RA Wrote:Questioner: Can you tell me how this newly created physical complex was suited to third-density lessons and what those lessons were?

Ra: I am Ra. There is one necessity for third density. That necessity is self-awareness, or self-consciousness. In order to be capable of such, this chemical complex of body must be capable of abstract thought. Thus, the fundamental necessity is the combination of rational and intuitive thinking. This was transitory in the second-density forms operating largely upon intuition which proved through practice to yield results.

The third-density mind was capable of processing information in such a way as to think abstractly and in what could be termed “useless” ways, in the sense of survival. This is the primary requisite.

There are other important ingredients: the necessity for a weaker physical vehicle to encourage the use of the mind, the development of the already present awareness of the social complex. These also being necessary: the further development of physical dexterity in the sense of the hand, as you call this portion of your body complex.

Questioner: Will you go ahead and comment on this?

Ra: I am Ra. The lobes of your physical complex brain are alike in their use of weak electrical energy. The entity ruled by intuition and impulse is equal to the entity governed by rational analysis when polarity is considered. The lobes may both be used for service to self or service-to-others. It may seem that the rational or analytical mind might have more of a possibility of successfully pursuing the negative orientation due to the fact that in our understanding too much order is by its essence negative. However, this same ability to structure abstract concepts and to analyze experiential data may be the key to rapid positive polarization. It may be said that those whose analytical capacities are predominant have somewhat more to work with in polarizing.

The function of intuition is to inform intelligence. In your illusion the unbridled predominance of intuition will tend to keep an entity from the greater polarizations due to the vagaries of intuitive perception. As you may see, these two types of brain structure need to be balanced in order that the net sum of experiential catalyst will be polarization and illumination, for without the acceptance by the rational mind of the worth of the intuitive faculty the creative aspects which aid in illumination will be stifled.

To believe otherwise indeed may retard ones growth in 3D.

Quantum Wrote:I therefore strongly suggest that disagreement, challenge, and exploration through inquiry is a prerequisite for those more inclined to abstract, which is equally a powerful prerequisite for spiritual growth and rapid polarization as given by Ra. There are no exceptions. Without intellectual challenging in 3D, all remains flat, textureless and gray verses full of the ridges and bumps and color and hue of a non-flat-kaleidoscopic-non-gray-scape. Abstractly challenging is more than simply a philosophical predilection in 3D.

Quantum Wrote:1. Are there any other such pearls in the LOO literature that specifically point a finger towards Rapid Polarization?

Ra, Book I, Session 10 Wrote:Questioner: While an entity is incarnate in this third density at this time he may either learn unconsciously without knowing what he is learning, or he may learn after he is consciously aware that he is learning in the ways of the Law of One. By the second way of learning consciously, it is possible for the entity to greatly accelerate his growth. Is this correct?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.

Questioner: Then although many entities are not consciously aware of it, what they really desire is to accelerate their growth, and it is their job to discover this while they are incarnate. Is it correct that they can accelerate their growth much more while in the third density than in between incarnations of this density?

Ra: I am Ra. This is correct. We shall attempt to speak upon this concept. The Law of One has as one of its primal distortions the free will distortion, thus each entity is free to accept, reject, or ignore the mind/body/spirit complexes about it and ignore the creation itself. There are many among your social memory complex distortion who, at this time/space, engage daily, as you would put it, in the working upon the Law of One in one of its primal distortions; that is, the ways of love. However, if this same entity, being biased from the depths of its mind/body/spirit complex towards love/light, were then to accept the responsibility for each moment of the time/space accumulation of present moments available to it, such an entity can empower its progress in much the same way as we described the empowering of the call of your social complex distortion to the Confederation.

Questioner: For the general development of the reader of this book, could you state some of the practices or exercises to perform to produce an acceleration toward the Law of One?

Ra: I am Ra.

Exercise One. This is the most nearly centered and useable within your illusion complex. The moment contains love. That is the lesson/goal of this illusion or density. The exercise is to consciously see that love in awareness and understanding distortions. The first attempt is the cornerstone. Upon this choosing rests the remainder of the life-experience of an entity. The second seeking of love within the moment begins the addition. The third seeking empowers the second, the fourth powering or doubling the third.

As with the previous type of empowerment, there will be some loss of power due to flaws within the seeking in the distortion of insincerity. However, the conscious statement of self to self of the desire to seek love is so central an act of will that, as before, the loss of power due to this friction is inconsequential.

