Then, that very same knowing - that solid ground - can dissolve before my very eyes, and another thing emerges upon which I may stand. And there, I see, gosh, perhaps I didn't know that original thing after all.
I see my knowing as it changes, evolves. It is quite dynamic for me. I seemingly hop from solid ground (knowing) to another patch of solid ground.
One of my favorite images from Quo is that we may find our footing in mid-air.
Yes - the learning is a process that never ends.
So knowing is always a 'snapshot' of the current moment.
That's the way of individual progress.
The knowledge delivered from Ra / Q'uo has (only) a wide / outer focus.
There are many other sources that are much closer to the details of this life and time now.
Rudolf Steiner presents a 'story' that shows, that this period of development has the main function to develope the intellect.
The humans where much more aware about the connection to nature and the self before, without a developed intellect.
Now the humans encountered the maximum peak of intellect, forgetting the other side / polarity / self.
The next task is to consolidate both sides.
(This is a really short and incomplete summary.)
What i want to say is that the 'choice' is maybe the primary goal of an outer view.
But with a closer focus of the deveopment there are much more goals that have to be mastered, specially our human intellect.
The 'Elite' sees this as a proof of intellect (too) and who is not able to master it, has not to survive in her eyes.
The life has been wrapped in a complete fiction by the 'Elite' in order to instrumentalize people for their own purposes and to keep them from their actual life plan.
This fiction is very complicated and elaborately designed, but it must be understood to be able to break through it.
