Basis of Ra Material Interpretation and Focus of Law of One Study

[Shin'Ar]

Shin'Ar, you might have missed it, but the description of sub-forum "Archetypes of Mind, Body & Spirit" is:

A sub-forum dedicated to the study and discussion of the archetypes of spiritual evolution as presented in the Law of One material.

In regards to whether Law of One material, given to us by Ra social memory complex, is a philosophy, five books or a hot dog, is a discussion that I thought that we already had...

Well then, to place a subforum within a forum that is ruled to be

"'Discussion and questions in this study forum should be directly related to Law of One material. Whether asking a question or writing a thesis, whether writing about the chakras, physics, or Zach Galifianakis, OR THE TAROT,all posts should be tied into, and make reference of, and be about the information within the Law of One books in some fashion."
SEE MY EMPHASIS IN BOLD

is probably not a good idea.

After this discussion, I thought that we, as a community, agreed that Law of One can have many messengers/teachers, but that we here, on Bring4th, are discussing the material which was given to us by Ra. I even believe that this whole discussion then proceeded into changing the name of this forum from "Strictly Law of One" into "Strictly Law of One Material".

I believe you're right Ankh, I love that name by the way, just had to say that, and I did elude to someone speculating on the need to change that titel so it does not suggest that The Ra Material's speculation of The Law of One, is actually The Law of One. I just cannot recall who that was.

Either way, as you can read in the description of the "Strictly Law of One Material", it does say: "...and be about the information within the Law of One books in some fashion."

It is not my judgement call to make whether this and/or other threads are being derailed when other teachings/philosophies are being discussed which have nothing to do with the Ra material. But I do want to believe that this is the only little section where Ra material can be discussed in peace.

That is your opinion and you have your reasons for thinking that way.

However it is my thinking that in order to allow for freedom of individual thoughts on any topic, tolerance of how other's offer their perspectives and experiences around the topic must be offered as well.

If all we are doing is discussing the words of the material without considering how they relate to our own understanding, then we are also limited to how we are able to interpret those words. Is interpretation not a matter of discerning the actual reason for the words in the first place? If I think that the Ra group attempted to make an interpretation of The Tarot, or any topic, then I must also consider the sources and reasoning behind their effort as well. And it is my opinion that the Ra Group is attempting to interpret The Tarot from a source similar to my own, and for that reason, that source and my interpretation is both meaningful and appropriate to the interpretation as a whole.

If all we are doing is trying to offer our own opinions and interpretations of the Ra Group's interpretation, while avoiding our own thoughts on the topic, then all we are really doing is reading another Bible and commenting on our own interpretations with the ease of having no other intrusion of our own interpretations.
