Developing a social memory complex

[Anders]

The solar stream is its own service. So it kind of transcends service-to-others. And notice that Ra actually said that service-to-self and service-to-others are transcended when there is full understanding of the Law of One. I think it's pretty simple, because service comes with separation; the server and the served, the savior and the saved, the healer and the healed.

In the beast stream the idea of service is important, and that we learn the difference between STS and STO. Especially when it comes to developing a social memory complex where service to others is needed as a first principle in order to overcome conflict between individuals. Even a materialistic computer hive mind SMC can be recognized as service-to-self because the computer system serves itself as something separate from the rest of reality.

[Anders]

Service-to-self is very much related to the concept of ego in spirituality (Ra described the ego as a yellow-ray blockage). Aaron Abke has great information about that, and now he has this new video:

[Anders]

Aaron Abke said that there is no separate self. I think of the separate self as a unique and individual viewpoint, but okay the self is not a separate object I agree. And that made me think of how the ego is the main function of the beast stream! Not only individual egos but also collective egos. Our whole human civilization at the moment is trapped in ego consciousness, so the beast stream still today dominates on earth.

[Anders]

Is then the development of an STO SMC simply about removing the personal ego? No, because again Ken Wilber's integral transcend and include principle can apply. This means that, yes the ego will be transcended, and also included!

What kind of ego will we have in an STO SMC? My current guess is that it will be a collective ego, a sense of "we" which at the same time is the sense of "me", a both/and of collective and individual. At the same time, the beast stream ego is essentially a phony construct of separation, so many of the spiritual teachings and traditions about that are useful.

[Anders]

Spiritual traditions talk about different human energy bodies. And a practical possibility is that even in third density those energy bodies will become more capable the higher the sub-density.

To simplify it at the moment I think of it as a single energy body that informs the physical body. And the energy can be called solar prana. This is my way of attempting to make practical progress. And my practice is to sense an increase of solar prana in my body.

Is the idea of solar prana just woo woo? Probably not! For example alternative researcher Nassim Haramein said that there isn't enough energy in the food we eat to run the body, so there is already a form of prana used in the human body.

[LeiwoUnion]

As Ra said, ego is an unworkable concept. I agree with this sentiment and that it is much easier to move forward by dropping the concept altogether and begin from there. This positive smc 'ego' illusion in your mind seems to arise from attachment to this concept. In my understanding it is not such an ego concept but a heighened state of beingness where the seeming separation starts to narrow and the group can see it easier and easier that they are one in mind and spirit due to the desire to grow in a similar fashion. There is no ego in this, just realization and awareness of traveling willingly 'in the same bus', so to speak. Example: You as part of a sto smc collective give your neighbor salt and potatoes, because you notice they only have carrots and pepper in their soup. Does this action arise, because you want something in return later? Likely not, if one is beginning to grasp and align with the Law of One. Then, does the action arise, because you saw that the neigboring other smc collective don't seem to share salt and potatoes, and you wish to show off your smc's 'we spirit'? Think about that.

[Anders]

Ra said that we need to eat food even in fourth density. I believe that's correct. Then what about breatharianism and living on prana? My interpretation is that eating food is not just for energy. Eating food is also emotional stimulation, and that's what I believe is necessary in fourth density. A form of transcend and include of eating food.

"43.17 Questioner: Is it necessary to eat food in fourth density?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

43.18 Questioner: The mechanism of, shall we say, social catalyst due to a necessity for feeding the body then is active in fourth density. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is incorrect. The fourth-density being desires to serve and the preparation of foodstuffs is extremely simple due to increased communion between entity and living foodstuff. Therefore, this is not a significant catalyst but rather a simple precondition of the space/time experience. The catalyst involved is the necessity for the ingestion of foodstuffs. This is not considered to be of importance by fourth-density entities and it, therefore, aids in the teach/learning of patience." - Law of One

[Anders]

I found:

"15.11 Questioner: Can you tell me how you balance the ego?

Ra: I am Ra. We cannot work with this concept as it is misapplied and understanding cannot come from it." - Law of One

And, yes actually, the ego is probably an unnecessary concept. And that it just adds more confusion. It should be enough to stick to only social memory complex and the individual (mind/body/spirit complex).

[Anders]

Ra talked about densities as illusions and especially the third density illusion. In the mainstream today our material reality is usually taken as being the only possible reality with everything material and without higher potential (at least among atheists and in academia etc). According to Ra it's the mainstream view of society which is the illusion and higher densities the more correct perspectives of reality.

This fits nicely with the beast stream as being a limited reality, so limited that it's an illusion compared to the solar stream. Entering the solar stream is therefore a radical shift of how the world is perceived. And it seems to me that one needs to become open to other possibilities than what we are used to and have been conditioned to believe in.

