If we give it that, then that is what it has. We could also view each as a manifestation of Minds, and therefore congruency is irrelevant as both represent how Mind contructs the 'beyond' and its connection to the 'beyond' (or Higher realms)
Right-o!

Ra is just Ra being Ra. Just because Ra is a nonphysical being greeting us from sixth-density does NOT mean that they are infallible, or that it would be wise to believe in their words when they run contrary to our own inner knowing. Remember, Ra is teach/learning, too! And every good teacher wants their student to eventually surpass them in understanding, right?
At least it would appear that Q'uo took a lesson from Ra and now includes a precautionary statement before each transmission reminding the reader/listener to discard any information that is not deemed congruent with their own inner wisdom.
Quote:Ra: I am Ra. The path of our learning is graven in the present moment. There is no history, as we understand your concept. Picture, if you will, a circle of being. We know the alpha and omega as infinite intelligence. The circle never ceases. It is present. The densities we have traversed at various points in the circle correspond to the characteristics of cycles: first, the cycle of awareness; second, the cycle of growth; third, the cycle of self-awareness; fourth, the cycle of love or understanding; fifth, the cycle of light or wisdom; sixth, the cycle of light/love, love/light or unity; seventh, the gateway cycle; eighth, the octave which moves into a mystery we do not plumb.

Agreed. Although I have raised the subject several times in this and other threads as regards to different ways in which the Ra material could have acquired a tendency toward certain misinterpretations, or distortions, in the reader's mind. And it is in the careful examination of other works outside of the Law of One, that I have come to see more clearly how the Ra contact could have been improved upon.
Specifically, I have discussed the ritual use of the Prayer of St. Francis and the Bible before the contact and how that may have confined the transmission to a "narrow band" of information. I talked also about certain distortions already present in the Channeler's and Questioner's mind and how that can affect the information received. I've pointed out several examples where Ra appeared to have been desirous of offering a more expanded and in-depth discourse on the Law of One, but repeatedly got shut down and derailed into talking about "earth changes" and "prophecies". I've also mentioned several times how I believe the persistent use of the words "should" and "wrong" in the query limited the information that came out in the response.
It would appear that I am one of the very few who has found these lines of investigation to be interesting and/or useful. I have observed many folks to repeatedly pass over these comments, and to continue on with the thread as if it those comments were never made.

There is a certain level of knowledge that is available by simply reading the words of Ra. There is another level of knowledge that is available by comparing how the choice of words in the response is congruent with the choice of words in the query. There is another level of knowledge that is available by taking the Ra contact in the context of the human beings who were involved in the process, and where those individuals stand today with respect to certain issues, namely personal finances, health, and sexual relationships.
And I am sure there are many, many other levels, angles, and perspectives of which I am not yet aware. If we always read the material with the same set of glasses on, then we are drastically limiting the amount of information and wisdom that can be extracted from it.
Oh well, at least it was an attempt:

(Just my opinion, for what it's worth.)