Exercise Two. The universe is one being. When a mind/body/spirit complex views another mind/body/spirit complex, see the Creator. This is an helpful exercise.

Exercise Three. Gaze within a mirror. See the Creator.

Exercise Four. Gaze at the creation which lies about the mind/body/spirit complex of each entity. See the Creator.

The foundation or prerequisite of these exercises is a predilection towards what may be called meditation, contemplation, or prayer. With this attitude, these exercises can be processed. Without it, the data will not sink down into the roots of the tree of mind, thus enabling and ennobling the body and touching the spirit.

[quote=3D]This may be off topic, but I'm a little confused by your choice of the juxtaposition of s/t and t/s in this reference. It would seem to me that the abundance of peace was in t/s prior to our veiled incarnation in this s/t. Did I miss your point here, or simply detect a trivial typo? (If the latter, please forgive my pointing it out.)

βαθμιαίος Wrote:I think you are misreading the quote from Ra, or at least mis-emphasizing one part of it over the rest. It's not about the primacy of abstraction -- it's about the primacy of balance. Yes, abstraction is necessary for third density. But in this quote Ra is saying that the key to polarization is balance between the intuitive and the rational minds.

3D Wrote:Gathering of eggs. An interesting analogy. I am stuck with images of us all running around with Easter baskets looking for the festive ova. Is one of them perhaps golden? But wait! Gathering Easter eggs is not arduous, do our explorations in 3D really need to be? Is this not a labor of love and exploration of our many subtle, fascinating facets?

3D Wrote:Not to quibble about interpretations of Biblical quotes, but I read this passage slightly differently. As I see it, there were actually two trees in the Garden of Eden: The Tree of Knowledge and the Tree of Life. God instructed Adam and Eve not to eat of the fruit of the tree of knowledge (of good and evil). He actually never gave them directions regarding the Tree of Life. God was conveniently mute on this topic, because it was not pertinent until after they had eaten of the tree of Knowledge. Only then, when their world changed from monochromatic to dichromatic (or should I say dichotomatic), was it important that they be separated from tree of Life and hence exiled from the garden of Eden.

3D Wrote:I think I can see where you're heading with this effort. In essence you are making a call for those that wish to participate in efforts that can rapidly increase their polarization during the growing dusk of Earth's 3D existence. Am I on target here, dear friend?

Lavazza Wrote:So how exactly does intellectual thinking, challenging others established thought-patterns, friendly debate and abstract contemplation help us with polarizing towards STO (or STS)? Granted I relish a good debate and will seldom turn down the opportunity. But the practice seems better suited to a fifth density entity whose goal is to master Wisdom.

(08-20-2009, 12:30 AM)Quantum Wrote: Once understood as an exercise, and then as a norm, then one may marry it together with the faculty of intuition for balancing. As there may exist no shortcuts, who needs mind expanding drugs were one to engage in expanding the mind through the mind. This I suspect is one of the powers within our grasp to polarize more rapidly.

Now imagine it to be a holographic representation in actual 3D where one may actually walk around the image itself. Now imagine the image as not an object but "as a thought or concept instead", filled with the wonder of intelligence and information. Now in the same vein, imagine this thought as a 3D image on a 2D computer screen rotating it this way and that. And now imagine again this thought as a full holographic image wherein you can actually walk around it physically.

Session 49 Wrote:The type of meditation which may be called visualization has as its goal not that which is contained in the meditation itself. Visualization is the tool of the adept. Those who learn to hold visual images in mind are developing an inner concentrative power that can transcend boredom and discomfort. When this ability has become crystallized in an adept the adept may then do polarizing in consciousness without external action which can effect the planetary consciousness. This is the reason for the existence of the so-called White Magician. Only those wishing to pursue the conscious raising of planetary vibration will find visualization to be a particularly satisfying type of meditation.

Isn’t opening your heart an intutive process? I understand the need for balance, but suspect that the greatest leap

Dear Quantum,

It sounds like you are talking about what might be called visualization rather than analysis or abstraction. The quote you referred to earlier is about balancing left (analysis) and right (intuition) brains. What you are talking about here is, to my mind at least, something quite different and far more interesting. It summons up for me this quote from Ra, also from session 49, which also mentions polarizing

It is perhaps less trusted for exactly the reasons that Ra suggests as regards its unreliability, i.e. vagaries.