[Anders]

What I call the dragon stream is what will form the world cocoon that allows the butterfly/phoenix to form within it. The dragon stream is a very hard and rigid form of control. Fortunately, just like a cocoon, it's a protective shell outside ourselves.

The beast stream is the caterpillar stage, and that's also a rigid form of control. One main difference is that the beast stream exists within ourselves as tensions and sucks energy from us, while the dragon stream will develop outside us and free us from the tensions.

The planetary quarantine Ra described is a part of the world cocoon as I see it. And then those controlling the dragon stream are what Ra calls the Guardians.

"... I would like to ask, considering the free will distortion of the Law of One, how can the Guardians quarantine the Earth? Is this quarantine within the free will distortion?

Ra: I am Ra. The Guardians guard the free will distortion of the mind/body/spirit complexes of third density on this planetary sphere. The events which require activation of quarantine were interfering with the free will distortion of mind/body/spirit complexes." - Law of One 16.1

[Anders]

What is solar prana? Ra said that everything is made of light, and then the solar prana is the total flow of energy from intelligent infinity that creates and maintains our solar system.

And solar prana also contains higher spiritual energy. And according to Ra we also have an inner light. I'm not sure yet if the inner energy also is solar prana, but the incoming energy definitely is the same as solar prana since it comes from the solar logos, and it enters through the feet and the base of the spine and moves upwards through the chakras (ending at indigo).

"54.4 Questioner: Thank you. I would like to trace the energy that I assume comes from the Logos. I’m going to make a statement and let you correct me on the statement and expand on my concept.

From the Logos comes all frequencies of radiation of light. These frequencies of radiation make up all of the densities of experience that are created by that Logos. I am assuming that the planetary system of our sun, in all of its densities, is the total of the experience created by our sun as a Logos. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct."

... (54.27) Ra: The origin of all energy is the action of free will upon love. The nature of all energy is light. The means of its ingress into the mind/body/spirit complex is duple.

Firstly, there is the inner light which is Polaris of the self, the guiding star. This is the birthright and true nature of all entities. This energy dwells within.

The second point of ingress is the polar opposite of the North Star, shall we say, and may be seen, if you wish to use the physical body as an analog for the magnetic field, as coming through the feet from the earth and through the lower point of the spine. This point of ingress of the universal light energy is undifferentiated until it begins its filtering process through the energy centers. The requirements of each center and the efficiency with which the individual has learned to tap into the inner light determine the nature of the use made by the entity of these instreamings." - Law of One

[Anders]

I found this answer from Q'uo about the inner light:

Group question: We'd like to know how to determine where the inner light that is our birth right in the violet ray meets with the intelligent energy from the logos that is our daily gift of energy that comes in from our base chakra, through our feet, and through the groin area; how do we determine where that meeting place is?

(Jim channeling)

I am Q’uo and greet each in love and in light, my friends. ... At this time we shall transfer this contact to the one known as Steve. I am known as Q’uo.

(Steve channeling)

I am Q’uo and we speak now through this instrument. ... while it is true that there is an hierarchical structure to the energy centers, it is also true that, in a well-tuned being, all centers are contributing simultaneously. So we would caution against attempting to occupy, in your meditations, simply the highest of the energy centers that you feel is accessible to you at the expense of the lower energy centers, ...

The principal effort typical of third density meditative work is the opening of the heart chakra—or the green ray energy center—for only when this center is opened can work in the higher centers be engaged in a way that reflects the polarity we have called service to others.

... The indigo ray is the site of sacred work which one does by invoking the power and presence of the Creator; a kind of drawing energy, if we may so call it, that reaches down from above and constitutes an inspiration and an invitation for the up reach of the energies coming from below." - Saturday Meditation September 19, 2015

[Anders]

As I understand it from the Ra material, true service-to-others (STO) is only possible with green-ray activation. Fortunately, this can be achieved in third density, Ra said: "Having accepted that an harvestable or nearly harvestable entity will be working from this green-ray springboard" (48.7)

It seems that being only nearly harvestable is enough for green-ray activation, which is the same I believe as an open heart chakra in other spiritual and New Age teachings. What I call the beast stream is precisely that of a closed heart chakra. And we may attempt service to others in the beast stream but it will still cause all kinds of conflicts and friction since the wholeness coherence of the heart is missing.

