But few humans have reached the level of evolution he had (in my opinion). He was also a vegetarian and I doubt very much he disrespected his physical body. True. But, though vegetarian, he ate a lot of dairy. He died from a heart attack, at a relatively young age.

I don't know how to do that. That's why I started the thread. I was hoping that others might have some ideas.

I don't think in terms of Ra's 'main' message but of Ra's complete message, at least as far as I am able to understand it. To leave out any part, in favor of another part, is to miss something important.

He speaks many times of the duality of polarization yet aren't you the one excluding the part where Ra says it is an illusion. In the end, what Ra says is irrelevent to my message, it was meant from me to you.

I understand your point. But while it may forward self-acceptance, it would also continue to cause cruelty in the world (the effects of human consumption on other life forms and the planet itself). I just can't imagine evolved beings wanting to do this. I feel they would find another way. The overall gain would be questionable. Wouldn't it be better to provide a good example, while also accepting other people without judging? This has worked a lot in my life (not that I set out to do it). I know several people who no longer kill insects and remove them from the premises instead, because they have seen me do it. I never preached about it or even explained it (unless it was to a friend who asked or here in this forum where we discuss all many of things). They extrapolated their own ideas and had their own feelings about why I did such a thing. Compare this to: I kill life forms (insects) too because it's convenient, and I don't judge anyone else or myself for it; and I accept myself for it because I think it's all one anyway, and this promotes self-acceptance in others. We all eventually evolve to respect life after we love ourselves for who we are and become capable of seeing others as ourselves. Nothing wrong with that (except that I would not do it). The latter scenario is, in my opinion, not the optimal one. RE: Law of One Religion? - Bluebell - 02-15-2015 aren't u preaching now? RE: Law of One Religion? - Diana - 02-15-2015 I forgot to add in the above post that the people I know who now don't kill insects don't even realize they got that idea from me. Some may think I am being egotistical, but I'm not. These people are family and very close friends. Some are nephews who spent time with me growing up. I know this because of how they do it and what they say about it. It is also very unlikely they have encountered any other source to incite such action, although it is possible. None of them have had any interest in Buddhism or Hinuism for example. In any case, it just makes me smile, no matter how it came about.

That way you preserve free will in the highest way possible by being a part of this forgetting, while also having to deal directly with your teachings as a learner (we're always doing that), and become entwined in their consequences. Trial by fire. I guess what Ra meant in that dialogue is, Don made certain unspoken connections and it was highly probable to him that there was/were member/members from Ra as wanderers in their group.

Judging others is sad. But here, in this open forum, we are openly discussing subjects. All humans are imperfect as far as I can tell. So the trick is to simply not take judgments personally and forgive the judge, since the judging is their issue. And, we are all interested here, I assume, in growing and evolving based on at least in part, the LOO; and we help each other in myriad ways including unconscious catalyst. I agree their has been a lot of carefully disguised venom. In this case I try and exercise detachment. RE: Law of One Religion? - Bluebell - 02-15-2015 forgive the judge because ur the judge. we're each other.

In my understanding the judge should not be forgiven but thanked instead for he gives you an opportunity to raise your awareness of your own distortions. The judge is here because he was needed here, he plays his own role in the unfolding of Creation. All interactions among self and ohter-selves are but the meeting of two desires to complement each other. All I see is division among those seeking Oneness, this thread seems to bring to light a lot of imbalances and should be viewed as a magnificent catalyst and not something undesirable.

Holy moly, you got me wrong. Are you calling me self-righteous? Have at it if it blows your skirt up. Um, where did I say chain smoking is okay? Where did I say meat is bad? I mentioned that Yogananda was a vegetarian for the same reason you just said yourself: It's not ideal. I mentioned it as a possible cause for the health of his dead body in not deteriorating. I was canvassing different ideas of how people could live long while doing toxic or harmful things to the body. This is a perfect example of the utter distortion where meat-eating is concerned. The emotional drama in my opinion derives from those in defense of eating meat. I said nothing about the morality of eating meat and met with the above reaction. Going against so-called authority is commendable. It guarantees you make your own decisions. But (and here I know from experience), try not to cut off your nose to spite your face, as they say.

So is a disagreement an imbalance? RE: Law of One Religion? - Shawnna - 02-15-2015 It's quite surprising how those who claim to be so evolved can justify their hurtful words. Compassion and unconditional love are desirable traits and can always be reflected in our words even when discussing catalyst-inducing issues.

Not necessarily, it'd be the Creator having difficulty understanding the Creator from different perspectives. Imbalances might have not been a good wording. In the end we are nothing but mirrors reflecting the Creator to others and seeing the Creator in others. There is no right or wrong.

Only when those 'unique choices' cause suffering to innocent victims. I invite you to think about what the abolitionists must have experienced. Surely they encountered much opposition, and were accused of being 'judgmental' for trying to free the humans slaves. Yet now, we consider them heroes, for their work. But they were very unpopular at the time. (02-15-2015, 04:16 PM)Shawnna Wrote: Who are we to judge the choices others make? This is exactly why I am always very careful to avoid judging any particular person. But where does moral relativism end? Do you think we can never say that anything is wrong? After all, who are we to judge the murderer, or the rapist? Should we just respect their choice and placate them, saying "It's ok if you 'choose' to rape that woman...it's fine...who am I to judge?" Is that what you think we should do in all cases? (02-15-2015, 04:16 PM)Shawnna Wrote: And some have written with such venom, albeit carefully disguised. If you perceive venom in the words of the vegetarians, you have misinterpreted. We feel only sadness, frustration, and a sense of urgency, as we hear the cries of the billions of souls crying out for help. On the other hand, there has been plenty of outright venom - not even disguised at all, but quite explicit - directed at us. (02-15-2015, 04:16 PM)Shawnna Wrote: It saddens me.

RE: Law of One Religion? - Bluebell - 02-15-2015 please Diana. u said chain smoking is negligible but vegetarianism must be a contributing factor to his health? LOL "The emotional drama in my opinion derives from those in defense of eating meat." lol. i'm not the one whose signature judges others & offends people. i don't tell u wut to eat. the emotion & drama is from being told wut to do. by self righteous people like u. i don't like that & naturally go against that because i came to this planet to be different than the herds. not better but different. i don't defend eating meat, but currently it's wut i choose for my health. u weren't there when i got sick. i was vegetarian & i got very very sick. torture. maybe i can be ok w supplements but it's terrifying to me at the moment to rely solely on that. it broke me to be vegetarian until i caved to eat meat, i was suicidal. i was a burden to others. so i caved. i'm so sorry i didn't live up to ur standards. it's why i'm emotional, because it fucking broke & tortured me to NOT eat meat. my nose is great, thanks. my point was, forcing often backfires.