Perhaps it may best be stated that the faculty of intuition should not be the foundation upon which abstraction is layed, but that instead abstraction being the more reliable may be the foundation upon which then intuition may layed, thus granting greater power to the adept for it.

Although we quite naturally understand what the word balance means, what indeed does balance mean in this context? One typically might assume balance to almost always mean 50/50. In this case, as in many others, I think not. In this case ponder the possibility of inferring as an example, three parts intuition to thirty parts abstraction to create the balance between the lobes, as opposed to jumping to the conclusion that it means 50 parts of one to 50 parts of the other. One spoon of curry is plenty to the pot less you burn your senses with thirty. See my point?

Q

Q’uo Wrote:Those situations in life which are rich in opportunities for those who wish to polarize always have to do with choosing love over fear. As we have said before through this instrument, it is well to ask the self when faced with a challenge, “Where is the love in this moment?”

When that question is asked, there are times that you can see no love in the situation. This creates the opportunity for you to open your heart and allow the Creator’s love to move through you, so that the love in this situation has come through you. It is not a discipline in which you must express what you know as much as it is a discipline in which you allow yourself to become a lighthouse, cleaning the lenses of your lantern so that there is no hate or jealousy that is clinging to you, so that you have become transparent in your personality. For you cannot love the world of your own self. You shall surely run out of love quickly, for the love of the mind and the human heart is finite. Yet the love of the one infinite Creator is, itself, infinite.

Thusly, polarizing towards the positive is, in some part, a matter of gently moving yourself out of the way of the light that flows through you. It is a great collaboration, my brother, for it is not unimportant that you yourself, in your humanness, love. This love that you have colors the light of the infinite One in beautiful colors made of your personality, your choices, your quirks, your uniqueness. As you bless the light that flows through you, you bless the world and in your way you are lightening the consciousness of Planet Earth. It is, indeed, the greatest service that any can offer, that service of allowing the light to shine through the personal self and out into the world.

Can you claim some credit for doing this? Not at all. It is your personal, intimate and secret gift, offered from the mystery and the depth of your own open heart. And yet, once offered, it shall color your whole life and make of it a great adventure.

When the next time of decision comes to you, my brother, slow yourself down. Move into your open heart and allow the full riches of the catalyst involved to flow through you. Positive polarity is not a matter of ignoring anything. It is not a matter of choosing to let the shadow side slide and focusing on the positive. It is a matter of asking for a viewpoint that sees the wider and more comprehensive picture of the situation.

As this instrument would say, it asks you to dolly back, [4] to pull the camera of your attention backwards to a place of observation which calls upon the highest and best within you. It calls upon your guidance. It calls upon your awareness of who you are and why you are here. And it calls upon the memory of which we spoke earlier, invoking that decision that you made at the outset to serve the one infinite Creator by polarizing towards service to others.

Lastly, in order to accelerate the pace of evolution we would encourage that which is called a “sense of humor” among your people, and what we may call a sense of proportion. Remember, as this instrument would say, “You are but dust and to dust you shall return.” [5] Remember that the glory that moves through you asks you not to be glorious but only to be an instrument. Let the Creator play you. Your job is to stay in tune. Therefore, tune yourself with memory, with affirmation, with mantra, with all of the tools and resources that you find helpful.

And, my brother, when you fail to remember all these things and feel that you have “crashed and burned” in service-to-self-ness, let the dust settle. Take yourself up. And know that it shall be a new day as soon as you forgive yourself for being human. There is never an ending and never a failure to one who is on the path of positive polarity, because every morning is a new life. You may hit the reset button as often as you need to do so.

As always, my brother, those of the Confederation of Planets are happy to rest with you in your meditation and offer a carrier wave that will stabilize your own vibrations as they flicker a bit. We do not attempt to communicate at those times but merely to be with you and to bathe you with our love.

May we ask, my brother, if there is a follow-up to this query? We are those of Q’uo.

Remember the "one shining moment of inspiration" that Ra speaks of and that everyone has in there signiture? How long is a moment? There is no real polarizing further once polarized, only more complicated lessons, and it is for those lessons that the power to abstract will be of the most use. So I parry back at you my friend, If one can polarize sto in an instant (instant polarization lol) what need is there for rapid polarization? Tell me what you pull out of this little pearl.