[Anders]

Then how? How to activate the green ray? How to open the heart chakra? I found this answer from Q'uo:

"Q’uo: I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my sister. As you know, the purpose of this experience which each of you shares upon your Planet Earth is to begin to open your heart energy center in unconditional love for all those about you, for this is a choice which is available within your third-density illusion that can become transformative. For each seeker of truth that earnestly desires to begin this opening process, it is the desire and its strength that begins to prepare each seeking soul for this transformation, that which you call empathy, or the ability to feel what another person feels clearly and profoundly within your own being. This is the beginning of the opening of the green ray or heart energy center." - Saturday Meditation September 28, 2019

Green-ray activation can be achieved through choosing empathy. Of course just an intellectual choice of feeling empathy will hardly do much, but it's a start. In the beast stream it's often the opposite case where people feel sadistic pleasure when others are hurt. That's scary! Haha. And it's because of win-lose; if others win in the beast stream it's a sense that oneself will lose, so when others lose that's experienced as pleasure.

The green-ray choice is then to aim for win-win by feeling (true) empathy and to step out of the beast stream with all its win-lose conflicts and frictions.

[Patrick]

Then how? How to activate the green ray? How to open the heart chakra?...

Confederation teaching redounds in the ways of opening the heart. Faith that all is well always, is an important component.

https://llresearch.org/transcripts/issue..._0512.aspx

...Judging not but only nurturing the self, finding out what you truly think and feel and then, without judgment, turning once again to the open heart. Each within incarnation shall make many errors. The illusion was set up to force errors, to bring about helpful challenges. The catalyst that seems so heavy is an expensive gift of the higher self to the self. When one can take this, shall we say, on faith, one has overcome a great stumbling block that stands in the way of the open heart...

[Anders]

My theory is that we already feel the suffering of all others in our heart. And it's the disconnection of the heart that makes us unaware of all that suffering.

The good news according to my theory is that the heart feels the wholeness and that means a peaceful feeling. And then it's possible to open the heart to feel more and more and it will feel pleasant and with the suffering melting away.

[Anders]

Suffering is useful as a catalyst for spiritual development. However there is something sneaky going along with the suffering which is numbness. And numbness is very dangerous and makes the body-mind deteriorate. What Eckhart Tolle calls the pain body activates again and again. Why? My idea is that the pain body is a subconscious attempt to prevent too much numbness.

Tensions in the body-mind become numbed out, and to prevent too much numbness, fits of anger can release some of the tension. The problem is that the tensions and the numbness start building up again leading to new pain body attacks in the form of anger and depression etc.

The pain body is a typical beast stream entity because it produces spiritual entropy. What the solar stream can, and will, do, in my estimation is to remove the numbness along with dissolving excessive tensions. That's a new insight for me, for it means that paying conscious attention to the numbness instead of the pain/pleasure can bring about a deeper healing.

[Anders]

I found that Ra said: "In the case of the scribe we see a weariness and numbness of feelings ensuing from lack of using catalyst designed to sensitize this entity to quite significant influxes of unfamiliar distortion complexes of the mental/emotional and spiritual level. As the numbness removes itself from the higher or more responsive complexes the bodily complex distortions will vanish." (61.7)

Ra mentioned an addition thing about numbness which is that it resulted from a lack of using a catalyst. And here is one quote about catalysts (can be useful for myself and to people new to the Law of One):

"Ra: I am Ra. We observed your interest in the catalyst of pain. This experience is most common among your entities. The pain may be of the physical complex. More often it is of the mental and emotional complex. In some few cases the pain is spiritual in complex-nature. This creates a potential for learning. The lessons to be learned vary. Almost always these lessons include patience, tolerance, and the ability for the light touch.

Very often the catalyst for emotional pain, whether it be the death of the physical complex of one other-self which is loved or some other seeming loss, will simply result in the opposite, in a bitterness, an impatience, a souring. This is catalyst which has gone awry. In these cases, then, there will be additional catalyst provided to offer the unmanifested self further opportunities for discovering the self as all-sufficient Creator containing all that there is and full of joy." - Law of One 34.6

[Anders]

I found a possible explanation for Gigi Young's claim that those in the Antichrist (beast) stream will experience the Christ (solar) stream as painful. When numbness is removed in a separate way it results in pain. That's why the numbness came about in the first place.

When numbness is removed through the solar stream it is removed without the pain since it's done in wholeness. The numbness and the tensions causing the numbness are then removed at the same time.

[Anders]

My idea is that solar prana is both the physical energy and the spiritual energy. I found that Ra calls the spiritual energy vital energy. Q'uo explains it as:

"Questioner: If there aren’t any other questions I would like to ask Q’uo if you would be able to help us better understand vital energy and how it differs from physical energy? And perhaps how the types of things we might be able to do to enhance vital energy in our lives and in ourselves and things that we might be doing that deplete vital energy?

