Here is that quote again: "We are aware that you find our incarnate, as you call it, state of interest." Is there any difference in meaning if it's read as "We are aware that you find our incarnate state of interest?
I specifically mentioned that line in my reply. Ra's disclaimer makes it clear that he doesn't think of things in terms of incarnation, but he recognizes that we do. That DOES change the meaning. There really isn't such a thing as "incarnation," just constantly-shifting states of being, and it's only from a veiled 3rd-Density perspective that the word\concept really has much importance.
Is this an ancillary point? Sure. But it seems a bit cavalier to gloss over it for the sake of simplification, since Ra was presumably trying to provide clues for interested readers\listeners to what the higher-density perspective looks like.
Quote:How about I rephrase the question. Does anyone have a problem with a version of the material existing that has some of the extraneous info in strike-through (considering nothing is left out or even re-ordered)?
I doubt anyone is going to throw a serious hissy fit, if that's what you mean. But as we've already seen, there's undoubtedly going to be a lot of disagreement over which bits are truly unnecessary. You'll probably be looking at a lot of threads like this one, arguing over your changes, if you continue with the project.
But I'm not going to tell you not to do it, if you're OK with that.
