Initiation of the Body

[native]

The pyramid practice seems like a similar yet much greater step: turning off sensory input to allow the mind+body to make a kind of system reset. Not to imply that it's like turning a switch; I expect it takes a lot of intent, time and patience.

Perhaps then it's related to energy work, and being able to use the body to sense and develop inner vision. Because it was also said that in the pyramids, a highly-trained initiate was required to use a crystal to aid in determining and balancing blockages. I can generally feel my chakras, but only once was the sensation amplified where I could feel pain develop when I concentrated on negative emotions.

Now that you mention it, there's this..

The second area of learn/teaching is the study/understanding of the body complexes. It is necessary to know your body well. This is a matter of using the mind to examine how the feelings, the biases, what you would call the emotions, affect various portions of the body complex. It shall be necessary to both understand the bodily polarities and to accept them, repeating in a chemical/physical manifestation the work you have done upon the mind bethinking the consciousness.

The body is a creature of the mind’s creation. It has its biases. The biological bias must be first completely understood and then the opposite bias allowed to find full expression in understanding. Again, the process of acceptance of the body as a balanced, as well as polarized, individual may then be accomplished. It is then the task to extend this understanding to the bodies of the other-selves whom you will meet.

The simplest example of this is the understanding that each biological male is female; each biological female is male. This is a simple example. However, in almost every case wherein you are attempting the understanding of the body of self or other-self, you will again find that the most subtle discernment is necessary in order to fully grasp the polarity complexes involved.

I have theorized before that when Ra speaks of the body complex, they aren't necessarily referring to your own body. In the above that seems to be the case. If work in consciousness requires that we reflect on and accept all outwardly projected personalities, then that must mean we are to reflect on the physical attributes of others also, how that affects our consciousness, and then balance that.

Examples would be:

- Do you immediately make judgements based on looks? "He looks shady."
- Are you more willing to attempt to connect with someone who is "beautiful"? In other words, they are worth your attention.
- Do you disregard those who are not?
- Are you able to look past the illusory body and see the beauty?
