How small does it have to become for storage? Single "sticks" ?

Ra: I am Ra. They are unequal in space/time, and we recommend for practical use the solid-sided pyramid or other focusing shape in order to give your physical bodily complexes respite from outside noise, rain, and other distractions to meditation. However, in time/space one is concerned with the electro-magnetic field produced by the shape. An equivalent field is produced by the solid and the open shape. Light is influenced metaphysically by this field rather than by visible shapes.

Then boyscout them together with a bit of rope?

You could also use aquarium tubing of an appropriate diameter as connectors, just stick the ends of the sticks into them and thus make them bendable but "sorta one piece" like they do in some modern tents. It certainly improves foldability.

I'm not very informed on the exact demands for a meditation pyramid but if you want 8 sticks in a pyramid shape I'd do it myself. If your math feels really rusty I can help calculate lengths and such.

I think the only tools you'd need are a small saw a kitchen knife a stapler and some kind of measuring tape whatever you call it

I just painted a door. I feel very confident

Ali, I would be concerned about the precision of the structure. Were one side of my pyramid lopsided, I wouldn't want to wind up like Jeff Goldblum in the movie "The Fly". You know, I'm just minding my own business, meditating in my pyramid, in comes a fly, and next thing you know I am half man/half fly. This would suck on several levels.

Tobey, thank you for the excerpt. I'm definitely interested in the time/space effects made possible by the structure of the pyramid. No need for me to meditate in a solid-sided pyramid, though the increased isolation from outside sound and light would be very cool.

Thank you all!
GLB

PS: I'll report back on this thread after i've either purchased or built my own pyramid and meditated in it.

Quote:Questioner: Is the 76° and 18' angle at the apex of the pyramid a critical angle?

Ra: I am Ra. For the healing work intended, this angle is appropriate.

Questioner: Is there an apex angle that is the angle for maximum efficiency in the pyramid?

Ra: I am Ra. Again, to conserve this instrument’s energy, I am assuming that you intend to indicate the most appropriate angle of apex for healing work. If the shape is such that it is large enough to contain an individual mind/body/spirit complex at the appropriate off-set position within it, the 76° 18', approximate, angle is useful and appropriate. If the position varies, the angle may vary. Further, if the healer has the ability to perceive distortions with enough discrimination, the position within any pyramid shape may be moved about until results are effected. However, we found this particular angle to be useful. Other social memory complexes, or portions thereof, have determined different apex angles for different uses, not having to do with healing but with learning. When one works with the cone, or shall we say, the silo type of shape, the energy for healing may be found to be in a general circular pattern unique to each shape as a function of its particular height and width and in the cone shape, the angle of apex. In these cases, there are no corner angles. Thus the spiraling energy works in circular motion.

Questioner: Will you please do that?

Ra: The spiraling energy is beginning to be diffused at the point where it goes through the King’s Chamber position. However, although the spirals continue to intersect, closing and opening in double spiral fashion through the apex angle, the diffusion or strength of the spiraling energies, red through violet color values, lessens if we speak of strength, and gains, if we speak of diffusion, until at the peak of the pyramid you have a very weak color resolution useful for healing purposes. Thus the King’s Chamber position is chosen as the first spiral after the centered beginning through the Queen’s Chamber position. You may visualize the diffusion angle as the opposite of the pyramid angle but the angle being less wide than the apex angle of the pyramid, being somewhere between 33 and 54°, depending upon the various rhythms of the planet itself.

Questioner: Then I assume that if I start my angle at the bottom of the Queen’s Chamber and make a 33 to 54° angle from that point, so that half of that angle falls on the side of the centerline that the King’s Chamber is on, that will indicate the diffusion of the spectrum, starting from the point at the bottom of the Queen’s Chamber; let’s say, if we were using a 40° angle, we would have a 20° diffusion to the left of the centerline, passing through the King’s Chamber. Is that correct?

Ra: I am Ra. It is correct that half of the aforementioned angle passes through the King’s Chamber position. It is incorrect to assume that the Queen’s Chamber is the foundation of the angle. The angle will begin somewhere between the Queen’s Chamber position and thence downward towards the level of the resonating chamber, off-set for the healing work.

This variation is dependent upon various magnetic fluxes of the planet. The King’s Chamber position is designed to intersect the strongest spiral of the energy flow regardless of where the angle begins. However, as it passes through the Queen’s Chamber position, this spiraling energy is always centered and at its strongest point.

Questioner: Then if a pyramid shape is used, it would seem to me that it would be necessary to make it large enough so that the Queen’s Chamber position would be far enough from the King’s Chamber position so that you could use that energy position and not be harmed by the energy position of the King’s Chamber position. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. In this application a pyramid shape may be smaller if the apex angle is less, thus not allowing the formation of the King’s Chamber position. Also efficacious for this application are the following shapes: the silo, the cone, the dome, and the tipi.

