How Do STS's View Other Selves?

[Nicholas]

  Do they have a perverted or reverse view of human development and see destruction as the more expedient way to return to the Creator?  Are they so absorbed in their self to the point where they see others as their play things to get more for their self?  Is it simply a feeling of insecurity? In the words of Seinfeld, "What is the deal?"  What are your thoughts?

Essentially, STS folks view others as pawns or competitors in a game. Ra used the word "chattel" and is a similar reference to how they view other selves in my opinion...

32.2 - ...Can you tell me the difference between orange- and yellow-ray activation? I am going to work up from red ray right on through the violet, and we covered red ray, so what’s the difference between orange- and yellow-ray activation?

Ra: I am Ra. The orange ray is that influence or vibratory pattern wherein the mind/body/spirit expresses its power on an individual basis. Thus power over individuals may be seen to be orange ray. This ray has been quite intense among your peoples on an individual basis. You may see in this ray the treating of other-selves as non-entities, slaves, or chattel, thus giving other-selves no status whatever.

The yellow ray is a focal and very powerful ray and concerns the entity in relation to, shall we say, groups, societies, or large numbers of mind/body/spirit complexes. This orange — we correct ourselves — this yellow-ray vibration is at the heart of bellicose actions in which one group of entities feel the necessity and right of dominating other groups of entities and bending their wills to the wills of the masters. The negative path, as you would call it, uses a combination of the yellow ray and the orange ray in its polarization patterns.

Insecurity plays a role I believe, but I think insecurity in general just manifests as egocentric patterns of behaviour. I think security on the negative path is gained from the success of fooling and manipulating others. Its a feeling of insecurity that drives them on. 

As for destruction, well it is a valuable scenario for STS choosers to offer some alleviation from chaotic environments. On the one hand they would encourage acts of destruction, while on the other they would offer solutions  that can bring comfort, order and the sensation of peace to the chaos. Hence the "hidden hand" metaphor. Both hands are not being shown, palms up. I would imagine that they are attempting a risky game of promoting enough destruction without it becoming too chaotic. A rogue cancer cell eventually destroys itself by destroying its host, so planetary destruction is not on the agenda. Life is a game of chess to them. That's how I see it.
