@Jeremy, You've actually articulated a concept I was expressing differently.
I guess everyone has their own reading/learning style. Where you might read a 'streamlined' quote too quickly and lose the meaning; I would read the same quote and come to the same meaning as I would anyways, only quicker.
My reading/learning style of something this complex entails me reading 1 or 2 lines many times in a row until I focus on the meaning. I have this (sometimes annoying) ability to read text, but get absolutely no meaning from it. In fact, I could be reading aloud something flawlessly while having an entirety different train of thought. Sometimes I will read up to 5 pages in a book and realize I hadn't been paying attention to a word of it because I am contemplating a tangent.
It happens especially a lot with the Ra Material because my mind will often go into the same tangent that Ra went on. I will lose the thrust of what Ra was getting at and have to double back to the beginning of the response. If I ignore that snipet of text that sent me on the tangent, I can understand a concept much more quickly because my mind wanders off less.