Questioner: What would be an appropriate apex angle for a tipi shape for our uses?

Ra: I am Ra. This is at your discretion. The principle of circular, rounded, or peaked shapes is that the center acts as an invisible inductive coil. Thus the energy patterns are spiraling and circular. Thus the choice of the most pleasant configuration is yours. The effect is relatively fixed.

Questioner: The dangerous pyramid shape for use today would be a four-sided pyramid that was large enough to create the King’s Chamber effect. Is that statement correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This statement is correct with the additional understanding that the 76° apex angle is that characteristic of the powerful shape.

Questioner: Then I am assuming that we should not use a pyramid of 76° at the apex angle under any circumstances. Is that correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is at your discretion.

Questioner: I will restate the question. I am assuming then that it might be dangerous to use a 76° angle pyramid, and I will ask what angle less than 76° would be roughly the first angle that would not produce this dangerous effect?

Ra: I am Ra. Your assumption is correct. The lesser angle may be any angle less than 70°.

Questioner: Why is the spiraling light focused by something as open and simple as four wooden rods joined at an apex angle?

Ra: I am Ra. If you pictured light in the metaphysical sense, as water, and the pyramid shape as a funnel, this concept might become self-evident.

Questioner: Could I assume then that from all points in space light radiates in our illusion outward in a 360° solid angle and this scoop shape with the pyramid then creates the coherence to this radiation as a focusing mechanism? Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is precisely correct.

Questioner: You mentioned the problems with the action in the King’s Chamber of the Giza-type pyramid. I am assuming if we used the same geometrical configuration that is used in the pyramid at Giza this would be perfectly all right for the pyramid placed beneath the head since we wouldn’t be using the King’s Chamber radiations but only the third spiral from the top, and I’m also asking if it would be better to use a 60° apex angle than the larger apex angle? Would it provide a better energy source?

Ra: I am Ra. For energy through the apex angle the Giza pyramid offers an excellent model. Simply be sure the pyramid is so small that there is no entity small enough to crawl inside it.

Questioner: Then are you saying that there is absolutely no need, use, or good in having the King’s Chamber effect at this time in our planetary evolution?

Ra: I am Ra. If those who desired to be healers were of a crystallized nature and were all supplicants, those wishing less distortion, the pyramid would be, as always, a carefully designed set of parameters to distribute light and its energy so as to aid in healing catalyst.

However, we found that your peoples are not distorted towards the desire for purity to a great enough extent to be given this powerful and potentially dangerous gift. We, therefore, would suggest it not be used for healing in the traditional, shall we say, King’s Chamber configuration which we naively gave to your peoples only to see its use grossly distorted and our teachings lost.

Questioner: Is there any variation in the effect with respect to the material of construction, the thickness of the material? Is it simply the geometry of the shape, or is it related to some other factors?

I stumbled onto the following yesterday. In light of that info, a tipi or conical shape might be easier to fabricate. For those of us that are less, uh, carpenter – arily inclined, lol.

Interesting to note that nearly all the great churches, mosques and other religious edifices use dome, minaret or peaked architecture almost exclusively. Yet most western cultures use a box for living purposes. Farther into this channelling Ra mentions the fact that the cube or box is the least conducive shape for the transmission or conductance of spiritual energies.

Kind of makes you wonder then.

Oh I would love to meditate in a tipi. However I've got my mind set on the pyramid for now. And I am finally taking action.

I've determined that I want a pyramid made of equilateral triangles. I am going to purchase eight 2 x 2 pieces of wood and, using the suggestion of a friend, connect them with wooden dowel rods. (The pyramid needs to be able to be disassembled, no room for permanent pyramid.)

Because the pyramid will be made of equilateral triangles, I believe that all eight pieces (four at the base and four rising to the apex) should be of equal length. Is anyone able to validate this?

At what angle to make the cuts on the wood is the difficult part. The four base sides forming the square is easy, 45 degree cut to create a 90 degree angle. It is the cuts on the four pieces rising to the apex that the challenge comes in, especially the cuts where the four pieces join at the apex.

Fortunately I have a neighbor who owns a small carpentry business. He thinks he can help me.

I'll post to this thread concerning the success or failure of the project. And Gemini Wolf, good luck!

  Only the frame itself is needed. No sides. It can be completely open to the air. As Ra says here, it is only the shape which is of importance. http://lawofone.info/results.php?session_id=58&ss=1#13.
  
  2) It needs to be able to be disassembled and reassembled as I don’t have room to house it any other way. Our plan for achieving this end was to use wooden dowels, but there may be a superior way of going about this.
  
  3) The three interior angles of all four triangles must be exactly sixty degrees. (Or as exact as is possible.)
