Ra`s response was to point out the fragility of self, and the consequences of adopting self as identity.
In one`s delusion of self identity as individual, one becomes either copper or tin, which establishes the consequences of negative and positive polarity. This is our tendency`.
Ra omits a great deal of the actual history of the serpent in ancient wisdom teachings, while relating to the specific question of negative thought processes.
Using that delusion of self and individuality, which we tend toward, as adopted wisdom, is to be infected with poison. (To use that which a mind/body/spirit complex has gained of wisdom for the uses of separation is to invite the fatal bite of that wisdom’s darker side).
Here is the same teaching found in the Bible, which although having been greatly misinterpreted by many, does teach the same lesson.
(Numbers 21:4-9) - "From Mount Hor they set out by the way to the Red Sea, to go around the Land of Edom; and the people became impatient on the way. And the people spoke against God and against Moses, "Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food and no water, and we loathe this worthless food."
"Then The Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people, so that many people of Israel died. And the people came to Moses, and said, "We have sinned, for we have spoken against The Lord and against you; pray to The Lord, that he take away the serpents from us." So Moses prayed for the people."
"And The Lord said to Moses, "Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole; and every one who is bitten, when he sees it, shall live." So Moses made a bronze serpent, and set it on a pole; and if a serpent bit any man, he would look at the bronze serpent and live."
Their sin against God and Moses, (against Creator and Process), was the greed of identifying with their self alone; ignorant self-satisfaction in their fragmented state of being, in defiance of The Whole.
Acknowledging self as either tin or copper, male or female, one aspect of a dual natural state of being.
The cure to that poisonous venom was the harmonic blending of the two; brass.
The Serpent was not to be the focus of this lesson at all, for that was just the ever continuing symbolic utensil for human comprehension.
Rather the focus was meant to be the dual nature of Divine Design and the tendency of man to thwart that by adopting self identity.
This is simply a matter of idol worship; the golden calf or the bronze serpent.
The (mind-body-spirit complex), or the vibrating All.
One can idolize their delusions, their accepted self, or their accepted God, and all will be the penetration of the fang into the flesh because it attempts to dilute the whole into its base elements, and personal tastes. This is the Golden Calf, the pure innocence of the child.
The Serpent, long being the symbol of The Goddess(duality), and ancient wisdom,(Sophia), being made out of the combination of copper and tin, depicted man`s true natural state of being, which we tend to deny, forsaking for the worship of our self grandeur and glory.
What happened to that anti-venom of such poison.
(2 Kings 18:1-6) - "And he did what was right in the eyes of The Lord, according to all that David [see King David] his father had done. He removed the high places, and broke the pillars, and cut down the Asherah. And he broke in pieces the bronze serpent that Moses had made, for until those days the people of Israel had burned incense to it; it was called Nehushtan."
Rather than the true purpose for which it was intended, to denounce idolizing, it had once again been utilized as a tool of worship, and was wisely torn down by Hezekiah.
What Ra wants us to realize is our tendency toward adopting self identification as an entity. But Ra must be decisive in relating that so as not to impede on the many various stages of understanding and comprehensive ability which occur within the human state of being`.
It is NOT a matter of negative or positive energies at all.
It IS a matter of understanding and knowing the True Self as having nothing to do with one`s individual, delusional identification as copper or tin.