Q’uo: I am Q’uo and am aware of your query, my sister. Vital energy is so described as it is that energy or combination of energies within your mind, body and spirit complexes which are useful for enhancing your life vitality, your ability to recognize catalyst, to use catalyst, to glean experience from catalyst a ... enhance one’s ability to become able to perceive the world around one in a spiritual nature, in a spiritual way" - Saturday Meditation September 17, 2016

This means that solar prana is vital energy plus physical energy. Ra said: "Ra: I am Ra. Vital energy is the complex of energy levels of mind, body, and spirit. Unlike physical energy, it requires the integrated complexes vibrating in an useful manner." (63.6)

[Anders]

In the solar stream vital energy flows smoothly within us. This allows for the development of a service-to-others social memory complex where vital energy flows within and between us.

In the beast stream the vital energy is blocked within us and lots of conflicts and friction in the flow of vital energy between us. So what needs to happen is to remove the energy blocks within ourselves caused by karma, trauma and "beast system" social conditioning.

[Anders]

The caterpillar stage of the earth is dominated by the beast stream and material growth. The COVID situation is of biblical proportion and it has radically slowed down the caterpillar growth. It looks to me like the beginning of the end of the caterpillar stage.

And the beast stream I predict will begin to transform into the dragon stream. This actually means even harder top-down authoritarian control such as a global digital currency with increased surveillance and tracking of people and corporations.

In practice it's a slow development yet fast from a historical perspective. And the dragon stream is the world cocoon necessary for the development of the butterfly stage of the earth. So the dragon stream is only a temporary stage of rigid control.

[Anders]

The dragon stream provides full protection. You can't mess with the dragon. You will be burned into toast! The dragon will only be "slayed" when the new phoenix is about to rise.

The beast stream, controlled by the Orion group, is parasitic. And the dragon stream, guided by the Guardians, burns the beast stream to ashes. This includes burning away the energy blocks within ourselves.

Is there any truth to these fantastic ideas? I believe so. And in practice it can be tested by visualizing the dragon burning away the energy blocks within one's own body-mind. And then check if there are any real effects such as melting away of tensions and blocks in oneself.

[Anders]

One trick to detect the beast stream is to observe one's thoughts and emotions. Q'uo said something about watching those like a hawk. Good advice! And what I believe are "my" thoughts and emotions are usually tainted by beast system conditioning.

For example if I'm worried about personal finances or angry about what someone has done, then that's very likely beast stream thinking! The beast stream hijacks our personal thinking and tricks us to believe it's our own thoughts and emotions.

[Anders]

Are my traumas and karma more important that another person's traumas and karma? From a service-to-self perspective then yes, but from a service-to-others and actually objective perspective, no. And as Dolores Cannon said, we carry around a lot of karma as garbage baggage.

So in an STO social memory complex a lot of that trauma and karma has to be dropped, or else the SMC would become incredibly heavy and bogged down. This also means that it's urgent to remove one's own traumas and karma. There is unique value in personal experiences, yet the overly heavy and sticky personal stuff needs to be cleaned up a lot and made much lighter.

[Anders]

Even spirituality has been hijacked by the beast stream in order to keep the belief in separation going. For example many spiritual believers claim that the physical body is just a meat suit, an avatar, and that their true self is a spiritual soul or consciousness or something non-physical like that. At first and at face value those kinds of claims can appear to be genuine spiritual insights. However, when looking at it a bit deeper the enormous separation in that kind of thinking is revealed.

The law is One. True oneness means that what we call physical, including the biological human body, is the same oneness as what is spiritual. So a lot of what is portrayed as spirituality today is merely beast system teachings of separation dressed up in spiritual clothes.

[Anders]

Ra points out in the very first session that reality is made of thought. That very clearly removes the sneaky duality between materialism and spirituality that often is the belief in third density.

"Ra: I am Ra. I have not spoken through this instrument before. ... You are not part of a material universe. You are part of a thought. You are dancing in a ballroom in which there is no material. You are dancing thoughts. You move your body, your mind, and your spirit in somewhat eccentric patterns for you have not completely grasped the concept that you are part of the original thought." - Law of One 1.0

I believe Ra is correct about that, when looking at thought as the information produced by the Word (that Ra calls the original thought) and its sub-logoi (such as our solar system in the case of earth). That's oneness. Otherwise there would have to be a split between the material and the spiritual, meaning duality. The law is One.

[flofrog]

Absolutely Anders. I specially like Ra's poetry here, " part of a thought. You are dancing in a ballroom in which there is no material. You are dancing thoughts."

[Patrick]

"You are dancing thoughts."

I repeat this mantra to myself very often.

It helps keep me more detached from all the craziness going on. Our dreams can become really crazy sometimes and we are just the One having a dream. So the craziness is "normal".

[Anders]

I found recently that Rudolf Steiner talked about something similar to the Law of One and what Gigi Young has said about the solar logos etc. And that was 100 years ago! Here is a very long video I found and I will listen to at least some of it to see if by true and false spiritual paths Steiner meant the beast and solar streams.
