"Spiritual Correctness"

[βαθμιαίος]

To use the word Love as a descriptor for anything other than a very specific vibration or harmonic leaves a lot of room for error IMHO.

I'm not saying Love doesn't exist. It obviously does. We feel it. We act because of it.
It's an important catalyst. For us. Locally.

But to think of it as a foundation of Creation is not seeing The Big Picture... BIG enough.

A possibly relevant quote:

27.13 Questioner: Is Love— is there a manifestation of love that we could call vibration?
Ra: I am Ra. Again we reach semantic difficulties. The vibration or density of love or understanding is not a term used in the same sense as the second distortion, Love; the distortion Love being the great activator and primal co-Creator of various creations using intelligent infinity; the vibration love being that density in which those who have learned to do an activity called “loving” without significant distortion, then seek the ways of light or wisdom. Thus in vibratory sense love comes into light in the sense of the activity of unity in its free will. Love uses light and has the power to direct light in its distortions. Thus vibratory complexes recapitulate in reverse the creation in its unity, thus showing the rhythm or flow of the great heartbeat, if you will use this analogy.

Outstanding!

Thank you so much Minyatur and B for those quotes.
They're very helpful in clarifying for me.

There is a vast body of Knowledge the Team has brought forth here.
Even though so much of it feels so familiar to me, I have not even scratched the surface of much of it.

My Gratitude knows no bounds.

Thank You. All.

ummm.... have I been Spiritually Incorrect enough yet?

...those who put actual effort into upholding a community centered around transparent honesty, humility, acceptance and love. 

To be a part of a community is a give and take.

If you want to criticize, you’ve got to be willing to accept criticism, and if you want acceptance in spite of all your flaws, you’ve got to be willing to work very hard at accepting the flaws of others. This environment is the result of constant group effort...

I just excerpted a few pieces from your wonderful post which emphasizes that a) the online community is created and re-created and sustained  by the input of everyone who participates, and b) it requires effort, hard work, and the ability especially to look into the mirror and see ones own projections and shadows.

Though there have been fluctuations, ups and downs, and energies that tested the heart of the community, I never fail to be impressed and blown away with participating members' abilities to bring the discord and disharmony into the heart, and work toward resolution.

Each member who chips in on that effort helps to foster a culture here that becomes self-perpetuating. It sets standards, it invites more of the same, and, while not immune from negative energies, a culture helps to protect against derailing, defocusing, and disharmonious energies.

And thank God for those members who help keep that culture balanced by and centered in the heart. The moderators definitely have a role to play, but they can only do so much. The bulk of the work lies in the hands of each who contributes to the forums.

My personal fear has been that the collaborative, positive, loving Bring4th culture would lose its center and stray from the open heart. That however has not been realized. 7.5 years on and this community continues to, in the main, keep love on track. Thanks to all who roll up the sleeves.
