Thanks! To have mirrors on which to reflect back on is most important in the process of realising the self, I think. I suppose I see a distinction there between what it is to work with others versus to serve others or to attempt cohabitation/coexistence with others. To work with others appears to me to convey a more disciplined and focused undertaking, especially in the quote's context and the lead-in questions where Ra speaks to the ceremonial magical stance.
Also, the use of the words 'not well' is most striking to me. Ra does not state that it is 'inefficient' or 'fruitless' to work singly, but that it is not well, as though there is some harm in it.
And then why does Ra specify that this is the case for the positive polarised entity? Does this mean that it does not apply to the negative polarised entity, and if so, then what is the missing qualifier?
