The Great Way and the Tao

[JustLikeYou]

The Great Way is best connoted as that all things are one being within the mind/body/spirit, one way that is without an unknowingness of the self in a certain capacity.

I disagree. If this were true, then there would only be one Great Way archetype and not three. What you have in mind is much more like archetype #22, the unifying archetype.

Once the self is known in the mind it is known in the body and its spirit, for all of these significators are without a knowing of the truest self

This is only half true. One can advance in mind without advancing in body or spirit. One can advance in body without advancing in mind or spirit. Doing so requires careful discipline in some areas accompanied by lack of awareness in other areas, of course, but it can be done. Consider, for example, a person who has awakened a sense of deep love for all the universe and its denizens. Such a person will see herself in others at every turn. She will be constantly in search of knowing herself and accepting herself more and more. But, as many of us have either experienced or observed, the wisdom to act appropriately takes much longer to awaken. Some open hearts never learn the lessons of wisdom and so their bodily environments do not advance much at all--it is these that are in danger of souring. The same cycles of hard lessons repeat continuously in an attempt to curb the enthusiastic open heart so that it does not spill its resources on hostile ground. Ra indicates that the mind must be initiated first. This is true. Generally speaking, one aims at the Great Way of the Mind before aiming at the Great Way of the Body.

It is well to assume that condensation will lead to a muddied understanding but one must see that oneness is the archetype that unites all archetypal conceptions of the One Infinite Creator or the Logos

In the realm if mind, oneness is not an archetype, but a concept. It is pure and simple, whereas an archetype is a complex of simple concepts. There already is a single unifying archetype for third density: #22. Consideration of unity beyond this is no longer a study of the Archetypal Mind because the Archetypal Mind is, itself, of third density, where the paradoxes are not resolved.

Beyond the realm of mind, oneness is not a concept at all; rather, it is the true nature of all that exists. We must be careful to distinguish between concepts on the one hand and being on the other. The first is mental in nature, while the second contains the mind within its infinite scope. What you are describing seems to be the deeper nature of the creation, its being. The concept of this deeper nature is, of course, a consituent part of the Archetypal Mind, but neither is it an archetype, nor does this concept contain the Archetypal Mind the way that Infinite Being does.
