Ra's Adventures in Wonderland

[Tenet Nosce]

The Law of One harmonizes the polarities in the understanding that "self" and "other" are identical.

Ok. I thought maybe you had a particular viewpoint as to how harmony is achieved. Meaning, possible third density application of the concept wherein "the positive and negative paths must needs take in each other.."

Oh, I misunderstood the question! But it really is just an extension of the response above...

For those on the positive path they must come to accept those on the negative path as themselves. Just like where in 4D, there is a loss of the desire to "do battle with light", the epic "battle between good and evil" would come to a head in the 4th subdensity of 3D, then sort of fade away. It is neither won for "self" or "other", but rather fizzles out as different things become more interesting.

If, for example, zenmaster's proposition that the negative path cannot continue polarization in 3D past the 5th sub-density, that would provide a means for this to occur. What the relatively awakened would observe is a rather sudden drop-off in the "pushback" from the "Illuminati"-types when light agendas are forwarded.

So those on the negative path would sort of fade into the background, and eventually disappear. This would also make for some interesting catalyst for all the "lightworker conspiracy buffs" who apparently have their hearts set on watching the "Illuminati" be dragged through the streets and strung up with nooses. (Very "enlightened" attitude, I know )

The masses, being the masses, wouldn't notice that much of anything has changed, of course.

Now for those on the negative path, this would manifest as the realization that the desire for control can only be pushed so far in this environment. 3D, being a mixed path environment, can never go to 100% control and domination. This would be a big "wake up call" for those who have been intent on manifesting the "New World Order" for all this time.

So what is common on both sides is the realization/understanding that the point of 3D is to polarize through expression of the Self (whichever way that is conceived.) However- and a HUGE point here- it is NOT really for those on EITHER path to attempt to "convert" others to their path, and/or to "save" others from the opposite path.

Remember- increasing the harvest means simply increasing the harvest. It says nothing about a preference for one particular path over the other. Thus the work of the Wanderer is to perhaps influence some to making the decision to leave the "sinkhole of indifference." And, of course, if they succeed in reaching one, they have reached All.

I think the choice is perhaps put at the end of the deck because it isn't conscious, you are who you are, and so there apparently is no choice to be made..the path one walks just is so.

Yes, well what you have stated here is the exact reason why I think it CANNOT be what some believe it is. I would invite you to ponder this deeply: How can the "axis upon which the creation turns (76.16)" be an unconscious choice?

Does that make any sense at all, given what we know about the evolution of free will?

As you and others have pointed out- which I do agree with- is that the "choice" (I would rather call it a decision, but whatever) of which path to polarize upon is, for the most part, unconscious.

We are who we are. (I AM THAT I AM) That decision was already made long before we took incarnation, and programmed into our biases.

The "the laying of the foundation, the establishment of the illusion and the viability of that which can be made spiritually viable (76.16)" is equivalent to the "building and constructing and synthesizing of data culminating in The Choice. (77.12)" This is why Ra called it the prelude to the Choice.

I submit that The Choice must be a conscious decision, otherwise it is not a true expression of Free Will, and thus has no spiritual value in that particular respect.

You keep mentioning the fact that the image of the choice seems to display harmony/neutrality. We know enlightenment involves seeing the beauty of both the darkness and the light. For those on the negative path it must involve gnostic recognition, and those on the positive path, it's the ability to forgive and understand it's all relative.

Yes. I find this to be congruent with my response above. Great way to put it!

Either way, it seems that the image of the choice is an acknowledgement of the unification that must first be needed to provide the gateway for a "choice" to be made, which is what the image displays.

I might amend this slightly to say that the unification must be acknowledged in potentiality, but not necessarily actualized. That is to say:

"It is not probable; but it is ever possible (65.12)"
