Let me say, as a brief tangent, that I do not feel that most harvestable STS entities are nearly as "evil" as this. Indeed, I think a significant number of people in the public eye, as it were, are such harvestable STS entities. In many ways, the actions of a high profile STO and STS entity might even be the same, it is the intent behind the action that makes the difference.
The intent is always revealed, if not sooner, then later. History is proof. The thought exercise of STS has offered a small if not humble glimpse for me to perhaps a clearer understanding of what STS may possibly look like as regards karma. I thank you for this 3D. If I may diverge for a moment, I might offer in kindness 3D, that a thought exercise is best left unjudged. Assuming or even alluding I hold STS in high regard would be presumptuous if not false. It further trivializes the thought exercise, if that is indeed what we are engaging in? To take up the gauntlet as sport, for example, perhaps it would indeed be wise to hold a proficient STS in the greatest and highest regard, in as much as it might be folly not to. I have never met a true proficient STS'er mastered in his art. Nor would I care to. On the other hand, and more to my truer point, as a thought experiment, comparing what one can not hold clearly in thought (STS in my case to some extent), comparatively analyzed to what one can (STO in my case), is a most elegant manner of scientific exploration and examination to deduce, if not induce, a nomological-theory verses a standard cookbook theory on appetizers. It is a common process. Every single bit of this we presently have taken up the mantle for is as an engagement in theory at the end of the day in any case anyway, wouldn't you agree? Keeping always one's eye focused on the ball, it is well to remember that arguing theory is very much like an exercise, if taken too seriously, like arguing over the possession of fake diamonds. It will serve well to always remember that "we simply don't know" as much as "we are not supposed to know". The Logos knew that knowing would change everything. Thus the veil of forgetting. As we are all pilgrims stumbling in the dark, who knows whats truly what?
Back to the sharpness of your mind:
Quote: I said: If one is aware by presence alone of an awakened soul serving in the STO, and that it would be hard to miss, according to Ra, then it stands to reason that it may be as hard to miss an awakened STS'er as well? But it equally stands to reason that he may be more elegant at camouflaging his proficiency much like the wolf in sheep's clothing.

We've all met the people that are simply fun to be around, and seem always at the top of their universe. Examine these and how they use their resources and abilities and I think you will find you have quite a discerning eye.
The STO would have almost no reason to wish to be missed or be deceptive, whereas being stealthy, the STS might have every reason to engage in camouflage for the express purpose in given scenarios, even if only momentarily, to in fact act in stealth, for nothing else but indeed to be missed with intent. As for charisma, I'm sure this is as true as it is not, in as much as charisma is more oft than not defined as an attractor, as though by a divinely conferred gift or power by definition in the theological context, as much as by standard understanding. Many of STS are surely sorely lacking in charisma, as this needn't be a signifier by any stretch I'm sure.
In closing, and this was the purpose for raising the question to begin with, given the Ra material addressed STS at great depth and length all throughout it's teachings, I have cause to believe there was reason. Either this information has been conferred to us by Ra from beginning to end as the express purposes for us to hold STS in high regard, as you define it, or for the express purposes of drawing and polarizing distinctions. There is a learning to be explored in having the courage to tread these conversations of STS verses what might be construed as a more innocent if not pollyanna attitude of focusing exclusively on the STO. "Were it not so, Ra would not have told us so", to turn a phrase. I believe Ra gave us this knowledge so that we might indeed draw these lines of distinction ever more grandly, this towards the ultimate aim of pointing us to the polarization of Service to Others in the abstract.
Quote:Questioner: Can you tell me how this newly created physical complex was suited to third-density lessons and what those lessons were?
Ra: I am Ra. There is one necessity for third density. That necessity is self-awareness, or self-consciousness. In order to be capable of such, this chemical complex of body must be capable of abstract thought. Thus, the fundamental necessity is the combination of rational and intuitive thinking. This was transitory in the second-density forms operating largely upon intuition which proved through practice to yield results.
The third-density mind was capable of processing information in such a way as to think abstractly and in what could be termed “useless” ways, in the sense of survival. This is the primary requisite.
There are other important ingredients: the necessity for a weaker physical vehicle to encourage the use of the mind, the development of the already present awareness of the social complex. These also being necessary: the further development of physical dexterity in the sense of the hand, as you call this portion of your body complex.
Questioner: Will you go ahead and comment on this?
Ra: I am Ra. The lobes of your physical complex brain are alike in their use of weak electrical energy. The entity ruled by intuition and impulse is equal to the entity governed by rational analysis when polarity is considered. The lobes may both be used for service to self or service-to-others. It may seem that the rational or analytical mind might have more of a possibility of successfully pursuing the negative orientation due to the fact that in our understanding too much order is by its essence negative. However, this same ability to structure abstract concepts and to analyze experiential data may be the key to rapid positive polarization. It may be said that those whose analytical capacities are predominant have somewhat more to work with in polarizing.
May we continue forward in the abstract,
