Quote:Sound waves carry energy. The vibrating source does work upon the adjacent air molecules when it sets them in motion. The energy is passed on from neighbor to neighbor, and finally those molecules next to your eardrum push it aside; thus they do work upon it and deliver the energy to its destination in the form of vibrations of the internal structure of the ear.

The continual competition between restoring force and inertia in any harmonic oscillator can also be described as an interplay of potential and kinetic energy. As the mass moves toward the equilibrium position, the restoring force does work on it, thus increasing its kinetic energy. This energy is withdrawn from the reservoir of potential energy stored in the spring. As the mass moves beyond the equilibrium position and slows down, the restoring force is in the direction opposite to its motion. This means the restoring force does negative work on the mass, reducing its kinetic energy. Another way to say this is that now it is the mass that is doing work on the spring and delivering energy to it.

So during vibration, energy keeps shuttling back and forth between kinetic and potential forms, but the total energy remains the same. In real life, of course, this total oscillation energy may gradually decrease as friction or radiation drain it off intro heat or sound energy.

Quote:27.5 Questioner: It is not necessary to divide it. The definition of intelligent infinity as one part is sufficient. Could you please now define intelligent infinity?

Ra: I am Ra. This is exponentially simpler and less confusing. There is unity. This unity is all that there is. This unity has a potential and kinetic. The potential is intelligent infinity. Tapping this potential will yield work. This work has been called by us, intelligent energy.

The nature of this work is dependent upon the particular distortion of free will which in turn is the nature of a particular intelligent energy or kinetic focus of the potential of unity or that which is all.

27.7 Questioner: Now I think I have extracted an important point from this in that in intelligent infinity we have work without polarity, or a potential difference does not have to exist. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. There is no difference, potential or kinetic, in unity. The basic rhythms of intelligent infinity are totally without distortion of any kind. The rhythms are clothed in mystery, for they are being itself. From this undistorted unity, however, appears a potential in relation to intelligent energy.

In this way you may observe the term to be somewhat two-sided, one use of the term, that being as the undistorted unity, being without any kinetic or potential side. The other application of this term, which we use undifferentiatedly for lack of other term in the sense of the vast potential tapped into by foci or focuses of energy, we call intelligent energy.

28.2 Questioner: Well, we had yesterday arrived at a point where we were considering colors of light. [You] said that “the nature of the vibratory patterns of your universe is dependent upon the configurations placed on the original material or light by the focus of Love using Its intelligent energy to create a certain pattern of… of illusions or densities.” Then after this material you said that there’s further information which you’d be happy to share, but we ran out of time. Could you complete the further information on that?

Ra: I am Ra. In discussing this information we then, shall we say, snap back into the particular methods of understanding or seeing that which is that the one, sound vibration complex, Dewey, offers; this being correct for the second meaning of intelligent infinity: the potential which then through catalyst forms the kinetic.

This information is a natural progression of inspection of the kinetic shape of your environment. You may understand each color or ray as being, as we had said, a very specific and accurate apportion of intelligent energy’s representation of intelligent infinity, each ray having been previously inspected in other regards.

This information may be of aid here. We speak now nonspecifically to increase the depth of your conceptualization of the nature of what is. The universe in which you live is recapitulation in each part of intelligent infinity. Thus you will see the same patterns repeated in physical and metaphysical areas; the rays or apportions of light being, as you surmise, those areas of what you may call the physical illusion which rotate, vibrate, or are of a nature that may be, shall we say, counted or categorized in rotation manner in space/time as described by the one known as Dewey; some substances having various of the rays in a physical manifestation visible to the eye, this being apparent in the nature of your crystallized minerals which you count as precious, the ruby being red and so forth.

This brings up the conundrum of how it got originally tapped from its unformed state, and that would coincide with the OIC being that field and tapping it's self, or a cyclic big bang from a singularity, or other theory. A question would be how the OIC overcame inertia to do so. In the case of the big bang, inherent in that theory would be a force that drives the cycles, but this overlooks how it got started in the first place, or from where the process was derived.

Sound would be a particular manifestation from that field. Sound may even be the love Ra talks about. Light being the wisdom. If love/sound were manifested from the infinite field of intelligence it may have created some kind of organization, such as what is described in String Theory or M Theory—vibrating strings being the smallest units. This further gets developed and refined until we come to a specific use of sound—music. The interesting thing about this is the way music can tap feelings, memories, or simply open the doors of perception. This relates possibly to the idea that sound is love. Love being not of any human description, but a force that organizes.

Quote:...The second and most devastating of the conflicts occurred approximately one oh eight two one, ten thousand eight hundred twenty-one [10,821] years in the past according to your illusion. This created an earth-changing configuration and the large part of Atlantis was no more, having been inundated. Three of the positively oriented of the Atlantean groups left this geographical locus before that devastation, placing themselves in the mountain areas of what you call Tibet, what you call Peru, and what you call Turkey.

To expand a little bit on Diana's idea that sound is analogous to love in some more or less direct sense...there is the idea in Hermetic traditions and alchemy of the philosopher's stone, that can transmute anything (among so many other properties described), leading me to believe that the hermetic references to the philosopher's stone are about love in a metaphysical sense. Perhaps in an analogous physical sense, it may be sound that's the key to transmuting physical elements in an alchemical fashion. Maybe sound is the closest thing perceivable by the ordinary 5 senses to the idea of love, a directly physical manifestation of the idea. Just a thought.

And expanding a bit(but not to derail the conversation too much hopefully), maybe wisdom is indeed tied into light/visual perception, love being sound/auditory perception...perhaps there are other correlations as well? The will seems like a very tactile thing sometimes...perhaps will is related to the sense of touch. All interesting things to ponder for sure.
