Unless the missing hyphen means anything... It's like saying running 20 kilometers per hour is as hard as running 5. Unless he means that 5% is as hard for the STS guys as 51% is to STO oriented guys.
Ra was basically implying that 3D entities are essentially STS. The universe is throwing you a bone by making it relatively easier to graduate STO and giving you some resistance for something that is is relatively easier like graduating STS. In other words, being something like 5% STO would be virtually impossible for a 3D entity.
Not according to Ra's words:
Quote:17.33 Questioner: Why is the negative path so much more difficult a path to attain harvestability upon than the positive?
Ra: I am Ra. This is due to a distortion of the Law of One which indicates that the gateway to intelligent infinity be a gateway at the end of a strait and narrow path as you may call it. To attain fifty-one percent dedication to the welfare of other-selves is as difficult as attaining a grade of five percent dedication to other-selves. The, shall we say, sinkhole of indifference is between those two.
My point is that it's simple math. 51% STO implies that it's really difficult to be 5% STO. I'm not saying that one is harder or one is easier. My point is that since we are basically STS (and I can pull up the quote if you want), the universe is trying to help us out by not trying to tell us that we have to be 5% STO, for example.
