course the archetypes don't show the answers but do they not show the path? RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Unbound - 07-26-2013 (07-26-2013, 04:14 PM)Adonai One Wrote:(07-26-2013, 04:13 PM)Tanner Wrote: I believe their purpose relates to what Ra calls the "disciplines of the personality". Aha No, I would not say it is, maybe power in a material sense, but not true power. Power is awareness, the ability to manifest is really more of an emergent effect of spiritual power, but is not the power itself. The Yogis and Buddhists often refer to the dangers of becoming "intoxicated by siddhis" or becoming obsessed with "spiritual powers". RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Adonai One - 07-26-2013 Heh, you separate material from the spiritual. RE: The core truth about the archetypes. - Unbound - 07-26-2013 I wouldn't say they show the path so much as describe the assembly of the path, but I do not think they provide a path themselves, they are more like stations or way-points that one may choose to go to and from. Ra, I believe, explicitly states that each archetype is also a thing in themselves.

However, as Ra said, it does not bring things into unity.

Because I refer to a difference between spiritual power and material power? What I suggest is that material gain is not the same as spiritual gain. I do not separate the realms, I acknowledge the spectrum of mind in relation to experience and the many levels of perception through which it does so. The spiritual and material are one, but that doesn't mean there is no focal difference in terms of relating the concepts to experience. Quote: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. |
