Random Ra Material Questions

[andreazzi]

Yes, we indeed have different understandings of the text. But you must know that the Milky Way contains at least 100 billion planets, and this is a minimum, so, the 67,000,000 planets Ra mentions as having "aware life" are not the total planets in the galaxy, and thus the other planetary spheres are not part of the densities at least at this moment.
...

You are making the assumption that the "galaxy" Ra spoke of is the Milky Way galaxy. It seems there were some confusion of terms that Don noticed later in session 16 after Ra's answer of 67m in 16.26. From 16.33-36.
16.35
"...
The galaxy term must be split. We call galaxy that vibrational complex that is local. Thus, your sun is what we would call the center of a galaxy. We see you have another meaning for this term."

So it seems the galaxy Ra was referring to in 16.26 is actually the solar system. Then you may say but solar system has only 9 planets..., well, maybe Ra consider each rock in the asteroid belt circling the sun a planetary body.

What I'm not sure is after Don explained what the term galaxy meant to him, whether Ra started to use Don's definition when using the term galaxy again.

This also would explain discrepancy of 25% and 10% Siren noticed. 25% was said before the correction, thus referring to the solar system; 10% was with regard to the Milky Way galaxy, as Don specified in his question.

Yes, you are right. The term galaxy only was normalized in question 16.36 but Don uses the term "galaxy of stars" in question 16.26 so it is quite difficult to imagine Ra refering to the solar system in that question.

Again we must hold on to assumptions!

Ra sees "galaxy" as an ambiguous term and clearly do not see galaxy as we definite it, for we would not call something containing only one or several solar groups a galaxy. It seems when we use the term galaxy, we refer to a larger groups of stars than Ra would.

This may be the key point, for Ra may use the term galaxy also refering to a group of star systems. Anyway, we must always bear in mind that these concepts are very delicate given Ra's difficulties with numbering and specifically the concept of galaxy.
