Acceptance and Will

[Whitefeather]

Acceptance is a core tenet of the Law of One.

But, what exactly is acceptance?

46.7 ...Control is the key to negatively polarized use of catalyst. Acceptance is the key to positively polarized use of catalyst.

46.8 Questioner: Then as I understand it you are saying that if the positively polarizing entity fails to accept the other-self or if the negatively polarizing entity fails to control the other-self, either of these conditions will cause cancer, possibly. Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. This is partially correct. The first acceptance, or control depending upon polarity, is of the self. Anger is one of many things to be accepted and loved as a part of self or controlled as a part of self, if the entity is to do work.

52.7 Questioner: Am I correct, then, in assuming that discipline of the personality, knowledge of self, and control in strengthening of the will would be what any fifth-density entity would see as those things of importance?
Ra: I am Ra. In actuality these things are of importance in third through early seventh densities. The only correction in nuance that we would make is your use of the word, control. It is paramount that it be understood that it is not desirable or helpful to the growth of the understanding, may we say, of an entity by itself to control thought processes or impulses except where they may result in actions not consonant with the Law of One. Control may seem to be a short-cut to discipline, peace, and illumination. However, this very control potentiates and necessitates the further incarnative experience in order to balance this control or repression of that self which is perfect.

Instead, we appreciate and recommend the use of your second verb in regard to the use of the will. Acceptance of self, forgiveness of self, and the direction of the will; this is the path towards the disciplined personality. Your faculty of will is that which is powerful within you as co-Creator. You cannot ascribe to this faculty too much importance. Thus it must be carefully used and directed in service-to-others for those upon the positively oriented path.

There is great danger in the use of the will as the personality becomes stronger, for it may be used even subconsciously in ways reducing the polarity of the entity.

How, then, are will and acceptance reconciled? How does one choose the STO path while accepting that which is not chosen?

Those are good quotes. Thanks Monica for reminding us of those.

From my point of view, about acceptance, I see that Ra corrects the questioner in emphasizing that it is the acceptance of self, rather than acceptance of others, which matters more in a positively polarized entity.

And about the will, when Ra describes the reducing of the polarity, it is a reference to the forcing upon other-selves when the personality in people becomes stronger and they start thinking that they are right in every way and they start to force views upon others because as they see it, their view or path should be the norm for everyone and, bla-bla-bla. Of course, there is, in this, a loss of positive polarity.

Ra says that positive will does not require to be self-controlled.
So, you want to say to people that you love them? Then say it ...and you may add a little heart.

Much love
