Positive/negative interpretations of a catalyst

[Tenet Nosce]

the way I read it is that the intent behind it matters.. if your wish to change society stems from orange / yellow ray, aka power issues etc. then it is negative.

That was an excellent explanation, M! Much better than mine! This is how I see it too.

I might tweak this a little to say that if the desire is from orange/yellow ray, it has much more potential to turn negative, due to the propensity for control with those rays. But it need not necessarily be so.

But Ra said that "there are some few whose desires to aid society are of a green-ray nature or above. These entities, however, are few due to the understanding, may we say, of fourth ray that universal love freely given is more to be desired than principalities or even the rearrangement of peoples or political structures."

I think they might mean only green-ray or above, which is why there are so few. If they meant simply inclusive of green ray, I would be inclined to say there are a lot more than a few.
