This is one of the "richest" quotes in the Ra material, often quoted. I just posted it in the other thread and realized how Ra says we must balance love and wisdom in the use of the body in its natural functions. I thought about bumping the Ayahuasca thread for this discussion, since it was where we had the more recent intercourse on this subject, but I figured it deserved its own thread.
What do you think this quote means, in context?
I will share what I think it means, because over the past few days I feel I have achieved a deeper understanding of this passage.
Firstly, in context, we must see that Don has asked Ra how to be a healer. This is a very specific task but, one I think most Wanderers resonate with: We want to heal the 3rd density reality so that it is able to transition into 4th density reality as quickly as possible.
The first and most difficult step is learning the mind. Our minds are basically on autopilot 24/7, until we start taking our own "flying lessons". Soon we're spending a few hours here and there in control, and gradually, if we keep up our practice, we can succeed at becoming "full-time" pilots, or at least maybe 36-hour-per-week pilots.
Anyway, my point being that we must decide to "take the reigns" as a higher-density self, to stop the constant, programmed running of the mind and begin to self-edit the negative thoughts that limit us and our reality, and reprogram thoughts of expansion, unity, and healing. This is step one.
Step two then turns this outward, into, how do I see that which I feel inside being represented in the physical manifestation outside of me? Ra says we must balance between love and wisdom in the use of the body in its natural functions. To me, this means working with the energy that is given to us in abundance, instead of trying to alter it to get what we want quicker. Gaia truly provides for us absolutely everything we could ever need - and if you haven't found something yet, it's likely just still hiding. But we humans have the drive to always feel unsated, to need more, the be "efficient" as Q'uo says. But if we want to balance and heal the body, we can't force it, we must just create the space for it to heal itself.
The third, the spiritual part, is not the last part, but the whole part. Through attainment of contact with intelligent infinity (i.e. daily meditation), the spirit is able to unify the mind and the body to work together. This means we can take what we have learned in the "thought realm" (microcosm) into the "body realm" (macrocosm). Sometimes the sentiment here is that one could, and even should, spend all of their effort on the thought realm and none or very little on the body realm. That may be true, but we must take into consideration that we ARE mind/BODY/spirit complexes for a reason - we have come to 3D reality to play with manifestation in these "confines". And also, there are 3rd density entities who almost solely affect change through the thought realm - they are called monks and usually live in total solitude. We have all taken the more social, interactive path for a reason. And with monks, even then specifically it is their act of isolating themselves from a social species that carries weight alongside their actions in the thought realm.
But Ra says that cultivating our mind/body/spirit and then moving through groups is a good service to perform. Presumably, having a high vibration affects those around us in a positive way, by helping ward away negative vibes and such, and by giving people a physical, breathing example of a being at true peace. This is how I understand healing to be performed, by opening a space to allow others to choose for themselves to heal themselves. And no attachment to the outcome means that we shouldn't need to see the butterfly's effects after we've moved the air with our wings - but, just making the attempt to be sure to flutter to air about as many people as possible, while wishing them the best for themselves, for everyone. This attitude takes effort and some conscious recognition to cultivate.
Anyway, this is Law of One Law of Attraction. But, most people don't use the basic Law of Attraction with the efforts to heal, especially not to heal the macrocosm. And I think "healing" the body complex involves cultivating a space where the "natural functions" of the body (physical manifestation) are allowed their expression, with wisdom used to alter them in only the most minor, yet cooperative forms. But before you can invoke wisdom on how to use the body's natural functions, it's really important to cultivate total compassion for the body's natural functions.
These are my thoughts this Sunday morning. I'd enjoy any others that may be had on this quote!!
What do you think this quote means, in context?
Quote:4.17 Questioner: I have no idea of how long this would take or if you can even tell anything about that. Is it possible for you to give me a synopsis of the program of training required? I have no knowledge of what questions to ask at this point. I’ll ask that question in the hopes that it makes sense.
Ra: I am Ra. We consider your request for information, for as you noted, there are a significant number of vibratory sound complexes which can be used in sequence to train the healer.
The synopsis is a very appropriate entry that you might understand what is involved.
Firstly, the mind must be known to itself. This is perhaps the most demanding part of healing work. If the mind knows itself then the most important aspect of healing has occurred, for consciousness is the microcosm of the Law of One.
The second part has to do with the disciplines of the body complexes. In the streamings reaching your planet at this time, these understandings and disciplines have to do with the balance between love and wisdom in the use of the body in its natural functions.
The third area is the spiritual, and in this area the first two disciplines are connected through the attainment of contact with intelligent infinity.
