More Positive but Less Harvestable

[Tenet Nosce]

Tenet, I'm so glad you came back. I am reveling in all your posts. WELL SAID! ALL of it! Please stick around.

Thanks! Glad to be here!

Even though I did already address most of the points you brought up, it is good to see that you read what I wrote in the sense that I meant it. So, your interpretation of my words is spot on, just in case anybody was wondering!

I have been studying the Law of One material for over fifteen years now, and while I wouldn't purport to understand every last detail and nuance, I am pretty sure I get the main points very solidly.

At any rate, by this point I would like to thank seejay21 because his posts have acted as the catalyst for me to seek even greater clarity on the Law of One. And so I do have something more to share...

You actually set me up quite nicely because it has a lot to do with what happens when a person runs the LOO material through a Judeo-Christian-Muslim line of thinking.

Not to say that they are totally incompatible. I understand Carla herself operates within a Christian framework of belief. And yet, there are some really important discernments that need to be made in order to understand where Ra is coming from.

The main thing has to do with eschatology, which I will admit I didn't know the definition of until a few days ago. Basically, the term refers to beliefs about the end of the world.

What I learned is that there are two distinct categories of eschatology.

The first, called historical eschatology, is the kind you find in the Judaeo-Christian-Muslim school of thought. Which, I can't help but point out, is decidedly militaristic in its view. I'm down with the teachings of Jesus, but let's face it, Jehovah is a war god, pure and simple.

This is classic Book of Daniel and Revelations-type stuff. In this view, time is conceived of as linear and the entire history of the world is leading up to some sort of cosmic climax, after which we all just live "happily ever after" or in "eternal damnation", according to however one is judged by God.

A second, related idea is that of salvation. Again, most people who were raised in Western society take salvation to mean having something to do with a Savior or Hero who comes and rescues humanity from immanent doom. In some New Age circles, the Saviors are ETs come back to save us.

With all due respect to my Jewish, Christian, and Muslim friends, this is NOT the mental framework which Ra is coming from. And I will admit, that much of my frustration in discussing this topic, and with the world in general, is this stubbornly dogged one-track mentality which insists on interpreting EVERYTHING in terms of Judaeo-Christian-Muslim belief systems.

I just have found that line of thinking to result in some very closed-minded self-righteous people who think that it is just fine to kill another human being for simply not subscribing to their belief system. So sometimes I feel moved to draw a very hard line with these folks. Sorry, Jesus is not coming back. The apocalypse is not coming. The pearly gates are not opening for you. Sorry, you've got it all wrong. You and everybody else who has believed the lies of the "apocalypse" and "salvation" over the last 2500 years. This isn't just my opinion, it is out of history books filled with religious folk who believed that their time was the "end time" and that the Savior was about to come. I say, you've been duped. Again. At this point it is just silly to continue to believe in this horrible lie, and to live in the immense anxiety it produces, and call it a testament to "faith".

Not everybody, mind you, but one would be pretty hard-pressed to find a Hindu, Buddhist, or Taoist, for example, that would agree it is their God-given duty to make war on other human beings for failing to adhere to their belief system. This is because in a very fundamental sense, their concept of salvation is through self-actualization, and not divine grace.

Anyhow, according to my repeated and extensive readings of the Law of One, I have come to the conclusion that the 2012 eschatology that has become associated with it is a mythical eschatology which takes a cyclical view of time.

The Law of One is very crystal clear that no entity is lost in Creation. However, there is a specific time-frame for beings to achieve a particular vibratory frequency which is compatible with the next phase of human evolution. Otherwise, you repeat the cycle. This is not punishment, and in fact is yet another great opportunity for service.

That time-frame is now in its very last moments. Is there still opportunity for people to "wake up"? Absolutely. But for the most part, I view the Western world as filled to the brim with people who have been given every opportunity to choose differently in life, yet stubbornly hold on to their spiritually childish views, based on somebody else's spiritually childish views, which are erroneously taken to be the literal Word of God. Because, you know, God only talked directly to people in the distant past but has somehow since then become impotent to do so.

I can respect their free will to choose to believe in a falsehood. However, I do not have to entertain their beliefs out of a false sense of respect for their religion. Sometimes I feel the Love n' Lighters get a little carried away with their tolerance toward other people's intolerance, especially when it comes to religious belief systems. If we are supposed to "lead the way" into the next phase of human evolution, I believe it will be necessary to create an environment of strong social pressure against violent thinking. Especially at first.

I also think the harvesting process will take a lot of the burden off of the rest of society which is now so tied up in dealing with the minority of people who, not only persist in violent thinking, but have the means to carry it out on a global scale. Most people are ready to move on, but they have been held hostage to behaviors which are not only incongruent with, but antithetical to, a spiritually evolved society. This is not mere sin, but iniquity. (Just to throw in a Christian term)

But there still will be many who teeter in confusion, as one who is recently separated from an abusive family. We will need to guide them. Yes, with love, but also with the wisdom to know better than to allow children to run out in front of moving vehicles.

So sorry, Patton, ol buddy, ol pal, that the war thing didn't work out for ya. I'll catch you next time around. Or not. Good thing for the warmongers is that there probably won't be much else to do but hunting and gathering for a long, long time.
